Chapter 172 Zhang Liang's Plan for Internal Affairs
Zi Lan Xuan, late at night, in the attic.
After having a small gathering with Han Wangan, Han Fei was puzzled and went to Zilanxuan without stopping.
Mu Feng, Wei Zhuang, Zi Nu and Zhang Liang were all waiting for Han Fei.
Zhang Liang put down the wine in his hand, his expression changed slightly and he said: "The disaster of millet in Nanyang is serious at the moment. The fourth master proposed to hold a birthday celebration at this time. I am afraid his intention is unclear."
Wei Zhuang came over from the window, knelt down in front of the table, and said, "Interesting."
"Han Yu wants to take advantage of this opportunity to seize Ji Wuye's military power."
Zhang Liang worriedly said, "Nanyang is located at the border of Qin and Han. If disaster relief is not provided in time, there may be civil unrest."
Han Fei smiled and said, "My father has given me full responsibility for investigating the disaster in Nanyang and Fushu counties. Let me go and investigate this matter."
Zi Nu asked, "This matter is very important, why don't you refuse?"
Mu Feng said, "Because there is a person in Nanyang who is a perfect match for us."
"The Jade Tiger's influence is all over Nanyang. We can use this opportunity to turn the Jade Tiger's entire body into a valuable treasure."
"Night wants revenge, so we'll take his money."
......
Early in the morning, since Han Fei accepted the order from Han Wangan to investigate the disaster in the two counties of Nanyang and Fushu, everyone began to look through the materials.
Of course, Mu Feng and Wei Zhuang were the exceptions. One was too lazy to move, and the other was too lazy to watch. Anyway, they had no interest, so the pressure naturally came to Zhang Liang.
After reading all the information, Zhang Liang sighed and said, "I have read all the information about Nanyang. The records are chaotic and incomplete. It is difficult to investigate further. The clues have been cut off."
"The issue of appointing a crown prince is still pending, and the sudden disaster in Nanyang may have some implications."
Han Fei pondered and said, "Zifang, you mean that only when the prince supported by Ye Mu ascends to the position of crown prince, the disaster will be reversed."
Wei Zhuang crossed his arms, stared out the window, and said coldly: "That is the biggest disaster for South Korea. So what is the exchange condition for becoming the crown prince?"
"Night will further eat away at this parasitic shell of a nation until it is completely devoured."
Han Fei understood Wei Zhuang's thoughts, and silently added in his heart that the condition also included Honglian's life.
Han Fei stood up and said, "I will go to Nanyang to find out what's going on."
"Zifang, you come and investigate the case files further."
Mu Feng opened his eyes and smiled, "The disaster in Nanyang and Fushu counties came swiftly. I'm afraid Ye Mu may have been involved."
"Brother Han, you will be in charge of dealing with Ji Wuye and the others, collecting food, and preparing for disaster relief."
"As for the Emerald Tiger, it's time for me to go meet my old friend. After all, I haven't seen him for a long time and I miss him a little."
"Brother Wei Zhuang, you will be responsible for Brother Han's safety. If nothing unexpected happens, Ye Mu's primary target will be Brother Han."
Zi Nu smiled and said, "I'm afraid my longing for you is fake, but my desire for the Jade Tiger's treasure is real."
Mu Feng: "......"
This completely expressed Mu Feng's real thoughts: if you could defeat the Emerald Tiger, you would really have a lot of money.
Han Fei: “…”
After all the twists and turns, it was me who started this whole thing, right?
Wei Zhuang nodded solemnly. The establishment of a crown prince and the drought, the two were inexplicably brought together at this time. Han Fei was the ninth son of King Han An, and it was difficult for him to escape from the terror.
Zhang Liang frowned and said, "But, Brother Han, there is not enough material in the storage room. If we want to investigate further, we can only..."
Mu Feng laughed: "Zifang, since Brother Han wants to strengthen Liusha, then the court should also allocate a position for government affairs."
Han Fei smiled confidently: "Brother Mu is right, Zifang, leave the rest to me."
......
The next morning, in the main hall of the King of Han's Palace.
The King of Han sat firmly on the throne with a serious expression. There was a hint of kingly majesty in his every move. He was high above everyone else, looking down on them.
Ji Wuye and Bai Yifei stood on the left with serious expressions, while Zhang Kaidi and Han Yu were on the right with relaxed expressions.
Han Fei was in the middle, holding hands and bowing, and reported: "State affairs are complicated, so I recommend Zhang Liang, the grandson of Prime Minister Zhang, to serve as the eunuch."
Ji Wuye definitely disagreed and said, "The post of an internal official is of great importance, how can it be treated as a joke?"
Han Fei turned around and retorted: "The Zhang family has served as prime minister for five dynasties. Zifang has also received a lot of instruction from Prime Minister Zhang. In addition, he is young and promising. Why can't he take on this important responsibility?"
Ji Wuye's expression changed.
Bai Yifei said calmly, "Zhang Liang is still young, I'm afraid he won't be able to take on the task."
Recommend Zhang Liang to be the eunuch, and Zhang Kaidi agreed. If Han Fei wins, the Zhang family can basically be guaranteed to be the prime minister for the Six Dynasties.
Zhang Kaidi supported Zhang Liang and said, "Although Zifang is young, he is more intelligent than me."
Ji Wuye sneered, "Prime Minister Zhang really promotes people regardless of their personal relationships. In the previous case of the ghost soldiers' robbery, Lord Zhang strongly recommended five judges, but not only did they accomplish nothing, they all died for no reason."
Zhang Kai's face changed. As for the deaths of the five judges before, I'm afraid Ji Wuye knows it better. The fight between the two has never stopped.
At this moment, neither side could refute the other, and the air was silent.
At this time, the fourth son Han Yu suddenly stepped forward, held hands and saluted, saying: "I think Zhang Liang is indeed a suitable candidate for the eunuch."
With Han Yu's support, Zhang Liang was directly appointed as the eunuch, which caught Ji Wuye and Bai Yifei off guard.
After the court meeting ended and Han Fei left the hall, he rushed to Zilanxuan again. It seemed that Han Fei was very anxious about these things.
Han Fei told everyone what he had seen and heard in the court, obviously wanting to seek their opinions.
Zhang Liang frowned slightly and said, "Fourth Master Han Yu actually recommended me to be an eunuch. How is this possible?"
Wei Zhuang said grimly, "Fourth Master Han Yu is extremely ambitious, I'm afraid he has other plans."
Mu Feng suddenly asked, "Brother Han, you said that after the court session, Han Yu stayed with Prime Minister Zhang for a while?"
Han Fei nodded and asked in surprise: "Could it be?"
Mu Feng nodded, moistened his throat and said jokingly: "It seems that Zifang's talent has made Han Yu eager to win him over."
Zhang Liang smiled bitterly. He didn't expect that he had been caught up in the quarrel between the young masters.
Mu Feng continued, "Han Yu helped Zifang get the position of internal servant, in addition to thinking about Zifang."
"Another point is that I want to win over Prime Minister Zhang. In this way, if I do him a favor, I will get support when I choose a crown prince, and I will be more confident of becoming the next crown prince."
Zi Nu pondered and said, "With this opportunity, Han Yu wants to tilt the balance of both parties to his side and win the favor of Zhang Xiangguo and Zi Fang at the same time."
"Fourth Master Han Yu is indeed a shrewd and calculating person."
Zhang Liang was helpless. Such a matter would eventually involve the issue of establishing a crown prince. It was conceivable that the pressure would be great.
Wei Zhuang then said, "Fourth Master Han Yu is actively preparing, but unfortunately, this guy only knows how to spend his money on wine and women."
Han Fei smiled bitterly and almost couldn't hold the wine glass. There was murderous intent in him, and it was very obvious.
