Chapter 29(2/2)
He needs to test Cao Ying's ability.
"Mr. Sir, please tell me."
"I am now studying in the Imperial College, and I have to go to Wannian County to hunt down the spies of the Southern Zhou Dynasty. So, what's the next step?"
Cao Ying almost didn't think about it, "The Imperial College can't be thrown away. Most of the students there have backgrounds. It's not necessary to make friends. After all, Lang Junming's family background is relatively low. The more you bow your head and make friends, the more those people will look down on you."
+1 point.
Yang Xuan nodded.
Lang Jun is becoming more and more leader-like.
Yi Niang beside her looked pleased.
Cao Ying looked at Yang Xuan gently, "The only thing Lang Jun can do in the Imperial College is to stand out. By the way, how is Lang Jun's cultivation?"
"It's not bad." Yang Xuan didn't know what level his cultivation level was, but it wasn't bad.
Cao Ying nodded, "This gives me greater confidence. After I entered the city, I also inquired about some information and learned that the emperor and the five surnames of his family seemed to be doing something."
"The current emperor is ruthless. During the late period of the empress' reign, the current emperor led people into the palace and successfully pushed Li Yuan, the current Supreme Emperor, to the throne. Two years later, he entered the palace again, and then Li Yuan
Abdicate and claim the title of Supreme Emperor. In the eyes of such an emperor, there is no family name, only power."
Cao Ying analyzed them one by one, "Since Li Yuan ascended the throne, he has been cleaning up the people of Emperor Xuande and Emperor Wu, including those who are filial to the emperor. The same is true after the current emperor ascended the throne."
"One emperor, one courtier." Yang Xuan said casually.
Cao Ying's eyes flashed, "Lang Jun summed it up well."
It was from a novel, Yang Xuan smiled.
"Since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, the emperor and the five surnames of the family have cooperated most of the time, and sometimes fought secretly. Although the emperor is the supreme, the five surnames of the family and the huge power behind them have made the emperor powerless. Therefore, the emperor's attitude towards the five surnames of the family has been
It’s...cooperation, confrontation, confrontation within cooperation.”
Very clear explanation.
Yang Xuan nodded slightly.
Cao Ying said confidently: "I also know that the emperor seems to be a little dissatisfied with the left prime minister. This is a hint."
Yang Xuan asked: "What hint?"
"The emperor has been on the throne for three years and has already established a firm foothold. Now all he has to do is to seize more power. With five surnames from one family joining forces, it will be difficult for him to shake him. The best opponents are the left prime minister and others."
"The Prime Minister Zuo has enlisted the help of the Wang family and the Imperial Academy, and he has some old friends around him. But since the emperor has given the hint, I am afraid that the whole family will swarm in, and Chang'an will have a storm."
This is the current background.
Yiniang added: "The princess at that time was the daughter of the left prime minister."
"Lang Jun is still an inconspicuous student now, just fishing in troubled waters." Cao Ying's eyes flashed, "Lang Jun, the suppression of Nanzhou's secret spies is an opportunity, and Lang Jun just accumulates merits."
"While Lang Jun is accumulating foundation in the Imperial College, he is also accumulating meritorious deeds in Wannian County. When the time comes, he can turn it into... a promotion."
"You all expect me to make meritorious deeds."
Yang Xuan seemed a little unhappy.
Cao Yingang wanted to explain.
Yang Xuan said: "There is an opportunity right now."
Cao Ying's eyes lit up, "Mr. Sir, please tell me."
Yang Xuan said: "I have taken credit for the seizure of more than ten boxes of treasure today."
Cao Ying's eyelids twitched and she said cautiously: "Lang Jun, this credit... although it is not small, it is not big enough."
You clearly said that the credit is very small, why don’t you get it?
Yang Xuan said slowly: "But I recalled what was wrong before. If I can prove that someone put those properties in intentionally, what credit will I get?"
