Chapter 385: Emperors Are All Neurotic
The most on the side of the dock are still wine shops, and as soon as those passenger ships dock, the business is dozens or hundreds of people, making a lot of money!
Shen An and Zhao Zhongjun sat in the wine shop, and the two of them ordered tea and soup, plus some dry dishes.
"Why don't you just find something for his dad to do?"
Zhao Zhongjun said with confidence: "Working hard as a coolie, his father will definitely agree." ”
Shen An said noncommittally: "You can try it." ”
The cargo on the ship had almost been unloaded, and Zhao Zhongjun got up and walked over, his steps vigorous.
He just walked on his front foot, and the two men who were drinking at the table next to him looked over, and one of them was Zhang Banian.
Zhang Bannian came over and sat in Zhao Zhongjun's position just now, with a ghostly fire in his eyes, and asked, "I thought you would give him an idea." ”
Shen An took a sip of the teacup, frowned slightly, and said, "This is an opportunity for him to see the market, why would he interfere with him?" ”
"Insight?"
Zhang Bannian stretched out his hand and picked up a piece of dried fish, his lips moved slightly, "The world forgets righteousness when they see profit, and they see the benefits, will Su Yi still take it?" ”
"He's definitely not going to take it."
Shen An's words made Zhang Bannian smile, a very penetrating smile.
"What if he takes it?"
Shen An took a sip of tea, and then regretted it again, "I really don't like to drink tea cream!" ”
He put down the teacup, "If you take it, donate 5,000 yuan to Futian Temple." ”
"Good!"
Zhang Bannian said coldly: "If you don't take it, I owe you a favor." ”
"Your love...... That's it, it's still worth 5,000 yuan. ”
Shen An wanted to say that it was not worth it, but in the end he gave him a face.
The people of the Imperial City Division are not small, and they can save lives at critical moments.
……
After finishing the work, he was sore all over, and now he was sitting on the ground, with a bucket of cold boiled water beside him, and everyone drank it one after another.
Su Yan drank a bowl of water, then ate two cooking cakes with his father, and took out a book to read.
When he found out that there were more people around him, he remembered the agreement with Zhao Zhongjiao.
"I'm sorry ......"
"It's fine."
Zhao Zhongjun sat beside him, smiled at Su Yi on the side, and said, "Father and son have a lot of hard work here, if there is an easier job......
Su Yan was still a little confused, but Su Yi smiled and said, "Thank you......"
It's going to be a promise.
Zhao Zhongjun felt that this was an easy errand, so he smiled slightly.
"It's just that the villain is used to it."
Su Yi's words made Zhao Zhongyao's smile stiffen, he felt a little incredible, and thought it was embarrassing, so he said: "It's just a trivial matter, as long as you agree, you can go tomorrow, and the money will not be less." ”
Su Yi glanced at his son and said, "Thank you, although it is hard here, it is peaceful." ”
Then he persuaded him several times, but Su Yi just shook his head and refused.
What does that mean?
Is it a desire to get away with it?
Zhao Zhongjun went back with a confused face.
"Brother Anbei, why didn't he agree? Benefits of Door-to-Door Delivery...... And a certain person told him his identity in private, and Su Yi refused more and more resolutely. ”
Zhao Zhongjun was a little annoyed and shouted, "Bring the wine." ”
"Ass!"
Shen An stopped the guy and scolded: "A little thing makes you want to drown your sorrows with wine? Rubbish! ”
This was probably the first errand that Zhao Zhen gave to Zhao Zhongjun, but he messed up.
That sense of failure makes people frustrated, and then they want to get drunk and relieve their sorrows.
"If you want to figure this out, you have to think about people's hearts first, get out."
Shen An drove him away, and Zhang Banian sat down again.
"Just now someone was called to ...... tempted Su Yan with money, but the young man turned a blind eye...... Sure enough, he regards money as dung, no wonder the officials value him. ”
Zhang's eight-year analysis was met with laughter.
"Hahahaha!"
Shen An smiled and leaned back, and finally pounded the table, tears laughing out of his eyes.
Fortunately, there were no guests now, so the shopkeeper didn't interfere, but the guy came over to check the table as usual, and if it was smashed, he would definitely claim compensation.
Zhang Bannian's face was pale, the ghost fire in his eyes turned into wildfire, and the anger was gradually accumulating.
"What are you laughing at? Isn't it ridiculous? ”
Shen An gasped: "It's ridiculous...... I thought you had at least a little bit of understanding of human nature, but I didn't expect you to know nothing......"
Zhang Bannian said coldly: "A certain person only knows that human nature is cowardly, and in front of a certain person, a seemingly powerful person will only cry and beg, just want to die quickly." As for the human heart...... The human heart is vicious, like beasts. ”
Shen An looked at him and said regretfully: "You are black from the inside out, if a certain teacher sees you, he will definitely say that you must have suffered something bad when you were a teenager, so your personality is extreme......"
"Get out and talk!"
The two left the wine store and walked side by side.
"Your teacher...... Could such a person be in his eyes? ”
No matter how ruthless a person is, he has longings and weaknesses.
Shen An didn't know what Zhang Banian's weakness was, but obviously he also admired people with ability.
"I'm afraid it's hard."
He said casually: "The teacher never cares, what he cares about is the means." He often said that those who can solve things by the simplest means are geniuses, and those who solve problems with very flashy and admirable means are fools...... For example, the teacher said that so-and-so was a fool. ”
He looked at Zhang Bannian and said: "You don't understand the thoughts of the people at the bottom, so you use what you think is a very gorgeous means to tempt Su Yan, if he agrees, you will be proud in your hearts, and at the same time, you will despise him." But he didn't agree, but you were at a loss, and you speculated on his thoughts for yourselves, probably malicious......"
If the good intentions are not accepted, they will naturally be annoyed, and then speculate: this person is afraid that there is something wrong with his brain!
Zhang Bannian looked at him and said coldly: "What you like the most is to figure out people's hearts, so you are close to Bao Zheng and Ouyang Xiu, and you would even rather get close to the Zhe family than Sima Guang...... You could have approached Sima Guang at the beginning, but you refused. Do you think it's bad after figuring them out? So you're alienating them. ”
Shen An smiled dryly: "No. ”
He didn't like Sima Guang, because he couldn't get used to this person's appearance, and he couldn't get used to the anger that he had abolished all the innovations of Shenzong and Wang Anshi as soon as he came to power......
"Junzi respects him and is willing to associate with him. But the hypocrite is particularly disgusted. ”
Shen An got on the horse and left, and a subordinate said to Zhang Bannian: "Everyone knows that Sima Guang is a famous gentleman......
Zhang Bannian glanced at Su Yan's father and son, who were starting to carry life again, and said, "Gentleman...... Oh, yes! They all say that he is a gentleman. ”
He went all the way back to the palace, and Zhao Zhen was already waiting.
"Didn't make it?"
"Yes."
"Why?"
Zhao Zhen thought that they were not doing things well, so he was a little annoyed.
Zhang Bannian bowed his head and said: "Zhao Zhongjun said to find an easy job for Su Yi, but Su Yi refused. The minister sent someone to tempt Su Yan with money, but he avoided it like a snake and scorpion...... The minister is guilty. ”
He knelt on the ground, but Zhao Zhen smiled.
Why is that? Is it fear? ”
He glanced at Zhang Bannian and said, "The person you sent is fierce? But Zhao Zhongjun won't, why is that? ”
Zhang Bannian bowed his head and said: "The minister doesn't know, Shen An seems to know, but he refuses to say." ”
Zhao Zhen scolded: "Stubborn, call him!" ”
Then Shen An was called into the palace.
"I want to know why."
Is this to prepare for the cultivation of Su Yan?
Before the emperor wants to focus on cultivating a person, he must figure out his heart.
Shen An thought it was a big deal, so he sighed: "Your Majesty, it's just two sentences...... There will be no steamed buns in the sky; Sweat your own sweat and eat your own food. ”
Zhao Zhen shook his head and said, "Nonsense!" ”
He just thought about it, and then ordered: "Go to someone, I have to Su Yan have two friends in Taixue, tell them to ask, don't come back if you don't know what to ask." ”
The emperor was furious, and Zhang Banian immediately went to arrange this matter.
Shen An wanted to leave, but Zhao Zhen didn't agree.
He had a word of nonsense with Chen Zhongheng outside, thinking that Zhao Zhen was just looking for trouble.
Don't you just think that these courtiers are not honest, and then found a simple one, and gave himself a boy who learned to eat steamed buns too well, so he went online, and he had to cultivate that young man.
You cultivate, cultivate, the emperor's suspicion also makes you want to find out the heart of their father and son. If you have vanity and can be easily moved by money, this matter is estimated to be in vain again.
The emperor is a psychopath!
It would have been fine if Su Yi had agreed, but Zhang Banian clearly got Zhao Zhen's hint and used money to tempt Su Yan's kid to see if he had a firm position.
If I am firm, I will cultivate you, but if I am not firm...... Where to go back and forth.
The emperor rarely values anything because he thinks it is not worth it.
But once you value it, you are afraid of betrayal by the other party.
Driven by this mentality, Zhao Zhen's methods inevitably made some mistakes, which were seen by Shen An.
Zhao Zhongjun was worried that he had messed up his errand, but Zhao Zhen also failed.
Su Yan's father and son actually defeated the emperor and the future emperor......
Shen An just wanted to laugh and get drunk again.
Zhang Banian came back again, and Shen An had already eaten lunch and was sitting outside and napping.
"Your Majesty...... The two of them went, and Su Yan said that Shen An had taught him, and he would not be punished for nothing...... There will be no steamed buns in the sky......"
"Is that kid ruining my business?"
"No, Su Yi said that he worked hard to earn money to eat, so that he could feel at ease, otherwise he would not be able to sit still, eat well, and sleep poorly......"
"It's that simple? Well...... This is not what Shen An said......"
"Sweat your own sweat and eat your own food."
"Yes, how does he know what the people at the bottom think?"
"The minister guessed that it was...... Talent bar. ”
"Talent...... But why are there so many greedy people? ”
"Yes, Su Yan is honest and honest, Su Yi is duty, but it is rare."
"Yes, if such a person is common, what do I value him to do? Hahahaha! ”
Shen An heard these words, and Zhao Zhen called him in later.
"You have to keep an eye on Su Yan's studies, and how do you conclude that Su Yi's father and son are unwilling to agree?"
No matter how merciful the emperor is, he is also the darling of suspicion.
Shen An said: "Su Yan has passed the liberation test, and it stands to reason that he is a serious scholar, most of these people don't do anything in ordinary people's homes, and they specialize in reading and preparing for exams." But Su Yi was willing to let him do coolies, which shows that he is not a person with strong vanity...... If the vanity is not strong, he naturally refuses to accept the blame for nothing. ”
"It's that simple?"
Zhao Zhen was still suspicious.
Shen An smiled bitterly: "Official, don't look down on the people in the market, they also have their own dignity, under those flattering smiles, it's just a compromise on life." ”
Zhao Zhen fell silent......
