Chapter 111: Internal Disputes and External Systems (6)
"Don't use the Goshidai?" Guo Xiangren frowned, puzzled, "Although we can also write a letter of impeachment, if we listen to the heavens, we will inevitably fall into the handle of overstepping our duties; If you follow the rules and let Yu Shitai transfer it, you will be pressed down by Lu Tingci and cause a lot of trouble. But if you secretly impeach Ge Mingwei, you can not only take us out, but also have to go straight to the door with a single knife, and hit the leaf thief unprepared, which is justifiable, why not? I really don't understand the mystery of what you said. ”
Comrade Chen was not in a hurry to refute, but just nodded and said: "It is true that you said so, the impeachment of the imperial history has many advantages. However, now is by no means the time for a big move. ”
He continued to explain: "The leaf thief has not yet started a new deal, and His Majesty has recently been interested in King Yi, so he naturally wants to use him to fight the prince's party. And the impeachment of the imperial history, we will definitely play the signature, once signed, then the public Qingliu will feel powerful and can be feared, will be played one after another, then how can the situation be controlled by you and me? If we make a big fuss, it will break the emperor's face, and the emperor will be angry and reproach the sentence 'gather in groups and coerce the Son of Heaven', how can we stand it? ”
"That's right...... Lord Chen's words made the younger generation enlightened! The Hunan people couldn't help but praise loudly.
Comrade Chen modestly said "how dare you" twice, and then continued: "But when things have developed to this point, we can't do nothing, so it's better to follow my method: on the one hand, I submitted a secret letter to the imperial historian Lu Tingci, asking him why he didn't condone the matter of the Ye Party; On the one hand, you will write to the prime minister, please convene a meeting in the capital province and return the two criminals to Dali Temple for trial. Your Majesty will be happy when he sees that I am competing with the ministers in the foreign court and not disturbing the interference, and the prince will be able to deal with it. ”
The Hunan people listened to it, but they didn't fully understand it, but they thought in their hearts: 'Chen Gong's wisdom is peerless, invincible, what doubts do I have!'" So he stopped asking questions and went honestly.
"Master Lu, Chen Shangshu sent someone to send a letter, saying that it was a private matter."
Lu Tingci was confronting Ge Ming, when he suddenly heard someone outside the door reporting it, and glanced at it: "Private matter? I don't have a relationship with Chen Gongxuan...... Leave it on the table. ”
The servant nodded, carefully placed the book on the table, and hurriedly closed the door and exited, leaving only the window to let in the light.
"Did I hear me right?" Ge Mingwei slowly raised his head and asked.
"That's right," Lu Tingci got up to get the letter and smiled, "It's Lord Chen over there." I don't know what he is thinking today, inexplicable. ”
Ge Ming said with a straight face: "Enyan's words are wrong. Chen Gong is a model of Confucianism in the world, and we follow him, but we are just like-minded, so how can there be a difference between 'you' and 'we'? These are the boundaries of partisanship. ”
"As you mean, I'm a friend." Lu Tingci said.
"The leaf thief used his personal favor to win over the minister, disregarding the holy will, isn't it a friend or something?" Ge Ming was filled with righteous indignation, "Because of this, I don't understand why Enyan is obviously committed to serving the country, but why is he willing to be a friend under the fence of the Ye Party?" Do you want to be in the company of a scoundrel like Cui Yi more than the virtuous Chen Gong? Could it be that a madman like Ye Yongjia can lead the country to prosperity? ”
Lu Tingci was questioned by him like this, but he didn't have the slightest anger, he just let out a long breath and replied calmly: "Judging from my judgment of national politics, following the old system is not a good medicine. I grew up in a family of mendi, and I know that the atmosphere is incorrigible, even if it is revitalized, it will still be exploited in the future, knocking on the bone and sucking the marrow. Today, there are more than one million displaced people in the world, and the people have long been miserable, if the system is not abolished, the old law will be changed, and small favors will be given in vain, in order to survive and be in peace, I really don't know how to last long. ”
"So what?"
Lu Tingci spread his hands again: "So I'm just pursuing what I want." Of course, this is just my own opinion, and perhaps I have been blinded by prejudices and cannot see the disadvantages of the New Deal. After all, Lord Chen, and you, just disagree with Lu's political views, I don't want to be like Cui Yi, who regards the 'Chen Party' as an enemy one by one, and opposes it indiscriminately. ”
"Eun Yeon is really a sober person!" Ge Mingwei picked up the wine glass and said, "Ge really didn't make the wrong friend!" Here, another toast! The two of them burst into laughter, bumped into each other, and drank a full glass.
Only then did Lu Tingci turn around and open the letter, and when he saw the delicate words on it, he was temporarily discolored:
'Ye Yongjia has become more and more prominent recently, and Yu Shi is not clear? Let's take a look at the people who reuse it, Cui Yi is just a rural grass person, he has not made a big deal about the size, and because he is an in-law, he has suddenly risen to the main business; Dong Sheng is just a late scholar, because he is attached to the party, that is, he is a leading leader. The facts are like a mountain, and the adults blindly connived, and there has been no impeachment for several years, can this be repaid to His Majesty? I hope that the lord will take the responsibility of the Taiwan admonition, and quickly expose the disobedience, so as not to make the ministers sad. The secretary of the ministry Shangshu Chen bowed to his comrades. ’
Seeing that he was sluggish, Ge Ming hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?" ”
Lu Tingci couldn't reveal his heart and discernment, so he only took the letter and asked him, "Have you seen this letter?" ”
Ge Ming looked at it for a while, and was even more surprised than him: "Lord Chen, is this preparing to make trouble?" I thought he was going to come to the Imperial Observatory first......"
"Don't say anything," Lu Tingci pressed the letter on the table and said anxiously, "Listen, if this matter is reported to the emperor and causes blood, it will not be good for you and me." It's better to tear up this letter, Master Ge, you must not publicize it! ”
Ge Mingwei said: "This is a matter of the life of the virtuous brother, how can I betray my friends and seek glory!" Give it to me, I'll tear it up for you, and in case of the East Window incident, I'll take the blame. ”
Before Lu Tingci could react, he pulled the letter, and with all his strength, tore it to pieces in his hand, and almost couldn't read a word. Lu Tingci was grateful and cried, and thanked him for a few deep bows before saying goodbye.
He didn't dare to stop on the road for a while, so he rushed all the way to the yamen of the military department and explained the matter to Ye Yongjia. Although it seemed to him that it was urgent, Ye Yongjia only felt very strange, and asked many questions unhurriedly, which made the former a little annoyed: "Comrade Chen has the intention of fighting back, and he is about to hinder the new policy in the near future. ”
Ye Yongjia groaned: "Because this thing is too unreasonable...... He didn't know that his henchmen had written a letter of impeachment and were unprepared to attack me, but he wanted to write a letter to us and inform us of the news...... What's the trick in this? ”
"That's right," the scheming Cai Xianqing was also stunned, "Comrade Chen has always been shrewd, and he will never make such a mistake." Should you ...... it?" he was stunned by this, and his wrinkles deepened even deeper.
