Chapter 5: Night Talk

At the end of the day. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

To the south of the south gate of Taixue in Hengjie, there are many officials' mansions, and several scholars of the dynasty lived here.

In the imperial history, Cheng Suquan's house is in the middle of the street, his parents died early, and he has a younger brother and a cousin in the family, but he has not separated the family.

Sufu's ancestral home is Zhending, Nanzhili, and it is a well-known scholarly family in the local area. During the Bingchen period, Su Quanjin was inscribed on the gold list, crossed the streets, and obtained the list, and then entered the Hanlin Academy to study for qualifications. Nine years later, his cousin won the ninth place in the second class, and his brother-in-law's qualifications were slightly poor, so he only got a fellow jinshi.

Su Quan for the indecisive, rash brother of the younger brother to find an errand to go out, the cautious brother was arranged into the ministry, now more than ten years have passed, the younger brother has done no merit, the younger brother has been the official examination of the Qing Officials Division, although the grade is not high, but it is responsible for the promotion and dismissal of large and small casual officials in the real power position, there is something on weekdays, he is mostly with the younger brother to discuss.

The same is true tonight.

The night was dark, and two headlamps were lit in the study, and the charcoal fire was not extinguished, only a little residual warmth remained. The tea in Su Quan's hand had been brewed three or four times, as light as water, he lifted the teapot and planned to add some hot water to himself, but found that the kettle was empty.

Su Cheng held the already cold teacup in his hand, and a thin bead of sweat appeared on his head, and he said after a while, "Big brother, have others heard this?" ”

Su Quan nodded: "The Queen Mother is not shy about it, she is here with her left and right, I'm afraid it won't be long before everyone who should know knows it." ”

"Your Majesty, he ......," Su Cheng asked cautiously, "Never heard of it?" ”

Su Quan smiled and said: "At the end of last year, Your Majesty punished a maidservant, and the Queen Mother called him over to reprimand him for a long time. ”

Su Cheng was dumbfounded.

"Last year, the Queen Mother summoned Zai Fu and said that she wanted to return the government to ......His Majesty," Su Quan sighed, "Although I knew that this matter was very watery, I didn't expect that her heart to participate in politics would not die, but she still wanted to set up another reserve." ”

Su Cheng interrupted him, "Don't talk about Zhao Qian, Zhao Qian's father is almost unrecognized!" ”

"She asked me what I thought of the former Empress Dowager Xuan's 30 years of listening to politics...... That's it, she also asked me, if the children and grandchildren are not filial, can they be chased away......" Su Quan sneered, "I have only heard of the Son of Heaven and the scholars ruling the world, but I have never heard of the Queen Mother and the scholars ruling the world, who sits on the throne, it is not her who has the final say." ”

Su Cheng's expression was blank, seven or eight thoughts turned in his mind, but he didn't say any of them, just looked at Su Quan anxiously, "Big brother, I don't know how the other adults make their choices!" ”

Su Quan took two sips of tea soup like white water, and drank tea calmly, "But I presented Your Majesty with a battle map of the Northland, and Zhou Yan, the protector of the country, was fined last year, and Li Yi scolded her so much that she knelt down for an afternoon, it is said that it was just because His Majesty copied "Flood" ten times, and now it is to be chosen, how do you say to choose." ”

Su Quan still had a word to say.

If you want to cling to the new emperor, there are many people who are on the rise, but wealth also has to have a life flower. In the past ten years, it has only been so that the ministers have seen how Zhao Xian was managed by the Empress Dowager Tian, if the conditions are equal, no matter how much flattery and self-recommendation are made, they will go where they should go with the passage of time and the growth of power.

However, as Zhao Xian grew older and Empress Dowager Tian became older, the focus of the ministers naturally tilted towards Zhao Xian. Empress Dowager Tian also seemed to have discovered the turbulent dark tide under the table, so she wanted to use the same way as before to directly suppress it.

Zhao Xian is about to be twenty.

If one is twenty or the other is thirty, everyone may still seriously compare the scores, but one is a twenty-year-old orthodox prince, the other is a fifty-year-old pheasant, and no matter how loyal the queen mother is, he also has to weigh how the little emperor will act after he takes power.

After the election, the queen mother denied it twice, and Zhao Xian himself vetoed it three times.

Once Zhao Xian became a pro-government person, he could no longer find a reason to delay.

Su Quan sighed in her heart.

In the end, the foundation is still not enough......

When his great-grandfather forbade his heirs to enter the court as officials, it was hard to imagine that the Zhao family's martial arts family, which was far away from the river, could sit on the country for hundreds of years.

Now it is unrealistic to study the idea of the ancestors, perhaps at that time it was just to show his loyalty to the emperor of the previous dynasty, waiting for the price to sell, expecting to sell himself at a better price; Maybe you think that the martial artist who can only play martial arts will soon be ousted from power, and it is best to stay away.

However, the fault line in those decades made the Su family, a first-class prominent clan in the previous dynasty, reduced to a situation where the four generations have not entered the cabinet now.

With the strength of his whole family, he has only climbed to the position of the third grade in a few decades, and it is even more of a dream to want to be the top of the house. It's like the previous dynasty, where the family and other clans took turns to sit on the platform, and the court was just a place for a few families to discuss things.

If you do this official steadfastly, in a few decades, you may not be able to get a canopy umbrella, but if you choose the right one this time, whether it is to help Empress Dowager Tian support the new king, or to assist the new emperor in his own government, the Su family can sit firmly in Diaoyutai and tear off a piece of meat from several other families.

The same old minister of the previous dynasty, in the past, Sun Chao'an was just a lackey under his great-grandfather, just because he served the Zhao family early, he actually became the second product of Tongping Zhangshi; The ancestor of the Duke of Protector is just a small hundred households, and now his great-grandson can attack the title of Yipin. The dynasty has changed, the emperor has changed, how many chickens and dogs have been thieves, and how many prominent families have disappeared.

When he came out to be an official, he was never afraid of taking chestnuts from the fire, but he was afraid that his hand was stretched out to the wrong pot.

There are still too few people who can use it...... Su Quan looked at his brother-in-law who was frowning and didn't know what he was thinking, and carefully calculated the resources that could be used, and couldn't help frowning.

As the middle of the imperial history, although he is already the deputy of the imperial history platform, but those officials under him, you let him picket the official evil, correct the discipline, jump out and bite people, all of them are good hands. If you really start doing things, I'm afraid it's not as good as those officials who have accumulated years of experience.

Other people's families have more than five or six brothers to help, and few have prosperous in-laws to help, but they only hate that their parents died early, and the children in the clan are weak, not to mention cousins, and even the children in the clan are only a handful.

also blamed himself for getting married very late, he only got his eldest son Su Zhongchang at the age of twenty-nine, and later the concubine gave birth to a daughter, and it took nearly ten years for his wife to conceive a young son. Now if you want to get married, you can't get anyone.

Su Quan slowly put the teacup back on the table, and suddenly cheered up.

Zhongchang has already tied his hair, which is the age of the pro, although he has no fame at present, and he is the companion of the little emperor, so he naturally poked the label of "imperial party" on his body. But the road came out by itself, how can you eat the bowl and occupy the pot, but not be liquidated by others, it depends on the ability of the eater.

Thinking of meeting the inner temple Chongban riding Du Wei Tian Chu a few days ago, he talked about Princess Deyang who was in charge of the government in the old era like a joke.

Whether to make wall grass or choose wall head station, you should think about it.
