After making up his mind, Lu Bing said softly: "Judging from the silent report, Zhang Jing is indeed relatively timid, and his talents are average, and he is also a little greedy for enjoyment. But he did do some facts, such as since he took office, all prefectures and counties have strengthened their city defenses, and there has never been a tragedy of being breached and slaughtered. And although the army was not trained by him personally, it was after all a recruitment order from him......"

While saying this, he peeked at Emperor Jiajing, and Lu Bing saw that his face was cloudy, and his heart became afraid, and his voice became smaller and smaller.

Jiajing looked at him with a smile and said, "What do you want to explain?" ”

Lu Bing swallowed and foamed, and whispered: "Zhang Jing's problem...... It's a matter of ability, not attitude. This was the elixir he had learned from the silence.

Jiajing's long narrow eyes flickered, and he sneered: "How much did Xu Jie give you?" ”

Lu Bing hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed, and called out to hit the sky and said: "That old man Xu Jie, who is a well-known poor official, I am afraid that except for His Majesty's mansion, there is nothing of value." ”

I thought that if I said this, the emperor would finish it, but who knew that Jiajing said again: "Could it be King Yu?" ”

Lu Bing smiled at this time, raised his head and said, "Your Majesty, the prince will not beg me if he begs anyone." "Emperor Jiajing has a lot of sons, but now there are only two alive, King Yu is older, King Jing is younger, but the prince has not been established for a long time, and the open and secret struggle between the two can be imagined. With King Jing on the sidelines, King Yu will never come into contact with the emperor's number one cronie, even if he dies a hundred Zhang Jing.

"Then are you salty and eating radishes and eating lightly, are you bored?" Jiajing also laughed and scolded: "Say, what do you mean?" ”

Lu Bing said solemnly: "Although I can't wait to kill Zhang Jing, Weichen feels that it is always better to be cautious in dealing with the commander after a big victory." lest people who don't know the truth chew the root of their tongues and add chaos to the southeast. ”

Jiajing shook his head and said: "You didn't read Zhao Wenhua's recital, he said, 'After the wolf soldiers arrived, Zhang Jing still didn't fight, and the people hated him to death', killing Zhang Jing can only be very happy." ”

Lu Bingdao: "What about the wolf soldiers?" "He pointed to the most powerful sentence on the silent recital: 'The surname of the soldier is ruthless, so he is called the wolf soldier, which is both a pawn and a bandit, and only Zhang Jing can barely control it.'

"What is this...... Jiajing seemed to be moved, and he seemed to be relieved, he waved his hand and said, "Let me think about it." ”

The sky gradually darkened, the little eunuch lit the lamps and candles in the side hall, and the scholars sat on their chairs, some were reading, some were reading, some were closing their eyes to recuperate, and some were losing their minds...... The emperor didn't let them go, and they waited here for a day, not knowing when they would be able to go home.

It was Yan Song who closed his eyes and recuperated, and with his many years of understanding of the emperor, he knew that no one could afford to turn over the wind and waves, so he was relieved to go.

It was Xu Jie, who was distracted, as soon as he woke up and saw the two manuscripts, he knew that Zhang Jing was finished, and his good life was finally over...... If you cry out for Zhang Jing, Xia Yan is a lesson from the past. He clearly remembered that the world thought that Zeng Yan was wronged, and Xia Yan was extremely innocent, but the emperor who was stubborn and self-serving not only killed Zeng Miao, but also killed Xia Yan.

The scene of the head falling to the ground was reflected in front of his eyes, which made Xu Jie drenched, and a realization rose in his heart - either stick to the principle and accompany Zhang Jing to die, or give up the principle to steal life alone.

'You have to live, you have to live to have hope. As if comforting himself, Xu Jie paralyzed himself. He was well aware of the consequences of doing so...... Everyone knows that Zhang Banzhou is his Xu Huating's person. However, at this critical moment, Xu Jie gave up trusting his subordinates. All people will despise him as a person who is Xu Jie, and see him as a villain who is completely greedy for life and afraid of death, and selfish.

He could already foresee that the clear streams gathered around him would disperse with ridicule and contempt, and would no longer be with him. What's even more terrifying is that the emperor's favor will also be transferred back to Yan Song. Let him face the incomparably powerful Yan Party alone, as well as the terrifying Jinyi Guard.

The cruel truth educated Xu Jie, and he finally understood that in front of the Yan family's father and son, the two thick black masters, his skills were still too far behind. For half a day, he didn't eat a drop of water, and his whole person was in a state of confusion, helplessly waiting for the emperor's sentence.

Finally, Lu Dudu, whose face was as heavy as water, came out of the main hall and said in a low voice: "Ladies and gentlemen, Your Majesty has summoned you. ”

Yan Song threw him an inquiring glance, Lu Bing nodded slightly, and then turned to leave.

Xu Jie, like a walking corpse, followed Yan Song into the main hall, and heard the emperor's cold voice say: "The original governors are overwhelmed, so the princes should nominate a successor." ”

Xu Jie chuckled in his heart, knowing that what he had just expected was true, he was about to die of sadness, knelt on the ground with his hands propped up, and said in a trembling voice: "Your Majesty, do you wait for Zhang Jing to return to Beijing, and then make a decision after asking in person?" "It can be delayed for a day, this is also the last thing he can do for Zhang Jing.

Jiajing snorted coldly and said, "For your sake, I won't kill him anymore, aren't you still satisfied?" ”

Xu Jie's mouth can be stuffed with a duck egg at once, and Yan Gelao's mouth is relatively large, so he can stuff a goose egg into it, and both of them have a look of disbelief...... Everyone has been playing with the emperor for all these years, and they know that this is not a benevolent king, they will only put people to death, and they don't know what it means to 'keep people under the knife'.

After all, Xu Jie's young age and his brain reacted faster, and before Yan Ge Lao could close his mouth, he kowtowed to the emperor heavily, and said with tears like rain: "Your Majesty is benevolent......" Nail the last nail to the board, so that Yan Song couldn't stir it anymore.

Yan Ge Lao was clear about the emperor's temper, and when he saw the faint light in his eyes, he knew that this was the final decision. I couldn't help but wonder in my heart: 'How can you not finish the whole work?' However, although they didn't let them hold hands and go to the execution ground as expected, at least if Zhang Jing was taken down, Xu Jie would also be greatly implicated, which was not satisfactory.

Now let's enjoy the taste of victory, Xu Jie is completely wilted, no one can fight with him, Yan Song said slowly: "The old minister thinks that Zhao Wenhua has the merit of supervising the battle in this battle, Hu Zongxian has the merit of co-ordination, and the two get along well...... Let's just let them keep going. ”

"Nope." The emperor refused, he really didn't dare to imagine what would happen to the southeast if he let Zhao Wenhua's fool become the governor. Seeing that Yan Ge Lao was looking at him pitifully, Jiajing thought of a reason and said: "Beijing can't do without Zhao Wenhua, and after a while, when the new governor takes office, I will recruit him back to be the chief secretary." "Da Sikong is the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, in charge of various projects across the country...... Zhao Wenhua was originally the waiter of the Ministry of Industry, and now it can be regarded as a correction. But after overthrowing Zhang Jing, Zhao Shilang is the actual boss of the southeast, but he was transferred back to Beijing to do this contract foreman, what is it if it is not a bright rise and a secret fall?

Yan Song's heart suddenly dawned, he felt a little frustrated, but he didn't dare to show it, but said with a smile: "Since Your Majesty is reluctant to Zhao Wenhua, then Weichen really can't think of a suitable candidate." ”

The emperor looked at the three 'Standing Pile University Scholars' again, and the three of them really just shook their heads, saying that there was no suitable candidate, and no one dared to provoke Yan Ge Lao.

"What about Xu Qing's family?" The emperor turned his gaze to Xu Jie, and asked the cabinet assistant in the fifth place: "Do you have a suitable candidate?" ”

Facing the second chance like a pie in the sky, Xu Jie took a deep breath and tried to calm down and said: "Zhou Xuan, the governor of Su Song, once said that the imperial widow has 'ten difficulties and three strategies', and he has been at the forefront of the southeast anti-Japanese war for a long time, and he is also very experienced, so he is recommended by Wei Chen. ”

"That's right." The emperor waved his sleeves and said: "Let Hu Zongxian be his deputy, and he will be immediately promoted to the governor of Zhejiang." ”

"Zhang Jing and Li Tianzhong are greedy for life and afraid of death, and they should have been beheaded to set an example. But the emperor has the virtue of a good life, and if Nian'er has a little hard work, he can cut his nationality to the people, repatriate his hometown, and never use it! ”

"Lu Bo was promoted to the general army of Zhejiang, Yu Dayou was promoted to the general soldier of Su Song, and the rest of the generals who participated in the war were promoted to one level, and those who made great contributions were promoted to two levels."

"The Zhejiang inspector made him silent and hardworking and diligent; Do not avoid arrows, loyal and keen, I am very comforted. He was specially given to wear a unicorn suit, and served as a patrol and supervisor of the military road in Zhejiang. ”

Chrysostom is a holy decree. Xu Jie immediately drafted the edict, Li Fang used the seal on behalf of the sky, and then sent it to the southeast to create a super earthquake.

Looking at the ministers and eunuchs who came out of the stream. A sneer hung on the corner of Emperor Jiajing's mouth, looking so unfathomable.

In fact, Xu Jie didn't have to worry at all, even if Zhang Jing was really killed, his status would not be affected in the slightest.

For no matter how noisy you are, I am a calm bystander and the final arbiter. Emperor Jiajing said in a silent voice: "There is only one master in this world, and there will be no second one." ’

After feeling good about himself for a while, Emperor Jiajing got up with his sleeves and went back to Yuxi Palace to cultivate.

"Why is that?" In the governor's mansion, Yan Shifan forced Lu Bingdao: "Why did the emperor suddenly calm down?" ”

Lu Dudu said calmly: "I didn't say a word that was unfavorable to your family, and I have been scolding that Zhang Jing to death." ”

Yan Shifan stomped his feet and said, "Didn't you keep silent?" All you have to do is say that's pretty much it. ”

Lu Bing said strangely: "I said Brother Donglou, I am dedicated to helping you with things, but His Majesty suddenly changed his mind, how can you blame me?" ”

Yan Shifan said angrily: "As soon as you help us talk, Your Majesty thinks that his number one cronie has also become a member of my Yan family, can you still be wary of us?" He said with a sip and said, "Damn, it's cheap Xu Jie's old boy." And he went away in indignation.

After he left, Shen Lian turned out from behind the tent and arched his hand: "Lord Xie returns to protect the inferior disciples." ”

"He helped me, and I naturally want to repay it." Lu Bing waved his hand and smiled.

Shen Lian nodded, looked at the far south, and said softly: "In the future, adults will have to worry more. ”

"No problem." Lu Bing smiled: "I have identified this junior brother. But he didn't see the determination in Shen Lian's eyes.
