The rise of the prince

Chapter 96

People have different ways of going up the stairs. You can tell people by listening to the sound. Ji Chunsheng always walks up the stairs with two steps and one step, so his footsteps are loud and slow.De Gong is slow and steady, Gillian's footsteps are very light and not fast, Qiu'er is very similar to Gillian, Yue'er just thumps, wishing he could take ten steps a second, and He Qian is very similar to Yue'er.

So Li Ye knew He Qian was coming when he heard the rushing sound.

Sure enough, the little girl appeared at the stairs very quickly, but when she turned around, Li Ye was stunned. Today, He Qian was not wearing an armed weapon, but a beautiful daughter's dress in her life, with a warm jacket outside The little cotton-padded jacket, beautiful and playful, if not for the sword in his hand, he would really look like a generous lady.

"What are you looking at, hooligan." The little girl walked over with a ruthless mouth, and saw Wei Yubai at the table suddenly froze, and her face turned cold: "Who is she? Are you going back to your old business and getting flowers everywhere?" Mess."

The wine that Li Ye brought to his mouth spewed out all of a sudden: "What is going back to the old business, can you use words?" It seems that he is a prostitute for a career, but think about Li Xingzhou's behavior before Let's count it.

"This is Mrs. Wei's daughter, Wei Yubai, who is a family friend with the palace." Li Ye had no choice but to introduce the two to each other one by one. Wei Yubai was really surprised when he heard that He Qian was He Zhao's beloved daughter.

Afterwards, Li Ye directly asked He Qian to help. With the character of a little girl, it was easy to say, if she helped, she would help, and if she didn't help, she wouldn't help.

A table of sumptuous food was also delivered at this time, He Qian thought for a while and asked, "Why did you help her?"

"His father and I are good friends for life."

"Okay, then I'll help you." He Qian agreed straightforwardly: "But you owe me a favor, and if I have something to do in the future, you will also help me."

"Okay, okay, I owe you a favor." Li Ye said with a smile.

"I don't believe you, you have to make written evidence." The little girl was still worried.

Li Ye had no choice but to take a pen and paper and really write her a letter. The little girl happily agreed this time, and he was finally relieved. As long as He Qian's help later, Wei Yubai would definitely be able to see He Zhao anytime.

In this way, He Zhao has won the foreign aid.

In fact, saving Wei Chaoren and Li Ye is not blindly confident, he has carefully considered it, and there are at least two reasons why it is feasible.

One is that the officials clamoring for Wei Chaoren's death must also be divided into two categories. He has seen this kind of thing a lot.

One is to really want him to die, and the reasons are different, it can be hatred, it can be to see him unhappy, it can be to join in the fun and add insult to injury.

And more should be to peep at the dispatch of Wei Chaoren's Guanbei Jiedushi, Jiedushi, that is the local emperor with real power in his hands, more attractive than many first- and second-rank officials in Beijing!

That's why he asked Wei Yubai to ask He Zhao to propose a new Jiedushi, so that those who peeped into the Jiedushi's position would no longer think about killing Wei Chaoren, because it didn't matter whether Wei Chaoren died or not. It is the mission of Jiedushi.

Moreover, the Wei family has been running Guanbei for many years. If the new Jiedu envoy wants to gain a firm foothold in Guanbei, he must win over the Wei family. Maybe someone will turn their guns around and speak for Wei Chaoren.

The second point is that the emperor is about to go to war. Only Degong and he know this. Talking about soldiers on paper is a big taboo for military strategists. At this time, a general who has war experience and can lead troops is extremely important. The same is true for Wei Chaoren!

The morning court that day was only a small court, and most of the officials in the previous court were reporting on the preparations for the New Year, the preparations for the ceremony of the Ministry of Rituals, the summary of the training of the forbidden army in the three Yamen, and the deployment of the national army for the coming year by the Privy Council.

Among them, the matter of deployment and defense related to the state system is a major matter, and it is also the most important thing. Of course, there is another matter related to Guanbei, and other matters have long been settled.

The ritual department of offering sacrifices to the sky will arrange it by itself, and if there are no mistakes in the rules, it will be fine.And the San Ya has no real power at all, it's just a routine job, just a show.The most important thing is that the deployment of the Imperial Army in the coming year has already been handled by the Privy Envoy, and Zhong Daoyu, who has been in charge of the Privy Council for many years, will naturally not go wrong.

After talking and talking, in the end, there is only the matter of Guan Beiwei Chaoren.

Jiedushi is a senior official who guards one side, and is in charge of one side's affairs. The real feudal official, of course, can't handle it casually.

In the court, the crown prince was the head, and Yu Cheng'an, the political advisor, Yang Hongzhao, the commander in front of the palace, Tong Guan, the infantry commander of the guards, Mo Minyun, a member of Zhongshushe, and others advocated the killing of Wei Chaoren, while the privy envoy Zhong Daoyu felt that Wei Chaoren was not guilty of death, but only weak in power.

Seeing that the old general Zhong Daoyu was like this, Zhao Guanghua, the commander of the guard Ma Junsi, also came out to intercede for Wei Chaoren. Everyone knew that Zhao Guanghua was originally from the old general Zhong, so it was not surprising.

But at this moment, Zhu Yue, the Wude envoy of the Wude Division, also stood up to support the prince, and the situation was once again one-sided.

The Department of Wu De is in charge of the keys of the imperial city, guarding the safety of the royal family, and also investigating information for the emperor. He has always been under the direct jurisdiction of the emperor.

Under such circumstances, just when the ministers thought that Wei Chaoren was destined to die, Yin He Zhao of the Kaiyuan Mansion, who had never intervened in Guanbei affairs, suddenly stood up and advised the emperor, hoping to set up a new Guanbei military governor as soon as possible to stabilize the situation. The situation in Guanbei, otherwise, if the Liao people continue to go south in the spring of next year, there will be a big omission.

Immediately, Yang Hongzhao, the commander in front of the palace, and Tong Guan, the commander of the infantry of the guards, also stood up to second the proposal, and the situation was reversed instantly.

The emperor thought it was reasonable, praised He Zhaozhi's generality, and after worrying about the country, he changed the topic and began to discuss the new Guanbei Jiedu envoy, not how to deal with Wei Chaoren.

After the court meeting was over, the prince walked out of the hall with a sullen face, cursing in a low voice: "Good for you, Yang Hongzhao, good for you, Tong Guan!"

Yu Chengan hurried over: "Why is the prince angry?"

"Why? If it wasn't for Yang Hongzhao and Tong Guan's sudden change of mind today, Wei Chaoren would have died by now!" The prince said angrily: "I see them all filled with righteous indignation on weekdays, saying what about Wei Chaoren, but today they say When the critical moment comes, they will all change their minds as soon as He Zhao interrupts them!"

Yu Cheng comforted his beard and said, "Couldn't the prince see clearly, it wasn't Yang Hongzhao or Tong Guan who saved Wei Chaoren today, but He Zhao."

"He Zhao?" The crown prince snorted, and said disdainfully, "He just proposed as usual, how did he save Wei Chaoren?"

Yu Chengan shook his head: "Yang Hongzhao and Tong Guan killed Wei Chaoren because they wanted to replace him, and it's hard to mention them as candidates, so His Majesty will only meet to appoint a new Jiedushi after Wei Chaoren's death.

But now that He Zhao mentioned it this way, even if Wei Chaoren survived, they would still have a chance to become Guanbei Jiedushi.So why bother to offend Wei Chaoren, after all, the Wei family is deeply rooted in Guanbei and has a deep influence, maybe they will speak for Wei Chaoren tomorrow. "

"Zhuzi!" The prince cursed through gritted teeth.

Seeing that he was furious, Yu Chengan just smiled, and then quickly left, doubts abounded in his heart, he didn't look like He Zhao when he said that, could there be someone behind it, or that He Zhao was biased towards Wei Chaoren, why didn't he speak up before?
