Chapter 212: Eating melons and watching a play
On the side of Dadu, Mu Chonglan was busy improving the problem of soil, but he was busy eating melons and watching dramas.
Emperor Sheng and his courtiers were still at a stalemate over the disaster relief and whether they should take over the power of troops to suppress the victims, and almost every morning the dynasty had to stage a battle between the monarch and the courtiers.
In her previous life, Mu Chonglan only knew how to chase Xiao Xiantang, and she didn't pay attention to this battle between monarchs and ministers at all, but when she looked at it again, she found that these people were really interesting.
This kind of interesting is not a boast, but a derogatory term that is anxious and angry, because she has bought slaves twice in the past few days, and at this time, there are more than 100 people under her control, including the old and weak women and children, not to mention that the women and children she bought are basically old and weak women and children that no one wants to buy.
Therefore, Mu Chonglan was very anxious about Emperor Sheng's daily battle between monarchs and ministers, hoping that they could finish the fight quickly, at least settle the people first.
In fact, it was Emperor Sheng who was even more anxious than Mu Chonglan, although he believed that the problem with this disaster relief and suppression was his ministers, and he did this only for the sake of greater stability of the country.
However, Emperor Sheng also knew very well that the common people could not understand this struggle between monarchs and ministers, they could only understand their own interests, and when they encountered such natural and man-made disasters, they would only scold him for his inaction as an emperor.
Oh, he wanted to do it, but what the first emperor left him was such a country that he couldn't do.
After ascending the throne for many years, he didn't know how many times he had compromised for the sake of the stability of the army, and this time, he didn't want to compromise again, even if it was a big gamble.
Today, Emperor Sheng took an excerpt and thought about it for a long time, and then threw it to Lao Fushun: "Look at this Mu family." ”
Lao Fushun was puzzled, and he didn't understand why Emperor Sheng was talking about the Mu family, but when he opened the fold tremblingly, he was suddenly shocked into a cold sweat. "This ...... This ......"
"This Mu Jinse is really a bit capable, and even someone in the palace was bought by her." Emperor Sheng said with a smile.
You know, unless this fold is directly handed over in the early dynasty, the others are basically put together, and then handed over after being identified by a special person in the palace, otherwise those courtiers who want to show their faces are not handed up a little trivial?
When Lao Fushun heard Emperor Sheng's words, he was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat, and it was naturally them who were the palace people in the palace to distinguish whether there was any substantive content, and as the head of the inner house, if there were really palace people who were bought by outsiders, he would not be able to escape the blame.
"Holy Lord, the old slave doesn't know why this happened."
"Don't be so nervous, I can't trust others, and I won't trust Fushun." Emperor Sheng frowned.
Lao Fushun didn't relax at all, and the cold sweat on his forehead gathered and dripped down his cheeks to the ground.
"Say, shouldn't I see her?" Emperor Sheng asked.
Lao Fushun shuddered for a moment, and felt that Emperor Sheng was digging a pit for himself, but he had followed Emperor Sheng for so many years, so he naturally understood that Emperor Sheng would ask this, if he was perfunctory, he would never be good, so he said: "The old slave thinks that even if he wants to see it, he can't see it like this, and he needs to investigate it clearly before he can see it or not." ”
"That's what I thought, too." After Emperor Sheng finished speaking, he snorted softly.
It turned out that the fold was handed over by the old man of the Mu family, but what was written on it was not from the old man Mu's handwriting, but from Mu Jinse.
Mu Jinse said that she had a way to solve Emperor Sheng's predicament at this time, and she had a clever plan to force those important ministers to take the initiative to give up their military power, so she hoped that Emperor Sheng would give her another chance to give her a try, regardless of her previous suspicions.
It is undeniable that when Emperor Sheng saw the repossession of military power, he was inevitably a little moved, after all, this was what he longed for the most now.
But at the same time, he also had a sense of crisis, that is, this Mu Jinse is just a woman in the boudoir and has no official position, how did he do this?
"Say, did she do this by herself, or did the Mu family do it?" Emperor Sheng asked again.
The cold sweat on Lao Fushun's head was better than Fang Cai, but he didn't dare to raise his sleeves to wipe it.
He thought, whether this matter was done by Mu Jinse alone, or whether Old Man Mu was also involved, it was really difficult to say.
In his impression, this old man Mu is a military attache who has some intelligence, but he is always just a reckless man, and if he talks about military power in his hands, he also has some power, after all, he was also a dragon protector back then.
It's just that over the years, after all kinds of whale swallowing, his military power has long been limited.
Even, when Emperor Sheng first proposed to collect the right to collect troops, Old Man Mu was the first to jump out to show his loyalty in order to worship the prime minister and make a marquis.
As a result, Emperor Sheng failed that time, so the group of "loyal ministers" led by Old Man Mu were in a very embarrassing situation, only gaining a reputation for loyalty and righteousness, and there were all kinds of marquis that could not be hereditary and only valued themselves, which were useless at all.
This is also the reason why these old ministers have been moving frequently recently, because such a thing as glory and wealth, after enjoying it for a long time, they will naturally be reluctant, or want to leave something for their children and grandchildren.
"The old slave pondered, with the caution of the Mu family for many years, he would not make such a reckless act, and the old slave also heard that the old man of the Mu family had guarded the Mu Jiu girl outside the palace gate before, and wanted to say something to the Mu Jiu girl, so the old slave thought, maybe it was just the seven girls of the Mu family who were upset and afraid that they would fall out of favor, so they would do such things under impulse." Lao Fushun said slowly, while talking, he also pondered, for fear that he would annoy the person above by one word.
When Emperor Sheng heard Lao Fushun's words, he snorted and laughed: "They all say that they are old foxes, and I look at them as well." ”
"Holy ......" Lao Fushun laughed dryly, he said this as if he was shirking for Old Man Mu, but he also said that Mu Jinse was confused for a while, which can be regarded as a double offense.
Although he may not be able to afford to offend the Mu family, he is at this age, and after all, he still adheres to the mentality that more is better than less, thinking that he can enjoy his old age.
Emperor Sheng didn't understand, but he didn't plan to deal with Lao Fushun, because Lao Fushun was indeed older, not to mention, compared to the ambitions of the wolves outside, Lao Fushun was at least more loyal, so he would say these words to Lao Fushun.
"Okay, what, I don't know yet?" Emperor Sheng sneered for a moment, then thought of something again, and asked, "Said he went to find that Mu Jiu?" ”
This he, naturally, refers to Old Man Mu.
"There is such a thing, and I don't shy away from it, and I don't know if I did it on purpose for others to see." Old Fushun pouted as he spoke.
Emperor Sheng's eyes flickered, and he asked, "Then what is Mu Jiu's reaction?" ”
