Chapter 80 Responsibilities of Advisors

"The kidnappers have not yet made a condition, and their motives for kidnapping your brother are unknown. What we can do now is to search the whole city and find the whereabouts of the kidnappers as much as possible. What you can do now is to hurry back, if something happens to you again, the court will be completely chaotic. Han Jian was a kind reminder and asked Yang Xi to hurry back to the palace first.

"But the third brother ......" Yang Xi still persevered.

"Your third brother will be saved, and with your ability, it is not enough to compete with those bandits." Han Jian said, "You have to be clear, the last thing Your Majesty wants to see now is that your brothers are in trouble. ”

The meaning of what Han Jian said is very clear, now the empress is not married, and she has no children. Nine times out of ten, the throne will be returned to the Yang brothers, that is, Yang Yu or Yang Xi, because only his two brothers have survived to adulthood. Now Yang Yu has been kidnapped by kidnappers, if the ticket is torn up, then the throne will not be passed to Yang Xi.

If something happens to both brothers, there are only two ways in front of the empress, either to get married and have children quickly, or to choose an heir from the royal line.

Yang Xi felt good about himself in the fraud case, and thought that he could also try to save his brother through his own efforts this time. Han Jian just wanted to remind him that you are responsible for the court and your sister by staying in the palace honestly now.

Yang Xi was reluctant to go, and finally had to go. Han Jian instructed Zhang Xing to take a few guards to escort Yang Xi back to the palace. Waiting for Yang Xi to leave, Han Jian breathed a sigh of relief, and Yang Xi asked some unnutritious words that annoyed him.

Sima Yi smiled on the side: "Do you say that this Yang Gongzi is lacking in heart?" His brother was kidnapped, he should be secretly happy, won't he become the crown prince and ascend the throne as the emperor in the future? ”

Han Jian glared at Sima Yi and said, "If this kind of words are heard, what kind of crime can you know?" ”

Sima Yu pouted and said, "Great disrespect? Cut, who else are you here besides the young boy? To be honest, if it were me, I wouldn't be so stupid and save people? It's better to be dead. ”

Han Jian sighed slightly: "Regardless of whether saving people is beneficial to him or not, saving people is always the attitude he should have." In this regard, you and I must also have a clear attitude, and we must not let others make irresponsible remarks about our attitude of not saving others. ”

Sima Yu smiled: "Understood." ”

"Also, the limelight in Luoyang City has been tight these days, don't run around, you showed up in front of the kidnappers yesterday, be careful." Han Jian instructed.

"I'm still afraid that those thieves won't come, I'll fight one if they come, and I'll fight one pair when they come to two. Oops......"

As he spoke, Sima touched the wound by touching the leg of the table, grinning in pain.

Han Jian didn't have the heart to talk nonsense with Sima Yu, he had to go to the listening office on an errand earlier. In fact, it doesn't matter whether he saves people or not, he is more concerned about going to Gu's mansion at noon to invite him to "exchange" feelings with Gu Xin'er.

In the past, Han Jian basically traveled alone when he went to the listening office, but for the sake of caution, he still brought the guards with him today. As soon as he left Qingxu Yashe, before he could walk out of the street, he saw Lin Zhan coming towards him, and he was in a hurry.

"Found the thief?" Han Jian couldn't help frowning when he saw Lin Zhan like this, he could see that the whites of Lin Zhan's eyes were full of bloodshots, and he should have not slept all night.

Lin Zhan hurriedly said: "No, it's Mr. Su who mentioned it to the young prince yesterday." He...... This morning I went to the Tingwei's Mansion to turn myself in. ”

"Turn yourself in?"

Han Jian frowned deeply, and said in his heart how to forget about Su Tingxia.

Yesterday, before Han Jian and the others went to the Tingwei Mansion for trial, Lin Zhan had said that Su Tingxia wanted to see him, probably to reveal some secrets of the fraud case. In fact, Han Jian had probably guessed these secrets that since the imperial court and the empress didn't want to investigate deeply, he also felt that Su Tingxia couldn't see it. But he didn't expect Su Tingxia to be so "reckless", and for his so-called revenge plan, he would go to the Tingwei Mansion to throw himself into the net.

Although Su Tingxia was a victim in the fraud case, he was also a beneficiary, and he took the exam twice, one in the top and the other in the top spot. When it comes to this crime, if it is big, it can be said that it can be deceitful, and the crime of exterminating the clan is not justified if it is small. Neither the King of the North nor the Imperial Court would let him live. One is that they do not want the crime to be exposed, and the other is that they do not want the situation to expand.

"Okay, I see." Han Jian just said flatly, and then asked, "Is there a deal about the kidnappers?" ”

Lin Zhan shook his head helplessly, indicating that he was investigating.

Originally, the Tingwei Mansion was worried about the Luoyang Assassins, but now the assassins have become kidnappers and kidnap the prince under their noses. In the past night, no one could sleep in either the Tingwei Mansion or the Guard Station.

Han Jian patted Lin Zhan on the shoulder as encouragement, and said, "Brother Lin do a good job, after a while, I will try to help you find an errand in the army, so that you can show your strengths." ”

Lin Zhan didn't expect Han Jian to deliberately promote him so quickly. Although he didn't know how Han Jian could help him, he also knew that Han Jian was the king of the East and always had his connections and connections.

Lin Zhan came over to inform Han Jian about Su Tingxia, and when Lin Zhan left, Han Jian couldn't help but let out a long sigh. When he finished sighing, he didn't know what he was sighing. Thinking about it, there are actually many things worth his emotion.

First of all, Su Tingxia, this person has great talent, but unfortunately he can't use it.

Su Tingxia is not alone in redressing grievances, there are people behind the scenes who are helping him, who these people are, Han Jian is not clear for the time being. That is to say, some people in the court are already dissatisfied with the people of the Northern King's forces, and want to use Su Tingxia's hand to dig out the Northern King's people. These people are not righteous or evil, there are no good people in the power arena, they are only for their own ends. The water in the imperial court was muddy.

The second is that Yang Yu was kidnapped. From Han Jian's own standpoint, he should hope that the successor is Yang Xi, although Yang Xi has not known him for a long time, Yang Xi at least trusts him, and there are no trustworthy people around him to help, Yang Xi has to rely on him once he gets the throne. But from the standpoint of the Wei court, Yang Xi was not the best candidate to succeed to the throne.

Although Yang Yu has a poor relationship with Han Jian, after all, Yang Yu is old, has already started a family, has been deeply involved in the world, and has accumulated contacts around him. The officials in the court, whether they are famous or profitable, want to befriend Yang Yu to seek development. It's a pity that Yang Yu is too "evil" for Han Jian, and the two of them are not on the same position.

Han Jian had no choice but to help Yang Xi.

Compared with Yang Yu, Yang Xi is like a young bird, and he only remembers his sister in everything. Yang Xi may be an obedient and good boy, but he is not a good candidate for succession, even if he succeeds to the throne and can be a "benevolent monarch", it is difficult to say whether such a benevolent monarch will be the king of the dead country. There are Southern Qi in the south, Northern King and Xianbei in the north, and Western King in the west, these forces are all eyeing the authority of the Wei Dynasty, and Renjun should not be in the house of troubled times.

……

……

Thinking about things, Han Jian went to the general office of the Shangting Office. As soon as Han Jian entered the courtyard, he heard a lot of noise in the meditation hall, and two old men with loud voices were trying to make each other give in to the level of their voices. It's a pity that they are just wishful thinking.

It's Cui Mingli and Gu Weipan again.

When Han Jian walked to the door of the meditation hall, he saw that the big and small officials all turned a blind eye to the two old guys who were arguing, and when others quarreled, they would try to persuade them, but these two quarreled, and they broke off the idea of persuasion from the beginning.

Persuaded in vain.

Han Jianli listened at the door of the meditation hall, or because of the construction of the tower. Today, the imperial court audited the expenses for the construction of the tower with several departments such as the Ministry of Works, the Shangting Office, and the Chengxuan Tongli Yamen, and in the early court, the empress announced the matter and ordered the court officials to discuss it in public.

The cost of building the tower is almost 100,000 taels of silver, which is not counting some later projects. As soon as this number came out, Cui Mingli had something to say, he always believed that the construction of the tower by the imperial court was "a waste of money for the people".

Han Jian scoffed at his view. Cui Mingli is a Confucian, he has never seen any silver, and he thinks that more than 100,000 taels is a huge amount of money, like those corrupt officials or ministers, hundreds of thousands of taels may not be money, and yesterday Li Weiguang wanted to give a woman 3,000 taels as soon as he made a move. That's the gap.

In the early dynasty, the empress not only announced the cost of building the tower, but also said that the imperial treasury was short of money, and hoped that the courtiers could come up with a proper plan to raise silver taels. In previous dynasties, it was common for people to raise money for pagodas, and this time the empress also hoped to use private financial resources to reduce the burden on the court. As a result, Cui Mingli and a group of other officials immediately jumped out and said that the construction of the tower would cost the people and money, and so on, and even the discussion of raising money was shelved.

Han Jian can imagine how bad the mood of the empress should be in the early court, his third brother was kidnapped, and he can't find it, and he was accused by the officials of discussing the construction of a tower, Han Jian estimated that Cui Mingli and others were also blacklisted by the empress at this time, and Cui Mingli, the "adviser minister of the upper hearing office", would have a chance to go to the court to discuss matters in the future.

“…… The matter of building the tower is determined by His Majesty, if you have an opinion, go and talk to Your Majesty! In the end, Gu Weipan didn't want to quarrel with Cui Mingli, and he felt bored arguing back and forth.

Cui Mingli said angrily: "You are responsible for building the tower, if it weren't for you, how could Your Majesty be bewitched by evil words?" ”

Gu Weipan's face turned from red to iron blue at the moment, he was just ordered to raise the matter of building the tower, and now he has become a "demon confusing the king", he doesn't want to be guilty of this crime that has been stinking for thousands of years.

Just as Gu Weipan rolled up his sleeves, ready to turn the quarrel into a fist and foot dispute, Han Jian's voice came:

"Old man Cui, what you said is not right. What is bewitchment? Building a tower is a matter of His Majesty's decision, do you mean, His Majesty's evil words confuse the public? ”

Cui Mingli originally thought that he had the upper hand, but Gu Wei was angry with him, even if he had won. But unexpectedly, Han Jian, who should have stood in his position, actually came out to accuse him.

"You ......"

"What am I?" Since you want to be reasonable, you have to be domineering, it's enough to say it yourself, this truth Han Jian understands, "Let's just say that this tower is built, but it costs more than 100,000 taels of silver, and I will discuss it with the rich, and everyone will raise a thousand eight hundred taels of silver, won't it be raised?" What's the cost of labor? ”

Cui Mingli said angrily: "For businessmen, how can any businessmen be willing to donate silver?" To raise money, in the end, is it not the government that forces ordinary people to donate? ”

"You're not right." Han Jian said, "The work of building the tower is in the future. As long as you tell those rich people that whoever donates silver, after building the tower, can engrave their name on the tower tablet, and arrange the order according to the amount of silver donated, so that their name will be remembered for eternity. Do you think they are willing to donate? ”

Han Jian's words not only made Cui Mingli speechless, but even Gu Weipan was surprised. He was worried about raising money, but unexpectedly, Han Jian, who came to persuade him, brought him a good idea to raise money in three or two sentences.

"Wait, you put this money donation ...... Tell me more about it. Gu Weipan on the side didn't care about arguing with Cui Mingli, and directly pulled Han Jian, looking eagerly.
