Chapter 591: The Edge is Unparalleled!
Although there are five sons in the family, the eldest son, the third son and the fourth son, all died young, and the second son, Jiao Rui, was awarded an official from the seventh grade, and the grandchildren are still young, so Jiao Huangzhong, the young son who has achieved a successful career, has always placed great expectations on Jiao Huangzhong. In the eighteenth year of Hongzhi, he was unexpectedly dropped in the first subject, and he was already holding back a fire in his heart, and now he is easy to enter the cabinet and become the second assistant, just wait for Li Dongyang to hold on, he can be the first assistant, it is the peak of his life, how could he have thought that the next year's meeting has not yet arrived, and Jiao Huangzhong has ended up with a result that he can't get out of bed and even speak?
"That Southern Barbarian, I knew that today, I shouldn't have indulged him in the first place!"
I don't know how many times I said this, seeing Jiao Huangzhong's wife lying on top of people crying like tears, Jiao Fang was even more impatient for a while, gritted his teeth and turned around and walked out of the house. Seeing that the imperial doctors he invited from the Tai Hospital were all full of sadness, he couldn't help but raise his voice and said: "You are all the national players of the Tai Hospital, if you can cure the child as soon as possible, the money will not be a problem, and the old man will definitely have a good reward!" ”
Several imperial doctors looked at each other for a while, and one of the eldest had to stand up under the gaze of the others, but said helplessly: "Elder Jiao Ge, it's not that a few of us don't do our best, it's really the son who is angry, so that the qi and blood in the brain are disordered, and it is almost a small stroke." If someone had been sent to the hospital at that time, it might have been able to recover, but now it can only be slowly recuperated, at least in three or five months. ”
Three or five months? This will be tested in March next year, and it will only be half a year to complete the full calculation, if this time is all used to recuperate, and all those scriptures and histories are thrown away, how will you take the test next year? Moreover, Jiao Huangzhong only had a small stroke at what age he was, what should he do in the future? Three of his five sons have died, is it possible that he wants a white-haired person to send a black-haired person every time?
Jiao Fang only felt the blue tendons on his forehead jumping, and said in a deep voice for a while: "All in all." You just try your best to save people, the old man has always been a person with clear grievances, if he is cured, it is naturally you who have something to ask. I should do anything. But if you blindly push, the old man is not such a temperamental person! ”
Seeing that Jiao Fang put down these words and went out of the door, several imperial doctors exchanged glances with each other, and one of them couldn't help but sneer: "I only know how to play tricks with us, and if he has the ability, he will go to Pingbei Hou to find this justice!" Moreover, I have only heard of beating a dead person, but I have not heard of scolding a dead person. If you weren't a thief, how could a few words have such an effect! ”
His voice was not small, and the scorched yellow who had already woken up in the inner room could hear it clearly, and he was even more angry for a while, and in the end, he turned his back on it again. Seeing that he suddenly fainted again, the wife on the side was suddenly frightened and shouted. When the first few imperial doctors outside heard the voice, they naturally hurried inside, and the old imperial doctor who had started to deal with Jiao Fang glanced at the colleague who had just spoken. couldn't help but sigh and whispered: "You shouldn't say this here, if there are three long and two short in Jiaohuang, his father can't take Xu Xun to his fate." How can I take you out of anger! ”
Although he knew that his predecessor had good intentions, the young imperial doctor gritted his teeth, and finally sneered: "I am the imperial doctor of the imperial hospital, and I came here to diagnose and treat him just to see that he is the second assistant of the cabinet, and I have to go this way, but I shouldn't be the one who should be!" If he really wants to find me, the doctor, I will accompany him, as long as he is not afraid of becoming the laughing stock of the capital! Huang Lao, I'm too lazy to stay in this place anymore. I'll go back to the hospital and wait for someone to trouble me, say goodbye! ”
Seeing that the person put down these words and turned to leave, the old lady was stunned for a moment, and turned back with a wry smile. If it weren't for the fact that there was still a family of old and young in his family, he would be angry at Jiao Fang's ruthless character, and he wouldn't want to leave the Jiao family like this. Too lazy to deal with this vicious cabinet deputy again! ..., Jiao Fang didn't know that there was such a thing at home, after he left the house in Jiaohuang, he went back to the room to change his clothes and go out, but he went straight to Liu's Mansion in Shajia Hutong. Yesterday, he played a sad card in front of Liu Jin, but today he planned to know the benefits and disadvantages, so that Liu Jin would take advantage of the fact that Xu Xun's power had weakened a lot now. Sitting in the sedan chair and stacking the manuscript in his heart, he felt that he could have seventy or eighty percent hope to persuade Liu Jin, so when he got off the sedan chair in front of Liu's mansion, he knew that many people outside were looking at him, so he deliberately made his expression more severe, and then he came out of the sedan chair.
Although the access control of Liu's Mansion is extremely strict now, even if he holds a large amount of silver, he may not be able to knock on the door, but Jiao Fang is a person who often comes and goes after all, and he is the second assistant of the official cabinet. After a while, Zhang Wenmian personally greeted him. This talent from Huating politely arched his hand to Jiao Fang, and the words he said were extremely polite, but Jiao Fang was stunned on the spot when he heard it.
"Elder Jiao Ge, Gonggong Liu is not at home today, and he said that he has not had time to rest recently, if there is something, he will naturally send someone to the cabinet to say. If you have any problems, you can also send someone to the celebrant to tell you. ”
What are you kidding, now Liu Jin is not what he used to be, he said that he was resting on five days and ten days, but he often brought the ceremonial supervisor's recital back to the private house directly, and the ceremonial supervisor in the palace was just a point, when did he want to stay in the palace and not come out!
Jiao Fangqiang suppressed the anger in his heart, and made his voice appear as calm as possible: "Zhang Xianggong, the old man has something extremely important to discuss with Gonggong Liu, can you send a letter to Gonggong Liu and ask him to leave the palace for a free trip?" ”
"This, it's really not that the students don't help Jiao Gelao, after all, this celebrant is in the imperial city, not to mention that it is too difficult to send a letter in, just ask my father-in-law to leave the palace, where do I have this ability." Besides, Jiao Ge, you are already working in the Wenyuan Pavilion of Miyagi, and it is much easier to send someone to the master of ceremonies than a student. Zhang Wenmian hit Tai Chi here, seeing Jiao Fang's face getting more and more gloomy, thinking of the ecstatic look of the other party when he sent a letter to Liu Yu after receiving Liu Jin's instructions last night, he didn't want to perfunctory Jiao Fang at all, and immediately arched his hand and said, "All in all, the student really can't help it, and please be sympathetic to Jiao Ge." There are many things in the house, and the students quit first! ”
Seeing Zhang Wenmian slip away quickly, Jiao Fang didn't need to look back, he could hear the bursts of discussion coming from the Shajia Hutong behind him. But even if he gritted his teeth again, he could only pretend to be casual and return to the sedan chair, and when the sedan finally started, he pinched the handrail, and a sense of frustration that had never been felt before welled up in his heart.
Liu Jin didn't want to see him. Liu Jin, who has always regarded him as his right-hand man, didn't want to see him! Someone must have said something in front of Liu Jin, either Liu Yu or Cao Yuan...... No, it must be Zhang Cai! I thought that Liu Jin should accept Zhang Cai because Zhang Cai was a good woman and arrogant. Let him turn his back on the other hand and cut off Xu Xun's arm, and it turns out that he really didn't misunderstand Zhang Cai's temperament.
But who would have thought that Zhang Cai, who was not very prominent next to Xu Xun, would be so sharp after switching to Liu Jin, and almost said that Liu Jin would be allowed to do anything, and Liu Yu had to look at his face after he was transferred to the secretary of the ministry! Even if Liu Yu and Cao Yuan are high-ranking officials, they don't have the ability to say that in front of Liu Jin. Only Zhang Cai, only Zhang Cai can move Liu Jin so easily!
"I shouldn't have pushed this, damn it, it's me looking for an opponent for myself!"
Jiao Fang, who was muttering to himself, had a hideous face, and he didn't know how long it took, but a thought suddenly popped into his mind. If Zhang Cai's previous actions were just a trick, he voted for Liu Jin just to stoop down and serve the thief as an internal response. In fact, he still has a secret song with Xu Xun? That's right, it must be so, otherwise why would he take his own eye medicine in front of Liu Jin! Seo Hoon has always been the most shrewd person. How could he easily let go of Zhang Cai, he should have seen it a long time ago, and it was not too late to remind Liu Jin now! ..., hid from Jiao Fang for two days, after all, Liu Jin is used to being in power now, and he is not used to holding in the small place of the palace celebrant and eunuch, this evening, he is not publicized, and he went straight to the back door from the back door in a carriage with an inconspicuous appearance. Thinking that there were still a few notes on personnel at hand, he had to order someone to go to Zhang Cai and invite him over. As soon as the people arrived, he ordered the cook to serve the food immediately. While handing over cups and changing lamps, while discussing official business, no matter what Zhang Cai said, Zhang Cai could dispel his hesitation and difficulties with just a few words. When it was time to get drunk, he only felt how happy and happy he was in his heart, and suddenly reached out and grabbed Zhang Cai's sleeve for a while.
"In the early years of our family, we heard people talk about the Three Kingdoms. Liu Bei was overjoyed when he got Zhuge Kongming, and he even personally knitted a straw hat to give it to his military advisor, but he was even more happy when he was reprimanded. At that time, our family only thought that the blind editor who wrote the book, but now that I have to meet Mr. Xilu, I know that this kind of joy is not strange at all, and it is completely deserved! Our family has Mr. Xilu, just like Liu Bei got Kong Ming back then, if we could meet ten years earlier, where would there be room for Xu Xun's kid to run rampant! ”
"My father-in-law is drunk."
Zhang Cai smiled slightly, but this time he didn't break free of Liu Jin's hand, but said lightly: "A certain person who has no virtue and no talent, how can he be compared to Zhuge Wuhou?" Moreover, please be cautious about this kind of words, otherwise if people hear that the father-in-law compares himself with Liu Bei, I am afraid that the gossip will be together, and the father-in-law will be in great trouble. ”
"Uh...... Also, our family was so happy that they forgot for a while! Liu Jin patted his head at this time, but he personally picked up the pot and poured a cup for Zhang Cai, and then said with a smile, "In this case, our family will give Mr. Xilu another cup!" ”
"Don't dare to be, thank you father-in-law!"
said this, but Zhang Cai was very bold, and drank the glass of wine straight with his neck up. In the face of such a style, Liu Jin was even happier in his heart, and drank two or three more cups in one go, and his face became even more red for a while. Just as he was burping, almost about to say to Zhang Cai that he would definitely push him to be the main exam, there was a sudden commotion outside, and immediately after, he saw Jiao Fang break in three steps and two steps.
"It's all this time, and my father-in-law is still interested in drinking and having fun?"
Liu Jin was about to frown and ask Jiao Fang how he came in, when he heard such a sentence, he was immediately unhappy, and immediately said angrily: "Our family has been working hard in the palace all day, and it is rare to come back today to invite Xilu to drink a few cups, what is the matter with you?" But you didn't even bother to report it and went straight to our house, and we haven't asked you what you want! ”
Jiao Fang knew that Liu Jin had always had such a temper towards people, and he didn't bother to care about that tone at the moment, staring at Zhang Cai, who was still pouring himself a drink, and shouted: "Zhang Cai, don't think that no one knows what you are thinking!" I think that Xu Xun has always been kind to you, and it is not Lin Han, Zhang Fuhua, Xie Duo, who comes and goes to Xu Mansion the most, but you Zhang Cai! I was thinking that you were good and dignified, but you came to join Gonggong Liu, but now I finally understand that you are clearly in Cao Ying's heart in Han, and you plan to give Xu Xun as an internal response! ”
Hearing the seven words in Cao Ying's heart and in Han, Zhang Cai was immediately happy. Before Liu Jin compared himself to Liu Bei and compared him to Kong Ming, but now Jiao Fang directly compared him to Xu Shu and Liu Jin to Cao Cao! Seeing Liu Jin, he was stunned all of a sudden. He said unhurriedly: "Elder Jiaoge, everyone says that you are not good at reading, and I still don't believe it, but today I have to say it." Did you use this allusion incorrectly? I think that Xu Shu forced Cao Cao to turn his back on Liu Tou Cao because of Cao Cao's mother, but he never planned for Cao Cao in his life, but what about me? Since the day I arrived at Gonggong Liu's mansion, how much have I planned and done? ”
Liu Jin suddenly thought of Zhang Cai's Chen, and the resolute investigation of the retired officials in the Ministry based on those Chen, Jiao Fang's previous words immediately caused ripples in his heart. And Jiao Fang faced Zhang Cai's sharp answer. I couldn't help but choke on it for a while. …,
However, since he was victorious, Zhang Cai naturally would not let go of the opportunity to pursue the victory, and immediately sneered: "But Jiao Ge Lao said that Pingbei Hou is not thin on me, and I never deny this." If it weren't for the Marquis of Pingbei, I would not have moved from Wenxuan Shilang to the imperial history of the capital, and then the right deputy capital of the imperial history, and now I am the servant of the ministry. Merely. Since the Marquis of Pingbei can't accept my means of changing the rule of officials, Gonggong Liu agreed. In that case, what if I change my door? Dare to ask Father-in-law Liu, since I am a frequent visitor to the Liu Mansion in this Shajia Hutong, have you ever said that Pingbei Hou is not the other? Have you ever said all the inside information that Pingbei Hou discussed with me in the past? Have you ever stabbed someone in the back? Never! ”
Liu Jin was stunned when he heard this, and then realized that since Zhang Cai became his own person, the other party did not say that he really had the idea of inquiring about the situation of the Xu Party from him, let alone asking. And just as he was groaning, Zhang Cai opened his mouth again.
"Besides, my father-in-law has ever heard of it. I used to be by Pingbeihou's side, but what did I plan for him? ”
Seeing that Liu Jin showed a more shaken expression this time, and seeing that Jiao Fang's expression revealed deeper suspicion and distrust, Zhang Cai suddenly smiled proudly.
thought that he was told to reverse the election method and angrily begged to go, and then because of the four things after the victory in Shacheng, he suddenly stood on the cusp. As a result, Zhu Houzhao praised him a few words, and let him return to Ren Langzhong in the Ministry of Literature and Literature, and after a long time, he learned that it was Xu Xun who sent his recital to the front of the palace. Then he met the assassin in the middle of the night, and after Li Yifeng saved him, he invited him to Beizhen Fusi, and at that time, Xu Xun actually rushed to Beizhen Fusi overnight and said a lot of heartfelt words to him. The soldier died for his confidant, probably, it was from that time that he sensed the sincerity of the other party, and since then he has planned for him many times when he joined his command, he has always been invisible behind the scenes without revealing a trace.
Therefore, when he Zhang Cai was by Xu Xun's side, even if he was promoted very quickly, more often than not, he was unknown! Because Xu Xun has been in the limelight since he entered the official career, which is enough to overshadow anyone's limelight, he has never had the intention to deliberately express himself!
"What's the matter, isn't Elder Jiao Ge unable to speak? In addition to writing a book and saying things fairly, what else did I plan for Pingbei Hou? Zhang Cai's words turned sharply, and he said like a storm, "Pingbei Hou is resourceful, so I follow his side, just to pick up the gaps for Zhang Shihua Lin Han and others, just like I did for Ma Butang in the past, and now Liu Gonggong relies on me as his heart, I am naturally not afraid of being the target of the public, and I am wholeheartedly planning for him." My father-in-law treats me as a national soldier, and I should repay him as a national soldier! ”
"What a retribution!"
Liu Jin finally felt that the doubts in his heart suddenly broke through, and he immediately took the case. Seeing Jiao Fang's face darkened, he said coldly: "Old Jiao, our family saw that you had a relationship with our family in your early years, so we have always treated you very differently, but this time you are indiscriminately spewing blood, which is really too much!" Your son was humiliated by Xu Xun, you came to our family to cry at that time, our family was very hesitant, Xilu did say a few words, but our family felt that he was not wrong! Regardless of Jiao Huangzhong's talent, he was scolded by Xu Xun with just a few words and fell down directly, what kind of intention is this? If our family fights Xu Xun for this, we must not be laughed at to death? Also, you have recommended a lot of people to our family, how many people have accepted bribes, and how many talents can be used? ”
"Father-in-law Liu, this is Zhang Cai's ......"
"You recommended people to recommend those private things not Zhang Xilu said!" Liu Jin interrupted Jiao Fang's words impatiently, and then sat down again, his expression became colder and colder, "Our family sees that you and our family are the first, and they have always saved face for you, so they don't bother to question you because of a few people, but who knew that you were so intolerant, jealous and jealous that you could come directly to our house to find a place, and you are really not afraid of people's jokes!" Now that Wang Wei is going to be unable to hold on, you have this idle time, it is better to think about how to fight with Li Dongyang in the ring. It's not too early, you go back! ”
has been back and forth to Liu's Mansion so many times, Jiao Fang has not seen Liu Jin unceremoniously give an order to expel people without saying a word, even if an official like Liu Yu and Cao Yuan is no exception, he has always been glad that he is the one who is unexpected. However, at this moment, when it was his turn to accept such treatment, he only felt choked in his heart, but under Liu Jin's clear disgusted gaze, he really didn't know how to fight again. Seeing Zhang Cai looking at him with pity, he suddenly understood the anger and pain of his son when he was scolded by Xu Xun.
