Regarding this matter, the one who amazed Feng Yong the most was Old Demon Zhuge.
As expected of a master of politics, he found the best intervention point and took the best countermeasures in the shortest possible time.
As for Adou or the Queen, they are still a bit young after all.
However, he also controlled the heat quite well, at least it did not arouse Feng Yong's resentment, and he stopped decisively.
The one at the bottom is naturally Feng Tibi.
When you are in the game, you can only rely on your feelings to know that something is vaguely wrong, and you have to wait for things to become clear before you can fully react. Failure!
There was a rare quietness in the prison, and the fire in the stove was burning brightly. Feng Yong borrowed a set of Go from Lu Yi and entertained himself. At the same time, he also thought about his own situation in this matter.
Gains and losses.
Liu Liang was taken into custody and punished by the Zongzheng Mansion, which poured cold water on those in Jincheng who were ready to take action - the emperor's attitude on this matter was very clear.
The emperor's attitude also indirectly expressed the prime minister's attitude.
"Brother was just careless and fell into the villain's plot, so he was detained by the Prime Minister for a month. It's not a big deal."
The main hall of the Huang family restaurant has now become the main activity base of the Xinghan Society.
Zhao Guang pulled up a chair, stepped on it, put his arms on his legs, and looked around at the people below. He looked like a bandit leader occupying a mountain.
"Everyone, don't believe rumors, let alone spread them."
Zhao Guang took the kettle on the table in front of him, poured himself a bowl of water, and drank it, then continued, "Just wait for brother to come out, he will definitely deal with the villain in our club."
of."
On both sides of him, Li Yi, Wang Xun, Yang Qianwan and Deng Liang were sitting in a row, except for Mi Zhao.
It’s self-evident who the villain is.
"Brother, did you really say that?"
There are still some people down there who are unsure, "That Mi Dalang... is not an ordinary person."
Zhao Guang sneered when he heard this, "No matter how powerful the Mi family is, how powerful is the Liu family? You have also seen that my brother smashed the Yuyao Pavilion. Do the Liu family dare to say a word? Liu Liang was beaten by the Zongzheng Mansion, and he is still in Zongzheng today.
He’s lying on the couch in his house!”
Others are afraid of the Mi family and the Liu family, but he is not afraid.
The master of my family is now the number one in the army, and has saved His Majesty twice. There is a sense of friendship between the Zhao family and the royal family.
In addition, thanks to the love of my brother, I have made some contributions and now have a firm foothold in the military.
No matter if you are a relative or a relative of the emperor, even if the prince comes, as long as you take advantage of it, you don't have to worry about anyone.
The most important thing is that if others don't know, don't you still know the importance of your brother to the prime minister?
Sister Guan went to her aunt to ask for help on the day her brother was imprisoned. At that time, her aunt said clearly in four words: Don't worry.
Seeing that the people below were no longer talking, but there were still some doubts on their faces, Zhao Guang felt a little unhappy, "You guys look like this, could I still lie to you?"
"Zhao Erlang, it's not that we don't believe you, but... no news has come out about my brother now, and we brothers are also worried about our brother."
"What do you mean no news?" Zhao Guang rolled his eyes, "You have no news, so don't I have news too?"
"Zhao Erlang, do you really have news about your brother?"
Zhao Guang snorted, "It's okay to tell you. I went to my uncle's house the day before yesterday and told him something. Our family is going to make the Jiweng Zhu technique public. You won't think that this matter has not been done by my brother.
Agree?"
There was a "buzz" sound, and everyone suddenly started to make a fuss.
"Erlang, Erlang, are you serious about this?"
"Erlang, if this is the case, can everyone learn from it?"
"What's the fuss about?"
Zhao Guangda shouted, looked around at the crowd of people scrambling for the first place, and slapped the table, "Brother has only been in jail for a few days? You guys look like you are going to break up. Now that you heard there are benefits, you are rushing forward again?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone looked ashamed.
After a while, someone cautiously asked, "Erlang, what should we do?"
Only then did Zhao Guang smile with satisfaction, put his feet down from the chair, took two steps back and forth, looking deep in thought, then clapped his hands and said, "Yes, in the past, it was always my brother who thought of ways to benefit our brothers, but he never
I didn’t think about myself.”
"Brother values love, we can't be unjust. Now is the time for us to do something for our brother."
"Erlang, just tell me, what do you want me to do?"
someone shouted.
Zhao Guang was not annoyed and explained, "My brother originally planned to propose marriage to Brother Guan and marry Sister Guan after returning to Jincheng. How could he have thought that something like this would happen? In that case, why not wait for me?
Just help."
As soon as these words came out, Li Yi, Wang Xun and others suddenly widened their eyes.
"The third lady of the Guan family, aren't you already in charge of your brother's house now? Why do you need our help?"
Before Feng Yong was imprisoned, the affairs of Xinghanhui were entrusted to Zhao Guang and Li Yi.
As for the affairs of the Feng family, all matters were entrusted to Guan Ji.
Guan Ji was not pretentious at all, she sat in Feng Mansion unceremoniously, like a hostess.
Although she has a cold temperament, it does not mean that she is unwilling to fight, especially when Feng Yongdu is already in prison, how can she do nothing?
Having her in charge of the Feng Mansion not only immediately calmed down the people in the Feng Mansion, but even the people in the Xinghan Society believed that nothing would happen to Feng Yongyong.
After all, the Guan family is also the home of a monarch, and the Prime Minister favors Guan Xing. If he hadn't believed that nothing would happen to Feng Yongyong, how would he have allowed Guan Ji to do this?
"Don't you know that there are rumors about my brother and the Zhang family's wife in Jincheng now? Everyone thinks that the brother is interested in Zhang's wife, how can this be done? We have to let them know that the brother is marrying Guan'a
Sister!"
Zhao Guang said categorically.
Li Yi couldn't bear it any longer, walked forward tremblingly, lowered his voice and said viciously, "Erlang, brother didn't tell you this!"
The matter between my brother and the two girls Guan and Zhang is already messy enough, how could I and others get involved in it blindly?
"This is for us as younger brothers to share our worries with our elders."
Zhao Guang waved his hand and said, "Brother will definitely thank us when he comes out."
"I think my brother will beat you to death!"
Zhao Guang has followed his brother for the longest time, and in the eyes of everyone, he is the person whom his brother trusts the most. Li Yi naturally has no way to refute Zhao Guang's face in front of everyone, but he gritted his teeth and said in his heart.
"In this matter...do you want to ask your brother first?"
someone asked hesitantly.
After all, it is about the reputation of the elder brother and the third wife of the Guan family. If they do this, what if the elder brother is unhappy?
"What are you afraid of? I'll take care of anything!"
Zhao Guangda took over everything, "I'm not afraid to tell you that my brother has already made plans for this public blessing of chicken and weng's skills."
As he said that, he pointed to a row of down jackets hanging next to him, "If we don't raise more chickens and ducks, how can we get a lot of down to make these down jackets? Now we have taken the lead and gained a reputation first. Even if others follow suit in the future,
Then we will be crushed by it."
Didn't my brother say the same thing when he made this woolen cloth?
Zhao Guang took it directly and changed it slightly.
Down jackets are now sold in Jincheng. After all, they were the clothes worn by the emperor himself, which added a noble touch to the clothes.
When everyone heard this, they finally came to their senses and thought that their brother was really far-sighted.
At the same time, they all thought in their hearts, if it were really arranged like this by my brother, wouldn't it be another woolen cloth business?
At the thought of this, everyone's hearts were filled with heat.
Hanzhong Maobu himself has no chance to get involved. If he lets this down jacket business slip away from his hands again, he will really regret it with his heart turned blue.
Before he finished thinking about it, he heard Zhao Guang knocking on the table again and continuing to say heart-wrenching words.
"Brother has plans later, and the benefits will be much greater than this down jacket, but I can't say it yet. After brother comes out, when the time is right, I will discuss it with everyone."
"Erlang, you don't need to say it! Brother, among the dragons and phoenixes, how can ordinary women be worthy of it? I think that the third lady of the Guan family, after the prince, is also known as the tiger girl, it is rare to be worthy of it.
Having sex with your brother’s girl, the two are a perfect match!”
"Yes, yes! Moreover, my brother and the third wife of the Guan family are in love. Isn't this a good marriage arranged by God?"
"That's right. As brothers, how can we let our elder brother miss the wedding we are waiting for?"
"We must let the world know that Mrs. Guan Sanniang is my brother's beauty..."
someone shouted.
Zhao Guang smiled with satisfaction.
So two days later, I heard that Guan Junhou accidentally broke two long knives while practicing martial arts.
Just as the Jincheng veterans were happily eating melons, the Prime Minister's Mansion welcomed a somewhat special guest.
"Li Feng has met the Prime Minister."
Li Yan's son Li Feng had just rushed back to Jincheng from Yong'an and came directly to the Prime Minister's Mansion.
"You don't need to be polite." Zhuge Liang was very happy to see Li Feng, "Is it okay for Zhengfang to be in Yong'an? You came here this time, but what good news did Zhengfang have?"
"Back to Prime Minister, everything is well with you. Your Excellency received news from Xincheng Mengda a few days ago, so you ordered Feng Feng to travel day and night to deliver the message."
"Oh, seriously?" Zhuge Liang said in surprise, "I didn't expect Meng Da to reply so quickly?"
"That's right. Prime Minister, I heard from you that Meng Da really has the heart to return to the Han Dynasty."
A delighted smile appeared on Li Feng's face, and he took out the envelope from his arms and said, "What your Excellency has said is all in it. Please take a look at it, the Prime Minister."
"Okay!" Zhuge Liang couldn't wait to take the letter, suppressing the joy in his heart, and looked at Li Feng again. Although his face looked tired, his demeanor was still as gentle as jade, and he couldn't help but nodded secretly.
Zhuge Liang could only be heard saying in a warm voice, "Da Lang rushed to Jincheng from Yong'an. He must be tired. Let's go down and have a rest first. I will take you to see someone tomorrow."
"I wonder who the Prime Minister wants Feng to see?"
Li Feng asked respectfully.
"This man is quite famous. I think you must have heard of him. His surname is Feng and his first name is Yong. He is a rare and talented person."
Li Feng was overjoyed when he heard this, "Feng has heard about Feng Langjun for a long time! He has long admired him, but he has no way of knowing him. If he can be introduced by the Prime Minister in person, he will be really happy."
Zhuge Liang smiled and shook his head, "You are a gentle gentleman, but that boy is not. When we meet tomorrow, I just hope not to be disappointed."
Li Fengxi said diligently, "I will definitely not be disappointed. Feng Langjun has been reciting his articles tirelessly for a long time. Hearing that this time Prime Minister Feng Langjun came up with another strange strategy during his southern expedition, Feng couldn't wait to have a long talk with him at this time."
"
After saying that, he bowed again and said, "When I meet with distinguished guests tomorrow, Feng needs to take a good rest to recuperate his energy so as not to lose his etiquette. Prime Minister, Feng will retire first."
"Well, you go ahead."
After Li Feng withdrew, Zhuge Liang directly opened Li Yan's letter and read it.
It turned out that the beginning was indeed as Li Feng said. Li Yan relayed Meng Da's reply, saying that he wanted to work with his beloved, and also talked about how he had pacified Sichuan and Shu with the late emperor.
"It seems that I have to write a letter to Mengda."
Zhuge Liang said to himself with a smile on his face.
However, later on, Li Yan changed the subject and began to talk about the Southern Expedition, saying that the prime minister worked tirelessly and personally led the army to the south, and he was worthy of being a model for the ministers.
The reason why he was able to quickly pacify Nanzhong was because he was extremely talented and could not be matched by others.
Zhuge Liang frowned slightly when he saw this.
Everyone knows that the Prime Minister of the Han Dynasty likes people who do practical things and does not like people who are flattering, so now the official administration of the Han Dynasty is relatively clear.
Li Yan's words made Zhuge Liang a little disgusted.
Unexpectedly, later on, Li Yan began to detail the Prime Minister's previous contributions. The further he went, the more serious his exaggerations became.
The pacification of Nanzhong has been said to have made great contributions to the Han Dynasty, comparable to Huo Guangkuang's support of the Han Dynasty.
At this time, Li Yan expressed his intention: the prime minister should accept Jiuxi, become a noble and king.
He also expressed his willingness to follow the Prime Minister's lead and take the lead in writing a letter to His Majesty.
After Zhuge Liang read it, his complexion immediately turned livid, and he couldn't help but slapped the case with a bang!
He yelled angrily: "Shuzi is bullying me!"
Jiuxi are nine kinds of ritual utensils given by the emperor to princes and ministers with special honors.
They are chariots and horses, clothing, Lexian, Zhuhu, Nabi, Huben, ax and ax, bow and arrow, and Qian.
This is the highest courtesy from a human minister.
But from Wang Mang to Cao Cao, Jiuxi has changed.
Nowadays, if a mortal minister can enter Jiuxi, it means that he is always ready to usurp the throne.
For the prime minister of the Han Dynasty, who always aimed to revive the Han Dynasty and return to the old capital, Li Yan's words were nothing short of the most serious insult to himself!
But after all, Zhuge Liang was the one who held the power of the Han Dynasty. He had seen many big storms and waves. While being angry, he began to think about the intention of Li Yan's words.
Is this what he originally meant, or is he testing himself?
If he is sincere, then this person will definitely not be able to stay. At least, he will have to find a way to demote him to a civilian position and will not be allowed to serve as an official in the court again.
If it was a test... that would be too bold. Is this something that can be discussed between ministers?
Zhuge Liang took a few steps back and forth, thinking of the palace's actions in the past few days, and his doubts deepened. Is there any connection... between them?
It's just that after all, Li Yan was a person entrusted by the late emperor to guard Yong'an, he had the authority to take holidays, and he had all the elite soldiers left by the late emperor.
If he really has evil intentions, then the situation that the big man can easily settle will become turbulent again.
Today's big men really can't afford to be messy anymore.
When Zhuge thought of this, he let out a long sigh and frowned tightly.
At this moment, a servant came over to report that Chen Zhen had been ordered to visit the house.
Zhuge Liang's heart moved and he ordered: "Invite him in."
