"It's just that Lord Zhao is suddenly so kind, but it makes the old man a little uncomfortable. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info"
As he spoke, Huang Yourong stared at Zhao Junchen with blazing eyes, and did not let go of any change in Zhao Junchen's expression.
However, Zhao Junchen's expression did not change in the slightest, he still smiled calmly and had an indifferent attitude, and said with a smile: "The younger generation has always been kind to Senior Huang, but in the past, due to the situation, this kind of kindness could not be expressed, but now that I finally have an opportunity, I naturally will not miss it." ”
After a pause, Zhao Junchen said again: "What's more, when there was friction between the juniors and the 'Zhou Party', Senior Huang also secretly helped, and the juniors promised Senior Huang at that time, saying that they would definitely repay them in the future, at least the family wealth that Senior Huang gave to His Majesty, the juniors will help you recover your losses through other means, and what the juniors have done now is also to realize the original promise...... Although the younger generation is not a good person, most of the time they still keep their promises. ”
After hearing Zhao Junchen's explanation, a trace of surprise flashed in Huang Yourong's eyes.
At the beginning, the "Zhao Party" and the "Zhou Party" in order to compete for cabinet seats, there was some friction, compared with the deep-rooted "Zhou Party", the "Zhao Party" unexpectedly fell behind, but Zhao Junchen at this time was a different way, secretly joined forces with Huang Yourong, and used Huang Yourong's residual influence on the "Shen Party" to involve the "Shen Party" in the conflict, and finally made this party struggle more and more fierce, forcing Emperor Deqing to stop it in time, and because of this, the "Zhao Party" In this party struggle with a huge disparity in strength, he did not suffer too much.
At that time, Zhao Junchen persuaded Huang Yourong to help on the condition that he would help Huang Yourong get out of the temple, and after Huang Yourong gave his life savings to Emperor Deqing, Zhao Junchen would help Huang Yourong recover his losses.
However, at that time, Huang Yourong's position in the temple was quite embarrassing, and he would be attacked by hundreds of officials every day, and he might be questioned by Emperor Deqing when he would be blamed.
In the end, after the party dispute between the "Zhao Party" and the "Zhou Party" came to an end, Zhao Junchen gave Huang Yourong's life savings to Emperor Deqing as an intermediary, and Huang Yourong finally got out of the temple as he wished.
At this point, half of Zhao Junchen's promise to Huang Yourong has been fulfilled, but Huang Yourong originally did not expect Zhao Junchen to really fulfill the other half of his promise.
After all, Huang Yourong's life savings are enough to save millions of taels of silver, if Zhao Junchen wants to help Huang Yourong recover his losses, he needs to help Huang Yourong find a way to make money for millions of taels of silver - this is not a small number, if Zhao Junchen really has this kind of money, whether it is used to strengthen his own strength or to buy friends and people, it is far more appropriate than giving it to Huang Yourong - Huang Yourong is used to treating people with himself, and he is used to seeing treacherous villains, thinking that Zhao Junchen will definitely be perfunctory in this regard.
Therefore, after Huang Yourong learned that Zhao Junchen recommended him to become the minister of the Imperial Mission today, he never thought about it, and subconsciously did not think that Zhao Junchen was keeping his promise, but thought that Zhao Junchen had some bad idea and planned to use himself again, so he hurried to Zhao Mansion to find out Zhao Junchen's intentions.
But he never thought that Zhao Junchen still remembered this promise, and he really planned to fulfill it!
Investigating and arresting Su Changzhen and participating in the establishment ceremony of the "United Boat Trip" held by the Hui merchants as a special envoy of the imperial court, if these two things are handled properly, they can make up for most of Huang Yourong's losses.

After hearing Zhao Junchen's reply, Huang Yourong still felt a little incredible.
"Really?" Huang Yourong asked hesitantly.
Zhao Junchen nodded, his face full of sincerity, and said, "That's true!" But...... As the juniors just said, the juniors' kindness to Senior Huang has always existed, so the juniors hope that the cooperation between us can be longer. ”
As he spoke, Zhao Junchen's tone was meaningful.
Obviously, Zhao Junchen intends to take the opportunity to win over Huang Yourong - although Huang Yourong has retired, as a former cabinet elder, he still has great use value.
A sneer flashed in Huang Yourong's eyes, and he knew that Zhao Junchen's intention was not just to fulfill his original promise.
After officially withdrawing from the temple battle, Huang Yourong's vision as an outsider became more and more keen, and after reviewing Zhao Junchen's rise in recent years, he spoke highly of Zhao Junchen's scheming methods and political vision, thinking that Zhao Junchen was a pure politician, and he would definitely not be wronged if he lost to Zhao Junchen.
Therefore, a pure politician like Zhao Junchen may keep his promise in some irrelevant and convenient things, but if huge interests are involved, Zhao Junchen will never hesitate when he breaks his promise. Today, Zhao Junchen is willing to give Huang Yourong such a big benefit, absolutely just because Zhao Junchen expects to reap greater benefits from Huang Yourong!
Thinking of this, Huang Yourong's expression became a little vigilant, and said, "Oh? In any case, the old man can become the minister of the Qincha, all thanks to the full support of Lord Zhao, even if it is just to fulfill the original promise, the old man is also grateful, if the old man is in the period of serving as the Qincha, Lord Zhao, you need the help of the old man, as long as it is within the scope of the old man's ability, the old man will never have any excuses...... It's just ......"
Speaking of this, Huang Yourong's tone was serious, and he slowly added: "After the old man has dealt with the matter of Su Changzhen and the United Boat Company, he will no longer be the minister of the Qincha, and he will just be an old man with no power and no power, and Lord Zhao, you are now in a strong position, but the old man does not dare to climb high, so things like long-term cooperation, I'm afraid it's better to forget it." ”
Obviously, after Huang Yourong got out of the temple, he was no longer willing to get involved in the partisan struggle in the imperial court, and after finding out that Zhao Junchen had other plans for him, he decisively expressed his refusal.
Of course, Huang Yourong still doesn't plan to let go of the fat difference that Zhao Junchen gave him, so he will only cooperate with Zhao Junchen to a limited extent during his tenure as the minister of the Imperial Mission.
On the other hand, hearing Huang Yourong's refusal, Zhao Junchen did not show any unhappiness, and seemed to have expected Huang Yourong's attitude.
"If the seniors Huang are not willing to cooperate for a long time, it doesn't matter, the juniors naturally dare not be reluctant." Zhao Junchen said with a warm smile: "It's just that during your tenure as the minister of the Imperial Mission, Senior Huang, there are some things that still need a lot of help from Senior Huang. ”
This time, Huang Yourong did not refuse, but just nodded and said: "Lao Yu has already said it just now, this minister was originally given to Lao Yu by Lord Zhao, and Lao Yu also understands the truth of Entubao, if Lord Zhao has any instructions in this matter, even if he says it, Lao Yu will naturally do his best at that time." ”
Zhao Junchen nodded with a smile and said, "If that's the case, the junior will not be polite." First of all, Su Changyi's matter, the younger generation hopes that when you go to Nanzhili to investigate and arrest Su Changyi, you can bring Gu Quan, the left of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, with you, after all, Su Changzhen is a feudal official, and the case is more complicated, with only Huang senior's words, I am afraid it will be a little powerless to deal with such a big case, and Gu Quangu has served in the third division for many years and has rich experience, if he is assisted by the side, presumably Huang senior can also be a lot easier. ”
After hearing Zhao Junchen's request, Huang Yourong first pondered for a moment, and then nodded in agreement: "What Lord Zhao said is reasonable, Su Changyi's case is indeed not something that can be handled properly by the old man, if there is Lord Gu Quan on the side to help, it is naturally the best." ”
Huang Yourong understands that Zhao Junchen placed Gu Quan by his side because he wanted to get a piece of Su Changyi's case, and Huang Yourong did not object to this, after all, "everyone carries a sedan chair" is a officialdom practice, and what he loses in the end is not his own interests.
Then, Zhao Junchen said: "In addition, it is the matter of 'United Boat Travel'!" After the establishment of the 'United Shipping Company', although many Huizhou businessmen enthusiastically joined, a large number of Huizhou businessmen refused the invitation of the younger generation, not only did not join the 'United Shipping Company', but were hostile and secretly made bad ......."
Speaking of this, a trace of coldness flashed on Zhao Junchen's seemingly plain face, and he continued: "Therefore, the juniors hope that when Senior Huang participates in the 'United Boat Trip', he can help the juniors eradicate these Hui merchants who don't know the current affairs one by one!" The specific details are already well arranged, but you still need a character like Senior Huang to preside over the overall situation! Although Senior Huang is now a Zhishi, with your means, it must be more than enough to rectify some eye-catching Hui merchants. ”
