Xiangzhou.
On this day, Wei Shuyu was tinkering with coal.
Dogleg No. 3 sent another letter from Cui Shenji.
"Qiqi, please read what is written in the letter." Wei Shuyu's hands were dark and it was not convenient to receive it.
"Okay."
Wu Qiqi took it happily.
Wei Shuyu does not shy away from himself, which is the greatest trust!
After unfolding it and looking at it, he said: "Shenji said that the court had a fierce quarrel over the affairs of the Ministry of Commerce, and he almost became the leader of the Ministry of Commerce."
Hearing this, Wei Shuyu put down his work.
I walked to the basin and washed my hands.
"Who is competing?" Wei Shuyu asked.
"King of Shu, King of Wei, King of Yan, Chongyi, Shenji, Cheng Hualiang..." Wu Qiqi read according to what was written on the paper.
He had been listening well before, but when he heard Cheng Hualiang, the corner of Wei Shuyu's eyes couldn't help but twitch.
No more running.
Cheng Yaojin must have come out to stir up trouble again.
"Who will be in charge in the end?" Wei Shuyu asked.
"There was no consensus on the outcome."
Wu Qiqi pouted: "Wei Shuyu, let's go back to Chang'an."
"As long as you return to Chang'an, the Ministry of Commerce will definitely still be yours."
In response, Wei Shuyu shook his head.
"What's so good about being an official?"
"I wake up earlier than a chicken every day, go to bed later than a dog, and risk losing my head if I'm not careful..."
cut.
Wu Qiqi showed contempt.
"Have you told Uncle Wei this?"
"..."
Wei Shuyu was speechless.
If Old Wei heard these words, he would definitely chase him ten streets with a cane.
"Wei Shuyu, you said you have been dismissed from office, why do you still care about the affairs of the court?" Wu Qiqi suddenly asked with a smile.
"Isn't this a letter from Xiao Jiji?" Wei Shuyu replied casually.
"You haven't told the truth yet."
Wu Qiqi put his hands on his hips and said angrily: "With Cui Shenji's character, if you said he wrote you a letter telling you who he beat up today and what new ways he had researched to punish people, I believe it."
"How could he talk to you about court affairs?"
"And if he is so afraid of His Majesty and Cheng Yaojin, how could he take the initiative to go to Tai Chi Hall?"
Wei Shuyu was stunned.
"Then tell me, what am I going to do?"
Hearing this, Wu Qiqi began to think.
Walking around the yard holding my chin...
"You're not dismissing office because you want to attract people behind the scenes to fight for it, are you?"
After a long time, Wu Qiqi suddenly asked in shock.
Without waiting for Wei Shuyu's reply, Wu Qiqi shook his head again and said to himself...
"That's not right either."
"You don't know who is behind the scenes, how can you be sure that the other party will come to fight for it? Unless..."
As he spoke, Wu Qiqi suddenly raised the decibel level: "Unless you already know who is behind the scenes!"
"Just a guess."
Wei Shuyu smiled: "Do you want to know?"
"In no mood!"
Wu Qiqi said angrily: "I want to guess by myself..."
"..."
This damn competitiveness.
Forget it, it’s up to you.
"Qiqi, there is nothing to do in Xiangzhou these two days."
Wei Shuyu changed the subject and said, "I see that Xiangzhou is not far from Jingzhou, why don't I take you home first?"
ah?
Wu Qiqi was unhappy: "You hate me?"
"..."
Wei Shuyu was speechless.
What kind of brain circuit is this?
"You were going home."
"My father is still in Chang'an."
"Then you don't want your mother?"
"this……"
Wu Qiqi rolled his eyes: "How about I take my mother to Chang'an?"
You are such a clever little kid.
As soon as this idea came to his mind, Wu Qiqi couldn't hold it any longer.
In the afternoon, we purchased some local specialties.
The next day the two of them were on the way to Jingzhou.
On the carriage.
Wei Shuyu's butt hurt from the blow.
A carriage without shock absorbers and ancient roads would be like riding a bouncy carriage.
But Wu Qiqi refused to let him ride a horse, saying that riding a carriage alone was boring.
"I thought of it!"
Wu Qiqi suddenly shouted with joy, then grabbed Wei Shuyu's arm and shook it hard.
"What did you think of?" Wei Shuyusheng replied helplessly.
"Is the person behind the scenes... related to the King of Shu?"
"Why do you say that?"
"because……"
Wu Qiqi was startled, opened the car curtain and glanced at the groom.
After confirming that the other party was driving the car seriously, he approached Wei Shuyu and whispered...
"Because when the people behind the scenes were doing things, it was when Li Ke was in Chang'an."
"And...it's all just when Li Ke is about to leave Chang'an!"
Um?
Wei Shuyu showed a smile.
He is truly a master of analysis.
This mind is spinning so fast.
"go on……"
Wei Shuyu also came and listened with interest.
"The first thing is that Princess Changle was attacked!"
"The purpose of Ling Jing's attack on Princess Changle was to create panic. Once the lives of the prince and princess are threatened, Li Ke does not need to go to his post."
"It's just that the people behind the scenes didn't expect that they would be destroyed by you, and they also found Ling Jing and killed him."
"After the crisis is resolved, Li Ke must take up his post."
Wei Shuyu nodded.
Indicate the other person to continue.
"Second item, Songtsen Gampo fight!"
"Songtsen Gampo's ability to challenge the entire Tang Dynasty's younger generation must have something to do with the people behind the scenes."
"The purpose is to compete in the way of the emperor in the Tai Chi Palace."
"If Li Ke wins, he can take the opportunity to stay in Chang'an!"
Wei Shuyu nodded.
What is needed to win the heir is merit, merit that makes the ministers convinced and willing to follow.
"Next, attack and kill the Supreme Emperor."
"Maybe it's better than nothing. Just when Liu Shuyi rebelled, the people behind the scenes helped."
"From what happened to Prince Yin, it is not difficult to see that the Supreme Emperor also has a character that values the elders rather than the young."
Wei Shuyu nodded.
Never mind that Li Yuan has lost power, unless he is placed under house arrest like Li Shimin.
Otherwise, Li Yuan has the absolute right to speak on the establishment of the direct line!
"When Li Ke left, basically nothing major happened."
"Until Li Ke returns to Chang'an..."
"The Sirius incident was launched to drive you away so that Li Ke could seize the position of head of the Commercial Department!"
"In this way, Li Ke can stay in Chang'an openly!"
Wei Shuyu nodded.
This is easy to understand.
"What happened to Li Chengyi was actually a coincidence."
"Chen Shuozhen accidentally discovered something when he was looking for a way to survive in order to protect himself."
"Uncle Wei will not support changing the crown prince."
"So Uncle Wei must die!"
Wei Shuyu nodded.
Lao Wei's character is well known, and it is impossible to support changing the crown prince.
"Then, the matter of Shenji..."
"The matter of the Divine Foundation is likely to be related to the Eastern Turks. I don't know what the other party will do at the moment."
Wu Qiqi frowned, slightly worried.
"how about you?"
Wei Shuyu asked suddenly with a smile.
"I……"
"I do not know."
Wu Qiqi lowered her head shyly: "Maybe she wants to use me as Mrs. Wei to threaten you and ask you to hand over the Ministry of Commerce..."
As he said that, Wu Qiqi suddenly raised his head: "Wei Shuyu, will you save me?"
"Didn't I save you?" Wei Shuyu asked speechlessly.
"I mean, am I more important or is the Ministry of Commerce more important?"
"..."
Wei Shuyu suddenly remembered a joke.
My wife and mother fell into the river, who to save first?
"Didn't I give up my official position in the Ministry of Commerce?" Wei Shuyu shrugged.
Um?
Wu Qiqi was stunned.
Wei Shuyu abandoned his official position obviously to find out who was behind the scenes...
This is purposeful.
Wu Qiqi pouted, not satisfied with this answer!
"You didn't mention the issue of military rations." Wei Shuyu changed the subject.
Military rations?
Wu Qiqi's eyebrows were furrowed.
After thinking for a while, he replied...
"The military rations should be related to the Supreme Emperor's old ministry!"
"When the Supreme Emperor's old subordinate Si Wuzhao came to Beijing, it was just to transfer that batch of military rations!"
"But who knows, because of your intrusion..."
"All the Emperor's old staff were brought back to the mansion by Xiao Yu and put under custody."
"This makes it impossible for the other party to connect."
"After the incident, all the old members of the Supreme Emperor were driven back to their fiefdoms."
Wei Shuyu nodded.
This is the most likely explanation.
"So the person behind the scenes is..."
boom.
The carriage hit a rock.
Wu Qiqi fell into Wei Shuyu's arms.
Oh.
Wu Qiqi immediately pushed Wei Shuyu away, his face as red as a ripe apple.
But she soon regretted it.
Why did I push Wei Shuyu away?
Wouldn't it be nice to hold her for a little longer?
Wu Qiqi secretly regretted that he had lost an opportunity.
"This road is really bad."
Wei Shuyu opened the car curtain and looked at the road. Not only was it muddy, it was also full of potholes.
When it rains, it’s impossible to travel.
"It seems it's time to get the money back." Wei Shuyu touched his chin.
"what money?"
"Your Majesty's money."
"Wei Shuyu, are you plotting against His Majesty?"
"This is not called calculation... this is called taking from the people and using it for the people!"
