After Cheng Xiu left Beijing to take office, Su Zhi asked Xiao Chuan'er to send a secret letter, and transferred the slave Gandu Division to command Pang Zuo to enter Beijing quietly.

Xiao Chuan'er asked: "This person has always fallen with the wind, if Your Majesty entrusts him with a heavy responsibility, can he be competent?" ”

"If you don't transfer him out, it will seriously interfere with the implementation of Cheng Xiu's authority."

"Your Majesty is Wise"

Su Zhi glanced at him: "This fart is really tasteless, if you do it again, you will go to guard the tomb of Gaozu." ”

"The minions are gone"

Xiao Chuan'er disappeared as soon as he slipped away, and wiped his sweat after going out.

After sending the secret letter, he came back at the top: "Your Majesty, the Metropolitan Governor inspected the Beijing army and punished General Yang for his lax management of the army, and he is currently transferred out of the Beijing camp and grounded in his home." ”

Su Tong threw the red pen in his hand: "As soon as I arranged a governor of Jiliao, he couldn't hold his breath, this is to control the Beijing soldiers in his hands, go, call Prince Gong." ”

"Your Majesty, is this going to let Prince Gong take charge of the Beijing army?"

"Why, you think he's from that branch too?"

"The slave doesn't know what to say, but he thinks His Majesty still needs to think twice."

Su Zhi snorted coldly: "I don't believe in him much, it's just that he won't stand in those two camps." ”

"The slave understands, so let's go to Prince Xuangong."

Prince Gong couldn't believe that the Seventh Emperor Uncle, whom he admired the most, His Majesty the Emperor now, wanted to summon him.

Immediately changed his clothes, got on his horse and galloped to the gate of the palace.

When he saw Xiao Chuan'er, he asked: "Xiao Chuan'er, what does Your Majesty want to reward this king?" ”

"The slave doesn't know, Your Highness go quickly, Your Majesty is waiting."

When Su Tong explained that Prince Gong would be in charge of the Beijing army, his head shook like a rattle: "No, no, no, no, Your Majesty, the ministers will not lead troops, and they will never lead troops." ”

Su Tong was a little strange, so he asked, "Why?" ”

The nineteen-year-old young prince said very sincerely: "Your Majesty, what do you think, the previous emperor was the eldest brother of the minister, and the last emperor was the father of the minister. ”

Su Zhi nodded: "What you said is very reasonable, but I have thought about it for you." Whenever you encounter any movement from them, you can shift the blame to the Grand Duke. ”

Prince Gong said: "Your Majesty also knows that this is a very difficult errand to do, the military power is in the hands of the Metropolitan Governor, and the Beijing army guards Kyoto, and General Yang can protect His Majesty's safety while in office, but there is also a slight conflict with the forbidden army. Your Majesty will not know that the forbidden army is currently controlled by the Duke of Ning, the three major armies inside and outside the capital, the Qin army of the Metropolitan Governor is the strongest, and General Yang's Beijing army has just returned from His Majesty's campaign against Tatars, which can be said to be His Majesty's pro-army. These three armies are like the three major forces in the DPRK and China at present, and they check and balance each other.

If the minister takes over the Beijing army, he will be suppressed by the governor and Ning Guogong because of his identity, and they may even join forces, so His Majesty will lose this powerful pro-army. ”

Su Tong nodded, and Prince Gong said again: "The minister thinks that at that time, the Metropolitan Governor and Ning Guogong will definitely join forces. ”

Su Tong asked, "Then if I ask you to recommend someone, who will you recommend to lead the Beijing army?" ”

Prince Gong thought for a while and said: "There is no suitable candidate at present, even the prince Zheng Rong, who has been following His Majesty before, is not suitable, first, he has no experience in leading troops, and secondly, he is a member of the Zheng family." ”

"What about Prince Su, do you think it's still suitable?"

Prince Gong immediately said: "Especially not suitable"

"Why?"

"It's inconvenient for the minister to say more, and Your Majesty has already thought about it."

Su Tong smiled, pointed to the chair next to him, and said, "Sit down, if you succeeded your father to the throne of the emperor, I would not have been forced to be the emperor here." ”

"The minister is not much better than the elder brother, but the bystanders are in the mood to think about it."

Su Tong beckoned to him: "Sit down opposite me, give you something to do, don't know what I stole every day." ”

Prince Gong smiled and dragged a chair to sit over, and Su Zhi pushed a dozen pieces in front of him, "You come to help me read the folds, and if you read well, I will reward you with a few good things." ”

Prince Gong reads it, Su Tong listens, and asks for his opinion before giving instructions.

After reading a few books, Prince Gong suggested: "When the excerpts are sent, the cabinet will generally pick and choose what they attach importance to and put on it, and the classification given by His Majesty before is not very clear, so it is better for the ministers to take a moment to classify them first, and then read them in order of priority." ”

Su Zhi approved his suggestion, and he started to classify it seriously. After that, he made his own decisions and asked Xiao Chuan'er to go to the cabinet to transfer all the excerpts today.

The two of them made another careful selection together, and read it to Su Zhi after sorting it again.

Su Tong raised his hand to stop him: "Give me the part that you have divided and think is the most important, and you will come to see it at the next level, write your comments in the booklet, and give them to me to read after a while." ”

After speaking, he glanced at Xiao Chuan'er, thought about it, and suppressed the thoughts that flashed in his heart.

Even if it is Xiao Chuan'er, he can't deal with the twists and turns, this is Su Zhi's rule.

Xiao Chuan'er knew it herself, so she withdrew and came in with refreshments, and then stayed outside the door and didn't come in again.

With Prince Gong, Su Zhi not only reviewed it quickly, but also had fun, and the uncle and nephew often had to discuss it.

This kid can't stop him from getting high, and occasionally he will argue and not let each other go.

After this day's work, Su Zhi got up and said, "Let Xiao Chuan'er find you clothes to change, and Uncle Seventh will take you out of the palace." ”

Prince Gong suddenly became beautiful: "Yipin Pavilion"

"Okay, Ippage."

After leaving the palace, Su Zhi had twenty-four guards, and he didn't even have an entourage on the surface. When Prince Gong saw this, he also sent his own guards away.

Xiao Chuan'er first went to Yipinge to book a private room, ordered the food, and Su Zhi took Prince Gong all the way on foot on the street.

"Uncle, do you want to call the fourth uncle over?"

"Don't scream, you and I will go today."

While the two were talking, a carriage drove by, and the people in the car lifted the curtain and looked over when they heard Su Zhi talking.

Seeing that it was really him, he happily called: "Your Highness, I met here by chance." ”

Prince Gong thought he was calling him, but he was still wondering, muttering, "This woman knows me?" ”

Su Tong also followed the voice, and immediately put his hand on his lips and whispered, "It's not you."

Then he smiled at the people in the car: "Well, by coincidence, my son took his nephew to Yipin Pavilion for dinner, it was getting late, so the girl should return home early." ”

The girl got out of the carriage as she spoke, and said when she got closer: "The maiden is also going to Yipinge, and my brother has always been hungry for the crab roe lion head there, and I promised him before going out today that I would bring it to him when I returned from my grandfather's house." ”

Su Zhi responded politely, and wanted to go around, but then the girl glanced around and said, "Doesn't Your Highness have a carriage?" If you don't dislike it, use the people's girl's car. ”

Prince Gong peeked at Su Zhi, thinking that he might know something, so he quietly took half a step back, but Su Zhi found out and pressed his hand on his waist and pushed the person back.

At the same time, he said: "It's just that I'm tired today and want to walk with my nephew, so the girl gets in the car, and my uncle and nephew will take the first step." ”

"What His Royal Highness said is that the folk girl sat on the ancestral mansion for such a day, and she also wanted to walk and relax her muscles, if His Royal Highness did not dislike it, the folk girl would follow the same road and be brave."

As soon as she said this, Su Zhi walked forward without stopping, and instructed Prince Gong without looking back: "Nephew, you will accompany this girl to Yipin Pavilion together, and the uncle remembered that he had not yet decided on a private room, so he took the first step." ”

Prince Gong watched his unreliable seventh uncle disappear in a flash, and he didn't look back even if he shouted at his throat.
