readx;
After the banquet, Zhu Houzhao had an excuse to go downstairs for something, and the banquet suddenly became a lot quieter. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
All the people who came to eat and drink had their own hearts, His Royal Highness the King of Chu deliberately wanted to give the big guy to His Royal Highness the Prince, this is naturally a good move, the prince has just ascended the throne There are not many cronies, especially there are almost no people who are really handy on the side of the foreign court, and the Zhang brothers are only half, but unfortunately if these two guys make them profitable, they can immediately jump three feet high, and they can also pinch their noses and wade through the sea of swords and fires, but it is unprofitable...... Liu Chengfeng's people have no backer for a while, it's not that there is no, it's just that this backer is too far away to reach the whip, and now with the prince to take care of it, he has naturally settled a lot, anyway, Liu Chengfeng and His Royal Highness the Prince are one, there is Liu Chengfeng on the Chu side, and there is the prince on the Jingshi side, and everyone has a landing, at least they won't be held in their hands by someone at will when they encounter something.
But then again, the prince may not be reliable, don't look at the noble status of His Royal Highness the Prince, it seems to be stable, but the people sitting here know that His Royal Highness the Prince is the most easily bewitched, people can't say a word about the roots of the ears as soon as the roots are soft, and the promise is made in the face of the King of Chu, whether he can admit it at that time is another matter, plus the emperor has the intention of establishing an auxiliary minister, the auxiliary minister and the cabinet minister are different, the so-called auxiliary government, in fact, even if His Royal Highness the prince succeeds to the throne in the future, I'm afraid that for the time being, don't think about turning over and being in charge, everything is up to the Auxiliary Minister.
And everyone knows that everyone has expanded too fast in recent years, especially after Liu Chengfeng as a backer, most of the people here are promoted from the bottom and the foundation is not solid, in the eyes of others, everyone is a group of nouveau riche, and they have long been hated.
In particular, the cabinet and the East Factory have regarded everyone as a thorn in the flesh, and as soon as Liu Chengfeng walks on the front foot, everyone may capsize in the gutter.
Liu Chengfeng saw that everyone was silent, at this time the wine had been withdrawn and replaced with a sobering tea, he held the tea cup and slowly drank it in his hand, the warm tea entrance washed away the wine in his mouth, and the whole person became much more sober.
Liu Chengfeng said slowly: "This king is not parting with you in life and death, what are you doing like this?" On the Lianzhou side, as long as the king is still there, the king will still know what is going on in the Jingshi, so everyone does their own thing, and there is no need to have any worries. ā
Chen Hongyu leaned on Liu Chengfeng's side, he was Liu Chengfeng's most powerful cronies, at this time he had to say something, and said: "My lord, that's what he said, but to be honest, the brothers usually make too many enemies, the prince is really leaving, and the brothers also feel that the big trouble is coming, to be honest, I don't really want to do this command, I don't want to do this command, it's better to follow the prince to the palace to mix an errand, I, Chen Hongyu, am from the general banner, without the prince, there is no today, usually everything is told by the prince to do things, Now that there is no prince, his heart is empty, and he always feels uneasy. ā
As soon as Chen Hongyu said this, everyone couldn't help but nod, this is a true sentence, in fact, everyone's background is not very good, without Liu Chengfeng, they would not be where they are today, Chen Hongyu's words resonated with most people.
Only Li Dongdong sat on the side and smiled, he didn't have this burden, because Liu Chengfeng had already hinted at him, this time he would take him to Chu Di, the current Lianzhou was changed to Chu State, and the establishment of the vassal king of the Eight Classics was definitely set up as a vassal state, and he was the closest person to Liu Chengfeng, and he had knowledge and experience in governance, so Li Dongdong pondered in his heart, when the time comes, this Chu State's ' Most of the cabinet has its own place, and he can only be regarded as a military position in the imperial court, but when he arrives in the Chu State, he is a civil servant, which is something he has always longed for, so he is quite proud at this time.
Liu Chengfeng saw that everyone had the intention to follow him to Chu State, but he smiled bitterly and said, "You all have to go, what should you do with this brocade guard?" What to do with Jubao Building? And what about the new army? If His Royal Highness the Crown Prince ascends the throne in the future, I don't know what the situation will be when there is no one to take care of him. ā
Liu Chengfeng was silent for a moment, and said: "Chen Hongyu and Qian Fang must stay, Qian Fang doesn't say it, even if he wants to leave the imperial court, he won't let go, as for Chen Hongyu's ......" Liu Chengfeng said: "This king will try his best to ensure that you come to take over as the commander of Jinyiwei, this is a big deal, so many brothers of Jinyiwei have built so many achievements with us, what if we all leave the brothers?" However, whether I can guarantee you to be the commander of this king is not too sure, so he can only do his best. ā
Chen Hongyu muttered: "Wen Zhengwen Tongzhi can also be this commander." ā
For him, the commander seems to have great authority, but he also has a lot to do, after all, not everyone can be an official to be as wishful as Liu Chengfeng, without Liu Chengfeng's Jinyi Wei Mo said that he is enterprising, it is not bad to be able to hold this acre of land, it is better to follow Liu Chengfeng to the side of the feudal kingdom to be chic.
Liu Chengfeng said with a straight face: "Wen is the father-in-law of this king, but this time he wants to go there with me, you can rest assured, you will have a piece of meat to stay in this Jingshi, and this king will not teach you to suffer." ā
After appeasing everyone, Liu Chengfeng roughly assigned some people, and some people were going south with Liu Chengfeng, including Li Dongdong, Wen Zheng and Lao Huo, as well as a few military attaches of the new army, in addition to Gao Qiang and other guards, these candidates were all determined by Liu Chengfeng inside, and the court must be eager to release people, the more Liu Chengfeng's people go, the better, and they were all packed and sent. And the emperor must not have any opinions, these are trivial matters, so he won't care.
Therefore, the people who were selected naturally had to be ready to resign, and then they would walk with Liu Chengfeng, as for these people who stayed in Beijing, Liu Chengfeng also tried his best to plan for them, as for whether they could fight for their future at that time, it was uncertain.
After he said for a while, he left the table and went out of the toilet, and saw Zhu Houzhao's eunuch Liu Jin standing at the bottom of the restaurant in a daze, walked over with his hands and glanced at Liu Jin indifferently, and said, "Father-in-law Liu, where is His Royal Highness the Prince?" ā
Liu Jin saw Liu Chengfeng's face smiling like a flower, and said with a sneer: "His Royal Highness is in the back garden, saying that he wants to be quiet and ask the slave to watch here." ā
Liu Chengfeng's eyes flashed with a hint of suspicion, and he said in a flat tone: "You stand here, I'll go to the garden to have a look." ā
Liu Jin didn't dare to stop it, Liu Chengfeng immediately walked into the back garden, this restaurant is very luxurious, so that even the scale of the garden is not small, the winding path, the pavilion attic, close to the dim twilight under the evening breeze, the branches and leaves rustle, although it is winter, but there is still a bit of flavor.
Passing through the moon hole, there is a small pond, in the pond there are no lotus flowers and lotus leaves, only a few weeping willows bare hanging branches dangling in the air, a lonely figure sitting by the pond, unmoving.
Liu Chengfeng walked over slowly, the people by the pond seemed to feel the person, and hurriedly looked sideways, and when he turned his face, Liu Chengfeng recognized him, it was Zhu Houzhao, Zhu Houzhao looked a little surprised, and said, "Why did Master Liu find it?" ā
Liu Chengfeng approached step by step, and said with a smile: "I happened to see Liu Jin, and he said that you are here." ā
Zhu Houzhao looked very lonely, if it was his previous surname, he would definitely mumble a few words to Liu Jin, but at this time, he just sat curled up by the pond and said slowly: "Isn't Master Liu's medical skills very clever?" Is there really no cure for my father's illness? ā
Liu Chengfeng realized that this guy was worried about his father, don't look at this guy who has no heart and lungs, but he is still very emotional, otherwise Liu Chengfeng would not have maintained such a long-term friendship with Zhu Houzhao. He smiled slightly and said, "Your Highness, manpower is always limited, and if you are unwilling to govern, you can only do nothing." ā
Zhu Houzhao was full of disappointment and said, "Can this palace say something to Master Liu?" ā
Liu Chengfeng sat on the edge of the pond, next to Zhu Houzhao, looking at the rippling pool water blown by the wind, and said, "Your Highness, it doesn't hurt to say it." ā
Zhu Houzhao said: "Last night, I got up at night in the dormitory, and I heard the two companions outside talking, they were very happy, saying that as long as the father died, the palace would be the emperor, and from now on, they would be able to follow the ......."
Liu Chengfeng frowned and said, "How does Your Highness feel when you hear it?" ā
Zhu Houzhao said: "Bengong was very angry at first, but then he was not angry. ā
Liu Chengfeng was stunned for a moment.
Zhu Houzhao continued: "The palace was originally thinking, it turned out that in this East Palace, everyone was looking forward to their father's death, these people were really wolf-hearted, originally the palace was angry, and wanted to rush out and beat their mouths, but then I thought, Master Liu said a word, the world is all for profit, and the father of the palace is not their father, why are they sad and sad?" But the palace is very uncomfortable, the father has been diligent for so many years, every time he thinks about the people of the world, but there are a few people in the world who care about his life and death, for many people, if the father really drives the crane away, maybe the new monarch can also amnesty the world, there are many people who want it, the more the palace thinks like this, the more terrible it feels, and it feels so cold. ā
Liu Chengfeng was silent for a while, saying that he could fully understand Zhu Houzhao's state of mind It was empty words, but he could roughly feel the sadness in Zhu Houzhao's heart, he stretched out his hand and patted Zhu Houzhao's shoulder, and said, "Your Highness has grown up." ā
