Chapter 173 Sixiu King Zhao Shimi
Looking at the young face sticking out of the car, although he had never seen the owner of this face before, Liangshan was still sure at a glance that this young and somewhat overly young man was Jia Sidao, the protagonist who the prince asked him to go down the mountain to greet him today.
"Haha, it's Jia, I don't know if you are..." Jia Sidao walked out of the carriage, but did not jump out of the carriage, but stood on the carriage, looking straight at Liangshan, who was still sitting upright on the tall horse, wonderingly.
When Liangshan saw Jia Sidao like this, a smile flashed in his eyes.
The prince was right, and everyone said that this uncle seemed to care nothing, but in fact he was an extremely conceited and arrogant person. He did not dismount and talk, but the master immediately stood in the carriage with his color.
The guards and infantry soldiers next to him were stunned when they saw the young man who had got out of the carriage. This was the main person who was only over twenty years old at most, so he was just a bachelor's degree? Jia Xueshou? Jia Xueshou...
After muttering twice in my heart, Qiu Meng, the commander of the guards and infantry commander of this battalion, was shocked suddenly.
Could it be that the reason why Liang Xixi came down the mountain to greet him in person today was that the master was not successful? Qiu Meng felt more and more certain as he thought about it. Thinking about it, with Liang Shan’s status in the palace, only this master could let him come to greet him in person?
Thinking of this, the cold sweat on Qiu Meng's forehead could not help but fall. If Liangshan's cavalry hadn't happened to come, then the consequences... Qiu Meng could no longer think about it. He glared at the soldiers who had just wanted to take the initiative to come forward to have some fun, but he completely forgot that he just smiled more happily than anyone else.
"In the west of Xia Sixiu Prince's Mansion, we come here to welcome Lord Jia at the order of the prince."
Since the desired result has been tested, Liangshan naturally would not be so stupid that he continued to make Jia Sidao unhappy in such a small matter. He took the initiative to turn over and dismount, stood on the ground and looked up at Jia Sidao with a fist and a smile.
"It turns out to be Mr. Liang. Shi Xian has long admired Mr. Wei's name. It is worth the trip to be fortunate to see Mr. Wei's true face today."
Jia Sidao looked at Liangshan who suddenly turned over and got off the horse, jumped off the carriage and stood still, and also clasped his fists and said with a smile.
Liangshan couldn't help but smile a little playful smile when he heard Jia Sidao's obvious nonsense. This uncle Jia Guojiu was really an interesting person. Everyone knows that after he had amnesia, he didn't even know his own sister, Concubine Jia, so how could he know himself? Not to mention that he has been in the Sixiu Palace and rarely goes out. Except for this Longshou Mountain, except for a few people in the capital, there are really not many people who know him, let alone have heard of his name a long time ago.
"Mr. Jia has actually heard of Liang's name? I don't know what I have heard of." Liangshan looked at Jia Sidao and suddenly said with a smile.
"..." Jia Sidao's face froze.
"Haha, Lord Jia is indeed a wonderful person! Please, the prince is afraid he will be anxious."
Liangshan looked at Jia Sidao's defeated look and said with a smile.
Jia Sidao touched his nose and smiled helplessly, "Sir, are even more wonderful people. If you don't give up, would you like to take the same charity as Shi Xian?"
"I dare not ask for what I wish!"
Liangshan did not refuse and laughed in a literary way.
As the closest aide to Zhao Shimi, King Sixiu, he naturally knew that his master valued Jia Sidao. The first small test was just a whim. He wanted to be close to Jia Sidao, and he would naturally not refuse the request of Jia Sidao.
The two looked at each other and laughed, feeling a little bit like a grudge, and then walked into the simple carriage together.
The red-armored knight who followed Liangshan to greet him naturally guarded the carriage. Wang Bian lifted up the hat on his head, glanced at the fierce red-armored knights, then jumped onto the carriage, shouted and drove the carriage slowly along the official road.
Mo Ye and Jia Quaner did not come with him this time. Jia Sidao only brought Wang Bing alone. Mu Nuan left, Qiu Shang and Zhou Bo were both deputy commanders of the Command Department of the Maritime General Office. Now the only thing he can truly trust is Wang Bing. He can be a bodyguard and drive a carriage, which saves a lot of trouble.
Jia Sidao was invited.
The day before, the invitation from King Sixiu and the young master Zhao Shimi suddenly arrived at the Jia Mansion. After a brief surprise, Jia Sidao immediately clarified the causes and consequences. Now it seems that some of the royal family forces that have been hiding in the court have finally begun to emerge.
Jia Sidao didn't know much about King Sixiu Zhao Shimi. There were only four Kings of the Song Dynasty, and these four Kings of Hei are the most noble people nowadays except King Rong Zhao and Rui. It was just that it was because of their close relationship with the emperor that these Kings of Heixiu were unusually low-key. Of course, this was also directly related to their inability to participate in the government.
However, not participating in the government affairs is just a superficial restriction. Each emperor cannot participate in the government affairs themselves, but in private, each emperor has more or less involved in the government ministers. If you really want to investigate, I am afraid that none of them will be clean. After all, whether it is to protect their interests or for their status, it is necessary to have agents in the court.
Therefore, no one in the court can ignore the energy that these heir kings possess. The most important thing is that you will never know which ministers in this court have something to do with these royal families.
In fact, Jia Sidao was a little surprised by the series of events that happened in the court these days. At the beginning of his statement, he just wanted to muddle the water in the court as much as possible, and then delay the purchase of grain in the court as much as possible to win some necessary time for his arrangements.
This was his helpless move.
In fact, the easiest way to solve Wen Lianggong and others is to invest enough grain at once and use a low price to reduce the price of grain near Lin'an Prefecture. At that time, if Wen Lianggong and others did not sell grain, they could only rot the grain in the granary. If they wanted to sell it, they had to reduce the grain price to the same as them. In that case, they would lose less, but they would inevitably suffer a loss.
Of course, Wen Lianggong and others can also use silver to directly buy all the grain that Jia Sidao put into the market, so the price of grain will still be under their control. This should actually be the best method. As long as there is enough food and Wen Lianggong and others are greedy enough, they can put a little bit of bait to lock the silver in the hands of Wen Lianggong and others little bit by bit. Then maybe just once, they can be doomed.
If the grain price is low enough, Jia Sidao believes that Wen Lianggong and the others will definitely take this bait.
But Jia Sidao dared not bet. He didn't know how much money Wen Lianggong and others had. More importantly, he didn't have much food anymore. He couldn't get too much food, so he could only settle for the second best and use some other means to attack Wen Lianggong and others, and give them a lesson. Without food and money, all Jia Sidao could do was just teach them a lesson.
However, everything that happened after the above statement was not only dazzled by the ministers in the court, but even Jia Sidao himself was also very confused.
Yuan Fu was handed over by someone. He just told some of the pros and cons of the 10 million yuan a year. What he didn't expect was that Yuan Fu chose to stand on his side. What surprised him even more was that in addition to Yuan Fu, even Li Shao, Zou Yinglong and other Neo-Confucianists were standing opposite Qiao Xingjian this time.
This is a bit unreasonable.
After all, Jia Sidao knew better than anyone else about Yuan Fu, Li Shao and others' celebrations with him. If the Neo-Confucian School was really dedicated to the country, it would not have helped Qiao Xingjian stab Zheng Qing in the back on the issue of "Duanping and entering Luoyang" such as "Peaceful Entry" and the face of the Song Dynasty. You must know that after all, they were all Zheng Qingzhi brought them to the court.
Although Yuan Fu and others were all for the ambitions of Neo-Confucianism, they did the ungrateful thing in the final analysis. Now it seems that Qiao Xingjian has become another victim of these people.
Qiao Xingjian's face was a big loss, and Jia Sidao didn't know what benefits it would be for Yuan Fu and others. No matter where he looked, at most, Yuan Fu was reluctant to give him a favor because he let Yuan Tong go, but Yuan Fu was the only one. If Li Shao and others continued to help Qiao Xingjian, even if Yuan Fu turned against him, it would have nothing to do with the overall situation. Jia Sidao's statement would be just disgusting Qiao Xingjian and delaying the release time of Huizi. If Qiao Xingjian was determined to help Wen Lianggong and others, it would be nothing.
Now that Qiao Xingjian is an alliance with Qiao Xingjian, the Neo-Confucian faction has been completely rebelled, Qiao Xingjian, who has lost face, is now in power. In fact, everyone knows that it depends entirely on Zhao Yun's mood. The government has lost control of everything in the court and cannot implement Zhao Yun's thoughts. It is inevitable that he will be dismissed.
However, Qiao Xingjian lost his position as governing, which was also a blow to the Neo-Confucian faction. They had defeated the rule of the two Song dynasties one after another. Such a faction would probably stay away from them no matter who would become governing in the future, and would even be guarded against suppression.
From what I saw behind Qiao Xingjian this time, the Neo-Confucian school was either stuck in the head, or they had their irresistible power to force them to do this. Jia Sidao would never believe that they would repay Yuan Tong with a favor, because his righteousness was all about the letters that were thought of in the Song Dynasty to do such a loss-making business. Not to mention, everyone knows that Zhao Yun obviously wanted to use a good fortune to buy food to "quench his thirst".
After all, just for Jia Sidao himself, isn’t the reason why he opposed it all for the Song Dynasty?
If Yuan Fu and others work hard like this, even if they can sing such an opposite tune with the emperor, there must be other things besides the cloak of righteousness that they have done.
King Sixiu's invitation was surprised, but Jia Sidao felt that he had touched some of the veins. Of course, it was the prince who had never dealt with him who was behind his back that he could only figure it out after seeing someone.
The carriage was walking along the wide mountain road. Jia Sidao thought to himself, but he was chatting casually with Liangshan who was deliberately making friends. The two soon became familiar with each other.
"Sir, here!"
After about half a stick of incense, a low sound came from outside the carriage.
