Chapter 323: Pavilion Elder's Ambition
"Elder Ge."
Shi Yiwen straightened up, sat on the chair with a serious attitude rarely seen in his life, and presented his well-thought-out plan.
"Today's situation is on the verge of breaking out. Although there is Jiangling in the middle of the court painstaking management, struggling to maintain, but the situation of the Ming Dynasty is like a dangerous building, the tip of the waves, it seems that the Ming Dynasty is stable, but there is a disaster at any time. From the perspective of later life, once Gangneung steps down, there will be no one to control the situation in the world, and as the emperor gets older and older, when he is in power, it is the day when Gangneung hangs the crown. Once Jiangling resigns, if the reform cannot be implemented, then the financial resources of the Ming Dynasty must become increasingly tight, if there is nothing to do in ordinary times, it is fine, but if there is a famine, in case of a first-class people, there will definitely be Chen Sheng and Wu Guang instigated the uprising, at that time, the people are in trouble, the Tartars are threatened outside, and the country of my Ming Dynasty in the past two hundred years will be in danger. In the final analysis, all problems are financial problems, if the imperial court has sufficient money, it can naturally be used to help refugees and resist foreign troubles, so naturally there is no worry, but if the gentry of the world are in arrears of land taxes, at that time, how can the Ming Dynasty maintain. Although it is said that he has just returned to the Heavenly Dynasty not long ago, but looking around the world, the world is actually full of dangers, originally, in the next is still thinking about how to save the perilous, this attack in the next, it happens to be an opportunity, today can save my Ming people, only the elder of the pavilion alone. As long as the elder of the pavilion seizes the opportunity, he will definitely be able to rectify the real culprit behind the scenes, and at that time, he can take the opportunity to clean up Nanzhili and murder Qincha, which is like a great rebellion, and it will be able to raze the nine clans! ”
The sentence "Yi Jiu Clan" made Lu Tiaoyang look terrified, and while secretly admiring Shi Yiwen's deep understanding of the situation and his incisive analysis, his gaze also changed.
"Originally,"
Shi Yiwen changed to a calm tone and continued in an orderly manner.
"I have never done this thunderbolt in the next day, but now the situation in the Ming Dynasty is like this, and it is not allowed to be seriously discussed, so please ask the elder to take the society as the priority, and act decisively, so that the Ming country can be protected, and he will go to work in Jiangling one day, and the elder will be the first assistant. In this way, there is a virtuous monarch, and there is a capable and powerful pavilion elder, even if the Ming Dynasty is attacked by storms and storms, and the sky collapses and the earth cracks, it can also be concentric, and the government and the opposition work together to overcome the crisis together, and be as stable as a rock. In this way, the adult's contribution to the country must be a thousand years of history, and even today's means are just the loyalty of the elder to the country and have to do it! ”
The more Shi Yiwen spoke, the more high-spirited he became, and the more Lu Tiaoyang listened, the calmer he became. He looked at the young man in front of him and his eyes became more and more different, a young man who is extremely smart, for so many years, Lu Tiaoyang has seen too much, but such a sincere but far-sighted and calculating, scheming young man, it is the first time to see it, on the one hand, he is a pure heart, and on the other hand, he is scheming, this young man is indeed different from others.
But he is a young scholar after all, and he is still young in the world. But how does he know the situation in the world?
"Zhiyuan, do you know why the officials of Nanzhili can make waves in the DPRK, and no one dares to despise it?"
"Lots of people!"
"Not only that, the officials of the South Zhili are not only many, but also through the master and apprentice, classmates, the same year, the teacher, and the protégé have long been connected into an intertwined network, these people are not only the officials of the South Zhili, even if they are officials in the north, it is inevitable that they also have classmates, the same year, the teacher, and the protégé of the officials of the South Zhili, they seem to be officials, but in fact they are in charge of the country, if you want to attack them, how can they sit still and wait for death? What will they do then? If there is no perfect solution, this is not asking for trouble. Besides, with Gangneung's means, why is there still nothing to do with them, isn't it just a rat trap? Jiangling barely maintained, and they fought openly and secretly, but also forced to helpless, now if the old man uses thunderbolt methods, the victory or defeat is still unknown, but why do you and I need to get involved in this! Watching the situation change and respond to the changes is the best choice at the moment! ”
Speaking earnestly to Shi Yiwen, Lu Tiaoyang said in a serious tone:
"Zhiyuan, your idea is very good, but, now you and I are weak, isn't it too risky to act like this, with your age, twenty years later, you will definitely be able to enter the cabinet as a minister of the cabinet, with the emperor's trust, when the time comes, if you do this method again, and have twenty years to accumulate strength, wouldn't it have a better chance of winning?"
In the face of Lu Tiaoyang's persuasion, Shi Yiwen shook his head and said.
"Twenty years...... Too long! Daming can't drag on for a day! Besides, the situation in the world is changing rapidly, and I am not allowed to delay. Ge Lao, twenty years! Can you wait? ”
Looking at Lu Tiaoyang, who is over sixty years old, Shi Yiwen's words cannot but be heart-wrenching.
"Old man......"
Can't wait!
Lu Tiaoyang closed his eyes a little painfully, on the one hand, he knew the reality of the crisis in the Ming Dynasty, and on the other hand, he also knew that behind the seemingly calm waves, there was actually an undercurrent surging, and if he didn't do much, it might be a big mess.
After closing his eyes painfully and pondering for a long time, when Lu Tiaoyang opened his eyes again, he stared at Shi Yiwen and said.
"Zhiyuan, do you know, if you take a step out of the chess, this move may not only save the Ming Dynasty, but also may harm the Ming Dynasty, do you know that they will never sit still, willing to fish and meat, once they are overlooked, there are courtiers and vassal kings colluding, at that time internal and external conspiracies, coup d'état in the palace, at that time, you and I are sinners through the ages!"
This could not have been more straightforward, and his concern was expressed in one word.
"Coup d'état in the palace ......"
Originally, Shi Yiwen really didn't think that they would be so bold, but after thinking about it, Shi Yiwen thought of the difference between the Ming Dynasty - so many vassal princes, but they are all waiting to be the emperor, if a group of courtiers depose Wanli's throne on the grounds of the absurdity of the king, it is not impossible.
Coup!
It's a big risk. But......
"Actually, Ge Lao, sometimes, they won't sit still, but save us some effort, after all, fabricating accusations, that's better than them taking the initiative to send them to the door, in this case, they can lure the snake out of the hole right now, if they make a move."
Speaking of this, Shi Yiwen peeked at Lu Tiaoyang, and saw him sitting there, with his head down, as if he was thinking deeply.
"Then use thunderbolt means, in this way, after cutting the mess with a quick knife, the big tomorrow can be decided!"
"Huh?"
Raising his eyebrows, Lu Tiaoyang looked at Shi Yiwen and asked rhetorically.
"What do you mean by that?"
did not directly answer Lu Diao's question, and then Shi Yiwen wrote a few words on the table with tea instead of ink.
When he looked closely, Lu Tiaoyang's eyes widened suddenly, and then a bitter smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and a sadness welled up in his heart......
Finally, he looked at Shi Yiwen and asked rhetorically.
"Did you know that Jiangling also sent people to Nanjing."
"I know below."
"Then why did you persecute the old man?"
Lu Tiaoyang stared at Shi Yiwen and retorted.
"Because you are the second assistant, when the emperor is in charge of the other day, it is the day when Gangneung retires, and it is also the period when the elder of the cabinet takes over as the first assistant, if the elder can't use thunderbolts to deter Xiaoxiao, I am afraid that others will definitely take advantage of the opportunity of Gangneung's resignation to attack Gangneung and ask for the abolition of the reform, so that everything that Gangneung and the elder have worked hard to manage will be wasted! So ......"
"That's why you want the old man to make a name for killing, right?"
Lu Tiaoyang's tone seemed a little unhappy, maybe he was worried about state affairs, but he has always been extremely fair, even those who oppose reform agree with this, and now Shi Yiwen's requirements are obviously beyond his bottom line.
"So, you want the old man to make up charges and let people bite him, right?"
"Ge Lao, will you do this?"
In addition to the rhetorical question, Shi Yiwen said again.
"The reason why I believe in Ge Lao is because Ge Lao's reputation is known to the world, and people in the world will definitely believe in Ge Lao's fairness, and naturally I don't dare to expect Ge Lao to show favoritism, since I dare to let Ge Lao do this, there is also evidence!"
"Proof!"
Lu Tiaoyang looked at Shi Yiwen in surprise, and then wondered.
"What's your evidence?"
"Elder Ge, do you know who instructed the assassin to attempt the assassin?"
"Who's the one who instructed it?"
Smiling, Shi Yiwen snorted.
"Speaking of which, I know him well, when I first came to Nanjing, he searched my ship."
"You mean Li Zhen!"
Without the slightest hesitation, Lu Tiaoyang directly said Li Zhen's name, as for what Wei Guogong and what sincerity, in his opinion, it is impossible to do this kind of thing, first, it is unnecessary, and secondly, it is ...... They can't afford to take such a big risk, even if they are Chengchengbo, no matter how angry he is, he will not lose the future of Chengchengbo's family for a daughter.
Naturally, there is only one Li Zhen left.
"It's him!"
His brows furrowed, and then Lu Tiaoyang said softly as if he had figured out something.
"He's ...... Well, isn't it ......"
Looking up at Shi Yiwen, Lu Tiaoyang asked.
"Do you have proof?"
"The assassin was captured on the spot by my family's house slaves, and he can be interrogated at any time if he wants to."
"The assassins are still alive?"
Just when Lu Tiaoyang just wanted to ask, he only heard a report from someone outside the study.
"Master, someone sent you a letter just now."
Nurhachi came in and interrupted Shi Yiwen's words.
"yes, I see."
Standing up, Shi Yiwen said to Lu Tiaoyang.
"It doesn't matter if you don't see the assassin now, what matters is that sentence, to what extent is the elder preparing to uphold this justice, Li Zhen's hand, but who is behind the scenes, I think the elder knows better than me."
As he spoke, Shi Yiwen took the letter from Nurhachi's hand, and there was no signature on the envelope, but when he looked closely, when he looked at the handwriting, Shi Yiwen shook his head again and again.
"This, how can this be ......"
When he unfolded the letter, he glanced at it slightly, and hurriedly said to Lu Tiaoyang.
"Elder Ge, there are some things to say goodbye first......
With that, he left in a hurry......
