Chapter 86: The soft doesn't work, the hard comes with the hard
Fang Xiaoru's reminder made Tang Ming suddenly feel a chill behind his back, although he has no real power now, no matter who dares to argue with him except the emperor, he can directly ignore it. also has the ability to deal with it, but Jianwen, who is hiding in the shadows, Tang Ming has to face up to his people.
Cold arrows that can't be guarded against are everywhere, and with Tang Ming's current strength, he can't fight against Jianwen at all, so he can only defend passively. In addition, Tang Ming had no other way, before he had the ability to figure out where Jianwen was hiding, even if Tang Ming had the ability to resist, he would have nowhere to go.
Depressed to depressed, for this kind of inexplicable thing, Tang Ming has always left it behind, and if he thinks too much, he is just asking for trouble.
However, since Fang Xiaoru can remind himself, then he should not mind telling himself about Jianwen's hiding place, thinking of this, Tang Ming bowed and said: "The little nephew has Uncle Lao's concern, the little nephew of Jianwen has been married to him before, and now it doesn't matter if you add this one more thing, but this Emperor Jianwen is really a headache, not to mention the many of his subordinates, he is even more brave and abnormal, once he is caught, he will bite through the poison that was put in his mouth in advance and commit suicide." ”
"The little nephew has fought with them many times, but each time he has not been able to capture them alive, so the hiding place of Emperor Jianwen has never been known. The little nephew dared to ask his uncle, do you know where Jianwen is hiding? ”
Fang Xiaoru's face changed slightly when he heard this, but he quickly returned to normal: "Although my uncle is one of Emperor Jianwen's most trusted people, when Emperor Jianwen fled, my uncle couldn't know where he was hiding in order to ensure his safety. I only know that it is not in the land of the Ming Dynasty, and as for where it will hide, my uncle really doesn't know. ”
Although Tang Ming was a little disappointed when he heard this, it was not unacceptable, he naturally would not doubt that Fang Xiaoru would hide it, and Fang Xiaoru would definitely not do it. After all, he is now the person who Jianwen must eradicate, keeping a secret for a person who wants to kill him, and Fang Xiaoru is not so confused.
chatted with Fang Xiaoru for a while, time flew by, and before he knew it, it was late at night, everyone had been running around all day, and they couldn't talk anymore, Tang Ming left with his farewell.
I thought there wouldn't be anything urgent tomorrow and I could sleep late. But God always seemed to have a grudge against Tang Ming, and the entire Zheng Mansion woke up in the noise early in the morning. The reason turned out to be that the queen came to the Zheng Mansion in person, how could this queen come to the Zheng Mansion quietly for no reason?
Tang Ming was woken up in his sleep, and before he had time to lose his temper, he heard the next person tell him that the queen had come to the mansion in person, and he wanted to see him by name. Now he lost his temper, washed up and put on his clothes, and hurried to the front hall to see the queen.
He came to the house with only two handmaidens and a few guards, and such a low-key style didn't seem to be for official business. Tang Ming secretly guessed in his heart that the person had already bowed to the ground: "Weichen didn't know that the queen mother was coming, and he couldn't go out to meet him and hope for forgiveness!" ”
"Get up and talk, the mourning family is coming without telling you, and it doesn't matter if you welcome it or not, but the mourning family came today to talk about some private things with the Hou Ye." The queen's beautiful eyes kept sweeping towards the people around her, and the meaning couldn't be more obvious.
Tang Ming was slightly stunned, and then reacted, and all the people went out with the order, the queen didn't seem to be at ease, and ordered his guards to guard the door, and then said with a smile: "Weihai Hou is worthy of being a son of a master, at the banquet last night, the trick of selling wine can be said to have alarmed the Quartet, and people can't help but shine." ”
"The mourning family used to think that you were still young, and you were smart and you always had limited learning, but judging from your performance last night, the mourning family still underestimated how smart you were."
This queen came to the house early in the morning for no reason, and the mysterious mouth of the god kept praising herself, if there was no ghost in her heart, what would it be strange? As the queen is the mother of a country, if there is really something that needs to be done for herself, as long as she speaks, she can't refuse, why be so hypocritical.
Since the queen is embarrassed to talk about things, it must be very difficult to do, and I am happy to pretend to be confused if you don't say it. Thinking of this, Tang Ming bowed and said: "The queen thinks too highly of Weichen, if you want to talk about selling wine, Weichen just knows the bottom of the home-brewed wine, so she dares to boast about Haikou." ”
"It's not how smart Wechen is, if what we sold last night was not our own wine, but another kind of thing that Wechen is not familiar with to sell. Then it will certainly not be able to achieve such an effect. ”
Don't pretend, force, pretend, force thunder, under the unclear situation, you must be low-key, low-key, low-key, and say important things three times.
Hearing this, the careful and calculating queen couldn't help frowning. What Tang Ming said just now was indeed true and reasonable, but if it was really as he said, wouldn't it be that he wanted to be happy.
After the banquet last night, she discussed with the emperor and wanted to use Tang Ming's talents to solve the financial crisis in front of her. But according to Tang Ming's explanation just now, she was not as talented as she and the emperor expected. If that's the case, then aren't she and the emperor happy for nothing?
The smile on the queen's face gradually put away, she already believed ninety percent of Tang Ming's explanation, but as long as there was a glimmer of hope, she would not give up easily. The emperor has been forced by the current financial crisis to let go of face, and he is looking for a name to ask his courtiers for money. But it's okay for you to do it once in a while, but if it goes on like this for a long time, it will definitely not be feasible.
The queen's expression was constantly changing with her thoughts, and Tang Ming naturally took all of this into account, which made him even more determined, what the queen did this time must be not small. Under such circumstances, he once again confirmed that his conjecture was correct.
After thinking for a while, the queen still felt the need to say clearly: "Weihaihou, let's tell you about the mourning family!" The emperor has been troubled by the emptiness of the treasury recently, and last night he praised your ability to sell wine, and today he specially called the mourning family to talk to you privately. ”
After a pause, the queen looked at Tang Ming's expression and saw that he was unmoved, so she had to continue: "I just want to see if you can help the emperor solve this trouble, if you can solve it properly, the reward will definitely not be given to you less." In the year of establishment, you were named Weihaihou, and the emperor has always loved you, and has praised you more than once in front of the mourning family. ”
"Now the emperor has something to do with your help, the so-called raising soldiers for a thousand days is used for a while, if Weihaihou can help, please don't shirk it."
When Tang Ming said this, he almost spurted out a mouthful of blood, grandma's, I originally thought that the queen would definitely not be like Zhu Di, who would not enter the oil and salt. Xu, who has always enjoyed a reputation for kindness among the people, should not use power to suppress himself.
Now it seems that he is really too tender, the royal people have no so-called kindness at all, if the soft is not good, the hard will come, and he is really lifting a stone to hit his own feet, and he can only swallow the bitterness in his stomach.
