Sun Jiao invited a few people to sit down.

He himself sat on the main seat, two on each side, Jiang Lun and Tang Yin sat on one side, and Zhu Hao and Yang Shen sat on the other side.

“…… His Majesty's first ascending to the great treasure, it is the time of employing people, Sun Lao is highly respected in the court, and he was falsely accused by the authority, and was punished by the people of the world, and now Sun Lao is back to the dynasty to set things right, and is destined to become a pillar of the Ming Dynasty. ”

Tang Yin came up and put a high hat on Sun Jiao.

Sun Jiao waved his hand: "The old man is almost ancient, even if he really wants to serve the court, he is powerless, please return to Your Majesty, just say that the old man just wants to go back to his hometown to recuperate, and he is afraid that he will cause chaos to the court when he returns to the court." ”

Next, Tang Yin persuaded him.

As a result, every sentence was pushed back by Sun Jiao, in general, Sun Jiao resolutely refused to return to the court to be an official, and it was useless to persuade him.

Jiang Lun helped in two sentences, but they were all in vain.

Yang Shen and Zhu Hao on the other side were silent throughout the whole process.

Originally, the purpose of coming to see Sun Jiao was different, nominally persuading Sun Jiao to stay, even if Yang Shen had what Yang Tinghe had to say to Sun Jiao, now he couldn't say it because Tang Yin and Jiang Lun were present.

But Yang Shen saw that Sun Jiao was resolute and had to resign no matter what, so he was relieved.

I don't need to do anything at all!

Tang Yin saw that the persuasion was ineffective, so he turned to look at Yang Shen and said, "Young Master Yang, I don't know what you have to say about this matter?" ”

Tang Yin means that we can't persuade you, it's your turn.

You can't watch the show next to you, can you?

Yang Shen said cautiously: "Serving the court should also be done according to one's ability, Sun Lao has made great contributions to the court in the past, which is admirable, and he dare not speak out as a descendant." ”

If you don't come out to persuade you to stay, it is actually equivalent to agreeing with Sun Jiao's resignation.

His sentence "do what you can" actually conveys this meaning, how could Sun Jiao, as an old man in the officialdom, not even understand the words?

Sun Jiao didn't think anything of it, but he was quite surprised to hear Yang Shen's remarks that he almost publicly stated that he would not be an official.

Could it be that you weren't sent by the emperor to persuade me to perform my duties?

So what are you here for?

Persuade me to get out of the capital early?

Tang Yin said: "Then Zhu Hao, what do you think?" ”

Several people's eyes fell on Zhu Hao again.

Zhu Hao smiled and said, "Mr. Tang smiled, what do I think?" However, Yang Hanlin and I were indeed entrusted by Yang Ge Lao to persuade Sun Lao to stay in Beijing...... Time has changed, and I want to learn more about governing the country with old gentlemen like Mr. Sun. ”

seems to persuade Sun Jiao to stay in the court, but no matter how you listen to it, it seems to be helping Yang Shen out of the siege.

Isn't that a bit of a cover-up for what you're saying?

Yang Shen felt relieved when he heard this, he was worried that he was not clear before, and now Zhu Hao helped emphasize the objective reality of "time changes", even if the people present are stupid, they know that I am here to persuade Sun Jiao to leave the dynasty, right?

This Zhu Hao ...... He is very good at talking at a young age, but he is a good seedling who can do things.

Sun Jiao said ashamedly: "Zhu Zhuangyuan is a protégé of the Son of Heaven, and he is only a shallow learner, how can he have the ability to teach you?" ”

"Where, when I was in Anlu, I had read Sun Lao's writings, and I learned that Sun Lao had revised a lot of books in recent years, which was really a grand event in the literary world, and I would definitely study more in the future."

Zhu Hao looked very humble.

Yang Shen felt more comfortable when he heard this.

This kid is already explicit, right? He is asking Old Man Sun to go back to Anlu Jiufeng Mountain to continue to cultivate books and work, don't go back to the court to embarrass people.

Your time is gone.

……

……

The rest of the conversation was not nutritious.

No matter what people on both sides say, in short, Sun Jiao is resolutely reluctant to resign, what do you care about dog eat dog, what do you have to do with me?

Yang Shen saw that the matter was basically closed, and there was no need to leave anything to say, so he got up and said, "Elder Sun, the younger generation still has something to do, please forgive me for not staying here longer." ”

Zhu Hao got up with him, as if he wanted to go together.

Sun Jiao saw it, borrowed the donkey from the slope and gave an order to evict the guests, and said with a smile: "It's better to send you out." ”

Tang Yin glanced at Zhu Hao, and after finding that Zhu Hao's eyes were wrong, he immediately said: "I am waiting for the emperor's order, and I can't leave for the time being, and I want to talk more to Sun Lao." ”

"Huh?"

Zhu Hao pretended to be surprised.

He immediately glanced at Yang Shen, as if asking, we are all leaving, what are these two guys staying here to say, aren't we at a loss?

Yang Shen immediately understood what Zhu Hao meant, and raised his hand: "Zhu Hao, aren't you from Xingwangfu?" It's better to stay and talk to the two old ones, I'll go first......"

"This ...... All right. ”

Zhu Hao immediately went out of the house to send Yang Shen.

Yang Shen glanced at Zhu Hao, meaning that you should keep an eye on what they say, and tell me when you turn around.

……

……

Sun Jiao got up to send Yang Shen out of the house, but did not continue to send him to the front of the house.

Zhu Hao sent a few more steps, but was sent back early by Yang Shen.

Wait for Yang Shen to leave......

The atmosphere in the room changed suddenly, Jiang Lun looked at Zhu Hao with a smile, and even Tang Yin was not as serious as before.

"Bohu, Meng Zai, you don't have to say it, the old man has made up his mind, there is really no need to bother with his words, everyone has their own ambitions......" Sun Jiao was afraid that Tang Yin and Jiang Lun would stalk him again, so he simply expressed his attitude, it is useless for you to say anything, it is better to leave as soon as Yang Yongxiu does.

Jiang Lun squinted at Zhu Hao, and then looked at Tang Yin: "This ...... We really don't know what to say, why don't we have a chat with Mr. Zhu and Mr. Sun alone? Brother Bohu, let's wait outside first? ”

"Huh!?"

Sun Jiao suddenly felt that this situation was a bit strange.

From Jiang Lun's different names for Zhu Hao and Tang Yin, he felt that something was wrong.

He was also very strange before, why Zhu Hao came with Yang Shen, instead of Tang Yin and Jiang Lun.

Now this posture is clearly that Jiang Lun and Tang Yin are not the envoys who came to persuade them, but they are more like deputy envoys, but who are the envoys? Could it be Zhu Hao?

……

……

Jiang Lun and Tang Yin got up and went to the courtyard outside.

Sun Jiao looked at Zhu Hao inexplicably.

Zhu Hao did not sit down, and bowed his hand respectfully to Sun Jiao.

Sun Jiaodao: "Zhu Gongzi, when the old man was in Anlu, I have heard a lot of your deeds, you are my first Ming Dynasty champion of the sixth yuan, and his talent is comparable to today's pavilion old Yang Jiefu, he was also a twelve-year-old Zhongju person, but he was much later than you. ”

Zhu Hao said: "Old Sun, you should have heard the first king mention me, right?" ”

Sun Jiao was stunned.

Thinking that when he saw Zhu Hao before, his expression was abnormal, so he probably guessed that Zhu Hao guessed it at that time.

"Hmm."

Sun Jiao did not conceal it, "At the beginning, the old man was in Jiufeng Mountain, and he often exchanged letters with King Xing, and he mentioned many people and things in Xingfu, and at that time you had been admitted to the middle school, he mentioned you, of course, it was only a rough introduction, and he did not talk about it deeply. ”

Zhu Hao said: "Then Sun Lao should know that I am a member of the Zhu family of Jinyi Wei, and my father is the loyal and righteous general Zhu Wangong, and my Zhu family was ordered by the emperor to move to Anlu and be responsible for supervising the Xingwang Mansion." ”

Sun Jiao smiled and waved his hand: "These pasts have nothing to do with decay. ”

Zhu Hao said: "Then why do you think Your Majesty wants to summon Sun Lao into the court?" ”

"Huh?"

Sun Jiao didn't understand why Zhu Hao would ask such a two-handed question.

Why did you summon me to the court?

Of course, let me come back as an official.

Is this called a problem?

Zhu Hao pointed in the direction of the door: "Yang Gongzi's attitude before, Sun Lao should also see it, but now just because Sun Lao was born in Anlu, even if he has a deep friendship with Yang Ge Lao and is a highly qualified minister, Yang Ge Lao still doesn't want Sun Lao to return to the court." A peek at the leopard in the tube shows how isolated and helpless His Majesty is in the court...... The ministers of the Manchu Dynasty were entrusted by none of them. ”

Sun Jiao frowned.

It's not like he hasn't thought about it.

But it is precisely because of the contradictions between the emperor and Wenchen that he doesn't want to get entangled in it, does the emperor let me come back as cannon fodder?

Zhu Hao said: "Could it be that Your Majesty asked Sun Lao to return to the court and do his best?" In the following view, it is not also ...... Your Majesty just wants to have someone who can speak well in the court, at least the Manchu Dynasty will not be a person who has no friends at a glance. As long as Sun Lao stands in the court, His Majesty can be at ease. ”

Compared with Tang Yin's previous big truths, Zhu Hao's words can be said to hit the hearts of the people.

But this was not enough to convince Sun Jiao.

After all, Sun Jiao's attitude is resolute, how can you change it with three or two sentences?

"Sun Lao had rejected King Xing's kindness earlier, and now His Majesty is isolated, and he wants Sun Lao to support him, which is like when a child is bullied, he finds someone close to him to complain, but Sun Lao does not appreciate it, so do you always think that you can still live with peace of mind in the future?"

Zhu Hao's words made Sun Jiao's face change immediately.

This kid......

How dare you threaten me?

"Zhu Gongzi, what are you talking about...... It seems to have a deep meaning, and it is not very pertinent. Sun Jiao put away the kind smile he had before, and looked at Zhu Hao with a serious face instead.

Zhu Hao smiled: "Isn't this called pertinent? Then I'll tell you something unpleasant...... Maybe Your Majesty just wants to use Sun Lao's reputation to deter those bulls, ghosts, snakes and gods in the court, and even Your Majesty never thought that Sun Lao would accommodate him in everything in the court......"

Sun Jiao frowned: "What do you mean by this?" ”

Zhu Hao continued to smile: "Elder Sun might as well think about it again, why did he come to visit with Elder Yang Ge's eldest son?" In fact, Zai Xia is now a member of the Yang family, and Yang Gongzi relies very heavily on Zaixia, inquiring about everything, and even signing my name in the first one on some joint recitals against His Majesty's opinions. ”

"Huh?"

Sun Jiao was confused.

Since you kid has become a member of Yang Tinghe faction, why do you still persuade me to leave this old bone in the court?

Which side are you on?

If you are really a person with Yang Tinghe, why did Jiang Lun and Tang Yin deliberately avoid it and let you talk to me?

"Elder Sun, don't you understand? In fact, as long as I wait in the court and can help His Majesty make suggestions, even if I stand on the opposite side of some major matters, Your Majesty will not only not blame, but will be very pleased, because Your Majesty does not want a villain who is only a promise, but someone who can really think about the Ming Dynasty and the new emperor. ”

Zhu Hao said something that Sun Jiao couldn't understand.

You have stood on the opponent's side in major matters, and you still say that you think about the new emperor?

Is the new emperor very pleased with this?

Am I talking to someone today?

Why can't I understand a word of what this kid said?
