Chapter 360: Shameless Villain
Xuchang and Zhuang Qingzhai thought of going together, but he was not as transparent as Zhuang Qingzhai, he was a step late, and when he walked outside the door, he heard Zhuang Qingzhai praising the empress dowager, transferring troops into the city, and hurriedly took off his shoes, and rushed in without regard for etiquette.
Rushing in front of the Dou family, Xu Chang did not forget to glare at Zhuang Qingzhai with his residual eyes: "The Empress Dowager must not transfer troops into the city, please think twice!" ”
"Why can't the Northern Army be mobilized? They are protecting Chang'an, is it possible that the prime minister wants to watch Chang'an continue to mess up? ”
"The northern army has the responsibility of defending Chang'an, that is to resist the north, how can Chang'an's scabies be compared with the north?"
Originally, Xu Chang and Zhuang Qingzhai were both cronies of the Empress Dowager, but because of the death of a person, they became enemies again. Although Dou was blind, the smell of gunpowder in the words of the two could still be heard.
"Okay, the mourning family doesn't want to listen to your arguments, the mourning family has already handed over the political affairs to the emperor, and we will talk about it when he comes!"
Liu Che was waiting in Jianzhang Palace, and when he came to see the Empress Dowager, he was still wearing the clothes of the early dynasty. The wide robe and large sleeves are very difficult to walk, and the decorations on the whole body are clanging. Glancing at the two kneeling on the ground, Liu Che saluted the Dou family: "The grandson is here, what does the imperial grandmother teach?" ”
Dou Shi smiled coldly: "You haven't even changed your clothes, are you just waiting for the mourning family to send someone to call you?" ”
was guessed by Dou Shi to think, Liu Che did not speak. Dou sighed: "The two of them just told the mourning family that Chang'an is already in chaos, how is the emperor going to deal with it?" ”
Liu Che said: "My grandson hasn't thought about it yet!" ”
"Haven't thought about it yet? This Chang'an is the national capital, Chang'an is in chaos, what should the Kwantung princes think? Do you want to watch the turmoil in Chang'an and let those people take advantage of it? You are the emperor, not the former crown prince, you can't make up your mind, what should they do? The world is yours, you have to remember that! ”
"Sun Er knows that he is wrong, so he will go back and convene the ministers to discuss!"
"Ministers? What do you think they can say? Although the mourning family is blind, they also know that Haoqiang has something to do with everyone, so don't count on your ministers in this matter, figure it out yourself! ”
"No! The grandson should do his best, please rest assured! ”
"Can the mourning family rest assured? It's only been a few days, and Chang'an has let you do this, how can you let the mourning family rest assured that the Han River will be handed over to you? Dou patted the dwarf: "Zhuang Qingzhai said that the northern army was transferred into the city, this is also a way!" ”
"The Empress Dowager, by all means!" Xu Chang advised again: "The northern army guards the north of Chang'an, if the capital is transferred, the north is empty, in case the Huns change, Chang'an is in danger!" ”
"It's not a full tune, a part of it, let the southern army cooperate, and the chaos in Chang'an can be solved immediately!" Zhuang Qingzhai still insisted on his opinion.
Dou asked Liu Che: "Emperor, what do you say you should do?" ”
Liu Che really wanted to tell him about his plan with Su Ren and Dongfang Shuo, but he knew that it was not time yet. If he said it at this time, his purpose would be obvious, but he couldn't help but say it, in case the Dou clan really transferred the northern army into the city, the hard-working plan would be in vain. After thinking about it, Liu Che said: "Sun Er also feels that it is inappropriate to transfer the Northern Army, Sun Er has appointed Xu Le as Jing Zhaoyin, Xu Le is recommended by Zhuang Qingzhai, this person has great talent, there should be a way to quell the chaos in Chang'an." ”
"Xu Le? The guy who wrote the rhetoric? ”
"The imperial grandmother doesn't know, Xu Le's resignation is very good, he is more talented, and he has the imperial history doctor as a guarantee, and his grandson is confident!"
A cold sweat broke out on Zhuang Qingzhai's back, and Liu Che's words had already tied him and Xu Le together. Moreover, one by one he opened his eyes and said nonsense, since Xu Chang recommended Xu Le, he was not at ease, and now the emperor is adding fuel to the fire, this is the rhythm of killing him Zhuang Qingzhai.
Xu Chang followed and fell into the ground: "Your Majesty is right, Xu Lechen has also seen it, there are indeed great talents, and it is more than enough to govern Chang'an!" ”
Dou Shi smiled, no one dared to ask her what she was laughing at, it took a long time to stop laughing and beckon to Liu Che, Liu Che hurriedly stepped forward. Stretched out his thin hand and touched Liu Che's face, and nodded: "Okay!" Since the emperor said so, then you can do it yourself! When you are tired, you all go down. ”
Zhuang Qingzhai sat on the couch. He really played big this time, and he was expecting to make some gains in this matter, but he didn't expect to shoot himself in the foot. first provoked Xuchang, and then couldn't wait to come to the Empress Dowager, originally the Chang'an Rebellion had nothing to do with him, the imperial historian, but now it is good, he has become a scapegoat. climbed into his carriage in a daze, thinking about a way out along the way.
When I passed by Suzaku Street, I happened to see the Taixue wall that had been pushed to, and the pictures that had just been painted on it had been messed up. Zhuang Qingzhai hurriedly called the coachman to stop. The coachman took the reins of his horse: "Master, where are you going?" ”
"Go to Su Mansion!"
"Sufu? The villain doesn't remember the official surnamed Su in the court? ”
"Go to Dongxin Street!" Zhuang Qingzhai was too lazy to bother with the coachman, and directly said the name of the street.
The coachman suddenly realized, turned around again, and drove the carriage towards Dongxin Street.
The construction site was forced to stop, and Su Ren was idle. Just took advantage of this time to make his planning plan a little better, and he thought that he couldn't do it, so he found a few painters to paint for him, and Su Ren set the tone and let the painter play. In a tasteful community, beauty comes first, and nature is how beautiful it is.
In the courtyard of the Su family, more than a dozen painters are busy, Su Ren holds the teapot in one hand, walks among the painters with his hands behind his back, sees the good painting, stops to watch for a while, and when he encounters the bad painting, he stretches out his hand to point, like a teacher in an art class.
Liu Gao came in and said a few words in Su Ren's ear, Su Ren was a little surprised: "Just their master and servant?" Didn't bring anyone else? ”
Liu Gao nodded: "Just the two of them, it seems that they came over after the court meeting, and they didn't even come to change their clothes and hats!" ”
"This old thing, I guess I have something to ask for, tell him I'm not there!"
Liu Gao nodded and turned to go out. Su Ren once again concentrated on appreciating the creations of the painters, and there was a painter who painted very well, and the trees, houses, rivers, and streets were perfectly integrated. On the compact street, the family is far away from the house, separated by grass and trees in the middle, the street is painted with stone slabs, and the weeping willows on the river bank flutter in the wind, whether it is the artistic conception or the style, so that those who have seen it will like it at once.
Su Ren nodded and patted the painter's shoulder: "Very good, come here, reward!" ”
The painter thanked him and happily received the reward and left, and the other painters looked at this darling with envy, mixed tastes, and did not dare to be tired, so they took out twelve points of strength to start painting again.
Liu Gao came in again: "Brother Ren, let's meet, right?" The man said that he had come by command, and that it would be a capital sin not to see him! ”
"Ahh That's shameless! Well, I'm gone, and I'll see what he does for me!" ”
Sima Xiangru hurriedly stopped Liu Gao: "Who is it?" ”
Liu Gao glanced at Su Ren, and then said to Sima Xiangru: "It's the imperial historian Zhuang Qingzhai!" ”
"Ahh Don't hurry up yet, please! ”
Liu Gao looked embarrassed, and Su Ren smiled: "Forget it, let him in." ”
Zhuang Qingzhai walked in and sighed: "Su Yilang has such a big face, even if the old man goes to Changle Palace, it is not so difficult to enter!" ”
Su Ren said with a smile: "The people of Changle Palace are easy to talk, I am not good at talking, if the imperial doctor has something to ask, then he has to come up with a reason for me to speak, if he just comes to drink a glass of water wine or tea, please here!" ”
"You are now a speaker, why do you still have a businessman's face, this is not good!"
Zhuang Qingzhai followed Su Ren to the table under the big tree, and sat down: "Or Su Yilang will enjoy it, Taixue's construction site was made like that, and he was not in a hurry at all, could it be that he was waiting for His Majesty to surrender?" ”
"I can't help it, who let Jing Zhaoyin fail to govern Chang'an, since it was smashed yesterday, no one dares to come, you can't rely on me alone, right?"
Zhuang Qingzhai smiled: "The recent Chang'an is indeed very chaotic, Your Majesty has already dismissed a Jing Zhao Yin and killed a Jing Zhao Yin for this reason, what can Su Yilang do?" ”
"So serious?" Sima Xiangru was a little surprised.
Zhuang Qingzhai nodded: "The court meeting has just ended, the blood is still outside the gate of Jianzhang Palace, Chang'an is not calm for a day, and no one dares to be Jing Zhaoyin!" ”
"Doctor Yu Shi can't be here to make a decree, right? I won't be Jing Zhaoyin if I die! ”
"Hehe, Su Yilang is too worried, how can Su Yilang be a Jingzhao Yin who can stop it, it's not a secret that the Queen Mother asked the old man to ask Su Yilang, and after looking at the entire court, only Su Yilang may have a way!"
"That's too much to look up to, isn't it?"
"What? Su Yilang wants to resist the decree? ”
Su Ren looked at Zhuang Qingzhai, Zhuang Qingzhai looked calm: "Didn't the Imperial Doctor just say that the dynasty had just been dispersed, why did he come at the behest of the Empress Dowager, Zhuang Yushi, don't lie to me, although I haven't been in Chang'an for a long time, I still know that Jianzhang Palace and Changle Palace are not in the same place." ”
"Su Yilang doesn't believe it? Then follow me into the palace! ”
"Okay! Walk! Su Ren put down the teapot and shook his robe.
Zhuang Qingzhai smiled, also got up, made a gesture of invitation, and took the lead towards the door. Su Ren followed out and got into Zhuang Qingzhai's carriage together. The coachman whipped his whip and the carriage started. The car is not equipped with shock absorbers, and it is very bumpy to walk on the stone road. Along the way, Zhuang Qingzhai's face was calm, and Su Ren didn't find anything strange. When they arrived at the gate of Changle Palace, Zhuang Qingzhai took the lead, the guards did not stop him, and the two of them walked towards the Hall of Longevity one after the other.
"Zhuang Yushi, what the hell is going on?"
Zhuang Qingzhai smiled: "You'll know when you arrive, follow it!" ”
The Longevity Hall was in front of them, and the guards at the door stopped the two of them. Zhuang Qingzhai said to the guard: "Please report to the Empress Dowager, the imperial historian Zhuang Qingzhai and the speaker Su Ren ask to see!" ”
Su Ren heard that this was inappropriate. Since it was the Dou family who asked Zhuang Qingzhai to pass on the decree, it should be a decree when he came, how did it become a request to see. Su Ren took two steps forward and walked behind Zhuang Qingzhai: "Say, did the Empress Dowager ask you to find me?" ”
"Whether it's or not, now that you've arrived, are you still going to go?"
Su Ren finally understood that he had been fooled and deceived by Zhuang Qingzhai, a shameless villain.
