Qin Zhengxue's face turned pale, and he was a little panicked.

This matter has not been investigated.

Once verified, then ...... The people of the county plundered the goods of the merchants, and then used the so-called goods to invite the hearts of the local gentry, and then it was necessary to have the whole day.

Not to mention, his father died too embarrassed.

Although the son does not say anything about the father, to be honest, if the world knows how his father died, I am afraid that he will really not be able to be a man.

If you really want to investigate, let Jin Yiwei directly investigate the affairs of the Qin family, and what is exposed, why not stop here?

As for the Criminal Department and Dali Temple...... If you start investigating over there......

Qin Zhengxue was in the pain of losing his father, so he could only knock out his front teeth and swallow it in his stomach.

But Zhang Anshi didn't give up: "Didn't you say that death was strange? It's weird, why don't you check it? If you can't trust Jinyiwei, don't you even trust the Criminal Department and Dali Temple? ”

After a pause, Zhang Anshi continued: "Qin Sheren, your father is dead, I ...... Naturally, I know that you are very sad, and now your mind is so confused that you can't make a rational judgment. ”

"Princess, I see, let's take the place of Qin Sheren to get the idea, let's play together to ask His Royal Highness the Prince, please Dali Temple and the Criminal Department send someone to investigate to the end, so as not to cause criticism from the people of the world."

In fact, at this time, everyone was lost.

You want to say that Zhang Anshi is the murderer, but Zhang Anshi seems to care about the truth of this matter, and is even willing to ask Dali Temple and the Criminal Department to lead this eucalyptus.

If you say that he is not a murderer, how can he not die, but at this time?

As for Qin Zhengxue's reaction, it was the most surprising.

After all, he is a bitter master, and when his father is dead, and when he is full of grief, he wants to check it out as anyone, just in case.

But he doesn't seem to agree with that.

After listening to Zhang Anshi's words, Qin Zhengxue immediately shook his head and said, "No, my father is dying, and the cause of death is very clear. Ay...... After all, my father didn't have this life......"

With that, his eyes turned red and his voice began to whimper.

At this time, he was no longer willing to entangle, everything was a foregone conclusion, and it was useless to say anything now.

At that moment, he fell to the ground and said to the crown prince Zhu Gaochi: "His Royal Highness the prince, the minister's father is mourning, and the minister is ...... Minister......"

Qin Zhengxue burned all his thoughts, the dynasty ruled the world with filial piety, and the minister died of his father, and he should keep the system for three years, which is the so-called Ding Wei system.

In other words, at this time, he must pack up his things and return to his hometown, and after three years, he can return to the capital as an official.

This is ...... for Qin Zhengxue Almost an unacceptable result.

But if you want to accept this result, you have to accept it if you want to accept it, because this is the law of etiquette and the law of the country.

No one can go against these unless...... The emperor made a special decree to seize affection.

The so-called seizure of affection generally refers to the fact that a major event has occurred in the country, and it must be dealt with by a certain minister, and the matter has reached the point where it cannot be delayed, so under the persuasion of hundreds of officials and the will of the emperor, it is finally left on the grounds that loyalty and filial piety cannot be both.

However, he is Qin Zhengxue, and he is not qualified to win love at all.

So far, Daming has no record of seizing love.

Qin Zhengxue was full of thoughts, and he knew that this was ...... If you come back in three years, the pattern of the DPRK and China will definitely change, and by that time......

He choked up, and he didn't know if it was because of his dead father, or because of ...... Lost a good future.

He continued to say with difficulty: "The minister should say goodbye to His Highness, return to his hometown, and ask His Highness for permission." ”

After saying that, he kowtowed to the ground and couldn't help but burst into tears.

Zhu Gaochi only reacted at this time, his mouth opened wide, a little unclosing, a little happy, but the muscles on his cheeks just went up, and they immediately pulled it down.

So he flattened his mouth, tried hard to make himself sad, and said in a tone that restrained his grief: "Qing is in the East Palace, the palace has a lot to rely on, and there is no Qing in the East Palace, if something happens, who should the palace discuss with?" ”

As he spoke, he wiped his eyes and said sadly, "It's just...... Filial piety is fundamental, so let's go. ”

Qin Zhengxue said with tears in his eyes: "Thank you, Your Highness." ”

He stood up with a dejected face, still holding the mourning letter in his hand, and shook it step by step, almost a little weak several times, and he was unsteady on his feet, and almost fell to the ground.

Finally, he saluted again and walked away without looking back.

Suddenly, the hall fell into a strange atmosphere.

Zhang Anshi said at this time: "Your Highness, the minister thinks ...... I still have to look into this matter......"

Liu Beep and the others were silent one by one.

Zhang Anshi, this guy, said everything everyone wanted to say.

What makes people speechless is that in this matter, it can also seem that Qin Zhengxue's father was assassinated, and someone must have done something to point the finger at someone.

But Zhang Anshi didn't let go of it, as if someone else in the world had harmed someone's father.

Zhu Gaochi said: "I got the heart of the Qin Sheren." ”

Meaning: don't look it up.

Zhang Anshi had no choice but to say stupidly: "Yes." ”

Zhu Gaochi calmed down, showed a little sadness, and sighed: "This palace is the most trustworthy Qin Sheren, Qin Sheren is in Zhan Shifu, and it has always been the heart and humerus of this palace. It's really reluctant now. ”

"yes, yes......" everyone nodded yes.

Zhang Anshi also nodded, that is, he agreed, and said mechanically: "Yes, yes, yes." ”

Zhu Gaochi said again: "It's just ...... Now that the position of a bachelor is still vacant, you see, who is better? ”

Suddenly there was silence in the hall again.

On the one hand, this time, everyone was unprepared, and they never expected that they would need to push another person out.

At this time, there is no time for everyone to blend behind their backs.

On the other hand, today's events are too shocking, and the good ones make people lose their fathers, which makes many people's hearts a little drumming.

Just when everyone was in shock, Zhang Anshi smiled and said, "Your Highness, why not Yang Pu?" ”

"Yang Pu?" Zhu Gao said vigorously, his eyes looking at everyone.

Liu Beep and others have not responded.

Zhang Anshi said: "Didn't all the princes say it? Yang Pu is also a talented person, with both ability and political integrity, it is actually the second choice, that is, Qin Zhengxue is also clear and clear, Yang Pu's talent is ten times better than him, and it is the best choice. Of course, we all know that this must be the humble words of Qin Sheren, but we can also take a peek at the leopard, this Yang Pu is indeed a person with real talent and learning. ”

Zhu Gaochi looked at Liu Bi: "What do you think of Liu Qing's family?" ”

"This ......" Liu Beep was really stumped.

If not, where can you find a second candidate?

As for saying that Yang Pu is not qualified, this is not possible, when the public recommended Qin Zhengxue, everyone also said that Yang Pu did have talent, although this is just a discourse, for example, Yang Pu is talented, but ...... Something like that.

Now, if you directly retort, it is obviously inappropriate.

It was impossible for Zhu Gaochi to let go of this opportunity, so he said: "Zhuqing, this is the top priority, Zhuqing has been urging the palace to launch a bachelor's candidate as soon as possible these days, why is it that it is grinding again?" ”

Liu Bi had no choice but to bite the bullet and smile bitterly: "Yang washes the horse...... Or give it a try. ”

After getting his words, Zhu Gaochi was polite and said, "Does anyone think it's inappropriate?" ”

Seeing that everyone was quiet, Zhu Gaochi stood up and said, "Then it's decided, Yang Pu......"

Yang Pu: "......"

Yang Pu was dazed at this time, and things turned so fast that he couldn't react.

He has always felt that there must be other reasons for the death of Qin Zhengxue's father, but what the reason is, I am afraid that only God knows.

But Yang Pu knew that after today, he was afraid that he would be completely tied up with Zhang Anshi, no matter how he explained, no one believed in his innocence.

Even...... The death of Father Yang may also have someone splashing dirty water on him.

At this point, if he chooses to resign, he will not be able to clear his suspicions.

And the only way is to accept, get this position, do something for the benefit of the country and the people, and truly change the world's perception of themselves.

In just an instant, his mind turned back and forth, but he also made a decision, and immediately bowed down and said, "The minister is here." ”

Zhu Gaochi said: "All the secretaries have publicly recommended you as a bachelor, this is a public opinion, and you can't shirk it, take office tomorrow and assist the palace." ”

What else could Yang Pu say, he said, "Your Highness Xie." ”

He looked up and glanced at Zhang Anshi.

Zhang Anshi was smiling.

A public push dispersed.

Everyone hasn't recovered yet.

Zhang Anshi had already pulled Yang Pu: "Congratulations, congratulations......"

Yang Pu smiled bitterly and returned a salute.

Zhang Anshi said: "From now on, you and I are only afraid that we will be in the same boat." ”

This is clearly a matter of co-optation and bribery.

Yang Pu also knew that he was already on this boat and couldn't get off, but he still considered it and said: "But if it is beneficial to the country and the people, the lower officials will do their best to cooperate with Wei Guogong." ”

Zhang Anshi smiled, he knew that Yang Pu was still wary and vigilant against him, so he changed his head and said, "What do you think of the charter?" ”

Yang Pu said calmly: "Some places are not perfect, and there are some places that are a little whimsical in the eyes of the lower officials, but overall, they are novel. ”

Zhang Anshi said: "Although the Taiping Mansion is in Nanzhili, most of the people are poor, I want to use this charter as a blueprint to implement the new policy, which is also the meaning of the prince, what does Master Yang think?" ”

"It's better to be cautious, and take one step to see three steps." Yang Pu paused and said: "In fact, in all dynasties, smart people don't know how many, and there are even more people who implement new policies. But what is the actual effect? It can be seen that the things in the world are not something that can be done with a pat on the head and come up with a novel idea, in the final analysis, it depends on people. ”

"By people?" Zhang Anshi looked at Yang Pu in surprise, and then waited for Yang Pu's next words.

Yang Pu nodded and said: "Yes, those who have always promoted the new policy should not be enemies of the old party, and most of the talents in the world are surrounded by the old party." Therefore, it is necessary to establish a new policy...... You can't rely on the support of the palace, and you can't rely on a sage, let's just say Wang Anshi, Wang Anshi is such a smart person, his new policy, compared to your grandfather's charter, I don't know how many times more thorough, but did the Song Dynasty solve the disadvantages of redundant officials and redundant personnel, and did the burden of the people be reduced? ”

Zhang Anshi said: "Then what is the reason for this?" ”

Yang Pu said: "Wang Anshi has the support of Song Shenzong, it can be said that he has been in the limelight for a while, this prince can be said to have taken advantage of the time and place, and the only one who loses is ...... It's people. The new policy he implemented would inevitably arouse the opposition of the Manchu Dynasty, but since he was opposed, how could things be carried out? The method adopted by Wang Xianggong is no different from that of the vast majority of New Dealers in the past, and what they chose is to buy people's hearts! ”

And so...... Those who tend to be attached to the flames have defected to Wang Xianggong, and in order to cling to them, everyone claims to be a new party, but what is the result? No matter how well the constitution is formulated, no matter how complete the preparation of the New Deal is, and how much the emperor supports it, but when your disciples are all a group of guys who just want to take advantage of the opportunity of the New Deal to become popular, how can things be done? ”

"The end result...... It's just a laughing stock. ”

After a pause, Yang Pu continued: "So the lower officials think that Wei Guogong is too anxious, once he is in a hurry to get a new deal, it will inevitably lead to disputes. “

After hearing this, Zhang Anshi subconsciously said: "Then what should I do?" ”

Yang Pu also had an answer in his heart, so he immediately said: "First, don't use the banner of the New Deal, don't attract people's attention, just ...... in the name of purging the White Lotus Sect."

"White Lotus Sect ......" Zhang Anshi was a little dazed.

He didn't expect that the White Lotus Sect could also become a tool man.

Yang Pu smiled and said: "The influence of the White Lotus Sect in Taiping Mansion is too deep, in order to achieve long-term peace and stability, and completely crack down on the remnants of the White Lotus Sect, can the officials of these counties take this opportunity...... A change? Secondly, many of the initiatives in the grandfather's charter can also be justified by this. ”

"For example, the method of deposing the people who need to go out is also very simple, just say that the White Lotus Sect has fallacies to confuse the people and harm the township, and you can encourage the local people to go to the county seat or the capital city and listen to the missionary ......."

"There is also a tax policy, which can also be changed, let's just say that the White Lotus Sect has ill intentions......"

Yang Pu began to speak one by one, Zhang Anshi was surprised when he heard it, and finally straddled Yang Pu's hand and said, "Yang Gong, let's find a place to sit down and speak slowly." ”

So he found a small hall in the East Palace, Zhang Anshi asked the eunuch to pour tea, and he couldn't help asking: "In the name of eliminating thieves, can you hide people's eyes and ears?" ”

Yang Pu smiled and said: "Grandpa, there is a saying that you can only enter the inch if you have an inch." If you directly say that it is the New Deal, many of the strategies in it are directed at the officials and gentry, will they give up? But if it is a thief, it is different. ”

On the one hand, it is to tell them that this is only a temporary measure to get rid of the thieves, and at least to teach them to feel at ease, even if they don't like it, they will not be very opposed. Second, with the name of eliminating thieves, it is the great righteousness, if anyone has a lot of complaints about this, they dare not oppose it too much, if not, wouldn't it become a smug for the White Lotus Sect, and a remnant of the White Lotus Sect? ”

After a pause, Yang Pu continued: "Third, in fact, there are some things, you know that I know that everyone in the world knows, but knowing is one thing, but the grandfather can't shout out, everyone knows, at least the surface calm can be maintained, once shouted out, it will become the difference between the enemy and me." ”

Zhang Anshi took a sip of tea and said, "That's it, it makes sense, okay, just do it like this, but ...... You can't use that excuse all the time. ”

Yang Pu said: "This is called an inch, and after an inch, if this new policy is really done well in the Taiping Mansion, and the people are really living and working in peace and contentment, then ...... At this time, under the grandfather, a group of officials who are proficient in the new policy must have been cultivated, and at the same time, ...... It has also gained a lot of people's hearts, and there will certainly be some people in the DPRK and China who are really worried about the country and the people, and when they see the results, they will definitely turn to support, and when that time comes...... It's a lot easier. ”

"Grandpa...... I must always feel that the people who read the world are all ancient, calculating, pedantic, or negative. In fact, the grandfather thinks like this, this is because the grandfather is not a scholar, and the scholars in this world cannot be generalized, but the good and the bad are mixed. ”

"If the new policy can really be effective, there may be some scholars, but more supportive, the reason why they oppose is because in all dynasties, the implementation of the new policy, not only did not benefit the country and the people, but led to a heavier burden on the people, and the discipline was more corrupt, so they are cautious and skeptical of any new policy, besides, the grandfather is a relative after all......"

Zhang Anshi immediately raised his eyebrows and said, "What's wrong with my relatives?" Relatives are not people? ”

Yang Pu couldn't help but show a hint of a smile and said, "Xia Guan didn't mean that. ”

Zhang Anshi became serious, thought for a moment, and then said, "What you said is not unreasonable. Your strategy is quite a legacy of Emperor Taizu Gao. ”

Hearing this, Yang Pu glanced at Zhang Anshi meaningfully: "Don't you dare." ”

Zhang Anshi said: "When Emperor Taizu Gao conquered the world, the strategy he used was: build a high wall, accumulate grain, and slowly become the king, isn't that what it means? ”

Yang Pu shook his head busily: "Hey, Zhang Gong said carefully, can you say this?" ”

Zhang Anshi had no scruples, and said very directly: "Even in front of His Majesty, I will say this, isn't this the most commonly used quotation for you scholars?" Many things are not taboo, but you scholars have a lot of flowers, but they always seem to be blending something. ”

Yang Pu: "......"

"I don't know Yang Gong, what else do you have in mind? It just taught me at the same time, I am a careless person, although there are many brothers around me, but there are not many brains. ”

Yang Pu said: "The charter, the lower officials will change it again, and in a few days, it will be sent to the grandfather's house." ”

Zhang Anshi smiled happily: "Then there is labor." ”

The two of them tacitly became their own people.

Yang Pu was a little skeptical about life, he didn't know whether he was dragged into the water by Zhang Anshi, or if he dragged Zhang Anshi into the water.

Maybe...... It's about making each other happen.

…………

A recital was soon sent to the palace.

At this time, Zhu Di was having lunch.

Empress Xu was not in the palace, so Zhu Di simply ate some meals in the literary building and dealt with a few bites.

Therefore, only a pot of wine, a few dishes of side dishes, the wine is the imperial brew of the palace, a few sips down, it is inevitable that the whole body is hot.

At this moment, Yishiha crept in.

Zhu Di glanced up at Yishiha, poured himself a drink, and said, "East Palace...... Is there a result? ”

Yishaha walked to Zhu Di's side before saying, "Yes." ”

Zhu Di took a sip of wine, and then asked again: "Who is the public?" “

"Qin Zhengxue ......"

Zhu Di frowned, looked unhappy, put the wine glass on the table casually, and muttered: "Into his mother, I only taught them not to scold, but I didn't let them obey the minister's wishes everywhere, is this world surnamed Zhu, or is it in the bag of these bird ministers?" ”

He cursed angrily and filled his glass with wine.

Yizha said: "But ......"

Zhu Di: "......"

Hearing only two words, Zhu Di, who had just raised his glass again and sent wine to his mouth, looked at Yi Lost.

Yisha said cautiously: "But...... But there was some accident, the father of the Qin Sheren...... After passing away, Qin Sheren immediately resigned from his official position, returned to his hometown to guard the system, and finally ...... Everyone recommended Yang Pu. ”

"Poof......

Zhu Di took a sip of wine and squirted it out directly.

"Why didn't you say it sooner?"

Yisha smiled and said, "Isn't the slave afraid that she can't tell clearly?" ”

Zhu Di said: "Why is his father so good that he doesn't die, but he dies at this time?" ”

"The slave and maid don't know, and everyone doubts it...... Ahem......"

Zhu Di raised his eyes and said, "What do you mean...... What did the prince and Zhang Anshi do? ”

Yisha said: "But it's not like it, Wei Guogong has repeatedly hoped that it can be thoroughly investigated, and he also hopes that the Criminal Department and Dali Temple will investigate...... The cause of death must be thoroughly investigated...... On the contrary, the Qin She people said that this is the end of life......"

Zhu Di couldn't help but be disappointed: "I thought that my son was a little promising, and he was really a person who could do great things, but it turned out to be just luck." ”

Zhu Di couldn't help sighing, saying that it was strange that as a father, Zhu Di hoped that King Han and Zhao Wang'an would share a little, but he hoped that his eldest son would be more ruthless.

Yisha said: "But...... Slaves...... I think there is something strange in this, because the person who reported the mourning ...... The slave maid asked people to check, this person ...... It's a little different, and it's very vague about Qin's father's death, it's like... This Qin's father died horizontally. ”

"Will it be ......" Yishu said: "There is a problem with this Qin's father's death, but it is not easy to say it clearly......"

Zhu Di suddenly understood something: "I know, if this is really the case, then it is quite a bit of a means." ”

Yisha smiled bitterly: "This is just the slave's speculation. ”

"Don't guess." Zhu Di waved his hand and said: "Where in the world is there such a coincidence!" ”

He paused, and at this time he had no intention of eating and drinking, and said, "Go and summon Master Yao and Jin Qing's family, be quick, I have something important to discuss with them." ”

Yisha saw that Zhu Di was a little anxious, so he hurriedly said: "The slave will go here." ”

As soon as he left, a eunuch hurriedly came: "Your Majesty, Duke Yao and Duke Jin ask to meet." ”

Zhu Di raised his eyebrows, this is a coincidence.

After a while, Yao Guangxiao and Jin Zhong entered the hall together, and the two saluted: "Your Majesty ......"

Zhu Di's eyes fell on Yao Guangxiao's body first, and said, "Every time I want to see Master Yao, Master Yao always loses no time in coming. ”

"Fate is wonderful!" Yao Guangxiao smiled.

Zhu Di said: "Okay, don't talk about this nonsense, have you checked the matter?" ”

Zhu Di looked at Yao Guangxiao seriously, his expression was very solemn.
