Chapter 23 Public Secretary Family

Su Siman saw that he was sad every day, but he couldn't help and was quite worried. After repeated questioning, Liang Shaojun just told her about the court, and Su Siman was still speechless for a long time.

"What are you going to do?"

"What else can be done? Although 200,000 taels have been raised so far, from the data on the book, it is impossible to pick out the stubble of various governments, and it will not help to put pressure them any more. But there is no other way to raise the remaining 300,000 taels of disaster relief money in seven days than to continue to attack these ministers. Besides, this is also what my father means. Liang Shaojun stared at the blue sky and the sun outside the window and frowned.

"No matter how I look at it, I feel that my father deliberately embarrassed you." Su Siman said bluntly, "Whether you do it well or not, it's only harmful to you. He made such a will, can it be said..." Su Siman didn't say any more, was shocked by his own idea, and turned his face to Liang Shaojun.

Seeing that his face was also pale and his eyes met, she suddenly understood that what she had just said was also his concern. The holy intention is unpredictable. It is difficult to figure out what the emperor's intention is, even as a son, but if the emperor really has that intention, he has to beware.

He tightened the corners of his mouth and squeezed his thin lips slightly. Although his face was calm, Su Siman knew that he was not calm at this time.

"Have you thought of a countermeasure?" For a long time, Su Siman asked.

"There is one way, but if you are not careful, you will be honest." Liang Shaojun frowned.

"I have a stupid way. Maybe I can try it. Neither side will lose."

"Oh, let's talk about it." Liang Shaojun's dark starry eyes flashed brightly, looking at his wife with interest, and his depressed look was suddenly shaken.

Su Siman smiled, walked to the desk, stroked a piece of white paper, picked up the wolf, and dropped a word. Liang Shaojun slowly walked to her side, put his arms around her waist with one hand, and leaned over to see. Su Siman stroked and penetrated the back of the paper. Liang Shaojun looked at the big word on the white paper and smiled with the corners of his mouth.

"You thought of me."

"Since this is the case, I think this idea is still feasible. Why bothered?" Su Siman put aside his pen, blew on the paper, and then looked at him puzzledly.

"The problem is that if you borrow it in my name, once the incident happens, it will inevitably give people the impression of party membership. Especially if you are known by your father, you will inevitably be suspected by him and think that I am buying people's hearts.

"Who will talk nonsense about this?" Su Siman raised her eyebrows.

"Naturally, there are people who will pay attention to it all the time, so if they are not careful, they will fall into the control. It's not one or two who cove of the throne. Liang Shaojun smiled.

"Who is there?"

"I shouldn't have told you these things in the court." Liang Shaojun stretched out his hand and held her face. His eyes as bright as stars stared at her and took a deep breath, "I don't want you to be involved. The less you know, the better."

"But I want to share some for you. I'm your wife." Su Siman's eyes were firm and hesitating for a moment before saying, "Does the people who cove the throne also include the Fifth Highness?"

Liang Shaojun frowned and said in a low voice, "Don't think so much. I have my own measure in the court. Once involved, it will be difficult to retreat completely. I don't want to bring you into this whirlpool. Listen to me, don't worry about this, and don't let me worry about it."

"But since the day I married you, we have been inevitably involved, and our fate is inseparable. In the past, you tried your best to cut off all the entanglement, but what happened? It was in vain. I came back again. Maybe it has been doomed for a long time, and it is God's will to be together, so how can I let you shoulder all the dangers alone and watch the fire across the mountain by yourself? She also stared at him, and the gray pupils of the pigeon flashed with determination. "I am your wife. I should have stood on your side, support you and help you. How can you achieve a great career without my participation?"

"Xing'er!" He whispered, as if a deep and fierce call from the deepest part of his lungs, he held her tightly in his arms.

Su Siman also wrapped around his waist, leaned close to him, and said quietly, "In my name, I will write the IOU."

"No!" He immediately vetoed it.

She looked up at him with a trace of doubt in her eyes: "Is there a better candidate?"

He frowned entangledly, closed his eyes in distress, and replied sincerely, "No." After saying these two words, he said firmly, "No!"

Su Siman didn't answer him and said to him: "The largest Ruyi gambling house in Beijing, I heard that the owner behind it is the Duke of Wei?"

Liang Shaojun's face was astonished and looked at her in astonishment, "How do you know?"

He did not know that since she received the reward of the Empress Dowager last year, she had been thinking about putting the money outside the palace for investment, so she secretly sent Bixi to carefully explore the market such as the wine and gambling house, as well as all kinds of family members* and so on. In fact, she also bought a large piece of land at that time and planned to build a place that would never be available in this era. According to her idea at that time, she wanted to build a building, not only gambling houses, brothels, restaurants and all kinds of business, but also new things such as saunas, acupuncture and massage halls. Unfortunately, her dream of making money has not been realized. The land has just been loosened and the construction has not officially started. The situation in the palace has suddenly changed, and she finally chose to leave the palace and stay away from the capital.

After that, that matter was naturally over. After returning to the palace, she had been in an economic crisis, and then she remembered it again. As a result, Bixi inquired and knew that the land she had already bought had been occupied by others and opened a gambling house, which was now the famous capital's Ruyi gambling house. This is Su Siman's territory. She is extremely unwilling, but according to the report of Bixi, the * of Ruyi gambling house is very solid, and the real head is Qiu Zhongshen, the Duke of Wei.

Speaking of the Qiu family, this is a big family that cannot be ignored. There is a saying of "Wen Zhang Wuqiu" in Beijing. Wen Zhang naturally refers to the Zhang family headed by the prime minister, and Wu Qiu refers to the Qiu family of the Duke of Wei. The ancestors of the Qiu family were meritorious officials who founded the country more than 200 years ago and gave them iron coupons, which was very prosperous. The fifth generation of Duke Wei's only son is arrogant and luxurious** - Yi did evil and had the good of Longyang. Once, he defiled the prince at that time after drinking and committed the crime of extermination. He took Danshu iron coupons as a protection and saved his life, but the whole family was dismissed and demoted to common people and exiled to the frontier. Since then, the family has plummeted. However, decades ago, after the national chaos, the Qiu family rose again and made contributions to saving the battle of Qiangbei in the Battle of Luohe River, returning to the head of the founding five princes.

The old prince passed away last year, and now he inherits the title of his eldest son, Qiu Zhongshen, the general stationed in Beijing. Qiu Zhongshen suffered from displacement when he was a child, was extremely tired of poverty, and had an unimaginable perverted obsession with money.

Liang Shaojun has also heard a lot of rumors about his crazy wealth accumulation by any means. Not only have he heard of it, but he has also sent people to secretly investigate, because although Qiu Zhongshen is also a member of the South Academy, he is not from the queen and the state mason, nor is his supporter. He supports his brothers, so they are actually opposed. The relationship. It is good to say that the person who knows you best is often your enemy.

Liang Shaojun is very afraid of him, but there is nothing he can do. The power of the Qiu family is the most powerful and unshakable among all the families.

In fact, some other public officials' families are not very popular. Almost all of them are single, leaving only one eldest son and daughter, and the sons born later are all killed, even the twins without exception. Naturally, this is also the result of the confrontation between the imperial power and the door valve. In order to consolidate the imperial power and prevent the fall of power, the emperor said that it was cruel and cruel, kind and kind, only depending on what the people think.

But the Qiu family is an exception.

The old country has eight sons, five of whom died in battle, three of whom died for rescue. Two of the three who are still alive today are in high positions, one is stationed in a major town on the northwest border with the Turks, and one is guarding the capital. The combined strength in his hands is more than 200,000, accounting for almost one-fifth of the country's total strength. .

Such a power, even Liang Shaojun, as a prince, had to treat each other with new eyes. Although he tried his best to attract him, he had a discord with Xia Shouyi and politics. He couldn't say anything, and the two had been competing. The so-called one mountain is difficult to tolerate two tigers. If you want to take the two together under your command, several attempts have failed. What does Susman want to do when he mentions him now? He has this question in his mind.

"We might as well borrow those 300,000 taels from Ruyi Gambling Square." Susman looked relaxed.

Liang Shaojun shook his head, which was simply a fool's dream.

"Don't shake your head. How can you know if you don't try!"

"This is absolutely impossible. Moreover, Qiu Zhongshen will not lend it to me.

"Who said you wanted to borrow it? You don't understand what I mean." Su Siman patted him on the shoulder confidently and smiled, "Don't worry, with me, I will definitely collect the 300,000 taels of disaster relief in seven days. Just wait for my good news."

"No, I will never let you be in danger." Liang Shaojun held her hand desperately, as if he was afraid that she would do something stupid right away.

"Don't worry, don't worry. I have to think about it carefully and make sure that the plan is foolproof." When Su Siman said this, the plan in his mind had already taken shape.

"Xinger, what the hell are you going to do?" Liang Shaojun looked at her nervously and clearly said that he was worried.

"I told you not to worry, I have my own opinion. I haven't thought about what to do for the time being. I'll tell you in detail when I have completely planned it. If you need your cooperation at that time, don't be stingy.

"Naturally, cooperate fully." Seeing her confident appearance, he was relieved.

"Then go and have a good sleep now. I will also calm down and think about it carefully." Su Siman said and pushed him to the bedroom.

"Oh..." The following words were stuffed by her before they came out.
