Zhou Shangjing's seemingly dim old eyes glanced at Li He deeply, and said meaningfully: "Li He, you are now an auxiliary minister of the cabinet, an example of a hundred officials, and a pillar of the imperial court. Although we are building a faction, the foundation of the party is still the imperial court, and as the dignity of the cabinet ministers, we must always take into account the faction and the overall situation, otherwise we will not be able to stand on the long-term, and sooner or later we will fall on our heels, you must remember this! ”

Seeing Li He thoughtfully, Zhou Shangjing's expression was a little serious, and he said slowly: "The more this time, the more we can't suppress Liang Fuchen, because Liang Fuchen is the only important minister in the imperial court who is capable of presiding over the overall situation of Shaanxi and Gansu!" If we take the opportunity to suppress Liang Fuchen, we will be happy for a while, but who will support the Shaanxi-Gansu border defense? Once there is a mistake in the border defense, let the Mongol army break through the border defense and drive straight in, will there be any benefit for you and me, as cabinet assistants? Not to mention the same responsibility, how should the history book and the pen evaluate us? What's more, Your Majesty is angry, if you and I take the opportunity to provoke, Liang Fuchen will certainly be unlucky, but when Your Majesty calms down, Liang Fuchen will still be safe after all, but it is you and I who will make Your Majesty hold a grudge in his heart! ”

After hearing Zhou Shangjing's explanation, Li He was finally convinced and said, "I see! It's because the student's vision is too short-sighted, not as thoughtful as Zhou Ge Lao, and he only sees that Liang Fuchen may threaten Zhou Ge Lao's future position as the first assistant, but he ignores the overall situation a little, thank you Zhou Ge Lao for your advice! ”

Zhou Shangjing shook his head, looked a little regretful, and said: "Don't worry, it is difficult for Liang Fuchen to sit in the position of the first assistant of the cabinet!" He has vision, means, and ability, but he is too upright, too public-minded and too selfish, which is of course the reason why His Majesty trusts him, but it is also his flaws and shortcomings...... At our level, a person who only has selfishness and no public heart cannot stand for a long time, but if he only has public and private intentions and no selfishness, he will also not be able to climb to the peak of the people! …… Again, it is necessary to take into account the faction and the overall situation. ”

Speaking of this, Zhou Shangjing suddenly smiled and said: "In addition, after arranging for Liang Fuchen to go to Shaanxi and Gansu to preside over the overall situation, he will not have any threat!" Just like what the old man just said, Liang Fuchen is the only important minister in the imperial court who has the ability to preside over the overall situation of Shaanxi and Gansu, which means that Liang Fuchen will stay there for a long time after going to Shaanxi and Gansu this time...... Li He: How long do you think Shen Changmao can stay in the position of first assistant to the cabinet? If after the fall of Shen Changmao, Liang Fuchen still stays in the northwest, who will be in the hands of the first assistant of the cabinet? ”

Li He's face was suddenly revealed, and his eyes were full of admiration.

Obviously, Zhou Shangjing supported Liang Fuchen to go to the northwest to preside over the overall situation, which not only stabilized the border defense of the imperial court, but also took the opportunity to eliminate Liang Fuchen's threat to the position of the first assistant of the cabinet, which is "taking into account the faction and the overall situation"!

In addition to admiration in his heart, Li He was a little puzzled and asked, "Elder Zhou Ge, do you think Shen Changmao is about to fall?" But the student thinks that although Shen Changmao is unable to control the overall situation of the imperial court, his position is quite stable for the time being...... There was no sign that he was going to fall......"

Zhou Shangjing smiled again and said: "The imperial court is currently an eventful season, and Shen Changmao is unable to control the overall situation, so how can he stabilize his position?" Look at it, after the war in the northwest is over, it will be the beginning of Shen Changmao's downfall! And the introduction of this matter is His Majesty's punishment of Zhao Junchen for exceeding his authority! This time Zhao Junchen acted beyond his authority, His Majesty will inevitably punish and take the opportunity to suppress Zhao Junchen's power influence, but how can Zhao Junchen be the one who accepts punishment? At that time, under Zhao Junchen's secret tricks, the Ministry of Industry, the Ministry of Households, the United Shipping Company, and even the entire temple will be shaken! And Shen Changmao is the scapegoat for this series of shocks! ”

After pondering for a moment, Li He nodded, "It's indeed possible!" In this way, we also need to prepare early! However, if the situation in the temple continues to develop like this, the position of the first assistant of the cabinet will soon return to the hands of Zhou Ge Lao! ”

Speaking of the back, Li He was already excited!

Zhou Shangjing didn't have much excitement, but his expression was a little more solemn, and he said slowly: "Speaking of Zhao Junchen...... This time, the old man urged Liang Fuchen to go to the northwest of Shaanxi and Gansu as soon as possible to preside over the overall situation, which was also to prevent Zhao Junchen from interfering in military power...... Zhao Junchen can't be underestimated, the old man always feels that his overstepping his authority this time, and even the act of setting aside the governor of the northwest, was premeditated, just to meddle in the military power! ”

As Zhou Shangjing's words fell, Li He couldn't help but be shocked: "Zhao Junchen wants to meddle in the military power?" He—Does he have the guts? ”

Zhou Shangjing's eyes were deep, his voice was a little cold, and he said: "To be honest, Zhao Junchen's growth is too fast, especially in the last six months, even the old man sometimes can't see through his mind...... However, his ambitions are indeed getting bigger, which is not a good thing! …… His Majesty obviously has the same concern, and today he specially told Liang Fuchen to investigate in detail what Zhao Junchen did in Shaanxi and Gansu, and also strictly forbade Zhao Junchen to interfere in military affairs again, obviously out of such considerations! ”

Hearing Zhou Shangjing's words, Li He's expression gradually became serious, frowning and thinking deeply.

When there was silence, Zhou Shangjing and Li He had already returned to the door of the Wenhua Palace.

Because of all the changes in the northwest, the two of them have to deal with many things in the Wenhua Hall next.

Before stepping into the Wenhua Palace, Zhou Shangjing suddenly spoke again: "By the way, during this time, you sent someone to keep an eye on Shen Changmao!" This person has average ability, but his heart is high, and after discovering Zhao Junchen's intention to annex the 'Shen Party', he felt that he had been humiliated, and he only thought about revenge on Zhao Junchen in his heart...... The old man was worried that in order to take revenge on Zhao Junchen this time, he would deliberately delay the defense of the northwest frontier, and finally let Zhao Junchen carry the black pot...... Normally, he and Zhao Junchen fought openly and secretly, but at this time, if he still didn't know the severity, the old man would have to teach him a lesson, even if Zhao Junchen really had the intention of meddling in the military power, but he must not hinder the imperial court's border defense plan! ”

Hearing Zhou Shangjing's order, Li He couldn't help but be stunned again.

But after thinking about it for a while, Li He thought that Zhou Shangjing's various concerns were indeed possible, so he said in a deep voice: "Elder Zhou Ge, don't worry, the student will definitely keep an eye on Shen Changmao, if he wants to delay the northwest frontier defense regardless of the overall situation, the student will immediately inform Elder Zhou Ge." ”

While speaking, the two of them had already stepped into the Wenhua Hall and began to get busy for the northwest battle situation.

*

In order to prevent the panic of the people, the imperial court temporarily suppressed all kinds of things in the northwestern provinces.

However, in the afternoon of this day, there was one thing that attracted the attention of the government and the opposition, that is, Emperor Deqing ordered the cane to kill more than ten high-level eunuchs in Dongchang, including Feng Desheng, the governor of Dongchang!

Since the reconstruction of the West Factory, the East Factory or negligence or dereliction of duty, sometimes bad things, Emperor Deqing has been dissatisfied with the East Factory for a long time, and this time the governors of the northwest provinces privately colluded to conceal the imperial court to appease the Mongols and sue for peace, the East Factory was completely unaware, but it was unbearable for the Deqing Emperor, and finally made up his mind to completely rectify the East Factory.

In the end, all the high-level leaders of the entire East Factory were purged under the anger of Emperor Deqing, and Emperor Deqing finally vented his anger in his heart, and the East Factory was also greatly injured.

On the contrary, it is the West Factory, because it has been established for a short time, and the influence has not yet expanded to the northwest, and this time it has escaped the wrath of the Deqing Emperor.

In this way, many things of Emperor Deqing can only rely on Xichang to be responsible!

And at the same time that the government and the opposition officials and people were speculating about Emperor Deqing's action to rectify the Dongchang, Fang Ru, who had been low-key for a period of time, finally made a move!

While Zhao Junchen arranged for Bao Wenjie to return to the capital to report the situation to Emperor Deqing, he also arranged for a staff member to return to the capital to report the news to the Zhao Mansion and the "Zhao Party".

Therefore, on this day, Fang Ru also learned about the various changes in the northwest provinces.

After learning of the unprecedented threat of the Mongol army, Fang Ru was quite worried about Zhao Junchen's safety, but Fang Ru also knew very well that it was useless to worry about herself, and now her most important thing was to use these changes to fight for Zhao Junchen's greatest interests!

Therefore, after thinking about it for a long time, Fang Ru suddenly went to Tongji Temple secretly.

Nowadays, the influence of Tongji Temple in the capital has been great, not only has tens of thousands of pious believers, and the relationship with the yamen in the capital is also excellent, and the momentum is faintly not inferior to several century-old temples near the capital.

In this case, Zhang Daoquan, the host of Tongji Temple, has become a figure of the people in Beijing, not only a living immortal in the eyes of believers, but also a guest of honor in the court, and his every move has a great influence.

On weekdays, it is not easy for even the nobles of the capital to meet Zhang Daoquan, but Fang Ru is naturally different, Zhang Daoquan is actually just a puppet in Fang Ru's hands, he has always been respectful and does not dare to have any slack!

Therefore, when he heard the news of Fang Ru's visit, Zhang Daoquan did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly showed up to meet him.

After seeing Fang Ru, Zhang Daoquan was a little trembling - since Fang Ru began to be in charge of the affairs of Tongji Temple, Zhang Daoquan was a little afraid of Fang Ru, not only because Fang Ru was not easy to fool, but also because Fang Ru would give him some very difficult tasks every time he appeared, which cost him countless amounts of energy every time.

"The villain greets Mrs. Ruyi! I haven't seen you for a few days, Mrs. Ruyi ......"

However, without waiting for Zhang Daoquan's flattering words to finish, Fang Ru had already ordered neatly: "Time is limited, I won't stay too long, don't say polite words, Zhang Daoquan, I have three things that you need to do right now!" ”
