Chapter 179: The imperial family is the most ruthless!
Chen Pingping carefully considered his words and said, "Your Majesty, since Fan Xian and Su Wenyi have this plan, they must have their reasons.
Although Fan Sizhe is young, he has talent for business. If he can make good use of it, he may be able to achieve great things.
The old minister believes that we can wait and see and provide support at the appropriate time.
At the same time, we should also strengthen our control over the situation in Northern Qi to prevent any unexpected events."
Emperor Qing narrowed his eyes slightly and did not comment. He continued to remain silent, as if he was weighing the pros and cons.
Chen Pingping said no more and waited respectfully for Emperor Qing's decision.
Emperor Qing sat on the dragon throne with a solemn expression, tapping the armrests lightly with his fingers, constantly weighing the pros and cons of the matter in his mind.
After a moment, he finally made a decision.
"Send Fan Jian to the palace."
Emperor Qing's voice was steady and powerful.
The decree was quickly conveyed, and soon Fan Jian hurried to the palace.
Fan Jian bowed respectfully to Emperor Qing, but in his heart he was also guessing the purpose of Emperor Qing's summons.
Emperor Qing sat on the dragon throne with an unfathomable look on his face.
He tilted his head slightly, motioning Chen Pingping to hand the note to Fan Jian.
Chen Pingping did as he was told, handed the note to Fan Jian, and then quietly stepped aside.
Fan Jian took the note, unfolded it, and immediately looked doubtful.
Fan Jian looked up at Emperor Qing and asked, "Your Majesty, I am confused after reading this note. What is your Majesty's intention?"
Emperor Qing looked deep in his eyes and slowly said, "Fan Jian, the organization planned by Su Wenyi may seem like an ordinary business, but it actually has a hidden secret.
This institution can pool money and regulate the flow of the economy if it succeeds.
We can gradually control the economic lifeline of Northern Qi and let the wealth of Northern Qi be used by our Qing Kingdom.
If operated properly, its influence will far exceed that of the inner treasury, and it will become a powerful tool for our Qing country to control the world's economy."
Fan Jian listened carefully, his expression becoming more solemn.
He was well aware of the seriousness of the matter and that any negligence could lead to unpredictable consequences.
Once this kind of thing is done, Fan Sizhe's life and head will be completely tied to that so-called organization.
Far away in Northern Qi, even if Fan Jian wanted to, he was afraid he would not be able to protect Fan Sizhe.
"Your Majesty, this plan is brilliant, but it is extremely difficult to implement. And how could the people of Northern Qi easily let the people of Qing control their economic lifeline?"
Emperor Qing raised his chin slightly and showed a confident smile.
“It is precisely because of its difficulty that its value is more evident.
Su Wenyi is a resourceful man, and Fan Xian is also very intelligent.
I believe they will have a solution.
Fan Jian, please think carefully, if you let Fan Sizhe participate in this matter, what are the chances of success?"
Fan Jian fell into deep thought, constantly weighing the pros and cons in his mind.
There was total silence in the palace, with only the thoughts of Emperor Qing and Fan Jian intertwining and colliding in the air.
Fan Jian frowned and said with embarrassment: "Your Majesty, although Sizhe has the ability to do business, I really can't bear to let him go to such a dangerous place.
The situation in Northern Qi is very complicated and there are dangers everywhere.
Your Majesty, I have devoted my entire life to the Kingdom of Qing, but I also have difficulties at home.
I only have two sons. Fan Xian is already in great danger in Northern Qi. If I send Sizhe over as well, if something happens, our Fan family will be extinct!
If the incense is cut off, I will not have the face to meet the ancestors of the Fan family in the underworld. "
Emperor Qing nodded, with an understanding look in his eyes, and said slowly: "Fan Jian, I know you love your son. But this matter is related to the great cause of Qing. If this plan succeeds, Fan Sizhe will definitely make great contributions to Qing.
I can give him many benefits. If he succeeds, I will make him a king!
I can also pave the way for him in the court, so it is not impossible for him to become the prime minister in the future.
In addition, I can choose a virtuous and intelligent princess from among the princesses and marry her to him, so that your Fan family will be more glorious.
I will also arrange for powerful people to protect him secretly and ensure his safety.
Fan Jian, you have to put the overall situation first. "
Fan Jian was very conflicted. He knew that what Emperor Qing said made sense, but when he thought about the danger his son might encounter, he was filled with worry.
Fan Jian stood there, his face gloomy, and said firmly: "Your Majesty, no matter what you say, I cannot agree to let Sizhe go to Northern Qi.
That place is too dangerous, I can't risk my son's life."
Fan Jian was extremely worried. He felt heartbroken when he thought about the danger his two sons might face.
He secretly swore in his heart that he must protect his children, even if it meant disobeying the emperor's orders.
Emperor Qing looked at the stubborn Fan Jian and his face darkened.
Emperor Qing narrowed his eyes slightly, revealing a domineering aura, "Fan Jian, I have made the decision on this matter.
Fan Sizhe must go to Northern Qi for the overall interests of Qing Kingdom.
As a subject, you should obey my orders.
There is no deal on this matter! No room for negotiation! Arrange it as soon as possible!"
Fan Jian was shocked. He knew that once Emperor Qing made a decision, it would be difficult to change it.
He opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but finally closed it helplessly.
Finally, Fan Jian bowed to Emperor Qing and said, "Your Majesty, I obey your order!"
Fan Jian walked out of the palace slowly and distraught, his back full of loneliness and helplessness.
Looking at Fan Jian's back, Emperor Qing waved his sleeves and said, "Fan Jian, after all these years, he's still the same!"
Chen Pingping looked at Fan Jian's departing figure, feeling reluctant, and turned to Emperor Qing and said, "Your Majesty, Fan Jian also loves his son very much, and it is difficult for him to accept it for the time being.
Your Majesty, please give Fan Jian more time to think about this matter carefully.
Fan Jian was loyal to Qing State throughout his life and made great contributions to it.
It is indeed extremely risky to let Fan Sizhe go to Northern Qi now, and Fan Jian’s concerns are not unreasonable.
Your Majesty is always wise, and he will surely understand your painstaking efforts."
The corner of Emperor Qing's mouth rose, as if he was smiling, and his tone became sarcastic.
"Hey? Dean Chen, what's wrong with you? Why are you speaking for Fan Jian like this?
My decision is my golden word, how can it be changed at will?
Fan Jian is just a piece on my chessboard, and he must obey the decisions I make.
Chen Pingping, have you forgotten your identity? "
Emperor Qing's words instantly made Chen Pingping's heart sink.
Chen Pingping smiled and said flatteringly: "How could it be? No matter what time it is, I will never forget that I am your dog! Old dog!"
Emperor Qing's eyes widened with anger, and he threw his sleeves violently and shouted, "Get out!"
Chen Pingping trembled slightly, and quickly lowered his head, with a flattering smile on his face, and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, please calm down. I will take my leave now."
After saying that, Chen Pingping pushed the wheelchair and changed direction.
However, a hint of murderous intent quietly emerged in those lowered eyes.
I would like to beg you all to give me some votes and gifts, especially recommendation votes. I am begging you all!
