Chapter 185: Patience
Although he heard An Guohou say that all the aftermath had been arranged, this did not soothe Ning Guogong's frowns. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
However, An Guohou also sighed and said, "It's just that the loss of this weapon workshop is also a great loss for the Cui family." ”
The Cui family spent so much effort to privately set up such an armory workshop to build a large number of weapons, naturally in order to supply some private soldiers who could not be put on the table.
For the Cui family, what they want is a right that is infinitely large enough to be close to the imperial power, or even a right that can be compared to the imperial power. But now Yu Wenhong, who is sitting on the throne, has no blood relationship with the Cui family, and even the Cui family is very unpleasant, so the Cui family naturally has to think about other things.
Ning Guo said fairly: "I will slowly find a way to deal with the matter of weapons in the future." ”
Now what made Ning Guogong frown even more was Cui Mian, who caused trouble at the beginning, and looked up at An Guohou with some displeasure and said, "What's the matter with Ah Mian?"
An Guohou heard his brother mention his son's name, his face became a little embarrassed, and he paused for a moment before he said with some shame: "This time it is indeed Ah Mian, isn't it, he has been spoiled by his mother all these years." ”
In any case, the current series of situations of the Cui family was triggered by Cui Mian beating the eldest princess of Xunyang and saying that arrogant sentence as the starting point. An Guohou knew that even if there was no such thing, if the emperor wanted to deal with the Cui family, he would find other reasons. But in any case, what is happening now is indeed due to Cui Mian's arrogance and imprudentness.
Ning Guogong was also a little dissatisfied with this nephew, and couldn't help but say at this time: "I told you a long time ago that the children in the family can't be spoiled by women, and what should be taught must be taught." ”
It was Cui Mian's arrogant sentence, even Ning Guogong agreed, for him, he confirmed that it was the people of the Yuwen family who were ungrateful when they crossed the river and demolished the bridge. Whether it is Gaozu or the first emperor, their Cui family has made great contributions to them, but they have not given the Cui family the honor and power they deserve.
But thinking so in my heart, I can't say it like this, let alone in front of the eldest princess of Xunyang.
Cui Mian looked at it as arrogant and arrogant as he relied on the power of the Cui family, Ning Guogong had long been dissatisfied with the absurd things that this nephew had done before, and mentioned it many times, but this nephew even said that his uncle's words were in his left ear and out of his right ear.
Ning Guogong felt that it was a mistake for Cui Mian to marry the eldest princess of Xunyang, Cui Mian fell in love with the beauty of the eldest princess of Xunyang, but the eldest princess of Xunyang did not have a good face for him, Cui Mian was young and vigorous, and wanted to let people see what about the royal princess, he didn't marry if he wanted to. But marrying a powerless princess of the Yuwen family is not good for the Cui family, so it is better to use Cui Mian's marriage to marry a strong in-law.
An Guohou didn't speak, he did lose money in Cui Mian's matter. He was busy with outside work, and he really lacked instruction for his son.
Ning Guogong asked again: "Ah Mian is still locked up by the emperor?"
An Guohou nodded, but then said indignantly: "Big brother doesn't have to worry about him, this indisputable thing, let him suffer more this time, so that he can remember it for a long time in the future." ”
Ning Guogong will not take this seriously, in fact, like Mrs. An Guohou, An Guohou also spoils children a little, Cui Mianru's temperament that is not afraid of the ground today is not something that Mrs. An Guohou can cause alone. If he really leaves Cui Mian alone, the two brothers will not break up, but they will also have a rift. If there is a discord within the Cui family, it will be very detrimental to the Cui family if they are taken advantage of again.
Ning Guogong naturally knew the importance of the unity of a clan to the family.
Ning Guogong sighed deeply and said, "It seems that this victory in Liaodong is really for his Yuwen family. "The emperor has stirred up so many things, it is clear that he doesn't want to reward the Cui family anymore.
Cui An, who was standing aside with his hands in his hands, suddenly "snorted" from his nose at this time, and said, "That little emperor, he has a lot of thoughts. ”
In fact, Cui An is not a few years older than Yu Wenhong, but Cui An just likes to call him "Little Emperor" to show his contempt and disdain for him.
Ning Guo said fairly: "Don't underestimate him. He ascended the throne with a bare ass and a testament to the throne, and he didn't even have some decent military power in his hands, and there were not many people who were optimistic about him. But you see that he has been on the throne for many years, and he looks quiet, but the situation in the court has been firmly controlled by him. ”
Ning Guogong himself felt a little that he had lost his eyes, and Yu Wenwei's edge in the court had overshadowed everything back then, but it made him ignore him, the third son of the emperor.
Several people in the study were silent for a while, and the expressions of Ning Guogong and An Guohou were not very good.
At this time, Master Cui San, who had been silent, finally spoke: "The family's business is not very optimistic, in the past two years, Ruyifang has seized a lot of the Cui family's business, and the most profitable treasure business in Jiangnan is now suppressed by Taozhuang Shipyard." I am afraid that this year's harvest in the family will not be optimistic. ”
This Cui San master is Cui Chongyi's father.
The three brothers of the Cui family's mother-in-law, Ning Guogong and An Guohou and the Queen Mother are compatriots, but this Cui San is a concubine. But in Cui's family, there is no dispute between the concubines, and the three brothers seem to be very harmonious, but they also have a clear division of labor.
Ning Guogong was in charge of the military power, An Guohou was in charge of the power of the court, and Cui San was in charge of the Cui family's affairs.
If the Cui family wants to stabilize its position in the court, there are many places where they need to spend money to operate, and at the same time, the Cui family also has to take care of the expenses of Qi Wang Yu Wenjiong, so there are naturally more places where they need to use money.
Silver is a good thing, without silver, many things that you want to do can't be done, especially now that the emperor is sharpening his knife against the Cui family, silver is even more important. So when Master Cui San said that the income was decreasing, he frowned again.
Ning Guogong asked again: "Let you check the details of Ruyi Fang, can you find out clearly?"
Master Cui San looked at Ning Guogong and replied: "Ruyifang is not small, and it is very cautious, it is indeed very difficult to find out its details, I tried my best to investigate, and even sent people to infiltrate Ruyifang, but so far I have only found a little fur." But because of this, it turns out that the guess of the eldest brother and the second brother may be right, and Ruyifang is probably not as simple as running a business. Ruyi Fang, as well as Zhu Hong, who runs Ruyi Fang, am afraid that it is really related to the one in the palace, so in the face of the power of the Cui family, he can also have no fear. ”
Ning Guogong raised his eyebrows and sighed with the two brothers: "It seems that the emperor's patience with my Cui family is getting smaller and smaller. "Not only in the DPRK and China, but also from other sides.
Then the Cui family must also speed up preparations. The emperor has attacked the Cui family this time, and the Cui family can't always be vegetarian, so they compare the means of both sides. Since Yu Wenhong can't tolerate the Cui family, then his Cui family can only change an obedient person to be the emperor.
