Li Tingji's words were already explicit, looking at Sun Piyang's thoughtful gaze, Ye Xianggao couldn't help but feel a little hot.

I know my own family affairs, among several big figures in the imperial party, only my own popularity is the best, but this good popularity is not in vain, in addition to Ye Xianggao's high and righteous righteousness, he doesn't like to compete with others, and more importantly, he is generous and bold.

Not to mention anything else, organizing all kinds of literati gatherings is Ye Xianggao's favorite thing, so his fortunes are naturally stretched.

However, since the beginning of the Jiajing Dynasty, the senior officials of the Ming Dynasty have rarely been troubled by money problems, Ye Xianggao as a rising star in his career, one of the three giants of the imperial party, and even more of the officials who hold real power, Zuo Shilang, some people welcome him, and all kinds of gray income in the open and secret are also a lot, especially in the capital, there are many rich businessmen and giants, who like to be vassals and elegant, and it is even more undesirable to be able to climb to a noble family like Ye Shilang. Often, all the expenses they spend on a banquet are just for a seat at the end of the ceremony, this kind of thing is not uncommon, and Ye Shilang has also done a lot.

Of course, this kind of practice is not an unusual thing in the court, there are many officials who do this, Ye Shilang can only be regarded as Xiao Gui Cao Sui at most, and what he does is not very out of line.

However, this kind of thing is okay in the past, but in the current situation, Ye Shilang's situation is a little dangerous!

The Son of Heaven wants to rectify the atmosphere of officialdom and curb corruption, but he first has Ye Xianggao, a confidant and close minister with unclean hands and feet, should he clean it up or not?

Ye Xianggao swallowed his saliva, and he already had the answer in his heart......

The Son of Heaven is a person who values love and righteousness, but he is not a person who does not distinguish between right and wrong, Ye Xianggao is not stupid enough to think that the Son of Heaven will change the pace of rectifying the rule of officials because of himself.

It is more likely that he will be hidden in the snow or even taken out to make an example of the monkeys!

Just imagine, the Son of Heaven can even dispose of his own henchmen and close ministers, who else dares to stop the footsteps of the Son of Heaven......

"Please teach me, Brother Li!"

The cold sweat on his head became more and more, Ye Xianggao straightened his face and said solemnly.

Li Tingji raised his hand and pressed it, his brows were also furrowed, and he said.

"Jin Qing is a little restless, since the Son of Heaven arranged for Jin Qing to go out of Beijing to avoid trouble, I think he also has the intention of protecting Jin Qing, but what the old man is worried about is that this time the Son of Heaven is quite big, and there will be young people in the court who secretly obstruct it, and you dare not confront the Son of Heaven head-on, you will inevitably take a roundabout way, and then someone will definitely hit the idea on Jin Qing's body, if it is a big trouble, even if Your Majesty has the heart to protect you, then if you have to do it, even if Jin Qing is outside the capital, it will be difficult to protect it!"

Ye Xianggao's face became more and more ugly, of course he knew this section, after all, the Son of Heaven was a person who valued love and righteousness, if it was not necessary, the Son of Heaven might not want to sacrifice him, but it has always been a big game between the monarch and the courtiers.

The Son of Heaven sent him out of the capital, of course, with the intention of protection, but as Li Tingji said, this is just a way to cover his ears and steal the bell, and those who want to obstruct the Son of Heaven will inevitably end up hitting him on the head.

At that time, I am afraid that he will have to resign himself to fate......

"Don't be alarmist, since you invited Jinqing over, you must have a countermeasure in mind, right?"

Shaking his head, Sun Piyang, who was still on the side, couldn't stand it anymore and spoke.

Sun Tianguan pursed his lips, and couldn't help but slander in his heart, this Li Tingji is really tricky, this matter is serious, but in the eyes of Sun Tianguan, who has been in the officialdom for a long time, it is just ordinary, Sun Tianguan has seen a lot of winds and waves, and naturally knows that what Li Tingji said is just the worst situation.

Others will target the Imperial Party, and the Son of Heaven will not sit idly by, not to mention, since someone has set up a situation, there will be a way to break the situation, even if the situation in front of him is critical, as long as the situation can be broken, it will be a vast sky.

He has been in officialdom for so many years, and he has never seen anyone who can set up a dead situation where people have no place to escape.

Li Tingji said it seriously, but how could Sun Tianguan not see that this product was already in his chest, but it was just scaring Ye Xianggao......

"Lord Tianguan, the old man does have a little gain in his heart, but he still needs the help of Lord Tianguan in this matter!"

However, what Sun Shangshu didn't expect was that when Li Ge Lao heard this, he immediately turned around and arched his hand neatly, and said with a solemn expression.

"This ......"

Sun Shangshu, who was still slandering Li Ge Lao and Ye Shilang just now, didn't seem to have a good relationship with the rumors outside, and suddenly sat on the wax, and the two of them were singing double reeds at all, and in the end, it was himself who was trapped?

Sun Shangshu was a little depressed, and his voice became a little stupid.

"If you have something to say, just say it, if the old man can help, he must do his best!"

It's just that expression, no matter how you look at it, it's a reluctant look......

"Lord Tianguan is righteous, in fact, this is also the reason why the old man invited Lord Tianguan to come over today, the old man wants to invite Lord Tianguan and the old man to jointly write a letter to ask Your Majesty to rectify the corruption in officialdom!"

Li Tingji didn't react, and he was even in the mood to continue to put on a high hat for Sun Tianguan.

Anyway, Li Ge Lao doesn't know where to throw it now, like such a small verbal trap, there is no pressure to do it.

"Signing a joint letter?"

Sun Tianguan's brows furrowed, and his face was faintly ugly.

You know, this is not a trivial matter, although he is now determined to follow in the footsteps of the Son of Heaven, but the Son of Heaven is the Son of Heaven, and the Imperial Party is the Imperial Party, this is not the same thing, he wants to follow the Son of Heaven, but he does not want to merge into the Imperial Party.

If Sun Tianguan and Li Tingji Ye jointly wrote to Gao, it would undoubtedly make the courtiers think that Sun Tianguan had stood with the imperial party.

This is somewhat contrary to Sun Tianguan's concept, who has been in officialdom for many years, Sun Tianguan has always adhered to a principle and never participated in forming a party, which is very similar to Lao Shoufu.

Even now, when the party struggle is becoming more and more fierce, he has not joined any of the big factions, although with his status, every big faction in the court must be very welcoming to him, but it is precisely because of this position in the Ministry of Officials that Sun Tianguan knows better the harm of party strife to the court.

What's more, a very important reason why Sun Tianguan has been able to stay in the position of the official secretary for so many years is that the faction color on his body is very light, and he will not favor any faction, but will sit steadily, and now Li Tingji wants to pull him into the imperial party, which naturally makes Sun Tianguan not very happy......
