Chapter 476 The two families in Jiangsu are already in-laws.
Although A Nian and Su Buyu are far apart in official rank, A Nian can still catch Su Buyu's eyes on weekdays.
In the past, the two of them would talk and laugh when they met, but this time, Ah Nian returned home worried.
Su Buyu sneered, "This is Li Jiujiang."
A Nian went home and suffered from insomnia for most of the night.
It was not because of the eldest son's imperial examination.
The eldest son would not be seventeen next year, and he would be in his weak years after waiting for another three years.
What A Nian was worried about was the unintended meaning of Li Shangshu's words.
Ah Nian was so insomnia that Sister Zijin couldn't sleep either.
She yawned and asked him, "What happened today?"
"Sister is not asleep yet."
A Nian thought that sister Zijin was already asleep.
He Zijin said, "I see you don't have much appetite for dinner.
Didn't Prime Minister Su come over to talk to you today?
But what's bothering you?"
He used to be jealous of others when he was the emperor's master.
Since the revision of history books, A Nian has been recruiting people from there.
The enthused person stepped down.
Although the task of compiling history books was not as great as that of the Imperial Capital, He Zijin still preferred Anian to compile history books.
Now that Anian's official position is mediocre, why is he so troubled?
The husband and wife have always kept nothing secret from each other, not to mention that since they grew up in the same place, A Nian is still more willing to listen to sister Zijin's opinions on many things.
Now that there was no one else in the room, A-Nian told Sister Tongzijin exactly what Su Buyu told him.
A-Nian said, "Next year Enke will still be a small matter.
What do you mean by Li Shangshu's words?"
mean" Because many of his family members were officials, although they were all low- and middle-ranking officials, because most of his family members had passed the imperial examination, He Zijin still knew something about the imperial examination.
For example, next year's enke is actually very difficult, because this is the first spring palace since he ascended the throne, and in such spring palaces, the new monarch is often the examiner himself, even if the examiner of the new monarch is just a name.
It can be said that they are all disciples of the emperor.
Disciple of the Emperor.
These four words will be more or less beneficial to the future career.
Generally speaking, even if it is only psychologically, the new king will pay great attention to his first enke after he ascends the throne.
However, Li Shangshu reminded Su Shangshu to keep the children at home away from him.
He Zijin thought deeply, and was suddenly frightened and tired.
He Zijin whispered, "It can't be that Li Shangshu is so unfavorable to His Majesty."
Does this mean that the emperor is about to collapse?
A Nian asked Sister Zijin, "How is Empress Dowager Cao doing in the palace recently?"
He Zijin said, "I came to the palace to pay my respects on the Double Ninth Festival of the Mid-Autumn Festival.
Empress Dowager Cao is also on the throne.
I usually go into the palace to teach the eldest princess and Princess Jiachun, but I have never seen Empress Dowager Cao in Ci'en Palace."
"The Empress Dowager still refuses to see Empress Dowager Cao" "Think about it, if the Empress Dowager hadn't been so angry, she wouldn't have been able to demote the Cao family to the rank of earldom."
He Zijin often came to the palace and had some understanding of the Empress Dowager's temperament, He Zijin said, " The Empress Dowager is usually very tolerant.
For example, when we are joking in front of the Empress Dowager, the concubines and concubines will be rewarded whenever they are happy.
Some princes with humble biological mothers are extremely generous.
The Empress Dowager also treated them like other princes whose biological mothers were noble, so that they would not be wronged.
However, such a person should not regard Kuan He as having a bad temper.
The Empress Dowager's downgrade to the Cao family was not a lie.

For such a person, it is possible that the decree of demotion has just been issued today and the order will be changed tomorrow as if it had not happened.
Not to mention the Empress Dowager, even ordinary people like us cannot do this. " A-Nian thought for a moment and then asked, "Sister Yi, how does the Empress Dowager treat Your Majesty?"
He Zijin said, "I rarely see Your Majesty, but in Ci'en Palace, the Queen Mother will never forget to send a copy to Your Majesty if she has something that she thinks is good.
This can't be said badly." " A Nian was very convinced of Sister Zijin's judgment, and he said, "It's just that Li Shangshu would not say such a thing for no reason."
He Zijin said, "Not only Li Shangshu, but also Su Shangshu is not one of those people who follow others' opinions.
Su Erlang originally wanted to join Enke together next year.
If Su Shangshu didn't also have the same view as Li Shangshu, how could he have informed you?
” "Yes."
This was the reason why A-Nian couldn't sleep in the middle of the night.
Li Jiujiang is the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, and the Ministry of Personnel is the head of the six departments.
Su Buyu is the Minister of the Ministry of Punishment.
Although the Ministry of Punishment is not more powerful than the Ministry of Personnel, Su Buyu is in the cabinet.
Su Buyu is not a person without judgment.
Su Buyu's father, Su Wenzhonggong, was a veteran of three dynasties, and Su Buyu is now a veteran of four dynasties.
If Su Buyu and Li Jiujiang's judgments are consistent, A Nian can't help but feel deeply for Your Majesty.
Worried.
He Zijin said, "Actually, let me say that the Empress Dowager Cao is the Empress Dowager Cao, and Your Majesty is Your Majesty.
If the Empress Dowager had the intention to anger His Majesty, she would not care for His Majesty like this.
At least, the Empress Dowager does not care about His Majesty.
Your Majesty is dissatisfied.
Think about it, Your Majesty.
My Majesty has not yet personally taken charge, so all political affairs are entrusted to Ci'en Palace and the Cabinet."
Suddenly, He Zijin was moved and said, "Speaking of which, Wei Tai Zhaoyi in the palace is the daughter of Prime Minister Wei, and the six sons of the late emperor are the grandchildren of Prime Minister Wei.
Tell me, does Prime Minister Wei have any intention of treason?"
"Impossible."
Anian said, "General Li, who is in charge of the imperial guards, was born in the Yong'an Marquis Mansion.
He is Li Shangshu's half-brother.
Li Shangshu is the eldest son of a concubine, and General Li is the second son of a legitimate son.
Although he is a legitimate son, There is a difference between common people.
I heard that the two of them have a very good brotherhood.
Li Shangshu, General Li, and others.
The Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager were young acquaintances.
At that time, Emperor Taizong was still in power, and Xiang Wei had taught the late emperor poetry and literature.
Later, when the late emperor ascended the throne, he supported Xiang Wei.
Otherwise, Prime Minister Wei alone is no match for the Empress Dowager."
Anian sighed, "Even in the cabinet, like Prime Minister Su, the Su family is naturally loyal.
Among the three sons of Duke Su Wenzhong, his eldest son and second son all became officials due to old age.
Prime Minister Su is the third son of Duke Su Wenzhong.
Among the three brothers, the only one He had the deepest friendship with the Empress Dowager.
Su Xiang had the deepest friendship with the Empress Dowager.
His uncle, the Prince Consort of Yi'an, was Mr.
Xie who was on a mission to Beiliang last time.
The two of them were close friends.
Naturally, Prime Minister Wei had authority in the court, but Prime Minister Wei was too far away from the military power to seek the throne.
Military power, so I say it is impossible for Prime Minister Wei to have such ambitions."

He Zijin said, "But why have you forgotten?
Didn't you tell me that before?
Before his death, the late emperor gave your majesty a marriage to the granddaughter of Liu Shangshu of the Ministry of War.
As for the Liu family, Liu Shangshu is the military god of Dongmu.
Can the Liu family not favor your majesty?"
, Even for the sake of my granddaughter’s position as queen, I must be loyal to His Majesty.”
He Zijin's words reminded A Nian, who slapped his forehead and said, "I am really obsessed with the authorities.
I spent most of the night wandering around and worrying, and I actually forgot about the Liu family."
He Zijin smiled and said, "I just remembered it in a hurry."
Thinking of the Liu family, A-Nian felt at ease and said to Zijin's sister, "The late Emperor has the heart of a true king and father."
He Zijin didn't care about royal affairs.
She felt that whoever sat on that chair, well, as long as it was the late emperor's son sitting on that chair, it would have little impact on her family.
He Zijin was concerned about his son, He Zijin said, "Then tell me, will Aye be allowed to testify against Enke next year?"
A-Nian thought for a while, "It depends on what the Su family wants.
If Erlang doesn't take the exam, let Ah Ye wait a little longer.
If Erlang takes the exam, let Ah Ye get fired."
Anian's official position is not high, and he has not been in the imperial capital for a long time.
A Nian could not sort out these complicated interest relationships in the imperial capital for a while.
However, he also has his own method.
When he can't see clearly, he just follows the taller one.
He Zijin also agreed with this method.
After pouring out the troubles in her heart, Sister Jing Zijin came up with her.
Thinking of the powerful Liu family as your majesty's in-laws, most of A Nian's worries about your majesty disappeared.
No matter how powerful Li Shangshu is, he is still a civil servant.
General Li's biological mother is Emperor Taizong's biological sister, and his current great-aunt is Princess Wenkang.
General Li is in charge of the Yulin Army, so he can never rebel against the royal family.
As for the deep meaning of Li Shangshu's words, A Nian couldn't think of any crisis for His Majesty at the moment.
For a moment, A-Nian's worries disappeared, and she and Zijin's sister quickly fell asleep.
However, A-Nian still paid a little attention to some rumors in the imperial capital.
Soon, A Nian heard a piece of gossip.
Because it was gossip in the elite circle and it related to the Cao family, A Nian inquired carefully about it, but it turned out to be the marriage between the Cao family and the Xuehou Mansion.
Xuehou Mansion, this is about Yongyihou Mansion.
The Xue family was awarded Yongyihou for their ancestral merits.
The current Yongyihou is the eldest eldest princess Shouwan, my aunt.
The young lady who is now married to the Cao family Mr.
Hou is the grandson of Princess Shouwan.
A few days after A Nian heard this gossip, when He Zijin went to the palace to teach the eldest princess and Princess Jiachun, he was lucky enough to meet the eldest princess Shouwan in Ci'en Palace who came to talk to the empress dowager.
Although He Zijin's identity definitely meant that he could not know the intention of the eldest princess Shouwan to enter the palace.
It is said that the eldest princess and the eldest princess in the court often entered the palace when there was nothing wrong.
But now that the Xue and Cao families are married, it is conceivable that the eldest princess Shouwan will say something good for the Queen Mother Cao.
Then, within a few days, another incident spread among the powerful.
That is, Earl Cao, the father of Empress Dowager Cao, personally visited the Empress Dowager's natal home, Duke Xie Guo, with heavy gifts.
Then, before the year before, the King of Jin and King Qi sent mourning letters respectively.
The mother of King Jin, the concubine of Emperor Taizong, and the concubine Zhao, and the mother of King Qi, the concubine of Emperor Taizong, the concubine of Emperor Taizong, and the concubine of Emperor Taizong.
The noble concubine Xie passed away due to illness.

Fortunately, Princess Zhao was just an ordinary concubine.
The mother of King Qi, Concubine Xie, was the direct aunt of the Queen Mother.
The two had sons who were both close to the throne.
Moreover, whether to be buried in the fiefdom of King Jin and King Qi or whether to be buried in the concubine garden of Taizong's mausoleum was a state matter and needed to be discussed.
The Queen Mother seems to be sentimental about the old man's withering away, and her heart is much softer.
After the Chinese New Year, during the anniversary ceremony of the late emperor, when the Empress Dowager Cao once again apologized and admitted her mistakes, the Empress Dowager revealed all the past events.
Then, Queen Mother Cao did something that frightened A Nian.
Ah Nian would know about this because his sister Zijin told him.
He Zijin said, "Ms.
Cao said that she had some confusing things that were caused by ghosts and gods.
She seemed to be obsessed with something.
She wanted to invite eminent monks and nuns to come over and perform rituals to ward off evil spirits."
A Nian was startled and quietly said to Zijin's sister, "Is there anything wrong with my brain?
Why do I need to ask a monk to teach me again?"
"What's going on?
Usually when things go wrong at home, the female relatives often go to the temple to burn incense."
He Zijin picked up the longan tea and took a sip.
She herself had done some feudal superstitious activities.
Even the women at home, who I have never been to a temple to burn incense.
"That's not what I'm saying.
It's easy for monks and nuns to get into trouble.
During the reign of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, Prince Liu Ju was deposed because of the witchcraft case.
Just ask the Bodhisattva to pay homage.
Why bother bringing monks and nuns into the palace?
These gods and ghosts The way is too easy for people to take advantage of.”
He Zijin said, "Don't worry, the Empress Dowager is famous for not believing in ghosts and gods.
You are thinking too much.
Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty used witchcraft to dethrone the prince.
It was only after Wei Qing died.
If Wei Qing was alive, no matter how witchcraft Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty probably won't depose the prince."
He pulled A Nian and said, "Let's go and see A Ye's new house."
The Ji family was anxious about A Xi's arrival, and the Jiang family had to ask A Ye to marry her brother first so that he could marry A Xi.
Therefore, they started to pack A Ye's new house in the autumn of last year.
He Zijin also asked Ah Nian, "Do you have any idea about Ah Ye Chunwei?"
He saw Enke approaching.
Anian said, "Don't worry, I have a sense of discretion in this matter."
"You should talk to Ah Ye earlier.
I think he is very confident."
"It's nothing, it's just a pretense.
It's too early for me to pass the exam."
Anian said, "I'll talk to him about this."
He Zijin asked, "I really don't want Aye to take the exam."
Anian said, "Don't worry, sister, I have my own ideas."
Fortunately, Sister Zijin didn't know what A-Nian was thinking.
Otherwise, she would have had to fight against A-Nian.

Sister Zijin just knew that Su Erlang went to attend Enke, and Aye also went.
He Zijin thought that Li Shangshu's words might be exaggerated.
Because, from the side view of He Zijin entering the Changjin Palace, one could not see that the Ci'en Palace was dissatisfied with His Majesty.
In fact, the Queen Mother has always been devoted and caring to His Majesty.
Therefore, when He Zijin saw Su Erlang going to Enke, he felt relieved that Aye would go.
When He Zijin asked A Nian, A Nian also said the same thing, "Su Erlang is going to take the exam.
It doesn't matter.
Sister, just don't worry."
But in fact, it was not until a long time later that He Zijin realized that it was not what Anian said at all.
A-Nian herself matured early, a child without a father and a mother had already taken charge of the family, and at such a young age she was both famous and married, and she was very good at planning for the future.
Therefore, although Ah Ye is only seventeen, Ah Nian also believes that the eldest son is already old enough to stand alone.
So, A Nian told the eldest son the whole story and let the eldest son make his own decision.
Ah Ye was preoccupied with Enke, but he didn't know that his father would suddenly make a big move.
Ah Ye was immediately confused, while Ah Nian said calmly, "There is always some risk in taking the exam this year.
After three years, it will be relatively stable.
You are older now, Make up your own mind."
Ah Ye was distracted for several days, and then he made the same decision as his father.
He decided to see if his second uncle, Su Erlang, wanted to take the exam.
Through Aye's observation, the second uncle was about to end.
Then, Aye picked up his mood and went off together with the second uncle.
He Zijin had no idea that A Nian had told her son about this matter.
She just saw that her son was going to end up, so she started busy packing the things he would need for his end.
The same is true for the Su family.
The uninformed women from both families were busy talking about the fate of Su Erlang and Aye, but Su Buyu called A Nian over to talk again.
Su Buyu saw A Nian's expression becoming more and more satisfied, and said nothing.
Just slightly chin.
Ah Nian wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't say anything.
The corners of his lips pursed slightly, showing a hint of determination.
How could Zijin think that Li Shangshu was exaggerating and what he said was inaccurate?
However, both Su Buyu and Anian, who were in the court, understood that Li Shangshu was by no means a person who told lies.
Li Shangshu is different from Su Buyu.
Although Su Buyu's status today is related to his extraordinary ability, Su Buyu's background is also one of the reasons why he was promoted to the cabinet position.
Li Jiujiang is different.
Even though Li Jiujiang was born in a Hou family, Li Jiujiang has come step by step over the years, and his family has not given him any help.
Even when Li Jiujiang first became an official, his family not only did not help him, but actually helped him.
Because of his family, Li Jiujiang's life was quite difficult.
Because Emperor Taizong didn't have the slightest fondness for the eldest son of his sister, Princess Wenkang.
Li Jiujiang grew up in his hometown in the countryside.
To this day, his relationship with his father, Marquis Yong'an, is quite cold.
It can be said that Li Jiujiang is where he is today because of his hard work alone.
One can imagine Li Jiujiang's methods and vision.
This person is not someone who would joke about such a big matter.
However, despite Li Shangshu's reminder, Su Buyu and Anian also had their own political persistence.
For example, Su Buyu, no matter how close his friendship with the Empress Dowager is, he is still the descendant of Duke Su Wenzhong, and he cannot be ashamed of the posthumous title of his late father, Wenzhong.
Like Anian, the late emperor trusted him as much as he did before his death.

He could not do such a snobbish thing just because of some slight disturbance.
Ah Nian said that he left the choice to Ah Ye, but in fact, he didn't know what would happen to Su Erlang.
As for Ah Ye, a young man who has not yet joined the officialdom, he knows what the political situation is.
When he cannot judge, he will naturally refer to the choices of people around him.
The best candidate for this reference can only be Su Erlang.
Li Shangshu's eyebrows moved when he learned about the fate of Su Erlang and Aye.
Based on his status, he would not pay any special attention to the two students.
Li Shangshu just used the two to test the political stance of the Su and Jiang families.
Now, the choice of the two families is not beyond Li Shangshu's expectation.
If Su Buyu didn't even persist in this, it would be a disgrace to the family's reputation.
As for Jiang Nian, it seems that the late emperor did have a good vision.
But, how long can you persist?
The author has something to say: s:Good night gd1806102:
