Lecheng County Mansion, backyard study.

Liu Renliang sat on the soft couch and squinted his eyes slightly.

Liu Jinyu helped him pinch his shoulders behind him, Li Xuan made a cup of hot tea in front of him, and Liu Renliang slowly opened his eyes.

"There are really not many people who know about the relationship between Wang Dezhen and Pei Yan." Liu Renliang sighed lightly and said: "The reason why this is so is because although he was born in the Jingzhao Wang family, his grandfather Wang Yue and the Taiyuan Wang family Wang Tong walked very closely. ”

Li Xuan and Liu Jinyu glanced at each other in surprise.

Liu Renliang looked at Li Xuan calmly and continued: "It was at that time that Pei Yan's mother died of illness, Pei's father married another, and the relationship between the two families was completely severed, but Pei Yan was Wang Dezhen's nephew after all, and this cannot be faked. ”

"In addition, there is the wife of the prince of Pengcheng." Li Xuan's eyes were worried.

"It's just a cousin." Liu Renliang waved his hand indifferently and said, "If you talk about it in detail, my family and his family can even be traced back to an ancestor, which is meaningless." ”

Liu Renliang was born in the Wei family, and the ancestor of the Wei family was Liu Xiu, the emperor of Guangwu of the Han Dynasty, and Liu Xiu was the ninth grandson of Liu Bang, the ancestor of the Han Dynasty.

Liu Xianli was born in the Pengcheng Liu family, and the ancestor of the Pengcheng Liu family was Liu Bang, the ancestor of the Han Dynasty.

The two have thin blood and different positions, and no one has long regarded the two families as a family.

Not to mention, the two have their own roots behind them, and conflicts with each other are common.

"Wang Dezhen was born in the Jingzhao Wang family, although the Jingzhao Wang family and the Taiyuan Wang family are remote, but after all, they have close contacts, and the reason why they were able to rise again is that he is densely documented, and he intersects with Ouyang Tong, Cen Changqian and others, and secondly, because he is the emperor of Gaozu Bang Lang, he has been a palace supervisor for many years, and he is already a close confidant of His Majesty, so there is something yesterday." Liu Renliang said a few words and explained Wang Dezhen's matter.

In the final analysis, Wang Dezhen is different from Wang Fanglan and Wang Fangyi, and his relationship with Queen Wang is much farther.

And he himself did not rely on the Wang family to start his family, he relied on his uncle, General Guzuo Wuwei, the prince of Pingyuan County, Chang Harmonic, from Emperor Gaozu Bang Lang.

This point is a big plus for the emperor, plus the test of Weiwei Siqing and the palace supervisor for many years, it is enough to go further.

"This time, once you break Tanggula Mountain, you will face the whole of Tibet." Liu Renliang looked at Li Xuan seriously and said: "In addition to Wang Dezhen to help you transport grain and grass, in the same way, once Tubo is broken, most of the goods obtained by the army from Tubo will be transported back to Chang'an. ”

"It turns out that he went to keep an eye on his husband." Liu Jinyu suddenly understood completely.

"It doesn't hurt." Li Xuan waved his hand indifferently and said: "Jewelry and jade can be moved casually, but the gold, silver, grain and grass have to be left, and it is good to reward the soldiers to replenish the ordnance and grain, after all, Tubo will rely on these soldiers to guard in the future." ”

Liu Renliang nodded calmly and said: "These are all negotiable, after all, what is lacking in the DPRK is not food, but goods, and treasures and jades are also better than gold and silver, and after returning, they can quickly be exchanged for grain and grass and transported to the grassland." ”

Li Xuan was slightly stunned, and then asked, "Yue Weng thinks that the battle of the grassland is not so easy to end?" ”

"The ambitions of the various departments of the grassland have risen, and it is not so easy to suppress them, even if the current war is calmed down, there will be new crises in the future, and the northern Xinjiang cannot relax." Liu Renliang raised his eyes and looked at Li Xuan with a sneer: "This point, it's not that you King Nanchang can't see it." ”

Li Xuan smiled a little embarrassedly.

Liu Renliang waved his hand and said: "It's okay about this matter, there is another thing, you should pay attention, once Wang Dezhen Tubo is over and returns to the court, then he is likely to pay homage to the prime minister directly." ”

Li Xuan was stunned for a moment, and then asked in disbelief: "Don't do you want to be a household secretary?" ”

"No, his military exploits are enough." Liu Renliang picked up the teacup, took a sip, and said: "Originally, His Majesty wanted him to be the head of the household this time, but because of the suddenness of the incident, it was changed to Luo Governor Shi Cui Zhiyi. ”

"Therefore, after Wang Dezhen was a household secretary for two years, he wanted to enter the political hall directly." Li Xuan suddenly understood.

"Be the deputy head of the Dao for two years, borrow your military merits, be a waiter in the Yellow Gate, and be a third-grade in the same Zhongshu Sect." Liu Renliang sighed lightly and said, "In this way, it can be regarded as balancing the situation." ”

"Yes, now the prime minister of the DPRK and China, there are too many high-ranking lords." Li Xuan nodded in agreement.

Now in the political hall, Xue Yuanchao, Li Jingxuan, Cui Zhiwen, Hedong Xue, Boling Cui, and Zhaojun Li, the three prime ministers, there are too many.

"Now there are eight prime ministers in the political hall, the old man, Hao Chujun, Li Yiyan, all three of them are from Jinshi, Liu Xianli, Zhao Renben, from the middle family, Xue Yuanchao, Li Jingxuan, Cui Zhiwen, born in a high-ranking family. Compared with the past, when Zhang Wenqian and Dai Zhide were there, there were many more of them. ”

Liu Renliang looked up at Li Xuan and said, "Not to mention the back, there is Pei Yan and Pei Xingjian waiting to enter the political hall, if there is no balance between Wang Dezhen, the situation will get out of control." ”

Li Xuan nodded lightly, and then asked, "If Pei Yan and Wang Dezhen enter the cabinet, who will retreat?" ”

If someone goes in, someone will naturally come out.

Shangshu left and right servants, two Zhongshu Ling, two waiters, one Zhongshu waiter with the same door with the three products of the Chinese book, and one with the three products of the Zhongshu door.

Pei Yan and Wang Dezhen entered the political hall, who will retire?

"Hao Xiang and Zhao Xiang." Liu Renliang calmly spit out the names of Hao Chujun and Zhao Renben.

"Pei Yan worships the prime minister, either directly takes over as Zhao Xiang's servant, or Hao Xiangzhishi, and Zhao Xiang is transferred to Shangshu's right servant." Li Xuan figured out the law in this.

Liu Renliang nodded and said: "The situation is out of balance again, so it is inevitable that Wang Dezhen will enter the political hall, after Wang Dezhen, who do you think it will be?" ”

Li Xuan looked up at Liu Jinyu, Liu Jinyu, who was helping Liu Renliang pinch his shoulder, stopped, and then said in a low voice: "Wu Chenghei? ”

Liu Renliang turned his head to look at Li Xuan and said, "You have stopped Wu Chengsi for so many years, does he have a chance this time?" ”

Li Xuan's eyebrows drooped, then he shook his head and said: "His merits are not enough, he has to be a scholar first, and everything has to be vacated after Pei Yan enters the photo, and the position of the criminal department is vacant." ”

"Why does it have to be the Criminal Department, Pei Xingjian of the Ministry of War can't stay, Dou Xuande of the Ministry of Officials is not young, and Liu Boying of the Ministry of Rites, two of them can be moved." Liu Renliang stared straight at Li Xuan.

Over the years, Li Xuanming has done very little in secret, and he has become a six-book book.

Liu Renliang saw these methods most clearly in the political hall, and he also did a lot of means to help Li Xuan cover up and clean up hidden dangers.

Who made Li Xuan his grandson-in-law?

"It will definitely not be able to be stopped, but the only thing Wu Chengsi can go to is the Ministry of Rites." Li Xuan shook his head helplessly.

He has been blocking Wu Chenghei for many years, and his methods are so ingenious that the Empress Wu can't discover his methods.

But if he stops it any longer, I'm afraid he will really expose his existence.

Even in the end, all the things he did earlier will be revealed.

Liu Renliang nodded, and then said: "So you let him go and marry the crown prince and concubine as the concubine, trying to provoke a struggle between him and the Wei family." ”

"Originally, this was a means to ease the relationship between Zhou Guogong and the crown prince, if Zhou Guogong didn't want to mess with the Wei family, the grandson-in-law also found Pei Shangshu......"

"You're suppressing the Wei family." Liu Renliang saw through Li Xuan's thoughts at a glance and asked, "Are you so afraid that they will become the next martial artist?" ”

Li Xuan was silent, then shook his head slightly, and said: "The Wei family is not terrible, the terrible thing is that the prince wants to use the Wei family, and His Majesty has no intention of using the martial family." ”

Relatives have always been the most convenient weapon in the emperor's hands, and they are also the most painful weapon to hurt the emperor.

He Jin is a precedent.

Li Xuan remembered how Li Xian was deposed.

"The things you do, many people can see it, many people can see through it, but no one stops it, just because many people actually think so." Liu Renliang sighed lightly and said, "The political hall is already too crowded, and it can't accommodate a single Wei family, and Wu Chenghei can't accommodate it either. ”

Li Xuan looked at Liu Renliang in surprise.

Liu Renliang shook his head and said: "If it is after Wang Dezhen, the next prime minister who is likely to come to power, the last possible one is Ouyang Tong." ”

"Huh?" Li Xuan raised his head suddenly, his eyes were full of disbelief, his uncle wants to be the prime minister?

Liu Renliang looked at Li Xuan with a complicated expression, and then said softly: "If someone enters, naturally someone retreats, and at that time, it will be the old man who should retreat." ”

The sound of "crackling" sounded, and Liu Jinyu made a mistake and directly knocked down the teacup on the side.

Li Xuan's face suddenly showed a trace of horror.

Even the glimmer of joy that had just risen before had not yet dissipated.

Uncle Ouyang Tong is the prime minister, at most he is a Huangmen squire, and he is the third product under the same Zhongshu Sect, and the existence of the bottom of the political affairs hall, how can he compare to Liu Renliang, the left servant of the Tang Dynasty, the left minister of the political affairs hall.

Liu Renliang shook his head calmly and said, "It's none of your business, the old man is also old, and it's time to retreat." ”

Speaking of this, Liu Renliang smiled calmly and said: "Our generation, Dai Xiang, Zhang Xiang, Hao Xiang, and Zhao Xiang, have to retire one after another, and the old man is already very satisfied with staying at the end." As for you......"

Li Xuan looked up and saw Liu Renliang looking at him, and said with a smile: "Aren't all the things you have done over the years preparing for the arrival of this day!" ”

Liu Jinyu, who had just packed up the teacup in the back, suddenly looked at Li Xuan with a face full of disbelief.

Li Xuan shook his head, and his face was still unsightly: "Grandson-in-law does those things, but he has a good relationship with every prime minister who may be the prime minister." ”

"When Li Jingxuan was in Shanzhou, he was saved by someone you sent; When Liu Xianli was in Northwest Dao, you were his right-hand man; Xue Yuanchao and you have a friendship in the East Palace; Pei Yan, you were still calculating together yesterday; Li Yiyan is considered to be half of the clan; Cui Zhiwen and you have a relationship with the Cui family; Ouyang Tong is your uncle; Wang Dezhen is a good friend of Ouyang Tong, not to mention Cen Changqian, Wei Xuan and others. ”

Liu Renliang glanced at Li Xuan deeply, and said in a deep voice: "A generation of new people will replace the old people, virtuous son-in-law, you are ready." ”

Li Xuan shook his head and said very directly: "Yue Weng's words are bad, even if he is an uncle, he is very disciplined in doing things, as for other people, they will also have their own opinions because of various things, like Yue Weng, who considers his grandson-in-law everywhere, there is no more." ”

"You are dedicated to the country, you have all the articles and martial arts, you are loyal to Your Majesty, and you take good care of the prince, the prince, the prince, and the princess Taiping, are you really afraid that others will transfer you back from Tubo after you pacify Tubo, what kind of national sacrifice wine will be made by Laoshizi?" Liu Renliang felt a little funny for a while.

Li Xuan has been working hard in the literary world for a while, and has put on a posture that he will go wherever the emperor tells him to go.

But in fact, everyone can see clearly that he is just pretending to be pitiful.

He didn't want to leave the front line and go back to Chang'an.

Liu Renliang sees this very thoroughly.
