Zhang Anshi said goodbye to the crown prince and immediately returned to Nanzhen Fusi.

Chen Li saw Zhang Anshi, drooped his head, Zhang Anshi sat down, glanced at him, and said, "How are things going?" ”

Chen Li smiled bitterly and said, "Grandpa, things are getting bigger. ”

"It's a big deal?" Zhang Anshi glanced at Chen Li again, raised his eyebrows and said, "What kind of Dafa?" ”

Chen Li said: "The scholars in the capital are now discussing, and there are hundreds of officials involved...... This is the ...... Apparently someone is fueling the trouble......"

Zhang Anshi did not find this strange.

Because of the whole thing, the problems involved are more serious.

Although everyone doesn't know why the crown prince opened the palace to supervise the country, what does His Majesty mean.

But here's the point...... Personnel.

Yes, people is a matter of vital importance, and it involves power, and it involves the right to speak.

In terms of personnel, although the ministers are light on the surface, they are actually tightly gripped, such as the imperial court's court push system, where ministers often provide the emperor with three candidates: A, B, and C.

The Emperor seems to have a choice of three options. But in reality, at least one of the three ...... It is the emperor who will never choose, and the other two must have someone to accompany the list, and someone is the main one.

The court push is the public discussion of the ministers above the third grade, and it is the will of the ministers who implement it.

Once the emperor had other ideas and undermined the system, it meant that a large number of ministers who were not the same number as them would enter the temple.

This is fatal to the entire group of ministers.

The public recommendation of the East Palace does not seem to be important, but Zhang Anshi's proposal of another candidate is tantamount to setting a precedent.

Once this precedent is set out, it means that the right to nominate is lost.

Losing the right to nominate is essentially the same as losing the right to decide.

Because of this, Zhang Anshi suddenly came to the public promotion meeting in the East Palace, which made everyone unexpected, first the ministers did not like it, and then ...... Shilin also began to make a fuss.

Many readers began to pay attention to this matter, some wrote poems, some wrote articles that were yin and yang, and some were directly loud and noisy.

As for Qin Zhengxue and Yang Pu on the cusp.

This Qin Zhengxue is still sitting firmly in Diaoyutai, because Zhang Anshi and Yang Pu's opponent is not his small housekeeper, but the entire Ming court, who is a scholar in the world.

Yang Pu was completely stunned, and after returning home, he immediately reported his illness so as not to cause public outrage.

But even so, many people still came to the door, and many people were indignant, advising Yang Pu not to mess with people like Zhang Anshi, and to have the integrity of a scholar.

Yang Pu is speechless, he wants to say that this matter has nothing to do with him, and people don't believe it, otherwise why doesn't Zhang Anshi recommend others, so he has to recommend him?

Zhang Anshi, such a fortunate minister, of course, likes to form a party for personal gain. Who are Zhang Anshi's henchmen...... Isn't it you, who is Yang Pu?

Yang Pu is a smart person, and at this time, there is no way to explain, so he didn't say anything.

Rather, they are waiting patiently.

He is a patient man. Because he knows very well that it won't be long before things will be clear.

This caused public outrage.

Public indignation means that even if there is a brocade guard, the reader still scolds in front of him.

The captain threatened to take someone, but the other party laughed, come, arrest!

I can't wait to stuff myself to the captain of the brocade guard.

If you Jinyiwei arrests someone, it will be better, and in a moment, your fame will shock the world.

Chen Li felt aggrieved, but he still held back and asked the lieutenants below not to act rashly.

Because once you start arresting people, it will be out of control, and when the time comes, not only will you not be able to help Wei Guogong, but you may also be unhelpful.

This is actually the difference between a real henchman and a false henchman, a real henchman will consider the consequences of the matter and make a choice that is beneficial to Zhang Anshi.

If it is a false henchman, as soon as he sees such a good thing, he will immediately take someone, so that he can appear to be able to do things in front of Wei Guogong.

At this time, Chen Li's eyebrows were full of worry, and he said: "Grandpa, things are very bad, and even the princes of Wenyuan Pavilion and the six radicals have a lot of complaints about this. ”

Zhang Anshi said: "Other people can bear it, but Qin Zhengxue is a person, I can't bear it." ”

Chen Li said helplessly: "It's humble, this person has no bad deeds during his tenure in Hanlin and Zhan Shifu. ”

Zhang Anshi said: "Maybe there will be one in the future?" ”

Chen Li: "......"

When Chen Li heard this, he should have 10,000 grass and mud horses running over in his heart, isn't this unnecessary?

But Zhang Anshi smiled bitterly in his heart, because ...... Although it is unnecessary, but Yongle is the first corrupt official, if this Qin Zhengxue says the first, no one dares to say the second! After this guy came to power, he was almost a typical example of asking for money and shamelessness, and he was crazy to the extreme.

If such a person becomes a bachelor of Zhan Shifu and assumes the duties of a scholar similar to that of the Chinese Yuange University of the East Palace, then can he pay it back?

And His Majesty is also watching, if the East Palace can't even handle the personnel, then what else do you want the East Palace to open, and what do you want?

Zhang Anshi thought for a while and said, "Really? Person...... Nothing bad? ”

Chen Li said very honestly: "In addition to studying, there are no other evil deeds, not only that, but he is also kind to people on weekdays, and many people admire him very much, such as Hu Gong...... Because he was the same year as him, he also took a lot of care of him. ”

Zhang Anshi squinted and said, "You mean to ...... This Qin Zhengxue...... Determined to win, we have to pinch our noses and admit it? ”

Chen Li said earnestly: "If Grandpa doesn't like this person, let's find a way in the future." It's just that this time, I'm afraid I won't be able to stop him, so Xia Guan asked the people in Weili to study it...... 'M afraid...... I really can't stop it. ”

Zhang Anshi said with a little annoyance: "Public recommendation, public recommendation...... Isn't this who has someone above and who has a good relationship, and everyone pushes whom? How unreasonable! ”

Chen Lidao: "The dynasty has its own rules and ......"

Zhang Anshi obviously didn't have the patience to listen to Chen Li's words at this time, and said suddenly: "What do you think of Yang Pu?" ”

Chen Li paused for a moment, and then said: "This person is not obvious, and he is quite low-key on weekdays......"

Zhang Anshi said again: "Where is Qin Zhengxue from?" ”

"My ancestral home is Jiangxi, and I live in Cixi, Zhejiang."

Zhang Anshi: "......"

Zhang Anshi said: "Transfer his information, I'll take a look." ”

A moment later, a document arrived in front of Zhang Anshi.

After Zhang Anshi saw it, he said: "His father has seven concubines? ”

Chen Li said: "This public is known as the first good in the local area. ”

"Another great good man."

Zhang Anshi shook his head: "I don't have much in the Ming Dynasty, but there are many good people, and everyone is a good person." ”

As he spoke, Zhang Anshi squinted, and after looking at it carefully, he said, "Good man...... Well-doer...... Let's do something......"

Zhang Anshi glanced at Chen Li meaningfully, but said, "You can arrange this matter." ”

After that, he gave a detailed order.

Chen Li opened his eyes slightly and said, "There is really such a ...... of effectiveness."

Zhang Anshi patted him on the shoulder and said, "You guy, what do you want, go quickly." ”

As he spoke, he said, "Come on, prepare a car for me, by the way, find more guards." ”

Zhang Anshi immediately appeared outside the mansion where Yang Pu lived.

This is a small courtyard, and it is not easy to live in Nanjing, especially a Qingliu official like Yang Pu.

Zhang Anshi asked people to pay their respects.

Yang Pu personally came out to greet him.

"I've seen Wei Guogong."

Zhang Anshi laughed and held his arm affectionately.

This made Yang Pu resistant.

Zhang Anshi seemed to see his mood and said, "Mr. Yang doesn't seem to like me coming?" ”

Yang Pu said: "How dare you." ”

said this, but he laughed bitterly in his heart, what is this, this remnant of the party can be regarded as a real thing.

While walking inside, Zhang Anshi said, "What are Mr. Yang's plans at this time?" ”

"No intentions."

"No plans?" Zhang Anshi said: "I recommend you because I think you are talented. ”

Zhang Anshi said very seriously: "It's an eventful time now, and my brother-in-law needs talented and loyal people to assist him, so I risk the world's disapproval and recommend Mr." ”

Yang Pu said: "Thank you for your kind words. ”

He didn't even want to call Grandpa.

is called Wei Guogong, and he is unfamiliar.

Zhang Anshizi also tasted a little meaning, and said with a smile: "You must have concerns." Afraid of people saying that you are in collusion with me? ”

Yang Pu was silent.

Zhang Anshi said again: "The eldest husband is alive, he only does the right thing, as for what others think, why should he care so much?" You are in Nanjing, you don't live well, and you want to live weekdays. ”

Yang Pu nodded truthfully and said: "It is indeed not easy to live in the capital, but Xiaguan is already better than the vast majority of people in the world." ”

Zhang Anshi said: "The problem is here, even you are worried about three meals a day, those who are not as good as you, what kind of life are they living." You are a Jinshi, and you have a great future in the future, and you don't have to worry about your future. But the military and civilians of the world, how can you have such luck? ”

Yang Pu glanced at Zhang Anshi very seriously and said, "Wei Guogong seems to care about people's livelihood very much? ”

Zhang Anshi said: "When you see me going out, why do you wear armor and stomach?" ”

"I want to hear about it."

Zhang Anshi said very honestly: "Because it's not safe." You let the people of the world have a bad life, and you dare to wear Confucian shirts to go out, which is an extremely dangerous thing. ”

Yang Puguaner, invited Zhang Anshi to the middle hall, invited Zhang Anshi to sit down, and said: "Wei Guogong is here, what is the matter?" ”

Zhang Anshi said: "The position of a scholar in Zhan Shifu must be Mr., this is what I mean, and it is also what my brother-in-law means." ”

"Qin Sheren is rich in learning and five cars, and his qualifications are enough, so the lower officials think they are ......"

Zhang Anshi shook his head: "I think this Qin Zhengxue is just a local chicken and a dog, if such a person presides over the East Palace, it will be harmful." ”

Yang Pu was silent again.

He didn't want to talk about right and wrong in front of Zhang Anshi, not to mention that this topic was also very sensitive at this time.

And Zhang Anshi also looked at Yang Pu, the reason why he came cheekily was because he wanted to gamble.

Bet that this Yang Pu is ambitious, and he is by no means willing to live under others. also bet that Yang Pu has the ambition to take the world as his own responsibility.

So Zhang Anshi said again: "Has Mr. been to Qixia?" ”

"Been there a few times."

"That's how people's livelihood is."

"Not bad."

Zhang Anshi said: "Qixia can be good, why can't other states and counties in the world?" ”

Yang Pu said: "This is different. ”

"Actually, it's the same." Zhang Anshi said: "The most important thing is whether you dare to do it, and whether you are willing to do it with your heart." Now His Majesty has ordered the crown prince to open the mansion, I think ...... This is His Majesty's intention to weigh the crown prince, it seems that ...... It's time for a big move. On the East Palace side, there is a need for a person who can overcome obstacles, is willing to work hard, and acts well-behaved and will not make mistakes. ”

"Why did you choose the lower officials?"

Zhang Anshi smiled and said, "I said that I know how to meet people, do you believe it?" ”

Yang Pu also smiled.

Zhang Anshi said: "If Mr. only cares about his own reputation and is afraid of what others will say, then I have nothing to say." But if Mr. really wants to do something, I hope that Mr. can fight for one or two. ”

Zhang Anshi immediately took out a charter from his sleeve and said, "This is what I want to do in Taiping Mansion, it's just ...... After all, my talent is limited, and there are some places that must be inconsiderate, so you can take a look. ”

As he spoke, Zhang Anshi put the charter on the coffee table.

Yang Pu didn't look at the charter, but nodded and said, "The lower officials will read it in their spare time." ”

Zhang Anshi's work this trip was finished, so he stood up and said, "Then I will leave, if there is a chance, we can have a good chat." ”

Yang Pu hurriedly got up to send him off.

Until Zhang Anshi left and Yang Pu returned to the hall, Mrs. Yang walked out of the ear room on the side.

Mrs. Yang said worriedly: "Husband, this Weiguo Gong ......"

"Hey......" Yang Pu shook his head and said, "This is not to hit the south wall and not look back." ”

Mrs. Yang said: "I heard from outsiders that the husband and the prince of Wei Guo ...... In collusion, many people have no good words in their mouths, and some of their husbands' peers and classmates, as well as fellow villagers, are beating their chests when they talk about it. Husband, be a man...... Pay attention to the long-term, not the temporary pros and cons, the husband must be cautious. ”

Yang Pu slowly closed his eyes and said, "I wash the horse, and it doesn't show the dew, how can He De be so valued by others!" Don't worry, I know in my heart, of course I care about my innocence. ”

As he spoke, he sat down, picked up the charter left by Zhang Anshi, opened it, and looked at it carefully.

At a glance, Yang Pu couldn't help but shake his head: "It's too hasty, it's too hasty." ”

He continued to watch, but was silent.

The more I looked at it, the whole person seemed to be in thought.

Mrs. Yang looked at it curiously and couldn't help but ask, "What is this?" ”

Yang Pu was unaware.

Mrs. Yang had no choice but to call again: "Husband, ......"

Yang Pu raised his head blankly and glanced at Mrs. Yang.

"Husband, this is ......"

Yang Pu said: "This charter ...... It's too sloppy. ”

"It's not easy for a factory guard to write a charter, how can it be leaky? Husband...... Don't laugh at him. ”

Yang Pu said: "But ......"

He didn't continue, and his face looked extremely complicated.

Mrs. Yang looked at Yang Pu's strange reaction, and said with concern: "What's wrong with the husband?" ”

"Nothing, nothing." Yang Pu shook his head and smiled reluctantly: "I just think it's ridiculous." ”

Night.

Mrs. Yang had already fallen asleep, but Yang Pu picked up the oil lamp, shoes and clothes.

He couldn't sleep, so he held the lamp, took the charter again, and looked at it carefully.

He groaned, as if he had settled down, and after deep thought, he took pen and ink and began to delete and revise the charter.

It wasn't until the rooster crows that he seemed to be awakened.

When he realized that he hadn't slept all night, he smiled wryly and shook his head.

Mrs. Yang had already woken up, got down in her clothes, and glared at Yang Pu angrily: "What's the matter?" Husband, you won't really be like what the outside world says, you want to act for the tiger, right? ”

Yang Pu hurriedly said: "No, no, I and Wei Guogong are not all the way." ”

He hurriedly put away the charter.

It's just that the words he speaks, there is some lack of confidence.

Mrs. Yang was obviously not at ease, so she said: "Husband, I didn't say you, how many people who have always clinged to powerful ministers like Wei Guogong will have a good end?" Scholars have the way of scholars, you are now a clear stream, unspeakably expensive, as long as you boil your qualifications, wait for a few years...... My father explained that when a scholar enters the court, he should keep his mind when he is young, and his future prospects are limitless. ”

Yang Pu said: "I naturally know, it's just ......"

Speaking of this, Yang Pu paused, he was silent for a moment, and then said: "It's just an itchy hand, I want to change it, hey......"

…………

Cixi.

The group of merchants arrived, but were stopped by the messengers.

Under the investigation, it was found that this was a pharmacist from the capital, and the pharmacist obediently wanted to send silver.

As soon as the silver was sent out, the face of the chief officer immediately changed, and he showed a greedy look.

In fact, these errand servants, who know the most about words and feelings, if they are businessmen with backgrounds, they will not stuff the silver at the beginning, but directly take out a post, and after everyone has read it, they will not dare to be embarrassed.

And those who generally pay money and send silver immediately often indicate that the other party has no background and is weak-hearted.

But the head of the capital took an iron ruler, opened the merchant's silver, and scolded: "Who wants your money?" ”

The other party gave a lot of silver, which was dozens of silver dollars.

If the other party gives a few silver dollars, it will be enough, but giving so many at once, immediately let this head realize that this batch of goods is ...... It's worth a lot of money.

He licked his lips and said, "What kind of business are you doing?" ”

"The villain is a medicine dealer."

"Medicine, what medicine?"

"Tianzhu Divine Oil."

It's all confusing.

"It's ......," the businessman's voice grew lower and lower.

"Is there such a miracle medicine?"

"The small one is the ancestral secret recipe, and the child is not bullied."

Dutou and several servants glanced at each other: "Search and see." ”

A few of the officers understood, and immediately began to search.

After a while, a knife was revealed, and they all said angrily, "What is this? ”

Shang Jia panicked: "Villain, villain, official, isn't this a joke?" ”

"Come, take him down, and...... Surrender the goods. ”

…………

Cixi Qin family.

A wandering Taoist to the Qin Mansion.

These days, this Qin Taigong often has headaches, so he asked this person to see a doctor.

The Taoist was quite skilled in medicine and told him that it was high blood pressure.

High blood pressure, this is something that Mrs. Qin has never heard of, these days, he is mentally exhausted, occasionally has headaches, and invited many doctors to come, but it is just perfunctory, prescribing some medicines, but the effect of the medicine is average.

This humane: "After a few days, the poor Tao will practice some medicine." ”

With that, he took his leave and left.

Qin Taigong was sullen, and at this time, a servant came and said, "Master, master...... Liu Xiancheng in the county sent some good things, saying that they were treasures. ”

Mrs. Qin said fairly: "What baby? ”

"It is said ......" This person came to Qin Taigong and whispered something.

Qin Taigong showed a meaningful look: "It's really a miracle?" ”

These days, he is mentally exhausted, and he really can't lift his spirits, let alone get old.

It's just that...... This did make him a little painful, because there were so many concubines in the family, and the youngest one was only seventeen years old, which was still accepted the year before, and now it ...... is not energetic, and seeing this begonia-like woman, she is really unwilling.

"When I heard about this medicine, it also cured headaches...... Lifts the spirits. ”

"Really?" Qin Taigong was a little interested: "I went to thank Liu Xiancheng, and in a few days, the old man went to the county and invited him to have a drink." ”

"Liu Xiancheng is diligent, I heard that ...... The young master is in the capital, and he is about to ......"

When Qin Taigong thought of his son, he couldn't help but feel a little proud, and he said leisurely: "Okay, don't make a show of it now." ”

"Yes."

That night, Qin Taigong was really full of energy.

A pear tree presses a begonia, and it is extremely happy.

In the second half of the night, Qin Taigong was still like a wolf.

It seems that he has been suffocating for the past two years, so he can't help but indulge himself wantonly for a long time.

In the second half of the night, I fell asleep with a tired hugging begonia.

The next morning, someone came to call the door.

But there was no sound inside.

After a stick of incense, the entire Qin family was in a mess.

…………

A letter was sent to Zhu Di.

After Zhu Di saw it, he looked up at Yishu and said, "The bachelor of the East Palace, hasn't it been released publicly?" ”

Yisha said: "The dispute is not over, Wei Guogong refuses to give in, His Royal Highness the Prince...... It seems that he also likes Yang Pu, but ......"

Zhu Di said: "Just what? ”

"There was too much trouble outside, and at first everyone's spearhead was still pointing at Wei Guogong, but now it's ...... The spearhead has been pointed at His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, Your Majesty...... The slave maid thought that it was better to settle things and calm people...... If not......"

Zhu Di's face turned pale: "I am letting him build teeth, not to let him be a daughter-in-law, a dignified prince, and will he be popular?" ”

He was so frightened that he didn't dare to come out.

Zhu Di said: "If you can't even deal with this properly, then ...... How can you do other things? ”

Yishu said: "Yes, what Your Majesty said is extreme. ”

Zhu Di said: "I have great expectations for the prince, the last time I applied for him, it was because he spoke badly, and when he did things, he would do it neatly, what's the use of scolding people?" Give an order to the prince and teach him to come up with ideas quickly. ”

"The slave obeys." also lost his shame.

This is the ...... It's very troublesome, he actually wants to tell His Majesty that now that it's a big trouble, and the prince continues to forcibly confront the ministers, which will only discredit the prince.

But he didn't dare to say much, he knew that since His Majesty was like this, then there must be His Majesty's reasoning.

The next day, the crown prince Zhu Gaochi held another public push.

This time, it is clear that many people are working hard.

Qin Zhengxue and his ministers arrived at Zhan Shifu with triumph and saluted Zhu Gaochi.

Immediately, I saw that Zhang Anshi was still sitting there, and Zhang Anshi was sitting under Zhu Gaochi, looking calm and relaxed.

Qin Zhengxue sneered in his heart, this Wei Guogong is still too tender, he doesn't know how thick the sky is, he really thinks that he can suppress others by relying on strength, you must know that sometimes, it is necessary to suppress something.
