The four hundred and ninetieth chapter of the decision to carry forward

Chapter 496: Promotion decision

After the court was dispersed, Yinzuo's heart was a little nervous. It was not because of the opposition of the fourth brother and the Eight Banners' powerful people. To be honest, Yinzuo had long expected that a group of Eight Banners' powerful people would seek their own selfish interests by the name of opposing the auction of Eight Banners' assets. Yinzuo had already taken precautions, but Yinzuo still did not expect that the storm would be so big that all the Eight Banners' powerful people in the court jumped out, and even Prince Jian, who had always been concerned about the government affairs of the court, was involved. This made Yinzuo feel a little uncomfortable. His steps when he retreated from the court were also sank, and he walked straight up to the study with his head on his head.

Shangshu is not only where Yinzuo handles daily government affairs, but also a place for underage princes to go to school. Yinzuo has always admired this ancestral system and has never planned to cancel it again. However, because Yinzuo has more offices in Yangxin Hall and fewer offices in Shangshuo, the younger brothers have few opportunities to attend court, and they are basically just listening to the class of the Hanlin Academy in Shangshuo. Today, Yinzuo was uneasy, and some of them were gone and walked casually, and then he arrived at the door of Shangshuo. Suddenly, he was awakened by a noise in Shangshuo's study - Shangshuo was quarreling. When he heard again, what he was discussing was the debate on agriculture and commerce, so he stopped at the door and listened.

"...Businesses make up for the shortcomings of farming, but they are not short of small ways. If there are no vendors, things will not flow, the people will be uneasy, and the words of abolishing merchants will be very wrong!" This high-pitched voice was the words of the third son of Yinzuo, Hongchen, who was born by Wang Xifeng, who was fourteen years old. Perhaps because of hereditary reasons, he has been very fond of business since childhood. He has a deep relationship with his grandfather Wang Hao, the chief general of the "Eight Banners Business", and has a lot of research on business matters.

"What the third brother said is that the way of the saint is to value agriculture rather than commerce. The book says: Shang is a small way. Although there is success and fear that mud will be afraid of the mud. Our dynasty is strong and the people will live and work in peace. There are many farmers, and Shang is light. Therefore, it should be based on agriculture and the Shang is the end!" Hongning, the fifth prince who was thirteen years old, immediately refuted, citing the scriptures and speaking with the classics.

"That's right, the fifth brother is right." The fourth prince Hongliang said in helping.

"Stop making arguing, why not make arguing. What's there to be arguing about? The Emperor has said many times. Business and farmers should not be neglected, it is important." The sixth prince Hongshen, who was only six years old, shouted in a slight voice.

"Go, what do you know about the little brat?" The fourth prince Hongliang said without hesitation: "There is no important truth. Everything cannot be separated from the word "reason". There are always points in order, importance, do you understand?"

...

Brother Qizi was yelling at the top of his voice. But he never heard the Hanlin Academy's bachelor's face come forward to stop him. Yinzuo's face turned pale and turned blue. He stood at the door and thought about it, but he raised his foot and walked into the study room and hummed coldly. He stood aside with an expressionless face. Brother Qizi was quarreling, but he didn't expect Yinzuo to appear suddenly and calm down immediately. They stood stupidly for a while before they could react. Everyone knelt on the side in a panic, not even daring to speak out.

Okay, the discussion outside has not settled, and the family has started to make trouble first. It’s really damn! Yinzuo was already in a bad mood and suddenly became a little more irritable. He ignored the little brothers of the starter and walked straight to the top and sat down, narrowed his eyes. He stared at today’s lecturer Wang Shichen, a bachelor of the Hanlin Academy, and sneered: “What’s the good class Wang Aiqing taught? Why? Let me follow and listen to what?”

Wang Shichen was the top scholar in the first year of Yuanzhuo. He has always been a little timid, but his talent is good at learning, especially because of his famous poetry and prose. Yinzuo asked him to teach poetry lessons to his brothers, but he never arranged for him to explain the Four Books and Five Classics. Today, he talked about business and farming. It was him who started arguing with him. He had no courage to show off his airs as a respected elder to stop his brothers' noise. At this time, he was furious. He immediately knelt down on the ground and said in a trembling voice: "Master, I don't have any, I dare not..."

"I don't dare, I think you are very brave." Yinzuo snorted coldly and said, "Wang Aiqing is a great talent. My temple is too small to accommodate Aiqing, a great Bodhisattva. Wang Aiqing would better go high somewhere else."

"Master, I..." Wang Shichen knelt on the ground with sweat all over his head, his words were incomplete. Yinzuo was too lazy to pay attention to it, so he waved his hand and said, "Go." Wang Shichen kowtowed a few times with a pale face, stood up, and stumbled out of the door, his back seemed extremely desolate.

"Your Ma, it's not the fault of Master Wang, it's the head of the son-in-law." When the third prince Hongchen saw that Wang Shichen was dismissed from office on the spot, he was a little anxious. He plucked up his courage, stepped forward, kowtowed and said, "It's the son-in-law and the fourth brother, and the fifth brother disagree, so he started arguing. It has nothing to do with Master Wang. If the emperor ma, he should punish Master-in-law. "

"Hmm." Yinzuo snorted without comment, but the chill on his face was still heavy. Hong Ning, who was kneeling behind, didn't even dare to say anything loudly, and his head was low, and he didn't even dare to look up at Yinzuo.

"I know you are wrong? Okay, since you are wrong, you should be fined." Yinzuo said with a dark face: "I will punish you for half a year's salary. Hongning and Hongliang each have a salary of one year, get out of here!" The little brother of the son saw that Yinzuo was in a bad mood, so he didn't dare to stay any more. He kowtowed and left the study room in a flash.

It's really nonsense. The palace has become like this. It seems that the controversy outside must be even more stormy. This matter is probably difficult to deal with. Grandma, the other side of the fourteenth one is still not sure what the battle is like. If there is a big victory, it can at least disperse the public opinion, otherwise the chaos will probably be even bigger. When Yinzuo thought of the battle to bet on national fortune thousands of miles away, his heart became more irritable. He had no intention of criticizing the memorials and was stunned in the study.

"Master, the second prince handed over the sign and said he wanted to meet the Master." Taking advantage of Yinzuo's moment of being stunned, Gao Nianying, the eunuch of the Sili Li, walked to Yinzuo with a slight touch and said carefully.

Oh? Hongyang is here. This kid doesn't say a word at the court meeting today. What are the ideas he has come here now? Yinzuo pondered for a moment and said, "Stop it."

"Yes." Gao Nianying responded in a low voice and hurriedly left the room. After a while, she led the second prince Hongyang into the upper study room.

"My son bowed to the emperor." As soon as Hongyang entered the study room, he took a few steps and kowtowed respectfully to pay his respects.

"I'm fine, after that, what's the point of seeing me?" Yinzuo was in a bad mood and was too lazy to talk too much, so he just asked indifferently.

Hongyang looked at Yinzuo's face, gritted his teeth and said, "Report to Emperor Ah, I am here for Xiao Yao's business."

"Huh?" Yinzuo didn't expect that Hongyang came so hurrying for such a mess. He was stunned for a moment, looked at Hongyang carefully for a while, and suddenly laughed and said, "Okay, let's just say I'll listen to it. I want to know Xiao Yao's plan."

"When I say to Emperor Ama, I think Mr. Xiao is really a talented person, but I don't hide it from Emperor Ama. After I appreciate Mr. Xiao's help, I benefited a lot. My son is really reluctant to let Mr. Xiao leave. However, my son cannot make Mr. Xiao regret for his own selfish interests for the rest of his life. Moreover, this matter is related to the happiness of my elder sister, so I am willing to recommend Mr. Xiao as an official in another place." Hongyang said calmly.

The importance of a qualified adviser to the princes is self-evident. If Yinzuo had not been Wu and Lin's two major advisers helped each other, the possibility of ascending the throne was very small. It would be difficult to say whether he could save his life. At this time, when Hongyang was about to let Xiao Yao go, he felt a big surprise. He stared at Hongyang for a while before he came to his senses. His eyes were sharp as a knife and said, "Yang'er, I ask you: Is this your own meaning or Xiao Yao's decision?"

Hongyang kowtowed and said, "Return to Emperor Ama's dialect, this is my decision. My son cannot bear to see Mr. Xiao get thinner, so..." Before Hongyang could finish his words, Yinzuo waved his hand and interrupted, "What are Xiao Yao's plans?"

Hongyang shook his head and said, "Mr. Xiao has not decided yet, but I think Mr. Xiao is a talented person. If it is ruined by the word "love", it would be a pity."

The word "love" cannot be avoided by sages. Yinzuo knew this. Although Hongyang's words were not complete, Yinzuo knew that in eight out of ten, Xiao Yao would choose to follow Hongyang and give up Princess Yixue. This is the so-called "scholars die for their confidants." However, in this way, Princess Yixue's troubles will be great. With Princess Yixue's temper, Yinzuo really didn't know how to explain to her. If you accidentally get a big storm in the harem.

Hongyang's proposal was not accurate, nor was it accurate for Yinzuo - from the perspective of his father, Yinzuo naturally hoped that his children would be happy, but from the perspective of the emperor, he could not see Hongyang suffering a secret loss because of his lack of counselors. Yinzuo was upset about how to decide. Yinzuo glanced at Hongyang and said impatiently: "I understand, you should step down first."

Hongyang kowtowed respectfully, got up and left the study room. Yinzuo slapped the desk suddenly and said loudly: "Come here, Xuan Fangbao meets you!"
