Chapter 191 Mystery

Taiping's smile was very sudden. Tang Song turned his head and looked at her, "Why are you laughing at?"

"The girl named Shuijing next to you is not Zhang Jianzhi's granddaughter. I thought you must also support Si Li."

"I really don't care who was the emperor before, but now, I really hope that King Luling will succeed to the throne." Speaking of this, Tang Song shook his head at Taiping, "It would be nice if you can be the emperor, hey, it's a pity..."

Upon hearing this, Taiping looked strange and looked very strange, "Do you really have this idea? What a pity?"

Now, as long as Tang Song talks with Taiping, he can be let go of the secrets like Shangguan Wan'er. In addition, there is no third person present here, and the environment is private. "The courage of King Luling has been scared by His Majesty. It is said that every time he hears an envoy from the court, he thinks that His Majesty wants to kill him, and then she burst into tears and almost wants to die. He relies on Princess Wei's comfort to barely hold on. How can a person's fear of being so scared? "

"As for King Wu Chengsi of Wei, he has been prime minister for many years, but he has never been able to achieve any political achievements over the years. People often talk about the King of Wei as "respected as a throne, no meritorious, and no labor". In this way, even if he ascended the throne and became the king, it would be difficult to make his subjects return to his heart."

Tang Song shook the teacup in his hand, "As far as you see, princess, your character and ability are much stronger than these two people. He has the identity of the daughter of Li Tang and the wife of Wu, so he is naturally qualified to ask for the importance of the magnitude. But unfortunately, Your Majesty has no intention to let you participate in politics at all, and under the current situation, it is impossible to ascend to the throne without His Majesty's strong support. It is particularly a pity that your business has been too short and your foundation is too shallow. If you don't have enough strength, you will be useless to say anything."

In Shen Sisi's boudoir, Tang Song's words completely broke the deepest thoughts that Taiping had been covered with clouds and mountains. This indirectly pushed the relationship between the two to a new level.

Listening quietly, his face turned completely cold after listening, and there was no longer the charm of the past that was hidden. "Oh, are you teasing me? Or are you trying to help me get out of trouble?"

Taiping, Taiping, you finally admit it!

Tang Song put down the teacup in his hand, shook his head and smiled, "The princess said this just now. I really don't care who is the emperor, but now the situation has developed to this point. Because the King of Liang in the Martial Arts Party poses too much threat to me, I can only sincerely hope that the Li Party can win. Since you and I are allies, I must not let you know about this thought and hardship first."

"Being smart" Tai Ping sniffed coldly and looked at Tang Song with disdain. "The two Wushu have been fighting openly and secretly for so many years. Even though they are now in a mess, the cracks between them will never be destroyed in one go. Wu Chengsi is a natural suspicious person. I dare to guarantee that if he can really ascend to the throne, the first thing he wants to deal with would be Wu Sansi, who poses the greatest threat to him. On the contrary, how could Wu Sansi be willing to be inferior? It was because of the Queen Mother being pressed on him over the years, otherwise he would have fought to the death. You always think that you are a fool, and you can't even see such a simple thing?"

"When did I think I had changed my mind?" Tang Song replied, but he couldn't help but admit that Taiping's analysis of the relationship between the two Wus was correct. This was clearly recorded in later historical books. Wu Sansi did not only once seeking succession.

Since that's the case, why did the Erwu merge again this time? This is a new change that was not originally in history, and it is also a problem that Tang Song couldn't figure out.

After walking slowly in the room for a long time, Tang Song suddenly turned around and stared at Taiping's eyes, "Can't it be... Wu Sansi is using Wu Chengsi, and he has a backup plan?!"

Taiping smiled when he heard this, just like the national flower and peonies blooming, and they were unparalleled in beauty.

Tang Song left the Song and Wu Shengping Building, and after breaking up with Taiping, it was already dusk when he returned home. As soon as he walked into the second yard, he saw two children, who were combed with double buns and aged 50 or 7, playing in the yard. The child then spread his arms around him, like an old hen protecting his chicks.

Tang Yuan obviously likes children very much and has enough experience in caring for people. Therefore, not only does he take good care of these two children, but he also enjoys it. His smiling face exudes a strong maternal brilliance.

And further apart, Chen Xuanli leaned against a osmanthus tree and watched the scene quietly. With a silly smile, he was so focused that he didn't even notice Tang Song came in.

The sun sets, the children playing, the women who are looking after them with a loving look on their faces, and the man who is watching all this with a silly smile further away. The scene in front of him is so warm and harmonious.

Looking at this scene, Tang Song suddenly moved his heart, and he remembered the jokes when Huayue Tower drank with the imperial guards that day. Zhang Silang and others who were disrupting the situation had not arrived yet, and the fight had not started yet. While waiting for the arrival of Shen Sisi, the eldest lady of the town building, he joked with Chen Xuanli, the widower who had killed his wife. At that time, Tang Song was still patting his chest and saying that he must find a good wife for Brother Chen.

Even after the fight that night, when he came back from Taiping, he met Chen Xuanli, who had returned, he joked about this topic.

Thinking about those jokes and looking at the extremely warm scene in front of you is really touching.

Tang Song took light steps and quietly walked around Chen Xuanli from the other side of the yard. Unfortunately, this thief-like behavior was discovered by Chen Xuanli's two sons, which further alarmed Tang Yuan and Chen Xuanli.

"General Chen has come a long time, so I will definitely say that I will wait for you to come back and then buy wine."

"Sister, take my two nephews to play, so I and my elder brother have some good drinks." Tang Song reached out and put his hand on Chen Xuanli's shoulder, and said in a very casual tone as he walked in: "How is it, my sister is good, right?"

Chen Xuanli didn't doubt it and nodded solemnly, "Let my sister be kind-hearted and gentle, she is indeed a good woman."

Tang Song stopped doing it now and glared at him, "What? Is it just a kind and good temper?"

Chen Xuanli glanced at Tang Song in shock, then smiled awkwardly, "This...of course, my sister's appearance is also a beauty."

After understanding Chen Xuanli's view of Tang Yuan, Tang Song did not say much. One reason was that some things were not suitable for him as his younger brother, and the other was that haste would be inconsistent. Anyway, the two families are very close now. Let's cultivate their feelings first. If they can succeed in the end, it will be natural. If it cannot be done, Tang Song would never force it. After all, Tang Yuan really can't stand another tragic marriage.

After entering the flower hall, the two sat and drank together. Chen Xuanli was talking about the placement of retired veterans of the Imperial Army the previous time. After these days, 67 of Wanqi's more than 300 retired veterans were willing to work at the Hongwen Seal Society.

But these people all put forward a common requirement, that their hometown is in that state. Tang Song needed to place them in the Hongwen Branch of that state. In this way, they could not only reunite with their families, but also get a job with a good salary.

This is simple for Tang Song. "These requirements can be met, but brother, please help me choose from these 67 people... Sixteen smart and steady people come out. I need some things in Beijing."

Chen Xuanli put down the wine bottle and looked at Tang Song deeply.

Tang Song smiled and patted his shoulder, "Don't worry, brother, I will neither let them kill and set fire nor let them commit crimes. It's just a errand."

Chen Xuanli nodded and didn't ask any more questions.

At that time, I just had to drink wine. That meal took a long time. When the moon was on the willows, Tang Song saw Chen Xuanli away and turned around and went to Shangguan Jin's room.

Shangguan Jin and Shangguan Ming, who had just recovered for a long time, were having dinner. The dust on his clothes had not been cleaned. It was obvious that he had just returned.

Tang Song didn't disturb them for dinner, but just sat down. Shangguan Jin took the initiative to eat, "I have followed Wu Sansi to the circle these days. I haven't checked any useful things. It's not a big deal to do it like this, so I discussed it with Brother Ming. King Liang is too big, so he really wants to do anything he really wants to do, but it's not convenient for him to come forward. It must be handed over to the people below. Therefore, from tomorrow, we will focus on Wu Hui. Perhaps we will gain more."

"Is it the butler of the Liang Palace who came last time?"

Shangguan Jin nodded, and Tang Song stopped asking about the details, but just talked about the 16 retired veterans of 10,000 cavalry. "These people are just helping the two brothers and running errands. They can't tell them the specific reasons yet. If they can, they still have the same words. If they can, they can't tell anything. In short, safety is the first priority."

"Don't worry, we'll pay attention"

After finishing the matter in a few words, Tang Song did not disturb the two of them for dinner and returned to the room to rest.

The next morning, Tang Song stood up and went to the yamen, but this time he transferred to a small courtyard in the innermost part of the Shangshu Province.

The Shangshu Province has a large local area and a good location. Lu Yuanfang is one of the direct officials of the yamen, so he found a small courtyard hidden deepest here as the office space for the drafting team for the new examination standards.

On this morning, Tang Song first went to the original Shangshu City Office to meet with his subordinates to explain. He also chose the chief officer Wang Feng and the other three to take them away. Then he went to invite the two immediate bosses Liu and Wei Yuanwailang to explain. Liu still didn't see him, and the Minister Wei Bo was still very enthusiastic, and smiled and patted his shoulder and said, "You are still in the Shangshu City Office, and you are all in the same courtyard. You should go see you when you have time."

After Tang Song thanked him, he went to the new office with Wang Feng and his three-messy expressions, and then cleaned and arranged the documents to the Ministry of Personnel to receive information. After nearly a morning of busyness, he barely settled down.

When the scattered yamen approached, Yao Chong, the largest among the three men in the grade and the highest rank, held the first meeting after the gathering of personnel as the actual person in charge of this place.

This meeting was just a mutual introduction and division of labor for all personnel, and also to explain the task. It was originally a very simple thing, but it was disturbed by the students halfway through.

What disturbed the meeting was a noise outside. A clever official went out to ask questions and came in and looked at Tang Song in embarrassment before explaining it.

This is another sequelae of the last list. After Lu Yuanfang read the list, the group of officials who came to make trouble a few days ago but were in a mess were unwilling to accept it, so they found more frustrated people gathered to the Ministry of Personnel to ask for explanation. Somehow, they found this place again and said that Tang Song and they would go to the Ministry of Personnel and the Political Affairs Hall.

After understanding the whole story, everyone in the room looked at Tang Song. Tang Song stood up and smiled apologetically at Yao Chong, Song Jing and everyone. Then he wanted to push the door out.

"Sit down, I'll go." Yao Chong called Tang Song. When he spoke, he had already stood up. Seeing this scene, the officials in the room felt a little excited. There were so many officials outside making noise. This was obviously a troublesome thing. When encountering such a thing, Yao Chong, as the person in charge, not only did not hide, but instead stood up. His responsibility invisibly enhanced the cohesion of this new group and strengthened his leadership position.

After all, no matter who you are in the officialdom, I hope to meet a responsible and courageous boss. Working with such a boss will make you feel excited!

Seeing Yao Chong walking directly to the door, Tang Song didn't argue with him anymore. According to his words, he sat down quietly.

After Yao Chong went out, the noise outside first became smaller, but then it gradually became louder. Just as Tang Song was already pushing the door open and was about to go out, a new sound suddenly came from outside.

The sound suddenly disappeared. The cognitive official in the room immediately shouted excitedly, "It's Lu Xiang, Lu Xiang is here."

Although they are all in the imperial city, the ministers of the Political Affairs Hall are not that easy to meet for ordinary officials, not to mention that this is the most prestigious minister in the Political Affairs Hall since Di Renjie went to the prime minister. The order in the house was a little messy. The officials squeezed to the door in front of the window and looked out.

Neither Song Jing nor Tang Song stopped this.

Because the distance is not too far, Lu Yuanfang's voice can be heard clearly, "Tang Song is only a matter of seventh-rank Shangshu. Many people like Bill have low ranks. Can he be the master of such a big thing? How can you let him be the master? All this comes from the instructor of the servant. What he did was just a clerk who copied the list. As the imperial court officials, he believed rumors. It's ridiculous. Just by catching the wind and shadow, the servant and the Ministry of Personnel cannot take you."

At this point, Lu Yuanfang, who was not angry, no longer said anything to these people, and directly pointed out Yao Chong's name, "Yuanzhi, please write down all the people you arrived today, Humph, I will talk to you later."

Whether it was reputation or official position, Lu Yuanfang suppressed these officials who were making trouble. He said these words from his husband, the person in charge of the selection. The officials were shocked and covered their sleeves to scatter birds and beasts. They really came quickly and dispersed faster.

Lu Yuanfang clearly wanted to protect him and took all his resentment on him. Tang Song really didn't know what to say about this.

After bombing the officials away, Lu Yuanfang went straight to the room and didn't say anything to Tang Song alone. He just gave the officials a kind and kind word to encourage them.

The officials who were drawn from all over the place saw that their newly formed organization could make the most famous blind date in the Political Affairs Hall to give a speech. The crowd was excited. Wang Feng, who was still uneasy when he came, even gave Tang Song a gratitude glance, and felt that he had a dry head and a promising future in this place.

In response to this, Yao Chong, Song Jing and Tang Song were both sad and sad.

After meeting with everyone, Lu Yuanfang left after saying encouragement, and then it was time to scatter the yamen.

Because Tang Song was really unacceptable to the warm rice that he could eat in the yamen, he thought of going outside the imperial city to find a tavern for lunch. Unexpectedly, as soon as he walked to the yamen of the Secretariat, he ran into a small official in green, saying that Mr. Li Zhaode wanted to see him.

Li Zhaode is now fighting Wu Chengsi, why do you see me? To be honest, Tang Song didn't want to see Li Zhaode at this sensitive moment, but since he found himself, he didn't have any room for rejection.

Along the way, he speculated that he had arrived at Li Zhaode's office in the Political Affairs Hall. Unexpectedly, what this Mr. Li wanted to say had nothing to do with his speculation.

After the guided official withdrew for a while, Li Zhaode deliberately lowered his voice and asked, "Where is Yunlu now?"

Upon hearing this, Tang Song was stunned at first, and then he realized that Li Zhaode asked about Shui Jing, and Yun Lu was the name of Shui Jing.

"It's time to calculate the itinerary, it's still in Gyeonggi-do"

Li Zhaode looked at Tang Song and said in a serious tone: "No matter what method you use, please contact Yun Lu as soon as possible and ask the six escorts you arranged to send her to Xiangzhou safely. In addition, this is a letter to Fang Gongnan, a different coach in Xiangzhou, and they will also be sent together."

Tang Song took the letter and waited for a while. Seeing this, Li Zhaode waved his hand, "Go, do this quickly, be sure to ensure Yunlu's safety."

Tang Song came out in a daze, and after he guessed it, he really couldn't have thought that Li Zhaode had just come to him for this.

Li Zhaode has been very busy recently and is very anxious. No matter how much he cares about Zhang Jianzhi's granddaughter, wouldn't it be enough to find someone to pass on a message? Why did he personally see him explain such a small matter that is real to the prime minister, and his tone is so serious?

In addition, how did Li Zhaode know that there were six people who sent him to escort Crystal? It stumped him to keep paying attention to Crystal quietly? No matter how good the personal relationship between Li Zhaode and Zhang Jianzhi is, this kind of attention seems too much. Zhang Jianzhi has many descendants, but how can he still be like this?

In short, Li Zhaode's attention and concern for crystal has completely exceeded the normal scope.

The more you think about this, the more you become, the more you have something to do, but Tang Song had no clue about the strangeness.

From the real idea of ​​Wu Sansi and Wu Chengsi's merger, to Li Zhaode's unusual attention to the safety of crystals, as the decisive battle between the Li Party and the Wu Party kicked off, one mystery after another suddenly came, making Tang Song feel like he was walking into a fog.
