While Xue Poye was surprised, Hua Xian had already affirmed his guess.
While Xue Poye was surprised, Hua Xian had already affirmed his guess.
Hua Xian stood up, saluted the rough man very respectfully, and said, "Chief rudder, this is Xue Poye, the rudder master of Hangzhou sub-rudder."
Xue Poye looked at the chief rudder Yang Yao. According to his previous guess, this chief rudder should be a literati with a face like a crown jade and elegant temperament, just like Liu Songren played in the movie "The Deer and Ding Tale" he had seen in his previous life. Chen Jinnan was just like Chen Jinnan, but he never expected that Qing Lianzhao's chief helmsman was such a rough and unruly man.
However, although Xue Poye didn't hear much about Yang Yao's deeds, Uncle Shu said something about Yang Yao in the Hongyan Pagoda. Therefore, although this person looked very rough on the outside and seemed to be a carefree person, Xue Poye Ye Xin knew clearly that this was just a cover-up, this Yang Yao was a scheming guy.
Xue Poye's five senses were already beyond ordinary people, but he didn't realize the existence of Yang Yao. From this point of view, Yang Yao's martial arts cultivation should not be underestimated.
Although from the bottom of his heart, Xue Poye has a feeling of disgust for the whole Qinglianzhao besides his feelings for the Hangzhou branch, but at this moment, after all, he has not cleared Qinglianzhao's identity, so With a respectful look on his face, he saluted and said, "This subordinate has seen the chief rudder."
Yang Yaohe approached affectionately, hugged Xue Poye, then patted Xue Poye's shoulder heavily and smiled: "Brother Xue, I have heard of you a long time ago, but I have been busy and have no time to see you, this time I am in the capital , I asked the military adviser to arrange it immediately, no matter what, I have to meet Brother Xue, haha... You really are a young hero, amazing, come, come, sit down and talk!"
Xue Poye saw Yang Yao put down his posture and acted so affectionately, he was a little dazed, but he was even more on guard in his heart. This person behaved like this, it can be seen that he is an extremely hypocritical person, but he should be careful.
He once had a glimmer of hope for the chief rudder, even if he was not as benevolent and loyal as Chen Jinnan, at least it was reasonable, but this first meeting, that little hope was instantly shattered.
This chief rudder is obviously a sinister figure, and I'm afraid he is not under Hua Xian.
After taking his seat, Yang Yao said with a smile: "Brother Xue, Yang Yao is a rough man and can't speak, but this loyalty is still the first priority. Brother Xue has done a lot of great things for Qinglianzhao, I know Don't worry, brother Xue, our Qinglian photo will be rewarded for meritorious service, I will discuss with Nei Wutang later and transfer Brother Xue to work in Nei Wutang."
Xue Poye smiled and said: "The chief helmsman has given too much credit for his duties."
Yang Yao nodded and said: "Brother Xue has meritorious deeds but is not arrogant, it is really rare, um... he is a good man."
Xue Poye took a look at Yuezhu and saw that she was well built. Although Xue Poye was very unhappy when two guys appeared in Yuezhu's room, but at this moment, he could only suppress his anger and pretend to be false.
"Chief rudder, do you have any orders for coming here?" Xue Poye said respectfully, "The chief rudder has an order, and his subordinates will try their best to do it."
Yang Yao said with a smile: "The most important thing when I come here this time is to meet Brother Xue." After a pause, he said with a smile: "However, there are two things that Brother Xue needs to help discuss."
Xue Poye sneered in his heart: "Just tell me if you have something to ask me directly. It's not a gentleman's act to make a fuss and be timid." The dislike for the chief rudder increased a bit, but he still smiled on his face: "Boss Helmsman, it’s okay to say something if you have something to do.”
"Brother Xue, now you are very powerful in the court. I heard that even the little emperor wants to listen to you. This situation is really a blessing for me, Qinglianzhao." Yang Yao said with a smile: "How about it, Arrange some of your own brothers to enter the court first, what do you think?"
"Entry?" Xue Poye was startled.
He suddenly understood what Yang Yao meant. This guy obviously wanted to use his own hands to infiltrate Qinglianzhao's power into the court. This is much more powerful than assassinating members of the royal family. The network, the context formed after that, can really attack the Great Chu Dynasty from the foundation.
Yang Yao said kindly: "Our Great Shu Kingdom was trampled by the Chu Kingdom a hundred years ago, and the country was ruined and the family was destroyed. Naturally, this kind of national enmity must be avenged. For a hundred years, the descendants of the Great Shu have all rebelled against Chu and restored Shu. It's my responsibility, but the state of Chu is powerful, we Qinglianzhao can only wait for the opportunity." Looking at Huaxian, he said softly: "But now that Brother Xue is gaining power in the court, it is a golden opportunity for me, Qinglianzhao. , as long as our people are placed in the various yamen of the imperial court, within two years, our brothers Qing Lianzhao will spread all over the court and the public. Definitely. Brother Xue, do you agree or not?"
Xue Poye sneered in his heart, but his face showed a look of sudden realization, and said: "So that's the case, it's so good, don't worry, Chief Steward, I will arrange this matter as soon as possible."
At this moment, verbal perfunctory is necessary, and Yuezhu is by his side. If he turns his face, it will be a great disadvantage to Yuezhu, not to mention that these two are the number one and two people in Qinglian Zhaopai, and he must be alone. Not the opponent of the two of them.
At this moment, Xue Poye suddenly realized that Qinglianzhao, whom he joined in the first place by mistake, has now become his biggest burden, and even the biggest threat to the little emperor.
Yang Yao coughed lightly, Hua Xian nodded, took out a booklet from his bosom, stepped forward and handed it to Xue Poye, and said with a smile: "Master Xue, what is written on it are some official positions in the imperial court. , can’t be regarded as high-ranking officials, but they are all places where we need to deploy people, you should take a look first.”
Xue Poye frowned, opened the brochure and looked at it, secretly startled.
There are as many as 30 or 40 official positions in this booklet, involving the three divisions and six departments, and many official positions in the Habayashi Battalion, the Jingtong Army, and the Garrison Army. It seems that the grades are not high, but every position are extremely important.
Just like the official position of Yubayashiying, it is not a commanding officer like Captain Dutong, but a logistics officer who controls food, grass and weapons. It seems simple, but its importance is self-evident.
Other official positions are also of great importance. The selection of these official positions was obviously refined by Qing Lianzhao after careful consideration, and their research on official power seems to be extremely profound.
Those official positions one after another were like daggers after daggers, piercing into Xue Poye's heart.
Xue Poye knew that the current imperial court belonged to Xiao Shitou, and the arrangement of these officials was actually to stab dozens of sharp daggers into Xiao Shitou's heart.
We must think of a way... .
But at this time, he couldn't express the slightest objection, so he looked at it casually again, put it in his arms, and sighed: "Chief rudder, this...the placement of these official positions is extremely important. There will be ministers talking, and Lan Wuqing is not a fool, if so many people are sent into these yamen at once, I am afraid it will make him suspicious, and that would be a bit bad."
Hua Xian said leisurely: "Master Xue is now in power, the placement of these officials is not difficult for Lord Xue at all. Moreover, we do not require Master Xue to arrange the placement of these officials at the same time. Step by step, just insert it slowly." After a pause, he took a glance at the young Yuezhu intentionally or unintentionally, and said in his words: "Master Xue's family members are all in the capital now, so they want to live here permanently. There is still plenty of time. Yes, and this is also good, we will often come to visit, Master Xue, don't you think?"
There was a trace of murderous intent in Xue Poye's eyes that was not noticed by others. The words were easy to say, but they were actually implying Xue Poye that although your Bi Youjing was detoxified, your family members are still under our noses. Since we If you can escape Habayashi Wei's guards and come into Yuezhu's boudoir quietly, then as long as you are dishonest, we can marry their lives anytime and anywhere.
"What the military advisor said is very true." Xue Poye smiled and said, "Arranging bit by bit, it can always be done. Please rest assured, the chief helmsman and the military advisor, the things that you two ordered, will be easily handled by the subordinates." .”
Yang Yao nodded slightly satisfied, and said with a smile, "That's very good. That's right, Brother Xue made this great contribution. In order to assist Brother Xue and make you more important in the court, we will give you a big gift."
"Gift?"
"That's right." Yang Yao stroked his needle-like beard and said, "However, this gift can't be taken out today, but it will take a few days before it can be handed over to Brother Xue."
Xue Poye was very puzzled, and wondered: "But I don't know what kind of gift the Chief Steward is talking about?"
Yang Yao waved his hands and said with a smile: "Don't say it, don't say it, at least one or two days, at most three to five days, the gift should be presented. Well... brother Xue, you and I finally met today, and the pain in my heart has been fulfilled." I hope we don’t spare too much, and when the gift arrives in the capital, I will send someone to notify Brother Xue.”
Standing up, he clasped his fists and said, "Farewell!" He waved his left hand, and with a "chick", he shot towards the naked Yuezhu.
Xue Poye was taken aback, and was about to make a move when he saw Yang Yao and Hua Xian flash towards the gate like ghosts, and when the gate opened and closed, the two left in an instant.
…
…
When Xue Poye arrived at the bedside, he found Yuezhu waking up leisurely, he was relieved, presumably Yuezhu had been tapped on the acupoints before, and before leaving, Yang Yao's energy was the release acupoint.
The method of releasing the acupoints from the air is very powerful.
"Xianggong...!" Yue Zhu opened his eyes and was a little surprised when he saw Xue Poye.
Xue Poye naturally wouldn't let her be frightened, and said softly: "Little darling, are you awake? Mr. Xianggong misses you, must you be tired for a while." Gently pulling Yuezhu's hand, he looked at her tenderly and infinitely. she.
Yuezhu scratched her head and wondered, "Why did I sleep like this? Well... I don't even know that my husband came in."
Xue Poye sighed secretly in his heart: "Silly girl, it's not just that you don't know when I come in. You don't know that two big men came into your room, and they talked with your husband for a long time." Gently pulled Yuezhu, hugged her In his arms, he said softly: "It's my little darling who works hard every day and is too tired. No, you have to rest at home these few days. The accounts at Ziyanfang are temporarily handed over to other people. I don't want my darling to be tired." After speaking, she lightly kissed Yuezhu's cheek.
There was warmth flowing from Yuezhu's body, and she felt extremely sweet. She snuggled into Xue Poye's arms and said softly: "Master, when we were in Hangzhou, my brother and I had to worry about three meals a day, but now I have enough food and clothing, and I am married to you, so I am really happy. As long as I can do something for you, Yuezhu will be very happy...!"
Xue Poye hugged Yue Zhure's hot body tightly, and murmured: "I want to make your life better... I won't let anyone hurt you...!" Xue Poye sneered in his heart: "If you touch Yuezhu and Suzhen's hair, I will really make Qinglianzhao completely disappear from the Great Chu Kingdom."
The existence of Qinglianzhao is definitely a threat to Da Chu's imperial power and Xiao Shitou. Xue Poye frowned for the stability of Xiao Shitou's imperial power. It is time to think of some countermeasures.
Stay in the moon and bamboo room that night, give a lot of rain and dew, make the most of the lingering, and enjoy the sex.
The next morning, the court was presided over by Lan Wuqing and Xue Poye. The new emperor sat in the court to listen to the government. Your Majesty, today there is a report from the prefecture that Mingyue King has passed through Huozhou and is leading a pilgrimage team to the capital. I am afraid that he will arrive within ten days. I would like to ask your Majesty, what kind of treatment should I receive?"
Honglu Temple is the yamen responsible for the etiquette of diplomatic relations. This Mingyue King is the land master of Yongzhou. According to normal rules, it is the border of the Great Chu Kingdom, and the Ministry of Rites should arrange to welcome him. Greeting has always been sublimated to the reception of a king, so it has always been arranged by Honglu Temple.
King Mingyue came to Beijing, but Xue Poye knew some clues.
Emperor Deqing passed away, and when the new emperor came to the throne, Mingyue King's papers were presented to the Yushitai. It was nothing more than going to Beijing to pay homage to the former emperor and the new emperor. Under the discussion of Wu Qing and other ministers, the imperial court issued a decree, temporarily ordering Mingyue King not to enter Beijing under the pretext that Yongzhou is an important place and cannot be separated from King Mingyue.
However, King Mingyue is a member of the royal family and the prince of Great Chu. It is reasonable and reasonable for him to go to Beijing to pay homage. , King Mingyue led a pilgrimage team of thousands of people to Beijing, and his subordinates could not exceed this number.
If the horse gallops fast, it will take half a month to travel from Yongzhou to Kyoto. The Mingyue King's brigade marched and brought countless gifts and tributes, so the journey was naturally much slower. Reporting Mingyue King's movements seems to be a concern for Mingyue King, but in fact it is to guard against Mingyue King.
King Mingyue sits in Yongzhou and is an honorable member of the royal family with high prestige. Yongzhou has a Northwest Army with 100,000 armored troops. Naturally, all court officials must be on strict guard.
The little emperor frowned, glanced at Xue Poye, and said loudly: "Mingyue King is the prince of Da Chu, just follow the prince's rules."
Xue Poye and Lan Wuqing looked at each other, but they didn't teach the little emperor these words.
"My servant complies with the decree!" Just as Qin Luo, the Minister of Honghe Temple, stepped down, Kong Bufan, Minister of the Ministry of Rites, immediately came out and said, "I would like to report to the Holy Majesty, if the greeting is according to the prince's ceremony, then it should be handled by the Ministry of Rites. Only the late emperor was here. At that time, when King Mingyue came to the capital, he treated each other with the courtesy of a monarch, and if there is a change this time, I am afraid that King Mingyue will be a little dissatisfied."
The little emperor said indifferently: "The prince is the prince, how did he become the king? How many emperors does the Great Chu Kingdom have?"
Kong Bufan was so startled that he knelt down on the ground and said repeatedly: "My minister made a mistake, my minister made a mistake."
All civil and military officials in the court secretly glanced at Xue Poye, most of them thought that Xue Poye taught him what the little emperor said, even Lan Wuqing was a little puzzled, glanced at Xue Poye, only to see Xue Poye shaking his hand at him. Shaking his head, from this point of view, these are the little emperor's own words.
Lan Wuqing came out and said, "Your Majesty, Master Kong's words are not bad. When the late Emperor was here, King Mingyue came to Beijing and greeted him according to the etiquette of the king. Since the emperor ordered to welcome him according to the etiquette of the prince, then this matter will be left to you." The Ministry of Rites will do it."
The little emperor glanced at Xue Poye, smiled, and said: "Just as the prime minister said, Kong Bufan, let your Ministry of Rites handle the matter of welcoming King Mingyue... It should be more lively, after all, it belongs to our Dachu." Lord Shuguan."
These words are really level. The so-called "Prince Shuguan" means very clear. King Mingyue is the boss in Yongzhou. I don't recognize him as the emperor of a country within a country. He is just a prince who helps me guard the border.
Among the courtiers, some ministers thought to themselves: "This little emperor really doesn't know the heights of heaven and earth. How could King Mingyue offend him? Treat him like a prince... Hehe, I'm afraid he will anger King Mingyue."
Some even thought: "Mingyue King has an elegant temperament and a broad-minded heart. Even if he neglects with ordinary official etiquette, I am afraid that Mingyue King will not care? It's just that his group of people is a bit tricky."
Lan Wuqing immediately said: "Kong Shangshu, let your Ministry of Rites take care of this matter." Then he said: "Master Xue, the subordinates of King Mingyue came to Beijing. In order to avoid trouble, Habayashi Wei pretended to be a protector. Take more control."
Xue Poye hurriedly said: "That should be the case. Don't worry, the Prime Minister. The next official will do his best to maintain the safety and order of the capital."
After this matter was discussed, under the auspices of Lan Wuqing, other court affairs were discussed, and the court ended.
After leaving Qianlin Hall, Xue Poye hurriedly stopped when he heard Lan Wuqing calling out, "Prime Minister!"
Lan Wuqing said softly: "Lord Xue, the Holy Majesty greeted King Mingyue with the gift of a prince. Do you think there will be any troubles? Although King Mingyue is generous and kind, there are many powerful civil servants and generals under his command." character."
Xue Poye said "Oh", and said softly with a smile: "In the opinion of the prime minister, should we invite the emperor to greet him as a king?"
Lan Wuqing shook her head and said, "Master Xue misunderstood the meaning of the old man." After a pause, she approached and said, "Master Xue, the Holy Spirit has this meaning, and the old minister also agrees with it. This is a big Chu country, and the emperor ordered the world. In Yongzhou, it is not allowed to implement it, even if ordinary people see it, they will feel that the state affairs are not right, let alone the Holy One."
Xue Poye became interested, and the two talked while talking, asking, "What does the prime minister mean?"
A sharp look flashed across Lan Wuqing's eyes, and said: "In my opinion, this situation should have been decided long ago. Mingyue King's coming to Beijing this time is a great opportunity...!" Looking around, she got even closer Said: "You and I, please play the sage, and take advantage of King Mingyue's entry into Beijing to imprison him in the capital, and if he is not released back to Yongzhou, you can give King Mingyue a lot of rewards, and even build a palace for him in the capital, but you must not allow him Leave Kyoto."
Xue Poye nodded, and thoughtfully said: "Although this plan is good, but... King Mingyue is trapped in the capital, how can his subordinates deal with it? Prime Minister, in Yongzhou, King Mingyue seems to have 100,000 armored Northwest Army ah."
"Northwest Army?" Lan Wuqing said with a smile on her old face, "Mingyue King is not married, and he has no descendants... If the ministers of civil and military affairs in Yongzhou want to rebel, they always have to show their banners, but Mingyue King is kept in the capital by the court. Eating and drinking offerings, what banner can they play? Do they dare to use the banner of the Mingyue King? In this way, if they make a slight change, it is a rebellion. Without the banner and appeal of the Mingyue King, I, Da Chu San Of the sixteen prefectures, excluding Yongzhou, there are still thirty-five prefectures, even if the good and the bad are mixed, it is still more than enough for the whole country to quell chaos in one prefecture."
Xue Poye laughed and said: "If they don't rebel, we can use the name of King Mingyue to transfer those diehards to the capital one by one... In this way, Yongzhou will belong to the imperial court in a short time...!"
The two looked at each other and smiled, one thought "Ginger is still hot when old", and the other thought "Green out of blue is better than blue", both admired in their hearts.
