Chapter 296 The strange court situation
"Is it possible that Chun Pingjun's eyeliner is still there in General Pang's army?"
"If there were people from Chunpingjun in General Pang's army, the relationship between the Marquis and General Pang had already been exposed, but Chunpingjun did not seem to know about this."
"But the war broke out, Rao An's chief officials could not access military secrets."
...
Listening to everyone's discussion, Jiang Yu also felt a little headache.
If Chunpingjun intends to rob Pang Li of the war report for help, it means that Chunpingjun must have people in Pang Li's army.
Although Pang Li did a secret job of rushing to Rao An overnight, Chunpingjun's eyes and ears might not have noticed this matter if he was a senior executive in Pang Li's army.
Pang Li's position is very important to Jiang Yu, not only related to subsequent trade deals with the Turks, but also to Jiang Yu's position among merchants from various countries.
Merchants value profit, but they are not very sympathetic. If there is no interest relationship, these merchants may not be able to pay attention to Jiang Yu.
Compared with these, the two-layer profits that Changpingjun promised are irrelevant at all.
Rao An’s interests are divided into two aspects: one is commercial taxation, and the other is merchants giving gifts in exchange for some policy care.
Taxes need to be handed over to the state. Even if part of them can be deducted, the Zhao royal family will still take the big head. Chunpingjun promised Jiang Yan not much.
There is a saying that once there is a proper profit, capitalists will become bolder. If there is a profit of 50%, they will take risks; for a profit of 100%, they will dare to trample on all human laws; if there is a profit of 300%, they will dare to commit any crime, and even risk their heads being hung.
Chunpingjun is desperate for his own benefit.
Jiang Yu thought for a while and said, "This matter needs to be investigated slowly. Mo Ya, you will send someone to Rao An to inform Pang Li tomorrow and make him be wary of it. Although this marquis will take care of him, if there is a problem with his subordinates, it will not be blamed for this marquis."
Mo Ya bowed and said, "Yes!"
Jiang Xu said, "Okay, nothing is wrong. It's getting late. Please go back and rest, Mo Ya stay."
After everyone left, Mo Ya said in confusion: "Does the Marquis have any important things to give?"
Jiang Xi nodded and said, "Two things, first, what's going on with Bai Feng? Second, what changes have happened in Guo Kaifu in the past few months?"
Mo Yahui reported: "Bai Feng has entered the farmer Chiyou Hall. Although Tian Hu is valued by Tian Hu, she still has some reservations in terms of trust. And..."
Seeing that Mo Ya was hesitant, Jiang Xu frowned and said, "Say!"
Mo Ya said: "Although Bai Feng will help us monitor the farmers and convey some information, he... did not surrender to the Marquis."
Jiang Yu chuckled and said lightly: "I have expected this matter, so it's okay."
Bai Feng is still arrogant. In his opinion, he is just helping his brother Mo Ya do things, not Jiang Yu do things. Although this is just a comfort in his heart, it can satisfy Bai Feng's arrogance in his heart.
Seeing that Jiang Yu was not angry with Bai Feng, Mo Ya felt a little relaxed, but she was also a little depressed.
Bai Feng and Jiang Feng are about the same age, but the maturity of the two is very different. If Bai Feng's personality is unprotected, he will suffer a big loss sooner or later.
On the other hand, Jiang Yu, at this age who values face the most, put down all his pride. This time he went to Korea to send gifts to Ji Wuye and bowed his head to admit his mistakes.
Jiang Yu was just to get rid of Prince Zhao Jia and replace the powerful Korean archers to the archers in the army.
Losing some face has led to stronger strength.
Perhaps this is the real reason why Jiang Xi has been able to reach today!
Putting aside what he thought, Mo Ya continued to report: "As for Guo Kai's mansion, there was indeed a change a month ago. My subordinates had reported this to the Marquis at that time. But that time was just a change. As for what really happened, I'm afraid only Guo Kai himself knew."
"As for the back, the Guo family is very calm."
Jiang Xi nodded and said, "It seems that the Yin and Yang family have indeed taken action. Since they have not killed Guo Kai, they are also for the Qin State. By the way, has Guo Kai investigated this matter privately?"
Mo Ya shook her head and said, "No."
Jiang Qi frowned, thought for a long time, and suddenly said, "Mo Ya, I will give you a task. You can find an opportunity to see if Guo Kai has a mantra seal planted by the Yin and Yang family. The position of the mantra seal... is probably at the back of his neck."
"yes!"
Guo Kai is not a person who knows how to tolerate. How could he do nothing if he is bound to repay this flaw?
Even if there are only thieves entering the mansion, they will probably have to turn Handan over before they can be willing to accept it.
The most abnormal thing is that Guo Kai did nothing.
If Qin wants to destroy Zhao, Guo Kai will be indispensable for help. Luo breached the contract before, perhaps because he wanted Guo Kai to hold a grudge against Jiang Qi, but for the senior officials of Qin, as long as they report it, they will understand that getting along with Guo Kai is more important than offending Guo Kai and let Guo Kai hold a grudge against Jiang Qi.
Since he offended Guo Kai in terms of interests, Qin may not be able to use some means to control the people.
Although Yan Fei is by Jiang Yu's side, the purpose of the Yin-Yang family is to help Qin unify the world.
Jiang Yu said to Mo Ya: "Just these two things, go ahead! If Bai Feng needs help, you can also call on the power of this marquis to give some help."
Mo Ya clasped her fists and said, "Thank you, Marquis!"
There was nothing to say all night. The next morning, at the court meeting, Jiang Yu once again reported on Rao An's handover situation. At the same time, King Zhao also announced in public that in addition to continuing to command the troops under his command, Jiang Yu was also deputy chief Chun Pingjun, and jointly took charge of the city defense force.
Chunpingjun also gave a few congratulations with a slight smile, but did not make his relationship with Jiang Sheng public.
King Zhao was old and his eyes were closed. All the news he could get was that Chunpingjun, Guo Kai and other close friends wanted him to know. Now King Zhao's control over Zhao State is no longer as strong as before.
Halfway through the court meeting, King Zhao's body could not hold on, so he could only let Li Mu, Guo Kai, Chunpingjun and a group of court officials handle government affairs, and return to the palace to rest first.
Jiang Yu and Chunpingjun exchanged a look in secret, and Chunpingjun shook his head at Jiang Yu.
Jiang Xu frowned slightly. The court meeting was halfway through, and King Zhao returned to the palace to rest first. This was the first time in history.
And this first time, it was the first court meeting after Jiang Yu was transferred back to Handan.
Li Mu stood beside Jiang Yu, with a hidden worry in his eyes and said, "The king's body... I don't know what changes will happen to Zhao State next."
"Teacher!" Jiang Qi comforted: "With Zhao State and Teacher, they can block any foreign enemy. As for Zhao's internal affairs, they have time to get everything done."
Li Mu agreed: "Yu'er said it right. As long as you block foreign enemies, even if there is some turmoil in the country, there will be a day to calm down."
