Chapter 894: Shasu Turmoil
The prime minister is not far from the palace, and when Rehe arrived, he saw that the carriage had been prepared outside the palace gate, and the prime minister was about to go to the court to discuss matters a few moments later.
Although Shasu is a small country, the population of the sixteen counties under its jurisdiction is not more than one million, the court will naturally not be as solemn as Zheng Guo, the queen Rona is tired of politics, usually only on the tenth day of the court, the other court meetings are presided over by the great minister Tu Lezan, more than 20 people who participated in the court meeting are all close associates of the Tule family, and the government of the Shasu country is controlled by the Tule family.
Tulezan has been a little annoyed recently, and yesterday I received news that the prince of the country of Yuche was assassinated, and it was a good thing that the warlike prince died, but the lord of the country of Weiche put the responsibility on the country of Shasu, and claimed that it was the country of Shasu who sent someone to assassinate Caroso, and set up 40,000 soldiers on the border to attack at any time.
All the soldiers and horses of Shasu Country add up to only 70,000, Lang Luo took 30,000 to the border city to garrison, for Lang Luo Tu Lezan is still very relieved, with him in the country of Weiche should be difficult to enter the army, I am afraid that the country of Huli will send troops under the pretext of the country, then the country of Shasu is really dangerous. When Roshera was alive, Shasu and Qianglan had a close relationship, watching and helping each other to defend against the enemy, since Rona became the queen, the relationship between the two countries turned into a cold talk, don't say that it is good to send troops to help, and it is good not to take advantage of the fire to rob.
Putting down the hot milk in his hand, Tu Lezan took the handkerchief and wiped his mouth, ready to get up and face up. Today, the court will discuss with everyone how to resolve the current crisis, if it is really not possible, lose some money, cut a city to Weiche country, everything is based on the overall situation, the country can not be chaotic, and the matter of Longgai's pro-government is just to take the opportunity to postpone it for two years. He is changing the city lord one after another, and in two years, the country of Shasu will be his own from top to bottom, and the forces left by Houlton in the army will be further cleared, and by that time, Longai will not be on his own.
Before the smile on the corner of his mouth spread, Long Gai thought of his father Jiang Anyi, Tu Lezan trembled in his heart, he really had to consider Jiang Anyi's reaction if he wanted to deal with Long Gai, if he annoyed him, he was afraid that he would not even be able to eat well. Recently, the spy reported that Jiang Anyi planned to go west in the Gobi, what if Zheng Guo's army came?
couldn't help but snort angrily, it seems that on the surface, he still has to let Longgai be the lord of the country, and his ambition to be the lord of Shasu has to be moved back, but it is really not possible to leave the opportunity to his son as said in the history books of the Central Plains. The maid next to her saw that the face of the big minister was displeased, and quickly knelt down and looked down at the ground silently.
The waiter outside the door came in and reported: "Great Minister, Rehe Hou will save you." Rehe was one of Tulezan's cronies, and when he saw him before the court meeting, he must have something to do, so Tulezan ordered: "Let him in." ”
"I've seen the big picture." Rehe respectfully saluted Tulezan, just as he had been when he was a guard. Tu Lezan was very satisfied with Rehe's attitude, and said with a smile: "Why did you come so early, you haven't eaten yet, sit down and talk while eating." ”
Rehe thanked him respectfully, sat down beside Tulezan, and the maid hurriedly poured milk for him. Rehe briefly told Chen Qiu about his brother Chen Han, Tu Lezan remained silent, Chen Han was Jiang Anyi's person, and he was a businessman on the surface, but he was secretly a spy planted by Jiang Anyi, but he did not accuse him. I have long seen that this fat man is not pleasing to the eye, so this time I might as well get off the donkey, drive him back to Zheng Guo, cut off Jiang Anyi's hand stretched out to Shasu, and also cut off the thoughts that the sister should not have.
"Great Minister, according to the appearance of the group of Zheng merchants described by Chen Qiu, His Majesty feels that the leader is very likely to be Jiang Anyi, the envoy of Huazhou."
"What?" The milk cup in Tu Lezan's hand fell on the table with a "clang", and the white milk dripped down the table onto the golden robe. Tu Lezan didn't care about wiping it at all, leaned forward, stared at Rehe and asked, "You said Jiang Anyi is here?" Did you catch him? ”
Rehe didn't expect the big minister to react so enthusiastically, and hurriedly responded: "Your Majesty sent Kulik with five hundred soldiers to arrest him last night, but Jiang Anyi was not found. ”
"Ran away?" Tu Lezan leaned back dejectedly, and muttered in his mouth: "Also, with Jiang Anyi's ability, how can you catch it." ”
Rehe was a little unconvinced, sat up straight and said, "Prime minister, as long as you give the order, your subordinates promise to hold him within ten days." ”
Tu Lezan remembered the dragon battle in the palace when Du Shela died, and none of the famous masters of the Western Regions were Jiang Anyi's opponents, and there was no one in Shasu who could defeat him. Thinking of what he had done during this time, Tu Lezan became frightened and commanded loudly: "Strengthen your vigilance, double the guards around me, and send people to guard in front of my mansion to guard when you enter and exit." Hot together, Xinyi City is strictly checked, and you can't slack off. ”
Rehe agreed, and secretly sighed in his heart that Jiang Anyi's three words frightened the six gods of the Great Minister, why did the Great Minister dare to deal with Prince Longgai. The chief butler Yan Zefu came in and said, "Prime minister, it's time to leave for the palace." ”
Tu Lezan said in shock: "The prime minister is unwell today, so I won't discuss the matter." Yan Zefu, a few days ago, the master who asked you to hire a courtesy can have a reply? ”
Yan Zefu said: "The asking price is too high, I am ...... with it"
"Promise to come down and let them come to the house as soon as possible." Tulezan couldn't wait to say it. Yan Zefu saw that Tu Lezan's expression was wrong, and he glanced at Rehe in surprise, and Gong Sheng should leave. Rehe saw that Yan Zefu remembered Bayan, and said in a low voice: "According to Chen Qiu, he sued Chen Han because he was instigated by Bayan. ”
Bayan? Tu Lezan was stunned for a moment, and then realized that this kid was eyeing Xiang Yuxing's money again. If there was no Jiang Anyi, Tu Lezan would have swallowed Xiangyuxing by pushing the boat, and there were many places to use money when the treasury was empty. But when Jiang Anyi came to Xinyi City, it was like a sharp knife hanging above his head, and like a sharp knife piercing into the flesh, how dare Tu Lezan act rashly.
"You didn't let people copy Xiang Yuxing, did you?" Tulezan asked.
"Your Majesty knew that Xiang Yuxing was involved in a wide range of things, but he just let people watch the door, and he didn't dare to act rashly, so he came early in the morning to ask the minister for instructions." Hot Junction Road.
Tu Lezan pondered for a moment and said: "This matter is still salvageable, you withdraw people, but secretly monitor every move of the Chen Mansion, and everyone who enters and leaves must be followed, if you find Jiang Anyi's whereabouts, tell me immediately, Prince Longgai will send more people to protect him, don't let him see strangers, and don't reveal the news from the queen." By the way, that Chen Qiu was handed back to Chen Han, and the matter of their own brother made him decide by himself. ”
…………
The soldiers in front and behind the gate of the mansion withdrew, and Kulik accompanied Chen Han with a smile and said a lot of good things to Chen Han, and then brought Chen Qiu and handed it to Chen Han. Chen Han understood that this was the matter of the lord's coming to Xinyicheng and was known by Tu Lezan, and this powerful minister was empty-hearted, for fear that the lord would retaliate.
Chen Han smiled heavily, over the years, he had trained himself from a reckless man in the army to an exquisite businessman, and the sheepskin bags with pebbles in his vault could be found. Chen Han said with a smile: "You don't need to take this misunderstanding to the general, it's just that the gold coins that the general's subordinates took from the treasury last night are still expected to be returned." The general knew that Chen's auspicious and wealthy line was actually working hard for others, and the two pairs of silver were not counted, and Chen couldn't make a difference. After the general left, Chen checked the treasury and lost twenty-six bags of gold coins, so he asked the general to return to the marquis and make the decision for the villain. ”
Kulik almost didn't spurt blood, last night's search for his soldiers took the opportunity to make a profit, twenty-six bags of gold coins Chen Han really dared to speak, just wanted to be angry and remembered when he repeatedly told him to be kind and pleasant, even if there were some grievances, he had to be patient, and his heart became more and more jealous of the fat man who was smiling and blackmailing in front of him, and said astringently: "Chen Ye's words I will bring to the Marquis of Chen, collect the troops and return home." With that, Kulik left with the centaurs like a rabbit being chased.
Chen Qiu's legs trembled, and when he saw his brother looking at him, he knelt on the ground and said, "Brother, you spare me, it's all Bayang's kid who asked me to do it, he drunk me, I don't know anything." He also asked me to take the money, and lied to me that it was an investment, brother, I was wrong, you spare me this time, I won't dare in the future. ”
Chen Han looked at his younger brother who was crying bitterly and said, "Come on, keep him in his own residence for me, and don't go out." "How to deal with Chen Qiu is up to the lord to decide.
…………
Gasvi Street is a rich area in the royal capital, and the soldiers and horses of the City Defense Division surrounded the residence of Chen Han of Xiangyuxing at night, alarming the residents of the entire street. After the soldiers and horses of the City Defense Division withdrew, the neighbors on the left and right came to inquire one after another, and Chen Han said haha, only saying that there was a misunderstanding. Soon, the news came out from the City Defense Division, and Xiang Yuxing Chen's younger brother accused his brother of being a spy, but it was found to be a false accusation. Everyone knows what the City Defense Division does, and if they want to raid the business house, they can only say that Chen Ye's hands and eyes are all over the sky, and the City Defense Department has nothing to do.
During lunch, Heji brought back the news of the withdrawal of the soldiers and horses outside Chen's mansion, and told him the reason why he heard that Chen Qiu had betrayed his brother, and finally said, "An Ye, do you have anything to say to Chen Ye?" Chen Han knew that his identity was sensitive, and he had agreed with Heji in advance how to contact him if something happened, and he did not want the two parties to meet.
Jiang Anyi thought for a while and said, "Let's wait and see what happens." ”
A turmoil seemed to subside very quickly, Chen Han knew that there were many more pairs of eyes in front of and behind the mansion, but since the lord told him to wait and see, Chen Han still took a car to the trading house every day to take care of business, and it looked no different from usual, but Chen Qiu was locked up at home by him and was not allowed to leave.
Of course, Jiang Anyi didn't come to Xinyi City to play, on the day he came, Chen Han had already told him the general situation of Sha Suguo, and it was inconvenient to go out in the past two days, Jiang Anyi thought hard about how to help Longgai, so that he could really grasp the power of the court, instead of being a puppet in the hands of the Tule family.
From Heji's mouth, I learned that the entire Xinyi City was run like an iron bucket by Tulezan, and the opposition forces in the court were either driven out of the court or submitted to Tulezan's obscenity, and it was really difficult to change the sky.
Jiang Anyi sighed, it was better for him to meet Long Gai first, see the situation and then make a decision, it is really not possible to simply bring Long Gai back to Zheng Guo, it is better than taking his life in Tulejia.
