Chapter 183: Inside Shao Zheng
Nothing to be courteous or a thief, Shao Zheng has this feeling at this moment.
However, Bai Xiao sent so much tea over during the New Year's holiday.
Shao Zheng is not one of those people who has no knowledge, on the contrary, he knows these teas, many of which are tributes from the imperial court!
If the relationship is good, there is nothing to say, but the relationship between Shao Zheng and Bai Xiao is really not a good word.
"Bai Shilang, what's the matter with you?"
"I want to know about Concubine Lian back then."
As long as he knows what happened back then, Bai Xiao can sort out his head and see what Chu Lian will do next? Bai Xiaozhi didn't want to pull her back, but didn't want to see her play with fire and set herself on fire.
The most difficult thing in the world to provoke is that the family is royal, and the things that Chu Lian did were not just to provoke.
Shao Zheng simply pushed the tea back, "Bai Shilang, I can't help you with this matter." ”
Chu Lian's affairs were a taboo at the time, and they are the same now.
Jiang Yan has expressly forbidden it, and he can't say a word outside, and if he says it, he will be killed with a cane.
Shao Zheng has been by Jiang Yan's side for so many years, and he can still see the truth and falsehood, and it is really not worth it to put his life on the line for some tea.
"Don't you think your current position is precarious?"
Chu Lian not only interfered in matters outside the palace, as far as Bai Xiao knew, she also interfered in matters inside the palace, and she was even more blatant.
Chu Lian was originally a person from the palace city, so naturally she would have a few henchmen, otherwise Chu Lian would not have been able to survive in Luoyang City at that time.
With Chu Lian's loss of power, these people also lost their position, some went to burn the fire, and some poured night incense and suffered all the white eyes!
Now that Chu Lian is back, these people are naturally following the tide, so it is still necessary to follow a good master in the palace.
Shao Zheng, the chief manager, is blocking Chu Lian's way, it's not easy!
Shao Zheng's current power comes from Jiang Yan's trust, but these trusts are not comparable to Chu Lian's beauty.
"Why should the white squire help me?
"I can't guarantee it, but if I don't make a move, the end of the chief manager will definitely be miserable, you know how many people you have offended in this position now, these people will not retaliate when you gain power, but what if you lose power?"
Shao Zheng had to admit that what Bai Xiao said was right,
"Then let's talk about it in another place!"
"Okay."
Now Shao Zheng just wants Bai Xiao to go to the toilet with him and say that Bai Xiao will go.
However, Shao Zheng seems to like the place of the rockery garden very much, the last time he ate with the palace maid was in this place, and now he is also in this place to talk to the people.
Bai Xiao pointed to the belly pocket in the corner, "Is that thing familiar to you?" ”
"Bai Shilang, do you still want to hear it?"
I'm really not kidding," I said. ”
"What happened back then was because Concubine Lian interfered in politics, in fact, Concubine Lian was really a favored concubine at the beginning, and her interference in politics was not out of her own volition, but because of His Majesty's laziness."
"Concubine Lian was born in a scholarly family, she has read poetry and books since she was a child, and her knowledge is far beyond that of ordinary women, especially when she writes a good hand, His Majesty asked him to write it on his behalf, and over time he asked her to help review the chapter, and gradually the chapter was sent directly to Concubine Lian."
This sounds a bit unbelievable, if it is true, then Jiang Yan, the emperor, would be too hasty, it seems that a large part of today's Chu Lian was cast by Jiang Yan.
"The harem can't interfere in politics, Jiang Yan does this, and the hundred officials have no complaints? How can it develop to the point of time and time. ”
"At that time, it was an eventful autumn, and in order to stabilize the situation, the officials also turned a blind eye."
At this moment, Bai Xiao understood that Jiang Yan didn't care about anything, but there was always someone in charge, and Chu Lian filled the vacancy, but in the end, the hundred officials still unloaded the mill and killed the donkey.
Of course, it will be far away after using it, no wonder Chu Lian will be in the cold palace of Chang'an in the end.
In other words, Chu Lian's situation was caused by the hundred officials at that time.
The court is killing step by step, and after all these years, there are really not many people who can stay until now.
If the Bai family is removed, then the rest is what Bai Xiao should pay attention to, "The matter of the year, the chief manager will not also participate!" ”
Bai Xiao was just talking, but he didn't expect Shao Zheng's expression to change, "It shouldn't have anything to do with me." ”
If there is a relationship, it is related, and if it doesn't matter, it doesn't matter, what should be! That's the relationship.
However, with Shao Zheng's status at that time, it was indeed difficult to stay out of the matter, no matter how Chu Lian said it, he was also a member of the harem, and no matter how he escaped from the harem, he couldn't escape two people, one was the queen, and the other was the chief eunuch.
Even if you don't do it, it should be a deaf ear and you won't be able to save it.
"The chief manager, you should know that women are unreasonable, and if you want to save your life, you can't stay out of it anymore."
Bai Xiao had to pull Shao Zheng into the water, so that it would be more beneficial to himself.
"It turns out that Bai Shilang is here to be a lobbyist for the six princes."
"I know that the chief manager is a lonely minister, but if you want to be a lonely minister, you must first gain the trust of Your Majesty, which side do you think Your Majesty will be on in the end."
That being said, it is impossible for Shao Zheng to make a decision all at once.
"Let me think about it again!"
"Think about it again, then I'm going to go to the Hades Palace to find you, so I know it's difficult for you to do, so you can only tell me anything in the future, even if someone finds out about you, then you just need to say that I threaten you, anyway, it's the truth."
"Alright then!" In Shao Zheng's eyes, Bai Xiao and Jiang Zhan are a group of people, so they made up their minds so quickly.
Shao Zheng, the chief eunuch, was really easy to use, and within a few days, he sent news to Bai Xiao, saying that Chu Lian was going to attack Huang Zhan.
Huang Zhan is not only Bai Xiao's grandfather, but also the secretary of the Ministry of Industry! How could the position of Shangshu be easily dismissed, this is too child's play!
When it comes to his relatives, Bai Xiao can't sit still.
Bai Xiao first asked Huang Zhan to be careful, but Huang Zhan didn't care at all, "Grandpa, don't you believe my words?" ”
"Of course I believe that since the demon concubine returned to the court, I knew that there would be this day, but I sat upright, what are I afraid of her doing?"
With a clear conscience, Bai Xiao suddenly felt that he was very small in front of Huang Zhan.
"But Your Majesty is obedient to her."
"I'm an old bone, I don't care about a lot of things anymore, Xiao'er, remember, don't use your power for personal gain because of my affairs in the future, I can't use your grandfather."
Bai Xiao still wants to do activities for Huang Zhan? Unexpectedly, Jiang Yan directly gave the emperor's order, saying that Huang Zhan had retired at a high age, and there was also a heavy reward for the knighthood.
It's just ridiculous, Huang Zhan is old, yes, but his physique is better than Bai Xiao, how did he get to the point of retiring.
As for the heavy reward, it's just some external things, and Huang Zhan is not lacking, as for the knighthood, what's the use of that thing without an official?
Huang Zhan didn't distinguish it, and invited many officials to a feast.
One sentence is free and easy enough, but it is indeed a good thing to be able to retreat with his whole body, Chu Lian's move is really a soft knife!
Huang Zhan's banquet, there were a lot of people there.
Basically, all the civil and military officials are here, after all, where are Huang Zhan's qualifications? Even His Majesty sent it over with a few words.
But Huang Zhan ignored these words when he saw them, and directly let his subordinates take them.
Isn't that something like that supposed to be a pleasure? How can this attitude.
Later, Bai Xiao learned that these words were written by Chu Lian, so it was no wonder that Huang Zhan would be like this.
Chu Lian did this, not just to provoke Huang Zhan, but to provoke Baiguan, an old man who had no official position, and couldn't make such a big effort to make her go to such great lengths.
Even if the hundred officials don't know Chu Lian's handwriting, then they must know Jiang Yan's handwriting, and they will know what's going on as soon as they talk to each other.
Chu Lian's words were about to make the banquet cold.
After a while, the sixth prince Jiang Zhan also came, after all, Huang Zhan was from his side, "Boss, you have a clear life, and it's a pity to be so old in your old age." ”
"Your Highness, you must not say that, I used to disobey the old, but I am really old, and many things are beyond my strength, and it will be bad sooner or later to occupy his position, so it is better to retire early."
"The boss has a point, unlike some people who don't have self-knowledge." There is another villain, this is the current fourth prince Jiang Di.
He must have come uninvited! The words are naturally referring to Jiang Zhan, and it is definitely not a good thing for these two brothers to collide together.
