Chapter 65: Mutual Calculations
Du He secretly glanced at Li Shimin, and saw that his expression was unpredictable and bright: "Actually, I guessed!" When these words came out, Li Shimin's eyes bulged: "Guess??" I see you're getting bolder. I, Datang, will not punish those who write and speak, but I will not allow you to make such false accusations. ”
Du He saw the anger on Li Shimin's face, but there was a faint smile in his eyes, and he suddenly understood that the Tang Emperor in front of him may not be ignorant, and he also shouted aggrievedly: "Wronged, father-in-law, son-in-law, I am more wronged than Dou E, the snow is falling in the sky, the frost is flying in June, and the world is going to be moved!" ”
Dou E originated from Guan Hanqing of the Yuan Dynasty, in this early Tang Dynasty, Guan Hanqing and his grandmother had no shadow, Li Shimin knew which number one person Dou E was, which onion and garlic, was confused, but after listening to the next few words, he also understood the meaning, laughed dumbly, and scolded: "The world has changed color, don't give me a poor mouth, you tell me, how did you guess?" ”
Du He pursed his lips and said, "That eldest grandson Shunde used this kind of indiscriminate trick against my subordinates, isn't this tantamount to slapping me?" I can't bear it, it's just that there's no evidence. So on the surface, I am stable with my eldest grandson Shunde, but behind it is the idea of finding real evidence. It's just that things don't go as planned, and all the evidence is erased. Not to mention this erase, they also set another trap, just waiting for me to make a big deal and bite me back. Father-in-law, you don't know the abilities of the eldest grandson Shunde, how can you make a plan in just half an hour? Except for the eldest grandson and old fox, I really can't think of anyone who has this ability. ”
Li Shimin also faintly noticed that this matter was related to the eldest grandson Wuji, and when Du He said this, he also had some understanding, and his face was gloomy: "In this way, there is no doubt about this matter?" ”
Du He nodded and said: "That's the way it is, the eldest grandson and the old fox intervened, the evidence and the son-in-law can't come out, believe it or not, the father-in-law decides by himself." ”
Li Shimin didn't answer immediately, but just touched his head in embarrassment. As Duho said, there are some things that don't need proof. Evidence is just words, and in front of people who really have the ability and scheming, evidence is a floating cloud. You can find a piece when you need it, and destroy it when you don't need it.
But facts are facts, and what happened is undeniable no matter what.
This Du He's words, in Li Shimin's eyes, this is the best evidence. This is the truth that has no evidence, and is more credible than all evidence.
Regarding the eldest grandson Shunde's succession to General Zuo Weiwei, Li Shimin already held an attitude of denial, but because he couldn't find a suitable candidate for a while, and the eldest grandson Wuji was urging him tightly, so he let him act temporarily. And now that's happening.
There is no real evidence for this, and there is no reason to punish him, but it is unreasonable to continue to let the eldest grandson Shunde serve as the general of Zuo Weiwei. But apart from the eldest grandson Shunde, who else is qualified to serve as the general of Zuo Weiwei?
Li Shimin has a few suitable candidates in his heart, but there is an obvious gap between the two sides, it is not easy to call.
Du He knew his intentions, and said with a pointed smile: "I don't know if my father-in-law knows, the divine doctor Sun Simiao came to Chang'an a few days ago, and with our efforts, General Hu Gong Qin has now recovered, and now he can run and jump, and General Cheng is no longer General Qin's opponent." ”
Li Shimin stood up movingly, took two steps forward, and asked eagerly, quite out of shape: "Is this true?" ”
Du He knew that Li Shimin was not only the emperor, many years ago, he was also a member of Li Tang, a wise and brave general, often doing things to charge into battle, almost every battle must be forward, many times led a small number of elite cavalry, broke into the enemy's hinterland, and fought against the enemy.
In this kind of hinterland, the two people fixed on the left and right beside him are Qin Qiong and Cheng Yanjin.
After more than ten years of fighting on the battlefield, Qin Qiong and Cheng Yanjin don't know how many swords they have blocked for Li Shimin, and how many times they have saved his life.
This kind of affection honed on the edge of life and death has long surpassed the friendship of ordinary monarchs and ministers. What's more, Li Shimin is a person who cares about his old feelings, this is the emperor, although he is busy visiting the Duke of Hu Guo's mansion at least once a month, Qin Qiong's old illness has made him worry a lot, and he has invited no less than three-digit famous doctors. Without exception, all famous doctors have only one answer, Qin Qiong fought too hard when she was young, and there were too many old wounds on her body, and there was no cure. In the end, Li Shimin himself had to give up.
Now that I hear that Qin Qiong's condition has improved, and I can still fight against the old and strong Cheng Yanjin and win, this kind of change is really incredible and exciting.
Du He smiled and talked about the healing of Qin Qiong and Qin Qiong's physical condition today.
Li Shimin was ecstatic, stroking his palms and laughing. "Okay, great...... Get ready to go, I'm going to visit the Duke of Hu immediately!" He laughed: "If Shubao's condition is really as the virtuous son-in-law said, as you think, this General Zuo Weiwei is Shubao." ”
His eyes revealed a smile, how could he be relieved to soothe Du He and solve his worries, how could he go south with peace of mind.
The welcome building is still full of people and the flow of passengers is amazing. As one of the gold caves in Chang'an, it can be truly high-quality and inexpensive, so that all customers can eat and drink happily, on the fourth floor.
The three shopkeepers in the welcome building stood respectfully in front of Wu Meiniang and handed over this month's account books to her.
The management of Yingbin Building is not the lazy and casual of ordinary restaurants, it is a process management, a department and a department are governed separately, and the details are processed, becoming an institution and a whole to achieve the greatest effect.
The future empress used the strategy of governing the country to govern the restaurant, and the results naturally had different repercussions.
This day is the time to check the accounts every month, and the three shopkeepers have sorted out everything early in the morning, waiting for Wu Meiniang's inquiry.
They don't dare to have any carelessness about the little girl in front of them, they all know that she is cruel and has the means to make people feel like a spring breeze.
Cruelty and spring breeze are two completely different methods, but they are vividly reflected in Wu Meiniang's body. She invited someone to make money for her, as long as she can make money for her, she will make the other party feel trusted, but if she loses the value of use, she will completely abandon the other party without mercy.
In front of Wu Meiniang, the old fritters didn't dare to be presumptuous at all.
"Second Miss, this is this month's account book!"
Wu Meiniang smiled and stretched out her hand to take it, put the account book in front of her with one hand, and put the other hand on the calculation chip in the distance, her eyes stared at the account book, her fingers moved up and down flexibly, and there was a crackling sound. She didn't look at it, and calculated the digital denomination accurately.
The fast and accurate calculation and chipping technology made the three shopkeepers ashamed.
For most of the day's work, Wu Meiniang only took an hour to calculate it clearly.
"It's been a good month, and we've seen an increase from last month...... This is the reward you deserve this month. Wu Meiniang said with a smile, praised the three shopkeepers, and gave the actual reward.
This is a real reward that is worth a thousand words of praise.
Wu Meiniang returned the account book to the three of them, got up and walked down the stairs.
When I came to the third floor, I happened to pass by the eldest grandson Shunde.
The eldest grandson, Shunde, was leading a group of six people to turn around and enter the private room on the third floor.
Wu Meiniang stopped, looked at them, was stunned for a long time, her expression turned solemn in an instant, and she turned around and returned to the fourth floor.
Maple Creek Hall!
Fengxi Hall is one of the sixteen private rooms in the Welcome Building, which is a spacious living room that can accommodate twenty people for dinner. In the background of the living room is an old plane tree, with withered leaves and yellow leaves, presenting an autumn scene.
The hall is decorated with a variety of decorations, all related to the autumn festival, with leaves woven from old vines, and various autumn flowers made of silk and satin, full of autumn atmosphere.
The seats in the hall are appropriately arranged.
This is the most brilliant place in the Fengxi Hall, and the banquet of the ancients is not the same as that of later generations, a big round table. It's like a flowing water seat, one person at a time, and one by one takes turns.
Twenty seats are ten columns, which is already quite spacious. Generally speaking, a private room that seats 20 people like this, and only 8 people are seated, will make people feel empty, and some are not pleasant, just like the Great Hall of the People that can accommodate tens of thousands of people only sits one person.
The Maple Creek Room completely ignores this, and the remaining space is occupied by various furnishings.
Therefore, even if there are seats for 20 people, it does not seem to be empty at all. The huge space is very full and makes people feel comfortable.
There are sixteen rooms like this in the Welcome Building, and he can control the number of people by adding or decreasing furnishings according to the number of people.
It's a small thing, but it leaves a deep impression on the customer, and it makes people feel comfortable and comfortable. This attention to detail is the key to attracting people.
The eldest grandson Shunde sat on the top chairman's seat, raised the wine glass on the table, and said loudly: "Duhe Xiao'er relies on his own strength to spoil me many times. I can't swallow this bad breath no matter what. My nephew Wuji said that as long as you perform well and can suppress Du He, he will definitely reward you and others, give them the opportunity to be promoted, and let you have no worries about food and clothing in this life. ”
The eyes of the six people in the group showed a scorching light, this eldest grandson Wuji has a very high status in the hearts of the masses, and the majority is willing to listen to him.
The first one had a petite face, but his eyes showed a thick fierce light, and he sneered: "The eldest grandson has an order, I don't dare to disobey." As long as it can be used, even if the eldest grandson commands, I, the Iron Claw Eagle Text, will definitely be willing to serve the eldest grandson and contribute to him. ”
The eldest grandson Shunde smiled gloomily: "Wuji has already set up a plan, and I need your cooperation." After the deed is done, you will not be able to benefit from it.
