It was a slight cold in early winter in the south of the Yangtze River, and it was already snowing heavily in Beijing.

The long Xiaoice period has not yet officially begun, but it has already shown its power.

Goose feather-like snow flakes are falling one after another, spreading a thick white blanket inside and outside the capital.

Wind and snow are blowing, cars and horses are scarce, and the official road is also covered with heavy snow, and the appearance of the road is almost invisible.

Suddenly, a hurried brass bell rang, and three horses and four hooves turned over their lamps and galloped along the official road towards the east gate.

The bell rang from the bronze priests that hung from the waists of the three knights. This bronze bell and the red flags of 'Pegasus Express', 'Officials and Civilians Avoid', and 'Dead Interceptor' on their backs illustrate their identity - to pave the way for the express delivery of urgent letters to the imperial court.

The officers and soldiers guarding the Dongbian Gate hurriedly got out of the way and released Pegasus to rush into Beijing.

The people of the capital also knew the rules very well, and when they heard the bell, they avoided it one after another, and the three horses galloped all the way and broke into the yamen of the General Administration Department, which reined in the reins of the horses.

The official messenger of the yamen hurriedly caught the three knights who had frozen, and didn't care about whether they were dead or alive, so he first untied the copper letterhead behind the three of them, and presented the message as soon as possible.

Of the three letterboxes, only one had a secret letter, but even the shopkeeper who sent the letter didn't know which one was true.

Xue Songyi, the envoy of the general administration, looked at the three letterboxes and saw that the fire paint was intact, so he opened them one by one, and found the eight-hundred-mile expedited letter from the Yamen of the Governor of the Heavenly Patrol in the third letterbox.

When he opened the envelope with three chicken feathers, Xue Songyi's face changed, and he said in a deep voice: "Prepare the horse, this official wants to enter the palace!" ”

~~

After a while, the letterhead written by Niu Yanshi himself to report the Jiangnan Incident, as well as Zheng Yuanshao's confession, were placed in front of the three scholars.

For a long time, the needles in Wenyuan Pavilion can be heard.

The three scholars were all stunned, and Bugu's body was even more windless, telling him that he was full of anger.

Xu Fan, Xu Fan, what kind of trouble are you going to make, are you going to kill your father?!

The first assistant Li Chunfang and the second assistant Chen Yiqin were also in a very bad mood.

At the beginning, although they were eager for Xu Ge Lao to retire quickly, once Xu Jie really retired, the two immediately raised the banner of Xu Ge Lao and regarded themselves as the leaders of the Xu Party.

Not to mention, this hand is really good. Under the realistic threat that Gao Gong might be killed back at any time, those Xu Party elements didn't care to investigate in detail what role these two played in the process of Xu Ge Lao's resignation. All obediently united under their banner.

In the past six months, Li Chunfang teamed up with Chen Yiqin three times to make Gao Gong's name unable to appear in the main election of the university's Shitingtui.

finally temporarily dispelled Emperor Longqing's urgent idea of reviving the high arch.

The two of them haven't enjoyed the next few years, but this happened again!

How can their Xu Party banner continue? Embarrassing, extremely embarrassing.

~~

After a long time, Li Chunfang said helplessly: "Let's talk about it, what should I do?" ”

"What else can I do?" Chen Yiqin snorted and said, "Send Qin to investigate, let's calm down the discussion first." ”

"Hmm." Li Chunfang nodded whimsily, and said in a very bad mood: "It is estimated that the Nanjing Three Law Divisions have already taken action, so appoint the three of Zhu Butang as Qincha, and go to inquire nearby." ”

"You don't have to worry about it." Chen Yiqin asked in a sullen voice: "What should I do if the pass is behind?" ”

"Of course, let the new Governor Ying Tian investigate. Zheng Yuanshao's confession is all there, and he is touching the melon. Li Chunfang, as the first assistant, will naturally always be politically correct when she says it.

"Then who will be the governor?" Chen Yiqin asked.

"Look, look at the list given by the ministry." Li Chunfang said gloomily: "We'll discuss it then." ”

"This ......" Chen Yiqin gasped a few times with some dissatisfaction, endured it and didn't speak.

Zhang Juzheng has remained silent, which is also a portrayal of his state in the past six months. Now that there are three members of the cabinet, the first assistant and the second assistant, he, the only cabinet member, will have a hard time.

Li Chunfang can do a good job, but he is completely a copy of Xu Gelao, believing in quiet and inaction, and he is more enthusiastic about lecturing than Xu Gelao.

Fuya felt very angry, but the two of them pushed the responsibility of forcing away Motosuke, both openly and secretly, on him. made Zhang Juzheng more and more difficult in the Xu Party, and had to dispel the idea of recovering the high arch immediately, first taoguang to recuperate, avoid the limelight, and wait for the opportunity.

So after a brief moment of anger, he realized that the opportunity he was waiting for had come.

Sure enough, I saw two bosses looking at him together. "Taiyue, the matter is very high, please take a trip and report to the emperor."

"Yes." Zhang Juzheng nodded in response, took the piece with both hands, but did not see Li Chunfang hand him Zheng Yuanshao's confession.

Zhang Juzheng cast an inquiring gaze.

Li Chunfang held down the confession, and smiled a little unnaturally: "This is just Zheng's one-sided words, and if you rush to hand it to the emperor, you will inevitably send down the wrath of thunder." In case the results of the final investigation are contrary to this confession, will we not harm Your Majesty by not distinguishing between right and wrong, and wronging good people? ”

"Then wait, and then present it again when you have a conclusion." Chen Yiqin also nodded, it was not wrong to do so. Many times, the emperor only needs to know the result, not the process.

"Yes." What else could Zhang Juzheng say, nodded, put away the confession, and turned around to go out.

Li Chunfang watched him put on a big red cloak, sat on the waist on the top of the oilcloth, and walked across the stone bridge crookedly, Fang retracted his gaze, and said faintly: "I'm not happy, I'm happy now." ”

"And you're going to let him go?" Chen Yiqin snorted.

"I won't let him go, he'll go himself." Li Chunfang said lightly, and sighed for a long time: "Nan Chonggong, Xu Ge Lao's banner can't be beaten anymore." ”

"That's what I just wanted to say." Chen Yiqin picked up the confession and trembled angrily: "Elder Xu Ge is also old and confused, how can he let his son do such a thing?" I'm ashamed to be with someone! ”

The words are good, but in fact, the main thing is that Xu Gelao's reputation is about to become negative equity. Playing the banner of Xu Jie, again, will only drag them down.

"It doesn't matter if we can't fight, anyway, sooner or later we have to set up our own banner." Li Chunfang sighed and said: "It's just that Your Majesty and Zhang Taiyue are afraid that they will take the opportunity to revive Gao Xinzheng, can we still withstand it now?" ”

"If you can't stand it, you have to top it!" Chen Yiqin blew his beard and glared: "As soon as he comes back, let's wait for the game to finish." ”

"Then you're going to come out with a charter?" Li Chunfang said helplessly: "Can you stare at Gao Xin Zheng back?" ”

"How can I come up with it all of a sudden?" Chen Yiqin said dejectedly.

The two of them were relatively sad, and suddenly saw the old Li Mao of the small pavilion coming in from outside.

"Father, the family teacher has sent a few boxes of tea, please taste it." Li Maocai saluted Chen Yiqin, and then put a few beautiful tea boxes on the table.

Li Chunfang took the box that his son handed him. I opened the lid and wanted to smell the tea to wake up, but I saw a few words on the inside of the lid.

He couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and then he suddenly showed a sudden look, and then laughed and said, "Okay, thank you master." ”

ps. The third watch, I went to do a physiotherapy today, and it almost didn't hurt me to death, and the doctor told me not to stay up late. Go to bed early and write more tomorrow.
