Chapter 779: Face Saint 1
Su Ren took his family to Chang'an all day long, and kept silent about going to see the emperor. Seeing that it was about to get dark, Su Ren took the family back to his home in Chang'an, and after settling down, he went out to Jianzhang Palace.
When Su Ren came, Liu Jiqing was standing at the gate of the palace, his face was not good: "General Su's shelf is really big, the servants have been waiting here for a day, can General Su's Chang'an trip be enjoyable?" ”
"It's fine!" threw the paper bag in his hand into Liu Jiqing's arms: "I passed by the braised meat shop, I thought it was good, so I bought some, let people cut it and send it to the Xuan room, I want to drink with His Majesty!" ”
Liu Jiqing smiled bitterly, handed the paper bag to the chamberlain behind him, and dodged out of the way: "General Su, please, Your Majesty has been waiting for you for a day!" ”
At the palace at night, Su Ren came for the first time. The eerie and terrifying way is the most appropriate to describe, the long corridor is only five feet wide, and there are walls several feet high on both sides, which is a little depressing to walk in during the day, let alone at night, a few chamberlains carrying lanterns on both sides add a bit of weirdness. Because it was night, the palace doors on both sides of the road had already been closed, and there was no sound quietly, and a wild cat barked that gave Su Ren goosebumps all over his body.
There was only a faint light in the Xuan room, and the Imperial Forest Army stood outside the door in high spirits. Liu Jiqing glanced at Su Ren, Su Ren stopped and watched Liu Jiqing go in to report.
"Let him get in, I have to wait for a day!" There was a roar in the Xuan room, and Su Ren could see the sympathetic glances of the Imperial Forest Army at him.
When Su Ren was about to go in, he happened to run into the waiter who came over with a tray. Su Ren glanced at it, it was the sauce meat he brought, and then reached out to take it. The chamberlain was startled and knelt on the ground and looked at Liu Jiqing. Liu Jiqing didn't speak, and the waiter hurriedly retreated. Liu Che was alone in the Xuan room, and there were several thick stacks of folds on the table, and Liu Che was lying on the table and was covered by the folds.
Liu Jiqing didn't follow up, stood at the door and motioned for the little waiter inside to go out, and then gently pushed out himself to close the door. He knew very well that the emperor was by no means angry with Su Ren, who had been by the emperor's side for so many years, from the first emperor to the current emperor, Liu Jiqing had such self-confidence.
Su Ren put the tray on the small table in the store, pinched a piece with his hand and stuffed it into his mouth, strolled over and stretched his neck to watch Liu Che's criticism: "Jingzhou flood? There are so many people dead, that Taishou should be killed! ”
Liu Che rolled his eyes, finished writing the fold in three or two clicks, and closed it heavily: "The floods in Jingzhou are all because there are too many rivers, and there is no way to do it, and then the Jiangling area is even stricter, and I am strange It stands to reason that your Jiangsu city is really built on a swamp, why haven't you heard about floods?" ”
Su Ren laughed: "Jiangsu City is built with stone as the base, Shengsheng is one zhang higher than the surrounding area, not to mention that I also dredged the river and repaired Poyang Lake, the foundation cost of building Jiangsu City is twice as expensive as building the city, which is the reason why there is no flood." ”
"Do you want me to order the rebuilding of the cities of Xiangyang and Nanyang?"
Su Ren hurriedly shook his head: "The minister never has that mind, not to mention that His Majesty's mind is also in the north now, and he will not use the money from the treasury in this place, and it is not a trivial matter to renovate the Jingzhou City, and the need for 100,000 people to be relocated is enough for the entire imperial court to be busy, rather than using these things to stumble His Majesty's hands and feet, it is better to dredge the river." ”
Liu Che got up slowly, walked around a few cases and walked to the small table where Su Ren had set up food and sat down, reached out and grabbed a piece of braised pork and stuffed it into his mouth, and smashed it twice: "Yes, it should be the old man's family in Wicker Lane, and it should be good to have another pot of wine at this time." ”
Su Ren consciously sat opposite Liu Che, took out a pot of wine like a trick, Liu Che reached out and grabbed it, poured it into the spout, and let out a long breath: "Comfortable!" It's been a long time since I've drunk like this, but it's a pity that it's just a pot, so I won't have so many things to worry about, I want to ...... back then"
"Stop!" Without waiting for Liu Che to finish speaking, Su Ren stretched out his hand to stop: "Don't complain, the emperor must have the consciousness of the emperor, since he enjoys the right to be injured by mistake, he must pay the corresponding responsibility, Mencius has a saying that fish and bear paws are invisible, this is the truth." ”
Liu Che laughed twice and put down the wine jug: "Fish, I want it, bear paws, I also want it, you can't have both, give up the fish and take the bear's paw, Mencius teaches people to be good, you understand it like this, it seems that what your father-in-law said is not needed, you just don't know what you don't know." ”
Su Ren said: "Learning is understood by oneself, I understand that a sentence means like this, what is strange for others to understand it like that?" If everyone in the world understands the same, wouldn't it be meaningless at all, let alone progress. ”
"This is the original intention of you to start Louguan Academy?"
Su Ren shook his head: "Louguan Academy is His Majesty's Academy, I am a janitor and money-maker, I have been gone for a year and the academy is still operating normally, I believe that even if I die, the academy will be safe!" Speaking of Louguan Academy, have you ever been there for more than a year? ”
Liu Che nodded: "I've been there a few times, I was going to listen to what those gentlemen you got were taught, but I was blasted out by your father-in-law, and I put up with it for the sake of your face, if he had no courage like that at the beginning." ”
"Hahaha......" Su Ren smiled very presumptuously: "I didn't expect it, I really didn't expect that my father-in-law would dare to bombard His Majesty, it seems that he has no pressure to teach me a lesson." ”
Liu Che also smiled: "However, I still know that although the academy cannot teach erudite Confucianism, it can lead in a certain field, take Han Anguo as an example, in this battle of Mayi, many of his subordinates are his students in the academy, from the supply of ordnance to the formulation of the battle plan, Han Anguo saved a lot of heart, which ensured the victory of the battle of Mayi." ”
"Isn't it my greatest credit?"
Liu Che pouted: "Don't put gold on your face, I know everything, I was going to go to Yu Shan to lobby, but I was arrested by Yi Zhixie, if it wasn't for Yu Shan to find a military minister, you would probably die of old age in Yin Mountain, but you put away the Taihang thieves for your use I still agree with it, but can the remnants of that Ebony Cliff rest assured?" ”
Su Ren shook his head: "That guy is a war maniac, in his eyes there is only war, so I asked him to go all the way to the west, hoping that he and the Huns can fight to the death, but unfortunately he still miscalculated a move, I don't know how he got a guy named Zhao Xin, that guy has some brains." Seeing that Liu Che was only concerned about eating meat, Su Ren instantly understood: "You arranged it?" ”
Liu Che said with a smile while chewing the meat: "You are a little bad as a person, you can rest assured of everyone, what is the meaning of harming people, you can't have the heart to defend people?" I'm helping you, with Zhao Xin in those Taihang thieves, even if they don't want to go west, they can't help them. ”
Su Ren snatched the wine jug from Liu Che's hand and poured the last bit of wine into his stomach: "Say, do I have any of your people by my side?" ”
Liu Che laughed, and Su Ren threw down the wine jug and leaned against the pillar behind him. Liu Che ate the braised pork in front of him, raised his foot and kicked Su Ren: "I can tell you the truth, there are people from me in the families of officials all over the world, but there are none around you, do you know why?" It's not because I trust you, it's because the guys around you are too loyal to you, and the loyalty makes me a little jealous, and even Su Kai says they can't help it. ”
"With Su Kai, the big spy leader, living next to me, who else will His Majesty arrange?" Su Ren sat up straight: "But then again, it shouldn't be bad if you put someone next to me, I want to be strong in martial arts, at least I can beat the two old guys who attacked me on the Yellow River, it must be useful at critical times, my family doesn't raise idlers." ”
"Hahaha......" Liu Che laughed, leaning on the pillar like Su Ren, almost all of the plates of meat Liu Che ate, and his stomach was a little swollen: "There are such people, but I'm afraid you won't dare to use it." ”
"If you don't dare to use it, you can save your life, and it's not like marrying home to be a wife."
Liu Che laughed twice, and with a wave of his hand, a figure stood beside Liu Che. The character is not high, judging from the clothes, it should be an internal servant, there is no beard under the chin, a pair of hands on the chest, like chicken feet, the outside of the bone is skin. Although the man is shining, his head is still hiding in the shadows.
"Salute to your new master!"
The man knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Su Ren, still looking down and couldn't see clearly. Su Ren leaned out curiously to look at the man, who was motionless like a wood carving.
Liu Che said: "Don't ask him where he comes from, or who he is, from today onwards his name is Nameless, and he is responsible for your safety, of course, he has to live in your house, and he will pay attention to your every move, even you and your two wives ......"
"What's the matter? It won't be like you, I run errands in bed and he counts under the bed, right? So who is still in the mood? ”
Liu Che smiled: "Slowly you will get used to it, in fact, they are all eunuchs, it is useless to listen to it, I will never let go of the scourge in your home." ”
"Even the eunuch feels awkward, is it okay to give it back to the beauty?"
Liu Che shook his head: "I don't have a beautiful woman with strong martial arts here, even if there is, it won't be your turn!" In a few days, I am going to make him the crown prince, what do you think? ”
"Establish a prince? Why are you in such a hurry? ”
"Since the birth of the child, there have been courtiers who have been playing, and I have been tireless in dragging it, and now the child is three years old, and it is not a way to drag it out, so ......"
"Then let's stand up, anyway, Your Majesty has more time, and you can also slowly inspect the prince, if Liu Ji can't do it, it's not too late to change it."
"What you said is so light, how can it be so easy to depose the crown prince?"
"Oh......" Su Ren's clothes looked disgusting: "I understand, last year the Chen family died in the Changmen Palace, the harem has been ownerless, this time the loud Huns, Wei Qing has the greatest credit in terms of generals, and he is already the husband of the ironclad Princess Pingyang, so Mrs. Wei should also go in, is it true that the mother is more expensive than the son?" ”
Liu Che did not refute: "Wei Qing has the demeanor of a general, I like it very much and want to reuse, then there must be a condition, this time the Huns are lost in the main force, I want to continue to send troops, what do you think?" ”
Su Ren's face lost a smile, the Han Dynasty was the most prosperous dynasty in Chinese history, and Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was able to breathe a bad breath for the Han people. However, it was precisely because of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty that the Han people weakened later, and the situation of chaos in China appeared. Now that Liu Che is still preparing to fight, Su Ren has to think about it
