Chapter 633 Do Bad Things With Kindness

Sun Lan was very surprised when he heard what his father said.

When she first arrived in the capital, her two elder brothers were not there. Sun Lan and her father could be regarded as "depending on each other". At that time, her father's evaluation of Zhu Hao was very unbearable. Why did she have a crush on Zhu Hao in less than half a year? How about such a big change?

According to Sun Jiao, this is to train Zhu Hao to be his successor.

Is it because of my relationship?

Can it be said that because of his own existence, he made his father embarrassed?

"Let's go back."

Sun Jiao sighed, "Even if he really can't stay in the Imperial Academy this time, no matter which yamen he goes to, my father thinks that he can make some achievements, and his career prospects are no less than that of my father. But I'm afraid that he is young. With power, the mentality is out of balance, which requires you to remind him more by his side and be your good helper."

It is also fulfilling the responsibility of being a wife, so why should I be a good wife.

Sun Lan didn't know what to say.

After my father became an official again, he seemed to be more nagging than ever.

Sun Lan asked, "Father, did your daughter make things difficult for you? In fact, you don't have to... accommodate him."

Sunjiao looked at his daughter with loving eyes, and said with a smile: "Don't think too much, the change of my father's respect for Taoism is not because of you, but after getting along with him, I know that he is a material for great things, his talent and ability It’s because my father has only seen him in his life. Go back and live a good life, don’t let your wild thoughts affect the harmony of your little husband and wife.”

……

……

Sun Jiao sent his daughter away.

There are some waves in my heart.

He is indeed less enthusiastic now in the court, and he is always thinking about when he can return to Anlu to live a free life. In the past, he had no idea about cultivating successors, but after getting to know Zhu Hao, he suddenly wanted Zhu Hao to be himself. The spokesperson of the court after he became an official.

Who doesn't want to recruit talents when they discover talents?

Sun Jiao is also not exempt.

Besides, Zhu Hao is his son-in-law, so what's wrong with putting Zhu Hao in his own camp?
This time he stood up for Zhu Hao and wanted to keep Zhu Hao in the Hanlin Academy. He also took care of the future of this cheap son-in-law. He was afraid that Yang Tinghe would take the opportunity to retaliate. Might get some buzz.

That night, he went to Yang Tinghe's residence in person to visit his old friend for many years.

"...Zhitong, I didn't expect you to come here in person. I just wanted Yongxiu to tell you." Yang Tinghe was speechless about Sun Jiao's visit.

Your grandson Jiao first went to the Ministry of Officials to make a fuss, and asked the Minister of Rites to talk to me about your son-in-law alone, and now he came to my house in person?
I really don't know how to avoid suspicion.

Do you think the courtiers of Ming Dynasty can casually communicate in such a private manner?

What would others think?
Do you think that I, Yang Tinghe, formed a party for personal gain and wanted to harm Daming?
Sun Jiaodao: "The intermediary, what do you mean...?"

Yang Tinghe said: "The appointment and removal of personnel in the Ministry of Officials is not under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Cabinet. The matter of letting Jingdao go to the Ministry of Households is just rumors from the outside world... The post of head of the Ministry of Households has always been appointed by His Majesty."

"Oh?"

Sun Jiao thought to himself, is it fun to fool my old bone?
Still His Majesty's imperial order?
Wouldn't it be that you went to the emperor to put pressure on him to agree to transfer Zhu Hao to the household department, and then said that this matter has nothing to do with you?Force me to submit?
Sun Jiao sighed and said, "I don't have much time in court. At this age, I'm already powerless to deal with the court affairs. Your Majesty always asks about the old man's family affairs, and even asks about the candidate to succeed the old man as Minister of Household Affairs..."

Speaking of this, he was actually implying Yang Tinghe.

You help me keep Zhu Hao in the Hanlin Academy, and I will hand over the household department, and let the household department be under your jurisdiction again, Yang Tinghe.

Yang Tinghe didn't care too much about it.

The Ministry of Finance thought that you, Sun Zhitong, could hand it over to whoever you wanted?Doesn't the little emperor want to hold the financial power in his hands?
You, old man Sun, take yourself too seriously!

You are clearly a small person who is trying to survive in the cracks, but you always regard yourself as a powerful person who can call the wind and rain in the court. The only one who can't see the situation clearly is your grandson!

Yang Tinghe said: "Then let me tell you something, it must not be Zhu Hao who called out Hanyuan... So, are you satisfied with Zhitong?"

"really?"

Sun Jiao glared at Yang Tinghe.

Then he realized that since Yang Tinghe dared to make such a guarantee, he should not lie to himself.

So this question doesn't need an answer.

"Thanks in advance, Jie Fu, you just need to send me what you need in the court in the future. I don't plan to make any achievements in the court, so I will rely on these juniors from now on... It's hard for a dog to be a big responsibility. If you have something to do in the future, you can only rely on it." Zhu Hao... I hope you can understand." Sun Jiao's final tone became humble.

Yang Tinghe nodded with a smile.

Afterwards, Sun Jiaoman bowed apologetically and pleaded guilty, disregarding Yang Tinghe's persuasion, and left in the dark.

……

……

Sun Jiao left.

Yang Shen came out from behind the screen, with a somewhat aggressive tone: "What's the matter with this old Mr. Sun? Why is he so concerned about Zhu Hao's affairs? Does he really treat Zhu Hao as his family?"

Yang Tinghe looked cautious: "My father always feels that he knows some inside information that outsiders don't know, and covers it up extremely tightly... This is not like his usual style of acting..."

"Oh?"

Yang Shen asked curiously, "Then... what kind of person is Sun Butang in your eyes?"

"Him? Huh, in the past, the court was indifferent and indifferent, never clinging to or flattering others. He could talk to you for a long time when you said a word to him. This kind of person will speak loudly even if his personal interests are involved. principles, instead of being so sloppy like now..."

Yang Tinghe obviously had great doubts about Sun Jiao.

Yang Shendao: "You can disregard your own interests, but you are so abnormal because of Zhu Hao? What exactly is he planning?"

Although Yang Tinghe had doubts, he obviously didn't want to understand the reason.

Yang Shen asked: "Father, is it possible that he wants to use such a radical method to make people feel that he has no intention of going to court, so that His Majesty and you agree that he will return to his hometown?"

Yang Tinghe couldn't answer this question.

"Father, regarding Jingdao's appointment to the household department..."

Seeing that he couldn't find an answer, Yang Shen could only start with the most realistic questions.

Now that Sun Jiao reacted so strongly to Zhu Hao's transfer abroad, should the previous plan continue?

Yang Tinghe sighed: "He has turned down his face to see the father, can the father not give him face? Let Jing Dao stay in Hanyuan for the time being, let him do less for the time being, and observe carefully... You should also pay more attention, Could it be that the person who can make Sun Zhitong lose face like this is a member of the new emperor?"

Originally, Yang Tinghe's last sentence was not asking for an answer, but Yang Shen analyzed it seriously: "No, father, put yourself in the same place. If Zhu Hao belongs to His Majesty, then Your Majesty should be very eager for Zhu Hao to be transferred to the Ministry of Household Affairs. Why... um ?”

Speaking of this, Yang Shen was also taken aback.

Obviously, there is one point where he himself is not logically consistent.

Yang Tinghe said: "You also see the problem? If Sun Zhitong knows that Zhu Hao is the new emperor, is Sun Zhitong's actions reasonable?"

"what?"

Yang Shen was startled when he heard this.

This explains...

Makes sense!

Only Sun Jiao knew that Zhu Hao was a member of the new emperor, but he didn't want Zhu Hao to be involved in factional disputes, so he strongly objected to letting Zhu Hao be the head of the household department, otherwise it would be impossible to explain Sun Jiao's abnormal behavior.

Yang Shen immediately shook his head: "Father, if Sun Butang really knows about this, then he should avoid suspicion. Now it's just a guess, it may be unfair to Jingdao."

Yang Tinghe waved his hand: "It doesn't matter if it's fair or not, as long as he's still in the Imperial Academy, it's irrelevant."

"Yes."

Yang Shen really convinced his father this time.

The affectionate father has never given Zhu Hao the chance to do great things, and he still has doubts about him.

Then his trust in Zhu Hao seemed a bit blind. When it came to doing big things, it was obvious that his father was better and considered more comprehensively.

……

……

After Yang Shen listened to Yang Tinghe's words, he would naturally limit the assignment of Zhu Hao to work.

But even an old fox like Yang Tinghe never imagined how much Zhu Hao could do for the little emperor, so that Yang Tinghe felt that as long as Zhu Hao was allowed to stay in the Imperial Academy to do nothing, it would greatly limit Zhu Hao's help to the new emperor and prevent him from helping the new emperor. What news did Zhu Hao get from him.

What Yang Tinghe didn't expect was that Zhu Hao's purpose from the beginning was not to transfer to the key Yamen.

Zhu Hao has only one purpose, and that is to stay in the capital and become a capital official.

As long as he was by the emperor's side, even if he couldn't see Zhu Si all the time, his influence would cover the entire court.

"...You mean, Sun Butang has been lobbying for you to let you stay in the Imperial Academy, not for you, but for Elder Yang Ge?"

That night, Zhu Hao and Tang Yin rarely sat down to drink tea and chat.

Recently, although Tang Yin is still in charge of mining, most of the time he doesn't need to go to the Xishan Mine in person, and stay in the capital to command remotely.

But when Tang Yin listened to Zhu Hao's analysis, he suddenly felt that there was something wrong with his ears.

Zhu Hao said with a smile: "No one helps anyone, in fact, my father-in-law just wants to use Yang Ge to suppress me."

Tang Yin's heart was overwhelmed.

Before, Tang Yin always felt that Sun Jiao was uncharacteristically, and he should have recognized Zhu Hao's ability to do this, but he didn't expect that Zhu Hao had another version of the explanation.

"Could it be that you are overthinking? Actually... Sun Butang didn't intend to tear things down?"

It was obviously difficult for Tang Yin to accept this statement, but after getting along with Zhu Hao for a long time, he understood that Zhu Hao would not aimlessly criticize a person who helped him so maliciously.

Tang Yin admired Zhu Hao's knowledge of human relationships and sophistication.

Zhu Hao said: "Is he trying to tear down the stage? No! He didn't intend to harm me either. If he wanted to harm me, he could help His Majesty with my work. I was behind the plan to open the mine in Xishan, so I just need to tell Mr. Yang Ge. On the contrary, he did it because he admired me and thought he was helping me."

Tang Yin shook his head and smiled wryly: "Why can't I understand..."

Zhu Hao smiled and said: "My father-in-law has a stubbornness that is almost paranoid. He thinks that as long as I can settle down to study and put me under the supervision and control of others, it will be the greatest help to me. He will try his best to keep me in touch. When it comes to practical affairs, I am not allowed to open an office, or preside over one party's affairs... It is purely doing bad things with good intentions!"
