Chapter 6012 It’s a showdown, I’m just being biased
After Chen Xi informed the big guys in the Political Yuan, he didn't bother to care about what they thought. To be honest, Chen Xi wouldn't stop him from doing anything he wanted to do. Now that he has reached this point, it's no longer a question of whether to stop him or not. Speaking in good conscience, Once notified, Chen Xi never thought of blocking it.
Sun Qian and Jian Yong were also forced to return later. To be honest, when they heard this, they knew it was a lot of trouble and didn't want to deal with it. In addition, both sides still had a lot of work to do, so they both wanted to do it. Forget it, I just pretend to be dead. After all, one of the twelve elders has the capital.
As a result, after Chen Xi didn't come back at the time he estimated, Chen Xi wrote a letter in person. Both of them ran back helplessly. There was nothing to say. Chen Xi had already written the letter in person. It was really impossible not to come back, even if the two of them didn't come back. The reasons are very good - I only have a daughter, she is married, and I have no offspring, it is none of my business!
"In short, this is the cause and effect of the matter." Chen Xi explained to Sun Qian and Jian Yong very calmly. The two of them were helpless, and there was nothing written on their faces, "What's the use of telling us two, we two can't even enclose the land" No, no one will inherit the hereditary princes, you can do whatever you want.
"Zichuan, do you listen to the truth or lies?" Jian Yong and Chen Xi have known each other for more than ten years. If the other party stopped him and asked about something that could have been ignored, he had to give a formal answer. , it’s just a formal and official answer, it may not be the truth, so I’ll say it openly.
"I have brought you two to my home, what do you want me to hear?" Chen Xi said rather sadly. Among the twelve elders, three of them can hang up about this matter, but in front of them Jian Yong and Sun Qian are two of them.
"The truth is, Liu Ye did the right thing." Jian Yong and Sun Qian looked at each other, and then gave their answers. They have no heirs, no descendants, and hold great power. They can basically serve the public and stand in front of others. From a national standpoint, the two of them believed that Liu Ye was right.
"Sure enough, you think so too." Chen Xi nodded and said.
"Let's put it this way, after this matter is made public, all of us understand the reason why it cannot be made public, and after knowing each other for so many years, we all know that you are the smartest and most powerful among us. I'm afraid you can also understand us. Why do you think so?" Sun Qianna, whose skin was somewhat dark red due to the weather and sun, said with a bit of a smile.
"I can understand that you two are purely from the standpoint of the country, and the Kushan Essence Area is too big and belongs to the empire. Once enfeoffed, as long as the team is intact, it will have the ability to fight against the central government. You cannot think that just because this generation is loyal, The next generation will be like this too." Chen Xi nodded and said.
"No, I don't even believe in the loyalty of this generation." Sun Qian said with a sneer.
"You studied Confucianism with Kangcheng Gong, and you don't even believe in the loyalty of this generation?" Chen Xi scolded with a smile, but when he smiled and saw Sun Qian's serious expression, Chen Xi stopped laughing.
"Okay, you are right." Chen Xi sighed and said, "The reason is that it is too far away, so I chose to enfeoff."
"It's good to mix in some sand, so that they can counterattack if they are not loyal." Jian Yong said calmly, "If you give them too much, they will not be able to hold it firmly."
"Actually, it is possible." Chen Xi sighed, but did not explain in the end. Now there are already four elders who are clearly considering this matter from a national standpoint. Even these four will be affected by Liu Bei's forces. The impact is already considerable.
"Actually, I think it's fine if you make arrangements. It's up to them how much they can take. That's the essence of an empire." Jian Yong said with an indifferent expression, "Sometimes, you don't need to give the rice Feeding it into their mouths and letting them fight with those who want to snatch their fruits can also temper them."
"I can't fight, that's the problem." Chen Xi said helplessly.
"Aren't there still soldiers?" Sun Qian said casually, "And only what they grab is what they really want. What you gave is too good, but it has no real sense."
Chen Xi was thoughtful after hearing this.
"And don't just think about internal fighting. The generals under our command can't fight against the noble family. Of course, we also admit that when it comes to political struggle, even our level may not be able to fight against the noble family. Those people are really good at this. ." Jian Yong said somewhat sadly.
"To put it too much, it's too much. It's a real enfeoffment. The generals and all the major families are squatting there. They can't defeat the aristocratic families due to internal fighting. If they are infected, etc., won't they look for someone? To put it too much. , when that time comes, who will Liu Ziyang stand for?" Sun Qian looked indifferent.
"It feels like you two have changed your perspective on problems a lot in the past few years." Chen Xi smacked his lips twice and said with some admiration. At that time, Liu Ye will naturally stand under his command!
"It's not that our perspective on the problem has changed, but that you are too pursuing perfection and control. In fact, there is no need to do that. Letting go and trusting those people is also a choice. More importantly, this itself is something that must be faced. The choice is to either be assimilated into a noble family or become a noble family." Sun Qian looked at Chen Xi calmly and said.
"If it doesn't work, you can still go astray. People like Wenhe, Fengxiao, and Xiaozhi will not be weaker than the major aristocratic families in their own tactics. They also have the strength to support them. In fact, there is really nothing to fear." Jian Yong said calmly, "As for the part that will inevitably be infected, just treat it as tuition."
Chen Xi sighed twice and said nothing, thus acquiescing to the two people's answers.
After Jian Yong and Sun Qian came back, they went to the imperial prison to see Lu Su and Man Chong. Mi Zhu also made a special trip to Lu Su's house. Of course, Mi Zhu didn't intend to talk about Lu Su at first, but after going there, he I know that Mrs. Lu is critically ill.
Of course, it is impossible for people to die. If they are going to die, then they really look down on Ji Xiang's medical skills. Of course, there is no less suffering. The high-end medical skills used by Ji Xiang can even extend life, but it requires all kinds of torture methods.
When Mi Zhu went there, he thought that Mrs. Lu was critically ill, and was about to notify Lu Su, but Mrs. Lu grabbed her wrist and couldn't even struggle, so she gave up the idea and made sure that Mrs. Lu was fine.
As for Mrs. Lu's question about Lu Su, Mi Zhu couldn't say anything. He could only say that it was a big matter and it was hard to say, but the people of Lu Su would not have any life safety problems. As for other things, there was no guarantee. Then Mr. Lu
When the person wanted to ask something else, Ji Xiang came over, knocked Mrs. Lu down with an anesthetic needle, and started the treatment again.
That scene frightened Mi Zhu so much, but Ji Xiang said indifferently that it was okay and it was just normal treatment, and sent Mi Zhu back.
On the other side of the prison, compared to Lu Su, who had no one to visit, people from Man Chong's side came to see him every now and then, and today, Man Wei came to see his father.
"Dad, this is the meat porridge your daughter-in-law made for you. You can drink it while it's hot." Man Wei looked at his father squatting in the prison and felt somewhat emotional. The environment was reversed and he was a little happy.
"Is the prison's management so loose? You can even come in? How is Zhong Yu and the others managing the prison after I'm gone?" Man Chong looked at Man Wei and said with some dissatisfaction.
"Come on, you, the people in this local jail either committed suicide or went out after a while, and still no one can afford to offend them. Those who can go to prison are all big shots. Without a clear order, who dares to stop him?"
Man Wei said angrily that he was already married and had a serious source of income. Although he was eating soft food, the food was very delicious, so naturally he was not afraid of his father.
"But, even if you can come in, there is already something wrong with the management." Man Chong looked at his son, blowing his beard and glaring.
"Dad, sometimes you need to face up to my abilities. Maybe in your opinion, I am able to stand out now because of your protection, but in fact, without you, I have many ways to try, and I think...
, without you, I can become a two thousand stone bureaucrat." Man Wei sighed and said, "I am not the waste you think. It is difficult to get in here, but it does not mean that I can't get in without relying on you."
Man Wei's talent is very good. Even as he said, even if Man Chong does not exist, he can become two thousand stones with hard work. Of course, it is difficult to become the Nine Ministers of the Central Government, but even if he cannot do the latter
, Man Wei is already among the best.
"But one thing is, without you, I might not be able to marry Min'er." Man Wei sighed and said, "I have carefully recalled my situation. Except for marrying Min'er, I can actually do without other things."
Your reputation can do it."
Man Chong looked at his son, and Man Wei looked at his father without hesitation, "Actually, you don't need to make arrangements for me. Among these second generations, I may be considered outstanding."
It is true that he is not as good as those geniuses, but Man Wei is basically capable enough to inherit everything Man Chong left behind and support it.
"You're really conceited." Man Chong said suddenly. Man Wei's face was expressionless. He didn't want Man Chong to add another sentence after that, "It's exactly the same as when I was young."
Man Wei was stunned, it was the first time he heard such words from his father.
"Stop thinking nonsense. I will come out when the Taiwei comes back in a few days." Man Chong said coldly to Man Wei, "As long as I am still here, the Man family does not need you to step forward."
Man Wei frowned, "Is that so? Does that mean the news I received is false news? It shouldn't be."
"What news did you receive?" Man Chong asked with a frown.
"It is said that General Ganghe worked behind the scenes to seek rewards, which caused Situ and Shangshu Pushe to confront each other, and you were also affected. However, after Situ and you were imprisoned, the matter still needed to be resolved, so Shangshu Pushe gave Taiwei advice.
It is said that the elite areas of Kushan were divided, and meritorious ministers will be rewarded after the war." Man Wei did not hide it from Man Chong, and directly told what he knew.
Man Chong's face became much uglier in an instant. Even if the news was not completely correct, it was not something Man Wei should know. "From what source did you learn this news?"
"Ah?" Man Wei looked at Man Chong's expression and instantly realized that there was a big problem with this news.
"This is not news you should know." Man Chong stared at Man Wei and asked.
"I've checked the source of some private rumors. They come from the palace. I can't investigate further." Man Wei is not stupid. He needs to be more certain about this kind of news.
"Go find your Uncle Liu and ask him to come over." Man Chong ordered directly to Man Wei.
Man Wei frowned and hesitated a bit, then Man Chong scolded with a livid face, "Go quickly!"
Soon Liu Ye rushed over. Man Chong looked at Liu Ye and asked directly, "Zi Yang, did you let out this news? Or did Wen Ru let it out!"
"Whoever has the intelligence system is the one who let it out. Even if I want to mix in the sand, it's not like this, and it's not at this time. And Wenru, Wenru hasn't decided who to side with yet. I'm worried now.
What's more, Wen Ru directly lowered the lower limit of canonization to level six!" Liu Ye shook his head and said, he and Man Chong have nothing to hide, who is following the other.
"Fengxiao!" Man Chong gritted his teeth and said, "if it spreads out so early, it will become an open secret. Isn't that time for the major families to prepare?"
"No, from Fengxiao's point of view, directly show your cards and make your position clear, just say that I am trying to be biased, which is also a way of thinking." Liu Ye waved his hand and said, "It is impossible to hide this secret.
It makes no difference whether it is a few days earlier or a few days later. When the Taiwei comes back, it will be announced to the middle and upper levels, and all the major families will know about it on the same day."
It is simply impossible to expect those in the middle and upper classes not to spread the word. It is not a question of strictness or lack of strictness, but that these people are not entirely on the same side. Some of them themselves are side branches of the aristocratic family, and at other times there may be side branches fighting direct lineage.
The idea is that now that they have this opportunity, they will also notify the family to make preparations in order to eat more.
So it is simply impossible to hope that it will not be spread outside the country.
In fact, as long as Chen Xi passes it on to the Twelve Elders and top generals, it will be passed on to others.
Guo Jia just realized that if he didn't make his attitude clear first, Liu Bei's return would have to be spread in a few days. At that time, saying this would not be a deterrent, so he might as well go ahead and tell the major families clearly that I am just guarding against you, and
I'm earlier than you know, I'm more prepared, and I'm ready to fuck you, just come if you feel like it!
"He alone is not enough!" Man Chong said through gritted teeth.
"No, he will soon be more than one person. His attitude is also to make up for the loss, and it is the most effective way to make up for it - tell the middle and upper management of the military directly, you are afraid of nothing, even though you are at the wrong time,
You chose the wrong way and your interests were damaged, but we people are still alive and will stand in your position." Liu Ye waved his hand and said.
Playing conspiracy at this time? The more you are immersed in conspiracy, the less likely you are to defeat all the major families!
Ah, there will be another update later. This month, it’s the end of the month. If you have votes, please cast your vote. It will end silently tomorrow.
