In the imperial study just now, although Emperor Chen did not mention what happened in that garden today, whether it was Emperor Chen or Tang Ning, they were both old foxes in the court.

The old fox in the court does things, rarely goes straight to the point, many times, a look, an expression, can agree on something, everything is in plain sight.

It's not interesting to say these things.

The agreement reached between Emperor Chen and Tang Ning was that he could be secretly with Zhao Man, provided that he could not be discovered, and he could not cause a royal scandal, and at the same time, Tang Ning wanted to help Emperor Chen solve these troubles as a bride price.

Emperor Chen is a forgetful person, Tang Ning gave him 100 million taels of silver, gave him a stable Jiangnan, a peaceful northwest, he forgot all of this, and actually wanted him to be a cow and a horse in the future......

For Zhao Man, he can work for Emperor Chen for another year, and in these few years, what he has paid is enough to marry her home.

Tang Ning went straight home after leaving the palace gate, and after eating, he came to a room somewhere in the inner courtyard, where Zhao Man was already waiting for him.

She closed the door and asked a little worriedly: "It's so late, what is the matter with my father summoning you into the palace, and let Manager Wei come in person......

Tang Ning said: "Your Majesty left the palace today and went to the garden where we went today. ”

Zhao Man's face turned pale, and he said in a trembling voice: "Father, Father, Father Emperor saw it?" ”

Tangning nodded.

Zhao Man's expression was panicked, and there was a cry in his voice, "Then, what should I do, will my father send someone to arrest you......"

Tang Ning took her in his arms and said with a smile: "Don't worry, Your Majesty didn't say anything, you don't have to worry about it in the future." ”

"Really?" Zhao Man raised his head suddenly, looking at him with a little crystal light in his beautiful eyes.

"Really." Tang Ning grabbed her slender waist, picked her up and turned around, and said, "As long as we are not discovered, Your Majesty will not care......

Before he finished speaking, Zhao Man's raining kiss fell on his face, her eyes were full of tears, but her face was full of smiles.

She wiped her nose and said happily: "I know that my father still likes my ......"

Downing watched her cry with joy, and his arms hugged her tighter.

He raised his head and couldn't bear to tell Zhao Man that the reason why Emperor Chen would turn a blind eye to their affairs was not because he cared about Zhao Man's happiness, but relatively speaking, Tang Ning could bring him more things, and Zhao Man was just a bargaining chip he used to exchange.

It is precisely because Tang Ning is well versed in Emperor Chen's mind that he can be so fearless before entering the palace.

He looked down at Zhao Man and said seriously: "One day, I will marry you back openly." ”

Zhao Man wiped his tears, raised his head and said, "I don't care about this, as long as we can be together for the rest of my life, I am willing to ...... for the rest of my life."

……

In the imperial study, Emperor Chen's anger in his heart had disappeared for the most part, but he was still muttering to himself: "Even when I was young, I was not as lustful as him!" ”

Wei Jian smiled and said: "The old slave thinks that this person always has weaknesses, some people are greedy for money, some people are lustful, some people love power, Lord Tang is not greedy for money, not in love with power, but there are more ladies, and it is also what you and I want, it is really normal......"

Chen Huang snorted coldly: "Is it normal to hook up with the princess when you have a family?" ”

Wei Jian smiled and said, "It's not all bad......"

Emperor Chen said angrily: "Dog minion, is it a good thing that the royal family has lost face?" ”

Wei Jian looked at him and asked in a low voice: "Your Majesty doesn't always say that Lord Tang's heart is not here, in this way, as long as the princess is in the Jingshi, won't he be firmly tied to the Jingshi?" ”

The two looked at each other, and then smiled tacitly, Chen Huang stretched out his hand and pointed at him, and said, "You old thing, very bad......"

……

A few days ago, because of two things, Jiangnan students and Gyeonggi squires had a lot of trouble, and almost half of the imperial court was involved, and even King Duan was caught in the whirlpool.

The number of people allocated to Jiangnan is related to the right of Jiangnan and Jiangnan to speak in the DPRK and China in the next few decades, and the streamlining of taxation is related to the interests of the country's gentry and powerful lords, and many officials in the DPRK and China are also involved.

Everyone thought that His Majesty had taken a step back and calmed things down, but they didn't expect that a wave of unsettled and another wave of things would arise, and within two days, everyone learned that His Majesty had handed over these two matters to Dingguohou with full authority.

In Duanwang's mansion, he was kicked out of the court, and Duanwang, who could only be leisurely at home, heard about this, and couldn't help laughing.

"The surname is Tang, this time the king will see how you make a difference!"

As the most powerful prince, he naturally got more news than others.

For example, last night, Tang Ning was summoned to the palace, and it seemed that he was scolded in the imperial study, and when he came out, his face was extremely ugly, and soon after, these two tricky things fell into his hands.

Having personally experienced these two difficult things, King Duan knows better than anyone how difficult it is to accomplish these two things.

More than half a year ago, because of the fall of Feng Xiang, a large number of Jiangnan officials were implicated, which greatly damaged the strength of the Jiangnan party in the DPRK and China.

How can Jiangnan officials and students agree to this, this matter is not handled properly, Jiangnan, which has just settled down, is afraid that it will be chaotic again, and the entire court, who can afford this responsibility?

Not to mention that in addition to this matter, there is also the major event of tax reform, although it is the court and the people who benefit, but it is the interests of the squires and magnates who move, how can these people spare him?

If he can't do these two things, it will be His Majesty who will offend him, and if he does it well, he will offend the students in Jiangnan and the magnates in Beijing, which is a matter that will inevitably suffer.

Seeing his number one enemy and falling into this situation where he would suffer no matter how he calculated, King Duan was naturally happy.

And the father knows this, and he wants him to do these two things, does it mean that he has gradually fallen out of favor, which is even more concerned by King Duan......

King Kang's Mansion.

After King Kang learned the news, he was not very happy, but a little regretful.

There is no doubt that the two things that Tang Ning took over are two hot potatoes and two impossible big troubles, and he hopes that these two troubles will fall into the hands of Duanwang and drag him into the water, in comparison, although he doesn't like Tangning either, but his biggest opponent is still Duanwang.

When everyone in the court felt that these two things, even if they fell into the hands of Tang Ning, he would not be able to complete them, in a certain garden in Beijing, several leaders among the Jiangnan students gathered together and discussed something with frightened faces.

"How could it be his ......"

"This is the plague god and the broom star......"

"The last time there was an accident in Jiangnan, it was because of him, is he going to wipe out my Jiangnan this time?"

"No, I'll have to talk to a few adults......"

……

At the same time, in a powerful mansion in Beijing, a richly dressed middle man heard the news that Tang Ning would be responsible for the tax reform, looked at everyone in the hall, subconsciously touched his chest, and said: "Why is my heart suddenly a little panicked......
