Chapter 2 Alone

Chapter 2 The failure to seize the Tongda Carriage and Horse Shop by a single force was unsuccessful, how could Feng Bao not hate it in his heart? Not only that, but there is still a little bit of fear in my heart.

Shen Chongming is not very old, but his actions are much more powerful than the old fox who won the reputation of officialdom, there is such an enemy who lives safely in the world, no matter who he rests on, it is impossible to sleep peacefully.

With such a thought in his heart, it strengthened Feng Bao's idea of getting rid of Shen Chongming in his heart. It's just that he doesn't have any handle on Shen Chongming at hand, and although it is not a problem to suppress Shen Chongming, it is a little difficult to eliminate him from above.

Therefore, Feng Bao was eager to know Shen Chongming's every move, and he was always thinking about how to find any flaws in Shen Chongming's behavior, and then everyone used to create some rumors to fabricate charges against him.

Looking at this secret protection at this moment, the corners of Feng Bao's mouth twitched, and a few treacherous smiles appeared on his face. This can be used a little.

"Someone come, hurry up and go to the Metropolitan Procuratorate to invite your father-in-law's Qingyang, and say that your father-in-law has something important to discuss with him." With an idea in his heart, Feng Bao immediately ordered the servant to go to the Metropolitan Procuratorate to invite Song Qingyang to come. Zhu Yiluan can be regarded as his think tank, no matter how big or small, Feng Bao likes to nag with him, even if he only listens and doesn't say it, just nodding.

The master had a summons, and Song Qingyang, who was a lackey, immediately put down the affairs at hand and rushed to Feng Bao's private residence. "My father-in-law is in a hurry, but what do you have to tell your subordinates?" Song Qingyang Shili asked.

"Qingyang, sit down and take a look at this." Feng Bao smiled all over his face, and casually handed the secret security he had just received to Song Qingyang, and then looked at Song Qingyang expectantly, waiting for him to express the same opinion as himself. If Qing Yang also thinks the same as himself, then this matter can be operated, and he will definitely make a big fuss about Shen Chongming!

Looking at Feng Bao's eager look, Song Qingyang pondered while checking the content of the letter, with such an expression, his father-in-law must have some plan in his heart, and he must have asked himself to analyze the pros and cons of the plan for him this time.

slipped down again, Feng Bao's heart was thinking Song Qingyang also had a little calculation in his heart, and said according to his heart: "Father-in-law, Shen Chongming is in the position of the prince of the country, and it is really a little inappropriate to spend so much money on construction. Moreover, today's saint's daily life is also diligent and thrifty and simple, Shen Chongming's approach is to say that it is against the emperor to put it seriously! ”

These words were said to have reached Feng Bao's heart, and he immediately nodded with joy on his face: "Qingyang, what you said is too right. Our family also thinks that Shen Chongming's actions are a negative result of the emperor's trust in him, you say, can we do something about this matter? ”

"What my father-in-law said is that this Shen Chongming is still a person trusted by the emperor, and I am afraid that it will have no effect if we mess with this matter in the court, if we publicize this matter in Shilin, we only need to make Shen Chongming's reputation stink, and our goal will be achieved." Song Qingyang has the face of a conspirator, and after a few years of downfall, he has already made his harmful skills perfect!

Feng Bao nodded his head, gave a thumbs up and said: "This method is good, as long as a person like Shen Chongming who has entered the imperial examination becomes infamous, this life will be over." Let's do what you think and do whatever it takes to make his reputation stink! ”

"Yes, my father-in-law can rest assured that his subordinates will definitely handle this matter properly!" Song Qingyang sneered, now that he is in power, he will definitely return the insults he has received in the past few years to Shen Chongming!

In Nanjing City, the night was quiet, and Shen Chongming, who was supposed to be sleeping in the post station, appeared in Jinyiwei's yamen in Nanjing at this time. Chen Xiao, the new commander of the Jinyi Guard, sat under Shen Chongming's hand, and told Shen Chongming about the major events that had happened in the world in the past few days.

If you want to ask why Shen Chongming is here, you have to say that it is commonplace. Huguang put down the rebellion, this star-picking saint who has been free in the rivers and lakes for many years can be regarded as finding his final destination, and Shen Chongming's trust and reuse make this Jianghu Langzi, who is not good at expressing his inner feelings, can only express his feelings with actions.

Since Shen Chongming's promotion to the rank of Guogong seemed to admit defeat, he began to lay out. First, it is used to protect itself, after all, since the founding of Taizu, the party struggle of this dynasty is life and death, but those who fall behind and are driven out of the court, few have a good end. Therefore, you can't think that Zhang Juzheng and Feng Bao will let themselves go, how can they do it without making some arrangements?

Second, it is to wait for the opportunity to fight back to the court. If one day you are tired of that busy life, you will resign and return to your hometown to enjoy Qingfu, instead of being forced to defeat by others!

It was only at this time that Shen Chongming remembered Gao Gong's repeated instructions to him: if you want to be invincible in the court, you don't rely on building countless merits alone, but always thinking about cultivating your own power, not to use power for personal gain to eliminate dissidents, but to make others invulnerable and not threaten yourself at any time.

For Gao Gong's advice, Shen Chongming was a little disgusted at the beginning, and he always thought that this was the old man's rotten thoughts, and when he became famous all over the world, who could defeat him?

It's a pity that today's encounter has completely confirmed that Gao Gong's words were correct, and after Shen Chongming summed up the matter this time, he came to the conclusion that he was alone. If half of the people in the court are standing behind them, even if Zhang Juzheng and Feng Bao fabricate evidence to frame themselves, they can also lead the ministers under their command to fight back, although they will not let them suffer the consequences, but they can also fight to a draw with them.

Shen Chongming counted with his fingers several times, and the people around him were only a few brothers who were like-minded, and he didn't even know the names of many ministers in important positions.

Now Shen Chongming began to arrange his own people, but found that there was no one available in his hands at all, and he could only temporarily arrange Sikong Wang, whose identity was not yet known to the outside world, into Jinyiwei. As for the rest, it can only be done slowly and step by step.

With Sikongwang, Shen Chongming will no longer only pass through a gate when entering and exiting the post station, a tunnel leads directly to the bedroom under the bed, and every time he goes out late at night, he is unaware!

"My lord, according to the news from Lord Liu in the capital, although Gao Ge Lao is now temporarily in the position of the first assistant, his power is not as good as before, although he is not completely overtaken by Zhang Juzheng, but unfortunately the words he said have little weight now. As for the emperor......" Chen Xiao paused, and then couldn't help but sigh.

Shen Chongming raised his eyebrows and wondered, "What's wrong with the emperor, why do you have such an expression?" ”

Chen Xiao smiled, and could only answer truthfully: "There are three thousand beauties in the harem, and our son of heaven is also an amorous seed." Since he ascended the throne, I think you must know in your heart that he rarely pays attention to the affairs of the court, and the daily morning court is just an errand to deal with. ”

Shen Chongming nodded, Chen Xiao was telling the truth. But what I admire most about Emperor Longqing is this, since ancient times, the most bad thing is that he doesn't know anything and commands blindly. Although I don't know what the Son of Heaven thinks in his heart today, but he has delegated all the power of the court, and it can be regarded as truly ruling by inaction, and now the Ming Dynasty is prosperous and strong, although he has contributed a lot, but he also relies on the environment of the dynasty.

"Since your lordship quelled Zhu Yiluan's rebellion in Huguang, the emperor can be regarded as worry-free. According to the gossip in the palace, the emperor was addicted to sexual affairs during these days, and there was an incident of more than ten women in one night. Speaking of this, Chen Xiao's voice couldn't help but lower. This kind of thing is something that even a bystander is ashamed to mention.

Hearing this, Shen Chongming was dumbfounded, and asked in surprise: "More than ten women are fortunate in one night, has the emperor's small body endured?" ”

"Poof-" Brother Erdan, who was originally listening to the conversation between the two of them with relish, couldn't help but squirt out, and only his own adults could ask about it, and the others just thought about it at most.

Chen Xiao's face rose, and he said embarrassedly: "This humble position is not clear, but I heard that the emperor's body is quite tough, and I heard that several imperial doctors in the Tai Hospital have developed a lot of great medicines for him in recent years, I am afraid that with these things, the emperor can still afford it." ”

"Nonsense, it's a three-point poison, and this kind of medicine can't be eaten indiscriminately." Shen Chongming said in a hurry, although he had thought about it ten times a night, it was just a thought, no one dared to try, if one didn't do it well, he would hang up!

Seeing that Shen Chongming was angry, Brother Erdan's laughter was suddenly stifled, and Chen Xiao also lowered his head and didn't dare to say more.

After being silent for a long time, Shen Chongming frowned and asked, "Hasn't you persuaded the emperor in this matter?" Such a toss is the damage to his own body. ”

Chen Xiao shook his head, "Today, the elder Gao Ge has been angry because of your affairs, and he hasn't been to the court for a while, and his old man is not here, who dares to persuade the emperor." ”

Shen Chongming was also helpless for a while, in the final analysis, it was everyone's selfishness. Nowadays, most of the people in the court are good news but not bad news, and few dare to offend the emperor's brows to admonish this matter, but it is far inferior to those hard-boned and strong-tempered old men who were in power in the court at the beginning.

"Isn't there still Zhang Juzheng, now the emperor trusts him, and he is delicate, there will definitely be laws and regulations to persuade the emperor." Shen Chongming looked up at Chen Xiao and asked.

Speaking of Zhang Juzheng, Chen Xiao's face couldn't help but change.
