Chapter 647 Watching a Theater

The turmoil was caused by an inexplicable fire, and then burned to a very interesting Song family.

Where is the interesting place? The reason why the Song family is in a lot of trouble this time is because of the "crime plus one" mentioned in the newly promulgated money and grain tightening strategy. And this strategy happened to be promulgated by the Song family's biggest backer, under the leadership of King Ling.

Do you think you hurt yourself?

It is estimated that Yang Shu would not have thought that he would promulgate the strategy on his front foot, and the first person to hit the knife edge with his back foot would have been following his hard-core vassal all along.

Where is it not handled?

At present, it seems that someone in the Song family is more active than Yang Shu. The Ministry of Penalties of the local yamen directly intervened, and what they made a lot of noise was to convict the Song family with the newly promulgated money and food austerity strategy. He even purposely stirred up the turmoil in order to push Yang Shu against the wall.

Even the fire was very strange. Such a large batch of pan-spirit stones would be so hastily hidden in a secret room in another courtyard. And that secret room is actually just a deep pit dug in the ground, without formations and tight cover, can this be called a secret room? Can hiding things be so sloppy?

Anyone with a discerning eye can tell that someone is deliberately framing the Song family, and the target of the attack is naturally Yang Shu, who is behind the Song family.

"Hehe, interesting. The Ministry of Criminal Justice and the local government teamed up to trick the Song family. It is estimated that the Song family will have a hard time if they don't shed their skin this time. Maybe they will be killed as an example."

Wuzhuang, the backyard of Yang Yansi's mansion.

Still at the edge of the small vegetable field, Yang Yansi, dressed as an old farmer, was sitting on the edge of the vegetable field, wiping his sweat while listening to the report from the guards behind him. And in a gazebo not far away, there was a man with cold breath and black and white eyes, who had visited Yang Yansi once before, and was called "Prince" by Yang Yansi.

While talking, Yang Yansi got up, went to the gazebo, sat down opposite the previous person, grabbed the teapot on the table, made himself a cup of herbal tea, and drank it all in one gulp.

"My lord, there is already movement outside. I think the prelude has kicked off, and the seven princes have already begun to show their talents."

"They're all boys from the younger generation, wild-minded and courageous, coupled with years of repression, now they're like beasts released from a cage, all they want to do is to show themselves and tear apart the enemy. Hehe, just like me back then, the result is always It’s about ignoring the most important things.”

"Oh? What's the most important?"

"The most important thing is not only to fight and be fierce, but also how to show your abilities in the fight, not just fight and kill. Unfortunately, when I understand this truth, I have been wandering in the city of death for many years Afterwards, if he had awakened earlier, he wouldn't have been narrowly beaten by a villain like Yang Jian."

Yang Yansi grasped a point, and said with a smile: "A narrow victory? Didn't you say that the emperor was cheating before? Now you also admit defeat?"

"He was cheating me when he won, but winning is winning. Why can't I admit that I lost? It's just that I don't accept it. If I can sit in that position, I can do better than him!

Father's choice back then was wrong. That's why I have to correct this mistake. "

Yang Yansi didn't chew anymore.

The two were silent for a long time before Yang Yansi broke the silence and said, "I was shocked when you told me that Yueyinglou and Yang Shu were in collusion. Such a trick. I don’t know if the other people are also hiding it like this.”

"Hahaha, did you surprise me? Didn't I also hide my relationship with Master back then? If not, how could I escape my life? Others treat the royal family's "big exam" like watching a play, but for us It's a game of life and death. I'm sure that Yang Jian's seven sons definitely have their cards hidden.

But the Yang Shu you mentioned is really interesting. That kid is not simple. His relationship with Yueyinglou is a bit strange. It doesn't look like a pure "ally" relationship.

And many people, including you, are blinded by old ideas. What makes you think Yang Shu is weak? He is in charge of the "tea" among the five imperial merchants, and his business is spread all over the country. Almost half of the big merchants have contacts with him, and 30% of the new nobles are close to him. How many things can be done in the open and in the dark? These things are no different from the so-called high-class people who are so intricate in your eyes, right?

Now that Yang Jian has handed over the power of tightening money and food to Yang Shu, it can be regarded as making up for Yang Shu's only flaw. As long as Yang Shu is not stupid, this power plus other powers in his hands, I think he is now He is the strongest person. "

"No wonder you put people next to Yang Shu, so you are so optimistic about him?"

"One was born at the end, with a bad set of cards in his hand, and he relied on accumulating strength bit by bit from the inconspicuous place of others. It can be regarded as a slanted sword. Now that the times are turning around, there should be something to do. It's just a bet, bet By the way, I can save a lot of effort. It doesn't matter if you make a wrong bet, at worst, you have to choose another one.

Anyway, this "big test" won't be able to tell the winner for a while. "

Yang Yansi nodded and agreed: "That's right. Now the southern frontier army just won a round, and the overall battle has become favorable to Zuo Yuliang. The situation in the imperial city is closely related to the southern military affairs, and it should not end in a short time. .

It's just that I don't know where Zuo Yuliang got the courage to drag the battle line so long. If there is a slight problem with the supply line, the entire army will be directly divided into two. risk! Too dangerous! "

"You are an expert in military affairs, Zuo Yuliang is not worthy of carrying your shoes, there must be something you don't know, so it's a mistake."

"That's right. Zuo Yuliang likes to take risks, but he will never put the entire army in a dangerous situation and win. He must have some way to solve the problem of supply lines." Yang Yansi fell into deep thought. In fact, he had been thinking about this question when he heard that Zuo Yuliang moved the Chinese army to Wuhu, but he had no idea.

At least for the time being, Yang Yansi would not have thought that the reason why Zuo Yuliang dared to lead his army deep into the hinterland of the barbarians was because he could cross thousands of miles of bamboo seas and establish a shorter and more convenient supply point deep in the barbarian territory. And Yang Yansi never thought that the route across the sea of ​​bamboos came from his former confidant Xu Hong. Even if he thought of Yang Yansi, he was still not sure, because the sidewalk of the Wanli Bamboo Sea that Xu Hong knew was just a general direction, how could it accommodate a large army to pass through?

This is a difference in information, and it cannot be guessed by deduction alone.

As a matter of fact, it seems unbelievable to the outside world that Xiaochuan entered the Wanli Bamboo Sea and crossed it, but to those who have experienced it personally, it seems that it is not dangerous.
