Chapter 126 Ding Qingpi

Li Xia slept in the guest room of Guanchao Bieyuan.

Ding Ba lay on the crack of the door and took a look in, his eyes were full of disbelief.

"This...he really fell asleep?"

"Dog hozen."

Wang Geng and Feng Zhongzheng squatted in the courtyard dejectedly, cursing in unison.

Ding Ba, a young man, couldn't compete with these two guards at all, but today the three of them were beaten together, but they were a lot more friendly, so they leaned over to talk.

"Brother, tell me, how can he fall asleep?"

Feng Zhong raised his head and glanced at the dozen or so guards who were surrounding the guest room, and said: "The yamen have given orders, and we will not move him."

"Why didn't the yamen make this dog hozen?"

"How do I know? But is this person really not afraid?"

Feng Zhong spat and scolded: "Who in Lin'an City is not afraid of us? I have never seen such a killer."

Wang Geng's eyes were uncertain, and he suddenly said, "I have an idea."

"What?"

"Please ask the yamen to call a lady and put this kid to sleep."

"What?" Ding Ba's eyes widened, and he said in shock, "Is there such a good thing?! This, this, this..."

Wang Geng slapped him hard on the head, cursing: "Shut up, what's the matter with you, you fucking know nothing."

Feng Zhong seemed to understand, and said: "How about... I'll go and sleep him?"

Wang Geng shook his head and said: "That's not the case, I'm afraid that if Ah Lang wants to use this hozen, he needs to subdue him."

While speaking, he stood up and said to Ding Dagou who was standing at the door with his hands behind his back: "Butler Ding, where's the office?"

"gone."

"Leaving? But this..."

"Just keep an eye on the courtyard." Ding Dagou said lightly, "Don't come up with bad ideas, and think you are not stupid enough in the eyes of the yamen?"

Wang Geng felt very sorry.

But he also understands that when Ya Nei is gone, it is very likely that Alang is coming.

"Stop squatting." He kicked Feng Zhong, stood up straight with his hands behind his back, and guarded Li Xia's guest room...

~~
When Li Xia woke up, he opened his eyes and saw a terrible blue old face.

Presumably this is Ding Daquan.

Standing up again, there were still a few guards and subordinates standing in the room, but all of them lowered their heads.

Seeing that Li Xia woke up, Ding Daquan chuckled, walked away from the bed with his hands behind his back, and said slowly: "You are so brave, you dare to sleep soundly in the old man's other courtyard."

Li Xia said: "Uncle Xie Fang wants to kill me. I'm afraid there is no safer place in Lin'an City than Ding Shu's house."

Ding Daquan stroked his long beard and smiled contemptuously.

He is 65 years old, old and thin, and looks completely different from Cheng Yuanfeng and Jia Sidao.

Li Xia only looked at his white hair, and suddenly understood why he was attached to the eunuch.

Cheng Yuanfeng was a Jinshi at the age of 29, and became a prime minister at the age of 57; Jia Sidao was a Jinshi at the age of 25, and became a minister at the age of 41.However, Ding Daquan only became a Jinshi at the age of 48. If he didn't take some shortcuts, he might not be a high-ranking official for the rest of his life.

It's not that Li Xia agrees with Ding Daquan, it's just that he feels more and more...you must work hard when you are young.

"You dare to call this old man by his name behind your back, but you dare not in person?" Ding Daquan said.

"It's just respect for the elderly."

"What about the information?" Ding Daquan asked.

"I'll put it elsewhere." Li Xia said: "The conditions are negotiated, and it will naturally be handed over."

"Talk about the conditions."

Li Xia turned his head to look at the sky, it was only noon, and he could tell that Ding Daquan had just come after the court.

"Release Lin Zi and Liu Jinsuo; rescue Nie Zhongyou; protect the safety of us; give me an official position as an independent leader in Shu."

Ding Daquan said, "That's all?"

"that's it."

"The old man promises you, hand over the information, and testify against Uncle Xie Fang in front of the emperor tomorrow."

"it is good."

"How to do it, the old man's staff will discuss with you."

"it is good."

The old and the young looked at each other, and they were all silent for a while.

It was settled, and a little too smoothly.

So far, Li Xia has been in contact with several magistrates of the current dynasty, and probably understands why the world is not ashamed of Ding Daquan.

Although Cheng Yuanfeng is not good at political strategy, he is a decent person, abides by the rules, and does things with a strict eye; although Uncle Xie Fang is a peacemaker, he has a policy of governing the country, upholds political ideas, and maybe he really loves the people; With the Southwest War...

Only this Ding Daquan has no bottom line or principles in his eyes.

He didn't even ask what intelligence was and what it was useful for; he didn't even ask whether Li Xia was suitable to be an official.

He only cares about bringing down Uncle Xie Fang and worshiping his phase.

What's ridiculous is that only in this matter, Li Xia is the most consistent with this treacherous position.

……

As far as Ding Daquan is concerned, there is no need to talk to Li Xia anymore after talking here.

Li Xia only appeared to be a rare commodity because it coincided with his meeting. Normally, he was a majestic prime minister, and he didn't care about the need for a young man at all.

Dan Ding Daquan took two steps, but still asked: "Did you reach an agreement with Jia Shixian last night?"

"Yes, he is unwilling to rescue the person I want."

Ding Daquan said: "This old man is different from him. The old man only needs to overthrow Uncle Xie Fang, and then he can become Prime Minister on the Left. He has to overthrow Cheng Yuanfeng again, and he can barely become Prime Minister on the Right."

"Yes."

"He doesn't dare to offend the old man, he can't save anyone."

"Yes." Li Xia said, "So we can't reach an agreement."

Ding Daquan asked again: "How did you leave Jia's mansion?"

"I told Jia Sidao that I wanted to join Ding Shuxiang, and he agreed."

"is it?"

Li Xia said: "He also asked me to tell Prime Minister Ding Shu that the supervisory censor Hong Tianxi belongs to him."

Ding Daquan smiled, his smile was sinister, but he knew it in his heart.

"With such a great gift, what is Jia Shixian asking for?"

"What does Ding Shuxiang think?"

"How dare Lizi behave in front of this old man?" Ding Daquan snorted coldly, "I don't care who is the right minister, Cheng Yuanfeng, Ma Tianji, Jia Sidao, whoever is more obedient can be the right minister..."

Li Xia suddenly interrupted Ding Daquan, saying: "Jia Sidao said that to overthrow Xie and Cheng, he will be the right minister at most, and if he overthrows you, he will have the chance to be the sole chancellor."

Ding Daquan's blue face was completely frozen.

He couldn't believe that a 16-year-old Lizi could speak so boldly in front of him.

However, Li Xia continued to speak.

"Jia Sidao also said, now that the holy family is with you, I can't bring you down. Let me hang around you, deceive you, find a chance to get a real handle, and deal with you later."

"What did you say?"

"Jia Sidao didn't lose anything by doing this. Anyway, it was his warrant that went north to get the information, and he deserves a share of the credit. It's nothing more than taking action against Cheng Yuanfeng sooner or later. Instead of finding a useless right-hand man who works under your command , it's better to gamble big, the so-called 'win all the autumn insects' solo skills', he has patience and ambition..."

Ding Daquan was speechless for a long time.

Suddenly, he clapped his hands and laughed.

"Haha, what a good Jia Shixian, the prodigal son raised by the maidservant, he is a little bit courageous."

Li Xia couldn't tell that Ding Daquan was praising Jia Sidao or scolding him, but he saw that the shadow on Ding Daquan's blue face had disappeared, as if he was very happy.

"It's okay, it's okay, Jia Shixian is too young, let him suffer... don't pay attention to him." Ding Daquan asked Li Xia: "It's you, why did you tell this old man?"

Li Xia said: "I have self-knowledge. This time is a critical moment for chance and coincidence to get involved in the phase dispute. Otherwise, I will be nothing more than an ant in front of you, and I can be crushed to death at any time. I am really doing it to be a spy by Ding Shuxiang's side. No, so tell the truth."

Ding Daquan showed that chilling smile again, and said, "Anzhi, is it because you and Jia Shixian are in cahoots, false and true, to deceive the old man?"
