Chapter 455: Buying People's Hearts

The glow of the sun has not completely dissipated, the crescent moon has already outlined a pale yellow outline on the clear sky, the king of Jin alone through the secret passage, only to come out of the secret door, then saw He Zhan and Lu Li side by side saluted, so he returned the salute, the anti-guest Lord signaled to sit down, the demeanor was steady, there was no high posture, but the body was full of wine, not to mention, there was actually a cherry lip print on the cheeks, but he seemed to be ignorant and unconscious.

He Zhan really couldn't hold back: "I don't want the king to come so quickly." ”

"I heard that Fourteen Lang returned to Beijing, and Xiao Wang lived in Pingkangfang, waiting for the bell to ring." He Ye's eyes were blazing, and he was about to ask him something extremely curious, about how Shishilang cleaned up Liu Tan without moving.

Lu Li just looked at the traces on King Jin's face, and he really couldn't pretend to ignore itβ€”looking at Shishilang like that, he couldn't help but laugh, which greatly hurt the solemnity of His Royal Highness the King of Jin, so he had to interrupt for the time being: "The king waits, and let the people serve and clean their hands." ”

King Jin realized that it seemed to be unclean, wiped his cheeks with his fingers, frowned and glanced at the cinnabar stained on his fingers, a little disgusted, but not embarrassed: "In the end, I stayed in Beili Villa, in order to hide people's eyes and ears, at first I was spending all day drinking, and I had to repay the bell of Xuan, so I pretended to get drunk and got out, but it was too late to change clothes and clean face, it was Xiao Wang's rudeness." ”

This is even more humble and gentlemanly, but King Jin then waved his hand neatly: "The two of them will take care of it, don't hide it from Fourteen Lang, Xiao Wang used to be very worried that Liu Tan would jump over the wall to follow Pan Bo, I don't want this villain to be insatiable, but he was subdued by Fourteen Lang's unwasted efforts, in the situation, Xiao Wang is really curious...... Well, in case Shishilang was caught off guard, Xiao Wang did arrange for the secret guard to keep an eye on him, and this matter had been explained clearly to Liu Shiyiniang, so he was too lazy to repeat at this time, Shishilang could communicate with Liu Shiyi in the future. ”

To say that, this is the first time He Zhan has met the King of Jin in private, although he knew that many of the atrocities and misdeeds of the King of Jin were pretend, but he really didn't expect that he really had the character of Corporal Lixian, although his style was still a little unique......

Seeing that Lu Li Bafeng did not move, He Zhan also calmed down, not paying attention to those polite and humble words with the King of Jin, compared with the words of the Queen Mother, of course, he was more straightforward and knew everything, and explained the Lingnan party clearly, and by the way, he also mentioned the Hengzhou case, so he naturally introduced Shao Guang and asked for the opinion of the King of Jin.

"Shao Jiulang, Yin Erlang and two, Wang Qilang and called the five sons of Chang'an, since both believe in his two virtues, Xiao Wang naturally can also be trusted, although the situation is not critical, but can no longer do nothing, Xiao Wang needs the help of people of insight, although listening to Shishilang, Shao Borong is quite straightforward, as if he is not good at scheming, but he does not lose his integrity, this is worth fighting for, I have no objection, the two can be frank about it."

Seeing that He Ye did not hesitate at all, He Zhan was quite surprised, of course he didn't show it, and heard He Ye talk about Hengzhou: "Listening to the meaning of Fourteen Lang's words, it seems that Zheng Xiong is indeed guilty, but there is no evidence, even if there is, he is not the same as Liu Tan's first rat, but for Mao Wei's henchmen, there is the king of Ruyang eyeing him, and it is impossible for the Queen Mother to punish Zheng Xiong, so should we consider simply assassinating Zheng Xiong?" ”

He Zhan almost choked on wine: "Assassination? His Royal Highness said bluntly, don't say that it is not easy to assassinate the assassination of a state, but it may be exposed, even if it is successful, it is difficult to guarantee that the successor will not follow Zheng Xiong, and it may even become even worse! ”

Assassinations and other actions, unless they are aimed at extinguishing or planting, cannot even achieve the effect of curing the symptoms in terms of saving people's livelihoods.

"So what do you two think?" He Ye was choked, but instead of being annoyed, he was not ashamed to ask.

Seeing that He Zhan was silent, Lu Li said: "The only countermeasure is to find out Zheng Xiong's crime, but the Queen Mother will definitely not judge right from wrong, and can only use King Ruyang, but it is not easy to achieve this matter, and I am worried that Zheng Xiong has already succeeded, and it is difficult to avoid innocent death." ”

"The Urgent Guild is now quite popular with the people, although Xiao Wang privately thinks that it is more righteous to hoe the strong and help the weak, but for the imperial court, it is indeed a dangerous and dangerous bandit and has to be suppressed, and it is legal for the Queen Mother to order a strict crackdown, if you rashly oppose it, it will be suspected of misdeeds......" He Ye also frowned: "But if Zheng Xiong really traps the innocent as a bandit, he should be killed more than the bandits, and if he doesn't know it, he doesn't care about the people's livelihood, and he needs to do his best to do his best in this matter." Xiao Wang will arrange it, and it will make people secretly investigate the Hengzhou bandit case. ”

As he spoke, he stood up: "Just in case, Xiao Wang can't delay here for too long, so I will leave, and Xiao Wang will send someone to send some things later, thinking that it is a wedding gift for Fourteen Lang." ”

When Shishilang and Lu Li bowed and straightened up, Shishilang didn't even have time to thank King Jin for the gift, and saw that the young man's crow green brocade clothes had disappeared in the secret door behind the bookshelf, just like when he came. Two moments later, sure enough, Jiang Yu came over with two brocade boxes, one long and one short, and said auspicious words in a row, all of which were congratulatory messages for a hundred years of good harmony and early birth of a noble son, and he didn't seem to be in a hurry to leave.

He Zhan opened the gift box to see, but there was only a thin note in the short side, and when he looked at the first text, it was a certificate that could be found by the Pei brothers and sisters to spend money and silver, this gift was not small, seeing He Zhan's face full of surprise, Jiang Yu explained with a smile: "Your Highness knows that the two of you can't do without many secret subordinates, and Your Highness can't help them in their hands, so you can't even use them without supplies, this is also for the sake of the great cause, Fourteen Lang must not shirk." ”

He Zhan opened the other gift box again, but saw a long sword lying inside, a black leather sheath, and a red gold treasure handle.

"Good sword!" He Zhan couldn't help but praise.

"Although it seems that swords are rarely used as wedding gifts, His Highness is well aware of Shishiro's outstanding swordsmanship, and he only thinks that gifts should be in Shishiro's preferences."

"Please also ask Chief Jiang to convey that He Zhan would like to thank His Highness for his kindness."

Jiang Yu said goodbye with a full heart.

He Zhan left the courtyard with Lu, raised his head and poured a drop of wine into his throat, took advantage of the excitement to pull out the newly-acquired sword from the black sheath, danced for a while, and sweated a lot, but he was very happy, and it was easy to sit down, and then drank a glass of wine to quench his thirst, and then asked Lu Li with a smile: "I can't even call the King of Jin acquainted, I used to only hear Eleven Niang occasionally mention it, but he is not like a corporal Lixian, quite proud, how does Xuanzhi think of King Jin's words and deeds today, is it to buy people's hearts so he deliberately disguises?" No matter how I look at it, it seems a little unnatural. ”

Lu Li also smiled: "His Royal Highness the King of Jin is so attentive to Shishilang, I didn't expect to end up with a comment that bought people's hearts, if I knew it, wouldn't I be disappointed." ”

It's really because Eleven Niang chose the lord who is most likely to overturn the case for Pei Zheng, but whether it is He Zhan or Wang Ningzhi, they can't be sure that He Ye is the emperor star who can save Huaxia from danger, but He Zhan has always been the only one who obeys the Eleventh Niang order in major matters, and a large part of the reason why Wang Ningzhi agreed to assist is because He Ye was the one who really liked Emperor Renzong before the collapse.

I heard Lu Li say again: "I have relatively more contact with His Royal Highness, and I think that as Shi Niang asserted, the Jin Wangcheng Mansion is unfathomable, but listening to His Royal Highness's analysis of the military and political situation, it is indeed not a short-sighted and shallow person, and it is not like the vulgarity of only valuing the power position, in this regard, whether it is the king of Yichuan or the king of Ruyang, it is far inferior to the king of Jin." ”

He also told He Zhan that King Jin had fought for Cui Guogong and Wu Weibo in the past half a year.

"Your Highness, is this to prepare for going to the domain?" He Zhan was very keen.

"To be precise, it is to prepare for the pacification of civil strife."

"This is to establish military prestige and start a frontal war with Empress Dowager Wei." He Zhan bowed: "Bypassing the comparison with women in the palace city, I only care about forming a party for personal gain, but focusing on military and political practice, and the pattern is obviously broader." ”

"But I first contacted the King of Jin, but I thought he was not an approachable person, Xu had no power in the past, but was forced by the times, long-term use of stubborn violence as a disguise, mentality also has some influence, so sensitive and suspicious people can't figure out the depths, but now since you want to achieve a great cause, and there are Lu Gong and other great Confucian guidance and history, of course the King of Jin understands that if you want to be subordinate to loyalty, you have to show kindness, and the act of buying people's hearts is indispensable, we have preconceived opinions, so we will feel a little unnatural, However, I believe that since the King of Jin is concerned about the Hengzhou bandit case, he will not just talk about it. ”

"Hearing Xuanzhi say this, I have a lot of confidence in King Jin, at least he still understands how to do what is really beneficial to Jiangshan Sheji, but in this way, Eleven Niang may be more determined to become the princess of Jin." He Zhan still didn't bypass Pei Fifth Sister's fate in the end.

Lu Li stopped talking, and turned his eyes to look at the more obvious crescent moon on the sky, and at this time, the last ray of light had been swallowed up by the night.
