Chapter 279: Retreat is Advance

Shen Baiqing was worried that what she said next might displease His Majesty, but she still planned to inform His Majesty.

"Your Majesty, something like that happened in Su Ji a few days ago, and the courtiers were also very sad.

The courtiers just hope that His Majesty can keep Su Ji, and His Majesty also knows about Su Ji's income over the years. ”

"I understand what you mean, don't worry, Su Ji is an imperial businessman who has brought many benefits to the royal family, and I will not ignore Su Ji."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Shen Baiqing knew that this was already the biggest concession His Majesty could make, and he had to say that His Majesty was still very wise to make such a decision.

His Majesty could see that Shen Baiqing was a smart person, and he was also willing to talk to a smart person, because communicating with a smart person would not waste too much tongue.

"Recently, many excerpts have been reported, most of which mean that the Su family is the only one and does not give others a way to live.

On the contrary, I think that the Su family can be the only one, which means that the Su family has a lot of silver in the treasury, what does Mrs. Hou think? ”

"Your Majesty, the courtiers think that the Su family can dominate because the Su family is willing to hand over sixty percent of the profits to the treasury, and because of the Su family's handover, other merchants only need to hand over one percent of the profits. What does Your Majesty think? ”

I have to say that Shen Baiqing has already given great concessions, if His Majesty feels that the Su family is really doing their best for the court.

Only when His Majesty is satisfied can the Su family gain a foothold in the capital.

His Majesty's deep gaze stayed on Shen Baiqing's body, and Shen Baiqing could feel that His Majesty was testing herself, Shen Baiqing continued.

"Your Majesty, rest assured, the courtiers will definitely arrange everything, no matter what, the Su family will definitely contribute to the treasury."

"Okay, Mrs. Hou is like this, I am very pleased."

His Majesty was very satisfied with what Shen Baiqing said, and by the way, he rewarded Shen Baiqing and his wife with a lot of things, and also promised to reduce Yanzhou's taxes.

After Shen Baiqing came out of the palace, he returned to the Su family.

Soon, His Majesty summoned the officials of the six ministries to carry out what Shen Baiqing said.

Originally, there were still many officials who were quite dissatisfied with the Su family, but they saw that the Su family was willing to take out sixty percent of the profits to fill the treasury, and the Zhongyong Marquis and his wife also paid out of their own pockets to do things for the people of Yanzhou in Yanzhou.

It can be seen that the Su family is really for the country and the people, and those officials who originally had opinions about the Su family are now much more friendly to the Su family.

Sioux House.

Tong Qiurong personally came to Shen Baiqing's courtyard to find Shen Baiqing, and when he saw Tong Qiurong coming to find him, Shen Baiqing smiled lightly.

"Sister-in-law, do you have something to look for me?"

Tong Qiurong's eyes hesitated, Shen Baiqing could see that Tong Qiurong should have something to say to herself, so Shen Baiqing spoke.

"Sister-in-law, tell me if you have anything to say."

"Qing'er, why did you make such a big concession when you went to see Your Majesty today."

Tong Qiurong knew very well that the words that Shen Baiqing and His Majesty said were to a large extent to make the Su family taoguang obscure.

Shen Baiqing knew the meaning of Tong Qiurong's words, and Shen Baiqing said seriously.

"Sister-in-law, if I don't do this, I'm afraid that the Su family and the Tong family will make Your Majesty uneasy.

The Su family and the Tong family work together to deal with the Sun family, this has always been a thorn in His Majesty's heart, and only if we take the initiative to lower our posture can we let Your Majesty take off guard. ”

Shen Baiqing's words made Tong Qiurong's heart warm, and I have to say that Shen Baiqing's consideration of this is really distressing.

"Qing'er ......"

"Sister-in-law, you and I both know that it is not easy to keep Taoguang in this capital, and if our Su family wants to gain a foothold, we always need to make trade-offs."

"Qing'er, I really appreciate everything you have done for the Tong family."

"We are all family, there is no need to be so polite."

"Hmm."

Tong Qiurong chatted with Shen Baiqing for a long time, and Su Boxing's expression was solemn at dinner, and the Wang family and the others were quite uneasy when they saw Su Boxing like this.

At dinner, Su Zhiyuan looked at Su Boxing and took the initiative to ask.

"What did Your Majesty say to you today?"

Hearing this, Su Boxing's expression changed slightly, and he said seriously.

"Your Majesty just told us to do our part, and as for the rest, I won't say more."

Su Boxing's words made Su Zhiyuan frown slightly, and Su Zhiyuan had no words for this.

Everyone knows that the Su family can only do this now, and Su Boxing said again.

"The Sun family is now completely lonely, and the Sun family money village is now defeated, I plan to take advantage of the victory to pursue and take the Sun family money village."

Hearing this, Wang was slightly worried.

"But His Majesty's side wants us to keep our eyes on it, and now if you take the Sun family's money bank, I'm afraid that Your Majesty's side will be dissatisfied."

Wang's words still have some truth, Shen Baiqing said about this.

"I understand what my brother means, of course we can't accept the Sun family money house on the surface, but this does not prevent us from taking the Sun family money house behind our backs."

Shen Baiqing's words made the Wang family dumbfounded, sure enough, don't look at his two sons and daughters-in-law who kept saying that they wanted to let the Su family Taoguang raise their minds, but in fact, they did a lot of things behind their backs, but fortunately, His Majesty didn't know about these things.

On the day Sun Yibai was beheaded, Sun Anhang did not go to see his son beheaded.

The queen mother in the palace kept pleading with His Majesty, even having a miscarriage, and His Majesty also promised the queen to save Sun Yibai.

The queen was thus separated from His Majesty, and His Majesty, thinking of the relationship between husband and wife, did not abolish the identity of the queen, but trapped the queen in the dormitory, and no one could see each other.

Everyone in the capital sighed that His Majesty still had a trace of affection for the queen, but Sun Anhang chose to give up his son in order to keep the Sun family.

Sun Anhang offered to return to his hometown and leave the capital forever, and His Majesty agreed.

On the day Sun Anhang left the capital, Su Zhiyuan personally came to see Sun Anhang, and when he saw Su Zhiyuan, Sun Anhang laughed sarcastically.

"I really didn't expect that now that I have become like this, Su Xiang is willing to give me a ride."

"After all, everyone is a colleague in the capital, since it is a colleague, Brother An Hang wants to return to his hometown, so I naturally want to send one."

"But what happened to you was assassinated......"

"It's just that your son is ignorant."

"That's why I don't have a way to teach my son......"

"Brother Anhang, don't say that, it's easy to go all the way."

Sending Sun Anhang away, Su Boxing accompanied Su Zhiyuan to return home in a carriage.

On the way, Su Boxing could see that his father was complacent, so he said.

"Father, you obviously know that what Sun Yibai did was Sun Anhang's intention, why did you let Sun Anhang leave Beijing?"

Asked by Su Boxing, Su Zhiyuan stared and said seriously.

"Wouldn't it be necessary for Your Majesty to know about it in the capital?

Do you think our Su family can really do whatever they want in the capital? If Sun Anhang had an accident at the city gate, what would be the consequences? ”

His father's words silenced Su Boxing, and he had to say that his father's words were still very reasonable.

In this way, Su Boxing does not say much.

At the same time, Sioux House.

Shen Baiqing was very surprised when she received the letter sent by Su Bowen.

She didn't expect Su Bowen to investigate the matter, and obviously Su Bowen was planning to find a suitable opportunity to do it.
