Chapter 1213: Visiting the Deceased
Fang Xie stretched, not looking very worried. So Chen Xiaoru's heart also settled down a little, he was really afraid of seeing Fang Xie at a loss. As long as the backbone is still so indifferent, Chen Xiaoru knows that there is hope for this invisible war.
When he recently noticed that Dugu Wenxiu and Cui Zhongzhen, who seemed to be extremely discordant on the surface, had faint signs of coming together, he was extremely shocked and frightened in his heart. Because this was far beyond his ability, he knew that he could not stabilize the situation.
Even if Fang Xie gave him a lot of rights.
He was looking forward to Fang Xie coming back quickly, because he was perceiving every day that the crisis in Chang'an City was on the verge of exploding step by step.
If Fang Xie didn't come back, he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to bear the pressure in his heart.
"During these days, the Xiao Riding School has been tracking down several things."
Chen Xiaoru took a deep breath and gradually calmed down his mood.
"First, it is the matter of Dugu Wenxiu and Cui Zhongzhen. If the previous feud between the two of them and the signs of the present are coming together, it is deliberate...... It is your duty to warn your lord that there may be some extremely unfavorable intentions behind these two men. ”
Chen Xiaoru said solemnly: "Second, where is the source of the rumors in the city, my subordinates have been secretly sending people to investigate. However, it is obviously spread from the bottom of the people, and the people involved are too wide to find out where the source is. However, his subordinates recently secretly sent people to start an inventory of restaurants, gambling houses, and green buildings. ”
"Third, the Xiao Riding School began to check itself, because the minister was in the dark, and most of the people in the Xiao Riding School didn't know that the minister was looking at them. So some people began to behave unreasonably, although these people are not of high status, but their positions are very sensitive. ”
Chen Xiaoru said: "The minister suspects that the method of those people is to start controlling the middle and lower classes but have real power in their hands. ”
"It's always been the most efficient way to go."
Wu Yiyi was silent for a while and then said, "This is also why these people can have such a strong strength...... For example, in the former dynasty of Da Zheng, the royal family sat on the highest seat from the beginning of the struggle for the world to the world. But the highest, not the most effective. The emperor seems to control the overall situation, but the most effective control of him is actually only the courtiers in the court, and even the local officials can't control the officials. ”
"And these people, they are not going the highest way, but the other way. They have been precipitated for hundreds or even thousands of years, and they hold great wealth and power in their hands. Then they began to infiltrate, gradually controlling those who were not of high status but had real power. For example, if you want to control a county order, it may cost 10,000 taels of silver to buy him out. But if the head catcher is theirs, the silver does not need to be spent at all. The county order ordered certain things to be done, and it was conveyed by the headcatcher. And the real manpower is in the hands of the headhunter. ”
Wu Yiyi continued: "For another example, the secretary of the household department knows absolutely not as well as a small official in charge of policies. If you go to ask the head of the household department how much grain there is in the treasury that can be transferred, he can't answer the specific figure, so he has to go back and ask. But if you ask this little official, he knows it very clearly. Let's take another example of vulgarity...... If you want to secretly date a girl in the Qinglou, it is obviously too difficult to buy the mother of the Qinglou, but it is ...... to buy a turtle Very simple. ”
Fang Xie nodded, he knew that Wu Yiyi's analysis was correct.
But obviously, Chen Xiaoru did not think of this level. He only noticed the signs, but he didn't think deeper.
"So, this time our opponent is terrible."
Fang Xie was still smiling, as if he was deliberately trying to let Chen Xiaoru settle down.
"It seems difficult to control a royal family, but Tonggu Academy has done it. Before, what we knew was that Tonggu Academy had been trying to control the world through the royal family, but now they are facing opponents, and they are taking a more thorough path. They did not control the royal family, but a large number of middle- and lower-class officials. So relatively speaking...... Compared with these people, Tonggu Academy is inferior. ”
Wu Yi asked Fang Jie: "Wasn't Tonggu Academy established by Sangran?" If it is said that Tonggu Academy did not perceive the existence of these people before, it is obviously impossible. Why do you use the cultivation of the chaos to destroy these people directly? ”
Fang Xie shook his head: "I don't know about Sangran, and I can't figure out his thoughts. His purpose in establishing Tonggu Academy was to test whether the direction of a national exhibition would be changed by manpower, but then he obviously lost interest in Tonggu Academy, otherwise he would not have sat idly by and watched Yang Jian destroy Tonggu Academy. ”
"These current opponents, they must also be afraid of the Mulberry Rebellion, so Tonggu Academy can be established. If it weren't for such a strong person as Sang Chao, these people might have already wiped out Tonggu Academy. Just like the Yanwu Academy, they all know very well that the Yanwu Academy was actually established by the Great Sui Imperial Family, and if they want to get rid of the way they want to get rid of the generals, they have to choose from the family, and they want to select talents from the children of the poor family. If it weren't for a powerful person like Wan Xingchen in charge, then the Yanwu Academy wouldn't be able to last at all. ”
"That is to say......"
Wu Yi thought for a while and said, "These people don't have the strength to fight directly with Sang Chao and Wan Xingchen. Therefore, what they choose for a particular period is forbearance, as well as deception. ”
"They can't beat Wan Xingchen, they can't beat Sangchao."
Chen Xiaoru suddenly thought: "Then they may use Wan Xingchen and take advantage of the Sang Chaos?" ”
……
……
"That's right!"
Wu Yiyi's thinking gradually became clear: "They are afraid of the Mulberry Chaos, so they are powerless to watch the rise of Tonggu Academy, so that they have to hide their strength deeper." However, their control power is really strong, and then it appeared that the people in Tonggu Academy are simply detached. Therefore, they can rest assured that while continuing to control the middle and lower level officials, they began to install their people in the Tonggu Academy. ”
"And the Sang Chao, after that, I had no interest in Tonggu Academy at all."
Wu Yiyi, for example, Fang Xie is better than Chen Xiaoru, and he has a better understanding of the Sang Chaos. After all, a long, long time ago, the goods were inseparable from the chaos in the world. Without the strong support of Tonggu Academy, the company might not have been able to become the largest trading house in the world in just 20 years.
Big enough that it can affect the pattern.
Chen Xiaoru's mood was a little better, because his current secret enemies were not too strong to be invincible. In a sense, they are far inferior to Sanran. Even, far less than Wan Xingchen.
"Next, what to do?"
He asked.
After Fang Xie came back, Chen Xiaoru felt that the pressure had been reduced too much. Even if the situation is still so unclear, even if it is not clear who the enemy is until now. But when the backbone of the Lord returned, he felt that nothing was invincible.
"It's up to you."
Fang Xie smiled and said, "If you should check something, you will continue to check." If I change your mind, then those people will be able to perceive your change as well. ”
Chen Xiaoru nodded.
Somewhat passive, it seems.
"Actually, the situation has changed."
Fang explained: "Now, they don't know what I'm going to do. ”
After saying this, Fang Xie suddenly said another thing: "You go and make arrangements, I heard that Cui Zhongzhen's father is here, and I am going to visit his house." When he left Fan Gu, he met Cui Zhongzhen and had a relationship with his father. At the beginning, his father also sent some men to protect the road and gave me a good horse. ”
Chen Xiaoru responded.
"Minister, let's arrange it."
Fang Xie got up and stretched his body: "By the way, I will arrange it again, when I come out of Cui Zhongzhen's house, I will go directly to Dugu's house." Dugu's mother is a sensible person, and I asked to visit her. ”
"Whoa"
Chen Xiaoru was a little confused, and he didn't know what Fang Xie was going to do.
……
……
Cui Mansion
Cui You's face was a little gloomy, and he looked at his son, a son he didn't think could be a tool for a long time, but now it is very important. used to think that the status of the Cui family was coming to an end in Cui Zhongzhen's generation. Because of Cui Zhongzhen's incompetence, he could not hand over the huge interests of his secret control to him. Because once handed over to him, his fate is death.
It is impossible for those people not to take action.
If all the Qi Qi of the Cui family were handed over to Cui Zhongzhen, then it would be tantamount to putting a gold ingot in the hands of a three-year-old child, and this child would have to survive in the place where the gang controlled it. It's impossible...... Even if this child just staggered down the street with the gold ingot, it would not be safe and sound.
But now, he has to put all the bets on his son.
"Did you show any flaws?"
He asked.
Cui Zhongzhen thought about it carefully, and then shook his head: "Don't worry, father, in the East Warm Pavilion of the Taiji Palace, I didn't say anything about sending people to infiltrate the Gyeonggi Province. It was Dugu Wenxiu's head, I didn't interject, and I didn't say anything. As for why Fang Xie objected to me sending someone to assist Dugu Wenxiu, his explanation seemed to make sense. ”
"It's not that simple!"
Cui You waved his hand impatiently.
He was really a little bored with his son's naivety.
Cui Zhongzhen is now completely able to take charge of himself, but in his opinion, Cui Zhongzhen is still the son who is not a weapon. Or maybe he gave too much hope. Now that Cui Zhongzhen has matured, his former disappointment has turned into greater hope, so it is inevitable that the requirements will be higher.
"Fang Xie is not a person who does things casually, since he wants to do this, there must be some purpose. Even if he's not targeting you or us, he's definitely guarding against something. ”
"What should I do?"
Choi Jung-jin asked.
"Don't do it."
Cui You said: "How to do things, how do you still do things, the success or failure of this matter is not on you, you are just the one who stood up at the most critical moment." So you don't need to go too deep into anything, so that even if Fang Xie perceives something, he won't suspect you. So all to do is do nothing, wait for us, wait for us to pave the way for you......"
"Got it."
Cui Zhongzhen nodded.
When he lowered his head, there was some sadness in his eyes.
Because he knew that his father still didn't have any love for him, and this arrangement was indeed to keep him from harm, but only if it ...... For the sake of the family, not because he is the son of Choi You.
At this moment, the housekeeper outside rushed over with the sound of footsteps.
"Sir!"
The housekeeper said outside: "Before the Xiao Riding School, someone came to deliver a letter, saying that the prince knew that you had come to the capital and wanted to visit!" ”
Cui You was stunned, and suddenly felt uneasy in his heart.
