Chapter 259: Big and Small Twins

"The Emperor Shengming!"

In the south study of Daming Palace, the former minister of the Ministry of Shangshu, the current cabinet minister Cui Wenlong, said to Emperor Zhengqing after the imperial case with a happy face.

Although Cui Wenlong is an extremely popular minister, he looks obviously different from several other cabinet ministers, and he looks much younger. In fact, he is indeed younger than He Shanbao, Fang Shou and others, but he is only in his early fifties. It is quite rare to enter the cabinet at this age, not to mention unique. Therefore, he devoted himself to the Zhengqing Emperor who appreciated and promoted him.

After Emperor Zhengqing broke up in the palace drama, he was supposed to accompany the Emperor Taishang's Luan to serve. It's just that the Emperor Taishang sympathized with him for a busy day and ordered him to go back to the palace to rest early, so he had to be free.

At this time, looking at Cui Wenlong, who was looking at him with a respectful face, Emperor Zhengqing smiled and said, "Oh, Cui Aiqing knows my intentions? Let's hear it. ”

Cui Wenlong was the only person who was brought into the cabinet when he ascended the throne. Cui Wenlong did not live up to his hard work, he has really helped him do a lot of things over the years, otherwise, when the emperor is still there, the former ministers of the Manchu Dynasty can overwhelm him.

So, he doesn't mind giving more respect to the people who work for him.

Cui Wenlong put away his smiling face and said with a straight face: "The emperor's actions today, according to Weichen, have achieved at least four goals. ”

Emperor Zhengqing was surprised and said, "Oh, you can talk about it." "He didn't even expect so much.

Cui Wenlong said: "First of all, this time the emperor is on his birthday, and the emperor has done everything himself and made proper preparations, which fully demonstrates the emperor's purest filial piety, which I believe the emperor must also know."

Secondly, when the Emperor Taishang showed his favor for the Jia family, the emperor immediately gave great favor to the emperor and added high-ranking officials to make him enter the court, which was the best move! ”

"Tell me about it."

"First, there are many rumors in the government and the opposition that since the emperor ascended the throne, he has snubbed many old ministers during the reign of the emperor, especially the nobles led by the four kings and eight princes who have been favored by the emperor......"

"That's nonsense! They are greedy for pleasure one by one, and they don't want to make progress, so can I still provide for them? If they can be like Rong'er one by one, why can't I tolerate people? ”

Emperor Zhengqing said angrily.

"What the emperor said is very true, but everyone is pouring gold and accumulating and destroying bones, and we have to ignore this fallacy. Just like today, the emperor's insistence on being more generous to Jia Qing can effectively crack down on this kind of speech.

After all, Jia Qing is the queen of the dignified Eight Princes. Now that the emperor has revealed that he wants to reuse him, if nothing else, at least the descendants of the Emperor Taishang and the four kings and eight princes can see the emperor's mind clearly.

In addition, there is another point, does the emperor know that Jia Qing is a closed disciple of Fang Ge Lao? ”

Emperor Zhengqing obviously didn't know, and said, "There is such a thing? ”

"It is true. In this way, Lord Fang will definitely miss the emperor's grace. ”

Emperor Zhengqing didn't want to have such a relationship, and he couldn't help but be a little happy. You must know that although Fang Shou entered the cabinet the latest, neither his qualifications nor his prestige in the world are comparable to Cui Wenlong. This is also the reason why he had to travel thousands of miles to transfer Fang Shou to the cabinet in the first place.

It's just that Fang Shou is quite stubborn, perhaps also called the arrogance of the literati, although he is grateful for his "grace of knowledge", and has indeed done a lot for him over the years, but he seems to be reluctant to fall too deep into the power struggle in the court. When discussing politics in the court, they always talk about things and uphold the public heart.

Of course, Emperor Zhengqing is not to blame for this. If Fang Shou was a superficial literati, he wouldn't treat it so attentively.

Now that I know the relationship between him and Jia Qing, hehe, it seems that he is grateful to Jia Qing, and it is not necessarily a compromise with the Emperor Taishang, Jia Qing may be able to become his person, Emperor Zhengqing thought in his heart.

Seeing Cui Wenlong hesitated again, he said: "It's just that there is one point, Weichen is a little worried." The emperor only transferred the eldest disciple of Lord Fang to the capital half a year ago, wanting to make him serve as the envoy of the Beijing Camp Festival, and at this time, he promoted Jia Qing to the military department and the military commander. It may make Lord Fang suffer criticism from the government and the opposition, and it will be detrimental to the name of the Qing Dynasty......"

Emperor Zhengqing knew what Cui Wenlong meant, but he said that the intention of the other party to win over him was too obvious and not very compliant. He didn't care, but sneered: "Criticism? Then let them criticize. As long as Sun Da has the courage and ability, when the time is ripe in the future, even if both the master and apprentice enter the cabinet, why not? ”

After speaking, he probably knew that this kind of tone should not come from the mouth of a rational and calm king, glanced at Cui Wenlong, who bowed his head and did not say a word, and changed the topic and said, "Tell me your last point." ”

Cui Wenlong listened, sorted out his thoughts, and then said: "The last point is Weichen's own opinion, although Jia Qing is young and comes from a big family, he is very different from others.

In the opinion of the micro-minister, the emperor can take it into his pocket and cultivate it, and perhaps, he will be a powerful minister in the future.

The most important thing is that he may be able to do one thing for the emperor right now......"

Emperor Zhengqing's eyes widened and he asked, "What's the matter?" ”

"About Lin Ruhai's ......"

......

Jia Qing thought about the whereabouts of Wu Xian'er and the others all the way, and it didn't take long for him to arrive within the scope of Rongning Second Mansion.

At this time, it was already dark, and there were only a few vendors on the street who had finished late pushing their carts home, which seemed a little clean.

"Huh? Is that guy Jia Rui? ”

Jia Qing rode a horse and walked in front, and suddenly saw fifty steps ahead, behind Ning Guofu, a figure came out from across the street, and hurriedly went forward, Or, turned into a small door behind Rongguo Mansion.

Jia Qing recognized that it was Jia Dairu's house, but he didn't see the figure running over, so he asked Wang Shun under the horse.

"It seems that it's really Uncle Rui, it's so late, what is he doing in the mansion over there?" Wang Shun was also suspicious.

When Jia Qing heard this, he suddenly seemed to remember something, a mocking smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, he reined in his horse, leaned down, and said mysteriously: "You quietly follow him, see what he does, come back and tell me." If someone in the mansion over there asks about you, they will say that I will call you, and only say that Bao Er Ye will not forget to come over here tomorrow, and then go to my teacher's house to listen to the class together. ”

"Holo."

Although Wang Shun didn't understand why Jia Qing suddenly wanted to know Jia Rui's movements, he didn't reason, agreed, and followed Jia Rui's direction and went.

Here, Jia Qing took the rest of the people and entered the Ningguo Mansion through the back corner gate.

"Second master, what are you?"

After entering the mansion, seeing that Jia Qing handed over the words given by the Emperor Taishang to the mother-in-law who came forward to listen to the dispatch, obviously to bring it back to Yipintang, Lai Sheng couldn't help but remind.

Jia Qingdao: "What? ”

"Second master, the words given by the royal pen are going to be put into the ancestral hall, and then they will be made as plaques. You ......"

Jia Qing said unhappily: "What I just got, can I take it back and take a look?" ”

Lai Sheng said: "Okay, of course it's okay, the second master just take it back and look at it......"

Jia Qing was satisfied, and said: "As for the plaque, you arrange for someone to come first, and I'll borrow it from you to take a look, don't break it, it's worth a lot of silver, I'm worried that you can't afford to pay it!" ”

Lai Sheng was quite uneasy, and only said: "The second master said that he was laughing, where did the little one dare to break it?" I'm afraid that the sum of a small net worth and life is not enough to compensate. ”

He had already seen that Jia Qing probably had no intention of offering it to the ancestral ancestral hall......

After explaining to Lai Sheng again, arranging the work, Jia Qing returned to the house surrounded by the maid and the mother-in-law.

I wanted to go to You's courtyard, but I just heard the maid say: The eldest grandmother is in the courtyard of the second master.

So, I went straight to Yipintang. Sure enough, not only the You family, but also the Qin family and their respective maids and servants were all in Yipintang, and as soon as Jia Qing entered the courtyard, he saw such a large number of people.

"It's just to go out to dinner, and you're in such a hurry to come to my house to find it? You are the master and grandmother, so naturally you can go anywhere, but you just suffer the girls in my yard! It's easy that I'm not there for a day, I could have stolen a leisure, but who knows that I still have to serve people when I turn around! ”

Jia Qing was dissatisfied with You and Qin. originally thought that he would be respected, but who knows, but they just looked at him and didn't speak, and his eyes were full of banter.

Jia Qing was stunned for a moment and asked, "What's wrong with you?" ”

As he spoke, he looked at the others. Xie Luan didn't speak, and went to pick up the things in his mother-in-law's hand, Pei Feng pouted, looking a little unhappy, and even Cuiliu, who was standing in front, looked at him with a funny face.

I heard You Shi laugh and said: "It turns out that the second uncle is afraid that he will be tired of the girls in the courtyard, and it is difficult to bother!" If the second uncle thinks that there is a shortage of people in the house, ask someone to tell me, and I will assign it to the second uncle. Why go out and look for it by yourself? ”

Jia Qing was even more puzzled, and said uncomfortably: "What am I looking for?" ”

I made up my mind that if this dared to join forces to tease him, he would definitely cure him...... Just as he was thinking about it, he saw that the You and Qin clans each moved a position to both sides, revealing the situation behind them.

Jia Qing suddenly extinguished his thoughts. Because behind the two of them, two delicate girls stood among the ladies of the Ning Guofu with red and willow greens, their faces were red and they looked a little cramped and uneasy.

It was the big and small shuang'er who disappeared with Wu Xian'er.
