Chapter 244: Critical

This is the end of the conversation with Li Dongyang, and in the face of Li Dongyang's inquiry, Li Yan said what he meant, this Jinyi Guard commander, he should be decided, and whoever comes to stop him will get rid of whom.

As for whether Li Dongyang will send a message to Liu Jian and Xie Qian, these are no longer within the scope of Li Yan's consideration, and Li Yan has an intuition that it seems that Li Dongyang is on his side.

Sure enough, after Li Dongyang analyzed the ins and outs of the whole matter for himself, the storm unfolded secretly, and the frequency of private meetings between Liu Jian and Xie Qian increased a lot, and all the court officials also left their homes one after another and visited frequently...... These people, according to Li Yan's investigation, are all from Liu Xie and his disciples.

The Ming Dynasty had such an unwritten rule called throwing stones to ask for directions.

After the autumn examination every year, the champions who came out of this year will go to visit the examiners of this year, and at the same time, these champions will also enter the door of these examiners.

This point has become a trend in the Ming Dynasty, and it is a win-win good thing, although the emperor has quite objections to this kind of thing, and can only turn a blind eye.

Now Liu Jian Xie Qian began to mobilize all the students under his command, intending to expelle Li Yan from the imperial court, and even put Li Yan to death.

Within a few days, Zhu Houzhao publicly mentioned the matter of Li Yan serving as the commander of the Jinyi Guard at the court meeting, and sure enough, he was opposed by many people.

Among them, the strongest voices are Liu Jian and Xie Qian.

Liu Jian and Xie Qian spoke fiercely, just after Zhu Houzhao proposed to let Li Yan serve as the commander of the Jinyi Guard, he joined all the ministers to play together, saying that it was absolutely impossible for Li Yan to take this position, not only that, but the two also proposed in public that Li Yan was a villain who deceived his superiors and subordinates, and how could He De hold such an important position.

Not only was Li Yan implicated, but even Sun Mao, who was in Nanjing, was impeached, and on the second day after Zhu Houzhao initiated the court meeting, he was dismissed from his post and investigated, and even his home was smashed by some unknown people.

The matter of the front foot and the back foot, if it is said that there is nothing greasy in it, Li Yan will definitely not believe it.

When Li Yan received this news, Li Yan's face was instantly difficult to see, and even the temperature around Li Yan dropped a lot out of thin air, which shows the degree of anger in Li Yan's heart at the moment.

Even Zhao Shun, who is frivolous and rude on weekdays, didn't dare to say a word more.

Mike was also silent, and the God Lord God who had been hanging on his lips all day was directly left behind, and followed closely by Li Yan's side without saying a word.

But despite this, all the things these days, Li Yan secretly put it in his heart, didn't say anything, returned home, Sun Ying also faintly heard something in the past few days, these days it is rare not to bother Li Yan, stay at home and not go out, Li Mansion people do not dare to go against the old lady's thoughts, they are all silent, and the atmosphere does not dare to come out, for fear of annoying them.

The atmosphere in the Li Mansion has dropped to the freezing point.

On this day, Li Yan returned home after handling official business, his face was suddenly stunned, and he saw Sun Mao and his wife with Sun Yu I don't know when they had been sitting in their own house, Sun Mao was sitting on the desk chair with a blue face and drinking tea, from time to time Ling Li glanced at the mother and daughter who were talking heartily, and Sun Yu still had injuries on his face.

"My son-in-law has seen my father-in-law." After Li Yan entered the house, he first saluted Sun Mao, and then sat aside.

"Yes." Sun Mao was not in a good mood now, so he just nodded, and then stopped talking.

Li Yan looked at Sun Yu, Sun Yu's face became even more ugly, and he couldn't help but twist his face and rush the bruised part away.

"What's up with your face?" Li Yan couldn't help but ask.

"I ......" Sun Yu was just about to answer, when he heard Sun Ying, who was talking to his mother, say aggrievedly to Li Yan.

"It's not all because of you, Sun Yu was beaten by those civil officials in Nanjing! I'm telling you, they already hit Daddy's house the other day! Sun Ying's pretty face turned pale, pointing at Sun Yu and twisting the small fist in his hand.

"How did I tell you that if they beat you, you won't hit them? Don't you have those fox friends? Where is it now? All dead? I don't help you when you're in trouble! Sun Ying chattered endlessly, pointing at Sun Ying is scolding.

After speaking, Sun Ying pointed at Li Yan. "It's still that Xu Pengju has a conscience, he took people with him when those civil officials went to his father's house, and Tang Bohu, they sent those civil officials back."

Hearing this, Li Yan's heart warmed, and there were still one or two people who were willing to help him.

"Li Yan, the old man didn't come to the capital today to ask you for anything, but to come here to hide and be clean, this matter is ...... Forget it, the old man is not an official yet, after so many years, the old man is also tired. After a moment of silence, Sun Mao put down the teacup and wanted to say something, but the words became this sentence on his lips.

Hearing this, Li Yan was silent, poured himself a cup of tea, and raised his legs to go out.

"Father-in-law, my son-in-law will definitely get justice for you in this matter!"

……

…………

"My lord, according to the report from the spies, Wang Yue's old eunuch returned to Dongchang and stayed in Si Lijian, he has been very close to the minister in the past few days, and there are faint signs of overthrowing Xiao Jing, and Xiao Jing does not seem to have intervened in these things at all, let Wang Yue do what he does, my lord, this Wang Yue is also aimed at you."

Li Yan listened to Zhao Shun's report to him, and was silent.

"Zhao Shun, order to go down, strengthen the monitoring of them, as long as there is a new situation, notify me as soon as possible, and post to Xiao Jing in my name in a while, I will personally ...... Go to the meeting. ”

Zhao Shun walked out, Li Yan lay his head on the Taishi chair, and slowly closed his eyes, as if he wanted to close his eyes to recuperate, but he said something inaudible.

"Wang Yue, you are doing death......"
