Fang Xuanling faced the inquiry and answered truthfully: "I asked, but at that time the King of Han looked sad and silent, and most likely disappeared. Even the King of Han cannot determine the cause of death. Maybe he is really gone."
Li Er's face changed slightly, he hesitated for a moment, and said solemnly: "I think so too. Because Yuchi Baolin was framed by the Li family of Zhaojun, he had to go to Japan to look for evidence. It's my fault. He hired someone improperly. I'm afraid Yuchi Gong will not be able to do it."
You will forgive me, so you still have to go as the matchmaker."
Improper employment is just a way to shirk responsibility, but Li Er is the emperor, so it is difficult to criticize, but he also understands Li Er's true intention. It is not that he does not want to re-employ Yu Chi Gong, but he is worried that Yu Chi Gong has hatred in his heart and will send his son to
His death will be on his own head. Once enabled, what will happen if there is a rebellion?
If his son is framed, he will definitely take revenge.
Can you tolerate Yu Chigong's fiery temper?
Thinking of this, Fang Xuanling somewhat understood why Li Er suddenly asked Yuchi Gong to go home without work. It was because he was afraid!
After thinking for a moment, Fang Xuanling found that Yu Zhang was looking at him expectantly. His heart softened and he said, "Your Majesty, why don't you, Chen, Wei Guogong and Lu Guogong come together?"
"Okay, then please tell the King of Han that the wedding banquet must be held grandly and celebrated by everyone. I can't lose my daughter. He is not short of money anyway." Li Er secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
"I will carry out my will." Fang Xuanling knew Qin Huaidao's temper, but did not dare to promise.
After signaling Fang Xuanling to leave, Li Er looked at Yuzhang: "No matter what, you are my daughter, and I am your father. As a father, I naturally hope that my daughter will be happy in the future, and do not interfere with the King of Han after she gets married."
No matter what happens, just live well."
"Thank you, Father, for your consideration. I will take note of it." Yuzhang said gratefully. He couldn't help but think of half a year ago, when he hinted that after getting married, he would pay more attention to the affairs of the Han Palace and report back in time. But now he has changed his attitude and there is no need to be caught in the middle.
When I did it, I completely let go and smiled sincerely.
"Go!" Li Er waved his hand.
"Thank you, Father!" Yu Zhang saluted and left.
Li Er watched Yu Zhang leave with a somewhat complicated mood. After pondering for a moment, he shouted: "Here comes someone."
"What's your instruction?" Wang De hurriedly came in.
"I remember that there is a personal maid named Xiao'e next to Yuzhang, right? Then arrange for two more controllable maids to go there and dowry them together in the future to serve as internal agents."
"According to the decree." Wang De quickly agreed, but in his heart he thought that he would have to pass the news to the King of Han later.
"The Ministry of Punishment has sent a document implicating Wu Cairen. Please go to Ganye Temple for me and tell her to behave herself. Next time, kill everyone in the house and arrange for a few reliable people to guard her and pass the order to Ganye Temple.
No one is allowed to visit, and anyone who disobeys the order will be killed!" Li Er warned murderously.
"According to the order!"
Wang De bowed to accept the order and left in a hurry.
Li Er gathered his clothes and felt cold even though he was guarding the stove. He knew that his health was getting worse. He pondered for a long time and suddenly shouted: "Preach the decree to King Jin!"
"As ordered!" A servant outside agreed.
After waiting for a while, Jin Wang Li Zhi came in a hurry. There was a sound of wind and snow, and Li Er motioned to sit down and warm himself by the fire, and asked: "Where are you coming from?"
"Back to my father, I have come from the Imperial College. I happen to have something to report to my father. The students of the Imperial College are dissatisfied with the King of Han being the chief examiner and are jointly boycotting the exams."
"Stop taking the exam?"
Li Er narrowed his eyes, and a killing intent burst out, but it quickly disappeared, and he said in a cold voice: "How brave, what do you think of this?"
"Father, it doesn't matter what your ministers think. What matters is the opinion of the Imperial Academy's students. They believe that the King of Han is a martial artist, and that the martial arts supervising the literati examination is promoting martial arts and suppressing literature. It is a humiliation to the students all over the world. It has already formed a public outrage. When the emperor comes,
, half of the students have already signed the joint letter, and if the trend continues, I’m afraid more than half will sign it.”
"Oh, do you think the opinions of the Imperial Academy students are important?" Li Er's eyes narrowed into slits, and his tone was filled with a deep chill.
Li Zhi couldn't help but feel his scalp numb, and quickly explained: "Father, I think that the Imperial College is the highest institution of education in our dynasty, and its students are both good in character and academics. They are the future pillars of the court and cannot be ignored. Of course, the boycott is extremely bad. This is
Openly challenging the majesty of the imperial court and provoking my father cannot be ignored."
When Li Er heard this, his eyes softened a little, and he smiled and said: "You have this idea, yes, then how do you think you should handle this matter?"
Li Zhi didn't know that he had gone through the gate of hell, and continued: "Father, I think that the examiner cannot be changed, otherwise the emperor's majesty will not exist, and the court's majesty will not exist, but the attitude of the examinee cannot be ignored, and the King of Han can continue to be the examiner.
, but the selection needs to be open, fair, and fair so that candidates have nothing to say.”
"You are trying to harmonize both sides. In the end, neither party will be pleased." Li Er said coldly. Although he was satisfied with Li Zhi's proposal, it was far from enough. He took the opportunity to teach him the art of the emperor: "Remember
, The majesty of the emperor cannot be provoked, and it must be maintained even if it makes mistakes. Otherwise, if there are one, there will be two, and if there are more provocations, the majesty will be wiped out, and no government orders will be issued, and destruction will not be far away. "
"Your Majesty, do you mean to suppress the candidates? Aren't you afraid of causing public outrage in the world?" Li Zhi asked.
"Let me teach you another truth. The emperor must be above everything else. If the candidates want to make trouble, don't they still have the examiner? Let the examiner handle it. No matter what the result is, it has nothing to do with the emperor. When the dispute becomes too serious, the emperor will stand up.
Preside over the overall situation, balance all parties, be impartial, and accept both kindness and power."
"My dear minister, I understand. To put it simply, the emperor will not end up in the end. He will always only make decisions and let his ministers fight openly and secretly. Taking advantage of the opportunity, he can also weaken the strength of one party, maintain the balance between the government and the middle, and always hold the power in his hands."
Li Er smiled with satisfaction, suddenly his face became solemn, and he said: "You are very smart, but you are too benevolent and righteous, and you do things that you shouldn't do. Next time, go to the fiefdom."
"I know my mistake, I will never dare to do it again." Li Zhi was so shocked that he knelt on the ground in fear. If he really went to the fiefdom, how could he have a chance to win the world?
How can I save my goddess in the future?
"Just admit your mistake and get out!" Li Er said coldly.
…
Qinjiazhuang, the courtyard on the top of the mountain.
Qin Huaidao was handling affairs in the study, and Li Xueyan was helping beside him, sorting out and classifying the pieces of information. When he found a piece of information that was very important, he said: "Lang Jun, Li Derjian sent a letter from Feige, saying that he has received the appointment.
Duan Zan, who serves as deputy chief of staff, arranged for him to teach the special forces. In addition, there was also a letter from Brother Xue saying that the Turks sent people to Qiemo and wanted to exchange some items."
"In the middle of winter, what are the Turks doing out here if they don't hide in their yurts? Is it possible that they are short of food this year?" Qin Huaidao said in surprise.
Li Xueyan thought for a while and analyzed: "It's hard to judge. It is said that heavy snows block roads in winter and there will be no movement. There are only two possibilities for the Turks to suddenly arrive in Qiemo. One is lack of food, and the other is through trade."
After all, the spying situation is over, if Qiang and Loulan are suddenly occupied by us, the Turks will not be able to panic."
"Send an order to Brother Xue and ask him to agree to the transaction, but the price will be halved. No matter what the Turks' intentions are, it would be good to bring a group of war horses. With Brother Xue's prudence and talent, the Turks will not be able to take advantage. Don't worry.
But I have to remind Brother Xue to prevent the Turks from suddenly attacking after the beginning of spring."
"Understood, I'll make arrangements here." Li Xueyan agreed.
At this time, there was a knock on the door, and Qin Huaidao responded. Seeing Wang Xuance come in, his face looked strange and asked, "What happened? Come in and warm yourself by the fire."
Wang Xuance was not polite. He had been with Qin Huaidao for a while, and he had some understanding of Qin Huaidao's character. After entering the house, he sat by the stove, stretched out his red hands to warm himself, and said: "King of Han, the price in the department store is still good in the morning.
The price was the same. An hour ago, the price suddenly dropped again. I went to check it out and it was 20% lower. There were a lot fewer people coming to the market to buy."
"Twenty percent?" Qin Huaidao was a little surprised. He had already sold it at a loss of 30%. If it was lower than 20%, wouldn't he lose half of it?
After thinking for a moment, Qin Huaidao suddenly understood and said with a smile: "They want to use the low prices to attract people to go there and completely cut off the flow of people in the market. If they don't come, the market will not last for five days. This method is OK."
"Xiaguan also made the same judgment, but the price there is much lower and it is in the city. It is convenient for ordinary people to go there. We have to let people go. The Department Store has taken the lead. Even if we reduce it by another 20%, we can't compete. Xiaguan
I am stupid and I really don’t know what to do, so please ask the King of Han for advice.”
"Send someone over to purchase a large amount." Qin Huaidao said with a smile.
"What do you mean?" Wang Xuance was a little surprised.
"Their prices are low, so we send people to purchase them, especially rice and noodles, which are not easy to spoil in cold weather. Buy as much as you can, and then take them to Hanzhou to earn more. As for the market, the price cannot be lowered.
Otherwise, it will be difficult to raise prices in the coming year. As long as we buy them all, the people will not worry."
"Acquiring items from the Department Store?"
Wang Xuance was startled. Purchasing his opponent's things wouldn't be helping the evil, but he quickly realized, his eyes lit up, and he said excitedly: "The King of Han is smart, the lower their price, the greater the profit margin after our purchase, and the more they will lose."
There are so many things, you don’t have to worry about getting them in your hands, and you can make more money by taking them to Hanzhou, hahaha, wonderful, wonderful beyond words, I’ll arrange it with the official here.”
"Remember, you must arrange for new faces. Each person can only appear once to avoid arousing alarm. If you don't sell it, why don't you get more from such a good opportunity?" Qin Huaidao reminded.
