Chapter 358: The Squares of the Kyoto Variations
Chapter 358: The Kyoto Variations
"Learn a little more about everything, life will be more colorful." Le Buyi gently waved the feather fan while dropping the chess piece in his hand.
Qin Lei sat cross-legged across from him, while casually shaking, "The weather is so cold, why do you still have to fan it?" As everyone knows, he hates the fan of winter, but the other party is Le Buyi, so he is not good at using force.
"I need to calm down." Le Buyi replied seriously: "To be honest, since he came back that day, his head has been buzzing, and it is difficult to even think." Qin Lei asked many people this question, but only Le Buyi's answer left him speechless, so he could only let him continue to slap.
Guantao, who was watching the battle next to him, didn't understand, "You have to be careful when thinking, what should you do to mind?"
Le Buyi shook his head and smiled, "If you think carefully, what else do you need to do with your brain..."
Guantao looked at him worriedly and thought to himself: "This time it's really not worth the loss. Why is Mr. Le so ardent?'
Qin Lei knew that Le Buyi was telling the truth, but no one understood it now. He smiled slightly and continued to join the disputes between the Chuhe and Han dynasties.
Seeing that both of them were not talking, Guantao had to continue to lower his head to watch the chess. However, Qin Lei's chess style has changed drastically today. He is not impatient or impatient, and he is hiding needles in the cotton. He keeps "corner horses" and "palace cannons", but he doesn't confront Le Buyi head-on.
Le Buyi picked up one of his 'cars', rubbed and smiled in his hand, "The prince made up his mind to defeat hardness with softness," and said as he raised the chess piece in four squares and said in a deep voice: "I'm going to catch your horse."
Qin Lei planned for a moment, shook his head and smiled, "I can't let you eat this one, I'll still expect you to join your army later."
While he was talking, Shen Bing walked in quietly and said respectfully: "The people from the Bingma Temple arrested more than 100 other candidates, including Xin Litong."
Qin Lei put down the chess piece in his hand and whispered: "Are there any casualties?"
Shen Bing shook his head and replied, "There were no casualties in the scholars, but the refugees were beaten and injured a hundred."
Qin Lei frowned and said, "Where is the great business ethics?"
"They are contacting students from all over the country and discussing how to rescue them." The careful arrangement of Zhongdu City allowed Shen Bing to understand the required situation in the shortest time.
After closing his eyes and thinking for a while, Qin Lei whispered: "They will go to Wen Yanbo and ask for release."
Shen Bing whispered: "Suvenir Wen is going to have a banquet for guests tonight."
Le Buyi smiled and said, "This is 'God's evil deeds can still be violated; he will not live by himself. The hatred for the prince has already penetrated this person's mind, so it is unlikely that he will pay attention to those scholars." As soon as Wen Yanbo was mentioned, Le Buyi's mouth was full of sin and meanness.
Qin Lei frowned slightly and said, "Tell the head wolf that he will throw that thing at the camera. Gu will need a big explosion." He paused and said, "Let that 'Niba' also show his face when it is right, and then add more money."
Shen Bing responded in a deep voice, and listened to Qin Lei's orders: "We must ensure the safety of those scholars."
After hearing this, Shen Bing was silent for a moment before saying: "The situation is already difficult to control, after all... we cannot show up."
Le Buyi also whispered: "Since it has been launched, don't pay too much attention to casualties, and make it the most important to achieve the goal."
Qin Lei frowned into a concave shape and shook his head and said, "No, these people have been baptized, much purer than ordinary scholars. If you lose too much, you will lose more than you will lose." Since making a plan to deal with Wen Yanbo, Qin Lei has always faced this dilemma... This is the consequence of killing each other.
Guantao sighed on the side and said softly: "Prince, I only want to achieve the goal as soon as possible, so that the damage to the Qin Dynasty will be less." There were three people in the room who opposed Qin Lei's opinion, which made him squint.
Although they were a little unhappy, the three of them were all his left and right arms, so they still had to listen to their opinions. They nodded as if they were about to compromise, and then they heard Shi Gan whisper outside the door: "Prince, Qin Shouzhuo is asking for a visit."
Qin Lei nodded, threw the chess piece in his hand on the table, and smiled and said, "I will go and see him." He was feeling frustrated, so he could go out for some breath. So he put his shoes on the floor and went to the front hall with Shi Gan.
The three of Le Buyi in the room looked at each other and thought to themselves: "Who is you? You can run away if you can't say it...'
After arriving at the front hall, Qin Lei and Qin Shouzhuo exchanged a few simple greetings and asked, "What's the matter with Brother Shouzhuo?"
Qin Shouzhuo knew that the prince was born in the army and hated others to drag and beat around the bush, so he said directly: "Go back to the prince, come to ask you for personal favors."
Qin Lei smiled faintly and said, "Just say, you will definitely do whatever you can do."
Qin Shouzhuo was extremely worried about Qin Lei's style and bowed and said respectfully: "Today, I have a little contact with those students. I found that they are not only quite upright, but also very pragmatic. They are the talents that I need to revive tomorrow. I ask the prince to make plans for my future Qin and try to protect them."
Qin Lei's eyes lit up when he heard this, nodded and smiled, "I didn't expect you to say such things. Let's talk, how do you think about this?"
After all, Qin Shouzhuo was not Qin Lei's confidant, so he didn't know much about the entire plan. He could only infer some of the instructions given to him by Shen Bing. He heard the prince's question, and he slowly pondered: "These students in Beizhiguan must be going to be with Wen Xiangye, but although they have the status of a sir, they are still weak. This can be seen from the arrest of a group of sir in the Bingma Temple today."
Qin Lei nodded and said in a deep voice: "The national competition has become a treasure pot for some bigwigs to use their power for personal gain, and even the scholars who participated in the competition have lost their halo."
Qin Shouzhuo nodded and said, "What the prince said is exactly. He is worried that these students will have to bleed and be injured when they hit the stone with their eggs."
Qin Lei looked at him without saying anything, but heard him continue, "I dare to ask if the prince can come forward to protect them?"
Qin Lei rolled his eyes in his heart and said to himself: 'It's too late to get rid of the relationship now, so how dare I jump out and jump up and down again?' Thinking of this, he shook his head and said: "I can't come forward for this matter. After all, I am a member of the court. If I openly jump out and sing a stage drama with Wen, I will inevitably be looked down upon, and..."
Although the prince held it down and said nothing, Qin Shouzhuo also knew that with the current relationship between the prince and Wen Yanbo, if he stood up, he would only further plan the conflict between the two sides, which would probably backfire. Qin Shouzhuo couldn't help but feel disappointed and said, "Are we just sitting there and watching those prosecutors be captured and killed?"
Qin Lei shook his head again and chuckled, "I am not convenient to come forward, but you can come out to protect them. You are the prefect of Kyoto, and maintaining the security of the capital is a matter of duty. It is okay to take the opportunity to protect the students, right?"
Qin Shouzhuo smiled bitterly and said, "It's okay to protect it. But Beizhi is only a third-rank official. As long as the Secretariat arrives, Beizhi will be helpless." As he said, he asked tentatively: "Or... the prince goes to find His Majesty. If he can invite the Emperor's Sword, everything will be fine."
Qin Lei leaned his body on the back of the chair, picked up the teacup and sipped it, and smiled faintly, "Your Majesty must not interfere, this is a tacit understanding." As long as Emperor Zhaowu gets involved, Li Hun will definitely take action. By then, the two dragons playing with the pearl will become a battle of the four countries, Zhongdu City, and the Qin State will be very fun.
"Everyone chose to compete in a relatively leisurely month and month. It was not to beat the child on a rainy day, but to be idle, but to not want to lose too much of the national strength of the Qin Dynasty. Everyone knows that how can there be a complete egg when the nest is destroyed?" Seeing that Qin Shouzhuo was a little confused, Qin Lei explained to him softly: "So, brother Shouzhuo, things are not as simple as you see. We cannot take all our strength."
Qin Shouzhuo sighed and said, "Forget it, let me do my duty and leave it to my destiny."
Qin Lei put down the teacup and laughed: "Don't be so pessimistic. I will try my best to find a way, but now I am not in a hurry, so I can only let Brother Shouzhu take more responsibility." As he said that, he sat upright, staring at him with his eyes fixedly and said: "Don't be afraid of offending people. After this battle, my Qin officialdom will be reshuffled!"
Qin Shouzhuo heard this and said in a solemn voice: "Sir, please obey the order." After saying that, he asked with some worries: "How much chance do we have to win?"
Qin Lei said confidently: "Ten thousand, the Lone King will not lose."
Qin Shouzhuo was relieved and stood up and said respectfully: "I will go back and arrange it, and I will protect the scholars in every way I say."
Qin Lei nodded and watched him bow and retreat until his back completely disappeared. Then he said to himself: "How sure is the Lone King?" Looking at the Canxue outside the window, he couldn't help but sigh and smiled bitterly: "At least you can escape back to Jingshan Camp and become a mountain king." This time, because of the teachings of the Empress Dowager and Mr. Le, he used less conspiracy and more conspiracy, so Qin Lei used conspiracy this time.
Although conspiracy is simple and easy to implement, for example, it directly assassinated all the Wen family, but it has many flaws and is easy to give people a handle and poison it has been poisoned for many years. For example, the Li family assassinated Huangfu Dan, which was a conspiracy. The effect at that time was immediate and immediately eliminated the threat of the biggest opponent. However, it also attracted the fear and even hostility of the Li family. After seven or eight years, the situation of the Li family was even worse than that of Huangfu Dan when he was there, which shows the strengths and weaknesses of the conspiracy.
The so-called open plot is to "create momentum and use momentum", which moves with the momentum and launches with the momentum, which is inconsistent with the principles of heaven and earth. Except for when there is no momentum, there is no trace of axe and chisel. This can minimize the possibility of being criticized and make the opponent unable to defend... Even if you know that you have a trap, you will still drill in if you do it again.
"Qin Yutian used it as an open conspiracy." Mr. Yin, who was as pale as paper in the Taiwei Mansion, smiled and said, "He put everything on the table, everything was under the sun, so that you could see clearly, but you were helpless. Because it was taking advantage of the momentum to push everything to achieve its goal. Just like a flood breaks the dam, everyone knows that people will die, but those who stand in front of it still have to die, and they can't even leave."
Li Hun heard this and asked in a muffled voice, "Is it impossible to say so?"
Mr. Yin showed his white teeth and smiled, "Everything is good or bad. Open plots rely too much on 'power'. Once the situation changes and the opponent gains power, all the strategies will be defeated without any attack, and even the layup will be backfired." As he said that, he clenched his thin fist tightly and sneered, "If the general trend is the way, the will of heaven will naturally not be disobeyed... Just like Grandmaster, you will replace the Qin family and become the lord of the Qin family, and even the Jade Emperor cannot change it."
Mr. Yin continued with hatred: "But Qin Yutian did not observe the celestial phenomena and did not understand luck, so he tried to create momentum out of thin air and destroy the Wen family. This was playing with fire." The mechanism he designed for the Wen family was destroyed, which directly led to several major households in Beijing canceling the plan to design a secret library, and even the Li family's project was temporarily suspended. He felt that his face was ruined, and his hatred for Qin Lei naturally rose to a higher level.
"Those who play with fire will burn themselves!" Li Erhe, who was next to him, quickly answered. He finally encountered an idiom he knew, so he naturally could not miss it.
Mr. Yin twisted the rat's tail-like beard and smiled and said, "Yes, as long as we overwhelm him in terms of momentum, we can destroy it."
Li Qing also understood and slapped the table and said, "Brother, we should fully support the Wen family and suppress them."
Li Hun glared at him fiercely, scaring Li Qing to shrink his neck. He then shook his head and said, "It's not the time. I have to wait for an opportunity. This time I have to fill the biggest loophole in our family!"
Mr. Yin's heart moved and asked with a hissing: "Does the boss want to conquer the civil officials?"
Li Hun closed his eyes and nodded slowly, "Yes, I reflect on why we have not made any progress over the years. Without the support of civil servants, it is the shackles in it." As he said, his eyes were like a lightning: "Now is the time to break this shackles."
The ghost fire in Mr. Yin's eyes thundered a few times and said quietly: "That Prime Minister Wen..."
"Die!" Li Hun slapped the table suddenly and said viciously: "How can the two companies join forces to join forces to form a family? It is convenient to use? So Wen Yanbo must die!"
"Wen Yanbo cannot die..." In the clean room of Cining Palace, Emperor Zhaowu sat opposite Empress Dowager Wenzhuang, and the person who spoke was Empress Dowager Wenzhuang.
Emperor Zhaowu's narrow eyes narrowed slightly and said lightly: "Is it because of the black jade?"
Empress Dowager Wenzhuang nodded first, then shook her head and said, "He and Mo Yu's child are the same reason, but without this reason, the Ai family still wants to save him."
Emperor Zhaowu's eyes became a little cold, but his voice was still dull: "Why? I need a reason." Hearing his tone, the relationship between the mother and the son seemed to be a little problem. Seeing Wenzhuang's eyelids drooping and silent, Emperor Zhaowu's mouth slightly pulled and said softly: "If not, please don't... destroy the plan of the son minister like last time."
Empress Dowager Wenzhuang looked at him calmly and said slowly: "If you keep him, Li Hun will not be able to interfere in the civil servants; if you kill him, the civil servants will fall to the Li family."
Emperor Zhaowu curled his lips and chuckled: "Even if he is left behind, he will take his subordinates to the Li family, so it's better to kill him."
Empress Dowager Wenzhuang looked at him for a while, and smiled with a meaningless smile: "For decades, you have not believed me... How could you harm your own flesh and blood if you are a mother?"
Emperor Zhaowu seemed to be stung on his butt, and the calmness he pretended to disappear immediately. He clenched his fists tightly and gritted his teeth and said, "Mom! You only care about Brother Wu, cultivate Brother Wu, and take what belongs to him. How could you think I am also your son?"
Empress Dowager Wenzhuang's expression dimmed, lowered her eyelids again, and the rosary in her hand slashed rapidly. It was not until all the thirty-six heart-calming beads passed through her fingers that she said lightly: "You are introverted and too gentle. You are not suitable for your hard work as a fight for the throne." And..." As she said that, she looked at her son with some sadness and said softly: "This is still a life-long task. You can't let Wei Niang take care of both sons, right?"
Emperor Zhaowu chuckled and said, "What's the use of saying this now?" As he said, he supported the Emperor Panlong belt on his waist like a demonstration, and whispered: "Now I am the Emperor of Qin, so if I want Wen Yanbo to die, he will not be able to live."
Empress Dowager Wenzhuang sighed in her heart. She knew that this son was narrow-minded and extremely revengeful, but there was no possibility of reconciliation in the past. So she stopped talking to him and said directly: "He can't die! Because he can't really turn to the Li family."
"Why?" Emperor Zhaowu said these three words for the third time, and he was a little annoyed by Wenzhuang's persistence.
"Because the marriage 18 years ago was proposed by Li Hun." Empress Dowager Wenzhuang said in a deep voice: "Even if Wen Yanbo is heartless and has no knots in his heart, Li Hun will not forget this!"
