Four hundred and twentieth chapters fight back
The purple clay teapot, the size of a palm, was held in the palm of your hand in the cold winter, and felt warm and comfortable.
The wooden furniture carved by Huanghuali has gradually become popular since the Sun family and his son came here ten years ago. It is not very comfortable to sit on it. It just feels very comfortable to lean on it casually, and it is natural, as if the relationship has suddenly brought it closer.
Zhao Pu just sat casually on the big Huanghuali chair, holding a small purple clay pot in his hand, sitting quietly like a Maitreya Buddha with a smile, and occasionally making tea for Sun Chunming in front of him.
Today he got some good tea balls and specially invited Sun Chunming to taste them. This is the sixth time since the beginning of winter, Sun Chunming has come to have tea. Every time he chats, there is no substantial content. No matter how busy Sun Chunming is, he will definitely take time to chat with the old man.
To be honest, Sun Chunming really admires Zhao Pu very much. He was also a senior official of the empire, and Quan Zhihe-Nanfu was also the one who just took office, but he was tired when he worked. When he worked, he was idle all day long. However, in terms of efficiency, he was much better than himself, and he also handled Sun Yue's military affairs.
Otherwise, why are they legendary? They are far worse than others.
"Brother Chun should be in his early thirties this year. Let's see, you all have white hair. You are the handsome young master Xiaoyao. I, the old man, feel aggrieved for you. Now you are at least a deputy prime minister. If you have anything, you will leave it to the people below to do? In such a big country, you have to do everything in everything, so what do you have to do with the people below?"
Sun Chunming smiled and put down the teacup in his hand and took the speech, "What Zhao Xiang said is, but the younger generation is not as good as Zhao Xiang Gong. Those people below can easily do something wrong without watching for a quarter of an hour."
"Hahahaha, you father and son are so kind-hearted that they are reluctant to punish the people below. But that's true. Even I sometimes feel confused about your wonderful thoughts. Sometimes the people below cannot do it well. It's inevitable that there are a few capable stops. I think the one named Han Derang is good. Unfortunately, he has to be busy with a lot of things. Lu Mengzheng, you father and son, have you helped him up with one hand. Haven't you ever thought of transferring him to a department and letting him help you?"
Sun Chunming's face froze and said with awkward smile: "Is it rare to be talented? I'm very satisfied with Brother Han helping me. Brother Zheng is a judge of Kaifeng Prefecture after all. He has been familiar with him for so many years and is a native of Luoyang. His Highness Yan also trusts him more, so he really can't steal this person."
After saying that, Sun Chunming looked up at Zhao Pu's expression slightly. Unfortunately, this guy was almost the same as the Maitreya Buddha in the temple from beginning to end, smiling and fat.
"Well, it's really not appropriate to be transferred, otherwise my new official would squeeze out the judge, and others would think I can't tolerate him."
"Zhao Xiang was joking, who didn't know that you were the prime minister and could hold a boat in your stomach."
"It turns out that an old friend named Li Lin in Kaifeng, who has been with me for a few years. Later, he was seconded to the Ministry of Revenue and served as a member of the Ministry of Revenue. He is a good at managing money. If Brother Chun doesn't dislike him, I'll send him a letter and try to transfer him to help you?"
Sun Chunming's face froze again, and he didn't know what to say for a moment.
Zhao Pu smiled and said in a daze: "I'm not going to compete with you for power. Don't misunderstand. Now we are on the same boat and we will compete for these little profits. It's a joke. You, Sun Chunming, aren't the useless bureaucrat who will obediently recognize me and fiddle with you. This really depends on you being too busy. I'll introduce you to you kindly. Is it all for the King of Yan, for the Song Dynasty, for the people of the world? Do you think so?"
Sun Chunming smiled bitterly helplessly, but nodded to agree.
Seeing this, Zhao Pu also laughed happily, and then suddenly said seriously: "Everyone knows the thoughts of the King of Jin in the court. I am also confused for a while. Alas, if we take a hundred years of foundation, moving the capital to Luoyang is indeed a benefit for generations. Our official family has great ambitions, great strategies and big structures, but it is hindered from family affection and unwilling to take serious measures. If you want to be a big trouble in the future, you will feel ashamed when you think that I cannot argue with him for my own selfish interests."
When Sun Chunming heard this, he lowered his head and picked up the boiling water to make tea. He said nothing. He thought that if Sun Yue was sitting, he would roll his eyes to his master.
"If there is no self in the court, no one will be able to govern the King of Jin. Although Your Highness has grown up, he is just a mediocre person. He is not a match for the King of Jin today. The only thing the official can rely on is Luoyang. For the country, the country and the people. Brother Sun, please cooperate sincerely. You and I may have had some dirty thoughts before, but at this time, I hope to treat each other honestly. I will rely on my seniority and accompany you. Just think that it is to pass the grudges and grievances of the past."
As he said that, as Zhao Pu's identity, he actually stood up and bowed to Sun Chunming. Sun Chunming was shocked to help him up repeatedly, saying that he didn't dare.
Zhao Pu actually bent down slightly and made a gesture. He didn't expect to salute him, so he got up and said softly: "I know that King Jin has had great kindness with you, but personal kindness, compared to the benefits and harms of the world, is only a small virtue. After all, personal kindness and blessings of the world are just small righteousness. I heard that Princess Jin gave you something a few days ago?"
Sun Chunming looked at him and said, "Grandpa Zhao is so well-versed. Please rest assured that Sun can still distinguish between the minor matters and the righteousness."
"Brother Chun, no matter how well Luoyang is built, no matter how close it is to the capital, it is still a layer across it. If there is no movement in the capital, it will still be difficult to block the sky. Now that I have come to Luoyang, should you move too?"
"Justice Zhao said something. Sun was young and knowledgeable, and didn't understand what Zhao Xiang meant."
"San Si Tutor Chu Zhaofu, you should move him too. Since you came to Luoyang, although it means that someone secretly is wrong with him, it seems that he has never taken action against him. After all, Li Chongju has been working in that position for more than two years, and there are still some people in the yamen who are more or less available."
When Sun Chunming heard this, he lowered his head to drink tea without saying a word.
The spring breeze turns into rain... It's really worthy of being Zhao Pu, it's indeed a good method.
For Zhao Pu, since he has been sent to Luoyang, if he can't make any noise in the court, wouldn't he really become a local magistrate? He was beaten for more than half a year and was almost time to fight back. He tied him to Sun Chunming, which not only shared the political risks, but also clearly expressed his political attitude to the people of the world.
This is what Zhao Kuangyin hopes to see, because only in this way can Zhao Guangyi check and balance again.
However, Sun Chunming doesn't like this simple personnel struggle, which is somewhat a bit of a waste of people. In fact, it is not a good thing for the country. An official of this level, otherwise he would really think that he had lost his holy heart by himself?
"Secret Zhao, is it only a move against Chu Zhaofu?"
"I heard that Lu Duosun seems to be embezzling too. Well, it's just my reputation... Haha, it's a bit inappropriate to say that this is a bit inappropriate, Brother Chun, look..."
