Zhao Yan was very entangled. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

On the one hand, he saw the drawbacks of delaying the establishment of reserves.

On the other hand, having experienced the matter of Prince Zhuang Wen, he knew how much impact he would have on himself if he became a prince too early.

If the prince manages well, it is possible to force the palace to take the Zen position.

And the position of the Son of Heaven that he has been waiting for for thirty years is not so easy to give up to others - his own son!

So Zhao Yan was a little depressed.

When people are depressed, they talk more.

Zhao Yan wants to talk to someone, of course he can't be an ordinary person.

This person is none other than Xie Shengtang.

Although Xie Shengtang is known to the Ministry of Internal Affairs, he is well versed in officialdom and has a sharp vision, and he must have seen a lot of tricks in today's Vertical Arch Palace, so Zhao Yan asked lightly: "Shengtang, where do you think Wang Zuo got the confidence to dare to impeach Zhang Bi?" ”

Xie Shengtang smiled in his heart, knowing that the senior official wanted to talk to someone.

So he said: "Old slave, look, Wang Shilang has no confidence at all, he is simply a dead duck with a hard mouth, and he is holding on." ”

Zhao Yan was amused, "You old turtle really saw it." ”

He also said, "Son of Tianjiao...... The moment I said Qin Hui, I felt a little worried in my heart, I was afraid that this Tianjiao would not be able to take it, and Tang Siwei would not give up, and this matter would be a big problem. ”

Xie Shengtang nodded, "Tang Xianggong still knows how to advance and retreat, and he didn't cause trouble to the officials." ”

Zhao Yan shook his head, "It's not that Tang Siwei knows how to advance and retreat, it's that Zhang Biao can stop in moderation, otherwise when Tang Sihui proposed his resignation, Zhang Biao appropriately pushed in and said that a gentleman has no jokes, and Tang Xianggong must have made a mistake since he resigned...... How do you ask Tang Siwei to pick up? ”

After a pause, he smiled a little proudly, "Zhang Bi is a chicken thief, he knows that he can't hold Tang Sihui now, so he took a step back, so Tang Sihui took the favor, otherwise do you think today's matter can be resolved so easily?" ”

is proud because Zhang Bi is a chicken thief and his own courtier.

Xie Shengtang was very surprised, "It turns out that there are such twists and turns, the old slave is stupid, and he really didn't see it." ”

I really don't see it.

After all, Xie Shengtang is just an internal servant, where can he find out the psychology of these ministers.

Therefore, language is a profound knowledge.

Sometimes the ministers only need one sentence, or even one word in a sentence, to change the fate of their political opponents in their lives - without him, grasp the key to the matter, and grasp the psychology of the Son of Heaven.

Everything can be applied to political struggles.

In terms of the skills of officialdom struggle, the essence of 5,000 years of culture is unmatched by any ancient civilization throughout the ages.

Zhao Yan laughed.

His expression was not relaxed, and he sighed helplessly, "This year's Spring Festival is not good." ”

After today's incident, the situation in the court is about to change.

Maybe some people can't sit still, and the matter of Lichu is probably going to be brought up again.

And now I am also struggling, if someone really mentions Lichu, will I still drag it...... Maybe not.

Zhao Yan suddenly felt that it would be good if Zhuang Wen was still there.

At least I don't have to worry about the matter of Lichu anymore, Zhuang Wen is not inferior to the other two in terms of virtue and talent, and he is the eldest son, so he doesn't need to rack his brains to compare at all.

It's a pity......

Just as Zhao Yan and Xie Shengtang were chatting, a eunuch ran in in broken steps, "Qi Qi Guan's family, the Imperial City Division has asked to see you." ”

Zhao Yan was stunned for a moment and glanced at Xie Shengtang.

Xie Shengtang shook his head blankly, obviously not knowing what Zeng Mo was doing in the Vertical Arch Hall at this time.

Zhao Yan waved his hand, "Xuan." ”

After a while, I saw Zeng Mo rushing in, still panting, obviously encountering a big event, and it was urgent.

Zhao Yan said angrily: "What can make Zeng Qing anxious like this?" ”

Zeng Mo glanced left and right, there were no idle people waiting...... Moreover, the vertical arch hall of the official family was originally a person who had believed, so he said hurriedly without taboo: "The official family, just now the eyeliner came to report, the prime minister Tang Si retreated, and the military department Shangshu Tang Shuo, after going out of the inner house, he did not return to the house, but went to King Gong's mansion and met His Royal Highness King Gong. ”

"What?!"

Zhao Yan was stunned and came out in shock.

Did Tang Si retire to see King Gong?

Just had a brief fight with Zhang Biao in the Vertical Arch Palace, and when he left the Great Interior, he went to see King Gong, what did Tang Siwei want to do?

Zhao Yan hurriedly asked, "He didn't avoid eyeliner?" ”

Zeng Mo was also a little strange, "Yes, the minister also thinks it is strange, Tang Xianggong didn't avoid suspicion, it seems that he deliberately let the eyes of the Imperial City Division find out, so he swaggered into Prince Gong's mansion!" ”

Zhao Yan was silent.

Thought of a lot.

Tang Siwei deliberately showed it to himself.

He deliberately told himself, the official family, the minister was also forced to be helpless, and he had to choose to take sides, so the minister went to support your third son, King Gong.

Deliberately let yourself see it, that is, to tell yourself that no matter how much the minister participates in the battle for the reserve, the minister is always your official father-in-law.

This is the cleverness of Tang Sihui.

The official family has never been afraid of the minister, but he is afraid that the prince will secretly collude with the courtiers and the prince.

Because it is a show of loyalty to the officials.

No matter which prince you support, you are always your own son of the official family.

Therefore, he will not choose King Gong because of Tang Siwei, so he will find an excuse to dismiss his phase.

Zhao Yan was very satisfied with Tang Si's retreat.

He knows at least his most basic position.

A minister who is clear about his position is the one who can be controlled by the officials.

But it's also very painful.

My Tang Xianggong, you are forcing me to establish a reserve.

Even the left minister is standing in line, and the rest of the courtiers can't understand the situation, I believe that soon, the Lin'an courtiers and even the entire officialdom of the Great Song Dynasty will stand in line.

If you don't make a quick decision, the dispute for the crown will become more and more intense, and you can't say what kind of disaster will arise in the end!

Zhao Yan only smiled bitterly.

If it is another minister, if you don't want to make a reserve, the most direct way is to change the appearance.

However, it was Tang Si who retreated.

Among today's ministers and ministers, the main and faction are extremely cohesive under the control of Tang Sihui, and can restrain and balance the main battle faction.

In that case, the group of people in the Privy Council, especially the privy envoy Jiang Fu, is likely to mention the Northern Expedition.

Zhao Yan also wanted to go on the Northern Expedition.

But not now...... The heavy cavalry army is not large enough, the domestic economy has not yet reached its peak, and the talent reserve is far from meeting its expectations.

Now the Northern Expedition will only defeat previous efforts.

Therefore, he needs Tang Sihui to balance Jiang Fu.

But now Tang Siwei suddenly changed his focus to fighting for reserves, which is to force himself to establish reserves as soon as possible, and then he will have more energy to balance the main battle faction.

This is what Tang Siwei wanted to tell himself by visiting King Gong.

Capricious, Tang Xianggong!
