"Because they can still do things for Your Majesty, it's as simple as that!"

"If they do not act well at that time and provoke the wrath of Your Majesty, then it will be time to reckoning."

"At that point, it's time for us to go out!"

Zhao Zhenji's words were like a heavy hammer, completely shattering the concept he had always cultivated.

"But this ......"

Hai Rui hesitated, trying to argue, but he found that his reasons were so weak and pale, and then he fell into deep thought.

"Yes, as an emperor, you should plan for the people of the world!"

"But in such a big place, with so many people, how can the emperor alone manage it?"

"Therefore, the emperor needs someone to rule over the people, and to carry out and enforce the policies he promulgates!"

"For the emperor, as long as the courtiers can do things and are loyal to themselves, this is enough! As for the rest, it's just an addition. ”

"Therefore, as long as it does not affect the normal implementation of the policy and the daily operation of the imperial court, the emperor usually turns a blind eye to this."

"Only when the struggle between the two sides affects the daily operation of the imperial court, or the livelihood of the people, will the emperor stand up and act as a referee to regulate the relationship between the two sides."

Hai Rui stood in place, pondering for a long time, as if he had figured out something, and the whole person suddenly became radiant, and his eyes flashed with a different kind of light.

Zhao Zhenji's words gave Hai Rui a lot of inspiration, allowing him to put himself in a higher perspective and look at the problem.

"Perhaps, Your Majesty deliberately let the two sides fight! Because only in this way will His Majesty be able to learn from different sources, so as to avoid being deceived himself. ”

"If the struggle between the two sides is limited to a controllable range, not only can we broaden the channels of information, but we can also take advantage of the situation and use the hands of these officials to implement our own policies!"

"After all, if you don't carry out what the emperor orders, the emperor will let your opponent carry it out!"

"And both sides are very jealous of the other party's gain more favor from the emperor, thus breaking the balance of power!"

"Therefore, in order not to be left behind by the opponent, it is necessary to spare no effort to implement Your Majesty's policies and at the same time curry favor with Your Majesty."

"If it goes on for so long, it can barely be regarded as a virtuous circle! Provided, of course, that everything is under control. ”

The more Hai Rui thought about it, the more he felt that it was possible, and then he saw him look at Zhao Zhenji gratefully and spoke.

"Thank you, Lord Qincha, for your words, which have benefited the lower officials a lot!"

"The lower official has been taught!"

After Hai Rui finished speaking, he immediately bowed to the ground.

At this moment, Zhao Zhenji was completely confused about Hai Rui's reaction.

In his opinion, he just gave Hai Rui a few hints, but Hai Rui's reaction was completely unexpected, and he seemed to have learned something from it.

"It's okay, you can understand something from it, and the official won't waste his thoughts."

Zhao Zhenji waved his hand, and then said to Hai Rui.

"Lord Qincha is really unfathomable, and he is worthy of being a person who has been immersed in officialdom for many years! In a few casual sentences, there is such a profound truth. ”

"Hai Rui, Hai Rui, you have to listen, see and think more!"

"Only in this way can we ensure that we will be able to carry out our ambitions smoothly in the future."

When Hai Rui thought of this, he looked at Zhao Zhenji's eyes and was even more respectful!

At this moment, he has regarded Zhao Zhenji as his mentor.

"Alright, in that case, then you go down and prepare! Handover all the work that should be handed over well, and don't go wrong. ”

Zhao Zhenji saw that the conversation was almost over, and immediately said so.

"Yes, Lord Qincha, the lower official will retire!"

After Hai Rui finished speaking, after saluting Zhao Zhenji respectfully, he left the governor's palace.

As soon as Hai Rui walked out of the Governor's Palace, he saw a sedan chair parked not far from the Governor's Palace, and a sedan chair driver was waiting anxiously next to him.

At this moment, it is getting late, and this sedan chair is parked there alone, which is quite eye-catching.

Just when Hai Rui was puzzled, the sedan chair man saw him come out, and hurriedly came up and said respectfully.

"My lord, my master asked me to wait for you here!"

"Who is your master?"

Even though Hai Rui already had some guesses in his heart, he still asked.

"If you go back to your lordship, it's the political envoy of Bu, send the little one to wait for you here!"

After listening to the words of the sedan chair driver, Hai Rui also put his mind at ease and immediately got into the sedan chair.

……

Soon, the sedan chair stopped at the door of the previous restaurant, and the sedan chair man lifted the sedan curtain and said respectfully.

"Your Excellency, it's here."

"Hmm."

Hai Rui nodded, then walked out of the sedan chair and walked straight to the restaurant.

Since he had already been here once, Hai Rui was relatively familiar with this place.

Therefore, he soon came to the box where Zheng Michang was, pushed open the door, and entered it.

"You're finally here, the official has been waiting for you here for a long time, come, sit!"

"Little Er, serve!"

Zheng Michang was very enthusiastic about Hai Rui's arrival and kept greeting him.

Hai Rui did not shirk, calmly accepted Zheng Michang's enthusiasm, and sat down on the seat next to him.

In his opinion, after Zheng Michang learned the news that he was about to serve in the Inspectorate, he made up his mind to settle his old suspicions with himself.

At that time, his identity as an official of the Inspectorate will also become a major help to him.

Hai Rui only thought about it for a moment in this direction, and then figured out where the joints were.

Soon, the steaming dishes were served by the guy and filled the table.

After the dishes were served, Zheng Michang poured himself and Hai Rui a glass of wine each, and then a slight apology appeared on his face.

I saw him get up from his seat, pick up his wine glass, and say this to Hai Rui.

"What happened before, it was the official who did it wrong, and the official was too excited at that time, so he ......"

It's just that Zheng Michang's words were not finished before he was interrupted by Hai Rui.

"Wherever and wherever you are, your lordship is just a duty!"

"Xiaguan's approach at that time also had some inconsider, so adults don't have to blame themselves."

After Hai Rui finished speaking, he got up and picked up the wine glass and touched it with Zheng Michang, and then drank it all.

"You're ......"

At this moment, Zheng Michang's whole person was stunned, and his face was full of incomprehension.

"Who am I, where am I, what am I doing, come and tell me, is this person in front of me Hai Rui?"

"What are you doing in a daze?"

Hai Rui looked at the glass of wine in Zheng Michang's hand and said with a smile.

"The official almost forgot about this matter, and he should be punished! Penalties! ”

After Hai Rui's reminder, Zheng Michang suddenly came back to his senses, and then drank all the wine in the cup.

After a glass of wine, perhaps to express his apology, Zheng Michang drank two more glasses of wine in succession.

"What is the matter with the lower officials coming this time?"

Although Hai Rui already knew Zheng Michang's purpose, he still asked deliberately.

"This ...... Well, this official is looking for you this time, and there is indeed something to do. ”

Seeing that Hai Rui didn't talk too much nonsense and went straight to the topic, Zheng Michang was a little at a loss for this.

"My lord, although his words are true, after all, you have also been kind to the lower officials, haven't you?"

Seeing this, Hai Rui immediately gave Zheng Michang a step.

"That, the official invited you over this time, mainly for two things! The first thing we need to do is to clear up the misunderstanding between us. ”

Zheng Michang turned his gaze to Hai Rui, and then spoke.

"My lord, the lower officials don't care about this."

Hai Rui took in the expression on Zheng Michang's face and shook his head, indicating that he didn't care.

"Really? That's great! ”

Zheng Michang saw that these words were said by Hai Rui himself, and the whole person breathed a sigh of relief, so he said.

"This second thing is to be practiced for you!"

Right now, you're about to go to the capital to take up a post, and I, as a boss, can't help you anywhere. ”

"I can only use this way to express my heart."

For some reason, Zheng Michang felt that Hai Rui in front of him seemed to be reborn after entering the Governor's Palace.

Vaguely, there was an inexplicable momentum on Hai Rui's body, as if everything was under his control! And in front of him, he unconsciously became the weak side.

"Don't worry, my lord, the lower officials will not forget your help!"

After Hai Rui finished speaking, he picked up the wine jug on the table and poured himself a glass of wine.

"Since this is the case, then the official is relieved."

After hearing Hai Rui's words, Zheng Michang gradually relaxed his heart.

"Let's not talk about that, let's have a drink."

"Cheers!"

……

"Drive!"

At this moment, the night was already deep, and I only heard the sound of horses' hooves on the outskirts of Hangzhou.

Just as the soldiers guarding the city stopped the people and wanted to ask about their identity, they learned a shocking news from the mouths of the people.

"The person who came claimed to be a close confidant of Cao Shunhe, the governor of Jiangxi, came to Zhejiang this time to submit the letter directly to the emperor through Hu Zongxian's channel."

"And the letter records the current situation in Jiangxi Province in detail, and Jiangxi Governor Cao Shunhe has been elevated and is under constant surveillance!"

The matter was so big that this group of soldiers did not dare to make a rash decision, so they had to report the situation layer by layer.

On the way from Jiangxi to Zhejiang, several horses were also tired!

When he arrived in Hangzhou, he was so exhausted that he almost didn't have the strength to speak, and the soldiers guarding the city saw this, and hurriedly carried the people to the bed to rest.

At this moment, in the Governor's Palace, after layers of reporting, Hu Zongxian finally learned the news from his subordinates.

"What, the governor of Jiangxi has been overlooked, and not only that, but he is always under surveillance!"

"Right now, where is the messenger?"

After listening to the report of his subordinates, Hu Zongxian immediately asked.

"Report to the Governor, the people who came are currently being stopped outside the city by the soldiers guarding the city!"

Seeing Hu Zongxian asking about this, the subordinates on the side hurriedly responded.

"Well, I can't hesitate any longer, bring this official over!"

Hu Zongxian thought for a moment, and then then ordered.

"Yes, Lord Governor, my subordinates are going to prepare your horses!"

After the subordinate responded, he walked away quickly.

The movements in the Governor's Mansion naturally couldn't be concealed from Zhao Zhenji, so he walked into the room and asked Hu Zongxian.

"What's going on?"

Hu Zongxian sighed, and then chose to inform everything to Yu Zhao Zhenji, the minister of the Imperial Mission.

"What, how dare you be so bold!"

After listening to Hu Zongxian's description, Zhao Zhenji was also taken aback, and his face was full of shock.
