Ever since the dispute over the road at the entrance of Xianyang City, Cheng Jiao's advisers have had disagreements.
Cai Ze and Xiong Qi, who are hostile to each other, believe that since the new general Wang Jian is on good terms with Prince Zheng and the Meng family, and the Meng family is a staunch member of Lu Buwei's faction, Wang Jian must be from Prince Zheng's faction.
Cai Ze, however, firmly opposes this opinion, because in his opinion, Wang Jian could never be an ordinary minister who would follow Lu Buwei's sleeves.
Lu Buwei's mansion under the night sky has now been renamed as Wenxinhou Mansion. In the study, Bai Xiaosheng and Lu Buwei sat opposite each other, with only a candlelight dimly lighting the room.
"What did Wang Jian say?"Bai Xiaosheng's voice sounded in the study.
Lü Buwei stood at the desk, hands behind his back, and did not reply immediately. Not long ago, he arranged a banquet and personally sent an invitation to Wang Jian, but Wang Jian rejected it on the grounds of being unwell. Although Wang Jian was young and a military general, his political thoughts and awareness were no less than those old men who had been immersed in officialdom for decades.���The guest messenger.
There were footsteps in the dim study room. After a long time, Lu Buwei said lightly:"Wang Jian is very smart. He knows that with his current status as a general, he should not take sides or lean to the side. No matter who is appointed as the crown prince or ascends the throne, he will be respected. That's why he dares to be so arrogant! He refused the old man's kindness in every possible way."
Although he lost face on Wang Jian's side, Lu Buwei was not too angry, and even had some appreciation. Because when Wang Jian rejected him, he also rejected Yangquan Jun's solicitation.
Bai Xiaosheng whispered:"It's really smart. If I were him, I would do the same." Lu
Buwei's voice suddenly became sharp:"After the prince's exam, Prince Zheng is appointed as the crown prince, and then think of a way to win him over."
Bai Xiaosheng didn't expect him to be so confident in Ying Zheng. He was a little surprised and said:"Are you so confident that Prince Zheng will win?"
Lu Buwei seemed to look down on Cheng Jiao very much, and said bluntly:"Because Prince Zheng has an advantage, Cheng Jiao is far inferior to him."
"Oh...you mean." Bai Xiaosheng understood.
The two people in the study looked at each other and understood each other tacitly. They both appreciated each other's way of chatting, knowing but not saying it out loud. The conversation between smart people was so easy and effortless.
Bai Xiaosheng flipped through the previous volume of the case file. In fact, he had known the contents of the file for a long time, but he still pretended to be puzzled and frowned and said:"There is no problem with Wang Jian presiding over the military examination, but Cai Chi presided over the civil examination. Aren't you afraid that he will be partial?"
"He dares!?"
Who is Bai Xiaosheng? After hearing this, couldn't he not hear that Cai Ze had a tendency to give up Cheng Jiao and turn to Wang Zizheng? Even if not, his belief in Cheng Jiao had been shaken. After all, Yang Quanjun had disappointed him too much.
There was a fierce quarrel in the mansion of Prince Chengjiao. The two parties in the quarrel were naturally Yang Quanjun and Cai Ze. The content of the quarrel was naturally inseparable from the newly appointed general Wang Jian. Looking at the red-faced faces of both parties, you can know how fierce the quarrel was before.
Cai Ze glanced at Yang Quanjun with a trace of contempt and said,"A minister must be a loyal minister.
I am ordered by the king to be the prince's teacher.
I must select and absorb good talents for the prince's future great cause.
General Wang Jian was young, but he defeated the veteran Li Mu.
Looking at his recent actions, he knows how to advance and retreat, and he has real talent.
Although the Wang family is not as prominent as the Meng family, three generations of its ancestors and grandchildren have died loyally serving the country.
The prince should certainly accept such a minister and must not reject him because of the temporary anger of some people.
"
Yangquan Jun sneered,"Who is the prince Chengjiao arguing with at the gate of Xianyang? Don't forget the relationship between Wang Jian and Prince Zheng, and Lu Buwei. Wang Jian was promoted by Lu Buwei himself."
Cai Ze was so angry that his beard was shaking, and said,"Of course I remember, but I remember that there is only one master in Qin. Except for the king, you and I are slaves! As long as Prince Chengjiao is successfully established as the crown prince, the East Palace will be Wang Jian's future master!"
Cai Ze is not an old man with dementia who has no experience but age. Of course, he knows the power represented by Wang Jian, and the relationship between Wang Jian, Prince Zheng, and Lu Buwei. But strategically, he still believes that Prince Cheng Jiao cannot give up Wang Jian. Once he really gives up, it is equivalent to pushing Wang Jian to Prince Zheng.
Cheng Jiao, who was sitting in the main seat, sighed. In his heart, he also understood that Wang Jian must not be given up. Even if he cannot win him over, he must maintain good communication with him.
"The current situation is not to the point where Wang Jian is forced to take a stand. Cheng Jiao rubbed his temples and said with some annoyance,"After all, the most important thing at the moment is the 'Prince's Examination'. As long as this prince wins, everything will be fine."
"But Prince Zheng and Wang Jian are too close, Your Highness must be on guard!"Yangquan Jun still did not give up.
Cai Ze snorted coldly and said:"Yangquan Jun, don't forget that Wang Jian not only rejected Your Highness' invitation, but also rejected Lu Buwei's invitation."
"All right! Let's stop here." Cheng Jiao tried to smooth things over,"Brother Zheng and Wang Jian are close because they have been on the battlefield together. Don't talk nonsense about being on guard or not, that's too ridiculous."
This is the helplessness of the royal family. Obviously you are on guard against me and I am on guard against you. But no one can say anything verbally. Just like Bai Xiaosheng said, this life is really tiring!
"Your Highness, you seem to have misjudged one thing. Cai Ze said again
"What's the matter?" Cheng Jiao asked curiously.
"Many officials, including His Highness, attributed Wang Jian to Prince Zheng's faction because Wang Jian and Prince Zheng had fought on the battlefield, but who could prove this? Wang Jian rejected the invitations from both sides this time, in fact, he wanted to send a signal."Cai Ze calmly analyzed,"He, Wang Jian, does not want to get involved in the dispute over the crown prince. He will be loyal to whoever becomes the crown prince or the king in the future."
