The emperor is embarrassed

Empress Dowager Wei played a role that cannot be ignored in Emperor Wu's ruling career.

The reason may be that Emperor Wu never had a living queen.

For a politician, his wife plays an extremely important role in his ruling process, even the emperor is not immune.

Ming Zhan has no queen, and Queen Mother Wei's means are higher than any queen.

Xu Yingyu's going to the south of the Yangtze River was also proposed by the Empress Dowager Wei.

The Empress Dowager Wei paid more attention to the development of Shanrentang than anyone else. After the Empress Dowager Wei had read the accounts of Shanrentang, it happened that Ming Zhan brought Ruan Hongfei to pay his respects.

"I made a small suggestion at the beginning, but I didn't expect it to be done so well." The Empress Dowager Wei praised her son's vision. Compared with other medicine halls in the imperial capital, Shan Ren Tang has the same pricing.The main reason is that there will be special discounts for the elderly when they see a doctor.Coupled with the fact that all the halls are imperial physicians, only this one living signboard, the business of Shanrentang is much more prosperous than other medicine halls.

The current medicines are not considered huge profits. In addition to subsidizing the elderly, the profit is also quite large.

Ming Zhan took a look at the account book in his mother's hand, and said with a smile, "Don't keep the money in the treasury all the time, it's better to open another Shanrentang."

Empress Dowager Wei had this intention long ago, and said in a gentle voice, "If you want me to say, the capital of the emperor will fall, it's better to open the second Shanrentang in the south of the Yangtze River."

Ming Zhan didn't understand the empress dowager's intention for a while, but he didn't object, "Indeed, people all over the world can't go to the imperial capital to see a doctor. It's good to have a second home in Jiangnan."

Ruan Hongfei and Empress Dowager Wei had a good understanding, smiled at each other, and said to Ming Zhan, "There is no need to look elsewhere. Huaiyang salt course has been successfully restructured. I think Yangzhou is very good."

Ming Zhan was so happy that he waved his hands and said with a smile, "It's not only good, but it has won the hearts of the people of Yangzhou. That's it." He will move to Jiangnan in the future, especially in Huaiyang. There are too many things to clean up. Afraid of losing popular support.Now that the Shanren Hall is opened, it is a symbol of the emperor's benevolence.

Of course, although Shanrentang is the boss of Queen Mother Wei.However, isn't this his Ming Zhan's biological mother, his biological mother's is also his own.Ming Zhan always thought so.

Ming Zhan was a little bit embarrassed, "Just who should I send? Shanrentang should be presided over by my mother all the time. I don't want to interfere. If the court selects officials and assigns them, I'm afraid there will be trouble in the future." Now some people are paying close attention to Shanrentang. Wanting to be nationalized, if Ming Zhan hadn't had a conscience to push the boat along the way, the future of Shanrentang would be unpredictable.

If officials are sent to the south of the Yangtze River to prepare for the construction of Shanren Hall, they may give the courtiers a ready-made excuse.

Empress Dowager Wei already had someone to choose, "I think the girl from Xu Xiang's family is pretty good. I heard from your uncle that she is courageous and resourceful, and she is not afraid of danger. She is quite courageous."

Wei Yingjia is by no means a fool, under the influence of his old fox father, she has quite a strategy.

Wei Yingjia also knows her queen mother and sister quite well to a certain extent. The queen mother admires shrewd and capable women with iron blood, just look at Wu Wan.A lady like Xu Yingyu, who has received aristocratic education and is courageous and insightful, is obviously more suitable for his queen mother's sister.

Regarding the assassination of Shanrentang, the person who cared the most was the Queen Mother Wei, so naturally she called her younger brother to inquire about it.

When the Empress Dowager Wei sighed, "I want to build a semicolon in the south of the Yangtze River, but this kind of thing happened to me." Wei Yingjia was selfish and pushed the calm-headed and brutal Xu Yingyu up, and said with a smile, "my brother Look, Miss Xu's family is really no worse than Miss Wu. Besides, Miss Xu is the daughter of Xu Xiang's lover, she has been influenced by her ears and eyes, and she has such good qualifications. My sister's little advice is also an arm."

Empress Dowager Wei paid attention to Xu Yingyu.

The Empress Dowager Wei is not like the Empress Dowager, who keeps her ears to the affairs of the court and just enjoys the honor and lives in a muddleheaded way.

Amid Ming Zhan's high trust, Empress Dowager Wei has a deep understanding of the court affairs.

She naturally also knows the arrogance of the Jiangnan family.

Empress Dowager Wei wanted to build the Shanren Hall in the south of the Yangtze River in order to help her son buy people's hearts, appease the people in the south of the Yangtze River, and stabilize the throne.It's just that, as Ming Zhan said, Empress Dowager Wei doesn't have many available people. After all, the tacit understanding between mother and son is that Shanrentang must never have anything to do with the government.

The Xu family is a well-known family in Huaiyang. The Empress Dowager Wei also heard about Xu Bingsheng's case.

Empress Dowager Wei didn't take the Xu family seriously. Empress Dowager Wei was born in the Marquis Mansion and was taught by Empress Fang for many years. She knew better than anyone what a family was like.The embarrassment for Empress Dowager Wei was that Xu San was also from the Xu family, and what was even worse was that Xu San was the emperor's teacher.

These days, no one dares to kill his teacher.

The emperor is no exception.

Moreover, Empress Dowager Wei watched Ming Zhan's governing method with cold eyes. Ming Zhan has been reusing Xu San's family and indifferent to Xu's family.

The son's choice is already very clear, but for the seasoned Queen Mother Wei, Ming Zhan has given too much grace to Xu San's family.But Xu San never showed enough loyalty.

Therefore, Empress Dowager Wei chose Xu Yingyu to go to the south of the Yangtze River.

She had to see the loyalty of Xu San's family, it was not so easy to be an emperor teacher.

Today, when Empress Dowager Wei announced who would go to Jiangnan, Ming Zhan hesitated, "Ms. Xu was frightened just now, and she is not well yet. Is it not appropriate to let her go to Jiangnan at this time?"

"Your Majesty has used the Xu family so much. This is a blessing that many people can't even hope for. What's wrong?" The Empress Dowager Wei smiled slightly, took a sip of the tea cup and said, "I think Miss Xu is pretty good. It’s not like letting her go right away. If she’s not in good health, just go after getting better, it’s not a hindrance.”

Although Ming Zhan said he didn't like women sexually, he was the one who truly cared for women.As soon as he encountered a woman, he would be a bit of a mother-in-law, "Has Miss Xu ever gone out? Can she do it? A few days ago, Mrs. Xu's wife sent a servant to pick up Xu Yingyu and go to the family. Xu San refused, and even for this It's a lawsuit. Now, if she goes, will it be safe?"

"It's not that she's alone. Don't worry, send her two reliable guards." The Queen Mother Wei glanced at Ruan Hongfei and said to Ming Zhan, "Didn't you tell me that this girl is a powerful and scheming girl?" ?"

"I heard about Miss Xu's reconciliation with Li. Why did Xu San let her work in Shanrentang? In the final analysis, it's just a female official. In the future, Miss Xu can discuss another marriage." Queen Mother Wei smiled. , She would never let her subordinates suffer, so she said, "If Miss Xu is smart enough, I will secure her a big matchmaker in the future, and I will settle Xu San's worries."

Ming Zhan was still hesitating, Ruan Hongfei said impatiently, "What a fool! Could it be that only the Xu family has the advantage, and you should suffer! How can this Xu San be so charming! I'll give you some useless news, say two It sounds nice, shed two drops of fake tears, and he can stand on the dry shore and be a good person? I am afraid that when you eradicate the Xu family in the future, Xu San will have to intercede with the family and shed a few tears to buy people's hearts. If you are a good person, you will not I will definitely accept your favor."

Empress Dowager Wei said softly, "Ming Zhan, a ruler cannot always show kindness. At critical times, he should pay equal attention to kindness and prestige."

"Before, you handled Xu Bingsheng and Xu Bingzhong's matter extremely well."

Under the persuasion of his wife, Ming Zhan had to surrender unconditionally.

The matter of Xu Yingyu's going to the south of the Yangtze River was decided accordingly.

The Xu family had no room to refuse the Queen Mother Wei's order.

Xu San understood what Empress Dowager Wei meant.

You, Xu Sangui, are the emperor's teacher. With this status, as long as you don't rebel in your life, you will have no worries.

However, if you want to be rich, you have to show sincerity.

In the choice between the imperial court and the Xu family, you not only have to make spiritual choices, but also physical actions.

If it is so easy to vote for the name certificate, the world will be full of good people.

Although the family has no kindness towards Xu San, he was born and grew up here.When the family was in dire straits, Xu San was lazy to lend a helping hand.However, normal people would not be willing to throw stones into a well.

The imperial court, the emperor, would not think so.

Xu San called Xu Yingyu to the study to talk, and told her daughter a lot, and brought several reliable guards recruited by her to her side.

Seeing her father's melancholy brows, Xu Yingyu made some guesses, and advised Xu San, "Father, this is the end of the matter. The Empress Dowager attaches great importance to her daughter, and she can only do her best to handle the job well. As long as our family is loyal, the Empress Dowager It will not treat our family badly."

Wealthy future... Xu San sighed softly.

Xu Yingyu said coldly, "Father booed and sighed, worrying so much. If my family and father switch, my family will be on father's side, I'm afraid my father won't be embarrassed."

"You child, how can you say such a thing." These words really eased Xu San's heart, and all kinds of past events floated on his mind.

"Isn't what my daughter is telling the truth?" Xu Yingyu smiled and leaned on her father's shoulder, and said warmly, "Father, don't worry. My daughter is very happy to have the opportunity to contribute to the family. The conscience of the family has never been used For us, my father can't bear to exchange his family for wealth, but my family has been thinking of dragging father into the water."

"Brothers, younger brothers, and daughters in the family, the one who can rely on is the father." Xu Yingyu said softly, "The one who can rely on the father is Jun En. My father was born in Sanyuan, and he also has a passion for serving the country. Now that the king has reused it, my father only cares about it." Doing what you can do will not waste your father's years of studying hard."

Xu San patted his daughter in relief, and said with a smile, "Now you are the one who persuaded me."

"Father is too soft-hearted."

"It's not my family that I'm worried about." The son is not useful, Xu San simply shared his thoughts with his daughter, "The family has no kindness to us at all, it is rich or poor, we just don't know."

"In today's world, don't you know? No matter how wrong the family is, it's not wrong. You went to Jiangnan this time to work for the Empress Dowager, but if you liquidate in the future, if we kill relatives so righteously, I'm afraid we will be cast aside by the world. .” Xu San sighed.

Xu Yingyu said, "Father must be the emperor's teacher, and our whole family has devoted their lives to the emperor."

"As long as you make meritorious service, you will have face in front of the emperor. With face, father, I am not afraid that the emperor will not choose our Xu family out of the quagmire."

"After all, if the emperor's teacher has a bad reputation, it will not be of any benefit to the emperor."

"Now, the second and third younger brothers are all used by the emperor. The queen mother also has a good eye for me, and all civil and military officials in the court will see it. If the emperor doesn't care about affection in the future, our Xu family will only suffer a bad reputation."

"If your reputation is bad, you don't want to die. Wu Wan is still alive."

"However, if the emperor is so cold-hearted and cold-hearted, it will chill the hearts of civil and military officials in the court."

"Father, the emperor is extremely smart, not such a fool."

Xu Yingyu persuaded her one sentence after another, and in the end, it really relieved Xu San's knot a little bit.The father and daughter discussed for a long time, until late at night, Xu Sanfang sent his daughter back to his room, and he also went to his wife's place to rest.

I just hope the family is safe.Xu San prayed secretly.
