Chapter 206: Invitation
Sheng Wei Qiaoxin said, you are willing to cut to the chase!
I was secretly glad that I insisted on coming to the northern Xinjiang, in case it was Gongsun Xi who came, how long would I have to go around with Zhao Shi?
Especially Gongsun Xi is not good at negotiation at all, and then his identity is not as nonsense as Sheng Weiqiao, wouldn't it be a stalemate?
"Before I give my uncle a reason, can my uncle tell me why you agreed to let me go north in the first place?" she made up her mind and asked rhetorically, "Calculate the time, then my uncle should not be able to ask my father for advice?" and I can't think of a reason why my father would let me come to the north?"
Zhao Shi stroked the short beard under his chin and said with a smile: "You said that we are close relatives, how can I bear to refuse your child's filial piety?"
Sheng Weiqiao secretly scolded the "old fox", but he also knew in his heart that even if Zhao Shi had the heart to give a chance, he would definitely not admit it at this time, otherwise wouldn't he be asked by himself to tell him why he wanted to give a chance, did he just think that Rong Sleeping Crane was very promising, and he was worthy of support for Rong Qingchu.
"Although my uncle agreed to let me go north out of filial piety to fulfill me, I guess my uncle also knows what this move means. Sheng Weiqiao groaned and said, "It can be seen that my uncle is not unable to disobey his father and give up his son for the sake of secret chastity. ”
"As for the reason why I persuaded my uncle to do this, in fact, a thousand words are summed up in one sentence: good birds choose trees to perch. ”
"I wonder what my uncle thinks?"
Zhao Shi said: "Well, that's right. The question is, how can Mizhen prove that he is Kagi Hidee?"
"Isn't Mi Zhen's performance so far enough to prove that he is better than the prince?" Sheng Weiqiao asked rhetorically.
Zhao Shi smiled and said, "Kang Zhao, this is not so compared. If the prince is not the eldest son, but only a concubine, and Mizhen is the son-in-law, then as long as Mizhen is better than the son, it is enough to convince most people. The problem is that the son of the world is the eldest son, and he has no evil deeds, but he is quite virtuous. It's still us who grew up, and he is married to the Qi family, the arm of the prince, oh, and now his eldest daughter, your niece Jian'an Junjun, has married into the Huang family, another arm of the prince!"
"In this case, if we want to choose Mizhen, then Mizhen can't just be better than the world, but everyone must be convinced!"
"But Mizhen hasn't reached that point yet, has she?"
Sheng Weiqiao smiled and said: "Uncle, if you attach so much importance to the order of the elders and the young, why do you still think that the father is more suitable for practicing Zuo than today?"
"The order of the elders and the young is just a rhetoric. Zhao Shiwan said, "In the final analysis, it is still distant and close relatives! Mizhen has been living abroad since she was a child, even my uncle and uncle, and I haven't even seen him with my own eyes until now, let alone other people?"
"So?" Sheng Weiqiao smiled and said, "However, when it comes to distant relatives, my uncle said that the son of the family married the Qi family and married a daughter to the Huang family, and he made some achievements in the world, and the most polished thing was not the Qi family and the Huang family? So, the Zhao family can't say that it still has to be in the back row, isn't it? Therefore, the Huang family of the Qi family resolutely stands on the side of the prince, and it is okay." Why should my uncle take the same position as them?"
Zhao Shi smiled and said: "Kang Zhao, isn't it the same thing for Mizhen? The Gongsun family and your Sheng family who have adopted him are very good with the Xuan Yu family, the Feng family and the Xu family. It is said that even the Jiangnan Luo family, the son of their family who served as a county guard in Nanfeng County, also served as a teacher for Mizhen? In this way, if Mi Zhen succeeds, won't my Zhao family have to stand back?"
Sheng Weiqiao shook his head and said, "Uncle, what you said is not right. It sounds like there are a lot of people Mizhen has to take care of, but there is no conflict of interest with the Zhao family at all! Because the Feng family and the Xuan Yu family are all dedicated to business, my aunt has a son under her knees, and my cousin has only one son at present, so he has never considered going out at all!"
"As for the clansmen of the Xuanyu family, because after my uncle left, he used to bully my aunt, and my aunt will definitely not approve of them joining the ranks!"
"The heirs of the Feng family should be more prosperous, but although my cousins are of good character, their academic aptitude is suffocating, and they don't even have a show of talent! Even if this situation is sealed, how many high-quality officials can they become? Not to mention that the Feng family is rich, and if the official position is not high, they will still be angry...... They'd rather be rich in Nanfeng County and be at ease!"
"Not to mention my mother's Sheng family, it's similar to the Feng family. ”
"The Xu family is in a similar situation with my aunt's family, the heirs are thin, Uncle Xu and the younger brother, there are only two people in total, how can they take care of it?"
"And the Luo county guard of the Luo family, although he has a master-apprentice status with Mi Zhen, in fact, it is Mi Zhen who took the Xie Yuan exam, and respected the county shou as a 'teacher', if you want to talk about feelings, it will naturally not be very profound. Especially my cousin made a marriage with Miss Luo's family, and he came to marry a daughter from a high door and a woman from a low family. My cousin is a very honest person, do you think that my maternal grandfather, maternal parents, and maternal uncle would want the Luo family to be too prominent?"
"If that's the case, how can my cousin deal with himself in front of his cousin-in-law?"
After explaining that Rong Sleeping Crane's in-laws could not threaten the Zhao family at all, she turned her words and talked about the Qi family and the Huang family, "The Qi family has many heirs, and Qi Shangshu is old, and his descendants have grown up! From Qi Shangshu's treatment of the younger generations over the years, it can be seen that he is not the kind of person who allows his descendants to work his own, but cares for the younger generations very much!"
Therefore, if Rong Qingyu comes to power in the future, will Qi Jianxun not use this son-in-law to seek a good future for the Qi family, including other daughters and sons-in-law, grandsons, and grandsons-in-law?
There are so many of them, how much fat do they have to occupy?
"The Huang family is not a thin family, especially Huang Wuyi was known as a prodigy in Shuzhong when he was young, and in the previous scientific examination, he was only one place lower than Mizhen!"
"After Mi Zhen was canceled because of the children of the clan, he was actually the champion of that subject. ”
"How can such a character be an ordinary courtier?"
"It must be going to the marquis!"
"And since ancient times, how many of them have been lonely ministers?"
"Speaking of which, the eldest uncle has been guarding the frontier for many years, and the younger uncle is also conscientious in serving his grandmother and assisting his father in the court!"
"It's hard to ...... In the end, I have to fight with Huang Wuyi's junior?!"
Zhao Shi listened quietly and said: "Your argument is also reasonable, but there are many Qi family and Huang family, and there are many benefits that want to share profits, which is all trouble after the matter is completed." The problem now is that there is Ruru on the outside and the Meng family on the inside, in this case, the Qi family and the Huang family are many and powerful, and they are the forces that must be fought for!"
Therefore, even if the prince is mediocre, there are these two escorts and there are some other people who have watched the prince grow up, or who love the son's good conduct...... You and Mi Zhen, but how are you going to solve this problem?"
Sheng Weiqiao carefully savored his question, and said thoughtfully: "This problem is not something we need to solve, and when the time comes, it will naturally be solved." ”
"Really?" Zhao Shi glanced at her deeply and said, "Is it really easy to solve?"
Sheng Weiqiao said: "Mi Zhen didn't tell me in detail, but I think he doesn't care about anyone other than his uncle, such as the Qi family and the Huang family. ”
".................." Zhao Shi closed his eyes, pondered for a moment, opened his eyes and said, "I know about this, Kang Zhao, you are pregnant, and it is not good to be tired." Why don't you go and rest first?"
Sheng Weiqiao remembered the western frontier and said hurriedly: "Then ...... Yizhou?"
"The army is open, where is it said that you can leave?" Zhao Shi's tone was kind, but he couldn't refuse, "It's not a day or two, not to mention that you yourself said that Mizhen doesn't have the consciousness to sacrifice his life for the country, if Yizhou really can't hold it, won't he run?"
Sheng Weiqiao hurriedly said: "Uncle, are you planning to send troops?"
However, Zhao Shi did not answer clearly, only said: "I want to think about it alone." ”
“…… Then I won't bother my uncle. Sheng Weiqiao was very anxious in his heart, but Zhao Shi made it clear that he didn't want to talk to her anymore, and the situation continued to be entangled, and he couldn't say that it would make him feel disgusted, so he had to be blessed and leave.
She went back to the guest house, hurriedly recounted the whole conversation to Xuan Yu Feng, and asked worriedly: "Auntie, I didn't say anything that shouldn't be said, right?"
The last thing he asked should be to euphemistically ask about the existence of Duke Huan. Xuan Yu Feng thought for a while, and said calmly, "You hinted that he Huan Gong has other backhands left for Mi Zhen, so Mi Zhen doesn't need to care about the Qi family and the Huang family at all, this should be in line with Huan Gong's peach and plum all over the world, even if he has been missing for more than ten years, if he ascends to the heights, there will be followers." ”
"With the status of Duke Huan, it is normal for him to need someone to be quiet at this time. ”
"In my opinion, since he asked you to explain the reason, it can be seen that his heart is also biased towards you, but he has not yet made up his mind, so let you give him confidence. ”
"I don't think there's anything wrong with your rhetoric, plus the weight of Duke Huan...... Shouldn't it be a bad outcome?"
Sheng Weiqiao said worriedly: "It's just that he doesn't want me to stay there, I'm afraid that my father-in-law will send someone to Jizhou for the sake of the son, and even now he has sent someone to Jizhou, contact him privately, and lobby for the son! My father-in-law has been a relative with him for so many years, how can I compare with each other? I must know my uncle's mind better, in case ...... What if this uncle was going to be biased towards Mizhen, but someone came to cut him off?"
Xuan Yu Feng said: "This is a helpless thing, we can't arrest General Huaihua and put him under house arrest, right?" But no matter how you look at Mi Zhen, she is more promising than the son of the world, unless you are particularly pedantic and conservative, you will definitely be more willing to consider Mi Zhen." ”
"Alas, I really don't know if this uncle doesn't completely consider falling to Mizhen, why is there still a lot of kung fu at this time?" Sheng Weiqiao said depressedly, "Yizhou has been surrounded by Ruru for so many days, isn't he afraid that something has gone wrong over there at this time?!
"Therefore, Mizhen can hold Yizhou, and he will have merit in the future. Xuan Yu Feng comforted, "General Huaihua must know this kind of war thing better than our women's Taoist family! He is not in a hurry, obviously things have not yet reached the point of being out of control! Besides, Mizhen is a fuel-efficient lamp? Ruru is easy to fight in northern Xinjiang, and it is not so easy to take advantage of him!"
While they were whispering, Yi Shan's cough suddenly came from outside, followed by a proclamation: "The Hussar General's Mansion has sent an invitation, and I want to invite the mother and the old lady to the banquet...... Someone is at the door right now. Mother, old lady, do you want to see you?"
