Chapter 115: Wang Zhizheng lobbied Huang Liji
Huang Liji heard Wang Zhizheng praise him for "cultivating himself and enlightening the way", he couldn't help but be slightly stunned, looked at Wang Zhizheng with a smile and said, "Oh? That's what Lord Wang thinks? Then tell me, where can the old man be called these words? ”
Wang Zhizheng smiled slightly and said: "Huang Ge has been a lifelong man, making speeches, making meritorious contributions, establishing virtues, and the three requirements of the sage, you have done all the things, and you have fulfilled your duties and worked hard for the country, of course you are worthy of these words." Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info"
Huang Liji nodded and said: "As a scholar, Liyan and Lide sighed that they can do okay, but as for meritorious service, it can't be called meritorious." ”
Wang Zhizheng immediately objected: "Xiong Tingbi of the Donglin Party, he is so happy, Liaodong Frontier Defense, rigid and self-serving, adults should make a decision immediately, not afraid of offending the Donglin Party, let Xiong Tingbi get the end he deserves, this is meritorious service!" ”
Wang Zhizheng's words struck Huang Liji's heart at once, and the execution of Xiong Tingbi has always been a knot in his heart. For the Donglin Party, the execution of Xiong Tingbi is a blood feud with the Donglin Party. Now that Wang Zhizheng actually praised it, he suddenly felt a sense of bosom friend.
Huang Liji looked at Wang Zhizheng and asked with a smile: "Oh, Lord Wang thinks Xiong Tingbi should be damned?" ”
Wang Zhizheng nodded and said: "Thunder, rain and dew are all holy graces, and the execution of Xiong Tingbi is the will of the saints, you are just a courtier, you have said your opinion, what grievances does Xiong Tingbi have!" Like him, he is stubborn and self-serving, taking the country's border defense for experiments, sooner or later the border defense will be broken, and if he is replaced, he will also be sentenced to execute Xiong Tingbi's first nine sides! ”
Huang Liji was silent, drinking tea and not answering Wang Zhizheng's topic, he didn't want to mention that name. Xiong Tingbi, although this person was destroyed by his own hands, but this knot can't be solved.
But Wang Zhizheng's words are equivalent to helping him untie a knot.
Huang Liji sighed faintly: "Qingliu, the Donglin Party, controls public opinion, and they describe the old man as a despicable and shameless person!" ”
Wang Zhizheng said disdainfully: "The Donglin Party is the one who is a petty one!" Think about it, for the sake of the interests of one party, they exclude dissidents and provoke the party and government! The vitality of my Ming Empire was drained by them! They control public opinion, and if they are not members of their party, they will belittle them in a big way, and even every resolution of the emperor and his majesty will be discussed, and they will resist the state's collection of taxes on the southeast chaebol, which will affect the country's financial resources, and how can the country have no money for border defense and disaster relief! This is a disruption of government affairs, and this is a drain on the bottom of the Empire State Building! ”
The more Wang Zhizheng spoke, the more excited he became, he stood up, and his impassioned momentum was no less than that of the Donglin Party.
These few words, what he said are Wang Zhizheng's heartfelt words, every sentence is true, he also has this attitude towards the Donglin Party, Wang Zhizheng in order to believe that the king can get support, although he stretched out an olive branch, but it is definitely not the undercover agent of the Donglin Party in the eunuch party.
Huang Liji completely opened the knot in his heart, he stood up, and solemnly bowed to Wang Zhizheng: "Lord Wang, you are the old man's confidant!" Please be worshiped by the old man! ”
Wang Zhizheng hurriedly helped Huang Liji up: "Elder Ge, how can you afford your gift, sit down quickly!" ”
Wang Zhizheng helped Huang Liji to sit down, and then sat down too, he said so much, I hope Huang Liji can open his heart, but Huang Liji's heart is like an ancient well, throwing down so many stones, and never stirring up a wave.
Wang Zhizheng saw that Huang Liji still didn't open his heart to him, so he decided to make some fierce news.
Wang Zhizheng smiled slightly, took out a portable jade wall from his arms, and handed it over with both hands.
Huang Li was puzzled and asked, "Lord Wang, what do you mean by this?" ”
Wang Zhizheng said respectfully: "This jade wall is the first emperor to reward the letter king Zhu Youzhen, the letter king came to my house yesterday, asked me to dedicate it to you, and said that I said: jade, the country's heavy weapon!" Only Huang Ge Lao is worthy of this jade wall! ”
Hearing that Wang Zhizheng carried King Xin out, Huang Liji got up and stared at Wang Zhizheng vigilantly: "Lord Wang, I have no dealings with King Xin, please take back the jade wall, no merit will be lost!" ”
Wang Zhizheng knew in his heart that Huang Liji thought that he was sent by Wei Zhongxian to test him, so he trembled his vigilance.
Wang Zhizheng was not in a hurry, he slowly put away the jade wall and put it into his arms: "Huang Ge Lao, if you have no relationship with King Xin, and you don't plan to do so, then I will take the jade wall back and return it to him, and tell him that you don't accept his jade wall, and you don't want to have anything to do with him." ”
Then he sat back in his place, staring at Huang Liji while sipping tea and observing Huang Liji's reaction.
Wang Zhizheng added: "Oh, by the way, Huang Ge Lao, I believe that the prince is a loyal person, if you don't have the intention of making friends, if you want to make friends later, it will be too late." ”
Huang Liji's brain was spinning rapidly: What is the origin of Wang Zhizheng? If he came to test me on behalf of Wei Zhongxian, and I didn't accept it, he would have completed the task, so why should he continue to lobby. If it is on behalf of King Xin, if he resolutely rejects him at this moment, if King Xin succeeds to the throne in the future, it is inevitable that he will not settle accounts with himself. Indeed, as Wang Zhizheng said, if you don't burn incense now, it will be too late in the future.
Huang Li was speechless, holding the teacup, and his mind was thinking quickly.
Wang Zhizheng then said another sentence: "Befriending the king of letters, you will not commit the taboo of being nine thousand years old, because nine thousand years old is a person who obeys the holy order, and his loyalty is no less than that of anyone else." Moreover, the relationship between the nine thousand years old and the king of faith is also very good. You have to think clearly. ”
What sets Huang Liji apart from others is that he is a person who dares to make decisions.
Hearing Wang Zhizheng's words, Huang Liji finally broke the silence, he stood up, paced a few steps with his hands behind his back, looked back at Wang Zhizheng, and said calmly: "Since the king of faith is so important, he can't be blessed with his good intentions." ”
Wang Zhizheng nodded and stood up with a smile: "That's right!" You still have to get by on the face. ”
After that, he took out the jade wall from his arms again, and respectfully presented it to Huang Liji with both hands, Huang Liji looked at the jade wall, which was crystal clear, and it was indeed the best in jade.
He stretched out his hand to take the jade wall, and suddenly felt warm and cold, the white wall was flawless, and the beauty was impeccable.
Huang Liji held the jade wall, nodded deeply, and suddenly asked Wang Zhizheng with a smile: "Lord Wang, if my guess is correct, you are in Cao Ying's heart in Han, right?" ”
Wang Zhizheng smiled slightly, arched his hand and asked, "Please analyze it." ”
Huang Liji said with a smile: "The name is a nine-thousand-year-old henchman, but in fact, he is planning for King Xin!" You've done a great job! ”
Wang Zhizheng waved his hand and said with a smile: "Huang Ge Lao, you guessed wrong, I am not in Cao Ying's heart in Han, but in Han Ying's heart in Han!" A nine-thousand-year-old henchman, why can't he help King Xin? Nine thousand years old and King Shin are not opposites, you can see this clearly. ”
Huang Liji knew that Wang Zhizheng would not admit it, and he did not intend to let Wang Zhizheng admit it.
He looked at Wang Zhizheng, who was not leaking, and asked with a smile: "Lord Wang, may I ask Gui Geng?" ”
Wang Zhizheng smiled and said: "I was born in the twenty-seventh year of Wanli (1599), and I wasted twenty-nine years. ”
Huang Liji sighed and said: "Your Excellency has not yet passed the age of standing, but you have such achievements and insight!" ”
Wang Zhizheng said humbly: "Your son Hengruo, the same age as me, the current commander of Jinyiwei is also young and promising!" ”
Huang Liji smiled: "How can a dog be compared with you, an adult, if you are soft and kind, you can't be entrusted with big things without a city!" It's just that Enyin guessed an idle errand. ”
Huang Hengruo and Wang Zhizheng don't have a deep personal relationship, but they also have a nodding friend, seeing Huang Liji mentioning his son, his face is full of fatherly love, Wang Zhizheng is determined to take advantage of it.
Wang Zhizheng said with a smile: "As the saying goes, choice is greater than hard work, Zhizheng is just a good choice of son, if the adult also chooses the right, your son must have an unlimited future!" ”
Speaking of this, Huang Liji's eyes jumped, and he was captured by Wang Zhizheng, and Wang Zhizheng continued to fan the flames: "This chess is about the wealth of your family. The elder of the pavilion chose the right one, no matter how weak the descendants are, the wealth is already in their hands! ”
Huang Liji rubbed the teacup in his hand, and suddenly put it down: "Lord Wang, believe in the king but have orders, the old man must do his best." ”
Wang Zhizheng smiled slightly: "Elder Huang Ge, from tomorrow, I will propose to the nine thousand years old that I be promoted to Ling Gongzi as the deputy commander of the Praetorian Guard. ”
Huang Liji thought to himself: This Wang Zhizheng really kept a good hand to trade with me. In this way, Heng Ruo was promoted, and Heng Ruo was held as a hostage. Well, since you are determined to take refuge in the king of faith, you must not waver, so give your son to him.
So, Huang Liji bowed down: "Then thank you Commander Wang for mentioning something." ”
Wang Zhizheng smiled magnanimously: "Please rest assured, Ling Gongzi I can guarantee that the marquis is hopeful." ”
Huang Liji sighed: "Wealth is a floating cloud, as long as you can do things for the country." ”
Personally lobbied Huang Liji, Wang Zhizheng once again revealed the true purpose, as Wang Zhizheng said, some things cannot be covered, if you don't gamble with your own net worth, you won't get the most important support.
Huang Liji's joining the Xinwang Party is Wang Zhizheng's safest move, this chess is down, Wang Zhizheng's chances of winning have increased by a few percent, and the balance of power is suddenly tilted to the side of the Xinwang Party, Wang Zhizheng's next step is to take the initiative to instigate Cui Chengxiu to betray the eunuch party.
