My Sisters Excel in Both Literary and Martial Arts - Chapter 269

[Chapter 266: Camp (the fifth update is about Nan Yi, the helmsman)]

While the two people outside the door were talking, Wang Yingqiu was also introducing Jing Zhe in the room.

The burly man known as “Yang Changshi”, whose surname was Yang and whose given name was Zhaoyang, was the chief historian of the Duke of Wei. With a fourth-rank official position, he was considered one of Duke Wei’s confidants.

The Duke of Wei, named Yang Feng, was of the same rank as the Duke of Protector. He was the two military generals with the highest qualifications and the highest official positions in Anguo.

Although they are both military commanders, they seem to be inseparable from each other, and have often given each other a lot of stumbling blocks in private.

The people of Duke Protector and Duke Yu came to Wuxian Garden at the same time, and their purpose was obvious, so they would naturally confront each other in a tit-for-tat manner.

“Bah, Mr. Yu, if I call you “General Yu”, you think highly of you, and you’re going to slap your nose in your face?”

“Surnamed Yang, you think I’m giving you face by calling you “Chang Shi,” don’t you? “You think I’m afraid of you?”

“…”

Yu Haixing stood aside and pulled Yu Zecheng awkwardly.

“General Yu, on this street, pay attention to the impact!”

On the roadside, people were already looking over.

Yu Zecheng sneered, put his hands behind his back, stopped talking but did not leave, as if waiting to see Yang Zhaoyang’s joke.

Yang Zhaoyang stopped paying attention to him and went directly into the hall.

When he saw Jing Zhe, he immediately held up his hands and said, “This must be Mr. Jing Zhe, right? I am Yang Zhaoyang, the chief minister of the Duke of Wei Kingdom! I am very happy to meet Mr. Jing!”

“Yang Changshi, you’re welcome. , How could I dare to have Yang Changshi praise me so much?”

Then Jing Zhe asked: “It’s just that I have never seen Yang Changshi before, so how did Yang Changshi recognize me?”

Yang Zhaoyang laughed. Laughing: “Although I have never met Mr. Jing, his reputation is very well known. I heard from people that Mr. Jing is not only talented and knowledgeable, but also handsome and handsome. No one in Jingzhou City can surpass him.” Right, so when I first saw Mr. Jing, I was shocked and thought it must be you!”

I have to say that what this tall, rough-looking man said was very helpful. Jing Zhe After listening happily, he smiled and waved his hands and said, “Well, Yang Changshi is good, Yang Changshi has really good taste!”

“…”

Yang Zhaoyang was stunned for a moment, and then laughed honestly.

Damn it, you sycophant!

Seeing that Yang Zhaoyang’s operation won Jing Zhe’s praise, Yu Zecheng complained at first, and then regretted it a little. If he had known that I had just patted him!

“I wonder why Yang Changshi came to see me?”

Jing Zhe asked the same question after he finished laughing.

“Mr. Jing, I have invited you to a banquet at Duke Wei’s mansion on the orders of our Duke Wei!”

“You fart!”

As soon as he finished speaking, Yu Zecheng shouted.

“Ten days ago, Duke Wei Guo left for Jinxi. He will not be able to come back until after the competition between the four sects at the earliest. But you said that Duke Wei Guo invited Mr. Jing to the banquet. Who are you kidding?”

Yu Zecheng finally found out. If you find a loophole, start working directly.

Yang Zhaoyang glanced at him and ignored him.

“Mr. Jing, our Duke is indeed in the west of Jin, but he has also heard about the name of the young master, so Fei Ge sent a message asking me to first invite Mr. Jing to be a guest at Duke Wei’s house, and then formally invite Mr. Jing when he comes back. Young Master, come over!”

I have to say that in terms of speaking, this Yang Changshi can talk more than General Yu.

Why did you invite Jing Zhe for no reason?

He just wanted to draw him into the camp, which was exactly the same as Yu Zecheng’s idea, but he didn’t say it directly, and expressed his kindness tactfully, which made people feel more comfortable.

But Jing Zhe still declined the kindness and told Yang Zhaoyang what he had just said to Ze Cheng.

Yang Zhaoyang didn’t show any disappointment after hearing this. Instead, he said with a smile: “Since Mr. Jing has something to do, it can only be done next time. If Mr. Jing is free, he can go directly to Duke Wei’s Mansion. We, Wei, will The door of the Duke’s mansion is always open to Mr. Jing!”

The last sentence was the key point, which showed the purpose of his trip. Jing Zhe just smiled and did not answer.

Choose a side?

He doesn’t want to do this, because if he does so, he will always be someone else’s pawn.

He wants to form his own camp and not depend on anyone!

After a few more casual words, Yang Zhaoyang was ready to leave.

Suddenly, another middle-aged man of moderate build walked in from the door. He was wearing a brocade robe. Different from the military aura of Yang Zhaoyang and Yu Zecheng, this man actually had a bookish look on his face.

“Ah, Wuxianyuan is really lively today!”

It was obvious that this person knew Yang Zhaoyang and Yu Zecheng.

“Are Yang Changshi and General Yu here?”

He then smiled.

“Hey, Magistrate Li is here?”

“Prefect Li has just taken office. Could it be that he came to pay a private visit in private?”

Yang Zhaoyang and Yu Zecheng each said harsh words.

Yang Zhaoyang and Yu Zecheng hurt each other because they were each their own masters, but when facing civilian officials, their positions became the same camp of military commanders, and they naturally shared the same hatred.

Wang Yingqiu introduced to Jing Zhe in a low voice that this person was Li Haoyun, the newly appointed magistrate of Jingzhou. He was originally a guest minister in the Taishi Mansion. This time, thanks to Jing Zhe, Wu De was brought down. There was also the Taishi Hao Junguang. and the prince’s recommendation, so Li Haoyun could take up the post of Jingzhou magistrate.

After listening to Wang Yingqiu’s introduction, Jing Zhe had a certain understanding of the existing factions in Anguo’s court.

Above the Anguo court, there were five first-rank officials, two military officers and three civil servants. The second military commanders were Duke Yu Sheng and Duke Wei Yang Feng. The third military officers were Taishi Hao Junguang, Taifu Bai Qingyuan and Prime Minister Zhu Tong.

Among them, the camp is more obvious.

The first is Prime Minister Zhu Tong, a neutral faction.

Because Grand Master Hao Junguang was the teacher of Prince Su Moyan, the line of Grand Masters was actually the Donggong Sect, assisting the Prince.

Taifu Bai Qingyuan is the teacher of King Xiang Su Mowu, so the Taifu camp is the King Xiang camp.

As for the Duke of Wei and the Duke of Protector, they hold most of the military power in Anguo. They seem to perform their own duties and form separate camps, loyally assisting Anguo.

However, there are undercurrents surging under these five camps. For example, who is supported by King Jin and which sect they are attached to? These are more complicated, and the real power held by these camps is very large. This is also a headache for Emperor An. , no one can be offended, and no one can be deliberately pleased with.

Jing Zhe shook his head after hearing this. It seemed that no matter when he was an official or working, those who were incompetent were secondary, and the most important thing was to stand in line.

If you stand on the wrong side, you will be doomed.

If you stand in the right position, you will be able to rise to the top.
