Li Shangshu wants to seize power, Yan Ge Lao naturally will not sit still, Yan Shifan waved his banner, and went to Li Mo's private residence in the yamen of the ministry, set up a lot of eyeliner and ears, and watched his daily life and actions night and night, and knew his every move well. I have long known that on the first day of this year's deliberations, the opponent will start with Zhao Wenhua and launch an all-out offensive against his own side.

The father and son of the Yan family know very well that the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty are waiting to see the fate of Zhao Wenhua, he is now like the banner of the Yan Party, if he is cut down, the hearts of the Yan Party will be scattered, and it will be difficult to resist the other party's offensive, so they must grit their teeth and resist this period to protect Zhao Wenhua, who is not angry.

This is an impossible task for others, don't forget that Zhu Kun, Zhang Jing, and Li Tianpet were all put down by the same crime, that is, 'bullying the king', it can be seen that His Majesty Jiajing, who is stubborn and self-serving, hates this article the most.

But Li Mo's methods of harming people are not as good as the Yan family's father and son...... He was too anxious...... If you don't involve Zhao Wenhua first, just poke out the southeast woes, then the extremely smart Emperor Jiajing will naturally think of the big joke of 'success on land and water, Haiyan River is clear', you must know that the emperor believed it at that time, personally went to the temple to pray for the ancestors, and burned the letter to the ancestors.

In that case, Emperor Jiajing will definitely hate Zhao Wenhua, who made him lose face in front of his ancestors, will do him after a while. And if he didn't attack Zhao Wenhua directly, Yan Song had no way to defend it, so he could only watch this flag being pulled out, so this was the safest way.

But now that Li Mo has involved Zhao Wenhua, especially the 'Haiyan Heqing' recital, things have changed for the worse, because he forgot that Emperor Jiajing had just praised Zhao Wenhua to the whole world and the ancestors, and also promoted him to the secretary of the Ministry of Works, and added the title of prince and princess, just like Yan Song reminded 'The emperor trusts him, and he is crowned an official and promoted to a knight, and thousands of graces are added to him. If only a month has passed, Jiajing will knock him down again, which is tantamount to slapping himself hard, which is very difficult and difficult for Emperor Jiajing, who has a big face.

Yan Ge has served Jiajing, the eccentric emperor, for 20 years, and has already figured out his temper and surname, as well as all kinds of power tricks. accurately grasped the subtle psychological changes of Emperor Jiajing, so he prescribed the right medicine, which could naturally cure the disease!

In fact, his methods are very simple...... Since the emperor is hesitating, then I will first slander Zhao Wenhua according to the emperor's intentions, and scold him to the fullest, it seems that I can't solve the emperor's hatred without a thousand knives to punish the nine clans! If this method is used on ordinary bosses, then Zhao Wenhua will definitely die.

But our Emperor Jiajing is not an ordinary person, he has a characteristic that he is rigid and self-serving...... When I was the first to go to both ends, I like to wring it with people, you say to the west, I want to go east, you say to catch the chicken, I want to catch the duck. This perverted temper should have been cultivated in that great ritual discussion that lasted for more than ten years...... Even the emperor himself did not realize that working against the courtiers had become part of his surname, and it had not changed for decades.

And Yan Song grasped this psychology a long time ago, and was good at peeking on the emperor's intentions, so as to control the emperor's joy and anger. If he wants to frame a person in front of Jiajing, he must first praise that person, and then without fireworks, as if he has unintentionally mentioned that the other party's words and deeds touch the emperor's disgust and taboo, it will inevitably provoke the emperor's anger, and immediately blame the people and never forgive.

On the contrary, if he wants to save people, he will be like now, first according to the emperor's will to slander him, as if he does not inflict capital punishment on him and cannot solve the emperor's hatred, until the emperor thinks it is too much and gives birth to a heart of forbearance, Song will change his tone and speak well, so that Emperor Jiajing can listen to the ears and feel comfortable, and suddenly the big things can be turned into small things, and the small things can be turned into nothing.

This is one of Yan Song's secret weapons that stands tall like a tumbler. Over the past ten years, we have tried and tested many times, and I don't know how many loyal and virtuous people have died unjustly, and I don't know how many wicked people have escaped punishment and continued to do evil under their wings.

Therefore, Shen Lian impeached Yan Song for 'serving His Majesty's joy and anger and stealing the power of the king', and he did not wronged him at all!

Sure enough, Emperor Jiajing unknowingly fell into the trap, he felt that Yan Song was going to lose his pawn to protect the car when he saw that something was wrong, and he actually felt a trace of pity for Zhao Wenhua in his heart...... Although he was resentful of Zhao Wenhua's lying about the peace and cheating, after all, Zhao Wenhua was the only one in the Manchu Dynasty's civil and military affairs, and he took the initiative to give up the comfortable life of Zhongming Dingshi in the capital, and went to the south of the Yangtze River to suppress the Japanese, and he went for nearly two years.

Emperor Jiajing felt that such a minister who was "willing to endure hardships" and "willing to sacrifice" even though he was a little braggadocio and magnified the problem of the cannon...... It's okay to punish him, but how can he even erase all the credit and beat him to death with a stick? Moreover, after listening to Shen Mo's vivid explanation of 'governing a big country is like cooking a small fresh', the emperor already knew in his heart that he was not really angry.

After making up his mind, Emperor Jiajing slowly got up, walked down the imperial steps, sat on Yan Song's brocade pier, looked at the old Shoufu who was kneeling on the ground and said, "The old Shoufu is a little unkind, right?" Although Zhao Wenhua is a little unworthy of the name, but in the two years in Jiangnan, he has eaten and slept in the open air, and he still has saddle horses, and he has won more than 20 battles in a big and small way, and he has more hard work and a lot of credit. ”

Yan Song couldn't help but be secretly happy when he saw the emperor in his set, but he didn't dare to show a little, and sighed with a face: "The emperor is as broad-minded as the sea, he is really a benevolent emperor who has never been seen in the past dynasties, and the courtiers can serve His Majesty, which is really a blessing from the cultivation of three lives!" He first sent out a high hat, and his expression turned to shame just right, and he examined himself: "Then Zhao Wenhua learned of the Southeast Incident, he was worried and terrified, and wanted to ask to see His Majesty to ask for guilt, but he didn't dare to disturb Shengshang Qingxiu, so he ran to Weichen......" Saying that, he squeezed out a few tears, with the wrinkled old face, quite a sense of sadness with old tears, only to hear him choke up: "Weichen is not as good as Your Majesty, not only did he not think of the merits he had made, but also blindly blamed him for 'falsely reporting the results of the battle, impetuous and unbearable', and even angry and vicious words, completely ignoring the relationship between father and son...... At that time, I felt that I was blindly loyal and selfless, but now I was touched by His Majesty's benevolence, and I realized that I was really too biased...... "Do a full set of plays, and after speaking, I cried and asked for punishment."

After all, he is an old man for more than 20 years, and even a dog has feelings, Emperor Jiajing couldn't bear to say: "Don't you help Shoufu up?" ”

Huang Jin and Xu Jie hurriedly stepped forward and helped Yan Ge Lao, who was crying miserably, to help him up, Emperor Jiajing got up and pointed to Jindun, and the two helped Yan Song to sit down.

Emperor Jiajing held his hands and looked at the broken sky outside the window lattice, where a group of pigeons flew by, and the melodious pigeon whistle made the emperor feel much better, he said leisurely: "The bell must be tied to the bell, who owes the famine who will pay it, let Zhao Wenhua go down to the southeast again." ”

Hearing the emperor say this, Yan Song cried with joy, and took out a letter from his sleeve tremblingly and said: "Your Majesty, there is a chapter from Zhao Wenhua asking to be the governor of the southeast again!" ”

"Oh?" Jiajing didn't look back, just looked at the sky, and said lightly: "Read!" ”

Yan Song smiled bitterly: "The old minister is dazzled, let's ask Huang Gonggong to help read it." ”

Huang Jin saw Jiajing nodding, then took it, unfolded the recital, and said, "...... The Japanese invaders are entrenched overseas, advance and retreat freely, gather and disperse from time to time, and it is very difficult to capture. If you want to win the battle, you need to be in harmony with the commanders and work together. However, Yang Yi, the governor of the southeast, is not convinced by the public, incompetent and incompetent, partial and narrow-minded, and jealous of the virtuous; Hu Zongxian, the governor of Zhejiang, and Yu Dayou, the general soldier of Su Song, although they had the talent of Le Yi and Sun Wu, they were restrained by them, and they were constrained everywhere, and it was difficult to exert them, so that the enemy could take advantage of the weakness to enter. Otherwise, why did the ministers only return to the court for a few months, and the people of the southeast were once again devastated by the Japanese invaders? ”

"Weichen is a mediocre talent, and the emperor will not give up, and he will always think about the liver and brain, in order to repay the king's kindness. Seeing that the Japanese were rampant, the monarch's father was worried, the ministers were unable to sleep and eat, and they thought about it again and again, and dared to implore the emperor to depose Yang Yi in order to free himself from the shackles of Zhejiang's civil and military affairs, so that the upper and lower levels could work together to completely pacify the southeast! Wechen is not talented, please go out again! The minister guarantees with his family name that within three years, there will be no more Japanese robbers in the thousands of miles of Haijiang, and His Majesty will be returned to the real Haiyan River! The criminal minister Zhao Wenhua cried blood and worshipped. ”

Emperor Jiajing listened silently, and there were no pigeons in the sky, so he turned around and said lightly: "Why didn't you take it out earlier?" ”

"Discussing sins is discussing sins, if you take out this invitation to play the chapter, it is inevitable that there will be a suspicion of interfering with the holy judgment, and Weichen will never dare." Yan Song said nonsense...... In fact, when the emperor's anger was not yet gone, it was useless to take out this thing. Only at this time can the final word be finalized and you can bite back. Yan Ge Lao's grasp of the heat is indeed perfect, and he is more than one grade stronger than Li Mo.

After pondering for a while, Emperor Jiajing asked the two first-class officials, "What do the two Qing family think?" ”

Xu Jie simply didn't open his mouth, because he knew that Li Mo would definitely refute impatiently, and sure enough, he heard him say in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, absolutely not!" ”
