A preliminary plan was formulated, the Song family, the Cui family and the Yang family all began to act secretly, first to listen to the tone, what is the idea of the reform, if you firmly shake your head and refuse, there will be no follow-up, if you are hesitant, you can fight for it, if you firmly follow the pace of the emperor, you can further contact one or two.

A few days later, Cui Hao sent a message that Lord Li of the Li family, the father of Li Qing, the eldest son of the right minister, personally came to the Cui family and talked with the Cui family for a long time.

is willing to support Zilan, and said that Old Man Li is willing to elect Zilan as the treasurer's authority at the right time, taking charge of all the powers of the treasurer, and is also willing to give silver money support.

Zilan was quite strange, "The Li family is not an ordinary family, how could they fall in love with me, a little girl?" ”

She was still very surprised.

Cui Hao suddenly couldn't help laughing, stretched out his hand and flicked her head, and got her angry eyes, before he spoke, "Silly girl, do you know who the person who wanted Li Qing to marry you was in the first place?" ”

Zilan rolled her eyes, "It won't be Grandpa Li." ”

"Yes, it's him, the old man is the right minister, a figure as famous as my grandfather, Li Qing is a stupid hat, and the old man of the Li family is a shrewd person, otherwise how can he be the prime minister in charge of hundreds of officials."

"However, Li Qing was very disdainful of me, I didn't expect this at the time."

It's no wonder that she doesn't know, Li Qing and Cui Hao are people with different personalities, and their thoughts are different.

Li Qing's mother is actually still willing, but it's not too much to be a little cautious. The old man didn't expect that the eldest grandson would treat the family reputation as dung for a woman who was not brilliant, and as a result, he couldn't clean it up later.

You also know that people in official positions like my grandfather are usually very busy, and the old lady dotes on the children a little, and the old man doesn't know many things, but it is too late to know about it, and he is angry for this old man.

Now I start to cultivate the second son of the Li family, the one who is out of the second room, oh is the son who bought you Su Hexiang last time, Li Qing has been completely abandoned by the family, and only his father is unwilling to give up. ”

"Oh, I understand, Grandpa Li thinks that my entry into the door can bring benefits to the family, and he also wants me to be a clan wife, and Li Qingmo and the old man have completely different ideas and preferences, and they don't see much of the world when they are young, and they are fooled by petty gentleness, which ruins the old man's whole plan."

"Yes, how could the old man not know that the Song family was annoyed with his family, they were estranged a lot, and they have been trying to find a way to reconnect with their feelings, this is a good opportunity, one is for state affairs, the emperor's reform itself has no selfish intentions, so it should be supported;

Second, it can also repair the relationship with the Song family, the Song family is also a prestigious family, and its own energy is also very strong, there is no reason to change from a friend to a stranger, which is too much of a loss. Third, you are indeed the right person.

The last one is a little bit of a secret mind, and you're better suited than the rest of them. ”

Cui Hao hesitated for a moment, but swallowed back what he wanted to say.

Zilan smiled, "Because I'm a girl, it doesn't matter if I grasp the wealth and power, I can't grasp too much power, as for the family in power, I am not afraid, the emperor can naturally control your family and the Song family or the Yang family, and will not leave his palm, so I am the right person."

If you want financial power, you can't be excessively contaminated with power, let alone form a party to run a private favor with the prince, and it is the duty of a courtier to maintain neutrality. ”

These days, she has pondered in her heart over and over again, and she has also talked with her father and brother, and the answer she got is the same.

Cui Hao touched her little face, his voice was gentle and solemn, "Don't be sad Lan'er, politics itself is an ugly thing, when I was a child, my grandfather often told me that it is every man's dream to want to do a career, if you can't ask for it directly, then how to ask for it without violating your heart and conscience." It's up to us to stay the same. ”

Zilan smiled, "I'm fine, I didn't have that much desire for power, I just wanted to fight for more resources and opportunities for my family at the beginning, even if it was a chance to compete with others, it was good, now my father is already a second-class official, he will think about it himself in the future, and he doesn't need me to do much."

I just want to do something and use my ability to help more people, my thinking may be a little narrow-minded, or because I am not a boy and an official, I think that the common people want to live a good life with food and clothing, and this premise is that they have money and food, and they are not panicked. ”

"That's right, you're right, although it's very simple, but the truth is really the same, don't county officials also want poor counties to become rich counties for the sake of political performance and official positions."

Cui Hao admires Zilan more, what's wrong with loving money, she doesn't just care about her own luxury, but has been using money to help the people all these years, and has done a lot of things, better than many officials, and the wool business has helped a lot of people in the northwest.

"Don't worry, I know what you mean, I only need financial power and nothing else, if you do something wrong, you can remind me at any time, I am willing to change if I am wrong, and I can't harm my parents and brothers because of my willful conceit, the Geng family is a lesson from the past."

She knows very well that this era is not her era, and she must be more cautious, if she accidentally wants to raid her family and exterminate the clan, there are even nine clans, how can she be a child's play.

"I believe in you, no matter what difficulties you encounter, we will bear it together in the future, and share weal and woe."

Cui Hao gave her a brain crash in the head.

"Well, it hurts."

Zilan rolled her eyes at him angrily and complained angrily.

"Squeamish."

"Nasty."

"I won't be able to come back in a few days, if you need anything, just ask someone to find Mo Ding and bring me a message."

Cui Hao's intimate advice.

"Well, I see."

Cui Hao left in a hurry, he still has a lot of things to do, the reform is bound to continue, this is a matter of Zilan, and his honor and disgrace are one, he naturally has to run one or two more for her outside.

Yuping sent someone to spread the word, saying that the training effect was very good and worth looking forward to, but the cultivation was too poor.

Zilan is not surprised, these soldiers originally had combat merits and actual combat experience in fighting immediately, but now they can be penetrated by a slight pinch of the master.

I thought of a question and went to the study to see my father.

"Dad, are you busy?"

"Come in without busyness, I have something to say."

Song Zhengtian beckoned to his daughter and instructed the little girl to make tea and have a cup of tea with her daughter.

"Uncle Yuping said that the cavalry training effect is very good, but the cultivation is a little worse, I pondered and asked if you can help them, I can see if you can sell something.

If you don't agree, I won't do it. The Praetorian Guards are leaving, and they can't only take care of their own people alone, which is a bit petty, so I am quite hesitant. ”

Song Zhengtian smiled with a smile on his face, his eyes were gentle and loving, "Do you think that they are fighting on the battlefield, they are all heroes who stand up to the sky, and they will encounter more dangers in the future, so they want to secretly help, so that they can have more self-protection power, so as not to let their families become orphans and widows." ”

"Actually, it's also for myself, the emperor didn't say when I would return it, I want to use it for a year or two first, and then return it, settle personal favors and favorites, and leave a good relationship in the future, even if it doesn't work, it doesn't matter, and I don't lose too many things."

Zilan stuck out her tongue and smiled embarrassedly.
