Reincarnation of the powerful minister

"No collection at night...the general banner." Emperor Jing Long put down the lake brush and washed his hands in the clear water basin beside him.

On the desktop, a majestic picture of Rizhao Rivers and Mountains has been constructed, and the mountains, rivers and city walls are beginning to emerge.

Su Yan withdrew his admiring gaze, and said with some embarrassment: "I didn't ask the emperor for instructions, so I made my own decisions."

Xiao Nei waited in the hall to serve tea.The emperor took a cup of Pu'er and signaled to serve Su Yan another cup of pineapple with olives.He pushed open the lid of the cup, blew lightly, and said, "Then tell me what you think. Well said, I won't punish you."

"This Yan Chengxue, I have come into contact with in Shaanxi. He is fierce and narrow-minded, mean and arrogant, and thinks highly of himself. Because of the tragic experience of being slaughtered by the Tartars when he was young, he hates the barbarians, especially the northern desert tribes. .This person has a low vision and a good heart, he is good at trickery, and he has the vicious spirit of 'I would rather let the world bear the people than let the world bear me'."

"In that case, if you kill him, you will kill him, so why give him a chance?" the emperor asked Gui, but there was no doubt in his tone, as if he was taking a school exam.

"Does the emperor know the mandala used by surgeons? It is a good medicine for anesthesia and analgesia, and it is also a poison for causing confusion and convulsions. It depends on how you use it." Su Yan took a sip of tea to moisten his throat and continued, "In When I was in Shaanxi, I had seen the soldiers trained by Yan Chengxue. His orders were like a mountain. Even if the arrow pointed to his own superior, he did not hesitate. Only extreme discipline and obedience can achieve this. He is a civil servant. Even though his name is not right and his words are not right, he can still manipulate soldiers like his arms and fingers, which reminds me of a sentence-soldiers don’t need to think, they just need to obey absolutely.”

The emperor chewed on these words and nodded slightly.

"Although this person has many faults, he still has some loyalty to the country and the king, and he has a deep bond with his good friend Huo Dun, so he is not really a heartless and righteous person. The thorns, thorns, and bad ones are all peeled off, and see if it can still be used."

Su Yan presented a stack of papers full of words to the emperor, "Yesterday in the imperial prison, I saw the book of war written by him. His thinking is strange, his technique is insidious, and he can use everything to win. He is a slanted sword. Ghost talent. I think that this kind of person can't be a general, but he has the demeanor of a poisonous adviser.

"So I deliberately belittled him face to face, arousing him to be full of dissatisfaction, and tried to prove his talent; he also used Horton's life to restrain him, so that he could no longer regard the lives of soldiers as insignificant; finally he was placed in the night. In his position, use Yebushou's swift, maneuverable, sharp, and stealthy nature of the team to sharpen his actual combat experience.

"The minister gave him time and a suitable position to prove his loyalty and ability. If he can pass the test and accumulate military merits, he may not be able to compete for the position of chief officer in the future."

The emperor carefully flipped through the pages while listening, and finally said with emotion: "It's not this book that moved me, but Qinghe. The low-ranking people plan and manage affairs, and the high-ranking ones know and employ people. Qinghe gave me another unexpected surprise. It seems that my expectations of you were not high enough."

Su Yan said in shame, "I don't dare to do it, the emperor praises me so much", thinking to myself, how dare I play tricks?When it comes to knowing and employing people, and even manipulating power and people's hearts, you are the one who understands the three flavors——

There is no better way to attack enemy forces than to divide them.

To control the officials, there is nothing more than to drive them apart to check and balance.

There is nothing better than emphasizing grace and power to conquer people's hearts.

With these three, you are playing at a higher level than anyone else.I am nothing, just stubborn bronze.

Otherwise, why did Emperor Jing Long not mention anything about Shen Qi being alone with Shen Qi for a quarter of an hour while entering the imperial prison?Wasn't it just that he was always apprehensive about the emperor's reaction, worried about the liquidation that would come at any time, so that he would not dare to go one step further in the future?

It's a pity that Su Yan still has a thick skin. Since the emperor pretended to be ignorant, then he would pretend that the other party really didn't know, so he could do whatever he wanted.

He respectfully kowtowed to the emperor for his kindness of impunity, respectfully retired, and before leaving, he even paid a few high-end flattery to the emperor's semi-finished painting.

Lan Xi said beside him: "Master Su seems to be very obedient today. Also, if the emperor favors you so much, can he not be more grateful?"

Emperor Jing Long put the teacup on the table and smiled wryly: "He is angry with me."

"Angry? This... is bold!" Eunuch Lan flicked his fly whisk towards the door of the palace, and held the emperor accountable in a tone of voice, "I'm so proud of being favored. This is it. Why don't the servants beat him and ask him to come back and ask the emperor?" The emperor apologizes?"

The emperor sighed softly and waved his hand, "That's all. He looks cute and smart, but in fact he has a very wild mind and is the most unrestricted. I don't allow him to touch those messy men, and let four imperial guards follow him, named It's for protection, but in fact it's also for supervision and avoidance, how could he not be clear about it. I'm angry with me if I catch him here."

Lan Xi laughed and said: "Su Shaoqing's way of getting angry is quite unique. Your lord, I don't know if I should say something or not."

"What kind of flattery have you thought about again, tell me."

"Although the servant girl is not a smart person, but seeing Su Shaoqing's words and deeds, I feel that he actually admires the emperor very much. He said that the emperor had a headache a while ago. As soon as he entered Beijing, he rushed into the palace non-stop to greet him. Didn't take a step in the door.

"That day he waited anxiously outside the hall, with those eyes, he went straight to the crack of the door like a moth fluttering to a lamp. After listening to the servant girl talking about the emperor's symptoms, he stood there in a daze, lost his mind, and then I beg this servant to find a way to let him enter the palace to serve the sick."

The emperor sneered: "Isn't it just one sentence? Why did you say four sentences?"

Lan Xi lowered her head and apologized: "This servant is too talkative..."

"I love to hear, keep talking."

"Yes! This slave girl should feel that since the crispy crabs soaked in the wine have been placed on the tray, they are actually short of fire. Cover him with a cage cover and steam them over high heat, won't they be cooked? Once they are steamed, they can If you don’t want to eat, you can eat whatever you want?”

The emperor played with the lid of the cup between his fingers, pondered for a while, and said, "I'm afraid that if there is a big fire, the heat will be too fast, and the crab will struggle desperately, even breaking its pincers and claws. It is very tragic. Besides, he, Su Qinghe, is not a crab." , I'm not a crab eater either."

Lan Xi persuaded: "Your servants also know that the emperor is elegant, and they don't bother to take it by force, so they want to be willing. But this kind of thing depends on the person. Some people don't know how to understand, so they have to coax them Open it, he has tasted the sweetness, hey, naturally he is willing. If he doesn't show some toughness, he will never open this trick in his life, and he doesn't even know what it feels like, so why not be reluctant?"

The edge of the cup lid tapped lightly on the table, making a slight but crisp "clang".

The emperor's fingers pressed against the slippery cup lid, his Adam's apple rolled up and down, and he took a sip from the teacup.

Lan Xi has observed words and expressions for more than ten years, and knows that the Sacred Heart is moving, regardless of whether it moves like ripples or waves, it always feels like clouds and rain.Once this heart fire is ignited, it will not be so easy to completely extinguish it.

These few months, the harem was useless, although because of the busy state affairs and the fact that the emperor was not very keen on the matter of the bed, the ability was strong and the interest was mediocre, but he had never been absent for so long.It was so easy for Su Yan to return to Beijing at the end of the year, and due to many concerns, he tried and tried, but refused to make a strong move.

Seeing this, Lan Xi felt anxious, and even tried to repeat the same trick, persuading him to drink and enjoy the incense, and then locked the door of the temple.

Now that Sacred Heart has finally been persuaded, the emperor has been thinking hard for a long time and finally fulfilled his wish, but should he not remember his credit?Besides, Su Yan, this kid didn't know how to praise him before, but now he has to obediently climb onto the dragon bed.When things are done, I will shame him a few words to vent my anger, and then sell more, let the cheap nephew become my party support in the court, it is the best of both worlds.

Eunuch Lan calculated all the benefits he would gain, and felt that no matter how hard he worked on this matter, it was worth it.

Suddenly the emperor asked indifferently: "How are the preparations for the Aoshan Lantern Festival?"

Lan Xi hurriedly calmed down, and replied: "Everything is ready. The Lantern Festival will be in a few days. Will the emperor visit the Meridian Gate as usual this year, and have fun with the people?"

The emperor nodded: "As usual." Then he issued an order: "Let all Beijing officials above the fourth rank come to visit the Lantern Festival, and do not ask for leave if there is no urgent matter."

Lan Xi thought that the Shaoqing of Dali Temple was just the fourth rank, and she was elated, and replied: "This servant must convey the will in place."

Su Yan walked out of the Jingyun Gate, the forbidden gate of the inner palace, and was beating his sore legs to see if there were any officials who happened to be out of the palace or bought a carriage, and could take him for a ride.

Suddenly, I saw a gorgeous carriage coming from the outer court. The vermilion lacquered lid and sky wheel, the exterior of the carriage were nailed and painted with gold and copper dragon head, dragon tail and 钑 flower leaves.

There is only one prince in this capital, and he is the one Su Yan least wants to see.He immediately turned around and ran away against the wall, not even waiting for a ride.

But the vermilion lacquered carriage stopped, and the person inside opened the curtains and shouted, "Su Yan!"

Su Yan pretended not to hear, and quickened his pace.

After turning around the corner and out of the sight of the person in the carriage, he relaxed his heartstrings, stopped to catch his breath, and raised his sleeves to wipe the sweat slightly oozing from his forehead.

A handkerchief was handed to him.

Su Yan took it casually to wipe off his sweat, and said, "Thank you, this—" He looked up to see the other person's appearance, loosened his hand, and the handkerchief fell off.

King Yu reached out to catch the handkerchief before it hit the ground, and handed it over again: "This is yours."

Su Yan was slightly taken aback: the pattern on the handkerchief was a bit familiar, and there was a small "Su" embroidered on the corner, which was written by Xiao Bei.It was indeed his handkerchief, somehow it got into the hands of the other party...

Yu Wang said: "Have you forgotten? Half a year ago in Lingguang Temple, Wei Jun recruited a group of gangsters and attacked you and me as assassins. This king blocked the arrow for you and hurt your hand. You bandaged the wound with This handkerchief."

Su Yan recalled that there was indeed such a thing.

At that time, King Yu was fighting the crowd with one man, and he was very brave. If he hadn't intercepted the mother and child arrows shooting at him with his bare hands, he would not have suffered such serious injuries. He had dozens of stitches inside and outside, and he didn't drink anesthetic.

He showed his favor with old things, Su Yan couldn't keep a straight face, took the handkerchief and put it in his arms, cupped his hands and said: "Thank you, my lord, for your rescue at that time. I still have business to do, so I will leave now." Said. Go around to the right.

King Yu took a step to the left.

Su Yan had no choice but to stop, and went around to the left again.

King Yu moved two steps to the right.

Su Yan was annoyed, and raised his head to stare at him warily: "In broad daylight, the palace is strictly restricted, what does the prince want?"

King Yu said: "Long time no see, I want to see you."

Su Yan: "..."

I just met on the 26th of the twelfth lunar month, and I was very shameless in the downtown area, throwing my son to me like a burden, and it's only been ten days so far, what kind of big-tailed wolf are you pretending to be?

Su Yan: "Let's read the front, and the back, please take your time."

He turned around and strode towards the way he came.

It's a pity that before he took a few steps, there was a blur in front of his eyes, and a purple dragon with cloud shoulders and sleeves stood straight in front of him again.

Su Yan frowned, holding back his anger and asking: "What exactly does the prince want?!"

King Yu was silent for a moment, and said, "I want you to see me too."

Su Yan: "..."

Look at your sister, crazy!

Su Yan was furious from the bottom of his heart, gritted his teeth and glared, and suddenly found that the other person looked haggard, his eyelids were blue, the whites of his eyes were bloodshot, his eye sockets were slightly sunken, and his cheekbones protruded a bit, which damaged his original nine-point appearance. It became six or seven points.

"Are you taking drugs?" Su Yan was mean once in a while, "My family lives in Chaoyang District."
