Chapter 308: The Wedding Date Is Approaching

Golden autumn and August, it is the harvest season, and it is just in time for the emperor's wedding, this August of the first year of Zhengde, for the people of the capital and even the world, it is quite a festive month.

But for those who are in the game, or those who are discerning on the outside, this August is destined to be extraordinary. Under the joyful ocean of celebration all over the world, lurking is a surging and deep killing machine!

It is difficult to say exactly when the tension began.

Some people think that it should be marked by the beginning of the tide of words, but although the momentum of the tide of words is not small, it can be placed in the first year of Zhengde, and it is really nothing, no matter how big it is, it is not as good as the one in the suburbs of Beijing in February.

Some people also think that it should be counted with the change of the Five Cities Terracotta Division, but the actions of the Five Cities Terracotta Division really did not provoke any reaction, and the effect only caused a lot of inconvenience to the people of the capital, and added a lot of public security criminal cases to the capital.

More people believe that what caused a series of reactions in the back should be the sudden change of the baseball league's competition system, so that 3,000 baseball teenagers gathered in Xiyuan.

However, as long as people who know the inside story will scoff at this statement, just looking for a name, that baseball league is not related to the overall situation, without baseball, the emperor will not go to horse riding and archery, anyway, he will not stay in the palace honestly to study.

The event that really marked the surname was the comeback of Xie Qian, a university scholar.

The cabinet ministers are the role models of the ministers of the world, and their every move certainly affects people's hearts, since the incident in the small black house, Xie Qian has not been closed, and even the banquet that shocked the world later failed to make Xie Daxue tempted. Therefore, the government and the opposition are not without criticism, and many people are discussing whether Scholar Xie is going to be a scholar.

For the people, this is just a talking point, but for many officials in the DPRK and China, this matter has touched the most sensitive string in their hearts.

Of course, there is more hope for a high grade, and this kind of thing is a test of people's patience, and it is easy to have a vacancy, and it is such a high-level shortage, of course they will be nervous and expectant.

Such a shortage, the low-grade can't be counted on, but since you are in the court, you always have to look at the style, if you have a quasi-letter in advance, go to take refuge as soon as possible, at least you can occupy a relatively high position in the hearts of the future ministers. Isn't the so-called henchman just a little bit, slowly turning from an outsider to an insider?

Of course, for a real discerning person, these thoughts are very nonsense, but the eyes of Scholar Xie are still looking at the position of the first assistant, where can it be so good?

It's just that no matter how others guess, Xie Qian is like a hibernating old turtle, huddled at home, without any movement, it is really a bit unfathomable.

Therefore, his sudden comeback immediately attracted the attention of many people. That's not all, a series of actions after his comeback really made him the center of attention in the capital and even the world.

After Xie Hong entered Beijing and set off a series of storms; When everyone regarded him as a plague god, and everyone looked at each other, but they didn't dare to face it directly, a hero who was determined to hoe and annihilate finally appeared, and this hero still had the corresponding identity and strength, he was Xie Qian.

Xie Qian, who had just reappeared in the court, quickly took over the banner of leading the tide of speech, and commanded the officials to launch a mercury-like impeachment, and Xie Hong's life was all dug up.

from Beizhuang County's offering of treasure to beg for tricks, and then framed Zhongliang, as well as gossipes to confuse the public; then opened a tea house in Xuanfu, and skillfully set up a name to bewitch the sacred heart; Bullying and dominating the market, selling inferior products to attack competitors in the same industry; In the end, many of his bad deeds in the capital were dug up by the officials, interpreted from different angles, and finally printed into a newspaper and spread all over the world.

And with the addition of Xie Qian, the momentum of the tide of words is also greater, and the weight is also heavier, and even the queen mother of the two palaces was alarmed, and she summoned Zhengde to inquire before giving up.

In addition, with the approval of Scholar Xie Daxue, on the day of his comeback, the various departments of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division made a big move, setting up card patrols in many places in the capital, and claiming to the outside world that there were White Lotus Sect bandits lurking in Beijing and wanted to make trouble when the emperor got married, so there was this arrangement.

At the beginning, this move also caused a lot of stirring in the capital, but later saw that the sergeants of the Terracotta Division were guarding themselves and not disturbing the people too much, so the people were relieved.

Ordinary people are used to it, since they have not caused too much inconvenience to their own families, and they have the recognition of university scholars, everyone has nothing to be dissatisfied with, and the villains of the Terracotta Division have not disturbed the people for a day or two, and everyone has long been used to it.

Knowledgeable people naturally don't have the same idea as ordinary people, just look at the location of those checkpoints, and then think about the map of the capital, where do you not know who Scholar Xie is aiming for?

What's more, the tide of words is not a joke, it is a voice that resounded throughout the government and the opposition, spreading all over the world, unless it is a deaf and blind person, how can it not hear or see?

Scholar Xie stepped forward to face the plague god, this matter itself is not unusual, even if it is a series of trends under his leadership, not long ago, these things have been done, and they have all been planted to varying degrees.

However, this time, I don't know if the prestige of Scholar Xie is too high, or whether the plague god has been exhausted and has been targeted like this, and the Ordnance Department has no reaction at all.

The previous tide of words all hit a wall with the emperor, and staying in the middle of the country is already a very gentle reaction, and the small black house of the pit people and instigating the emperor to fake self-harm are Xie Hong's regular countermeasures.

But this time, the emperor didn't react at all, and even seemed to be so scared that he hid directly in Xiyuan, not even going to court.

It's not just that the emperor didn't react, in the past, when he encountered this kind of thing, no matter whether the people believed it or not, and which side they supported, Hou Defang, who was the vanguard of public opinion in the Ordnance Division, was never willing to lag behind, and always had to jump out to fight for tat. But this time, Hou Defang also suddenly became dumb, and there was no sound at all.

As for those checkpoints, the military department has not been set up in the past, but what happened was witnessed by half of the people in the capital, which was called a miserable. But this time, the fan of the Ordnance Division did not move at all, as if he had fallen off with the previous Scholar Xie, and suddenly died down.

There are even many rumors that Xie Hong, the leader of the Ordnance Division, is now afraid, so he hid in the West Garden to seek the protection of the emperor.

Whether these rumors are true or not, no one will know, but in the eyes of outsiders, the Ordnance Division has lost its prestige and suddenly shrunk its hands.

As a result, there was a burst of praise for Scholar Xie in the government and the opposition, although he had not yet achieved full success, but after all, in the struggle with Xie Hong, it was rare to have an overall upper hand, and many Wenchen were a little fluttering.

Of course, they will not admit how much they attach importance to Xie Hong, they will only say that this is what the sage said that evil is invincible, and they just feel the sage's foresight.

Many people were eager to try it, and they all clamored for the closure of the Royal Park, the sealing of the treasure house, and the collection of all these ill-gotten gains. But it is clear that these opinions come from low-grade officials who are too impulsive, and the real ministers will not be so far-sighted.

If Xie Hong really coerced the Son of Heaven out of the palace and tried to meet with the fans of the Ordnance Division, I am afraid it would turn into a big chaos, no one wants to see such a scene, and the rat trap is the most appropriate metaphor for the courtiers' current mentality.

Of course, the most important thing is that there is not much cash and inventory in Zhenbao Zhai and Houdefang, and the real wealth is in Xiyuan and the Ordnance Division.

In addition, the people didn't know, but they knew that the fan in the Ordnance Division was not as honest as it seemed outside, otherwise that Xie Hong should be isolated from Xiyuan.

On the night of Xie Qian's comeback and the establishment of the checkpoint, a group of fans stormed a checkpoint, and before the ambush soldiers had time to reinforce, they escorted someone into Xiyuan, fortunately, except for Xie Hong and a few guards with him, there was no other fan to follow up on Xiyuan.

Maybe in order to lure away the pursuers, after the fans broke through the checkpoint, they went in different directions, because the ambush soldiers focused on the fans, so they didn't have time to stop it, the news that Xie Hong entered Xiyuan was still the news from Wang Yue afterwards.

In addition to regretting that they could not stop Xie Hong from rushing to Zhengde's side, the courtiers were also embarrassed, on the one hand, they were amazed by Xie Hong's sensitive sense of smell, and on the other hand, they were also slandered by Xie Qian's fanfare. In addition, the courtiers also paid more attention to the fanzi of the Ordnance Division.

This group of people is the hardliner in Xie Hong's gang, even in today's stormy situation, these people still have not relaxed their vigilance against the so-called forbidden area, even if they know that there are ambushes on the side, but they are still unrelenting to the spies who enter the forbidden area, so that the spies do not dare to approach there at all, which dilutes the joy of the Wenchen after the great victory.

Of course, these are all details, although Xie Hong fled into Xiyuan, but the final outcome will not change, and for thousands of years, in the land of China, anyone who opposes the scholar has only one end: ruined and broken!

And if he thinks that the ministers of the foreign dynasty are stupid and will only reuse the tricks he used before, then he is even more wrong, the ministers are very sure, and at the moment of the final showdown, that annihilation will know how big and outrageous the mistakes he has made!

That moment is not far away, just three days later, that is, the day of the emperor's wedding!
