Chapter 301: Try the Depth Again
After a brief reinstatement with the ministers, Xiao Fan was pulled into the pavilion by Ru Yu, who looked left and right, put his mouth to Xiao Fan's ear and whispered.
Since the last time Xiao Fan carried out a bomb terrorist attack on Ji Gang, Ji Gang has been honest for a while, and during that time, he has walked around the road when he met with the annihilators of the DPRK and China, for fear that if he has a bad attitude, he will throw a black and smoking bomb from which corner, the DPRK and China will exclude dissidents, and the speed of planting cronies has also been greatly slowed down, in the final analysis, Ji Gang still has a psychological shadow on Xiao Fan, he understands Xiao Fan's weight in the heart of the Son of Heaven, Xiao Fan sent him a bomb to tell him clearly, you Ji Gang provoked me to be unhappy, It would be unwise to provoke him again at this time.
So Ji Gang shifted the focus of his work, and the focus was on Zhu Yunwen, he knew his status, a self-made person in the court, he could have no power and no ability, but he must have eyesight, only by hugging Zhu Yunwen's thighs, Ji Gang could be invincible in the court, the power of the previous dynasties, such as Cai Jing, Tong Guan, Jia Nidao, Qin Hui, etc., all relied on the emperor's favor and dominated the court, and the struggle of the predecessors of the annihilation gave Ji Gang a lot of inspiration, so Ji Gang painted a gourd in the same way, decided to shoot Zhu Yunwen's sycophants, Zhu Yunwen was happy, and he Ji Gang was also cool.
Patting sycophants is also a technical job, if you shoot well, you will soar for a lifetime, and if you don't shoot well, you will never get ahead.
Ji Gang is a self-taught master in this aspect, and he knows very well what a young emperor needs.
An emperor has the supreme power of the world, and has abundant money, what else does he need?
Of course, only women are needed.
From ancient times to the present, the relationship between power, wealth, and beauty is inseparable.
So Ji Gang slapped Zhu Yunwen with a heavyweight sycophant, contacted a group of cronies who had just been installed in the court, and jointly asked Zhu Yunwen for a decree, for the continuation of the bloodline of the heavenly family, the descendants spread out and asked Zhu Yunwen to make a decree to enter the palace.
Zhu Yunwen is a simple-minded emperor, but he is also a normal man with strong energy, and the ministers jointly wrote to him to be the groom every night, of course he will not object. Instead of objecting, he was very happy, under the poke of Ji Gang, Zhu Yunwen felt that he was really a saint, and the courtiers wrote to ask the emperor for draft, which showed that his harem was very unfulfilling, and the emperor with few wives was a good emperor.
is very simple and simple logic, Ji Gang's sycophant shot just to the point.
Therefore, Zhu Yunwen not only happily accepted Ji Gang's suggestion, but also made Ji Gang an earl under the joy of Long Yan.
Ji Gang, who took advantage of this incident to become one of the nobles of the Ming Dynasty, suddenly felt that he had grown a little bolder, and he suddenly had an epiphany about officialdom.
Ji Gang's self-confidence began to swell again, he felt that Xiao Fan was actually not so terrible, Xiao Fan and the Son of Heaven can have such a deep friendship, I am afraid that Xiao Fan did everything possible to pat the Son of Heaven, Xiao Fan's only advantage is that he knew the Son of Heaven earlier than himself, thinking of this, Xiao Fan in Ji Gang's eyes, who could not be looked up to like a mountain, suddenly became a lot shorter, and was temporarily shocked by Xiao Fan's intimidation.
On the way back to Beijing with Xiao Fan's army, Ji Gang once again stretched out his hand to annihilate the party as the deputy commander of Jinyiwei, he was not convinced, he must try Xiao Fan's depth.
Half a month before Xiao Fan entered Beijing, Wang Yu was arrested and imprisoned by Jinyi Wei on the charge of "greedy ink treasury".
As we all know, Yu Xin, the head of the household, is a member of the annihilation party, when Emperor Hongwu was alive, Yu Xin and Xiao Fan were very close, and Wang Yu, the left servant of the household department, is not only a subordinate of Yu Xin, but also has a very good relationship with Yu Xin in private, it can be said that Wang Yu is a member of the annihilation of the party, Ji Gang will arrest Wang Yu, the Manchu Dynasty civil and military are in an uproar, Ji Gang's move, undoubtedly shows that he openly declared war on Xiao Fan to the party.
On the second day of the arrest of Wang Yu, Ji Gang made a presentation to Zhu Yunwen, and his fellow villager and confidant Mu Su was immediately appointed as the left servant of the household department, and his tentacles were stretched out more and more, and the six departments of the central government had cultivated many comrades, and their momentum was no worse than Xiao Fan's annihilation of the party.
The annihilation of the party panicked again, again and again, again and again, Ji Gang is determined to get along with the annihilation party, this person's spleen is tyrannical, he will be revenged, the means are cruel, there is quite a momentum of "those who oppose me die", the court that has just been calm for a long time, with Ji Gang's series of actions, the atmosphere began to become tense again.
This is also the reason why Xiao Fan just arrived outside the capital today, and those ministers hugged Xiao Fan and cried darkly.
Ru Yu wiped her tears while aggrievedly explaining some of the things that had happened in the Jingshi court recently, and then stared at Xiao Fan with burning eyes, and the help and expectation in her eyes were obvious.
"Ji Gang is so domineering?" Xiao Fan's brows furrowed.
Ru Yu cried and said with a sad face: "The arrogance is unstoppable, just yesterday, Lian Zining, the servant of the ministry, accidentally collided with Ji Gang's carriage, and was pulled down by him and beat Lian Zining ten big boards, beating the skin and flesh, and he died, and Chen Di, the official of the ministry, was so angry that he almost fell ill......"
Xiao Fan's face became more and more gloomy.
Ru Yu glanced at him and said cautiously: "My lord, where is Ji Gang beating Lian Zining's ass, it's just a slap in the face......"
Xiao Fan: "............"
Ru Yu hurriedly slapped herself a little in the mouth, and said with a smile: "The lower official lost his words, he lost his words, and the adults forgive ...... sin."
Xiao Fan snorted and said, "You don't need to poke the fire and Ji Gang to break their wrists, what to do is known to the official, this matter must be considered in the long run." ”
"Yes, yes, yes."
The two were talking in the Ten Mile Pavilion, but suddenly heard a chaotic sound of horses' hooves.
The ministers wanted to complain to Xiao Fan, most of them were still standing outside the pavilion, and when they heard the sound of horses' hooves, everyone couldn't help but turn their heads to look, but they saw that on the official road outside the city, more than ten knights were beating horses and galloping, and the yellow dust was raised behind them, which was quite domineering.
It wasn't until this group of knights reined in front of everyone that everyone saw that the person who was the leader was Ji Gang.
At this time, the ministers were frightened and bowed to Xiao Fan one after another.
Xiao Fan smiled in return, and when he turned his head, his eyes had narrowed slightly, looking at Ji Gang, who was wearing a unicorn brocade robe and a sarong official hat, approaching.
Before the person approached, Ji Gang laughed before he spoke, and his voice was like a loud bell: "Haha, Grandpa Guo returned to Beijing triumphantly, and the door greeted him late, please forgive Grandpa Guo!" ”
Xiao Fan's smile remained unchanged, and his tone said indifferently: "Lord Ji is polite, your lord is the deputy commander of Jinyi Guard, and he is already a high authority, when the holy family is in his prime, how dare the prince of the country call himself Lord Ji's 'disciple' again?" ”
Ji Gang smiled and said solemnly with a very sincere expression: "Although Ji does not know how to write and ink, he also knows the way of loyalty and righteousness. ”
Xiao Fan sighed secretly, when he sent a bomb to Ji Gang and blew up half of his house, such a naked intimidation, Ji Gang even went out of the city to greet him, as if he had completely forgotten that matter, and his attitude was as affectionate as a brother who had reunited after a long absence, which of course does not mean that Ji Gang is a magnanimous person, on the contrary, the more casual it is, the more it means that Ji Gang has taken this matter to heart, such a scheming city government is too terrible.
Xiao Fan's vigilance against Ji Gang became more and more heightened at this moment, but he cheered up and smiled: "This time, that time, in the past, you and I joked, why take it seriously?" ”
Ji Gang's eyes flashed, and then he laughed and said: "Grandpa Guo is sympathetic to his subordinates, this is the blessing of the lower officials, and in the future, the grandpa of the country will make a difference, and the lower officials are willing to go to the soup." ”
Between the two sentences, the self-title of "under the door" has logically changed to "under the official".
The two of them each have deep meanings, you come and I greet each other, Ru Yu stands aside with a smiling face, and interjects from time to time to make a few finishing touches, which is really worthy of the reputation of the old oilman in the officialdom, on the surface, Ru Yu and Ji Gang are also as good as brothers, and they are extremely affectionate.
Standing in the pavilion and chatting for a long time, Ji Gang gave his hand.
Xiao Fan waved to the guards outside the pavilion, and then said very enthusiastically: "Master Ji, my lord brought you some local products from the north, which are rare in the south, you ......"
Before he finished speaking, Ji Gang's face changed greatly, and he lost his voice: "It's a local specialty again?" ”
"Well, a real specialty, a good thing......"
Ji Gang's face turned pale instantly, and he hurriedly smiled and said: "The lower official still has official business to do, and the grandfather of the country has come from afar, so the lower official will not be delayed......"
After speaking, Ji Gang hurriedly rode on his horse and led a group of brocade-clothed guards to flee for their lives.
Xiao Fan asked Ru Yu in confusion: "Why is he so nervous?" Sending him some local products is like asking for his life, what does it mean? ”
Ru Yu smiled bitterly, didn't you also say that it was a northern specialty when you sent him a black bomb last time? With the last time, who would dare to accept your specialties from the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty?
Ru Yu explained the reason with a smile, Xiao Fan was stunned for a while, and said with a long sigh: "I would have set my heart on Mingyue...... Hey, Lord Ru, what I brought this time is really a northern specialty, if Lao Shangshu is interested......"
Ru Yu was startled, her fat body jumped back very agilely, and said in a trembling voice: "Thank you!" Xia Guan is also not interested in special products......"
Xiao Fan felt very regretful, and all of them looked at him as if he was a terrorist...... Staring at Ji Gang's distant back, the smile on Ru Yufei's face gradually turned into a sneer.
"Sir, do you see? Laughing at the knife in front of his face, Ji Gang's hypocrisy has reached home, this kind of person actually lives in the temple in a dignified manner, and it is a shame for the old man to be a minister in the same hall with him......"
Xiao Fanqi squinted at him: "Is Lao Shangshu talking about Ji Gang, or is it talking about yourself?" ”
Ru Yu said awe-inspiringly: "Of course I mean him!" How could the old man be as hypocritical as him? …… My lord, it's good for you to come back now, what are you going to do next? ”
Xiao Fan touched his chin and said slowly: "Next, next...... Of course, it's to go home and reunite with my wife. ”
"Huh? This...... Of course, this is of course, the adults have been away from home for a long time, of course, they have to go home to reunite with their wives and children, and the lower official means that they will ...... to that Ji Gang in the future."
Xiao Fan smiled, his smile was a little cold: "I can only talk about it later, now that I have returned to Beijing, I can't let others ride on our heads, take mine, send me back, eat mine, spit it out for me!" ”
Xiao Fan took Cao Yi and Zhang Sanfeng, Taixu two centenarians, and dozens of guards, and the group galloped towards the city, as for Zhu Di and his family, who were captured alive and returned to Beijing, they were already escorted back to the city, and since then they have been under house arrest in the courtyard of the Beijing Division, and they are not allowed to go out for half a step.
Xiao Fan entered the city, looked at the familiar streets of Jingshi, and the people and pedestrians shuttling back and forth, as if even the air was so familiar, and endured the strong homecoming in his heart**, Xiao Fan and his party went to the Yamen of the Ministry of War first, and handed over the duties and seals of the chief military officer to the officials of the Yamen.
The battle of Pingyan has ended, and this chief military officer can be regarded as having completed his merits, so naturally he can no longer hang the handsome seal on his body, in this era of military power is very sensitive, some things must be paid attention to at all times, lest the battle is over,——, and you still hold on to the military power and do not let go, what do you mean?
After handing over the handover of the handover seal, Xiao Fan finally breathed a sigh of relief, under the flattery of the officials of the Ministry of War, Xiao Fan went out of the Yamen of the Ministry of War, not far from the Yamen is the Jinyi Wei Zhenfu Division, Xiao Fan hesitated after getting on the horse, thinking that the current Jinyi Wei may have been mastered by Ji Gang a lot, and the degree of personnel fighting in it is not slightly inferior to the Golden Palace of the Imperial Hall, Xiao Fan sighed and shook his head, and finally did not go to the Zhenfu Division, and turned the horse and galloped home.
The horse was not in a hurry to the familiar door of the house, Xiao Fan saw a group of Xiao Mansion people standing outside the door standing on tiptoe and looking forward from a distance, seeing Xiao Fan coming, everyone was overjoyed, and hurriedly stepped forward, kowtowing, leading the horse, busy and happy.
Xiao Fan let go of his heart, laughed, dismounted, and strode towards the door.
The plaque of "Chengyi Marquis Mansion" above the gate has been taken off, thinking that the will of the Son of Heaven to enshrine Xiao Fan as the Duke of the country has been transmitted to the family, so the people took off the plaque and planned to replace it with a new one.
Xiao Fan walked in quickly through the side door, and as soon as he stepped into the threshold, a small delicate figure was thrown into his arms like a fast arrow off the string, and the little head was like an awl, drilling hard in his arms, as if she wanted to melt herself into Xiao Fan's body.
Xiao Fan felt a wave of warmth in his heart, wrapped his arms around, and hugged the thrush in his arms tightly.
Nearly a year away from home, the little girl thrush has grown a lot taller, the originally dry and thin delicate body has become much plump, and the size of the crisp breasts is much larger than before.
Well, the cabbage is ripe and can be arched......
