259. Officialdom
Warat's power and territory continued to expand, and the achievements over the years made Ling Yexian's attitude towards the imperial court more and more strong, and his subordinates burned, killed, looted, and did all kinds of evil. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info border soldiers have the heart to fight, to teach Wara a lesson, and there is no movement at the end of the court.
Folk gossip spreads.
Under the continuous transmission of reports about Warat, the civil and military officials of the imperial court held different attitudes, with the military attachés advocating war, some civil officials advocating reward and bribery first, and some holding a middle attitude.
Seeing that the emperor was silent on the dragon chair, there was no shortage of opportunistic people, and secretly feasted his colleagues to discuss what the emperor liked. It doesn't matter if you send troops or not, as long as the emperor is happy, as long as they can still receive money and live a stable life.
In the past few days, hundreds of officials have moved around frequently in private.
Only Su Mansion, after Su Zhi retreated to the court, he often closed his door and did not see outsiders.
When Zhu Qizhen heard the news, he bowed his head slightly, praising Su Zhi for being an official for many years, and he could still maintain an upright attitude and not form a party with hundreds of officials in private.
The chess pieces fall on the chessboard, the stars are listed, and the black and white sons each have a heaven and earth.
Su Zhi held the tea in one hand, sneered, and raised his eyes to look at Su He, who was sitting opposite: "Just your little trick, you still want to fool my sunspot?"
Su He smiled at the corner of his lips, looked down at the chessboard, and indeed that place was deliberately left for the sunspot to find out. When Su He raised his head again, his face was not obvious, and he said: "Knowing the son is Mo Ruo's father, the child admits defeat."
Su Zhi laughed and clapped his hands, "Practice hard for a few years, learn the arts, and do everything naturally and cautiously!"
The Yang family sent someone to the study to investigate. In the past few days, the old man has returned to his house and closed his door to see outsiders, only to recruit Su He to play chess together, and he didn't know how to come over to see Su Si, the friendship between father and son can be seen to be more and more unfamiliar. Yang wiped the cold sweat on Su Si's cheeks with a towel, and his willow eyebrows frowned.
Su Si felt it from her sleep and slowly opened her eyes, "Mother." ”
The day before yesterday, Su Si contracted a cold and often felt that his spirit was not good, so he was personally sent back to Su Mansion by the tutor.
Yang felt distressed, and touched Su Si's forehead and cheeks with his hand, which was still a little hot. Seeing that Si'er had only been asleep for a few days, her body had already lost a lot of weight. Yang's nose was sour, and tears welled up in his eyes, "Your father doesn't know to come to see you, he only knows how to play chess all day long, but it seems that he only has one son, and everything else doesn't matter." ”
Su Si reached out and grabbed Yang's hand, and reluctantly pulled out a smile: "Sister said, let's not fight with the eldest brother." When the opportunity arises later, it will naturally be obtained. If you fight for it, you need to pay a very painful price!"
Yang wiped his tears with a handkerchief and sneered: "What kind of foolish words did Yue'er say! Yue'er didn't fight for it at the beginning, so how could she become the princess? How can you be glorious and rich all in one?"
Su Si pursed her lips and interjected, "My sister is a side concubine."
"What are you afraid of? Sooner or later, my Yue'er will be Princess Yu's!" A smile flashed in Yang's eyes. In the future, Empress Dowager Sun and the people of Wang Guogong's Mansion will be convicted of plotting against usurpation, as long as King Yu is really not involved as Yue'er guessed, then with the relationship between King Yu and the emperor, then the position of concubine will naturally fall on Su Changyue.
The Yang family remembered Su Changyue's words that day: Let my father pay more attention, if the king of the servant is also implicated, we should find a reason to reconcile with the king of the servant, so as not to implicate the two sides of the Su Mansion and the grandfather Yang family......
Su Si saw her mother shaking her head and tugged at her sleeve with her hand, "Mother, do you remember the incident with your little uncle?"
"Who doesn't remember about him?" Yang's face was gloomy and unhappy.
"My sister said that the incident with my little uncle was fueled by my eldest brother behind his back. Otherwise, with the background of the Yang Mansion, it would be impossible to make such a big fuss!"
Footsteps could be heard outside the door.
The words that Yang wanted to say choked in his throat, and he only heard the chorus of the maids and women who were waiting outside. Yang hurriedly got up and greeted him out, smiling: "Master."
"Is Si'er awake?" Su Zhi stopped and looked at Yang. Before Yang answered, Su Zhi looked at her red and swollen eyes, obviously just cried, Su Zhi bypassed Yang and walked inside, "The child is sick now, and he will be painless in the future, don't worry too much, but exhaust yourself." ”
"After so many years, I have such a pair of children, and the eldest one is married, and I also hope that this little one will have a future and fight for the lord and the house." Yang looked in the direction of the bed, frowned and said, "I heard that some people's children are burning too badly, and they wake up stupid."
Su Zhi met Yang's gaze: "That's the business of ordinary people's families." Our Su Mansion, no matter how bad it is, there will be no shortage of small money for doctors to diagnose and treat. ”
Hearing that the two of them were stiff for a while, Su Si pretended to have just come to his senses, opened his eyes and looked in their direction, trying to stand up and salute his father, but was pressed back by the person who walked over a few steps, Su Si raised his hand and rubbed his forehead, looking very uncomfortable. Su Zhi raised his hand and touched Su Si's forehead and cheek: "Why is it still so hot?"
"The doctor just left, and said that he would gradually get better after a few days of resting." Yang said on the side.
Su Zhi nodded: "If the doctor's medical skills are not good, let a few more doctors come in and take a look, don't delay Si'er's body."
Yang responded.
Su looked directly at the drowsy child with crimson cheeks in his arms, "What else is uncomfortable?"
"Headache, always want to sleep." As Su Si spoke, his eyelids kept sinking, and he replied vaguely. When he realized that sleepiness was about to invade his body, Su Si hurriedly opened his eyes, lest he really fall asleep, but instead added to the troubles of his mother and father. In the future, he has to limit his time to play.
"You sleep first, and Dad will call the doctor for you and take a look."
"Yes." After receiving the words, Su Si couldn't help but feel sleepy, closed his eyes and fell asleep. As soon as his body was light, he returned to the warm bed. I heard a faint voice in my ears, and I felt that the voice was erratic.
Since the Su Mansion has been closed and there are no outsiders, the entire mansion has been deserted, and the Yahuan mother-in-law does not dare to gather in private to wipe dominoes and place bets. Several doctors with superb medical skills and good reputation were introduced from outside the house, and people came and went to welcome guests and deliver tea.
All the major courtyards knew about the Grand View Garden.
Aunt Yuan and several other concubines took the maidservants to the Grand View Garden to have a look.
When the news was brought back by Xizhu, Su Sanyuan was sitting on the steps, watching Huanzi kick the shuttlecock with a few maids, and Jinghua counted on the side.
Hearing Xizhu's words, Su Sanyuan propped her chin and groaned silently.
Su He leaned against the pillar and said, "We should also go over and take a look."
Su Sanyuan originally thought that she would wait for the others to disperse later, and when she was not so lively, she would go over and have a look, and she also seemed sincere. Hearing Su He say this, he thought that it was too late to pass, and it was not interesting to meet Yang's cold words.
The two walked together outside the Grand View Garden, and happened to bump into Aunt Yuan, into the painting and others who came out of it.
Aunt Yuan stopped and said, "He'er, the master just wanted to send me over to you to ask a few words."
