Chapter 1392 The Qin family is in danger
School City, by the Luoshui River.
A news in the teahouse and restaurant is spreading rapidly. This morning, Xu Jingzong and Li Yifu resigned from the Golden Palace at the same time. Xu Jingzong returned to his hometown begging for bones because he was old, while Li Yifu claimed that he was too ill to resign as an official.
Although the Emperor's Hall did not accept the rhetoric.
But this is just the etiquette face that the prime minister should have.
The students talked excitedly, "Unexpectedly, the grand master really meant what he said. When Huaiying you told us what the grand master said before, we thought it was just an opportunity for him to slow down the army. Unexpectedly, it was really thunderous!" It is." Pei Yan said excitedly.
Wei Yuanzhong was still a bit skeptical, and clenched his fists, "Smiley Worm and Li Mao really know how to resign? Could it be that they deliberately sang together? Wait a month or two, and try it out, and there will be a lot of trouble at that time." The scholars have also left the capital, and the longer the delay, I am afraid that more scholars will listen to the court's rhetoric, and it will be difficult to get together to do things by then."
Among the six gentlemen, Li Jingye is the eldest grandson of Li Ji, the British prince. However, because Li Ji was expelled to Xijing for retirement when the emperor was still in power, the Li family did not have the opportunity to participate in the establishment of the new emperor, so the new dynasty is now in power. The military faction has nothing to do with the British government.
He said, "I also think it's a bit too unbelievable. Who doesn't know that Xu Jingzong and Li Yifu were both picked up by Grand Master Qin? Now that these two people resign directly, he is willing to break his own arm?"
Di Renjie still believed in Qin Lang, especially after contacting him during this period of time, he became more and more convinced that Qin Lang was a high-minded elder of the Zhu Kingdom, "The Grand Master has been saying that he will return to Luzon when the court situation is stable. The teacher doesn't want to stay in Luoyang for a long time, and he doesn't intend to control the government, otherwise, why would he resign from those concurrently important positions before."
A few young scholars couldn't find a reason to refute for a while.
Li Jingye's uncle, Li Siwen, followed Qin Lang's southern tour in the early years, and even married the Qin family, and took Qin Lang's daughter. He has always had a close relationship with the Qin family these years, and belongs to a different kind in the British government. General Yubayashi's relationship is with the Qin family.
Although the generals and generals of the Twenty-Four Guards of the Northern and Southern Yamen have completely evolved into the ranks of generals, similar to Wu Sanguan, they have no actual powers, and these official positions can't command the army at ordinary times, go out to fight, etc. It is also generally led by the chief of a certain road, or led by a certain governor to guard the frontier.
The few generals in the capital who can lead the army are generally led by the name of inspectors, soldiers and horses, or other dispatches, which have nothing to do with the military positions of these generals.
But after all, it is from the military position of the third rank.
Represents the relatives and nobles in purple robes, not to mention that after becoming a general of the guards, they will be transferred according to shifts in the future, and they will also be eligible to serve as the governor or the commander of the army to lead the army.
If you are not even a general of the guards, how can you be qualified to go out to the frontier or lead an expedition.
Li Jingye always felt that his uncle Li Siwen's ability in riding and archery or military tactics was mediocre, but he was promoted quickly after Qin Lang. There are many land estates in Luzon, and they also run trade in the South China Sea together.
Because of his uncle's relationship, Li Jingye felt that Qin Lang was not the kind of person who was indifferent to fame and fortune, otherwise why would he be tossing around in the South China Sea?
He believed that Qin Lang had greater ambitions, but he had been quietly planning and waiting for the opportunity.
"Now Grand Master Qin is completely in charge of the government. He can make Xu Jingzong and Li Yifu resign today, and he can reconcile them tomorrow. Besides, even if the two resign temporarily, Grand Master Qin can make up two of his own people. Isn’t it the same in the Zhengshitang, even if Xu Li is not in the Zhengshitang, as long as he still advises Qin Taishi, isn’t it the same as manipulating and influencing the government?”
Wei Yuanzhong asked, "Who will enter the political affairs hall to pay homage to the prime minister if there is news?"
"There is no news yet, but it must be someone from Grand Master Qin, such as Liu Xiangdao, Master Xu Yu, Hao Chujun, Dai Zhou's son Dai Zhide, Ma Zhou's son Ma Zai, Lai Ji's brother Lai Heng, and Qin Lang's son Qin Jun , Jia Rengong, the son of Jia Runfu, and others, these people are now ministers or servants, isn't it a matter of Qin Lang's words whether they can enter the political affairs hall?"
"That's right, Grand Master Qin has the final say. It is very possible that people like Cheng Zhijie, Niu Jinda, Liu Lancheng, Liang Jianfang, Qin Guozhong, and Li She'er will be allowed to worship in the political hall."
Speaking of this, everyone who was quite happy at first fell silent again.
Nowadays, it is true that Qin Lang has the final say in the court, even more powerful than Sun Wuji, the eldest uncle of the Yuan Dynasty at the beginning of the Kaiyuan period. Although Qin Lang did not appear to be domineering, in fact he was.
The Zhengshitang, Privy Council, Hanlin Academy, Yushitai, and Transshipment Department of the Longshuo Dynasty have all been fully adjusted, and they are all adjusted according to the wishes of Qin Taishi.
Under such circumstances, Qin Taishi's words are indeed more effective than those of the Son of Heaven.
Even the emperor made a special decree that the grand master of Qin can call the officials of the eastern and western mansions and courtyards to discuss matters of military affairs. To put it bluntly, an imperial meeting can be held in the name of the emperor. On the other side, while eating breakfast, Qin Lang communicated and discussed with the chiefs of the Taiwan Department of these big houses.
This power is already terrifying and astonishing, making decisions on behalf of the emperor.
Nominally, it is walking in accordance with the purpose, linking the past and the future.
But in fact, the major strategies of the military, civil and military affairs all come from Qin Lang.
Under such circumstances, it is really hard to believe that Qin Lang has no intention of stealing power. Anyway, these young scholars, I dare not say that if they were in Qin Lang's position, they would be so loyal.
"Then what should we do?" Pei Yan frowned.
"Wait a minute, isn't this just one resignation? There will always be two or three resignations before the emperor will finally accept it. We can only believe it when the real resignation is made, and it depends on who takes over the phase, and Xu Li and Will you leave Beijing?"
Di Renjie also agrees with Wei Yuanzhong's words, "We really can't be impatient, we have to watch first, and we must not make a conclusion early."
······
Quiet afternoon.
Qin Lang left Zhengshitang ahead of schedule, and returned to Shanglinfang in a carriage.
Shanglin Garden, originally the Royal Garden Shanglin Palace, was given to Qin Lang before and renamed Shanglin Garden. The garden is adjacent to the Cherry Island of Qin's family, and now the two families are connected as one family, directly occupying half of Shanglinfang.
The gate of the Qin Mansion on Cherry Island was full of cars, horses and water dragons throughout the first month, and there was an endless stream of visitors, so Qin Lang simply entered Shanglin Garden from the north of Shanglinfang to avoid their disturbance.
The cold wind howled.
The trees in Shanglinfang are also withered, but there is still a lush yard. The whole yard is covered with glass, and a fire is burned every day to keep warm, so that the flowers, plants and trees inside grow very well.
There is even a small vegetable garden inside, the vegetable bed is like a chessboard, and all kinds of fresh and green vegetables are very attractive.
Under the sun, one can enjoy the warmth of the sun without being blown by the cold wind.
Brew a pot of tea, just in time to enjoy.
As a result, there are still guests disturbing.
Cheng Chumo came and couldn't refuse, but Cheng Chumo brought another guest, who suppressed the first female emperor in Chinese history, Cui Yixuan, the former prime minister from governor to doctor of imperial history and assistant minister of Zhongshu in the Kaiyuan Dynasty.
Cheng Chumo saw Qin Lang frowned, came up and smiled to accompany him first.
"I was also helplessly quarreled by my mother, so I brought it here. You know, it's Qinghe Cui's family. I have to call him Uncle. I just led it here, and don't care about the others. You don't have to give it to me Face, if you are not happy now, I will take him away now, anyway, I have brought him into your house, and I have seen you, I have completed the task."
Cheng Chumo is also in his fifties, more and more like the old rascal Cheng Yaojin, with a big belly, and the gold and jade belt can hardly be buckled.
"Since everyone is here, let's sit and have a cup of tea."
Cheng Chumo stood still, "I made an appointment with Niu Er to watch a polo match. The weather is fine today, just right for watching the game. I plan to play a couple of shots later. You can talk to him, I'll go first gone."
"All right."
"When the weather is fine and you are free again, we made an appointment to play polo together. Your polo team from Qin Lang's family has already won 13 championships in the Kyoto Polo League, and the Qin family from Dongfu won it again. Seven championships, your son Qin Dalang's polo team has also won three championships, mother, the Kyoto Polo League has only been held for thirty-seven sessions, and your Qin family has won twenty-three , too shameless."
Qin Lang corrected him.
"The Huaihua County Wang family's team has won three championships, the Guide County Wang family has also won two championships, and the Taiping team has also won two championships."
These words made Cheng Chumo grit his teeth, adding up, it would be equivalent to winning 30 championships, while others won only seven.
"Don't be complacent, that is, I have been guarding the frontier in the early years, and I don't have time and energy to manage our Cheng family's polo team. Otherwise, how could your Qin family be so arrogant every year?"
"Well, the Cheng family polo team is quite good, especially in the early years when you and your father hadn't played teams separately. At that time, every two or three years, you could always get a runner-up or season, which was also strong. It’s just that the two of you have insisted on splitting up the team for the past few years, each playing his own game, but it’s been three years in a row that you haven’t even made it to the semi-finals, you have to work hard.”
Cheng Chumo almost went berserk, "I'm going to practice now, if there is no polo team from Cheng Chumo in the top three of the first year of Longshuo, I will disband the team and stop playing."
Seeing Cheng Chumo leaving in a hurry, Qin Lang put away his smile and sat down.
Someone called Choi Eui-hyun in.
"Mr. Cui, please sit down."
Polo games have become the favorite sport of Datang people, and the Datang Kyoto Polo League is the most successful polo tournament. The league is divided into five competitions: Super, A, B, C, and D. , using the league system, each league has 18 teams.
Each level of the league is played in a home and away round, with 30 rounds in the season, a total of 270 games, and a promotion and relegation system is implemented.
Of course, the most exciting thing among them is the Super League. The 18 teams are all star teams, wealthy clubs, and the leading players of the teams are also star players, sought after by the people of the capital.
The game of polo is no longer purely an aristocratic sport, but has become a top-level event that the whole people pays attention to, and even involves huge economic interests. The 18 teams in the Super League are all Built its own polo hall and training ground.
Selling tickets, polo quiz, advertising sponsorship, etc., all contain huge business opportunities. In the past, the rich and nobles played polo, which was a pure money-burning game. To raise a team with many good horses and some good players, it cost a lot of money every year, and there was no return on the pure investment.
But now, to be famous, more investment can yield more output.
Even in several low-level teams such as B, C, D, many teams are no longer owned by noble families, but are joint-stock partnership teams. They recruit shareholders, issue stocks, and then distribute dividends every year.
Although Qin Lang has not been in Beijing for many years, the Qin family's team has always been famous. In the 37th league, they have won 13 championships, and Dongfu, the former Qin family's main lineage, also won a total of seven championships.
Qin’s team is still a super luxury star team, and each player’s status is super high. The tallest player is also the most expensive player in the league, with a top salary of 10,000 for a five-year contract. Two thousand per year, not including some advertising and other cooperation dividends, earning more than many businesses doing business.
But for the Qin family, maintaining this super luxury team requires a lot of investment, but it can still earn them a lot of income every year, and it can also bring a lot of traffic to the Qin family. This is what Qin Lang is more interested in, otherwise there are thousands of ways to make money, and he doesn't necessarily have to do this all the time.
"I heard that the polo team members of the Qin family are in excellent condition this year, and there is not a single serious injury. I think this year will definitely continue last year's momentum and continue to win the championship."
Cui Yixuan quickly flattered after sitting down.
"That's not necessarily the case. Luoyang is the land of crouching tigers, hidden dragons. The eighteen teams are all masters of tigers and wolves. Who dares to say that they will definitely win the championship."
Qin Lang looked at Cui Yixuan, Cui Yixuan belonged to the Qinghe Cui family, Cheng Yaojin's successor was also the Qinghe Cui family, the two Cui were a family, and Cui Yixuan's resume was relatively rich.
At the end of the Sui Dynasty, he took the initiative to vote for Wagang Li Mi, but it had nothing to do with Qin Qiong. At that time, Qin Qiong was the general of the Wagang Five Tigers, but Cui Yixuan was just a small civilian in charge of military supplies and logistics. Because he could not be reused, he later ran to vote for Li Tang At that time, Li Yuan was very generous and forthright. He liked his five surnames and directly named him Duke of Qingqiu and Sima of Huaizhou.
However, until the Zhenguan Dynasty, Cui Yixuan's official career was only mediocre, and in Zhenguan, he was only mixed with the governor of the Han Palace. In the Kaiyuan Dynasty, he was appointed as the governor of Yizhou. Later, he entered the court because of his meritorious service, and because he was willing to please the emperor, he paid homage to the prime minister all the way.
"Cui Gong has something to say, it's better to say it straight, I have something to do later." Qin Lang was not polite to him. Previously, Cui Yixuan also used Wagang to establish relationships and walked through Qin Lang's family. Opportunity to serve as governor of any state and govern one side.
But later, when Cui Yixuan paid homage to the Prime Minister, he was the same as Li Yifu, and he played against Cui Dunli, Lai Ji, Pei Xingjian and other Qin Lang's people.
Now that he has been dismissed from his post, and has come to visit his cousin Cheng Yaojin, Mrs. Cui, how can he be polite.
"King of Qi knows that the Qin family is in danger, and the family is in danger of being ruined at any time?" Cui Yixuan made shocking words as soon as he opened his mouth.
Qin Lang just chuckled.
