After the immortal disappeared
Chapter 1523: Each with their own agenda
Because of this incident, Liang Zhushi and Yao Wang almost had a falling out.
Liang Zhushi looked thoughtful.
Yao Wang asked him for compensation, should he accept it or not?
Why do all the officials want to participate in the construction of the new city? The answer is nothing more than the four words "benefit distribution".
The so-called "assisting in the construction of Xilin Temple" is to give all the fat meat to Liang Xiaohao.
To put it more bluntly, it is to give all the profits to Liang Zhushi.
The construction of the temple and the donations from believers, how lucrative would that be?
Liang Zhushi pondered, and Xiao Zhushi did not dare to say anything.
The atmosphere in the imperial study was solemn.
Facing the goddess's earth walker, Yao Wang naturally had to show rare patience.
After a while, Liang Zhushi slowly raised his eyes and said in a deep voice: "Okay, let He Xiao finish the construction of the new city temple."
Anyway, he understood that Yao Wang did not intend to hand over He Xiao for the time being. It was meaningless for him to continue to entangle on this point.
Yao Wang smiled so much that his wrinkles were all opened: "Liang Zhushi has always been far-sighted!"
Even if he passed this level, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
"During this period, he'd better not offend again." After saying that, Liang Zhushi turned and left, followed by Xiao Zhushi.
Walking through Yuquan Palace, Xiao Zhushi also saw You and He under the corridor.
The two priests surrounded by the temple people were expressionless and looked straight ahead. As soon as Liang Zhushi approached, You Rongzhi stood up and lowered his hands, only He Lingchuan sat still and was as steady as a golden mountain, even smiling and waving: "You two, go slowly!"
You Rongzhi winked at him, but He Lingchuan ignored him.
He was a foreign businessman, and he had no awe for the goddess worshipped by the locals.
Liang Zhushi glanced at He Lingchuan indifferently.
This kid was not only careless, but even his eyes were full of provocation. It can be seen that he was very sure that Yao Wang would not sell him out.
Good, very good.
Xiao, the chief servant, said to He Lingchuan: "Build the temple well, and don't let the king down for his preference for you." He Lingchuan showed his big white teeth and smiled brightly: "Definitely, definitely." The two priests walked away immediately without looking back. Seeing this scene, You Rongzhi was too lazy to say anything more. In fact, He Xiao's fate had already been determined, and it would not change whether he offended the temple or not. What a pity, it's a pity for this amazing talent. After leaving the palace and getting on the car, Xiao, the chief servant, said bitterly: "The king protects the boy named He, and there will probably be no punishment." He Xiao is the most popular person in front of King Yao. Who in Tianshui City doesn't know it? But Xiao, the chief servant, didn't expect that He Xiao, relying on King Yao's support, dared to come to provoke the temple. "Look, after the temple is built, will the king really hand He Xiao over to us?" Liang, the chief servant, didn't say a word. He Xiao is the core figure in the construction of the new city. This huge project will take at least two years. In the next two years, King Yao will not replace him, otherwise it will make things difficult for himself and Tianshui City.
After the temple is built, King Yao will most likely find excuses to prevaricate. We can't take He Xiao away now, but can we do it when the time comes?
But even if Liang Zhushi is clear, he can't say it clearly, because he just agreed to King Yao's conditions.
This old guy is too cunning. He and He Xiao offended Miao Zhantian, but it was Liang Zhushi who compensated.
If you want to compensate the goddess, how much effort will it take? The goddess may not be satisfied.
In the final analysis, only human greed is the most specific and easiest to satisfy.
"Master, judging from the situation tonight, they have long set their sights on the Panjin Stone of Xilin Temple!" Thinking of his own temple, Xiao Zhushi's heart was bleeding, "He Xiao is not unrelated to the collapse of Xilin Temple!"
In order to build a new city, they actually put their plans on the temple! "Desperate" is too light to describe it!
Envoy Liang felt something was wrong: "How dare you be so disrespectful to the Lord God?"
Is King Yao crazy? Building a new city is going to be a big deal, how dare he make the goddess angry?
Xiao's servant scowled: "Since He Xiao built Youhu Villa, everything they did was disrespectful. No, no, they started to make excuses and neglect the goddess even earlier!"
Confronting on the spot like today, Qingyang is actually an old hand. Envoy Liang had thought of her a long time ago, but Qingyang had proposed it to Miao Zhantian before, and the goddess was still considering it.
Under this situation, Envoy Liang couldn't rashly ask her to come forward.
...
Afterwards, King Yao called You He and the others in and scolded them.
He Lingchuan knew that this was an indispensable step, so he did not respond to the scolding, and only asked one question at the end:
"So, should the Huanbiao be demolished?"
"What to demolish?" Yao Wang glared, "Keep it!"
Liang Zhushi did not mention it again, and of course he was happy not to say it.
Both sides did not talk about it, which meant that the Huanbiao did not need to be demolished.
"Your Majesty Yingrui!" The free flattery was offered.
He Lingchuan knew that he had won a great victory tonight.
After scolding and venting his anger, Yao Wang pointed at the door of the study and said unhappily: "Get out!"
He Xiao walked away leisurely, and You Rongzhi continued to stay.
Yao Wang did not even mention the punishment for He Xiao.
How to punish?
Imprisonment? He Xiao was running in and out of the east expansion project, busy inside and outside, how could Yao Wang restrict his movements? Besides, the 900 guards assigned to him were originally protective confinement for He Xiao.
Fine or donation? He is a foreign businessman and does not even have a formal title in the capital's eastward expansion project. He is just a "manager" and does not receive any salary. In fact, he is just working for King Yao for free.
Good fellow, he is working for free and has not received a penny here, and you still want him to lose money outside, right?
If the king of Yao does this, it is hard to guarantee that he will be unhappy.
If he is unhappy, the project in hand will easily go wrong. Today, there will be delays here, tomorrow there will be slowdowns there, and the day after tomorrow, the material inspection will fail again.
For such a large project, there are countless problems and frictions every day. He Xiao does not even need to find excuses, just let it develop. The progress of the project will naturally be greatly affected, and others can't say anything.
This island owner He has no family in Yao, and has no weaknesses. The king of Yao can only ask people to strictly investigate the illegal operation of Yangshan Chamber of Commerce to see if it has evaded taxes and falsified accounts, which will not hurt He Xiao.
After thinking about it, the king of Yao could not think of a good way to control He Xiao.
Anyway, the temple had been offended, and the King of Yao also compensated Liang, hoping that the capital's eastward expansion project would not have any more troubles and could be carried out smoothly. He had already asked him to collect the money.
The King of Yao understood that people with too strong abilities often have tempers and opinions. He blamed He Xiao and scolded him verbally to vent his anger, but it was not good to have any substantial punishment.
When he was tired of scolding, he would tell He Lingchuan to get out.
Next, the King of Yao wanted to find out the whole story from You Rongzhi.
You Rongzhi did not dare to hide it. After all, he was really kept in the dark from beginning to end about the dismantling and misappropriation of the stone materials of the Xilin Temple.
The King of Yao was speechless for a long time.
This means that He Xiao has a good control over the capital's eastward expansion project.
Dismantling stones and building Huanbiao are not things that can be done alone.
The terrible thing is that the officials and teams who completed these two things accepted He Xiao's instructions without any doubt or hesitation.
If the removal of objects from the Xilin Temple could be said to be authorized by King Yao, then the removal of the stone column heads of the Xilin Temple to repair the Huanbiao did not cause suspicion and hesitation among the officials.
What does this mean?
It means that the "authority" image established by He Xiao has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and they have developed a subconscious reaction to execute his orders without even thinking too much.
You Rongzhi's report was very straightforward. He could always feel the impulse and enthusiasm in the air during the project.
Except for the army, he had never had this experience in other organizations.
It's only been a month, and He Xiao has brought the ragtag team with ulterior motives to the feeling of the army?
This is too terrible.
King Yao does hope to have a team of efficient and capable officials who can fight hard battles, but the leader should not be an outsider!
His officials should not listen to a foreign businessman!
His team should not be at the mercy of an outsider!
If He Xiao can't be controlled, he should be killed as soon as possible after he is used.
You Rongzhi couldn't help asking, "My king, when Lord Liang left, his face wasn't looking good either."
Did this matter really just get over so easily? It didn't suit Lord Liang's temperament.
Yao Wang glanced at him, covered his mouth and yawned, "Go away, I'm sleepy."
Seeing the east was getting light, he was almost sixty years old, and he had to endure the night!
These people didn't save him any worries.
"Yes." You Rongzhi understood that Lord Liang's temper would not change, and the king probably made some compromises.
After leaving the palace, He Lingchuan boarded the carriage driven by Wanqi Feng and headed for the East Gate.
The three hundred guards behind immediately followed, with the sound of horse hooves. At this time, the sky was dawning, and the early-rising passers-by turned back to see the grand ceremony of Lord He's trip.
Sitting in his own carriage, He Lingchuan stretched his waist, put up a barrier, and suddenly laughed!
He destroyed the temple, misappropriated building materials, and pissed off the priests, but he was only scolded and left the palace in one piece.
It was so smooth that it was unimaginable!
"Ridiculous, absolutely ridiculous!" Mirror was also very happy, "Is this a pass?"
"Passed." He Lingchuan laughed proudly, "I thought the temple would invite Qingyang over, but it didn't, fortunately it didn't!"
He was quick-witted, but to be fair, his eloquence was just average, not even as good as Fu Liushan.
Qingyang has been in the court of Beijia for 150 or 60 years. What kind of criticism has he not seen? If she came to the imperial study to confront him, He Lingchuan was not sure that he could win her argument.
That scene would not be very good.
He Lingchuan also knew that the temple and Qingyang had always been in contact. This time, for some reason, the temple did not invite Qingyang to help.
A major mistake. Liang Zhushi probably regretted it, right?
Mirror was also amused: "Those two priests are not good at arguing, they are no match for you."
"As a servant of the gods, you usually recite the grace of the gods, you only need to obey the superiors and pressure the subordinates, you don't have to do so much." He Lingchuan put his hands behind his head.
