Chapter 120: The official fights to the end

As soon as this matter came out, Ma Ping's people hated Bai Jikao even more, and they could even guess that Bai Jikao would also rebel one day, and now the only hope was himself. Anyway, he has already entered the court as an official, although he is still only a petty official next to Bai Jikao, but at least he will have more and more opportunities to start with Yan Zi, so he is not in a hurry and let them be proud for a while.

said that he was a petty official, but he was more of a disciple of Bai Jikao, and he couldn't go to the main hall, but he was just a staff officer behind the scenes. Therefore, the situation above the court has to be probed through the people in the palace.

The news I found today is that Yan Zi appointed Mr. Duanmu as a first-class member, Bai Ji was examined as a second-class member, and the imperial court seemed to be very powerful.

But Sheng Linsheng didn't feel it that way, and he was a little wary of Mr. Duanmu from the beginning. Because the first time I met this man, he could faintly guess Yan Zi's thoughts, so Sheng Linsheng couldn't help but be alert, and later knew that he had no malice, so he was not so disgusted, but when he now knew that it was Bai Jikao's senior brother, he was alert to him again, and he always felt that the two of them were going to join forces to do something big, so they had to hate it.

But Yan Zi doesn't think so, there are civil servants on the left and military generals on the right, they are simply full of talents, with a smug smile on his face, and even his words and deeds reveal cheerfulness.

On the contrary, Ma Ping, who inquired about the news from the palace people, was very unhappy with the news, and he was even more worried. Thinking that he was just a disciple and wanted to enter the court, it was still a little difficult, so he became even more nervous, especially Mr. Duanmu became a big official one step ahead, and he had no grade or rank at all, and he felt even more like he was going to be eaten, so he was nervous.

But he was outside the palace to inquire about the news, and at this time the ministers had already gone down to the court, and unfortunately they were caught by Bai Jikao and Mr. Duanmu, and they didn't dare to confront each other head-on, so they could only bow their heads and retreat, feeling like a mouse seeing a cat, and couldn't help but make Bai Jikao laugh for a while.

"Ma Gongzi is so Yaxing, he actually came here. Didn't the official tell you to live in the mansion, why did you come here? Don't you also want to care about the affairs of the imperial court? That's right, who doesn't care about the rise and fall of the world. It's enough to have this heart, but don't show it, after all, Your Majesty hates people who don't do anything in her job, and she will definitely drive him away like a mouse. ”

Bai Jikao laughed unabashedly, and his sharp words were like a thousand pounds of boulders chiseled into his heart, making Ma Ping's face red and white, and his heart was burning with anger.

Mr. Duanmu seemed much calmer, and there was no word in his eyes except cold disdain. Just a look is enough to make Ma Ping feel better, after all, he used to bully him first, but now how can he stand it by changing his identity.

"What are you talking about?" Hearing Bai Jikao's hearty laughter, Shi Yanshang also rushed over to join in the fun, and glanced at Ma Ping, isn't he the character recommended by Bai Jikao in the main hall? Look at the appearance of a real scholar, but look at the figure and a little strong, it can be said that he is a man who is an all-round man in civil and military affairs, a woman, his first impression is good, and he finally broke the spell of useless scholars.

It's just that today's Ma Ping looks angry, like a demon from hell, fierce and vicious, and faintly reveals a murderous aura, so that Shi Yansheng has to speak carefully and be on guard.

Bai Jikao smiled and responded, "It's nothing, it's just a few words of small talk between friends." Why did the Prime Minister come down so late today, we have been chatting for a long time before you came out, didn't you talk to Your Majesty alone about something? ”

Bai Jikao asked casually, but Shi Yanshang admitted generously without hesitation, "Yes, although this official and His Majesty are monarchs and ministers, they are also sisters." In private, I always have to talk about some short words from parents, and it is good to relieve boredom. ”

When it comes to these, Shi Yanshang is full of sweetness, feeling that he is surrounded by full trust and good people, especially Yan Zigui is the king of a country or always treats himself as a relative, and he feels his own importance, as well as the cordiality between him and Yan Zi without a sense of distance, so once someone asks about her, she always talks proudly about her special feelings with His Majesty.

This is also the envy of many people, especially Bai Jikao. Sometimes he really hopes that he is a girl, and he can be as pure as Shi Yansheng, and become a close friend around Yan Zi, and listen to what she will say to him. Especially the words of his daughter's boudoir are probably not even heard of Sheng Linsheng, a childhood sweetheart, he is very curious about what Yan Zi will be like in private, and after putting aside the gorgeous appearance of the empress, will he like to talk about a beautiful man like ordinary girls, talk about life, talk about marriage or something.

Then he was very curious about what kind of man Yan Zi liked, whether he had a crush on someone, and how much weight he had in her heart.

It's a pity that he can't know these things, thinking of this, his bright eyes can't hide the loss in his heart. But soon it was swept away again, pretending to be nothing, and continuing to talk and laugh.

But these seemingly insignificant words reveal a very important information, letting Ma Ping know that the weak female prime minister in front of him is the key person. Since she is the prime minister and so close to Yan Zidu, it is obvious that as long as she gets closer to her, she can take the opportunity to overwhelm Bai Jikao and them, only by holding on to this big tree steadily, everything will be there in the future.

Therefore, the silent heart gave birth to bad thoughts.

After Bai Jikao and Mr. Duanmu walked away, Ma Ping secretly ran to find Shi Yansheng, and ran to Shi Yansheng's mansion in the name of talking about national affairs and wanted to win her over.

"Prime Minister, don't you feel that the current court is full of internal and external troubles?" Ma Ping suddenly said this, as if a boulder was dropped on the calm lake, stirring up a thousand waves.

Shi Yanshang was originally sitting and drinking tea, and when he heard him say such a pivotal word for no reason, he couldn't help frowning, put down the teacup, and listened to him, "Ma Gongzi's words can be explained, can you explain it." ”

Ma Ping knew that his words aroused Shi Yansheng's interest, and the first step was right, and then it was like digging a trap, after the prey entered the net, the net was closed step by step, and Ma Ping began to talk rhetorically and recite it according to the lines he set.

"Needless to say, everyone knows that Chao Hengguo has been eyeing me all the time, and I don't know how many ways to get rid of us. Let's talk about internal worries, the disagreement between Lord Bai and General Sheng has long been heard in the streets, and now the relationship between the two is not good, and there is another Mr. Duanmu. Mr. Duanmu is Lord Bai's senior brother, he must stand in Lord Bai's perspective to help him speak, so General Sheng is one enemy and two, and no one is happy. Men always want some face, and since they can't have an advantage in numbers, they have to think of overwhelming methods in terms of means, and maybe they may have a secret conspiracy. Therefore, as one of the people in the world, he is also very concerned about the situation of the country. I am worried that the country will be good because of the wind and rain caused by the fun of a few people. ”

Ma Ping talked a lot, it sounded like this, and there was no flaw in one sentence after another, and he had a strong sense of logic, and Shi Yanshang was powerless to refute even if he had the intention to provoke.

After careful recollection, he felt that it was wrong, he was telling the truth, but he didn't understand why a big man attached so much importance to the fight between several officials in the imperial court, and his words and deeds were no different from the shrews who chewed their tongues in the market. It can even be said that he is clearly sowing discord, why is this, why do you want to do this. Isn't he a character recommended by Lord Bai?

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but recall the situation that day, Bai Jikao and Yan Zi recommended Ma Ping that day, and then Yan Zi readily agreed, but Bai Jikao was preoccupied and asked her to confirm that he was in three, and finally Yan Zi agreed to him but was unhappy. After Yan Zi left, he deliberately walked to his side and asked for a few words, asking to be optimistic about Ma Ping, as if he was not particularly confident in him.

Then it's strange, since you have doubts about him, why do you recommend him to the court, is there any ulterior secret in it. In response to this doubt, Shi Yansheng did not dare to act rashly, so he simply pretended to be good with Ma Ping, and then slowly studied the secret between him and Bai Jikao.

And Ma Ping also needs the big tree of Shi Yansheng very much, and the two hit it off and walked around together a lot.

Ma usually goes to Shi Yanshang under the pretext of reciting poems or discussing national affairs, and Shi Yanshang does not object, and the ward has a family member at the door, and if he comes, he will let him in directly. There was a lot of gossip as soon as they came and went, and even a few times Bai Jikao saw his disciples walking towards Shi Yansheng's mansion, and came out very late, and when he came out, his face was still full of smiles. Every time he was seen by himself, he was still very proud, and deliberately put on a sassy expression to show off to himself.

made himself seem to like Shi Yanshang, as if he was jealous, Bai Ji was too lazy to take care of it. It's just that Nian once Shi Yanshang helped manage those disobedient male officials, Bai Jikao couldn't bear to be deceived by this beast, so he decided to make an appointment to talk.

"How is the prime minister doing?" Bai Jikao deliberately asked Shi Yanshang to a secluded place, where the feng shui is pleasant and there is a pavilion to escape the heat, and the fruits on the table are even more fresh and natural, which makes people relax unconsciously. Bai Ji said as he spoke, so he peeled the fruit for Shi Yanshang and handed it to her.

Shi Yanshang took it and tasted it very sweet, but suddenly chewed half of it and stopped, his face solemn.

Bai Jikao wondered, and couldn't help but sneer, "What's wrong?" Are you afraid that I won't be able to poison me? ”

Shi Yanshang shook his head: "That's not true." Lord Bai never poisons people, because your words are enough to poison people speechless. It's like today's strange greeting, if I'm not mistaken, you never seem to care so much about someone, right? And he peeled me so diligently, presumably this is a Hongmen feast, what might as well be said directly, so hiding and tucking me to eat the fruit is tasteless. ”
