Chapter 251 Disagreement
Speaking of this topic, Tan Weishi sighed and said, "For the sake of that little brother who is not very close."
The cause of the matter was not complicated. It was on the way. At a banquet, Lian Fei Chang Ling asked the young Tan Weizai to write a poem with a slight voice. The little guy's face turned red, so he forced it to write one. In fact, for a child, even if he could force it to be able to force it to be a song, it was already very amazing. Tan Weishi originally thought that Tan Weizai was really amazing. But what happened at the banquet soon began to make her feel disgusted. The child's immature work was immediately touted by some people as a masterpiece, and the little bit of talent that the child might have was immediately expanded. It would be fine if the sourness present was so tormented, but someone actually thought of Tan Weishi's identity as a famous cultural sponsor and a famous cultural critic and asked her opinion.
"If the training is done properly, you may not be able to write famous works in the future." She said very pertinently. In fact, this sentence has given you a lot of face, but unexpectedly, this sentence instantly made the whole scene cold. Tan Weishi's sentence partially affirmed the IQ of Tan Weizai, the little brother, and the successful children's education so far. That's all, it's far from the flattery that Chang Ling likes.
If this is the case, it would be fine. A famous Chunnan scholar who wanted to please Chang Ling wanted to persuade Tan Weishi, making her feel that poetry was excellent. Unexpectedly, Tan Weishi, who was a little annoyed, said in front of everyone on the table: "I naturally like my little brother, but except for the family dinners that we Tan family do not think are the same as you, I have never been close to Weizai. I am not you, there is a need to flatter. Moreover, the child is so annoying that I don't want me to tell lies and flatter."
This sentence undoubtedly comes with negative effects such as range petrification, slowing down, dizziness, etc., and the already a bit of a cold scene immediately cooled down below zero. After saying this, Tan Weishi stood up indifferently and left the banquet, and turned around and summoned the troupe and the young scholars to leave the brigade and take the lead. The conflict was basically like this.
Ye Tao was speechless about this situation. Tan Weishi didn't say a lie.
Concubine Lian Chang Ling was not a likable character. She had never married because of her bad personality. In the end, she became a bargaining chip in the two countries' alliance, and finally had a good home. Her own enjoyment of Jinguyuan did make her identity a little unusual, and on the surface she was indeed quite favored by Tan Xiaopei. But unlike Queen Zhuo Xiu, who ignored any political affairs, Concubine Lian liked to ask about various things and asked for her officials, if she had enough sincerity,
It is indeed possible to let her blow the wind beside her pillow. As for her way of educating Tan Weizai, she was almost isolated from the entire family, and purely according to her own ideas, regardless of the harmonious atmosphere of the Tan family, and the tradition of the Tan family that has always indulged children to play happily, she kept educating Tan Weizai on her own. These behaviors made the Tan brothers and sisters very dissatisfied. Now Tan Weishi openly refused to give Chang Ling face. She completely tore her face and exposed the contradictions to everyone.
Chang Ling knew that no matter whether it was status or popularity, she could not compare with Tan Weishi, so she naturally didn't dare to do anything. Afterwards, she could only smash things.
Ye Tao laughed and said, "When I'm waiting for the visit to relatives, I'm afraid the group of sour scholars in Chunnan will not be so tangled, right?"
Tan Weishi shook his head and said, "No. What they asked us for is too big this time. I just found out that Chunnan might have to counterattack Xiling and need Dongping to provide a large number of weapons, crossbows, oil bombs, horses, etc. It seems that we also need to send some cavalry generals to help Chunnan bring the cavalry army up as soon as possible. For allies, there is a lot of money between Shuosongkou. Moreover, it should be different if we don't work hard and be serious and responsible when training the army. Otherwise, we have sent a lot of soldiers to help Chunnan, so why do we have to mention this matter specifically?"
Ye Tao's brows became entangled and asked, "Is this news true?"
Tan Weishi shook his head and said, "It was the student named... the Imperial College in charge of Qu Ge who was drinking. Qu Ge came to me to report the matter, and I asked the people from the Intelligence Bureau to investigate it. However, who from the Intelligence Bureau said that there had been similar news for this matter, so this time, an official of sufficient level was needed to be fully responsible for the negotiations. Wouldn't that be called you? Don't you know?"
"I don't know..." Ye Tao was stunned, "No one has ever told me."
Tan Weishi suddenly realized and said, "No wonder the more you embarrass the Chunnan delegation, the happier your father is. It turns out that he is planning to make them think you are not easy to deal with, have a stubborn and weird temper, so that it will be easier to raise the price during negotiations... The father is really skilled in doing such things. Don't worry. I guess the documents will come soon."
"I have a stubborn and weird temper? It's hard to deal with?" Ye Tao said aggrievedly. Then he shouted and said, "It's unfair!"
Hahahaha... Tan Weishi and Dai Qiuyan hugged each other and laughed.
However, the news revealed by Tan Weishi seemed to have a reasonable and reliable point. At least Ye Tao himself did not doubt the intention of His Majesty to use him as a cow or a horse. Since there were enough people in his hands, Ye Tao quietly ordered and began to inquire about the various situations in Yuhang. Although it was a bit of a sudden cram, he might be able to see something from the clues.
As expected, the guys from the special camp quickly found the movements of several important figures in Yuhang. Originally, Ye Tao was still wondering why Chang Hongquan left Lian Fei and his party and returned to Yuhang first but didn't come to find him. There was no further discussion except for a hurry to touch and say goodbye. It turned out that as soon as Chang Hongquan returned to Yuhang, he was summoned by the Lord of Chunnan and stayed in the palace for several consecutive days, as if there were major matters in negotiations. And just yesterday morning, General Chen Xujing, the only one in Chunnan who could be called a cavalry general, came to Yuhang very low-key. In the afternoon
He was summoned into the palace. At the same time, there are many people with special status who have entered and left the palace in the past few days. Although they can't get any important situation from those servants with low status, it is impossible to know what these people are discussing, but being able to get these people together will definitely not discuss the arrangements for Lian Fei to visit her relatives. It is like if Tan Xiaopei summoned Zhuo Mang, Chi Xianping, Xu Jingtian and others for several days in Danyang, everyone's reaction would inevitably be whether the war would start soon. Even if these people really gathered a table of mahjong for entertainment, many people would not believe it if it was spread.
"Sir," just as Ye Tao was thinking about how large-scale operations Chunnan might have, what kind of cooperation should be needed from Dongping, and how much time would it take to quietly arrange the matter without Xiling knowing it as much as possible and then suddenly started, Feng Zi suddenly came to Ye Tao and asked with some interest: "There will be a banquet tonight. I wonder if you have time to see it?"
"Banquet?" Ye Tao looked at Feng Zi slantedly. He knew that things would never be that simple. Feng Zi's temperament was very similar to him, and he kept away from all kinds of banquets. It was possible that Feng Zi would mention them specifically in front of him, and it was obvious that the banquet he suggested to attend was definitely not unusual.
"Yes. Song Miao, Dayan, will entertain guests at the mansion tonight, nominally for his grandson to celebrate his birthday at the age of three. Dayan sent someone to send a post, and the visitor also specifically stated that among the guests were Ju Xianwang, Chen Xujing and others. Although Mr. Guishan, Jiang Yan, was not a guest at the banquet, he would attend the banquet halfway." Feng Zi said with a smile.
"Who is this Mr. Guishan?" Ye Tao asked in confusion.
"This..." Feng Zi didn't expect Ye Tao didn't know Jiang Yan, and he didn't know how to explain it for a while. "Sir, have you prepared a very comprehensive document on Chunnan before departure? Or did you ask the Intelligence Bureau to send it to you, why haven't you read it?"
Ye Tao replied without any shame: "It is one thing to be prepared, whether it is useful, and whether it has time to read is another."
Feng Zi sighed and introduced: "Mr. Guishan Jiang Yan is the good friend of the current Chunnan Lord who was still the prince of the prince, and he made in a very good friend of the son of Mr. Qianshan Jiang Xu. After Jiang Xu's death, Jiang Yan was always taken care of by the Chunnan Lord, and he was outstanding. Eleven years ago, Jiang Yan participated in the Chunnan Imperial Examination Ceremony with the pseudonym Yan Jiang, and he won the top scorer and was recognized by the Chunnan Lord during the palace examination. The Chunnan Lord was originally planning to use this Jiangyan, but this guy was in poor health and was very heavy for him to be an official. Now, he is almost the most respected strategist of the Chunnan Lord. He rarely makes any suggestions, but he always says nothing, and almost nothing is not adopted. No one else cares. In fact, this banquet was so spectacularly high because of Jiang Yan's attendance."
"What do you mean is this a meeting under the table? Lord Chunnan wants to explore my bottom?" After Feng Zi said this, Ye Tao also understood.
Feng Zi shrugged and said, "It should be so. After all, whether it is adults or Princess Xiu, most of the key figures of the younger generation of Dongping do not agree with Chunnan, and have always had a lot of remarks about the marriage and alliance with Chunnan. The incident of Princess Xiu and Concubine Lian must have reached the ears of the Lord Chunnan. Before he could decide what he could reach, he had to know whether it was valuable to talk to you." Suddenly, Feng Zi was also
He smiled and continued, "Actually, the Lord of Chunnan is too worried. As long as there is a need for cooperation between countries, even if there is an irreconcilable hatred, you can sit together and talk. Besides, Ye Zhengluo, you are just disliked by Concubine Lian. In addition, the youngest daughter of Duke Dayan is Song Xiangjun, the number one beauty in Chunnan. It is said that he almost occupied Concubine Lian's current position back then. Just to pay attention to the beauty, there is a lot to go to the banquet."
