Chapter 82: Shrewdness
Uncle Sun couldn't help frowning when he heard this, this young man is smarter than ordinary people, but how can he make him so jealous?
"Is the master thinking too highly of him?"
Shen Zhongkang glanced at him: "Look high? Do you remember how he reacted when you went to find him? ”
Uncle Sun looked slightly stunned, and then remembered the reaction of the young man when he went to the Flynn Courtyard to find Xue Nuo just now, when he hugged Pu and they were there, he was still thinking about how not to alarm the people in the room and take people away, who thought that the young man would come out by himself, and he was not surprised when he met him in the courtyard.
He said that the old man wanted to see him, Xue Nuo didn't ask much at all, and followed with a calm expression, and even when he brought people over and hid behind the window to eavesdrop on the conversation between the ancestors and grandchildren in the house, the young man was a little too quiet, as if he was ......
He had known that the old man would be looking for him tonight.
Seeing Uncle Sun's face change, Shen Zhongkang sighed lightly and said: "I'm afraid that he already knew that there would be something tonight, and even he made a scene today, teaching that person a fake, and wanted to take the opportunity to see me It was true, he probably knew that I sent someone to check him and let people enter his house, so he took the initiative to bump into him." ”
Uncle Sun opened his mouth slightly: "Then ...... him"
"He didn't mean to be in the Shen family."
Shen Zhongkang believed this.
That young man may not have entered Beijing for the Chengguo Mansion, but it was indeed not for the Shen family, otherwise, with the heart he revealed, if he really wanted to do something to the Shen family, he would definitely hide himself tightly and not leak it at all, and he would not make a thing like this today to arouse his suspicions.
Xue Nuo probably knew that he was suspicious, so he simply spread the matter out.
"He took the initiative to expose it, not only to tell me that he would not harm the Shen family for the time being, but also to tell me that he has no ill will towards the prince, and you didn't find out that he was actually biased towards the prince when he mentioned the prince just now, and he probably knows more about Caoyun and the affairs of the court than we thought."
Uncle Sun hesitated: "Could it be that the eldest prince told him?" ”
"No, it won't." Shen Zhongkang said directly, "Changyuan is a measured person, even if he protects Xue Nuo, he will not tell him too clearly about the affairs in the court to an outsider, let alone tell him the prince's plans." ”
"Xue Nuo has other channels in his hands to know about the affairs of the DPRK and China."
What's more, he may be implicated in the DPRK and Caoyun, which is also the reason why Shen Zhongkang took a break and moved directly towards Xue Nuo, wanting to keep people for the time being.
Shen Zhongkang remembered what Xue Nuo had just said, and his eyes condensed slightly.
His Majesty asked the crown prince to preside over the trial of the illicit salt case this time, and they did think about taking the opportunity to take the important position of Caoyun, and if there was such a big mess, it would be difficult for Zhu Ying and Guo Yueguang to get out, and once they "formed an alliance" with Zhan Changdong, with the help of this person who was familiar with Caoyun's affairs, it was not difficult to take the position of the governor of Caoyun.
But Xue Nuo's words gave him a wake-up call.
His Majesty has become more and more jealous of the prince in recent years, and this time the prince was mixed with Cao Yun with the intention of embarrassing him, the purpose was to pull the prince to block the sword and sword shadow in the court, and erect him as the target of a group of courtiers.
The matter of Cao Yun caused trouble in the court, which was not only a raft for His Majesty to "temper" the prince, but also a means for him to return to the power of the court.
The crown prince presided over the trial of Cao Yun's case, and it is indeed not difficult to take the opportunity to install his own people to take over Cao Yun, but it will undoubtedly offend His Majesty even more, and even attract many princes and many people in the court to attack him.
The involvement of Cao Yun up and down is too big, even if Zhan Changdong is there, they may not be able to guarantee that everyone below is clean, but if there are one or two people like Zhu Ying in the future, the prince will not be able to clean up at that time, but will put himself in a dilemma.
He lost both the holy will and the court.
On the contrary, if the prince is a little "soft" and takes the initiative to give up the "interests" of Caoyun, there will be others competing for the position of the governor of Caoyun, and there will naturally be someone in front of the prince.
In the struggle for power, His Majesty has no time to target the prince, and others can't take care of the prince's side, and the prince can better focus on the court......
For example, six?
Among them, the household department that is most involved with Caoyun will be more beneficial to the prince if it can be won.
Shen Zhongkang thought a lot in his mind for a moment, and in a moment he figured out the benefits and benefits that the prince could get after retreating, he squinted slightly, and rubbed a chess piece in his hand: "This Xue Nuo's grasp of the affairs of the court is even sharper than some old guys in the court. ”
He said to Sun Bo, "Go and withdraw the people from the Flynn Courtyard, and keep an eye on the new recruits in the mansion these days, Xue Nuo will send him directly if he wants, don't be embarrassed." ”
Uncle Sun frowned: "Then you won't monitor from now on?" ”
"Yes, but change someone and let Huang Phosphorus keep an eye on him personally."
Huang Phosphorus is one of the few spies in the Shen family, his means are extremely high, and his kung fu is also first-class, even in the palace, he can come and go freely.
If it weren't necessary, Shen Zhongkang wouldn't use him easily.
"Xue Nuo is showing favor today, I am afraid that he is preparing to see the prince in the future, on the day of the trial of the private salt case, he will go to the yamen with Changyuan nine times out of ten...... "With his grandson's temperament, he will not let Xue Nuo enter the lobby, but he can see the prince when he waits outside the hall."
"He suddenly moved people today, used Changlin Changrui, and took the initiative to expose so much, the ultimate goal is probably on the prince."
Uncle Sun was shocked when he heard this: "He actually came for the prince?" ”
"Yes or no, we will know if he will go to see the prince on the day of the court trial."
Shen Zhongkang looked at him slightly: "I can't see what he is asking for, Qingyun's future, from the dragon's power?" Or something else...... However, it is harmless for the time being, whether it is loyal or treacherous, let's take a look first, and tell Huang Phosphorus that he doesn't care about anything else, just stare at Xue Nuo. ”
If it's good, it's okay to keep it, but if you have something else in mind......
The chess pieces in Shen Zhongkang's hand landed on the chessboard with a "snap".
Such a shrewd and cunning person cannot be kept.
Uncle Sun naturally heard what Shen Zhongkang meant, and was also frightened that the young man actually had such ability, and he actually asked the old man to use yellow phosphorus to stare at it personally.
His original contempt instantly dissipated, and he couldn't help but regard the young man as a dangerous person, but he couldn't help but say: "Since the master knows that he is not a good person, why doesn't he let the son know?" ”
"You really don't know anything when Changyuan?" Shen Zhongkang snorted.
Seeing Uncle Sun's face stunned.
Shen Zhongkang said angrily, "That kid probably knows more than me, why do you think he had to go south for the crown prince in the first place, find an excuse to visit but stay in Jiangnan for a few months, and then take Xue Nuo's affairs for no reason and mix them into the smuggling salt case?" ”
