Chapter 793: Not Stupid
The Temple of Nourishing the Heart.
Zhu Youzhen held the secret fold in his hand and was pondering, this is the most dramatic secret fold he received from Su Tiancheng, it actually talked about the conflict with Tian Guifei's father Tian Hong, and described the entire conflict process in detail, on the surface, the conflict seems to have nothing to do with Tian Hongyu, it is Tian Hongyu's family that made trouble, in fact, it must have something to do with Tian Hongyu, Su Tiancheng pleaded guilty in the secret fold, and implored the emperor to set off, offending the concubine, but it is not such a good thing.
Zhu Youzhen was a little crying and laughing, he had just experienced such a thing for a while, mainly because the queen couldn't get used to Tian Guifei, or maybe she loved Tian Guifei too much, on the first day of the first month, Tian Guifei went to see the queen mother, and was left out of the palace by the queen mother, the weather was cold, Tian Guifei didn't dare to leave, so she had to wait, almost caught a cold, and then Tian Guifei cried in front of her, and she was also angry, and the queen quarreled, and finally had to apologize to the queen mother, In order to maintain the authority of the queen's mother, Tian Guifei was ordered to move out of the palace where she lived as a punishment.
Zhu Youzhen is a little annoyed with the queen's father and Tian Guifei's father, the queen's father Zhou Kui, as the uncle of the country, Jiadingbo, serves in the Soldiers and Horses, has a large number of fields and real estate in Suzhou, it can be said that he is very rich, but he is very stingy, the court was poor at the beginning, and there was no way to do it, even when Zhu Youzhen took out the ginseng in the palace and sold it, Zhou Kui refused to take out a tael of silver, at that time, the queen took out five thousand taels of silver, and passed through Zhou Kui's hands. Zhou Kui actually deducted two thousand taels, and Zhu Youzhen later learned about this matter, and he didn't have much expectation for Zhou Kui. Knowing that Zhou Kui is unreliable, for a period of time, Zhu Youzhen is very desperate, his relatives are unreliable, and the ministers in the court are unreliable, how can this country be defended.
As for Tian Guifei's father, Tian Hongyu. Born in a businessman, his quality is indeed average, in the capital, some of the things that are bullied, Zhu Youzhen knows the way, and sometimes, he also reminds Tian Guifei that this aspect needs to be paid attention to, and the queen mother is very careful. constantly reminded his father Zhou Kui that he must set an example and maintain the royal face, so although Zhou Kui is greedy for money, he is still very low-key outside.
In fact, Zhu Youzhen has very strict requirements for the family members of the harem, these people represent the image of the royal family, and if he faces these people, he can't manage them well. How to manage the civil and military ministers of the imperial court.
After so many years, Zhu Youzhen has understood. Su Tiancheng is the mainstay of the Ming Dynasty, with Su Tiancheng, there are many things, Zhu Youzhen will not worry, just talk about the affairs of Liaodong, Chen Xinjia is actively planning and preparing for the attack Houjin. Whether he can win or not, he is not sure, but even if Chen Xinjia fails, the problem is not too big, and the capital will not be greatly affected. It is impossible for the Guanningjin defense line to be lost overnight, because there is still Su Tiancheng, and the Jiangning battalion led by Su Tiancheng.
has been in contact with Su Tiancheng many times, Zhu Youzhen feels it, Su Tiancheng and the civil and military ministers in the court, there is indeed a difference, Su Tiancheng, who is in a high position, is very low-key, and dealing with anything is for the sake of the Ming Dynasty, especially this time to deal with Zheng Zhilong, before and after, Zhu Youzhen is all knowledgeable, according to general common sense, Su Tiancheng can ruthlessly exterminate Zheng Zhilong and uproot Zheng Zhilong's family, but Su Tiancheng did not do this, taking into account Fujian, The stability of the coastal areas of Guangdong and Zhejiang actually suggested that Zheng Hongkui and Zheng Chenggong return to Fujian, and in this year's township test, they took proper care of Zheng Hongkui and Zheng Chenggong.
Even if Zhou Kui and Tian Hongyu are combined, they are not as good as Su Tiancheng, this is not comparable, Su Tiancheng is an indispensable mainstay of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Youzhen is bent on revitalizing the Ming Dynasty, of course, he can distinguish the importance and will never protect Tian Hongyu.
Su Tiancheng is very smart again, when such a thing happens, he quickly wrote a secret letter of apology, maintained the authority of the royal family, and would not use his own power to do it against Tian Hongyu, which made Zhu Youzhen not embarrassed.
After thinking clearly, Zhu Youjing went to the harem.
The emperor came, Tian Xiuying was still very happy, and hurriedly prepared to greet him.
"How is Concubine Ai's health?"
"The concubine is grateful to the emperor, the concubine feels very good, the emperor is here, and the concubine has nothing to do."
Zhu Youzhen handed the secret fold in his hand to Tian Xiuying.
Tian Xiuying's body trembled, the harem is not able to interfere in politics, this is the ancestral system of the Ming Dynasty, could it be that something is said. didn't have time to think about it, Tian Xiuying hurriedly took the secret fold and looked at it carefully.
After reading the secret fold, Tian Xiuying stood up and knelt down in front of Zhu Youzhen.
"Your Majesty, the concubine's father didn't know what was going on, and connived at his subordinates to do evil, and the concubine took her father to make amends."
Tian Xiuying knows very well that Su Tiancheng's position in the emperor's mind, not to mention anything else, Empress Yi'an and the queen's mother are full of praise for Su Tiancheng, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince regards Su Tiancheng as a role model, and is learning all the time.
"Concubine Ai, I'll leave this matter to you."
Tian Hongyu was sulking at home.
This time I lost my temper in the restaurant, also because of a girl, I originally planned to dedicate this girl to the emperor, who knew that the emperor didn't have such a mind at all, and he didn't accept this feeling, this girl is indeed good, Tian Hongyu thought, since the emperor doesn't want it, then take it under his own account, but unfortunately the pressure from two sides made Tian Hongyu very annoyed, this girl was originally selected from Zhou Kui's so-called song and dance troupe in Suzhou, in fact, she is a courtesan, and she wants to collect it. You still have to look at Zhou Kui's opinion, and at the same time, you should also pay attention to the relationship in the family, of course, such a girl can't be her own concubine, that is, she can't have any identity.
The relationship between Tian Hongyu and Zhou Kui is very good, and the two have some consistent understanding in many aspects.
I didn't think that when I vented my depression in the restaurant, I met someone who didn't have long eyes, and actually asked myself to be quiet, Tian Hongyu thought about it at that time, but what happened in the palace, he also knew it, at this time, it was not appropriate to make trouble in the restaurant, besides, if the things in the restaurant were damaged, maybe I had to take out some silver, and there were people behind the restaurant, and it was unbearable for the monk to look at the Buddha's face.
Tian Hongyu's status is far from being comparable to Zhou Kui.
Tian Hongyu quickly left the restaurant, and the rest of the things were handed over to the next person to deal with.
Unexpectedly, this time it actually hit the iron plate, after the housekeeper came back, he said that one of them was Su Tiancheng, Tian Hongyu gasped, and hurriedly tried to find a way to inquire who the other two people were, and learned that one cabinet scholar Liu Zongzhou, and the other was Zuodu Yushi Huang Daozhou, at this time, Tian Hongyu was dumbfounded, he knew very well that even if his own daughter came out, this matter, I am afraid that he will not be able to settle it, and now he needs to beg the other party not to be serious.
At the critical moment, Tian Hongyu thought of Zhou Kui.
Zhou Kui is the uncle of the country after all, and the things in this palace are also very delicate.
As for those subordinates who caused trouble, Tian Hongyu had long ignored it, and caused such a big thing, why should he care about these subordinates, as for what people want to cause trouble, Tian Hongyu would not have thought of it.
After Zhou Kui came to the mansion, Tian Hongyu hurriedly went to the gate of the mansion to greet him.
After entering the study, Zhou Kui smiled and spoke.
"What's the matter, so anxious, by the way, today in the Terracotta Division, I heard an interesting story, I don't know who Lu Dao is, and actually offended Lord Su, but it's really not long-sighted, not only Lord Su, but also Lord Liu of the cabinet and Lord Huang of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, it seems that the descendants of this family are really looking for death."
Tian Hongyu cried with a sad face, like a mourning exam.
"My lord doesn't know what to say, those subordinates are from the house."
Zhou Kui's eyes widened, looking at Tian Hongyu, he didn't speak for a long time, he probably didn't believe that Tian Hongyu would do such a thing, wouldn't this be asking for trouble.
"Invite your lord to come to the mansion to discuss this matter."
Zhou Kui sighed, he also knows the things in the palace, his own daughter is a little unaccustomed to Tian Hongyu's daughter, but this does not affect the relationship between the two, in this matter, Zhou Kui will not gloat.
"Lao Tian, it's not me talking about you, you also have to discipline the people in the house, in this capital, although we can walk horizontally, but we also have to pay attention to it, I heard that those people actually blocked Lord Su's carriage on the street, isn't this looking for a draw, what kind of person is Lord Su, people have exterminated hundreds of thousands of rogues, the Mongolian tribes who fought did not dare to come forward, obediently obeyed the court, and the Houjin Tartars did not dare to be arrogant, the emperor valued Lord Su very much, the people in your house, Not only offended Lord Su, but also offended Lord Liu and Lord Huang, if the emperor knew the truth, what would he think, the concubine Niangniang is not easy to get ahead. ”
Tian Hongyu shrugged his head, he had already thought about it, this matter is indeed difficult to handle, but it is his own family that suffers, and Su Tiancheng and others have not been harmed, but their own subordinates must be mean when they speak, if Lord Su holds a grudge, it is really difficult to handle, if the emperor does not support him, then he needs to come forward to deal with this matter.
