Chapter 492: Gift-giving

Presumably, the father and emperor also thought so, let Su Ziji come in, the three parties checked and balanced, and the three wrestled, so that the court could stabilize at the same time, but also let himself and the king of Qi be "busy", so as not to put extra thoughts in the palace.

Father's heart is really the same as always.

Especially thinking that his father is the emperor, he has always been ruthless, and he can make the best value for himself, even the eldest son who was once favored, the crown prince of the year, can be directly erased when he violates the right, he and King Qi are just the new chess pieces of the father, but this chess piece is expensive, and it is not yet time to be thrown away.

As long as he does not violate his father's bottom line, with his father's consistent style, he will naturally not do anything to himself.

When the King of Shu thought of this, he laughed at himself: "How much I envied the prince back then, and since the moment the prince was killed, how much I understand that our sons have never had the right to be important in the eyes of our father." ”

The relationship between father and son is thinner than paper and fragile in the imperial city.

But he didn't say this, but when he sighed like this, his hand subconsciously clenched the chair.

The death of the rabbit and the fox are sad, nothing more than that.

"If the crown prince is dead, will our prince be too peaceful? No, the death of the prince is actually a wake-up call for us. ”

"Even if he became the crown prince and occupied the position of the eldest concubine, he was orthodox, but when the emperor really wanted to get rid of it, he had no resistance at all. ”

"Only by cultivating power, fighting for the supreme rights in the world, and fighting for great treasures, can we really be safe and worry-free. ”

"Father, this is the fact that you used blood to teach me and my eldest brother, so now that you are old, you are afraid, and you can't complain about us. ”

lowered his eyes to hide the ambition and resentment in his eyes, and when he raised his eyes again, he was the open-minded and gentle King of Shu again.

"Okay, your idea is good, it's the king who said it a little heavier. Waving his hand to let the staff sit down again, the King of Shu looked at the staff present again.

After a while, a staff member cautiously re-spoke: "Your Highness, but now Your Majesty has let Su Zi enter the game, it has become a triangular situation, Your Highness is already in danger, you must guard against it." ”

"And what do you say to do?"

King Shu squinted, he had already gained insight into his father's thoughts, and he actually had an idea, but at this time he still looked at this staff member and asked.

"The minister suggested that His Majesty's introduction of Su Zi is unstoppable. ”

"With King Qi as the vanguard, we don't have to go into battle in person, this time we follow His Majesty's wishes to express our deference. ”

When he said this, the staff member was also anxious and a little annoyed.

If it weren't for some lurking guy to deal with Su Ziji, how could he make things so passive?

The king of Shu did not speak, this proposal actually coincided with his own thoughts.

He is very different from King Qi in terms of personality, King Qi has a violent temperament and is easy to be impulsive when encountering things, while King Shu is probably because he was often bullied by King Qi when he was a child, and his mother is not favored.

At the beginning, he and King Qi, one was evaluated by the emperor as too brave and impulsive, and the other was evaluated as easy to be indecisive in trouble.

But I have to say that their respective personalities have also helped them and helped them at critical times, and the nature of the country is easy to change, even if they want to change, it is not easy.

Just like at this time, even if the King of Shu is dissatisfied in his heart, he will never be as angry as the King of Qi on the spot, and his staff naturally dare to analyze and give advice to him on this kind of matter.

"The ministers seconded it!"

"This is indeed a way, although it can't break the game, but it can allow the prince to avoid the edge and slowly figure it out. ”

Other aides also spoke, and most of them agreed with the suggestion of this aide.

The king of Shu thought of some rumors about Su Ziji, and his heart was also moved: "Not only do I want to give him a gift, but I also want to meet this good nephew in person." ”

But some staff reminded: "Your Highness needs to be careful when giving gifts at this time, if you give it heavily, it will easily arouse Your Majesty's suspicion, and if you give it lightly, it will be more like humiliation." ”

"You are an adult prince who has been crowned a king, and you have no precedent to follow in this dynasty, I don't know what specifications you plan to use to give gifts?"

It's an official, in fact, it's easy to say, the respect of the prince, to give gifts to officials, to say that it sounds good is called a gift, and to say that it is ugly is called a reward.

There is already a knighthood, so it is necessary to give it according to the convention of different titles.

Even now, only the king of Shu sends a gift with great fanfare, even if there are officials, it is also a bit conspicuous.

Will it make the person on the dragon chair suspicious?

The King of Shu thought about it and said, "I heard that he likes books, and I have a set of handwritten records of the prime minister of the previous dynasty, so I gave it to him." ”

The staff present all clicked, which is safe.

You only need to send someone to send a wooden box over, and besides, the matter of sending books has reached the ears of the emperor, and it is also a graceful thing for an uncle to send a set of books to his nephew, and it can't be related to other things.

"The ministers think it's very appropriate to send books, the prince is wise!"

"The prince is wise!"

Wanglufang Su Mansion

Because he had just moved in, although the former Chaoguo Mansion had been renovated and cleaned to be officially occupied, and the housekeepers and servants in the mansion were all available, the door plaque of this mansion was empty.

Su Ziji knew that giving the house was just a prelude, and he was afraid that he would be knighted next, and the plaque would have to be changed when he put it up, so he simply didn't let it go.

And whether you live in this Wanglufang, or are qualified to come to this Wanglufang Su Mansion, who doesn't know that there is a royal grandson living in this former Chaoguo Mansion that has been empty?

Where is the accounting more nuanced than this?

And when Su Ziji stayed in, from the early morning of the next day, some officials and servants came to give gifts one after another, and there was an endless stream of people who came to give gifts, which made the courtyard that had been empty for many years lively.

"This is the housekeeper of the Minister's Mansion, and he sent a gift on the orders of Lord He. ”

Seeing that two more ox carts had arrived, one after the other, their own servants led them over to register, and this time it was the people from the Mansion of Lord He of the Ministry of Justice.

Zhao Zhu, the current housekeeper of Sufu, heard about it, so he went over to greet the housekeeper who gave the gift, and the person who came to present the gift list and gifts together, and said goodbye very interestingly.

There are more than one or two people who come to give gifts, and each of them needs Zhao Zhu to greet him, that is, he has experience, and this meeting is enough for him to be busy.

Especially among the people who come to give gifts, there are some meritorious deeds, which are deeper than the background of civil officials, not to mention the offense, which one to make friends rashly is, it is easy to cause trouble, the more the housekeeper looks at this gift list, the more frightened he is, and he hurriedly came to the main courtyard to ask Su Ziji.

At this time, Su Ziji, dressed in a moon-white cotton robe and covered with a large coat on the outside, was looking at the frost and snow condensed on the branches and pondering, and turned back when he heard footsteps.

"What's wrong?" Su Ziji asked when he saw the housekeeper Zhao Zhu walking briskly with sweat on his forehead.
