Chapter 720: There's Still a Chance!
Li Dongyang has been in Hanlin since the second year of Chenghua, and he is not a completely unenterprising person, plus he has a wide range of contacts, so he knows a lot about the history of this dynasty.
Seeing that Fang Yingwu was still a little confused, Li Dongyang added: "Shandong Domain, Tai is a cronie of Wanmei Prefecture, and it is rumored that Wanmei Prefecture wanted to suppress the old Liu Jue of the original pavilion, and deliberately installed his cronies in Shandong, all because Shandong is where Liu Jue's hometown is. ”
Although Fang Yingwu's expression was still calm, his heart had gradually returned to normal. It turned out that there was no earthquake news in Beijing before, not all because of the slow transmission in this era, probably because the news was deliberately blocked.
After a little thought, you can figure out the cause and effect. Since the beginning of this year, there have been several earthquakes in the vicinity of Mount Tai, and how dare the counties take responsibility can only report the situation to the political envoys.
And the political envoy must be familiar with the inside story of the political dispute in the imperial court and know what the Taishan earthquake means. Therefore, on the one hand, this political envoy temporarily suppressed the news, and on the other hand, quickly reported the news to Shoufu Wan'an, telling Wan Shoufu to prepare as soon as possible, so as not to be caught off guard by the huge disaster.
Of course, if you think about it, you know that this political envoy will definitely not be stupid enough to take the responsibility of suppressing the news. It must be under the pretext of verifying the situation to delay the time, so that Wan Shoufu can get the news a few days in advance, which is enough.
And the argument of verifying the situation is also very normal, how dare you report such a catastrophic event as several earthquakes in a row, be more cautious, verify clearly and understand that it is always impossible to report it again.
Fang Yingwu also figured it out, no wonder Wan An and Kang Yongshao hooked up so sneakily, and no wonder when he saw Wan An the day before yesterday, he felt that Wan An was too polite to Kang Yongshao. There is even a bit of condescension.
It turned out that Wan'an had a request for Kang Yongshao, because Kang Yongshao was the supervisor of Qintian! Wan An wanted to give an explanation of the Taishan earthquake that was in his interest. Kang Yongshao must cooperate!
Concubine Shao Chen sent her cronies and eunuchs to participate, and eighty percent of them were also for this matter. If it weren't for such an imminent event, how could Shao Niangniang send a eunuch out of the palace secretly?
Although Xiang Chengxian, who came to report the news, knew that now was not the time to urge, he was really nervous, so he couldn't help but ask the other party: "The matter has come to this, will the plan be released?" ”
Fang Yingwu suddenly turned his head and asked, "Wan An Kang Yongshao and his ilk have already gone up, how about the Son of Heaven Holy Judgment?" Xiang Chengxian replied: "I just said that the Mingfa court is discussing, probably to the courtiers' court." ”
"I see" Fang Yingwu's brows gradually loosened, and he said with certainty: "We still have a chance!" ”
Then Fang Yingwu said to Li Dongyang: "I was invited by the teacher today." was supposed to wait in front of the table, but how could such a change occur, and the students really couldn't stay for a long time. ”
The following party Yingwu has to discuss carefully with Xiang Chengxian, but it is inconvenient to say a lot of things in public, so he can't participate in today's Yaji, so he can only say goodbye.
Li Dongyang felt very weird, so much so that he was a little speechless, because Fang Yingwu's attitude couldn't make people not strange. Yes, such a big thing did happen in the imperial court. But strictly speaking, it is a situation of "meat eaters seeking it", and Fang Yingwu is obviously not qualified.
But Fang Yingwu gestured, at least the appearance of the minister's faction. But he's just a cloth coat, and even if he doesn't get dismissed, he's only six grades.
As the saying goes, "When the sky falls, there is a tall man on top", and Fang Yingwu took the initiative to regard himself as a tall man. The sense of ownership is very positive and strong.
The contrast is incongruous, but it seems to be harmonious. As if Fang Yingwu really deserved it, Li Dongyang and the rest could only look at each other.
Fang Yingwu before leaving. Li Dongyang sighed: "There are still princes in the court, why should you force yourself to come out? ”
Fang Yingwu was stunned, but he didn't expect Mr. Li to suddenly ask such a sentence, but fortunately, he was still a little anxious, and immediately replied: "My generation of scholars, we should take the world as our own responsibility!" Say what you say, that's all! ”
Take the world as your own responsibility, follow your words and deeds, that's all? Li Dongyang was stunned, countless pictures flashed through his mind, and finally he suddenly felt a sense of empowerment.
The son is like this, and the father can imagine it. He Li Dongyang has been in Hanyuan for twenty years, and Fang Qingzhi has only been eight years, but Fang Qingzhi's achievements are much greater than him, is this the reason? Without this kind of ideal of the world, how can we have the determination to climb high and look far?
Fang Yingwu had already gone far from Xiang Chengxian, how did he know that the churning thoughts in Mr. Li's heart were actually the reason why he was so positive was that he was worried about being retaliated against by Wan An.
Compared with Wan Shousuke who has gained power and Wan Shoufu who has lost power, they are definitely two different characters. If Wan'an loses power, even if he continues to be the first assistant, although he doesn't dare to say that he is not worried, at least the pressure is much less; If Wan An is more powerful, it will definitely be indispensable for a group of people who are icing on the cake to help clean up themselves.
The second is that Fang Yingwu can't get over his face, and he is even more unwilling to let his calculation fall short, so that such a golden finger will lose its effectiveness in vain, and even be reversed in turn.
Xiang Chengxian asked as he walked, "You said there is still a chance?" Where are the opportunities? ”
Fang Yingwu explained incomprehensibly: "All political explanations about disasters and differences are, in the final analysis, based on the mind of the Son of Heaven, and which interpretation the Son of Heaven adopts is the will of Heaven. ”
Xiang Chengxian was even more deflated when he heard this, and sighed: "That is even more of a chance, the saint is obviously with Wan'an." ”
"Who said that? It's not that simple! Fang Yingwu calmly analyzed: "If the Holy Lord really adopts the words of Wan'an and Kang Yongshao, then he only needs to use Wan'an to release an edict of sin, and pass the message that the will of heaven warns the East Palace to be immoral and replace the prince, why do you want to send the Taishan earthquake to the court?" Let the courtiers talk about it again, and then they can discuss a more intimate result than Wan'an? ”
Xiang Chengxian was reminded by Fang Yingwu and realized. Fang Yingwu continued to explain: "The Son of Heaven has nothing that the Manchu Dynasty civil and military do not know about superstitious ghosts and gods.
If Wan An Kang Yongshao deliberately created the will of heaven in order to flatter him, although the Son of Heaven may cooperate with it for the sake of worry, he will not care too much in his heart, after all, he knows that it is fake.
But the successive earthquakes in Mount Tai were a real thing, and it happened to happen in the months when the East Palace was intended to be abolished. Do you say that in the face of the real catastrophe, can the Sacred Heart not be apprehensive?
No matter how Wan An greets and whitewashes, doesn't the Holy One have the heart to seek the truth? In the face of God's will, even the saints who are afraid of superstitious ghosts and gods do not dare to disobey their will, and affirm that what Wan An Kang Yongshao played must be correct. ”
"Yes!" Xiang Da Yushi became excited again: "That's why the Holy Lord will send the matter of the Taishan earthquake to the court, which shows that the Holy Lord is actually not sure in his heart!" We still have a chance! However, if you cannot attend the court as you, who can stop the wickedness? (To be continued......)
