Chapter 484: Calculation
Sun Bingzhi, who greeted his father, explained with a smile: "Lord Zhou, forgive me, my father is old, and he is already tired after this day's government affairs, so he went to freshen up and change his clothes first, and he turned around in a moment, and asked Lord Zhou to wait a while." ”
I only felt that my face was about to be swollen by Sun Changyu and Sun Bingzhi, father and son.
He came to the door as an in-law, but others entertained him with the same courtesy as his subordinates, which was really excessive.
But even if he was angry and aggrieved in his heart, he could only endure it around him, and he had to force a laugh and say to Sun Bingzhi: "Lord Shoufu is the important weapon of the country, and he has all the opportunities, which is admirable." I'll wait a moment. ”
Sun Bingzhi thought about it, and responded with a pleasant face, "Greeting is not thoughtful, thank you for understanding", then sat down next to him, gossiping with the surroundings.
Since the surrounding person is willing to come to the door to explain in person, he has already realized his mistake, so why should he hold on to it anymore? After all, his daughter has married into the Zhou family, even if it is for the sake of his daughter's comfort in her in-law's family, he can't offend the uncle and patriarch around him.
Seeing this, I felt a little better in my heart.
Sun Changyu is just that, in terms of official positions, the first assistant of the cabinet does not know how many times more angry than him, Jingzhao Yin; Speaking of seniority, he is also Sun Changyu's junior, and he has nothing to be idle.
If Sun Bingzhi is still arrogant, then he will have to reconsider the relationship between the Zhou family and the Sun family. Although the Zhou family is not a top family, it is also a scholarly family for generations, an official eunuch for generations, and has its own dignity, how can it be allowed to be humiliated by others again and again?
Sun Bingzhi saw that the expressions around him were slightly relieved, and he also secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
One sings with a red face and the other with a white face, so that these people who cling to the Sun family can be both awe and loyal.
The two of them talked for a while, and Sun Changyu and Shi Shiran walked in.
Sun Bingzhi accompanied him and talked for a while, and most of the resentment in the surrounding stomachs had disappeared at this time, and when he saw Sun Changyu coming in, he got up and smiled and bowed.
Sun Changyu didn't shake the cold face around him, smiled indifferently, nodded and chatted in response, raised his hand and said, "Sit down." ”
The three of them were seated separately.
Without waiting for Sun Changyu to ask, he calmly stated the reason for the matter, and finally asked tentatively: "...... I don't know what Lord Shoufu thinks is how credible is Han Taifu's divination? ”
Since Sun Changyu specially came to the surroundings for questioning, it was obvious that he had already found out the ins and outs of the matter, so the surroundings did not intend to hide it cleverly.
Besides, the Zhou family has now been tied to the Sun family on a warship through in-laws, and the two sides want to work together, and being honest with each other is the first priority.
Sun Changyu was very satisfied with the attitude of the surroundings, and his expression was a lot soothed because of this, and he didn't rush to answer when he heard the words, but kicked the question back: "Then do you think Han Yan's hexagram is somewhat credible?" ”
With that, Twist must wait for the explanation around him.
The surroundings did not shirk it, and when they heard this, they told each other frankly: "The lower official specially consulted Qin Tianjian on this matter, and the Wang Eunuch thought that it was six or seven points credible. He also made a special visit to the farmers in Gyeonggi and learned that according to the weather conditions this year, regardless of whether it is a bad year or not, the harvest will definitely not be as good as last year......
All in all, Han Yan's words were not alarmist.
Sun Changyu pondered for a moment when he heard this, and said, "So you have only recently suddenly stepped up to take care of the regular closing of positions, just in case of emergency?" ”
"Exactly." The surroundings calmly told each other, "Although the political views of Taifu Han and Lord Shoufu are not harmonious, and the Zhou family is definitely not the person at both ends of the first rat, but the capital is the important place of the country under the feet of the Son of Heaven, and there is absolutely no room for loss, and the more than one million people in the capital cannot just leave it alone." Therefore, the lower officials acted in advance, so as not to be caught off guard and mislead the country and the people. ”
The words around him were righteous and impassioned, but everyone here understood that a large part of the reason why the surroundings worked so hard to prepare for famine was that they were afraid that if the hexagram came true at that time, they would not respond well in a hurry, and the black gauze hat on his head, and even the head on the neck, would be difficult to preserve.
This is also where Sun Changyu's worries lie - the world is peaceful, so that he can be his first assistant in peace and stability, and make proper arrangements for future generations.
After pondering for a moment, Sun Changyu slowly spoke: "Lord Zhou is dedicated to the country and the people, and this official naturally cannot be left behind. Since the hexagram shows that there will be famine in many places in my Great Zhou, then we should prepare everything we should prepare, rather than just paying attention to the capital. ”
The surroundings were stunned for a while, and they didn't react for a while.
Sun Changyu specially came to him this time, didn't Xingshi ask for sin? How could he not only stop blaming him for his "first rat at both ends", but also vigorously support Han Yan and step up the management of the standing positions in various places to deal with the famine that may come in the near future?
Sun Changyu looked around at a loss, his eyes flashed, and he muttered: "However, this matter is huge and takes a lot of work, just you and me, it must be difficult to complete." The Han family, as the saint's maternal ancestor, and Han Yan, as one of the auxiliary ministers appointed by the first emperor, how could he not contribute to this? ”
The surroundings were stunned for a moment, and suddenly understood that Sun Changyu was taking the opportunity to weaken the strength of the Han family!
High!
It's really high!
"What Shousuke-sama said is very true. Early tomorrow morning, the lower officials will make a decision on the saint. "The surroundings took advantage of the situation to pull the Han family into the water.
The key is that if he doesn't take the initiative to take the work, there is no way, since Sun Changyu specially asked him for questioning, he obviously had already made up the idea of pushing him to take the lead. Since he can't shirk it, it is better to take the initiative to ask for help, so as to take this opportunity to show loyalty in front of Sun Changyu and reassure the other party.
Sure enough, when Sun Changyu heard this, he immediately showed a satisfied smile of "the child can be taught", and said awe-inspiringly: "In this way, I will favor you." In case the hexagram comes true in the future, the people of the world will be grateful for your great kindness and virtue! ”
The surroundings hurriedly got up and bowed their hands and excused themselves: "The lower officials don't dare, it's all thanks to Lord Shoufu's strategizing and commanding!" ”
He thinks that he is not as good as Han Yan, and the Zhou family is far inferior to the Han family, so he doesn't dare to compete with Sun Changyu for this first credit.
Sun Changyu nodded with satisfaction, pretended to be polite, and then revealed the matter without mentioning it, and accepted the humility of the surrounding people.
The two discussed the next matter again, and were busy until Mrs. Sun sent someone to urge good night, and then stopped.
Seeing this, the surroundings got up and took their leave.
Sun Changyu and Sun Bingzhi naturally spoke up.
Why are they all in-laws, and now they are cooperating closely, how can they get a meal but not keep it?
The surroundings resolutely said goodbye: "Thank you, Lord Shoufu, for keeping the meal." It's just that tomorrow morning's recital, the lower officials have to think about it carefully, prepare it in advance, and don't stay to bother. ”
Sun Changyu nodded and responded gently: "This matter should not be delayed any longer, then I won't keep you more." Thank you for your hard work. ”
The words are cordial, which can be regarded as a bit of receiving in-laws.
The surroundings then bowed and said goodbye.
Sun Bingzhi stood up to send him off.
As soon as he walked to the door, he heard Sun Changyu behind him suddenly speak: "By the way, although Zhuang Han, the old fox, has always been neutral and impartial in the court, and the Zhuang family and the Han family do not have too deep contacts, but Zhuang Xian's kid and Han Yan have a deep friendship, and the Wang Ji caravan has the cooperation of the two of them behind it."
"You've got to be careful."
