Chapter 357: Taizong's Last Words?
Han Yi didn't know that they had entered the Imperial History Terrace, and he didn't know what was going on in it, but it didn't matter, this token was enough to explain everything, that is, Zheng Shanxing and they were already on Li Zhi's side.
In the small courtyard behind Lu Shigua's pharmacy, Lu Shigua and Wang Xuandao sat facing each other, with a chessboard in the middle, black and white.
Wang Xuandao stroked the little turtle in his hand with one hand, and his eyes were full of confidence.
But Lu Shigua frowned, and the sunspot in his hand couldn't fall for a long time, and suddenly, he threw the sunspot into the porcelain jar on the side, and sighed: "I lost again." Six years ago, I was within ten sons of you, but six years later, I have lost thirty of you. ”
Wang Xuandao showed that signature stingy smile, "Brother Lu, why should you be humble, you have spent all your thoughts on saving the world, and I, a layman, just play chess with myself at home all day long, if Brother Lu can be like me, I think Brother Lu's chess skills are above me." ”
Lu Shigua shook his head and said: "You flatter me with this, if I practice every day, I may not lose thirty sons, but I will never be able to beat you, since you were a child, you have an unparalleled talent in chess, which I am ashamed of." ”
"Haha!"
Hearing a hearty laugh suddenly sounded outside the door, I saw Zheng Shan walking in and said, "Brother Lu, you are humiliating yourself again." ”
Lu Shi hexagram said: "Huh? You're back. ”
Zheng Shanxing said angrily: "You are embarrassed to say that we will advance and retreat together, but on the first day of taking office, let me go alone, it is really unjust." ”
Lu Shigua apologized: "You know that I am most annoyed by the hypocritical people in the officialdom, and I know what it is like if I don't go." ”
Zheng Shanxing said: "Do I like it very much? ”
Wang Xuandao smiled slightly and said, "Brother Zheng, after all, you are half a businessman, and you have always learned a little hypocrisy. It's up to you. ”
Zheng Shanxing snorted and said, "Don't be complacent, you will have to go to the official office sooner or later, do you think you can hide." ”
Lu Shigua sighed and said, "If you can hide for a while, count it for a while." In fact, you can also not go, because you are worried about Brother Han, so you can't help but go. ”
Wang Xuandao said curiously: "Did those imperial histories bully Brother Han?" ”
Zheng Shanxing smiled and said, "When I go." He's sitting in the corner looking at the roster of officials, what do you say? ”
Lu Shigua sneered: "I know that this is the case, it is really hopeless." ”
Wang Xuandao asked: "Could it be that Brother Han will succumb to them, but I remember that Brother Han even dared to collide with Chu Suiliang." ”
Zheng Shanxing said with a smile: "I also thought the same way before, I was afraid that Brother Han would make a big fuss about this Yushitai on the first day he took office, so I went over to take a look, and I only knew that I was worried in vain." Brother Lu's ancestors have a good saying, it is not what I want, not what I want. ”
Wang Xuandao nodded and said, "I see." ”
Lu Shigua suddenly asked, "Could it be that Brother Han is still looking at the roster in the official office?" ”
"He's hiding in the doorway and eavesdropping on us." Zheng Shanxing pointed his hand behind him.
"I know you can't be trusted."
Before the words fell, Han Yi walked out from behind the door, with an embarrassed look on his face, and arched his hand towards Wang Xuandao and Lu Shigua: "Lu Gongzi, Wang Gongzi." Don't come unharmed. ”
Lu Shigua smiled and said, "Brother Han, this move is not a gentleman. ”
Han Yi laughed. said: "Being an official in the Imperial History Tower, who can be a gentleman, I still don't believe it." He stepped forward and said with emotion: "You are still chic, if you don't take office, no one will say more." Instead, I received some greetings, and I went early, for fear of being caught, only to see that they were preparing to impeach me, if I didn't go. Wouldn't they be impeached to death? ”
Wang Xuandao smiled slightly: "Brother Han is too modest, even the household servant can't help you, not to mention those imperial histories, if they are really impeached, I really don't know who was impeached to death." ”
Zheng Shanxing hahaha: "Xuandao, you are worthy of being deeply versed in metaphysics, this sentence can be said to be to the point!" ”
This guy always speaks so poorly. Han Yi smiled and quickly changed the topic: "Hey, who among you has the highest chess skills?" ”
Lu Shigua said: "Xuandao is known as the world's first white clothes, Cen Wenwen was a scholar, good at holding blacks, preemptive, never lost, there is no opponent in the court, and Xuandao is good at holding white, likes to strike later, and has never lost, but it's a pity that Xuandao didn't compete with Cen scholars, and I can't know who is stronger in black and white, it's a pity." ”
"That's not either." Zheng Shanxing laughed and said: "Brother Lu, have you forgotten that the female demon was better than the twenty-eighth son of Xuandao." ”
Wow! My wife's chess skills are so good, why haven't I heard her blow, it's really weird. Han Yi was taken aback when he heard this.
Lu Shigua said: "That's all the tricks used by the female devil behind her back. ”
I see. Han Yi nodded silently, this is in line with Xiao Wuyi's character.
Wang Xuandao said lightly: "The past is over, why should the two brothers mention it again." ”
Zheng Shanxing and Lu Shigua glanced at each other, both smiling and silent.
Han Yi looked curious, and thought to himself, what kind of immortal method did the fairy use, it seems that he will have to inquire another day. He smiled and said, "The three sons are really unkind, such a big thing is hidden from me." ”
Lu Shigua first glanced at Zheng Shanxing, then smiled slightly, and said, "I thought that when you said those words, you had already expected today. ”
Han Yi shook his head and said truthfully: "I didn't expect this, I just tried to work hard, Wang Gongzi has a good saying, this plan is in people, and it is in heaven to make things happen." ”
Lu Shigua looked at Han Yi and said, "Then please forgive me for taking the liberty of asking, what are you planning?" ”
Han Yi was stunned and said with a smile: "For a person like me, seeking a career is nothing more than two possibilities, either I want to be among the nobles, take revenge on society, and take revenge on those who look down on me, or I want everyone to be the same as me." What do you think I'm up to? ”
Lu Shigua nodded with a smile and said, "But we are all from the scholar clan, and you are from a humble family, do you really think we can cooperate?" ”
Han Yi smiled: "If you can't, then why do you want to enter the Imperial History Terrace?" ”
Lu Shigua said: "Do you believe us? ”
Han Yi smiled and said, "Because this is the only bargaining chip I can get your trust in." ”
Lu Shigua said: "But do you know that we all like to be emotional. One of the reasons why we have always been reluctant to become officials is that we are afraid of endangering our family and friends. It's never a smart idea to work with us. ”
Han Yi smiled bitterly: "I don't necessarily have to be very rational, otherwise I wouldn't have put on this official robe, and I wouldn't be stupid enough to argue with the household servant." But I think that if a person loses the pursuit of his dreams, it is difficult for him to succeed, and in the process of pursuing his dreams, feelings and passions are indispensable, and people who are too rational are prone to lose both of them, so they feel afraid, besides. Since I have chosen this path, I have already bought the coffin first. ”
Wang Xuandao smiled slightly: "I don't know if you're really ready, anyway, I'm really ready, because our enemies are too strong." ”
Lu Shigua nodded, was silent for a moment, and then said: "But unfortunately, to defeat this powerful enemy, the first thing we have to face is the first person in the dynasty, Changsun Wuji. ”
Han Yi smiled knowingly when he heard it. He gave Lu Shigua two grateful glances.
Zheng Shanxing stood in the sun, and he also smiled. Then he said: "Now that the eldest grandson Wuji is in power, we may not know how much power he has, and a few of us are just petty officials who have just entered the office, can we really defeat him?" ”
"Not necessarily."
Han Yi and Wang Xuandao said at the same time.
Wang Xuandao looked at Han Yi in surprise and said, "Brother Han." Do you see this too? ”
Han Yi was puzzled: "I don't know if you mean what I think in my heart." ”
Zheng Shanxing asked curiously: "What are you referring to?" ”
"Emperor Taizong."
Wang Xuandao and Han Yi said in unison.
Lu Shigua was stunned and said, "Do you mean? ”
Wang Xuan said: "I think that Liu Bang, the ancestor of the Han Dynasty, went from a small Pei Gong to later defeated Xiang Yu and created the prosperous era of the Han Dynasty, how powerful this is. But after his reunification, he still couldn't avoid killing Han Xin, Yingbu and other generals with outstanding military achievements. And Taizong Shengshang also unified the whole country by force, but among the twenty-four heroes of Lingyan Pavilion, except for Hou Junji who rebelled and was killed, the rest all got a good death, which shows that Taizong's saint's imperial skills are far better than Han Gaozu. ”
"I see."
Zheng Shanxing said: "In the late Zhenguan period, in fact, the eldest grandson Wuji once held too much power, and the eldest grandson Wuji and Taizong Shengshang were friends of cloth, and the person who knew the eldest grandson Wuji best was none other than Taizong Shengshang, and the problem was in this minister. ”
These guys, usually just talk about some things that they don't have, either divination or medical skills, and doing good deeds, and only now have they taken out their real skills, which is really hidden deep enough! Fortunately, I'm not bad either. Han Yi saw that he had talked about this, and knew that it was time for him to show some skills, and said: "Yes, the problem lies with the minister of Gu Ming, I heard that before the death of Taizong Shengshang, he personally entrusted his current majesty to the eldest grandson Wuji and Chu Suiliang, but according to the psychology of the emperor, he is usually happy to see the two factions fighting in the court, however, the eldest grandson Wuji and Chu Suiliang are all in the same voice, could it be that Taizong Shengshang handed over power to them, didn't he think that they would empty the imperial power?" ”
These are difficult to hear, they are all told to him by Xiao Wuyi, but his talent is to find out some unusual things from some seemingly ordinary things, because he has to pretend to be some strangers at any time, how to imitate the characteristics of these strangers, this is his ability to survive.
Zheng Shanxing frowned and said: "I have also considered this, but you must not forget that before His Majesty ascended the throne today, the princes died and exiled in order to compete for the East Palace, and some of the ministers supported the abolished prince, some supported King Wei, and some supported King Wu. ”
Lu Shigua said: "And Taizong Shengshang and the eldest grandson Wuji are friends in cloth, and the relationship between the monarch and the minister can be described as unprecedented, not only that, but the eldest grandson Wuji is the uncle of His Majesty today, and it is very likely that Taizong Shengshang believes in him." ”
Wang Xuandao said: "Although what you said is not unreasonable, but the emperor is always the emperor, I always feel that Taizong Shengshang must have left a back move, otherwise, with the current situation, there is no way to defeat the eldest grandson Wuji, after all, he has been the prime minister for thirty years, and now most of the important ministers in the court are his people." ”
Lu Shigua said: "In other words, if we can find the legacy left by Taizong Sheng, we will be able to defeat the eldest grandson Wuji." ”
Zheng Shanxing nodded, looked at Han Yi again, and said, "Brother Han, what do you think?" ”
Han Yi said: "I agree with Wang Gongzi's words, although the friendship between Taizong Shengshang and the eldest grandson Wuji is indisputable, but I heard that the princes competed fiercely back then, and don't forget, Taizong Shengshang also ascended to the throne through the change of Xuanwu Gate." According to human nature, it is impossible for Taizong to prevent this, why Liu Bang killed Han Xin is very simple, it is because he relied on Han Xin to get the world. You are quite right earlier, Admiral Taizong entrusted His Majesty to the eldest grandson Wuji and Chu Suiliang to prevent the resurgence of those princely forces in the court, since he can think of this, then he should think of guarding against the eldest grandson Wuji. ”
Speaking of this, he suddenly tightened his eyebrows and said: "There is another point, which can also be proven, that is, the case of Fang Yiai's conspiracy." ”
Wang Xuan nodded and said: "Yes, whether the Fang family Erlang's rebellion case is true or not, in fact, the eldest grandson Wuji used this to eradicate all the important ministers of the court who are not good for him, why did he do this, I guess he also guessed this, but he didn't know who the person arranged by Taizong Shengshang was, so he had to kill." And what I'm most worried about is that I'm afraid this latter move has been eliminated by the eldest grandson Wuji first. ”
Lu Shi hexagram said: "Who are you referring to?" ”
Wang Xuandao squinted slightly and said, "Jiangxia King Li Daozong." ”
