[Chapter 1: The Crane Hair Like Silk] (3)

Listening to Li Longji's angry words, the more he talked, the more unspeakable he became, Xiao Jiangyuan poured him a cup of tea: "Everyone is angry." Zhang Xianggong has been depressed for many years, and he raised his eyebrows for a while, and there are some people who are too public. Tonight, the minister has said so obviously, I think Zhang Xianggong can understand, and he will definitely be restrained, so it is better to ...... Let's take a look and make a decision after a while? Didn't you say that you hope to be with Zhang Xianggong and his ministers forever like that day? ”

Li Longji stared at the tea that Xiao Jiangyuan held to himself, and didn't answer it for a while: "He's the prime minister...... You've been doing this for three years, right? ”

Xiao Jiangyuan's heart sank, but he heard Li Longji sigh and said, "Okay, at the end of the year, the annual election will start again, and I will take a look at him again." If he really relents, it doesn't hurt to be the prime minister for another year and a half, and then retire safely like the Duke of Yao and Song Gong, and I and his ministers will still be the same as we were back then. ”

On this night, not everyone went back to their residence after the banquet, Zhang said so, and so did Zhang Jiuling. Seeing Zhang Shuo following the Son of Heaven's guard of honor, he wanted to follow, but was suddenly lightly bumped into by someone. He moved a few steps away and stood firmly, and when he looked closely, it was Li Linfu, who had almost no intersection in the past.

Li Linfu's cheeks were full of light, his steps were a little unsteady, but his attitude was very sincere, and he hurriedly apologized to Zhang Jiuling. Zhang Jiuling naturally didn't take this little accident to heart, after the two sides greeted him, he wanted to say goodbye and leave immediately, but he didn't want Li Linfu to hold him and greet him.

He has always had a peaceful temperament, rarely refuses others, and no matter how anxious he is for a while, he has no choice but to go with Li Linfu. When Li Linfu left, he followed and wanted to pull Zhang Shuo back, but it was too late.

A feeling of discomfort suddenly appeared in his heart, which only made him feel that something was wrong, but he couldn't figure out what was wrong for a while.

β€”β€”Zhang Jiuling was in too much of a hurry, so he didn't see it, Li Linfu straightened up after he turned around, no longer vain, his eyes were clear, and his smile was meaningful.

And this scene happened to fall in Yu Wenrong's eyes.

As soon as Li Linfu turned around, he saw Yu Wenrong looking at him with a smile. Knowing that his actions had been discovered, Li Linfu was not in a hurry, and walked generously in front of Yuwenrong and arched his hand, saying, "Yuwen is polite. Fang Cai Xia is just doing his best, hoping to help Yuwen Gong replace Zhang Xianggong as soon as possible and become the master of Zhongshu. ”

Yu Wenrong's eyes lit up: "Where do you start with this?" ”

According to his imagination, it should be Li Linfu who should pretend to be stupid at this time, if he wasn't Yu Wenrong, he might have given him this face tonight, and both of them were vague. Unexpectedly, this Li Linfu was so anti-customer-oriented, so excessively frank, but he didn't know how to answer for a while, and took the initiative to pretend to be stupid.

Li Linfu invited Yuwenrong to his residence, and smiled at the corners of his eyebrows: "After sealing the Zen, Zhang Xianggong will provoke the anger of the public, if he is cautious, instead of proudly showing his edge, he can keep the favor of the saint, then the anger of the hundred officials is nothing to him, but tonight, it seems that Zhang Xianggong will also fall out of favor with the saint." The saint is the son of the saint, and he will not judge the prime minister of a country because of his personal likes and dislikes, but Zhang Xianggong himself has been dulled by his conceit, so he is at the table, presumably Yuwen Gong also sees it.

The funny thing is that Zhang Xianggong is not slow enough, and he can still feel the dissatisfaction of the saint, so he keeps up with the saint's guard of honor, and wants to go to the side to determine whether his position in the saint's heart is shaken, and by the way, consolidate the relationship between the saint and him. It's a pity that no matter what he does, nothing will work. Not to mention that he, the prime minister, has already achieved the extreme, and the ministers always make the Son of Heaven suspicious, only saying that the saint's dissatisfaction was planted as early as the day he got off Mount Tai, and he only remembered to take care of the saint's emotions now, it was too late.

At present, he only has the only way to go, and Zhang Sheren also knows this. As early as a few years ago, Zhang Sheren was introduced by Zhang Xianggong as the same clan, and he was also Zhang Xianggong's think tank on weekdays, once he really stopped Zhang Xianggong, it was a turning point in Zhang Xianggong's crisis. The reason why the lower officials stopped Zhang Sheren was to make this turnaround invisible. Zhang Xianggong couldn't be better, he did what he wanted, he said what he wanted, and what went wrong completely angered the sage. ”

This is said to Yuwen Rong's heart. Yu Wenrong and Li Linfu both stepped into the officialdom with hard work or shadow, and belonged to the faction of capable ministers in the court, while those who passed the imperial examination such as Zhang Shuo belonged to the faction of Wenchen. The two factions have always looked at each other, Wenchen dislikes Nengchen for being uneducated and sharp-minded, and Nengchen is disgusted with Wenchen's sour and unrealistic. In the past, Yao Chong was a capable minister, with a strong wrist and suppressed the court, Song Jing was a civil minister, and he pursued Yao Chong's rule with a strong iron backbone, which convinced the ministers, but what did he say?

When Yu Wenrong first covered the fields and persuaded the farmers, he was constrained by Zhang Shuo everywhere because of his excessive power, and later Zhang Shuo simply set up the Zhongshu Sect to expand the power of the prime minister, and Shengsheng put him as an envoy who was not in the five elements, and also included him in the jurisdiction of the prime minister. This is enough to make Yuwenrong disgusting, not long after that, what kind of Lizheng Academy was set up in the palace, and a few days later, it was renamed Jixian Academy, which recruited a group of bachelors, saying that they wanted to repair books?

I heard that before the sage went to Mount Tai, he also set up a banquet in the Jixian Palace to entertain the scholars, saying that "the banquet with Qing and other sages is here, and it is advisable to change the Jixian Hall to the Jixian Palace." Jixian, isn't that Luo Weaving talent? This has greatly improved the status of Wenchen.

Zhang said that this guy is really too much! On the surface, he helped the saint to carry forward the rule of culture, but in fact, he used his power for personal gain, vowing to let the limelight of the civil servants completely overshadow the capable ministers. They are capable of ministers, they may lack the ability to deserve the word "capable ministers", but they are all down-to-earth, relying on actual achievements to climb up little by little, they Wenchen wrote a few lines of poetry and repaired a few books and flew to the front of them, Yu Wenrong was unwilling.

What made Yu Wenrong most indignant was that he said that he was clearly a person who was a man of literature and ability, and he didn't work hard, just by virtue of him writing some brilliant inscriptions, could he have today? But he only relied on his identity as a leader in the literary world, and pressed the hard-working ministers again and again. This is public and private, new hatred and old hatred, all of which made Yu Wenrong make up his mind to deal with Zhang Shuo.

Yu Wenrong is so shrewd, and he is a clear bystander, in fact, he saw Li Linfu's purpose early on. He couldn't help but be surprised and surprised, surprised that there was such a number one person in the Imperial History Tower, and he had never noticed it as a member of the Imperial History; What is surprising is that he is just that, this Li Linfu's official position is still low, but he dares to leverage the position of the prime minister of the dynasty with his own strength, should he say that he is not able to measure himself when he is a car, or should he say that he is scheming and takes precautions?

Yu Wenrong knew very well that if he hadn't discovered Li Linfu's actions, Li Linfu would not have taken the initiative to find him and say what Fang Cai said. In other words, the so-called helping him and wanting the Nengchen faction to have the same success as him Yu Wenrong is likely to be just a temporary lie, not from Li Linfu's sincerity.

But Yu Wenrong didn't care. First, Li Linfu has the same goal as him; Second, after all, the reality is that Li Linfu got the stolen goods in front of him, even if there is a falsehood in his words, it is true that Li Linfu surrendered to him, and it is better to have one more helper than one more enemy; Third, he really likes Li Linfu very much.

React quickly, make quick decisions, and be really terrifying! After a few more years of training, he will be able to take charge of himself and draw a strong stroke for Nengchen in this court.

Since Li Linfu said that he was helping him, he should give this favor and help Li Linfu as well.

After the monarchs and ministers settled down in the eastern capital of Luoyang, Yu Wenrong recommended Li Linfu to Li Longji and asked him to return to the Imperial History Platform and serve as the Imperial History Zhongcheng with him.

There are often cases of recommending officials in the DPRK and China, not to mention anything else in the civil and military affairs, and the heart of cherishing and loving talents abounds, and in this regard, it is often possible to achieve the greatest degree of selflessness, so Li Longji is not surprised. He already valued Yu Wenrong, so he did not hesitate to listen to Yu Wenrong's recommendation.

Xiao Jiangyuan smiled on his lips and had a deep opinion - to Chengyu Wenrong, he Li Linfu really made a good move.

Zhang Jiuling is a member of the Zhongshu House, except for another Zhongshu member who is on duty and on duty at night, he must always follow Li Longji in order to prepare in time. Yu Wenrong was on duty when he came to recommend the official, and this letter to promote Li Linfu happened to come from him.

While writing, Zhang Jiuling couldn't help but think of a rare intersection between him and Li Linfu a few nights ago. He finally understood where his discomfort was coming from. He knew that Li Linfu's approach that night was very abrupt and suspicious, and he also wondered if Li Linfu did it on purpose, but in the end he denied it. He originally thought that Zhang Shuo was out of reach for Li Linfu, and he had never had a holiday, and Li Linfu had no motive or need to do so, but he ignored that Li Linfu could also become someone else's henchman. Even if he may not have been that night, but right now, he must be.

At this time, Li Linfu was also in the hall, and when he saw that Zhang Jiuling didn't say anything, he wrote directly, although he knew that this would be the result, but he was still quietly relieved - there was no evidence to prove that he had bad intentions that night, even if Zhang Jiuling told Li Longji, it was just a one-sided statement. And according to his observation and understanding of Zhang Jiuling, this outstanding Lang Jun is actually very stylish, and he will never allow himself to hinder other people's careers by suing such villains.

The court is like a battlefield, if he Zhang Jiuling really has the heart to win or lose, he will also use his political achievements to win you openly, not to mention that he is dedicated to the public?

In the imperial history, it is on the fifth grade.

Zhang Jiuling is a member of the middle school, and he is also an official in the fifth grade.

At this point, Zhang Jiuling and Li Linfu, a pair of characters who seem to be old enemies, finally began to sit on an equal footing, and in the next few years, they will gradually be evenly matched and confronted.

In the Xuanzong Dynasty, the cruel and fierce decisive battle between Wenchen and Nengchen officially kicked off at this moment.
