Chapter 629: Late Wind (5)

On October 14, the winter season, the wind has soaked in the cold, but because the sun is out and the sky is clear, it seems that it is not so cold.

"It's a good day." Tobe Shangshu Hanwen took a deep breath, which was a good sign. He lifted the corners of his robe and knelt solemnly in front of the main hall.

Behind him, Jiuqing Kedao followed with stubbornness.

Hangul took out the memora that had been prepared and began to read aloud. He is sixty-six this year, although he is old, but his voice is not weak at all, especially at this time, with the momentum of death, his voice is more and more high-pitched, and the words he spits out are like knives:

"It is clear that the master of the people distinguishes treachery, and the people and ministers are loyal. The situation is small and small, approaching the king's side, and the safety and chaos are at this level......

"The eunuchs Liu Jin, Zhang Yong, Qiu Ju, Gao Feng, Ma Yongcheng, Gu Dayong, Luo Xiang, Wei Bin, etc., are clever and hypocritical, but they know that they are bewitching the king for their own selfishness......

"Eavesdropping on the ancient eunuchs before the country, for the disaster is particularly fierce, the Han ten permanent servants, the change of Tang manna, its clear test. Now Liu Jin and other evils are already written, if they are not cured, they will be unscrupulous in the future, and they will suffer from the society......

"I hope that Your Majesty will work hard, cut off personal love, sue the two palaces, issue an edict to hundreds of officials, and punish the canon, so as to return to the changes of heaven and earth, vent the anger of gods and people, cut the steps of chaos, and protect the cause of the primate forever."

Every time he read a sentence, three young people behind him repeated it in unison in a loud voice.

When he got to the last sentence, his voice did not stop, and the hundreds of officials behind him had already responded in unison: "I hope that Your Majesty will work hard, cut off personal love, punish the canon, cut the level of chaos, and protect the cause of the primate forever." ”

The sound gathered into a torrent, soaring into the sky, echoing over the empty palace for a long time, the sound shook the sky, and shook people's heartstrings.

In front of the palace, both the guards and the inner servants all changed color, and the timid little fire even trembled a few times.

The three cabinet elders exchanged glances and were quite satisfied with the effect.

Now, he is just waiting for Wang Yue's side to take down Liu Jin and the other eight thieves as agreed.

Thinking that the emperor is young in the end, seeing that hundreds of officials are so powerful, and seeing Liu Jin and others captured, it is a foregone conclusion, and he will only push the boat down the river.

Their eyes were fixed on the hall, just waiting for Wang Yue's figure.

*

Under the corridor of the apse, listening to this accusation, Gao Feng's body, which was already a little rickety, shrank by two points.

He approached Zhang Yong beside him and lamented in a low voice: "Yande, you and I are both loyal and errands, but we have been affected by Lao Liu and them." ”

Zhang Yong replied vaguely, and scolded secretly in his heart.

Where is Lao Tzu the same as you, Gao Feng, you old boy is just obeying the orders of the Empress Dowager to take charge of the matter after the election, as if he has made a great contribution, phew! Behind his back, he is not like Liu Jinqiu gathering to take power and insert cronies, otherwise why would your nephew Gao Delin ask the outside Yushi to catch the pigtails!

Lao Tzu is really wronged, Lao Tzu's bandit is the fire of the real Ge'er, don't give credit to the waistband of his trousers, when will Lao Tzu invite pet by offering what kind of jackal, tiger and leopard plaything to the emperor!

His eyes were gloomy as he stared at Liu Jin and Qiu Ju, who were standing in front of him whispering, all of them caused trouble!

Although these two things reacted quickly, it was probably Dongchang who listened to the letter, so he hurriedly found the big guy to go to the emperor and cry. Without this crying, without Liu Jin's words, I would rush to this big scene of Jiuqing Fuque today, and I am afraid that one of the eight of them will be tall in his grandmother's grass next year.

Liu Jin, this old boy...... Zhang Yong muttered in his heart, he also grew up serving the little emperor, and he could also figure out a little bit of the emperor's thoughts, knowing that he was afraid that "how could the emperor's order get out of the palace wall" touched the emperor, otherwise he would not have immediately ordered Wang Yue, Fan Heng, and Xu Zhi to be arrested.

It's not good for this old guy to fall into the hands of Liu Jinqiu, but what about the eight of them? Zhang Yong still felt uncertain in his heart, and he didn't know what the little emperor would do in the end.

Although Liu Jin's sentence is at the bottom, today's huge scene has become a clear proof of that sentence. According to the emperor's temperament, he will only hate these ministers even more.

But in today's scene of a tsunami like this, can the little emperor really withstand the pressure and still act according to his disgust?

Zhang Yong rubbed his eyebrows, he has military merits, it is estimated that he ...... It won't really be beheaded, but even if he is sent to Nanjing, it is not a result that he can accept.

"Lao Tzu's military exploits in the water and in the fire......" He couldn't help but glared at Liu Jin and Qiu Ju in front of him again, and began to curse secretly in his heart.

Liu Jin in front of him does not have Zhang Yong's military merits, nor does he have Gao Feng's credit for choosing marriage, and he has no credit to boast about.

On the contrary, he is still the "first evil" of this group of people who want to punish them quickly.

Liu Jin's face was so gloomy that he could drip water.

Although Wang Yue's three old things have been taken down, and Jiao Fangjiao's words have indeed caused the emperor to be angry, but now this is a sparse performance, this is really fucking vicious......

Liu Jin gritted his back molars, not knowing what the emperor would think.

He was thinking of the gods and Buddhas in his heart, and he only begged the emperor not to change his hexagram, a pair of swollen eyes stared at the kissing beast on the spine of the temple, his lips moved, but he whispered to Qiu Ju on the side: "This matter is over, Han Wen, this old horseman...... Can't stay. ”

Although Qiu Ju's face beside him was also ugly, he was not so uneasy, he lowered his head, and the tips of his boots were pointed at the brick cracks, but the strength was not hidden, as if he wanted to pry.

Hearing Liu Jin's voice, Qiu Ju paused, clicked twice hard, glanced at Fang obliquely, and said disdainfully: "Do you still need to say it?" It's been checked. ”

His eyes flashed, and now it was the time for the inner carrier warehouse to collect gold and silver, he took a sip and said coldly: "Damn, even if there is no seam, you have to pry out the seam." ”

*

When the scholars outside the hall began to read the second "檄文", there was movement in the hall.

A shrill and tall voice came from within, "There is a purpose! There is a purpose! ”

The eight people under the corridor were shocked, unconsciously straightened their bodies, and stood solemnly with their hands down.

The sound was transmitted by the attendants along the road, and the inside and outside of the hall were silent.

All the officials were happy, holding their breath, ready to welcome their own victory.

I saw the eunuch Chen Kuan, the eunuch who passed the decree of the celebrant supervisor, strode out, stood on the steps with a straight face, looked around, and said loudly "There is a will", and shook the holy decree in his hand.

There is no fictional text of the four and six, and the will is unusually concise, more like an oracle, just one sentence: Liu Jin and the other eight people are loyal and commendable, and they don't ask questions.

The hundred officials were in an uproar, and Han Wen wanted to get up and run forward, but in the end, he was old, and he stumbled under his feet, but fortunately he was quickly supported by the officials behind him, but he didn't care about it at all, and shouted loudly: "Your Majesty!" Your Majesty thinks twice!! ”

Chen Kuan's face was expressionless, and as soon as the holy decree was received, he said loudly: "So that you adults can know that the emperor has decreed that Wang Yue, Fan Heng, and Xu Zhi are plotting against each other, and they will be captured and questioned in Dongchang." Liu Jin is temporarily in charge of the ceremonial supervisor, and Qiu Juquan knows the affairs of the East Factory. ”

The shouts of the hundred officials froze in their mouths, and the sun above their heads was not half a minute warm, and the north wind blew into the cracks of people's bones, and it was even cold.

Liu Jin is in charge of the ceremonial supervisor, and Qiu Ju is in charge of the East Factory. It's not just a matter of not asking!

There was astonishment, anger, and grief on the faces of the three pavilion elders, but Wang Yue was imprisoned, and Liu Jin took over the helm of the ceremonial supervisor, which was already impossible.

Chen Kuan had already shouted "retreat from the dynasty", but there was still a royal history who suddenly got up and argued, shouting, "The minister has a book!" ”

Suddenly, the sound of neat footsteps was heard, and two teams of brocade guards poured out on both sides of the main hall, and they did not step forward to arrest people, but they were lined up in front of the hall, standing solemnly.

There was no movement, no words, but his expression was as cold and hard as iron, and such a solemn momentum silenced the hundred officials.

Liu Jian stared coldly at the brocade guards for a long time, and suddenly stood up slowly, seeing that the brocade guards not far away suddenly tensed, he couldn't help but snort coldly, dusted off the corners of his robes, and said loudly: "Minister Liu Jian, old and sick invaded, begging bones for the rest of his life." ”

Xie Qian and Li Dongyang were stunned for a moment, and then they all got up and said the same words: "The old and the sick invade, and the bones are spent for the rest of their lives." ”

The three cabinet elders resigned at the same time, and the officials were shocked for a while.

However, before any official could react and shout, Chen Kuan had already taken another step forward and said in a loud voice: "It's already a retreat from the dynasty, if you adults have anything to do, let's hand over the fold." ”

All the brocade guards stepped forward in unison.

Liu Jian stared at Chen Kuan in front of him for a long time, until the latter avoided his gaze with a sigh on his face, Liu Jianfang retracted his gaze and said, "Okay, I will go to the book and beg for bones." ”

*

The eight people in the apse heard "don't ask", Qi Qi breathed a sigh of relief, or Gao Fengren was old and refined, and immediately knelt down and cried and shouted "Thank you Lord Longen" and "Long live my emperor", and the seven were busy and cried on their knees.

Then the second person, Ma Yongcheng, jumped up again, got up with a bone, and staggered to the door of the Dongnuan Pavilion of the Qianqing Palace while crying, saying that everyone would go over and kneel and wait for the master to come down and thank the emperor in person.

The other seven were like naughty children, busy following, describing themselves as embarrassed.

But who of the palace people around him dared to pick up this laugh! Such a huge Fu Que can't pull these big stalls off the horse, which shows the saints! In the future, I am afraid that the palace will be the world of these people.

Luo Xiang, Wei Bin and the others turned their brains faster, so they were faster, ready to pick a conspicuous place to kneel and pluck the leader.

Liu Jin fell behind, and dragged Zhang Yongye to slow down.

"According to the rules, the cabinet assistant ministers must submit a letter three or four times before they can be allowed." Liu Jin said in a low voice.

Zhang Yong was a little surprised, not because of Liu Jin's words. It is rare for the cabinet to take the initiative to resign, how can Liu Jin allow these people who want to kill him to repeatedly write and drag it out, in case the emperor is soft-hearted...... Hey, Liu Jin must be going to get rid of people quickly.

What surprised him was that Liu Jin had been muttering and discussing with Qiu Ju all the time, why didn't he continue to talk to Qiu Ju at this time, but came to find him.

He remained silent and waited for the rest of the story.

Sure enough, I heard Liu Jin say: "The night is long and I have many dreams." I have to ask the emperor to make a decision as soon as possible. ”

"Yande," Liu Jin called Zhang Yong's words, quite a bit of heart-to-heart, "Long live Lord wants to let Lord Wang Hua enter the cabinet, you and I know this, if Long Live Lord is not easy to say, we are slaves and maids, and we must always share one or two worries for our master." ”

Zhang Yong sighed twice, knowing that Liu Jin wanted to use his relationship with Wang Shouren to lobby Wang Hua to enter the cabinet and occupy the position of the cabinet.

"There is only one Lord Wang...... Zhang Yong pretended to be embarrassed, "The cabinet can't be just one old gentleman." Lao Liu, I'm afraid that I have to ask another adult to solve my urgent needs. ”

This step is really good, Liu Jin glanced at Zhang Yong approvingly, and knew that this kid knew each other!

At that moment, he said righteously: "Just as Yande said." I have also been in the celebrant for a while, and I have a little understanding outside, and the secretary of the ministry, Jiao Fangjiao, should also enter the cabinet in terms of qualifications, popularity, and political achievements. ”

Zhang Yongzheng said: "Exactly." Or Lao Liu, your eyes are poisonous, look at people accurately! Sure enough, Mr. Jiao is the most suitable. ”

The two glanced at each other, nodded silently, tacitly agreed, and then dispersed, one after the other went to the East Warm Pavilion of the Qianqing Palace, silently thinking about what kind of rhetoric they would say after going to see the emperor later.

*

The first battle of the Zhengde Dynasty ended in failure.

The next day, Liu Jian, Xie Qian, and Li Dongyang, the three elders, really wrote to resign, and another group of imperial historians wrote to impeach Liu Jin and others unrelentingly.

The courtiers continued to fight in their own way.

It's a pity that the little emperor doesn't eat this set.

In the past, there were important ministers such as Ma Wensheng and Liu Daxia who wrote to the emperor and raised their hands, and now the cabinet's loyalty is not a day or two, and there is Liu Jin and Zhang Yong's "suggestion", the little emperor continued to wave his pen, and the two of them were old - quasi-Liu Jian and Xie Qianzhishi.

Only Li Dongyang's excerpt was rejected.

There are different opinions in the court, and some people say that it is to the face of Li Dongyang's son-in-law who is the son of Yan Shenggong - Confucius's face is not big enough?

Some people also said that they heard that the eldest princess of Chun'an had entered the palace, but they were afraid that the eldest princess would intercede. Li Dongyang's wife is the sister of Chengguo, and the eldest princess of Chun'an is now a family with Chengguo's mansion, and she always has to help her relatives.

The party Li Dongyang was very embarrassed, and repeatedly wrote to resign, but was rejected by His Majesty.

Later, Liu Jian and Xie Qian went to visit Li's mansion, and the three cabinet elders discussed secretly for a long time behind closed doors, and Li Dongyang stopped writing and stayed in the cabinet.

In the past three or two days, the two cabinet elders and senior officials who died of illness have changed dramatically in an instant.

Zhang Sheng, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, was once again ill, and this time he was quickly approved. Then Wang Hua, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, was promoted to the Book of the Ministry of Rites, and was promoted to a scholar of the palace and entered the cabinet to serve.

At the same time, there are also Jiao Fang, the secretary of the ministry, and a scholar of the Yingdian University of Jinwu; Wang Wei, a servant of the Ministry of Officials, is a scholar of Jin Wenyuan Pavilion.

Li Dongyang, the former scholar of the Jinshen Temple, was promoted to a scholar of the Huagai Temple, and was the first assistant.

Yang Tinghe was promoted from the original Zhan Shifu Shao Zhan Shi to Zhan Shi, in charge of Zhan Shifu, and is still a bachelor of Hanlin Academy, and is in charge of the cabinet.

The decree was issued in the morning, and in the afternoon came the news that Zhang Yuanzhen, the servant of the ministry, had died of illness.

Zhang Yuanzhen has been "sick" since he failed to fight for Jiao Fang, unlike other elders who are not sick and are also called sick and sick, he was really sick later, but he never resigned until he ......

Hearing that the news of Jiao Fang and Wang Wei's entry into the cabinet reached Zhang's mansion, Zhang Yuanzhen vomited blood and said, "If you are not careful, you will lose all the plates", and passed away suddenly.

Of course, this is just a rumor in the market, because Zhang Yuanzhen refuses to retire, his impeachment has never been interrupted in the past few months, and no matter the court and the people have a good impression of him, it is not surprising that someone made up this set of words.

It's just that at this point, the three officials of the Ministry of Officials were empty.

The Ministry of Rites also went to Shangshu and was promoted to the waiter, leaving only the right waiter Liu Ji. Liu Ji was originally a young Zhan Shi of the Zhan Mansion and a bachelor of the Hanlin Academy, the emperor's daily lecturer, and one of the confidants and courtiers of the little emperor, so he was promoted to the secretary of the Ministry of Rites.

Then there is the household department, when the inner carrier warehouse collects gold and silver, the east factory detects that there is a solution to the household to the fake silver to the inner treasury, and at the same time as the matter is investigated, this crime also falls on the household department Shangshu Hanwen.

Everyone knows that this is afraid that Liu Jinqiu and his gang were deliberately framed, and many people wrote to cry out for Hangul.

It's just that the little emperor still demoted Hangul to one level of Zhishi, along with the derogatory derogatory and delisted names of those who spoke for Hangul.

The henchmen of the little emperor each occupied important positions in the cabinet and six ministries, and they knew that it was really a change, and they were silent for a while.

The curtain came to an end, and a new round of competition began inside and outside the court - this time there are many official positions, who doesn't want to plan more for themselves, for relatives and friends, and for their henchmen.

Including Liu Jian and Xie Qian, who are about to leave Beijing.

The two of them have been in the cabinet for many years, and they have many subordinates, so they always have to arrange one or two.

In particular, Xie Qian's son and son-in-law are all officials in the court......

*

The former cabinet old Xie moved to the house

Xie Qian entered the office as a champion, first the Hanlin Academy, then the Zhan Mansion, and then all the way to the Ministry of War and then entered the cabinet, which can be regarded as a smooth career, so the Xie Mansion has not gone through major twists and turns.

Although Xie Qianzhishi made the Xie Mansion shake up and down this time, and the servants were also panicked, on the whole, it was still stable. Xie Qian was about to return to his hometown of Shaoxing Mansion, and the whole house began to pack up.

Xie Qian had a total of six sons, of which Xie Pi was succeeded to his eldest brother who died early, and Xie Qian was succeeded to his third brother Xie Di, who had no heirs. There are two sons who are officials outside, and now in Beijing are the eldest son Xie Zheng and the third son Xie Dou.

This time, Xie Zheng, a member of the Ministry of Rites and Ceremonies, stayed in Beijing, but it was Xie Dou, deputy of the left temple of Dali Temple, who resigned from his official position and went south with his father.

"Uncle didn't say ......" In the secret room, Xie Pi looked at his biological father Xie Qian, opened his mouth, and stopped talking.

Although the deputy official position of Dali Temple is the sixth grade, it is not as good as the eldest brother's member of the fifth grade, but a member of the Ministry of Rites, which is no different from idleness, is not as good as being in Dali Temple.

I don't know how my biological father arranged it, and my brother-in-law's side......

Xie Qian waved his hand and said: "Your eldest brother is in the Ministry of Rites, and now that Wang Hua has entered the cabinet, those people dare not put their hands into the Ministry of Rites." Dali Temple is different......"

He sighed and said, "If there was no Hangul matter, I wouldn't have had to make such a plan with them, but now, the thieves are rampant, I'm afraid that your third uncle will also be implicated." ”

Xie Pi also sighed, the third uncle Xie Di is now in the Military Selection Department of the Ministry of War, he is a fat shortage, I don't know how many people are staring at such a position, and now Xie Qianzhishi, that is, Liu Jin's group of thieves will not retaliate, and others can do everything possible to take it.

Just like the guilt of Hangul, there is no excuse for the crime that you want to add.

"Then brother-in-law, you don't have to be in such a hurry, right?" Xie Pi said again.

This is talking about Shen Li's official position.

However, on the day of Fuque's failure, Xie Qian heard that Wang Yue was arrested, and he knew that it was bad.

Wang Yue conspired with him to take down Liu Jin, and if Liu Jin knew about it, he would definitely take revenge on him.

On that day, Liu Jian's resignation was not completely negative, nor was it a threat, but more of a frustration after being angry and sad. But he Xie Qian followed up to ask for his resignation, but it was not without the intention of using the three pavilion elders to intimidate the little emperor.

Unexpectedly, the little emperor's wings were stiff, and this trick didn't work.

As soon as the resignation was approved, Xie Qian immediately began to make preparations for Beijing, and he thought about the official positions of his brother, son, and son-in-law, and made the most careful arrangements.

It's not that he hasn't planned a route for his son-in-law before, the Zhan Mansion, the Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of Households, and even the Criminal Department have all considered it, and he has also talked to Xie Pi about this issue.

But now, he needs to use the last of his connections to transfer his son-in-law out of Beijing and release him to a place.

Therefore, Xie Pi has this question.

"There is Yang Tinghe in Zhan Mansion now, isn't that the Shen family's in-laws? The Ministry of Rites is blessed by Wang Hua, and in the end, the eldest brother (Xie Zheng) is also in the Ministry of Rites, and they also have a ...... to take care of," Xie Pi said, "Even if you can't move to the Zhan Mansion or the Ministry of Rites, what's the harm in the Hanlin Academy." We are in the Hanlin Academy, and we are divided into classes and lectures, so they will not be rampant enough to take the Hanlin Academy! ”

Xie Qian shook his head, looked at the best of the sons, and sighed secretly that he was still young after all, and he had to sharpen himself.

It was because of Yang Tinghe and Wang Hua that Shen Li could not be put on their side.

Once you let it go, you can't get it back.

A son-in-law is a son-in-law, not a son.

"Let him go out of Shandong is also to protect him." Xie Qian finally didn't give Xie Pi a real answer, but said, "Now that he is the only one in our family who has the highest official position, how can Liu Jin let it go." Especially in the Hanlin Academy, his status as a champion is still quite appealing, isn't Liu Jin afraid that he will launch everyone to write impeachment from time to time? ”

"That'...... When I went to Nanjing, Nanjing Guozi supervised the sacrificial wine, just like their Shen family Shen Zhou did back then. Xie Pi said again.

The Xie family and the Shen family actually have a deep relationship, Xie Qian and Shen Cang, Xie Di and Shen Ying are the same year, and Xie Pi studied in Nancheng Academy before entering the country's son's prison, worshipping under the old lady Tian, and is the younger brother of the third wife of the Shen family, but because of the relationship between his father and his brother-in-law Shen Li, it is not good to have a relationship with the third master, so he can only recognize himself as a son and nephew.

Xie Pi also knew a lot about the Shen family, and before Shen Cang's death, he sought the shortage of sacrificial wine for Shen Zhou in Nanjing, and also used the relationship of the Xie family.

Xie Qian just shook his head and said, "Just because there is Shen Zhou's matter in front of you, it's not good for your brother-in-law to go again." And Nanjing Guozijian is not vacant, and it is not easy to operate. ”

Xie Pi disagreed, and said: "Now that the court has gone to the many officials, the imperial court must transfer people from Nanjing, and it is not difficult to ask Nanjing to move the two vacancies." Moreover, Shen Zhou's incident has a bad reputation, but his brother-in-law is a brother-in-law, and he is not a person like Shen Zhou, his brother-in-law is upright, and it will take a year and a half, and the rumors will be gone......"

Xie Qian waved his hand and said, "Where is it as easy as you say." And the situation is urgent, and we can't help but arrange it slowly. ”

Xie Pi still has to say more, Xie Qian has already said: "You also know that the Shen family is now running a Shandong ......"

Xie Pi was a scholar in the end, and he was born in a scholarly family, so he couldn't help but show disdain, and said: "It's just a business." The brother-in-law is going to be a Shangguan, so he has to protect them, in addition to causing trouble to his brother-in-law, they can also help his brother-in-law with something! Uncle is paving the way for the Shen family. ”

How could it be possible to pave the way for the Shen family?! Xie Qian couldn't help laughing, but said in his mouth: "It's not a trivial matter if this businessman can connect Liaodong, the military department, and the emperor." ”

As he spoke, he smiled again, and said: "The Shen family is now running Shandong together with the Lu family, and the Lu family has a branch, and someone presides over it, but the Shen family does not." Your brother-in-law sent the political envoy of Shandong to participate in politics, and he is also a local governor, and he can manage this part, so the Shen family and the Lu family naturally look to your brother-in-law. Now it seems that it is your brother-in-law who blesses them, and in the future, Shandong may not be able to become his foundation. ”

When Xie Pi heard this, the disdain on his face gradually faded, and he nodded thoughtfully.

After a while, he took another deep breath and said, "...... It's just that a rural place like Shandong is not richer than Jiangnan, how can my sister get used to it? And my sister's legs and feet are not very good, so she should not travel far. When the nephews were also studying, where could Shandong compare to the academy in Beijing......"

Xie Qian frowned and said sharply: "Confused, could it be that Siniang said something to you again?" ”

Xie Pi was taken aback, and hurriedly said, "No, never." It was the nephew who thought of it himself......" He still wanted to say something, but he was glared at by his biological father's stern eyes, and he swallowed the words back.

Xie Qian snorted and said, "That's your aunt's mistake." Don't get involved in these inner house affairs, but think more about big things. ”

He paused and said solemnly: "Have you written down the people I told you about yesterday?" ”

*

Renshoufang, Shen Mansion

Shen Cang's second anniversary ceremony has been completed, but on October 22, just in time for the end of the turmoil in the DPRK and China, relatives are more or less involved, but I am afraid that there will be fewer people in the old party who come to pay tribute, and some of the corresponding arrangements will also be reduced.

"At times like these, it's worse to be loud." Xu said.

Shen Rui nodded, originally the Shen family was not the one who was good-looking. In today's situation, low-key is a blessing.

Wang Hua's entry into the cabinet was something that Shen Rui could not have imagined, according to the memory of his previous life, this was when Wang Hua's father and son were persecuted by Liu Jin, and Wang Hua did not enter the cabinet in his life, but now it is the teacher Wang Shouren who sits firmly in Nanjing, and the master Wang Hua is even more into the cabinet in one fell swoop......

History has quietly changed!

At the beginning, Shen Rui was not without worries about the so-called butterfly effect, but as he gradually integrated into his current life, how could he be willing to watch that tragic history repeat itself in front of him!

Do what you should do, the husband was born between heaven and earth, and he went straight on the bento road!

Shen Rui secretly made up his mind.

This time Wang Hua entered the cabinet, Shen Rui was happy from the bottom of his heart, and he also had more confidence in what he would do in the future.

Over there, Yang Tinghe was in charge of Zhan Shifu, and he was in charge of the cabinet in charge of the edict, which was almost the same as entering the cabinet, and it could be regarded as having great power, and Yu Shenrui, the son-in-law, naturally had a lot of benefits.

"It's a pity that you're not in the company now." When talking to Shen Rui about court affairs, Shen Ying couldn't help but say.

In fact, Shen Ying herself is quite sorry, if it weren't for filial piety, Shen Ying, who was originally the left senator of the Wupin Tong Political Division, was only afraid that she would be able to go further at this time.

Shen Ying was originally an old man in the East Palace, and at this time, it was when the little emperor was promoting his own people, and he and Wang Shouren were both second-class jinshi in the twelfth year of Hongzhi, and their personal relationship was also good, and they were also Wang Huazi's nephews, plus Yang Tinghe's care, it was not a problem to jump to the next level and two levels.

Now, I have to sigh.

There is still more than a year of filial piety, just look at the changes in this year, no one can say what the next year will be like.

Shen Ying only kept contacting old friends and maintaining relationships so that he could use them when he recovered.

These days, Shen Ying and Shen Rui have chatted more deeply, Shen Rui was not good at writing about his relationship with Brother Shou in his letters, but now he also confessed it in front of Shen Ying.

Shen Ying had seen the former crown prince and the current new emperor of Weifu in Yang Tinghe's mansion regularly in Shen Rui and Yang Tianwen's mansion, and knew the close relationship between the emperor and Yang Tinghe, so it was not surprising to hear Shen Rui say that he had several contacts with Brother Shou.

Since Shen Rui talked to Shen Ying, many things were not hidden, and he also happened to discuss things with Shen Ying.

Probably because of her position in the General Administration, Shen Ying is much more sleek than Shen Li, who stayed in the Hanlin Academy, and she has a more thorough understanding of many personnel relations between the DPRK and China.

Especially in this turmoil, because of Xie Ge Lao, Shen Li was also involved, and he couldn't help but lose his calm. Shen Rui mainly consulted with Shen Ying.

Before the book, Shen Rui and Shen Ying talked about Liu Zhong's advice, and Shen Ying did not go out for the time being, and persuaded Shen Li with Shen Rui.

However, as Shen Rui expected, it was impossible for Shen Li not to go to the book, and there was naturally one Shen Li among the hundred officials in Fuque.

Now, Xie Ge is old and Shen Li is inevitably implicated.

"However, the sixth brother is surnamed Shen in the end, not Xie." Speaking of Shen Lilai, Shen Ying said to Shen Rui, "The relationship between the sixth brother and the Wang family is also very close, and Lord Wang will not let people touch him." ”

Although Shen Rui couldn't erase his worries in his heart, he also nodded, he went to greet Wang Hua, Yang Tinghe, and even Zhang Yong in the palace.

"Even if that person wants to act, the emperor will not agree when he sees that he is your brother." Yang Tinghe said to Shen Rui like this. is more confident in the relationship between the little emperor and Shen Rui than Shen Rui.

Yang Tinghe also said that at this time, it is not to hide from things, but to take advantage of the suitable shortage to let Shen Li move the place, such as if he is virtuous and does not avoid relatives, he will move to the Zhan Shifu, it is not difficult to adjust the left and right concubines at all, and it is not impossible to do a good job.

This position itself is already excellent, and with Yang Tinghe here, Liu Jin doesn't dare to do anything.

Shen Rui also discussed with Shen Ying about the various situations that might arise, as well as their various responses, and also agreed that being able to go to Zhan Shifu was the best way out.

But he never thought that Shen Li came over and said that Xie Qian had an errand with him to be released, and the political envoy of Shandong was on the right side of the council.

Shen Rui and Shen Ying both exclaimed: "Why do you want to release it?" ”

Shen Ying frowned greatly and said: "At this time, the position in Jingzhong is not unsitting, and I am afraid that I will miss the opportunity to release it, so I don't hold a grudge." Sixth brother will talk to Master Xie again? ”

The impact of this Fu Que on Shen Li was also quite large, and at this time, he was also a little excited, so he only shook his head and said, "Since you have already planned here, you will go." Jingzhong ...... Alas, there are many rights and wrongs. My third uncle has already resigned...... and said, "It's also very good to go to Shandong, I think, the clan is also going to Shandong, with me, it's always cheap." ”

Shen Yingxin said that Xie Dou was in Dali Temple, how could it be the same as Hanlin Academy, but it was not easy to say it, because he persuaded two more sentences, and saw that Shen Li had already admitted that he was going to Shandong, and he was quite helpless.

Because he asked Xie Qian carefully what he said, Shen Li did not doubt him, so he also answered seriously.

The three of them talked about Shandong affairs for half an hour, because Shen Li came directly to Shen Rui when he came out of Xie Mansion, and the family didn't know the news of the release, so they stayed soon, and they wanted to go home to make arrangements.

After sending him away and turning back to the outer study, Shen Ying lowered her face, pondered for a moment, and said to Shen Rui: "Xie family, I'm afraid that you can't conspire." ”

Shen Ruiyuan didn't think that the Xie family was a fellow traveler, so he didn't think so, and said with a smile: "Brother Ying, when did the Xie family seek to work with us." ”

Shen Ying shook her head and said, "No." Do you think, why did Boss Xie let Sixth Brother Li out? ”

Shen Rui was stunned for a moment, thought twice, and frowned: "Although this kind of response is inevitably weaker, but at this time, it is also a matter of preservation." ”

He remembered that in his previous life, Liu Jin was in prison to rectify many people in Liu Jian's party and Xie Qian's party, which shows Liu Jin's hatred. Xie Qian must have known about it.

However, it does ...... Except for Xie Qian's third son, no one else has ever left Beijing, so it makes no sense that only Shen Li, the son-in-law, can only rely on leaving Beijing to survive.

Shen Ying said: "Although Old Master Xie has left the court, what about all the people under him?" He paused, because he had talked about everything with Shen Rui recently, he didn't care about it at this time, and said bluntly: "The sons of the Xie family are mediocre, and only Xie Pi is brilliant, but Xie Pi is just a small editor now." You say, if Boss Xie leaves Beijing, who will be the leader of his subordinates? ”

Shen Ruixin said, I'm afraid that the tree will fall and scatter, where will anyone be the leader! However, if there is really a hardcore Xie Dang, "...... The Xie family is directly related, and only the sixth brother has the highest official position. He said, and also understood what Shen Ying meant.

"Xie Qian, in order to leave his connections to his son, thus squeezing out his son-in-law from Beijing?" Shen Rui's tone was full of incredulity, "But, Brother Ying, how can Xie Pi's current position support the Xie Party?" Shouldn't he use Brother Li to survive this transitional period? If you don't pay attention to the sixth brother and can't keep it even, the Xie Party will be transferred to others in the party, and you may not be surnamed Xie for a year and a half. ”

Shen Ying said coldly: "I'm afraid that he will feel that if he is transferred to the hands of Sixth Brother Li, this Xie Dang will no longer be surnamed Xie." Don't forget, we were still looking for a position for Sixth Brother Li before. I'm afraid that Boss Xie also knows it, and if he gives it to Sixth Brother Li, Xie Dang is afraid that he will be merged into the old party of Wang Ge (Wang Hua) or Yang Zhanshi's party (Yang Tinghe). ”

Shen Rui was silent, and sighed again, and it was true.

Shen Ying's eyes flashed and said: "Outside Shandong, with the Shen family's business in Shandong, the sixth brother Li has gone, and he will not be the foundation of the Xie family in Shandong." ”

Shen Rui didn't think about it here, and frowned for a moment before he said, "If the Xie family really thinks so, this calculation will inevitably be too loud." How could Sixth Brother Li support the Xie family with the Shen family! My Shen family will not do that thing to marry others! ”

Shen Rui attaches great importance to Shandong and Liaodong, and if he wants to make great achievements, he will never allow the Xie family to get involved.

In fact, Shen Li's past was also very beneficial to the Shen family in Shandong, with Shen Li's presence and local high-ranking officials, the Shen family must be more willing to go to Shandong to do things, and the local people in Shandong will also sell face, and things will be easier to promote.

Shen Ying naturally thought of this, and said with a smile: "There are pros and cons, it just depends on how we turn the disadvantages into advantages." In the end, Brother Li is not that kind of person. ”

Shen Rui said: "Exactly, Sixth Brother Li is grateful for Xie Jiaen, but he will not take the Shen family to repay Xie Jiaen." ”

What's more, Shen Li's two families are out of harmony, and it is still unknown how much weight the Xie family has left in Shen Li's heart.

If the Xie family really wants to use the foundation laid by the Shen family as a stepping stone, hmph, then they will have to fall hard.

Shen Ying didn't know about the family affairs of Shen Li's husband and wife, thought about it for a while, and said: "After the auspicious ceremony, I will also go with the clansmen in Shandong." ”

Shen Ying was able to preside over the arrangement, Shen Rui was greatly relieved, and hurriedly said, "Then it's hard Brother Ying." ”

Shen Ying waved his hand and said: "The things in the clan should have been, what kind of hard work." ”

Then he sighed again: "Sixth Brother Li went to Shandong, and only Uncle Runsan, a middle scholar, and Brother Jin were left in the court. ”

Although there are many high-ranking officials in the Shen family's in-laws, the Shen family itself has lost the pillar of officialdom.

"This time, Brother Jin'er's side, Xu can also move." Shen Ying knocked on a few cases. I think that the Shouning Marquis Mansion will not ignore this son-in-law.

But then again, Shen Jin is the son-in-law of Shou Ninghou, and the Shen family is ...... Especially in the second room, it is far away.

Shen Ying turned her head to look at Shen Rui, finally sighed, and said, "Brother Rui, it's good to review your homework, and you should win the championship in one fell swoop at the end of tomorrow." ”

Hour Yongfang, auspicious brocade village

Although the name auspicious brocade is cheesy, it does not affect the business of this silk village, on the contrary, because of this name to please the memory, the shop has a lot of business.

Of course, business is good, mainly because this store is well stocked. The rich and noble people in the upper circles of the capital are well known, and the good goods of the general quality of tribute can only be bought here.

Even the top people know that this shop is the property of the new Dongchang Governor Qiu Juqiu's father-in-law. There is a lot of money to please naturally, and this silk Zhuangzi is even more wealthy.

This auspicious brocade village is like the surrounding pavement, but also the pattern of the front store and the back yard, the front is a three-story storefront, the back of the east and west compartments are warehouses, and the main house has a two-story building.

This small building is the place where Aunt Zhen, who is in charge of all the properties under the name of Gonggong Qiu, is the daily director.

Because Aunt Zhen is able to handle things and is deeply favored by Grandpa Qiu, some of Grandpa Qiu's private reports will also be sent to Aunt Zhen, and she will first deal with and classify them, and then report them to Grandpa Qiu.

However, Aunt Zhen has taken over this matter for a short time, and some old people who have followed Father-in-law Qiu for many years are inevitably a little dissatisfied with her.

“…… This news should have entered Beijing in the next two days, although it is an insignificant trivial matter, but aunt, you are holding it like this, I'm afraid it's not appropriate, right? If you let the adults misunderstand......" A dark-faced man in cloth stood in front of Aunt Zhen, and his words seemed to be tactful, but his tone was really unkind.

Aunt Zhen stared at him expressionlessly, and said coldly: "Since the adults handed over this line to me, they naturally believe me." Do you believe me? ”

Although the man said "don't dare", he looked arrogant, smiled, showed a mouthful of white teeth, and only said: "If my aunt and grandmother don't give an explanation, the little ones are not easy to do." If you delay your aunt's business......"

Aunt Zhen stared at him for a long time, and he still had this posture of "refusing to obey his fate if he doesn't tell the truth".

Aunt Zhen pondered for a moment, and Fang slowly spoke, "You also know that there are a lot of vacancies in the court recently. The Zhang family must find a good place for their son-in-law. ”

The man replied from his nose with a look of "That's nature, what you say is nonsense".

Aunt Zhen said: "Let the news enter Beijing at this time, the Zhang family will naturally not act again, isn't it a pity?" Why don't you wait a little longer, when the Zhang family's money is also spent, and the position is settled, when that person is full of ambition and ready to be promoted, well, let the news be sent over......"

A smile suddenly bloomed on her originally cold face, although it was very shallow and faint, but it suddenly increased its gorgeousness.

The man on the opposite side was already stunned.

Not for the beautiful woman in front of you, but for ......

"The mouth of the green bamboo snake, the needle behind the tail of the wasp, neither of them is poisonous, and the most poisonous woman's heart." The man muttered silently in his heart, strange that Lord Dao could hand over these threads to her.

Aunt Zhen's eyes fluttered, and when she saw that the man had bowed down to receive the order, Fang smiled and nodded, and said, "When will the news enter Beijing, I will inform you." You should also be nimble in your hands and feet, so as not to make mistakes. ”

The man answered.

Aunt Zhen stood up, paced to the window, stared at the lively scene on the street not far away, listened to the shouts of the merchants in the back alley, felt the fireworks in this world, and smiled softly again.

If you don't get it, you lose it.

If you obviously grasp it in your hand, but you just watch it lose it, then it is called piercing and painful.

How beautiful she was when she was married, and how embarrassed she was when she was dismissed.

How many people envy and praise when they get married, and how many people ridicule and ridicule after being dismissed.

How much longing there is when you are married, and how desperate you are after being withdrawn.

She rubbed her neck, and there was a scar there, a bruise from the hanging white silk, and her mother bought a good ointment with her daughter, so that the scar was removed.

But the wound in the heart has never healed.

She muttered to herself, "Now, let you taste it too." ”
