One hundred and one, conspiracy within a plot
Hearing this, Shi Qian nodded and said, "What the adults said is not bad at all, judging from the current situation, it is better not to inform the nunnery." ”
Shi Heng nodded when he heard the words and said: "This is naturally the case, but judging from the current situation, I am afraid that things are not so simple, from the current situation, the news can no longer be saved, and the paper cannot be kept from the fire after all. ”
Hearing Shi Heng's words, Shi Qian opened his mouth and said: "What Lord Shi said is not bad at all, judging from the current situation, this matter is exactly like this. ”
Shi Heng said: "Since this is the case, it is natural to hide it for as long as possible." ”
"My lord, since the nunnery doesn't know anything about it, it's not difficult to hide it." Shi Qian opened his mouth and said.
Shi Heng nodded and said: "It's easy to hide my nephew's imprisonment from the imperial court from my sister, but from the current point of view, this matter is still a little difficult to handle, after all, from the current situation, such a major event will be known to my sister sooner or later, and I am afraid that it will be difficult to deal with at that time." ”
When Shi Qian heard this, he groaned slightly, and then said to Shi Heng: "The adult's worries are not unreasonable, judging from the current situation, it is only difficult to prevent Sister Ling from knowing about this matter, and now I can only hide this matter for the time being." ”
Shi Heng said: "It is precisely this, now the only way to hide it for the time being, and after a few days, try to clear my nephew's guilt, so that the big thing can be turned into a small matter, and this catastrophe will be as if it had never happened, and only in this way is the way to deal with it." ”
Shi Qian heard Shi Heng's words, so he spoke: "My lord, since he said this, from the current point of view, things are not difficult to do. Why should adults worry? ”
When Shi Heng heard this, he spoke: "This is the case from the current situation, but I don't know how long this matter can be hidden. ”
Hearing Shi Heng's words, Shi Qian opened his mouth and said: "My lord, there is no need to worry about this matter, the officials in the court have been dealt with at the moment, as long as the emperor does not speak, no one will be impeached in the case of Li Kelin, as long as this matter is cold, when the emperor is happy one day in the future, can't the adults ask the emperor for a favor and give this matter to him?" ”
Hearing Shi Qian's suggestion, Shi Heng only sighed: "This matter is by no means so easy, judging from the current situation, this matter seems to be Xu Youzhen's treachery, and he wants to use Li Kelin to fight the old man, not enough from the palace to say that the emperor handed over this matter to Xu Youzhen for disposal, and it seems that he is really angry about the disaster relief in Henan." ”
Hearing this, Shi Qian was a little surprised and said: "Your Majesty, the slave doesn't know about this matter, judging from the current situation, the emperor is quite estranged from the actual situation of disaster relief, it stands to reason that the emperor wants to know about the aftermath of Henan, and he wants to pass Henan's report, why would he suddenly be angry." ”
Hearing this, Shi Heng opened his mouth and said: "This matter is also a long story, I only complain that Li Kelin is too unscrupulous, the old man tried his best to prevent the disaster for him last time, but I didn't expect Li Kelin to be a weapon at all, he forgot the pain after the scar, and he didn't take the past to heart at all, and actually swallowed up a lot of grain and grass allocated by the court at this juncture." ”
When Shi Qian heard this, he understood Shi Heng's intentions, and said secretly in his heart: "No wonder there are so many things done this time, it turns out that it is caused by unclean hands and feet." ”
But he heard Shi Heng gritted his teeth and said: "In addition to Li Kelin's own carelessness, he is also blamed for his bad luck, he met Jian Huaizhen's disaster, and I heard the news in the palace that Jian Huaizhen made it in front of the emperor, if there was no Jian Huaizhen's advice, the matter would not have gotten to the point it is now." ”
When Shi Qian heard this, his heart moved, and he said to Shi Heng: "Lord Shi, I can't afford to offend this Jian Huaizhen, my subordinates heard that this Jian Huaizhen is not only quite powerful in the imperial court, but also has intertwined forces in the rivers and lakes, and many sects obey her orders. ”
Shi Heng nodded and said: "That's not bad at all, the tricky part of the matter lies here, if Jian Huaizhen insists on interfering in this matter, Li Kelin's life will be a little difficult to protect." These days have passed, although Lord Ben has made you contact many officials in the imperial court, but the sum of a hundred officials is afraid that it will not be able to withstand Jian Huaizhen's words. ”
Hearing Shi Heng's words, Shi Qian opened his mouth and said: "My lord, since it is not suitable to fight with Jian Huaizhen, it is better to retreat and get acquainted with her, seek common ground while reserving differences, if there is hope for an alliance with each other in the future, wouldn't it be the best." ”
Shi Qian had this suggestion, but Shi Heng snorted coldly and said, "Even if Lord Ben puts down his body and begs Jian Huaizhen, I'm afraid that this matter will not be done." ”
Hearing Shi Heng's words, Shi Qian felt a little strange, so he opened his mouth to Shi Heng and asked with some doubts: "My lord, why is this?" ”
Shi Heng said suddenly: "This matter is a long story, at the moment, Lord Ben can only tell you that the people of our Shifu are inseparable from the eldest princess Jian Huaizhen, some time ago, Lord Ben and her have formed a great relationship, since then, no matter how Lord Ben shows goodwill, from the current situation, it seems that he cannot seek common ground with Jian Huaizhen." It's really quite fatal to say this. ”
Shi Heng's words were quite frustrated.
"My lord, don't be anxious, although Jian Huaizhen is inserting a foot horizontally, but the matter is still on the emperor, as long as the emperor says a word to release two people, even if Jian Huaizhen wants to stop it, he must take into account the emperor's face." Shi Qian opened his mouth to Shi Heng and proposed an idea.
Hearing Shi Qian's words, Shi Heng was reminded, so he spoke to Shi Qian: "Once the matter is not bad, from the current situation, the emperor is the last decision-maker, as long as he excuses Li Kelin in front of the emperor, there is still hope that this matter will be turned into a small matter in the future." ”
Shi Qian then spoke: "Judging from the current situation, what the adults say is the most reasonable. Since Jian Huaizhen can't go this way, he should take the emperor's road, as long as the emperor agrees, Jian Huaizhen is afraid that he can't object to this matter. ”
Hearing Shi Qian's words, Shi Heng spoke: "This matter is not bad at all, judging from the current situation, it is very important to obtain the emperor's approval, as long as the emperor's approval is obtained, Lin'er's matter will not be so difficult, even Xu Youzhen and Jian Huaizhen have to save face for the emperor." ”
"It's still Lord Shi who thinks that it is thorough and transparent, and the emperor's path is the right one." Shi Qian said to Shi Heng.
"Yes, not bad, you reminded me that the emperor's path is a shortcut to the south, no matter what you do this time, you still have to go through the emperor, it is better to start from the emperor at the beginning, from the current situation, only the emperor has the power to make a final decision." Shi Heng seemed to be talking to Shi Qian, and seemed to be muttering to himself.
When Shi Qian heard this, he said to Shi Heng: "What your lord said is very true, from the current situation, this matter is like this, from the current situation, as long as the emperor can change his mind, do not continue to pursue the Henan disaster relief, and let Li Kelin go, then this matter will have a turnaround." ”
Hearing Shi Qian's words, Shi Heng seemed to be reminded, and said to Shi Qian happily: "What Steward Shi said is not bad at all, so many things have happened in these days, almost making the old man dizzy, from the current situation, this matter is like this, the emperor is a very important person in this matter, as long as the emperor is willing to forgive Lin'er, whether it is Jian Huaizhen or Xu Youzhen, it is okay." ”
"Yes, yes, that's what the master said." Shi Qian opened his mouth and said.
"Well, it seems that when the last resort comes, Lord Ben can only go to the emperor with a shy old face and beg him to open up the net for his nephew Li Kelin." Shi Heng sighed slightly.
"What my lord said is that from the current situation, the emperor is the last way." Shi Qian opened his mouth and agreed.
The two discussed for a while, and then set the charter, and Shi Heng ordered the housekeeper to continue to do the work of the Beijing officials, so that they would not fall into trouble with Li Kelin, who was in trouble.
In addition, Shi Heng was determined to have the opportunity to go to the emperor to present his feelings, hoping that the emperor would give Li Kelin another chance to reform himself.
