Chapter 52: It's better not to get involved
"Is General Su still used to it in the capital?" Zhou Shengchen said in Momo.
"I haven't been back for a long time, and I can't recognize the changes in the capital." Su Chengtuo said with emotion.
"When I have time, this king will ask General Su to go to Qingyin Teahouse, where the tea is superb." Zhou Shengchenmo recommended.
"Really? Then I'm going to try it. Su Chengtuo didn't say that he would go with Zhou Shengchenmo.
"I wonder how long General Su will stay in the capital this time?" Zhou Shengchen Mo began to quote to the topic.
"Alas, I haven't come back for the New Year for many years, and this time I came back before the end of the year, and I will leave after the New Year." Su Chengtuo sighed and said.
Zhou Shengchenmo didn't speak immediately, but took a sip of tea and said with a slight temptation in his tone: "If General Su really wants to be in the capital, this king has a way."
As soon as he heard this, Su Chengtuo became interested and asked curiously, "What method?"
Zhou Shengchen Mo saw that he was going to take the bait, and he was slightly happy in his heart, but he said quietly on his face: "Actually, it's simple, what the emperor is most afraid of now, you can have it."
"What is the emperor most afraid of?" Su Chengtuo pretended to think, and suddenly his eyes lit up and said, "Right."
"Yes, it's right, once General Su has your rights, the emperor has to watch you by his side, and he doesn't dare to take back your rights." Zhou Shengchenmo seduced him step by step.
"No, no, the most taboo in the court is the master of high merit." Su Chengtuo shook his head and disagreed.
Zhou Shengchen was slightly angry in his heart, disgusted that he was so timid, but he still followed the temptation.
Zhou Shengchenmo: Is this trying to win over his uncle? Xu Zhaohua, who had been hiding in the cubicle and eavesdropping, thought. At this time, the power and strength of his uncle are indeed stronger than Xu Qingshan, so it is not surprising that Zhou Shengchenmo did this, but he also has to understand a truth, that is, his uncle is not easy to control, and what Zhou Shengchenmo wants is the kind of person who is firmly controlled in his hands, so Zhou Shengchenmo's purpose is not so simple.
When Xu Zhaohua turned his head to look again, Su Chengtuo had already sent Zhou Shengchenmo away. After she and Su Chengbi walked out, she asked Su Chengtuo: "Uncle, what is the matter with King Li coming to you?"
Su Chengtuo glanced at Su Chengbi, and his face was a little embarrassed.
Su Chengbi knew what Su Chengtuo was hesitating, and opened her mouth to reassure Su Chengtuo: "It's okay, brother, please say it."
Su Chengtuo felt that they would have to know sooner or later, so he said cautiously: "King Li promised me that if you want to stay in the capital, then do as he says, and then he will give me Xu Qingshan's rights." The more he spoke, the quieter he became, and the more he got to the back, he was almost silent.
But Su Chengbi didn't react at all, in Su Chengtuo's cognition, Su Chengbi loved Xu Qingshan, when he heard such news before, he couldn't wait to kneel down and beg him to help Xu Qingshan, but why is he so quiet now? This made Su Chengtuo very surprised.
"Is that really what King Li said?" Xu Zhaohua asked again to confirm.
Su Chengtuo realized that there was Xu Qingshan's daughter here, and such news was not too good for her, but she could only nod when she said it.
Xu Zhaohua felt that something was wrong, for Zhou Shengchenmo, the easiest thing to control should be Xu Qingshan, but he said such a promise to his uncle, I'm afraid things are not so simple.
She said to Su Chengtuo: "Uncle, King Li likes to grasp things in his own hands the most, but uncle, you are not something he can grasp, and he naturally knows this truth, so I am afraid that this matter is fraudulent."
"Uncle knew, so he sent him away."
Xu Zhaohua put his mind at ease for the time being, put this matter aside, and then chatted with his mother and uncle about something unrelated to court politics.
After going back, Xu Zhaohua thought about today's incident. Counting the days, I suddenly remembered what happened in the previous life, at that time, my uncle came back, Zhou Shengchenmo framed my uncle in order to help Xu Qingshan strengthen his power, and his uncle was imprisoned, and the Su family fell into the middle.
Therefore, Zhou Shengchenmo's purpose can be imagined, he does not want to win over his uncle, but wants to make his uncle take it lightly, so as to help Xu Qingshan get the rights of the Su family.
However, it is not so easy for Zhou Shengchenmo to achieve his goal so easily.
As the days passed, Su Chengtuo also reacted that something had happened between Xu Qingshan and Su Chengbi, he had never seen Xu Qingshan at Su Chengbi, but he saw Xu Qingshan in the early dynasty, Xu Qingshan talked to him as if he had nothing to do, trying to draw in his relationship with himself.
However, recently, there have been some unfavorable remarks in the court, although he has not heard it, but seeing the actions of those officials who were originally talking about something automatically dispersed as soon as they saw him, I am afraid that things are not simple.
Sure enough, Su Chengtuo's hunch was right.
The officials mainly Zhou Shengchenmo jointly participated in his book, although he was a little at a loss, but he was not at a loss, after all, he had already thought about it.
Zhou Shengcuobai, who was sitting on the dragon chair, didn't say a word after watching the recital of Zhou Shengchenmo and other ministers, making people unable to figure out what he was thinking, but just glanced at Xiao Dezi lightly, and Xiao Dezi immediately ignored it and said: "If there is something to play, there is nothing to retreat."
Zhou Shengchenmo didn't expect Zhou Shengcuobai to be angry on the spot, but silently suppressed it. This made Zhou Shengchenmo very unhappy, but he was helpless.
After the next dynasty, Su Chengtuo walked alone, and the others were two or three people discussing and walking together. When he was about to go out, the emperor summoned him.
He went to see Zhou Sheng Cuobai with apprehension and surprise.
Zhou Shengcuobai was sitting in the military courtyard of Nuoda at this time, with a stack of folds in front of him, and he was reading quickly and carefully.
"The ministers see the emperor, long live the emperor, long live and go to bed early." Su Chengtuo knelt and bowed.
Zhou Shengcuo didn't raise his head and said, "Get up." ”
After Su Cheng stretched it up, Zhou Shengcuobai threw out a fold, which seemed to be Zhou Shengchen's notebook this morning. Zhou Sheng Cuobai said: "Pick it up and take a good look."
Su Chengtuo picked it up, opened it and looked at the content carefully, the more he looked at it, the more frightened he became, and immediately knelt down and said to Zhou Shengcuobai: "Your Majesty, the minister never did this, you have to believe the minister." ”
Zhou Sheng Cuobai put down the fold in his hand, pointed to the pile next to him and said: "Look at this pile, they are all impeaching you, I am no longer angry in front of everyone, how do you want me to believe you." ”
Su Chengtuo lowered his head and pondered for a while and said, "Please rest assured, the emperor will definitely give the emperor an explanation for this matter." ”
Zhou Sheng Cuobai nodded and said weakly: "Then I will wait for Aiqing's explanation." ”
Su Chengtuo nodded firmly and heavily, and then retreated under Zhou Shengcuobai's signal.
…………
"I didn't expect the emperor to be angry in public." In Zhou Shengchenmo's study, many ministers gathered, and everyone talked about it.
"I'm afraid I don't dare, after all, the emperor has only just ascended the throne, and the Su family's heritage in this capital is still something he can't afford to provoke." An old minister with a gray beard and many years of experience in the DPRK said self-righteously.
"Isn't it?" Another person said teasingly: "I heard that Hu Shilang went to give gifts to General Su in those days but was turned away, so he must be angry now." ”
As soon as these words came out, the face of the Hu Shilang was as colorful as the color palette, and he could only point at the man and say, "Nonsense!" ”
This Hu Shilang is the father of Hu Moqiong, and because of the death of his son, he got his current status.
A few of them laughed secretly. There are a few people who ignore it completely, and no matter how high people like this climb, they will not pay attention to them.
"It's so lively." Zhou Shengchen Mo was late.
Everyone stood up and said, "See King Li." ”
Zhou Shengchenmo noticed Hu Shilang's face while letting them get up, and asked curiously: "What's wrong with Hu Shilang, his face is so bad." ”
Hu Shilang, who was called, didn't dare to say that the colleague was not, so he could only say aggrievedly: "It's okay." ”
Zhou Shengchenmo didn't care either, because his son's death compensated him for this position, and he was already benevolent.
"The ministers have discussed so passionately, what can they say?" Zhou Shengchen sat in the main seat, playing with the gadgets in his hand and said casually.
At this time, everyone looked at each other, and no one answered. After all, the risk of this matter is very high, no one wants to make a bird, and if this matter is done, you can get half of the rights of the Su family, which is undoubtedly a huge temptation for everyone here, but the greater the benefit, the greater the risk, if this matter fails, it will be the loss of their entire family for so many years, under the trade-off between the two, everyone is speechless.
Zhou Shengchenmo was observing everyone's faces, and said secretly: It's all a group of old foxes.
"It seems that the ministers have not made any progress." Zhou Shengchenmo sighed slightly.
This tone sounded a mockery to the arrogant ministers, and subtly felt that they were incompetent and useless. But some of them are a little annoyed by the people who have slowly mixed from a cloth cloth to this status now, after all, they have also done a lot of unsightly things in the past, gambling their lives to achieve today's achievements, at that time they played with power and applause, how happy they were, but now they are timid, and they are ridiculed by this young king, and they are really unwilling.
The military department Shangshu got up and said: "King Li's words are bad, it's not that we haven't made any progress, but the emperor didn't say this matter on the spot when he saw it today, I'm afraid it's not because of jealousy but partiality, so this matter needs to be considered in the long run." ”
Immediately, someone stood up against him: "My lord has been saying from the beginning that he will think about the long term and the long term, but now Zhou Sheng Cuobai has been put on the throne, what's the use?" ”
"Yes, if he had been ruthless from the beginning, His Royal Highness King Li would have already ascended to the throne." One agreed, while others nodded.
The military department Shangshu did not say a word to refute their words, which made the man swell instantly, and continued: "His Royal Highness King Li, the minister thinks that he should do it as soon as possible, even if the emperor favors him, but this matter will always catch him off guard when it comes suddenly, then we should do it when he doesn't react." ”
Originally, Zhou Shengchenmo was thinking about the words of the Ministry of War, and nodded in agreement when he heard him say it.
The military department Shangshu listened to his big argument but only shook his head helplessly, a group of children who had not dried up and had nothing to repay their losses.
"Does the squire have a plan?" Zhou Shengchen asked him.
"It's nature." The Ministry of Labor said confidently.
"Okay, I'll leave this matter to you, let's disperse." Zhou Shengchen waved his hand to send everyone away.
The pace of the Ministry of Works' steps out of the palace was arrogant, and once he completed this, not to mention the Ministry of War, even the Imperial Doctor had to give him three points.
He was proud, and naturally some people were uncomfortable.
"Look at his smug look, my lord, you just indulge him like this?" Someone said to the military department.
The military department Shangshu happened to get into the carriage, glanced at the squire and said indifferently: "The more people want to climb to the sky in one step, the faster they will fall." Then he got into the car and told the coachman to go.
The man nodded in understanding.
"My lord, someone is following." The driver whispered into the car.
The military department Shangshu was closing his eyes and recuperating, and said calmly: "Go to the alley." ”
Although the driver was puzzled, he also obeyed the order and drove the car into an uninhabited alley and stopped.
"Come on, come out." As soon as the words of the military department Shangshu fell, one person walked out.
"Adults are very confident."
Bingbu Shangshu opened his eyes suddenly, he was very surprised, he didn't expect it to be a woman's voice, he got up and got out of the carriage.
The woman in front of her was wearing a white cloak, dressed in blue plain clothes, and was dressed very plainly.
"I don't know who Your Excellency is?" The military department Shangshu said tentatively.
Xu Zhaohua took off his cloak and said, "It's not easy to see an adult. ”
The military department Shangshu looked at her and felt familiar, but he couldn't remember who it was, and asked, "Why did the girl follow me all the time?" ”
"I think the adults just came out of King Li's Mansion." Xu Zhaohua avoided answering his question.
"Not bad." The military department Shangshu generously admitted.
"Huh." Xu Zhaohua chuckled: "I thought that a character like an adult would see some things very clearly, but I didn't expect it to be so." ”
Hearing this, the military department Shangshu said with a cold face: "Why did the girl say this? ”
"I've been following the emperor for so long, but I haven't made any progress." Xu Zhaohua shook his head and said regretfully.
When the soldier heard the woman mention the first emperor, his vigilance suddenly came up, and he said, "Who are you?" ”
"The little girl's name is Xu Zhaohua." Xu Zhaohua reported to his home.
Xu Zhaohua? surnamed Xu, then there is only Xu Qingshan's family. The military department Shangshu thought about it and said disdainfully: "It turned out to be Xu Qingshan's daughter." ”
Xu Zhaohua didn't care about the tone of his voice, but clarified: "He's just my former father." ”
"A former father? Are you the daughter of the Xu family? The military department Shangshu asked uncertainly, he had heard all the facts about the autumn hunting ground.
"Yes." Xu Zhaohua admitted.
Only then did the military department Shangshu face it squarely, after all, in addition to being the daughter of the Xu family, this Xu Zhaohua also had a relationship with the Su family, and the Su family was something he couldn't afford to provoke.
"The girl just said that, but what is her opinion?"
"If you say that the opinions are actually much clearer than mine, but I can't see it clearly because of the little profit in front of me, the little girl just wants to advise the adult, if you don't want to lose your money, don't get involved in this matter."
The military department Shangshu knew what was going on after thinking about it, and said, "Don't worry, girl, Lord Ben didn't plan to participate in the first place." ”
"That'll be fine." Hearing the satisfactory answer, Xu Zhaohua put on his cloak and turned around to leave, but suddenly turned around and said, "If your lord sees this pattern clearly, you can come to me at any time." ”
Then, the military department Shangshu watched her leave.
"My lord, this ......," said the coachman.
"Today's events are rotten in the stomach." The military department Shangshu commanded viciously.
"Yes."
This woman is not only here to listen to his answer, but also to remind him that sure enough, the words of the first emperor are right, this Su family is by no means an ordinary person, whether it is a man or a woman. By the way, how old is your little nephew?
Xu Zhaohua, who had done one thing, was in a good mood, and came to the Qingyin teahouse in Zhou Shengchen's mouth with Youyou.
asked for a pot of good tea, Xu Zhaohua tasted it, Zhou Shengchenmo was true, it was really good tea. But when she saw the next person coming in, she sighed and said, "Tea is good tea, but people are not good people." ”
"Why did Miss say that?" Yoyo asked suspiciously.
Xu Zhaohua motioned for her to look at the door.
Yoyo frowned at a glance, why are they?
The ones who entered the door were Zhou Shengchenmo and Xu Shaoyun, who were looking for seats.
Xu Zhaohua quickly turned her head the moment they saw it, not that she was afraid, but that it would be nothing good when she saw them, she didn't want to let the good mood she had so hard to have just disappear, so she pretended not to know them.
But Xu Shaoyun wouldn't think so, the moment she recognized that it was Xu Zhaohua, she asked Zhou Shengchenmo to look over there and say, "I think the location over there is better." ”
Zhou Shengchenmo didn't recognize Xu Zhaohua at first, he just wanted to please Xu Shaoyun, so he just followed her.
Watching them walk here step by step, Xu Zhaohua knew that it seemed that Xu Shaoyun had not been hit enough, and she never turned her head to look at them.
Until ......, "Excuse me, could I please move your position?" It was Xu Shaoyun's pretentious voice, and she thought she was good.
Xu Zhaohua turned his head and said, "I'm sorry, I can't." ”
At the moment when she turned around, Zhou Shengchen was a little stunned, the woman in front of her was not powdered, and her hair was only half-tied with a simple hairpin, and her clothes were simple and generous, compared with the women around him who were dressed in gorgeous clothes and he was used to seeing them, it was a different kind of beauty.
"Since it doesn't work, then let's go and sit in the private room." Zhou Shengchenmo said to Xu Shaoyun after listening to Xu Zhaohua's words.
Xu Shaoyun will not give up, and said: "Lord Wang, the scenery here is better, and my sister spoils me very much, I will tell my sister about it." ”
Xu Zhaohua listened funny: where did she get the confidence to feel that she spoiled her?
"Sister, sister really likes the seat here, can my sister change with my sister? After all, my sister has let me so many times. ”
A lot of people paid attention to the situation here from the very beginning, so everyone naturally pricked up their ears to listen to their conversation. Xu Shaoyun's words are very ambiguous: she has let it so many times. Some people who do good things not only make up for the backyard struggle in the wealthy family, but also the struggle of a little girl to survive under power, and some people show sympathetic eyes to Xu Shaoyun.
Originally, Xu Zhaohua didn't want to cause trouble, thinking that if she exchanged it with herself, she wouldn't change it at her own expense, but her later sentence made her very uncomfortable. What do you mean she has given up so many times?
"The hairpin on my sister's head looks so good." Xu Zhaohua's eyes lit up when he saw the hairpin on Xu Shaoyun's head, and he suddenly praised Xu Shaoyun's hairpin.
Xu Shaoyun saw that the bull's head she answered was not in the horse's mouth, and her face stiffened and smiled: "Really?" ”
"But it looks familiar." Xu Zhaohua said when Xu Shaoyun didn't react: "No wonder it's so familiar, isn't this my hairpin?" How did it run to my sister's head? ”
As soon as she heard Xu Zhaohua say this, Xu Shaoyun became anxious: "No, this is obviously mine."
"How could it be yours?" Xu Zhaohua frowned, and said in the same tone as her sister teaching her disobedient sister: "This is obviously my sister's, you just wore it, how can you say that it is your own, if you want it, your sister can give it to you."
As soon as everyone heard it, things took a turn for the better again, not the drama of the concubine struggling to survive under the power, but the drama of the little sister bullying her sister at a young age.
Xu Shaoyun was really about to cry now, she grabbed Zhou Shengchenmo's sleeve and said pitifully: "This is really my hairpin, I didn't take my sister's."
"Don't ask what you call it stealing." Xu Zhaohua added slowly.
Xu Shaoyun still looked at Zhou Shengchenmo pitifully, trying to arouse Zhou Shengchenmo's desire to protect, but she hated Xu Zhaohua in her heart.
But compared to her gorgeous clothes, Xu Zhaohua's plain clothes are more like the one who was bullied, which is more likely to arouse the desire to protect.
"You say this hairpin is yours, but what proof do you have?" Zhou Shengchenmo did not favor Xu Shaoyun, but raised an objective question.
Xu Zhaohua saw Xu Shaoyun's pitiful and pitiful appearance, thinking that she had never been like this, and she didn't know how it felt to pretend, so she also had pity in her eyes and seemed to want him to believe in her expectation, and said with confidence: "There is a small seal Wenhua character engraved in the hairpin."
This hairpin is indeed not hers, but she had seen it in a clothing store, and the engraving was very hidden, and she only found it when she was playing with it carefully, but she was sure that Xu Shaoyun did not find it.
Zhou Shengchenmo was confused by Xu Zhaohua's eyes again.
Xu Shaoyun suddenly became scared when she heard this, although she really bought it herself, but if she really guessed correctly, then she was lying.
Xu Zhaohua looked at Xu Shaoyun's panic, and flashed a trace of helplessness: it seems that he is used to grabbing it, and he is afraid that his own things are not his own.
"Take off the hairpin and let the king see if it is there?"
Xu Shaoyun was surprised that Zhou Shengchenmo believed Xu Zhaohua's words, and then reluctantly took off the hairpin and handed it to Zhou Shengchenmo.
Zhou Shengchenmo took it and looked at it for a while, thinking that he was afraid that he was stupid and actually believed this woman's words, and was about to say no, but suddenly found a place, and when he looked closely, it was really a seal Wenhua character.
"Yes, indeed." Zhou Shengchenmo nodded and said.
Xu Shaoyun was incredulous, snatched the hairpin and said, "How is it possible?"
Zhou Shengchenmo immediately frowned when he heard her question, and said, "You don't believe the words of this king, or you don't believe the eyes of this king."
"No, it's not." Xu Shaoyun explained in a panic.
Then she looked at the hairpin herself, and really saw a word in the inconspicuous place, but she didn't recognize the word, and her heart chuckled.
