Zhang Daan is actually Li Xian’s adviser. Who would dare to believe it?
Li Qinzai looked at him in shock and said nothing for a long time.
Li Xian originally had a good reputation among the government and the public, and was said to be a relatively elegant and gentle vassal prince. The courtiers commented that he had the demeanor of a gentleman.
But now Li Qinzai discovered that Li Xian could even take someone like Zhang Daan as his adviser. Li Qinzai couldn't help but begin to doubt Li Xian's taste, and then doubted whether Li Xian's conduct was as good as the legend said.
Even if the rumors are true, with Zhang Daan as a rat excrement, the soup under Li Xian's command should change its taste, right?
"Are you an adviser to His Highness King Pei?" Li Qinzai looked him up and down, from his hair to his toes.
Zhang Daan puffed up his chest: "Of course, am I not worthy?"
Li Qinzai narrowed his eyes. Is there really something special about this guy that made him look at him differently?
After teaching students for several years, Li Qinzai was able to make pretty good guesses about other people's IQs. Zhang Daan gave him the impression of pure stupidity and said he was a playboy who did all kinds of evil. Li Qinzai did not object, saying that he had a strategy and could be beaten to death.
Not out.
"Of course you are worthy. You are worthy of King Pei..." The corners of Li Qinzai's mouth twitched slightly.
Zhang Xiangxiang, who was next to him, couldn't bear it anymore and slapped him again.
"How dare you talk nonsense in front of Mr. Li!" Zhang Elephant said angrily.
Then Zhang Xiangxiang explained to Li Qinzai with an apologetic look.
Zhang Daan did hang out with Li Xian, but he was not an adviser.
When Prince Li Hong was seriously ill, Li Xian was summoned to Chang'an by emergency secret. Many people in Chang'an heard the news, but Zhang Da'an was the most active one. Before Li Xian entered Chang'an, Zhang Da'an led his entourage in the city.
Meet him outside the city.
Because of this move and the fact that the ancestors of the Zhang family were heroes of Lingyan Pavilion, Li Xian established a good relationship with him.
In the following days, Zhang Daan kept claiming to be Li Xian's adviser, but in fact, at most, he could only be considered to be in Li Xian's camp.
Li Xian had advisers from Prince Pei's palace under his command, so it was not Zhang Daan's turn to make plans.
After Zhang Xiangxiang explained, Li Qinzai suddenly understood.
However, Zhang Daan showed no embarrassment and still held out his chest and said: "I am indeed a counselor, but my brother looks down on me and thinks I am not worthy."
Li Qinzai hummed and said, "Go on and tell me what kind of situation you have set for me today."
Zhang Daan simply said calmly: "I heard that Duke Li just came out of Taiji Palace today. I don't know what your majesty talked about with you, but everyone in Chang'an knows that you are the teacher of King Xian of Ying, and Wang Xian of Ying is the rival of King Pei for the throne.
…”
"so what?"
"So, before the emperor makes a decision, I think it is necessary to suppress King Xian of England and Duke Li. It is best to make them infamous in the court and make the courtiers famous and disgusted. In this way, even if the emperor intends to make King Xian of England the prince,
, we must also consider the opinions of all the people in the world."
Li Qinzai was also a smart man and understood immediately.
"Today you stopped my carriage and deliberately started a provocation in order to force me to take action. It would be best to beat you to a bloody head, and you became the victim of this incident. You can spread the word about King Xian's teacher everywhere.
How domineering and evil, and arrogant based on merit, the students taught by such teachers can be good people, right?"
Zhang Daan pursed his lips and said nothing.
Then Li Qinzai thought of other aspects and said calmly: "I'm afraid that when we had a conflict on Zhuque Street today, there were also many imperial censors who were hiding among the crowd watching the fun, right?"
Zhang Daan still said nothing, but his expression clearly acquiesced.
Li Qinzai breathed a sigh of relief. It was really a game, with echoes from front to back, and division of labor from light to dark. They really stirred up public opinion. For him and Li Xian, it must be full of dirty water and they can't explain it clearly.
Zhang Xiangxiang, whose face was ashen next to him, raised and lowered his iron palms from time to time, as if he wanted to give his unfulfilled brother a hard blow.
But Li Qinzai said doubtfully: "A few days ago, I publicly announced outside the palace gate that I and the King of England have no dispute. Don't you know?"
Zhang Daan finally spoke: "I know, but no one believes it."
"What the hell..." Li Qinzai was furious.
Then I thought about it, when I showed the word "BuZheng", I had received a lot of gifts in advance, so the anger in my heart suddenly disappeared.
It doesn’t matter whether others believe it or not, it won’t stop me from getting rich...
"The King of England is also the legitimate son of the Emperor. His teacher holds a very important position in His Majesty's heart and in the court. With such a great opportunity in front of us, no one believes that the King of England will not fight for it." Zhang Da'an said honestly.
Li Qinzai sighed: "To be honest, King Xianzhen of England has no intention of fighting for the throne. Tomorrow I will take him to leave Chang'an and go to school to avoid the right and wrong of Chang'an City."
Zhang Daan nodded: "I understand. The strategy of you and Wang Xian is to avoid the sharp edge, hide one's strength and bide one's time, and wait for the opportunity..."
Li Qinzai sighed, he believed it, this guy was really not a counselor.
Counselors are not so rich.
Zhang Daan's motivation is also easy to understand. After the death of Zhang Gongjin in the Duke of Tan's palace, the family became increasingly depressed. Zhang Xiangxiang, who succeeded the Duke, was only a minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs. It can be seen how depressed the Zhang family was.
As the third eldest son in the family, Zhang Da'an has never reached an official position. Even in his thirties, he is still a dandy who spends all his time in government affairs.
Now that the imperial court sees Yi Chu as an excellent opportunity to stand in line and seek an official position, Zhang Daan will of course not hesitate to hug Li Xian's thigh and charge into battle for him, gaining the support of Qianlong.
Too lazy to explain, he turned around and motioned for Bu Qu to lift him to the wheelchair. Zhang Xiangxiang still apologized to him in a low voice.
Li Qinzai shook his head and had nothing to do with the two hundred and fifty.
After leaving the Duke of Tan's mansion, Zhang Xiangxiang escorted him out of the mansion.
Li Qinzai said earnestly and sincerely: "Mr. Tan is an elegant gentleman. You and I are both heroes of Lingyan Pavilion. If you don't give up, our two families can often move around..."
Zhang Xiangxiang said happily: "It's solid as you wish."
Li Qinzai said again: "But this brother of yours is really..."
Zhang Xiangxiang gritted his teeth and said: "My brother is ignorant and has offended Duke Li. I will punish him severely."
Li Qinzai sighed: "If a piece of jade is not polished, it will become useless. In my early years, I was a playboy who was full of evil, but later I woke up and changed my ways. Now I have made some small achievements. Do you know why?"
Zhang Elephant shook his head in astonishment.
Li Qinzai said solemnly: "I was beaten by my grandfather and my father. The beatings I received in those years... Oh, I won't mention it. My whole body hurts when I mention it. Later, I really couldn't stand the beatings. In order not to be beaten,
, I have no choice but to do something successful to make them happy..."
After Zhang Xiangxiang was surprised, his expression seemed to be enlightened: "If a jade is not polished, it will not become a weapon... Lord Li is very talented in literature and his principles are also excellent. It seems that he really needs to be beaten more often to become sensible."
