Chapter 64: Establishing Ministers and Meritorious Candidates (2)
After making up his mind, Lan Yuan spoke on behalf of the crown prince and ordered someone to tell Cun Zhao and the others: "Donggong has always had this ambition, but it is difficult to predict the will, and I don't know whether it will succeed or fail, I hope that the princes can consider it first, and when the time is ripe, His Royal Highness will help him." ”
Cun Zhao received the order, and he was really worried in his heart, and when he turned around, he sighed in front of Taisu and Rong Qing.
Taisu asked the reason, then slammed the table angrily, his face turned cold, and he didn't say a word.
Rong Qing seemed to think of something, he got up quickly, propped his hands on the table, and looked at them with his eyes: "If the prince is unwilling to make a move at this time, then it will bleed." ”
Tai Su hurriedly touched his body: "Whose blood is it?" ”
"Fourth uncle, it doesn't matter whose blood is shed," Rong Qing shook his head, "The important thing is to put on a tough posture, so that Liu Zhennian can't come to the stage!" His position as prime minister naturally cannot be kept. ”
The two looked at each other and said in unison, "I want to hear about it!" ”
"Liu Zhennian has always been resolute, and he is cautious in this matter, what is he afraid of? Isn't it just that I'm afraid of offending the Manchu doctors? If the willow thief wants to ease, we will not ease. For example, if you go to win over some loyal martyrs and speak against paying homage to the prime minister, you will bring the situation to the point where it is incompatible. One, Liu Dang may be killed, twenty, or hesitate, thirty, and dare not be. ”
"I don't know where you got so many loyal ministers?" Tai Su said, "Besides, everything can't be so easy. In case the fight is difficult to solve, and it will continue year after year, it will surely cause chaos in the world! ”
Cun Zhao deliberated: "My cousin, don't forget that they still have Yan Wen's knife. How many people did Yan Xiang kill last time, why are they still safe? Isn't it just because his family is a famous county! We find a lot of people, and they look fierce, but in fact they are useless. ”
"Yes, there is also a Gui Fu in the Liu Party, who is even more Confucian for a while, and his words carry a lot of weight." Taisu was also persuading him to be calm.
Rong Qing suddenly seemed to fall apart, and his whole body collapsed there, motionless.
Cun Zhao saw the map resting in the corner, shining in the light of the candlestick, and suddenly he had a flash of inspiration, pushed away the table and chair, and made a few real comparisons on the old map, and then, his fingers trembled excitedly.
"Coincidentally," Cun Zhao waved his sleeves and held up the candlestick, "The Gui family and the Yan family are both northerners, and the people under the annual account of Guanliu Town have very few wealthy families in the south, and it is difficult to have the power to appeal." Why don't we embrace a few southern wealthy clans to oppose each other and at the same time divide the southern scholars in the Liu Party array? ”
Rong Qing shouted three wonderful words, leaned over and explained to Taisu, who didn't understand: "You don't know, Cunzhao is really talented in this later life!" No matter how capable he is of the Yan and Gui clans, Weide will only stop at the Yangtze River. Moreover, the interests of the north and the south are not quite the same, and they can be used to turn their forces into power, so that one person in the court is enough to play the role of 30 loyal ministers! ”
Taisu nodded and smiled: "I grew up in the capital since I was a child, I don't know the scenery of the south, I thought that there was a family in the world, who knew that there was such a famous hall among them!" You young people can still be relied on! ”
"I wonder if it's better to ask for help?" The three of them immediately gathered in one place.
"Gao Jizhi of the Ministry of Officials, Xie Zanyi of the Yushitai, treats the Liu Party lukewarmly on weekdays, and has a false reputation in the world, all of which can be used."
"I don't know who to tell me?"
"You have to be a bold and careful person, and you can't add fuel to the fire."
"I think ......"
"Ladies and gentlemen, are you in there?"
Just as the words were getting to the point, Shi Xiushen's impatient knock on the door interrupted all this.
Tai Su's face turned red with annoyance, and Cun Zhao smiled vigilantly and said in a low voice: "I see that this person fits everything." ”
"Big ......"
Before Shi Xiushen could shout the second sentence, the door inside suddenly opened, Cun Zhao stood in front of him, and the other two stood in the shadows.
"Your Royal Highness," Shi Xiu bowed cautiously, "Your Majesty said, tonight's shift should be on duty, and it is your turn to be in charge of Dongying, so let me tell you to prepare quickly." ”
"Master Shi patrolled all night yesterday, and it was hard to think about it, so let's rest today."
"Thank you for your concern." Shi Xiushen waved his hand, and then entered the house to take off his armor.
"But before that, we need Shi Si Ban to help us deliver a message." Cun Zhao was still leaning in front of the door and said behind him.
"Ahem," Taisu and Rong Qing were about to speak, "It's not just Cunzhao's meaning. ”
Shi Xiushen hugged the helmet, swept his gaze at the three of them, immediately understood, and said with a smile: "Adults can be useful to me, just mention it." ”
"Send a message to the senior officials and Xie Yushi, saying, 'The prince has been suffering from heart disease recently, if the two adults have a strange prescription, they should use it as soon as possible', this is our decision, but after all, it is for the emperor and the future prince of the society." Taisu said earnestly.
"Uncle Huang's words, Xiu Shen dares not to obey orders!" He gasped for a moment, then sat up again, "I'll go now." He didn't have time to take off his uniform and went straight to the sun.
"Chen Shilang has arrived!"
Gao Jizhi leisurely played with the silver ring on his hand, and when he raised his eyes and saw Comrade Chen wearing an official uniform, he showed a gentle smile: "Although Lord Chen is small, wearing this dress is also a lot more stylish." Is it still brisk to work lately? ”
"At the feet of the Son of Heaven, the emperor's majesty is shining in the light, and he is burdened with heavy responsibilities, how dare he speak lightly! It's just that the lower officials are in the ministry and gradually get acquainted, so they are no longer difficult to dispose of official documents. Comrade Chen bowed and replied.
"Many of my officials here call Chen Shilang good, and he will inevitably be promoted."
"The life and death of the lower officials are tied to Gao Gong, where Gao Gong is, and where Chen is." Comrade Chen bowed again.
"Good, good, it's rare to have a faithful person." Gao Jizhi took off the ring in his hand, the silver-white color was particularly conspicuous in the sun, "Master Shi came just now and said something I didn't understand, I don't like guessing riddles." Let you guess. ”
"He said that the prince had a heart disease, and asked me to find a strange solution. I'm not Langzhong, and the prince's illness is falling from the sky again, it's ridiculous......" Gao Jizhi knocked on the chair and lowered his head and sighed.
Chen Tongpao had no choice but to decompose it: "Liu Dang is trying to compliment the Liu family to pay homage to the prime minister, and at this time, the prince suddenly contracted a heart disease, which refers to this matter. If you want to find a strange party, this strange square is nothing else, that is, to curb Liu Zhennian's ambitions. ”
"The stakes are serious, and we don't know the situation, so rashly interfering may cause chaos between the DPRK and China. Now we are doing a good job, and we can't fight for this. ”
"However, I'll still ask your opinion," Gao Jizhi's eyes rolled, and Yu Guang glanced at Chen Shilang coldly, "If you want to talk about it together, do I take it or not?" ”
"No." Comrade Chen had already sensed his intentions, and a cold wind rushed towards him. But he doesn't seem to intend to back down, on the contrary, he calmly believes that this is his best chance to develop.
