Chapter 5 Countermeasures (2)
Xue Zhiqiu couldn't help but snort heavily: "Those are those chaotic ministers who are afraid that the world will not be chaotic, do not respect ancient laws, and do not respect etiquette. However, the old minister really didn't expect to see His Highness outside, and, listen to me, a student, Your Highness, you are still ...... Selling medicinal herbs?"
Yao Jing could hear it and wiped the sweat on his forehead, and then found an opportunity to say: "The subordinate really didn't expect it to be His Royal Highness......
Fang Ling smiled and waved his hand, "If I am recognized, how can I see you?
Yao Jing saw that he didn't mean to blame at all, so he breathed a sigh of relief and responded: "Your Highness is right, if you want to leave the palace and enter the palace, you really need a lot of silver to make a point. ”
Fang Ling then said: "I came to see Lord Xue this time, just for one thing, I believe Lord Xue should understand what I mean, right?"
What kind of person Xue Zhiqiu was, he immediately said: "The subordinates understand that it is about the fief. ”
Fang Ling said, "I don't know how sure Lord Xue is about this matter?"
Xue Zhiqiu sighed and said: "This is also the problem that the old minister is most worried about at present, Wenchen is weak, compared to the ranks of the ministers and generals, the queen's mother's maiden family holds the military power, and the power of Prime Minister Cui is one, and its power has accounted for more than sixty percent of the ministers, but the old minister's side does not account for less than two percent, and the remaining two percent are neutral." ”
"So, the chance is slim?" Fang Ling frowned, this situation was even worse than he expected, only two percent, what chance of victory could he have?
Xue Zhiqiu said: "This is not necessarily the case, if you can get the support of some neutral forces, it may be very possible." ”
"Neutral forces?" Fang Ling frowned slightly, and suddenly remembered what happened during the day, and immediately said, "If you can win over Xinyi Hou, what do you think are the chances of winning?"
"Xinyi Hou?" Xue Zhiqiu's eyes lit up and said, "If Xinyi Hou can really speak for His Highness, then he is at least ninety percent sure." You must know that the reputation of this Xinyi Marquis is not only in the country, but even other countries know that he is a loyal and courageous man, and he has great prestige in the army, not to mention that he has saved the emperor's life. ”
Fang Ling nodded slightly, and decided to inquire about the old lady's condition tomorrow before making plans.
Seeing that Fang Ling didn't say much, Xue Zhiqiu and the others didn't want to ask much, they just thought that Fang Ling was just talking, after all, Xinyi Hou has always been neutral and has never participated in the struggle between the two forces, if you want to get his help, wouldn't it be more difficult than ascending to the sky?
Because the queen and Prime Minister Cui have a lot of eyeliner, Xue Zhiqiu and Yao Jing came quietly, and it was inconvenient to sit for a long time, as for the way to meet in the future, Chen Mou would convey it as an intermediary, because Fang Ling often went to the Tai Hospital, and then made an appointment to meet in a rented house outside, leaving no trace.
Fang Ling saw that the time was not too early, so he also walked out of the courtyard and returned to the palace.
The next day, Fang Ling came to Renxin Hall early and asked Hu Dahai about Mrs. Zhou's situation.
