C804 If I Use the Sui King to Continue the Chaos in This World
Liu Che suddenly thought of something and asked: "Didn't you say there was another reason?"2
Although Shen Muqing did not dare to hide it, he said truthfully, "The other reason is Fifth Brother's position as the governor of the canal in Beijing and Hangzhou. This is my purpose, which is to force him to use his trump card with my death, deprive him of his official position, and then punish him. This way, the conflict between him and the removal of his position as superintendent of the canal will be reduced a lot."
Zhao Kuangyin was surprised: "Why is it so troublesome just to remove a canal governor? Just directly speak to royal father. "
Shen Muqing shook his head, "Things are not that simple. If we remove his position directly, I'm afraid that he will be strongly opposed. There are a lot of benefits involved in this, and these people will have to let down their guard to make the Wu and Steel Division willingly give up."
Pausing for a moment, Shen Muqing said, "Isn't this the same as bidding for vegetables? Slowly bidding the price, first directly calling out a high price, and then giving a low price to the guests, then lowering the price. This way everyone will be satisfied, but in reality, it's just a aerial seal with a normal price. "
Zhao Kuangyin was born into the royal family, so he didn't know how to buy and sell vegetables. However, after some thought, he already understood what it meant and couldn't help but sigh.
As the saying goes, a kingdom is like a small meal. Buying vegetables and selling vegetables was a very suitable analogy.
"Admirable, admirable."
Liu Che was puzzled. "The canal is a big project, and to officials it is a treasure trove. Any random card can make a huge profit." However, Ninth Brother didn't think it was very interesting. Money was like dirt, what good was this position for him? Why did he make such a big fuss out of it? Today, those officials were completely terrified by you. "
Shen Muqing sighed, "It seems that you have misunderstood me. It's not that I want to snatch this position, but I just don't want Fifth Brother to sit in this position because this position is too critical. If we connect the north to the south and connect the south to the 13th Zhou, there will be big trouble among the people."
Zhao Kuangyin was curious, "How much trouble is there?"
Shen Muqing thought for a moment: "How do the royal brothers think we should explain the current situation in the Central Plains?"
Zhao Kuangyin blurted out, "The Central Plains is indeed not a good place today. The vat stronghold and State of Chu, the several great dukes added together, there are dozens of great dukes of all sizes. It can be said that they have rebelled against the imperial government."
Shen Muqing nodded his head, "If Fifth Brother continued to hold this position, the Central Plains would be in an even greater mess. When the time comes, the Seventy-second Marquis of the Thirty-sixth Road will be in true chaos."
Zhao Kuangyin was shocked by Shen Muqing's words. Even more chaotic than now, wasn't that the real chaotic world?
They did not doubt Shen Muqing's judgement. After repeated planning and budgeting, everyone was convinced of his judgement. Zhao Kuangyin said: "Ninth Brother, if you say it like this, we will fully support you. We cannot let the disaster in the Central Plains continue."
After Zhao Kuangyin finished speaking, Shen Muqing nodded his head, "This matter, perhaps there really is a need for two royal brothers to help. Removing Fifth Brother is the first step, so I need to make more suggestions. "
Liu Che said, "Like what Seventh Brother said, no matter what Ninth Brother thinks, we will fully support him. It's just that next time, it's best to say hello. Don't be like today, our hearts are all stopped by you." These relaxed words immediately dispelled the tense atmosphere.
