240.Chapter 240
Since meeting Kuang Min, Qin Wan has been deeply touched: "I have long suspected that the person behind Ji Qing's 'Lu' is from the palace, but I didn't expect it to be him. ”
Kuang Min's loyalty to the saint is undoubted, even if the saint asks him to commit suicide, he will not say a word, draw his sword and kill himself, who would have thought that there would be such a play?
Then again, isn't Chang Qing loyal to King Wei and doing all the things that hurt nature and reason for King Wei's great cause? But how can King Wei's heart's 'open-mindedness' and courage be compared with that of a saint?
"He is only loyal to the saint, others are just carrying it, the Mu family has cut off the Ji family's way forward, such a deep hatred, how can he be a man if he doesn't repay it?" Pei Xi is very calm, "People change, their identities change, their status is different, their relatives and friends, and even one or two unintentional words will make a good relationship between people change...... Husbands and wives with common interests are still inseparable, let alone master, servants, and friends? Besides, such a big thing, although many people follow it for the sake of wealth, there are also some people who are 'forced' to be helpless. No matter what kind of person is, in the final analysis, they all value 'sex' life, not for merit, but for no fault! "For the vast majority of people, although glory and wealth are good, they must also have a life.
Qin Wan bowed his head lightly, and became interested again: "You say, what excuse did Kuang Min use to leave the palace?" ”
"It's too hard for me." Pei Xi was very calm, "If I could know so many secret things, I wouldn't be where I am now." ”
Qin Wan, who had broken the foundation of King Wei, was very happy, and Kuang Min, who hurried back to the palace, thought of the sage's dislike for Zhong Jieyu, his dislike for King Wei, and then thought about Princess Leping's style, in addition to anger and guilt, he also had a feeling of "it was really so".
He followed the saint when he was a child, and witnessed the saint strategizing, breaking the south of the Yangtze River, quelling the rebellion, performing the supreme, and striving for the "fine" for decades, creating a peaceful and prosperous era for more than 30 years. Over the years, he has been a little close to King Wei because of Ji Lan's matter, not like a saint, even if he wants to 'hand' over the country to King Wei, he still doesn't like this son.
Only once did he contradict the opinion of the saint, and he was slapped a few times by reality, although Kuang Min had the same humble smile on his face as always, he hated King Wei to the extreme in his heart.
Kuang Min's trip this time was ordered by the Holy Order, and he would come to do 'private' affairs after finishing his official business. The sage knew that he had a house outside, adopted a child, studied and studied, and did not see any of them really promising, all of them lived a plain and stable life, but when Kuang Min was very lonely, he turned a blind eye. Seeing that Kuang Min was coming, the sage didn't ask him about his itinerary, let alone send someone to follow him secretly, but only asked, "How is the investigation?" ”
"Chengguo Gong's Zhuangzi in the north of the suburbs of Beijing is indeed a lot of people in and few people out. Climb to the top of the mountain next to Zhuangzi and look into the distance, if the cavalry is dispatched by the camp on the outskirts of Beijing, although it is not clear at a glance, it is also quite clear. Kuang Min's mind had calmed down, and he respectfully reported the situation he had investigated.
The sage listened and paced left and right: "Chengguo Gong's 'temperament' is sparse, but he remembers the sense of proportion, and his 'friends' are mostly literati and pure guests, and he does not touch noble families, and rarely wades into green forests and grasses. "Even if they have always harbored wolf ambitions, it has taken several generations to do a good job of superficial work, not to mention that the saint does not have real evidence in his hands, and even if he does, it is easy to be beaten upside down.
Even after many years of being a self-respecting emperor, the sage has always paid great attention to the proportions of his life, and he strives to be fair and just, rewarding meritorious deeds and punishing mistakes. Even if he has to wronged one party for the sake of political considerations, he will try his best to make compensation, just like Ji Lan's matter, why does Kuang Min not complain about the saint, but only hates the Mu family, and even neglects Prince Huaixian? It was really that the fight between King Liang and the Mu family was too fierce at that time, and the sage had to take action to protect the Mu family, but he did not forget Ji Lan. It is said to be depreciating, but in fact, it is a flat tone, but in the eyes of the world, Beijing officials are always more noble than local officials. If it weren't for Ji Lanqi's small 'sex' and couldn't withstand repeated unwarranted disasters, and if he waited for another ten or eight years, he didn't have the opportunity to turn around and return to Beijing, how could he be ill and die of depression?
In order to protect the people from foreign plunder, King Rongxiang refused to cooperate with foreign races, thus losing the opportunity to win the Central Plains. Cheng Guogong has always been very peaceful, not involved in the struggle for the throne, not coveting real power and important positions, and even avoiding talking about court affairs. Compared with Chengguo Gong, the acting king can be regarded as 'meddling' in political affairs, after all, he has accepted many children of noble families as 'attendants' guards, although he is helping King Wei to do favors.
Such a peaceful family, the ancestors have such an aura, whether it is out of consideration for the good treatment of the Chengguo people, or for the scruples of the influence, it is not good for the saint to do anything to the Chengguo Mansion.
The emperor did something to the heroes, his wife, and even the cool officials who have been following him, although he is nine out of ten, after all, no one is stupid enough to fight against the emperor all the time, anyway, it is someone else who dies and not himself, but their hearts will be cold, and their spines will be bent. When the heart is cold, I will not think of making some political achievements and seeking some well-being for the people, but will desperately make money, which is quite a bit of a drunken meaning today; The backbone is bent, today you can grovel to the emperor, sit back and watch the other party point the deer as a horse, and tomorrow you can bow down to the invaders and pay reparations.
Although the sage knows that thousands of generations are just a lie to deceive himself, and the royal family has lasted for hundreds of years, he will eventually produce unworthy descendants and lose the country, and he does not want the bad influence to start with himself. Kuang Min figured out the sage's intentions, and had prejudice against the King of Wei, on the way to come, he had pondered the things of the past few years over and over again, and always felt that the King of Wei was extremely inappropriate, so he made up his mind to show the other party's face, so he said: "Sage, the old slave has some stupid knowledge, and I don't know whether to say it or not. ”
"After so many years, you still have such a temper, but you are worthy of the word 'prudence'." The saint shook his head with a smile and said helplessly, "Say it! ”
Prudence is the word given to Kuang Min by the sage, and Kuang Min boasts that he has lived up to his prudence over the years, but only ...... As soon as he thought of King Wei, a nameless fire surged in his heart, and he directly looked at each other with the worst eyes, and dug up the pit without mercy: "The old slave thinks about it left and right, and always feels that Su Shizi and Master Gao's line is too smooth, Su Shizi said that Meng Huai has a problem, and Meng Huai, a unique Qing official, is really a little unclear; Su Shizi said that the wealthy businessman Wang's family had a problem, and their family really made weapons 'privately', and they didn't take the slightest detour. In such a big case, it took only half a year to get the account books and directories, and then something happened...... Su Shizi is young in the end, and the tall man is not easy to screw with the world, and it is unknown if he really wants to step into someone else's trap! ”
The saint had some doubts about the Chengguo Mansion for a long time, and he had been watching them carefully over the years, although he knew that they were not as peaceful as they had come out, but he had not found out anything major in the end. He also knew in his heart that the kings could do anything in order to seize that chair, and it was not strange to contact the Chengguo Mansion. Then there are the descendants of the rest of the princes, looking at themselves hiding in Tibet, it is best to be just a common people, and they have to be afraid, afraid that the government will find out their identities, and then look at the wealth of the Chengguo Mansion, their eyes are red, and it is possible to take the opportunity to plant false accusations. Meng Huai is also an example of the Han 'Gate' raising his son as an official, and he 'stimulates' to encourage the world's scholars to forge ahead, which is really eye-catching, and it is not easy to deal with it casually.
Kuang Min knew that the sage was careful, and secretly confessed his guilt, and while pit the king of Wei, he did not forget to say good things for Qin Wan and the acting king: "Su Shizi has been missing for more than half a month with the account book, and the news is afraid that it will be impossible to cover it, if the county lord knows, maybe he should be so sad!" ”
Su Yuruo really suffered some misfortune, and it was this kind of situation where he fell short, even if he died, the grief was limited, Qin Wan ......
That's it, the husband's family is insufficient, and the mother's family just makes up for it.
Because of Su Yu, the sage had a trace of doubt and 'confusion' about the King of Wei, and he originally felt that there were some ridiculous thoughts, but at this moment he had his head in his heart, and he pondered for a moment, and then said: "Summoning the king into the palace and letting the people who serve him retreat." ”
When the acting king Qin Ke was summoned into the palace by the angel, he didn't know what had happened, and the sage was also direct, and after retiring everyone, he came directly: "I 'want' to make you the prince, what do you think?" ”
Hearing the sage say this, Qin Ke was completely stunned.
He wasn't surprised that the saint wanted to make him the crown prince, after so many years, he himself had a few catties and a few taels, and he knew in his heart that it was strange that such a big burden was 'handed over' to him. He was shocked, Qin Wan asked him, do you want to imitate King Gong of the East China Sea, if you want, you can 'hand' it over to me. It was only a few days later, and the sage asked him if he wanted to be the prince? When did his 'daughter' have such great ability?
Qin Ke was confused, he couldn't understand what Qin Wan had done, but in the eyes of the saint, the eldest son was stunned, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
It's such an adult, and it's honest to this point...... Thinking of this, the saint's heart also softened, and he said, "I am not bluffing you, but all to protect you, do you understand?" ”
Qin Ke came back to his senses, heard the sage's heartfelt words, and then looked at the former heroic and heroic father's body, showing his old age, and tears couldn't help but fall: "Son, son understands-"
Seeing that Qin Ke agreed so quickly, the sage couldn't help but ask, "...... Do you really understand? ”
"My son will refuse!" Qin Ke said honestly, "If it's not enough, let your son hide in the mountains." Speaking of this, he was a little worried, "Or, or don't change your son's title?" You chased Feng Kun'er to be the king of Jinyang County, and you have already made the imperial history focus on the backyard of the acting king's mansion......" There was a little complaint in his tone.
Seeing the eldest son so knowledgeable, the saint was greatly relieved.
Although he is a generation of heroes, he is old and can't see it, and he is a little left-left in key matters. He is ashamed of the king, and if he wants to make amends, he can't allow others to act recklessly. Hearing that the acting king didn't even dare to accept the title of King of Jin, his heart was sour, but he also made up his mind.
