Shen Shoufu's opponent Li Zhi suddenly felt that the emperor on the throne had become very unfamiliar, which made Li Zhi very uncomfortable in his heart!

Li Zhi prides himself on being the person in the court who can peek into the emperor's heart, and three years ago he was the first to see through the emperor's mind and take the lead in attacking the late first assistant Zhang Juzheng and the eunuch Feng Bao who was still in power, becoming the vanguard of the liquidation of Zhang Feng's forces.

Then Li Zhi was favored by the Wanli Emperor, and was directly promoted by the emperor from the seven-rank imperial history to the four-rank Taifu Temple Shaoqing.

At that time, Li Zhi had only been in the officialdom for six years, and he was promoted to the fourth grade.

Similar to Li Zhi's encounter, there are Jiang Dongzhi and Yang Keli, these are the three major celebrities of the dynasty.

Of course, Li Zhi's promotion belongs to the emperor's central decree and is not a formal promotion channel in the bureaucratic system, so it is not very affordable by the mainstream officialdom represented by Shen Shoufu.

This contrast is like the contrast between Yeluzi Internet celebrities and celebrities from professional backgrounds hundreds of years later.

Even the emperor had to follow the rules, so he could only promote the three red people to Guanglu Temple, Taifu Temple, and Shangbaosi, which were used to support idlers.

All in all, speculation about the emperor is the foundation of Li Zhi and other celebrities in the imperial court.

If the emperor's words and deeds become incomprehensible, it means that the situation is out of control for Li Zhi and other celebrities!

After thinking about it for a while, Li Zhi decided to change his thinking, and since the frontal attack on Shin Shoufu had no effect, he would attack the rear of the flank in a roundabout way.

Then he played to Emperor Wanli: "Li Rusong is in Beijing, his brother Li Rubai is in Jizhen, and his brother is in the same position as Cardinal Gyeonggi, which is inappropriate.

What's more, Li Rusong is sparse and obvious, he has colluded with Lin Mou, a guest of the Shen family.

Na Lin has a bad nature, and the day before yesterday he blatantly broke the right leg of Chengcheng Bo, he is really a cruel person!

And Li Rusong, as the governor of the patrol, shielded and connived at Lin! ”

Emperor Wanli sighed, "What are you doing at this time?" ”

Li Zhi said unrelentingly: "With the conduct of such two people, what insight can you have?

Therefore, their little talk is not enough to be believed, how can Your Majesty listen to it? ”

Li Zhi planned to attack Li Rusong and Lin's conduct to deny Li Rusong's performance, and then further dispel the emperor's tendencies because of this performance.

After Emperor Wanli heard this, he sighed again: "Uncle Cheng Cheng just broke a leg, but it doesn't prevent Li Lin and the others from having insight into Dayu Mountain." ”

Li Zhi: "??? ”

Your Majesty, what the hell is wrong with you? Did you really take the wrong few pounds of medicine, or did you get on the ghost?

"It's just a broken leg" If such three views explode, Your Majesty, can you also say it?

Not to mention Li Zhi, even Shen Shoufu and others on the other side were stunned.

What is the magic of Li Rusong's letter that can make the emperor so blatantly partial, just to maintain the correctness of this letter?

Emperor Wanli was obviously unwilling to continue to dwell on the issue of Shou Palace, and immediately decided:

"What Li Rusong said, I think so! Just handle it according to Li Rusong's recital! ”

Li Zhi suddenly became anxious, and pleaded: "Your Majesty think twice!" Dayu Mountain is really not auspicious! ”

Wanli didn't want Li Zhi and other favored ministers to continue to oppose it, which would lead to the inability to step down, and emphasized:

"I have made up my mind, Shougong doesn't need to choose another place, it's in Dayu Mountain, no need to say more!

After the preparations are completed, the construction will begin, and Xu Wenbi and Shen Shi will do their job! ”

Hearing this, the ministers all understood that the emperor had made up his final mind and adopted the Dayushan plan, and it was useless to oppose it.

Everyone felt different in their hearts, and Shen Shoufu only felt that he had done nothing today, as if he had won lying down.

Others felt that this trip was in vain, and none of the ministers could get a share in the emperor's heart.

That Li Rusong is not here, but a letter flew from a hundred miles away, and all the opportunities were snatched!

The most important thing is that everyone still can't understand and figure it out, why is this?

Why did the emperor immediately look like a different person after watching Li Rusong's recital?

Before Emperor Wanli retreated, he issued another decree: "Li Rusong has meritorious words, and he has been promoted to the governor of Tongzhi, received a double salary, and gave flying fish clothes." Lin."

The eunuch who was holding the song next to him hurriedly reminded: "Lin Tailai, a Wuju person from Wu County, Suzhou Prefecture. ”

Emperor Wanli continued: "Lin Tailai rewarded a hundred taels of silver and fifty horses of silk!" ”

For the Ming Emperor, a reward of this grade for ordinary people can be regarded as a "big deal".

Li Zhi is still unwilling, what he encountered today is like a rout without warning, and the experience is really bad.

In terms 500 years later, it's like being "séanced by a machine".

"Since Your Majesty has rewarded Lin Tailai, how should this person deal with the matter of breaking Chengchengbo's leg?" Li Zhi vented his anger and said.

Emperor Wanli casually responded: "If you should be rewarded, you should be checked, and this is a clear reward and punishment." ”

Even if the dust settles on the location of Shou Palace, it will be completely over.

But in the minister's heart, it seems that it is not over, because the real mystery has not been revealed, why does the emperor appreciate Li Rusong's performance so much?

Shen Shoufu's biggest henchman, Yang Wei, the secretary of the ministry, was outside the palace, and asked Shen Shixing very curiously: "Li Rusong plays Shuli, what kind of edge is hidden?" ”

Shen Shixing shook his head helplessly, "Whether you believe it or not, I really don't know." ”

Even Shen Shoufu's biggest henchman couldn't ask a clue, and the others could only guess wildly.

But Shen Shoufu didn't care what others thought at this time, he just wanted to go back to the city as soon as possible and find the person surnamed Lin to ask.

The Changping Tianshou Mountain Palace is a hundred miles away from the capital, and the speed of the huge team is slow, and it takes two days to return to the capital.

But while the emperor was still on the way, the news had already reached the capital.

When the emperor returned to the capital, he would inevitably organize hundreds of officials to go to the city gate to greet him, and the Ministry of Rites, which was in charge of the etiquette system, was the first to get the exact news.

After arranging the affairs at hand, Wang Zhiyou, a member of the Ministry of Rites, hurried home.

At this time, the head of the Wang family, Wang Zhiyuan, the left attendant of the household department, was not in a good mood and was talking to his nephew Wang Xiangmeng.

As for the reason why Wang Shaositu was not in a good mood, even Lin Tailai, an outsider, could guess seven, seven, eight, eight.

A sixty-year-old official is equivalent to standing at a crossroads, whether to continue to work for the Ming Dynasty, or to retreat bravely?

If you give it another try, is there a chance to go further? For example, he was promoted from a squire to a scholar.

Originally, Wang Shao Situ was very sensitive psychologically at this time, but the emperor went to Tianshou Mountain to inspect and summoned a group of ministers to follow, but without him, Wang Shao Situ, how could it not be blocked?

Shao Situ Wang Zhiyuan, fifteenth sister Wang Zhiyao, and nephew Yushi Wang Xiangmeng were sitting by the pond talking, and Wang Zhiyou, a member of the Ministry of Rites, walked over quickly.

"There's news from Tianshou Mountain!" Wang Zhiyou shouted, directly interrupting the rhythm of the other two's previous conversation.

Now Li Rusong is indeed the envy of most officials, this reward is too simple and easy, and it can be done with a single note!

Wang Shaositu commented with a torch-like gaze: "Rewards are all small things, the key is to obtain the holy favor through this, which is a big benefit."

It's what is the metaphor of this letter, and I really don't understand. ”

Wang Zhiyou added: "I also heard that there is a person named Lin Tailai, who received a reward together with Li Rusong. ”

Wang Shaositu frowned and asked, "Is this Lin Tailai the one we know?" ”

Wang Zhiyou nodded and said, "Judging from all indications, it should be the same person."

I heard that in the Tianshou Mountain Palace, someone impeached Lin Tailai for breaking Chengchengbo's leg, and no one else had done it.

Besides, a few days ago, Lin Tailai did appear and leave with Li Rusong. ”

Wang Zhiyuan was stunned for a moment, then suddenly reached out and slapped the stone beside him!

There was a lot of chagrin in my heart, what was going on?

Wang Zhiyou felt that the second brother's mood fluctuated, and in order to stabilize the second brother, he turned his head and shouted to Wang Xiangmeng:

"You went out to greet Lin Tailai that day, why didn't you invite Lin Tailai into the house?"

Wang Xiangmeng: "."

Didn't you follow the instructions of your second uncle at that time? How did it become my fault again?

As the nephew with the lowest rank, Wang Xiangmeng took it all and didn't dare to fight back.

Besides, he didn't know at the time that Lin Tailai was so capable of fighting, and without saying a word, he immediately verified it successfully.

Thinking back again, Lin Tailai said before leaving, "Give your Wang family a little wealth", and also said "Your Wang family's Shangshu is gone".

At that time, he only thought that these words were extremely ridiculous, but now he realizes that these words are not exaggerated at all, and what they say is the truth!

Li Rusong took this recital, but as a result, he was promoted to one level, not to mention, he was a double lulu and a flying fish suit.

If Song Shu is from his second uncle, then it is not impossible to rise to Shangshu.

Wang Zhiyou, who came to deliver the news, became more and more angry the more he thought about it, and said again:

"If there was Lin Tailai to guide at that time, and the three of our Wang family would have been jointly sparse, wouldn't everyone be promoted?"

Wang Xiangmeng didn't want to continue this heart-piercing topic, "It's useless to think about this, let's look forward!" ”

At this time, Wang Shaositu suddenly spoke to Wang Xiangmeng, "Lin Tailai is still in the capital, no matter what means you use, go and invite him back!" ”

Thinking of Lin Daguan's face, Wang Xiangmeng said reluctantly: "The matter has passed, what are you looking for him to do?" ”

Wang Shaositu said: "You can ask for advice without shame, if you can decipher the metaphor in the letter and understand the truth, it will be a harvest." ”

Wang Zhiyao, who had not spoken before, said to Wang Xiangmeng: "You were really wrong that day. ”

Wang Xiangmeng, who was the lowest, had nothing to love, and muttered: "Even you blame me? ”

Wang Zhiyao said: "On the first day Lin Xie Yuan came to the capital, he didn't have much detailed information, so he could guess the second brother's heart disease, how could ordinary people do it?"

So what he said later must also be targeted, and you should at least listen to him finish his words, rather than just turn them away.

At the end of the day, it's your heart that despises others, and that's what leads to missed opportunities.

If you are still in this state of mind, it is impossible to invite people over again. ”

The four people present, and the other three "elders" all complained about themselves openly and secretly, Wang Xiangmeng really couldn't stand it.

He couldn't bear to explain: "You just haven't seen the face of Lin Tailai with your own eyes, so you only know how to blame me!"

If someone else dared to point fingers like him in front of our royal family, he would have been beaten out by me a long time ago!

So I gave Lin Tailai a gift, which was already patient and restrained enough, and it was not a bad courtesy! ”

Wang Zhiyou urged: "No one blames you, don't talk about those useless ones, you better think about how to invite people over first." ”

Wang Xiangmeng said helplessly: "Wait for me to find out where I live, and then I will go to the door to invite!" ”

Wang Zhiyao said again: "It's useless for you to go like this, you have to do what you like." ”

Wang Xiangmeng was surprised and said, "What hobbies does he have?" ”

Wang Zhiyao recalled the letter written by the tax envoy's brother, and said: "This person has a good name, is lustful, and likes to use poetry to step on people.

So you should form an elegant gathering, invite a few famous talents and beauties in Beijing, and then invite him to participate. ”

Wang Xiangmeng listened silently, but he was a little rebellious, even if Lin Tailai was right once? As for being a guest of honor, would you like to come over?

Finally, he said, "When I find out where he is, I will pay a visit first." ”

In fact, Lin Tailai's residence is very easy to inquire, and people with a bit of status have just arrived in the capital, and the residence is generally two choices. One is to find relatives and friends to stay, and the other is to find fellow villagers to stay overnight.

Wang Xiangmeng sent a servant to inquire a little, and he knew that Lin Tailai was currently living in the Sanwu Hall in the southeast of the city.

But Wang Xiangmeng didn't go to Lin Tailai, but took the post of his second uncle and went to visit Li Rusong.

In his mind, the song was written by Li Rusong, and if he wanted to crack the mystery, maybe he could ask from Li Rusong, so why bother to ask Lin Tailai.

But outside the gate of Ning Yuanbo's Mansion, the "war-free card" was hung high, and Li Rusong did not see the guests.

sent Wang Shaositu's post in, and only then did he get a word out.

Li Rusong said that he didn't know what he had written, and the mystery was only known to Lin Tailai himself. So I beg you not to ask again, he really can't answer.

So Wang Xiangmeng had no choice but to take a few servants to the Sanwu Hall to visit Lin Tailai.

Wang Xiangmeng himself is the imperial history, and the Wang family is also powerful, and he can enter the house anywhere.

Lin Tailai is no exception, he was directly invited in, and sat down to drink good tea.

When Wang Xiangmeng proposed to invite Lin Tailai to Wang's house as a guest, he was politely rejected by Lin Tailai.

Lin Daguan said nonchalantly: "I have been riddled with things in the past few days, and when I am free, I will come to visit again." ”

This tone is almost the same as the format in which Wang Xiangmeng spoke outside the gate of the royal family a few days ago.

Wang Xiangmeng questioned: "Your Excellency has just arrived in Beijing, and there are many affairs? ”

Lin Tailai said helplessly: "Wang Yushi, you are late, there are many people who have given me posts, and those who have written invitations must always respond one by one." ”

Wang Xiangmeng subconsciously said: "Could it be that Your Excellency wants to wait for the price and sell?" ”

Lin Daguan said "haha", "Wang Yushi thinks too much, but he is too benevolent and doesn't know how to refuse people, so he received so many posts." ”

Today's state is very poor.,It's hard written for the sake of updating.,There's no time to even revise it.,Sometimes the mode of online articles is really helpless.。
