Zhang Xuan didn't understand why Li Yan would invite him alone and ask himself this.
Court?
Zhang Xuan took a deep breath.
This matter is quite subtle.
Zhang Xuan is Zhang Yuzhen's uncle. This is a very obvious thing. Logically speaking, he should be biased towards the Southern People's Party...
but.
Li Yan summoned him, but not Li Hang...
This matter itself is very wrong.
Li Yan's questions made him feel on pins and needles...
Could it be that the king knows something?
Does he know what kind of agreement he has with Longyan's Liu Shilang?
He pondered for a moment and then said: "Your Majesty, this veteran is just a merchant, helping your Majesty with the trade matters of Long Yan. I really don't dare to interfere too much in matters involving the court!"
Li Yan looked at Zhang Xuan quietly.
In fact, he just wanted to test Zhang Xuan...
Let’s see if he is truly on the side of the Southerners.
Answer......
Let him be a little disappointed.
Zhang Xuan is now Zhang Yuzhen's uncle. If Zhang Yuzhen can become the queen, then Zhang Xuan will definitely be the uncle. He is on the same level as today's Min Weizhong.
If his stance cannot be firmer, there will still be some resistance to Li Yan's idea of completely suppressing the Westerners.
"Is that so..."
Li Yan chuckled.
Zhang Xuan was so frightened that he was sweating profusely and immediately knew what Li Yan meant.
Your Majesty, you are forcing yourself to take sides today...
Thinking of Li Yin's attitude towards Min Weizhong in the court today, Zhang Xuan immediately had something to say in his mind. Who is Zhang Xuan? At this time, the biggest opportunist in the Li Dynasty, he talked about people and told ghosts. He immediately
Hehe smiled: "Your Majesty, I have a suggestion..."
"explain!"
Li Yan's eyes moved.
Zhang Xuan then said: "The old minister suggested to the king that the Min Chamber of Commerce and the peace officers should be reused. Only by slowly figuring them out can we find the right path!"
Li Yan then smiled slightly.
The Min Chamber of Commerce and these officials are all very close to the southerners.
"Hmph, Min Wei Zhong, these Westerners, has been domineering for many years and has gone too far to bully others!"
Li Yan snorted coldly and said, "If we just remove these people all at once, we are worried about political instability. What does Zhang Aiqing think?"
Come again!
Zhang Xuan felt that his back was getting wet and quickly nodded in agreement.
"Well, let's go first."
Li Yan said lightly.
Only when Zhang Xuan walked out of the door did he dare to straighten up.
Who wants to.
He had just walked a few steps, and there was already a carriage waiting in the dark. He was shocked and smiled bitterly, knowing who was coming.
really.
As soon as he got on the carriage, he saw Li Hang and Zhao Shixi waiting for him.
"Master Zhang is the only one favored by the king. He really envy us!"
Li Hangpi said with a smile.
Zhang Xuan waited for the carriage to move, then he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "How do you say this, Mr. Li? In the current situation, only if we work together can..."
then.
He recounted the exact conversation he had with Li Yan.
Li Hang looked at Zhang Xuan quietly for a few times. He also knew what kind of person this Zhang Xuan was, but parting ways with him at this time would not be a good thing for the already weak southerners.
He chuckled: "It seems that the king is determined to suppress Min Weizhong this time!"
However, he immediately frowned and said, "It's just that it seems that the king doesn't particularly trust us southerners."
The three of them nodded in unison.
It seems that the struggle between the two sides will continue for some time.
Li Hang's face suddenly turned cold: "We are in such a passive situation entirely because of that Liu Shilang from Long Yan!"
