Liu Che smiled, looked at Yuan An, and said: "Lone Zeng read, and I saw Han Feizi's argument: chivalry violates the ban with martial arts, and Confucianism uses literature to mess with hair, what does Si Gong think?" ”

Yuan Ang immediately understood what Liu Che meant.

This is the posture of the whole season of heart!

He sighed in his heart, no way, Ji Xin had a very close relationship with him.

For more than a year in the field, Yuan An's expenses and expenses were basically borne by Ji Xin.

If he just lets it go, then his Yuan An's golden signboard will be smashed!

If it was before, Liu Che was still called Liu De, and he was still a prince.

Yuan Ang naturally has a way to deal with this matter, and he can even call Ji Xin to be a peacemaker.

But not anymore!

Liu Che is already the crown prince!

Don't say that he is a ranger leader in Ji Xin, a guy who mixes with the underworld, even if he is a servant, if he is offended, he will be taken down!

As for the old relationship and relationship in front of the prince in the past......

Hehe......

At the beginning, Liu Bang became the Son of Heaven, and the old man Xiao He immediately discredited himself, Zhang Liang ran home to cultivate, and Cao Shen lowered his eyebrows and became a courtier.

Those people who couldn't see the shape clearly fell into tragedy.

For example, Han Xin, Peng Yue, and Lu Xuan.

When Emperor Taizong Xiaowen, even the throne of Emperor Taizong was supported by Chen Ping and Zhou Bo.

But as soon as the buttocks sat firmly, Emperor Taizong Xiaowen turned around and began to seize power.

In the end, Zhou Bo was even thrown into prison, if it weren't for the persuasion of Empress Dowager Bo. After saying all the good things, I am afraid that the late festival will not be guaranteed, and the whole clan will be punished.

Yes. After Liu Che became the crown prince, Yuan Ang immediately put himself in the right position.

The merits that have been made in the past are all regarded as non-existent.

Because only in this way can he survive for a long time!

But at the moment, Yuan Ang thought about this matter for a long time, and finally made up his mind, kowtowed: "Go home." The minister thought that Han Feizi was right, but Ji Xinchen knew. He has always been law-abiding, generous and loving, and has no bad deeds, and his brother Ji Bu is a well-known veteran minister in the world......" Han Feizi's words. Confucianism messes with the law. At this time, there is still controversy, but the ban on chivalry is recognized by the world, and since Liu Bang, Liu's attack on rangers has become stronger and stronger day by day.

Among the death row prisoners executed in Guanzhong every year, rangers who break the law account for a relatively important part!

Yes, Yuan Ang knew very well that if Liu Che had murderous intentions towards Ji Xin, then. Ji Xin wants to live, it's really difficult!

Don't say anything else. Liu Che's official position is to prepare the thief captain.

What are you doing with the thieves?

It's for rangers and thieves!

And if Liu really wants to arrest someone, that person can't hide at all, can't hide!

"If Ji Xin is angry with the family, please look at the face of the minister and Ji Bu, and be mag......nanimous," Yuan Ang said and paused deeply.

Liu Che looked at Yuan An's sincere plea in front of him, and his heart inevitably softened.

Thinking of Yuan An's goodness in the past, he couldn't really go too far.

Otherwise, this will be spread out, and the name of a mean and unkind person will not sound good!

In China's humane society, no matter what you do, you have to be emotional.

As the saying goes, if you don't look at the face of the monk and look at the face of the Buddha, if you really have a straight face and think that you are Bao Qingtian, you will definitely become a loner!

Especially Yuan An's posture is so low.

really annoyed Yuan An, and Liu Che didn't feel good!

Thinking like this, Liu Che's attitude softened a lot, stood up and smiled, and said, "Si Gong has seen the outside!" What is the relationship between Lone and Silk Gong? Since Si Gong pleaded for this season, then Gu should believe that this person is indeed as Si Gong said! ”

Liu Che paced a step forward and said softly: "It's just that it's about to come to the end of the year, according to the three chapters of Emperor Gao's covenant, the murderer dies, the wounded and the theft is punished, and he plans to let the drama Meng Qing investigate the old cases in Guanzhong in the near future, and strive to hunt down a group of criminals who have repeatedly escaped the punishment of the king law in the past, and punish them in the right way!" ”

This is to engage in a Western Han version of the Strike Hard!

is the same as Journey to the West, the monsters with a backstage must not be caught, and those who can be caught must be unlucky people who have no backstage or are not hard enough in the backstage.

Liu Che's meaning is obvious, that is, since Yuan Ang wants to protect Ji Xin, then okay, I will give you face, but Guan Zhong Ji Xin can't stay! Hurry up and let him go to Kanto to hide for two years!

If this is the case, Ji Xin will still stay in Guanzhong.

Then you can't blame Liu Che for being ruthless and not looking at Yuan An's face!

Yuan Ang naturally knew what Liu Che meant, so he bowed his head and said: "That's right, Guanzhong has accumulated old cases and escaped the law, and they should be punished by national law!" ”

"With the support of Sigong, loneliness is at ease!" Liu Che turned around and said with a smile: "Si Gong, please sit down for a while, Gu has already ordered someone to make tea, it is the high-grade pre-Ming rain tea brought by Cheng Zhengying from Shu County, all of which are new tender tea buds before and after the cold food, it is said that a tea mountain can only produce half a catty!" ”

I have to say that when it comes to enjoyment, businessmen are even more powerful than royalty!

At the very least, the businessmen at this time are much more powerful than the Liu family in terms of enjoyment.

When Liu Che was a prince before, he was satisfied with being able to mix a horse of Shu brocade to make clothes all year round!

Earlier, when Emperor Taizong Xiaowen was there, not to mention Shu brocade, the grandiose grandson wore silkworms raised by mulberry trees planted by the palace itself, and the clothes woven by the concubines in the palace.

Su Ji never bothered to do such foul words, naturally, the three Liu Che brothers didn't even have a few satin clothes!

Where can you compare with those big folk dogs?

When Yuan Ang heard this, he immediately smiled and said, "Dare to disobey your fate? ”

The storm has finally passed, and all that's left is how to end it.

……………………………………………………

Walking out of the palace, Yuan Ang boarded his carriage.

The coachman who drove the car was Yuan An's house slave, saying that he was a slave, but in fact, he was the same as his family, he was a servant raised by the Yuan family since childhood, and he grew up with Yuan An, running around, and his feelings were naturally very deep. Therefore, Yuan Ang did not hide many things from him, and even discussed them with him.

The coachman saw that Yuan An's face was not very good. Tentatively asked, "Master, but what's the matter with the prince?" ”

Yuan Ang let out a long sigh and asked the coachman: "Da Lang, do you know who Ji Xin has been dealing with these days?" ”

The coachman replied, "The servant has heard of some, and it is said that Ji Xin has been in close contact with the Du family recently. You also know that the Du family and the Tian family have always been the jobs of the Guanzhong rangers......"

"Toshi?!" Yuan Ang rubbed his temples. Knowing what was going on, he couldn't help but say angrily: "Why don't you report it to me?" ”

"Master, is there something wrong?" The coachman asked curiously.

Naturally, this official and businessman will not take the initiative to meet.

These usual practices of filial piety, benefits, and so on are generally handed over to the subordinates and henchmen of officials.

Often, officials would appoint a domestic slave or cronie to handle these matters.

That's what happened. Nothing will be left behind.

This was after Zhang Wu took bribes. A new mode of collecting money in officialdom!

Although Yuan Ang doesn't love money, he is active in the officialdom, ushering in send-offs, entertaining guests from time to time, holding a banquet or something, just relying on that little money, let alone a banquet. It's hard to feed your family!

Yuan Ang listened to the coachman's words, shook his head and said, "It's not just inappropriate." Woe is coming! ”

"Quick, go to Ji Xin's mansion! Fast! Yuan Ang anxiously urged.

You know, he just made a guarantee in front of the prince!

If Ji Xin did something that angered the prince or even did something rebellious, then he Yuan Ang would be sitting!

Others don't know when today's son is the prince's treasure Cheng dù.

Yuan Ang is clear!

When he was in Hedong, after the prince returned to Chang'an, the Son of Heaven asked the prince about his whereabouts and safety three times a day.

After canonizing the crown prince, although on the surface the Son of Heaven did not pay much attention to the prince.

But in fact, Yuan An's acquaintances in the palace told him that before the Son of Heaven went to bed every day, he would definitely hear someone report on the whereabouts of the prince today.

Be sure to listen before you go to sleep!

This kind of Cheng dù's emphasis is not just pampering but doting!

With the temper of the old Liu family, whoever moves his son will definitely kill his whole family!

Tao Qing, Wang Hui's fate, Yuan Ang can see it clearly!

So, Yuan An's servant carriage traveled all the way through the streets of Chang'an and stopped in front of a mansion in the east of the city.

This is Ji Xin's house.

Because Ji Xin's brother Ji Bu once served as an official to the county guard of 2,000 stones, this house was also built magnificently without scruples, and two stone lions were installed at the door.

Yuan Ang got out of the carriage, and the subordinates of the Ji family immediately came forward and saluted: "The servant is here, please come in quickly, the master has been looking forward to the servant for a long time!" ”

Yuan Ang roared with a straight face, and said to Ji Fu's subordinates who came up to greet him: "Go and call Ji Xin to me, immediately!" ”

This roar immediately frightened the subordinates of the Ji family.

Yuan Ang has never been so angry!

So, they didn't dare to slack off at all, and hurriedly went in to report.

Not long after, a man wearing silk and satin, but with a big waist and a thick waist, walked out of the mansion, and when he saw Yuan An, he immediately knelt down and bowed: "Engong, but there is something to tell you?" The heart is going to do it right away? Is it wrong to be embarrassed by Engong again? ”

Yuan Ang glanced at Ji Xin, and said helplessly: "Let's go in and talk about it!" ”

Yuan Ang can't help it!

Back then, he saved Ji Xin and helped Ji Xin escape the pursuit of the imperial court.

That's because he and Ji Xin are fellow countrymen!

Everyone is a Chu person, and there are very few Chu people in the court, so it is a good one to help one!

This model of regional grouping has existed since ancient times.

Ji Xin took Yuan Ang into the house, invited Yuan Ang to the living room, and ordered someone to serve tea, and then asked carefully: "Engong is so angry today, but what did he do wrong?" ”

Ji Xin is naturally not stupid, he knows that Yuan Ang is so angry today, it must be that he accidentally did something to offend Yuan An.

And Yuan An, Ji Xin can't afford to be guilty!

After all, this is his umbrella!

Yuan Ang looked at Ji Xin's honest and obedient look, and the anger in his heart suddenly disappeared a lot.

After all, after so many years, Ji Xin, a fellow countryman, has helped him a lot!

There is no merit and hard work!

Especially when he was down, Ji Xin didn't leave him!

However, it is about the crown prince. Yuan Ang had to keep a straight face and asked coldly: "Ji Xin, let me ask you." These days, what are you doing with the Du family? Do you want your eldest brother to be humiliated under Jiuquan, and drag me Yuan Si to die together? ”

Ji Xin's brother Ji Bu had passed away a few years ago.

Therefore, Yuan Ang can also be regarded as Ji Xin's elder.

"Engong, why do you say this?" Ji Xin was also startled, and hurriedly bowed: "Although a certain person is reckless, he will never dare to do this!" ”

"Hide it from me!" Yuan Ang finally couldn't help but take a few shots. He asked, "If you haven't done anything out of the ordinary, why did the prince invite me over today?" It's not that my old face is still a little useful in front of the prince, now. The Praetorian Army is out there! ”

It is taboo to mix with the royal family!

In front of the prince, it is an act of looking for death!

At the beginning, Dong'an waited for Zhang Xiangru. An elder recognized by the government and the opposition. The prime minister candidate, once offended the prince, he was kicked back to his hometown to farm!

It's like this, Ji Xin is a little ranger, a guy with shit all over his buttocks, Yuan Ang can't figure it out, why does he dare to get involved in such a headless thing?

"Prince......" Ji Xin was stunned, and he scratched his head. Said: "Engong is angry, Engong is angry." A certain person was indeed entrusted by someone to call a few rangers back from the drama Meng, but it won't offend the prince, right? ”

Yuan Ang stood up and looked at Ji Xin.

He really didn't know what words to use to describe Ji Xin's behavior.

This is not called offense, but what is offense?

"Ji Xin, if you still recognize me Yuan Si, promise me one thing......" Yuan Ang sighed and said.

"Eun Gong, please speak!"

"You clean up immediately, leave Guanzhong immediately, go to Shu County, or go to Luoyang! Let's go out and hide for two years......" Yuan Ang said dejectedly.

"Why?" Ji Xin suddenly erupted, straightened his neck, blushed, and asked, "I just said hello, why is this so?" ”

"Why?" Yuan Ang sneered: "Why? It's not my fault Yuan Si pleaded for you in front of the family, now. You're already a dead man! ”

"But I'm not convinced!" Ji Xin also looked aggrieved, squatted on the ground, and said, "Engong, you said, a certain point is not as good as that drama Meng?" ”

Yuan Ang finally understood why Ji Xin would do such a fatal thing.

In the world of rangers, there can only be one boss.

In the past, the drama Meng was dominant in Kanto, and Ji Xin was free in Guanzhong.

Naturally, the two do not provoke.

But now, Ju Meng ran to Chang'an and put his hand into Ji Xin's territory, pulling people and integrating.

Yuan Ang also felt that Ji Xin could bear to give Ju Meng a little color now, which was already very good!

Yuan Ang also sighed, he never understood why the prince fell in love with the drama Meng who was far away in Luoyang, and ignored Ji Xin in the guan?

Doesn't the prince know that the strong dragon does not suppress the head snake?

No matter how powerful the drama Meng is, when he arrives in Guanzhong, he is definitely not as powerful as the head snake Ji Xin!

This can be seen from the fact that the drama Meng is now preparing for the identity of the thief captain and the doctor of the prince's gate, and there is no way to make all the rangers in the gate obedient!

If it is Ji Xin who is in the seat of the drama Meng, then ......

Who dares to chirp?

But......

Yuan Ang sighed and said, "How was Ju Meng recruited, do you know?" If the prince had invited you at that time, would you go? ”

When Ji Xin heard this, he was slightly stunned.

Half a year ago, who knew which green onion Liu Che was?

At that time, the nobles and businessmen in Chang'an City, everyone was waiting for the emperor's eldest son Liu Rong to take the throne.

As for the second son?

Who has noticed?

Thinking about it like this, Ji Xin was suddenly a little deflated, but he was still very unconvinced, and pouted: "The reckless heroes in the world, is there only one drama Meng?" I just want the prince to know that I am no worse than the drama Meng! It's even better than Ju Meng, this Guanzhong seventy-five counties, who doesn't know the name of a certain person? If he is in the position of Drama Meng, he will definitely do a better job than Drama Meng! ”

This is Ji Xin's long-term knot.

If the prince wants to use people, use people!

Originally, Meng entered the Guanzhong, became an official, and helped Liu Che do things, and he was optimistic about it.

After all, there are too few ways for this ranger to wash his name.

Drama Meng is a guiding light.

Therefore, for a long time, Ji Xin didn't come out to embarrass Ju Meng, and even ordered the younger brothers to cooperate as much as possible, otherwise no matter how powerful Ju Meng is, no matter how famous he is. Without his acquiescence or even support, before the gang of rangers in Guanzhong saw the benefits, who would be a barbarian from Kanto?

But. Now Meng Ju Meng has come out, and he has become the captain of the thief, mixed with the name of the prince doctor and the minister of the hidden palace.

Especially recently, every time Ji Xin drinks with his younger brother in the past, mentioning the scenery of Drama Meng, Ji Xin is extremely envious.

There are even some rangers who only know about drama Meng. And I don't know if he's in the heart!

Half a year ago, in terms of background, the drama Meng couldn't catch up with his Ji Xin.

On Background. His Ji Xin's backer is Yuan An, who is also familiar with the bureaucrats of Chang'an, large and small, and is still the head snake.

Ji Xin asked himself, he was no worse than the drama Meng.

But why didn't the prince send someone to recruit him?

Come and think about it. Ji Xin felt. It may be that his reputation has not yet reached the ears of the prince.

So how can we let the prince know that there is still a 'sage in the wild' who is holding the 'heart of serving with fists' in this Chang'an City?

It just so happened that two days ago, Du Shi asked him for help and dragged the drama Meng back, so the two hit it off, and there was such a play.

It's a pity, now it seems. The effect is there, but it's the opposite.

The prince really knew that there was a Ji Xin. But I hated it!

This made Ji Xin feel that there must be something wrong with this world!

Why did the drama Meng Mingming's family in Luoyang be discovered, but he was discovered by the prince when he was still in the end, he was in Chang'an every day, in Guanzhong, but he never got recruited?

Yuan Ang naturally knew what the problem was.

Ji Xin used the thinking of a ranger to deal with the prince, but the prince looked at it from the perspective of politics, which is not surprising!

Yuan Ang couldn't cry or laugh, shook his head and said: "Since you want to be loyal to the prince, why don't you share it with me, I have a thin face in front of the prince...... Why is this the case......"

Ji Xin shook his head and said, "I owe too much to Engong, I can't pull this face and ask for Engong again!" ”

Yuan Ang couldn't help shaking his head.

The rangers are mostly bohemian, have no rules, and have no rules.

Back then, Ji Bu was still alive, and Ji Xin's temper came up, and he killed people when he said that he would kill people.

This is also the reason why Yuan Ang has never mentioned Ji Xin in front of Liu Che.

This kind of person, it's okay to put it below, once he arrives at the court, Ji Xin's temperament is the root of his death!

At this point, Yuan Ang didn't want to say more, he shook his head and asked, "Did Du Shi tell you anything other than asking you to do this?" ”

Ji Xin shook his head and said: "Returning to Engong, it's not, it's just that I heard some things, and I don't know if I should say it......

"Tell me about ......," Yuan Ang hurriedly asked.

"That's the case, I heard from the people below, in recent days, Du Shi and several other merchant families are discussing some things with the officials of the county and county officials in Guanzhong, Si Cao, as well as the pavilion chief and Youfu, and I heard that they seem to be saying that the prince wants to limit the price of protected grain, and he must cooperate with all efforts, and he must be extreme, someone sued sù, a certain pavilion chief said when he was drinking with him, and the thing that the Guanzhong merchant Jia discussed with them was that if the prince limited the price of grain to fifty yuan and one stone, he would buy and sell it for fifty-five yuan and one stone. Then they will sell the grain to the peasants at a price of fifty-five dollars a stone, and each household will have to buy more than ten stone! Ji Xin touched his head and recalled.

When Yuan Ang heard this, he couldn't sit still anymore, and immediately got up and said: "It's a big matter, you wait first, I'll go to report to the house immediately, come back in the evening, and discuss this matter with you!" ”

"Questions?" Ji Xin asked, "Isn't this bad?" ”

"Big problem!" Yuan Ang said: "These guys actually dare to use this method to deal with the prince, once they succeed, this government and the opposition will be in chaos, and even the world will be in turmoil!" ”

As an old official, Yuan Ang certainly knows what kind of means the people below will adopt when they encounter their superiors who use strong means to implement a certain policy, if they can't beat them in terms of hard power.

What Ji Xin said was precisely the most extreme, worst, and most severe way of confrontation.

I really want to be played by these low-level bureaucrats such as pavilion chiefs, You Paid, and Koufu who connect the local officials of the various counties in Guanzhong.

When the time comes, either the prince bows his head and admits his mistakes, or the Liu family uses the army to wash Guanzhong in blood!

There is hardly a third option!

And with the temper of the Liu family, the most likely choice is the second choice.

And in that case, the whole world will be unstable, and even Liu Che's crown prince position may be lost!

………………………………

Too womb, painting hall.

Liu Che sat at the top, and after listening to Yuan An's words, he was also a little stunned.

That's a tricky question!

What Yuan Ang said was very simple, a few businessmen who were unwilling to lose their interests decided to connect and buy off the low-level bureaucrats in the entire Guanzhong.

If it was a clear confrontation, Liu Che would not be afraid at all!

But if they play like this, it's dangerous!

How did Wang Anshi's reform fail?

It was defeated by this trick of the bureaucrats!

The good green seedling law and the exemption law finally turned into a showdown and a carnival of the bureaucracy.

Farmers who should have benefited ended up paying an even greater price.

What the bureaucrats are doing, to put it bluntly, is very simple, that is, to expand and extremize.

Like the Seedlings Law, which originally meant to give a low-interest loan to the people at the bottom, the immunization law was to let those people who did not want to serve pay someone to serve on their behalf.

But in the end, the officials below will give you a one-size-fits-all approach, and all the people will be forced to pay for the service, and they will be forced to take out loans, whether you need them or not! Willing or not!

This is the root cause of Wang Anshi's failure to change the law!

The upper-class aristocracy hates to change the law, and the lower-class people have not tasted the benefits, but have a harder life, so who still supports the new law?

Such an example is not just Wang Anshi's change.

Even the later Celestial Empire, Qingfeng New Deal, also encountered such a problem.

Xinjun said what to do, the people below will give you an extremism and expansion, and find an opportunity to give you eye medicine, all kinds of methods that seem to be faithful to black, even the Celestial Empire is still helpless, unless like Taizu, launch a buzz, smash the whole world, and reshuffle the cards.

Liu Che naturally couldn't learn from the Heavenly Dynasty Taizu.

For them to do so.

Liu Che has only one way! (To be continued......)
