Wu Sansi in the first alliance negotiation with Er Zhang because the asking price was too high, the two sides broke up a little unhappy, and soon, Wu Sansi heard that there was a poisoning case in the palace, and the imperial doctor Yao Xi was affected, so he immediately guessed that this was Er Zhang doing something to Li Zhen.
This made Wu Sansi a little disappointed, if Erzhang killed Li Zhen through the poisoning case, then they would not come to ask him for help again, he secretly regretted it, he knew that he should not be so greedy, he should have promised Erzhang.
In the study, Cao Wen was comforting Wu Sansi, "Father-in-law, don't worry, the son-in-law has received the exact news, Yao Xi was rescued by Shangguan Wan'er, and the poisoning case is no longer over." ”
This news made Wu Sansi a surprise, although he also hated Li Zhen equally, but at this time, when he heard that Li Zhen had reversed the situation, he actually had an urge to cheer, "Hehe! This time both estimated that their faces were swollen." ”
Cao Wen said with a smile: "This is because they underestimate the enemy, in fact, no one knows Li Zhen better than me, I watched him grow up, he is very good at turning the tables in adversity, that year's Wuju Township Test, he was bullied by several major families in Dunhuang, but he actually found Wang Xiaojie's way, reversed the situation in one fell swoop, and successfully won the quota, at that time I knew that he was not a simple person, but Erzhang thought too simply, thinking that a poisoning and planting could bring down Li Zhen, it can only be said that their strategy is still a little. ”
Cao Wen pointed to his head, "It's not enough here!"
Wu Sansi sighed, "It's a pity that Li Zhen refuses to help me, otherwise I would have ascended to the throne today." ”
Speaking of this, Wu Sansi's expression became hideous, and he gritted his teeth and said: "If he refuses to help me, he is my great enemy, and I must get rid of him, otherwise I will die in his hands sooner or later." ”
Cao Wen's expression was a little unnatural, not because Li Zhen was his brother-in-law, although he also knew that his ex-wife Li Quan's business was getting bigger and bigger, and he had become the leading female tycoon in the Tang Dynasty, but he didn't regret divorcing Li Quan, but he came to Wu Sansi today to talk to him about his involvement.
Di Renjie died, there was a vacancy in the phase, countless people were staring at this position, Cao Wen was naturally no exception, and he was really talented and learned, even Di Renjie once praised him for having the talent of the prime minister, so he backed Wu Sansi, why didn't this phase belong to him?
It is said that Gao Xi, Zhang Shuo, Song Jing, Huan Yanfan and others are also staring at this position, there are more monks and less porridge, it depends on who has stronger off-the-counter ability, Cao Wen hopes that Wu Sansi can use this as a condition to trade with Erzhang, but Wu Sansi doesn't seem to remember this matter.
Cao Wen was just about to speak, but at this moment, the third son, Wu Chonglie, reported outside the door: "Father, Brother Yanxiu is here, saying that there is an urgent matter to report. ”
"Let him in!"
After a while, Wu Yanxiu hurriedly walked in and said eagerly: "Second uncle, there is urgent news." ”
"What's the matter?" Wu Sansi asked a little unhappily.
"I got a message today, Wu Youning is going to be named King Yan. ”
Wu Sansi was stunned for a moment, he didn't hear this kind of thing at all, he shook his head for a while and said, "It's impossible! He is not a concubine, how can he be named a prince, your news must be wrong." ”
Next to him, Cao Wen asked, "Yanxiu, where did you get this news from?"
"When I was playing polo today, I heard Li Longji say that he got the news from his aunt Princess Taiping yesterday. ”
Wu Sansi was also a little uneasy in his heart, and asked worriedly: "Virtuous son-in-law, you don't think this is true, right?"
Cao Wen lowered his head and pondered for a moment, and said to Wu Sansi: "Wu Youning is still in Chang'an, and it will take time for him to come from Chang'an, so it is reasonable to block the news during this time, but there will definitely be a trace of clues leaked out, and Princess Taiping may know, although this matter cannot be said to be ridiculous, but it can't be messed up, I still go and inquire." ”
Wu Sansi heard that Cao Wen should not be with him, he began to panic in his heart, he knew better than anyone else that his only capital was that he was the only remaining prince of the Wu clan. If the martial arts inherit Sheji, then he has to think twice, but if there is another prince, and he is young and strong, has a better reputation than him, and is more capable than others, then his position will really be shaken.
"Virtuous son-in-law, this matter is very important, we must not take it lightly!"
At this time, his son Wu Chonglie ran to the door again to report: "Father, Wu Yizong is here!"
Cao Wen immediately reacted, "This must be the Zhang brothers who asked him to come over, and my father-in-law might as well meet him." ”
Wu Sansi was extremely disgusted with this Wu Yizong who betrayed him, he didn't want to see this person, but as soon as Cao Wen said this, he changed his mind and said to Wu Chonglie outside the house: "Take him to the Guike Hall for a while, I will come immediately." ”
Wu Yizong is extremely popular among the Wu clan, and there is no one who does not hate him, Wu Yanxiu got up and said, "Second uncle, then I will go back first." ”
"Thank you for the message. ”
Wu Sansi gave Cao Wen another look and asked him to accompany him, Cao Wen nodded and followed Wu Sansi towards the Guike Hall.
Wu Yizong was sitting in the hall drinking tea, when he heard footsteps, he turned around and saw that it was Wu Sansi coming, and hurriedly got up and saluted, "Little nephew, see second uncle!"
"Hmm!"
Wu Sansi reluctantly agreed, and said to him, "Sit down!"
The two sat down separately, Cao Wen sat on the other side of Wu Sansi, Wu Yizong said with a smile: "Let me tell the second uncle a good news first, there is another prince among our Wu clan, General Zhang told me that the saint has decided to seal Wu Youning as the king of Yan, so that our Wu clan's ability to compete with the Li clan has been strengthened." ”
Wu Yizong got straight to the point and sealed Wu Sansi's room for bargaining, Wu Sansi only felt that his eyes were dark, and he almost fainted.
Wu Yizong was favored by Erzhang also has his superiority, he is insidious and cunning, good at observing words and feelings, he deliberately threw out the matter of Wu Youning's crown prince first, and tested Wu Sansi, sure enough, when he saw Wu Sansi's face changed greatly, and there was fear in his eyes, he knew that Wu Sansi was afraid of this matter, and the matter was easy to do.
He sighed deliberately and said: "In the past, General Zhang wanted to cooperate with the second uncle, but due to various reasons, the cooperation was not successful, but General Zhang still hopes that the two of us can continue to cooperate, and this time I specially ordered me to express their sincerity to the second uncle." ”
"Sincerity?"
Wu Sansi sneered, "I don't see where the sincerity is?"
"Of course the sincerity will be fulfilled, the second uncle can rest assured, they are trustworthy people, as long as the two join forces to bring down Li Zhen, they promise to let the son of Chonglie be promoted to the general of Qianniuwei. ”
Wu Sansi was immediately furious, and he only agreed to let his son be promoted to General Qianniuwei, or to overthrow Li Zhen's conditions, it was not as good as even sending Huazi, he was just about to refuse, and Cao Wen next to him said: "If Wu Youning is the prince, I'm afraid the life of the two generals Zhang will not be easy!"
The implication is to remind Wu Sansi that the other party is using Wu Youning's matter to oppress people, it is better to join forces to solve Wu Youning's matter, and then talk about the conditions for dealing with Li Zhen, Wu Sansi suddenly woke up, he sneered and said: "If Wu Youning ascends the throne, the first person he wants to kill is not me Wu Sansi, please tell the two generals Zhang, Li Zhen's matter will be talked about later, first solve the imminent crisis, if they agree, then we can work together, if they don't want to, then I'm sorry, I can't do anything." ”
Wu Yizong's face was red and white, he didn't expect Wu Sansi to bite back, turning their advantage into a disadvantage in an instant, in fact, everyone knew that Wu Youning had a very tense relationship with Erzhang when he was Xiangguo, and in the end, Wu Youning was transferred to take over Li Zhen's Xijing stay, which also had something to do with the breakdown of the relationship between them.
Wu Sansi is right, if Wu Youning comes to power, the first person who will be unlucky will be the Zhang brothers, and he will definitely kill the Zhang brothers to buy people's hearts.
Wu Yizong couldn't go back and explain like this, so he had to lower his posture and said: "Wu Youning came to power, everyone is having a hard time, why don't we all be realistic, deal with Li Zhen first, and then work together to deal with Wu Youning, General Zhang will definitely let the second uncle's wish come true and smoothly enter the East Palace, what does the second uncle think?"
"Yes! I can say yes, but I want to see their sincerity first. ”
"Isn't it enough to let Chonglie be promoted to the general of Qianniuwei?"
"No!" Wu Sansi flatly refused.
Wu Yizong's face was a little unnatural, he had promised Erzhang that he didn't have to give Wu Sansi any good conditions, or even Wu Sansi any conditions, he would obediently give in.
Because Wu Sansi aspires to become the crown prince, as long as he grasps this, Wu Sansi will eventually give in, so letting Wu Chonglie be promoted to general is a plan proposed by Wu Yizong.
Unexpectedly, Wu Sansi categorically refused, Wu Yizong felt very embarrassed, which made him go back and explain to Erzhang.
But having said this, Wu Yizong had no choice, he had to ask, "I don't know what sincerity the second uncle wants?"
At this time, Cao Wen coughed lightly on the side, and Wu Sansi remembered Cao Wen's request, he nodded and said: "My request is very simple, let my son-in-law enter the prime minister first, if I can't even do this little thing, then I really don't think about the ability of the two generals Zhang." ”
Wu Yizong was stunned for a long time, this is the plan proposed by Zhang Changzong, but he was denied by himself, now he is really going to be slapped in the face when he goes back, helpless, Wu Yi had to get up and say goodbye, and when he left, Cao Wen got up and thanked: "Thank you father-in-law for thinking of your son-in-law." ”
"Oh, if you don't warn me, I'll have forgotten about it. ”
But Wu Sansi was still worried: "Now I'm still very worried, we have spent too long on negotiations, and once Wu Youning returns to Beijing and is named King Yan, everything will be too late." ”
Cao Wen pondered for a moment and said: "Wu Youning's matter is just a means of bargaining between my father-in-law and Erzhang, our real purpose is to deal with Li Zhen, I suggest that my father-in-law can do it first." ”
Wu Sansi somewhat understood what his son-in-law meant, "What do you mean-"
Cao Wen nodded slowly, "Wu Youning should be on the way back to Beijing, this is our only chance." ”...... r1148
