Chapter 397: Lobbyist

Han Jianming looked at the snowflakes falling outside and said, "Since last year, there have been several snowfalls. ”

Han Hao said: "Fortunately, it doesn't snow for a long time every time. "The longest of these snowfalls is only one day and one night, and if it is three days and three nights, it will be a catastrophe.

Han Jianming snorted, but even if it wasn't long, the people's lives were not easy.

Han Hao hesitated for a moment and said, "Grandpa Guo, there is a problem with the porridge field of the Marquis of Changping. Someone ate the porridge of the Marquis of Changping and died. "Every year, big families go to soup kitchens. The Marquis of Changping is naturally among them.

Han Jianming asked with a cold face, "What's the matter?"

The porridge in Changping Houfu Shi is all old rice several years ago, and some of them are moldy. People who are not in good health eat this porridge, where is there still life. Even if you don't use new rice, you can't use moldy old rice for porridge. I want fame, but I am reluctant to pay, where is there such a good thing.

After listening to Han Hao's words, Han Jianming's hand was on the table, and after a moment of silence, he said, "The Zhou family, there is no cure. ”

Han Hao listened and said: "Grandpa Guo, he is in charge of the affairs to fill his own pockets, and he has exchanged ordinary old rice for this moldy rice that no one eats. There has been an impeachment of the Zhou family in the imperial history. "I was not greedy enough, but I didn't expect that I would eat the dead and make such a big noise.

Han Jianming snorted coldly, too lazy to evaluate how the Zhou family was. Anyway, he is keeping filial piety, and the Zhou family can't ask him for something. Han Jianming said to Han Hao: "You go and check the rice in our porridge field, if anyone dares to make a mistake, come and return to me immediately." ”

Han Gao said: "Don't worry, Grandpa Guo, I just went to check, and all the rice in our porridge field is new rice, and there is not a single grain of old rice." "The housekeeper of the Qiu family has been so many years, how can he not know this bit of cattiness. Therefore, every year the soup kitchen will send someone to supervise, and the person sent is different every time. The people involved don't have a chance to do anything if they want to.

Han Jianming was just opening his mouth to speak, and the little guy outside said that the big housekeeper was coming. Han Jianming said: "Let the big housekeeper come in." ”

The chief housekeeper handed Han Jianming a letter in double numbers and said, "Grandpa Guo, this is sent by the eldest master of the Yu family." ”

Han Jianming immediately took it and read the letter as quickly as possible. After reading it, his eyes showed joy, and he said: "Good ......" After saying this good word, Han Jianming immediately asked Han Gao to invite Mr. Zhao over.

After reading the letter written by the eldest man of the Yu family, Mr. Zhao said: "The Yu family took the initiative to show favor to the fourth aunt, which shows that they are imperative to cooperate. The eldest man of the Yu family told Han Jianming in the letter that this time the Yu family would come forward to solve the Song family's detention of Yunqing's military merits and prevent him from being promoted, which is equivalent to saying that Yunqing is going to be promoted.

In the army, the third rank only belongs to the middle-level generals, and the second-rank and above belong to the high-level generals. Yunqing's promotion is a gesture of goodwill to the Yu family, and it is also the attitude of the Yu family, that is, this cooperation cannot be refused by Yunqing again.

Han Jianming said: "There is definitely no problem with cooperation. However, the Yu family had been waiting for Yunqing to compromise unhurriedly before, and this time they took the initiative to show favor that something had happened. ”

Mr. Zhao said: "His Royal Highness the eldest grandson is gone, although the crown princess is pregnant, but it is not clear whether the man is a woman or not, and the Yu family is a little anxious." ”

Han Jianming shook his head and said, "Although Yu Xiang is already sixty years old, his body is tough, and it is no problem to live for another ten or eight years." Therefore, it is impossible for the Yu family to be anxious because His Royal Highness the eldest grandson is gone. There should be other reasons as well. ”

Mr. Zhao thought for a while and said, "Grandpa Guo, do you say that the Yu family wants to win over Yunqing will be known by the prince." The prince doesn't want the Yu family to become more powerful, and he also wants to win over Yunqing to be known by the people of the Yu family? The prince occupies the righteousness, and he is the prince, if the prince wants to win over Yunqing, Yunqing will abandon his family and take refuge in the prince. That's why they can't wait so much?" The prince's biggest supporters are the Yu family and the Song family, but the biggest resistance is also these two families. Since the crown prince was canonized, he has always wanted to seize power from the Yu family and the Song family, but he has been repeatedly frustrated, so the prince has to attract more power on the one hand, and prevent the two families from expanding their power on the other.

Hearing this, Han Jianming thought for a while and said, "It's not impossible for the prince to want to win over Yunqing. Qin Zhao's flattery is not bad, but he is not incapable of fighting, and a discerning person knows at a glance that he will not be a general for long. "Qin Zhao is a general, not a marshal, even if the Song family had the intention to support it, it would be useless. This marshal did not have enough prestige and military merits, and the people below were not convinced at all.

Mr. Zhao said: "Grandpa Guo, do you think Yunqing will agree?" Yunqing's temperament, everyone can guess according to some of the things he has done. Therefore, if the prince is to win over Yunqing, it is really not impossible.

Grandpa Guo shook his head and said, "No." Yuxi knows the details of the prince, and she will not let Yunqing take refuge in the prince. "The prince can betray the country for his own interests, how can such a prince be trusted. Who knows if the people below will have to be sacrificed for the sake of profit in the future. With Yuxi here, the prince wants to win over Yunqing, and he wants to be in the soup 100%.

Mr. Zhao smiled, he forgot about the four girls: "Grandpa Guo, we know that there are four girls, and the fourth aunt will not take refuge in the prince, but the Yu family doesn't know." We can take this opportunity to fight for more benefits. "It would be foolish to miss such an opportunity.

Han Jianming snorted and said, "Yuxi's letter will arrive in early February at the latest, and we have enough time." "Not only should Yunqing seek the greatest benefit from it, but they should also seek benefits from it, so that it can be a win-win situation.

The eldest man of the Yu family sent a letter to Han Jianming, but he couldn't hide it from the prince and King Jing. The crown prince and King Jing said: "Yu Xiang has already made a break, saying that he will reward those meritorious ministers fairly and justly. This matter cannot be suppressed, and the holy decree will be issued in these two days. "Yunqing's accumulated military merits are very great, if it weren't for the suppression of the Song family, after the death of Marshal Qin two years ago, Yunqing would have taken the throne. Now Yu Xiang took out Yunqing's military exploits and said that he wanted to reward his merits, and no one could refute it, even if he was the prince. If you can't reward meritorious deeds on the bright side, it will not only be cold to the hearts of 100,000 soldiers in the northwest, but also the hearts of more than 100,000 soldiers in Liaodong.

King Jing said: "Big brother, don't worry, the Yu family has long wanted to return to Yunqing, and the year before last, let people contact Yunqing, but was rejected by Yunqing." "The so-called fathers and sons go into battle, and they fight tigers and brothers. The relationship between the two brothers has always been very good, especially the prince is now in such a difficult situation, and he needs the help of his brothers. King Jing is also a good brother and has always been on the side of the prince.

The prince shook his head and said, "This time and that time. "Although he is the crown prince, the power of the Yu family is greater than him, and he has to compromise and comply with some things, so the prince is not confident that Yunqing will take refuge in him. It's like in the court now, many officials only listen to Yu Xiang, and don't listen to him as a prince at all.

King Jing pondered for a moment and then said, "Then we will send someone to contact Yunqing." The eldest brother wants to win over, and I believe Yunqing will not refuse. ”

The prince nodded and said, "I'm going to send Du Wenwen." By the way, your princess has always been close to Yunqing's wife. "What the prince means is that the effect will be better if you do it both ways.

King Jing is not stupid, he naturally knows what the prince means, and nodded in agreement: "Big brother, I'll tell the princess when I go back." "This is preparing for Yuchen to be a lobbyist.

When he returned to the palace, King Jing told Yuchen about this: "You have always had a good relationship with the fourth sister, and she should listen to your words." ”

Yuchen was slightly shocked, but she knew that King Jing was not asking for her opinion, but ordering her to do so. smiled and said, "Okay, I'll write a letter to the fourth sister later, and I'll show it to the prince when it's done." If the prince thinks it's okay, he will send it to the northwest. ”

King Jing nodded and said, "Okay, tomorrow you will send the letter to the study." After that, he went to the study in the front yard. Recently, the Yu family and the Song family have had a serious fight, and King Jing has no leisure.

After everyone left, there was only Mama Gui left in the house. Yuchen laughed and said to Gui Mama: "How did Yuxi marry to the northwest at that time, have they all forgotten?" At that time, Yuxi was forced to run out of life, and now they want her to be a lobbyist and persuade Yuxi to let Yunqing take refuge in the prince, they feel that Yuxi is so forgetful.

Mama Gui said: "If it were someone else, for the sake of righteousness, they might not care about the past. But the four girls ......"

Yuchen stood up and walked out of the window, and said for a long time: "With Yuxi's temperament, not only will he not persuade Yunqing to join the prince to serve the prince, but it will prevent Yunqing from joining the prince and persuade Yunqing to cooperate with the Yu family." "I was almost killed by Song Guifei twice in a row, and finally married to the barren land in the northwest, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a deep feud in the sea of blood. Unless it is the Virgin, who will let his husband help the son of the enemy. Not to mention, Yunqing and the Song family still have a deep blood feud!

Mama Gui thought about something else, and said, "Niangniang, how long did you say that the fourth girl has been married to Yunqing?" Qin Zhao couldn't hold Yunqing down. "The first two years have been good, but Qin Zhao can't suppress Yunqing in just half a year, and without the handwriting of the four girls, she definitely doesn't believe it.

Yuchen sighed and said, "You may not know that Yuxi founded a school in Yucheng to collect the children of the dead and wounded soldiers. Let them be fed and clothed in winter, and they can also study and practice martial arts. It doesn't cost much to set up such a school, but it can get a good reputation. "Establishing a school to teach those children to read and practice martial arts is more famous and grateful than directly giving rice and noodles.

When Mama Gui heard this, she said, "The fourth girl helped those children, not only to earn fame for herself, but also to buy people's hearts for Yunqing. There are four girls in Yunqing who will be whitewashed sooner or later. ”

Yuchen said in a low voice: "In the mansion before, she didn't show anything and was always patient. Now that I have arrived in the northwest, I don't need to be patient anymore, and I can do whatever I want. What she'll do next, I can't guess. She actually envied Yuxi, although the northwest was poor in materials, people were free. is not like her, who has fine clothes and food every day, but this palace is like a cage, so trapped that she can't take a step......

Mama Gui hesitated for a moment and said, "Niangniang, do you want to tell the prince about these things!"

Yuchen shook his head and said, "What are you talking about?" Say that Yuxi will repay her eyes, because she is jealous of Song Guifei, so she won't let Yunqing help the crown prince?

Mama Gui listened and didn't speak again. R1148
