Chapter 195: The Big Picture

The residence of the Nangong family.

Inside the study.

Nangong Qingfeng stood with his hands in his hands, looking at the scenery outside the window.

"Big brother, why worry, even if Your Majesty really wants to burn a fire, it won't burn our Nangong family. ”

Nangong Mingjing was sitting on a chair, holding a cup of tea, and said leisurely.

Nangong Qingfeng frowned and sighed: "Having said that, if something really happens, how can my Nangong family be alone, some things still have to be fought for after all." ”

Nangong Mingjing shook his head and said: "Big brother, why do you have to worry about these things that have not happened yet, you need to know clearly, when the water is full, it will overflow, and everything will be the opposite, why not go with the flow, follow the general trend, and be undefeated." ”

Nangong Qingfeng's brows stretched slightly, and he groaned: "Maybe I'm thinking too much, or maybe it's just like what you said, second brother, just follow the trend!"

Nangong Mingjing chuckled and said: "Besides, if we are in a hurry, it will not be our turn, and some people are afraid that they are even more anxious in their hearts." ”

Hearing this, Nangong Qingfeng couldn't help but smile and said: "That's right, a few days ago, Your Majesty made a drastic move, but it hurt many people's muscles and bones, and there were a lot of losses. ”

Some time ago, those officials who were dealt with, no matter which faction they were, were severely punished as long as they were involved in corruption cases.

Among them, there are many backbone forces of many factions, but His Majesty has done it for the first time since he ascended the throne, so there are many things that can only be watched and not ended.

Otherwise, in this kind of thing, Jane is in the emperor's heart, and then I am afraid that the end will be, hehe......

As the saying goes, a companion is like a tiger, and you have to be careful.

Nangong Mingjing said: "Although His Majesty killed a group and warned a group, he also had to make some concessions, and Yang Xiu of the household department was a bargaining chip, and he made a regression." ”

Nangong Qingfeng nodded and said, "It's a pity, it's a pity that Yang Xiu is a person, there are few people who can compare with him in the court who is as talented as he is." ”

"Looking at his achievements since he took charge of the household department, at least the tax burden collected from various places alone has increased by several percent, alas! It's just that his background is not good, and he will not be allowed to enter the officialdom as a businessman after all!"

Nangong Mingjing also nodded and said: "Yes, Yang Xiu can be called a great talent, if it weren't for the problem of his background, with his deeds, he might not be able to leave a name in history." ”

"It's just that between gains and losses, who can say clearly, he just won the favor of the emperor and became an official, and reached a high position in a book. ”

"In the final analysis, he is just a money bag of the former emperor, and since he did those things for the former emperor, he is naturally destined to be a lonely minister. ”

With Yang Xiu's background, he is destined not to be allowed in the Wenchen, Shinong Industry and Commerce, with business as the lowest grade, in the eyes of scholars, money is pickled things, and businessmen are even more treacherous.

Therefore, since ancient times, scholars have also looked down on businessmen from the bottom of their bones, perhaps, the reason why the emperor was able to rest assured that Yang Xiu was in charge of the household department, in addition to cherishing his talents, also had this level of consideration.

Nangong Qingfeng thought about it, and still said with some unwillingness: "Then now some positions in the household department, are we really not fighting?"

Nangong Mingjing shook his head and said resolutely: "If you don't fight, you can't fight, the foundation of our Nangong family is in the military, if you fight, you will stretch your hand to the financial power of the household, so what will your majesty think?"

"The way of doing things in the imperial court lies in a balance, no one is an exception, once this balance is broken, it is not far from ruin. ”

Nangong Qingfeng smiled bitterly: "I'm just talking, and I don't really want to fight for anything, but in your opinion, what direction will the next court situation go?"

Nangong Mingjing pondered for a moment, and said slowly: "What direction...... It's hard to say, but one thing is certain, Your Majesty will never give up control of the household. ”

Nangong Qingfeng was stunned and said: "Oh, but didn't Yang Xiu resign, and a large number of cronies who were promoted by him in the household department have also been transferred, and next, it should be the cake that each family divides up the household department." ”

Nangong Mingjing shook his head and said: "Where is it so simple, the household department belongs to the court after all, and it belongs to Your Majesty after all, and it is okay for others to meddle, but if you want to control him, not only Your Majesty will not be able to get by, but the rest of the people will not agree." ”

"No one can swallow the household alone, and it can only always be in the hands of His Majesty, Yang Xiu's matter only means that His Majesty allows them to stretch out their hands, but it does not mean that they are allowed to swallow the entire household. ”

Hearing this, Nangong Qingfeng suddenly came to his senses, but then waved his hand and said: "Forget it, we won't be involved in the next thing, it's better to watch the fire from the other side and see what they can do." ”

Nangong Mingjing also chuckled, what will happen in the future is that the other forces will rely on their own means.

............

Shaw House.

The right minister Xiao Nanshan is playing a game of chess with Xiao Mu.

Black and white are staggered, and the two parties go to each other, which can always make people feel inexplicable.

"Mu Lan, your chess skills are getting better, in a few years, the old man is afraid that he will not be your opponent!" Xiao Nanshan stroked his beard and chuckled.

Xiao Mulan hurriedly said: "You are old and knowledgeable, and the younger generation is still far from the chess skills!"

Xiao Nanshan smiled and said: "You don't have to be too humble, the era that belongs to the old man's generation is about to come to an end, and the future belongs to you young people after all." ”

Seeing that Xiao Mulan was about to speak again, he waved his hand and said: "Now that the old man is old, he can't support it for a few years in the court, the only regret is that there is no successor to my Xiao family, and now there is no one who can take on the big responsibility." ”

"Your uncles and eldest brother have nothing to talk about, but you don't have that ability, and the only junior that the old man is optimistic about is you. ”

Xiao Mulan said in fear: "How can the younger generation shoulder the big responsibility, I am really afraid in my heart, I am afraid that something will go wrong and damage the interests of my Xiao family." ”

Xiao Nanshan stroked his beard and sighed lightly: "Alas, now the court situation is complex and changeable, and people's hearts are also the most unpredictable. ”

Xiao Mulan hesitated: "Then this time Yang rhetorician, all the vacancies in the household department ......"

Xiao Nanshan smiled faintly and said slowly: "Oh, what do you think my Xiao family should be in this matter." ”

Xiao Mulan thought about it seriously before he muttered: "As the saying goes, prosperity leads to decline, my Xiao family has been in power in the court for more than 20 years, and at this point, it is also time, it is time to think about a way out." ”

"Therefore, the younger generation thinks that the vacancy in the household department can be put aside to show the attitude of our Xiao family, and to fight without fighting, it can also make Your Majesty feel more at ease. ”

Xiao Nanshan nodded and said, "Yes, if you don't fight, if you can think of this, it's much better than those things at home that don't fight, but you still think less about it." ”

Xiao Mulan hurriedly said: "You always make it clear." ”

Xiao Nanshan sighed: "Now my Xiao family has a big business, just like a big ship, not only my Xiao family is on the boat, but also many officials with interests involved. ”

"At this point, it's not like you can stop if you want to, if you take out the Xiao family at this time, those former allies will become a group of jackals, and they will bite you back. ”

"At that time, how could the Xiao family stop everyone, you must know that there is never a shortage of people in the world, not to mention that there is a huge temptation of interests, and if the Xiao family collapses, the vacated interests are theirs. ”

Xiao Mulan was shocked: "Yes, it's true, it's too superficial what I thought. ”

Xiao Nanshan chuckled: "These things, you have actually thought about them very well, but they are almost thoughtful, unlike others, who only care about the immediate interests, but they don't know that the tree is a big deal, and the crisis has always existed." ”

Xiao Mulan hurriedly said, "Then what should my Xiao family do this time?"

Xiao Nanshan said: "Fight, since there is a shortage of households, it is natural to fight." ”

Seeing Xiao Mulan's puzzled face, he chuckled: "This is called advancing and retreating, only in this way can we have more chips to play, but this battle cannot be led by my Xiao family, let alone my Xiao family." ”

"If you are in a hurry, your appearance will be ugly, and it will also leave traces in Your Majesty's heart, so my Xiao family can drive others to fight, but people from the Xiao family are not allowed to enter. ”

Xiao Mulan said with a little enlightenment: "You always think that if it comes to a critical moment, cut off this part of the ......"

Xiao Nanshan groaned: "It must be abandoned, but it can't be too embarrassed, otherwise, it will make others think that my Xiao family can be bullied, and if it is not broken, if it can survive once, my Xiao family will not be able to continue to be brilliant for another twenty years." ”

Speaking of this, Xiao Nanshan's eyes were sharp, and he said in a light tone: "If you have to, some people can also abandon it." ”

Hearing this, Xiao Mulan's heart tightened, some of the people in these words are naturally the Xiao family, but they don't know ......

Alas!
