Chapter 416: The Great Reshuffle of Jinling City Officials
"Hahaha, you Jiang Nai is really my lucky star, as soon as you came, you really brought good news!" Wang Zhizheng took Jiang Nai's hand and invited him to the middle of the lobby, Jiang Nai's stay until he walked into the main hall, but instead helped Wang Zhizheng to sit down, and then knelt down to give Wang Zhizheng a salute.

Wang Zhizheng smiled and said: "You guy, why do you give me a salute as soon as you come! You are the chief counselor of the Praetorian Guard, I am just a regimental training envoy, compared to the two of us, I am still one level lower than you, how can you give me a salute?"
Jiang Nai stood up with a smile and said: "Master Hou, you are really joking, except for Lord Ruan, Mr. Chen, the rest of Huang Zongxi and Wang Liangfu are our own brothers, I came to Jinling, of course, I have to give Master Hou a family gift first!"
Huang Zongxi said with a smile: "Brother Jiang, if you want to talk about family etiquette, you are my old leader, and I have to give you a salute!"
Ryosuke laughed and said: "It's a matter, our big sword battalion, how dare you not have luggage when you see the counselor, come and come, we will give you a gift!"
As he spoke, Ryosuke and Zong Xi stood up and saluted.
Jiang Nai smiled, stood with his hands behind his back and said, "You two little rabbits, I deserve to give me a salute! Come on, come on, you Brother Jiang will honestly accept the family gifts of the two of you!"
A few people were confused for a while, Wang Zhizheng patted the table and said: "Okay, okay, Brother Jiang came from the capital, went to Tongcheng again, and brought back Shen Shaoxian and Tong Yingqiu, such a trip to the north and south, through most of the world, hurry up and let the sixth sister prepare wine and food, I want to get drunk with Brother Jiang!"
Jiang Nai waved his hand and said: "Master Hou, don't worry, I still have a few things to be busy here, you see, Xun Article, Xun Zongzhang I still have to go to Xuan Paper!"
Wang Zhizheng smiled and said: "Take care of what they do so much, they should drink and drink, Xun Wen's matter of Xun Zongzhang, it's not too late to announce it tomorrow, if you don't announce it, it will reach their ears this afternoon!"
Jiang Nai's eyebrows moved: "Oh, what does Master Hou mean is that this Yanyulou is not airtight?"
Wang Zhizheng smiled and said in a low voice: "The sixth sister of the proprietress of this Yanyu Building, although I have slept with me for more than half a year, she is actually the inside line of the ancient classics!"
Jiang Nai's eyes moved: "Why don't you kill him?"
Wang Zhizheng pointed at Jiang Nai with his finger and said: "Speaking of you, you can seek people, but you don't have enough to do things, you still don't recognize it, I killed her, who sent me the wrong news to the ancient classics?!"
As soon as Wang Zhizheng's voice fell, Jiang Nai, Huang Zongxi, as well as Liangfu, Ruan Dacheng, and Chen Zilong all laughed.
Jiang Nai asked, "What about that kid Zhou Cheng, how can you not call him a wine fairy when you drink?!"
Wang Zhizheng waved his hand and said: "Hey, don't mention it, this kid has been busy lately, and he will still settle accounts in the Commercial Tax Division!"
Jiang Nai said with interest: "I said, how did the emperor promote this kid Zhou Cheng to the general counselor (deputy director) of the Department of Commerce and Taxation, it turned out to be an expert!"
Wang Zhizheng nodded and said: "Hurry, I'll be back before noon, how can he stand this wine! By the way, is there any news, this time the emperor and the cabinet have a dispute?!"
Jiang Nai nodded and sighed: "If you want to say that this Bai Hongmin Pavilion is old, he is too arrogant, and he will fight with the emperor in the main hall! If it weren't for his old age and the fact that he is a cabinet minister, if he were replaced, I Jiang Nai would have arrested him a long time ago and punished him as disrespectful!"
Wang Zhizheng shook the folding fan in his hand: "Bai Hongmin, you still don't understand, you and I have dealt with him in the Nine Thousand Years Old Mansion before, although this person is a Donglin scribe, but he has the heart of a tiger and a wolf, and his children and grandchildren are vigorous and ambitious, if he does not eradicate it, it will eventually be a disaster! The emperor's performance is still good, and he can be restrained, this is the most basic quality of a king!"
Jiang Nai said suddenly: "Master Hou, you have to be careful in attacking the city this time, I heard the secret line on Bai Hongmin's mansion sent me a reply, saying that Bai Hongmin is planning with Wang Zhifan and Zhou Yanru to let you be defeated and killed in the city this time! I heard that because of this incident, Bai Hongmin and Wu Jue also had a dispute, Wu Jue said that Tuan Lian is a soldier of the Ming Empire, Bai Hongmin said, that is your personal guard! Wu Jue and Bai Hongmin had a disagreement about this matter, I thought, it is better to take this opportunity to win over Wu Jue, maybe it can be used by me to help us set up a horse for Bai Hongmin!"
Wang Zhizheng nodded and said: "Wu Jue and I, but old friends and old rivals, I know him too well, this person has clear grievances, and he is also a loyal and righteous man, but unfortunately he is too much to see, so he has always been prejudiced against me, this time in Jinling City, he didn't help his cousin Gu Wendian much! You don't need to win over Wu Jue, you just need to help me keep an eye on him!"
Speaking of this, Wang Zhizheng sighed and said: "Some people always have no foresight and can't see the situation clearly, and they are afraid of hurting their interests, but do you think, if the world is in chaos, there are all eggs under the nest?
Jiang Nai shook his head and said: "Master Hou, I think the current cabinet is really not as good as Huang Liji's cabinet during the Wei Zhongxian period! There is no one who has the world in mind, they are all people who are calculating power all day long, Qian Qianyi just has a more pertinent attitude this time, and did not clearly express that he wants Hou Ye to lead the army to conscript, saying that letting Huang Zongxi go out on your behalf can achieve the effect of suppressing thieves, as a result, Zhou Yanru and Wen Tiren, Wang Zhifan, those people, actually attacked it in groups, Bai Hongmin was even more rampant, and he could easily drag him, the head of the cabinet, off the horse, and Bai Hongmin immediately forced several of Qian Qianyi's apprentices and students out of the sixth, Qian Qianyi was shocked, saying that he was not sick, and when I left the Beijing Division, Qian Lao was still recuperating in the mansion!”
Hearing this, Wang Zhizheng was furious in his heart, this stick was broken, and it was actually arrogant and wild to this point.
It's a pity that this Qian Muzhai planned to leave a personal favor in front of him, but he actually hurt himself to this point.
Wang Zhizheng pinched the walnut small wood carving with his fingers, thinking about the situation in Beijing that Jiang Nai said, and then smiled, and said: "Qian Muzhai, he is also a rare upright person in the Donglin Party, you look at that Wen Tiren, exquisitely on all sides, speaking in place, and suddenly talked to the emperor's weakness, as well as Zhou Yanru, the city is very deep and aggressive, and everywhere pushes me to death! It is my second brother Wang's domain, which can be regarded as the same root, but this time it is not everywhere to urge me to take the soldiers to the city to die!"
Speaking of this, Wang Zhizheng's eyes flashed with a little sadness, but that sadness was fleeting, and no one else saw it.
Wang Zhizheng slapped the table and shouted, "Go and ask the sixth sister, how is the preparation of the wine and food?
