Jiang Cheng was a little puzzled hearing this, but he vaguely felt that he had touched a certain key point, and he quickly pondered it in his mind.

Pangban didn’t sell off, and went on to say: “The previous battles with Barbarian Race are different from the timing of this time.”

“You mean this time we advance Did you discover and force the Barbarian Race to act?”

“no no no, Jiang Cheng, we talked about the situation in the imperial city, do you remember?”

“My lord, you are talking about the seven princes…”

“Yes. Your Majesty has been letting the princes continue for the past two years, and now each prince has his own That group of forces, what do you think Your Majesty is doing this way?” Pang Ban immediately awakened.

“Do you mean Your Majesty will hand over the implementation of the money and food austerity strategy to the prince? This…” Jiang Cheng wanted to say “this is not appropriate” but in the end he still held back Living.

Pang Ban did not explain the rationality to Jiang Cheng, let alone tell Jiang Cheng that the emperor had been taking a powerful medicine that was harmful to him. Although no news has been spread, Pang Ban knows that the emperor’s time is running out. This can also be proved by Pang Ban’s perception of the chaotic atmosphere and soul fluctuations on the emperor’s body.

If you can’t live for long, you will naturally be anxious in doing things. And it happened that this critical moment encountered the military affairs, two-pronged, although risky, but more able to test the one who is most capable.

After Pang Ban’s suggestion, Jiang Cheng understood it, but he was not as determined as Pang Ban.

“You don’t have to think too much. Your Majesty’s idea is not something we should think about. Do your own thing, watch more recently and move less. Stop your hands and stop your mouth. Keep your eyes on the cities under the rule, and don’t stare at the imperial city. We Profound Pure Guard can’t touch this kind of thing.”

“Please rest assured, your subordinates must follow the instructions of the adults, never I’ll get involved in these things.”

Pang spotted nodded, he was fairly assured of Jiang Cheng, Jingdong and Jingbei Zhenfu made him more trustworthy, and they always followed him. of. Only Jingnan town caregiver Liao Chengfeng and Pangban became more and more uncertain, and now he has to look at it again.

“But you still have to keep them turning on the black water side. The eyes on our face on the imperial city side are not suitable for staring, but the eyes in our hearts should be paid close attention. Especially those Officials, including the princes, are watching as closely as you can. But at the same time, be careful not to be exposed. Understand?”

“Subordinates understand.”

Here Jiang Cheng took the order to leave, but Pang Ban took out the document that Jiang Cheng reported just now and read it carefully.

Different from what he said to Jiang Cheng just now, the churn in his heart when Pang Ban saw the document in his hand was far more violent than what he had just shown in front of Jiang Cheng.

What is Bai Changqing afraid of? This is critical.

Bai Changqing is a scholar, and his power and status can be said to be the people of the cream of the crop in the old Jing Dynasty. How many people besides the emperor can make him afraid?

He may be counted as one Pangban, and Yang Yansi can be counted as one if he is still in power. The rest… Ye Lansheng will count as well, right? And just this time Bai Changqing was obviously avoiding Ye Lansheng, a figure he had been looking forward to for many years.

Although Pang Ban has seldom spoken in the temple for many years, his eyes are always open and his ears are always listening. He still remembers that Bai Changqing and the five ministries except the Ministry of War have been tightly surrounded by Ye Lansheng. By their side, the scenes of them advancing and retreating together have happened countless times, and this has made the civil official group strong in the temple for decades.

What happened that made Bai Changqing suddenly take the initiative to open the distance with Ye Lansheng? What needs to be self-protected regardless of Ye Lansheng’s reaction?

First of all, Pang Ban didn’t believe that Ye Lansheng would take the initiative to harm Bai Changqing, because there was no Liangzi who would tear his face between the two, regardless of personal relations or interests.

Secondly, Bai Changqing is not so stunned, impossible to make such an excessive reaction because of some things in the cloud and mist. He must be so eager to be sure that something will happen.

It’s definitely not a trivial matter, otherwise Bai Changqing wouldn’t be like that. But… what will it be?

After thinking about it for a long time, Pangban didn’t think of any possible joints. In the end, he could only put it down temporarily, and shouted outside the door: “Call Baimian over.”

There was a response from outside the door. Then a short time later, a middle age person in a white shirt came in by knocking on the door outside. It was the eyeliner captain under Pangban who had arranged for the man to stare at Shen Hao.

“My lord, are you looking for me?”

“en. Is there anything worth noting about Ye Lansheng recently?” Pang Ban said as he posted the copy of Jiang Chengbao The document was pushed in front of this person.

“In reply to the words of an adult, Ye Lansheng hasn’t done anything special recently. It’s just that he walks more frequently with the people below. They are all private meetings, and they all choose their respective residences. What are the details for the time being? I don’t know.” While answering, he took the paper and opened it and quickly looked at it.

After reading it, this person who Pangban called the white-faced said solemnly: “My lord, Bai Changqing has indeed rarely interacted with the officials in the temple recently. But that’s it, nothing else. The move. But this deduction is very interesting.”

“Hehe, don’t worry about it. This channel will not be given to you. I want you to pay attention to this matter too. Keep an eye on it. Those civil servants can’t let go of any trouble.”

“Subordinates understand.”

“In addition, what happened to the princes?”

In fact, his face is not white at all. On the contrary, his skin is dark, and he looks like a rough guy who often travels around. But “White Mian” was his former crooked name, and now there are only a few people who call him that way.

“My lord, the seven princes are now restless. After Your Majesty determined the direction of the military affairs to the south, they shifted their eyes from the civilian officials to the army. Now you can see the silhouettes of the guest official of the prince’s princes in the yamen related to the four major military governor’s houses. It’s just that I don’t know how many people were successfully persuaded by them.

In addition, there seem to be a few princes secretly. Privately expanded a lot of manpower, all in accordance with the “internal guard” standards. Many have almost reached 500 people.”

“hehe, none of them is someone who is easy to deal with. Who seems to be relatively weak at the moment?”

“In comparison, Seventh Prince Yang Shu recruited the weakest force. However, he was the strongest in terms of money. The “tea” data in the imperial merchants Our secret investigation found that he has already mastered it.”

Pangban shook the head: “There is no direct use of money. But being weak may not be a disadvantage, at least if Your Majesty wants to balance it. In this contest, I will first help to make up the strength gap between the princes to a similar level.”

White interview probingly asked: “You mean Seventh Prince will get big benefits. ?”

“en. It should be just recently.”
