Chapter 183: The Letters of Chang'an
In the past few days, they have been teaching children while hiking, and they have complemented each other very well.
Everyone knew in their hearts that after arriving in Pingzhou, the place of exile, they would definitely not have so much time to accompany their children and teach their children, so they would accompany them more now if they could.
When they first entered Youbeiping County, Lu Songli and they were also tracked down by the Youzhou soldiers several times, and every time at this time, Xu Zheng stepped forward to identify himself, and the other party only looked at their group of people a few times, and then raised his hand and let them pass.
On this day, their group arrived at Pinggang, the seat of Zhizhi in Youbeiping County. Pinggang is the only place to escort exiles from the official road into Liaoxi County.
Lu Songli put on makeup for Qin Sheng, asked him to put on a skirt, and went to Pinggang Post Station to help her get the letter.
Before that, she communicated with him for half an hour, and finally Qin Sheng licked her bitten lips, put on her skirt, and went to get her letter.
Lu Songli made an appointment with her father before leaving, and Pinggang Post Station left a letter for her, informing her of the changes in the situation in Chang'an City and some important events that happened during this time.
It stands to reason that the post stations of the past dynasties were not allowed to be used privately, in fact, there were many private uses. In this case, the letter naturally cannot be written with the real name and the real name.
Lu Songli asked Qin Sheng to take the code to the post station to get the letter.
After the letter was retrieved, she first checked the seal and saw that the secret mark she had agreed with her father was still there, so she opened the letter.
After reading it, Lu Songli handed the letter to Qin Sheng and asked him to tell his two brothers about the news in the letter after reading it.
Qin Sheng glanced twice, paused on a certain sentence, and then took the letter away, and simply dictated a few things mentioned in the letter.
Qin Heng and Qin Zhao listened carefully, and after being exiled for more than a month, they were closed to news and knew nothing about the situation in Chang'an.
In the letter, Lu Desheng said some news about Chang'an City after the Qin family was exiled. The first thing is that even though Xie Zhan was severely tortured in prison, he did not reveal the wealth hidden by the Xie family.
After Qin Heng and Qin Zhao heard this, they only felt that Xie Zhan was a hard bone. He is cruel to his people, and he is also cruel to himself.
Qin Sheng frowned, and he immediately thought of the hatred that the people of the Xie clan had for her in front of the gate of Dali Prison.
For this result, Lu Songli had long expected it.
If Xie Zhan relented, he would only be suspected of hiding more wealth, and then face more severe torture and interrogation, and in the end, there was only one result, both people and property were lost, and in addition to being guilty in vain, his wealth was not preserved. He is carrying it to death, and he can still protect his wealth.
And he accurately grasped the psychology of the new emperor. The new emperor was able to ascend the throne, and he had merit. No matter what, the new emperor will not let him die, and then chill the minister's heart.
She understands that. I just don't know if his people will learn about this in the future, and think of those dead relatives, will they be able to understand? Lu Songli thought badly.
Her father also told her in the letter that in the current situation in the court, Xie Zhan pushed Zuo Anmin out to help the new emperor and deal with the four ministers who cared for their lives. At present, the four ministers have joined forces in pairs.
When Qin Zhao heard this, he was impressed, "Xie Zhan is worthy of being the most outstanding son of the Xie family, he is still in prison, how can he be sure that the person he recommended will be used by the new emperor?" ”
Qin Heng nodded, indeed, how well you know the new emperor to be able to do this. However, the two of them thought that their Qin family had a sixth brother and sister who was more demonic than Xie Zhan, and their hearts were inexplicably stable.
Regarding Xie Zhan's promotion of people, Lu Songli also guessed. The doubts of the two eldest brothers, she also explained.
She understands the character of the new emperor, and Xie Zhan also understands it.
"For the new emperor, when he finally got the throne and was about to enjoy the fruits of victory, he was arranged by the first emperor to have four ministers to control him, and he must be very uncomfortable in his heart, and he couldn't wait to overthrow the four ministers immediately."
"The new emperor estimated that when Lin Ran took out the third edict and learned that the first emperor had arranged four ministers for him, he should have regretted disposing of Xie Zhan prematurely."
"It's just that the emperors are all golden-mouthed, and they are full of words, and Song Mo has just decided to succeed him at that time. If he released the Xie family because of regret and continued to reuse Xie Zhan, this self-defeating behavior would not only damage the prestige of his new emperor, but also make him appear more immature. ”
She was able to pull down the Xie and Zhao families, and it was really a good time difference.
She can see this, and so can Xie Zhan, so he can smoothly push Zuo Anmin to the new emperor and be reused.
This is also the reason why she introduced Zhang Xian to her father, Xie Zhan has arranged people around the new emperor, and they naturally can't lag behind.
Zhang Xian himself was born in the imperial history, his eloquence is not bad, and he has been exiled for more than ten years, which is an advantage that many officials who have only served in the court but have not been let go outside.
Lu Songli didn't know that it was precisely because Xie Zhan saw through this that he often secretly sighed that he was not in the Xie family every day.
But if the edict in Lu Desheng's hand is taken out a day or two later, or the edict in Lin Ran's hand appears earlier, he is sure to change the outcome of the Xie family's exile.
Qin Zhao called it dangerous.
Qin Heng and Qin Sheng listened to their explanation, and they also felt that the political game was really thrilling and exciting.
Qin Heng, Qin Zhao and Xie Zhan attributed her to the time of heaven and luck.
How did they know that Lu Songli's step was based on his understanding of Emperor Kang Cheng and his accurate attack after predicting Lin Ran's trajectory.
Lu Songli didn't explain too much, after all, he just won.
In the letter, Lu Desheng mentioned the exile of the Xie and Zhao families in Lingnan.
Regarding the exile of the Xie and Zhao families in Lingnan, Lu Songli was both unexpected and not unexpected.
Xie Zhan is a cautious and cautious person who is very aware of current affairs, and he is also ambitious, and does not lack the spirit of hard work.
Quite a contradictory character, isn't it? But that's just the way it is. Xie Zhan had just fallen into a big fight, and his knowledge of current affairs and cautious personality made him definitely give up the northern border (northwest) and Pingzhou (that is, the northeast area) where their Qin family had already been dispatched.
Then the exile of the four places, except for the two in the north, there is only the southwest and Lingnan.
Lingnan is richer than the southwest, and there are more opportunities, and Xie Zhan's ambition will definitely make him can't help but gamble.
The rotten ship still has three catties of iron, and Xie Zhan himself is not a straw bag, so it is still possible to set the penal colony of the Xie and Zhao families in Lingnan, which is located in the southeast.
Qin Zhao joked, "I thought they would follow." "Exile to Pingzhou together. The Xie and Zhao families hate the six siblings so much, it stands to reason that they should come up and find an opportunity to get rid of her.
Qin Zhao's voice was full of regret, it would be fun if the Xie and Zhao families came up.
Qin Heng shook his head, "I still don't want it." ”
The Xie and Zhao families really followed, they were sure that they were uncomfortable, but their Qin family would also be uncomfortable and uncomfortable, and Xu Zhusi and Yang Wei Dart Bureau could no longer take care of them blatantly. Compared with watching the Xie and Zhao families unlucky, it is still important to have a family.
"You say how Xie Zhan chose to exile Lingnan? You can do it in the north and southwest. ”
Lu Songli was speechless, "He's not stupid, the Qin family in the north has been in business for so many years, and they are in exile in the north, are they looking for death?" ”
Hearing this, Qin Heng and Qin Zhao both laughed.
Qin Sheng couldn't help but laugh.
Qin Zhao: "Okay, then he can only choose the southwest or Lingnan." ”
If she is Xie Zhan, she will choose the southwest region, which is easy to convince people, and then work together to develop the local area, it is easier to produce results.
But Xie Zhan, he is used to fighting with people, he is used to seeking those ready-made, visible wealth, and this is his strength, and he can grasp it. It is not difficult to understand that he chose Lingnan as the penal colony of the Xie and Zhao families.
