"not so good!"
Mu Chen said with a dark face: "When His Majesty left, he did not let the prince supervise the country."
"If we do this, aren't we putting the prince on the fire to roast him?"
"Your Majesty is the only prince, and the throne will be passed to him sooner or later. Let's just wait slowly. There is no need to think too hard."
"Where are the others?"
Someone else said: "If we don't move, what if someone else gets there first?"
"hehe."
Mu Chen said disdainfully: "With the prince here, who can get there first?"
"Stop speculating."
"Take good care of the prince. As long as nothing happens to him, we will be in an invincible position."
"yes."
Others could only nod.
After all, Mu Chen is the Crown Prince and Tutor, holds a high position and is the leader among them.
Of course you have to obey his orders.
The next things to discuss are nothing more than how to teach the prince and speculation about His Majesty's suppression of bandits.
Similarly, the three great bachelors are also discussing.
"what's up?"
The first person to lose his temper was Su Wencheng, a bachelor of the cabinet, who was anxiously running around in the political hall.
"Your Majesty, what do you mean?"
"They talked about suppressing bandits, but they actually went out in person, and only gave them three days. Then they left with a pat on the back, but they didn't say who would supervise the country. What should we do?"
"Who will handle the political affairs of the Dawei Dynasty?"
"Even if the three of us don't discuss it and make a decision, it might be difficult to satisfy His Majesty, right?"
"Why."
Zhuge Yuanlang also echoed: "Who says it's not the case?"
"But we are the link between His Majesty and the courtiers. The following documents will be submitted to the Political Hall, and the three of us will have a look at them before deciding whether to submit them to His Majesty."
"Now that His Majesty is away, if we make a decision privately, wouldn't it be overstepping our bounds?"
"If you don't work, how many memorials will you accumulate?"
"When His Majesty comes back, why don't you punish us for not doing anything?"
"I'm so worried."
"Isn't this leaving us with a mess?"
"Shang Shuling, you usually have the most clever ideas. Tell me, what should we do now?"
"What do you do on weekdays? What do you still have to do now?"
Xu Chundao.
"ah?"
Both of them were stunned.
"When we encounter problems on weekdays, we can still discuss it with His Majesty. Now that His Majesty is away, who should we discuss it with? We can't make decisions in private?"
"Still discuss with His Majesty."
Xu Chun smiled and said: "Your Majesty is not here, can't we find him?"
"He is far away in Yuzhou, how can I find him?"
Zhuge Yuanlang made a loud sound and said: "Is it possible that we also want to go to Yuzhou?"
"There are bandits everywhere over there. You two can go wherever you like, but I won't go."
"that is."
Su Wencheng followed closely and said: "If we go to a place like that and get accidentally killed by bandits, who should we talk to to reason?"
"Besides, this place is so far away from Yuzhou. By the time we run over, the problem may have escalated to an incredible level."
"Hahaha, you guys don't know how to use your brain when something happens."
Xu Chun shook his head and laughed, "I said to go to Yuzhou to find His Majesty, do we have to go out by ourselves?"
"Can't you send a few followers to carry our documents?"
"So what if it's a long distance?"
"It's an urgent matter of 800 miles, but it can be reached in just over a day."
"Three days round trip is enough."
"With our ability, can't we delay the matter for three days?"
Hearing this, the two people's eyes suddenly lit up.
They all praised, "It's so good."
"Master Xu is still very resourceful."
"..."
With a few words of rainbow fart, the smile on Xu Chun's face was as bright as a chrysanthemum.
But in my heart I was quite disdainful.
You two old men don't practice cultivation. I really don't know why His Majesty asked you to be the cabinet bachelor and the imperial bachelor.
With your IQ, if you are sold, you still have to help me count the money, right?
Of course, disdain is disdain. When it is time to take advantage, Xu Chun will not be soft at all.
And the two of them were equally disdainful.
Xu Chun, Xu Chun, you were so smart all your life, but you were confused for a while.
Can this kind of thing be said directly?
If something happens in the future, will you be able to take responsibility?
The two of us pointed casually and insisted that this was your plan. I'm afraid you won't be able to escape.
Your Majesty's small notebook records everything very clearly.
When you return from victory, the first person you have to deal with is probably you, Xu Chun.
Anyway, they all have their own agendas, and their faces and hearts are at odds with each other.
They are all planning for themselves.
On the other side, people from the six tribes also gathered at the home of Liu Lai, the Minister of Household Affairs.
He was also talking about His Majesty's expedition.
"Liu Shangshu, now that His Majesty is away, should we take action?"
Tao Zeyuan, the Minister of Civil Affairs, was the first to ask.
He even made a gesture of wiping his neck.
"As long as we kill that person and then another person, no one in the entire Dawei Dynasty can stop us from moving forward."
"By the time……"
"shut up!"
Before he could finish his words, Liu Lai shouted loudly.
"Kill for what?"
"We are the six ministers of the current dynasty. We must obey His Majesty's orders wholeheartedly and maintain the stability of Chang'an City. How can we fight and kill and live up to His Majesty's expectations of us?"
Um?
It wasn't just Tao Zeyuan who was stunned.
Even the other four ministers asked me to look at you, wondering why Liu Lai said this.
Follow His Majesty's orders?
If you, Liu Lai, say this, who would believe it?
Think back to the beginning...
Forget it, everyone planned the incident together and everyone had a share. We can't put all the blame on Liu Lai alone.
"Then what are we going to do?"
After a moment of silence, Yuan Litian, the Minister of Justice, asked, "Is this a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity?"
“Once you miss it, it’s hard to get it again.”
"And if the prince grows up, no matter how we plan, it won't be of much use."
"You know we have a plan, what about the others?"
Liu Lai said earnestly: "We know the situation in the court, but others don't know it?"
"I have Queen Hao above."
"The prince's biological mother relies on the Qian family."
"Following him is the Crown Prince Mu Chen, with the support of the Mu family behind him."
"Further down, there are three grand maesters."
"If we are really anxious, they will be the first to be anxious. If we really take action, they will be the first to take action. We will wait and see what happens."
"Liu Shangshu means that we sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight?"
Tao Zeyuan's eyes flashed and he said, "Then we will be the oriole."
"When they fight until both sides suffer, we will take action and reap the benefits."
"Wonderful, really wonderful!"
"Liu Shangshu is worthy of being the Shangshu in charge of the world's money and food. This calculation is really amazing."
"What if no one takes action?"
Yun Chengze, the Minister of War, asked abruptly.
Everyone sighed again.
"Yes, no one takes action, what should we do?"
"Do we have to wait for His Majesty to return safely?"
"If that happens, we will miss the opportunity."
"Hahaha, don't worry, there must be someone who can't bear it first."
Liu Lai stroked his beard and said confidently.
"Why is Liu Shangshu so confident?"
everyone asked.
"I won't tell you yet, so as not to alert others."
Liu Lai shook his head and said, "Just be prepared."
"Assemble the money, food, and manpower in the family to the capital as soon as possible."
"Once those people take action, it may be too late for us to do these things."
Everyone nodded.
The truth was concealed, and no one cared.
After all, the six departments have always been headed by Liu Lai, the Minister of Household Affairs.
Who put him in charge of the world's money and food?
Everyone's salary, greedy money, etc. must pass through his hands.
Without Liu Lai's acquiescence, anyone who took an extra tael of silver would probably be annihilated.
And everyone is a grasshopper tied to a rope.
If any one person has a problem, others may be implicated.
So if Liu Lai wants to cheat them, he is cheating himself.
Everyone also trusts his decision.
Then we will discuss the second matter.
Liu Lai took the lead and took out a letter.
The letter was written by Tongbai of Donghai County.
He told about his methods to deal with Zhao Ping, but all of them were defeated by Zhao Ping.
Price suppression can only be used.
Use the cloth shop to cut prices to defeat Zhao Ping's textile factory, thereby seizing the acacia wine formula in his hands.
I am writing now to hope for my family’s support.
Send some money over.
The other is the second method they thought of.
Assassinate Zhao Ping.
But all the bandits they trained were wiped out, as if they disappeared overnight, and no clues could be found at all.
In desperation, he wanted to ask his family to take action and hire killers from the killer organization to get rid of Zhao Ping to avoid future troubles.
After everyone finished reading the letter, Liu Laicai asked: "Let's talk about it, how should we deal with this matter?"
"Where is Mr. Liu?"
Zhu Zhu, the minister of the Ministry of Industry, asked, "Didn't we send Mr. Liu and Mr. Yun to go?"
"With the two of them here, can't they subdue a mere second-rate guy?"
"What's more, Mr. Liu is the eldest son of Mr. Liu, and he has mastered the methods of making money from Mr. Liu. It should be easy to deal with Zhao Ping, right?"
"Besides, we also sent a large number of guards."
"If that doesn't work, why don't we just let the guards get rid of Zhao Ping secretly?"
"Let's prepare wine and food and wait for Mr. Liu's triumphant return."
"Hahaha, I thought so too."
Liu Lai laughed.
With Liu Yi protecting Liu Wenhao, no matter how powerful Zhao Ping is, he still has to kneel down.
So no worries at all.
But he still asked symbolically, "Where are the others? Is there anything else you want to say?"
Everyone shook their heads.
"In that case, let's discuss this today."
"Everyone goes back to secretly prepare money and manpower, waiting for the opportunity to act. On the surface, they still have to pretend that nothing is wrong. When they should go to court, they should still make noises."
Everyone agreed and took advantage of the night to quietly return to their mansion.
After about a cup of tea, Liu Lai changed into a set of night clothes and quietly left the House of the Secretary of the Ministry of Revenue after confirming that everyone was gone.
