Chapter 201: Different Dreams in the Same Bed
Chapter 201
The dancers were tired and half dead, and Song Nan's move happened to relieve the siege, so they gasped and retreated one by one; Zhengde asked Song Nan to sit down and eat together, Song Nan was not polite, pulled a futon to sit down, took a snack and ate it, but Liu Jin did not have this treatment, and stood aside quite envious.
Song Nan swallowed a meat floss shortbread and asked, "Did you hear that the emperor really plans to build a leopard house on this island?" ”
Zhengde said: "Yes, the silver in the inner carrier warehouse has also been recovered, why not build it?" ”
Song Nan glanced at Liu Jin, and Liu Jin smiled and said, "Lord Song doesn't have to look at me, our family just proposed it, and the emperor agreed." ”
Song Nan smiled and said: "Gonggong Liu, I want one more mouth, this time we luckily blocked the mouths of the civil officials of the outer court, if we really build a leopard house, I am afraid that the ministers will talk about it again, why bother?" ”
Liu Jin sneered: "Afraid that they won't succeed? The emperor is the lord of all the people in the world, and he still looks at their faces when he builds a leopard house? ”
Song Nan shook his head and said: "You can't say that, it's true that the emperor is the lord of all peoples, but maybe taking into account the feelings of the ministers, stability comes first, so why bother to make it out of control." We can't be temporary, although the ministers do manage a little too much, but they are also important ministers of my court, and they are also loyal to the emperor and the Ming Dynasty, and they are not enemies. ”
Liu Jin said with a smile: "Lord Song is left and right, but you didn't see Li Dongyang Xie Qian Hanwen and their arrogance that day, I can't wait for the emperor to kill me, if it weren't for the emperor's wisdom and martial arts to deter them, I'm afraid our family wouldn't have had the opportunity to stand here and talk to you." ”
Zhengde frowned and said: "Liu Jin, what you said has happened, although they are sometimes confused, but Song Nan is right, they are all courtiers loyal to me, and your impeachment is also the right thing and not the right person, if you decide to take revenge with personal grudges, I will not allow it." This matter may need to be considered for a while, but I'll talk about it after I think about it. ”
Liu Jin rolled his eyes and didn't make a sound, looking at Song Nan with some annoyance, Song Nan secretly sighed, Liu Jin regarded his kindness as a donkey's liver and lungs; The atmosphere was a little silent for a while, and Zhengde was also a little unhappy when he mentioned the affairs of the court, and after eating something, he ordered people to sit around the tent and sit on soft chairs to rest.
Liu Jin quietly pulled Song Nan outside the corridor and blamed: "Why are you talking to me the opposite?" The emperor is looking forward to the construction of this leopard house, but you are here to stop it. ”
Song Nan frowned and said: "Father-in-law Liu, I am indeed thinking about you, the outer court is deflated and can't find a chance to vent, why bother to make trouble at this juncture?" ”
Liu Jin said: "I'm not afraid of them, I will do whatever the emperor likes, and it is not their turn to interfere in the affairs of the inner court." Song Nan, don't worry about it, our family knows this matter. ”
Song Nan was speechless, he had already done what he had to do, Liu Jin had to find trouble and die, and he couldn't control it.
Liu Jin knew that his words were a little heavy, so he changed the topic and said, "Are you still satisfied with those things?" ”
Song Nan smiled and said: "Father-in-law Liu is too polite, I can't afford such a valuable gift, I was still looking for you to talk about it, I brought something, I can't ask for it." ”
Liu Jin said with a smile: "Our family knows your thoughts, but don't worry, the emperor knows the truth about this matter, and our family is about to remind you of your gratitude; What the emperor rewarded you, are you afraid of a ball? We're just saying a few nice words for you on the side, so let's take it steadily, it's okay. ”
Song Nan put down a big stone in his heart, how much courage it takes to really refuse the mansion and acres worth hundreds of thousands of acres, the emperor knows that this matter is very different, and the account after the autumn will not be counted on my head, but there is no need to ask Zhengde seriously if there is such a thing, and I will test it later by thanking him.
"Thank you Gonggong Liu, although it is a reward from the emperor, but I know that Gonggong Liu has a heart."
Liu Jin said with a smile: "Why should my brother be polite, if it weren't for your clever plan, I would have planted it that day, you were still injured, and there were brothers under your hands who died, I didn't say it, I will find a way for you to pay for the compensity, in short, I can't teach you to suffer." ”
Song Nan waved his hand and said: "Don't dare, I have also been promoted to the official in this matter, it is already very rewarding, the matter of the pension is solved by itself in the Jinyi Wei Yamen, Father-in-law Liu does not have to worry about it, the most important thing is that Father-in-law Liu can be in charge of the inner court, this is a great joy, here is two thousand taels of silver, and there is nothing big to make a big move in the small family, congratulations to Father-in-law Liu on his promotion to the helm of the inner court, congratulations." ”
Liu Jin smiled and said, "If I don't accept you, I will say that I look down on you, just thank you, I will accept it; But I'm not at the helm of the inner court, I'm just a little eunuch who is a celebrant and a celebrant eunuch. ”
Song Nan smiled: "Do you treat me as a blind man?" ”
Liu Jin trembled with laughter and said, "How can you be blind, you are simply looking at a torch." ”
The two walked slowly along the stone road on the edge of the island, Song Nan had been trying to test whether Liu Jin's thing about Shi Wenyi was true, but he was afraid of arousing Liu Jin's suspicions, and when he was thinking about how to cut in, Liu Jin took the initiative to mention it.
"Song Nan, there is something I want you to be mentally prepared for."
"Oh? Father-in-law Liu, please speak. ”
Liu Jin thought for a while and said, "How is Mu Bin treating you now?" ”
Song Nan said honestly: "After the last incident, he was much colder to me, maybe he blamed me for not telling him the truth, and took Jinyiwei to act privately." ”
Liu Jin said: "This Mu Bin is a little ignorant of current affairs, let me tell you the truth, the emperor originally wanted to directly mention you as the Beizhen Fusi Zhenfu, but it was indeed I who blocked it, because I saw Mu Bin's thoughts, and I was afraid that he would be unfavorable to you; As far as I know, Sun Xuan and Mu Bin have a very close relationship, and I am afraid that it will stimulate Mu Bin, so I suggest taking the deputy position first. ”
Song Nan said with a smile: "It's very good, my talent is enough to serve as an important position in the Department of Pacification, even if I am given a pacification, I will refuse, Father-in-law Liu can be regarded as dedicated to me." ”
Liu Jin said: "I'm not hypocritical, you and I can be regarded as friends, I naturally hope that you can be promoted faster, just like the original agreement, our family is in the inner court, you are in Jinyiwei, and the factory and Wei are controlled by us, so we will have a solid life." If the old guys in the outer court provoke trouble, the factory guards will check them together, and if they don't believe that they have nothing to do with it, they will not have it, and they will also fabricate it for them. But this matter cannot be rushed. ”
Song Nan nodded and said, "I understand, Gonggong Liu doesn't have to worry about my emotions, I really don't have the ability to control the Jinyi Guard Yamen." ”
Liu Jin said: "It is naturally difficult at present, Mu Bin is deeply rooted in Jinyiwei, and the main yamen are his people, even if you are a commander, you can't do anything; So take it one step at a time, slowly hollow out his corners, and finally knock him down, and then your life will come to an end. ”
Song Nan said: "Gonggong Liu is thinking about it, but it seems to be a little difficult to do?" ”
"It's hard to say it's hard to do, it's not difficult to say it's not difficult, it's not the same as in the past, we can be regarded as a fight to become famous, some people don't have to dig deliberately, they will naturally turn upside down, how specifically, I don't need to go into details, in short, how can I Liu Jin be Wuxia Ameng back then, I won't be so stupid as Wang Yue Fan Heng, the power of the inner court is in hand but I don't know how to use it."
Liu Jin's face was calm, but his eyes shot an eager light, and he was like Liu Jin, who was humble before; There is no need for Liu Jinming to say, Song Nan also knows that the matter of Dao Shi Wenyi is true, when all parties are reshuffling, nothing is an accident, Song Nan feels that his brain is very messy, he needs to calm down and think well.
On the way back to the palace, Zhengde proved that Liu Jin's words were not lying, and it was indeed he who agreed to give Song Nan's mansion and acres of land, but Zhengde also knew that these things could not be made public, so there was no fanfare. For Zhengde, the reward to Song Nan was sincere, Song Nan's strategy made him show his face in front of the ministers, every time he thought of the expressions of the hundreds of officials in the palace that day, Zhengde wanted to laugh; For Song Nan, Zhengde has a sense of closeness from the bottom of his heart, which even Liu Jin sighs to himself.
Back in the house, Song Nan ordered not to be disturbed, and hid alone on the grass in the bamboo forest in the backyard and lay down, biting the grass stalks and quietly looking at the blue sky and white clouds in the sky to think carefully. The current situation is a bit chaotic, after the inner court is mastered by Liu Jin, it is obvious that Liu Jin will not give up, he wants to learn the lesson of Wang Yue Fan Heng being easily knocked down, and he wants to control Jinyiwei in his hands, but he is actually considered by Liu Jin to be a chess piece in his hand.
Song Nan didn't feel anything wrong, Liu Jin regarded himself as a chess piece, why didn't he also use him as a helper, it was a relationship of mutual use; But Song Nan warned himself that it is feasible to take advantage of the power of the emperor, but in the final analysis, it is to take advantage of the power of the emperor, all of Liu Jin's power comes from the emperor, no matter how he jumps, the emperor will wilt immediately as soon as he says 'Sidaopu'. Therefore, he must keep his distance from Liu Jin, if Liu Jin has any bad thoughts about himself one day, he can also restrain Liu Jin's back hand, and he must not let Liu Jin lead his nose.
At present, he is just a small minion, it seems that he is proud of the spring breeze, but in fact, he has no foundation at all, Xun Qi has the army in hand, Wenchen has the financial and political power of the imperial court in hand, Liu Jin has the inner court in hand, Dongchang, and the three thousand battalions are his hard power, and he is still an excluded character in the Jinyi Guard, so he will not be blindly optimistic when he sees the reality.
According to Liu Jin's urine nature, since he has already started with Jinyiwei, it is also possible to develop eyeliner in the outer court, and the civil officials are not necessarily monolithic, Song Nan is looking forward to what will happen next. The civil officials are all stubborn and stubborn people, if Liu Jin is too popular, the conflict between the two sides will be on the verge of breaking out, if it is then, it will be a battle in which Mars hits the earth, Song Nan is a little gloating and wants to know what the final game between the inner and outer courts of the Dao will be.
Song Nan was thinking to himself dizzy, and suddenly a loud 'bang' came, which frightened Song Nan and jumped up and ran to the inner house.
Lu Qingli's shout came from the courtyard of the west wing: "Success, success, yes!" ”
