Chapter 53 Accompanying the king is like accompanying the tiger and closing the door

If you want to say which one is the most popular in Beijing during this time, it must belong to the Su family, a hussar general in the east of the city. Especially after the Baicheng incident reached Shangjing, the people of the whole city were boiling. Everyone was discussing this matter after tea and dinner, and the people were praising the Su family while denouncing the barbarians.

These remarks can be described as a double-edged sword, which not only pushed the Su family to the forefront of public opinion, but also increased the status of the Su family by a few points. If such a thing falls on another family, it may be a good thing, but if it is placed in the Su family, it is an absolutely bad thing.

Su Zhanming had already thought about it before, a companion is like a tiger, especially since their Su family is still a family of military generals. Such a family has been the object of the emperor's jealousy in all dynasties, as the saying goes, the side of the couch does not allow others to snore, and the emperor naturally does not worry about those families who hold heavy troops and are highly respected.

Coincidentally, the Su family is such a family, especially now. Originally, although Su Zhanming said that he had military power, he didn't make any big moves to make the emperor jealous, but now it is different. The Su family was brought to a high position by the people, and the emperor heard the news in the palace, so he became nervous in his heart.

Su Zhanming is not a fool, he naturally knows what he is going through now, so he simply closes the door and sees no one. Because since he came back, there have been officials from the DPRK and China who have come to ask for a meeting, and these people have a clear mind in Su Zhanming's heart.

In order not to get involved in unnecessary trouble, Su Zhanming closed the door on the second day of his return under the pretext of accompanying his mother at home. This trip to Baicheng is not only famous for Su Zhanming, but also for Su Xiuyun's name to soar and be well-known to everyone.

Su Xiuyun is not only the daughter of a wealthy family, but also a miracle doctor with medical skills, and the most important thing is that her father is still a powerful minister with heavy troops in the court. There are few women with such conditions, even if you look at the whole of Shangjing, because many officials' families have thoughts that they shouldn't move.

Many people handed over the greeting post, took generous gifts and prepared to come to the door to say goodbye to their children, but they were all told that Su Zhan would close the door early tomorrow. After knowing the news, there were still people who didn't want to come to the door to lobby, but they didn't want Su Zhanming to do more this time, so he asked the emperor for leave and took his family out of the city for a trip.

After Su Zhanming came back, he had been planning to take advantage of this time to avoid the limelight, seeing that there were more and more people coveting his daughter, Su Zhanming simply took the family and ran away collectively. Just in time to be able to take the old lady out to have a look, Su Xiuyun accepted the proposal very happily.

After Xuanyuan Li found out, he sent Yunqing over to Su Xiuyun as a personal maid, and Su Zhanming didn't say anything after knowing it, which was considered a tacit approval. In this way, Su Xiuyun and his party set off with a simple salute.

It's just that there were some episodes the day before departure, first Su Zhanming asked the emperor to be approved, and then he was left in the palace for questioning, and then the head of the Ji family came to ask for a meeting.

Su Zhanming was left by the emperor in the Qinzheng Hall and spoke for a while, and the words were all about introducing Su Xiuyun to the object. But Su Zhanming knew that he couldn't let go of this matter, and once it was mastered by the emperor, the Su family's life would not be easy after that.

The emperor said that he wanted to marry Su Xiuyun, but in fact, he wanted to send someone to monitor the Su family. Su Zhanming, who knew the pros and cons of this, immediately said that the emperor still wanted to hear about Su Xiuyun's children. Afraid that the emperor would refute him, he specially moved out Su Xiuyun's deceased mother, so that the emperor would have no reason to say more.

This matter was put aside, and the emperor inquired about Su Zhanming's thoughts again. Of course, Su Zhanming knew what the other party was asking, so he simply replied that he had no dissenting intentions and was loyal to the imperial court.

While speaking, Su Zhanming also knelt down, and the old uncle burst into tears in the Qinzheng Palace, "Emperor Mingjian!" The minister knows that he has military power, but these are all given by the emperor to the minister, and the minister never dares to enjoy it exclusively. ”

"If the emperor can't trust the minister, then the minister asks the emperor to take back the minister's military power and give the minister an idle position to support the family!" Su Zhanming swore that what he said was called a Chen Ken, because after being an official for so many years, Su Zhanming had already seen the essence of the imperial court.

If he can really disarm and return to the field, it is not a bad thing, Su Zhanming thought so, but the emperor couldn't let him go easily. You must know that Su Zhanming was an invincible god of war when he was young, and even if he is old now, he is an indispensable talent for the imperial court, and it is impossible for the emperor to let him go with such a person.

So he put down the folds in his hand, the emperor got up and personally helped Su Zhanming up, and said a lot of words and rewarded a lot of good things. After saying this, the emperor asked some innocuous questions and let Su Zhanming go, and on the way out of the palace, Su Zhanming immediately prepared to go home, pack his things and set off for a trip.

But I didn't want to meet Ji Minglang, the head of the Ji family, who had been waiting for a long time, at the gate of the palace not long after I went out, and I knew that I had been waiting for a long time by looking at his surprised look.

"General Su, General Su, please stay!"

Su Zhanming didn't know why he agreed to go home with him, and the two talked in the study for a while before the words ended. Ji Minglang was still smiling when he went out, as if he had gotten some terrible news.

It just so happened that Su Xiuyun came to discuss the trip with Su Zhanming at this time, and at a glance saw the father who had taught him for many years. At that moment, Su Xiuyun admitted that her eyes were a little moist, after all, they were relatives she had been with for many years.

But when she thought of what the other party had done, Su Xiuyun was still a little unable to let go. So when the other party greeted him, he only responded lightly, and he didn't show much closeness. Su Zhanming saw her coming, and immediately happily introduced her, "Come to Yun'er, this is your Uncle Ji, a friend in my father's court." ”

Hearing this, Su Xiuyun called Uncle Ji without being salty, and then saw the other party talking to him with a smile. Although he didn't like the eccentricity of the father in front of him, in the end, he was the father in his previous life, and Su Xiuyun still couldn't completely ignore the other party.

However, the other party looks very good now, and Su Xiuyun didn't find too many traces of time on the other party, so she let go of those thoughts. After Ji Minglang left, Su Xiuyun and Su Zhanming entered the study to discuss the current situation faced by the Su family.

During this period, Su Xiuyun told Su Zhanming his views on the court and the authorities, and the latter praised him again and again after listening to it, saying that Su Xiuyun had his own opinions. I was also very pleased that Su Xiuyun could understand her thoughts, and after discussing for a long time, the two finally decided to go to a city that was a little farther away but could find out the dynamics of Shanghai at any time.

After coming out of the study, Su Xiuyun went back to rest for a good night, and the next day began the first trip of the first life of the rework.
