Chapter 747 Suspicion(2/2)
According to Duan Zhixuan's temperament, he would never let go of Yang Fan who maimed his two sons.
Even though the emperor might strictly order him not to take revenge on Yang Fan.
But in the face of enemies, even if the emperor has an imperial order, who can remain indifferent to his enemies?
Once these two guys get together, there will definitely be something good to watch.
Previously, Yang Fan planned to pilot an economic zone in Jiangnan, but the Guanzhong gentry were completely unable to sit still.
They didn't object to Yang Fan going to Jiangnan before, because they felt that Yang Fan couldn't make any big moves in Jiangnan.
But now, they never thought that Jiangnan's future would be so good!
Who doesn’t know the profits of sea trade?
It turned out that it was firmly in the hands of the Jiangnan nobles, and the Guanzhong family could only be jealous.
But it’s different now!
Yang Fan established a sea trade bureau in Jiangnan. Obviously, he would have the final say in the sea trade in Jiangnan and even the sea trade in the entire Tang Dynasty.
In the past, Guanzhong was too far away from the south of the Yangtze River, beyond reach, and I didn't want to get involved.
But now it’s completely different!
Concrete roads have begun to be opened on the main official roads of Datang.
Nowadays, if you drive quickly from Jiangnan to Chang'an, you can reach it in two or three days.
As a result, the Guanzhong family will certainly not let go of such a piece of fat.
Especially Yang Fan's Royal Central Bank of the Tang Dynasty plan, which subverted the understanding of the times.
Once paper money is unified, won't the imperial court control the lifeblood of the economy?
The interests involved in everything in Jiangnan are too huge, how can the Guanzhong family let it go?
The Guanzhong family has always been at odds with Yang Fan, and they can't interfere in Jiangnan's affairs, so they can only use other methods.
Of course, these methods cannot be stated openly.
After all, Yang Fan is Li Er's man.
If we object openly, wouldn't it be equivalent to opposing the emperor?
As a Guanzhong family, of course they would not be so short-sighted.
You know, the emperor is their biggest backer.
The reason why he didn't deal with Yang Fan was just to get some profits from the emperor.
Therefore, everyone discussed that Yang Fan could not be allowed to cover the sky in Jiangnan with one hand.
Someone must be sent over to snatch some benefits from Yang Fan.
But it’s not easy to find candidates.
Because this person must not only have certain prestige and qualifications, but also be able to not be afraid of Yang Fan.
After much deliberation, Zhang Liang was lifted up.
Therefore, whether it is the impeachment of Yang Fan or the resurrection of Duan Zhixuan this time, the shadow of the Guanzhong family is indispensable behind it.
Of course, there are several other reasons why it was proposed that Duan Zhixuan come back and go to Jiangnan.
On the one hand, Duan Zhixuan's two sons were both maimed by Yang Fan. They were definitely irresolvable mortal enemies, and there was absolutely no chance of the two of them collaborating.
On the other hand, Duan Zhixuan followed Li Er in the southern and northern campaigns and made great achievements for the empire. Based on his seniority, he can definitely overpower Yang Fan.
Now that the emperor has mentioned bringing Duan Zhixuan back to life, he obviously has such a plan in mind.
Since things were developing almost in the direction they expected, Changsun Wuji was of course extremely happy.
Of course, with His Majesty Li Er's wisdom, he would not fail to see the truth behind this.
The Guanzhong aristocratic family obviously took advantage of their old feelings to re-appoint Duan Zhixuan.
Once you really let Duan Zhixuan go south, it will inevitably create a situation, that is, Duan Zhixuan has a high rank and Yang Fan has a high official position.
Since then, it has become a difficult problem for Jiangnan officials to listen to, and it may even cause confusion.
But if I don't use Duan Zhixuan, I won't give any sweetness to the Guanzhong family.
Then these people will definitely target Yang Fan non-stop.
After weighing the pros and cons, His Majesty Li Er still made a compromise.
As the Guanzhong family was the main force supporting Li Er's ascension to the throne, Li Er had to consider the opinions of these people.
Although it was possible for the Guanzhong family to take a bite of the fat that Yang Fan had finally snatched from the Jiangnan nobles, there was nothing that could be done about it.
It’s better than letting these Guanzhong aristocratic families keep causing trouble!
Although he had some concerns in his heart, His Majesty Li Er still turned to stare at Fang Xuanling and asked: "What do Fang Aiqing think?"
Fang Xuanling smiled bitterly and said: "Your Majesty has already made a decision, so why bother asking the ministers for their opinions?"
"However, Wei Chen still said that the situation in Jiangnan was opened up by the Prince Consort. No matter who is sent there, it can only be used as a support."
"If the people sent only know how to exercise power, it will lead to chaos in the south of the Yangtze River and even delay His Majesty's plan for the Eastern Expedition..."
At this point, Li Er understood.
Obviously, Fang Xuanling has already seen through the key.
The reason for this impeachment was Yang Fan's disrespect for the imperial power. In the final analysis, it was because the Guanzhong family wanted to take a bite of the fat meat of Jiangnan.
The Guanzhong family pushed Duan Zhixuan out.
Rather than saying that the emperor sent him to Jiangnan to check and balance Yang Fan, it is better to say that this is the distribution of interests in Jiangnan between the emperor and the Guanzhong family.
Fang Xuanling obviously saw the key to it, so he just warned him a few words and did not object.
After all, Yang Fan is acting arbitrarily in Jiangnan, and there are countless jealous and enthusiastic people who are doing things behind his back, so it is easy for people to get caught.
Only a person who commits a thousand days will be a thief, and a thousand days will not prevent him from being a thief.
Since the Guanzhong family wants to intervene in Jiangnan, why not generously let the other party's people in, which will reduce their grudges.
Seeing that Fang Xuanling actually agreed with such an opinion, Li Er felt a little surprised.
However, it coincided with the general idea in his mind.
After all, sending Duan Zhixuan to the south of the Yangtze River would not only calm the dissatisfaction of the Guanzhong gentry, but also prevent Yang Fan from becoming a standout.
Thinking of this, Li Er picked up the tea cup and drank the tea leisurely.
