Chapter 986: Temptation (continued)

(Thanks to acxld\/bobby75222 for the monthly pass.) Say it to my brothers, if there is no accident, this book will end at the end of the month, what type of book do you want to see in the next book, you can leave a message to me. )

Su Jin smiled and said: "The king wants the minister to die, the minister has to die, if the emperor really wants to believe him, at this moment, Manager Huang is not empty-handed, I'm afraid he wants to bring a pot of poisonous wine; Therefore his words are not credible without verification; If the Xia Kingdom and the Uighur Tubo really had an abnormal attempt, I, Su Jin, would be the first to lead troops to exterminate him, and whoever dared to touch a finger of my Great Song Dynasty would ruin his life. ”

Huang Peisheng smacked his lips and said: "Lord Su is loyal to the country and open-minded, Zhang Yaozuo will die of shame when he knows it; Now that my lord has made up my mind, I am also relieved, maybe there will be a court discussion between the court and China in the next few days, and my lord will decide at his own discretion that I can't come out for too long, I have to go back to the palace, and I will leave. ”

Su Jin got up and bowed and saluted: "Thank you for your care, Su Jin is really grateful, the road is slippery after the snow, the manager should be careful on the road, I will wrap a bag of good tea for you to bring." ”

Huang Peisheng laughed and said, "Then I will be disrespectful and leave." Su Jin personally opened the hall door for him, sent him to the gate of the mansion, and watched him board the carriage and leave, then he slowly paced back with a gloomy face.

In the study, Su Jin summoned Wang Dynasty, Ma Han, Zhang Long, Zhao Hu and others to report the matter, and several ladies also hurried to inquire about the reason, Su Jin told everyone what Huang Peisheng said, everyone was shocked, Ma Han Zhao Hu and others If it weren't for the presence of several housewives, I am afraid that they would have been scolding with foul language long ago.

"Duanyun, Ahri, what's going on in the Xia Kingdom? You also often go to the Xia Kingdom, does the Queen Mother really have an idea? If it was true, she would be stupid. Su Jin frowned and asked.

Ahri said uneasily: "The slave family doesn't know whether it's true or not, the slave family has never been very concerned about these things, husband, think of a way, if the Great Song Dynasty really wants to attack my Xia Kingdom, then how can it be good." ”

Yeli Duanyun bit his lip and said: "I dare to conclude that this matter is ninety percent false, the Xia State expanded its troops last year in order to deal with the nuisance of the Tibetans and Uighurs, which the husband also knows, but the expansion of the army is only within 400,000, which is within the scope allowed by the Great Song Dynasty, and there is not a single soldier in addition to this; The Queen Mother would not be so stupid, she put the thighs of the Song State and did not hug them, but went to unite with some Uighur Tubo; The matter of the iron trade must be nonsense, Xia Guo's own iron tools are in short supply, and the iron tools that the husband agreed to ban on export are only limited to pig iron farm tools, and the quantity is also limited, where is the surplus iron tools supplied to other countries? This must be a rumor-mongering. ”

Su Jin waved his hand and said: "Don't jump to conclusions, there is no right to speak without investigation, Duanyun put aside the matter at hand, go back to Xia Country a year ago, and convey my meaning to the Queen Mother, I must quickly find out this matter, if not, then it is best, if there is, I want her to stop quickly, and I want to come to Bianliang to explain to the emperor; This kind of thing must not happen, you must understand that the DPRK and China have long had a motion to include the Xia Kingdom in the territory, and with the current strength of the Great Song Dynasty, the destruction of Xia is within a snap of a finger; The reason why I didn't do it was not because I was on stage, and Ahri and Duanyun were party members, so everyone saved me some face; But there are many face-saving people, and there are many people who find faults, and once I catch the handle, I can't come out and speak, and then I will even get into it, you know? ”

Yeli Duanyun nodded and said: "The concubine body understands, the concubine body will leave tomorrow, and the self-helper will be helped, if the aunt and cousin don't want to live themselves, we can't help them anymore." ”

Ahri said with tears in her eyes: "Cousin, persuade them well, tell them not to be confused, and don't make it difficult for your husband." ”

Yeli Duanyun nodded and said, "Don't worry, I believe that our Yeli family will not do stupid things." ”

Wang Chao said: "Prince, what do you say about Zhang Yaozuo and Han Jiang slandering your high merit?" Why don't I go and talk to Mr. Bao and give him a good look tomorrow morning. ”

Ma Han said: "Yes, if Lao Tzu doesn't fan tomorrow, his parents don't know him, so I won't be surnamed Ma." ”

Zhang Long and Zhao Hu also made noise, and Su Jin scolded: "You want to make trouble if you want the prince to finish as soon as possible!" Zhang Yaozuo, I can't help him, how many of you will do it? ”

Ma Han said: "Isn't he the emperor's uncle?" What's the big deal! Why did the emperor ignore the hard work of the prince and listen to the words of this birdman! Just find an opportunity to slaughter these two birds with one sword. ”

Su Jin glared and said, "Shut up, Hugh has to talk nonsense, do you think anyone can slaughter a hundred with one sword?" What am I working so hard for? In order to mess up the Great Song? Got people scared? It is not unreasonable to say his words again, I should have thought of this section, whether the emperor believes it or not, he always planted a seed in his heart; And I have indeed been too involved in the past few years, and I have not taken into account the emperor's feelings; After all, the emperor is the emperor, we always have to do things under his nose, we think that the world belongs to the people, and the emperor must think that the world belongs to him alone, this is the contradiction. ”

Everyone was silent, Yan Biyun said softly: "Husband, don't worry, this is not the first time this kind of thing has happened, the emperor will be aware of everything, and he will not be because of Zhang Yaozuo and Han Jiang's words; This incident also reminded us that the husband can think more from the emperor's point of view in the future, and try to avoid it. ”

Su Jin nodded and said, "It seems that we are really looking for some way back, hey, I'm so tired!" ”

Zhao Hu said: "This time, thanks to Mr. Huang, I didn't expect Mr. Huang to be a friend to the son, and he rushed to report the news." ”

Everyone nodded, and Su Jin sneered: "Enough friends, how can there be such a good thing, don't you see it?"

Everyone: "What? ”

Su Jindao: "Huang Peisheng is a person close to the emperor, he does have a good relationship with me, but he will never take such a big risk for me, my friendship with him is far from that step; What a shrewd person the emperor is, who are the people around him to befriend, and what kind of people he has a relationship with? If Huang Peisheng really had a deep friendship with me and was willing to take risks for me, then he would have been slaughtered by the emperor a long time ago, how could the emperor allow the existence of ears and eyes around him? ”

Everyone was stunned and said, "Then what is he doing here?" Could it be ......?"

Su Jin said: "If it is as I expected, it should be that the emperor deliberately asked him to listen to my tone, and only by disguising himself as a messenger can he get out what I am saying; So I reprimanded the dynasty just now, because I was afraid that the dynasty would not pay attention to what he said and omitted it. ”

Wang Chao said ashamedly: "I'm sorry for the son, I almost fell for that eunuch." ”

Yan Biyun pondered: "If according to what the husband said, Huang Peisheng came to listen to the tone on the order of the emperor, wouldn't it mean that the emperor was suspicious of the husband?" ”

Xia Siling said: "Yes, wouldn't that be bad, the emperor was suspicious of his husband, and he must have believed Zhang Yaozuo's nonsense." ”

Su Jin sneered: "The emperor is suspicious of anyone, let alone me; Whether Zhang Yaozuo goes or not, he will doubt me; I even think he sometimes doubts himself; It's just that the emperor is quite self-contained, he won't easily stab it, he likes to take a detour, even if he wants to do it himself, he will hint that others will do it for him, which is why he risked everyone's opposition to promote Zhang Yaozuo. Do you think he doesn't know that Zhang Yaozuo is a mediocre talent? He knew very well in his heart that it was this kind of person that he could achieve his goal by hinting at his actions, Du Yan back then, and Zhang Yaozuo now are all such people. ”

Yeli Duanyun said: "I don't understand, why did the emperor do this, didn't he want the court to unite and make the country stronger and richer?" ”

Su Jin said: "Of course he wants to, and he wants it more than anyone else; But as a shrewd emperor, he not only hopes that he can be subjugated from all over the world during his reign, he also hopes that all this is his own credit, and when someone takes his credit, he will also be uncomfortable, which is the contradiction in his character. ”

Wang Chao and the others couldn't understand what Su Jin was trying to express, but Yan Biyun's words gave a good summary: "In other words, the emperor not only wants the country to be rich and strong, but also wants everyone to recognize that this is his governance work, right?" The slave family really doesn't understand, he is already the master of the world, so why should he covet these credits, it's really strange. ”

Su Jin said: "This is why some people have no desires, some people compete for fame, some people have more profits, and some people prefer fame and fortune; For now, it is certain that the emperor will be dissatisfied with me, but I don't think there is too much to worry about how serious it is, he is testing my reaction, if I show the slightest disrespect, he will hit me mercilessly, Han Fan and others have a precedent, I will never doubt that he will find another hat or something else to buckle for me; It's chilling to think about. ”

"Husband, let's not resign, our family's net worth, we don't have to worry about eating and drinking for ten lifetimes, why bother with his anger." Ahri said innocently.

Su Jin smiled and said: "The world is big, it is the emperor's territory, he wants to trouble you, whether you are an official or not, he will trouble you; Besides, I still have a lot of things to do, and when I'm done with everything I want to do, I'll find a way. ”

Everyone heard that Su Jin's words seemed to have the meaning of retreat, and they were all surprised, the prince is in full swing, it is the time to show his ambitions, will he really choose to let go? And as he himself said, the world is so big, where can he go to live?
