"Jiang Taifu, it's still too pedantic." Wan Jilan listened to her son's complaint and whispered.
She only wanted to find a good teacher for her son, and considering that old Jiang had been an official for many years, when he died, Yan Chu had not emerged in the previous dynasty, so she wouldn't be too angry with Yan Chu.
But she forgot that old Jiang was angry and died because he couldn't bear the daze of emperor Cheng Qing. With his temperament, how could he watch eunuchs like Yan Chu take charge of the court.
Wan Qilan pondered that old Jiang could not be the only emperor around his son. Before, he thought that pure ministers could reassure people. Now, Qi'er has become an emperor, and a hundred flowers should bloom around him.
The former number one scholar and the current editor of Hanlin academy, Mohsen, is from Yan Chu. The other party is quite talented and proficient in mathematics. Jiang Guanglu, a great scholar of the palace and cabinet, takes the long eight part essay and is a bit of the golden mean, but he can sit in his current position on both sides. That's his skill
Wan Jilan crossed many names in her heart. It's not a good thing to stand alone around the emperor. Only when there are more people with their own thoughts can Qi'er know that being an emperor can't be biased. What's more important is to think for herself. In addition, those people have their own persistence. They have different likes and dislikes for Yan Chu and have the influence of those people, The emperor can learn to look at the man with his own eyes.
Wan Jilan doesn't think that Yan Chu, the son of the Yan family, will really do something harmful to the state of big business. Even if he wants revenge and is blinded by hatred, he won't gamble with the people. Therefore, as long as the emperor looks carefully, he will find how childish and ridiculous his prejudices and misunderstandings about him in the past.
As for what Yan Chu did to the imperial family, Wan Jilan will naturally describe it later. The emperor will not know the role Yan Chu played in the affairs of his big brother, the third brother and the supreme emperor. She does not want the two people she cherishes most to embark on a hostile road.
"Mother!"
Zong Zhengqing Qi couldn't help holding Wan Jilan's sleeve like a child: "how can you help the eunuch speak? Can you be my emperor and listen to him?"
In fact, the scene that happened in the imperial study today had a great impact on Zong Zhengqing Qi. At least he recognized Xiao Chu's ability and realized that the other party's ability to sit in this position was not entirely the favor of his father and Emperor.
There was a touch of admiration in his heart, but more fear.
"Walls have ears."
Wan Jilan's smiling face stopped. It was very uncomfortable to hear his beloved son call Yan Chu like that.
"Know the queen mother."
Zongzheng Qingqi's face collapsed. He was still not the emperor. He had to look at the eyes of the eunuch Xiao Chu.
In the past, the Hougong and the former dynasty would cover up their flattery and worship of Xiao Chu. Now they shout nine thousand years old one by one. They are almost as old as him. If he were not a eunuch, I'm afraid he would directly overthrow his puppet emperor and ascend himself.
With Wan Qilan's intelligence, she certainly saw her son's insincerity. She felt a little tired in her heart, but she still cheered up and wanted to relieve her son's heart knot.
"Do you think governor Xiao's criticism of you today is wrong?" Wan Jilan looked at his son and asked.
Zong Zhengqing Qi wanted to say yes, but her mouth wriggled for a while. She was embarrassed to spit out the word.
The other side's words were reasonable, and his clever plan prevented the turmoil of the victims in eastern province. At this time, it was too cold for him to say yes.
But Zong Zhengqing Qi was still a little angry. He was the emperor. Shouldn't Xiao Chu teach him these things in advance? As long as he taught, he would understand that no one was born to be an emperor. Not to mention that he was still young, he always wanted to give him a chance to learn.
"Are you blaming governor Xiao for not telling you what to do after the news of the drought in eastern province came?"
Zong Zhengqing Qi is Wanji Lansheng's. she doesn't know what he's thinking.
"But have you ever thought that you are the emperor? If governor Xiao needs to think about these things and tell you again, what is the significance of being an emperor? Why didn't he overthrow you and directly become an emperor himself?"
Wan Jilan was too straightforward. Zong Zhengqing Qi turned pale. He was still a teenager. How could he stand the mother imperial concubine who had always loved him standing on the side of the enemy, taunting him and looking down on him.
"He is a eunuch. He wants to be an emperor. Can the courtiers obey him and the people obey him?"
Zong Zhengqing Qi clenched her teeth and was stubborn. The mother imperial concubine didn't love him anymore. The little emperor was wronged.
"Then why didn't he throw you out of office and put a more obedient and controlled emperor on the stage? With his current control in the previous dynasty, he wanted me and you to die silently in the harem, which would not attract external protests. Without you, your five emperors and other members of the imperial family, they even had babies in their infancy. Which one No better than you convince him, even because he gave them the throne, they will be grateful to him. "
This time, Wan Jilan was cruel. He didn't hug him in his arms because he showed an aggrieved expression.
"He still keeps old Jiang as your emperor and teacher, and is willing to guide you, rather than indulge you and spoil you into a foolish king with great ambition and talent, which is useless to the country. That means that he is not as bad as you think, and his ambition is not as big as you think."
"He, he may, maybe there are other tricks."
Zongzheng Qingqi has been persuaded by wanjilan, the empress mother, because the words Yan Chu said when he left the imperial study during the day came to his mind. He is waiting for him to recapture the territory of Zongzheng royal family from him. Does it make it clear that the other party will not deliberately suppress him.
But the boy's stubbornness hardened his mouth and didn't want to admit defeat so easily in the argument with his mother.
Just because of the guilty heart, the word order is bumpy and not so sure.
"Qi'er, look at it with your heart. Don't you want to be a famous Mingjun? Distinguishing loyalty from evil is your first lesson. What is good and what is bad. Everything in the world is not black or white. What you see and hear is not necessarily true. The empress mother hopes you can put aside those inherent stereotypes and see clearly. Governor Xiao, come here At the end of the day, he is a traitor and a powerful official with the ability to govern the world. "
Wan Jilan held his son's shoulders, He said solemnly: "But if you want to be an excellent emperor, you must learn to control all kinds of ministers. Not all of them are loyal to the royal family. Many people have their own careful thinking and ambition, but this does not prevent you from appreciating their ability. How to correctly turn their skills into their own use is what you should learn. When can you If it is enough for governor Xiao to use for you, then you will be a successful emperor. "
Wan Jilan's words opened the door to a new world for Zong zhengqingqi. He couldn't help imagining that he was standing in the Jinluan hall talking, while Xiao Chu looked at his scene with admiration at the bottom.
The feeling of suffocation was swept away. Zong Zhengqing Qi suddenly felt that she had a new goal.
Didn't Xiao Chu say to let him recapture the power of the patriarchal royal family from him? He not only wanted to recapture the rights belonging to his emperor, but also wanted him to sincerely submit to him.
Zong Zhengqing Qi clenched her fist and swore secretly in her heart.
Of course, all this must start with a good study. The gap between him and Xiao Chu is too big. Zong Zhengqing and Qi don't believe it. In a few years or more, he can't compare with the eunuch Xiao Chu.
*****
"Where do you want to take Gu?"
Zong Zhengqing Qi pulled the rough outer shirt on her body. Although the shirt he was wearing inside was still good silk and satin, the collar of the outer shirt had been rubbing against the delicate skin on his neck, itching and numb. As a result, Zong Zhengqing Qi always couldn't help reaching out to pull his collar.
I don't know what fault Xiao Chu made. He asked the palace people to wait on him, put on such a dress, and took him out of the palace. There was no one around except him and several guards.
Zong Zhengqing Qi couldn't help worrying about whether the other party felt pressure from his recent hard work and wanted to take the emperor out of the palace to kill him.
Thinking so, Zong zhengqingqi also ignored the pain on her neck and stared at Xiao Chu warily, trying to see some clues from each other's expression.
"Now outside the palace, your majesty, please call yourself me. As for our current identity, I am master Xiao, a tourist merchant, and you are my son, young master Xiao."
Yan Chu also changed his regular clothes. Compared with Zong zhengqingqi, who was Jin Zunyu, he was obviously more able to adapt to this dress, which was not luxurious, but definitely not inferior. He took an ancient book and sat on the carriage and looked through it slowly.
"Bold!"
Zong Zhengqing was so angry that the eunuch dared to call himself his father. He was bold and ambitious.
"Yes."
Yan Chu looked away from the ancient books and gave Zong Zhengqing Qi a faint look.
"Hum, only this time."
At that glance, Zong Zhengqing Qi was depressed, and her previous anger suddenly disappeared.
People have to bow their heads under the eaves. Now they are outside the palace, and the bodyguards around them are Xiao Chu's people. It's not good for him to annoy him.
Zong Zhengqing Qi lowered her head and grabbed her outer shirt. Her teeth were creaking, and her anger became a ball.
