Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Hall of Words is Terrible
"Your Majesty wants to requisition the White Crane Tower?" Lin Lifu's face was angry.
"Yes, the school wants to recruit the children of the common people, they have nowhere to stay, Your Majesty requisitioned the White Crane Tower, and ordered it to be transformed for its use." The officials of the Hanlin Academy didn't know why Lin Lifu reacted so violently.
"Do you know whose property is the White Crane Tower?" Lin Xiang took a few shots.
"Qi Ran, he has moved out and is being sold, Your Majesty orders Lin Xiang to give reasonable compensation."
"Okay, the school wants to recruit civilian children, and I don't agree." Lin Lifu was really angry in his heart.
This school was run by him, and he did not use the government's money, and this land was also bought and sold at a price, after all, to build a school in Chen Yu's residence, Emperor Chen has been partial to Chen Yu for a long time, he has an extra mind, according to the procedure to obtain this land to build a school, this school is his Lin family's private school, now how can His Majesty not consult with him, directly order the expansion of new students!
"Xiangye, the lower officials know that this school is your Lin family's private school, but Xiangye also knows that the whole world is not the king's minister, and the shore of the land is not the king's land. Although Xiangye is the prime minister of a country, under one person and above ten thousand, there is still damage to Lin Xiangqing's reputation. The Hanlin official replied neither arrogantly nor humbly.
"Where did the prime minister come from? It is clearly the government forcibly seized! ”
Lin Lifu really can't tolerate it, he is the prime minister of Chen State, and he is still living such a nest, so you can imagine what kind of life the people of Chen State lived.
"Xiangye, if the school only teaches the children of the Lin family, it is indeed understandable, but the school teaches the son of an official in the capital, and the court is in the end, and the gentleman hired is also a famous person in the world, which is really inappropriate. Moreover, Xiang Ye's power in the imperial court is becoming more and more powerful, and Xiang Ye's move is really suspicious. ”
"The court has its own set of procedures for employing people, and the court uses it according to its talents, why not!"
"Xiangye, what do you think, the royal families of all dynasties could not tolerate the formation of gangs by court officials, and the reason is well known to everyone. Xiangye led the six departments, and the officials of the six ministries in the future are all students of Xiangye, whether it is today or in the future, they will be on pins and needles. ”
"When you are the son of heaven, a generation of famous monarchs, but you are such a chicken intestine in your mouth, and the reputation of the monarch of Chen State has been ruined by villains like you."
Lin Lifu did not admit his feelings, but was furious.
Hanlin officials came to persuade Lin Lifu, he had already thought of this set of rhetoric, he thought about Lin Lifu everywhere, even if he was dissatisfied, he would not embarrass himself, but now he was treated as a villain by Lin Lifu, and he was so angry that he gasped, and his long hair rose one after another.
"Sending off guests." Lin Lifu gave an eviction order.
The Hanlin officials didn't expect Lin Lifu to be so ruthless, threw up his sleeves and left, and did not make a farewell ceremony.
"Xiangye, when this person enters the palace to reply, he will definitely add fuel and vinegar to the saint to tell the truth." The housekeeper looked at the Hanlin official who stumbled out the door and said.
"That saint has never trusted the prime minister, the prime minister presides over the government, Your Majesty's trip is not in line with the law and reason, can't the prime minister fight with reason!"
"Xiangye, Your Majesty is sending someone to probe your tone. Xiangye commanded the officials of the six departments, and he was strict with them, and there were many people who were dissatisfied in private. If Emperor Chen puts pressure on the parents of the students who are enrolled in the school, this school will be empty. The eldest lady left home, the second lady was not good at studying, there was no one to teach in the school, and the seven gentlemen were paid a lot of money, and it was hot for the prime minister to stay. ”
"If there are no students, there is no need to continue to run the school. It's always okay to close the door! ”
The housekeeper didn't expect Lin Xiang, who had always been sensible, to make such an irrational decision. I don't know what to say for a while.
"Okay, you go down, don't buy the White Crane Tower for the time being." Lin Lifu commanded.
"Our people have negotiated a good price with the young lady, and we are waiting for the payment of the deed."
"Isn't it that the deal hasn't been completed yet, it's okay to break the contract, she wants to break the contract money, just give it to her." Lin Lifu was in an irritable mood, and he vaguely felt that since Lin Yanran and Qi Ran were together, his life had not been good.
Although the housekeeper didn't quite understand what Lin Xiang meant, he knew in his heart that Lin Yanran was in Lin Xiang's heart.
The second lady can't replace the position of the eldest lady in Lin Xiang's heart, just as the second lady can't replace the position of the eldest lady.
......
"Uncle refused?" Chen Huang heard the report from his subordinates and walked around the room.
He thought that Lin Xiang was irrational, even if Emperor Chen wanted to recruit the children of commoners, the school was still under Lin Xiang's control, and it was still the future talents of the imperial court that were being cultivated. As long as the seven gentlemen are there, the school is a private Hanlin Academy, and the court will also give preference to the school disciples.
And Lin Xiang's refusal not only embarrassed Emperor Chen, but also damaged his own reputation.
Lin Xiang presided over the government, what kind of wind and waves have not passed, how can he be confused in this trivial matter?
"Lin Xiang's heart is not steady." Wei Xu was not surprised by Lin Xiang's decision.
"Why?" Chen Huang believes that this matter is not difficult to handle.
"Next to the school is the Chen Yu Courtyard."
"What does this have to do with that person?"
"Emperor Chen has always been better to that person than the crown prince, and this prince should understand." Wei Xu said lightly, he looked at his pair of dustless white shoes, and his eyes seemed to only care about his own shoes.
"I don't need to be reminded of this." Chen Huang said in a muffled voice.
"The sons of those officials can be controlled by His Highness, but the children of the commoners are not controlled, and the seven gentlemen are not controlled by His Highness. There are many students in the school, and if the school is not enough, it must be expanded, and the place where it can be expanded should be clear to His Highness. ”
"In this way, the existing prohibition is broken, and that person can get along with the students, and it is reasonable to have a relationship with the seven gentlemen."
"The White Crane Tower has become a dormitory for students, which also breaks the regulations of Erli Street, and this rule is broken again and again, and Lin Xiang is afraid that it will be out of control."
"It's still my uncle who thinks about it." Chen Huang sighed lowly.
Chen Huang really worked hard for Chen Yu. Only his uncle is his opponent. Now he understands why Emperor Chen knows that Lin Lifu is big, and he has to endure the reason.
"Chen Guojun and his ministers are both talents. The monarch can endure it, all because the minister has no ambition! In terms of the prince, it is understandable for the prime minister to support his nephew, and isn't the monarch also supporting his eldest son? There is a tacit understanding between this monarch and minister, as long as the other party does not break the limit of what they can tolerate, they can be at peace. Once someone wants to break it, Chen Guo will be greatly damaged. Wei Xu said lightly, "I bet that Emperor Chen will fight on this." ”
"Status quo?"
"It's a good thing for Your Highness."
......
"This old fox." Emperor Chen's gaze became cold after the Hanlin officials lashed out at Lin Xiang generously.
"Your Majesty, the humiliation of the minister is a small matter, and he Lin Lifu does not have His Majesty in his eyes, which is absolutely intolerable to the minister."
"Alright, you go down." Emperor Chen waved his hand to the official, who was still waiting for the next step with a pair of eager eyes, and ordered him to step back first.
When the official retreated, there was more suspicion in his eyes, and Emperor Chen endured it like this? Is the royal family really afraid of the ministers?
The Hanlin official has always focused on learning and does not know much about political affairs, but he cannot accept that the dignified monarch will be afraid of his courtiers.
"Sir, it's better not to think too much about this matter." The attendant who sent him out of the palace often reminded.
"Why? Others are afraid of him, but I don't believe in this evil! The official said solemnly.
"You can't break this rule. Domino effect. Sir is so self-aware. Shi Chang smiled faintly, he was used to seeing the court game, if this court became a hall of words, it would be the most terrifying.
