As soon as the pocket was arranged, the plug Yinxi came out, and Jilharang, who was heading south, punched the cotton.

The loyal battalion encountered a broken formation along the way, encountered the enemy and killed the enemy, carrying all the reinforcements along the way, and retreated to the city of Xiangyang.

In the city of Xiangyang, the Ming army defended the clouds and saw the moon, and the despair disappeared. The people of Xiangyang were also overjoyed, and welcomed the army back to Xiangyang.

When the news reached Jinling, Lu Zhenfei and others jointly signed a letter to impeach and block Yinxi for giving up the lost territory regained, retreating in fear of war, and requesting to be escorted back to Nanjing for investigation.

At the beginning, he tried his best to override public opinion and recruit the Dashun East Route Army, and then formed a loyal battalion. The ministers of the DPRK and China were in an uproar, and in their hearts at that time, the hatred of Li Zicheng, who had been in trouble in the Central Plains for decades, was much higher than that of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, who had not long entered the customs. In particular, Li Zicheng forced Emperor Chongzhen to death, and he was a heinous traitor.

Emperor Zhu Yu of Longwu overrode public opinion, supported the recruitment of Yinxi, and gave the name of the loyal camp. It was from here that there was a rift between the ministers of the DPRK and the central government. And Du Yinxi is very assertive, and the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty hoped that he could use the 200,000 people in his hands to balance Hou Xuanyan. Who knew the battle of Jingxiang, he and Hou Xuanyan were identical, and they also wrote together to advocate recruiting Zhang Xianzhong. This also led Hou Xuanyan to be unscrupulous, attack and kill He Tengjiao, cut off Huang Daozhou, and run Huguang into his own Yiyantang.

This time, after a battle in the Northern Expedition, he hurriedly gave up the lost territory and fled back to Xiangyang. In the eyes of the ministers, this is definitely a huge stain. Lu Zhenfei wrote the recital early, consciously reasonable, and couldn't wait to enter the palace before dawn.

One day's recital was transported to the cabinet, Lu Zhenfei and Liu Zhongzao agreed with each other, and after they drafted their own votes, they put them on top.

Wang Xiangnian, the eunuch of the celebrant supervisor, didn't look at it, and transported it to the regent's hall in one go.

Hou Xuanyan looked at the two scholars who jointly signed the book, and said with a smile: "This is the judgment of a pedantic nerd, blocking Yinxi to give up Nanyang is the choice of great wisdom and bravery." ”

After pondering for a while, Hou Xuanyan raised his voice and said: "Go to the palace to inquire about His Royal Highness, Li Guo (Li Jin), who died in the war, is the Marquis of Xingguo, and his descendants are hereditary, and he will be given the Zhuguo, the prince and the prince." Add the seal and block Yinxi as the Marquis of Xiangyang, and give 10,000 taels of gold. ”

There are many swordsmen, pawn officials, and secretarial confidential officials in the Regency Hall. Moreover, for the sake of convenience, Hou Xuanyan worked in a lobby with them, and he could inquire at any time without the need for summons.

When everyone heard this, they all remembered it, and at noon, the teahouse and wine shop spread. The gossip soon reached the ears of Liu Zhongzao and Lu Zhenfei, and the two of them were embarrassed and indignant.

Hou Xuanyan didn't know how much dignity he had dealt to the two scholars by accidentally saying something in his heart.

When Lu Zhenfei came to the Regent Hall angrily, Hou Xuanyan stepped forward happily and said, "Why does Lord Lu have time to come, do you want to have a drink with me?" ”

Lu Zhenfei stiffened his neck and said angrily: "Xiaguan is a pedantic nerd, how dare he drink with the country." ”

Hou Xuanyan said people behind his back, and it was inevitably a little embarrassing to be exposed on the spot. Touching his nose and laughing twice, he said stupidly: "For a while, Meng Lang, there is no one on his mouth, don't mind Lord Lu." I will visit another day and apologize. ”

Lu Zhenfei's face was a little pale, his words were said in the Regent Hall, and everyone in the hall could testify and save some of his face. Lu Zhenfei continued: "The defeat of Plugging Yinxi and the loss of troops will return to Xiangyang, so that our Northern Expedition plan will be frustrated, and there will be a reward instead of punishment, isn't it inappropriate." ”

The expression on Hou Xuanyan's face changed abruptly, and he said with a cold face: "If Yin Xi doesn't retreat, not to mention the burial of my 200,000 soldiers, it is very likely that Jingxiang will change hands." Cutting off Jingxiang is to cut off the connection between Jiangnan and Sichuan and Guizhou, and at that time, it was a complete loss. Although Lord Lu is full of wealth, he doesn't seem to know about soldiers, so it's better to hear more about such things and talk less. ”

Lu Zhenfei and Hou Dong used to be old friends, and they can be regarded as half of Hou Xuanyan's elders, he didn't expect that Hou Xuanyan, who was usually polite, would become disrespectful as soon as Hou Xuanyan was involved in this kind of thing. Relying on his seniority, he scolded: "When the old man has been in the court for a long time and made suggestions for military affairs, you were still literate in the school." ”

Hou Xuanyan also moved the real fire, every time the front-line heroes fought, there were people behind him who made stumbling blocks. Fighting back and forth, fighting for the corruption of the imperial court's discipline and discipline, everyone only tried to protect themselves and frame political enemies, and no one dared to offer advice.

Hou Xuanyan, whose nostrils were facing the sky, looked at the eaves, and sneered: "If it weren't for the concerted efforts of all the monarchs, how could half of Shenzhou go to the iron hooves of the alien race, and the children of the Han family in the north would not be slaves for men and women for maids, I really have to thank you for them." Fortunately, now it's my turn to take charge, you can rest, you are not tired, the Han family is tired for thousands of years. ”

"I... I... This official, the old man fought with you. Lu Zhenfei's face was like a pig's liver, he jumped up and pinched Hou Xuanyan's neck, and Hou Xuanyan gently pushed him to the ground.

The officials of the Regent's Hall had their ears pricked up, it was very lively, and when they were having fun, they heard a sound outside, and everyone was shocked: Yue Guogong is young and strong, how did he beat the old minister.

When I came out to take a look, I found that it was not Lu Zhenfei who fell to the ground and screamed, but Hou Xuanyan.

After Hou Xuanyan pushed Lu Zhenfei, he saw that things were not good, and he just wanted to go up and help him up. Who knows, when I look at Lu Zhenfei's appearance, he looks like an old man who wanted to touch porcelain in his previous life.

Hou Xuanyan made a decision immediately, fell to the ground and wailed, Lu Zhenfei looked at it and stood up dumbfounded.

The officials of the Regent Hall gathered outside Tang, and there were a few old qualifications, who stepped forward to help Hou Xuanyan up, and accused Lu Zhenfei: "At the age of Lu Ge, how can he be so ruthless." ”

"Grandpa Guo, are you alright?"

Hou Xuanyan shouted: "Don't move, don't move, my neck may be broken." ”

Everyone was shocked and shouted: "Guogong's neck is broken!" ”

"Why not poison next time."

There were also people who, when they wowed, cried out: "My father-in-law! ”

Hu Bawan and the others were on the side, seeing it clearly, holding back a smile and not daring to step forward.

Lu Zhenfei finally understood, he was trying to frame himself, Lu Zhenfei's temperament was quite peaceful, but when he saw such a shameless scene, he couldn't help but be angry: "Little thief, little monkey thief, the old man fought with you." ”

--------

In the early morning of the next day, Her Royal Highness the Queen, who had always been gentle and graceful, was full of feminine authority. Because she heard that her great loyal minister, the reliance of the entire court, was almost choked by someone's neck.

Soon, a decree came out of the Forbidden City, and Wang Xiangnian personally passed the decree to show his attention: Lu Zhenfei was disrespectful to the old man, beat his colleagues, despised the majesty of the imperial court, and dismissed him from the position of scholar of Wenyuan Pavilion. Lu Zhenfei was disheartened, and wrote a letter requesting to return to his hometown, and the approved documents quickly came down and allowed Lu Zhenfei to return to his hometown.

Lu Zhenfei has a very high reputation, and he thought that many officials and gentry would come to see him off. As a result, there were only a few people, and Liu Zhongzao said angrily: "People are warm and cold, and the world is hot and cold, how can it be like this." tends to be inflammatory, slips and shoots horses, and does not fall behind. Brother Haoyue went here, putting the burden of the court on the foolish brother alone. ”

Lu Zhenfei looked bitter, he didn't want to withdraw from the cabinet, this is destined to be an era that will leave a name in history. If you win, you are a hero who turns the tide, and if you lose, you are also loyal to the ages such as Wen Tianxiang and Lu Xiufu. This kind of magnificent stage, he doesn't want to quit at all. If he was given a chance, he would never be willing to fall for Hou Xuan's performance.

Lu Zhenfei was so discouraged that he couldn't even say a few words of encouragement to Liu Zhongzao. Nodding silently, he boarded the carriage back to his hometown.

Liu Zhongzao carried his hands behind his back, looking at the carriage in the distance, with mixed feelings in his heart. The little grandson next to him was indignant: "Grandpa, Lord Lu is too rude." ”

Liu Zhongzao smiled bitterly and took his little grandson in his arms, most of his sons were not good, only this little grandson was talented, obedient and well-behaved, and he liked him the most. Liu Zhongzao touched his grandson's head dotingly, and exclaimed: "You are still young and don't understand his mind, but grandpa can understand a thing or two..."

In the inner courtyard of the Regent Hall, Hou Xuanyan, whose neck was almost broken, lay on the bed with Erlang's legs crossed, and spit out the chewed grape skin with one mouth: "Is Lord Lu gone?" ”

Zhao Yuanhua said with a smile: "Look at the time, it should have already set off." ”

Hou Xuanyan nodded, the grapes in his mouth were a little sour, and he asked in a tight voice: "I heard that Liu Zhongzao's youngest son likes to visit the Qinglou, is there any evil behavior?" ”

Zhao Yuanhua took a few steps closer and said softly: "You can have it, you can have it, you can't have it." ”

Hou Xuanyan sat up, pressed his knees, and said solemnly: "Yes, there must be." People are not romantic teenagers, such an amorous seed, if he doesn't cause trouble for his father, his boyhood is very incomplete. Liu Ge is always the first assistant of the cabinet, and Liu Sangongzi is the second generation of today's largest official. ”

"My subordinates understand." After Zhao Yuanhua finished speaking, he retreated and closed the door very intimately. After all, the commander's neck was almost broken, and people could see him eating grapes in a good way, which had a bad impact.

Wenyuan Pavilion University Scholar is the head of the hundred officials, if the party dispute loses its fairness, then the court has no progress compared to Chongzhen, or the court of the country.

The formation of a party in the Qing Dynasty began with the scholars of Wenyuan Pavilion.

The living room was crowded with officials who came to visit the patient, and I heard that the neck of the Duke of Yue was almost broken, and some sent precious medicinal materials, some sent peerless famous doctors, and some sent nourishing secret recipes.

As soon as Lu Zhenfei left, the three scholars in the cabinet vacated a place. Now that it is not the Chengping period, many conditions are required to enter the cabinet. For example, it must be a Jinshi background, and it must be a high-ranking Shujishi, first to be a scholar or squire of the Beijing Division or the Sixth Department of Nanjing, and when it is necessary to supplement the cabinet members, the officials will recommend the candidates, and then the emperor will choose to appoint.

Now it's different, everyone knows that entering the cabinet only requires Hou Xuanyan's consent.

Hou Xuanyan looked at the gift list, he didn't look at the content and names on it at all, at this point today, where do you need these people to bribe. If he wants, he can get anything in the world. What is needed now is a really obedient cabinet, and the ability is secondary.

In his heart, he already has a plan, Jiangyin Dianshi Chen Mingyu, Yan Yingyuan's old partner, is a good choice. First of all, he is the old department of the Restoration Master, and he has a close relationship with him. And Chen Mingyu never pointed fingers at things he didn't understand. At the beginning of guarding Jiangyin, everyone elected him as the leader, and he felt that his talent was not as good as his retired predecessor Yan Yingyuan, so he resolutely decided to invite him out of the mountain. It shows that this person has the wisdom to know people, and he also has the courage to use people. After driving Liu Zhongzao away, you can let him be the first assistant.

So, who will replace Lu Zhenfei? The ministers outside thought that there was a vacant position in the cabinet, but they didn't know that Hou Xuanyan already had two positions in his heart.

Just when Hou Xuanyan was hesitating, Yang Shu outside knocked on the door: "Young Master, can you come in?" ”

Hearing the familiar voice, Hou Xuanyan's heart warmed, he wanted to leave Yang Shu in Suzhou and his family to enjoy Qingfu, but Yang Shu insisted on coming to Jinling.

After Yang Shu came in, there was a slight embarrassment on his face, and he leaned closer and said, "Young Master, there is a gift, I don't know if I should accept it." ”

Hou Xuanyan pouted, looking unhappy, after getting along for so long, why do you have to ask. Taking a sip of tea, Hou Xuanyan said leisurely: "Uncle Yang doesn't have to hesitate, grasp a principle, and those who come will not refuse." I collect too much, and if I don't give them errands, I won't give them away in the future. This is called inaction, which is really a good move. ”

Yang Shu smiled: "Then I will rest assured, Ma Shiying sent his little daughter to the mansion and said that she was a serving maid for the young man, and I will take her to the inner courtyard." ”

Hou Xuanyan squirted out a mouthful of water, wiped it and asked, "Ma Shiying?" Is it Ma Shiying, the first assistant of the Hongguang Dynasty? ”

Yang Shu nodded and said: "But he looks a little depressed now, I followed the master back then, and I once saw him in Nanjing, when he was dignified and proud." When I came to our house today, my clothes were shabby and my old state was so old that I almost didn't recognize it. ”

Hou Xuanyan groaned: "This is a character, it is quite suitable to be a cabinet." "Although Ma Shiying was a little flattering when he was an official, he did some things for King Xiaofu. But the people are iron-clad and run in many ways, and they have never defected. It's a pity that his relationship with the Donglin Party is too poor, and he is a good martyr who died of martyrdom, and he was scolded as a minister through the ages. This person has a loss in his private affairs, his righteousness is not damaged, there is nothing wrong with him, and he is the most hated character of the literati, it is also necessary to help him be a cabinet and do nothing, just disgusting that group of people.

As for his liking of power, try to ask which "gentleman" doesn't like high-ranking officials, but he just can't get a blush. If he is impoverished and disliked everywhere, and insists on resisting the Qing Dynasty, he is qualified to be a cabinet.

Hou Xuanyan made up his mind and slapped the table: "Let him come in, I want to see him." ”

Yang Shu didn't know his thoughts, he was worried, and said secretly in his heart: Is the eldest young master a little too good and a woman, what did he just say to be inactive, and when people gave their daughters, they even did it in the cabinet immediately.
