Chapter 159: Raising Tigers is a Problem
"The concubine understands!" Zhai's face turned pale when she heard this, the Wang family is like that, and now the power is tilted towards the government and the opposition, if she is not careful, she will never recover, she naturally doesn't want Situ Xuankang to let the entire Situ Mansion fall into such a situation, now the Situ Mansion is brilliant enough, no matter how much it is, it is just icing on the cake.
"Even if it's a person from the house, don't say much, this matter will end here!" Situ Xuankang added, "You can write a letter to Xiao Liu in a while, let them stay in Weihai for a while, and come back when the matter here is over, don't say anything else!" ”
"Good!" Zhai nodded in response.
In the past few days, the depressed people in Situ's mansion have almost been out of breath, and the people below are silent one by one for fear of being angered by the masters, and the few little maids who are going to Ningshou Courtyard early in the morning to serve are even more cautious.
"Zhai, look at the good son you taught, he is used to causing trouble for the house, what kind of person is not good-looking, but he is interested in such a marriage contract, look at it now!" Although Mrs. Situ doesn't like her eldest son, if Situ Xuankang becomes the prime minister, she will also have a light on her face as a biological mother.
The old lady Situ does not forget to count the number of meals every day when she sees the Zhai family, this is already a necessary drama in the house every day these days, the old lady seems to have completely forgotten that the matter of taking a concubine is the first thing she picks first, and it is also the young lady of the Liu family who she approves of, and the people who go to the Liu family are also sent by her.
Zhai Shi only lowered his head and didn't speak, but he was very angry in his heart, this matter was not all a good thing provoked by her mother-in-law in front of her, but now she wants her son to bear the infamy, which is really unpleasant.
"Yes. Second sister-in-law, look at what Rokuro is doing! The third lady stepped forward to help and said, she didn't care about the second master as the prime minister and the imperial history, and looked at the second room and was now gloomy. She couldn't help but be happy in her heart, "You can also persuade the second brother, it's okay not to be the prime minister, so as not to cause trouble to the saint due to lack of ability, look at this noisy, utilitarian face, we don't have the face to go out to meet people!" ”
"Shut up!" The old lady shouted. The third lady's undisguised schadenfreude made her want to ignore it, she still wanted to be the prime minister's mother!
"You go back and let the second child carry it for me, and you have to carry it when you die. If you can't become a prime minister, you won't have to see me in the future! Old Madam Situ said angrily.
"Yes!" Zhai Shi replied softly, but she sneered in her heart, she wanted to see if the old lady really didn't see the second master in the future, if she didn't see her, she would be very happy.
The little maid serving tea was holding the teapot on the side, and she couldn't help but shiver a little. I don't know if I want to go up and add tea at this time. If you go up, you are afraid that it will make the old lady angry, yesterday there was a maid who was scolded by the cane, if the old lady does not go up for a while, if the old lady has no tea to drink, she is afraid that it will not be easy, this Ningshouyuan errand is getting more and more difficult to do!
When the little maid was struggling with whether to be scolded for dereliction of duty, or to be scolded by a cane for a reason, Mrs. Situ shouted: "Why don't my old woman even let me drink tea!" ”
The little maid was startled, and hurriedly knelt down and said, "The slave doesn't dare." Slaves don't dare! The old lady spares her life! ”
"What? You think you deserve to die, don't you? Old Madam Situ shouted angrily, "Drag this who doesn't take the master in his eyes out and kill me with a cane!" ”
The maid looked at the old lady in disbelief. suddenly collapsed on the ground, but still said: "The old lady spares her life, the old lady spares her life!" ”
The second lady doesn't care, she happily lets the old lady make a foolish move over there, and according to her mother-in-law's temperament, it would be better if someone else spoke, if she really opened her mouth, it would be adding fuel to the fire, and the little maid who would not necessarily die was also dead, as for the third lady, she naturally would not care about the life and death of a maid, and the second master's career had nothing to do with her, and it was impossible to expect her to speak.
Sure enough, just as he was looking, he saw the third lady shouting to the maid and servant woman on the side: "Don't you drag this cheap hoof out, haven't you heard the old lady's words?" At this time, she didn't hurry up and reveal the incident that made the old lady angry just now.
"Mother, I'm afraid this is not appropriate!" The fifth lady glanced at the little maid who was paralyzed on the side and got up and gave a blessing, "Now that it is already an eventful season, any small matter at this juncture will be constantly magnified by those officials, if there is a life in the house at this time, I am afraid it will be detrimental to the career of the second brother!" ”
The big room and the fourth room have always been indifferent, and the uncle is the fourth master is a concubine, and the old lady doesn't treat them as daughters-in-law at all, it's just a little better than the next person, and the only one who can speak at this time is the fifth lady.
The old lady glanced at the fifth lady and pouted: "Then send the person to the Huan bathroom!" ”
The little maid escaped and couldn't help but soften on the ground, and hurriedly buckled her head at the old lady: "Old lady Xie, old lady Xie!" Then he turned to the fifth lady on the side and said, "Slave thank the fifth lady!" ”
Although this Huan bathroom is not a good place, let alone in winter, if the old lady deliberately makes it difficult, she is afraid that she will not be able to get good, but compared with death, it is at least a way to live.
The matter of this little maid did not cause much turmoil, only the subordinates who were waiting on the side waited more carefully one by one, looking at the maid who was dragged out, and couldn't help but sigh in their hearts, quite sad that the rabbit died and the fox died.
At this time, there was another round of verbal swords and swords above the court, and in addition to Situ Xuankang, the highest voice was Wu Qiming, the current secretary of the military department.
"That's it!" Emperor Jianwu looked at the ministers under him, and couldn't help frowning, "If you continue to argue like this, you can't figure it out, whether it's Wu Aiqing or Situ Aiqing, they are both in important positions, if there is a transfer, you can't say that you have to delay for a long time, why don't you choose someone again!" ”
Everyone couldn't help but look at each other after listening to Emperor Jianwu's words, this time the competition was obviously a competition between Emperor Jianwu and the Queen Mother, and now listening to Emperor Jianwu meant that both sides made a step to re-select a candidate, and now Emperor Jianwu first proposed a concession, and the initiative was in his hands.
"It's up to Captain Gongsun!" Emperor Jianwu's sharp eyes swept over the people under him, if these people still dare to be meaningful, they will blatantly not give him the face of being an emperor, "If all Aiqing has no objections, it will be decided like this!" ”
Situ Xuankang took the lead in bowing and shouting: "Holy Wisdom, long live my emperor, long live, long live!" ”
"Wechen thank you, long live my emperor, long live, long live!" Gongsun Taiwei didn't react for a while, but then reacted, and immediately stepped forward and bowed.
No matter what they thought in their hearts, all the ministers respectfully shouted long live.
At this time, the Queen Mother, who heard the news, sneered and looked at the north, turning the Buddha beads in her hand, she did not believe in Buddhism, only believed in herself, and worshiped the Buddha just because of "the Queen Mother's compassion".
His adopted son is really getting more and more difficult, using Situ Xuankang as a shadow has attracted all their attention here, but he has already laid out the back move quietly and is waiting to catch her off guard.
"The mourning family knows, you should retreat first!" The Queen Mother didn't look at the eunuch who was kneeling down, but don't think that she could do anything with her, if the position of the military department was vacant at this time, she would really not be able to make a candidate.
In order to avoid corruption in the six departments, in addition to Shangshu, the people of the six departments will basically be transferred every three or five years, and the current two military servants are both Wang Chengxiang's people, if Wu Qiming is transferred at this time, then the military department will really be completely controlled by Wang Chengxiang's hands, the queen mother doesn't want to see such a situation, and now she is getting more and more unable to control this person, it is really a tiger for trouble.
The little eunuch at the bottom glanced at the queen mother at the top and pushed it out quietly.
At this time, in the imperial study, Emperor Jianwu was standing opposite Gongsun Taiwei, and now it should be Gongsun Cheng: "Gongsun Aiqing, I hope you don't let me down!" ”
Gongsun Yuzhan bowed and said: "Weichen must bow down for the saint!" "He didn't know the situation at all about the dark horse that suddenly ran out, Emperor Jianwu didn't have too much contact with him in advance in order not to make extraneous branches, Gongsun Yuzhan lamented in his heart that he didn't know if it was a pie or a discus that fell from the sky!
"It's good that Aiqing understands!" Emperor Jianwu nodded with satisfaction, the power of the Taiwei was supposed to be to manage the military, but now that Prime Minister Wang Cheng firmly controls the military department, it is impossible for the army to let the Taiwei really take power, and now both he and the Queen Mother have firmly grasped the military power in their own hands, but this Taiwei from the first rank is already in vain.
It is because Gongsun Yuzhan does not have much real power, although the Gongsun family is also a big family, but only Gongsun Yuzhan is the only one who enters the office, and Emperor Jianwu confirmed the candidate after weighing left and right, but he did not dare to speak out.
He has never had much contact with Gongsun Yuzhan, and if he suddenly contacts Gongsun Yuzhan for no reason, it will inevitably arouse suspicion, and he will not be able to catch them off guard at that time.
"In the future, the Ministry of Officials, the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Industry will rely on Aiqing!" Emperor Jianwu observed Gongsun Yuzhan for a long time before he said, after all, he still needs to get Gongsun Yuzhan's loyalty, since he wants to get his loyalty, it is inevitable to pay some trust in advance.
"Wechen must do his best!" Gongsun Yuzhan did not shirk and bowed down.
This is also his surrender to Emperor Jianwu, Gongsun Yuzhan is very clear in his heart, although these three have been handed over to him, but whether he can really master it depends on whether he can use it for Emperor Jianwu.
This saint is not a fool, he has been controlling the Ministry of Rites all these years, and he has the right to control the talents selected by the imperial examination, and he also controls the appointment of the officials in charge of the Ministry of Officials, so it is not too difficult to quietly arrange individuals in small places.
