Chapter 369; Ambition
What about the Prince?
Originally, he was holding Shen Huan, a powerful person and Guanzhong Group, in his hand.
There is also Huo Jingzhi's uncle, who can be said to have two trump cards in hand.
As a result, he first abolished Huo Jingzhi's trump card by himself, and then the emperor and queen sent Shen Huan's trump card to him.
He still didn't have to say it, and even kept manipulating, making the other party have other thoughts.
Isn't the fundamental reason that Huo Jingzhi thinks that Huo Jingzhi, a secretary of the Ministry of Industry, can't say anything in the court and doesn't have much real power?
Shen Huan is the same, until now Shen Huan has no clear position in the court, but only hangs the position of a prince and prince in the East Palace.
It's also in name only.
Such a person may not be as good as a five-grade petty official who can speak in the court in the eyes of the prince, and even some low-grade speech officials are not as good as him.
Because he felt that if he couldn't help speak in the court, then he couldn't stand up and help when he was targeted by the King of Qi and the King of Chu.
As everyone knows, these two are characters who can directly reach the heavens, even if they can't go to the court anymore, but as long as they go to the door of the imperial study, the emperor will immediately meet them.
A small fight in the court is nothing more than a war of words, and the emperor will often choose to make peace with the mud because he takes care of the overall situation and is not easy to attack.
But if an important minister privately goes to the emperor to say a word, this lethality is not more effective than those who are jumping eight feet high in the court?
"Second sister-in-law, you have already guessed the matter, but this matter can't be said outside, even Uncle Fang's side."
"Although Uncle Fang may have guessed it, but it's one thing to know, before the emperor makes it clear, we have to pretend not to know, so as not to be known by someone with a heart, and then it will be a big deal."
Fang Zhilan nodded solemnly and said; "Yaoyao, don't worry, the second sister-in-law can save it."
"It's just that since you already know about this, why did you let Prince Wenruo follow me to learn those things in business?"
"Naturally, let him understand business, it is impossible for the emperor not to know what Prince Wen Ruo is doing here, and if he does not object, it is a tacit acquiescence."
There is no objection to this, but now Emperor Zhaowu has also developed a lot of interest in business.
Especially in the recent period, watching the treasury and the treasury continue to be filled, he has deeply realized the benefits of business.
Moreover, the rise of commerce not only did not affect the agriculture of the Yu Dynasty, but even agriculture still had a tendency to flourish.
Just kidding, Huo Junyao's high-yielding breeds are joking?
In the past, an acre of land was at most three or four hundred catties, but now it has been increased to more than 1,000 catties, and even potatoes are as high as three or four thousand catties.
How many times has this been multiplied? How can it not flourish?
Many people are now not worried about eating and drinking, and workshops are rising everywhere, which makes many people who are no longer worried about eating and drinking have more money.
If you don't have to worry about eating and drinking, you still have money, and you can't improve your life?
It costs money to buy things, and the merchant can get a profit, and the state can collect more commercial taxes.
"Also, do I have to put more effort into cultivating Prince Wenruo in the future?"
"You don't have to think about it, it's like it was before, it's like it is now, sometimes it's not a good thing to spend too much thought, but it will make people feel like they have other plans."
Fang Zhilan nodded understandingly.
felt that it made sense for the sister-in-law to say this, but she still secretly decided in her heart that although she couldn't pay special attention to it, it should be okay to properly enhance the relationship.
Maybe because of this incense, if he can go up in the future, the Jiguo Mansion will be more stable, not to mention far, at least to ensure that in the next few decades, or even hundreds of years, as long as the Jiguo Mansion does not dare to do anything rebellious, it can be as stable as Mount Tai.
"You can just know about this second sister-in-law, Uncle Fang, Dad and Second Brother, you don't have to say much, just remind them to be more cautious in the capital recently."
Fang Zhilan nodded again.
On the same day, she personally wrote three letters, and she didn't mention a word about some things that Huo Junyao said about Prince Wenruo, and even Huo Junyao asked her to remind her, she also used a very tactful method, but at the end she also added that this was what Huo Junyao said.
It's also tantamount to reminding them in disguise.
Sure enough, Huo Jingzhi, father and son, who received the letter in the capital, went directly to the study.
"Dad, what does little sister mean by this? How can you suddenly remind us of such a thing? ”
Huo Jingzhi's eyes flashed, not only did he have a better brain than the current Huo Jinyan, but he was also much higher than Huo Jinyan in terms of his position, and he definitely knew more about some things than Huo Jinyan.
Therefore, the moment he saw the letter, he already had a guess in his heart.
"Your little sister probably received some rumors, and the emperor asked Prince Wenruo to stay with your little sister to study in the future, and he can't come back without his summons."
"And this? Because of what? ”
Huo Jinyan was still a little puzzled.
But soon, as Huo Jingzhi told some of the things he knew about Qingshi Lane and the fire, as well as some speculations, Huo Jinyan's face immediately became serious.
"You mean the princes"
"I'm afraid yes, and the emperor hasn't moved, I'm afraid I want to take this opportunity to clear the obstacles for Prince Wenruo."
Huo Jinyan was even more shocked at this time.
"The emperor really plans to change."
Huo Jingzhi sneered and said; "You can't see what kind of virtue this person is now, will he be able to hold that position in the future?"
"The emperor has great ambitions, and now that the development of the Yu Dynasty is getting better and better, he will not let the domestic situation become chaotic, so he must want to take this opportunity to kill multiple birds with one stone, not only to change the prince, but even to take this opportunity to calm down the internal situation and develop externally."
"Turkic is a disease in the emperor's heart, when our Yu Dynasty was established, these wolf ambitious guys did not suppress us."
"At that time, our Yu Dynasty was weak, so we could only endure it, and we could only endure it if we were trampled on by someone over there."
"Do you think the emperor will forget this? How good is the situation in the Yu Dynasty now, can the emperor still let the Turks go? ”
Thinking of the things that happened to him at the beginning of the establishment of the Yu Dynasty, Huo Jingzhi, a courtier, felt humiliated, let alone the royal family, especially Emperor Zhaowu was still a person with strong self-esteem, and he had not made any very outstanding achievements in the years since he was on the throne.
He's not going to go on like this forever, and if he does, then isn't he too mediocre?
As for the corn and potatoes, and even the commercial part, although the achievements are remarkable, they are all the achievements of the Zhaode County Lord, and Emperor Zhaowu is just following the light, not his own achievements.
Therefore, Emperor Zhaowu was anxious to prove himself, so he was not only Turkic, but also afraid that when the time came, Tubo, Tuyuhun, and even Goguryeo would become a tool for him to accumulate merits.
