Zhao Wei's nonsense had to make Kublai Khan pay attention to Shi Quan's secret report.

The two confirmed that the people's sentiments in the southern states may be quite serious as Zhao Wei said. But it is just serious...

It is not possible to let Kublai Khan connect the people's sentiment with the revenge of Wen Tianxiang.

Not to mention whether Zhao Wei’s words are true or false, what can I do with just an Ali Hague? If the people’s sentiment is really because of this little thing, then Kublai Khan will be easier to deal with...

He didn't even need to run Ali Hague. He immediately wrote a letter and wrote a private message to Ali Hague! The general meaning is: I have to rely on you retainers to conquer the country, but I still have to rely on you to maintain the mountains and rivers. Thank you so much for your hard work...

I know that it is not easy for Huguang, but I have to think about it for a while. Now that Jiangnan is in a state of slump and Huguang is hopeless, I hope The Hague knows my suffering and share my worries... hand over the privately hidden slaves and farmers to me! Otherwise, you will be chopped off your dog's head!

That's right!!

Kublai Khan didn't even cover up his concealment, and he cursed and asked for someone directly! Because he didn't have to be polite to him!

Ali Hague started with Kublai Khan's personal bodyguard and walked step by step to today. If you are polite to him, he will feel uncomfortable.

A few straightforward words make you look closer.

At this point, even if this matter has passed, Kublai Khan has no fuss, let alone a thorough investigation.

However, a seed was planted in my heart... a seed of the southern people's sentiment. Whether this seed of doubt can sprout and take root in the future depends on how Zhao Wei irrigates it.

Let go of this matter, but Kublai Khan still rumored that he was Liu Mengyan, and Wang Jiweng and others met him, but Zhao Yurui, who was traveling with Zhao Wei, was still discussing the issue of Wen Tianxiang's stay or not.

.....

———————

It seems that Zhao Wei has been busy for several days but has not achieved any results.

In fact, it was already an unexpected gain for Zhao Wei to get to this point that Kublai Khan wrote a letter to scold Ali Hague.

He knew that these words would be heard by Kublai Khan, but they were just passed on. He wanted to completely change Kublai Khan's judgment of the south, but he still had to put in another effort.

"Next, it depends on Mr...."

At night, Zhao Wei and Mr. Dieshan sat in the study to discuss tea and discuss matters, "Adan came to convey Emperor Yuan's intentions, but he didn't know what the teacher wanted, so he would do anything?"

Mr. Dieshan still looked kind and steady. "Emperor Yuan asked me to be willing to do so, but in fact he didn't have many choices. Even if you want to be able to help Your Highness, you must be reasonable, and that is, it is a good choice for the Hanlin Bachelor."

"Yeah..." Zhao Wei was a little disappointed after hearing this, "I would have liked the sir who could be admitted to the Ministry of Justice..."

Wen Tianxiang was imprisoned in the Ministry of Justice. If Xie Dieshan could be admitted to the Ministry of Justice, it would be much more convenient.

When Mr. Dieshan heard this, "Your Highness is anxious again... In fact, entering the Hanlin Academy is more useful to Your Highness than the Ministry of Justice."

"Oh?" Zhao Wei was puzzled, "Sir, please give me some advice."

"Then your Highness... Who is the Hanlin Chengzhi now?"

The full name of Hanlin Chengzhi is called the Hanlin Academy Bachelor Chengzhi, which is the first of the six Hanlin Bachelors. The position is equivalent to the Grand Secretary of Jixian Hall in the Tang and Song Dynasties. To put it bluntly, he is the inner minister and the emperor's personal secretary, who is in charge of confidential secret policies and drafted imperial edicts.

And the current Hanlin Chengzhi is Liu Mengyan.

Zhao Wei immediately reacted, "Sir, are you saying..."

"That's right." Mr. Dieshan smiled gently, "The six bachelors in the Hanlin Academy will not increase or decrease unless there is any special case. If I enter the Hanlin Academy, one of the six people will definitely be transferred out of the Hanlin."

"And with my qualifications and reputation as a Hanlin, even if I don't get the title of honor immediately, I will not be able to keep Mengyan's position..."

"And now, the status of the left and right prime ministers of Ahema, Boyan and others is stable, and they cannot be the prime minister when they leave Mengyan and leave Hanlin. The only place to go is to go to the provinces where there is war, and there is a position of King Prime Minister or Privy Councilor. As long as he is not in the capital...who else opposes Wen Lushan's becoming a monk?"

“…….”

Zhao Wei was stunned when he heard this!! Who would have said that Mr. Dieshan only knows how to endorse political affairs? Who would he be anxious with?

Why didn't he expect this?

The trick here is very simple, but it is something that ordinary people can't imagine...

Zhao Wei ignored that the administrative distribution of the Yuan Dynasty was completely different from that of the Song Dynasty.

First, the Yuan Dynasty replaced the various "roads" of the Song Dynasty with provinces. In terms of administrative power, the original positions of commanders, grain, and departments were also controlled by the four affairs of military, transportation, law and grain. It was changed to the "Xingzhongshu Province" under the province. It was established in the "Xingzhongshu Province" to establish Pingzhang affairs, political affairs, and ministers, and the officials of the Zhongshu Province, which were unified with the Zhongshu Province in the capital.

Therefore, there were often two situations of Pingzhang and two participation in politics in the Yuan Dynasty. One was the prime minister, that is, the Pingzhang around the emperor, and the other was called the prime minister, which was the Pingzhang affairs of the Secretariat of Xingzhong.

Logically speaking, Wang Xiang was just the head of the provincial government, so he naturally could not compare with the national government. Liu Mengyan was very good at it. If he was transferred to the provincial government, it would be considered a relegation. Kublai Khan would naturally not be too slow to treat him.

But... there is one situation that can be an exception! That is the provincial king in wartime!

Because the Yuan system stipulated that each province only had a Secretariat in peacetime, which was in charge of provincial government affairs, and the military affairs were coordinated by Wanhufu. In wartime, the "Shenzhuwei Yuan" was added, and the military power was transferred from Wanhufu to the Secretariat...

To put it bluntly, once there is a war, only the provinces of the regime will immediately enter a wartime state of unity between military and political affairs. The army can be directly allocated without the central government.

This is a great power. For example, Ali Hague in Huguang Province, Li Dehui in Sichuan Province, and Ahema, the prime minister who was transferred to Jiangnan Province.

On the surface, he was a provincial king and a minister, but he was not as good as the central government's official. But in fact, he had great power and his status was above the official. If Liu Mengyan was assigned to a provincial government in a wartime position as a minister, it would be equivalent to promotion, so there was naturally no problem.

Zhao Wei sighed sincerely, "Sir, you are still smart..."

As long as you can squeeze out Liu Mengyan, Wen Tianxiang’s affairs will be at least half successful!

Mr. Dieshan heard this and said, "You can't follow me in this place, how should your highness continue? How should you continue? If you can fundamentally let Emperor Yuan realize the suffering of the people in the south, it will not only be a good thing for the Wenlulu, but also a great contribution to the people in the south."

Zhao Wei: "Don't worry, sir, Wei Zi will not let suppose sir... Calculate the days, Ma Nanbao should have entered Dadu in about half a month, that is the backup... Telling the people's sentiments from a merchant in Huguang is much more useful than me, a mixed man."

"Yes..." Mr. Dieshan nodded, "If this happens, I will feel relieved."

Zhao Wei said, "And... Wei also wants to make a third-hand plan."

"Oh? What are the plans?"

Zhao Wei said: "You can't just stare at Kublai Khan. A few days ago, the gentleman said that there are two places where he is, one is Kublai Khan, and the other is why Liu Mengyan had the intention of killing Mr. Wen..."

"Vi also wants to figure this out..."

Mr. Dieshan frowned, "I'm afraid this is not that easy to deal with?"

To understand the hatred between Liu Mengyan and Wen Tianxiang, two conditions are required. First, Zhao Wei must have a deep connection in Dada and spy on Liu Mengyan from the side.

Second, if that is to ask Liu Mengyan himself.

But these two conditions are not met for Zhao Wei, who has just arrived in Dadu.

"Actually... there is a third way."

Mr. Dieshan was stunned again, "What, what's the solution?"

Only Zhao Wei said: "Sir, don't forget, there is another person who will definitely kill Wen Tianxiang until Liu Mengyan."

"who?"

"It's Mr. Wen himself!" Zhao Wei gritted his teeth and said, "I want to go to the Ministry of Justice's prison in person and meet Wen Xiang!"
