"Is your father afraid of the Yingchuan Party?"

Regarding Yang Xiu's persuasion, Wang Lang asked without any care.

Yang Xiu thought about it seriously and said, "Father doesn't care about the Yingchuan Party. ”

When Yang Biao was in power, the 'Yingchuan Party' was only beginning to emerge, compared to the Yang family of the fourth and third dukes, Xun You, Xun Yu, and Zhong Xuan were all great juniors, and they were even not worth mentioning at all.

Wang Lang looked indifferent and said, "I don't care either." ”

Yang Xiu was puzzled and said, "Teacher, the Yingchuan Party occupies most of the imperial court, if they make trouble, teacher, I'm afraid it won't be easy to deal with." ”

Wang Lang looked at Yang Xiu's worried face, suddenly smiled, and said: "In the past few years in the imperial court, I have discovered one thing, which seems ordinary and insignificant, but as a minister, it cannot be escaped, but it is the key to establishing a life. ”

Yang Xiu's eyes widened, a little incredulous, and said, "What's the key? What did the teacher find? ”

Wang Lang had a hint of pride in his eyes, sat down a little better, and said, "Two words: emperor's heart." ”

Yang Xiu thought about it, as if he understood something but didn't know the essentials, raised his hand and said, "Please also ask the teacher for guidance." ”

Wang Lang still liked Yang Xiu's protégé very much, but he didn't hide it, and said: "In short, it is the heart and style of His Majesty in the palace." After years of observation, in His Majesty's heart, national politics is more important than everything. The so-called uncle, that is, General He, to the later Yuan family, Wang Yun, and your father, whether it is prestige, merit or morality, these are not important, the most important thing is whether or not you can handle national affairs for him. ”

Yang Xiu nodded lightly, he was well aware of this, in order to avoid the Yang family from repeating the mistakes of the Yuan family, his father had always been 'ruling by inaction' in the phase, which made the palace very disgusted, so that the government and the opposition were well known.

"And then to today's 'Yingchuan Party',"

Wang Lang continued: "These people are all young people, and they are the people who His Majesty has focused on cultivating to replace the people of the first emperor's period, and they are the courtiers who belong to him. The most important characteristic of these people is not that they have always supported His Majesty and avoided all kinds of disputes since His Majesty succeeded to the throne, but most importantly, they can do things for His Majesty. The maladministration before the middle and peaceful years was basically cleaned up by the 'Yingchuan Party', which is the most important point for His Majesty. ”

Yang Xiu was a little confused, and said, "Since Your Majesty values them so much, why is the teacher still openly embarrassed them?" Especially in Shangshutai, he also had a secret conversation with Cao Cao. This is not only the 'Yingchuan Party' will hold a grudge, but His Majesty will also be suspicious, right? ”

Wang Lang smiled proudly and said, "You still don't understand." Your Majesty values the people who do things, and the focus is on doing things, not people. This 'person' can be a eunuch party in the past, a general He Jin, a Yuan family, Wang Yun, Dong Zhuo, Yuan Shao, etc., and now it is a 'Yingchuan party', why, can't it be me? ”

Yang Xiu seemed to understand, but he was still confused and uneasy, and said, "Teacher, what are you going to do?" ”

Wang Lang confidently picked up the teacup, took a sip gently, and said, "For the 'Yingchuan Party', I don't have to care about it at all. I just need to show His Majesty what I am doing, as long as I am doing things, the 'Yingchuan Party' is embarrassed by me, which is essentially embarrassing Your Majesty. At such times, His Majesty will lean towards me. ”

Yang Xiu was completely enlightened, but frowned and said, "Teacher, do you have to do this?" Aren't you afraid of the skin of the tiger? ”

In Yang Xiu's opinion, his teacher's move is too dangerous, the 'Yingchuan Party' climate has been established, once he really does it to Wang Lang, there may not be a chance for Wang Lang to prove himself. Similarly, that Cao Cao is also a big trouble, and he shouldn't be easily touched, especially in Shangshutai, under the noses of the palace, it's like a provocation!

A smile appeared on Wang Lang's face and said, "I just do it openly and uprightly, and I am not afraid that Your Majesty will know." As for Cao Cao, Da Sima has been on leave for many days, and seeing that if he can't do it, Cao Cao, who trusts Da Sima, must make friends even if he has some adventures. ”

Yang Xiu always felt that something was wrong with Wang Lang's words, thought about it in every way, and suddenly said, "Teacher, are you hiding something from me?" ”

Wang Lang had always known that Yang Xiu was smart, and when he saw that he couldn't hide it, he said, "You don't need to know anything else. It's still the same sentence, you are in Shangshutai, bury your head in things, don't care about the rest, don't listen to it, after a while, I will let you out to save us from worrying. ”

When Yang Xiu heard Wang Lang say this, he didn't say anything more, raised his hand and said, "The student has worried the teacher." ”

Wang Lang looked at Yang Xiu, a trace of complexity appeared on his face, and he sighed lightly: "The court situation is obscure, the people's hearts are not ancient, there is not much that your father and I can do, in the future, whether we can regenerate the Han Dynasty depends on you." ”

Yang Xiu raised his hand and bowed deeply.

……

Cao Fu.

Back hall.

Two lights, a chessboard, the chess pieces fell with a snap, and there was no other sound.

Jia Xu is not Guo Jia, he is cautious, not as open-minded as Guo Jia.

Cao Cao's city was getting deeper, and he was wary of Jia Xu, staring at the chessboard expressionlessly, thinking about the chess game.

Squeak

At this time, Mrs. Ding pushed the door in, took the plate, came to the front, and placed it lightly.

Cao Cao glanced at the warm wine on his plate, and said softly: "It's late, you rest early, don't worry about us." ”

Mrs. Ding responded softly, glanced at Jia Xu with some curiosity, and stepped back to go out.

Hearing the sound of the door closing, Cao Cao exhaled lightly, looked up at Jia Xu, and said, "Wenhe, what do you think of today's events?" ”

Even if Jia Xu stayed at home, he still knew everything about the big and small things in Luoyang City, and said: "The so-called 'Jian'an Five-Year Governance Outline' will inevitably be passed, Your Majesty has been painstakingly lonely for many years, and no one can stop it." The general's appearance is a good strategy to kill two birds with one stone. ”

Cao Cao stretched out his hand to pour the wine and said, "Wen He doesn't think I'm reckless?" ”

Jia Xu didn't like to drink very much, so he still accompanied Cao Cao for a drink, and then said, "I don't think so." Presumably, Wang Tingwei and the princes of Shangshutai will thank the general for his righteous action, which is completely the face of the court. ”

Cao Cao took a sip of hot wine, stretched out his hand to pick up the chess pieces, and said, "Wenhe, what do you think of Wang Tingwei's sudden attack on Shangshutai?" ”

Jia Xu also pinched the chess pieces and said: "I should have seen some kind of opportunity, Your Majesty has long been dissatisfied with the 'Yingchuan Party'." If the Yingchuan Party falls, perhaps Wang Tingwei can leap into the sky and enter Shangshutai to worship the prime minister. ”

Cao Cao was stunned and looked up at Jia Xu.

This is the path he didn't envision, only when Wang Lang or the people behind him had other plans, he never expected that there would be such a possibility!

However, if you calculate it carefully, the big names in Shangshutai and Liucao Nine Temples are either old to death, or they are still young, and Wang Lang is quite prominent among them.

But after a moment, Cao Cao shook his head and said: "Your Majesty's dissatisfaction with the 'Yingchuan Party' is true, but it is not to the extent of fear, and now that the 'New Deal' has reached the most critical time, it is absolutely impossible to clean up the 'Yingchuan Party'. ”

Jia Xu nodded, followed Luozi, and said: "Then for some of the benefits of the 'New Deal', Dali Temple is in charge of judging and judging, once it spreads to the whole country, it will inevitably have an impact on the power of the 'Yingchuan Party', and Wang Tingwei may have to strike first." ”

Cao Cao picked up the teacup again, his eyes were indifferent, and he said, "Wen He is saying that there will be party strife in the imperial court again?" ”

"Not really,"

Jia Xu stared intently at the chessboard and said, "'Party strife' will attract the thunderous wrath of His Majesty, but it is just a secret battle floating on the surface. ”

Cao Cao was very displeased with this mode of dialogue between him and Jia Xu, so he endured his impatience, put down the teacup, and said, "Wenhe, what do you think of the Great Sima Mansion?" ”

After Jia Xu fell, he withdrew his hand, looked directly at Cao Cao, and said, "Da Sima may not survive next January, and at that time, the general will be the de facto Da Sima." In the relationship with the 'Yingchuan Party' and Wang Tingwei, we must be careful. ”

Cao Cao missed Guo Jia very much.

Although Guo Jia was not very good at court battles, the advice he could put forward was always effective and in line with Cao Cao's wishes.

This Jia Xu is always saying some seemingly useful nonsense.

Cao Cao felt that his mouth was dry, picked up the wine glass again, drank it all, and then said: "It's getting late, Wenhe should rest early." ”

Jia Xu raised his hand and said, "Jia Xu also rested early, and the next official retired." ”

Cao Cao ignored it, packed up the chessboard, and when he heard the sound of the door closing, he reached out and picked up the wine jug and poured a big sip, looked at the black beams, and sighed: "Fengxiao, why did you abandon me and go......"

Jia Xu walked out of Cao Cao's courtyard, walked on the dark road, and said to himself: "The general's alcohol addiction is getting bigger and bigger. ”

The housekeeper who led the way did not dare to speak, and carried the lantern, cautiously.

The next day at noon.

Liu Wei got up from Xiao Qiao's bed, felt the cold outside the window, and shivered a little to get dressed.

Xiao Qiao stood beside him, but he was not afraid of the cold, and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, the concubine heard that the royal garden outside Luoyang is quite warm......"

Liu Wei stretched out his hand and scratched her nose, and said, "It's only going to be colder there, and it will be warmer if you go south." ”

Xiao Qiao wrinkled his nose charmingly, and said, "I may have to go to Jiaozhi, and it is also cold over there in Wu County." ”

Liu Wei looked at her and smiled strangely.

The two big and small Qiao sisters, Da Qiao is thin and immature, but they are very knowledgeable. This little Qiao has a mature appearance all over his body, but his behavior is quite delicate.

Xiao Qiao looked at her expression, suddenly arched into his arms, and said, "Your Majesty is not allowed to think too much......"

Liu Wei hugged her with a smile, comforted her, and left Xiao Qiao's yard.

Xu Yan waited outside for a long time, and when he saw Liu Wei coming out, he hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, the prime minister has been waiting in Chongde Hall for a long time. ”

Liu Wei snorted and said, "Go and say hello to the queen mother first, and eat something by the way." ”

Xu Yan was stunned for a moment, so he had no choice but to respond and order someone to drive.

Half an hour later, Liu Wei left the Yongle Palace and returned to the apse.

"Your Majesty!"

As soon as Liu Wei sat down, Xun Yu raised his hand and saluted.

After Liu Wei sat down, he habitually took a sip of tea, glanced at a large plate of playbooks behind Xun Yu, and said with a smile: "No courtesy, sit down." ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Xun Yu has come here I don't know how many times, and he is used to sitting on the first chair on the left.

Pan Yin brought the plate to Liu Wei, and then stood aside.

Liu Wei glanced at the notebooks that had been placed in different categories, and said to Xun Yu: "Qing family, are you all ready?" ”

Xun Yu turned sideways and said, "Yes." Your Majesty, the nine categories and thirty-six sub-categories of the 'New Deal' have been prepared and are submitted to Your Majesty. ”

Liu Wei didn't look at it, but said: "Can you ensure that it will be completed on schedule and on time?" ”

Xun Yu's expression did not move, and said, "Back to Your Majesty, the minister has confidence." ”

Liu Wei's eyes narrowed slightly, and he said slowly: "The words of the Qing family...... Seriously? ”

Xun Yu's face did not change, and said: "Minister, I am willing to make a military order." ”

Liu Wei didn't see anything on Xun Yu's face, reached out and took a copy, flipped through it casually, and said: "'Separation of military and government' has always been a priority, and in the implementation of the 'new policy', especially in the more difficult places, we must ensure that it is 'controllable'. It's okay to have a mess, but there can't be a big mess, 'controllable' is the first thing! ”

Xun Yu raised his hand and said, "The minister understands." ”

Liu Wei put this down and said: "I hope that Shangshutai can take the initiative to ease the relationship with Cao Cao, and then Shangshutai and Da Sima Mansion must work together, and they must not hinder each other and trap each other." What I want is the steady progress of the 'New Deal', not the recurrence of 'party strife'! Xun Qing, my words, are you clear enough? ”

Xun Yu didn't understand, he calmed down, got up and raised his hand and said, "The minister understands." ”

Liu Wei's eyes were burning, staring at him and said, "What I want is not for you to understand, but for you to do it!" ”

"Yes, the minister will work together with the Great Sima Mansion to complete His Majesty's 'New Deal'!" Xun Yu raised his hand and said righteously.

Liu Wei nodded slightly and said, "Wang Lang's side, I will beat, and Shangshutai doesn't need to do anything." ”

"Yes." Xun Yu said. Although he is a little 'old-fashioned', he also understands very well that His Majesty in front of him wants to protect Wang Lang, and the 'Yingchuan Party' can't move him.

"I'll take my time to see this,"

Liu Wei always looked at Xun Yu and said, "The yuan is about to be changed, there are many things to do, and the Qing family has worked hard." One more thing, on the side of the Royal Money Bank, the Qing family has time to take a trip, and after the yuan change, it is necessary to issue 'Jian'an copper coins', strive for ten years, and abolish other miscellaneous money. This is something that has been set a long time ago, and the Qing family is also concerned. ”

Xun Yu also knew about this matter, raised his hand and said, "The minister's decree." ”

Liu Wei snorted, and then said in a gentle voice: "200,000 yuan, is it enough?" ”

Xun Yu's expression was also softened, and he said, "Your Majesty, it is enough for the imperial court to harvest next summer." ”

200,000 yuan, for Xun Yu, it is a windfall!

Before, the palace and through the news, he would give him a large sum of money, but he didn't expect that it would be as high as twenty!

It is equivalent to three years of taxes for the imperial court!

There are so many things that can be done, and it solves his urgent needs!

Liu Wei picked up the teacup, took a sip of tea, and said: "In the next few years, I will make up for you 200,000 yuan every year, and I will do it with my heart, no matter how big the difficulty is, I will be behind you." ”

"Minister's decree, thanks!" Xun Yu raised his hand, his tone was the same as usual, but the logical accent changed.

Liu Wei heard his excitement and said with a smile: "That's all for today, let's go and get busy." ”

"The minister retired." Xun Yu raised his hand and withdrew slowly.

Neither of them talked about the New Deal.

Liu Wei watched him out, and breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

After six years of busyness, I finally came to this day.
