Xiao Jingshan was both proud and surprised when he heard that Zou Yinglong finally relented and called him senior brother in public.

You must know that this junior brother has been arrogant since he was a child, and he has never been convinced by anyone. Although he has the name of a senior brother, the gold list is essentially below him, and the future cannot be compared with him.

But now, this junior brother has changed his arrogant temperament in the past, and even calls him senior brother in public, and he even wondered if his ears had heard it wrong.

"Brother Zhang, please tell me the truth!" Zou Yinglong looked at Xiao Jingshan for a long time and said without saying a word.

Before Xiao Jingshan could answer, an obese superintendent next to him helped explain: "Brother Yunqing, Zhang Hongtu impeached Yan Shifan and Yan Ge Lao yesterday, and now this matter has caused a storm in the city!" ”

"Zhang Hongtu has been sparse yesterday, why don't I know?" Zou Yinglong's eyes immediately widened, and he asked in shock.

Xiao Jingshan also came back to his senses, and immediately explained: "Although Song Shu was sent to Xiyuan yesterday, the emperor only reviewed it last night, so the news came out this morning!" ”

According to the current system, officials need to send a copy to the cabinet in the form of a post, so that the cabinet can understand the situation first. It's just the impeachment of Yan Shifan and Yan Song, and that official will naturally not be copied to the cabinet.

Although Jiajing is not a lazy emperor, he is not necessarily very diligent, and it is precisely his recent health that has caused him to postpone the matter of being released to the public.

But no matter what, the news is undoubtedly explosive, and there are even officials who impeach Yan Song regardless of life and death. Although the focus of this impeachment is Yan Shifan, I am afraid that it will not be able to escape.

The officials looked at Zhang Wei, who was eating silently, not only admiring his courage, but also sighing for his irrationality, which was simply self-defeating.

"How so?"

Zou Yinglong's head was buzzing, and when he looked up at Zhang Wei, who was isolated, he was completely stunned.

All the plans, all the plots, are for his fatal blow. As a result, the artillery launch he carefully prepared gave people a head start, and this inconspicuous Zhang Hongtu was already ahead of him.

Now that Zhang Wei is ahead of him, he can be regarded as a follower at most. But this world will only remember the first stab, and his impeachment is at most a downfall.

If Zhang Wei's impeachment success this time, he will not be able to share any credit. If Zhang Wei's impeachment fails this time, then he will suffer with Zhang Wei, and he will also be liquidated by Yan's father and son.

"How could he be one step ahead of me!"

Zou Yinglong looked at Zhang Wei, who was eating a lot, and suddenly wanted to cry without tears.

But no matter what the final result of the matter is, everything has nothing to do with him, this glory will only belong to Zhang Wei, and if it is a bitter fruit, it will be borne with Zhang Wei.

He won't be a success, but he may be a loser, but he's done the stupidest thing in the world.

This variable has been spread much earlier.

West Garden, Wuyi Palace.

"Zou Yinglong is a step slower?"

Xu Jie, who was wearing a python robe, was dealing with the music, and frowned when he heard the news. In order to make the impeachment recital go directly to Xiyuan, he also did some work in the General Administration, but he never expected that his convenient door would be given to others.

Zhang Wei is a jinshi in the thirty-seventh year of Jiajing, and the chief examiner of that session is the current household secretary Wu Shan, obviously this move was instructed by Wu Shan, and Wu Shan wanted to bring down Yan Song.

After Xu Fan learned the news, he also rushed to the palace as soon as possible, and asked anxiously: "Dad, what should we do now?" ”

"Wait for the emperor's reaction!" Xu Jie stopped the pen in his hand and looked in the direction of Wanshou Palace.

Zhang Wei's early move caught him off guard, but it didn't disrupt his plans. Although he can't become the "hero" who brought down Yan Song, the most important thing is to get the position of first assistant, which has not changed substantially.

As for whether Wu Shan will take the opportunity to grow, this is no longer a question he should consider at the moment, and now he is fanning the flames and striving to pull Yan Song, the old immortal, off the throne of Shoufu.

The Palace of Longevity, in the Ashram.

Jiajing, dressed in a blue robe, sat on a yellow futon, meditating, but his mind was silently working, thinking about what to do with that piece of music.

He has been ruling this dynasty for forty years, and he doesn't know that Yan Song is not a virtuous minister. If he was really a virtuous minister, then Yan Song would not obey him in everything, and even more for his cultivation career, he would collect the wealth of the world.

It's just that compared with those virtuous ministers who are upright and take the common people of the world as their own responsibility, Yan Song is the ideal first assistant in his heart, and he is the first assistant he needs the most now.

Why did he move to Xiyuan, he didn't go to the court for more than 20 years, but it was not that he wanted to be lazy every day, but that he was already afraid of those virtuous ministers who dared to point at his emperor's nose in the court and scolded him too much, and dared to accuse him of being a dumb official with the righteousness of the people.

Let's take a simple example. If it is still according to the previous pattern of court deliberations, the reconstruction of the Wanshou Palace, the expansion of the Temple of Heaven and the construction of the Sanqing Taoist Temple are discussed in the court, then this kind of thing will definitely quarrel endlessly, and the spearhead will eventually be directly pointed at him, the emperor.

is also the same, he adopted the method of avoidance, hiding in Xiyuan Xiuxuan and never going to court. Through the help of loyal cabinet members, the six ministries are controlled, and thus indirectly control the operation of the state apparatus.

I have to admit that Yan Song has been qualified in the past 20 years. Let him, the emperor, not need to face those courtiers who don't want to die, indirectly control the dynasty, and at the same time cultivate the Xuan as he wants.

It's just that the years are ruthless, Yan Song is indeed too old, and he doesn't have enough energy to help him share the burden, let alone help him deal with those energetic officials.

It's just that Yan Shifan is still so arrogant, and there is a Yan Hu who doesn't know how to restrain, and the house slaves of the Yan Mansion are so arrogant and domineering, it seems that it is time to change people.

Of course, things have to be seen. After all, these seemingly loyal officials may also have their own plans in private, and they still need to be beaten.

"Call Xu Jie!"

Yan Song's eyes slowly opened, but he let out a long sigh and commanded lightly to Huang Jin, who was waiting outside.

If it was other internal prisons, I am afraid that they would have already lost their minds, and it would be difficult to hear such a soft voice clearly. But Huang Jin is "loyal" and "conscientious", but he hears it clearly.

Huang Jin responded, and immediately went outside to give instructions to a little eunuch, and at the same time faintly smelled that a big storm in the court was coming.
