Su Xiangfu, Dongpo Pavilion, and Murong Fu pounced on two places that Su Shi frequented in succession, until he chased the editorial office of the Bianjing Times, and then blocked Su Shi himself and the four scholars of Sumen in Huang Tingjian's office as he wished.

Seeing that Su Shi's master and apprentice were enjoying tea around the fireplace, Murong Fu, who was in an anxious mood, couldn't help but have a cruel smile on his face, and said slowly: "The teacher is so leisurely!" ”

Seeing the murderous appearance of the closed disciples, Su Shi sat up in shock, and knocked over the good Biluochun in front of him carelessly. "How did Akashi get here?" He hurriedly stepped forward and pulled Murong Fu into his seat, "You are unwell, you should recuperate!" ”

Su Shi was so concerned, Murong Fu's expression was a little gloomy, and he couldn't help but say aggrievedly: "The students are recuperating at home every day, and I don't see the teacher coming to see me." ”

Su Shi's face was embarrassed when he heard this, and he twisted for a while and said, "For the teacher...... As a teacher, I am also afraid, disturbing you......" Su Shi is really an honest person, it is rare to tell a lie, and before others expose it, he is already red-faced.

Murong Fu knew Su Shi's character for a long time, and he also sighed at this time. As soon as the news of Lu Dafang taking over as Zuo Xiang came out, how could Murong Fu not know that Su Shi didn't go to visit because he felt ashamed of his students? He immediately helped Su Shi back into the chair, and said softly: "Teacher, I don't know what you think about Lu Weizhong's succession as Zuo Xiang?" ”

When Su Shi saw Murong Fu mention the position of Zuo Xiang, he immediately glanced at him embarrassedly, and said after a long time: "Lu Xiangduan is solemn and virtuous, and his qualifications are also above that of the teacher, and pushing him to succeed the Zuo Xiang is the common meaning of Lu Sikong and the teacher!" After Duke Lü resigned, he was appointed by the Empress Dowager as Sikong and Pingzhang military affairs. This position was originally held by Wen Yanbo, who had always been appointed by the imperial court to show his favor. However, after the old minister took up the important affairs of the military state in Pingzhang, he no longer participated in the decision-making of the imperial court, and it can basically be regarded as a retired veteran cadre transferred to the CPPCC.

The phase of Lu Gong's work was originally Sima Guang's contribution to the arch, and Lu Gong's work knew that he wanted to take care of the party's thoughts, and Murong Fu knew it without asking. Now that I heard that Su Shi actually agreed with Lu Dafang as the left minister, Murong Fu was a little tightened in his chest, and said after a while: "Teacher, don't you know, then Lu Weizhong is the Shuo party?" ”

Su Shi shook his head and smiled: "Lu Xiang is dedicated to the public, is there anything wrong with the Shuo Party?" "Lu Dafang and Su Shi's personal relationship has always been good, and a good friend should be the left minister, and Su Shi is naturally happy to see it.

"Teacher!" Su Shi was still so naïve that Murong Fu suddenly felt congested. "Lu Xiang is a member of the Shuo Party, and his political views are different from those of the teacher. If he takes office, he will definitely repeal the new law and restore the old law, and then I am afraid that the teacher will not be able to deal with himself. ”

"This ......" Su Shi was shocked when he heard this, and said hurriedly. Both the Exemption Law and the Fangtian Law are good laws, and the Municipal Law has been improved and implemented in Tokyo for more than half a year......"

"Teacher, did Duke Sima Wen listen to these words back then?" Before Su Shi could finish speaking, Murong Fu had already interrupted him. If the so-called party struggle is all about the public interest, where can it start? "What's more, how much has Lu Xiang done alone? The whole party of Shuo has sworn to abolish the new law, what can Lu Xiang do about it? At this time, Murong Fu could only secretly rejoice that Su Shi had not promoted Lu Dafang with Lu Gongzhu, otherwise the hearts of the Shu Party would be scattered and there would not even be scum left.

"This ...... This ......" Su Shi remembered that Sima Guang didn't listen to his advice back then, and he couldn't help but be stunned when he was left alone in the court.

Su Shi is straightforward and not good at strategy, which is not forced by nature. Murong Fu saw that Su Shi had nothing to say, so he couldn't help but sigh and turned his head to Huang Tingjian and said, "Lu Sikong's resignation, I wrote back a few years ago to remind my senior brother to make plans early. Now that the post of Zuo Xiang has fallen into the hands of the Shuo Party, does the senior brother have anything to say? "Among the four bachelors of Sumen, Zhang Lei is a nerd, Qin Guan is a merry man, and the pattern of Chao Supplement is small, only Huang Tingjian is the oldest and the most experienced in government affairs, and Murong Fu can only discuss with him to seek the position of left minister for Su Shi. As early as Xiping, Murong Fu had already written to Huang Tingjian, reminding him to use the newspaper to build momentum for Su Shi after Lu Gong's resignation, but he didn't expect that the editorial published by the "Bianjing Times" in the end was applauding Lu Dafang to take over as the left minister.

Huang Tingjian, who was named, looked slightly embarrassed, he hesitated and stood up and was about to answer, but Su Shi replied again: "Akashi, this is what it means to be a teacher...... It was at that time that you were seriously injured......"

The teacher laughed. In the past two years, students have not been in the capital, and the different bags can also help. Murong Fu's smile was slightly cold, political naivety can still be learned, if the political habit is deep-rooted, then there is no way.

"Are you doing a favor with sending the tiger whip to Lu Xiang?" Qin Guan couldn't help but mutter. He is a romantic figure, and seeing Jia Yina and others will inevitably hurt him.

When Murong Fu heard this, he immediately glanced sideways at Qin Guan, and said coldly: "A villain like Jia Yi is taken out of context, slandered and framed, and is mad. Senior Brother Qin is now speaking for Jia Yi, but where is the teacher? ”

Murong Fu is talking about the second year of Yuan You, when Jia Yi, who was the right adviser, hated Su Shi for Cheng Yi's resignation, and framed Wen Yanbo and Fan Chunren for favoring Su Shi's brothers. Jia Yi was so mad, the Empress Dowager was furious and wanted to punish him severely. However, Lu Gongshu made a hindrance from it, under the pretext of not disgusting the little emperor with Taiwan's advice, and interceded for Jia Yi several times, and in the end Jia Yi was only punished by Huaizhou. Lu Gong's actions made Murong Fu keenly aware that he had the intention of making the Shu Party and the Luo Party attack each other, so he resolutely ruined Jia Yi's reputation and stripped him of his official skin. As for the excuse that Lu Gongshu used to defend Jia Yi, Murong Fu scoffed at it. As an official, Jia Yi should have admonished the government and the Son of Heaven with honest words. However, he reversed black and white for personal grievances, framed ministers, and deceived officials, which not only exposed the corruption of his personal character, but also tarnished his reputation. Lu Gong's defense of Jia Yi not only failed to make the little emperor have a good impression of Taiwan, but would think that the Taiwan officials were all villains who were framed by slanderous rumors.

When Murong Fu mentioned Su Shi, Qin Guan knew that he was speechless, so he didn't dare to answer again.

Su Shi has always liked Qin Guan's talent, and seeing that Qin Guan was speechless when he was cross-examined, he hurriedly pulled the topic back. "Akashi, there are some things that are a teacher who would rather take from the straight than from the song." In Su Shi's heart, if the political arena is a big quagmire, then he would rather walk away cleanly, completely give up the opportunity to play this game, and not want to jump into the quagmire and become as dirty as a political enemy.

Murong Fu knew that Su Shi did not turn around for him, which showed that he actually agreed with Qin Guan's point of view. In fact, Murong Fu was fast and ruthless in cleaning up Zhu Guangting and Jia Yi, not only the Su Shi brothers and the four scholars of Su Men were terrified, but even Lu Gongshu felt that it was too ruthless, so he deliberately recommended Lu Dafang as the left minister, leading the Shuo Party to balance the Shu Party, and preventing Murong Fu from becoming dominant.

"Not bad!" When Su Shi said this, Huang Tingjian was full of confidence and said loudly. "The post of Zuo Prime Minister is related to the fortunes of the country, how can it be stolen by private means? This is not a gentleman's doing! ”

This time, Murong Fu just wanted to vomit blood, and immediately turned his face and said angrily: "Is it true that Lu Gong's recommendation of Lu Dafang is dedicated to the public?" ”

"Lu Xiang is a thick person, a sincere bone, and a virtuous song. How to be a left-hand minister? Huang Tingjian replied casually that he actually used the editorial of "Bianjing Times" to block Murong Fu's mouth, and it was obvious that this editorial that applauded Lu Dafang was eight times out of ten or from his own hand.

Murong Fu wanted to vomit blood, he almost wanted to hit the wall. "The Bianjing Times is the banner of our Shu Party, but you use it to advocate for the Shuo Party......" Huang Tingjian's self-slapping move almost slashed the face of the Shu Party.

Huang Tingjian only rolled his eyes when he heard this, and said quietly: "Akashi, you didn't say that back then. You said that the "Bianjing Times" should be the voice of the people. Now that Lu Weizhong has taken over as Zuo Xiang, it is exactly what the people want! ”

"Ahem, ahem......" Murong Fu couldn't reply, only covered his chest with a pale face and coughed.

"Akashi, how are you?"

"Murong! Sit down! ”

"Oh, junior brother! Well, what's going on? ”

"Eliminate gas, quickly eliminate gas! If you have something to say, speak slowly! ”

Seeing that Murong Fu was so angry that he coughed, everyone panicked and hurriedly asked him to rest. However, Murong Fu turned a deaf ear, held Qiao Feng's hand tightly, and walked out step by step. Approaching the door, Murong Fu suddenly turned his head and glanced at them deeply. At that glance, he was disappointed, anxious and sad, only to see that Su Shi and the four bachelors were depressed, as if they had not lost their position as the left prime minister but dug up the ancestral grave of the Murong family. After a while, Murong Fu let out another long sigh and walked out tiredly.

Murong Fu was seriously ill and had not recovered, and this time he came to find Su Shi by carriage. Qiao Feng helped Murong Fu into the carriage, and noticed that his face had never returned, so he couldn't help but whisper a word of persuasion. "Murong, the world of rivers and lakes is vast, since it is so hard, why not take a step back and open the sky?" Although Qiao Feng didn't understand political affairs, he also knew that what Su Shi said today really hurt Murong Fu's heart and messed up his layout.

Murong Fu closed his eyes and leaned in the carriage, not answering for a long time. It wasn't until the coachman drove the carriage slowly out of the range of the Great Xiangguo Temple that he said softly: "North Qiao Feng and South Murong, are they all famous side by side?" ”

Murong Fu has never walked on the rivers and lakes, so naturally there is no such thing as "North Qiao Feng, South Murong", and in the past few years, only the beggar gang leader Qiao has been famous and powerful in the rivers and lakes. However, when Qiao Feng heard Murong Fu mention the six words "North Qiao Feng, South Murong", he was inexplicably excited, and laughed at the moment: "Why not?" ”

Murong Fu sighed again, and said in a deep voice: "How much reputation I can make in the rivers and lakes, I know it when I look at Brother Qiao, it's really boring." …… Besides, giving up halfway is not a little brother. ”

Qiao Feng raised his eyebrows and asked, "How are you doing?" ”

“…… Whether it is an official position or money, it is not earned by one's own hands, and after all, I don't know how to cherish it. Murong Fu said slowly, his expression getting cold. Once, I always wanted to be a filial son, and I tried my best to take care of everything I could for her, but it turned out to be harmful to others and myself...... Now, I don't have this strength anymore...... "The Shuo Party is already powerful in the DPRK, and now that Lu Dafang has been appointed as the left minister, the winter of the Shu Party is coming." When Su Shi and the four scholars of Su Men ordered no one to go out, they naturally knew the stakes. The so-called good defenders are hidden under the Nine Lands, and perhaps this is also an excellent opportunity for the Empress Dowager to see the Shuo Party clearly.

Qiao Feng was terrified when he heard Murong Fu mention his mother, but when he was heartbroken, he couldn't help shaking his hand and said, "Murong, how can you be as good as you want, but please be worthy of my heart!" ”

Murong Fu couldn't help but smile slightly when he felt Qiao Feng's affection, and said softly: "Big brother is too worried." In a few days is the Mid-Autumn Festival, is the eldest brother willing to accompany the younger brother out for a walk? "In the Mid-Autumn Festival in Bianjing City in the 11th century, Murong Fu had never had the privilege of seeing it.

Qiao Feng also smiled, clenched his fists and said loudly: "I don't dare to ask for it!" ”
