I’m a Scumbag [Quick Wear]

Chapter 20: Agricultural champion (twenty)

"I heard that Aiqing is from Jinling."

Emperor Jiande looked gentle, not like a human emperor, but like an amiable elder.

Shao Yu didn't know why Emperor Jiande asked this. She thought about the other party's intentions. She couldn't help thinking of what Prince Liang had said before, and wondered if she really wanted to go to Jiangnan to rectify the salt industry?

How can Shao Yu not know that the interests of the salt industry are intricately entangled, but he is not too afraid, it is always a soldier to stop it.

Emperor Jiande asked some other questions, but most of them were about Shao Yu's family background.

"Your strategy theory was excellent before, but due to limited paper, it seemed a little unclear." Jiande said.

"We are really ashamed to talk about military affairs on paper."

The two talked about the three policy discussions immediately. Emperor Jiande asked, and Shao Yu replied, which seemed to be the ruler and the minister.

From noon to evening, the waiter added tea several times, but the monarch and minister did not want to stop talking.

Because he was a foreign minister, Emperor Jiande did not leave him to eat, but when Shao Yu resigned, the emperor seemed to be a little unfinished. The emperor just asked his opinion, he didn't want him to be transferred to Jiangnan, and he was a little uncertain for a while.

"In time, it will be the pillar of the country." Emperor Jiande praised.

A young man walked out from behind the screen and said, "Congratulations to the uncle of the emperor, for winning this thousand-mile horse."

Emperor Jiande laughed and said, "Speaking of which, you have a destiny with him."

He suspected that it was someone from Prince Liang's mansion who had harmed him, and then at Doctor Fang, he saw a carriage from Prince Liang's mansion seeking medical attention.

It's just that he was dormant this time, but he really noticed something. The Qingke in Liangwang's mansion was suffering from a hidden illness. People, there was a lot of tone in the chat.

Just now he knew that the person who ambushed him was really the assassin of Prince Liang’s mansion, and Prince Liang’s mansion still did not let down its vigilance, and kept sending people to look for him in the dark.

And he happened to meet the warm-hearted Shao Yu and took the initiative to bring himself back to the city. Later, the residence he moved was closer to a stronghold of Duke Huai's mansion in the city, so he successfully contacted People from Duke Huai's mansion.

"Your Majesty, Princess Yongan asks to see you." The chief servant came in and whispered.

"Uncle Royal, my cousin will be here soon, and my nephew will leave first." Prince Huai got up and retreated from the side door.

"Father." Princess Yongan walked in, gave a rough bow, and then approached Emperor Jiande.

"Why are you here today?" asked Emperor Jiande.

"I haven't seen my father for a long time, and I miss you very much. Don't you want to see my son?" Princess Yongan received the news that Shao Yu was summoned, so she came in a hurry. Having already played the drum in front of the emperor, he only wanted to be a matchmaker for the third princess and Shao Yu.

After she learned that Shao Yu was suffering from a "hidden disease", she got the money from Prince Liang's mansion, so she came up with such a poisonous plan. After all, if they got married, the emperor would not let Shao Yu in the newlywed period Li Jing, in this way, can not only suppress the younger sister who is competing with him for favor, but also complete the entrustment, which is completely multi-purpose.

Princess Yong'an was the emperor's first child and the daughter of the Empress Yuan. The Empress Yuan passed away early. The Emperor took pity on her and lost her mother at a young age, so he was very fond of her, seeing her like this The appearance of dependence, the heart is also very.

"It's been more than a year now, seeing your sister and they're talking about kissing, all of them are lively and lively, it's hard to avoid being lonely when you're alone." The emperor's expression was full of worry from his old father.

Princess Yongan felt a little warm in her heart, but said: "The father has already allowed the child to choose a person who suits his heart, but it's just that the person who suits his heart is not so easy to find. When discussing relatives, it is better for the royal father to directly issue a decree to marry her and Lord Shao."

The emperor's eyes darkened, and he said, "Shao Yu has already married, so there is no need to mention it again."

"My son heard that his wife was born in the countryside, but she was just a peasant woman. It seems that the two of them are really not a good match, and that really wronged Mr. Shao." Princess Yongan paused. , and then said: "The third sister has always preferred talented people. The two are really a good match. It would be a pity if they missed it."

"Yongan!" Emperor Jiande couldn't help scolding when he heard what she said, "The husband and wife love each other, even if I am the emperor, it is not good to interfere too much, where in the world is there? If you lack a talent, you have to hang on Shao Yu's crooked-neck tree?"

"And your third sister didn't say anything, your sister is more worried than her."

"It doesn't matter, you also care about your sister." Emperor Jiande didn't want to think deeply.

Princess Yong'an continued as a joke, and added: "The other day I heard people say that living in the capital is not easy, and the price of houses in the capital is high, but I think this is ridiculous. , People from the countryside like the Shao family can buy a three-entry house in Beijing, and Master Shao is also preparing to take his parents and relatives to Beijing to settle down, so it can be seen that those words were made up by the people below."

Emperor Jiande frowned when he heard the words, looked at his daughter who looked natural, and asked, "How did you know about the Shao family?"

Princess Yong'an has the demeanor of a eldest sister, and said: "Father, my son wants to be a matchmaker for the third sister, so naturally he has to find out who the other party is, if the Shao family is really a mansion, they can't even buy a house. If they are really married in the future, will the whole family be squeezed into the third sister's princess palace?"

"There is no need to mention this marriage." Emperor Jiande emphasized again.

Princess Yongan seemed to wake up suddenly, and said, "The mansion with three entrances, I'm afraid it will cost thousands of taels to sell. Master Shao doesn't know where the money came from..."

Emperor Jiande was not angry when he heard the words, but he knew the whole story of the Shao family's house. This house was actually given to the Shao family by the Huaiwang mansion. To repay him for saving the world's son, he had to use this method.

Therefore, no matter how Princess Yongan suggested that Shao Yu was a greedy person, Emperor Jiande was unmoved.

Emperor Jiande said: "The affairs of the officials of the imperial court are under the supervision of the imperial censor. Why do you think so much as a princess."

"My son is also worried about the society for the father and the emperor." Princess Yongan paused, and then said: "Although the son is a female, I also want to share the worries for the king and the father."

"Then tell me, what worries do I have now?"

"It's nothing more than Jiangnan Salt Industry."

Emperor Jiande's expression was full of connivance, but Princess Yongan didn't think anything was wrong. She was naturally favored, and she naturally spoke without any scruples.

Emperor Jiande was more and more frightened. In the past, he didn't pay attention to his eldest daughter. He only knew that she would occasionally do things for others, but those were all petty troubles. Emperor Jiande didn't bother with her for an unimportant small official position, but he didn't expect to raise her mind, and now she wants to shake the country.

The secret conversation between Princess Yongan and Prince Liang's teahouse has been reported by the inner guard, but Emperor Jiande still expects his beloved daughter to know how to advance and retreat. .

Female.

It's just that he thought he could have a son in the early years, but when he realized that he was destined to have no son, none of his five daughters were successful. If the regent was the queen, it would be The image of chaos.

Princess Yongan did not feel that something was wrong, but said in a plausible manner: "Erchen seems to be a good fit for Mrs. Su Hui, he is an upright person, and there is no sand in his eyes, so he will definitely be successful in Jiangnan. ."

Emperor Jiande was secretly shocked. If he had not noticed it in advance, he would have let this surnamed Su Hui go, but this Su Hui seemed to be a selfless and unselfish official in the past. Recently, an internal guard discovered that this person had a close relationship with Prince Liang's mansion in private.

There was indeed something wrong with Emperor Jiande's body, but he was not terminally ill. He intended to choose one person in the clan to be crowned prince, but he never made up his mind. His early brother died His death, his wounds, and those who are still alive today are mostly those who followed him at that time.

King Liang and King Huai, both were princes from palace maids. Because their mother's family was not obvious, they took refuge with the emperor who was still the prince at that time, and then relied on the merits of the dragon to enjoy the title of prince. .

The two had no thoughts in their hearts at first, but then they saw that Emperor Jiande's daughters were born one after another, but most of their sons died, and they couldn't help but have other thoughts.

Although Emperor Jiande ordered many disciples of the clan to be by his side, in the opinion of most, the winner should be decided between Duke Huai and Prince Liang.

King Liang was tyrannical and King Huai was weak, but the two princes were indeed first-class talents, standing out among the clan children.

Emperor Jiande didn't know about the struggle between the two palaces, but he didn't expect that as the situation expanded, not only court officials stood in line, but several of his own daughters also participated.

At the end of last year, Prince Huai, who was originally entrusted with a secret edict to enter Beijing, was attacked by the enemy on his way, and his whereabouts were unknown. Therefore, for a long time, only the prince of Liang was the only one who ruled in front of the imperial palace.

But when Emperor Jiande saw that Prince Liang was doing so well, he was always a little uneasy. He always felt that Prince Liang seemed to be missing something, and after Prince Huai returned safely, he dispatched Neiwei kept staring at the two princes day and night, and he really asked him to investigate and deal with a lot of things.

Although Prince Huai is young, he is indeed a very good executor. He can handle everything that Emperor Jiande told him to do.

The Prince of Liang, although he did things very well, he was too tactful. For the sake of a virtuous and famous minister, he promised to buy people's hearts with heavy profits. happiness.

Emperor Jiande is not angry about Prince Liang's assassination of Prince Huai's son, after all, the king is hard-hearted. In the past, when Xuanwumen changed, everyone scolded Li Shimin. No, there is still Dao Mingjun.

Emperor Jiande was angry that, in the case of the Salt Administration, Prince Liang's method to win over Jiangnan completely ruined his own layout. The weak state that Prince Liang was easily kidnapped by Jiangnan officials really Not what a qualified monarch should do.

"

Princess Yongan was full of joy when things were done.

After a few days, the imperial court issued a decree that the Prince of Huai would be the supervisory room to inspect the salt administration in the south of the Yangtze River. As for the son of Prince Liang, he was dispatched to Guizhou to deal with the hidden household in the mountains.

Fang Ji used to be unremarkable, but now he is dispatched to one place, how does Prince Liang do not know, this person must be the emperor's confidant.

"Prince, the princess has begun to urge." Zheng Tan said cautiously.

The Prince of Liang was so angry that he said, "She still has the face to ask for money, and she has such a big appetite, but she can't do it!"

"But if you don't give it, I'm afraid the princess will be dissatisfied..." Zheng Tan said cautiously.

"Prince Huai is already dead, why is he still alive, he is a bunch of trash, and it's not good to kill anyone." Prince Liang was so angry that he wanted to die, and said: "Send someone to investigate, Find out how that little beast came back alive."

The emperor's bias in his heart, Prince Liang hated deeply in his heart. He thought that his performance this year was good enough, but he never thought that the emperor's heart was still the little brat of Duke Huai's mansion.

Yes, there is nothing much to do in the salt industry now. You take people to Jiangnan yourself, and use the looms of Jinxiu Cloth Village to recruit weaver girls in Jiangnan to stock up on cloth. Before autumn, be sure to put the cloth the price goes up.”
