What can you do in three days? After reading a copy of the Analects and copying a copy of the Diamond Sutra, and then making an appointment with three or five friends to go out for a cup of tea, maybe three days will pass like this.
But in the three days that Jiangxia held Zhu Houxi hostage and was surrounded by Jinyi guards in Tsing Yi Tower, the entire Beijing Division suddenly became full of wind and rain, and all kinds of rumors flew all over the sky.
"The emperor died, and some ministers wanted to support the puppet to ascend the throne and be the emperor behind the scenes. ”
"The emperor was placed under house arrest by the ministers of the court and the central government, and was forced to write an edict to pass on the throne, and the throne was not passed on to the prince, but to the children of other branches of the Zhu family. ”
"The Beijing division has been filled with heavy troops, and the battle for the throne is about to begin!"
"Check! Send someone to investigate immediately! We must find out who is actually creating rumors. In the Yang Mansion, Yang Ting and Tie Qing gave orders to Qian Ning with their faces.
Qian Ning answered, and then stepped back.
In the end, only Yang Tinghe was left in the study, Yang Tinghe shook his head, and said to himself: "It's really amazing, I didn't expect him to use such a trick." The whole thing has been made bigger, is he really not afraid that Daming will be broken up because of this?"
Yang Tinghe suddenly remembered a letter from Jiang Xia to him, and the envelope said that he was asked to open it in three days, Yang Tinghe also held back his curiosity, and he really didn't open it.
Now that the three days have arrived, Yang Tinghe opened the envelope and took out the letter paper from inside.
"Legend has it that the cat has nine lives and can't die at all, so it wants to see if it has a tenth life, so it commits suicide and dies." So being able to control your curiosity is the key to a person's success...... Well, the above is nonsense.
I just want to write this letter to tell Lord Yang that I have sent someone to deliver a letter out of the Jingshi, whether it is Jiang Bin of Xuanfu or the general of the Nine Sides, I believe they have all received the news of the emperor's death.
If you feel that you really have control over the overall situation, then you can help the person you want to help to ascend the throne. If you don't have the confidence to stabilize the world, then please consider my next proposal.
How about we divide the world equally?"
Seeing the last sentence, Yang Tinghe's eyes suddenly lit up.
Sometimes people are like this, once they fall into a dead end and can't get out, they will only think about how to destroy the wall that blocks them, and will not look at the road behind them.
Yang Tinghe is such a smart person, how could he not know what Jiang Xia meant by this. The moment he saw this sentence, Yang Tinghe immediately began to calculate the feasibility of Jiang Xia's proposal and the benefits.
In the end, Yang Tinghe made an astonishing discovery, and it seemed that Jiang Xia's proposal was the best plan at the moment.
First of all, the general environment is that Zhu Houyu has been restrained by Jiangxia, and Yang Tinghe can't prove that Zhu Houzhao has really died, so he can't help people ascend the throne as soon as possible.
Then rumors are flying all over the sky inside and outside the capital, people are panicking, and the forces of all parties may also begin to move. If it drags on any longer, the situation will definitely go out of control.
Secondly, in fact, the prince is only five years old now, which is easier to control than Zhu Houxi. With the power he now controls, as long as the crown prince ascends the throne and does not temporarily stop the government, then he can continue to control the government as a minister.
At that time, he will borrow the power in his hands to develop slowly, and when the time is ripe to seize the throne, there will be no more shackles like today.
Yang Tinghe thought about it and finally got up and walked out of the study, and the old housekeeper who was waiting for Yang Tinghe at the door of the study immediately asked Uncle Xiang, "Master, are you going out?"
"Prepare the carriage and send me to Tsing Yi Building immediately. Yang Tinghe said.
"Yes!" Xiang Shu replied, and immediately retreated to prepare.
Yang Tinghe took a carriage to the outside of Tsing Yi Building, and Qian Ning happened to be there. Seeing Yang Tinghe get down from the carriage, Qian Ning hurriedly walked up and saluted Yang Tinghe: "See your lordship." ”
Yang Tinghe nodded and said, "Let's go, follow me inside." ”
"Huh, inside?" Qian Ning was startled, and hurriedly persuaded: "My lord, Jiang Xia's side is full of masters, and his subordinates' martial arts are low, I'm afraid ......"
"Isn't it clear to me that your martial arts are low? The old man is not afraid of martial arts, what are you afraid of?" After speaking, Yang Tinghe flicked his sleeves and walked straight to Tsing Yi Building.
Inside the Tsing Yi Building, in order to prevent the Jinyi guards from suddenly rushing in, each entrance has always been guarded and sentry.
Today's sentry is Zhang Meng, who stood behind the gate with a big pout, and said, "Someone is coming!"
Xiao Kill thought it was the Jinyi Guard who broke in, and they immediately put down the dishes and chopsticks and picked up their respective weapons. Only Jiang Xia was calmer: "Who is here?"
Zhang Meng said at this moment: "A little old man who is three points like a person and seven points like a ghost, thin and obscene, and is destined to be the bed." There is also a man who looks like a dog from a distance and still looks like a dog up close, and he wears a brocade robe......
"Ahem. Zhong Bin's face turned pale and he coughed.
Jiang Xia smiled helplessly and shook his head, and then said to Zhang Meng: "Okay, don't make trouble, open the door and let them in." ”
"Open?" Zhang Meng looked back at Jiang Xia, "Let them in?"
After seeing Jiang Xia nodding again, Zhang Meng opened the door.
Yang Tinghe walked in front and entered the Tsing Yi Building, and Qian Ning followed behind him. I saw that he kept pressing the handle of the knife with his right hand, and he looked very nervous.
Jiang Xia got up and stood up, nodded to Yang Tinghe, and then pointed upstairs: "Please." ”
Yang Tinghe glanced back at Qian Ning and said, "You are waiting for me here." After speaking, Yang Tinghe followed Jiang Xia upstairs, and finally the two entered a room and closed the door.
Zhang Mengmu sent the two into the room, and said to himself: "If I tell others that a big man and an old man did not call the girl when they arrived at the Qinglou, but the two of them entered the room and closed the door, what would others think when they heard it?"
After speaking, Zhang Meng turned his head to look at everyone, "Huh, what kind of expression do you have?"
In the room, Jiang Xia and Yang Tinghe sat next to the Eight Immortals table.
Yang Tinghe spoke first: "Let's talk about your equal division of the world." ”
Jiang Xia smiled and said, "It's very simple, now that the emperor has died, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is young. If you forcibly promote the children of other royal clans to ascend the throne, and do not choose His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. The result is obvious, according to your current arrangement, it may be successful at first, and the Jingshi will be temporarily controlled by you.
But the world will soon be divided, and those generals and princes with heavy troops will inevitably stand on their own. In the end, they find His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, under the pretext of supporting orthodoxy, and then wave the army into the Beijing Division, I am afraid that it will be difficult for you to resist, so your idea of wanting to set up another person is not realistic at all. ”
Yang Tinghe let out a light snort from his nostrils and said: "That seems unrealistic at the moment, if you don't get in the way at the beginning, let me smoothly announce the death of the emperor, and then take out the edict to announce the throne to the world, and let Zhu Houxi write the holy decree, and the throne will be returned to the crown prince after a hundred years." With such a legitimate name, who in the world will not accept it?"
"Zhu Houyu will return the throne to the crown prince after a hundred years of returning to heaven?" Jiang Xia's eyes became a little cold, "Didn't you mean that in your original plan, as long as you waited until Zhu Houxi sat on the throne, you would kill the crown prince?"
Yang Tinghe looked at Jiang Xia and did not hide it, and said bluntly: "Since ancient times, great things have to be informal, if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is still alive, the ending will be as you said, it will be used by the younger generation, and finally the war will be chaotic, and the people will suffer." ”
"I don't know who is the little one?" Jiang Xia said mockingly.
Yang Tinghe frowned slightly and asked, "How? Will this negotiation continue?"
Jiang Xia looked at Yang Tinghe silently, and finally took a slight breath, suppressed the anger in his heart and said: "The current situation is what I said, you have no other choice than to help the crown prince ascend the throne."
Now that the crown prince is young, he will definitely not be able to govern himself immediately when he ascends the throne, so he needs a few ministers, and my plan is to have four ministers, one for me and you. ”
"Then the remaining two, who are you going to hand over the remaining two places?" asked Yang Tinghe.
"The former cabinet chief assistant who has returned to his hometown, Taifu Li Dongyang. In addition, there is also the newly promoted household secretary, the prince Shaobao Yang Yiqing. ”
Yang Tinghe bowed his head slightly after hearing this, and he didn't seem to want to object. "Li Dongyang and Yang Yiqing are definitely qualified to be the ministers of this life, but are you a stupid person to be an old man? Li Dongyang is your master, and Yang Yiqing is an old friend of you.
The two of them have become ministers of life, and I will still be able to gain a foothold in the DPRK and China in the future? ”
Jiang Xia had long expected that Yang Tinghe would not be easily fooled or regressed in this matter, Jiang Xia nodded and said, "You can tell me first, which two people are they." ”
Yang Tinghe said: "The book of the military department, Wang Qiong." Imperial History of the Left Capital of the Imperial Procuratorate, Xia Yuanming. ”
"Xia Yuanming?" Jiang Xia couldn't help but let out a surprised voice.
At this time, the person Yang Tinghe proposed must be someone from his faction. Jiang Xia expected that Yang Tinghe would propose Wang Qiong, but he never expected that Yang Tinghe would propose Xia Yuanming.
This Xia Yuanming is the imperial history of the left capital of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and he will definitely be able to be this minister in terms of qualifications and official position. But he himself is Li Dongyang's best friend, and his grandson Xia Fengxiao is Jiang Xia's friend.
Jiang Xia never expected that Xia Yuanming would be Yang Tinghe's person.
Yang Tinghe glanced at Jiang Xia and said, "How is it? If you agree to the old man's conditions, then the old man will immediately start preparing for the arrangement of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to ascend the throne." ”
Jiang Xia was silent for a moment, and finally nodded and said, "Okay, I promise." ”
"Very good, from then on, I will be an official of the same dynasty, and I hope that Lord Jiang will cooperate more. A minister in his early thirties, this is the first time the old man has seen him. ”rg
