Chapter 487: The courtiers are embarrassed
Beijing, Lin Mansion. ◢ with ◢ dream ◢ small ◢ said Щщшlā
Gao Ying was silent for a long time, looking at her husband listlessly, her eyes full of worry: "Xuanlang, what should we do?" ”
The eldest daughter saw her mother's rare words, her eyes turned red, and she bowed her head to admit that she had indeed met a few times in public with the Duke of Xingguo, and had some exchanges, and she had a good impression of the Duke of the Guilty Party, but she did not get to Cheng Dù, who was not a gentleman and did not marry. It's just that the girl is pregnant with spring, and she thinks about such a person in her heart.
No matter how much Gao Ying hated Suwo, he had to admit that Suwo's background, appearance, and talent were all there, and the younger generation in Beijing could hardly surpass him. Even when I saw him, didn't I feel pity for him, and felt that he talked well and was in an embarrassing situation? If = think about it now, I really sweat and shudder.
Su Wo alone threw off King Liang Jun a few streets, not to mention anything else. Thinking that she might marry the king of Liangjun, who killed her father and brother, was cruel and unkind, and could be called a "cousin" from the perspective of kinship, the girl was worried about the future while beautifying the person she liked again and again, which was also very normal.
Of course, Gao Ying is not good at accusing her daughter, she is affectionate, polite, likes someone, and does not hurt others, so what's wrong? Therefore, she was really sad and didn't know what to say.
Lin Xuan patted his wife's hand and said comfortingly: "It's okay, Your Majesty is benevolent, and has already helped us arrange the road." ”
His original worry was nothing more than being forced to get involved in the seizure of the heir, but Lord Chen Liujun had already brought back the message released by the emperor - your family, I will definitely take care of it. If you have the heart to compete for the position of prime minister, your eldest daughter will marry into the royal family; If you only want to be a fiefdom, your second daughter will marry into the royal family. Anyway, the royal family will marry you, and that's how I take care of you.
Qin Wan's approach helped Lin Xuan relieve the siege very skillfully, that is to say, no matter how he chooses, this matter does not involve standing in line, it is purely a position at the political level, whether it is advancing or retreating.
This made Lin Xuan embarrassed.
He has lived in Jiangnan for a long time, so he naturally knows that Qin Wan will definitely do something to Yanzheng, which is why he wants to return to Beijing.
The matter of "salt" is too troublesome, and once the salt policy is reformed, it is already a sure thing that he, the person in charge, will offend people everywhere. It's like Yuchi, repairing the southeast transport road, the merit is in the thousand autumns, but with the body of His Majesty's important minister and the eldest princess, he doesn't want to return to Beijing for three years and five years. Although Luoyang Ling is also a high authority, it is undeniable that this position is still a little far from the center, especially when the emperor does not like to control the eastern capital. Regardless of fame or benefits, it is still not as good as the prime minister.
Lin Xuan knew that if he didn't get it right, he would completely destroy his official reputation, and the children in his family would also be affected by Yan zhòng. Even if Qin Wan protects him, it is very likely that he will clear his name for half his life, and he will not be guaranteed in his later years, and he will end up being forced to become a leader. If you enter Beijing, even if you are just a six-book book, not the prime minister, in terms of security, it will definitely be better than Yangzhou Assassin History, but the power may be slightly inferior in some aspects, but it may not be inferior.
Even so, he was a little moved about staying in Jiangnan and involving salt politics. Because he knows that the prime minister may not be able to survive himself. But Yangzhou Thorn History, he is nine out of ten. If the salt administration does a good job, the rich and colorful stroke in the history is not worse than the prime minister. Does he want stability, or is he gambling on his political future?
Gao Ying didn't understand what Lin Xuan meant, but she also knew that whether it was her mother, husband or Qin Wan, she thought more than her. Just like back then, when she mentioned Su Rui's heroic posture to Qin Wan, Qin Wan could think that the four realms were not peaceful. She was convinced of her husband's judgment, and when she heard the words, she said: "That Qin Niang ...... so" Speaking of this, she really couldn't help it, her eyebrows frowned slightly, and she was very worried, "I look at Xing Guogong, as if I saw his father, and Wei - it's really not a good match!" ”
Lin Xuan made a "silence" action, and Gao Ying also realized that his words were inappropriate, no matter how bad Su Wo was, in the end, he was Qin Wan's eldest son, not something that they could dislike as courtiers. Even if she has a good relationship with Qin Wan and it involves her children, she doesn't dare to comment casually. What's more, Su Wo didn't see anything bad except that he wanted to be motivated by ********, but this thought was the biggest hidden worry, and it would also provoke the deepest guilt in Qin Wan's heart.
"The Duke of the Criminal State-" Lin Xuan wanted to speak and stopped, and was silent for more than a long time before he said, "The Duke of the Criminal State is a genius and wants to emulate His Majesty, but there is no martial arts, and there is no leader." Everything in our family is good, but I'm afraid that this 'shortcoming' will fall on this regret. ”
In just one sentence, it was shocking.
Lin Xuan has been in Jiangnan officialdom for 20 years, what kind of things have he never seen? This kind of major event involving the family naturally thought about it again and again, and finally figured out the meaning of Suwo.
Su Wo wanted to be the emperor, and he wanted to be the emperor very much, but Qin Wan refused to let him. Therefore, he wanted to find another way to accumulate strength, but this idea was seen by Qin Wan. And made a cage with flowers, locked Suwo in it, and guided Suwo, as a national prince, to have wealth and glory, but no resources, no way, and no guide. Especially after Princess Dayi died of illness, she was like a trapped beast in a cage, with no way out.
If you want to be an emperor, you must at least understand how the imperial court operates, how the army is managed, and what kind of doorway it has, right? When Qin Wan was in the past, there was Pei Xi in the text, and the Shen family in the Wu. Although it seems to be remote in the land of exile, the operation mechanism of the imperial court, under the teaching of his parents and Pei Xi, as well as the side teaching of Zhao Su from the perspective of the lower class, Qin Wan has a certain understanding of the civil and military generals, the upper and lower classes. Then the first emperor was obedient to her, as the eldest son of the emperor, the political resources were in hand, and he leaned without hesitation, Zhao Su, Xiao Yu, Shen Huai...... This is how these people's first steps came up.
Suvo does not have any of these precious resources.
Among the nobles, he has no guide and does not understand the intricate relationships among the nobles; Among the ministers, he has no guides, even if he attracts a few scholars, the other party still wants him to help them find officials, which is completely useless; Among the generals, he has no capital, and the masters sent to teach him to ride and shoot are all carefully selected by Chen Xuan and Chang Qing. Nothing superfluous will be said except teaching.
With Su Wo's intelligence, as long as he opened a crack in the door, he could lift the door, so he regarded the Lin family, which was supported by all forces, as a breakthrough. Lin Xuan knows this. But if he really became an in-law, Lin Xuanneng gave up his daughter to please the emperor, but he didn't guide this son-in-law at all, didn't he care what kind of life his daughter lived? That was his first child with Gao Ying, and they have always loved each other. Don't say that he is not such a person in the first place, even if he really does such a thing, it will make his mother-in-law and wife cold, what should the saint think?
Thinking of these messy things, Lin Xuan felt a headache.
In his opinion, there are pros and cons to working under Qin Wan, of course, the advantage is that this emperor is not suspicious or suspicious, and treats people generously; The disadvantage is that the lord is too clever and can see everything clearly, and he can't fool it at all. You can only weigh the weights and see how to choose the best.
Why isn't such a master ruthless? Wouldn't it be all right to make the eldest son "die violently"?
Wait a minute!
Lin Xuan suddenly thought of something, and asked his wife with a little doubt: "Who is the fairness of the criminal country good friends with?" What about Bo Wanghou? What is the relationship between the two brothers? ”
Bowanghou's surname is Yang Mingfan, and he is the half-brother of Su Wo, the prince of the criminal state, who was also raised by Qin Wan's side for a period of time when he was young, and then passed on to Princess Dayi as the heir's son.
Princess Dayi's maternal family, Hongnong Yang, has been in a state of collapse due to rebellion, and it just so happens that Bowanghou's biological mother is also surnamed Yang. Qin Wan simply changed the surname of Bowanghou, let him follow the surname of his two mothers Yang, and gave him a marquis.
When everyone saw it, they were also amazed, and decided that Bowanghou was a rare good fortune in the past. After all, no matter how glorious and rich other concubines are, most of them are pitiful to their fathers and ancestors, fighting for their own anger, or stained with the light of not having a brother. Only he had a lucky mother-in-law, not only did not fight, but was given a high position, which can be regarded as a rare blessing in the past.
When he asked this, Gao Ying also muttered: "Although the Marquis of Bowang and the Duke of Xingguo grew up together, they don't have much deed. I heard that Bo Wanghou doesn't like to learn literature, nor does he like to practice martial arts, and prefers those ways of businessmen. As you know, his biological mother, Madame Yang, is the head of the largest silk village in the capital, and he usually rolls in the brocade pile, and is very interested in these things. I think, for this brother, the criminal Guogong is afraid that he ...... "I don't like it a little, right?"
When Lin Xuan heard this, he couldn't help but regret: "Bo Wanghou is a person who understands. "Even if his daughter marries him, it's better than marrying the Duke of Xingguo!
Gao Ying also looked down on Bo Wanghou a little, holding the child to the door, not even a son of the outer room, not even a concubine, even if the Hou was sealed, he couldn't get into Gao Ying's eyes. Hearing Lin Xuan say this, Gao Ying couldn't help but be stunned: "Why did Xuanlang say this? ”
"Twenty years ago, when I first entered the capital, ordinary women subsidized their families with needles and chisels, or went to large families to work as maidservants, did short-term work, or begged temples and Taoist temples for almsgiving. The female dependents of the powerful families also read most of the Buddhist scriptures and Taoist treasures, and they don't know a lot of big characters. Lin Xuan said with emotion, "Your Majesty likes women to read poetry and books, but I don't like them to chant sutras with Buddhist beads at a young age." Powerful families rushed to let their children study, and also changed the practice of punishing younger generations and making them copy scriptures. Many civilian women would rather go to the silk village to work as a female worker for a few years, seeking a stable job, rather than be a maidservant again, groveling to others. ”
Gao Ying felt this more deeply than Lin Xuan, she was a good mother, and everything went well. Think about her sisters, but the daughter of the Duke of Guo doesn't know a few words, you fight for one or two pieces of clothing and jewelry all day long, and the whole Shenguo Mansion is crooked, and now that I think about it, I am really a little afraid.
