Volume 2 Tokyo Hua Menglu Chapter 45 Tong Guan

Tong Guan, Sun Tu is familiar with this name.

Although he didn't know much about the history of the Song Dynasty, he also knew that in the late Northern Song Dynasty, there was such a traitorous eunuch with the same name as Cai Jing and Gao Yu.

But Sun Tu also knew that Tong Guan in history must be far more powerful than he knew, just because he could become the commander of the three armies as a eunuch, and even the sixteen states of Youyun that he personally led his troops to capture (although the result was not worth boasting about), you can see how high his status in the court is. Now that he learned that he was actually a privy envoy, he did not dare to despise this person.

You must know that after the founding of the Great Song Dynasty, it learned the lesson of the demise of the former Tang Dynasty and the five dynasties, not only suppressing the power of the military generals, but also suppressing the power of the eunuchs, so that they had almost no chance to get ahead. At the end of the two Song Dynasty and more than 300 years, the eunuch who really reported his reputation was only Tong Guan, if he didn't have some real talent and learning, it was almost impossible, otherwise he might not even be able to grasp the military power.

Seeing that Sun Tu suddenly fell silent after hearing his true identity, Tong Mu's expression couldn't help but be a little nervous. He knew very well that his uncle had always had a bad reputation in the government and the opposition, and he had not been ridiculed for it, and he could still bear it before, but if even his own life-saving benefactor looked down on him because of this, it would be too uncomfortable.

"By the way, why did you come to Bianjing, Brother Sun?" Suffering from gains and losses, Tong Mu didn't dare to ask the other party's thoughts directly, but quickly diverted the topic.

Sun Tu casually explained his current situation, and finally said: "So the little brother has to be in Tokyo City for a while." In addition, the amount of tax money demanded by the household department is far higher than the amount I can afford. ”

"How unreasonable is that there should be such a thing!" Tong Mu also said indignantly, and then said: "Otherwise, let my uncle help you talk about ......" At this point, he hesitated for a while, and finally turned the topic back to his uncle, he couldn't help but glance at Sun Tu carefully: "I don't know what prejudice Brother Sun has against my uncle?" ”

Sun Tu was stunned for a moment, and only then did he understand a little, it turned out that the other party's expression was hesitant because of this, so he smiled and shook his head: "Although Taiwei Tong is always said to be a traitor, I think this statement may not be true, as the so-called hearing is false, seeing is believing, how many people have dealt with him, I am afraid that many people have never even seen his face, how can he make such an assertion?" That's just a crowd of people! This is where Sun Tu is stronger than most people in this era as a traverser, he is a person with independent thinking ability, and will not form an inherent judgment about someone or something because of some rumors and prejudices. Of course, this is also the reason why he is in Tong's Mansion at this time and is still talking to Tong Guan's nephew.

When Tong Mu heard this, he was in good spirits, and a happy smile appeared on his face: "Brother Sun is serious? It's not to comfort me, is it? ”

As soon as his voice fell, before Sun Tu could respond, a neutral voice came from outside the door: "Little baby, are you really from the bottom of your heart?" Do you really think so-and-so is not a traitor? Immediately, the door that had been hidden was pushed open, and a tall figure stood in front of the door.

Sun Tu turned his head a little unexpectedly, and saw a middle-aged man with a dark face, a sturdy body, and an extraordinary temperament staring at him thoughtfully up and down, the only thing that was a little strange was that he had a little less beard on his face, and his chin and lips were smooth, so that his eyes were not dazzling.

Tong Mu over there had quickly stood up from the seat at this time, and hurriedly stepped forward to salute: "Uncle, why don't you let someone spread the word when you come, I'll go over and say hello to you." ”

In fact, there is no need for Tong Mu to break it, Sun Tu has already guessed the identity of this person, so he quickly got up and stepped forward to salute, and at the same time, he was a little glad that if he had just said bad things about Tong Guan behind his back, he might have to suffer.

Only then did Tong Guan set his eyes on Tong Mu, and his gaze softened: "I heard that you suddenly got a sudden illness on the way, and you almost ...... That's why my uncle came to see you. But there was an unexpected bonus, and I actually heard such a statement. Are you the one who saved two nieces and nephews one after another? As he spoke, the others had already walked into the room, and naturally sat in the position of Tong Mu just now, who could only stand aside in front of the elders.

"Sun Tu has seen Taiwei Tong, and it was only a coincidence that he saved the two sons of your mansion, which is not worth mentioning." Sun Tu saluted again, but he also seemed neither humble nor arrogant, and answered calmly.

"Hehe, this is a bit too modest, you have really helped my Tong family a lot, and you can be regarded as the benefactor of my Tong family, so you don't have to be so formal, sit down and talk." Tong Guan smiled and pointed to the guest seat.

Sun Tu didn't insist, and after thanking each other with his fists, he sat back again. This action fell into the eyes of Tong Guan and the others, causing a trace of strange color to flash in their eyes.

What kind of identity is Tong Guan, he is also the leading big man in the court, and on weekdays, even the court officials are trembling in front of him, let alone sitting down in front of him, even if he stands, he doesn't dare to straighten his waist. But this Sun Tu is good, he doesn't have the slightest sense of panic, let him sit down, is this a newborn calf?

Sun Tu actually felt the strong aura and pressure from Tong Guan's body, which was the unique temperament of a person who had lived in the upper world for a long time, and ordinary people would naturally not be able to bear it. But the education he has received since he was a child is equal to everyone, coupled with his excellent psychological quality, he can deal with it calmly and not fall behind.

After all, Tong Guan was very deep in the city, even if he was a little surprised, he quickly pressed it, and then re-brought up the question just now: "Now that the government and the opposition are denounced as a villain who is greedy for power, why did you say this?" As he spoke, his eyes settled on the face of the young man in front of him, trying to see something from the change in his expression.

Sun Tu glanced at him fearlessly, and then smiled and said: "It's just a little shallow opinion in the next place, if it's wrong, I hope that Taiwei Tong won't blame it." ”

Tong Guan just nodded, but didn't say anything, but the pressure was enough. Sun Tu then said: "In fact, I thought that most of the praise and criticism of Tong Taiwei was not on Taiwei himself, but on other people in the court. It is only because of the status of the Taiwei Tianzi's close attendant, coupled with the power of the world's soldiers and horses, that many people in the court are jealous and jealous, which will regard the Taiwei as an enemy. And because the Taiwei is deeply trusted by the officials, they can't be impeached, so they will think of starting from other aspects, such as constantly emphasizing the origin of the Taiwei, or for example, you are greedy and persecuting your colleagues. As for the people, it's just that everyone is in the clouds, after all, the mouthpiece of the court is still in the hands of those civil officials, and it is natural that the reputation of the Taiwei is not good. But as long as you are a person who understands, you will not be affected by it. ”

Tong Guan's expression, which was still a little disapproving, quickly changed with Sun Tu's words, and became solemn, and his eyes even had a little more appreciation when he looked at him. After a while, he smiled and said, "You little doll really have some ideas, it's very good." By the way, since you are the benefactor of my Tong family, my Tong Guan will definitely not treat you badly, what you want, just ask! ”

Sun Tu shook his head and said: "Saving people in the next place is only out of my heart, but I never thought of getting anything in return." ”

"Really?" Tong Guan glanced at him thoughtfully, then stood up, as if to leave.

This made Tong Mu a little anxious, and hurriedly said: "Uncle, in fact, Brother Sun does have a difficulty......

"You don't have to say it, if he wants someone to help, he will always say it himself." Tong Guan quickly interrupted his nephew's words, and glanced at Sun Tu again: "Since Mu'er and you are compatible, you can stay here for a while and spend more time with him." If you think of what you want, you can tell him that the old man still has some power in the city of Tokyo, and he can deal with small things. As he spoke, he turned and walked out of the door, leaving only two young men looking at each other.
