In the entire court, except for the emperor, everyone is a minister, but there is still a difference between these ministers. Some are ministers of the court, some are ministers of the emperor, and some have long since become ministers of the prince.
All those who serve as officials in the imperial court are the most shrewd, but they are just smart for themselves.
In their opinion, the emperor was old and all the princes had grown up. They were impatient to find the next master.
They first wanted to be the most accomplished and meritorious person in front of the next master, so they began to form gangs and choose their loyal prince.
The emperor's ministers that the emperor is talking about now are those who only obey the emperor's orders. As far as the current court is concerned, he is one, Yu Dongren is one, and there are several generals.
There are too many people like this to be smart.
He was the one chosen by the emperor, and because of this, Su Ze fell ill and was poisoned by the emperor.
He is very clear about these things in his heart now, but it is not yet time for all this. The only thing he can do now is to continue to be the emperor's 'subordinate'.
"I will definitely be the emperor's heart and soul!"
"Okay, okay, okay..."
Prime Minister Su's words made the emperor say several good things in succession. Although his prime minister usually did not say much, his abilities were outstanding and he was quite convincing.
He appreciates ruthless means.
As long as this kind of person is loyal to him wholeheartedly, he will have a lot of peace of mind.
After all his bold words, Prime Minister Su seemed to be tender again.
With red eyes, he asked, "Your Majesty, how do you feel now?"
"No problem."
The emperor only said two words and then stopped talking.
Prime Minister Su was even more sure of his suspicions, and he was very discerning and stopped asking about the emperor's body.
Long Ti was not well. If he asked, it was because he was concerned. If he asked too many questions, he would be spying on his master, and he would be punished.
He has never been one to do things in such a hurry.
"I remember that King Qi offered a ginseng stick last time. I am willing to find another ginseng for the emperor. Although it is not as good as King Qi's, I will definitely try my best to find one worthy of the emperor's dragon body.
.”
When Prime Minister Su mentioned ginseng, he also mentioned Cang Xiuxuan. It sounded like he was really just talking about ginseng, but it also reminded the emperor of his son.
The emperor will not doubt that Prime Minister Su has any purpose in mentioning Cang Xiuxuan now.
After all, judging from his understanding of Prime Minister Su, he had never had any contact with Cang Xiuxuan.
What's more, he mentioned ginseng, which is what he needs most at the moment.
In fact, the emperor had not thought of taking out the ginseng and using it. After all, it seemed more real, but he really couldn't bear to do it after thinking about it.
Now what Prime Minister Su said is exactly what the emperor wants.
"Ai Qing is interested."
If Prime Minister Su can find ginseng for him, the news that he is seriously ill will appear more real, and those people will "let go" and do it.
"I excuse myself."
With his thoughtful words, Prime Minister Su naturally knew what he should do.
Anyway, he just needs to go find ginseng, no matter whether he goes there in person or whatever, whether he goes up the mountain or buys it with money.
Going up the mountain seems a bit unrevealing. Perhaps it is more realistic to buy it with money. After all, it is well known that the Su family is rich.
Especially the emperor.
In the future, even if someone uses this to refer to him, he will not panic at all. His son is doing such a big business, and no one will believe him without a little money.
Besides, he also needs such an opportunity to serve the emperor, especially in terms of money.
After returning home, Prime Minister Su immediately began to inquire in many ways, but all in secret.
The more mysterious this kind of thing is, the more interesting it will be to others.
It was just that he was a little confused as to where to find this ginseng. After all, the ginseng that King Qi had presented to the emperor was so high-quality that he would never be able to find another ginseng in the world.
Prime Minister Su suddenly felt as if he had performed a trick...
After much deliberation, I still have to ask King Qi for help with this matter.
Maybe King Qi has such a clue.
So...
The next day, there was another scene of beating his son in the capital. Everyone in the capital seemed to be used to it. They all knew that the son of Prime Minister Su was uneducated and had no skills. He had a father who was the prime minister, but he had no intention of joining the court as an official.
No thoughts at all.
What's even more irritating is that instead of becoming an official, you can just be an idle young man.
It turned out that this person was interested in doing business.
It is indeed a shameful thing for a person who worships the Prime Minister to have a son.
"Prime Minister Su is beating his son again."
"I'm used to it. I'll beat him up too. Tell me, Mr. Su is a prime minister's son. He likes to do business. It's not like you don't know what the status of merchants in Da Rong is like. Prime Minister Su didn't kick him out.
I’ve already softened my heart.”
"Isn't that the case? No matter how much money there is, there is no use. I guess few of those officials like Mr. Su secretly. You see, he is already this age and has not even gotten married yet."
"This time, Prime Minister Su has been beaten for a long time. In the past two years, he was beaten almost every few days."
"..."
In Shangjing City, the people saw this scene and started talking about it. They didn't think this incident was scary at all.
And those dignitaries in Beijing didn't say anything after hearing about this incident. Those who should drink tea drank tea, and those who should drink drank.
They were not affected at all, and there was no need to be wary of their actions.
After all, as the common people say, Su Cheng beat people up in the street, which has happened from time to time since Su Ze decided to do business.
"Master, Prime Minister Su is beating Su Ze again."
In a teahouse, a very noble-looking man was holding a cup of tea, lowering his head to take a sip from time to time.
When the people around him talked about this incident, he glanced downstairs with lack of interest. Su was still running, and the person chasing behind him was a servant of the Su family.
The man laughed disdainfully, "You deserve it!"
"Prime Minister Su has a very high self-esteem. I have tried to contact him many times but he has rejected me. He has always wanted to be a minister of the emperor. Giving birth to such a son is retribution!"
These princes and princes have all tried to win over Prime Minister Su. After all, he still has a great say in the court and has the emperor's trust.
If he could be smarter and contact him privately, no one would know about it, and he wouldn't treat him badly when the time comes.
Turns out he was just plain stupid.
Almost everyone knew that Prime Minister Su, who had a son like Su Ze, would end badly when he grew older, or when the emperor no longer reused him.
Since they couldn't win him over, they stopped targeting him, and they all held their breath. After they sat in that position, he would be the first to deal with him.
Su Ze is still running downstairs, his destination is very clear, Liuweizhai.
All the dignitaries in Beijing knew that Liuweizhai belonged to him, Su Ze, but Prime Minister Su Ze would never take a step in. Every time he beat Su Ze, as long as Su Ze ran away and Su Ze entered Liuweizhai, no matter what
Neither he nor his servants would step into Liuweizhai again.
They all thought that Prime Minister Su was disgusted and didn't want to enter.
But I didn’t expect...Liuweizhai is actually the most important place for them.
After Su Ze entered Liuweizhai, he went directly into the back hall, where he had his resting place and his more secret place.
"Ask the dark men to go to Mupu Street and tell them that I will wait for their master here."
"yes!"
The people below went to do it immediately.
Su Ze didn't want to say anything anymore. Every time he performed this scene with his father, he was the most tired.
In the past, his father would chase him by himself, but now it's good that his father doesn't chase him anymore and just lets the servants chase him. It's too cheating.
Su Ze collapsed directly on the bed, too tired to even say anything.
Mupu Street is the house where Cang Xiuxuan currently lives. When he went to Beijing, Su Ze sent secret men here to find him if he wanted to contact him.
The so-called dark people are people who almost never show up, and no one knows them.
That way there won't be any suspicion.
After Cang Xiuxuan received the news, he packed up and went out. This time he didn't take Song Chen with him, and this time his appearance changed again.
They are always very discreet in what they do, and will not give others any chance to doubt, not even the possibility of coincidence.
Cang Xiuxuan did not go through the main gate of Liuweizhai, but went around to the back street. There was a very secret door there, a door that no one knew would lead to Liuweizhai no matter how they looked.
After leaving, Cang Xiuxuan was taken to Su Ze's side. When he entered the door, he saw Su Ze lying on the bed like a dead dog.
"You can cry to Xiaochen later and ask her to give you something to strengthen your body. You are too weak."
Isn’t it too weak to be so exhausted after just one scene?
As soon as Su Ze heard this, he sat up from the bed and said, "Don't talk nonsense. I'm just bored of waiting for you, so I won't let you lie down for a while. Don't ask Xiaochen for everything. She's so tired."
.”
Cang Xiuxuan...
"Why am I so upset after hearing what you said?"
"Um..." Su Ze rolled his eyes, "What I mean is that when things go wrong for me, I always bother Xiaochen. Don't get me wrong."
After saying this, Su Ze shut up and said nothing more.
He didn't want to find fault for himself.
Fortunately, Cang Xiuxuan also accepted his statement.
"Did something happen in the palace?"
After making a joke, Cang Xiuxuan went straight to the topic. They had only met Prime Minister Su two days ago. If there was no urgent matter, they would not be like this.
According to his analysis, the most important thing for Prime Minister Su now should be matters related to the palace.
Otherwise, with Prime Minister Su's behavior, he would never look for him again in such a hurry.
Su Ze nodded upon hearing this, "The Emperor is ill."
"Does Prime Minister Su know the truth or falsehood?" Cang Xiuxuan asked calmly.
Su Ze got angry when he saw him like this, "I said you can't give me more reaction. I'm very tired every time I act."
