Chapter seven hundred and sixty third trouble upper body
Tangning sat in the carriage and remained silent for a long time before asking, "Has Your Majesty been out of the palace today?"
Wei Jian nodded and said, "Today we went out with Your Majesty to relax, and we went to the garden that Your Majesty gave to Princess Pingyang."
Emperor Chen left the palace today and also visited the garden.
He was very angry after he came back. In other words, he saw Zhao Man leaning in his arms and probably saw her kissing him.
Tang Ning rubbed her head and said, "Manager Wei, I suddenly have a headache. How about..."
"A monk who can run away can't run away from the temple. He can hide from the first day of the lunar month but not the fifteenth..." Wei Jian sighed and said, "Master Tang, you'd better come with us to see His Majesty. Otherwise, I'll invite Master Tang later, but
It’s not us anymore…”
If you don't want others to know, you have to do nothing yourself.
If you often walk by the river, how can your shoes not get wet?
If you walk too much at night, you will always encounter ghosts.
…
As Tangning sat on the carriage, countless common sayings came to mind.
Without any precaution or worry, Chen Huang just appeared in the garden where he and Zhao Man were embracing each other.
People always have double standards. There are two different sets of criteria for judging the same thing when it happens to oneself and when it happens to others.
Tang Ning did not want her daughter to be a concubine for others, so Chen Huang's anger was understandable.
When Chen Huang was hit by his father when he stole someone else's daughter, Chen Huang did not rush out at that time, which must have been the result of great restraint.
Seeing that he was looking down, Wei Jian looked at him and comforted him: "Don't worry, Mr. Tang, your Majesty will break two of your legs at most, and he won't really kill you."
Tangning glanced at him and said, "Thanks for the reminder..."
Wei Jian smiled and said: "You're welcome..."
Tang Ning didn't believe that Emperor Chen would break his legs. He knew Emperor Chen well enough. Two years ago, or a year ago, he would definitely not have entered the palace with Wei Jian now.
But at this moment, at this moment, although he was still a little uneasy, he also knew very well that if he could walk in today, he could also walk out.
Otherwise, Emperor Chen would not have sent Wei Jian to summon him.
After entering the palace and arriving at the door of the Royal Study, Tang Ning stood there for a long time before taking a deep breath, slowly walking in, walking to the hall, bowing and saying, "I see your Majesty."
Chen Huang was reading the book and asked without raising his head: "Have you heard about the Jiangnan students making trouble in the Imperial College?"
Emperor Chen was calmer than Tang Ning expected. He did not ask him about today's events. Instead, he talked about the rebellion in the Imperial College. Tang Ning was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said, "Your Majesty, I heard about it."
Chen Huang said: "I leave this matter to you. Is there any problem?"
Tangning was surprised and said: "Your Majesty, hasn't this matter been settled..."
"That's because I took a step back and did not reduce the number of people in Jiangnan!" Chen Huang slammed the memorial on the table and said angrily: "What kind of solution is this?"
If there is no solution, there is no solution. Why are you so angry? Tangning raised her head and glanced at him and said, "Your Majesty, there is no problem."
"Okay, this is what you said!" Emperor Chen glanced at him and said: "I want to reduce the number of people in Jiangnan Province, and I want them to have no objections to this and be convinced by their heart and body. If you can't do it, I can only
You’re asking!”
Huang Chen was venting his anger and deliberately trying to make things difficult, but who told him to deal with the mistake first? Tang Ning sighed secretly and said, "I obey the decree..."
Chen Huang snorted coldly and continued: "The Ministry of Household Affairs is implementing tax reform to simplify taxation and improve taxation efficiency, but the gentry and powerful people in the capital have united to oppose..."
Before Chen Huang could finish speaking, Tang Ning nodded and said, "I'll take care of it too."
He already understood Chen Huang's thoughts. Instead of being spat at by him, it would be better to be more conscious on his own.
Chen Huang continued: "After Prime Minister Zhou resigned, there was only one person in the Shangshu Province, Wang Xiang. Wang Xiang was old and weak, and there was something wrong with the Shangshu Province..."
"I'll take a look at the excerpts from Shangshu Province."
"Chen Guo needs to come up with rules and regulations to trade with the grassland. The important officials in the court have no experience in this..."
"I'll tell you the details."
"Princess Pingyang lives alone outside the palace with no one to take care of her..."
"Princess, I will take care of you..."
…
"Don't let me hear anymore about the riots of Jiangnan students, the gentry and powerful people writing letters, the detailed rules being pushed out again and again, and the Shangshu Province's endless deals. Don't let me hear about Pingyang being wronged, or about the royal princess having an affair with someone.
It is detrimental to the royal family’s face…”
Emperor Chen looked at him and said: "If one thing in this matter is not handled well, I will follow Wei Jian's suggestion and chop off your head. Do you have any questions?"
Tangning bowed and said, "Your Majesty, no."
"If not, get out of the palace and stop bothering me in front of me!"
"I resign..."
…
Tang Ning walked out of the imperial study, and Wei Jian stood at the door, looking at him with a smile.
Tang Ning bowed her hands to him and said, "Thank you, Manager Wei."
Wei Jian smiled and said, "Master Tang, you are polite."
The person closest to Emperor Chen was not Concubine Tang Hui, Concubine Fang Shu, or Prince Duan Kang, but this old eunuch who always seemed kind-hearted.
Sometimes, his words can even change a person's life or death, or the outcome of a court incident.
Forging a good relationship with Wei Jian had only advantages and no disadvantages, so Tang Ning decided to bring him more apples.
The result of entering the palace this time was completely different from Tang Ning's expectation.
Chen Huang was obviously very angry, but he did not vent it out directly. Instead, he channeled it elsewhere and used these things to make things difficult for Tang Ning.
Other things were easy to handle, but there were two things that gave Tangning a headache.
We want to reduce the number of students from Jiangnan, and we want them to be convinced and obedient. How can there be such a reason in the world?
This is equivalent to slapping someone and asking them to say thank you sincerely. Even the emperor cannot be so overbearing.
He had to let the horse run without giving it any grass. Even he knew that if he wanted Tangning to do these things, he would have to give him a daughter first. Jiangnan students were not fools, so this matter was completely contradictory.
The matter of the gentry and powerful people in Beijing is not easy to solve. What the tax changes is their fundamental interests. Without gradual penetration over several years or even more than ten years, it is impossible to achieve peaceful evolution. He wants Tangning to promote this in a short time.
This thing was just to make things difficult for him.
Tang Ning never expected that these two troubles would come around to him.
But this time, he couldn't refuse these troubles at all.
It is easier to deal with the affairs of the Jiangnan students and the gentry and the powerful than to talk to Emperor Chen about his affairs with Zhao Man.
In the imperial study just now, Emperor Chen's meaning was made very clear.
By solving the rebellion of students in the south of the Yangtze River, the dissatisfaction of the gentry and powerful people, the settlement of the trade between Chen Guo and the grassland, and the affairs of the Shangshu Province, he and Zhao Man can forget the blame for the past and the future.
Of course, the premise is that their relationship must be underground and cannot be made public, let alone two people becoming three people, which will disgrace the royal family.
This is Chen Huang's bottom line and cannot be touched.
Zhao Man should be very happy when she hears this news. Although they still can't show their affection in front of others, with Chen Huang's acquiescence, they no longer have to worry.
Tangning didn't take a few steps before she met King Huai waiting in front.
King Huai handed him several thick volumes and said, "My father asked me to hand these over to Mr. Tang."
Tang Ning took the heavy file and looked gloomy.
These files are not only heavy, but also hot to the touch. If something that even King Duan cannot hold, whoever falls into his hands will be unlucky.
King Huai looked at him and asked doubtfully: "Master Tang, what made your father angry?"
Tangning twitched her lips and said, "How is that possible..."
King Huai said: "Then why did my father entrust these two errands to you?"
"Because Your Majesty trusts me." The price for getting Huang Chen's recognition of her relationship with Zhao Man was that she would have to work hard for him for a period of time. Tangning gritted her teeth and said, "I thank Your Majesty, and all the previous emperors...
"
King Huai was stunned and asked in surprise: "What does this have to do with our ancestors?"
Tangning waved her hand and said a little tiredly, "Thank you anyway..."
