Lin Yanchao left from the East Pavilion and returned to the Hanlin Courtyard, when he saw Chen Jichuan coming in a hurry.

Lin Yanchao knew that something was happening, and immediately asked, "What's the matter?" ”

Chen Jichuan said: "The master has been impeached. ”

Lin Yanchao asked, "What's impeachment?" ”

Chen Jichuan copied a piece of yellow paper and handed it to Lin Yanchao.

Lin Yanchao looked at the transcript above, and saw that it was written by the Criminal Department to Liu Gongming in the matter, and when he was impeaching himself for teaching Shu Jishi in the Hanlin Academy, he did not teach Shu Chang according to the original arrangement of the library class, did not teach his literature, did not teach his poetry, did not teach his etiquette, and taught some novelties, and even had apostasy words. Therefore, the impeachment chapter demanded that Lin Yanchao be dismissed or reappointed to another position.

Lin Yanchao sneered and said, "It's just to hinder me from going up this time, and it's not the first time I've been impeached, so there's nothing to worry about." ”

Chen Jichuan said: "Master, according to the law, if an official is impeached, he will either be negligent and self-justified, or he will be suspended from office pending impeachment. ”

Lin Yanchao said: "Yes, this time I can't defend myself and argue with others on this point." ”

After speaking, Lin Yanchao said: "This matter is not imminent, everything will be said after I meet Yuanfu." ”

Chen Jichuan nodded and made him tea before leaving.

Lin Yanchao drank tea and pondered, thinking that this was most likely Zhang Whale's disgusting of himself.

After a while, after Lin Yanchao handed over his official duties, he went to Wenyuan Pavilion.

The two Chinese scholars on duty in Wenyuan Pavilion immediately greeted Lin Yanchao when they saw him coming.

One person said: "Master Lin, Yuan Fu and Pavilion Elder are talking to several ministers in the meeting room. ”

Lin Yanchao nodded and said, "If that's the case, then I'll just wait outside." ”

Another Chinese scholar said with a smile: "Yuan Fu has an order, Master Lin is his own person, he doesn't have to wait outside, he just goes to the duty room." ”

Lin Yanchao nodded when he heard this, and at that moment, two Chinese scholars invited Lin Yanchao into the first auxiliary duty room, one made him tea with his hands and feet, and the other accompanied Lin Yanchao to talk, asking him if he wanted to take off his official hat or hand him a hand stove.

Those who can serve as the secretary of Wenyuan Pavilion and foresee the confidential are not ordinary people.

These two Chinese scholars are only in their twenties, which is quite young, but they are very shrewd and capable.

Lin Yanchao looked at the two of them, and couldn't help but think of the days when he gave Zhang Juzheng and Zhang Siwei a hand in the cabinet.

In history, in order to infiltrate the cabinet, the Donglin Party placed a small official named Wang Wenyan into the cabinet as a secretary of the middle school, and served as a counselor for Ye Xianggao.

Lin Yanchao chatted a few words, and the two Chinese scholars knew that he had something important to tell Shen Shixing, but they didn't dare to talk more.

Lin Yanchao sat on the wide and comfortable chair in the first auxiliary duty room, and the sunlight in the duty room was very good, just sprinkled on his body. Lin Yanchao took a sip of fragrant tea slightly, and then thought about how to report to Shen Shixing for a while.

At this time, footsteps sounded outside the duty room, and Lin Yanchao immediately opened his eyes, got up and stood by the door.

The other two Zhongshu, who were sorting out official documents, were stunned for a moment, and took a slow beat before standing up.

By the time they were standing, Lin Yanchao had already checked whether there was anything wrong with his sideburns.

Waiting for the door on duty to be pushed, Lin Yanchao immediately saluted when he saw Shen Shixing: "The student has seen the teacher." ”

Shen Shixing said with a smile: "The old man is still thinking about when you will come to see me." ”

After speaking, Shen Shixing signaled to retreat left and right.

After the door of the duty room was closed again, Lin Yanchao saw that Shen Shixing was in a good mood, and it was expected that he was busy meeting several scholars from the Ministry of Officials, Households, and Industry in the morning, and he still didn't know about his impeachment.

Do you still mention it at this time, Lin Yanchao thought about it and still felt that it was unnecessary, such a thing was not worth mentioning compared to the matter of dismantling the pure army, if he asked Shen Shixing for help in everything, wouldn't it seem useless.

Lin Yanchao immediately said: "Let the teacher wait for a long time, the student has been following the teacher's instructions in the past few months, and has been contacting the matter of the abolition of the pure army in the DPRK and China, and now there are a few things that need to be decided by the teacher." ”

Shen Shixing stretched out his hand to warm up in front of the charcoal basin and said with a smile: "With your temperament, this matter is not ** certain, you will not come to the old man." This time, you came forward to contact me, did anyone embarrass you? ”

Lin Yanchao said with a smile: "Everyone looks at the face of the teacher, how can they embarrass the students." ”

Shen Shixing smiled, and Lin Yanchao said: "However, the student did not play the banner of a teacher this time, but the officials all gave Qi Shichen the need for a teacher in the matter." ”

Shen Shixing smiled and said: "This person is an old skin with pus and sores, and he has the most twists and turns among the courtiers." ”

Shen Shixing said a local word in Suzhou, and Lin Yanchao smiled in agreement.

"How did he speak?"

Lin Yanchao said: "He wants to let the official Kezuo give Yang Tingxiang to take over the matter." ”

Shen Shixing was silent after hearing this.

Lin Yanchao immediately said: "Qi Shichen and the students have a message to the teacher. He said that as long as Yang Tingxiang could take office, then he could at least make no big moves on the side of the Metropolitan Procuratorate. When this person was appointed as a clerk in the middle of the matter, he was sponsored by his teacher, and now he really doesn't know how to use this as a bargaining chip. ”

Shen Shixing took a sip of tea and said: "You go back and tell it, just say that the old man agreed, and after he is full of rank, the old man will promote him as the Shaoqing of Taichang Temple." ”

Shaoqing of Taichang Temple is a fourth-grade official, and he is only a seventh-grade official, and he is promoted to six levels in a row.

However, the officials are all transferred in the middle of the matter, and it is quite normal to be able to serve as the Shaoqing of Taichang Temple, and the Shaoqing of Taifu Temple.

But if you offend the big guy in office, then you will become the Shaoqing of the South Taichang Temple, or the Shaoqing of the South Taifu Temple.

Shen Shixing said to Lin Yanchao: "When Li Zhishang attacked the old man, Qi Shichen mostly ran for the old man in the Kedao, but now he is about to retreat, and the old man can be regarded as a favor." ”

Lin Yanchao was stunned.

As for other things, Lin Yanchao also talked about them one by one, and in the end, he said: "Teacher, the students and other officials all think that after the abolition of the pure army, the household department will still provide 300,000 taels to the inner court every year, which is an additional amount, so I implore the teacher to cut one or two as appropriate in front of the saint, for example, the household department will only give the inner court 100,000 taels every year." ”

Shen Shixing shook his head when he heard this: "What is the difference between 300,000 taels and 100,000 taels to outsiders? Fifty steps and a hundred steps of laughter. ”

"Those who are not in harmony with me, even if it is reduced to 10,000 taels a year, they still hold on to it. On the contrary, if the Holy One thinks that you are scheming with him, and angrily does not allow this matter of dismantling the pure army, you and I will give up all the achievements. ”

Lin Yanchao listened to Shen Shixing's words and knew that there were some bar spirits in the court.

In their eyes, giving the emperor 300,000 taels is no different from 100,000 taels, which should not be given, and one tael of silver is redundant.

Even if you come forward and try your best to get 200,000 silver for the household, the emperor will be very unhappy, and these people will scold you. If he cut off the 200,000 taels, will the 100,000 taels of silver never be repaid in the future?

What do they do, you ask? You can do it, you can do it.

They said that they would argue with the Son of Heaven, and if the Son of Heaven would not do so, they would resign.

This is the brain circuit of the bartenders.

Lin Yanchao said: "Teacher, but the officials are already very complaining about the apportionment of the household department, and when the students raised this matter with hundreds of millions of colleagues, they accused me of blindly flattering. Even if you don't care about people's words, you can get one or two for Taicang, last year's drought in Shandong, Henan flood, the household department still intends to apportionment of silver in Shandong, I don't know how many people died because of urging, and this money from the hands of the people, just to raise these 3,000 horses for His Majesty. ”

Shen Shixing said: "What you said, the old man doesn't know, but those who are officials must know what is the economy and what is the power, and the first thing at the moment is to abolish the net army, and the rest will be talked about later." ”

Generally, the conversation is similar here, but Lin Yanchao still argued: "Teacher, can you discuss a thing or two with Your Majesty?" ”

Shen Shixing shook his head and said: "This matter is not negotiable, now as long as Qi Shichen and Huke have no objections, even if one or two of the rest of the officials are dissatisfied, they will not set off too much turmoil." Once this matter is accomplished, with the clear hope you have accumulated over the years, no matter whether the government and the opposition are clear and turbid, they all think that you Lin Yanchao has the ability to influence the court situation and admonish the Son of Heaven, so it will be a matter of time before you enter the cabinet to worship the prime minister. ”

Lin Yanchao said: "Bachelor, thank you for the cultivation of your teacher, but the students think that this Taicang silver is the common people, and the precedent cannot be taken lightly, and the teacher can't ask for anything from Your Majesty." ”

Shen Shixing's face sank when he heard this, and said, "The holy will does not allow it, what else can you do?" Do you want the old man to take the hundred officials to cry in front of the Fengtian Gate? ”

Lin Yanchao was speechless when he heard this.

After a pause, Shen Shixing said again: "You think about this matter, if you still can't figure it out, the old man will be replaced." ”

What is the power of Shousuke?

That's it for now.

Shen Shixing's character is easy to discuss, but it doesn't mean that he is really a good negotiator.

He wants to change Lin Yanchao and choose someone else to do this, which is not just a casual talk. Shen Shixing has a lot of candidates in his hands.

But Lin Yanchao bet that he wouldn't, because now the hundred officials are very dissatisfied with the exemption of the Son of Heaven from the dynasty, and this matter has already set fire to Shen Shixing.

Shen Shixing dispelled this situation, and he had to use this matter to regain his impression of the Son of Heaven in front of the hundred officials.

Lin Yanchao slowly dragged out the matter for three months, and it also made Shen Shixing's choice less and less.

For Shen Shixing, time is running out, and the risk is too great.

And in Lin Yanchao's eyes, forget if you don't do it, since you want to do it, you have to do it beautifully, so that everyone has nothing to say.

But seeing Lin Yanchao's positive face, he said: "The student didn't mean to offend the teacher in the slightest, just for the teacher, now in front of the seat, the upper is the Son of Heaven, and the lower is the hundred officials, but you can't listen to which side is hard, let alone become a mouse in the bellows and get angry!" ”

"The students hope that the teacher will be neutral in the DPRK, and this matter is an opportunity, please trust the student again and let the student do it."

Shen Shixing didn't speak, and the room fell into a solemn atmosphere, and the two of them were also extremely depressed.

Shen Shixing pondered for a long time and said: "The first assistant who controls the Son of Heaven and presses down the hundred officials has been raided by the Son of Heaven. ”

"That's it, the old man will go to the secret to reveal it to the Son of Heaven, exempt the household department from the scraping silver allocated to the provinces, and then give the internal horse to the Beijing camp for resettlement, this is the final bottom line, what do you think?"

Lin Yanchao was overjoyed when he heard this: "Students, thank you teacher. ”
