Chapter 542: Sun Shangshu

Sun Shangshu's attitude is very clear: I did it, and it was wrong, then I admit it, and I have no complaints about accepting punishment for this. But I don't carry the black pot I haven't done, you can't wronged me.

Although his words were a little weird, they were actually quite reasonable.

However, Zheng Ying was obviously very calm, he silently examined Sun Shangshu, and did not speak immediately, as if he was waiting for Sun Shangshu to finish singing.

Sure enough, seeing that Zheng Ying was so bad at fooling, Sun Shangshu had no choice but to admit defeat honestly. He hung his head, cried and mourned, and even his beard was a little drooping, and prayed to Zheng Ying: "Lord Wang, the minister is really wronged!" The minister is already old, and he has been in the office of the second grade Shangshu for more than ten years, although his political achievements are not outstanding, but he has always been safe and stable. I am not afraid of the prince's jokes when I say it, the minister originally thought that he would stay up for a few more years in a down-to-earth manner, not for merit, but for no fault, and after a few years of begging bones to return to his hometown, even if the emperor looks at the minister's hard work over the years, at least he can give the minister a first-class honorary pension, right? ”

"Lord Wang, think about it, the minister is this age this year, and he is also a high power in the court, what is the benefit of collaborating with the enemy to the minister? Could it be that the Rong Di people can still move a mountain of gold to the ministers? The minister is really wronged! Rajah! You must help the minister to avenge his grievances! ”

This Sun Shangshu shouted with his neck stalked, and prayed softly, but Zheng Ying still had a soft and hard posture, and still stared at Sun Shangshu with an indifferent expression without speaking, as if he was waiting for him to completely open his hole cards.

Zheng Ying, who Sun Shangshu didn't take oil and salt, really had no choice, he completely gave up the idea of stealing and playing tricks, and honestly confessed to Zheng Ying.

"Lord Wang," Sun Shangshu bowed to Zheng Ying: "Don't worry, the minister entered the gate of the Xinwang Mansion today, and he has no intention of turning back." As you said before, if the minister brings these things to the king of Yi, the king of Yi may be able to protect a minister. But in front of the prince, the minister did not dare to deceive. What the minister wants is more than just saving his life. Moreover...... Minister...... Minister and Li Xiang......"

"Lord Wang Zhixiu, do you know that Lord Sun is coming to find this king today?" Zheng Ying suddenly asked.

Sun Shangshu hesitated for a moment, but finally decided to tell the truth: "He doesn't know. ”

"For such a big matter, the adults didn't think to discuss it with Lord Wang?" Zheng Ying chuckled.

"Chen and he are on the same list, and they have been friends for many years." Sun Shangshu sighed: "You don't need to ask, the minister also knows what his attitude is." He and Xie Xiang are in-laws, and such a thing, talking about him, also makes him embarrassed. In fact...... Even if he doesn't say it, he probably knows it in his heart, but no one has broken this layer of window paper. ”

"Lord Sun told the truth this time." Zheng Ying's tone softened a little, not as cold and distant as before.

"The prince is aware of everything, and the ministers do not dare to deceive." Sun Shangshu replied in a sincere tone: "The minister admits that the minister has selfish intentions, so it took a while to make up his mind. But the minister still said that, please rest assured, since the minister has entered the palace today, he has no intention of turning back. The minister's decision to make such a decision was not just a helpless move forced by the situation. Prince, the crown prince is the prince, the future emperor, and it involves the future of our Great Zhou. The minister is the minister of the Great Zhou, and what is the duty of the minister, the minister knows. Therefore, the minister's decision today is by no means just a matter of selfishness. ”

As he spoke, Sun Shangshu suddenly knelt down and solemnly bowed to Zheng Ying: "Your Highness, the minister is willing to trust you, and I believe that you will definitely become a generation of Ming Jun in the future." ”

This is seven points true and three points false. The drama is fully done. Such chanting and playing may seem exaggerated, but it is necessary.

Sun Shangshu, who sings the opera, and Zheng Ying, who is watching the play, actually know it, but the two of them tacitly see through it and don't say it.

What do you believe that Zheng Ying can become a generation of Ming Jun, the words are high-sounding. But in fact, Zheng Ying knew in his heart that in the eyes of most courtiers, his personal conditions were not much different from Zheng Jin.

Sun Shangshu chose him because he felt that he could get a greater return by investing in him. As he said before, what he wants is not only to save his life in this military robbery, but also to get out of the country and keep his future position. Therefore, this is nothing more than a political gamble by Sun Shangshu. If Sun Shangshu went to Zheng Jin and Li Xiangzhu took the lead, his future would not be so secure.

This is the main reason why Sun Shangshu appeared here.

After all, Sun Shangshu still doesn't know the inside story of this military robbery. He is really inclined to believe that there is a conspiracy within the court!

Sun Shangshu knelt, Zheng Ying stood, the room was quiet for a moment, and finally Zheng Ying bent down and personally helped Sun Shangshu up. This move suddenly relaxed Sun Shangshu, who was nervously raising his heart to his throat.

This simple move is like a promise or a contract, from this day on, Sun Shangshu's future political path can only have one direction.

Sun Shangshu thought that after Zheng Ying accepted his surrender, he would carefully inquire about the current situation of the military department in order to readjust the layout. However, what he didn't expect was that as soon as Zheng Ying opened his mouth, he first asked a question that surprised him.

"How many people do you have to trust?" Zheng Ying asked, "You can use it right away." ”

"The two principals, as well as a few Lang Zhong and Ling Shi." Sun Shangshu replied: "There are no officials above the squire. After the minister left the household department, the previous household servants have been transferred, one followed the minister to the military department, and the remaining few have been transferred out of the six departments. ”

"That's ......" Zheng Ying paced back and forth in the study, as if thinking about something, and only after a moment did she ask again, "Can the warehouse still be able to intervene?" ”

"The current secretary is He Wenmao's person." Sun Shangshu replied: "The entire warehouse is firmly controlled by him, and it does not leak. ”

"Master Sun is in the military department, and he knows everything about the household department." Zheng Ying smiled at Sun Shangshu.

This ominous sentence made Sun Shangshu a little confused. But he still honestly said something: "It has been a long time since the minister left the household department, and in fact, many situations are no longer in control. It's just that His Royal Highness asked about the warehouse, but it was a coincidence. The minister happened to find someone to touch the situation of the warehouse before, so he could know something. ”

"Lord Sun has asked someone to touch the situation of the warehouse before?" Zheng Ying turned around and looked interested: "When did it happen?" Lord Sun may wish to talk to this king in detail. ”

"It wasn't that long ago." Sun Shangshu replied: "Your Highness, can you still remember that He Wenmao was rewarded by the emperor at the beginning of the year......
