Chapter 81: Let others get a piece of the pie
Grasping the lifeblood of the imperial court, at worst, is the capital to speak hard in front of the Son of Heaven, and at worst, it is even a necessary condition for rebellion.
Although Xue Shangshu is now just twisting into a rope with the rest of the family, delusionally trying to compete with the Son of Heaven for power, and has no intention of rebelling, but Rao is like this, it is still very terrifying.
After all, this is equivalent to the initiative in the hands of someone else!
"His heart can be punished!" Chi Xinian sank down and slapped the table angrily.
The cowardice led by the Xue family is really hateful! During the war, they shrank behind timidly, not only did they refuse to contribute, but they always wanted to persuade everyone to be a turtle with their heads.
Now, the war has finally ended, and all kinds of waste are waiting to be rebuilt, and they are thinking about infighting and playing some means of fighting for fame and fortune in their own territory!
"What are you going to do with this?" Chi Xinian asked Yan Chujing's plan with a calm face.
If the family does such a thing, he, the emperor, will definitely not ignore it.
She figured out that if he was going to make a move this time, she would definitely help him. To deal with such villains, she wants to do something from the bottom of her heart.
But Yan Chujing restrained his emotions after groaning, and shook his head with curved lips: "Thank you Empress for helping me find out their purpose, but at the moment, I don't plan to expose this matter yet."
"Therefore, please also ask the queen to help me keep it secret, and never mention this matter in front of anyone."
"You're going to leave it at that?!" Chi Xinian raised his eyes in surprise and looked at Yan Chujing in disbelief.
Can his temper let go of this?
"What if you don't forget it? Everything is just our speculation, except for Chen Jingshan, who can barely be regarded as half a witness, we have no other evidence to prove the Xue family's wolf ambitions. If you make a rash move, you will not only fall into passivity, but also make the family and the party fall back. With his thoughts smoothed out, Yan Chujing returned to his previous appearance of being light and breezy.
He first took a sip of the warm tea before continuing: "However, I will not sit idly by and ignore their ambitions.
"Isn't it because Qingyun Town is important that they can control it to enhance their right to speak in front of me?
"Then I'll make Qingyun Town less important first, or... They will not be able to fully control Qingyun Town for the rest of their lives. ”
"Hmm... Your idea is very good, but I'm afraid it's not easy to implement, right? Chi Xinian touched his chin and frowned.
Whether it is to deprive Qingyun Town of its qualifications as an important town, let the Xue family's bamboo basket draw water for nothing, or let multiple forces intervene to prevent Qingyun Town from becoming the Xue family's hall, it is a good way. But no matter which path you take, it's not easy.
Especially the former.
Qingyun Town's unique geographical conditions are there, he can't move mountains and rivers again, and change the trend of the leylines, right?
"The first method is really not easy, and it also consumes manpower and material resources..."Yan Chujing also had this idea, yes, after thinking for a while, he decided to take care of himself, "Then use the second method, and strive to let others also share the pie." ”
"But who would suddenly think of reaching out to Qingyun Town?" Chi Xinian still felt that his idea was too vain to be realized.
But Yan Chujing has already figured it out.
After a while, he even said in a matter-of-fact manner: "Since no one will take the initiative to pay attention, then let's take the lead." For example, open up a trade route, set that place as an important node or something..."
