The dim candlelight jumped, and Jing Jian's eyes became darker and darker, as if they were about to merge with the night.

Su Chengxi held Jingjian's cheeks with both hands, stared at him with soft eyes, and said softly: "Huan'er actually likes you very much and relies on you very much, he has been talking about you during your absence, even if your current identity is no longer his father, he still has an unparalleled good impression of you." ”

Jingjian Adam's apple rolled slightly, he felt guilty for his son, and he nodded in response: "I know." Xi'er, there are some things I can tell you, because you are the wife who wants to spend my life with me, but Huan'er is still too young to tell him some things. ”

He also wants to recognize his son and make their family happy together.

Just like it used to be.

Su Chengxi lowered his eyes, with a tired and sad expression on his face: "Now there are too few forces in the court that have been co-opted by me, and even the Zhongwu Hou has a problem. I asked people to check, and they did find something, but Zhongwu Hou still has some things available, and I am very entangled, and I don't know what to do. ”

The Marquis of Chungwu is indeed a little unclean.

Jing Jian knew, but in his opinion, the advantages of keeping the loyal martial arts hou outweighed the disadvantages.

When he was still the emperor, it was not that he did not give hints to the Marquis of Zhongwu.

The Marquis of Zhongwu has also stopped a lot.

But now that he is gone, his son and daughter-in-law will inevitably be unable to suppress Zhongwuhou.

If you continue to indulge, I am afraid that it will backfire.

"Marquis Zhongwu has a lot of silver in his hands, and he is quite low-key during this time, and it will take some time to find his mistakes and catch him all." Jing Jian's big hand around Su Chengxi's waist moved slowly, but the expression on his face was very serious, he said: "Now that the treasury is not abundant, silver is needed everywhere, and the silver stored by the Marquis of Zhongwu can indeed support it for a period of time." ”

There was also this reason why he kept Zhongwu Hou at the beginning.

Zhongwuhou is corrupt and corrupt, but he is indeed capable, and he does not dare to be too presumptuous under his beating, and he has to do things for him because he is caught.

He used to have many things that were inconvenient to handle, and they were all done by Zhongwu Hou.

Chungmu Marquis did a good job, which made him very satisfied.

But now, Zhongwu Hou was accidentally caught by someone, so he can't be blamed for borrowing some silver from Zhongwu Hou to spend it.

Su Chengxi looked at Jing Jian's attitude and knew that he knew about Zhongwu Hou from the beginning.

She is not a fool, she reacted after a little thought, she raised her eyebrows and looked at Jing Jian, seeking his opinion: "So, what do you think, what should be done?" ”

"Now is not the time to bring down the Marquis of Zhongwu."

Jing Jian reached out and held Su Chengxi's little hand, leaned over to his lips and kissed it, and said in a low voice: "He still has some use, and some things are inconvenient to do, so you can hand them over to him, as for the silver in his private treasury, you can also go and ask for some in case you need it." ”

Su Chengxi understood.

Lowering her eyes to Shang Jingjian's smiling eyes, she hooked her lips and smiled, and teased: "I suddenly understand why the emperor raises traitors around him, and the boss raises villains around him." ”

Because traitors and villains have handles, they don't dare to be too presumptuous in doing things, they can still pick up wool when they need money, and the most important thing is that there are some things that are inconvenient for them to do, just hint at it, and someone will do it properly.

If the other party goes too far, you can find a reason to fire someone.

It's just wonderful.
