The old Yan Song who walked in front of him didn't look at them, and only cared about talking to Xu Jie: "Shaosheng, today the emperor's court is discussing the matter of the Japanese slaves, Yang Bo retired to the squire, and the military department is usually in charge of you, how are you going to deal with Hu Zongxian?" ”

Xu Jie knew that this was Yan Song's deliberate test of himself, and thought about it: "The southeast mountains are high and dense, and the Japanese slaves live here, and they are already armed and aggressive, and the local officials have no virtue of making a good living, and they are exploited, so that the people are not happy, and the Japanese slaves are bold and reckless, leading the traitors to repeatedly kill the officials of the Son of Heaven, attacking the city and robbing the village, and it has been many years now. The local governor asked for soldiers and salaries for many years, and the court agreed to allocate them one by one, and now millions of taels of silver have been consumed, but the Japanese slaves are being suppressed more and more. It can be seen that Hu Zongxian's ability to do things should naturally be dealt with strictly! ”

Yan Song nodded, glanced at Xia Mu vaguely, and his wrinkled face twitched: "This is the reason, but the Japanese slaves are in danger, 50,000 officers and soldiers have been suppressed for three years, and they have lost their own troops, but they have not hurt a single hair of the Japanese slaves, and this is not entirely Hu Zongxian's fault!" ”

"This is an improper use of people," Xu Jie did not give Yan Song any face, since he had already torn his face, there was no need to set up an archway and pretend to be a watch, but said decisively, "The governor of the southeast should be re-appointed, hasn't Your Majesty already let Tan Yan act as an agent." ”

Yan Song immediately became vigilant: "Do you think Tan Theory is better than Hu Zongxian?" ”

Xu Jie lowered his head and replied without taking a step back: "I still think it's good to talk about Tan." ”

Yan Song's face was slightly gloomy, this "Tianzi No. 1" cardinal, who was also in charge of six departments at the same time, had the right to promote people, and he firmly grasped it in his hands. At this time, he said coldly: "I have already said, this person can't be used, you have to think clearly." ”

Yan Songming is persuasion, and secretly is a threat.

Xu Jie smiled bitterly, knowing that he couldn't push Yan Song too hard, and his tone suddenly weakened: "You are the first assistant, and you still have the final say in everything." ”

Yan Song snorted coldly and walked over with Yu Yu behind his back.

As he spoke, several people walked out of the gate.

From here, it is the royal road in front of the Huangji Gate, and the royal road is the noon gate, which is out of the palace.

Xia Mu followed all the way speechlessly, and saw that Yan Song still wanted to protect Hu Zongxian, it can be seen that Hu Zongxian is indeed a member of the Yan Party, which makes Xia Mu a pity, the image that Hu Zongxian gave him has always been the image of a famous minister who resisted the Japanese, but he didn't want to be the governor of the southeast, and he also had a stain.

But in his opinion, it is true that Hu Zongxian defected to the Yan Party and embezzled military salaries, but he also got rid of Wang Zhi and Xu Hai, which is also a real achievement.

After a while, the two auxiliary ministers broke up unhappily, completely broke up, and tore their faces apart.

Li Mo smiled at Xia Mu, and also left with his thoughts, thinking about where he should go next.

On the lonely Jinshui Bridge, Xia Mu was left alone, he looked back at the gloomy palace, looked at the green pavilion on that floor, the golden light and yellow tiles, and couldn't help but sigh:

"The young man doesn't know the taste of sorrow, he falls in love with the floor, he falls in love with the floor, and he is worried about the new words. Now I know all the sorrows, I want to say that I will rest, I want to say that I will rest, but I will say that the weather is cool and autumn! ”

At the end of June and the beginning of July, the wind is warm, the water is blue, and the grass grows and the warbler flies.

I saw that on both sides of Chang'an Avenue, there were lights everywhere, full of laughter, and it was almost the Qingming Festival, wasn't it?

It's spring and autumn again. As the old saying goes, the gentleman's ze, the third generation will be beheaded.

This sentence is not an exaggeration, the Yan family, the Xu family, and the Xia family, which one is not the third generation after all.

Who can be evergreen, the flowers will bloom for a hundred days, and there will be a day of defeat after all.

He came to this troubled era, not necessarily to be an official residence, and it will last forever.

It's just that when you come and see it, you can't see the Chinese nation being bullied by the Dongyi clown, you should always try to do something. It doesn't matter whether it's right or wrong, and what future generations say about him.

What matters is what he brings to Daming!

Whether it is said that he favors the king, whether it is said that he is a powerful minister or a minister, is it really important to live in the world?

Such as Yan Song, such as Xu Jie, fought for twenty or thirty years, and finally won, what is there?

It's not a loess cultivation, in exchange for just a few lines of pen and ink on the three-foot history book!

Xia Mu didn't understand this, he just had a clear conscience.

Take Hu Zongxian as an example, Xia Mujing is a hero, but he colluded with Zhao Wenhua to embezzle military salaries, which is a wrong thing, and Xia Mu has to sue him!

Perhaps the grievances with Hu Zongxian in this life began in Si, and they were also gracious.

Just do it, do it, and don't regret it.

"Don't look back on Huangquan Road, Meng Po won't take over with tea.

However, there is no regret on the bridge, and there are tears in the Lechuan River! ”

Xia Mu sang a song and returned to Yang Wan's old mansion, when a cold wind blew, making his thin flying fish suit feel cold for three points.

Since last year, the weather has not been so warm.

It's just that when I arrived at the door, I heard the voice of Asan's little girl inside: "When autumn comes on September 8, I will kill a hundred flowers after the flowers bloom." ”

"Oh, the little girl has actually learned to recite poetry!"

When Ah Sang heard Childe's words, he hurriedly stretched out his hand to cover his shy face, and said weakly: "The slave doesn't dare." ”

Xia Mu let go of her hand and smiled: "What's this, poetry is not a literati's specialty, anyone can chant." The young master, I also groaned: the boy bleeds without tears, and the iron builds his muscles and bones without kneeling. Fine dark iron embroidered spring tears, a knife to the ground to end people's lives! ”

Ah Sang smiled bitterly: "The young master's poem, no, it sounds so cheesy!" ”

Xia Mu pursed his lips: "Cheesy is cheesy, how can it be, Lao Tzu himself can listen to it well!" ”

Luo Kedi heard Xia Mu's voice and walked out of the room, only to see that this guy was holding a green ant new brew wine and a small red clay stove in his hand, but he was very happy!

"A big man is holding a rabbit in his arms, it's really unusual." Xia Mu said as he put on the fox fur coat that Ah Sang handed over.

"Who said that men can't be quiet in Yumo, like me, holding a rabbit in his arms, holding a small stove, drinking and drinking, that is the stability of the present world, and the years are quiet!"

This kid has been mixed with Xia Mu for a long time, and he has learned a lot of popular words in later generations.

Xia Mu smiled faintly, picked up the blue-colored teapot with good glaze on the coffee table, poured a cup of steaming tea, blew the floating tea powder on it, took a sip of kissing, and then said: "I was named the four-pin town envoy by His Majesty." ”

"Really!" Luo Kedi almost cheered, "Follow my brother to really have meat to eat!" ”

Ah Sang was also overjoyed: "Then I'll go out and buy some wine and food to celebrate the young master." ”

Xia Mu hurriedly waved his hand: "No, I have to go to Teacher Xu Jie's house for a banquet in the evening, you two will eat first." ”

Ahsan's face faded with joy.

Xia Mu expected that Xu Jie would definitely talk about his marriage tonight, and now that he and Yan Song have fallen out, Xu Xiyi will definitely not marry Yan Shaoting again, and this marriage is inseparable.

But can marrying Xu Xiyi really make Lao Xu kiss him?

Not necessarily!

With Xu Jie's attitude towards himself and Zhang Juzheng, Xia Mu could think that even if he married Xu Xiyi, I am afraid that Xu Jie's attitude towards him would not be any better, but at least it could be eased.

He is also powerless.

After all, Xu Jie's is no longer something that Yan Song can shake, and if he wants to continue to mix in the Ming officialdom, he must take refuge in Xu Jie.

At this time, Yan Mansion.

Yan Song returned home, lost his temper, and hurriedly found his son Yan Shifan.

Yan Shifan was in the Tibetan Beauty Building with the newly brought Jiangnan girl in love, and was doing something big, when he heard the old housekeeper looking for him in a hurry, he had no choice but to put on his pants and hurried home.

As soon as I entered the study, I saw the old father panting and throwing the vase to the ground.

"Father, but something big happened in the court today?"

Yan Song glanced at his son angrily: "Xia Mu, that kid not only did not die, but became the pacification envoy of the Left Army Governor's Mansion, and what is even more infuriating is that Xu Jie'er has publicly torn his face with me, Wenhua was demoted to a commoner, it is over, I want you to find a way to get rid of Xu Jie, just like killing Xia Yan in the first place!" ”

Yan Song told Yan Shifan of his intentions, but to his surprise, this one-eyed son actually told him not to openly confront Xu Jie.

"Why?" Yan Song was stunned.

"Can't my father see it? Xu Jie's climate has become unbearable. Yan Shifan does live up to his reputation, this assertion is very accurate, at this time Xu Jie's is no longer what it used to be, his current full title is: Ministry of Rites, Dongge University Scholar, Prince Taifu (from a product), cabinet deputy Xu Jie.

The number two person under the Son of Heaven, the hero who defeated Qiu Luan, the emperor's personal confidants, and Xu Jie is a member of Wang Xuemen, with a large number of allies.

"Is it really just that he is dominant?" Yan Song sighed helplessly.

Yan Shifan looked at his sulky father, and hehe: "Father, don't worry, although Xu Jie is difficult to deal with, it is not impossible to deal with!" We can suppress him. After all, my father is still the first assistant, not only has the trust of the emperor, but also has a large number of comrades and spies, as long as we keep an eye on Xu Jie, restrain his actions, there is no need to make a big move, and when the limelight passes, this upstart will be completely killed. ”

This strategy fully shows the level of struggle of Mr. Yan Shifan, and it has been proved that this soft knife murder strategy is very effective, Xu Jie, who has risen to the top, has no opponent, and no one openly opposes him, but in secret, there are countless pairs of eyes watching his every move.

What made him even more depressed was that when dealing with the official affairs of the imperial court, no matter what opinions and proposals he put forward, they were always unreasonably dismissed, and in the face of this qiē, he would have no choice.

Because in the cabinet of the Ming Dynasty, although the first assistant and the second assistant are both cabinet members, only the first assistant counts, and if there is a difficult first assistant to serve, the rest of the cabinet members will only have to serve tea and pour water.

The sudden downfall of Zhao Wenhua shocked the entire Gyeonggi and made the Yan Party even more popular.

For a time, the political situation in the entire capital was chaotic because of the Yan Party and the sudden downfall of Zhao Wenhua.

But the angriest person among them is Zhang Juzheng.

Zhang Juzheng was a jinshi in the 26th year of Jiajing, and he also had Li Chunfang, the current right attendant of the Ministry of Officials, Wang Shizhen, the current right attendant of the Ministry of War, Gao Gong, the sacrificial wine of the Hanlin Academy, and Yang Jisheng, who was demoted to the head of the household department in Nanjing.

But compared to other subjects, he seems to have done nothing, since the graduation of Shu Jishi, he was assigned to the Hanlin Academy as an editor, just a seven-grade editor, copying examples under Yuan Wei every day, it seems really boring.

And he Zhang Juzheng is just an idle person, he witnessed the current government slack, I want to burn the scene of the tragic scene, this 20-year-old Hanlin official has felt that the Ming is hopeless, must be sharpened reform, in order to revitalize the Ming Dynasty, so he has been studying the disadvantages of the Ming Dynasty, hoping that one day he can implement a whip reform such as Wang Anshi!

As a student of Xu Jie, the teacher is undoubtedly a great help to him, so he has written to his teacher many times, hoping that he will stand up against the Yan Party that eradicates the disaster to the country and the people, and supports his reform plan!

But the teacher Xu Jie never gave him a clear answer.

Zhang Juzheng couldn't do anything about this, because at this time, he was just an insignificant little person, and the anger of the little person was useless.

But compared to Zhang Juzheng, the same department of the Hanlin Academy, the current sacrificial wine Gao Gong, is much smarter than Zhang Juzheng, although he has just turned forty years old, although he looks taciturn, but he is scheming, the city government is very deep, he is very aware of the current political struggle and political situation.

Therefore, he neither took refuge in the dominant Yan Song, nor did he pay attention to the forbearant Xu Jie, let alone Li Mo, who cared about the grasshoppers after the autumn, and let them shout and kill outside, he did not move.

Because he has already found the magic weapon for ultimate victory in the complicated situation.

Thirty-one years of Jiajing. When the high arch was once again in ceremony, a sacrificial text was offered.

This sacrificial text was favored by Yuan Wei, and at that time, it was the time when Yuwangfu was recruiting for training, but the emperor didn't love his son, and the six departments were pressed by Yan Song, and no one paid attention to Yuwangfu.

Yuwang even ran to the ministry many times by himself, but no one birded him.

So Yuan Wei couldn't stand it, so Gao Gong, a student who had read poetry and books, left the Hanlin Academy and became a lecturer of King Yu.

Gao Gong knew the intentions and intentions of his teacher Yuan Wei - the current emperor doesn't bird you, then you will train the next emperor!

Gao Gongjiang's words and deeds, serious practice, since entering the Yuwang Mansion, he has worked very hard, taught Yuwang with heart, day and night, and won the trust of Yuwang.

He ran around for the palace, and when the Yan Party was in full swing, he defended King Yu everywhere.

Finally, when the time came for such a dedicated high arch, five years ago, Jiajing's crown prince died, leaving only two sons - King Yu and King Jing. Both were born in the sixteenth year of Jiajing, and King Yu was born a month earlier than King Jing.

This dooms King Yu to be the future son of heaven.

And he is the emperor's teacher, what he has to do now is to wait, waiting for the day when the old emperor returns to the west.
