Volume 1 Chang'an Chapter 74 Taking Office (5)
In this mansion, there is a monk in the middle of the qi training, Lu Yan suddenly heard the sound outside the door, and he was frightened, because the other party suddenly appeared, and there was no warning in the mansion, which means that those masters have been subdued, in other words, if the other party comes to assassinate, then Lu Yan is in a critical situation, after all, he came to meet the beauty privately, and it is impossible to bring too many guards by his side.
Of course, as a monk with a high level of qi training, Lu Yan is not very afraid of assassination, and he can escape if he can't beat him, the real reason for Lu Yan's surprise is that he is afraid that the other party is the yellow-faced woman in the family, and he will be "caught and raped in bed", then the trouble will be too great, after all, once the family is restless and is reported as a scandal, it will be too bad for his reputation, and he will not have to fight for the position of ruling prime minister.
When he saw that the person who walked into the door was Li Ye, Lu Yan not only did not breathe a sigh of relief, but was even more shocked.
How did Li Ye end up here?
Totally unreasonable!
Lu Yan, who was confused, ignored what Li Ye said.
"I've seen Lu Gong. After Li Ye entered the door, he smiled and bowed his hand.
"His Royal Highness King An, why are you here?" Lu Yan looked at Li Ye incredulously, his face was full of vigilance, after all, Li Ye is a prince with an identity, and he has changed to an ordinary person, in this case, Lu Yan may not be able to help but make a move.
The beauty shrank behind Lu Yan, only revealing her two eyes, and looked at Li Ye without blinking, like a frightened rabbit.
Li Ye smiled helplessly: "The Lone King knows that it is too reckless to come to see Lu Gong in this way, but it is really what the Lone King wants to say to Lu Gong, which is too secret to be noticed by outsiders, so he has no choice but to make this decision, and he also invites Lu Gong Haihan." ”
As he spoke, he gave it up again.
Lu Yan and Li Ye have no hatred, in his previous life, Lu Yan did not harm Li Ye's country, because not long after, Lu Yan failed to compete for the position of prime minister because of Wei Baoheng's calculations, and was squeezed out of Chang'an by Wei Baoheng.
Lu Yan was silent for a moment, and suddenly smiled: "Your Highness is really a good means, after the incident of Shenyun Mountain, the entire Chang'an City is praising Your Highness, but now you know, even if everyone is looking down on Your Highness, in fact, they still underestimate Your Highness." ”
Saying that, Lu Yan regained his calm state, and the demeanor of the court's important ministers returned to him, he asked the beauty to step back, and instructed his subordinates to prepare tea and snacks, and then invited Li Ye to take a seat: "Since His Royal Highness is here, please sit down." ”
This gesture seems to be planning to ride a donkey to read the record book, and first find out Li Ye's intentions.
Li Ye smiled and said, "Thank you Lu Gong." ”
Lu Yan can calm down so quickly, Li Ye doesn't think it's strange, after all, he is a number of important ministers in the court, and his temperament is not too bad, although in essence Lu Yan is not a good person, but he is not a good person, and whether he is outstanding in talent or not, whether he is calm or not, are two different things.
"His Royal Highness's deeds in Niushou Mountain, I have heard of it, and I have long wanted to get together with His Highness and see His Highness's demeanor, but I am busy with business and can't get out of my body, so I can't go to the house as soon as possible, and I ask Your Highness not to blame. After sitting down, Lu Yan began to greet each other.
Li Ye also began to blow to each other in officialdom: "Lu Gong's prestige is like thunder, who in the world does not know? ”
Saying that, he pretended to sigh, "It's only when I saw Lu Gong today that I realized how ugly people in the world are, and no matter how much praise I have for Lu Gong, I still can't show Lu Gong's demeanor." Today, Lone boldly came, and changed to ordinary people, either regarded Lone as an enemy, or sat on pins and needles, and Lu Gong was as stable as Mount Tai, this kind of bearing, not ancient and modern celebrities can not have. ”
"Where and where, His Royal Highness can calmly come here, it has shown that the heritage is not bad, in the past, the old King An was majestic in the world, the world was impressed, although His Royal Highness was young, but he had the style of the old King An, and it was really a tiger father without a dog. Lu Yan feigned humility.
Although Lu Yan is here to meet the beauty, he also has a master, but at this moment, the master has not yet appeared, and he has obviously encountered constraints, so it can be seen that behind Li Ye, there must be a higher master, which is the origin of Lu Yan's so-called "good heritage".
The two greeted each other politely, Lu Yan hoped that his guards would come so that he could control the situation and regain the initiative, while Li Ye wanted Lu Yan to know that you don't have to wait, your guards will not come.
After half a ring, when the beauty took the maid and brought the tea and snacks, Lu Yan was already quite cramped, and Li Ye was still talking.
Although the beauty doesn't understand officialdom, she can also see that Lu Yan is out of control of the situation, she has been with Lu Yan for a few years, this situation is the first time to see it, I can't help but look at Li Ye a few times, but I didn't see anything, I only found that the young man in front of her really gave birth to a handsome skin, which made her heart sprout.
However, she didn't look at Li Ye for too long, because Lu Yan waved her hand to let her withdraw, which made the beauty feel a little regretful.
"Lone came back this time because he wanted to form an alliance with Lu Gong and deal with Wei Baoheng together. After the greetings, Li Ye, who took the initiative, shook Li Ye in his hand, and directly opened the skylight to say bright words.
Lu Yan didn't expect Li Ye to be so direct, and the tea bowl brought to his mouth paused and didn't drink it.
"What does Your Highness mean by this?" Lu Yan couldn't figure out Li Ye's intentions and began to play Tai Chi.
Li Ye's words were direct and sincere: "Wei Baoheng has been in power for all these years, what he has done, there is no need to say much, such a traitor should be driven out of the court, in Gu's opinion, Lu Gong is the best candidate for the ruling prime minister." ”
Lu Yan's tea bowl was in his mouth, and he originally wanted to take a sip to hide his embarrassment, but suddenly heard Li Ye's words, and was stunned again, so he put down the tea bowl directly, and looked at Li Ye: "Your Highness......"
Li Ye waved his hand, not wanting to say too much to Lu Yan: "The prince also means this." If Lu Gong is willing to share the worries of the community, he and the prince will support Lu Gong. ”
Lu Yan was speechless.
His mind was racing in his thoughts.
Previously, he also told Meiren that he wanted to replace Wei Baoheng, but due to his lack of power, he needed to win over a group of important ministers.
The current situation is that he is sleepy, and Li Ye sent a pillow, which is in the middle of his arms.
If Wang Duo helps, Lu Yan's power will undoubtedly rise to a different level.
Wang Duo is not a person, he represents a group of people, the party in the court is distinct, Wang Duo's party is not too big, but in the case that Wei Baoheng has lost Li Guanshu and Kang Chengxun, if Lu Yan adds Wang Duo, his strength is enough to compete with Wei Baoheng!
Lu Yan had to be moved!
After being moved, Lu Yan immediately asked a crucial question: "Your Highness does this, what do you want?"
What is asked for refers to what Li Ye needs to exchange for supporting Lu Yan as the ruling prime minister.
Li Ye, Wang Duo and others, if they succeed in letting Lu Yan replace Wei Baoheng and become the ruling prime minister, then the power is in the hands of Lu Yan, and Lu Yan has become the person who benefits the most, so what do Li Ye, Wang Duo and others want?
At this time, if Li Ye still said anything, Wei Baoheng is a traitor, they are optimistic about Lu Yan, and hope that he will become the humerus of Sheji after he takes power, purge the rule of officials, and support Sheji, then Lu Yan will definitely not believe it, and will immediately deny the idea of forming an alliance with Li Ye and Wang Duo.
No one will believe such a high-sounding reason, everyone is a person in the sea of eunuchs, and what is important is the actual interests of power distribution, if Li Ye says such a thing, he is not sincere to Lu Yan, and if he does not treat it sincerely, it is ill-intentioned.
"If Duke Lu replaces Wei Baoheng, please let the prince be in charge of the household department, Gu is now serving in Chang'an Mansion, and he also wants to be in charge of Chang'an Mansion in the future. Li Ye said sincerely.
Of the six departments of the imperial court, the Ministry of Officials is the most important, because it holds the door of the promotion and debasement of officials of the Dynasty, and the Ministry of Household has the most oil and water, because it is in charge of taxation and transportation, the importance of Chang'an Mansion is needless to say.
Lu Yan was silent, if Li Ye opened his mouth to ask for the household department, he would definitely not agree, he could not control the personnel power, he was the ruling prime minister, and his power would be reduced too much, and even in name only.
However, Li Ye asked for the household, and Lu Yan also felt a pain in the flesh, but the pain in the flesh was painful, but it did not damage the fundamentals, after all, the oil and water of the household, he really became the ruling prime minister, and he could still get some.
As for Chang'an Mansion, it is even more logical for Li Ye to want it, and although Chang'an Mansion Yin is important, his power is limited to one place after all.
At this time, Lu Yan did not doubt Li Ye's intentions, but tried his best to calculate the gains and losses.
In the middle of the sound, Lu Yan looked at Li Ye, who was motionless in the eight winds, and his evaluation of Li Ye in his heart rose to a new level.
Now, Li Ye holds Lu Yan's handle in his hand, if he reveals the matter of Lu Yan's golden house to Lu Yan's wife, Lu Yan will be in great trouble, and don't want to fight for the position of ruling prime minister.
Li Ye had sweet dates in one hand and a mallet in the other, so that Lu Yan could only advance and not retreat.
And Li Ye has already said it so directly today, if Lu Yan still doesn't agree, it means that the two of them will tear their faces apart and will be mortal enemies in the future.
Lu Yan suddenly thought of some rumors.
Li Ye was appointed as the Shaoyin of Chang'an Mansion, which was hand-picked by the emperor!
At the end, Lu Yan sighed: "The world says that King Lao An is both civil and military, and he is the Great Wall of the country, and now it seems that His Royal Highness is enough to inherit the mantle of King Lao An, and even surpass King Lao An." ”
After speaking, Lu Yan stood up and bowed his hand to Li Ye: "It is Lu's blessing to be able to conspire with His Royal Highness and join the community together." ”
With these words, he agreed to form an alliance with Li Ye.
Li Ye stood up, held Lu Yan's hand, and said excitedly: "Lu Gong is a great talent, he can go hand in hand with Lu Gong, retreat from the night, and big things can be expected!"
The two clasped each other's hands, their eyes were firm, and the situation was like two loyal ministers of the country, going to the sea of swords and fires to save the country.
......
After finishing the play with Lu Yan in the mansion, Li Ye shook his hand when he went out.
Song Jiao, who subdued Lu Yan's guards, appeared beside Li Ye like a phantom, and asked him in a low voice, "It's done?"
Li Ye nodded: "Let's talk about it when I go home." ”
He was able to find the place where Lu Yan Jinwu hid Jiao, naturally thanks to the intelligence department set up by Song Jiao.
Back at King An's Mansion, as soon as she entered the door, Song Jiao said to Li Ye with a little eagerness: "If you really let Lu Yan become the ruling prime minister, isn't that another Wei Baoheng?"
Li Ye laughed and said: "He wants to be the ruling prime minister, how can it be so simple, you really want to be a prince is a fuel-efficient lamp, will you be satisfied with only being in charge of a household?"
Song Jiao suddenly looked at Li Ye's eyes and became a little weird: "In this way, are you planning to let Wei Baoheng and Lu Yan Sandpiper and Mussel compete, and you and Wang Duo will sit and reap the profits?"
Li Ye said: "That's not enough, the prince must contribute to this matter, otherwise Wei Baoheng will not be able to bring it down." As for the distribution of benefits after the fact...... It's just another power struggle. ”
Song Jiao nodded: "What can you get?"
Li Ye smiled: "Let's not talk about it, right now, there is a ready-made surprise, I always thought that Yin Xu Shaomu of Chang'an Mansion was Wei Baoheng's person, and Lu Yan told me that it was not." ”
