After discussing many details with Jia Yucun and others, it was already midnight when Sun Shaozong returned to the mansion.
He was thinking about staying in the study for one night, and rushing to Wucheng Soldiers and Horse Division to hire people early in the morning, when he saw Zhao Zhongji rushing out like a night owl, stepped forward and said respectfully: "Second Master, Uncle specially Let me explain, and let you go to the back flower hall to find him and talk when you come back."
It's such a time, and the cheap brother is still waiting for him to come back, and he has designated something to discuss with him, and 80% of it has nothing to do with today's solar eclipse.
This is really a coincidence, Sun Shaozong is full of crazy thoughts, and he is trying to find someone to vomit.
So he asked Zhao Zhongji for a lantern and rushed to the flower hall in the northwest corner of the backyard alone.
This is the place where Sun Shaozu placed his concubines. Along the way, he saw a bright red lantern hanging high at the door of the wing on both sides. Only the two wing rooms were pitch-dark, and there was no light at all.
According to Sun Shaozu's rules, if he hasn't rested in the mansion, more than a dozen concubines will also stay up all night, and only those who come with menstruation and put up a free battle card can be an exception.
It is estimated that tonight, these dozen or so women have suffered again.
Less gossip.
But he said that he stepped into the flower hall, and Sun Shaozong couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, because the hall was densely filled with large wooden boxes.
At this moment, the cheap eldest brother had a dignified face, sitting on a box in the center. Seeing Sun Shaozong coming in, he didn't speak, but raised his hand and threw a copper key.
The key looks like it is used to open these wooden boxes.
Sun Shaozong was also curious about what was inside, so after he took the key, he chose the outermost box, unscrewed the lock, and lifted the lid of the box, only to see an ingot of silver ingot. neatly arranged in the box.
Sun Shaozong picked up a piece of silver, which should be the standard fifty taels of silver, and the box was divided into two layers, about forty ingots, which should be two thousand taels of silver per box.
In this room, isn't there a 60,000-70,000 tael of white silver
Sun Shaozong's expression suddenly became solemn, and he frowned and asked, "Brother, where did this money come from?"
After listening to the cheap eldest brother sigh, he said quietly: "The king of Zhongshun gave it."
King Zhongshun gave it? !
Sun Shaozong opened his mouth in surprise. Who didn't know that King Zhongshun was famous for taking advantage and not taking losses, but how could he suddenly become a boy who scattered money? If something goes wrong, there must be demons. I'm afraid this money is not so easy to get!
Sun Shaozong couldn't take care of his own thoughts for a while, and hurriedly stepped forward to inquire about the reason.
But it turned out that Sun Shaozu was called to the mansion by King Zhongshun only in the evening.
King Zhongshun first scolded King Beijing in front of him, and then said that since the appointment of the commander was full of twists and turns, the money he received before should naturally be returned to Sun Shaozu as it is.
Sun Shaozu was dumbfounded when he heard it, and hurriedly knelt down and said he didn't dare.
However, under repeated concessions, King Zhongshun still returned the money to him, borrowed more than a dozen carriages from him, and transported the money back to the Sun family with great fanfare.
After listening to these words, Sun Shaozong's brows furrowed even tighter. This was obviously an invitation to buy people's hearts, and since the solar eclipse had just passed, it was really frightening.
He hurriedly asked, "Besides that, didn't King Zhongshun say anything else?"
The cheap brother shook his head and smiled bitterly: "He wants to explain something else, I can feel more at ease, but he tossed and turned, just scolded that Beijing Wang Shuirong."
After a pause, he lowered his voice again, and said with sincerity: "But when I heard that, it seemed like I was pointing at Sang and scolding Huai."
King Zhongshun has always been an unscrupulous man. At the beginning, he was even in front of the two brothers, and he thought of the concubine of King Beijing, but now he only dares to accuse Sang and scold Huai...
Sun Shaozong stretched out his hand and pointed upward, and said in a low voice, "Could it be that there is some discord between the Emperor Taishang and His Majesty? So someone wants to take the opportunity to stir up trouble?!"
The cheap brother shook his head again: "His Majesty has been on the throne for more than ten years, the governor's house in the world has been replaced, and the foundation has long been solid, even if the emperor is dissatisfied, and it coincides with a natural vision, I am afraid that it is difficult to shake your majesty's throne. ."
After speaking, he hesitated again, and muttered to himself: "But King Zhongshun's actions today are obviously a little bit ill and go to the doctor - could it be that there is something hidden that has shaken His Majesty's foundation? That's why King Zhongshun panicked. Position…”
The two brothers really thought of one thing!
But what the secret is, the two of them couldn't figure it out even if they wanted to break their heads.
Since Emperor Guangde took the throne, he has always been conscientious and cautious because of the restraint of the emperor. It was not until the past two years that he established a firm foothold and gradually revealed his governing philosophy.
But this reform and new policy has only just begun, and there should not be any big mistakes, which will be serious enough to endanger the throne of Emperor Guangde.
"Big brother."
Unable to figure out what to do, Sun Shaozong simply raised another imminent question: "If the Supreme Emperor and His Majesty really want to fight each other, how should we deal with it?"
"Should... it shouldn't be like this?"
Sun Shaozu scratched his head while holding his teeth, and after a while, he patted the box next to him, and sighed, "These dozens of large boxes are brought home brightly, what do you think we have to choose from?"
As he said that, he gritted his teeth again, and said with a grim face: "If it really comes to that, you have to sacrifice your life and fight for the riches and honors of the sky!"
Seeing the big brother's statement like this, Sun Shaozong felt a little more at ease.
Although it is unlikely, if it comes to the time when the Emperor Taishang and Emperor Guangde meet each other, like the cheap brother who holds the military power, he is not an irreplaceable middle and high-level general.
Especially the two brothers, who first offended the Queen Mother's family, and were in the same situation as King Beijing's wife and family. If Emperor Guangde and King Zhongshun were defeated, they would definitely be the targets of liquidation.
So when the time comes, you can only do your best!
Fortunately, no matter how you look at it, it should be Emperor Guangde who has a better chance of winning.
Just like this, the two brothers chatted until dawn, and after a simple breakfast, they went to Wucheng Soldiers and Horses and Shenji Camp separately.
Because last year's Longevity Festival, Sun Shaozong had a familiar face in Wucheng Soldiers and Horses, and now he has a relationship with Qiu Yunfei, so naturally he was brought to the front of Qiu Taiwei.
It was only when he saw Qiu Ying that Sun Shaozong couldn't help being taken aback again, but he hadn't seen him for more than a month, and this Taiwei Qiu seemed to be more than ten years old.
If he really had a serious disease, it would be fine for him to gradually age in a month. I'm afraid that he was whiteheaded overnight last night!
