Looking at Zhao Gang's hand pressing on his chest, Zhao Heng immediately rolled his eyes.
Especially looking at Zhao Gang's arrogant look.
Zhao Heng's face showed an extremely obvious look of disdain.
It makes me, Zhao Heng, seem to be interested in you.
"If you have something to say, you have to fart."
Zhao Gang didn't give him a good look, so Zhao Heng naturally didn't bother to give him a good look. He waved his sleeves, dusted himself off, passed Zhao Gang, and walked directly into Prince Jin's Mansion.
"Hey, are you still angry?"
Seeing Zhao Heng like this, Zhao Gang grinned, followed quickly, looked at Zhao Heng with a smile, raised his eyebrows and said: "Hey, if I guess correctly, someone went to see the old man behind my back. Nine?
Look at this, are you feeling deflated? "
"Bian Gu."
Zhao Heng shouted behind him.
"exist!"
Bian Gu immediately straightened his back and shouted.
"Where is the dog barking at night? Bring someone and give the dog to the prince and I will drive it out."
"OK?"
Bian Gu subconsciously agreed, but as soon as he finished speaking, he froze again and stayed where he was, neither standing nor sitting.
Dog barking in the middle of the night?
Where did the dog in Prince Jin's Mansion come from?
Doesn't this refer to His Highness the King of Qin...
Zhao Gang: "..."
Seeing Bian Gu's embarrassed look, Zhao Gang waved his hand.
He hugged Zhao Heng's neck, smiled and leaned into Zhao Heng's ear, saying with a reproachful look on his face: "Look at how stingy you are, second brother, didn't I just say something casually, and I got so angry?" ? You see, you have also gone to find that old nine now,
The result is that he refuses to eat anything!
What do you think is causing you this? "
As he spoke, he pointed at Zhao Heng and then at himself, "You said it's just a fight between us brothers. Why bother dragging others along with you? There's no need."
Zhao Heng rolled his eyes, not even bothering to listen to Zhao Gang's beep.
"Okay, second brother, if you have anything to say, just say it. Don't talk in circles here. I have no time to talk to you."
Zhao Heng rolled his eyes, and then said sarcastically: "Although I didn't win over Lao Jiu this time, at least I didn't make a grudge. I can say hello whenever I need it in the future. I don't want to miss someone, and I've already completely broken up with him."
"Oh, it's a way to provoke generals, right?"
Zhao Gang snorted, and then said with disdain: "It's useless! He's just a housekeeper. In the final analysis, he's just a slave. I don't care."
But the next moment, he looked at Zhao Heng with a gloomy face and said: "What I care about is that you and I may be picked off."
"Peach picking? What do you mean?"
Zhao Heng narrowed his eyes.
He glanced around.
Bian Gu immediately led the people out with understanding and closed the door.
Seeing this, Zhao Gang sat directly opposite Zhao Heng and said: "The old man has already decided on the candidates for this year's disaster relief."
"What does this have to do with you and me?"
Zhao Heng rolled his eyes.
He had heard about this, but basically didn't pay much attention to it. When the rainy season came, the court would prepare some silver coins for disaster relief basically every year.
But these are court affairs.
They, the vassal kings, are not qualified to intervene.
"It didn't matter in the past, but it does matter this year."
Zhao Gang seemed to have anticipated Zhao Heng's thoughts, and said with a smile.
"Don't beat around the bush, just say it quickly if you have something to say."
Zhao Heng said impatiently.
"Hey, look at your bad temper."
Zhao Gang didn't care. He laughed and cursed, but his eyes became serious and said: "In the past, the court's disaster relief or disaster relief preparations were carried out by officials from the Ministry of Works, and officials from the Ministry of Households coordinated to allocate disaster funds. In this way, although It can ensure the dispatch of disaster relief funds, but something will inevitably happen."
Zhao Heng naturally understood what Zhao Gang said.
Isn't it just a matter of greed.
These days, if the imperial court allocates 10,000 taels and spends 1,000 taels on disaster relief, it is already considered a blessing.
Then Zhao Gang continued to say: "So the old man changed the method this year and let people from our royal family come forward, and these people are naturally you, me, and Lao Jiu.
In order to avoid suspicion, my uncle recommended you, and Zhou Shangshu recommended me. In the end, no matter whether the old man chooses you or me, this disaster relief matter will be under the control of the Ye family and the Qian family.
At that time, even if there is another case of corruption, killing two petty officials will be enough. "
Speaking of this, Zhao Gang looked unconcerned.
The same is true for Zhao Heng.
After all, this is how it works, everyone knows it, they just don’t criticize it.
Then Zhao Gang continued: "But this year, the old man didn't choose you or me. Instead, he planned to let Lao Jiu come forward."
"Let Zhao Ding come forward?"
Hearing Zhao Gang's words, Zhao Heng's brows wrinkled for a moment.
Disaster relief is no small matter. Although anyone can go there, not everyone can be shaken.
After all, the king of hell is easy to deal with, but the devil is difficult to deal with.
Without any means or support from the DPRK and China, local officials may cooperate on the surface, but they will still stumble you secretly.
It will only be counterproductive then.
"That's right, it's Lao Jiu."
Zhao Gang nodded.
"What is the old man thinking? He asked Lao Jiu to come forward. Isn't he afraid that Lao Jiu will mess up the matter? Or is the old man really just trying to be wary of us two brothers and has started to do whatever it takes?"
Zhao Heng looked at Zhao Gang with a groan.
When he first came to the capital, it was Zhao Chongyuan who played a trick on him.
Although when he arrived in the capital, he was a little closer to the imperial power, but he also lost the real power of the feudal officials.
"I don't know if he is wary of us two brothers, but I'm afraid it's not as simple as being wary of us two brothers."
Zhao Gang looked at Zhao Heng meaningfully.
"What do you mean?"
Zhao Heng asked.
"The old man suggested Lao Jiu. Yang Fu didn't say anything, but he didn't refuse either."
"Isn't that old fox Yang Fu always like this?"
Zhao Heng said subconsciously.
Yang Fu was a veteran of the three dynasties of the Daqian Dynasty and had single-handedly dominated the cabinet of the Daqian Dynasty for many years. Although he was usually inconspicuous, no one could underestimate the power of the chief minister of the Daqian Dynasty.
Even his grandfather Lu Guogong Qian Song had to respect the chief minister of three dynasties.
"But if it's just that, I don't care, but before my old man summoned you and me back, the old man summoned the Duke of Wei, Xu Tiande, into the palace.
Although I don’t know what was discussed specifically.
But I have also heard that there seems to be a marriage with the Xu family, and you and I both have a concubine, and the other brothers have also started families. What do you think the marriage is for now?
And for whom to marry? "
Zhao Gang looked at Zhao Heng with a half-smile.
After listening to Zhao Gang's words, Zhao Heng's face completely darkened at the end.
I sat on a stool and thought for a long time.
After a long while, he raised his head faintly and glanced at Zhao Gang, "What are you going to do?"
Although he looked down upon Zhao Ding, he felt that Zhao Ding posed no threat to him.
But if Zhao Ding has the support of Wei Guogong Xu Tiande.
That's a little different.
"Of course, before the old man announced the matter in front of the courtiers, we two came forward to take over the matter."
Zhao Gang narrowed his eyes and said.
"The old man won't agree."
Zhao Heng shook his head.
Although his father, Zhao Chongyuan, had always had a gentle personality, he was also an emperor who could listen to advice.
But this does not mean that his father Zhao Chongyuan is an emperor without independent opinions.
As soon as Zhao Chongyuan, the former leader, convened the three cabinet members to discuss the matter, the two brothers came forward.
This is equivalent to putting the matter of taking sides on the table.
With Zhao Chongyuan's character, he would not allow it.
It would be the same for any emperor.
What Zhao Heng can think of, Zhao Gang naturally understands in his heart.
He stood up, patted Zhao Heng on the shoulder, and said meaningfully, "Lao Wu, you said that we have endured it for so long, and finally the boss was tortured to death by us, and that little bastard Qingzhan didn't live up to his expectations. Seeing that This peach will one day fall on your and my heads, but we can’t let anyone pick the peach at this juncture.”
"It's like you and I can make the old man change his mind with just a few beeps here."
Zhao Heng rolled his eyes.
Zhao Gang: "..."
Zhao Heng continued: "Old man, I don't need you or me. I definitely want to use this to weaken the power of the Qian family and the Ye family, and put some of his own people there. But in the heart of the old man, you and I are both being ignored. For those who have been branded by the Qian family and the Ye family, we are now openly opposing the old man.
Are you really an old man who dare not touch us?
Don't forget how we came to the capital. "
The reason why Zhao Chongyuan transferred the two of them from Yizhou and Qingzhou to the capital was to prevent the two brothers from constraining the court affairs in Yizhou and Qingzhou.
If this thing pops up again now.
Then Zhao Chongyuan might really not be able to tolerate them anymore.
"What if I have something against Lao Jiu?"
As soon as these words came out, Zhao Heng's eyes suddenly became strange.
