Madam You relieved Feng Junhou from his anger, and now she offered to relieve Feng Junhou's worries.
Feng was so happy that he quickly hugged her and explained in detail the troubles he had been having these past few days.
At the same time, he repeatedly emphasized how inseparable is the Zhendong General Mansion from Mrs. Right.
Since Mrs. Right left home, he has been counting on his fingers every day to figure out how Mrs. Right can return in glory.
When Zhang Xiaosi heard what she said, he felt both fond and angry at the same time.
What I like is that what this man said is enough to prove his importance in Feng Mansion.
What’s annoying is…
Zhang Xiaosi bit this guy hard, and then asked bitterly:
"So, you thought of looking for me because you couldn't handle so many official duties?"
"Uh, ah ha, how is that possible?"
After being tired, Feng Junhou originally thought of squinting for a while, but after hearing this, he immediately became excited:
"I mean, there are too many official duties, which weigh me down and leave me with no time to spare. I even have no time to go to the palace to find you."
As he said this, he patted Zhang Xiaosi's smooth back and said, "Si Niang, you'd better help me think of a solution quickly."
Zhang Xingyi also knew that this was not the time to pursue the case.
After all, the two of them are in the palace at this time, not at the house. In addition, they have been delayed for too long just now, and I am afraid that my sister will look for me later.
She felt that she had finally regained some strength, so she stood up and groped for clothes while saying:
"You are usually said to be far-sighted. Why do you have no clue when it's your turn?"
"You all know that the emperor's brother-in-law brought the Chancellor's Desk here, why don't you know how to push all the official affairs of the house to the Chancellor's Desk?"
"You have the authority to deal with the affairs of the Chancellor, and let the Chancellor's Desk handle it. How dare the Chancellor's Desk hide the results from you? Don't we still have to send someone to tell you?"
"Huh?" Feng Junhou, who was still lying down, immediately sat up after hearing this, "Is this still possible?"
"What do you mean it can still be like this? It should be called this is how it should be!"
The right lady buttoned up her coat and replied:
"The Shangshu Taiwan is responsible for handling the government affairs of the Han Dynasty. The official affairs and major matters in the government must be handled by the Shangshu Taiwan."
"If there is anything that the Shangshutai does not care about, it will be under the control of the Yongzhou Governor's Office and the Sili Xiaowei Office."
"Just because of the special period and special circumstances, everything has always been under the control of Zhendong General Mansion."
"Now that the emperor's brother-in-law has returned to the old capital, everything will finally get back on track, so it's best to hand over the official duties you have in hand."
"What Madam You said is very reasonable!" Feng Junhou clapped his hands and couldn't help but praise, "If it hadn't been for Si Niang's reminder, I wouldn't have thought of this level."
No wonder when talking to Adou, he would mention Jiang Wan and Shangshutai, but Feng Junhou didn't hear the underlying meaning.
Ashamed, ashamed!
"Why didn't His Majesty say anything? And Jiang Wan, the Zhendong General's Mansion did this to upset the Chancellor's desk, but he didn't say a word?"
Feng Junhou was a little annoyed. He had worked so hard for so many days in vain, and he probably had the reputation of being a power-hungry person.
"Because Your Majesty doesn't want Alang to be unhappy!"
The right lady put on her veil, sat on the couch again, leaned next to Feng Junhou, and said softly:
"The Prime Minister and A Lang jointly defeated the Bingzhou in Guanzhong and Hedong. Now that the Prime Minister has gone, when it comes to matters involving these three places, everyone in the court must give A Lang some face."
"Alang is the most trusted person by the emperor's brother-in-law. He never made any mistakes when he was guarding Guanzhong."
"How long has it been since the emperor's brother-in-law arrived in Chang'an? He suddenly took over power as soon as he said it. Even if Alang doesn't mind, what will people think if he is seen by others?"
It would have been fine if it had been taken back to the emperor, but it was sent to the Chancellor's desk.
General Zhendong has the power to serve as a minister!
Isn't this a slap in the face of General Zhendong?
It's just a slap in the face, I'm afraid that some people will think wildly and think that the emperor wants the rabbit to die and the dog to be cooked, and the bird to be hidden.
"If I were to be a concubine, there would be no need to worry about this matter. There are Wei thieves in the east and Wu Kingdom in the southeast. There will be many wars in the future!"
"As long as the war breaks out, you, the general of Zhendong, will definitely go on an expedition, and naturally there will be no way to deal with matters in Guanzhong."
"How to take it back and where to receive it at that time is not a matter of a word from the emperor's brother-in-law?"
After Mrs. Right explained the emperor's psychology, she changed the topic and mentioned the chancellery again:
"As for Shangshu Ling Jiang Gongyan, he is not a person who likes power to begin with, and he is also old. What is the purpose of letting him fight for power with you?"
As he said that, he glanced at Feng Junhou:
"Besides, it's normal for General Zhendong's Mansion to overwhelm the Chancellor's desk, and it's not a shameful thing."
General Zhendong has the right to know the decision of Shangshutai. Does Shangshuling have the right to know the decision of General Zhendong?
So, isn’t it normal to press one end?
General Zhendong is still young, and he has already begun to work as a minister.
In the future, there is a high probability that we will have to record the affairs of the minister, if nothing unexpected happens.
On the other hand, Jiang Wan is not as good as Feng Zhendong in military merit and official position, and at such an age, how many more years can he be a minister?
When Mrs. Right said this, she concluded in a leisurely tone:
"Feng Langjun is a man of clever words, cruel and merciless Xiao Wenhe, and a sinister ghost king who is far-sighted and does not ask for kindness."
"Not to mention Jiang Gongyan, just look at the government and the public, how many of them dare to lose face to Feng Junhou? Do you think everyone is Wei Yan?"
"Moreover, don't Jiang Gongyan and A Lang already have a friendship? He is acting like this just to take the opportunity to show his goodwill."
Although Feng Junhou has the reputation of being a "good person who gives kindness without asking for it", who dares to bully him as a good person?
After listening to Mrs. Right's analysis of the twists and turns here, Feng Junhou suddenly realized.
It was inevitable that he would have to formally participate in the affairs of the court.
But for some reason, he always felt that Mrs. Right’s words were a bit awkward to his ears, but after seeing him ponder for a moment, he suddenly said:
"It makes perfect sense to show kindness to a good person without asking for it. When did this statement come out? How come I didn't know it?"
"Also, why do you want to compare it with that clever words, seductiveness and ruthlessness?"
We were still talking about business, but when Madam You heard Feng Junhou ask this question in a bad tone, she couldn't help laughing.
She lay softly on Feng Junhou's shoulders, beat him a few times, laughed "goose-goose" for a while, and said intermittently:
"No, it's just giving favors without asking for them!"
"Teach the Nanzhong Yi people to pick tung trees, grow sugar cane, and pick tea leaves, teach the Liangzhou Hu people to raise cattle and sheep, help them divide their pastures, and reduce disputes."
"Let Jingzhou exchange coarse sugar for brown sugar to prevent them from starving. We also sold them grain and rented weapons and armor to the Wu people..."
"Oh, by the way, the woolen materials sold to the Wei thieves in Chang'an back then were not even rare in Shu..."
"Who dares to say that Alang is not a kind person by showing kindness without expecting others to repay him? Haha, hahaha!"
While talking, Madam You couldn't help but laugh, and fell down in Feng Junhou's arms and rolled around.
Feng Junhou put his arms around him to prevent Mrs. Right from rolling off the bed, and said innocently:
"They did make a lot of money at that time. Just like Qin Bo, the official of the Wu State School a few days ago, he even thanked me!"
The right lady, who had already regained her breath, was almost laughing again.
If it weren't for the fear that the Queen would come looking for her at any time, they would have rolled onto the couch together again.
The two of them finally put on their clothes and walked out of the side hall. There was no one at the door.
I don’t know if Huang Hu left long ago or is secretly guarding him in the distance.
Before the two parted ways, Mrs. Right warned Feng Junhou:
"Anyway, Alang, feel free to go find Jiang Gongyan. You have had many dealings with him before. You should know that this man is really a rare gentleman."
"If Alang wants to gain power, he will definitely not fight with you, but if you hand over these matters to the Chancellor, not only will he not refuse, but he will also handle it well for Alang."
"If this matter spreads, others will say that Alang knows how to advance and retreat, and respects rules."
"Now it seems that Alang has taken a step back, but as the saying goes, if he is upright, he will not do what he is told; if he is not upright, he will not follow orders."
"When Alang exercises authority in the future, why should we worry about others not following orders?"
Feng Junhou nodded in agreement.
The right lady then turned and left.
Then Huang Hu appeared out of nowhere.
"I would like to ask Chamberlain Huang to lead the way. I would like to go and say goodbye to His Majesty and leave the palace."
Huang Hu smiled all over his face:
"Going back to the king, your majesty left a message, saying that he was going to talk to the queen. After the king and Madam Zhang have finished reminiscing about old times, they can just leave the palace."
ah?
Like this?
Feng Junhou was stunned and quickly saluted in a certain direction of Weiyang Palace:
"I thank your Majesty."
To be honest, Adou, the brother-in-law, is really good.
He is a nice person, has a nice temperament, is loyal and humane.
It's a pity that he is the emperor. Otherwise, Feng Junhou would have to drink wine with him and have a kiss with him.
At this time, a gust of cool wind blew, making people finally feel a little cool.
Looking up at the sky, it turned out that the sun was already heading west.
But seeing Feng Junhou thank Huang Hu again:
"I will always be able to see Siniang. Huang Neishi has also made many contributions. I will always thank you here."
Huang Hu quickly returned the courtesy: "Old slave, I just obeyed your majesty's instructions and did not dare to take credit."
"That only shows that Chamberlain Huang has the trust of His Majesty."
Feng Junhou stepped forward and held Huang Hu's hand, and several bills were quietly stuffed into the other person's hand.
Huang Hu knew what was in his hand without looking.
This is not the first time he has received a ticket from Feng Junhou.
Feng Junhou was a forthright man, and even if he just passed on a message, his hands would not be empty when he returned to the palace.
"It's all your majesty's love. I feel ashamed to receive it, and I feel ashamed to receive it."
Huang Hu said he was ashamed of his modesty. When he turned his hand, he found that there was no trace of the note, which was completely disrespectful.
"The prince is about to leave the palace, so I will send you off."
"I'm not busy, I have something else to do and I have to go to the Chancellor's Desk."
All platforms and pavilions are palace buildings.
Those who are in Taiwan are within the forbidden province.
The pavilion is located in the palace city.
In other words, the office of Shangshutai is in the palace.
This can be regarded as a characteristic of China's two thousand years of imperial system. For example, the cabinet of the Xing Dynasty and the military department of the Qing Dynasty are all inherited from the same origin.
Because these central power organs with different names are directly responsible to the emperor.
As the saying goes, strike while the iron is hot, Feng Junhou received the advice from his right wife and happened to stop by the Chancellor's Desk.
"The old slave will lead the way for you."
"I'm just afraid of troublesome Mr. Huang."
"Your Majesty specially left this old slave behind to lead the way for you."
"That would be disrespectful."
"Your Majesty, please."
Huang Hu was probably one of the people in the imperial palace who was most familiar with Shangshutai.
As the emperor's trusted chamberlain, he would often take the emperor's hand-written edicts to the minister's desk or deliver the emperor's oral edicts to the minister's desk.
Watching Huang Hu arrive at the Shangshu table, the Shangshulang on duty came over to greet him:
"Housekeeper Huang, your Majesty has another edict?"
This made Feng Junhou look at Huang Hu with a bit of surprise.
On the basis of learning from the lessons of the Later Han Dynasty, the prime minister was still very powerful in suppressing the eunuchs.
Although the Prime Minister is no longer here, people like Jiang Wan, Fei Yi, and Dong Yun are all selected by the Prime Minister to assist the Emperor.
As long as they are here, the eunuchs in the palace will basically be unable to change the world.
That's why Feng Junhou was a little surprised when he saw that the minister at the minister's desk was so polite to Huang Hu.
However, Huang Hu's next move cleared up Feng Junhou's confusion.
Although he was the emperor's most trusted chamberlain, Huang Hu was still extremely polite to the minister who was just guarding the door:
"No, no, this time, I am..."
Before Huang Hu finished speaking, Shang Shulang had already seen clearly the face of Feng Junhou standing behind him.
But seeing Shang Shulang's eyes suddenly widen, he suddenly stepped forward and bowed deeply to Feng Junhou:
"You, pay your respects to the lord."
Feng Junhou laughed, helped Wang You up, and said:
"Honghua, why are you here? How long have you been in Chang'an? Why didn't you tell me?"
Wang You, son of Wang Fu.
Wang Fu followed the late emperor on his eastern expedition and was killed in the battle of Yiling.
Wang You was taken care of by his uncle Wang Shi. Later, Wang Shi followed the Prime Minister on his southern expedition and went south alone in advance to persuade Yong Kai, one of the rebel leaders in the south, to surrender.
Unexpectedly, Yong Kai's actions were not secret, and Meng Huo discovered it, and the king died for his country.
It can be said that the Wang family in Qixian County is a loyal supporter of the Han Dynasty.
Fortunately, before Wang Shi went south to persuade Yong Kai to surrender, he entrusted himself and his brother Wang Fu's family to the prime minister.
When the Prime Minister visited Feng Junhou in prison, Wang You was one of the people he brought with him, which shows the Prime Minister's care for Wang You.
However, Qi County, where the Wang family is located, belongs to Guanghan County.
The most famous surname in Guanghan is Li, and it is also one of the largest aristocratic families in Shu.
Since the Wang family and the Li family live in the same county, they are naturally closely related.
Over the years, Wang You did not know whether it was to avoid suspicion or for other reasons. In addition, Feng Junhou was fighting in the south and north, so he rarely returned to Shu.
Therefore, Wang You, who was in Shu, did not have close contact with Feng Junhou, who had been leading the army abroad.
To this day, Feng Junhou occupies a high position, and I don’t know how many people want to have a relationship with him.
With Wang You's temperament, it was naturally even more impossible for him to pay a special visit to Feng Junhou, lest he be thought to be following his influence.
Unexpectedly, when Feng Junhou saw him, he would show great enthusiasm, just like when the young people met in Jincheng.
This made Wang You feel hot in his heart.
He lowered his head slightly and explained:
"After the death of the Prime Minister, my younger brother was elected to the Shangshu Terrace and served as a minister. This year he became a minister and followed His Majesty to Chang'an."
"Nowadays, Shangshutai is busy with affairs, and I haven't been able to spare any time, so I didn't go to visit my brother. I hope your brother won't be surprised."
We hadn’t seen each other for many years, and I thought we had become unfamiliar. Unexpectedly, Feng Junhou’s word “Honghua” made Wang You feel like he had returned to the past, and he even called himself his younger brother.
"Of course you have to blame, how can you not blame me? You didn't look for me when you came to Chang'an. If I hadn't come here today, how long would you have planned to hide it from me?"
Feng Junhou held Wang You's arms and said, "No matter how busy you are, you can't do this."
Feng Junhou was so enthusiastic about Wang You for no other reason than his loyalty to the Wang family.
He has always had great respect for loyalty and martyrdom.
"My little brother realizes his mistake."
"As long as you admit your mistake, I will host a banquet at my house tomorrow, and you must come."
"Yes." Wang You finally raised his head and smiled: "But I don't know why my brother came to the Chancery today."
"I'm looking for Jiang Shangshu Ling. I want to discuss something with him."
"Brother, please sit down first. I will go and report to the minister."
"good."
Turning around, he saw Huang Huzheng looking at him with a strange expression. Feng Junhou couldn't help but ask:
"Why is Mr. Huang doing this?"
Huang Hu's expression turned into admiration, and he cupped his hands and said:
"Back then I heard that your lord was the first prince in Shu, and all the young talents called him brother. Now that I have seen it with my own eyes, I know that what I have been told is true."
Feng Junhou pointed at Huang Hu and laughed heartily again:
"You are so good at talking, and it makes people happy to hear it. No wonder His Majesty keeps you by his side."
