Beijing, Bihai Palace.

Yu Shen came in and said: "Your Highness, Lord An Mingtai'an, the secretary of the Ministry of Justice, is waiting outside the hall at the moment, and it seems that he has come to discuss with His Highness about this year's new department." ”

Anmingtai?

A few days ago, His Majesty did hand over the matter of meeting the new bachelor to himself, and how to arrange these people is also a matter for the ministry, and it is not surprising that An Mingtai came, but Suo Ji thought that An Mingtai would get in the way of Yi Liangchun's letter, so that others would perfunctory him, but he didn't expect to come in person.

"Since An Shangshu is here, then you go and call Yu Jinglin of Zhan Shifu over, since it is to discuss how to arrange a new bachelor, this palace naturally wants to avoid it, and only supervise the whole process." Suo Ji acted cautiously, and while An Mingtai turned around and told His Majesty that he had exceeded his authority.

An Mingtai came in and invited An, and presented the roster and the situation, background, and furniture of the new bachelor's degree, and everything was very clear.

"An Shangshu doesn't have to rush this, the people from the Free Zhan Mansion go and discuss with An Shangshu, and An Shangshu will take a sip of tea first."

"Your Highness, this matter was personally decreed by His Majesty, and His Highness does not need to worry about it." Seeing that he didn't accept it, An Mingtai understood that Suo Ji was afraid that he would be charged with winning over new scholars, which was equivalent to winning over the ministers to form a party for personal gain.

Suo Ji smiled and said: "An Shangshu, this palace is the crown prince, but you are not allowed to participate in too much court politics, this is the rule." Since there are Zhan Shifu in the East Palace, the left and right spring fangs, and there are three temples below, then they should be busy, otherwise wouldn't they be white-collar? ”

"That's what Your Highness said."

"An Shangshu has heard that after the Mid-Autumn Festival, King Yong'an wants to take the niece of Lang's servant as a side concubine? This is a happy event, An Shangshu and Lang Shizhong have always been friends, but they want to celebrate. Suo Ji teased.

An Mingtai's face changed a few times, and he was silent for a while, but he lifted his robe and knelt on the ground.

Seeing this, Suo Ji narrowed his eyes, his eyes sneered, but he sat down like a mountain and picked up the teacup, "What does An Shangshu mean by this?" ”

"Since His Highness has opened his mouth, the minister has something to say, even if His Highness has already made up his mind in his heart, please allow the minister to explain." An Mingtai was very firm and honest.

"Then An Shangshu will say it bluntly."

There is no way to hide from this matter, Suo Ji will ask him sooner or later, An Mingtai sighed, "Regarding the prison of the Crown Prince Cui Langru in the Detention Department, the minister is very guilty. But please also ask His Highness to believe that the minister did not reveal any news to Lang Shihua, nor did he go with him. ”

"Before Lang Shihua went to Qiansheng Hall to report Su Yuanjun's letter, he did come to the minister and asked about the letter, but the minister was also very puzzled at the time, obviously it was Mr. Yi's hometown that he secretly sent someone, how did he know?" An Mingtai raised his head with a puzzled expression, and his expression was also very puzzled.

Suo Ji skimmed the foam in the teacup, and thought about things in his heart, "What did he ask you?" ”

He asked the minister that the letter was written by Su Yuanjun to Mr. Yi, and the minister suspected that maybe Lang Shihua knew something back then. Because the letter was asked by Mrs. Yi to be picked up by the minister, and there are also some explanations of Mr. Yi's life, Mrs. Yi wants the descendants of the court to know that Mr. Yi is a good person! ”

Speaking of this, Suo Ji's heart was sour and unbearable, and he vaguely felt trembling. A generation of everyone, the prince and the prince, have made many contributions to the literary world of Daliang, loyal and dedicated. In the end, he only got one, and he wanted future generations to think that he was a good person!

It's really like what Su Fengjin said, the world is unfair......

"An Shangshu means that you didn't show Lang Shihua the content of that letter, nor did you tell Lang Shihua anything else, but Lang Shihua knew that Su Yuanjun wrote it to Mr. Yi before he died?" Suo Ji was surprised, could it be that Lang Shihua had such the audacity to say in front of His Majesty that he had made up his own guesses, and kept these people in the dark?

"The minister has been close friends with Su Shangshu for many years, and the little girl is also a close friend of Su Shangshu's daughter, how can she tell Lang Shihua and other wolf ambitions about things that are not conducive to Su Shangshu?" An Mingtai was also stunned, with a look of guilt on his face.

Suo Ji stared at An Mingtai in surprise and asked, "Ling Yan and Su Yuanjun's daughter are good friends?" ”

"yes." An Mingtai didn't understand why Suo Ji was focusing on this matter.

But Suo Ji leaned back in his chair, if this was the case, then An Mingtai must have seen Su Fengjin as well. He rubbed his forehead, this capital is terrible, but it is also terrifying......

"An Shangshu, since you have been friends with Su Yuanjun for many years, now that Su Fengyi is the crown prince's guard, can your position be clear?"

Seeing Suo Ji raising his eyebrows and staring at him, An Mingtai smiled slightly, "Your Highness, the minister is in charge of the ministry, and the talent transfer of the Great Liang is in the hands of the minister." All the minister can do is to be impartial, if there is partiality, wouldn't it be like a thousand miles of embankment destroyed in an anthill? ”

Suo Ji got up in front of him and helped him up with one hand, "Since Lord An has said this, this palace will understand." ”

"Your Highness, although the minister is impartial, he can also distinguish between good and bad. Please also ask Your Highness to trust, the ministers and Duan Zaifu generally only want to hand over the Great Liang Jiangshan to the orthodox Ming Jun! An Mingtai and Suo Ji looked at each other, their eyes shining, and it was not a lie.

Suo Ji nodded, and his impression of An Mingtai changed instantly. "Thank you, Lord Ann. It's just that there is one thing, this palace still wants to ask An Shangshu, there is a person named Lin Shulu in the new department this time? ”

"But there is, but this Lin Shuqi is not the most outstanding, before the king of Yong'an was claustrophobic, he came to find the minister, and also mentioned the matter of this year's new talents, presumably he wanted to settle the settlement in advance for his own use, but he didn't choose Lin Shuqian alone." Therefore, An Mingtai was extremely impressed by Lin Shuqi.

"Oh? It's no wonder that he doesn't like Lin Shu, King Yong'an has always liked to make friends with the sons of powerful people and have a good relationship with the family. Lin Shulu was born in a businessman, and everything he saw and said was rebellious, if it wasn't for Duan Zaifu's recommendation, I was afraid that he would be removed. ”

"Your Highness wants to meet this Lin Shu?"

Suo Ji frowned, and he didn't think clearly about what to do, "What does An Shangshu think of this Lin Shu?" ”

An Mingtai hesitated for a moment and said: "Lin Shuqi is indeed arrogant and rebellious, but what he said has indeed been carefully pondered, but it is somewhat similar to Mr. Yi back then. ”

"Yes......"

"What else does Your Highness have to say?"

"An Shangshu, if this Lin Shulu is not liked by others, and he is so troublesome, it is better to send him to a small place, so as not to attract attention. What do you think? ”

An Mingtai understood that this was Suo Ji to protect Lin Shuguan, "What His Royal Highness said is very true, if it weren't for this, this Lin Shu's temperament is only afraid that it will not only be difficult to get along with the old ministers of the court, but also difficult to get along with this year's new scholars." The ministers will advise Your Majesty to properly settle Lin Shu. ”

Nodding slightly, Suo Ji turned around and walked two steps, hesitantly turned back and said, "Lord An, it's not been peaceful outside recently, so it's better to let Ling Ai go out less or not at all." ”

An Mingtai didn't know what he meant, but the prince's mind was not something he could guess, so he hurriedly replied "yes" and retired.

"Yu Shen, is Yu Jinglin here?"

"Your Highness, Yu Zhan Shi came over, but he let people go back again. Your Highness, guess who's coming? ”
