Chapter 19: The Beginning
"Merchants are very profitable, and there really is no good thing!" In the study of the prince's mansion, someone scolded loudly, followed by a few broken sounds, and when the next person entered, he saw Yuan Chengdao slapping the table angrily, and several officials of the court stood aside with an embarrassed face. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
"Don't think I don't know, how dare these people be so unscrupulous if they don't have the backing behind them! The old puppet is really insatiable. The old puppet in his mouth is naturally the right minister above tens of millions of people other than one person, and now he scolds it like this in front of everyone, which shows the anger in the prince's heart. He looked at the people in the study, and saw one by one, his face was pale, and he was silent, so he sat down again, poured a sip of tea, calmed down, and then slowly looked at a few people, "A few of them are Pythagorean in the middle of the court, and I don't want to look at the miserable situation of starvation all over the wilderness, and Yi Zi eats it, right?" ”
Naturally, there are many interests behind them, and naturally there are people involved, after all, such a big interest is not something that a few people can monopolize. Yuan Chengdao was able to let them come here to listen to his temper, the meaning of which was self-evident, and several people naturally had to fully cooperate, and after some discussion, they hurriedly said goodbye and left.
The study was quiet again, behind the screen of the jade West Mountain map, Shang Xue walked out slowly, the old man was still dressed plainly, but there was a charm in his gestures, and the old people were like this, "Why did the old man scold such inappropriate words?" When it reaches the ears of others, I am afraid that they will hold a grudge. ”
Yuan Chengdao smiled, he personally poured a cup of tea for the old man and asked the teacher to sit down, "I was really angry just now." "Everything that happened today is naturally discussed by the two of them, knocking it out, it is also convenient to use people in the future, and more importantly, to build the general trend," just a few of them, I'm afraid it won't be anything, it's like this every year, and the relationship is by no means so easy to shake, why does the teacher suddenly want to start from here? ”
"Hey......" the old man sighed, "the world is like this, and we can only do our best." However, you must know that this matter must be done, the foundation of the country lies in the people, and the people take food as the sky, do this well, you can go smoothly in the future, this Manchu Dynasty civil and military are also watching, besides, this time someone cooperates, and I also want to see his means. The old man couldn't help but show a playful look on his face as he spoke, and one hand rhythmically knocked on the table, at this moment, he couldn't help but think of the appearance of playing against the young man in the small courtyard of Yecheng.
Yuan Chengdao nodded, he didn't understand in his heart, because of Shangxue's persuasion and Yuan Shanshan's help, he was now closer to the old man's heart, but he always had to do one or two big things in order to let the other party really see himself and admit himself, and only then could he make the old man in his mouth soft, as for the help in the old man's mouth, he didn't have much interest, after all, it was the identity of the prince.
It's just a few hours of effort, everything that happened in the prince's mansion was soon publicized by a few officials of the court, officialdom has always been like this, you have me, I have you, the intricate relationship of interests, any news will spread quickly, not to mention that this is a major event related to many interests, and several families related to it got the news for the first time. And for those on the other side, it's just another challenge.
"What does he know? Heaven and earth are unkind to all things as dogs, what can a few people starve to death, what day in the world is there no starvation to death! "In the study room of the Right Prime Minister's Mansion, several people are sitting together, including officials and businessmen, several people have just gathered together, and the person who spoke was the new squire of the court, who was originally a student of the Right Minister, and there was the support of several major clans in the south behind him, so it was naturally smooth sailing.
"Business has already begun, and now it's too late to change, food prices in several places have risen." This time is a middle-aged businessman, he has accumulated several granaries in his hands, and most of the family's assets are pressed on it, so he is naturally the most concerned, and after getting the news, he rushed over as soon as possible, accompanied by two people, and the situation is roughly the same.
"That is, now that the arrow is on the string, naturally there is no turning back, which time in previous years was the court not thunder and rain, who can stop us? Those inspectors, in the end, are not the ones who lose their officials, the ones who are dismissed, and the better ones become our dogs? ”
Several people in the room were smiling, and the hard work of officialdom and shopping malls for many years naturally made them feel a little confident in their hearts, "Several of them are also old rivers and lakes, and it is naturally a good thing for the court to be sympathetic to the people, and we must also express it." The young man opened his mouth, and everyone in the room looked at him, and no one dared to boast of his elders in front of him, "This time it was the prince who released it, and everyone also knew that the prince and his father had some misunderstandings, and the prince wanted to plan for the world, which was the blessing of the Chinese Dynasty." ”
A few people didn't understand what the young man meant by these lies, and they all looked at each other, "In this case, in the next few days after the year, everyone will calm down first, and the price of food should be stabilized, which can be regarded as giving the prince a face, waiting for my news." ”
Everyone nodded, looking at the smile on the young man's face, several people were also relieved, and at this moment, the door of the study suddenly opened, and a white old man staggered in, and everyone hurriedly got up and walked, "I've seen Yan Xiang." ”
The old man's face was full of old spots, his skin was saggy, like an old tree, but there was a light in his eyes, "Let's go down first, I have something to say to Xiao'er." ”
After a while, the study was quiet, and the young man helped the old man to sit down, and the two of them were next to each other, "I'm seventy years old, and it's time to retire." ”
"What did the father say, the one in the imperial city hasn't retired yet, what are you retreating......" The young man looked at the old man in some surprise, not knowing what the other party meant by suddenly saying this, the old man turned his head to stare at his only son, with a faint warmth in his sharp eyes, "You should also start a family, Fan'er, take care of yourself,"
"Dad, ...... you" The young man looked at the other party stunned, but saw that the other party had turned his face and stared at the brazier in front of him, "The prince has been in the imperial city recently, and Princess Jingyuan has also returned, Your Majesty ......"
Although the old man is the right minister, but after all, he is only a courtier, glory and wealth, just a word from others, at such an age now, he has retreated in his heart, and then looked at his son, the uneasiness and apprehension in his heart have become stronger, he knows that his son has his own wisdom, plus years of connivance and pampering, it is no longer something he can say, but at least let him restrain himself.
Yan Fan naturally saw that his father was happy, but he was the kind of person who was willing to be mediocre, with many years of pretentiousness and hard work, how could he give up in one or two sentences, the interests were too big, the relationship was too wide, and the trap was too deep.
The conversation between the two lasted for a long time, and after painstaking persuasion, how much could be heard in the end, I am afraid that only the calm young man by the brazier knew by himself.
