Chapter VII State and Family Affairs
Yang Yuanqing drank tea expressionlessly, and said lightly after a while: "You mean to transfer this pressure to me, right!" ”
"Don't dare to be humble, humiliation is just ......"
Han Shouzhong didn't know what to say, let out a long sigh in his heart, and slowly lowered his head, he didn't care anymore, whatever King Chu did with himself!
Yang Yuanqing glanced at him, in fact, he admired this Han Shouzhong very much, he was honest and upright, and he was not afraid of the powerful, otherwise he would not have let him hold such an important position as the secretary and the imperial history, but this Han Shouzhong has never been mixed in the power circle, and has always been a local official, so it is difficult for him to adapt to this kind of deceitful officialdom struggle for a while.
But Yang Yuanqing needs someone like him to be the watchdog of officialdom, and he will not interfere in the power struggle, but he can't violate the rules set by him Yang Yuanqing, so in other words, Yushutai is the guardian of the rules.
Yang Yuanqing showed a smile on his face, and said slowly: "I know your background very well, you have been poor since you were a child, and you gradually embarked on a career because of the help of the Su family, five years of great business, you a little Lantian Wei dared to beat Yuan Min with a cane, offended Yuan Shou, but Su Wei told the first emperor about this, so that you were appreciated by the first emperor and promoted to Sima of Hanzhong County, this time it was Su Wei who strongly recommended you, Su Wei is indeed kind to you, from this point, you should be grateful to him." ”
"I have always remembered Su Xiangguo's kindness."
Yang Yuanqing continued: "You don't have to think about the officialdom struggle too terrible, the shopping mall is actually the same, even the old farmers who farm have to fight for some mud and dung, where there are people, there is a struggle, Su Xiangguo asked you to impeach Wang Su, you feel a lot of pressure, I think you are carrying the burden yourself, the most important thing to do the imperial history is to be right about things and not people, you don't have to think about what motives it is, Wang Su should be impeached if he has a problem, if there is no problem." I don't think Su Xiangguo will put any more pressure on you, you won't be impeached, right? ”
Han Shouzhong nodded silently, "It's not about things, it's not about people, I understand what the manager means." ”
"Nope! You haven't understood yet. ”
Yang Yuanqing said earnestly: "Although there are struggles where there are people, there are still favors where there are people, and it is normal to know how to repay kindness." Kindness to Su Xiangguo. It's not that you want to listen to him in everything to repay your kindness, no, Su Xiangguo is already old. It won't be long in coming, and if the Su family is in trouble in the future, you will reach out to help at that time. This is to repay his kindness, official affairs are official affairs, private affairs are private affairs, as long as you are doing official affairs, after a long time, others will no longer say that you are the Soviet Party, and you can convince people with an iron face. ”
Han Shouzhong stood up and bowed deeply, "The words of the manager." Humility is kept in mind. ”
Yang Yuanqing waved his hand again and smiled: "Sit down!" I'm looking for you for something else. ”
At this time, a housekeeper brought Luo Ji in, "Master, Luo Ji is here." ”
Luo Ji hugged the child and bowed to Yang Yuanqing, "See master!" ”
Yang Yuanqing saw that Luo Ji's complexion was much better than when he sued a few months ago, so he gained weight. It seemed that he was doing well in his own mansion, he nodded, pointed at Han Shouzhong and said to Luo Ji: "This is Han Yushi, the supervisor of the imperial court, and he is responsible for the grievances you have suffered." Say it to him! ”
Although Luo Ji lived in the Chu Palace, she had no worries about food and clothing. But the grievances in her heart were accumulating deeper and deeper, and she finally waited for the moment of revenge, and immediately knelt down and shouted sadly: "Please make the decision for the people and daughters!" ”
Han Shouzhong was stunned for a moment, he actually met a civil girl sue in the palace of the king of Chu, he glanced at Yang Yuanqing, Yang Yuanqing was slowly drinking tea, looking at him with a smile, Han Shouzhong knew that he had encountered an exam question, he didn't dare to slack off, and immediately said in a deep voice: "Please get up and talk slowly." ”
The housekeeper next to him helped Luo Ji up, Luo Ji lowered her head, and told the things before and after, Han Shouzhong was suddenly shocked, Wang Xu's son was actually worshiped in the Tang Dynasty Prince's Mansion Literature Museum, Wang Xu is secretly colluding with the enemy country!
Moreover, the King of Chu knew about this matter last year, and he waited until today to make a difficulty, which shows that the King of Chu is cautious, and Han Shouzhong understands that this matter is very important, otherwise the King of Chu will not let himself come to his mansion.
Han Shouzhong's mind quickly turned a few thoughts, and said to Luo Ji: "I have written down this matter, but I need to go to the capital to verify, it may take a little time, and I ask you to write a complete copy of the pleadings, I will send someone to pick it up in two days, in short, this matter will definitely give you an explanation." ”
Luo Ji thanked him for his kindness and left with his housekeeper first, and then Han Shouzhong said to Yang Yuanqing: "Please forgive Your Highness, there is no conclusive evidence, and you can't impeach a Xiangguo because of a woman's oral statement, you must have conclusive evidence to do it." ”
Yang Yuanqing nodded, "This is your business, I won't ask, let alone interfere, you just do it according to your own ideas." ”
"Humble resignation."
Yang Yuanqing remembered something again and said to him: "Regarding the assassination case of Anjin Temple, you don't have to ask about it, you concentrate on handling the current case well." ”
"Yes! He retired first. ”
Han Shouzhong said goodbye and left, Yang Yuanqing pondered for a moment, got up and walked out of the room, and just arrived in the courtyard, the housekeeper's wife greeted him and said, "Master, Madame, please go to the backyard and say that there is something important." ”
"I see!"
Yang Yuanqing knew what his wife was looking for him, he was a little upset, hesitated, and walked to the backyard.
After a while, he walked into the main courtyard where Pei Minqiu lived, and a maid said in a loud voice in the courtyard: "Madam, the master is here." ”
Walking into the side hall, Pei Minqiu greeted him, "Husband is here so soon." ”
"Hmm!"
Yang Yuanqing nodded, and saw his eldest son Yang Ning sitting on the table in front of the window writing, Yang Ning immediately put down his pen, stood up and said respectfully: "Father." ”
"What are you writing about?" Yang Yuanqing smiled slightly, the average family is very strict with the eldest son, but Yang Yuanqing is more lenient with himself, he rarely reprimands his daughter, and the same is true for the eldest son, mainly because he is often outside, if he is strict with his son, it will affect the relationship between their father and son, which is also a lesson when he was a child.
Yang Ning could feel the love in his father's smile, his heart was extremely warm, and he hurriedly replied, "Back to my father, it's the content of tomorrow's class, and my master has told me in advance, and my mother asked me to write it again." ”
Yang Yuanqing touched the back of his son's head and said softly: "Go to the next room and write!" I have something to say to your mother. ”
"Yes!" Yang Ning packed his things and went out.
Yang Yuanqing sat down in his son's seat just now, smiled at Pei Minqiu and asked, "What's the matter with coming to me?" ”
Pei Minqiu sighed, "What else can I do, it's about the Wang family, after all, it's my uncle, and the Wang family is also a world-famous family, I know that I can't interfere in your government affairs at will, I just want to ask your subordinates to show mercy and save a little face for the Wang family, how can I say it?" ”
Pei Minqiu was very embarrassed, she never asked Yang Yuanqing about government affairs, but once the news of the Wang family spread, it would seriously affect the reputation of the Wang family, which was a fatal blow to the family, she didn't want to beg Yang Yuanqing to let the Wang family go, she just hoped that he could save a little face for the Wang family.
"I see what you mean, all right! I will give Wang Xu a chance to resign by himself, if the Wang family is willing to cooperate, then I am also willing to protect the reputation of the Wang family, if he chooses to fight, then I have nothing to do. ”
Pei Minqiu nodded, sat down opposite Yang Yuanqing, and said in a low voice: "I've been really embarrassed recently, for family matters, my mother was still arguing with my grandfather in front of me a few days ago, which was really annoying. ”
"Why is that?" Yang Yuanqing asked with some curiosity, he knew that Mrs. Wang's relationship with Pei Ju had always been stiff because of Minqiu's father's matter, but she would not tear her face and quarrel, how much of a fuse would be needed for this.
Pei Minqiu said helplessly: "Because of my second brother, my mother wanted me to find a job for him, but my grandfather severely stopped me, which aroused the new and old hatred in my mother's heart, and the two quarreled, and finally broke up unhappily, and my father had no choice but to be caught in the middle." ”
Yang Yuanqing actually understood what Pei Ju meant, and wanted to shrink the expansion of the Pei family, this was the hint when he appointed Pei Qingsong as the secretary to join the army, Pei Ju should understand his hint, this time to deal with the Wang family, the next one is the Pei family, he very much hopes that the Pei family can take the initiative to shrink, then everyone looks good.
Yang Yuanqing pondered for a long time, and then said: "You find a time to tell your mother today, I can make special arrangements for Pei Ming's affairs, I will let him join the army as a civilian officer, so that he will not occupy the quota of the imperial court, and his grandfather can also explain it, in addition, don't tell your mother about the Wang family, you should not know about it." ”
Yang Yuanqing's understanding made Pei Minqiu's heart knot in the past few days untie it at once, she was very grateful in her heart, and hurriedly saluted: "Thank you husband for your help, so that I can face my family." ”
Yang Yuanqing smiled bitterly, "What else do you have to do so politely between husband and wife, as long as you can do it, I will do it for you." ”
Pei Minqiu was overjoyed, pursed his lips and smiled, and walked out, "I'll give you sencha, and you can rest here with me." ”
Yang Yuanqing lay down on the couch, rested his head on his hands, and slowly closed his eyes, it was only the first day he came back today, and there were so many things, it really made him a little tired......
The carriage was speeding down the street, Han Shouzhong looked out the window, but he was thinking about what the King of Chu had explained, and he now understood Su Wei's real intention of impeaching Wang Su, and the King of Chu wanted to deal with the Wang family, which Su Wei figured out in advance.
Knocking out Wang Su first is equivalent to breaking Wang Xu's arm, and in the next step, as long as the evidence of Wang Ling's matter is conclusive, Wang Xu's phase will definitely not be saved, even if he does not resign, he will be deposed, and no prime minister will secretly arrange his son to go to the enemy country.
At the same time, Han Shouzhong was still thinking about the exhortation of the King of Chu to himself, to do the imperial history to do things and not people, to deal with Wang Xu, he still has a lot of things he doesn't understand, but the King of Chu refuses to tell him, what kind of means should he take, moderate or aggressive?
Han Shou was very embarrassed, and after a long time, he finally made up his mind and told the coachman in a loud voice, "Turn around and go to Su Xiangguo's mansion!" ”
Since it's not the right thing, it's not about the person, so it doesn't matter if you ask Su Wei about this matter.
