At the end of May and the beginning of June, the weather in the capital is getting hotter, and it has reached the height of summer, but it is gradually spreading the stories of loyal ministers and filial sons full of positive energy.

The brilliance of human nature is very brilliant, and it is accompanied by impassioned and passionate poetry, which is embarrassing to hear. If it weren't for the people's will, the Yang family and the Yue family would not have been passed down for hundreds of years.

"The father repays the country's kindness, and the son is loyal to the soul!"

"The wind blows the shackles all over the city, and the clusters compete to see the new Shuchang!"

"Serving the country has always been loyal to the martyrs, and this body is only seven feet with the party!"

"The loyal ministers of the Song family are dead, and the Fang family is the back!"

In fact, as far as the other party is concerned, whether the people are moved or not is not the most important thing, as long as the ministers of the court feel it.

In order to achieve this goal, he can be described as painstaking, neither too much nor too bland. It is not a good thing to go too far and directly provoke the emperor, and it is even worse to make others disgusted; If it's too bland, it won't touch people's hearts, so what's the use?

Therefore, in the process of shaping the typical filial piety of loyal ministers, it is the most difficult place to take a sense of proportion. Like the trick suggested by Lou Tianhua to howl and cry in the street, if you can't really devote yourself to it, you will be recognized by the old fritters in the officialdom of Beijing as contrived at a glance. It is better to be sometimes faintly sad, and sometimes sudden anger is more natural, and it will not be recognized and questioned.

said that this story of loyalty and filial piety has been circulated, but the party Fang Yingwu said that he was sick and hid in the room today, looking at the two invitations with a sad face.

He didn't expect that after the word loyalty and filial piety was raised, the first thing to attract was not a bee butterfly, but a fly, and he was really a little helpless about it.

If you want to find any words to describe his mood at this time, there is a very suitable saying in time and space in the previous life: It is not necessarily the prince who comes on a white horse, but also Tang Seng.

On the first post, "The Imperial Jinyi Guard Commands the Envoy Commander Tongzhiwan". It is Wan Tong, the younger brother of Wan Guifei, who is the only favorite of the harem, and he was the commander of the Sanpin Jinyi Guard. is still a real job, not a fictitious official with a fortune.

In Fang Yingwu's impression. This person was also promoted to the commander of the Jinyi Guard in the future, and he worked until the death of the Chenghua Son of Heaven, then he lost his backer and gave up his position.

Wantong Wanda's reputation is not very good, like his two brothers, because of his sister, he suddenly became noble from the bottom, but the character of the scoundrel in the market has not changed. When I became a brocade guard, I still like to mess around in the market, and I have done all kinds of bad things about extortion, and the people in the rivers and lakes are called Waner.

As for the second letter on the post, "The Prince of the Ministry of Rites, the Prince of Shaobao, the University of Wenyuange, Liu". It is Liu Ji, who ranked third among the three cabinet scholars of the dynasty, and is also one of the famous papier-mâché three elders in history.

In general, history books pay attention to the dignity of the venerable, and the officials have achieved the level of being a savior, and most of them have a great image in the history books. But the history books are very unkind to this Liu Ji Liu Ge Lao, and the evaluation is that he is a vegetarian and proficient in private business, and his reputation is especially evident.

Liu Ji's reputation is about a little stronger than that of today's Shoufu Wan An, he is stronger than Wan An, and he is not shameless enough to mix the Spring Palace in the recital for the Son of Heaven, so as to please the Son of Heaven.

Fang Yingwu knows. In the future, the people in the rivers and lakes gave this duke a name called Liu Mian. weishenme is called cotton, bullet resistant, his endurance and thickness are unique, not unprecedented and unprecedented.

In the history books of the previous life. Liu Mian Chenghua entered the cabinet in the eleventh year, worked until the fifth year of Hongzhi, and successively served as a chief assistant for eighteen years.

Eighteen years in the flick of a finger. No matter how turbulent the political situation is, let the officials and officials besiege and impeach and abuse in every way. Liu Mian has always stood tall, standing majestically in the cabinet and smiling proudly.

His predecessor was forced to resign. He was unscathed; A few years later, his second assistant Liu Jue, who was at the same time as him, collapsed, and he was still unharmed; Ten years later, Wan An, the first assistant at the same time as him, fell, and he took the opportunity to become the first assistant instead.

Especially ten years later, the newly enthroned Son of Heaven hated Liu Ji very much, and in this state, Liu Mian still served as the first assistant for nearly six years. Zuihou said goodbye to the old man and returned to his hometown, got a good death, and posthumously presented the Taishi after his death.

Although the reputation is not very good, but purely from the point of view of being an official jishu, this is a top master. Fang Yingwu, as a prophet-like traverser, could only sigh to himself when he thought of Liu Mian's jishu.

Detached from the historical reverie, just looking at these two famous posts, if Liu Mian summoned him, Fang Yingwu can still be understood. In any case, they are all in the same vein of scholars, although their identities are far apart, but they belong to the same scholar class.

However, the summons of the commander of Jinyiwei and the Tongzhi Wantong Wan people made Fang Yingwu inexplicable and completely confused.

Wantong is a relative of the emperor, an uncle who is older than the queen's shili, and his position is attached to the military attaché, and he has almost no intersection with himself in temperament, and he is completely two shijie people. What was the purpose of summoning him for no reason?

Of course, what made Fang Yingwu most depressed was that there were still people with a little reputation and decent students with unlimited potential, but they recruited two not very positive characters first.

It's not surprising if you think about it, treacherous villains are indeed much more agile than most decent gentlemen in terms of chasing after the wind and opportunism.

In other words, when facing the same person, a righteous man and a gentleman think a lot, such as whether such a person is a fellow believer and whether it is worth interacting. But the cunning villain doesn't have to worry at all, as long as it is beneficial, he can start to win over.

The matter has come to this point, Fang Yingwu can only face the reality, he still has to see it, and if he doesn't go to see it, he will offend people in vain. Both of them summoned him tomorrow, but Liu Ge made an appointment for the afternoon, and Commander Wan made an appointment for the evening.

After making up his mind, Fang Yingwu didn't pretend to be sick, and went to the General Administration Department and the Jinyi Health Department outside the gate for a turn, and came back in the evening to rest and recharge for tomorrow's meeting.

Not to mention the gossip, the next day Fang Yingwu arrived near the old mansion of Liu Ge in Xicheng in the morning, and then found a tea shop to enjoy the shade. It was past noon, and seeing that the time was almost up, Fang Yingwu got up again and went to Liu's mansion.

The advantage of this is that you avoid traveling for long periods of time in the midday sun, which can lead to listlessness or poor image.

When he arrived at Liu Ji's mansion, because the elder had instructed the doorman in advance, Fang Yingwu was taken to the backyard study very smoothly.

Liu Mian and Liu Ge are only in their early fifties this year, and in terms of age, they are very young university scholars. He was not good at stubble in the field back then. At the age of twenty-three or four, he was admitted to the Jinshi, and then he was admitted to the Shujishi. From Hallymin Temple, all the way to the cabinet.

Fang Yingwu saw Liu Ji and looked at it secretly. I saw that his eyebrows were very thin, his eyes were not big but very bright, his face was very pointed, and his beard was relatively sparse.

As a person who has dealt with Shang Xianggong and Wang Shu, and has gone through a period of experience under Wang Changdu, Fang Yingwu can be regarded as experienced.

This time, when he saw the old scholar, he was not flustered and nervous. He saluted unhurriedly, greeted him a few words, and then kept silent. Wait for the master to speak.

Liu Ji was naturally also observing, and couldn't help nodding secretly, this son's demeanor has his own demeanor, which is not comparable to ordinary young people.

Liu Ge Lao opened his mouth and asked, "I heard about you, although your filial piety is commendable, it is enough to move the heavens and the earth." But there are many slanderous words in your verses. For example, if you don't see the sentence of the same righteous man, it is not a satire on the princes of the court; For example, who knows that the current general will be the same, or the surname Qin people. How is it different from name-calling? ”

Fang Yingwu sighed secretly, it was always tiring to meet and talk with these big people formally. They never get straight to the point, they always have to start a few circles. In the name of it, it is called a test of backwardness.

But no matter what, you have to deal with it carefully, and this time Fang Yingwu will naturally not collide in front of you. "I am anxious to save my father in my later life. I was also worried about my father's safety, so I had this impatient remark. ”

Liu Ji shook his head and said, "That's not what the old man asked. Speaking of which. is also a colleague of Lingzun, what is the reason for your sarcasm with poetry? It is necessary to know that Ling Zun was imprisoned. A large part of the reason is that the Son of Heaven is really angry, and the reason for the anger is that your father impeached the Son of Heaven, not because your father impeached the cabinet.

Therefore, you should know that the root cause of Ling Zun's imprisonment is the people on the king's side, not the cabinet. But you mocked the Manchu ministers in the verses, but gently spared the people on the king's side, can you tell the old man the reason? ”

The people on the side of the monarch that Liu Ji said are, to put it bluntly, three kinds of shili - concubines, monks, monks, and eunuchs, but with Liu Mian's caution, even if he talks in private, he will not easily say those words.

He also asked very sharply, and in the midst of heavy cover-ups, he directly grasped the key point. Yes, you don't dare to satirize the real culprit in the verses, but only the civil officials?

Replaced by ordinary people, it is estimated that they are still lamenting the loyalty and filial piety of the Fang family, how can they notice this flaw in Fang Yingwu for a while.

Fang Yingwu remembered that there were three words in the history books about Liu Mian's evaluation - multi-wisdom. It seems that this person is worthy of his reputation, and he will not comment on his character first, and he is definitely not a qualified Zaifu, but he is certainly the most haode politician.

This question is not easy to answer, but Fang Yingwu thought about it for a while and replied: "As the saying goes, if you don't read a book, you don't know the reason, then if you read the book, you should be reasonable." The princes of the Manchu Dynasty were all scholars, and if they committed unreasonable things, they should also say a few words of sarcasm as advice. If it can promote the correction of the atmosphere, then it is very good.

As for the people on the king's side, they are all favored by Yu Xing, and they are not people who study in my generation, it is not strange that they are unreasonable, what is the reason for the later generation to satirize their generation? The thieves do not stand on the other, and the younger generations have no obligation to persuade them to change their ways, all they can do is take practical actions. ”

Liu Ji shouted lightly: "Good argumentation, it makes sense for you!" But the Ming people don't say dark words, in the old man's opinion, the reason is two points.

First, the momentum of our generation of civil officials has declined in recent years, and the emperor is the most unpopular, and the Son of Heaven still prefers those fortunate people around him. Whether you sarcastically or invinciously treat the princes of the imperial court, there is probably no danger of angering the Son of Heaven.

Second, secondly, the sarcastic gentleman is close to luck, he may be plotted, and he may even lose his life, those people will not pay attention to face.

But satirizing the princes of the DPRK and China is the opposite, not only will it increase fame, but you don't name it alone, so it is naturally inconvenient for my generation to claim it yourself. What's more, people's words are terrifying, my generation punishes you because of your bad face, and no one wants to come forward to be the person surnamed Qin. ”

Fang Yingwu heard Liu Ge Lao list them one by one, his face was slightly moved, but his heart was shocked. I heard Liu Ge ask rhetorically: "That's what the old man thinks of, yes or no?" ”

Of course, Fang Yingwu's forehead was sweating slightly.

This Liu Mian is really unexpectedly powerful, what he listed is completely the calculation in his heart, and it is not bad at all! This is tantamount to completely picking out your own thoughts and drying them out one by one.

is worthy of being a political tumbler, this eyesight and mind skill is indeed extraordinary!

Since Fang Yingwu crossed over, he has relied on more than 500 years of professional accumulation and understanding of celebrities, and only when he is sorry for others. But today, I was caught off guard, and I was punished by the sword of this Liu Mian, who is not crossing the natives!

The first time really hurt (to be continued.) )
