Chapter 274: Thoughts of the King of Shu
Second relative, Your Majesty asked when he first appointed His Highness Dawu to participate in the training. Liang obviously wanted to share in his father's contribution. He is the Tai, and he has nothing to say when he comes to participate in the peace talks. Besides, His Highness does not need it.
What credit? But this time His Majesty issued an order to allow His Royal Highness the King of Shu to participate in the peace talks. Isn't this an obvious attempt to share the credit for his father? In the Dou Mansion, Dou Kuan's face was full of complaints and unwillingness.
On the side, Huanyi's face was solemn, and he was holding an imperial edict in his hand. It was the edict that Lu Zhaoci had just issued personally, ordering King Lu Ke of Shu to participate in the peace talks.
"What a shame. Your Majesty's move is naturally His Majesty's intention. How can we ministers be able to discuss it? Although Huan Kuan felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, he still argued. Even if you don't agree with the Emperor's imperial edict, you have to agree.
.What's more, as the peace talks progressed, Huanyi spent more and more time in the three provinces and six departments of the court. From the eyes of many officials around him, he could feel a trace of jealousy. He was originally a businessman, and towards
I understand better than anyone else the principle that a big tree attracts the wind. When I see this appearance, I immediately know what is going on. Sometimes, it is not a good thing to make too much credit!
"General, since the victory in the battle of Shengzhou has returned to the court, do you know what the general will do next?" Huanyi looked at his son, sighed deeply, and asked.
"The general has a foot disease, isn't he recuperating at home?" Shikuan said in confusion.
"That was to avoid suspicion. Huanyi shook his head and said: "These days, when my father was in contact with his colleagues in the court, he understood this truth deeply. Sometimes, the credit is too great, and it is not a good thing.
Things will arouse the jealousy of others. My father has heard that your majesty often receives tips from people about General Li Jing's rebellion. Fortunately, your majesty is wise and powerful and has a deep friendship with the general. I am afraid that he has ordered some officials to carry out the investigation.
Investigation. The general is also very knowledgeable and knows how to protect himself. Therefore, after every war, he is idle at home, serving some flowers and flowers, and does not interfere with the affairs of the court and the army. In this way, he is favored by His Majesty.
For this reason, he was granted the title of king.
Now, although His Majesty allows the two Highnesses to participate in the peace talks, he is sharing some of the credit for his father, but on the other hand, he is also protecting his father! I don’t think my father is a businessman, but he is not from a noble family, and he is not a Jinshi. How can he make such great achievements?
This kind of thing is already very remarkable. If he takes all the credit, I am afraid that the matter will not be over yet, and he will be reported to His Majesty by the imperial officials. With His Highness Tai and His Highness the King of Shu, although those people are very
It’s jealousy, but there’s nothing you can do about it.”
"Humph, what can a businessman do?" After hearing Dou Yi's words, Huan Kuan felt a little bit less unwilling to accept it, but he still felt a trace of resentment. After all, credit is a good thing, and everyone can
I want it. Now a great achievement is before my eyes, but I can’t keep it to myself. It would be very depressing for anyone.
"Haha, it is also beneficial to have two His Highnesses involved. At least the ministers in Yan's court have nothing to say. Huanyi said with a smile: "Humph, those ministers in the court and those aristocratic families in Chang'an City
In order to enjoy this credit alone, I have long been secretly pulling the strings on your father and me. Huh. Duo. In the country of my father, last time Wei Ting and others proposed a romantic affair. Now we have King Taihe and Shu on our side.
, let’s see what other tricks they have against me.”
"Yes, I have heard about it too. Xiao Huankuan also nodded and said: "I heard that the shopkeeper of the Thirteenth Alliance had had contact with the Turks. Father, do you think the Wang family has some conspiracy?"
"Behind the Thirteen Couplets is the Wang family of Taiyuan. Wang Jia offended His Majesty because of the incident involving the Li family in the previous dynasty. He was dismissed from his official position. It cannot but be said that he wanted to use this matter to re-establish himself. Huanyi frowned and thought:
"If he really comes forward and convinces Bo Tie to use his country to serve His Majesty, Your Majesty may be able to let him return to the court. Could it be that this is his intention? But is he really sure of this?
"Father, why don't you report this matter to Your Majesty so that His Majesty can handle the matter. From my child's perspective, they created this so-called father's country. It's very difficult for my father." Dou Kuan snorted coldly.
"Hmph, don't talk nonsense without evidence. The Wang family is dead but not dead. Look, the Li family fell in the previous dynasty, and Wang Jia didn't deal with His Majesty. But for such a person, His Majesty still let him stay at home.
But he ignored it. From this, it can be seen that His Majesty is afraid of the aristocratic family, Huanyi's face is solemn. Even if these aristocratic families are declining, the Taiyuan Wang family is an old family, and was once the leader of the Guanlong family.
Small real meaning is just a matter of hands. No matter how rich Dou Yi is, he can't resist it.
"Yes, the boy knew that Dou Kuan took a deep breath. The opponent was powerful and he was not able to deal with it. The most important thing was that he had no evidence.
"Sir, there is someone outside who claims to be the King of Shu and wants to see him." At this time, the concierge and housekeeper interrupted the conversation between the two fathers and reported in a low voice.
"What, who? King of Shu?" Dou Yi stood up from the chair. Even Huan Kuan on one side looked at the concierge and steward opposite in surprise. Unexpectedly, at this time, King of Shu Lu Ke actually came. It really means that Cao Cao has arrived.
Cao Cao has arrived. Gang and his father are still discussing the matter of King Shu's participation in the peace talks. Unexpectedly,
"Let's go out to greet you." Dou Yi came to his senses soon and walked out. Although he was the person in charge of the peace talks, he was just a minor official, while Lu Ke was the king of Shu and the current ruler of Zhenguantian.
Your Majesty, the status of the two sides is very different, so there is no reason not to welcome them.
"Your Majesty, Huanyi, pays homage to His Majesty. His Majesty is a thousand years old." Dou Yi led Huan Kuan and others out of the house, and saw a heroic young man standing next to a carriage. He was wearing a yellow dragon jade at his waist. He was from the royal family.
Obviously he is the famous chivalrous king in Chang'an City, His Royal Highness the King of Shu. Dou Yi did not dare to neglect and quickly bowed down. "Master Dou, no courtesy!" A smile suddenly appeared on Lu Ke's face, and he stepped forward to help Dou Yi.
He stood up and said with a smile: "Xiao Wang has taken the liberty to come here, please forgive me, Lord Yin!" His attitude was indescribably tolerant, so approachable, and showed his royal demeanor, which made Huanyi admire him repeatedly. No wonder the whole
Both the government and the public said that His Highness, the King of Shu, is as good as today, and he can show his extraordinaryness just by virtue of his magnanimity. But they don't know what it means to come here at this time.
"Your Highness has arrived at this humble abode, and it is full of brilliance. How can I say it's presumptuous?" Huanyi's heart moved, and he suppressed the surprise in his heart. A smile suddenly appeared on his face, and he stepped out of the way. He raised his hands and said, "Your Highness, please!"
"My lord, please." Lu Ke cupped his hands towards Dou Yi and said.
How could Dou Yi have the courage to step forward? After repeatedly begging, Lu Kefang stepped forward, Huan Yi followed half a step behind, and everyone entered the real mansion.
"I have long heard from my father that Mr. Dou Yihuang is a famous businessman in Chang'an City. It can be said that he is rich in Chang'an. I didn't expect that his mansion is so simple, which really surprises Xiao Wang!" Lu Ke said on the side
Looking around, he said with a smile.
"I have gained His Majesty's trust. When I entered the officialdom, I didn't dare to neglect myself. I was cautious all the time, for fear of ruining His Majesty's wisdom. Although I had some extra money at home, I didn't dare to act like a villain who succeeds." Huanyi's brows trembled, and his head moved.
He lowered his voice and said quickly.
"Haha, you earned these by yourself, you didn't steal them, why can't you use them?" Lu Ke laughed loudly, pointed at Huanyi and said with a smile: "Huanyi. Huanyi!
You are too cautious. In the Tang Dynasty, Shengtian is now on the throne, and all the ministers in the Xuande Palace are also virtuous people. How can the officials in the court care about your family's money and do harm to your family's wealth?
The Lord of Destiny has come, as long as you concentrate on assisting His Majesty and work hard for the court, can anyone think of you? It’s wrong for you to be so cautious! After all, this is not the previous dynasty."
"What your Highness taught Zhong is, Huanyi knows." Dou Yi said cautiously with a smile on his face.
"What the prince said is very reasonable. Our family is loyal to His Majesty. We rely on our ability to make a living. We are not like those younger brothers from aristocratic families. They never bully the people and do things honestly. All they earn is hard-earned money. Why?
Can't it be used openly?" Dou Kuan beside him said dissatisfiedly.
"Shut up!" Huanyi's expression changed, he turned around and shouted angrily. Huan Kuan's expression changed in fright, but he did not dare to speak.
"This must be your son. Yes, yes.
"Lu Ke looked at Dou Kuan with a look of approval on his face. It was obvious that Dou Kuan's words had hit his mark.
"Your Highness, dogs are stupid by nature, please don't blame me." Huanyi groaned secretly in his heart. How could he not know that the guy in front of him, who was known as the King of Chivalry, might have taken a fancy to his son. Because his son's temperament may have
Very similar to the King of Shu in front of me.
"Haha, don't be nervous. What you said is what Gu wanted to say." Lu Ke laughed loudly, pointed at Dou Kuan and said with a smile: "Unfortunately, Xiao Wang is different from His Highness and has not yet opened a mansion. Otherwise, Xiao Wang
I must let you enter the palace to help the little king. It's a pity, it's a pity." Dou Yi was frightened by these words and his face turned pale, with a faint trace of cold sweat on his forehead. If it had been before, before Changsun Wuji took refuge, he would have given the King of Shu's advice
, he may be very happy, but now that he has taken refuge with Changsun Wuji, how could he dare to have any second thoughts and send his son to the king of Shu. Later, he heard that Lu Ke had not yet opened his mansion, and he couldn't help but feel relieved.
In one breath...
"Quinu is young and energetic, I'm afraid it will bring trouble to His Highness in the future!" Huanyi said cautiously.
"Haha!" Lu Ke glanced at Dou Yi, but saw a hint of worry in Yin Yi's eyes. He laughed immediately, but did not say anything more about this. He was just saying something casually, but it was
Unexpectedly, Huanyi actually refused. He was curious in his heart, but he did not continue to ask. He is known as the King of Chivalry, so he certainly has the demeanor of a prince. How could he be angry for a businessman? It's just that he felt bad, that's for sure.
.
"Sir Yan, my father ordered me to participate in the peace talks. However, I went to Shengzhou a few days ago to worship the people who died in Shengzhou on my father's behalf. I don't know the details of the peace talks. Please tell me in detail first.
It also gave Xiao Wang some confidence." The three of them returned to the hall, and naturally Lu Ke took a seat, but Huan Yi and Huan Kuan's father could only sit on one side to keep company, which made the foster father feel uneasy. However,
Fortunately, Lu Ke did not catch Gang's question, so the two fathers breathed a sigh of relief.
"Returning to Your Highness, in fact, our country has already taken absolute control of the peace talks this time." The reason why the talks have not been concluded yet is that two parties are planning to send the 100,000 captives to the Western Regions to build official roads for transportation.
Food and grass are sent to the Western Regions, so Your Majesty has an imperial edict. The time for the peace talks to be delayed by the ministers can be extended to at least a year or even longer. It has been four months now. Secondly, it is the country of the father. At that time, there were ministers in the court
, believed that our country must interact with the Turks on the basis of fatherly relations, but Bo Tie disagreed. As for other compensations, etc., some did not meet His Majesty's requirements, so the peace talks have been delayed, Huanyi did not dare to neglect,
He quickly told some of the circumstances of the peace talks. Although he thought that Lu Ke's move was just for show, and the imperial edict only allowed the two highnesses to participate in the peace talks, and it was just with a pair of ears, but in the end Huan
Yi Dan had just rejected Lu Ke. At this time, if he refused again, I am afraid that the knight king would also be unhappy. So he did not dare to neglect and hurriedly told the whole story about the peace talks. Then, Fang Xiao looked carefully
With Lu Ke.
"This Xiao Bo Tie is very tough! Hum, you are still so arrogant after losing the battle. You are really bullying me. I have no one in the Tang Dynasty." Lu Ke said with a smile. But Huan Yi in front of him changed his face after hearing this, and laughed.
There was a hint of murderous intent in the sound. After all, she was the Queen of the Emperor. Even her laughter was filled with a hint of domineering. This tough posture is not something that anyone can possess. At least these words, Dou Yi, the Chang'an City
The rich man did not dare to say it. The two fathers looked at each other with surprise in their eyes.
"Your Highness, I think that the other party's delay will be beneficial to the implementation of His Majesty's plan. If he is forced to recognize his father's country, then the 100,000 captives will be ransomed by the other party, which will be detrimental to the officialdom of the Western Regions.
The impact, the relationship between it is that Your Highness should think twice." Shiyi did not dare to be negligent and quickly expressed his concerns.
"Haha, you can rest assured that Xiao Wang will know how to do this. Lu Ke looked at Huan Yi and said with a smile. As for whether he understands the matter in his heart, Huan Yi cannot know. At this moment, he can only secretly
He was complaining, wishing he could throw away his job right now. It would be better to settle down and become a rich man! The master in front of him is quite difficult to serve. Who knows what he will do in the peace talks in the next few days.
What a means! When the time comes, something goes wrong. The unlucky one is not Lu Ke, he is an emperor, but he is the one who is unlucky. The person who presided over the peace talks, when he thought of this, Dou Yi felt even more painful in his heart.
Lu Ke did not make him suffer for long. After briefly asking a few questions about the peace negotiation procedures, he left.
Dou Yifu and his two brothers sent Lu Ke out again and returned to the hall.
"Father, they all say that His Royal Highness the King of Shu looks exactly like today. He is extremely intelligent. He is really extraordinary when we see him today." Compared to his father, Lu Kuan's face was full of excitement. He rubbed his hands and said, "I want to
His Highness has also been here before, but he only said a few words on the spot. He didn't ask about the peace talks.
"Duo, what do you know?" Dou Yi Qinheng said: "No matter how wise and powerful he is, he is just a king of Shu. There is a prince above him. Besides, it is impossible for me, the Dou family, to invest in other things."
"Under the emperor's command." "Father, why is this?" Zu Kuan asked in surprise.
"Because I, Mrs. Dou, belong to His Royal Highness the King of Yue." Dou Yi showed a wry smile on his face, sighed deeply and said: "The reason why I can be a doctor in the Ministry of Rites, and the reason why I can preside over the peace talks, is that, of course, your Majesty
appreciation, but the most important thing is the recommendation of Mr. Changsun. Without Mr. Changsun, where would our Dou family be today? Do you think we can still invest in others? Even if we dare to do so, others will not
I must dare to accept it.”
"King of Yue? I didn't expect that His Highness the King of Yue was also involved in the fight for the right to inherit the throne?" Dou Kuan's face changed slightly. The matter of kings fighting for the right to inherit the rightful son had been spread throughout Chang'an a long time ago. Although with the development of the Tang Dynasty,
As the war with the Turks continued, the voice of claiming heirs became much quieter. However, now that the outcome of the Tang Dynasty and the Turks has been decided, the Tang Dynasty has gained the absolute upper hand, and the emperors have gradually grown up. This kind of thing has happened again.
It spread widely in the Chang'an market. However, what Dou Kuan did not expect was that the young King of Yue would also become one of the people fighting for the throne.
"His Royal Highness the King of Yue's mother is your Majesty's favorite eldest grandson. His uncle is the eldest grandson of the Xuande Palace, who is deeply trusted by your majesty. In addition, the eldest grandson is very powerful and his resourcefulness is not inferior to mine. With such good conditions,
Why don't you participate in seizing the direct descendants?" Huan Kuan shook his head and said: "On the contrary, this King of Shu is known as the King of Chivalry and has an excellent reputation among the people, but I am not optimistic about this person. If he comes into contact with this person, the Huan family will be in trouble in the future.
There must be no peace."
"Does my father think that the King of Yue can win?" Dou Kuan lowered his head and thought deeply: "These eggs cannot be put in the same basket. What if they break?"
"This kind of strategy can't be shown off in front of Lord Changsun." Dou Yi shook his head and said, "If my Dou family was from a noble family, it would be fine, but unfortunately, we are not from a noble family. It would be too obvious to do this.
Chapter completed!
