Chapter 216: Lack of Virtue, Lack of Virtue
An emperor like Jiajing, Xu Qian didn't even have to guess to know what this guy was doing.
Please go with him to see the Empress Dowager Zhang, obviously to pull himself into the water to ease the relationship with the Empress Dowager Zhang.
Xu Qian had to nod, he didn't know what the Empress Dowager Zhang had done recently, but he obviously felt that Jiajing suddenly realized that the Empress Dowager Zhang was a figure that could be fought for, although Jiajing was ruthless, but he also cared about reputation, and he could have a good relationship with the Empress Dowager Zhang, not only could he gain a firm foothold, but also avoid a lot of gossip.
It can be said that it is very important to fight for the Empress Dowager Zhang, although at the noon gate, the Empress Dowager Zhang has already thrown an olive branch to the Zhang brothers, but Jiajing still has doubts about the Empress Dowager Zhang, and even a little disbelief, so this time he pulled Xu Qian, hoping that Xu Qian could live up to the trust and get things done.
Xu Qian did not refuse, worrying about the monarch was taught by the sage, of course, the sage has little to do with Xu Qian, the most important thing is to hold on to Jiajing's thigh, seeing that this emperor is Xu Qian's biggest potential stock, and when it is his turn to say anything in the future, the Xu family will really sprout.
Jiajing walked out of the Dongnuan Pavilion, and did not take a step, but led Xu Qian on foot, Xu Qian didn't dare to stand side by side with him, feeling that it was taboo like this, but Jiajing saw that his pace was half a beat slower, so he also slowed down and walked side by side with him, he couldn't help but say: "What, are you afraid of me?" ”
Xu Qian smiled bitterly and said: "Your Majesty is not terrible, the student is just afraid of the Son of Heaven." ”
This answer is very interesting, which means that I am not afraid of you, but I am afraid of your honorific title, which not only shows respect, but also does it make Jiajing feel that he is deliberately alienated.
Jiajing was silent for a moment, chewed Xu Qian's words, and couldn't help but smile bitterly and shake his head. Said: "You answered very well, then I tell you that I am not the Son of Heaven now." ”
Xu Qian couldn't help but ask: "Your Majesty is not the Son of Heaven, that is also for a while, Your Majesty is still the Son of Heaven after all." ”
The subtext is, you can lower your body today, and you don't blame me, but tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, when you think about it. Ha...... It turned out that the guy surnamed Xu dared to walk side by side with me, maybe he would retaliate.
Jiajing narrowed his eyes, couldn't help laughing, and said, "Then how can you trust me." ”
Xu Qian hesitated for a moment and said, "The student doesn't dare to say it." ”
Jiajing looked at him coldly: "You have done even the most daring thing." Is there anything else in this world that you dare not say? Don't play tricks in front of me, you can say it. ”
Xu Qian said very seriously: "Actually, it's better to swear a poisonous oath, the buttocks are sore, and the most reliable is if you lift but not hard, hard but not hard, hard and not soon." ”
Jiajing's face turned green in an instant, and this guy still looked cautious, and if he gave him three points of color, he opened a dyeing workshop, and he really dared to say anything.
Xu Qian grinned. Said: "Your Majesty forgives the sin, the student is just joking, just joking." ”
Jiajing said with a tiger face: "My joke is so good? I just said, "You are so bold." Now I am unfortunately recognizable, hey...... I am the Son of Heaven, how can I learn from you what poisonous oath you made, you ...... thing"
Xu Qian couldn't help but smile. said: "It seems that the student really did not guess wrong, the Son of Heaven is the Son of Heaven." His Majesty also said that now His Majesty is not the Son of Heaven, what is it now, the next sentence is the Son of Heaven. ”
Jiajing thought about it carefully, and he really fell for Xu Qian, he couldn't help shaking his head, and said with a straight face: "Don't talk nonsense." Then he felt that this was a little heavier, and added: "This time I went to see the Empress Dowager Zhang, you should know what I mean." ”
Xu Qian nodded.
Jiajing sighed and said: "Empress Dowager Zhang is very thoughtful, even I can't see through her, what about you, don't underestimate her, I'll show me later, what kind of idea she has." Also, you don't have to be afraid of me, I am now with you in weal and woe, how can I harm you? If you really don't believe it......" Jiajing was silent for a moment, as if he was considering something, and then made up his mind and said, "I'd rather make a poisonous oath." ”
Xu Qian was speechless and said: "Your Majesty wants to swear poison, you don't need to raise it if it is not strong, it is not hard but not hard, just have a mouth and tongue sore." ”
The expression on Jiajing's face can be imagined, he gets along with people, he has the upper hand everywhere, his voice is powerful, and he has a wisdom bead in his hand, but he has no way to meet Xu Qian, a bold and tongue-like demon. He looked into the distance, his eyes passed through the temple, and said slowly: "I have no friends since I was a child, some are just slaves and subordinates, I have always regarded you as a confidant, even if you swear a poisonous oath, what does it matter?" ”
Xu Qian couldn't help but be a little moved, but he was also suspicious in his heart, how could Jiajing's character say such a thing? Most of his words are true and false, and five of them do express a certain desire in his heart, with a trace of sincerity, but the other fifty percent may not be his means of enveloping, and the emotions are mixed with the emperor's mental tricks, showing the signs of pulling people on the thief ship.
Xu Qian smiled and said, "How dare the student." ”
Speaking kung fu, it has arrived at the Cining North Palace, there have already been eunuchs to report, Empress Dowager Zhang seems to have been prepared for the arrival of His Majesty's holy car, at this time Feng Xia Ji clothes are newly dressed, dignified.
After Jiajing entered the palace, he greeted the Empress Dowager Zhang, and the Empress Dowager Zhang said with a smile: "The previous one also said to His Majesty that His Majesty's state affairs are important, and the mourning family is here, so you don't have to come so diligently. ”
Jiajing hurriedly said: "The dynasty rules the world with filial piety, and I am the son of heaven, how can I not set an example?" ”
Xu Qian was listening and felt that Jiajing was a pun, on the one hand, he was polite to the Empress Dowager Zhang, and on the other hand, he did not mean to speak for his dead father.
Empress Dowager Zhang thought about it and heard the implication, but she pretended not to understand, and said plainly: "It's rare that you have this thought, but for your filial piety, it has delayed national events, but it may not be worth it." ”
Jiajing's face suddenly looked a little displeased.
Xu Qian understood that although Empress Dowager Zhang flattered Jiajing everywhere, she would never give in on the issue of great gifts, but it seems understandable if you think about it, if King Xingxian is promoted to emperor, what should happen to her husband and son's status? Is this former emperor the king of Xingxian, or the emperor of Xiaozong?
On the surface, this is just a matter of title, but it involves the core interests of the Empress Dowager Zhang, although the Empress Dowager Zhang has no quarrel with the world, and even has the suspicion of currying favor with Jiajing in other places, but this matter has a particularly firm position.
Seeing that Jiajing was angry, Xu Qian smiled and said: "State affairs are public, filial piety is private, public intentions naturally cannot be ignored, but private feelings must also be taken into account." Students think that it is appropriate for His Majesty to be filial, but it is also necessary to have both family and national affairs. What the Queen Mother said made sense, and what Her Majesty said also made sense. ”
Jiajing couldn't help glaring at him, obviously he invited Xu Qian to be an accomplice, who knew that this guy actually came to make peace with the mud.
Empress Dowager Zhang's gaze fell lazily on Xu Qian's body, and she smiled slightly: "Is it Xu Jieyuan?" The mourning family and you have met again, and sometimes I haven't seen you, but Xu Jieyuan's speech is more beautiful. ”
Xu Qian hurriedly said: "How dare you, how dare you, Niangniang praises falsely."
Empress Dowager Zhang smiled and said: "The mourning family is not a false praise, it is just a feeling." ”
At this time, Jiajing took the opportunity to say: "Queen Mother, today the two uncles went to the noon gate with people to ask for credit for Xu Qian's father and son, so Xu Qian was grateful in his heart and came to thank his mother." Xu Qian, do you say yes? ”
Xu Qian was silent for a moment and said, "No! ”
He was not shocking and died, and people invited him to come to the ring, but this guy actually came to dismantle the stage, which was a prelude to death.
Jiajing's face suddenly didn't look good, but Empress Dowager Zhang smiled and said, "Since it's not, then Xu Jieyuan came to see the mourning family, why did he come to see the mourning family?" ”
Xu Qian said awe-inspiringly: "The student is here to thank Niangniang on behalf of His Majesty. ”
Empress Dowager Zhang glanced at the stunned Jiajing and said, "Oh? This is interesting, the mourning family has no kindness to the emperor, even if there is a favor to thank, why do you need to do it for you?"
Jiajing was half angry at Xu Qian's assertions, but now that he had led the wolf into the house, he couldn't regret it, so he had to look cold and signal Xu Qian to reply carefully.
Xu Qian sighed: "Niangniang has great kindness to His Majesty, if it weren't for Niangniang's decision, how could His Majesty enter Beijing and ascend the throne?" People all over the world say that this is the merit of Bachelor Yang, it is Bachelor Yang who recommended His Majesty to Niangniang, and tried his best to run for His Majesty, Niangniang agreed to this matter, but in the eyes of students, the rumors are mostly untrue, Niangniang has always hoped that Majesty Xià can enter Beijing, and Bachelor Yang is just greedy for the merit of the sky, at most it is just the icing on the cake, just to fulfill Niangniang's heart. Niangniang's great kindness has always been remembered in her heart, but although she is grateful, she can't confide in the truth, so the student is grateful on behalf of her majesty. ”
These words first provoked Jiajing's anger, but then, he suddenly realized something, his eyes lit up, and he couldn't help nodding secretly. Xu Qian's house is really dark to the extreme, on the surface it is to thank him, on the one hand, it is to ease the relationship between Jiajing and the Empress Dowager Zhang, on the other hand, it is clearly sowing discord, who is the one who made Jiajing enter Beijing, in fact, there is no conclusion, but no matter what, for the current emperor, it is a great kindness, some people say that it is Yang Tinghe who tried his best to persuade the Empress Dowager Zhang, and some people say that this is the Empress Dowager Zhang's direct shot, and now he actually takes this out, which is equivalent to turning the Empress Dowager and Yang Tinghe into competitors, Yang Tinghe has robbed the Empress Dowager Zhang' Credit's suspicion?
Empress Dowager Zhang's face was calm, but secretly her heart fluctuated, of course she understood what Xu Qian meant, but on the other hand, she couldn't help but be secretly vigilant in her heart, it can be said that the move at that time was indeed a great kindness to Jiajing, but there were two people who sold well, either Yang Tinghe or her, no matter what she and Yang Tinghe had in mind at that time, but Empress Dowager Zhang hoped that Jiajing would be grateful to herself.
She knew that Xu Qian was provoking, but she couldn't help but feel a trace of disgust for Yang Tinghe in her heart, this old guy, could it be that what rumors were spread outside? () For mobile phone users, please go to read. )
