Chapter two hundred and eighty ninth movement is worse than stillness
"Let me tell you, this apple is the most delicious from the Wang family..."
Li Yi gnawed on half an apple with two holes missing, handed over a piece of paper, and said: "The Zhang family in Pingyang, the Gou family in Tongzhou, the Wei family in Yunzhou... these big families have already sent their horses back.
Yes, the court gave them enough preferential treatment this time, so I think they should know what to do.
As for the others, there is nothing to worry about. The Zhang family and the Wei family have a very delicate position among the various sects.
The family comes first, and they cannot bear the public opinion."
Li Mingzhu looked at him, thought for a moment, and said seriously: "You really don't have to think about entering the palace. Power, wealth, glory and wealth... I can give you whatever you want."
"I won't consider it." Li Yi shook his head and said decisively.
Power, wealth, glory and wealth... he didn't mean anything right now. There was no sincerity in this invitation, and there was no need to consider it at all.
Her Royal Highness took a bite of the apple and said, "I don't know what they will do next..."
"No matter what kind of action there is, that's it." Li Yi threw away half of the apple core, clapped his hands, and said, "It's good if there is action. If they are all quiet, I don't know where to start."
Whether it is the Yu family's embarrassment, this time's rebellion among the powerful, or all the previous incidents, in most cases, it starts with the other party seeking death. If you really want him to take the initiative to design and target, it will be a waste.
Time and energy are wasted, it is not as simple and trouble-free as it is now.
However, after suffering so many losses in succession, the King of Shu is still hiding in Shuzhou. They have also suffered a lot in Kyoto or other places. They should be stable for a while. Ruyi is about to give birth, and Li Yi doesn't want to be anywhere else.
After all the hard work and effort, if they can make it through this year safely, should they be gentler when they start next year?
…
Cui Qingze, the head of the Cui family, put down a piece of paper and said: "There is news from the palace. The empress said that in recent months, it is better to be quiet and not to move. You just need to pay more attention to the eldest princess."
"Everyone has seen the performance of the eldest princess in government affairs in recent days. She is more cautious in handling political affairs than His Majesty was before." Someone frowned and said: "Besides, she was transferred from various ministries.
Which of those people is a simple person? Just waiting for the princess to make a mistake is probably the worst way to do it, right?"
Cui Qingze didn't know that this was the worst method.
However, they moved, but the more they moved, the greater the losses. In less than a month, the Yu family was gone. The aristocratic family that had finally united together became distracted and confused because of a broken book.
Different, the eldest princess or the Marquis of Li County used precise and ruthless methods to show off their tricks. How could they dare to take action again?
Without absolute certainty, he would not dare to act rashly.
Calculating carefully, he didn't dare to calculate how much the power of the King of Shu had been lost in the past two years. There was no fight for the right to inherit the throne, and there was no mutual attack between factions. How could the situation become what it is now?
?
After careful consideration in the past few days, for the first time in his heart, he was less than ten percent confident about something.
"In short, these days are more stable. The children in the family should also be more restrained and don't let others take advantage of them..." Cui Qingze stood up and waved his hand in some annoyance, "That's it for today."
The head of the Cui family spoke, and everyone in the hall stood up to leave.
When walking out of Cui Mansion, Zeng Shichun paused and said, "Brother Chen, are you still going to Yangliu Lane today?"
"Same journey." Chen Chong stepped out of the gate of Cui Mansion and nodded slightly.
Watching the two figures go away, someone finally couldn't help it and wondered: "When did the Zeng family and the Chen family get so close?"
"I've never heard of any other connection between the two families. It's really strange..."
Everyone was confused, but they didn't pay too much attention to it. After all, both families belonged to the lineage of the King of Shu. Even if there was some connection that was different from usual, it was not an incomprehensible thing.
It is still the teahouse in Yangliu Lane.
Zeng Shichun took out a piece of paper from his sleeve, handed it to Chen Chong, and said: "This is what I have compiled. In the past two years, the major and minor events that have occurred in the court, as well as the gains and losses of the Shu king's lineage in these events, Brother Chen
You might as well take a look.”
Chen Chong glanced at him and then looked at the paper in his hand.
"The Cui family's decades-long layout in the court has been almost destroyed in the past two years. His Highness the King of Shu's current advantage is that he is the eldest son of Concubine Cui... and he only has this emperor.
He is the eldest son."
Zeng Shichun's eyes were slightly erratic, and he said slowly: "Unfortunately, everyone including the Cui family and the imperial concubine were blinded by this identity. They seemed to have forgotten that it was Your Majesty who ultimately decided this matter."
"His Majesty's attitude towards the King of Shu is really not the attitude towards the eldest son of the Emperor. Although what His Majesty did was really too confusing, he has been sent to Shuzhou for a year. His Majesty is ill and would rather choose the eldest princess.
, and will not call His Highness back... Zeng really can’t figure it out.”
"Gains and losses..." Chen Chong put down the paper, twitched the corner of his mouth and said, "I'm afraid there are only losses and no gains, right?"
…
Li Yi sent Miss Chen Jiasan out of the hospital and said: "There will be more than a month left. The imperial doctor will check her pulse every few days. I just invited Master Tanyin over yesterday to have a look. Everything is fine. You don't need to
Concerned."
These days, he comes here very rarely, but he meets her every time.
"That's good." Miss Chen San smiled and nodded. Seeing the figure at the entrance of the alley, she said, "It's getting late, I'm going back."
Li Yi watched Chen Chong leave with her, and turned to Zeng Shichun who was standing aside.
"Last time I met Qin Shangshu, he also said that the Ministry of Revenue was busy with affairs, and Her Royal Highness the Princess had taken away another person, which made her a little overwhelmed..." Li Yi looked at him and said doubtfully: "Shilang Zeng is so interested every day. See
Get up, you don’t look very busy.”
Zeng Shichun smiled slightly, didn't care, and said: "This time, I specially waited for Marquis Li County."
"Wait for me?" Li Yi looked at him in surprise.
Zeng Shichun looked at him, stretched out his hand to the side, and said, "I wonder if Hou Fang of Li County would like to have a chat in the teahouse?"
The Zeng family is a staunch lineage of Shu kings. Although they are not life-or-death enemies, they are definitely not friends.
If there was any connection, it was because he ate his own dumplings without paying.
I'm afraid the dumplings made by the Marquis of Chang'an County are not worth a cup of tea, right?
Although the price of this cup of tea is not low, this teahouse is owned by the family. Although the tea is expensive, it only sells the same style. As for the cost... it is not comparable to outsiders. 8)
