Chapter 1686: The Battle of the Outskirts (Part II)
Now, Zhang Liang actually has a lot of contradictions with Li You, the king of Qi.
Originally, Zhang Liang learned from Zhou Gui, the director of the Shuikou City Division, that after Guo Ye accepted the news that the pipa girl was his concubine, he formed an offensive and defensive alliance with Li You, the king of Qi. The two agreed to work together and use this handle to completely bring down Guo Ye.
Originally, the plan went well, but who would have thought that the plan would not catch up with the changes. Although the matter between Guo Ye and the Pipa Girl was suppressed by them, a rumor came out of nowhere that linked Li You, the king of Qi, with the Pipa Girl.
I can't explain this at all!
Most of the thieves in Douzigang were hunted and killed by the government, and Kong Congming, the owner of Dazhai, didn't know what to do, even if Zhang Liang dispatched bad people to catch a fish that slipped through the net, it was useless.
You little minion of Douzigang doesn't know about the Pipa Girl, what can you mean? You have a cheap life, who knows if what you say is true or false? Besides, even if what you say is true, what does Kong Congming do, can he still use it to report to you?
As for Li You, the king of Qi himself, it is even more unclear. If there is a pipa girl in his house, don't ask, it's conclusive evidence. But what about the Pipa Girl without it? Then you don't need to ask, it was hidden by Li You, the king of Qi. The more there are no clues, the more it shows that Li You is weak-hearted, and the more it shows that he hid the pipa girl too well.
As a result, regarding the impeachment of Guo Ye, Li You, the king of Qi, has already retreated. He hoped that people would talk as little about the Pipa Girl as possible. The best thing is that from now on, no one will talk to His Majesty Li Er about the words "Pipa Girl".
As for Zhang Liang, he is bent on putting Guo Ye to death! The five major scholars personally promised that as long as Zhang Liang could bring down Guo Ye, he would give him a percentage of the dry shares of the glass business.
Blocking people's money is like killing parents! In order to become a dry stock, Guo Ye must die!
As for saying that the five great scholars only want Guo Ye to fall? Don't be kidding, last time Guo Ye helped Zhang Liang regardless of his previous suspicions, so that Zhang Liang could tide over the difficulties. This time, he will take revenge, but Guo Ye will be offended. As long as Guo Ye doesn't die, he has a chance to make a comeback, how can Zhang Liang keep such a big hidden danger?
Li You wanted to give up, Zhang Liang insisted, and the relationship between the two dropped to the freezing point all of a sudden. The reason why it hasn't completely broken down is because Li You still doesn't know whether His Majesty Li Er has heard the rumor or not.
What if His Majesty Li Er had already learned about the rumors of Li You and the Pipa Girl from other sources? Zhang Liang played the matter of Guo Ye's concubine to His Majesty Li Er, but it was a protection for Li You.
As for Zhang Liang, he was also unwilling to offend Li You, the king of Qi who had the hope of ascending to the throne, and was vague about whether to use this news to attack Guo Ye. Eventually, the two agreed to act on the opportunistic.
Now, His Majesty Li Er is going to crown Guo Ye as the king of Qi, and Zhang Liang has no scruples at all. This is when he began to speak.
"You?" His Majesty Li Er frowned, and said in his heart that Zhang Liang must not be holding back a good fart, but there was no suitable reason not to let him speak, so he had to snort lightly and said, "Let's talk about it!" ”
Zhang Liang said: "The ancients said that people do not stand without faith. Your Majesty is the Son of Heaven, and you should be more trustworthy. ”
"So, do you agree with me making Guo Ye the king of Qin?"
Zhang Liang didn't answer His Majesty Li Er's words, and said: "Your Majesty, if the minister heard correctly, you just said that as long as Guo Ye can marry Queen Shande, Guo Ye will be crowned the King of Qin?" ”
"Exactly!"
"Then the problem comes, the current situation is that Queen Shande admits to having an affair with the Duke of Qin, and as for the marriage between the Duke of Qin and Queen Seondeok, it is still far away. Your Majesty will crown him the King of Qin now, is it a little early? ””
His Majesty Li Er sneered and said, "Speaking of which, you still don't like Qin Guogong, and you do everything possible to obstruct him from being crowned Qin Guogong. ”
"Weichen didn't dare. Wechen just reminded His Majesty to strictly abide by his promise. ”
His Majesty Li Er said: "It's a high-sounding statement. Then I come to ask you, if the Duke of Qin and Queen Shande have already married, and I have made the Duke of Qin the King of Qin, what do you think? ”
The distance between Silla and Datang is thousands of miles, and what happened there, Chang'an City can only know an approximation. Maybe Guo Ye has already married Queen Seondeok. It is even possible that someone's wedding has already taken place. Guo Ye's parents are now dead, even if he doesn't inform the people on Datang's side, he can explain it.
His Majesty Li Er is forcing Zhang Liang to express his position, does he support or not support himself to crown Guo Ye as the king of Qin? If Zhang Liang agrees, then naturally there is nothing to say. If he doesn't agree, he will be punished for deception immediately! You still want me to keep my promise, and now you want me to disobey my promise and go back on my word, isn't this a crime of deception?
Of course, Zhang Liang heard the meaning of His Majesty Li Er's words, he gritted his teeth and said, "If the Duke of Qin and Queen Shande really get married, then the minister will agree with His Majesty to make the Duke of Qin the prince." ”
"Zhang Aiqing, you say it again."
Zhang Liang replied loudly: "What Weichen means is that you have no jokes, since Your Majesty has promised the Duke of Qin, he should naturally keep his word." What's more, not to mention how much credit Qin Guogong has made for the Tang Dynasty. From the perspective of this family affair alone, Queen Seondeok is the king of the county that you professed, and Guo Ye is just a prince of the country, and the men are inferior to the women, which is very unbeautiful. His Majesty's promise, Wei Chen very much agreed. ”
His Majesty Li Er said: "That's a good point. Zhang Aiqing, you can ignore your past suspicions and speak for Qin Guogong, I am very relieved. ”
Zhang Liang said: "However, Weichen still said that only when it is confirmed that the Duke of Qin and Queen Shande have become married, can he be crowned the King of Qin." It is too early to say that the Duke of Qin was crowned the king of Qin. ”
His Majesty Li Er was still not very satisfied, and said: "If the Duke of Qin and Queen Shande have not yet married, I will not reward him at all, this is unreasonable, right?" ”
"Of course! The most important thing for a ruler is to have clear rewards and punishments. Weichen believes that no matter whether Qin Guogong marries Queen Shande or not, he has basically completed the task assigned by His Majesty, but he is sure. Therefore, although the matter of sealing the Duke of Qin can be postponed. However, Qin Guogong has made such a great contribution for our Tang Dynasty, and His Majesty should personally welcome him! Not only that, but His Majesty should also bring hundreds of civil and military officials to greet him. ”
As soon as Zhang Liang said the last sentence, Wei Ting understood that this was to say the case of the pipa girl in front of the civil and military officials! Imagine, on the occasion of the suburban welcome ceremony, Guo Ye was full of spirits and was staging a good show with His Majesty Li Er.
At this moment, Zhang Liang said, Your Majesty, the most beloved courtier in front of you has already put on countless green hats for you! What kind of virtuous monarch and famous minister are you, you are simply the same acupuncture brother-in-law!
His Majesty Li Er's suburban welcome ceremony suddenly became a joke! No...... More than just a joke...... It's a huge scandal! His Majesty Li Er will be known as the Cuckold King through the ages. No...... It's not just the Cuckold King...... Instead, he was cuckolded and returned to rape. The king of the husband's reward, or ...... The Perverted King?
His Majesty Li Er is so ugly, can he not hate Guo Ye to the bone? Even if he knew in his heart that Guo Ye was framed, what could he do? Everyone is watching, the history is full of history, how to deal with it, and how can it be completely diverted by the will of His Majesty Li Er?
When the time comes, Guo Ye will fall and King Qi will ascend the throne, so won't I, Wei Ting, really become the ruler of the country?
Thinking of this, Wei Ting knelt on the ground and said, "Xun Guogong's words are reasonable, and Weichen seconded it!" ”
His Majesty Li Er asked the others again, "Ladies and gentlemen, what do you think?" ”
What else can you see?
Guo Ye's enemy Zhang Liang agreed, and Li You's father-in-law Wei Ting also agreed, so why should we be strong? Besides, compared with Guo Ye's appointment as the king of Qin, the outskirts of the Son of Heaven are not a big deal! Now, why bother?
A group of people hula lala knelt down and said, "The ministers seconded it!" ”
Only Wei Chigong stood there and said, "Your Majesty, I have something to say!" ”
