Chapter 521: Resignation
"But you've got a lot of stuff."
The elegant hall was painted with a flashy landscape screen standing quietly in the dark and brown decoration, and the moonlight reflected on Xu Yuan's face with the elegant and dim golden lamp, and after pondering for a moment, he spit out this sentence without hurry:
"Even, it's more than you deserve."
“.”
The look in Li Yunqing's eyes changed slightly.
There was surprise, but more of it was unease.
He suddenly reacted to the purpose of Xu Xiang and even Xiang Dang's silence in the court these days.
They have reaped many, many benefits from this feast of carving up.
Through the fault of the Prime Minister's Mansion, many important positions in the court were regained by the imperial family.
Breaking the rules and paying the price is the logic of the operation of power.
The Prime Minister's Mansion provoked the Saint of Lai Sien to put the Great Yan Emperor in danger, which was excessive.
The top officials of the Prime Party were imprisoned and dismissed, which was a punishment.
The punishment has already been offset, and now they want more, and the people with bad rules have become their Li surname Tianjia.
This is where everything deserves to end, and it must end.
But the father seems to want more, and wants to play hooligan against the Prime Minister's Mansion, but from the perspective of strength, their royal family is not qualified to play hooligan against the Prime Minister's Mansion.
"Huh, it's a good means."
With a long exhale, Li Yunqing lowered his eyes and looked at the wine in the bronze vessel:
"Take stillness as the movement, tease the people of the world to applaud, and wait until the world discovers his purpose, it is completely too late."
Xu Yuan shook his head and said softly:
"It's just a simple information gap, and isn't my prime minister already paying such a big price?"
Speaking of this, Xu Yuan glanced at the dark sky outside the window lattice:
"You, but you have completely removed the hand of my prime minister's mansion from the city defense of Di'an."
This is actually quite a dangerous signal.
The lessons of countless times in history and the lessons summed up are telling the world that coups often take place in the imperial capital.
Di'an is the center of Dayan and the center of the Prime Minister's Mansion, the Xiangguo Mansion is in Di'an City, and Xu Yinhe lives in the Prime Minister's Mansion.
Once the royal family wants to do it without warning, no one in the city defense system means that the prime minister cannot react immediately, let alone use the people in the city defense system to make countermeasures.
Li Yunqing shook his head gently:
"Being willing to pay such a big price only means that you get more things."
Regarding Li Yunqing's tentative words, Xu Yuan smiled noncommittally and asked rhetorically:
"So, you're still going to come to the door to ask for someone?"
"If there was a choice, I would say no, but I didn't have a choice."
Li Yunqing's voice was quite resentful, looking at the idle expression of the kid opposite, he was not without envy in his heart.
is also the second generation of the top official of the dynasty, this kid can not only participate in the highest decision-making without any scruples, but also holds a large private army, and he can only be a cannon fodder to lead the charge.
Xu Yuan was not surprised, and said with a chuckle:
"Who told you not to fight all the time?"
Li Yunqing snorted lightly:
"Of course you don't have a backache when you stand and talk."
Xu Yuan grinned and said in a low voice:
"Li Zhaoyuan's recent situation is much worse than yours, but now? Yi Ling's ability should not be worse than him, but unfortunately he is unwilling to take risks. ”
Li Yunqing rolled his eyes and wanted to open his mouth to fight back, but found himself speechless.
Because this kid is telling the truth.
After a moment's pause, Li Yunqing shook his head helplessly:
"Personality is something you are born with, you can't help it."
Xu Yuan took a sip of the spirit wine in the glass, and then smacked his lips.
His physique could no longer absorb the Lingqi in the liquor, and he could only satisfy his appetite.
At this time, Li Yunqing directly changed the topic and said:
"By the way, did we still have a lot of cooperation before?"
"Toeijima?"
Xu Yuan put down his wine glass, and there was a hint of interest between his eyebrows: "Of course I counted, but after the events of that night, you shouldn't need my support anymore, right?" ”
Li Yunqing raised his eyes and glanced at Xu Yuan, and snorted lightly:
"Knowingly, right? Theoretically, this is indeed the case, after all, the imperial capital is almost destroyed, even if it is for the sake of face, the imperial court will pay enough attention to Dongying Island, but the problem is now"
"To the point, don't talk nonsense."
“.” Li Yunqing.
"My brother and my father talked about this in private, and my father promised to increase the army, but the person in command was a commander of the forbidden army, and I became a prisoner."
After speaking, Li Yunqing looked at the beloved relatives and friends opposite.
Xu Yuan's eyes flashed slightly, but he didn't speak immediately.
This change was a little unexpected for him.
It is natural for the emperor to arrange a general who leads the army to accompany him, after all, Li Yunqing does not understand military affairs, the size of the army is large, and the food, drink, shelter and transportation of the soldiers alone is enough to make the layman's scalp numb, let alone march to fight, but it is a little unreasonable to make Li Yunqing from the position of the original commander into a supervisor.
In the sense of the law, this expeditionary force should be commanded by Li Yunqing, the prince.
But after thinking for a moment, Xu Yuan suddenly looked at Li Yunqing and smiled, and said in a low voice:
"Your father really sees your character thoroughly."
There is no other reason, Dongying Island Tiangao Emperor is far away, once he goes to Dongying to gain a firm foothold, Li Yunqing, this kid will most likely play outside, and the monarch's order will not be affected by that set of things.
This is something that Li Yaoxuan cannot tolerate.
In the past, symbolic investment could be regarded as a gift from father and son, but now that the scale is large, the investment will naturally have a corresponding return.
Li Yaoxuan not only wanted to use Li Yunqing's ability to stabilize the situation in Dongying, but also wanted to grasp the actual control of Dongying Island in his own hands.
Li Yunqing sighed lightly:
"Can you stop talking about it here, if you don't raise, there's a high probability that I won't be able to fulfill your appeal over there."
Xu Yuan was silent for a while, and asked softly:
"How many more people will you send to your royal family?"
"My imperial brother said that there will be at least two battalions of forbidden troops."
Two battalions, an establishment of 10,000 people, and the elite level of the forbidden army is a strong army that can be ranked among the Great Yan Dynasty.
After thinking about it slightly, Xu Yuan nodded:
"I know about it."
Li Yunqing immediately asked tentatively:
"How many people can you probably add to me?"
Xu Yuan didn't answer positively, and asked with a smile:
"Li Zhaoyuan can eat 100,000 sect alliance troops without anything, you, as a prince, have natural legitimacy for the forbidden army, and 10,000 people can't eat it?"
"It's different."
Li Yunqing's face froze, and his voice increased slightly: "The alliance of the sect alliance is made up by various sect alliances, and there are too many differentiation methods that can be used, but the imperial forbidden army is monolithic, and there is no comparison between the two at all." ”
"If Li Zhaoyuan sits in your position, do you think he can't eat?"
"If you can choose the easy difficulty, why would you want to go to hell?"
“.”
“.”
The big eyes stared at him for a moment.
Xu Yuan shook his head gently.
He probably understood Li Yunqing's intention to say this.
Although it seems to be a gag on the surface, Li Yunqing is actually reminding him that the situation is changing rapidly, and now the status of the two cooperation has become close to equality.
If I don't raise, I have other options now, I can choose the same path as Li Zhaoyuan, and then you won't have the opportunity to intervene in Dongying Island openly.
"I have sent someone to count the specific number, the army needs to pass through the north when it goes south, and there may be some chaos over there, but after the New Year, I should be able to give you an exact answer."
Li Yunqing smiled and slowly stood up from the futon:
"Then we'll talk about the details then?"
Xu Yuan frowned when he heard this:
"Do you have anything else to do tonight?"
Li Yunqing shrugged helplessly:
"If I don't have a valid reason, I don't dare to ask you, a "dead man", out on the cusp of the storm. ”
Xu Yuan was silent for a moment, lowered his eyes and said in a low voice:
"It seems that your father asked you to come to my prime minister's mansion tonight?"
Li Yunqing straightened the folds on his robe, and slowly walked to the window lattice, the cold wind was blowing, and he whispered quietly:
"Tomorrow is Chinese New Year's Eve, it seems that this year is not going well."
Forty-six years of Jiajing,
On the twenty-ninth night of the year, King Qing ascended to the Prime Minister's Mansion to ask for the princess of Xi'en, and the prince stopped.
The night after, on Chinese New Year's Eve, the Prime Minister submitted his resignation to the Imperial Court.
