Emperor Jiajing years ago, after receiving Zhao Wenhua's letter of "Haiyan Heqing", he promoted him to the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, and added the title of prince and princess, Zhao Wenhua almost collected thousands of graces.

But only a month later, Jiajing repeatedly punished Zhao Wenhua for the crime of "Haiyan Heqing", which is tantamount to a resounding slap in the face to himself.

And Emperor Jiajing is an emperor who pays great attention to face, so Li Mo published an article on Haiyan Heqing, it is difficult to make Emperor Jiajing happy, even if he has the heart to govern Zhao Wenhua, he will not do it.

No emperor will slap his face, Jun Wu joked that Lao Tzu said that this is the place, the place, don't talk about it.

But Yan Song has been with Emperor Jiajing for more than 20 years, and he has long known the emperor's temperament, personality and various power methods, and he dared to admit Zhao Wenhua's sins, and the key point was that there was a problem with the performance of the "Haiyan Heqing", which was to make the emperor in a dilemma, and he could naturally protect Zhao Wenhua.

For more than 20 years, Yan Song has been good at peeking into Jiajing's temperament, and using this kind of emperor's heart to control the emperor's joy and anger, which is the secret weapon that Yan Song can dictate for 20 years without falling to the court. For more than 20 years, I don't know how many loyal and virtuous people have died unjustly, such as Xia Yan, such as Li Tianpet, such as Yang Yi; I don't know how many evildoers have escaped punishment and are at large under their wings, continuing to do evil, such as Zhao Wenhua and Luo Longwen.

Xia Mu saw it thoroughly, and he could only sigh about it. Li Mo wrote to impeach Yan Song for 'peeking at the emperor's joy and anger, and stealing the power of the king', which is really not wrong at all.

Under this passionate speech, Emperor Jiajing really had compassion, only to see him slowly get up, walk down the imperial steps, look at the old Yan Song who was kneeling on the ground and couldn't cry, and said: "But Zhong has been with me for more than 20 years, if I really don't think about a little personal affection, it will inevitably seem that I am too unkind?" Although Zhao Wenhua is a bit of a bully, but the commander of the southeast has been fighting against the Japanese for many years, and there is still some hard work without credit, if he kills him directly, it will inevitably not make the people of the world feel cold! ”

Yan Song saw that the emperor really acted according to the plan in his heart, and he couldn't help but be secretly happy, but he didn't dare to show a little on the surface, so he hurriedly made a gesture of gratitude, and sighed loudly: "Thank you Your Majesty for showing compassion to the old minister, my emperor is broad-minded, and he is really a benevolent emperor who has never been seen in the past dynasties. ”

Li Mo was in a hurry on the side, this Zhao Wenhua's death was a sure thing, why was it now turned into a small thing by Yan Song, and a small thing was turned into nothing?

Xia Mu didn't have any extra feelings, because no matter whether Zhao Wenhua was punished or not, it was useless, then Zhao Wenhua would have died under his own knife a long time ago, even if he knew underground, he could laugh at Jiuquan! Even if he is a dead man, he can still affect the overall situation of the court and cause the ministers of the two parties to attack each other!

Xu Jie, who was on the side, saw Yan Song like this, his expression was moved, and he forced out a few tears, with his wrinkled old face, knelt at the feet of Emperor Jiajing, and choked up: "Wei Chen Minggan Wu, His Majesty's benevolence and righteousness, the old minister is not as good as just in case, His Majesty not only did not punish Zhao Wenhua, but thought of the merits he had made, and forgave him for the crime of 'falsely reporting the results of the battle and bullying the king', and the old minister was touched by His Majesty's benevolence!" ”

The so-called drama is a full set, this Xu Jie's means of inserting needles makes Xia Mu almost throw himself to the ground.

Xu Jie's move caused Emperor Jiajing to laugh even more.

Li Mo on the side saw a good plan to eliminate Yan, but he was disturbed by Yan Song in the blink of an eye, and he wanted to commit suicide in his heart, secretly scolding Yan Song, an old man, for being shameless, and his chest was uncomfortable as if it was about to explode. So...... Li Shangshu decided to go out, and fought with Lao Bangzi, so he threw himself at Jiajing's feet and shouted: "Your Majesty, Zhao Wenhua must not be pardoned, that Zhao Wenhua has been in the southeast for many years, and he is even more insatiable, looting the people's fat and people's ointment, secretly communicating with Japanese slaves, killing local rich gentry, embezzling military salaries, guiding the southeast army and people are unbearable, and the government taxes are unbearable!" ”

Emperor Jiajing's face sank when he heard this, and he seemed to have listened to Li Mo's persuasion, returned to the dragon chair, and nodded, agreeing with Li Mo's words.

Yan Song, who had long been observant of his words and feelings, secretly shouted that it was not good, and when he saw Jiajing's rebellion, he was anxious, and he hurriedly refuted: "Lord Li, people are responsible for what they say, Zhao Wenhua and you are both the secretary of the six ministries, you have not been verified by the official of science and Taoism, and you directly said that Zhao Wenhua embezzled military salaries and secretly communicated with Japanese slaves, is it slandering the ministers of the court?" ”

"I slander him, I don't do anything wrong, I'm not afraid of ghosts knocking on the door!" Li Mo hardened his mind, he was out today, he had to take Zhao Wenhua down, and he fought with Yan Laobangzi, "Yan Ge Lao, a month ago, Zhao Zhenji, the servant of my ministry, went missing in Zhejiang Lianghuai to check the military salary, and it was found out in just one year, there are more than 500,000 military salaries missing, where did the money go?" I'm afraid that Yan Ge Lao knows better than me in his heart! ”

"Master Li, if you have something to say, you might as well say it directly, why insinuate, villain!" Old Yan Song's cloudy eyes suddenly shone coldly, and a condescending momentum pressed Li Mo fiercely, only to see him staring at Li Mo, and said word by word, "The loyalty of the old minister, the sun and the moon can be seen, and the body is not afraid of shadows!" ”

Emperor Jiajing had returned to the dragon chair at this time, standing there, looking at the two powerful ministers facing each other, but there was an unfathomable smile on the corner of his mouth.

Xia Mu looked at the two powerful ministers who were fighting, and then looked at Jiajing who was smiling, feeling that Emperor Jiajing was like walking a dog, he clearly knew all the evidence of Zhao Wenhua's crimes, but he still pretended not to know, walking the two dogs of Yan Song and Li Mo, pinching each other, and watching the play by himself.

In fact, Li Mo also knew in his heart that his loss was a foregone conclusion, but seeing Yan Song escape again, he was unwilling in his heart, very unwilling!

But he couldn't help it now.

People can't lose momentum!

So Li Mo stiffened his neck, blushed when he quarreled with Yan Song, and finally scolded tired, and stared at each other with eyes, waiting for Emperor Jiajing to give the final verdict.

"Zhao Wenhua punished him to go to the north to defend the border" Emperor Jiajing let Zhao Wenhua go as soon as he said Jinkou.

Yan Song cried with joy, Li Mo was mourned, and Xia Mu's heart fluctuated.

And Xu Jie, but he is an old fox hiding behind his back, how could he let go of such an opportunity?

The answer, of course, is no.

I saw Xu Jie stand up unhurriedly, take out a letter, and said: "Your Majesty, the construction project of Yuxi Palace, I'm afraid it will be after winter before it can continue!" ”

What's that?

Let's discuss national affairs here, you Xu Er, interject halfway, make an engineering incident, what are you going to do!

The crowd didn't know why.

Emperor Jiajing understood, and couldn't help but snort angrily, "What do you Rites do to eat, do you want me to spend the winter in the old Zichen Palace?" What about the household? Why didn't the household department allocate money and step up the project? ”

Xu Jie saw that Emperor Jiajing was really angry, smiled proudly, and said unhurriedly: "The minister is the head of the household department, and the scholar of Wenyuan Pavilion Yuan Wei is sparse, and the household department has no money." ”

"No money?" Jiajing smiled angrily, "Then leave it to the Ministry of Industry!" ”

Xu Jie's eyes lit up, and he waited for the emperor's words, so he ...... The old lion bared his fangs: "Have you forgotten that it was Your Majesty who handed over the construction project of Yuxi Palace to Zhao Wenhua, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, a few years ago?" ”

When Yan Song heard this, he suddenly realized, and glanced at Xu Jie, who was silent, in horror, it turned out that he was his enemy, and the dog that could bite people didn't bark!

Xia Mu was also secretly frightened, secretly saying that this Xu Jie, who was indeed an old fox who had cultivated finely! It stands to reason that this real estate project was handed over to the Ministry of Industry to handle, and the emperor's project should be stepped up, but Minister Zhao's head didn't know if it hit the pillar or was demented, so he ignored it and let it go, and as a result, a house was repaired for several months and was not formed, and it became an unfinished building. Comrade Jiajing is still worthy of praise, he did not urge Zhao Wenhua, and still lived in his old house.

But seeing the winter, Jiajing is used to living in Yuxi Palace in winter, but Minister Zhao will build the silver of Yuxi Palace to build a high-rise building Beppu for himself, and the emperor's house will naturally become an unfinished building. Xu Jie saw the opportunity and really gave Yan Song a fatal blow!

Jiajing was furious: "Repairing a Yuxi Palace, delayed for a year, is Zhao Wenhua a pig!" ”

Yan Song hurriedly knelt on the ground and pleaded guilty: "The saint is angry, the old minister will hand it over to the household department, immediately drop the silver, build the Yuxi Palace for the saint, and keep the work before the year!" ”

Emperor Jiajing's expression was gloomy, staring at Yan Song: "Didn't you say that the household department has no money?" Where did the money go, why did you say that there was money, but Xu Jie said that there was no money? ”

Yan Song swallowed for a while, the household really had no money, because the money went to him.

The hall was speechless for a while, and Xu Jie was also secretly anxious, so he was about to catch fire, but who would add this fire?

He glanced at Xia Mu vaguely.

Xia Mu saw Xu Jie's eyes light up when he saw Xu Jie, he felt that he had to do something, otherwise Xu Jie would settle accounts after the autumn, and now he couldn't offend this teacher.

wanted to hurry out of the queue, and said to Emperor Jiajing: "Your Majesty, the Yuxi Palace is too old to live in, but before the minister entered the palace, he saw a high-rise building on Chang'an Street in the northwest, which was ten thousand times more luxurious than the Yuxi Palace. ”

The newly built palace, Jiajing didn't hear Zhao Wenhua say this, and wanted to hurry up to the pavilion, climb high and look into the distance, only to see that there is a mansion on West Chang'an Street, which is extremely luxurious and is still expanding.

Yan Song looked at the residence, his face suddenly turned pale, and he looked at Xia Mu in horror, eager to kill this wilted little bastard.

Xu Jie suddenly realized, and glanced at Xia Mu with appreciation, Xia Mu also showed favor to Xu Jie, and the teacher and student did not smile.

Li Mo on the side looked at Xia Mu and Xu Jie, and his heart was full of thoughts.

Jiajing looked gloomy and asked Huang Jin on the side: "Who is that house?" ”

This is the time to test your character!

A hundred years ago, Zhu Qizhen of Ming Yingzong once stood on a high platform, looked at similar buildings, and asked the same question, and the result of that question and answer was that Shi Heng's family, who had infinite scenery in the Ming Dynasty, was destroyed.

Now history is turning, and it is the turn of Zhao Wenhua, who is in power in the southeast.

It stands to reason that if Minister Zhao has a good character and a good relationship, everyone can help him say something, and he should be able to avoid this disaster, but unfortunately this brother is really unlucky, and fortunately he is dead, otherwise he would have to die of anger.

Because at this moment, Jiajing's entourage has no allies around him, only his godfather Yan Song, an old man, how can the old man be past Xia Mu's three big men!

So...... So......

I saw Xu Jie, Li Mo, and Xia Mu immediately scrambled to say the name of Minister Zhao Wenhua.

What's even more infuriating is Li Mo, this unkind brother actually said such a sentence: "The building materials of the Ministry of Industry were originally used to repair Zhao Shangshu's house, no wonder His Majesty's new house has never been repaired!" ”

This rotten medicine is too fierce, looking at the mansion in front of him, recalling his unfinished building, Jiajing is angry: Zhao Wenhua, I'm afraid you're tired of being crooked! So...... That's the end of Minister Zhao's life!

A thousand miles of embankment collapsed in an anthill.

It turns out that sooner or later you will have to pay it back!
