Because of Shen Chunxi's matter, Su Zhi learned the secret of Jinyiwei.

Su Tan had breakfast with Su Tong and didn't say a word about last night.

According to last night's conjecture, Su Zhi felt that although he knew about this for the first time, the fourth brother should have known about it a long time ago, so he didn't shy away from anything.

"Fourth brother, did you know about the Jinyi Secret Guard before?"

Su Tan glanced up at him and smiled, "You didn't find out until last night, right?" ”

"I only found out last night, does everyone know, but I'm the only one who doesn't know?"

"That's not it, it's just that I don't trust the people around me as much as you, and it's normal to find out."

Speaking of this, he put down his chopsticks, took the handkerchief and wiped his mouth, and then looked at Su Zhi with a smile in his eyes.

Su Zhi looked at his expression and twitched the corners of his mouth: "Just say it, laugh if you want to laugh, don't hold you back." ”

After laughing, Su Tan said: "When I first arrived in Hetao, I didn't find out that there was such a person around me, and later someone around you was exposed and I unintentionally discovered it, but I encountered resistance during the investigation, and I can't check it anymore." At that time, I thought that it might be planted by my father, but they didn't seem to think about anything except monitoring and reporting, so they kept ignoring it. ”

"Why didn't you tell me then?"

"Then you say, if I had told you at that time, would you have carried people and thrown them in front of your father?"

Su Zhi was choked, as if he would really do that, even if he didn't throw it in front of his father, he might reveal the identities of those people.

Su Tan picked up the chopsticks and continued to eat: "Okay, don't think about it, now you should be able to dig out everyone around you." Of course, if I can dig out the side of me, I will be grateful. ”

"One of you is still dead, I watched it last night, and there is no more in your house."

Su Tan raised his eyebrows: "Then Your Majesty does you want to put a few more?" ”

"I'm short of manpower here, so you can arrange this matter yourself."

"There is also a shortage of manpower here, so I can only take on this heavy responsibility myself."

Prince Gong's temporary management of the Beijing soldiers was opposed by the joint efforts of the Duke of Ning Guo and the Metropolitan Governor Qin Yuan, and the opinions of these two people eventually became the one-sided opposition of the Manchu civil and military.

Prince Gong stood there very innocently, of course, he was also very aggrieved, and he didn't want to do it himself, but he ate a meal from Uncle Seven Emperors last night, and he had to pay back the favor he owed, so he was forced to go to the Beijing camp.

"The reason for your opposition is nothing more than that Prince Gong is still young, and he has never held any official position in Beijing, and he has no achievements or merits, is there any other reason why he can get on the table?"

Looking at the courtiers who were kneeling in the black press, Su Zhi sat lazily on the dragon chair and said.

Ning Guogong and Qin Yuan glanced at each other, and after reaching a consensus, Qin Yuan spoke: "Your Majesty, the Beijing soldiers are extraordinary, and they have the important task of defending Kyoto, and they have always been experienced veterans. Moreover, His Majesty said bluntly that Prince Gong is a member of the East Palace, and it is difficult for him to defend the Kyoto ministers. Moreover, there is no precedent in the history of the prince in charge of the Beijing army, which shows that this practice is not feasible. ”

"Speaking of which, you mean that you are afraid that he will rebel and turn around and lead the Beijing army to kill me, is that what you mean?"

The court was unusually quiet, and this was obviously a sign that they meant it.

Su Zhi smiled, and his eyes fell on Ning Guogong's face: "Ning Guogong, I withdrew the 300,000 forbidden army commander Zhou Jialiang today, and transferred my personal guard commander Ge Lin to the commander of the forbidden army, Aiqing will not object?" ”

One is the Beijing army that has not yet arrived, and the two major forces are contending, and the other is the 300,000 forbidden army in the hands of Ning Guogong, which can be imagined, for Qin Yuan, who had previously closed the command of the Beijing army and made General Yang, take the lead, and he will naturally not oppose it in order to weaken Ning Guogong's power.

Ning Guogong's opposition at this time would be too obvious, and he also knew that Qin Yuan would not unite with him again, so he asked, "I don't know where Your Majesty will transfer Zhou Jialiang?" ”

Su Tong thought for a while, glanced at Prince Gong, and said very regretfully: "I want Prince Gong to be in charge of the Beijing army, you are afraid that he will kill me, then Zhou Jialiang will be transferred to be in charge of the Beijing army, and Ge Lin will take over the forbidden army." Come to think of it, I just want to put my own people in the forbidden army, and this is also a major matter to ensure my safety, should you object? ”

When it comes to this, whoever opposes it again will have an antipathy, and Ning Guogong can only take the lead in expressing his position, so Ge Lin became the commander of the forbidden army.

After leaving the court, Prince Gong came to the south study aggrievedly: "Your Majesty, I have long known that the minister cannot be in charge of the Beijing army, and the target this time is not the Beijing army, but the forbidden army." ”

Su Tong laughed and glanced at Xiao Chuan'er.

Xiao Chuan'er came back not long after going out, followed by a few little eunuchs carrying a few large wooden boxes.

Su Tong asked, "Boy, tell Uncle Seven, why did you collect Uncle Seven's things, and where did you put them after collecting them?" ”

"My nephews have all put it away, and they have never taken it out to show off, and it can be seen that Uncle Seven has many habits, and it will be inappropriate if they are understood by others."

"Don't do such a thing in the future, Uncle Seven is not afraid of being known to you about many habits, but I just feel as if you are staring at it regardless of whether you eat or sleep, and it is very awkward. Besides, many people know about your problem, and it will hurt you if someone with a heart comes up with it in the future. ”

"My nephew understands, and I'll return the things when I go home today."

Su Zhi smiled and nodded: "You will return all the ones you stole by yourself, and you have to return them on the road, and the ones rewarded by the seventh uncle will be kept." ”

As he spoke, he pointed to the wooden boxes and said, "Many of those were brought by the seventh uncle when he led the troops, and some were confiscated, and there was a box of books that he read when he was in the palace, and there were also books that your imperial grandfather had rewarded, and the seventh uncle had cherished them very much, and now they have all rewarded you." ”

At this time, Prince Gong's grievances suddenly disappeared, and he thanked him repeatedly, and then opened the box and looked at his treasure carefully.

"Let Xiao Chuan'er send someone to your house for these things, and if you want anything in the future, you can ask for it directly, don't take it yourself."

"My nephew knows, if Uncle Seventh has nothing else to do, my nephew will go home with the person who delivered the things."

"Don't worry, in the future, you will go to the south study every day, and I will arrange a teacher for you."

"Your Majesty, why did the minister enter the palace to study?"

"Otherwise, you always learn by yourself according to your preferences, or arrange a few good gentlemen to teach you."

"Kechen doesn't want to learn, and he doesn't want to go to court."

Su Tong's face turned cold: "Do you just want to be naughty all the time and be an idle prince forever?" But do you know how sensitive your identity is, because your eldest brother can't take on the big responsibility, and as a result, I was forced to sit on the throne. You should know my situation, the current situation in this dichotomy seems to have changed on the surface, but who knows how deeply rooted they are inside.

Even if I hadn't used you to take back the Forbidden Army today, they wouldn't have let you go. Do you still think that anyone wants to be an idle prince who doesn't want to be in power and has been naughty? ”

Prince Gong's face faded away with grievances and inexplicability, and said with a wry smile: "The minister knows, but what can it be, the military power is in the hands of the governor, and most of the power is in the hands of Ning Guogong. In fact, even if the imperial brother has been a minister, he may not be able to die well, he has not been transparent since he was a child, and he is too cowardly, and everything is decided by the queen mother for him.

When his father was in power, he once said that if it weren't for the rules set by the emperor's grandfather, he would establish a successor, and he didn't want the emperor's brother to be the prince. But the main palace is just my two brothers, which will naturally make the imperial brother quite jealous of the ministers. The ministers learned from the Seven Emperor Uncles back then, excluding the battle with the troops, and there was only one left to be stubborn in the capital. ”

Su Zhi pointed his hands inward at himself: "But do you think this naughty music is useful?" Look at me now. ”

Prince Gong stood for a long time, and finally knelt down to thank him.
