"Hey, hey"

Hearing Li Biao's words, Jiang Deshen and the others laughed and broke their wrists.

"What's the matter", the man was obviously frightened by a few big men, but his face still looked strong.

"The surname Liu suggested to the emperor that he should lay off the officials, and now the cabinet says that he wants to start with the sixth department, this is not to cut off my life, anyway, sooner or later I will starve to death, what is wrong with me coming up to ask for justice."

"", Li Biao scolded in his mouth.

"Brother Biao, what should I do, do you still want to get it?"

Li Biao frowned and swept the person, and shook his head: "Don't be busy yet, wait until I ask the second brother." ”

In the main hall of the Earl's Palace, Liu Ximing was sending away several Sichuan petty officials who came to visit, but when he heard Li Biao walk in and say such a news, he was shocked in his heart.

"Bring him to me."

When the man was carried into the main hall, Liu Ximing took a closer look, and couldn't help frowning.

Dressed in a robe, he is obviously a scholar, looking at his slender fingers, only the knuckles and wrists are a little calloused, needless to say, it is also the reason why he has been busy with cases all year round.

Could this person also be a scribe among the six books?

Liu Ximing slowly walked back to the main seat, picked up the teacup and asked slowly, "Which ministry are you from?" ”

"Officials ......"

This man was pinched to death by Liu Ximing's posture, and subconsciously said it directly.

"Bastard", Liu Ximing slapped on the coffee table, but grinned in pain.

"As a public servant, you dare to attack the meritorious mansion, don't you want to live?"

The man laughed miserably, "The new Amber is so majestic, but if you really want to reform the rule of officials as you said, I will have no way to live, and I will not be able to live." ”

Liu Ximing frowned, "Where did you hear these gossips, you dare to come to me to find trouble." ”

The scribe-like man calmed down at this moment, and he rolled over and sat up from the ground.

"Xin'an Bo also listened to it, I am a person from the Ministry of Officials, these news are naturally very well-informed, you don't dare to take the ministers of the DPRK and the Central People's Republic of China, but only open the knife to me and other small officials, and your Majesty also praises your young talent, in my opinion, it is just a person who tends to be inflammatory."

"Dog, you're looking for death!"

Liu Ximing was not angry, but Li Biao took the lead in scolding.

"Stand down", Liu Ximing glanced at Li Biao.

"Is Benjue wrong? You wait for the officials to control government affairs, so that the officials do not know the people's feelings, so that the small people do not know the kindness of the court, deceive the superiors and conceal the subordinates, and make a lot of profits, if you have to move you, it is really funny, this lord wants to see, when the news spreads, there are more people in the world who applaud or abuse wantonly. ”

Liu Ximing stared at the man in front of him with a look of disgust

Child.

"Hehe, it's true to say that we are making a lot of profits, but which one of your courts is clean on the buttocks, we are just taking small heads, and the big heads have been taken away by these officials, why don't you dare to make it clear to the emperor, but you want to use us to open the knife, it is clear that you are bullying the soft and afraid of the hard."

The more the man spoke, the more excited he became, and he even had a tendency to get up from the ground, so Li Biao simply pressed him back with a strong step.

"Today you are powerful, I won't say more, you wait, sooner or later someone will come to the door to ask for justice."

"Wait, wait", Liu Ximing's brain hurt a little.

"Lao Tzu only said that he wanted to reform the rule of officials, but these specific measures are all agreed upon by the cabinet, and they have nothing to do with me, so what are you doing with me?"

When the man heard this, his head turned away and he no longer paid attention to Liu Ximing.

", second brother, if you want me to say that I can send him to the official directly, what nonsense is there to talk to him." , Li Biao's little irritability in his heart finally couldn't help it again.

Liu Ximing thought about it, and finally waved his hand, "Forget it, throw it out, let him go by himself, next time he dares to come again, it won't be so easy to get out." ”

Sending away this abrupt scribe, the uneasiness in Liu Ximing's heart lingered.

The rumor was spread before the reform of the officials was raised, if there was no greasy in this, Liu Xi would not believe it.

For Liu Ximing at the moment, it has nothing to do with him whether he changes it or not, but he is afraid that like today, Wen Tiren and these people will forcibly throw the pot on his head, and then he will be in a commotion.

No, you can't be so passive, Liu Ximing made up his mind.

He called Li Biao and the others to the study again, "Let our people dress up in disguise and go to the street to find some gangsters and beggars to spread the news, so to speak......

Li Biao, Jiang Deshen and the others listened to Liu Ximing's instructions, and their eyes were slanted with slanted smiles.

The situation was as Liu Ximing expected, and within two days, the news of the imperial court's reform of the rule of officials spread in the capital.

The people of Sijiu City perfectly inherited the genes of their hearts that earned money from selling cabbage and sold white flour, and began to vigorously discuss in the teahouses and taverns everywhere.

However, the atmosphere in Shoufu Wen Tiren's house that night was not so harmonious.

More than a dozen important members of the Zhejiang Party, large and small, gathered in the Wen Mansion, and all looked at Wen Tiren who was sitting in the main seat with intent.

Wen Tiren, who was originally calm, lost the elegance and calmness that Liu Ximing saw last time, but his face was full of anger and depravity.

Wang Qingbai, the servant of the ministry, swallowed his saliva, "Pavilion Elder, now the news is out, but there are rumors in the market that we want to gain power and engage in party struggle, so we specifically targeted the six departments." ”

"What else do you say after this time, I'm afraid that those people in the court still want to do things

I can only be a clay sculpture bodhisattva in the hall......"

"When", Wen Tiren couldn't hold back for a while, and directly threw the tea cup in his hand to the ground.

"Did you find out, who released these messages?"

Zhang Siyang, the imperial historian of the city patrol, bowed and replied: "I don't know who said it first, but during the recent visit of my subordinates, I found that many of them are the families of Zhang Pu, Ma Shiqi and others. ”

Wen Tiren was furious, "Sure enough, Donglin's gang is making trouble, and they just want to make this matter impossible to do." ”

Wang Qingbai's face was solemn, "I'm afraid it's more than that, I heard that the people of the Restoration Society have been planning Zhou Yanru's recovery recently?" My subordinates are afraid that these people want to take advantage of this to make trouble. ”

Everyone in the room gasped.

Although Zhou Yanru has gone to work, he has always been Wen Tiren's biggest target of defense, and now he is involved with Zhang Fu and others, so everyone can't help but think nonsense.

Wen Tiren stroked his beard with a solemn face, "This matter can no longer be done as we thought before, Yuan Xu, you take that list, and we will discuss it again." ”

While Wen Tiren and the others were discussing, a guest was ushered in in Zhang Pu's mansion of the Hanlin Academy.

"I have heard the name of Brother Qiandu for a long time, but unfortunately I never saw it when I was in Jiangnan, and today I finally got my brother's wish."

Liu Ximing was wearing a regular suit and greeted Zhang Pu who came to greet him with a happy face.

Zhang Pu had high eyebrows and slender cheeks, looking like a typical literati, and he obviously didn't expect Liu Ximing to be so enthusiastic.

"Earlier, Tai Chong, Ren Zhong and other friends wrote to praise Brother Wujiang for his quick thinking, and the Datong theory is unique, Pu has long wanted to face to face, but he didn't want to do it in such a blink of an eye, you are already the new Amber of the north and south, hahaha."

Liu Ximing smiled, "How dare the little brother in front of Brother Qiandu call this, you and I literati, only intersect with each other, don't talk about anything else." ”

"Hahaha, that's a good point", Zhang Pu laughed and welcomed Liu Ximing into the main hall.

After some greetings, Zhang Pu said with a smile: "Last time, thanks to the virtuous brother who sent someone to tell Wen Changqing what he planned, the foolish brother was able to arrange it as soon as possible, and now it has been rumored in the city, and Wen Changqing doesn't dare to risk the world's disapproval to push this matter." ”

Liu Ximing smiled awkwardly, "Speaking of which, this matter is still because of the younger brother, but I didn't expect Elder Wen Ge to be so familiar with party disputes, I'm really ashamed." ”

"Hmph, virtuous brother doesn't have to blame himself", Zhang Pu sneered: "In the future, when you enter the court, you will know that these mediocre officials will not do anything except fight for power and profit. ”

Liu Ximing was silent in his heart, he only knew it in this era that future generations had many misunderstandings about this time.

Some of the impressions that are fixed in our minds are actually far from the real history.
