In fact, while riding the carriage to the Prime Minister's Mansion, Lu Yao also made some plans on how to persuade Yan Shu.
Looking at Yan Shu's achievements, one thing that has to be mentioned is Yan Shu's attainments in literature, especially poetry. Lu Yao thought that he could actually start from this aspect. After all, he had the entire Southern Song dynasty's poetry.
The library can be used by himself. Even if Yan Shu proposes a poetry competition, Lu Yao is actually not afraid. Although Lu Yao has actually written only a few poems from time to time, but every poem is
He was praised by everyone in the literary world. Brothers Ouyang Xiu, Su Shi and Su Zhe, and even Fan Zhongyan all praised him. Lu Yao didn't believe that these words would not reach Yan Shu's ears. So, after a while, he met Mr. Xianggong and learned from literature.
On the other hand, it is very important to leave a good impression on Yan Shu first. For this reason, Lu Yao has actually brewed several poems in his mind that he can use when the time comes.
In addition to literature, Lu Yao felt that Yan Shu's attitude towards the Song and Xia Dynasties was also an important breakthrough, which can also be said to be the most critical point. After grasping Yan Shu's attitude and thoughts on this war, Lu Yao knew that he should
What to say, not just for a while, but also at the gathering in Fanlou tomorrow, Lu Yao only needs to be united with Yan Shu and express his attitude, and then he can pass the risk. After all, as the prime minister, Yan Shu's attitude is very important
To a certain extent, this is the attitude of Emperor Zhao Zhen. It is impossible for the prime minister to say that he wants to fight and the emperor to say that he wants to make peace. This is definitely unreasonable.
The last aspect is the direction of employment. In fact, Yan Shu is surrounded by many capable people. Not to mention the distant ones, the current Ouyang Xiu, Fan Zhongyan, Han Qi and others have a very close relationship with Yan Shu. Speaking of which
In fact, Lu Yao still admires Yan Shu. Fan Zhongyan's turmoil caused so much trouble before, but Yan Shu was not affected at all. On the one hand, it shows that this person has high emotional intelligence and can protect himself when something goes wrong. On the other hand, Yan Shu is not affected at all.
On the other hand, it also shows that Zhao Zhen has great trust in Yan Shu. Among the people who were closely related to Yan Shu, Lu Yao found that there was one missing person in the court. This person was the one who would cause trouble in the Song Dynasty.
Wang Anshi was in a turbulent situation. As for Wang Anshi's reform, anyone who knows a little history will have an impression of this matter. His reform was far more powerful than Fan Zhongyan's Qingli New Deal, and it lasted for a long time. However, at this time,
Wang Anshi should still be an official in other places, and he should be less than forty years old. Thinking of this, Lu Yao suddenly had an idea in his mind. Fan Zhongyan and Wang Anshi were both generals in the reform, and Yan Shu cherished them very much.
Talents, if I recommend Wang Anshi to Yan Shu at this time, it will definitely have a very good effect. As for what kind of achievements Wang Anshi will make after arriving in Bianliang, that is another story.
Lu Yao is not worried at all. The current Wang Anshi is a hidden dragon, and he will definitely prosper in the future.
These were Lu Yao's plans in his mind before meeting Yan Shu, to persuade Yan Shu from three aspects to attend the bank's opening event tomorrow. However, it turned out that the plan could not keep up with the changes.
Lu Yao never thought that the housekeeper of his husband Yan Shu, who had left a good impression on him, would be such a shameless person. He would directly decide for Yan Shu not to see him because of his lower official position. What's even more annoying is that
, he also directly marked the price and began to ask for money from Lu Yao as a condition for Lu Yao to enter the prime minister's house. In fact, Lu Yao thought about it carefully, the housekeeper Li Fei should have regarded Lu Yao as those who wanted to see him through
It is true that these officials would not care about giving some money to the housekeeper in order to get promoted. However, Li Fei underestimated the relationship between Lu Yao and Yan Shu. The most important thing was that he was wrong.
He estimated the character of Lu Yao. Later, Lu Yao fought with Tang Xi. It can be said that the prime minister's house was turned upside down. More than a dozen servants were knocked to the ground by them. Although Lu Yao was fighting at that time,
There was still a bit of excitement in his heart. It had been a long time since he had done any physical exercise. However, the process of fighting was indeed thrilling, but what was the result of the fight? Lu Yao only started after he stopped.
Considering the consequences of doing this, it seems that I am still immature, and I forgot about it for a moment just now.
Apart from anything else, where is this place, the Prime Minister's Mansion? As the person with the highest power besides the emperor, Yan Shu has many pairs of eyes staring at him on weekdays. If nothing else is said, if Lu Yao wants to start a bank now, Zhao Zhen will do it.
Tang Long sent people to watch Lu Yao's every move, so let alone Yan Shu, this matter might have spread to the palace while Lu Yao and Tang Xi were working with these servants. And Bian
Others in Liang City will probably get this news tomorrow. How should I deal with it? Will the emperor blame himself for this matter?
For the current plan, he could only quickly think of a way to calm down the matter. So, Lu Yao pointed his finger at the housekeeper Li Fei who had blocked him just now.
So, when Yan Shu appeared, Lu Yao mentioned that the reason why he took action in the Prime Minister's Mansion was because he couldn't stand the evil spirit of Li Fei. In fact, Lu Yao was also a little confused in his heart. According to Yan Shu, Li Fei
Fei's predecessor, the former housekeeper of the Prime Minister's Mansion, was driven away because of corruption and collecting money privately. Li Fei should also be kicked out after being punished for fifty times today. So what does Yan Shu think about these things?
Do you know or don't you know? Lu Yao doesn't believe it if he instructs his butler to collect money and let people in. However, Lu Yao doesn't believe it if he doesn't know the reason at all.
. However, these have nothing to do with Lu Yao. He came today just to see Yan Shu, and to fight with Li Fei and blame him for the mistake was just Lu Yao's way of blocking the mouths of those who wanted to gossip.
In this way, basically everyone will not speak ill of Lu Yao, but will only say that the housekeeper of the Prime Minister's Mansion does not know how to commend himself, and he would do such a dirty thing as collecting money, and Yan Shu can also do the same
Showing complete ignorance and firing the housekeeper, this way the impact on Yan Shu can be minimized, which can be said to be the best of both worlds.
At that moment, Yan Shu ordered his men to beat Li Fei fifty times and then kicked him out. Lu Yao felt that this move was very wise.
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
Come and give a conclusion to those who want to laugh at the Prime Minister's Mansion. Secondly, even if someone wants to really investigate this matter, Li Fei has already left the Prime Minister's Mansion and may leave Bianliang directly later.
I couldn't find it all the time, so I couldn't investigate it. In the end, I could only believe the conclusions given by Yan Shu and Lu Yao.
However, the incident of Lu Yao coming to Yan Shu today happened at night. As long as Yan Shu used his own connections and methods, it would be easy for him to avoid being known. Of course, Zhao Zhen could not escape.
He should definitely know about this.
After Li Fei left, Yan Shu invited Lu Yao to the main hall, and Tang Xi stood behind Lu Yao. Lu Yao first expressed his apology to Yan Shu. If the bank had not opened tomorrow, Lu Yao would not have adopted this method.
, at worst, just come back during the day.
Of course, although Yan Shu should have thought of a way to deal with the aftermath, Lu Yao still used words to criticize Yan Shu. He said that it is better not to let more people know about this matter. He is only a fifth-grade official now and it will affect him.
It doesn't matter, but Yan Shu is the husband-in-law. If what happened today affects Yan Shu, Lu Yao will still feel very sorry in his heart.
Yan Shu had an indifferent attitude towards this, saying that he would do a good job in dealing with the aftermath. And he also believed that if it weren't for something important, Lu Yao would not have attacked Li Fei just now. Speaking of Li Fei, Yan Shu
He said that if Lu Yao hadn't arrived today, he might have been deceived by this hateful housekeeper for a long time. Then Yan Shu told Lu Yao that this Li Fei was a friend of a distant relative of his, because in the outer city of Bianliang, there was
When he couldn't survive anymore, he asked himself to find a job for him, and he has been working as an errand in the Prime Minister's Mansion ever since. He did quite well in the first two years. Then something happened to the previous butler, so Yan Shu promoted him to the butler. Unexpectedly, this
Li Fei turned out to be such a person. Yan Shu had people drive him out of the Prime Minister's Mansion and directly expel him from Bianliang. Lu Yao felt that there would be problems with Li Fei's survival. Yan Shu said that he should have been greedy before.
With little money, whether he can survive depends on his own life.
At this point, Lu Yao had a general understanding of Li Fei's affairs. It had to be said that even Yan Shu had to abide by the rules of this humane society. He had already helped Li Fei with an errand, and he was doing it in the Prime Minister's Mansion.
Housekeeper, for such a good job, ordinary people will definitely not be able to achieve this position. However, people are not like snakes swallowing elephants, and Li Fei finally got such an end, and it is his own fault. Then, Yan Shu expressed his gratitude to Lu Yao, if it were not for Lu Yao
Yao, he himself didn't know that Li Fei was doing these dirty things behind his back. If he continued to let it go, the only one who would be implicated and suffer by Li Fei would be Yan Shu himself.
Although Lu Yao still had doubts about what Yan Shu said about Li Fei and whether he knew the truth, now that the matter had been properly handled by Yan Shu, there was no need for him to delve deeper.
"Looking at Mr. Lu's attitude today, he does have something urgent to discuss with me. If you have anything, you might as well speak up."
Back to business, it was getting late, Yan Shu finally asked Lu Yao the purpose of coming today.
Lu Yao then said: "I'm here for tomorrow's matters."
When Yan Shu heard this, he smiled and said: "Master Lu is so smart. He naturally has a way to deal with the meeting in Fanlou tomorrow. Why do you come to ask me?"
When Lu Yao heard this, he quickly said: "Master Yan Shu misunderstood, I am not here for the party tomorrow night."
After hearing this, Yan Shu said: "That's because I was abrupt. May I ask what Mr. Lu is here for tomorrow?"
Lu Yao then told Yan Shu about the bank's opening tomorrow. After briefly introducing the bank's business and vision as well as the purpose of its establishment, Lu Yao finally sent an invitation to Yan Shu, hoping that he could be there tomorrow.
In fact, Lu Yao himself was not sure whether Yan Shu could agree to Lu Yao's request. Originally, he planned to lobby Yan Shu through the three aspects mentioned before, but he never thought that he would be beaten by Li Fei after the Prime Minister's Mansion.
This directly disrupted his plan. Now the Prime Minister's Mansion has been messed up by Lu Yao and Tang Xi. Lu Yao also wants Yan Shu to attend the bank opening event tomorrow, which makes other people think Lu Yao is joking.
As a minister, Han Yonghe also selectively attended the opening events of some businessmen he was familiar with. However, Yan Shu had a very high emotional intelligence and had already reached the position of prime minister, so he could be hired casually.
What's more, Lu Yao smashed his mansion again. However, Lu Yao believed in his heart that after listening to his introduction just now, Yan Shu would still be tempted. After all, this thing is an industry that benefits the people.
When other people knew about it, they would only say that Yan Shu had a vision and worked for the welfare of the poor people, but would not say that he was greedy for money or anything like that.
Lu Yao finished what he needed to say, and then waited for Yan Shu's reply.
Yan Shu thought for a while and said: "I heard your Majesty talk about the bank before, as well as the food street and hot pot restaurant you want to build in the outer city."
Lu Yaoxin said that it was indeed the prime minister. He had mentioned the matter of his food street and hot pot restaurant to Zhao Zhen alone before. Except for the emperor, his family and partners, Lu Yao had never mentioned it to anyone. As for Yan Shu, as
My husband, he will definitely not have contact with Pan Yuanwu, Zhang Maocai and others, so if he knows what Lu Yao wants to do, it must be the emperor Zhao Zhen who told him. In this case, it is better to listen to Yan Shu's opinions on these industries
practices.
"Originally, I was optimistic about your ability and wanted to persuade you to transform the industry. But now you are mainly engaged in food, and you are also doing more things for the people. It is really rare." Yan Shu.
I don't know if I said this to Lu Yao or to myself. "I still need to think about tomorrow's matter. You also know that as the prime minister, I basically don't care about business matters like this."
For those involved, I think you can ask Mr. Han Yonghe if you are going to marry their Miss Han Yunyu soon. He will definitely agree to attend such a thing."
Lu Yao smiled in his heart at what he said as a typical excuse. However, judging from what Yan Shu did to Lu Yao just now,
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
Judging from the evaluation of those industries, this matter is still negotiable. In this case, Lu Yao felt that he would directly use his trump card, so he said: "My lord, what if I use a talent to exchange for your attendance tomorrow?"
?”
When Yan Shu heard the word talent, he immediately looked at Lu Yao and said, "Oh? Sir Xiao Lu, are you going to recommend talents to me? But in this Bianliang City, are there any hermits I don't know?"
Although Yan Shu's words were arrogant, we could still see Yan Shu's love for talents. He really hoped that there would be more ambitious people in the court. In Yan Shu's opinion, Lu Yao himself was young and had passed the imperial examination.
Even if he officially enters the officialdom, who can he recommend to himself is just delaying time.
However, in the face of Yan Shu's doubts, Lu Yao seemed very confident and said: "Master Yan Shu, once the talent recommended by me enters the imperial court, as long as he is placed in a core position, he will definitely make a difference.
, when the time comes, you can also safely retire from your position as father-in-law."
There is a profound meaning in Lu Yao's words, and it is impossible for Yan Shu not to know it. Usually, the more powerful the ministers are, the greater the risk factor will be in the end. Although Yan Shu is much younger than Fan Zhongyan and others, in fact, he has now begun to
It’s time to look for a successor to Xiang Gong. As for Bao Zheng, he is a good person. Yan Shu thinks that if he is good at dealing with people internally, his ability to handle things externally is still a bit inferior to Bao Zheng. Listening to what Lu Yao said today, does he really know what he means?
There are still great talents in Bianliang City? If this is the case, wouldn't it be better if I introduce this person to the emperor, and then I can step down from the position of husband and spend the rest of my life in peace? The current situation, Fan Zhongyan's
The scope of power is getting bigger and bigger, and after the imperial examination is over, the emperor will also cultivate his own power. As a veteran of the two dynasties, Yan Shu is used to overt and covert fights in the court. In fact, he is already a little tired, but this time Song Xia's affairs are...
Suddenly, Yan Shu knew that he still needed to take action on this matter, but after that, he actually no longer wanted to care about this important political matter in the court.
"I wonder where the great talent Mr. Lu mentioned is currently in Bianliang City?" Yan Shu asked after thinking for a while.
Lu Yao said with a smile: "This person's name is Wang Anshi, and he is not an official in Bianliang now. You can use your connections and connections to investigate this person's achievements and abilities. If you think it is okay, you can use your own name to report to
The emperor recommends this person, and I can guarantee that his ability is not inferior to that of Sir Fan Zhongyan."
Wang Anshi? Yan Shu felt that he had heard this name mentioned before, and it seemed that he was a good official from other places. However, Lu Yao actually directly said that Wang Anshi was more powerful than Fan Zhongyan. Yan Shu would never believe this, at least now.
.However, Yan Shu could tell from Lu Yao's firm eyes that Lu Yao was not joking, and considering Lu Yao's achievements and abilities, the person he recommended should not be an ordinary character.
"Is he really as powerful as you say?" Yan Shu asked again.
Lu Yao nodded and said, "That's true. My husband can investigate him starting tomorrow. I won't tell lies."
Yan Shu said: "It's just that he is not in Bianliang, how did Mr. Lu know his abilities?"
Lu Yao said: "Master Yan Shu, there is no need to ask more questions. He is indeed a rare talent."
After thinking about it, Yan Shu finally agreed to Lu Yao's request. He said that after the morning court tomorrow, he would go to Lu Yao's bank to attend the opening event. However, Yan Shu said that he should not let himself do anything like giving a speech on stage.
Lu Yao said that he would never do this. Lu Yao decided to leave it to his father, Lu Xu, to speak on stage. Han Yonghe and Yan Shu were not needed.
So far, the three people Lu Yao will invite tomorrow are Cao You, Han Yonghe and Yan Shu. Among them, Yan Shu's status and ability are naturally the most outstanding. The prime minister of the dynasty can patronize Lu Yao's bank. This bank's
You can't go wrong with your business.
After talking about the business, Lu Yao also relaxed. Yan Shu looked at Lu Yao and said, "Master Lu, don't forget that in addition to your bank tomorrow, there will also be a party at Fanlou in the evening."
Lu Yao nodded and said, "I will never forget such an important gathering."
Yan Shu then said: "I wonder what Mr. Xiao Lu thinks of this gathering tomorrow night?"
Lu Yao knew that Yan Shu was actually testing him by asking such a question. However, the purpose of his trip had been achieved, and Lu Yao was too lazy to deal with Yan Shu anymore, so he said: "If you ask me, tomorrow's party is
I just want to give Fan Zhongyan and Han Qi some advice and express everyone’s attitude."
Lu Yao spoke like this to make Yan Shu feel that he was lacking in political acumen and failed to analyze that tomorrow's party was actually held under the emperor's instructions. But what kind of person Yan Shu was, through Lu Yao's expression and expression when he spoke
The tone has been analyzed, and it can be said that Lu Yao is actually very confident about tomorrow's party. This can be seen from the fact that when he offered advice and said that Lu Yao was here for tomorrow's event, Lu Yao directly refused. In fact, Lu Yao is very confident about tomorrow night's party.
Sufficient preparations have been made for the party. Moreover, Yan Shu felt that Lu Yao had already analyzed that the party tomorrow night was held under the emperor's instructions, but he was just pretending not to know now.
After hearing Lu Yao's answer, Yan Shu did not continue to ask what Lu Yao's attitude was. It looked like Lu Yao didn't want to continue talking about this issue.
The two continued chatting for a while, and it gradually became dark, so Lu Yao said goodbye to Yan Shu and left the Prime Minister's Mansion. After Lu Yao left, Yan Shu immediately sent people to prepare to investigate Wang Anshi.
On Lu Yao's side, he chatted with Tang Xi on the way back. It could be seen that Tang Xi, who had not moved his muscles for a long time, also enjoyed the fight just now, but he was different from Lu Yao.
But I didn't think about the consequences at all.
After that, Tangxi also reported to Lu Yao about the situation when he went to Cao Mansion. Cao You directly agreed to come and attend tomorrow's event. This attitude did not go beyond Lu Yao's expectations at all.
