Chapter 235: Fish-eyed Mixed Talents Can't Be Obtained
Shen Changan faintly felt the other party's displeasure at this time.
"It's okay, if you don't get drunk, you won't go home."
Shen Changan took the wine glass and drank it all, and faced Zhao Kou with the bottomed wine glass, intending to signal that he drank not a drop left.
"Everyone is Shen Chang'an, and it doesn't seem to be the case." Zhao Kou smiled and took a sip of wine.
Shen Changan poured himself another glass of wine, "It's just a lie, besides, since the emperor wants to drink, how dare the minister not accompany him." β
"So, Chang'an doesn't drink alcohol, is it different from person to person?"
Although Zhao Kou had not been on the throne for a long time, his power as an emperor still made Shen Changan feel a little shocked, and he thought carefully about his every move from entering the door to now, but did not find out the reason for Zhao Kou's displeasure.
Then, only before he arrived, he was already displeased.
Thinking of Zhao Kou's words when he first entered the door, Shen Changan knew in his heart that he, as a courtier, had been so late, so it was understandable that the Ninety-Five Venerable had waited for him for a long time, and his son was angry.
However, Shen Chang'an's heart was bitter, he put down his wine glass, got up and knelt on the ground, "The minister is late, let the saint wait for a long time, it is really a crime that deserves death, please punish the saint." β
Zhao Kou was a little pale, and personally got up to help Shen Chang'an: "What is Chang'an doing, I'm just inviting Chang'an to drink tea and wine together, between us, do we still need to make such a big gift?" β
He took Shen Changan back to his position and sat down, and said slowly: "I have learned that Chang'an has already taken General Shen's talisman in Yangcheng, I don't know where the talisman is now?" β
The talisman was in Shen Chang'an's arms at the moment, and he received an order from Zhao Kou to talk to Shangyu, so he knew that he was here for this matter, so he deliberately went to the Shen family's military mansion to get the talisman and wanted to hand it over to the emperor.
However, Emperor Fangcai's temptation made Shen Changan hesitate.
"Back to the emperor, the talisman was placed in the general's mansion by the minister, and only the minister can get it, and Shen Jing's health is not as good as before, the emperor can rest assured."
Zhao Kou's displeasure hung on his forehead again.
Can he not know that Shen Jing's body is not as good as before? He's just trying to get the talisman back, okay?
As an emperor, he has no military power in his hands, but his subordinates have heavy troops, but these courtiers have different thoughts, either the first emperor and important ministers, or the generals who oppose their own positions, and the military power is in the hands of these people, and he can't sleep day and night.
"With Chang'an here, I don't have anything to worry about." Zhao Kou said, "However, General Shen is not in good health now, and the Shen family army can't be without generals for a day, I think, this soldier talisman should be handed over to me first, and the emperor's internal guard will lead the Shen family army first." β
Shen Changan had already expected him to be like this, so he was not surprised, and only said: "Okay, when the minister returns home, take the talisman." β
His intellectual interest made Zhao Kou very satisfied.
"There's no hurry." Zhao Kou said, "I listen, Gu Huaiyu and you are old acquaintances?" β
"This ......" Shen Changan hesitated slightly, but Zhao Kou was obviously very sure of this matter, and did not wait for him to answer, and continued, "Is this person really like the people, a demon girl who brings disaster to the country and the people?" β
"Not at all." Shen Changan hurriedly vetoed, "She is just a woman, where can she afford the words 'disaster to the country and the people', the emperor must not listen to the rumors of the people." β
"Really? But in the past, you were also the one who wanted me to go to the people, to understand the people's feelings, and to listen to the voices of the people. β
Shen Changan was messy, he didn't expect that if he advised him like this, he could also be used by the emperor to block himself, and there was obviously no connection between the two.
"Your Majesty."
"That's it, I'm just asking casually, Chang'an doesn't need to say much." Zhao Kou stopped Shen Chang'an, his eyes looked at the crowded hall downstairs, and suddenly said, "When will Chang'an invite old friends to meet, I can make up a game." β
Shen Changan knew that this was what it meant to see Huaiyu through him.
dignified, if he wants to meet a civilian, he can't call him upright, but to coax people in this way, Shen Changan is quite ashamed of Zhao Kou's approach.
However, he also knew that Zhao Kou had no choice.
Now the ministers of the court and the central government are looking forward to it one by one, hoping that the emperor will order the arrest of Gu Huaiyu in order to recover the three cities in the southwest, if the emperor openly summons Huaiyu, but fails to dispose of Huaiyu, then in that pile
In front of the minister, isn't it majestic to sweep the ground?
Shen Changan felt a little sad for Zhao Kou in his heart.
"Your Majesty, the minister thinks this move is inappropriate." As a courtier, Shen Changan still wanted to try his best to advise, "Zhao Yan once assisted the emperor wholeheartedly, and now Miss Gu is there, as long as the emperor summons her, she doesn't dare not see it." The minister has also heard the voice of the court, but if the emperor takes care of face and does not face this matter, over time, the people's hearts will be lost, but the gains outweigh the losses. β
He tried his best to be tactful, but the meaning of his words still made Zhao Kou hear.
There was silence in the private room for a while.
Shen Changan only felt that his palms were full of fine sweat.
After a while, Zhao Kou spoke: "If Chang'an doesn't want to, just give up." β
"Your Majesty, Ministerβ"
Before Shen Changan finished, Zhao Kou had already brushed his sleeves away.
"Alas!" A soft sigh.
"Childe." Yi Qing's voice came, Shen Changan glanced at the other party weakly, and Yi Qing helped him up distressedly, "Childe, let's go back." β
"Go back, go back."
Back in the carriage of the Shen Mansion, Shen Changan replayed the conversation between Fang Cai and Zhao Kou in his mind, and really saw Zhao Kou clearly.
Zhao Kou is a smart and changeable person, and he has a lot of big words, but he is narrow-minded, nepotistic, and respectful.
This appearance of "respecting the virtuous" made the former self look away, thinking that he was a monarch who valued the virtuous and loved talents, but now it seems that this is not the case.
Shen Changan sighed: "Holy Lord, Holy Lord." β
Now that Zhao Kou is in power, there is no one in the court, Zhao Kou once imitated Gaozu to issue a merit-seeking order, and sought talents in the people's "eclectic", which is undoubtedly what a virtuous monarch will do.
The issuance of the "Talent Seeking Order" has also received a lot of effects, and there is an endless stream of people who have recommended themselves, but it is rare to meet talents, and the endless stream of people who have real talent and learning, who is Mr. Dongguo, or a mess.
Shen Changan once admonished that these people needed to be investigated in many ways before they could be entrusted with important tasks, but Zhao Kou was troublesome and assigned people a big official title.
So much so that now in Kyoto, when you go to Zhengyang Street, where the palm is big, you can meet seven or eight people who are officials.
Such a ridiculous move was not the work of a wise lord.
Shen Changan lifted the curtain and looked at the people on the street with affection, in vain he thought that he had met the Ming Lord, but now it seems that it is a bamboo basket to draw water, and it is empty.
"Is it Shen Gongzi's carriage ahead?"
When Shen Changan was immersed in his thoughts, a deep and powerful voice came.
The hour also knows the month
