MTL - Unparalleled Concubine-v2 Chapter 1137 Negotiation expert Li Changan
Chapter 1137 Negotiation Expert Li Changan
The general direction of the Southwest Group's decision-making is generally made by Li Xin himself. Occasionally, when he wants to ask for advice, he will only talk to Zhao Jia alone.
Although the relationship between Li Xin and Mu Ying and Li Shuo is very good, but realistically speaking, Zhao Jia's ability is higher than these two people.
Mu Ying and Li Shuo can only be said to be good generals. To put it more carefully, they are the only two generals in this era who can use firearms proficiently and then be able to lead an army alone, but in fact this is Li Xin. As a result of deliberate cultivation, taking Ye Mao to the Southwest Army for a year or two will never be worse than these two.
But Zhao Jia is different.
To put it bluntly, if Li Xin is willing to quit and let Zhao Jia take over the Southwest Group, apart from interpersonal relationships, everyone can agree with Zhao Jia. , other places will be no different from now, and the Southwest Group can still operate.
But if the Southwest Group suddenly loses Zhao Jia, Li Xin really doesn't know where to find such a trustworthy general manager to help him take care of these complicated government affairs.
This is a scholar who has been with Li Xin for many years, a scholar who has learned the realm of reading and can take charge of himself in any situation.
Li Xin has always respected Zhao Jia, so when faced with this issue, he did not mention it with Li Shuomuying, but left Zhao Jia alone to discuss.
The tea on the small stove slowly dried up. Zhao Jia took off the small teapot calmly, poured half a barrel of mountain spring water from the bamboo tube on the side, and put it on the small stove again.
After he had done all this, he glanced at Li Xin and continued: "If you, Lord Hou, were not the consort of the Ji family back then, this situation would be much easier to handle today."
Having said this, Zhao Jia shook his head and said, "This is also the genius of Emperor Jing. He firmly bound the Marquis and the Ji family together early in the morning, and left some invisible chains on the Marquis. "
Li Xin was silent for a long time, then slowly asked, "If Brother You'an sits in my position, what will Brother You'an do?"
"I said, Lord Hou can't be angry."
Zhao Jia smiled slightly and said, "If I were Lord Hou, the first thing I would do now would be... divorce my wife for the time being."
Li Xin frowned.
"Okay, stop talking."
These two are smart people. As soon as Zhao Jia opened his mouth, Li Xin knew what he wanted to say.
The so-called divorce is not necessarily to call the nine princesses out of the Li family, but to let the nine princesses give up the identity of the main wife. Li Xin is still very young, and he can choose a woman from a big family in the capital to marry. Then take concubines widely, so that you can quickly win over a large number of civil and military ministers.
Over time, these people will naturally push Li Xin to that position, and there will be no sequelae.
The reason why Zhao Jia let Li Xin divorce his wife is because once the world changes surnames, the heirs of the new dynasty cannot have half of the blood of the Great Jin Dynasty.
Of course, Li Xin's current children will not lose their status as princes and princesses, they just lose their inheritance rights.
Zhao Jia only said half a sentence, but was interrupted directly by Li Xin. He looked at Li Xin's slightly angry expression, and hurriedly lowered his head and said, "My subordinates made a mistake, please forgive me, Lord Hou."
Li Xin closed his eyes and let out a breath slowly: "Forget it, you and I have been friends for more than ten years, chat in private, whatever you say, but..."
Governor Li looked at Zhao Jia and said solemnly: "You must not let outsiders know about your idea, let my wife hear it, let alone Mu Ying and the others."
"I can make it clear to you that this idea is absolutely impossible. Even if I leave the capital, it is impossible for me to do such a ruthless thing."
Li Xin said with a cold face: "If you are connected, so that Mu Ying and Li Shuo have the same idea, don't blame me for turning against you."
This method mentioned by Zhao Jia is undoubtedly the method of maximizing the interests of the entire Southwest Group. If Muying, Li Shuo and others know about it, most of them will be moved, but Li Xin cannot be for the collective interests of the Southwest Group. Compromise, so I said these decisive words to Zhao Jia.
"I dare not dare."
Zhao Jia turned pale, bowed his head and smiled bitterly: "This subordinate is just talking about his enthusiasm, he is talking nonsense, and he will never tell a third person to know..."
He and Li Xin have known each other for more than ten years, and he has almost never seen Li Xin get angry. This is the first time that Li Xin is so angry. Even Zhao Jia is a little scared.
Li Xin lowered his head and drank a few sips of tea before he calmed down, and continued: "There is still time to think about this matter slowly, let's put it aside for the time being, and now our eyes will be on the north and the local forces that are just around the corner in Dajin. superior."
The Southwest Army is now entering Beijing in the name of "Welcome to the Holy Monarch", and the emperor of the Ji family is indeed sitting on the throne. Most of the Ji family vassals in various places can also see that it is the southwestern army who committed the chaos. Although these vassals have the same surname as the emperor, they have no military power in the local area, but they have a good influence. Down, it's not difficult to pull up an army.
Li Xin continued: "First of all, the Shang Shutai came forward and posted the emperor list in various places, indicating that it was the succession of the first emperor's sixth emperor, and then the place was strictly monitored. If there is any change in the place, the nearest yamen will send troops to suppress it."
Speaking of this, Li Xin said slowly: "Especially in Guangling, where King Qi is located, we must send people to monitor it closely. If necessary, I can ask the Imperial Army to send a Zhechong mansion out to keep an eye on the vassal kings in the south of the Yangtze River."
Zhao Jia bowed his head respectfully and said, "The things that the Hou Ye explained, the subordinates will do it tomorrow. As for the vassal kings in various places... If the Hou Ye is worried, you might as well send someone directly to their mansion to keep an eye on them to prevent them from doing anything wrong. Changes, keep an eye on them, it will be more convenient when the Marquis wants to do something to them in the future..."
Li Xin nodded silently: "I will take care of this matter and let the people from Anbu handle it."
Two people, the Grand Governor of the Grand Governor's House, and the actual Prime Minister of the Shangshutai, sat in this warm pavilion, talking to the two pots of tea from the northern Xinjiang to the local vassal kings, and to the officials at all levels in the capital. Arrangements, and whom the Beijing civil servants can win or suppress.
The two talked for about an hour or two, and when they were hungry, they asked the people from the Hou residence to send food to the warm pavilion. It was not until midnight that Zhao Jiacai discussed all matters in the court with Li Xin.
The right servant of the minister drank several sips of tea, rested for a while, and then calmed down, he said to Li Xin: "Now the capital and surrounding forces are in the hands of the Marquis, and the generals are also It is a person from the Hou Ye, there is nothing to worry about, but the six departments of the capital are not in the hands of the Hou Ye, although the subordinates are in charge of the Shangshutai, but if the people of the six departments are in favor of the yin, there is nothing I can do."
"The matter of attracting these civil servants needs to be put on the agenda as soon as possible. Only when the six ministers and nine ministers all agree with the prince, we can have the final say in this court. If these people still miss the old dynasty, even if we hold the Shangshutai, it will not be enough. It's just a castle in the sky."
Having said this, Zhao Jia hesitated for a moment, then said, "When necessary, Lord Hou condescends... Taking a few concubines... It shouldn't hurt."
"You don't need to be so troublesome."
Li Xin's face was calm.
"In the next few days, I will let the people from the Anbu send the information of important civil servants in Beijing to the government, promote and demote a group, and then replace some people, at most half a month, I will be able to hold them all in my hands. ."
Governor Li chuckled.
"I'm very good at negotiating this kind of thing."
"Especially when it's possible to overwhelm people."
Although this chapter is a chapter of dialogue, but... there is still a lot of content, and it is also very important for advancing the next plot. Ladies and gentlemen, don't call me water, woo woo...
