Chapter 399: Empress Changsun's admonition
Chapter 399
Li Chengqian sat in the study, and he didn't know what the eldest grandson Wuji was looking for him, and in normal times, the eldest grandson Wuji would not say that he had important things to talk about with him.
"Uncle, but what's the matter?" Li Chengqian sat there, poured tea for the eldest grandson Wuji, and asked.
"Well, the old man wants to know, are you very close to Wei Hao?" The eldest grandson Wuji stared at Li Chengqian and asked.
"This, uncle, Shen Yonggu's brother-in-law, and his own brother-in-law, Lone can't alienate him, besides, he is one of the courtiers that his father relies on, and Lone can't ignore him, right?" Li Chengqian heard it, smiled, and asked the eldest grandson Wuji, knowing in his heart that he had come to him for something.
"Your Royal Highness, listen to Lone's advice, stay away from him, don't look at this person as he is favored now, but once he loses power, many people will be implicated at that time, this person will act Meng Lang, sooner or later he will have to carry a big heel, you have to think about it clearly, don't get close to him because he is in power now!" The eldest grandson Wuji said directly to Li Chengqian.
"This, uncle, Lone and he are dating, not because he loses power, but because he is Lone's brother-in-law, this is family affection, you know, Lone and Lizhi have a very good relationship, and, well, although Shen Yong's character, there are indeed shortcomings? But to say? Didn't make any big mistakes, and the father? Still very happy with him? Uncle, if there is any misunderstanding between you? Is it okay for Lone to make peace with you? Li Chengqian sat there, looked at the eldest grandson Wuji and said.
"Is there a misunderstanding? Just what the minister thinks? If he does this, he will suffer a loss a long time ago, and it is dangerous to be with such a person? Or even threaten your crown princehood? You are not young now, Your Majesty is in the right year, if you don't go well, it is very easy to be suspicious of Your Majesty,
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince? You still have to listen to the minister's advice, and you must not associate with him? This person needs to be kept away? Of course, the minister also knows? He's a godmaster? Nengchen? But now, he can only be used by His Majesty, not by you, if His Majesty knows that you are close to him, he will definitely be suspicious of you at that time, Your Highness, you need to think about it! The eldest grandson Wuji continued to persuade Li Chengqian and said,
And Li Chengqian didn't believe what he said in his heart, one is that he had a good relationship with Wei Hao, and Wei Hao also helped him a lot.
The other is that the queen mother personally explained herself, and she wanted to teach him well, and he would become his right-hand man, and his father also explained to himself, saying that Wei Hao would help him a lot in the future, and he would be able to solve the things that many ministers in the court could not solve, and he would also pay attention to Wei Hao, and now that the eldest grandson Wuji said so, Li Chengqian was very suspicious of what his motives were.
However, now that the eldest grandson Wuji has said so, Li Chengqian can't refute him, so he can only smile and nod and say: "Well, what my uncle said is right, Lone will seriously consider it, and the character of Shen Yong is indeed a problem!" ”
"Well, Your Highness must remember that it is best to stay away from this person!" The eldest grandson Wuji saw Li Chengqian nodding, and he was also very satisfied.
"Yes, however, it's unrealistic to stay away completely, after all, he's Lone's brother-in-law." Li Chengqian continued.
"That's right, but it's okay to get by on face, after all, he is also the prince of the dynasty, and he is also your brother-in-law, but the affairs of the East Palace, don't let him know, the minister knows Liu Zhiyuan, this person is recommended by Wei Hao, and he can't be reused, the minister is worried that Liu Zhiyuan will tell Wei Hao about the affairs of the East Palace, so it's not good." The eldest grandson Wuji continued to speak,
And Li Chengqian was a little unhappy when he heard him say this, he was involved in the personnel arrangement of the East Palace, not to mention whether Liu Zhiyuan had the ability or not, whether he was wrong, this should not be said by him, even if Liu Zhiyuan was Wei Hao's person, it could not be said that it could be easily replaced, this was sent by Li Shimin,
On the contrary, during the time that Liu Zhiyuan was in the East Palace, when he assisted Li Chengqian in handling local affairs, he was very experienced and handled it very well.
"Well, it shouldn't be, Liu Zhiyuan, I investigated, if this person is Wei Hao's person, he would have been promoted a long time ago, just because he went to ask Shen Yong's brother-in-law, Shen Yong went to the Ministry of Officials to find out, and he didn't interfere with anything, originally the Ministry of Officials was ready to send him to the East Palace, please rest assured by this uncle,
In addition, Liu Zhiyuan, Lone also discovered that he is indeed a little capable, fifteen years of county orders, and the evaluation is good, so this person is in the East Palace, and he can assist Lone in handling state and county affairs! Li Chengqian immediately spoke for Liu Zhiyuan.
"Your Highness, if you are not afraid of 10,000, you are afraid of what if, what if he is Wei Hao's person?" The eldest grandson Wuji sat there, stared at Li Chengqian and said,
Li Chengqian looked at the eldest grandson Wuji with great displeasure in his heart, how could it be Wei Hao's person, if Wei Hao had such a scheming, he would still quarrel with those ministers, besides, Liu Zhiyuan's matter, he did hear Gao Shilian say it, it was not arranged by Wei Hao at all, but the eldest grandson Wuji now wants to kick Liu Zhiyuan out of the East Palace by himself, this is a bit excessive, just because of Wei Hao, he wants to kill all the people around Wei Hao, this Li Chengqian can't agree.
"Uncle, you're too careful, it's really okay, uncle, come to tea, don't talk about this, Lone knows, you said this for Lone's good, Lone thanks you, but, Shen Yong's matter, Lone will also take care of it, you can rest assured!" Li Chengqian said with tea and said to the eldest grandson Wuji,
The eldest grandson Wuji also glanced at Li Chengqian, knowing that Li Chengqian would not listen to him, and he was even more sad and angry in his heart, if he couldn't control Li Chengqian, and couldn't let Li Chengqian rely on himself thoroughly, then he had been acting in a low-key manner all these years, and it was not worth it at all, he could have served as the sixth Shangshu or even left and right.
But because he is the elder brother of the eldest grandson queen, in order to avoid the excessive power of his relatives, he deliberately avoided suspicion, did not go to the court to serve, and served in the East Palace, hoping to control the prince and let the prince rely on himself, which is the same.
Unexpectedly, since last year, Li Chengqian has not listened to his own words, of course, he will still listen to his own suggestions when dealing with the issue of government affairs, but apart from this, he basically does not listen to other things.
"Uncle, don't talk about Shen Yong, I know that Shen Yong does things, you look down on him, let's not talk about him, talk about my cousin and cousins, my cousin is now in the iron workshop, I heard that he is doing well, my father praised him several times, cousin them, uncle should also recommend them, and it is time to start exercising!" Li Chengqian didn't want to continue the topic, so he began to talk about the eldest grandson chong and them.
When the eldest grandson Wuji heard it, he felt uncomfortable, but he didn't dare to show it, so he could only talk about the matter of the eldest grandson rushing to them.
After chatting for a while, the eldest grandson Wuji took his leave,
As soon as he returned to his Qi State Mansion, a eunuch came to report that the queen wanted to see him in the Lizheng Palace, and the eldest grandson Wuji immediately went to the Lizheng Palace. The son and Li Zhi are also playing in it.
"Big brother, come, drink tea, I haven't been at home with big brother Lala for a while." Empress Eldest Sun said to Eldest Sun Wuji, and at the same time poured tea for him in her hand.
"Thank you, Queen!" The eldest grandson Wuji said very respectfully.
"Well, I want it at home, my sister-in-law, my nephews and nieces?" Empress Eldest Sun continued to ask.
"Okay, Hongfu from the queen's mother, it's all good!" Eldest Sun Wuji immediately nodded and said.
"Well, that's good, sister's side, you can't go out of the palace at will, I originally thought I was going home to have a look, but now that the weather is cold, my sister thinks, when the weather is warm, I'll go home and see my sister-in-law and nephew!" Empress Eldest Sun continued to smile.
"That's good, if you go back, others will see it, and they won't dare to bully our family." Eldest Sun Wuji said with a smile.
"Big brother, is someone bullying our family?" Empress Eldest Sun heard the voiceover and immediately asked.
"Eh, mother, someone doesn't take you seriously now!" The eldest grandson Wuji sighed deliberately and said very melancholy.
"Big brother, you can't, who doesn't know that you are the elder brother of this palace, who dares to bully you? Who is so short-sighted? "Empress Changsun is a little unconvinced, unless it is a blind person, otherwise, who would dare to bully Changsun Wuji, even if Changsun Wuji has no credit, no one dares to bully, not to mention, Changsun Wuji has a lot of credit for following His Majesty.
"Well, it's Shen Yong, Shen Yong has always been at odds with the old man, the old man was originally on the matter, but Shen Yong thinks that the old man is deliberately targeting him, yesterday outside the Ganlu Palace, saying that the old man retaliated against him, ha!" The eldest grandson Wuji said with a wry smile,
When Empress Changsun heard this, she reacted, daring that he came to sue Shen Yong, this is not the same thing as what she heard, and besides, those who advocated cutting the knight yesterday were Changsun Wuji and Hou Junji, of course, there are some inconspicuous ministers, but now, he actually sued first,
Hearing this, Empress Eldest Sun was a little unhappy in her heart.
"Big brother, how old is Shen Yong, what does he know, you, don't worry about him in general, there's no need, besides, he has made a lot of contributions to His Majesty, and he can be regarded as a capable minister, my sister still hopes that you can support each other with Shen Yong, big brother don't have conflicts with him." Empress Changsun still said with a smile, although she was unhappy in her heart, but she still had to smile, after all, the one in front of her was her own brother, after her parents died early, she was raised by her brother, and she still respected this eldest brother very much.
"Niangniang, it's not that I don't want to support each other with him, but this person is completely a villain, a businessman, you see, what has become of the court now? Many craftsmen no longer work in the Ministry of Industry, but go to the workshop, and, the Manchu Dynasty Wenchen, he has a better relationship with the eldest grandson Wuji, who does he have a good relationship with? How many times did you fight with those Wenchen?
Wei Hao did this, which is tantamount to losing the face of all our ministers, and he also said that our ministers don't learn and don't know how to do it, and the ministers really can't bear this! The eldest grandson Wuji sat there and continued to complain to the eldest grandson queen, and when the eldest grandson queen heard it, she looked at the eldest grandson Wuji with a sigh in her heart.
"Big brother, let's talk about ourselves, are you worried about him and Lizhi's affairs? Because of this, you have been doing something against Shen Yong, impeaching Shen Yong several times, and framing Shen Yong once? Empress Changsun was ready to say straight to the point, he didn't want the two of them to continue fighting, which was not good for himself or Li Chengqian, so he wanted to make things clear.
"This, there is no such thing!" Eldest Sun Wuji was stunned for a moment, and immediately shook his head and said.
"I think it's like, big brother, you are usually a very shrewd person, and for the sake of the court, you are also a person with a lot of merits, why can't you get by in the matter of Shen Yong? No matter how bad Shen Yong is, he is the future husband of Lizhi, the son-in-law of this palace, and your nephew and son-in-law.
Lizhi can't be with Chong'er, that's no way, and besides, if the two of them are not together, it's also good for the eldest grandson's family, why don't you understand? is to hope that Lizhi and Chong'er will get married,
Don't think that this palace doesn't know, Chong'er has a woman outside, and even has an heir, eldest brother, some things, my sister doesn't want to say it, after all, you are my brother, many things, I turn a blind eye, but this time, you are so kind to Shen Yong, this palace is very unhappy, very unhappy! Empress Eldest Sun stared at Eldest Sun Wuji and said in a very stern tone. The eldest grandson Wuji looked at the eldest grandson queen dumbfounded!
"You just said that Shen Yong's various things are not, well, haven't you seen Shen Yong's credit?" Empress Eldest Sun continued to stare at Eldest Sun Wuji and asked,
And the eldest grandson Wuji was stunned at the moment, he didn't expect that his sister called him over just to criticize himself, and he was so harsh, this was the first time in the world.
"Of course, Shen Yong must have merit!" The eldest grandson Wuji immediately spoke, still unconvinced.
"The credit is great, the credit you have seen, the disintegration of the family, now the court is taking scholars, there are many poor families who know to enter the court as officials, how many years has this been, how many generations have not done it, Shen Yong has done it, and now the family is completely suppressed by His Majesty,
Also, a lot of credits that you don't know, Your Majesty has not announced it, eldest brother, Shen Yong's ability, you are clear, such a person, why do you want to offend, this palace has never understood, why this cheap let Li Jing pick it up, let Cheng bite Jin, Yu Chi Jingde, Fang Xuanling picked it up,
You also have a daughter, you also need money, if you had a good relationship with Wei Hao at the beginning, plus this relationship on our side, these cheapness can still go to their heads, now you look at the situation of several of them, and then look at you, big brother, didn't you find out that Your Majesty deliberately let Wei Hao do this?
Because of this, it is the most beneficial for the court, and now the court has a lot more taxes, a lot of money, not from the Central Plains, but from the surrounding countries, in addition, the straight road has been repaired, for the Tang Dynasty to fight abroad in the future, how much help you also know, do these things, you need money!
Big brother, don't continue to embarrass Shen Yong, if you continue like this, it will be the eldest grandson family who will suffer at that time, and it will definitely not be Shen Yong! Don't regret it! Empress Changsun warned at Empress Changsun Wuji, and Changsun Wuji stared at Empress Changsun.
"Queen Mother, I don't understand, why you and Your Majesty trust Wei Hao so much, this person is not as simple as it seems, he looks like a fool, but he is actually more shrewd than anyone else!" Eldest Sun Wuji sat there, looked at Empress Eldest Sun and said in a low voice.
"Shrewd? That's good, this palace is worried that he is not shrewd, and he will suffer a loss when the time comes, as for you saying that he is not as simple as it seems, brother, this child, from ordinary people to Guogong, has also suffered so many losses, how much will he still have a memory, and he will not have a long memory, so isn't it over?
How about this child, I know better than you, it can be said that my sister has watched him grow step by step to the present, and can have the ability to have today, my sister is very happy, from a child who knows nothing, to now become an important minister of the court, eldest brother, Gao Ming is still young, my sister and Your Majesty, we have to choose some talents for Gao Ming, right?
Now the children of Chong'er and Fang Xuanling's family are good candidates, and Shen Yong is also, Shen Yong's ability to do things is incomparable to none of your ministers, brother, Shen Yong is the minister that His Majesty and I personally selected for Gao Ming, I hope that after the two of us leave, there is still a person in the court who can help Gao Ming, now Shen Yong is Gao Ming's brother-in-law, who will Shen Yong not help him? Can't you help King Wu?
Big brother, you have also done a lot for Gao Ming, and I hope Gao Ming is good, right? Now Your Majesty is still in the prime of life, and Gao Ming is older, eh, big brother, you haven't thought about it, the emperor is in the prime of life, the prince is young, what accidents will happen, my sister has always been very careful, I hope to strengthen Gao Ming's status in His Majesty's mind, don't let people easily shake Gao Ming's status, I believe you think so too, brother! Empress Eldest Sun sat there, and also looked at Eldest Sun Wuji very quietly and said, at this moment, Eldest Sun Wuji was also shocked in his heart, but he still didn't want to reconcile with Wei Hao like this.
"Big brother, if Gao Ming doesn't succeed to the throne, will the eldest grandson family still be able to maintain that glory? You and Shen Yong can be said to have the same goal, so why can't you get along well? Shen Yong has helped Gao Ming do a lot of things, and he has also helped Gao Ming say a lot in front of His Majesty, otherwise, Gao Ming would not be where he is today, and Gao Ming would not be so mature now! Empress Eldest Sun continued to say to Eldest Sun Wuji.
"This, eh!" Eldest Sun Wuji sighed.
"Brother, my sister doesn't want you to have a conflict with him, who do you have a conflict with, my sister is not worried, but he can't, there are still many things you don't know, Shen Yong has helped His Majesty do a lot of things, a lot of credit, it can't be said publicly, you are so hostile to Shen Yong, Your Majesty will only snub you when the time comes!" Empress Eldest Sun continued to warn Eldest Sun Wuji and said.
