Chapter 1113 The Elder is Assassinated
Wanli threw out the card of filial piety, and Tang Yi was certainly not easy to stop him, but he knew in his heart that it was nonsense. It would be great that Wanli could not hate his father. If Longqing had not been weak and indulged, how could the authority of the cabinet have the momentum of the momentum... Wanli really paid tribute to Longqing, only one purpose was to show his presence. He had to constantly remind the world that he was the emperor of the Ming Dynasty and the master of the world.
Forget it, it's not worth falling out for a little bit of trouble.
As the chief assistant, Tang Yi would also accompany Wanli to Tianshou Mountain.
"Dad, your old lady has indulged the little emperor!" Tang Pingfan said with a calm face: "I heard that His Majesty kept moving in private and winning people's hearts everywhere. Moreover, the uncle Wang Han, the Marquis of Wuqing Li Wei, and the Duke of British Zhang Yuangong, these people are all trying to win over the forces everywhere, with bad intentions and great ambitions. If they really want to make trouble, the consequences will be unimaginable."
After Pingfan finished speaking, Wang Yueying's face changed first. She put down the bowls and chopsticks. Liuying took a look and hurriedly pulled a few younger children away, leaving only a couple, father and son, and a family of three.
Wang Yueying said worriedly: "Master, is what ordinary people say true?"
Tang Yi took a deep breath and nodded, "That's right, from top to bottom, from inside to outside, there are undercurrents. The situation is only more than ordinary people, and we cannot be optimistic at all!"
In front of his wife and children, Tang Yi did not want to lie. It was the real responsible way to make them feel at ease and know the truth. Wang Yueying's face changed for a moment and soon returned to normal.
"Master, you have survived so many years and you have survived the difficulties. Logically, we don't have to worry. But now, there are so many people making trouble, why can't you see the master's actions? Is it already taking action, or is it inconvenient?" Wang Yueying was extremely smart and thought much deeper than ordinary. Tang Yi did have many inconvenient things.
"The common people often say that I have been in charge of the family for three years. I have been in the Ming Dynasty for more than ten years. How many people have formed a lot of ties and how many people have disliked me? I know in my heart!"
"father!"
Pingfan suddenly stood up and shook his head and said, "You Laobian Country for more than ten years, with great strides and great intentions to innovate. Now the Ming Dynasty is famous, and the four barbarians are invincible. The territory is vast, the people are healthy. The soldiers are strong and the treasury is abundant. The people in the world are praised by everyone. You are so prestige among the people. Those who oppose you are just sluts and are not worth mentioning." Pingfan did not run around the world like his brother. He has been following Tang Yi, learning about his father's governance, observing his father's skills, and learning Tang Yi's abilities.
The more I think about it, the more I feel that my father is amazing. Tang Yi is his idol! He will definitely not allow others to say bad things, not even Tang Yi.
"Silly boy, people are more important to know themselves." Tang Yi smiled bitterly: "You are talking about one aspect, but have you ever thought about it? There are great difficulties. If I want to replace it, I would have taken action long ago. Why wait until today! Whoever I attack will be interpreted as my father's current status, and it will be taken to the next level. Not to mention the ambitious people hiding in every corner, even those under me may not want to be heroes and honor their wives and children."
Pingfan was said to have lost his temper and muttered, "Dad, why don't you take a step forward?"
"Hahaha, silly boy, the figures counted by various provinces last year were as many scholars as the Ming Dynasty. Do you know how many scholars were?"
"53.5 million!" Pingfan said excitedly: "Dad, this is all the contribution of your elder Dadaxing education. There have never been so many scholars in the past dynasties."
"There are more people and more thoughtful." Tang Yi said angrily: "As for the current situation, one cannot control it at all, even the wise emperor cannot do it. Dad is unwilling to sit in that position, but he is actually afraid of causing trouble for you. The world is progressing rapidly, and the era of the king's holy heart is arbitrary and holding a Tianxian in his mouth has passed. If he sits in that position, he will face all directions, open and secret arrows. I bully other people's orphans and widows, and others may not bully you!"
The little face of ordinary people was pale. When he heard what his father said in his heart, he couldn't help but shrink his shoulders.
Tang Yi laughed again, "Being a father is not old, no one can touch the Tang family. But he has to arrange things for the future. Wu Tiancheng is old and has worked in the Ming Dynasty Savings Bank for too many years. I will take him into the cabinet. Ordinary, go and take over the bank!"
ah!
Gongfan was startled, "Am I done?"
"Hmph!" Tang Yi's face turned dark, "My son is not allowed to say that he can't. If he is worried, he will ask your mother!"
"What are you doing with me?"
Wang Yueying gave Tang Yi a blank look, but could only nod.
In fact, as early as the beginning of her marriage, Tang Yi handed over many industries to Wang Yueying. Later, the Tang family's status became higher and higher, and the wealth in their hands became more and more. Especially the shares of the Transportation Bank were the top priority. Wang Yueying learned a lot from Tang Yi and Zhou Qinyun, and she was very talented and had a strong understanding. In recent years, overseas development and transportation bank expansion business were all controlled by Wang Yueying, and Zhou Qinyun had retreated to the second line for a long time.
It is naturally the most suitable way to be a mother teaching her son.
"On ordinary, my father knows that you originally wanted to be an official, and join the cabinet and serve as a minister like your father, and control the world. But in that case, our Tang family will be too conspicuous. Holding the gold power in your hand is much more relaxed than being an official. And if you want to keep our family for a long time and keep your father's great reform career, it is absolutely impossible to protect it without the escort of the gold power."
Tang Yi rarely interferes with the child's choice, but this time he mentioned it directly. Pingfan knew what it meant, so he nodded vigorously, "Dad, don't worry, the child must take it!"
After sending away the ordinary people, only Tang Yi and Wang Yueying were left.
"These two boys, one of them went overseas and the other was in charge of finance. Will the master feel a little regretful?" Wang Yueying suddenly asked with a smile.
"I think there is any regret. If they really get them into the court, they will drag down their progress because of my relationship."
"So that's it!" Wang Yueying suddenly sneered softly, "So the master is going to let Zhou Pingjun become an official in the court and inherit the master's mantle?"
Tang Yi was drinking tea, and when he heard this, he choked and coughed continuously. Wang Yueying turned his head and didn't even bother to look at him.
After a long time, Tang Yi recovered. He was a little frightened at first, but after all, he was an old fried dough. He quickly recovered from calmness and smiled and said, "Madam, what does this mean? I don't understand it for my husband."
"Hmph, don't pretend to be confused in front of me." Wang Yueying glared at him fiercely, "Do you think I am a jealous person and cannot accommodate things? So, the matter between you and Sister Zhou is to hide it from me?"
The secret that had been hidden for many years was exposed at once, and Tang Yi could not calm down. His face turned red and he coughed for more than twenty times.
“It’s not what you think.”
"Then I want to know, what exactly is it like?"
Tang Yi sighed and confessed to leniently, "Okay, let me be honest, it was in the 45th year of Jiajing that I went to the Southeast to be the governor of Suzhou, and to solve Xu Jie's property. At that time, I couldn't do without the help of the transportation bank, so..."
"So you got together with Sister Zhou?" Wang Yueying was so angry that her face turned pale, "Tang Yi, Tang Yi, you and Sister Zhou knew each other earlier than us. She is such an amazing female god of wealth. You cherish each other, I don't blame you! But the child is teenager, why should I hide it from me? After all, I am also a big wife of the Tang family. What can I do if I let me see the child? Can I eat him? Who do you think of me as?"
Wang Yueying became more and more angry as she spoke, and tears flowed down.
Tang Yi was at a loss and hurried over and hugged his wife in his arms.
"You heard me finish my words. Actually, I had wanted to bring them to our house for a long time, but..."
"But what?" Wang Yueying raised her head and said angrily: "Do you think Sister Zhou is old, or do you think she has ever betrothed someone?"
"None of them!" Tang Yi smiled bitterly, "It's your sister Zhou who doesn't like me."
Wang Yueying's face sank and said in disbelief: "You lied to me! Even if Sister Zhou is arrogant and arrogant, she doesn't even look down on you. What else do she want to find?"
Tang Yi was amused and crying, "You treat your man as a treasure, but your sister Zhou doesn't think so. In fact, it's also my fault. She participated in the plan to deal with the Jin Party back then. Later, she found me and told me that she hoped that the child could be safe and stable. After ordinary people passed through the whole life, once they entered the Tang family, they had to shoulder the responsibility and would never be at peace. Her heart was on the child, and I hope I could forgive her..."
Wang Yueying also remembered that Zhou Qinyun had indeed arrived at the Tang family and was scared away later. Wang Yueying didn't think what was going on, but now she figured it out. It turned out that Zhou Qinyun had an objection to Tang Yi, thinking that he was too sinister and too deep to plot, so she didn't even enter the Tang family's door!
Wang Yueying was sympathetic to Zhou Qinyun just now, but in a blink of an eye she became angry. The more she thought about it, the more she felt that Tang Yi was at a loss. She lost a son to Zhou Qinyun, and the loss was a huge!
"Okay, she bullies our Tang family, isn't she? You can't hide your face, I don't care. No, I'll go find her now."
Tang Yi, this knight, "What identity do you use to find her?"
"Is the child's legitimate mother still okay? I have to take the child back and let her cry at home!" After Wang Yueying said that, she also laughed. Obviously, she just said that she didn't really want to do it.
"Actually, people don't know that the child is a member of the Tang family, and perhaps it is also a blessing for him."
Tang Yi grinned, "Madam, how lucky I am!"
"Hmph, I'll tell you, I don't care about the past. If I dare to mess with you again, I'll see if I don't settle the score with you!" Wang Yueying warned fiercely.
...
The day of accompanying Wanli to commemorate the Longqing Festival has arrived. The wind is bright and the sun is shining. When it comes to the tomb, Wanli burns incense and cries bitterly, and the scene is very good.
Tang Yi twisted a stick of incense and respectfully inserted it in front of the statue.
Since the beginning of Tianshou Mountain, Tang Yi has been worried. He is the same age as Longqing. One has been alive for almost ten years, while the other is still controlling the country. Tang Yi always feels a little guilty towards Longqing, which is also the reason why he has always been tolerant of Wanli and has not killed everyone.
I hope you can know how to advance and retreat, and don’t force me to take action!
Tang Yi withdrew his gaze, lowered the curtain of the car, closed his eyes and pondered.
Just as the carriage was walking forward, someone suddenly shouted, and then a black thing rolled down next to the carriage. Tang Yi's coachman was undergoing strict training. When he saw the things flying, he did not hesitate and drove the carriage forward.
When the carriage ran out less than ten steps, there was a loud bang, and the splashing shrapnel fell on the carriage.
"There are assassins!"
The guards roared in an instant and rushed towards the direction of the bomb drop.
In a pine forest, a young officer was standing upright with a knife in his arms. People from all directions rushed over, but he could no longer run away.
"Put down your weapons quickly and surrender!"
"Hahaha!" This guy suddenly burst into laughter, making people shudder, "Bo Lang's attack is to eliminate the thieves in Tang! He will repay the lord with one life, and he will die without regrets!"
After he finished speaking, he suddenly raised the knife in his hand and wiped it against his neck. Blood spurted out. The guy squeezed out a ugly smile and fell straight to the ground.
