Chapter 502: The human heart is unpredictable
Emperor Hong Zheng didn't think so, and said with a smile: "He uses this trick often, and he is not in a hurry." ”
"This one! Aren't you afraid that there will really be an enemy situation, and the imperial court will not increase troops? ”
Yan Rongling was very angry, and Zhang Huai, the brave general, actually lied about the military situation. This is simply playing child's play with the border soldiers and treating the court as fools, which Yan Rongling cannot tolerate.
"Rong Ling, if the water is clear, there are no fish, you don't have to worry too much. It is the duty of a king to distinguish whether the military situation is correct, whether it is exaggerated, and whether reinforcements are needed or not. ”
Emperor Hong Zheng said with a smile, and took another book in his hand.
Yan Rongling hesitated for a moment, and said in a low voice: "Father, Zhang Huai is so brazen, and it is really difficult for his sons to agree. ”
When Emperor Hong Zheng heard Yan Rongling speak, he was indeed disdainful of Zhang Huai, and put down the twists and turns in his hand. taught: "Rong Ling, as a king, has a long-term vision. Try not to look at likes and dislikes in employing people, but to look at their strengths. ”
"Father, the son thinks that Zhang Huai is derelict in his duties and should be severely punished!"
Yan Rong Ling Yizheng's words only attracted a smile from Emperor Hong Zheng. Then his eyes were shining, and he looked at Yan Rongling.
"Rong Ling, Zhang Huaike is your future father-in-law. Are you killing your relatives in righteousness? Okay, Zhang Huai has several purposes for falsely reporting the military situation this time, you can talk about it. ”
Yan Rongling pondered for a moment and replied: "This is to ask the imperial court for military salaries, and the second is to let the imperial court always remember Yanmen Pass." ”
"What else?"
Yan Rongling lowered his head: "Back to my father, my son only thinks of two points." ”
"I see, it's not that you didn't expect it, it's that you don't want to say it. In the past, Zhang Huai did not do things as openly as this time, and he deliberately made such a big move, just to make me pay attention to Zhang Dandan. ”
Emperor Hong Zheng said, Yan Rongling was silent.
"He was worried that his daughter would marry into the royal family, and there would be no one to support him, so he reminded me to treat his daughter well."
The look of disgust on Yan Rongling's face swept over, and he said unhappily: "Erchen doesn't like to be persecuted, especially when he is so persecuted by his courtiers. ”
"Rong Ling, what's this. Zhang Huai doesn't want his daughter to marry into the royal family, doesn't he have to send his daughter to the palace obediently? ”
Emperor Hong Zheng said slowly, Yan Rongling lowered his head: "Yes, father." Erchen has been taught, and Erchen will treat Zhang Dandan well, and will not let Yanmen Pass cause chaos. ”
"Rong Ling, this is sometimes, a little bit of a hand can put an end to a disaster, why not do it? Being an emperor seems to be able to control the world, but there are still many helpless things. You have to listen more, learn more, and watch more. ”
"Yes, thank you for your father's teachings."
When Yan Rongling returned to Yinghua Palace, Xiao Yao had just arrived, and the two came to the study.
"You've been pretty idle lately, and you don't run around?"
The prince laughed, and has been investigating the matter of Princess Mingzhu recently. Besides, the prince in the court handled it in an orderly manner, and it was okay to have a micro-minister. ”
Since Xiao Yao became the Marquis of Yingyi, it is naturally impossible to make a long history of the East Palace, and everyone in the world thinks that Xiao Yao is the prince's confidant. But Xiao Yao knew that the prince had alienated himself, intentionally or unintentionally.
Yan Rongling also knew that Xiao Yao was capable, but he still didn't want Xiao Yao to participate in the affairs of the East Palace.
"Okay, you can spend more time with Mingzhu, and the mastermind behind this time must be traced to the end. No matter who it is, no matter how deep it is hidden, Lone will find him. ”
Xiao Yao arched his hand: "Yes, the subordinates receive the order." There is another thing, Weichen found a coincidence, and he didn't know whether to talk about it or not. ”
"It's okay, you say."
Yan Rongling also knew that Xiao Yao would not talk nonsense for no reason, and motioned for him to continue.
Xiao Yao said: "Prince, Weichen found out." In recent years, whenever Yanmen Pass wants to report a higher military salary, there will be a big war. But every time they fight, they can win more with less, and they can also let them return with a big defeat, which is really unreasonable. ”
"Oh, and that matter?"
Yan Rongling's eyes flashed with Limang, this Zhang Huaiguo is really no one in the court, they are all waste, can't see his tricks?
"Yes, His Royal Highness the Prince. Weichen has verified in the military department and the household department that the military salaries, grain and grass used in Yanmen Pass are at the head of the three passes. Of course, last year Shanhaiguan was an exception. ”
Xiao Yao put the position very right, only responsible for finding information, and then gave it to Yan Rongling, as for reporting to the emperor is the prince's matter.
"Thank you for your hard work, do you have an excerpt?"
"Weichen didn't write an excerpt, this is written by the Ministry of War and the head of the household department, please look at it."
Xiao Yao handed over the two detailed information to Yan Rongling, and then said, "Prince, Weichen still wants to visit Princess Mingzhu, so he will retire first." ”
Looking at the back of Xiao Yao leaving, disappearing outside the arch, Yan Rongling's mood was complicated and indescribable.
Xiao Yao is keen on the affairs of the government and can find problems, and he is loyal even if he does not take credit. If he can consciously quit, Yan Rongling thinks that he can do it even if he is the prime minister's assistant.
It's a pity that the hero sees the same thing and is destined to not be reused.
It's okay now, Xiao Yao has the reputation of being a subordinate of the East Palace, and it is impossible for him to take refuge in others, and he can use it for himself.
Xiao Yao left Yinghua Palace and sighed lightly in his heart, people's hearts are changeable. The sixth prince just became the crown prince, so estranged, if he became the ninth five, what would happen?
Grandmother's worries are not groundless, but she has no way to refuse, so she can only find a way to change to protect herself.
And Xiao Yao's worry, Gu Fanghua didn't know, she was hiding in bed with Zhong Taojiao and whispering. As for the content, it is naturally Xiao Yao and Yan Changxin.
When Danzhu came in to report, the two were whispering energetically.
"Princess, Marquis Xiao asks to see you."
"Xiao Yao? Xiao Yao entered the palace? ”
Gu Fanghua then remembered the laughter on the carriage yesterday, and said shyly: "You let him wait outside, I'll come out later." ”
"Yes, Princess."
Zhong Taojiao stretched out her hand to Gu Fanghua's face: "I said that I entered the palace, and you still let Xiao Yao come, why didn't you let Changxin come too?" ”
"It's so delicate, I forgot. In this way, the flowers in the Imperial Garden are very beautiful now, let's go and see them. Let's go together, you don't want blood swallows, I'll let people stew them, you eat and pack some for Yan Changxin. How is it? ”
Zhong Taojiao smiled: "Okay, I want five." ”
"Okay, you can say as much as you want!"
The two got out of bed at this time, and Danzhu hurriedly tidied up his sideburns for Gu Fanghua. Let Mo Lan take one again, and weave a new red skirt to change into.
Gu Fanghua looked at herself in the mirror, her face was ruddy, and she felt that there was something missing.
So Danzhu added some eyebrow color to Gu Fanghua, and painted peach blossom on the forehead, using the newly made peach blossom lipstick. It looks bright and fresh, and it is delicate.
"Mingzhu, why are you getting more and more beautiful?"
Gu Fanghua covered her lips and smiled, and replied, "Jiaojiao, you are also more beautiful, what's the matter?" Yan Changxin didn't praise you? ”
"Nasty!"
The two came out arm-in-arm and laughing, and Xiao Yao, who was standing in front of the court, saw the pearl dressed up in extra elaborate clothes at a glance.
