Chapter 402: "Counting is Counting"

"Just looking at the current situation, the eldest princess is afraid that she has not fully trusted Xiang Langjun." Gu Yao looked at the note, Li Shengxi mentioned the Hubu Shangshu to Xiang Huai for no reason, although he didn't say anything, but the tentative meaning in his words could not be ignored.

The little emperor nodded, "This should be my aunt's temptation for us and Xiang Huai." ”

My aunt wouldn't talk about this for no reason, and Xiang Huai was probably skeptical, so she summoned her to remind her.

"She wants to do something to Tobe?" Gu Yao speculated with some doubts.

"The meaning revealed by these words is indeed like moving to the other household and winning over the household." The little emperor murmured softly.

"In this case, the saint still has to pay close attention to the household department, lest the household department really be snatched away by the eldest princess." Gu Yao reminded.

The little emperor shook his head, "Since my aunt has the intention to be tempted, once we stop it, it will arouse suspicion, and the previous actions will be wasted." Hubu Shangshu is an old minister who was very trusted by the first emperor when he was there, and people like my aunt are particularly cherished and respected for the people left by the first emperor, and he will not easily touch the old man in the hands of the first emperor.

For the people left behind by the first emperor, it doesn't matter if they belong to her or not, it doesn't matter if they stand by her side or not, as long as they don't stop her and are beneficial to Northern Qi, my aunt won't move them. My aunt, if she hadn't been involved in politics, she might have been able to be a chivalrous man! ”

Emperor Ming Zhang sneered and mocked, if his aunt honestly gave up power and went to the rivers and lakes to be at ease, their aunt and nephew would not be able to go this far.

In his early life, the first emperor disliked stupidity, and even if his brother was disabled, he refused to choose him as the prince;

A-Niang also complained about him, and didn't pay attention to him until his brother had an accident.

The only ones who are good to him are his aunt and brother and sister.

But his aunt turned his back on him for power, and Brother and Aunt were natural allies, and as for Sister A, he also vaguely felt that Sister would not be on his side.

All turned their backs on him.

In fact, he didn't understand why his previous aunt was obviously more willing to be a ranger in the rivers and lakes, but why she changed after a few years of traveling in the rivers and lakes.

The little emperor couldn't figure it out, so he simply didn't think about it anymore, but continued: "Hubu Shangshu is a person, he is very good at self-preservation. knows his aunt's temperament, so he doesn't stand in line, as long as he does the practical things in his hands. In the future, no matter who wins between me and my aunt, he will not be liquidated.

Therefore, my aunt should not move the household book, and if we go to suddenly win over the household department at this time, it is difficult to say that the person who bothers to send it in will only become an outcast, this step can not be taken easily. ”

In fact, Gu Yao was very skeptical that the group of people sent in would have become outcasts long ago, but he did not speak.

"In any case, the household department is very important, if the eldest princess sees that we are unmoved, will she take advantage of the situation to win over the household department?" Gu Yao reminded.

At this time, Emperor Mingzhang's reason why Li Shengxun would not do anything to the household was actually his trust in Li Shengxun's character.

Li Shengxi's character is one thing, but if there is something between Hubu Shangshu and Li Shengxing that the little emperor does not know, then Emperor Mingzhang's guess will be completely untenable.

This household secretary is far from being as simple as others think.

Gu Yao's eyes were slightly gloomy, Li Shengxian may have been something.

However, Gu Yao didn't say this, but changed his words and reminded him euphemistically.

"If it was useful to win over the aunt, why would she send Meng Kun into the household again?" The little emperor said disappreciatively.

Wasn't it because Li Shengxi couldn't win over the Hubu Shangshu, so he sent a Meng Kun in to further grasp the power of the Hubu?

Gu Yao: "."

Sending Meng Kun into the household department is to divide power, which shows that Li Shengxi is very dissatisfied with the power of the household department does not belong to herself, since she has the heart to support Meng Kun, who knows if Li Shengxi will want the household department to make way for Meng Kun after Meng Kun grows up?

From this point of view, even if there is nothing between Hubu Shangshu and Li Shengxi, Li Shengxi's character cannot continue to be believed.

She may be a gentleman, and she may have a deep relationship with the first emperor's brothers and sisters. But once a person becomes a politician, he will never be a gentleman who looks up to the mountains anymore, at most he can only keep his heart. As for the deep love between brother and sister, the first emperor is deceased, who else can be emotionally restrained?

The little emperor is the only sound son of the first emperor, didn't Li Shengxi still have no intention of letting go?

But he didn't say this, and he was no longer surprised by the little emperor's self-pretentious cleverness.

"Even so, the saint can't see the household being gradually eaten by the eldest princess's forces, no matter what the household secretary says, he will eventually get old, and when the household department is still the eldest princess, the eldest princess will definitely support Meng Kun."

Now most of the six departments of the three provinces in the DPRK and China have been in the hands of Li Shengxi, and seeing that Li Shengxing is sitting big, it will only hurt the interests of the little emperor in the end.

"As far as you see?"

"Kaienko. At the beginning of spring next year, we will open another spring festival, introduce fresh talents into the court, and then promote talents to break the current situation. ”

When the little emperor first ascended the throne, he had already opened Enke once, and the next time he opened it, it should be the fourth year of Mingzhang, and next year will only be three years of Mingzhang.

"The name of the dynasty is justified, and when the time comes, as long as the saint finds a reason casually, even if the eldest princess wants to stop it, she is powerless." Gu Yao added.

Li Heng nodded, "In this way, it's fine." ”

In the first year of Mingzhang, although Enke was opened, the power in his hands at that time was not as good as now, and he couldn't do anything on Enke, it was just a routine business.

But now it is a little different, Li Shengxi has accumulated her political power by relying on the help of the first emperor, as well as her own southern and northern wars, as well as the promotion of talents, sympathy for the victims, and compassion for the people.

He is slightly different from Li Shengxi's situation, and his current situation is a bit like the first emperor. After the first emperor ascended the throne that year, he first subdued the internal guards, and then swallowed wolves and drove tigers, destroying the four kings. And in this case, he used the prestige he had accumulated among the people and scholars in the past, as well as the help of a cadre of important ministers of the clan, to temporarily curb the family and obtain the opportunity to divide the political inheritance of the four kings with the family.

Then, he was in a stalemate with the family for many years, and at that time, he continued to recruit talents exceptionally. Until the twelfth year of Hongxing, Li Sheng was married, and the brother and sister joined forces to produce the Mu family, and forced the Gu family to retreat.

It can be seen that it is indispensable to promote talents out of the ordinary.

And now he is in a more difficult situation than when Aya ascended the throne.

When Aya ascended the throne, he was surrounded by wolves, but as long as he was a pack of wolves, it would be difficult for him to be single-minded.

But now he has only one political enemy, and this political enemy has the power of a pack of wolves, which should not be underestimated.
