497 To each his own calculates
"The son sends off his father." Li Er hurriedly saluted.
"Congratulations to the Emperor." The eldest grandson Wuji, Wei Zheng, Xiao Yu, Qin Qiong and other civil and military officials saluted together and sent the former emperor away in unison.
Waiting until Li Yuan's figure disappeared around the corner and couldn't be seen, Li Er had a calm face, accompanied by the eunuch Si Li, returned to his throne, and looked around, all the civil and military officials lowered their heads, no one spoke, and they wanted to rush at Chai Shao, this is just a trivial matter, and it actually alarmed the father and emperor in the deep palace, it is simply a big fuss, but when he saw Chai Shao's sincere and frightened look, and then looked at his face that was no longer young, he remembered the days when his brother-in-law and sister fought bloodily with him.
Not to mention anything else, just when the army Xuanjia Army was formed, Princess Pingyang gave great support, asked people to give people, asked for money to give money, more than 10,000 elite women's army, with Li Er to select soldiers, when falling into a bitter battle, Chai Shao and Li Annihilation, personally led the strange soldiers to kill, several times to turn the tide of the battle and save Li Er in danger, Li Er missed the old love the most, when he thought of Chai Shao and the good of the imperial sister, the anger in his heart disappeared all of a sudden, and sighed softly
Pity the hearts of parents all over the world, it's just strange, that firewood makes Wutai not grow up.
The secret guards who are responsible for monitoring the emperor's relatives and high-ranking officials and ministers, every once in a while, they will summarize the small things in the ordinary life of these people and play them to Li Er, what kind of person Liu Yuan is, and what kind of person his nephew is, Li Er is naturally clear, according to Li Er's character, it is definitely to reprimand his nephew with hatred and steel, and order him to think about it, but the emperor Li Yuan is so stirred, and he can't do it as before.
It's okay like this, although he was trained to be like a grandson, this time he was biased, and the people of the Qinghe Cui clan also saw it. At that time, it will be understandable, but it will save yourself some tongue.
"Eldest Sun Xiang." Li Er said suddenly.
"Wechen is here." Hearing Li Er's call, the eldest grandson Xiang, who had been prepared for a long time, immediately went out to listen to the order.
"Release Chai Buqing immediately and let him go back to Chai Mansion to recuperate, as for Liu Yuan, the general of Yangwei, he gathered a crowd to make trouble, behaved badly, and continued to be detained, and he must not be released until the matter is clarified."
The eldest grandson Xiang immediately responded: "The minister obeys the order." ”
Li Er continued: "In addition. You are limited to hand in a detailed copy of the note within today, and there must be no mistakes. ”
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Chai Shao's face appeared in joy, while Cui Jing and Cui Shang had faces as heavy as water. There was also a hint of helplessness in his eyes, like Cheng Biting Jin and others. It seems thoughtful. But there was no move, that is, Wei Heizi Wei Zheng, it didn't seem to be about the interests of the Tang Dynasty, and the emperor himself came forward, he always saw his nose and looked at his heart, and he didn't jump out to accuse him of being inappropriate.
This is called loyalty. And not foolishness.
An early dynasty was disturbed by such a farce, Li Er was a little absent-minded, and the ministers also had their own plans. Seeing that the emperor was in a bad mood, the ministers who had the heart to play also retreated, so that a good court meeting broke up unhappily.
With Li Er's instructions, Changsun Xiang did it all at once, first politely sent Chai Lingwu, the "plague god", away, and then began to interrogate him personally, the city gate caught fire, and the pond fish were affected, Changsun Xiang waved his hand, and the Ambiguous Spring Tower, which brought trouble to himself, was also sealed, and even the old bustard, the turtle and the prostitute, detained dozens of people at once, showing the prestige of Yongzhou Mansion.
Of course, it is also to lay the groundwork for a filial piety afterwards.
Cui Jing's mood was so bad that as soon as the court meeting dispersed, he didn't even return to the yamen, and went straight back to Cui's mansion, and Cui Shang also felt that the situation was serious, so he also followed Cui Jing back to Cui's mansion to discuss countermeasures.
In the study, with a "snap", Cui Jing knocked the tea lid hard, and said with a straight face: "When people are unlucky, they will stuff their teeth even if they drink water." ”
"Third brother, don't be bored, we can take a long-term plan for this matter." Cui Shang understood his mood and hurriedly reassured him.
"Can you not be in a hurry? Seeing that there is still a month to get married, those royal relatives and relatives have seen that our scholars are not pleasing to the eye in the morning, eldest brother, haven't you heard, the meaning of the old immortal is to punish until the firewood makes Wu satisfied, this time, don't they take the opportunity to ridicule fiercely? By the way, big brother, have you seen it, the Taiyuan Wang family is still on the side of the surname Chai. Cui Jing said hatefully.
After all, Yongzhou Mansion does not have many people, but it has jurisdiction over hundreds of thousands of people, and it can be dragged for any reason, they can drag it, but Qinghe Cui's family can't drag it, and there has been a joke, and then the church will get married, and the groom is still in prison.
Cui Shang said coldly: "The clown who jumps the beam, he has forgotten his position, and he is willing to be driven by others, sooner or later he will die of a cunning rabbit and a lackey cook, but the third brother does not need to be pessimistic, and it is not without good news." ”
"Big brother, do you mean the attitude of some military generals?"
"Yes, Xiaoyuan's method of equalizing interests is very good, a highway, all of a sudden big family is united, and those famous generals in the army also speak for Xiaoyuan, in this way, our Cui family also has a few more powerful allies, in addition, the emperor's attitude is also the key, if it weren't for the sudden appearance of the emperor, Xiaoyuan has been released, and returned to the Yangwei military camp, it can be seen that the emperor is very important to Xiaoyuan, but the old man is a little puzzled."
Cui Jing said curiously: "Big brother, what's wrong? ”
"With the relationship between Chai Shao and the emperor, even if Princess Pingyang is not there, the relationship is very good, the Chai family is the founder of the country, especially at the beginning of the uprising, sponsored a huge amount of money and silver to the Li family, and has also fought side by side with the emperor many times, now it is just a young man who is jealous, it is not a big deal, Chai Shao only needs to talk to Li Er, this face, Li Er is still happy to give it to him, but he is willing to give it to him, such a small matter, even the emperor of Tai'an Palace was shocked, it is really incomprehensible." Cui Shang noticed these details early on, but he hadn't thought about it yet.
After abdicating, Li Yuan became the emperor, moved to the Tai'an Palace, and lived the life of the emperor. Knowing that the power has been held by Li Shimin, he is discouraged, so he no longer interferes in political affairs, and occasionally attends some sacrificial ceremonies, Li Er inserts eyeliner beside him, but it does not limit his body, but Li Yuanren is old and weak, and he has been recuperating in the palace.
Caring is chaotic, I was angry just now, I didn't pay attention to this detail for a while, now listening to the eldest brother, Cui Jing put his back behind him, and thought about it while pacing in the study, this is his habit, when he thinks about things, he will pace unconsciously, and Cui Shang tapped the porcelain cup with the lid of the cup intentionally or unintentionally, closed his eyes, and he was also thinking.
Officialdom is not simple, sometimes a word, a gesture or a look, also has a profound meaning, for the general, see the six ways, listen to the eight directions, so that you can grasp the opportunity on the battlefield, a hundred battles; As an official, observe the face and look at the color, see the wind and make the rudder, so that you can be like a fish in water in the officialdom and make steady progress.
That Chai Shao can be described as both civil and military, and he actually made such an abnormal move in the end, which does not make people think deeply.
With a "bang", Cui Jing suddenly punched the case, and said hatefully: "This Chai surnamed Tian Shenu is so calculating." ”
"Third brother, what's wrong?" Cui Shang's eyes widened and he hurriedly asked.
This third brother, I don't know if he has a lot of projects, all kinds of people have a lot to deal with, and he has a lot of experience in grasping people's hearts.
Cui Jing sneered and said: "Big brother, you still remember that in the spring of last year, Chai Laogou asked for an official for his son, and as a result, he arranged a servant Shaoqing, although he is a four-grade member, but it is just an idle position, not much to do, firstly, Chai Lingwu's talent is limited, and secondly, it is also related to his arrogant personality, which is not likable, Chai Laogou is reluctant to send his son to the battlefield, and wants to get a position of real power, the emperor appoints people on the basis of merit, and does not agree, this matter is delayed"
"People go tea and cool, there are some things, you can use it not to use, and when you don't have to use it, you can't regret it, it is rumored in the palace that the body of the emperor is like a river going down, and it won't last long, that Chai Lao Dog took advantage of his breath to use his love for Chai Lingwu to increase the pressure on the emperor, and made this matter bigger, it didn't end well, it was clearly taking advantage of the opportunity of Xiaoyuan and Meng Yao to get married, deliberately embarrassing Liu Yuan, and indirectly forcing us to give in and give in. With the help of our Cui clan, if we want our two children to get married on time, we have to pass his pass, and the condition for passing his pass is to find a good position for Chai Lingwu. ”
Cui Shangxian gasped, and said a little indignantly: "Sure enough, the calculation is very deep, and we Qinghe Cui clan are all used as swords." ”
"There is so much meat, if he eats it, others will naturally have to eat less" Cui Jing said with a little hatred: "Liu Yuan, that guy, drink flower wine, drink flower wine, why meddle in things, make this mess for us to clean up, this is really not good, I am really angry." ”
"Hehe, third brother, you are content, I thought I had wronged Xiao Yao, but I didn't expect you to be wise and talented, and picked up a treasure, you don't know how many families in the market are red and jealous, and some people still want to marry their daughters as concubines. When he officially becomes his own person, this kind of thing, just a little bit of appropriation, is not a bad thing. Cui Shang said with a smile.
Cui Shang thought that he also had a lustful problem, so he smiled embarrassedly for a while, and he didn't care about Liu Yuan's recklessness.
"Big brother, what now?" Cui Jing couldn't make up his mind for a while, so he turned his head and asked his eldest brother, Cui Shang, who is also the patriarch of the Cui clan in Qinghe, to see what his opinion was.
"Everyone else has given the script, then sing the opera" Cui Shang said calmly: "It's not a big deal, as long as it doesn't damage the interests of our Qinghe Cui family, it's not bad to give someone a ride, hehe, don't the Shanxi Wang family like jumping very much, borrow flowers to worship the Buddha, then let them Wang come out, or I can't show my Qinghe Cui family's means."
