Zhao Xuanling was kneeling on the ground fearfully, fearing that the third prince would embarrass herself and her grandfather.
Something happened suddenly today. When Emperor Liang came to tell him to meet him, he was almost scared out of his mind.
Grandpa came to the third prince for help, which was really an instinctive reaction.
Unexpectedly, after all the trouble, it turned out to be a huge own mistake!
No matter who this matter is placed on, I'm afraid they will lose their temper.
What's more, it is said that the third prince seemed to have suffered some hardships in order to relieve himself.
He even almost had a rift with the Holy One!
Thinking of this, Zhao Xuanling became even more frightened.
Unexpectedly, the third prince would call me for tea in a pleasant manner!
Could he have poisoned the tea?
Seeing that Zhao Xuanling was hesitant, Song Liang simply stood up himself and helped Zhao Xuanling up from the ground.
"Why is Mr. Zhao so formal?"
"I was strict with you just now. I just hope that you can gain more experience and mature as soon as possible."
"You shouldn't have any opinions on this king because of this matter, right?"
Wang Shilu was afraid that Zhao Xuanling could not speak and would offend the third prince, so he quickly took over the conversation.
"how could be?"
"Your Highness, please don't think so!"
"This child has been petty since he was young. He must be blaming himself for disturbing His Highness today and causing you a lot of trouble."
Having said this, Wang Shilu reached out and touched Zhao Xuanling.
"Your Highness has given you tea, why don't you get up quickly and thank me?"
After being reminded by Wang Shilu, Zhao Xuanling quickly stood up and bowed to Song Liang.
"Thank you, Your Highness, thank you, Your Highness!"
"Sit down," Song Liang casually pointed to the empty stool next to him, "Master Wang, I, Prince Tingrong, mentioned this accidentally just now."
"Has the candidate for this imperial envoy been decided?"
Wang Shilu glanced at Zhao Xuanling, nodded and said: "It has been decided to return to Your Highness."
"It is said that the Holy One was not satisfied with the two great bachelors, so he finally decided to send Prince Rong to An Ning as the imperial envoy."
"In three days, we have to set off immediately!"
"Three days later..." Song Liang murmured to himself, "It seems that the matter has finally settled."
"I don't understand. Going to An Ning is probably a thankless task. Why does the fourth child seem to be in a hurry to go!"
"In addition to the tea horse incident, he went to An Ning. I'm afraid he may have some ulterior secrets!"
Wang Shilu had little contact with Song Huan. Ever since Song Huan brought down Shangguan Yi, he had stayed away from this skillful prince.
To this day, he just wants to settle down and live out his old age in peace, and is not willing to get too involved in the battles between the princes.
Facing Song Liang's question, he just said vaguely: "Prince Rong may have his own reasons for doing this!"
"But the Holy One has already spoken. Prince Rong must go on this peaceful trip."
"What the outcome will be, we have to wait until Prince Rong comes back to know!"
Song Liang silently rolled his eyes at Wang Shilu. What this old fox said was equivalent to saying nothing at all!
It's all a bunch of nonsense!
But he was right. What exactly Lao Si wanted to do in An Ning would only be known when the time comes.
"I don't care what he does in An Ning."
"I only know that it will take at least half a month for him to come and go."
"In these half a month, I can do a lot of things!"
"for example……"
Having said this, Song Liang's lips curved into a smile.
"If I remember correctly, there should be many people in the court who are very dissatisfied with the Prime Minister!"
Wang Shilu nodded and echoed: "The Prime Minister is too upright and upright, even to the point of being merciless at times."
"Such a person is not a bad thing for Daliang Chaotang."
"But to most of the other courtiers, he is a very unpopular person!"
"It is normal for such people to arouse everyone's dissatisfaction."
Song Liang's face showed sarcasm: "There is such a person as the biggest supporter of the fourth camp. I don't know if this is the fourth brother's blessing or the fourth brother's disaster!"
Speaking of this, Song Liang suddenly turned to Wang Shilu and asked: "By the way, Mr. Wang has been serving in Wenyuan Pavilion for how many years?"
Wang Shilu's face was full of emotion: "The veteran came to Wenyuan Pavilion thirty-two years ago to work as a book editor. Eight years later, he was admitted to Wenyuan Pavilion and became a bachelor."
"Thirty years is just a blink of an eye, time flies so fast!"
Song Liang smiled very secretly: "Although Mr. Wang has become the first scholar, in the final analysis, a bachelor is just a civil servant who advises the saints, compiles books, etc."
"There is no specific real power!"
"With Mr. Wang's qualifications and abilities, are you willing to stay in Wenyuan Pavilion forever?"
Wang Shilu lowered his head slightly: "I am satisfied that I can keep my current position."
"I only hope that I can give more advice to His Majesty and contribute my little strength to the country and the country of Daliang!"
As soon as these words came out, Song Liang burst out laughing.
"Ha ha ha ha……"
"Master Wang, there are no outsiders here, so you don't need to say these polite words."
"I only want to ask you one thing. If the position of prime minister is placed in front of you, will you do it or not?"
Wang Shilu never expected that the third prince would offer him such an attractive bargaining chip!
He immediately stood up in panic: "Your Highness, this..."
"Wei Chen is already old and has no ambition to climb up the ladder!"
"I just want to stay in Wenyuan Pavilion and spend my old age in peace..."
Unexpectedly, Wang Shilu was interrupted by the enthusiastic Zhao Xuanling beside him as soon as he was halfway through his words.
"Grandpa! You are confused!"
"His Highness treats you well. How can you not cooperate with His Highness and seize this great opportunity that comes to you?"
Zhao Xuanling could still tell which one was more valuable, the grandson of a great scholar or the grandson of a prime minister.
Besides, if grandpa can successfully obtain the position of prime minister, then his future career can be said to be bright!
However, what is completely different from him is that after experiencing too many changes, Wang Shilu no longer has such big ambitions.
For him, being able to maintain the status quo is already a rare thing!
He was worried about how to reject the third prince, but he didn't expect that he would be tricked by his grandson!
If the third prince hadn't been watching, he would have really wanted to beat his grandson!
Song Liang seemed to be very satisfied with Zhao Xuanling's words.
"Master Wang, what Master Zhao said is absolutely correct."
"Those who know the current affairs are heroes, and those who can seize opportunities are the ones who know the current affairs best."
"Besides, even if Mr. Wang doesn't think about himself, he should still think about his grandson!"
