It turns out that although the grapevine is very unreliable at times, sometimes the accuracy is quite good. And the more accurate the gossip that comes from the center of power, the more accurate.

The day after Fang Qingzhi, the left edict of the Zhan Mansion and the attendant of the Hanlin Academy, heard the gossip from the East Palace, that is, the fourth day when Fang Yingwu returned home from Suzhou Mansion, an angel in the palace came to Fang's house to deliver the holy message, summoning Fang Yingwu to enter the palace two days later, that is, on March 9.

This can be said to be a stone stirring up a thousand waves, and the court up and down seems to have fried a pot, and the discussion is boiling, and its violent range is even greater than when the heavenly changes occur!

Last year, there was an earthquake in Beijing, and this year there was a falling star, and there were visions for two consecutive years, and it was rare to say that it was rare. But the Chenghua Son of Heaven summoned the minister into the palace, especially the deep palace within the Qianqing Gate, which was something that had not happened in 20 years!

Since Tianshun ascended the throne in the eighth year, he has reigned for about 22 years, but only in the first two or three years, he has interacted more with ministers.

But after a few years, the position of the Son of Heaven was stable, and his introverted personality had also become a type, and he felt that the answers of the monarch and the ministers were really rigid and boring, so he did not like to summon the ministers. Most of the officials can only take a look at the Son of Heaven from a distance at the court meeting, and the occasional exceptions are also the ministers summoned by the Imperial Wenhua Hall of the Son of Heaven, which is also out of official business, which is similar to the court meeting.

Of course, there are also so-called "ministers" who can enter the palace to meet the Son of Heaven, but they are nothing more than painters, craftsmen, calligraphers and the like enshrined in the palace, who are only given inexplicable official titles as a reward.

Therefore, it is safe to say that in the past 20 years, the Son of Chenghua has never summoned a serious civil minister in private.

Something that hasn't happened in almost twenty years. And it was something that all the ministers felt awkward and musty in their hearts, and suddenly made a breakthrough without psychological preparation. The impact is indeed more powerful than the sky.

After hearing the news, everyone almost couldn't believe that the dead otaku hiding in the deep palace would take the initiative to summon the minister?

There are many opinions on this matter. A thousand people can have a thousand ideas. And what's even more rare is that there is no camp at all in the various discussions, and the thoughts of a clear stream Naochen are likely to be the same as the thoughts of a lucky clown.

Some people burst into tears, thinking that this is because the Son of Heaven has been affected by the changes in heaven and has begun to get close to the virtuous and upright! Definitely a good sign, the Ming Dynasty ZTE is expected!

Some people are cold and objective, and calmly think that this is purely because the Son of Heaven is curious, just like ordinary people who hear mysterious rumors and always want to see them with their own eyes.

Some people beat their chests and feet. howled and said This is the Ming version of "don't ask the common people to ask the ghosts and gods", it must be that the Son of Heaven heard the rumors that the Star Monarch had descended to earth, so he wanted to summon and ask. The holy monarch is like this, the country will not be a country, and the Ming Dynasty will be finished!

No matter how everyone figured out the mind of the Son of Heaven, but after figuring out and guessing, everyone's mood was much the same, nothing more than envy, jealousy and hatred. It doesn't matter what camp it is, whether it's loyal and treacherous. It's exactly the same mood.

In the Chenghua Dynasty, being able to enter the deep palace to meet Tianyan, and having the honor to answer the monarch and minister alone, this opportunity is not once in a lifetime for most people. Not to mention ordinary ministers. Even the elder of the pavilion, who is a scholar, is just as jealous.

Wan'an Wan Shoufu, in order to please the Son of Heaven, can only secretly mix the Spring Palace readings in the chapter, if he can communicate with the Son of Heaven in private. Why?

Another university scholar, Liu Yu, has faded in recent years. His status has declined sharply, but he has no chance to intercede with the Son of Heaven face-to-face. can only sigh in the face of estrangement. Hearing that the enemy Fang Yingwu was able to enter the inner palace, he was so jealous that he wanted to go crazy.

As for the Qingliu people, they all regard this as an excellent opportunity to leave a name in history, and it has the meaning of "loyalty to the monarch and serving the country in one fell swoop".

For a while, the Fang family was full of guests, and the cars outside the door were like flowing water and horses, like dragon crowns, and the threshold of the lobby in the door was about to be broken. There are still people in the capital who want to burn incense and worship the gods, and they can't squeeze into the alley for the past two days.

So many people came to Fang's house to watch the excitement, Fang Yingwu did not show up in line with the principle of "low-key", and all the entertainment was handed over to his father.

In fact, this can be regarded as helping my father gather popularity, as a potential player who enters the cabinet, there is never too much such thing as popularity and fame.

But you can't stop outsiders, but you can't stop relatives. The eldest brother Liu Feng and Liu Dagongzi, who came from Liu's mansion, did not go to the main hall, and came directly to the west courtyard to find Fang Yingwu.

Fang Yingwu said politely: "Rare guests, rare guests, there is a loss of welcome!" Wasn't you sent by Lao Taishan to sit in the prison of the country to study? Why do you have time to come to me today? Did you skip class? ”

Liu Dagongzi waved his hand: "I specially asked for leave to come and see you, brother-in-law!" Then he said, "I heard that you are going to enter the palace, can you bring my father with you?" That's what my father asked me to ask. ”

What did you do with Lao Taishan when you entered the palace and asked, "How could Lao Taishan have this idea?" ”

"My father said that I am afraid that you are young and ignorant and rude, and it is safer for him to accompany the old man by his side! Presumably, the Son of Heaven will not blame. ”

Fang Yingwu was speechless, Liu Mian's calculations were really thoughtful. When you enter the palace, you can't just take people with you.

But Liu Mian is a cabinet scholar, a figure at the level of the prime minister, and an elder of Fang Yingwu, and he is cheeky to follow in, it is not a matter of principle, and it is really difficult for the palace to stop him.

Fang Yingwu was looking down and pondering, but saw Wang Ying hurriedly running over and shouting, "The eldest master called Brother Qiu, you go to the hall to meet guests!" Go now! ”

In this way, Fang Yingwu had to let the eldest brother sit first, ask Wang Ying to accompany the guests, and then straighten out a few clothes and go to the hall to meet the guests. At the same time, I also muttered in my heart, I don't know who is coming, but my father actually asked him to come out to meet the guests.

Entering the room, Fang Yingwu saw that his father was talking with the guest, and took a closer look, but saw that the guest was old, thin, and sallow, as if he was seriously ill in his last years.

Fang Qingzhi shouted at his son: "I haven't come here to see the seniors in the department!" This is the old man of the criminal department! ”

Hearing his father's introduction, Fang Yingwu was shocked and hurriedly stepped forward to salute. This guest is Mao Hong in the criminal department, and Fang Yingwu's nominal official is still in the matter, so Fang Qingzhi will use the word senior.

This Mao Hong is very famous, and he can be called the first minister in the court now, and like his cheap grandfather Wang Shu, he is a super big thorn in His Majesty's heart. Fang Yingwu had a faint premonition, this Mao Hong would definitely call him very tricky.

Sure enough, Senior Mao took a few breaths, held on to the side of the case to stabilize his body, and the other party responded: "The old man is here today for the people of the world!" (To be continued......)
