Chapter 50: Calculation
Su Qibai is a person as gentle as jade outside, and at home, he is naturally a person as gentle as jade.
At least, on the surface.
Gentle, generous, polite and sensible, no matter how you look at it, it is a likable type.
It's a pity that this is for outsiders, for Su Huai's father, and Gu Chang'an, who thinks that Su Qibai's existence is to block him, Su Qibai has no likability.
Not only is it unpleasant, but it is even annoying when he sees Su Qibai.
But this is annoying, and it can't be shown in front of outsiders, after all, Su Qibai is a well-known jade son in the capital, with a good personality, good knowledge, good character, a girl who likes him, and there are not a few rich sons and brothers in the capital who take him as an example, if he says something in front of other girls or sons, the possibility of being beaten is quite large.
Even if he is lucky not to be beaten, it will be remembered by others, and then he will be secretly excluded.
In the same way, the same is true in front of the grand duke of the Qianqing Palace.
Although Su Huai didn't understand what it was that alarmed the great eunuch beside the emperor, he really knew what Su Qibai's personality was, and he also knew what a person with Su Qibai's temperament would and wouldn't do.
also knew that Gonggong Li came to the Prime Minister's Mansion, and he brought a imperial doctor with him, it was absolutely impossible to come to Su Qibai for trouble. It's not to trouble Su Qibai, it can only be a reward.
Thinking of this, Su Huai's eyes flashed with a trace of obscure light, and at the moment when Su Qibai knelt down, he quickly supported him, and said with a little reproach: "Bai'er, how polite are you, get up quickly." ”
White... Bai'er?
Su Qibai's heart was cold, but his face was not at all: "Thank you, father." ”
"Slave Lizi, I've seen Sixth Young Master Su, and Sixth Young Master is fine." After Su Qibai got up, Li Zi then saluted Su Qibai, and said with a smile: "The emperor dictated, Su Qibai, the sixth young master of the Su family, has a gentle personality, is dignified, smart, clever and steady. Prime Minister Su Cheng was very relieved that he could cultivate such an excellent person, and he was named a servant of the Ministry of Officials, and remembered his filial piety. ”
"What?!" Su Huai was terrified, and looked at Su Qibai with an incredible look, looking at this eldest son who had been ignored by him for many years.
Although Su Qibai is not a person in the court, he has a friend of the prince, and he has also been the companion of a particularly arrogant prince, so he has seen a lot of things in the palace.
Even if he has seen a lot, he will definitely know the rules of the palace.
"Thank you, Lord Long." Su Qibai knelt on the ground and said respectfully.
"Congratulations to Prime Minister Su, congratulations to Su Shilang." Li Zi took over the emperor's task of rewarding those people, but it was the first time he saw someone who was rewarded because of the prince's words, so he spoke with a polite voice: "Because Su Shilang, your position was just decided by the emperor, and the Shangyi Bureau has not yet rushed out the clothes, please wait a while, before tomorrow morning, there will be a special person to send you clothes." ”
"Thank you, father-in-law." Su Qibai said.
"Lord Squire is so polite, the slave is really scared." Li Zi said with a smile, "The slave still wants to go back to the palace to restore his life, so he will leave first, and ask Lord Shilang to deign to take Zhang Yuan to the courtyard of the aunt of your mansion, so that it is convenient for him to treat his illness." ”
Worst! Mo was sick all the year round, and he was afraid that he would infect other people in the house, so he deliberately arranged her yard far away.
If the people in the palace see the house where the Mo family lives, and know that the Mo family, the person who raised the concubine of the prime minister's mansion, actually lives in such a dilapidated house, and then spread the news about it, his career as a prime minister will be ruined.
Can't let him know that Mo's house is very dilapidated, yes, no!
Su Huai said in his heart, and then blocked in front of Su Qibai, who was about to leave, and then stuffed the purse hidden in his sleeve into Su Qibai's hand, and whispered: "Li Zi is the big eunuch next to the emperor, very favored, you go and send it to others, and find an opportunity to stuff this into his hand, so it will be good for you in the future, when you send people away, and then take Imperial Doctor Zhang to your aunt when you come back." ”
"Yes." Su Qibai was already a smart person, and when he heard what his father said, he immediately guessed what he meant.
For your own sake? Oh, what he said is really good, he was afraid that he would take Imperial Doctor Zhang to the frost courtyard where his aunt lived, and see the dilapidated main house of the frost courtyard, the courtyard with nothing but the withered trees around, and the house that could only accommodate one person standing and lying down and waiting for one person, he would report this matter to the emperor, and then he would not be able to continue to be his prime minister who was above ten thousand people under one person.
Using letting him send plums out as an excuse and using it as a shield for him is actually to free up a little time, so that his henchmen can quickly get people to a better courtyard, so that Imperial Doctor Zhang, an outsider, knows how good he is to this aunt who raised his son-in-law, so as to have a good impression of him, let him say good things in front of the emperor, and let him go smoothly.
said it so tactfully, so subtlely, it really fooled him like a child.
Su Qibai sneered in his heart, but his face was still not obvious, but he said to Li Xiao's father-in-law: "Father-in-law Li has come from afar and worked hard, so let me send Father-in-law Li out." ”
"Thank you, Squire-sama." Li Zi did not refuse, but glanced at Su Qibai with appreciative eyes, and walked out like this.
"Come on," Seeing Su Qibai leaving, Su Huai couldn't bear it anymore, so he directly called a person, and whispered a few words in his mouth, seeing that the person who was called over by himself nodded and signaled, with a look of "I know", a smile appeared on his face, "Go and prepare." ”
As he spoke, he waved his hand at the little guy, and the little guy understood and left quickly.
Sending away the two big Buddhas and solving the troubles that might happen next, Su Huai's face was much better, and he was more polite to the only remaining big Buddha in front of him, as well as his usual smile.
He walked to the tea table, picked up the cup on the table again, poured a cup for others, and personally sent it to Zhang Sheng: "Doctor Zhang has come from afar to work hard, come, drink a cup of tea to moisten your throat." ”
"Thank you, Prime Minister." Zhang Sheng saw that Su Huai, the prime minister, deigned to pour tea, and the expression on his face could be described as very terrifying. But despite his horrified expression, he still took the tea.
