But he did not return to Dazongzhengfu, but went to his own villa.
All along, Yan Wuwo has been doing things that make Zhao Yunrang happy.
There are some disgraceful things among them, but no matter what, the result is good. It can bring a large amount of money to Zhao Yunrang, which can then be used to attract people's hearts and even give gifts to the palace to show loyalty.
The reason why a dog can win the favor of its owner is because it can help its owner do things that make the owner happy. But once one day, it no longer has this ability, the owner will dislike it and even abandon it.
Yan Wuren didn't want to become an abandoned son, so he couldn't let Zhao Yunrang know about this matter, so after he came back, he issued a hush-hush order, and no one was allowed to tell about this matter, otherwise he would die.
As a result, Yan Wuwo suffered a big loss in Suzhai and was beaten up and thrown out. Except for the person involved and the Secret Service, no one else knew anything about it.
...
Su Zhai.
Yue Siling had already helped Su Shi change his clothes, and now he was sitting at the wooden table thinking about things.
He has no regrets about what happened today.
Some things would not have happened unless you regretted them. What should have come will eventually come.
Besides, Su Shi doesn't have no cards to play now. Emperor Renzong, His Royal Highness King Jing, the Li family, and the Miao family will all be tied to him on a chariot. Once he touches himself, it is equivalent to
If their interests are affected, Zhao Yunrang must not understand this truth.
Based on this, Zhao Yun asked Fanfan to be smarter and not take action against him now, at least not over the matter of the housekeeper being beaten. In other words, there would be no crisis for the time being.
Of course, this person must have been offended, and as long as there was a suitable opportunity, Su Shi believed that Zhao Yunrang would never show mercy.
But that is all a matter for the future. What Su Shi has to do now is to weave the net in his hands bigger and bigger, until it is eventually so big that no one can shake it. At that time, it is truly safe.
Lying on the bed, Su Shi slowly fell asleep while thinking constantly.
Yubei Street in front of Kaibao Temple, Miao Mansion.
Duke Miao Jizong of Wu State did not fall asleep. He was still talking to his son Miao Xiu in the side hall of his house.
Miao Xiu, the eldest son of Duke Wu, the brother of Concubine Miao, and also the right-hand admonishment official of the current court.
"Dad, my sister sent news from the palace, and I also sent someone to check on this Su Tianyou. He is only a fourteen-year-old boy, and he also has leg problems." Miao Xiu had a look of confusion on his face.
I asked, seemingly confused.
"Well, this man's father knows that he was the one who took good care of His Royal Highness King Jing's physical illness before." Miao Jizong was not a man of many words. After saying this, he stopped talking and waited for his son.
To realize it yourself.
Miao Xiu was obviously still a little confused. Looking at his father's somewhat earnest eyes, he couldn't help but said: "Dad, are you saying that this person has good medical skills? But even so, he is not the only one in the world. There are many in the Imperial Medical Office.
Medical masters, with them here, even if we have any physical discomfort, we should not be able to seek help from this person."
Seeing that his son still couldn't understand what he meant, nor what the imperial concubine's daughter meant, Miao Jizong could only shake his head and said: "Brother Xiu, do you think that just by curing His Highness King Jing's physical illness, he can be fourteen?"
Is it possible for a person who is 20 years old and still has leg problems to be promoted to a sixth-rank official like Tong Naorou?"
"Then why can the imperial doctors in the Imperial Medical Office only be imperial doctors and cannot actually serve as officials in the imperial court?"
Seeing his father's two questions, Miao Xiu looked even more puzzled. "My child is stupid, please tell me."
"Hey." He sighed. His son was good at everything. When he was a child, he was also smart, eager to learn, and well-educated. But there was just one thing that he didn't have a lively mind. It seems that he should pay more attention to it when he was alive.
"Brother Hugh, nothing happens by chance. Especially when the result is reached, it is often a decision made after careful consideration. And once it involves court affairs, it is often a multi-party game.
The results will come later.”
"Remember, nothing is trivial in the court. Especially when it comes to the appointment of officials, nothing is trivial. Even if it is the appointment of a seventh-grade county magistrate, there is often a story behind it that no one else can see, or even a story behind it.
A huge network of relationships.”
"Su Tianyou seems to have only cured King Jing's physical illness, but he was able to become Tongzhilang at the age of fourteen and was given the title by an official. What does this mean?"
"Does it mean he is a capable person?" Miao Xiu answered tentatively.
"More than that. The most important explanation is that he is already in the heart of the emperor. Think about it, our Song Dynasty originally had a very large number of officials, and the phenomenon of redundant officials has become more and more serious over the years. But if you think about it carefully
, the appointment of most officials is issued by the three provinces, and the number of officials directly appointed by the government is not very large, and most of them are noble people. That Su Shi can be given an official position by the government shows that
What is it?"
Miao Jizong wanted to explain more to his son so that he could see things more clearly and avoid detours in the future. But obviously his efforts were in vain, at least from now on Miao Xiuna became more and more confused.
On his face, he didn't understand.
"Hey, brother Xiu, dad told you before that you can't just look at a person's surface, nor just look at some of the things he does in front of you. You have to look further, so that you can have a better understanding.
It provides more basis for making correct judgments."
Even after all the words have been said, if Miao Xiu still doesn't understand, then it will be in vain for people to say that he is smart.
Finally, after saying these words, Miao Xiu thought of something and asked, "Dad, are you saying that the origin of Su Tianyou's identity is not simple?"
Seeing that his son finally understood, Miao Jizong nodded happily, "Yes, this person's mother's name is Zhao Feier, and she is the youngest daughter of the late Nankang County Duke."
"Ah!" Miao Xiu was really shocked when he heard this result.
"Dad, is this true? Why haven't I heard of it before?" Miao Xiu still didn't believe it in his heart.
"This is all in the past. You were still very young at that time. Besides, you have been under our protection these years. You only focused on doing your knowledge. When you were your official, you never cared about this matter.
?" Miao Jizong chuckled.
"Oh." A look of embarrassment flashed across Miao Xiu's face. Then he said as if he had thought of something, "So, this Su Tianyou also has the blood of the royal family?"
"Well. This should be the reason why officials give officials. Over the years, there have been discussions about Taizu's succession to the throne. It means everything. Now there is an opportunity to prove the selflessness of officials. You say, change
If it were you, would you do it?"
Listening to his father explaining the matter so straightforwardly, Miao Xiu finally understood and said: "Dad, this Su Tianyou is a benchmark set by the official family to silence the public. Even so, the official
I won’t allow others to touch him easily, will I?”
"Haha, my son is indeed smart." Miao Jizong finally had a smile on his face.
Miao Xiu also laughed along with him, "Thank you dad, my sister must have seen this too, so she let us cooperate with him in the knife-burning business. In this way, with the protection of our Miao family,
Others must think carefully if they want to touch Su Tianyou. If we do this, the officials will be happy if they know about it. This is the real intention."
With Miao Xiu enlightened like this, Miao Jizong could finally feel relieved and said: "Even if you already know how serious the matter is, then you can have a good chat with this Tongzhiro tomorrow about cooperation.
Hey, actually there is nothing to talk about, it is just to sell to the other party to save face. If there is a suitable opportunity, you can also help him sell some drinks, so that he can stay in the capital safely, so that he can safely become
That benchmark set by the officials."
"And, more importantly, His Highness King Jing is involved in this matter. This is an opportunity for us to make good friends with His Highness."
Mrs. Xu was once the wet nurse of Renzong Zhao Zhen. Thanks to this, the Miao family achieved its current glory. But what if Renzong is gone one day?
As for their successors, they have nothing in common.
Now, they can be tied together through this business of burning knives. This is an opportunity that no one else can ask for. How can the Miao family not seize it?
"I understand, dad." Miao Xiu also looked like he understood completely.
The father and son talked late at night, thinking they had seen through everything. Even in order to gain the favor of the officials, they were willing to help Su Shi. But what they had no idea was how much they themselves would benefit from helping Su Shi.
.
It can be said that everyone underestimated Su Shi and the power of the burning knife.
Early the next morning, when Su Shi was having breakfast, he learned that Li Zhang sent someone to take away the brick tea overnight. It seemed that this was also a man who did something.
After Su Shi was in a good mood, he took a sedan chair and went straight to the Miao Mansion on Yubei Street.
Su Shi also liked the well-behaved and sensible Princess Fukang. If given the opportunity, he would certainly be willing to help this little cutie and her family.
Presumably the richer the Su family's wealth is, the easier Princess Fukang's life will be in the future.
As for the twists and turns that the Miao family had in mind, Su Shi didn't know. Perhaps he had underestimated people's hearts and underestimated the official character of protecting reputation.
Miao Mansion.
Miao Xiu specially took half a day off just to wait for Su Shi's arrival.
As soon as Su Shi appeared, Miao Xiu took the initiative to greet him with a warm attitude. This chapter has been completed!
