Chapter 18 The Prince vs. Song Jue

"I want the prince to admonish, but this is not because the prince thought it carefully and felt that the new military policy was beneficial after repeated study, but because the prince had a friend in the rivers and lakes, a young general who was dismissed, and he accidentally talked to the prince about this matter. The crown prince is just curious, so he confirmed it with the emperor. ”

Man Xiangchen nodded: "Feasible." The crown prince ignores the government and can't think of anything so far, but the emperor is different. The speaker is unintentional, the listener is intentional, and according to the emperor's suspicious character, he must test the family's reaction. ”

"That's right. When the time comes, the more fierce and unified the opposition of the family, the more likely it is that the new military policy will be implemented. ”

Man Xiangchen pondered it again, and couldn't help laughing: "Sure enough, Brother Song has a way!" I'm so impressed! ”

Song Jue smiled: "Brother Man is still a few years older than me, he is my elder brother, and it would be annoying for me to say such things." ”

Man Xiangchen shook his head: "Although I am a few years older than you, I am only where I am today thanks to Brother Song." 'Brother' is called a man who never dares to be it. By the way, I heard that Brother Song recently handed over the Sunrise Pavilion to a woman to take care of, but is it true? ”

"That's right."

"When I came here today, I happened to pass by the Sunrise Pavilion, and there were nearly several times more people in the store outside the door than before. Didn't Brother Song always let the Sunrise Pavilion rein in his edge before? ”

"That woman's name is Zhao Po, and she is Zhao Songshi's eldest daughter. She recommended herself, but I just didn't refute Mr. Zhao's face, so let her give it a try. I was really surprised that it worked so well. ”

"If you say this, the emperor really won't put this matter on Brother Song's head."

After the two chatted again, Man Xiangchen said goodbye and went home.

Wei Feng said with emotion: "Among so many people in the cabinet now, Gongzi can only trust Gongzi with all his heart. ”

Song Jue said with a smile: "It is already luckier to have someone who can be trusted than too many people in the cabinet." Man Xiangchen himself is a good seedling of governing the country, his family background is ordinary, he has my help, his parents are taking care of the Song family's shop, my sister's marriage is presided over by me, and his daughter-in-law is also the daughter of the Song family, so that I can have a sincere fellowship with him. You told me to train a few more people who know each other, and I don't have the strength to do so. ”

Wei Feng was sad for a while: "Don't worry, Childe, I will sincerely serve Childe." ”

Song Jue lightly slapped Wei Feng and said with a smile: "Why are you suddenly saying this." He Lou Mu said that the news about Zhao Po should be released a little more. ”

"This ......"

"What's wrong?"

"I heard that the second elder of the Zhao family has been looking for Miss Zhao's husband everywhere recently. If we release the news that Miss Zhao is taking care of the Sunrise Pavilion, there will definitely be more people proposing to the Zhao Mansion. ”

"It doesn't matter. Remember to send a letter of worship to the Prince's Mansion, I want to visit tomorrow. ”

"Yes."

The prince of this dynasty was born with a delicate jade and pink appearance, although he is a prince who is a sure thing, but he is not good at government affairs, he likes to visit rivers and mountains, and he is good at poetry and songs.

Therefore, it took Song Jue a lot of effort to explain the meaning of this visit.

The prince's eyes were half-narrowed, he looked at the person in front of him, and said tentatively: "I'm very curious, why does Gongzi Song think that I will be an enemy of my father for you?" ”

The prince's words are wrong. The implementation of the new military policy can not be regarded as against the Holy Lord. The rules and regulations of the imperial court should put the interests of the people first. But now the local princes forcibly occupy important positions in the army, and the selection of officials does not care about the ability to command the army, but only depends on the distance between relatives and relatives. How many people in this world practice martial arts freely, full of enthusiasm, and vow to be loyal to and defend the country, but they are unable to do so for the rest of their lives because of the chaos of the princes? The prince has traveled all over the world, and he must have seen many poor people who are useless in their abilities. The prince was reluctant to step into the court disputes, so it was naturally difficult to recommend them. But now that you have the opportunity to make a good future for these people, don't you have any feelings in your heart? ”

After listening to Song Jue's words, the prince lowered his head and thought for a moment, and continued to ask: "What you want to cut is the power of a person of the same clan and origin as me, why should I help you?" ”

"The power of the royal clan is given by all the people of the world and granted by His Majesty. But the princes of various places disregarded the law of the country, wantonly amassed wealth, and oppressed the people, which was worthy of the emperor's grace. How can I not cut it? Seeing that the prince was still a little hesitant, Song Jue added: "Presumably the prince also remembers how the Su Tang Master's family fell, right?" ”

Hearing this, the prince's eyes tightened, and finally said, "Okay, I'll help you." When I enter the palace tomorrow to greet my father, I will mention the new military policy. ”

Song Jue said unhurriedly: "Thank you, prince." It's just that Song Mou handed over the post, and he must know that there are many people who came to the prince's mansion today. If I am a guest today, the prince will enter the palace tomorrow to admonish, which will inevitably arouse suspicion. ”

"It makes sense, too. Then I'll go out of the city in the next few days and re-enter the palace after a while, is it okay? ”

"Song is grateful."

The prince stared at Song Jue, and his tone became heavier: "Although I will help you this time, it is only for the sake of the world's well-educated people." If you abuse your power and disrupt the court in the future, no matter what power you have, I will not allow you to be presumptuous. ”

The prince was serious. The court was already dark, and what Song did was just to remove the dark clouds and draw light. ”

The prince looked at Song Jue and said bluntly: "I don't like you." Although Zhao Po thinks as much as you, he is not half as treacherous as you. You are scheming, knowing that if you threaten me this time, I may not be able to follow, but you just take the sword sideways, what is it for? ”

The prince's suspicion and boredom smashed naked at Song Jue.

But how is it not the truth that he said?

For so many years, Song Jue has always had a three-point smile on the corner of his mouth, and he never shows any emotions when he encounters problems, how can he be considered frank?

Song Jue's eyes were slightly dark, but the etiquette was still thoughtful: "I am unwilling to coerce the prince, first, because the prince is the prince, and his status is far above Song, so he dare not exceed the etiquette and commit the following crimes; The second is to believe that the prince has a great Yu Sheji in his heart and the people of the world. The new military policy is a fair method for selecting and employing troops in the future, and if it is implemented by dirty means, wouldn't it be contrary to the original intention? ”

"What you said is good, I hope you can always learn from yourself in the future and not do anything to hurt the country and the people."

Song Jue bowed and changed the topic: "Mei Ling of the Sunrise Pavilion, can Miss Zhao send it?" ”

"She personally delivered it yesterday."

"Mei Ling is just talking about our gratitude to the prince for helping the Sunrise Pavilion, without any other deep meaning, and I hope the prince will not worry too much."

The prince smiled meaningfully: "It's really strange, Zhao Po also said such a thing when he came to send Mei Ling yesterday." ”

"Oh?" Song Jue also smiled, "That's really a coincidence." ”

The prince has never liked to have too close relationships with people in the court, and Song Jue is also well aware of this, so he left not long after.

After Song Jue left, the prince couldn't help but think about meeting today.

I heard my father mention Song Jue in a few words before. said that this person has no friends in the court, and the Song family's industry is not very prosperous in his hands, but he is just a mediocre son. But today's conversation made the prince begin to doubt this judgment.

"What's wrong?" Su Zijin appeared out of nowhere, disrupting the prince's contemplation.

The prince looked up and smiled: "It's nothing." By the way, I'm very idle in the next few days, can you take me out for a walk? ”

Su Zijin said apologetically: "There have been a lot of things in the hall recently, I'm afraid I can't do without it." ”

"It's okay, then I'll go back to Mingyi Hall with you. You just take care of things, and I promise not to bother you. The prince swore an oath.

"Okay, it's up to you." Su Zijin pinched the tip of the prince's nose and smiled dotingly.
