Chapter 823: People Must Have a Bottom Line After All (27)
Everyone dispersed, Li Xun did not leave, waited for a while, and then went to the imperial garden not far from the Ming Zheng Palace, where they saw Zhao Xun and Sheng Shitong chatting happily.
Although Sheng Shitong was born in a family, he did not have the superior, arrogant and ignorant temperament of the children of the family, but he was upright, loyal to the country and the emperor.
Xiao Lezi saw Li Xun coming from this side, so he lowered his head and whispered a reminder to Zhao Xun.
Zhao Xun looked up, waved his hand at Li Xun with a smile, and motioned for him to come over and speak.
"Weichen see the emperor."
Li Xun walked up to the front and bowed.
Zhao Xun waved his hand and said with a smile: "Cousin, there are no outsiders here, so there is no need to be polite." β
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Li Xun glanced at Sheng Shitong, and Zhao Xun said this, obviously to him, to show closeness and wooing.
Li Xun sat aside and said softly: "The emperor is tired after a day's work, so he should have a good rest, so as not to hurt his spirit." β
Zhao Xun chuckled and said: "The scenery here is good, smelling the fragrance of flowers and listening to the birds' song can also relieve the fatigue in my heart." β
Recently, Zhao Xun's attitude towards Li Xun has changed a lot, in the past, Zhao Xun was always entangled in a problem, that is, Li Xun has the status of a relative, and his rights cannot be too big, and he should be suppressed.
But after the painstaking persuasion of Lu Baijiang and Liu Zhigu, Zhao Xun slowly understood a truth, he did not look down on Li Xun's humble background, had no culture, and was also afraid of Li Xun's achievements in Longyou and the Western Regions, afraid that he would grow up and form a relative to interfere in politics and threaten himself, but that is all in the future, for now, Li Xun does not have any threat to himself, if he uses it well, it can become a great help.
And because of the connivance and appeasement of some people's exclusion and slander of Li Xun, the Queen Mother Li Yi was extremely dissatisfied with this, plus some unspeakable reasons, resulting in the end of the coup d'Γ©tat, for a long time, Li Yi and Zhao Xun, the relationship between the two was very cold and estranged, the song that suddenly came out of the city, although under Wang Qili's thunderous means, was quickly quelled, but the occurrence of this incident also made Zhao Xun wake up like a dream, the wheel of heaven, the son and filial piety are natural and righteous, and it is the beginning of all morality, No matter what the reason, if there is a gap between the mother and son, it is the son's fault, and he will only be condemned and abused by everyone.
Lu Baijiang once told Zhao Xun that no matter how great Li Xun's power is, how can he be greater than the emperor? With the emperor, you are the son of heaven, you can't control the overall situation of the world, don't say whether Li Xun can become a trend, even if he really becomes a power, what can he do?
Just like Li Zhong, what a hero, but his background, his political direction, it is impossible to be tolerated by the family gate valve, so Li Zhong no matter how great the power, his sharpness will only point to those gate valve families, not the emperor, Li Xun and Li Zhong are actually the same truth, because of the emperor's kindness and righteousness, because of the bloodline, and the constraints of morality and benevolence, they can only follow the emperor closely and become the opposite of the gate valve family, since it is the opposite, the enemy of the enemy is a friend, why doesn't the emperor take advantage of it?
Li Xun smiled and said, "The emperor is so Yaxing." β
Zhao Xun said: "Li Xun, you suddenly entered the palace today, there should be something." β
"I can't hide anything from the emperor."
Just now in the main hall, because of that atmosphere, Li Xun didn't have a chance to speak, and now he took the initiative to find Zhao Xun, naturally he wanted to finish the matter.
Li Xun told Zhao Xun in detail about the two things in the military department.
After listening to this, Zhao Xun pondered slightly.
Sheng Shitong glanced at Li Xun, and then said to Zhao Xun: "Your Majesty, anything seems to be neither big nor small, but if it is allowed to develop and is indifferent, it will often become a big trouble and burn yourself." β
Zhao asked, "What is Sheng Aiqing's opinion?" β
Sheng Shitong thought for a while, and then said: "Hezhou Governor Yang Chi, for the sake of his soldiers, he dared to show such a fierce twist and turn, it is not difficult to see that this person has an upright temperament, righteousness in his heart, not for selfishness, such a courtier, the emperor should pay attention to it, as for the matter of Zhezhou, although the Qiang people are not many in number, but they are all good at fighting ruthlessly, do not take it lightly, once the situation is out of control, it is likely to cause a chain reaction, it is better to let Shuzhou Jiedu make Yang Daoan send three or five thousand troops to Zhezhou, the number is not much, The money and food required were also provided by the imperial court, and Yang Daoan had no reason to refuse. β
Sheng Shitong's meaning is very simple, the two things Li Xun said are not a big deal, but they are a little urgent, and they can't be taken lightly, the imperial court is now financially eased, and if you can use money to solve the problem, don't make it more troublesome.
Zhao Xun nodded, feeling that Sheng Shitong's suggestion was very good, so he said to Li Xun: "Li Xun, what do you think?" β
Li Xun said with a smile: "Master Sheng is reasonable, and the minister deeply agrees. β
Li Xun also felt that Sheng Shitong's suggestion was good, and he also heard from his words that after this period of rectification, the situation of the household department has improved greatly, and this money and food is not a problem.
Zhao Xun said lightly to Xiao Lezi: "Tell Zhai Hongliang what Fang Cai meant, and let him draft the decree and send it to the household department and the military department." β
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Xiao Lezi bowed down to receive the order.
A few people chatted again, and seeing Zhao Xun's tired look on his face, Li Xun and Sheng Shitong immediately got up and said goodbye and left.
Li Xun and Sheng Shitong have no friendship, and Sheng Shitong is very taciturn, Li Xun said a few words, he didn't reply, so Li Xun didn't say much, and the two of them went out of the palace all the way.
Li Xun was about to get into the carriage and leave, but Sheng Shitong suddenly stopped him: "Li Xiangguo, please stay." β
Li Xun turned around and asked, "What else is going on with Master Shan?" β
Sheng Shitong walked closer and said softly: "Your Majesty has summoned the Western Regions six times in a row from the succession to the present, so that it can prepare money and grain to transport Fengjing, the number is getting bigger and bigger, I don't know much about the situation in the Western Regions, but how rich it is, there is also a degree, and the emperor is so drawn from the bottom of the kettle, I'm afraid it is not a good thing for the Western Regions." β
Li Xun glanced at him and said lightly: "You are in charge of the household department, isn't the more money and food, the better?" β
"The trickle is long, the means are too fierce, and I am afraid that there will be nothing in the future."
"The emperor attaches great importance to you, you can tell the emperor these truths directly."
Sheng Shitong shook his head: "I am in charge of the household department, often bitter words, the emperor is now drawing a large amount of money and grain to the household department, if I have other words, but I am not a person inside and outside, some words, others may be better to say." β
After saying this, Sheng Shitong bowed his hand to Li Xun, and then walked away.
Li Xun watched Sheng Shitong leave, stood in place and pondered for a while, then got into the carriage and left.
