After Xu Jie returned from the Wanshou Palace, the whole person seemed a little depressed.

He sat alone at the tea table, quietly drinking fragrant tea, and asked people to call the Zuodu Imperial Spaine over, intending to convey the emperor's will. Ask the officials of the Metropolitan Procuratorate and the Six Science Corridors to stop, and don't touch the emperor's bad head at this time.

Although the emperor's words were aimed at the official, he understood that it was also aimed at him Xu Jie, and asked him Xu Jie to let Yan Song go.

With the emperor's temper, if those speech officials continue to make trouble, I am afraid that the board will not only hit those speech officials, but also hit him on Xu Jie's ass.

He originally thought that he had completely replaced Yan Song, but now he suddenly realized that he was far from being able to do this, and maybe he would never be able to transcend that old guy.

Xu Jie was in a daze, and a cabinet official came in to greet Zhang Juzheng and Xu Fan.

After ascending to the position of first assistant, he not only wanted to win over hundreds of officials, but also wanted to win the favor of the emperor. After pondering and meditating, he finally thought of a way and proposed to the emperor to revise the "Chronicles of the Rising Capital".

The so-called "Xingdu" is the Anlu of Huguang.

Jiajing succeeded the big sect with a small sect, and his father's fief was in Anlu. After ascending the throne, Jiajing gave his father the title of emperor, and in order to elevate the status of his father and his lineage, An Lu was also renamed Chengtianfu.

Shuntianfu is called "Kyoto", and it should be called "Beidu" by Tianfu, so Chengtianfu also has an honorific title "Xingdu".

Jiajing crowned King Xingxian as emperor, and also sent King Xingxian into the Taimiao, and even upgraded Anlu to the Chengtian Mansion of the three products, but there is undoubtedly a lack of a history of "orthodox royal family".

Xu Jie saw this opportunity to please the saints, and planned to propose to Jiajing to revise the "Xingdu Chronicles", asking Yuan Wei to serve as the president, and his protégé Zhang Juzheng to serve as the vice president.

This revision of "Xingdu Zhi" can not only please the emperor, but also express his support for Jiajing, and even "support" Yuan Wei, which can be described as killing multiple birds with one stone.

Zhang Juzheng was called over inexplicably, but he didn't rush to ask about the matter, and said respectfully: "The student has seen the teacher!" ”

"Taiyue, sit down!" Xu Jie raised his hand to let Zhang Juzheng sit down, Zhang Juzheng returned the salute in a proper manner, and Xu Jie looked up at Xu Fan, and immediately asked with a bad face: "Why are you here!" ”

If you don't know the roots, I'm afraid you will think that Zhang Juzheng is Xu Jie's own son, but Xu Fan is an outsider.

Xu Fan seemed to have been accustomed to it for a long time, and in the face of his father's inquiry, he immediately said with a sad face: "Dad, something big happened!" ”

"What's the matter?" Xu Jie tasted the tea unhurriedly and asked plainly.

After Zhang Juzheng took his seat, he tidied up his clothes and looked at Xu Fan. Although he came in with Xu Fan, he didn't know what was going on.

Xu Fan looked left and right, and lowered his voice seriously: "Lan Daoxing was arrested by Jinyi Wei, and now he is locked up in prison!" ”

Hey?

Zhang Juzheng was calm, and after hearing the news, his face was also surprised.

Xu Jie put down the teacup and asked solemnly: "What the hell is going on, why was Lan Dao's behavior caught by the people of Jinyiwei and imprisoned?" ”

There are many reasons for Yan Song's downfall, but Lan Daoxing's "sowing discord" is undoubtedly a very important factor. It was Lan Daoxing who pretended to use the words of the gods to label Yan Song as a villain and a traitor, which separated the relationship between the two monarchs and ministers.

If there is an accident here, it is difficult to guarantee that there will be a lot of incidents, and even the fire will burn to their side.

"The people of the Yan Party told the emperor, saying that Lan Daoxing was instructed by someone to deliberately frame Yan Song as a villain by cheating, so the emperor ordered Lan Daoxing to be arrested!" Xu Fan replied solemnly.

Zhang Juzheng's face suddenly became solemn, and he turned his head to look at Xu Jie, who was silently drinking tea.

Xu Fan was an impatient person, and immediately asked, "Dad, how is this matter good, should we find a way to rescue Lan Daoxing?" ”

"Don't act rashly!" When Xu Jie heard this, he immediately shook his head and vetoed.

Zhang Juzheng also agreed and said: "If we make a move, then I'm afraid we won't be able to say it clearly." We have been taking action, and the emperor will definitely think that it is our side that did it, so we must not take action! ”

Xu Jie glanced at Zhang Juzheng approvingly, and found that this student was the most spiritual and a person who could be entrusted with important tasks.

"If Lan Daoxing is directly recruited, then what should it be?" Xu Fan's face was full of anxiety, and he complained again: "Dad, I have inquired clearly, and the mastermind behind this matter is Yan Shifan." Now if it is really accused that it was our side that did it, then maybe the emperor will ask Yan Song to come back, and then we may all be finished! ”

No one thought that Yan Shifan, who had been assigned to Leizhou on the border, was still restless, and he actually used this trick in prison, and actually planned to start with Lan Daoxing, so as to turn the tables in one fell swoop.

Xu Jie looked at his son's anxious appearance, and immediately reprimanded: "Xu Fan, you are already a dignified fourth-grade Dachang Shaoqing, how can you be so uncalm when you encounter something?" ”

"Dad, aren't I anxious for you?" Xu Fan's face was crying, looking aggrieved.

Xu Jie sighed lightly, knowing that this matter was indeed not trivial, especially thinking of the emperor's protection of Yan Song today, and he did not dare to deny the possibility that the emperor would not invite Yan Song back.

Especially this kind of thing has a precedent, the former first assistant Zhang Xuan was called back twice, and the first assistant Xia Yan was also ordered to be recalled again, and now Yan Song is inevitably the same.

Xu Jie thought for a moment, and immediately ordered lightly: "You release this news immediately!" ”

"Master, this plan is wonderful!" Zhang Juzheng's eyes lit up slightly, and he immediately bowed his hand.

Yan Song went into the wilderness, this is actually a result that many officials are happy to see. is also why, Yan Song has just left, and there are countless reasons why officials want to impeach Yan Song.

If they learned that Yan Song might come back, whether these officials were trying not to be settled by Yan Song, or because of the grudge with Yan Song in the past, they would prevent this from happening.

If this news is released now, it will definitely be able to quickly unite all the "anti-Yan forces", so as to prevent Yan Song's return to the court together.

In particular, many officials' sons and nephews have served in Jinyiwei, and if necessary, it is enough to make Lan Daoxing shut up completely.

Xu Fan was obviously sitting next to him, but he looked at the energetic Zhang Juzheng with a blank face, he was not stupid, at least he knew that "releasing the news" must be a good idea.

As expected, as soon as the news came out, the entire officialdom was in an uproar, and many officials began to pay close attention to the progress of this matter.
