Chapter 297 The ghost master in Ma Qian Street, nursery rhymes in Bianliang City
Chen Zongshan's death did not cause much disturbance in Bianliang City.
Apart from the usual rewards, titles, and titles, not many people even came to express their condolences.
It's not that his status is not popular enough, but that the Song Dynasty Hall is in the whirlpool of Nuo Da at this time, and he will be involved in it if he is not careful.
Everyone was in danger, and they had no intention of paying condolences to a Imperial Guardsman who had nothing to do with him in the past.
This is also the traditional skill of the Great Song Dynasty, the court battle.
The cause was that a group of old faction launched a large-scale impeachment attack against the new faction, and the target was clearly directed at Xianggong Cai Jing and Cai, who was extremely powerful at this time.
In the past, Cai Jing, who was highly skilled and proficient in the art of maneuvering, would have been able to recognize the idiots of the old school.
But this time it was different. Mr. Cai Jing and Mr. Cai felt unprecedented pressure.
First, there was a traitor around him. His eldest son, Cai You, gave him a gorgeous backstab. He stood with the old school and gave his father a series of kidney shots and backstabs, which had a great impact on the morale of Cai Jing's faction.
big.
Feeling the heavy weight, Li Yunze turned around with a smile, "Why are you panicking? Of course I believe you. Did you say anything interesting when you were chatting?"
Not to mention Cai Jing, even if Guan Zhong and Lu Buwei came, there would be nothing they could do.
"
Geng Nanzhong, whose eyelids were twitching wildly, spoke with a trembling voice, "What resolution are you making?"
"Master Geng, His Highness the Crown Prince is in danger~~~"
There are those who are joking and asking, "Your Majesty, why is this?"
Because of this, not many people paid attention to the death of Taiwei Chen due to illness, and even when Li Yunze returned to the court, no one came to greet him.
"Ha~~~"
Moreover, in the Song Dynasty, from the court to the local government, almost everyone in the turban did not reach out. No matter how developed commerce was, it was only the productivity of the feudal era. How could it sustain the greed of so many people? Naturally, the income has been declining year after year.
"The officials seem to be dissatisfied with Xianggong Cai, saying that his management is too lenient, and that the court's income has been declining in recent years."
Everyone was so applauded that Zhao Kaile was even more confused.
This is a rebellion!
"It's impossible." Geng Nanzhong, who was sweating profusely, shook his head repeatedly, "How can it be like this~~~"
At this time, under Li Yunze's push, his position as prince was already on the verge of collapse. Under the huge pressure, the red-eyed Zhao Huan was about to break.
They only pursue the immediate enjoyment, and even wear the clothes of their enemies and feel complacent about them. They even think that Kunlun slaves are quite good.
"Have the officials been here recently?" After putting away the instruments, Li Yunze picked up the tea bowl and took a sip, and asked casually.
To put it bluntly, he didn't want to establish a prince, he just wanted to be an official and live forever for thousands of years.
"Prince?" Li Shishi, who served Li Yunze more tea, tried hard to remember, "I don't think I mentioned it before, but I did mention that King Yun was filial and sensible, and he was the most like him."
The next day, when Prince Zhao Huan greeted Zhao Ji, he carefully mentioned the nursery rhymes that had been circulating in Bianliang City recently.
This is indeed true.
From Liu Rong to Yang Yong, and then to Li Chengqian.
Geng Nanzhong knew that what Li Yunze said was reasonable, but he had no way to deal with it. He could only think about it anxiously, "What should I do?"
Li Yunze, who looked solemn, immediately said, "Master Geng, please report to His Highness the Crown Prince. If you don't want to end up like Liu Rong, Yang Yong and others, it's time to make up your mind."
Without Li Yunze, things would have been the same as before, and Zhao Huan would have been worried all day long and gradually dissipated.
"You don't know yet." Zhao Kai, who was blushing, expressed cheerfully, "The official family intends to betroth Sister Twenty-one to Taiwei Wu, and they will become brothers-in-law from now on."
"
Official Zhao Ji's attitude towards this matter was still ambiguous. He ignored it as if he had no idea at all, and allowed Zhao Kai to make the situation bigger.
For the prince, beating has always been the main method.
Because Zhao Ji actually really thought about it seriously and finally gave him a word.
Ma Qian Street, Money Lane, Li Shishi's Residence.
Zhao Ji's response made Zhao Huan's heart feel cold.
After all, Cai Xianggong, who had all the power in the world, also made the officials feel that his power was too great.
After hearing this, Geng Nanzhong felt as if he had been struck by lightning, his legs and feet became weak and he slumped to the ground.
Over there, Li Yunze slowly added another blow, "In the past, have you ever seen any deposed prince have a good ending?"
"I said that if you want to completely resolve the danger, you can only ask the officials to give in." Li Yunze raised his head and sighed, "If you don't believe it, you can ask the prince to meet with the officials about the rumors of nursery rhymes in Bianliang City, and pretend to give in in exchange of retreat.
Give the throne to King Yun and see what the officials say and do.
With his personal destiny and future at stake, the panicked Geng Nanzhong hurriedly stepped forward, pulled Li Yunze's sleeves and begged, "Please teach me, Lieutenant Commander~~~"
Li Yunze, who picked up a towel to wipe the instrument, smiled when he heard this and did not explain to him, 'If there were not warriors like us out there fighting to death, you would have been kidnapped by the savages and taken to the tents and become ****.'
Whoever can get the money will use it.
Li Yunze's smile became even wider: "Didn't you talk about the prince?"
Then he pretended to give in, saying that his third brother was of outstanding ability and character and that he was willing to give way.
"I'm sorry, I'm late."
Faced with the impeachment of the old school, the officials ignored it as if they didn't know, instead of directly refuting and throwing it back as in the past, or simply driving out of Bianliang City and dispatching it to remote military states.
Neither Zhao Ji nor Zhao Kai, nor the other court officials who were watching with cold eyes, cared about the prince's attitude.
After sitting like this stupidly for a long time, he suddenly slammed the table and said, "Master Geng, go and ask for Lieutenant Wu!"
But now Li Yunze took the initiative to find Geng Nanzhong, the prince's teacher.
But Hua Shigang caused Cai Mo Fang La to revolt, and the entire Jiangnan region was reduced to a mess. Naturally, taxes were greatly reduced.
"This, this, this." After hearing this and thinking of the nursery rhymes circulating in Bianliang City in recent days, Geng Nanzhong suddenly became confused and said, "How can the words of such a prostitute be taken seriously?"
The confused Zhao Huan returned to the East Palace and remained silent in the face of Geng Nanzhong who asked eagerly.
"Hey."
"Captain, save me~~~" Geng Nanzhong hurriedly hugged his thigh and begged, "Captain, please save me, save the prince~~~"
To put it bluntly, the officials are tacitly approving this matter.
Li Shishi, who originally had a lazy look on his face, hurriedly stood up and came over to hug Li Yunze from behind. He explained with a hint of fear, "During the time you were away, you came here twice. They just had wine and listened to music, and chatted for a while before returning."
The palace has gone, there really is nothing else to do, you believe me.
"You have only established the crown prince for a few years. The time is not right now. It will cause discussion in the world. Let's talk about it after some time."
Zhao Kai, the king of Yun who was in charge of the Imperial City Division, was overjoyed when he learned about this.
When the banquet was in a lively atmosphere, another guest came to the box.
Seeing this person, King Yun Zhao Kai laughed immediately and pulled the visitor to Li Yunze and introduced, "This is Mr. Cai, the fifth son of Mr. Cai. You two should get closer and closer."
After meeting, Li Yunze's first words made Geng Nanzhong's eyelids twitch wildly.
After all, your eldest son has betrayed you, so how can others trust you?
That's the eldest son!
But this is not the most important thing. The most important point is that the official attitude towards this matter is ambiguous.
Geng Nanzhong is the prince's teacher, just like a grasshopper on a rope. If the prince is deposed, his end will be that he will be sent to Yazhou to go fishing, and then he will either die of illness or lose his footing and drown on the way.
The deposed princes of the past dynasties all met extremely miserable ends.
If the Jin people had not gone south, Zhao Huan would not have been able to retain his position as crown prince.
Li Yunze raised his eyelids and looked at him, and said calmly, "I hope the officials can practice Taoism with peace of mind and seek immortality and Zen status!"
He hurriedly asked, "Why did you say this?"
This is a very obvious signal.
"I spent hundreds of millions of dollars to get the news from Master Li." Li Yunze, who looked serious, immediately said, "She said that when the officials went to her place to have wine and listen to music, they once said that King Yun was like himself, and he wanted to
Easy to store!”
Just like what is written in the poem by Du Mu, "A business woman does not know the hatred of her country's subjugation."
Li Yunze immediately laughed, "Master Geng, officials would never say such words in the palace. But when they go out to play, they are most likely to reveal their true feelings!"
In history, Zhao Huan really put Zhao Ji under house arrest, but he still had the courage.
Instead of investigating where the nursery rhymes originated, they secretly added fuel to the fire and launched another attack on the crown prince's position.
Both Cai Jing and Cai You focused on the court, and no one considered Li Yunze's role at all.
The room was still warm, and the handsome Li Shishi lazily let go of the jade flute and looked at Li Yunze with charming eyes: "Bianliang City is so good, why don't you stay in the city and enjoy yourself instead of playing around outside all day long?"
How boring."
"Oh." Li Yunze, who was sitting on the chair of Da Ma Jin Dao, nodded, "What's more, there is nothing to do in the court?"
In the afternoon of that day, Geng Nanzhong hurriedly went to see the prince.
Zhao Ji re-employed Cai Jing because Cai Jing could get money.
Zhao Kai, who was in high spirits during happy events, spoke with high spirits, and even mysteriously expressed to the guests, "The prince intends to give way to the king."
This person is a typical mediocre person, the kind of loser who can't even fight in court.
Li Yunze sneered, and simply stood up and waved his sleeves to show off. "In that case, let's pretend that I haven't been here today. When Master Geng is sent to Yazhou in the future, I will go out of the city to see him off."
"Master Geng, the situation is critical now and we have no other choice."
Over there, Li Yunze went to a banquet and was having wine with King Yun Zhao Kai and others.
"Very good." Li Yunze became more and more satisfied and waved to the girl, "Come here and squat down, I'll give you the prize."
"Interesting thing?" Master Li pondered for a moment and thought, "I actually told you that I intend to betroth the Emperor Ji to you."
After all, after more than a hundred years of releasing military power over a glass of wine, everyone has become accustomed to the fact that military generals have no effect except being suppressed.
A few days later, rumors began to spread in Bianliang City, and children were singing nursery rhymes along the streets, "Prince Yun is like an official, and the prince should give way to the wise~~~".
If you want to maintain the prosperity of Fengheng Heda, if you want to leave a prosperous age comparable to Wenjing, Zhenguan, and Kaiyuan in the history books, if you want to continue to enjoy endless glory and wealth, you need a huge amount of money.
After all, the impression of Prince Zhao Huanwen as weak and timid has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
Li Yunze squinted his eyes and looked at Cai Jing's fifth son, Cai Ji.
He was fair-skinned, handsome, and dressed in a blue shirt, a typical scholar of the Song Dynasty.
Historically, when the Jin army besieged the city and demanded Emperor Maode, Cai Chi, as a husband, did not dare to protect his wife, but instead took the initiative to send her out of the city.
It is a perfect interpretation of the word waste.
Li Yunze stood up with a friendly smile on his face, "It turns out to be Brother Cai. You and I should get closer in the future."
