Cai Jing heard this, bowed again, and left. Zhao Ji also turned around, his eyes full of confusion.

That night, in the imperial study, I saw Cai Jing slowly entering. Zhao Ji looked depressed, said lightly, and retreated left and right. Suddenly, only Zhao Ji and Cai Jingjunchen were left in the imperial study. After Cai Jing finished saluting, Zhao Ji groaned for a while, and opened his mouth to ask: "How does the prime minister think I should be prepared?" ”

Cai Jing's heart moved when he heard this, a little cunning flashed in his calm eyes, and he said quickly: "Your Majesty can try how loyal he is first." ”

"Go on."

"The old minister heard that Liu Yanqing transferred most of the soldiers and horses under the old thief to Yanshan in order to prevent turmoil in the army. There are tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, and the generals in their army must be anxious and uneasy, lest they be implicated by the old thief. His Majesty can send Liang Sicheng to Yanshan to appease the troops first, and then order Liu Yanqing and Liang Sicheng to take Yanjing. If you don't want to, this person will already have a bad heart, and you can order Liang Sicheng to quickly lead troops to attack him! ”

Cai Jing's eyes were gloomy and ruthless, but what he said was serious. Zhao Ji couldn't help but squint his eyes, and said coldly: "What the prime minister said is not unreasonable. But in order not to startle the snake, this matter must be done cautiously, and do not leak the slightest rumor, otherwise if the gains outweigh the losses, I only ask!! ”

When Cai Jing heard this, he was overjoyed, and hurriedly replied: "Your Majesty doesn't have to worry too much, the old minister will definitely do it!" ”

"Good. Without further ado, you hurry down and prepare, explain the benefits and disadvantages to Liang Aiqing first, and when everything is arranged, I will issue an edict ordering him to go out of the army! Zhao Ji rubbed his aching temples, slightly tired. Seeing this, Cai Jing should claim to make a promise, and he is also concerned.

Half an hour later, Cai Jing left the palace, boarded the carriage in a hurry, and rushed to Liang Sicheng's mansion.

At the same time, it was said that Tong Guan rebelled to no avail, and finally died, Zhao Ji ordered his family to be beheaded, all his family wealth was confiscated, and his Taiwei Mansion was rewarded to Liang Sicheng. Liang Sicheng was promoted, it was the spring breeze that was proud, and he did not hesitate to spend a lot of money to renovate the Taiwei Mansion, but now he still lives in the original mansion.

"Congratulations to Lord Liang for his high move, now Lord Liang has great power in the army, and he is enough to compete with Cai Xiang in the court, which can be said to be above 10,000 people under one person."

In the secret room behind Liang Sicheng's study again, Qin Hui smiled and saluted. Liang Sicheng was overjoyed when he heard this, he laughed loudly, and he narrowed his eyes when he saw it, and said in a condensed voice: "Hahaha~!! This is all thanks to the resourcefulness of the nephew, if it wasn't for the nephew's previous teaching, how could the old man get what he wanted!? The nephew is expected to join the army and be a staff officer under the old man? ”

Qin Hui's eyes lit up, he looked flattered, and hurriedly bowed: "The younger generation is only a shallow learner, but I am afraid of living up to Lord Liang's high expectations!" ”

"Hey! You don't want to be hypocritical with the old man, you are a literary star, how is your ability, doesn't the old man know!? In this way, the old man will recommend to His Majesty tomorrow as the commander of the army and the observer, with a five-grade official position! The nephew is still young, and if he is promoted too quickly, there will be ministers in the court who will disagree. I've wronged you first. ”

It seems that this Liang Sicheng is indeed appreciative of Qin Hui, but it can be known that Deng Yun and Han Shizhong are working the front line, dying for a lifetime, experiencing nearly a year of war, and establishing many miraculous feats, only to be in the sixth rank of official position. And Qin Hui is just a mouthful, but he is a five-grade official, and Liang Sicheng is afraid that he will not like it in his heart, so he speaks to appease him, feeling wronged by him! It's really sad and sad!

"Lord Liang's words are wrong, the younger generations don't care about the size of the official position, I just hope to be able to exert a little effort around Lord Liang, in order to repay Lord Liang's kindness, that is, I am satisfied." Qin Hui's face was pale, and Liang Sicheng was overjoyed, and his jaw applauded again and again.

Suddenly, outside the secret room, someone was tapping on the door of the study, intermittently a total of three sounds, the sound was weak, if you didn't listen carefully, you couldn't find any clues. Liang Sicheng's face changed, and then he said coldly to Qin Hui beside him: "This matter is decided." Nephew, you will first come to the army tomorrow to familiarize yourself, and the old man will send someone to your home to pick you up. Hide it, the old fox is here again. ”

When Qin Hui heard this, his face was shocked, and he no longer pretended to be hypocritical, and he retreated to the back, not knowing which mechanism he pressed, a wall slowly turned, and he flashed in in a hurry. At the same time, Liang Sicheng also pressed a certain mechanism, looked at the wall in front of him, and looked at both sides to open, and an opening quickly appeared. Liang Sicheng strode out, and soon came to the hall, and saw Cai Jing drinking tea in the guest seat, beating his demeanor, secretly thinking that his identity is different now, and he can no longer be like before, like a lackey led by the nose by this old fox, walking quickly, and is about to speak.

Suddenly, Cai Jing raised his head, his eyes were terrifying, and he said with a look that seemed to be smiling but not smiling: "The old man is an idler, but he just waited for a cup of tea, thinking that Taiwei Liang is not what it used to be, it must be a noble person, how dare he disturb, when he wanted to go home, Taiwei Liang came again, what a coincidence!" ”

When Liang Sicheng heard this, he sneered in his heart, and his expression was a little colder: "The younger brother is fortunate to be appreciated by His Majesty and has been able to take up a heavy position. ”

"Huh. How dare you, how dare you. The old man has a story, I wonder if Mrs. Liang wants to listen to it? Cai Jing's smile was even brighter, and he suddenly said. Liang Sicheng walked to the chairman of the Central Committee and said with a smile: "Listen to me." ”

"A long time ago, there was a dragon king who was particularly greedy, and his favorite thing was to eat wild fowl and game, but he was too lazy to catch it. At that time, he found a tiger in the mountains and caught it for him. The tiger is no more than a wild fowl in the mortal world, and while he is afraid of the dragon king, he also wants to become a master, that is, he hunts for the dragon king with all his life. The dragon king admired the tiger's diligence and cast his mana to make the tiger a tiger spirit. Later, this tiger spirit was driven by the dragon king for a lifetime, and I heard that the dragon king had a dragon ball hidden in his jaw. So the tiger spirit took advantage of one day, when the dragon king was asleep, and wanted to attack, but was hit by the dragon king's unintentional nose, which caused the thunder to blow up and shattered his bones. Later, the dragon king woke up, and also heard about the evil intentions of the tiger spirit from the goblins in the mountains, although he was furious in his heart, but the tiger spirit was dead, and he could not take revenge, so the dragon king was wary. However, the dragon king was greedy for food and sleep, and later found a fox to hunt for him. The fox is cunning by nature, and he also wants to get benefits from the dragon king and cultivate to become a refinement. But how do you know that the dragon king has already been vigilant because of the matter of the tiger spirit. Later, although he helped the fox become a goblin. But one day, the vixen provoked the opponent and was bitten off his leg, so that although the vixen could still hunt, it was not as good as before. One day, the dragon king chose another fierce lion to hunt for him, and the vixen ended up being the dragon king's meal. ”

Cai Jing cheered and said lightly. Liang Sicheng was also dry and upset when he heard it, and he had already drunk a pot of tea.

After Cai Jing finished speaking, he asked Liang Sicheng with a smile: "I wonder what Taiwei Liang thinks of this story?" ”

Liang Sicheng clutched the teacup in his hand tightly, as if he was about to crush the teacup, and pressed it on a few sons with a 'snap', and said angrily: "Cai Xiang's intention is really ordinary, but there is a metaphor hidden in it, which is somewhat interesting." ”

"Huh. Mrs. Liang is too careful, and a story is a story. Different people listen to different people, and the inspiration is also different, how can there be a metaphor? Okay, I heard that you are going to relocate, and the old man wants to walk around, but is Mrs. Liang willing? Cai Jing waved his hand lightly, and then stood up. Seeing this, Liang Sicheng thought that Cai Jing had something urgent to talk about secretly, and he also wanted to see what kind of medicine he was selling in his gourd, so he slowly got up and replied, "Please." ”

Cai Jing smiled when he heard this, Liang Sicheng led the way in front and turned into the side courtyard, most of the servants and slaves in the house were avoided, and the house seemed particularly quiet. The two of them walked to a corridor that led straight to the study. Cai Jing suddenly stopped, walked to the side of the carved railing, looked up at the moon, and said in a low voice: "The moonlight is quite good tonight, let's talk here." ”

Liang Sicheng's face changed slightly, and he was about to speak, when Cai Jing suddenly opened his mouth and said: "Liu Yanqing is now far away from Yanyun, but he has a lot of power, and the emperor is far away. Since Tong Guan's incident, His Majesty has found it difficult to trust others. Your Majesty ordered the old man to tell you to go to Yanjing to try his loyalty. ”

Liang Sicheng's face suddenly changed when he heard this, his heart twitched, and he hurriedly asked, "I don't know how Your Majesty wants me to tempt?" ”

Cai Jing's expression froze, and he told him about the countermeasures he discussed with Zhao Ji. Liang Sicheng hesitated when he heard this, he had no ability to lead the troops to fight, if Liu Yanqing had bad intentions, his subordinates were strong and strong, and there were countless generals under his command, and he occupied enough geographical advantages to defend the city, how could he be his opponent! But in case, at least he will return with a feather and be dismissed from his official position, or at worst, he will die on the battlefield and have no place to be buried! ”

Thinking of this, Liang Sicheng's heart suddenly cooled down, and he hurriedly begged Cai Jing: "Cai Xiang, this!" Your Majesty may not know, but Cai Xiang has been friends with his younger brother for many years, so he doesn't know that his younger brother doesn't know the art of war at all, and he can't march and fight, so how can he be Liu Yanqing's opponent!? Why don't Cai Xiang discuss with His Majesty, and say that seeing that the younger brother is unwell, it is not suitable to go on the expedition, so he chooses someone else? If it can be done, the little brother will be grateful, and in the future, Cai Xiangma will be the first to look forward!! ”

"Hehe, that's weird. In the same way, the old man clearly remembers that seven or eight years ago, you also told the old man. At that time, you knelt and bowed, much more sincere than now. And if you say something like this a second time, won't it seem like you're slapping yourself in the mouth!? Cai Jing smiled lovely, and his eyes narrowed with laughter. Liang Sicheng's face was tense, he gritted his teeth, his eyes were full of resentment and anger, and he said coldly: "Over the years, Cai Xiang, the little brother has obeyed your words and driven you arbitrarily, and you should be satisfied." The life of the little brother should not be a lackey for a lifetime! ”

"Hahahaha!! Mrs. Liang is serious, serious!! The old man and you are both literate and martial, but the head of the hundred civil and military officials in the court today, except for Your Majesty, you and I are the most respected in the Great Song Dynasty.

Although the old man is based on the court, the younger brother is determined by martial arts. Although the Song Kingdom attaches great importance to literature on the surface, but after all, civil officials are civil officials, and the iron pen can never fight the blade, it stands to reason that the old man is actually afraid of Liang Taiwei for three points, how dare he be disrespectful? Such as the words of the right talent, Mrs. Liang must not say it again, the old man really can't afford it!! Cai Jing laughed loudly, but the tone in his mouth sounded sarcastic.

Liang Sicheng trembled with anger, and said in a cold voice: "Cai Xiangke once thought that if the junior brother was lucky to win, or that Liu Yanqing had no objection at all, and the junior brother took back Yanjing, His Majesty would be overjoyed, and then Cai Xiang, where should you be!?" ”

"Then the old man will wish you success first, Mrs. Liang. And this is the first important military matter sent by His Majesty since you took office, and I hope that Captain Liang, you take care of your health, don't go out on a business trip, so that Your Majesty, who is determined to promote you, will lose face in front of the Manchu Dynasty civil and military! Cai Jing saw Liang Sicheng angry and threatened, but he was secretly happy in his heart, so he turned around and said lightly: "It's not early, the old man is tired, and I hope that Mrs. Liang will go to court early tomorrow!" ”

After speaking, Cai Jing walked away. Liang Sicheng's eyes were full of cruelty, and he was angry, but he didn't dare to attack, and hurried to look at the study, but he didn't know that Cai Jing stood on the opposite side and watched him leave in a hurry.

"Hmph, it seems that there are Tibetans in that secret room, what a clever lackey!! I'm afraid you're messing with the wrong person!! ”
