47. Return
Princess Changning was picked up by the Xiling envoy group, and by the way, she participated in the wedding of Ye Quan and the county lord of Zhenning.
Speaking of which, this time it was Xiling who was at a loss, and it stands to reason that he had to be polite to Daqin, but he knew that the Xiling envoy group was still the same as Emperor Yanchang, and he had not changed his attitude at all, and almost asked Emperor Yanchang to deliberately regret and detain Princess Changning.
Of course, Xiling took a step back and did not ask Daqin for this group of spies, and handed it over to Daqin with full authority. In this regard, Emperor Yanchang felt a little relieved, but he still felt that Xiling was too self-righteous to Great Qin.
Daqin Xiling is comparable, and it's not who is worse than whom, why do you have to look at the nostrils of Xiling people?
In the process of receiving the Xiling envoy group and then sending off the Xiling envoy group, He Zhishang appeared beside Emperor Yanchang and negotiated with the Xiling representatives for Emperor Yanchang.
Emperor Yanchang was very satisfied, and no matter how much unhappiness he had, it disappeared in front of He Zhishang's super ability to do things.
"He Aiqing, you have worked hard. I want to reward you well. ”
Emperor Yanchang was very satisfied, and the Xiling envoy group took back Princess Changning, but he did not dare to conflict with Daqin, and gave up many benefits, so that Daqin's prestige was higher.
Dongfang Xuanyi wanted to form an alliance to resist Northern Liang, and Emperor Yanchang agreed, but if he wanted it, he would ask for it, who let Dongfang Xuanyi not be a man first?
"Wei Fu just tried his best to do his errand, relying on the blessing of His Majesty and the gods, so that today's great success has been achieved."
He Zhishang said humbly.
He was all too familiar with dealing with Emperor Yanchang, and compared to his stingy and selfish youngest son, Emperor Yanchang could already be regarded as a broad-minded monarch. He Zhishang's promotion has never been concealed, nor is he jealous of his ability, there is a Li Xiangye in the front, and there is a He Zhishang in the back, and He Zhishang can tilt the power of the government and the opposition, a large part of the reason is that Emperor Yanchang's appreciation and promotion are justified.
Emperor Yanchang is old, and sooner or later he will return to the west, so he has to make full preparations to prevent the little emperor from having the opportunity to become emperor again.
Facts have proved that the little emperor is not that material at all, and the decline of Great Qin's national strength is certainly a lot of problems left over from history, but the little emperor's misdeeds are also the main culprit in accelerating the decline of Great Qin.
For the little emperor, He Zhishang in the previous life repaid everything with his own life, and he didn't want to repeat the mistakes of the past in this life, so let's go to everyone.
Emperor Yanchang was very satisfied with He Zhishang's attitude, and he also became more and more appreciative of him, "If I have a son like Weifu, I will have no regrets in this life." ”
Saying this sentence has proved that Emperor He Zhishang of Yanchang is a definite favorite.
He Zhishang lowered his head. In his previous life, he endured the little emperor again and again, that is, he cared about the grace of Emperor Yanchang, and his scenery and wealth depended on Emperor Yanchang, without Emperor Yanchang, there would be no later him.
He was grateful to Emperor Yanchang from the bottom of his heart, and he sincerely wanted to assist the little emperor to create a prosperous era. It's a pity that the little emperor and him didn't have a chance to achieve a beautiful talk about fish and water.
"Your Majesty's words are serious, several princes are dragon species, and they are different."
He Zhishang said lightly. The eldest prince Qin Rong is cowardly, the second prince Qin Bing is arrogant, the third prince Qin Xiang is hypocritical, the fourth prince Qin Hui and the fifth prince Qin Du are too young to see anything.
His lofty ideals need to be drawn slowly, and he cannot be in a hurry.
"Humph!"
Emperor Yanchang pretended to be dissatisfied, "My sons, where is the demeanor of Weifu?" The attitude became very fast, and the salutation became a word list.
"The minister thinks that the talents of several princes need to be further investigated, and Your Majesty must not be in a hurry."
He Zhishang has the ability to see people and talk nonsense, this Emperor Yanchang wants to test him, and he can't take it seriously.
When Emperor Yanchang heard this, he sighed, "After investigating for so long, there is no one who meets my heart." ”
It's one thing to belong to Prince Qin, Prince Qin is too young, add a Empress Dowager Ji on top, Emperor Yanchang is worried, he is worried that Empress Dowager Ji will rely on her grandson to interfere in court politics, this kind of thing has happened in the first imperial dynasty, and Empress Dowager Ji later fell out of favor is her "Ji Si Chen".
At that time, it was not Emperor Yanchang who repeatedly pleaded for mercy, and Empress Dowager Ji had already been deposed by the first emperor and left behind.
Don't forget, the first emperor had countless concubines and many younger brothers and sisters, and the first emperor had no concerns about having to only have an eldest son.
Seeing the worry in Emperor Yanchang's heart, He Zhishang said lightly: "Your Majesty, everything has its own fate, and the minister is not familiar with several princes, so he cannot judge the merits, but Weichen thinks that after seeing the hearts of the people for a long time, His Majesty will be upset at this time, maybe this problem can be solved in the future." ”
Emperor Yanchang did not loosen his brows because of this, but tightened his brows.
The eldest prince is not within the scope of his immediate reserve, his qualifications are dull and unbearable, but he still considers the face of Queen Lu for the eldest son and treats him a little kindly.
The second prince and the third prince are all the sons of Jiang Guifei, and they are talented, but it is a pity that their hearts are unstable, and when they become emperors, the world of Great Qin is in danger. Jiang Guifei also does not have the style of the queen mother in the world, so it is not suitable for her to be the emperor's mother. is most worried that she will kill the princess and prince who is not her, which is not unprecedented.
The fourth prince Qin Hui, the fifth prince Qin Du, the sixth prince Qin Qi, the seventh prince Qin Jin, and the eighth prince Qin Chu, these five sons are still too young to see why.
Emperor Yanchang's deep inner torment is understandable, he has no years to live, and if he is not sure about the future prince candidate, I am afraid that he will have to fall into turmoil.
"Wei Fu, you have talent, work hard, I won't treat you badly."
In desperation, Emperor Yanchang chose to put it aside and not consider this issue.
The big ones can't be used, so you can only choose the small ones. The question is, which is the most suitable? Qin Chu, is he really good?
In the previous life, Emperor Yanchang's choice of Prince Qin was also based on the premise that Empress Dowager Ji died, Concubine Ji De's generosity, and Empress Lu's intercession, which allowed Prince Qin to ascend to the top of the Nine Crowns.
If there is no shortage of other princes, there will be no matter of Prince Qin.
He Zhishang clenched his fists, "I am willing to repay Your Majesty at all costs." The sonorous voice shows his confidence.
Emperor Yanchang relaxed his brows, "Okay, Wei Fu, you're welcome, I won't eat you." You did a good job this time, you say, if you have any wishes, I will satisfy you, as long as it is not too difficult. ”
Emperor Yanchang had high hopes for He Zhishang, his sons all needed a loyal minister to sit in the court, He Zhishang met this condition, and he did not have a strong background behind him, so he could only rely on the emperor.
Emperor Yanchang is also relieved to use.
Seeing that Emperor Yanchang was elated, He Zhishang suddenly proposed: "There are always deficiencies in Weichen, and if Your Majesty condemns him in the future, I hope to forgive my sins." ”
The holy decree was not used between himself and Emperor Yanchang, it was to prevent another small emperor from appearing.
The little emperor Qin Chu is now just a little doll who eats milk, innocently playing with Concubine Ji De in front of Emperor Yanchang, unlike the powerful monarch who later monopolized power.
He Zhishang couldn't say what he thought of the little emperor in his heart, anyway, he was on guard.
Emperor Yanchang didn't care about this, "This wish is simple, I will give you an edict to keep you safe." ”
He Zhi discussed this edict, in the final analysis, it was a way back, worried that one day he would die of a cunning rabbit and a lackey cook.
Emperor Yanchang sighed slightly, he couldn't do this kind of thing, the problem was that his son might not kill He Zhishang.
People's hearts are fickle, Emperor Yanchang thought in his heart.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, Longen."
Compared with Qin Chu, it is really a heaven and a place.
He Zhishang led the edict back to his mansion, which was rewarded by Emperor Yanchang, not very big, just five, but it was clean and beautiful, and close to the palace, Emperor Yanchang was clearly convenient for He Zhishang.
Kong Xiwen Hu Lun was very envious, none of them had the emperor's blue eyes like He Zhishang, and he did it, and he was favored.
"Wei Fu, Your Majesty values you so much, you have to cherish it."
Feng Heng and Zeng Minghan, who have not appeared, came belatedly and came to congratulate He Zhishang High School on exploring flowers.
He Zhishang's face was pale, and he politely did enough to entertain the guests, and he was not too enthusiastic.
Feng Heng had some regrets, once upon a time, how close he was to He Zhishang, he gradually drifted apart, and He Zhishang only had a good relationship with Zhao Qian.
Zeng Minghan is different, he is so popular in his hometown, he has been snubbed in the capital, and he also wants to further promote Li Xiangye, but he didn't expect that Gao Sheng failed and became a joke.
It is not surprising that he has taken the Jinshi examination several times in recent years, but he is lagging behind He Zhishang, Zeng Minghan is not convinced.
Isn't it just a little better-looking? Why do so many people like him? What did he lose to him?
The jealousy in my heart was burning, and I couldn't wait to peel He Zhishang and cramp, it felt like a curse on the villain.
He Zhishang raised his eyebrows, Zeng Minghan was jealous of him, he couldn't ask for it, this person betrayed him in his previous life and took refuge in Qin Chu, but he turned his head and was sold by Qin Chu, his reputation was ruined, and he had no good death.
In his previous life, he had no children and no wife, Zeng Minghan actively introduced women to him, he refused all, one is still Zeng Minghan's cousin, he doesn't like it, who knows that Zeng Minghan has a grudge because of this, and thinks that He Zhishang looks down on him, so he went to take refuge in Qin Chu And then there was no more, and he died gorgeously.
If the mind is not right, no matter where this person goes, he is a very failure.
He Zhishang was the first to speak, "Do you have advice?" ”
Don't think about it when you woo him to join Li Xiangye, he and Emperor Yanchang have already been bound.
"Wei Fu, you are so beautiful, I am happy for you, it's just ......" Feng Heng hinted meaningfully, "It is difficult for people who have no backers to mix in the capital these days." ”
Li Xiangye loves talents and cherishes talents, and he has been eyeing He Zhishang for a long time, but the other party was unmoved, and he waited until after high school to reveal his real kung fu.
He Zhishang was both civil and military, and he entered the eyes of Emperor Yanchang again, Li Xiangye was really annoyed that he was a step late, but fortunately, He Zhishang had not yet mixed out of Mingtang, and it was not a problem to carry one.
Li Xiangye's meaning, Feng Heng Zeng Minghan received it, and he wanted to win over He Zhishang and let them come forward to intercede.
It's just that the dream is beautiful, but the reality is cruel.
"I am His Majesty's courtier, and everything is based on him."
He Zhishang smiled lightly, a glint flashing in his eyes.
Feng Heng is still different from Zeng Minghan, although Feng Heng is also careful, but he also wants Daqin to be better, in his previous life, he interceded with He Zhishang and was directly deposed and exiled.
Feng Heng is willing to ask for mercy from He Zhishang, which is enough to see the biggest difference between him and Zeng Minghan. Zeng Minghan is just a villain who tends to be inflammatory, and Feng Heng is still upright in his bones.
As soon as he heard this, Feng Heng said, "Weifu, listen to me, Li Xiangye values you very much, Li Xiangye is a loyal minister of the imperial court, and if you follow him, you will not suffer." ”
Li Xiangye also fought when he was young, not a simple literati.
Is He Zhishang impressed with Li Xiangye? No, it won't.
"Those are two different things, I have always respected Li Xiangye."
He Zhishang's face was calm.
He is all from Emperor Yanchang, why do people still want to win him over? Extremely daring.
Zeng Minghan frowned, "Wei Fu, you are also a smart person, why are you confused at this time?" Don't forget, you have already rejected several family affairs, and you have long been rejected by some people, if you reject Li Xiangye again, where should you go? ”
He Zhishang was targeted before high school, not to mention that he was hot at this time, and many people wanted to recruit sons-in-law, but He Zhishang refused all of them.
He doesn't lack anyone to serve, he just wants to be idle and not be controlled. Emperor Yanchang himself was ready to marry him, and he could find the princess and the county lord, but He Zhishang repeatedly said that he had no idea of getting married for the time being, so he could persuade Emperor Yanchang to stop the idea of being a matchmaker.
Regarding the refusal of marriage, He Zhishang did not do it for the first time, and there was no shortage of the second and third time.
He raised his eyebrows, "I sit upright, and Your Majesty treats me like a mountain, how can I have the idea of caring for me and not being full of me?" ”
He established the idea of serving the country from a young age, his parents died young, honest and devoted his whole life, he was born as a low-level peasant, he couldn't do anything, his growth was inseparable from the teaching of his uncle and aunt, and he was grateful for the nurturing grace of his uncle and aunt.
Maybe it's because his father and mother left early, he has wanted to fight for a peaceful world for the people of the world since he was a child.
Now that my wish has not come true, how can I be home?
"Wei Fu," Feng Heng still wanted to continue to persuade him, "Li Xiangye is a very good person, you also said that it is good to enjoy the shade with your back against the big tree, isn't it?" Isn't Lee Sang-ye worth your refuge? ”
Compared with the distant emperor, Feng Heng Zeng Minghan trusted Corporal Li Xiangye more. Although Li Xiangye is now being reprimanded by Emperor Yanchang, he is not as good as before, but his influence cannot fade in a few words.
He Zhishang replied: "Eat the king's lu, bear the king's worries, I am not Li Xiangye's minister, I am a subject of Great Qin." ”
It's not that Li Xiangye is not worthy of him doing this, but he has already planned to go his own way and be impartial.
"You!" Zeng Minghan sneered, "He Zhishang, what are you arrogant?" Didn't you just cast in His Majesty's eyes to make it so smooth? I tell you, feng shui takes turns, flowers are not red for a hundred days, you can go down with pride, and see if His Majesty will always trust you. ”
He looked at He Zhishang to death, and he didn't think He Zhishang had any big potential, and he was pedantic.
He Zhishang smiled: "I'm now a Chinese scholar, it's not bad." ”
Zhongshu Shilang is not low, as long as He Zhishang works hard, he may not be able to stand in the way of the third-grade master in less than three years.
