"Zu Ting actually came to participate in the examination, wasn't his eyes abolished by the first emperor?" Cushman couldn't laugh or cry.

According to common sense, the eyes are gone, and Lu Lingxuan, the only one who can support him, is also dead, and Zu Ting is probably going to disappear into the long river of history.

Cushman & Wakefield didn't do anything after investigating and learning about Zu Ting's condition, and acquiesced to letting him fend for himself. But he didn't expect Zu Ting not only to come back, but also to appear again in such a way.

Gao Wei didn't have anything, but this really made Zhao Yanshen, who had praised his "amazing talent" before, disgusted.

Putting aside the opposition and contradiction between Zhao Yanshen and Zu Ting, Zhao Yanshen is extremely disdainful of Zu Ting's moral behavior, and he feels uncomfortable staying under the same roof with him!

Not only does Zhao Yanshen have such an opinion of Zu Ting, but Gao Wei's father-in-law Hu Luguang also looks at him very unhappy, and there are a lot of cabinet bosses who have a bad impression of him!

According to their intentions, they should directly depose this despicable villain, save him and come back to disgust him. However, although he was the first cabinet minister and had great power and status, he did not dare to directly depose Zu Ting, which would be arrogance.

Your Majesty should be informed of this matter, and it will be up to Your Majesty to decide.

He didn't believe it, with His Majesty's wisdom, he would use such a villain with poor character!?

Gao Wei smiled bitterly and thought about it, and finally said, "You brought Zu Ting's scroll to me, and I also want to see what kind of things he has written to make you worry about this?"

Call all of them along. Let's discuss together whether we should admit this Zu Ting. ”

Zhao Yanshen slowly retreated, and soon came up with a crumpled roll, followed by a group of cabinet ministers.

Among them are examiners who are reading papers outside. Their faces were a little unpleasant at the moment, and they had been like this since they found out who the guy they gave their high rating was.

Although most of them have never seen Zu Ting, they have also heard of this guy who is "famous in Yecheng".

For Zu Ting's various styles, he is even more "astonishing" and "breathtaking".

I didn't expect them to admit such a guy, no wonder the cabinet bigwigs looked at them with a little wrong expression.

Feng Zicong's ice face almost scared them down, you said Zu Ting, this guy, isn't it good to nest at home if he doesn't have a good character? If you have to come out and show your face, the key is that this article is really well written! It's hard to give a bad review against your will!

Cushman & Wakefield took the volume, spread it out and looked at it carefully, and found that this article was really not ordinarily good, and it was clearly defined and categorized, and put forward many novel but stable measures, which well grasped the central idea of "seeking stability first and winning in stability" in Cushman & Wakefield.

Therefore, even if he knew that it was Zu Ting, who wrote this article, who had a poor character, Gao Wei couldn't help but praise his talent. Zu Ting's talent is really not covered!

After reading it, Gao Wei couldn't help but praise: "It's really a good article, so talented...... That's a ......."

Gao Wei didn't know what to say, so he could only sigh: "It's a pity ......"

Zhao Yanshen and the ministers glanced at each other, and it seemed that His Majesty was still moved by Zu Ting's article.

They absolutely want to stop this from happening!

So after everyone glanced at each other, a heavy cabinet minister came out and said: "Your Majesty, these articles are indeed extraordinary, but Zu Tingqi is a person with poor character, although he is talented, he has always been arrogant and debauched!" At the beginning, he disobeyed the first emperor and was whipped 200 and thrown into prison, and the minister thought that he should be deposed! ”

"The minister seconded the proposal! Zheng Shangshu's words are reasonable, this ancestor often violates the law and discipline, embezzles and accepts bribes, and the party fights against differences! It would not be an exaggeration to think that he would be beheaded directly! How can such a traitor be hired? I beg your majesty to exile him! ”

This is Pingjian, Pingjian does not have any contradiction with Zu Ting, but he has a contradiction with Heshikai!

He Shikai once forcibly asked for his concubine, and without Zu Ting behind his back to give him ideas, can He Shikai get into such a high position?

So Ping Jian's opinion on Zu Ting is big. used to be a person who opened up with the world, so even if he turned against him later, he was the enemy of Pingjian!

It's not a good thing to mess with the world!

After Zheng Shangshu of the household department made a statement and Pingjian spoke, other members of the cabinet also expressed their positions, and they all proposed to depose Zu Ting!

Gao Wei couldn't help frowning slightly when he saw this, and it was not good news for him that the cabinet was too united.

Even if Zhao Yanshen is loyal, the cabinet is too grouped to limit the expansion of Cushman & Wakefield's influence.

His eyes inadvertently swept over Zhao Yanshen, and he sighed in his heart,

[Zhao Yanshen is a veteran of the Five Dynasties, and his prestige is too great. At the beginning, I raised Zhao Yanshen's influence in order to suppress the lords, but now Zhao Yanshen's prestige should not be too high......]

Gao Wei quietly retracted his gaze and said expressionlessly: "At the beginning, I issued an edict to take the examination, so that I could introduce talented people from all over the world, and even the scholars from the pseudo-Zhou and Nan Chen could tolerate it, so why should I have to deal with the old people who were degraded by the previous emperor?

Besides, my edict clearly states that no matter the background, no matter the prestige, only the talent, if I dethrone Zu Ting like this because of his past mistakes, what will the people of the world say? ”

"Your Majesty, don't worry, Zu Tingqi is notorious! A three-year-old child in Yecheng knows all the ugly things he has done, if His Majesty dethrones him, no one will say that His Majesty and the court are not. On the contrary, if the imperial court really gave him a quota, it would be a loss of face for the imperial court......"

Zheng Shangshu of the household department began to admonish again, and his words were gentle, but he cracked a reason that Gao Wei found.

If you block out the conversation, there will undoubtedly be fewer options to choose from.

He was forcing Gao Wei to express his position, and he also resolutely expressed his opposition to Zu Ting's fame. Gao Wei's eyes flashed with a hint of sharpness, and he said lightly:

"Since you are resolutely opposed to him gaining fame, then I will not give it to you......"

Before they could show their joy, Cushman and Wei commanded the Brocade Armor Warriors:

"Go to Tongque Garden, find Zu Ting, take him into the palace, I want to see him! If you don't have anything else to do, then disperse! ”

Everyone looked at each other in amazement at the back of the emperor leaving.

Yuan Wenyao sighed, looked at Zheng Shangshu helplessly, and said, "You shouldn't force Your Majesty so much......"

His Majesty seems to have been provoked to fight against the cabinet.

That Zheng Shangshu also looked bitter, and said: "The old man also doesn't want to let a traitor return to the court and the opposition again......"

Zhao Yan stroked his beard deeply and said, "It seems that our cabinet is going to have another person......

"What?" The ministers were all shocked and hurriedly asked why. Zhao Yanshen didn't want to say more, waved his hand and left alone.

Zu Ting didn't sleep all night last night, and he was busy with exams during the day, so he still had a lot of mental loss, so he went to bed early.

When I slept soundly, I vaguely heard a noise outside, and the sound of conversation came. As soon as Zu Ting opened his eyes, he saw several shadows standing in front of him.

The brocade-clothed armor soldier asked hardly: "Are you Zu Tingzu Xiaozheng?" ”

Zu Ting was shocked in his heart, but he couldn't see who the person in front of him was, so he replied cautiously: "...... That's right, it's the old man. ”

The brocade armor priest said: "Your Majesty has a will, Xuanzu will enter the palace to meet you!" ”

What?!

Zu Ting's mouth opened wide in astonishment.
