Chapter 64: Establishing Ministers and Meritorious Ministers (1)

Thinking of this, Ye Yongjia looked worried, and hesitantly put down the book: "Bring him here." ”

I saw that Cai Xianqing was still wearing the clothes he was wearing when he came, and he didn't change them, so he came to Yongjia to make a gesture.

"Mr. Cai, how many days is the weather suitable in Beijing?" Ye Yongjia was a little absent-minded, and his eyes wandered.

Cai Xianqing saw it in his heart, but he didn't say anything for the time being, and replied with a smile: "I've been used to running around for half my life, but I'm not squeamish, these are not problems." However, I have been wearing this coarse garment for four or five days, and the silk and satin at home have violated the ban, and I can't take it out, so I am really worried. ”

Ye Yongjia's eyebrows furrowed, and he sighed: "If Cai Lao wants to change to a good name, it will not be difficult." But it takes a little effort from the younger generation. ”

"I see, it's rare and wow!" Cai Xianqing walked in front of him lightly with his hands behind his back, "My lord is in a bad mood and is also worried about this matter." But I am afraid that if I want to hear from the sky in this matter, I am suspected of acting mischiefly and arrogant? ”

Ye Yongjia didn't know how to explain, so he had to smile helplessly: "My mind was all guessed by Cai Lao. ”

Cai thought that since adults are not easy to speak, they can go to talk to the Hunan people first. Guo's temperament is irritable, and his long-term thirst for fame has not been successful. If I use my official deeds to hook him today, I will not say a word, and I will reap the benefits. ”

Ye Yongjia said: "It's quite reasonable. But this Guoxiang people are other people's staff after all, and if they want to discuss, they have to tell Chen Gongxuan. Now that he is in isolation with me, he must be intent on uniting with us, and it is normal for him to take care of each other in this matter; If you hide it and make it like a plot, you will undoubtedly lose a reliable ally. ”

Cai Xianqing exclaimed: "Lord Ye is really a hero!" ”

Ye Yongjia shook his head: "How dare you, how dare you!" It's Lai Cai's old acquaintance who knows too well. This is by no means a humble word, the younger generation has always been unable to see through people, so they have suffered a lot of losses before and after. ”

After that, I couldn't help but sigh: "I follow the Wan Party and the Lu Party...... And you, you've learned a lot. There is only one word 'human' that I can't figure out. When I was a child, I heard my father say that where there is turbidity, there must be purity, and where there is evil, there must be good. But both are good, but Wei Xia and the two parted ways; is also evil, Lu Fangxuan peeled Wei Chong's skin and bones again. It belongs to the same meaning, and it can be derived infinitely. A colleague once said to me: 'The turbidity of man is sometimes the ...... that cannot be distinguished', but sometimes the boundary is set as deep as a chasm. I really don't understand, what kind of rule can be regarded as this today, tomorrow's this? If there are no rules, how can we discern people? ”

"It's easy to know people, but it's hard to know yourself," Cai Xianqing slowly dusted off his cuffs, "These things are for people to see themselves clearly." What kind of heart you observe others, then they are what they are. Therefore, there is no ever-changing theory, only a little bit of self-knowledge. ”

"Then Cai Lao's understanding of himself is also counted as three points."

Cai Xianqing brushed his beard and said: "The old decay can see far, but it may not necessarily see high. If you really admit the praise, I am afraid that you have already become an immortal and rank in the immortal class! ”

The two laughed.

"Okay, the juniors won't be cranky anymore, take a rest, and I have to see Comrade Chen for you!" After that, he ordered his subordinates to pour tea and go into the pavilion to rest in the shade.

The imperial court is now busy with a more important thing - to pay homage to General Liu. Military power could not satisfy this powerful minister at all, and controlling the government and the opposition was his most ambitious ambition.

Although it was easy to do, it was clear that the mood of the courtiers needed to be appeased, and of course they should not act rashly until the consensus was reached.

The loyal courtiers around the emperor understood that this was almost the last chance to resist. They knew that only the royal family in the forbidden army had reported the important matter to a bold and brave priest - the name of the perpetrator, hoping to use him to keep in touch with the emperor.

Except for Shi Xiushen (who once replaced Lu Yingshan), the rest of the four divisions are all subordinates of the Son of Heaven: Ru Cunzhao is the emperor's nephew; Taisu is the emperor's fourth uncle; Rong Qing is the emperor's younger brother. The trio soon got together to discuss how to save the situation. Cun Zhao had the most ideas, so he discussed: "Your Majesty lives in the deep palace and does not come out, and he is surrounded by Liu Dang's minions, eyes and ears, which is difficult to approach. It's better to ask for the prince. ”

"King Xu was set up by a willow thief, and His Majesty has never loved him," Tai Su said in the tone of an elder, "This man can kill his brother and betray us, so we must not tell him!" ”

"Fourth uncle," Rong Qing persuaded, "Cunzhao said so, he should have his own meaning. ”

"Yes, please calm down and listen to the analysis of the juniors," Cun Zhao wiped the beads of sweat from his forehead and continued, "Although the prince was put on the throne by the willow thief, he was only one step away from the imperial power, and he would not want his power to be constrained in the future, and he would definitely not help outsiders do things." This is the only person who can be trusted, and the two elders will allow it! ”

Taisu was persuaded by him, and everyone immediately hit it off and sent a junior colonel to visit the East Palace.

At this time, the East Palace had long been moved, and it was not the palace where the prince lived. Because this King Xu, that is, the current crown prince, has often been restless since he entered the East Palace, and he always heard strange birds crying at night, afraid that his brother's ghost was haunting, so he proposed to move elsewhere. The emperor moved the East Palace to the east of the Imperial Garden, facing the wall of his dormitory.

At this time, after the prince listened to the little school's edict, he was terrified in his heart, so he sent it back again and again, summoned the attendant Lan Yuan, paced and said: "My brother participated in the rebellion in the past and ended up in a tragic death; Now that another catastrophe has struck, and the situation is so similar, how can I not learn from it? ”

Lan Yuan said: "Since His Highness wants to save his life, he can report the forbidden people. ”

"This ......" the prince choked on these words, turned away, and sighed in his back to the sky.

"So, His Highness is thinking of seizing power," Lan Yuan saw him react like this, and the corners of his mouth raised strangely, "I'm just afraid of dying like this." ”

"Yes, yes, yes!" The prince hurriedly turned around, didn't say a word, and fell straight to his knees, "Ask Lan Shi to teach a lonely plan!" ”

"It's a bad thing," Lan Yuan helped the prince up unhurriedly, "Lan does have a plan, but it can be safe." That is, to arrest these so-called loyal ministers one by one, and let His Highness get out of trouble and take charge of the government by himself. ”

"Is it too spicy?" The prince touched his chin and thought.

"The meaning of those loyal ministers is to let Sheji belong to your family again, and since you died for this, it is the so-called death that you deserve, what is the prince worried about?"

"Good!" The prince's heart knot was untied as soon as he said, "Please tell me, sir, what should I do?" ”

Lan Yuan leaned into the root of his ear and muttered a few words repeatedly, making the prince's eyes light up.
