Chapter 511: Discussing the Future Together
Zhang Changzong spread his hands: "My mother-in-law, you look at the power of the court and the disciples, and you think that your disciples will have loyal and unswerving people until death?"
Princess Taiping shook her head with an ugly face. She knew it clearly. Now that the people who gathered under her are mostly people who are tempted by the flames and are loyal to death, it is impossible to be loyal to her until death.
Princess Taiping said coldly: "Loyalty and unswerving to death is something that only a gentleman and loyal minister will do. For all ages, loyal ministers have always been there, but they have never come from the princess's school. Those who are loyal will only be emperors and country. Even if the princess in this palace is named Zhenguo, they are only princesses, not emperors."
In this world, sometimes, the natural gender is the original sin. I hoped that she would understand before, but now she sees her sober and feels a little sad. This is probably the contradiction between reason and emotion.
Zhang Changzong looked at Princess Taiping who came all the way, knew her bitterness and pain, and rationally knew that this road was not easy to walk, but emotionally understood her, and because of her understanding, she couldn't bear it.
Zhang Changzong paused and said, "So, mother-in-law, should you try the way Xiu'er and I think?"
Princess Taiping refused to comment, with sharp eyebrows and asked, "You and Xiu'er?"
Zhang Changzong nodded: "Yes, it's the son-in-law and Xiu'er."
Princess Taiping did not comment, looked at him with sharp eyes, and couldn't help but think of all the words he had spoken to the new king before ascending the throne, and leaned forward slightly: "You and Xiu'er had long expected today?"
Zhang Changzong said: "It was not expected before, but it was just a human nature. There is always an inevitable rule in the development of things. You can tell by pushing them."
Zhang Changzong was still trying to explain, Princess Taiping waved her hand, her eyes slightly wet: "I always thought you had an objection to the prince. It turns out that you saw so far, I was too arrogant and had been misunderstanding you."
Zhang Changzong just smiled and said, "It's not a misunderstanding. My mother-in-law was unintentional before, so he naturally wouldn't think too much. As for the son-in-law and Xiu'er, my mother-in-law knew about it and thought more."
Princess Taiping nodded slightly, knew the couple's intentions, and sighed: "You two have the intention. Look around the world and look around you again. In the end, you are the only ones who still want to take care of me."
People from other places, whether they join her or even her parents or children, the world only thinks that she is strong and they rely on her. No one has ever worried about her. Only Xue Chongxiu and Zhang Changzong always put her in the scope of concern. When they were young, they were concerned about her health and her daily life. Now, they are also worried about her wealth and life. This kind of heart is heavy and warm.
His expression couldn't help but be much better, and he said, "If I give in..."
Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Zhang Changzong: "Does his mother-in-law really want to give in?"
This kid!
Princess Taiping paused, shook her head firmly, her eyes sharp, and her eyebrows were flying: "I don't want to! I have never beentrayed by the country and the family. Why should I give in just because I am a princess and I am a woman? Could it be that my contribution is false?"
Zhang Changzong smiled happily: "Young son-in-law knows that with the temperament of his mother-in-law, how could he think of giving in! I will tell my mother-in-law that he was actually hesitant a few days ago, but Xiu'er said that right and wrong, success and failure, success and defeat, the enemy will always have to do one battle, afraid that he will do something! The son-in-law will think, it is right. If he admits defeat without even making up his wrists, it will be really cowardly. He will hold his breath after just thinking about it. It is not too late to do it first."
Princess Taiping's eyes lit up: "Are you serious about this?"
Zhang Changzong focused on the key point: "It's taken seriously! So, what are you doing with your mother-in-law?"
Princess Taiping laughed loudly, her laughter was refreshing: "Okay! Let's join forces and talk about other things after doing it!"
"good!"
The son-in-law and son-in-law reached a consensus. At this moment, Zhang Changzong did not go home and sent someone to invite Xue Chongxiu over. Everyone discussed it together. Thinking of his brother-in-law who was waiting for him to laugh at him. When Xue Chongxiu came, Zhang Changzong asked Princess Taiping: "My mother-in-law, where is the uncle, what are the plans for mother-in-law?"
"Chongyin?"
Princess Taiping looked hesitant.
Zhang Changzong nodded and said, "My uncle has been very low-key in Beijing over the years and has not done a high position. However, he has many official positions and is very familiar with the central government. He has experience in the center, but the local experience is lacking. It is better to put it on the local area. However, can my mother-in-law bear to bear the hardships of my uncle?"
Princess Taiping paused, glanced at him, and said, "I have been going out for a few years when I let him sleep in the open and study. I still can't bear to be an official outside? However, Dalang is my eldest son. In front of me, I can still protect him. If I go out, what if I ask me if I have any?"
Zhang Changzong felt soft when he heard this kind mother's heart, but he still had to say: "My mother-in-law has a kind mother-in-law heart. My son-in-law understands it. However, my uncle is a man, not a woman. As a man, you can't revolve around your wife all your life, right? What else can you do? Since he is the eldest son you value, you should take on the responsibility of the eldest son. Forgive the son-in-law to say frankly that although the mother-in-law values him, if you keep it like this, you will only be able to raise the widow and will definitely not be able to raise talents."
Princess Taiping's expression was a bit contradictory. Obviously, she just knew that this was wrong, but she was just ruthless and couldn't bear to let her go, for fear that Xue Chongyin would have something to do. She could let him go out for study tours because she knew that Xue Chongxiu was not a person who was not qualified and would help others protect Xue Chongyin, but she had also heard of the twists and turns of the place. Sometimes she could not say how much she suffered when she was young like Xue Chongyin.
Zhang Changzong saw her conflict and said loudly: "I heard that when the chicks learn to fly, if they meet those who are timid and dare not leave the nest, the female bird will personally push the chicks out of the nest just to let the chicks learn to fly. Why don't you call your uncle in and ask him what he thinks? Can the mother-in-law protect him for a while? Or, is this kind of life what my uncle wants?"
Princess Taiping was silent, and after a moment, nodded: "Call him in."
After a while, Xue Chongyin came in and saw Zhang Changzong sitting properly. He was a little regretful. He saw that Zhang Changzong wanted to fight with him, or he should have to beat him up unilaterally, which was too worthy of being beaten.
"Mother, I don't know what's wrong with calling my son to come?"
"No hurry, sit down, let's talk slowly."
"Here."
Xue Chongyin didn't pick a seat, and sat down at the seat beside Zhang Changzong. When he sat down, he even sued Zhang Changzong and was gloating.
Princess Taiping sat up high and naturally saw the movements and expressions of the two people clearly. She was in a very complicated mood and said, "Dalang, Liulang just now suggested that you be an official, what do you think?"
Xue Chongyin was stunned immediately and asked in surprise: "How could he suddenly raise this matter..."
Before he finished speaking, his face changed and he asked, "Is there any change in the court? Mother, Liulang, what happened?"
Xue Chongyin is smart and keen. He guessed a lot of things from just one proposal. Zhang Changzong smiled and shook his head, saying, "There is no change in the court. I'll let you go out. It's just to prepare for the future and make some preparations in advance."
"Prepare?"
Xue Chongyin murmured, thinking: "But it's because of the prince?"
I know that when talking to smart people, I don’t need to say too much. I often just start and the other party can understand. Zhang Changzong nodded with a smile, and did not hide it from him. He concisely said his judgment and concerns about the situation and focused on it.
Xue Chongyin thought while listening. After Zhang Changzong finished speaking, he spoke: "Liulang, do you mean to let me be an official in the local area, thinking that foreign aid and strengthen the power of my mother's subordinates?"
