Chapter 529 Decentralization (one more)
The emperor heard that Su Rong had come to Beijing, and had been waiting for Su Rong to enter the palace.
Ever since he heard what the old Hu Guogong said about the rebellion against Zhang Ping after he returned to Beijing, the emperor really realized that Su Rong is really a powerful little girl. In particular, she used Zhang Yun to deal with Zhang Ping and subdue 250,000 soldiers and horses. Except for her, no one else could do it.
It can be said that half of the credit for relieving Daliang's internal worries lies with her.
If it wasn't for her, Zhang Ping would not have died, and if Zhang Ping's troops fought against those of the old Huguogong, even if the old Huguogong won in the end, Daliang would suffer heavy losses.
Now, no soldiers are needed, and this is a good result that no one expected.
He waited for a long time, but he was not angry when he heard that Su Rong had gone to the East Palace first. After all, the relationship between Su Rong and Yan Huisheng's cousins was deeper than that of his uncle.
Hearing that Yan Huisheng had been waiting at the gate of the East Palace for a full hour, the emperor felt a little apprehensive, and sighed to Yu An beside him, "He has never greeted me so respectfully. I have been to his East Palace several times, and he came out of his study to greet me every time. In such a cold day, he was willing to wait for Su Rong for more than an hour. Because he didn't know when the little girl would come to the door, he didn't call her in advance. If Su Rong didn't go to the East Palace today Don't you have to wait a day? You are really patient."
Yu An whispered: "Miss Su Qi made great contributions to suppressing the rebellion, and His Royal Highness waited so long. You are naturally different from Miss Su Qi. Every time you go back to the East Palace, you have never been informed. Your Highness doesn't know you are going. When you get the news, won't you come out to greet you?"
In the past, no one knew better than Yu An, the chief **** who followed the emperor, about the matter between His Majesty and the prince.
The emperor nodded, "Yes."
He used to go to the East Palace, of course, for a sneak attack. He had a purpose to see what his crown prince was doing in private during his usual time in the East Palace under his suppression. If he was dissatisfied with him, he called his staff and discussed how to deal with him.
He thought of his past self and fell silent.
Because every time he went to the East Palace, he went quietly, but he didn't catch Yan Huisheng's braids. He was suppressed by him. Most of the time, when facing him, he was mostly silent.
Oh, there is Zhou Gu, who is not alone when he is with him.
Thinking of Zhou Gu, the emperor felt that he was really mistaken. It was the old Huguogong and Yan Huisheng who had eyesight and valued his cultivation. For so many years, Zhou Gu had been under his nose, so he didn't take Zhou Gu seriously. Even if he got the same ranking as Su Xingze, the number one scholar who was handpicked by him in the palace examination, he didn't think that kid was so good.
Knowing how to read is smart, Taifu Qin taught well, he should have been an official in the court, but he didn't want to be an official. He said he would travel for three years. He had tested Su Rong earlier, and thought that it would be best for him to be the king's husband in Southern Chu, so that the relationship between Daliang and Nanchu would be bound together more firmly, but that little girl, Su Rong, seemed to have decided on Ye Guixue, so he had no choice but to give up. Now, if Daliang had such a capable minister as Zhou Gu, he would be really happy.
After Zhang Ping's rebellion was resolved, if Da Wei did not violate the territory and would not fight, he had to think about what reward he would give Zhou Gu when rewarding his meritorious deeds. Perhaps, without him thinking, Yan Huisheng had already thought about it.
He still doesn't know, and no one has told him, that Zhou Gu will not come back after traveling, and Su Rong and Ye Guixue regretted their marriage and re-elected Zhou Gu.
When the emperor was thinking about a lot of things in a mess, he heard someone tell him that the crown prince asked Miss Su Qi to see him.
The emperor immediately said: "Please!"
Yan Huisheng and Su Rong entered the Hall of Mental Cultivation together. The emperor did not lie on the bed as usual, but sat in front of the table. Seeing the two coming in, he smiled and waved to Su Rong kindly, "No need to be polite, get up."
Yu An led the people to put on a show, asking Yan Huisheng to sit with Su Rong.
Su Rong was in the middle of saluting, even though the emperor waved her hand, she still finished the salute, then got up with a smile, sat on the chair, and asked with concern: "Is your majesty recovering?"
"Hey, you girl, you are close to your cousin, but you are so estranged from me." The emperor was helpless, "You can just call me uncle, and you are not allowed to call anything else in the future."
Su Rong is as good as he is, "Okay, uncle, are you in good health?"
As long as the emperor sits in this position for a day, he is the emperor. She should respect, and she still has to respect.
"It's almost done." The emperor smiled with satisfaction, "I heard about you leaving the capital this time, and I want to thank you very much, that **** Zhang Ping died suddenly."
Su Rong smiled, "Daliang has no internal worries, and it is also beneficial for me to go back to Southern Chu. Helping Daliang is helping myself. You don't have to be polite, uncle."
The emperor laughed, "That's what I said, but I still have to thank you. What do you want? I don't think you have much jewelry. So, I will give you the key. You can go to my private warehouse to pick some jewelry?"
Su Rong took out the token of "Like me in person" given by the emperor, "Uncle has already given me good things. This is ten million times more valuable than jewelry. Moreover, there are 300,000 soldiers and horses to lend to me. I am not that greedy, so I dare not take advantage of uncle anymore."
The emperor smiled happily, "This token is only useful in Daliang, but it is useless when it arrives in Southern Chu. To be honest, I was reluctant to lend you 300,000 soldiers and horses. Such jewelry should also be, how can you say that you are taking advantage of it?"
After he finished speaking, he stopped laughing, "This gift from the elders is irresistible."
Su Rongxiao said, "Well, I have poor eyesight, so I don't know what is good. Why don't my uncle help me pick out some random ones, and I will take them with me when I go to Nanchu in the future, and wear them in front of my father and king, and let him see. I am also loved by my mother's uncle, and I have a backer. He can't think that I have no one just because my mother is gone."
The emperor laughed again, "Okay, since you said so, I will help you choose, and someone will send you to Xie's mansion later."
He asked again: "When do you plan to go to Nanchu? I thought that you would go directly to Nanchu, but unexpectedly, you came back to Beijing again?"
Su Rong sighed, "If I go directly to Nanchu with 300,000 soldiers and don't write you an IOU to agree on the date of return, are you at ease? That's 300,000 soldiers, and you may have trouble sleeping and eating."
