Chapter 974: Recommending a Person of Virtue and Ability to His Majesty (Second Update)
Chapter 974
After thinking about it for a long time, he still couldn't find a suitable candidate, so Zhu Guangting couldn't help but stomp his feet and complain. "Actually, the most suitable candidate is to stand up, but it's a pity that he was also implicated by Wang Wushan's bastard......"
"Huh......" Hearing Zhu Guangting's complaint, Liu Zhi frowned slightly, and couldn't help but let out a light sigh with his eyes.
"What, what good plan did Brother Fei come up with?" Seeing Liu Zhi's appearance, Zhu Guangting hurriedly asked.
"We only considered the people in the old party who were familiar with us, but we forgot that there were still a group of people in the old party...... Liu Zhi raised his head and said to Zhu Guangting.
Zhu Guangting was stunned, and then he understood what Liu Zhi said, and immediately his head shook faster than a splashing drum. "No, no, by all means, we finally excluded the Shu Party, and now how can we go back on our word and let them return to the circle of power."
"These people in the Zishu Party, one or two think very highly of themselves, just like that Su Dongpo, when they encounter the benefits of the party, it seems that they are the only ones who are worried about the country and the people." Zhu Guangting said with a painful expression.
"But right now, the people around us are in critical positions, are you just watching this position be handed over to the new party?" When Liu Zhi saw Zhu Guangting's appearance, he couldn't help but sigh and spread out his hands and asked.
At this moment, Zhu Guangting couldn't help but be speechless, Liu Zhi's words are not unreasonable, if the position of the prince of the country is handed over to the new party, wouldn't it be equivalent to picking up a long knife with his own hands and handing it to the new party?
And those people in the Shu Party, although they only listened to Su Dongpo's words, but to a considerable extent, they still belong to the old party faction.
It's just the temperament of these people, it's really a little helpless.
"Among the Shu party, they are all arrogant, foolish brother has a candidate here, I don't know if you like it?" Seeing Zhu Guangting's appearance, Liu Zhi, who knew that he had persuaded the other party, stroked his long beard and said slowly.
"Who?"
"Taixue Xuezheng Li Gefei ......"
"Him?!" Zhu Guangting jumped up directly from the couch, with a dog-like expression on his face, looking at Liu Zhi dumbfounded.

"Brother Fool knows the grievances between you and that Wang Wushan, and now that you are old, you have a great relationship with that Wang Wushan, but the problem is that Li Gefei is not this person, but he is an excellent candidate."
"His person, Li Gefei is loyal, but he has always been upright, he is a rare gentleman, he has never argued with others with his personal likes and dislikes, and he is also the father-in-law of Wang Yang Wang Wushan, if you recommend it to Your Majesty, Your Majesty will not object, this is the biggest key."
"Your Majesty has been extremely fond of Wang Yang and Wang Wushan, and now, let that Li Gefei become the prince of the country, this is ......" Zhu Guangting's face showed indignation, and he was still unwilling.
"Li Gefei is a well-educated person, not good at court disputes, he is obsessed with the way of learning, and it is very appropriate for him to take on the position of the country's priest wine. The important thing is that Wang Yang has repeatedly made new contributions to the border of Shaanxi, and His Majesty has tried to reward him several times, but we have blocked him......"
"If you recommend Li Gefei, it is not only to show your sincerity like Your Majesty, but also to show goodwill to Your Majesty on behalf of my old party, understand?"
Seeing Liu Zhi's serious face, Zhu Guangting couldn't help but sit down on the couch in a gloomy manner, revealing a bitter smile. "Isn't there anyone else? Aren't there several good officials in the Shu Party? ”
"Yes, there are, but some of them are either too far away from the center, or they lack qualifications and prestige......"
Zhu Guangting nodded helplessly. "Since Brother Tai thinks that he Li Gefei is the most suitable candidate, then the younger brother recommends him to His Majesty. It can be regarded as the last thing Zhu did when he left the court and did for my old party line......"
"Brother Lao Xian has endured the humiliation, your kindness, the foolish brother will definitely remember it," Liu Zhi secretly breathed a sigh of relief, quickly stood up, and bowed deeply to Zhu Guangting, and said sincerely.
After Liu Zhi, who got the answer he wanted and was satisfied, left, Zhu Guangting, who had been sitting in the room for a long time, asked people to bring wine and food, and drank by himself, drinking alone until it was white.

A few days later, the Son of Heaven received two more letters from Zhu Guangting, and then finally announced that Zhu Guangting would be allowed to enter the court to see him.
When they saw Zhu Guangting again, everyone couldn't help but look suspicious, only ten days had passed, and Zhu Guangting, who was less than sixty years old, seemed to be ten years old, and his sideburns, which were originally mixed with silver wires, were already gray.
"The old minister sees Your Majesty'......" Zhu Guangting didn't pay attention to the surprised expressions of the courtiers, and went to the front of the imperial case first, and said with a deep salute.
"Zhu Qing is exempt, didn't I let you live and recuperate in the mansion? Why is it becoming more and more ...... today" Zhao Xu frowned slightly and asked.
"Your Majesty, the minister has been closed these days, and I wanted to recuperate in peace, but unfortunately I have not been able to receive the news of His Majesty's Grace and Permission to tell the old man, so I toss and turn every day......
Hearing this guy's words, many civil and military ministers couldn't help but secretly scold this person in their hearts for being a typical sycophant.
What kind of mood others are in, naturally Zhao Xu can't worry about it, but Zhu Guangting's words made Zhao Xu quite satisfied, and whether it is true or not, at least these words are a perfect excuse.
"I can't imagine that Zhu Lao Aiqing insists on this, since the Qing family has made up its mind, so it seems that even if I force Qing to stay in the court, I am afraid that Qing has no intention of governing things, it is better to let you sue well, so that Qing can enjoy the joy of teasing Sun, your old man's recital, I am ...... it"
"Minister, Your Majesty Longen...... "Hearing the words that I allowed you to tell the old man, Rao was mentally prepared for a long time, and Zhu Guangting still felt a sour and desolate feeling in his heart, but fortunately, he covered his expression by bowing to the ground.
"The Qing family is also regarded as a hard work and merit for me to be a great song, and since I have made up my mind today, I naturally can't help but express something, what else does Qing have to say to me?" Zhao Xu continued according to the past routine. Not...... This is that after the courtier's resignation, he can make a request, as long as it is not excessive, and the general Son of Heaven will agree.
After all, this can be regarded as a way to fulfill the righteousness of the monarch and the minister.
Zhu Guangting, who was lying on the ground, stood up and replied after bowing to Zhao Xu, the Son of Heaven, again. "The minister is already selfish, and to His Majesty to tell the old, the minister is already afraid, how dare to make any request, but, if the minister leaves like this, I am afraid that His Majesty will be worried about the position of the country's prince of sacrificial wine, so the minister wants to recommend to His Majesty a person with both virtue and talent......"
At this moment, Zhao Xu's face couldn't help but stiffen, and suddenly there were 10,000 grass and mud horses in his heart who couldn't wait to try.
