Beijing, Yanfu.

Wang Meng ordered his cronies to send a secret letter to Yan Fu, and it was delivered to Yan Song on the morning of the third day. After Yan Song received the secret letter, he attached great importance to it and immediately summoned Zhao Wenhua, Yan Maoqing, Wang Xueyi and other powerful henchmen to circulate the secret letter.

In fact, Yan Song also asked people to call Yan Shifan, but Yan Shifan was outside and was not in Yan Mansion.

"Regarding Zhu Ping'an's secret fold, the old man wants to hear your opinions." Yan Song asked with squinted eyes.

Zhao Wenhua and others are all veterans of officialdom, and they have seen more and deeper than Xu Hai, Tan Lun and others.

The pros and cons of the secret fold, they have almost analyzed it for a while. Yan Song nodded again and again when he listened.

"Xu Hai and they are about to return to Beijing in the near future, and the secret matter will inevitably be reported to the saint. The Holy One may ask the old man for his opinion, in your opinion, what is the best attitude of the old man at that time, whether he supports or opposes it? ”

Yan Song took a sip of tea, soothed his throat, opened his cloudy eyes, glanced at Zhao Wenhua and the others and asked.

"Pavilion Elder, Zhu Ping'an, this little thief harbors evil intentions, the content of the secret fold is not known to outsiders, it is bound to encourage impeachment, whistleblowing and other things, if it is implemented, I am afraid it will boost the courage of some rats, and the impeachment of the Pavilion Elder will be carried out in the long run, I am afraid that it will shake the image and status of the Pavilion Elder in the heart of the saint."

Yan Maoqing was the first to speak, he was opposed to the secret fold, believing that if the secret fold was implemented, the harm would be endless.

"Brother Jing Qing is too worried. The secret fold can only be read by the saint, and the saint in addition to state affairs, but also to cultivate the Tao alchemy, has been weak, there is not much energy to review the secret fold, so the secret fold is bound to not be widely popular, must only be favored by the saint can have this honor, and the saint trusted by the courtiers, most of them are my peers, the secret fold will become a sharp weapon in our hands. ”

After listening to Yan Maoqing's words, Zhao Wenhua shook his head slightly and put forward a different point of view.

"Plum Village, you are in charge of the General Political Envoy Department, how can you say this. If there is no secret fold, the world will do its best to pass the political envoys, and if there is no music and sparseness, you can conceal the pavilion elder, that is, there are Wang Zongmao and other young people who have injured the pavilion elders, and you will leave the crush for a few days, which is enough to give me enough time to respond. If the secret fold is implemented, and the secret fold does not go through the political envoy, it goes directly to the front of the emperor and sends it to the holy emperor, wouldn't we be abandoning our martial arts?! ”

Yan Maoqing spoke again.

When Yan Song heard this, he couldn't help but nod slightly, Yan Maoqing's words reached the point.

"No, as I just said. The secret fold will not be carried out on a large scale, and those who do not have the right to fold the secret fold will still have to go through the general political envoy if they want to play. In my opinion, due to the limited energy of the Holy Lord, even if the secret fold is implemented, the number of authorized ministers will not exceed 100. Moreover, the vast majority of them are people like me. For those who are not my kind, they will be strictly monitored, and they will not be able to turn the storm or waves. ”

Zhao Wenhua said slowly.

"It's better to get rid of uncontrollable uneasiness as soon as possible. The status quo is good, so why take the risk. ”

Yan Maoqing shook his head, not persuaded by Zhao Wenhua.

"The status quo is good, but wouldn't it be better to go further. Dense folding, the content is not limited. This is not as simple as a single note. In my opinion, it is a collection of imperial history, Jinyiwei, Dongchang, to the matter and other several major positions in one, a day of dense folding in hand, we are equivalent to more than the imperial history, Jinyiwei, Dongchang, to the matter and many other identities, its use is wonderful. Although Lord Jinyi Wei Lu has great respect for the elder of the pavilion and has a pleasant relationship with us, he has never been his own person, and he has many dirty deeds in private, which can be seen from his shelter against the traitor Shen Lian last year. Not to mention the East Factory. If there is a secret fold in hand, we can be equivalent to countless more brocade guards, imperial history, east factory, and the position in the matter. Wouldn't it be a pity to discard it in such a tight way, as long as we use it properly, it will be easy to go further. It is necessary to know that the road is like sailing against the current, and if you don't advance, you will retreat. Please also ask the father-in-law to think twice. ”

Zhao Wenhua smiled slightly, analyzed the function hidden behind the secret fold, and admired the secret fold very much.

Actually, in addition to these.

Zhao Wenhua still has selfishness and ambition, and he goes straight to the front of the emperor, and his eyes are hot for this sharp weapon close to the saint. The reason why he took the risk to sacrifice the Hundred Flowers Wine last time was because he wanted to get close to Emperor Jiajing! It's a pity that stealing chickens and rice not only failed to achieve the goal, but also angered his father-in-law Yan Song. If it weren't for the intercession of his stepmother, he would have been cut off by his stepfather and swept away.

Now that he has discovered the weapon of secret folding, his hidden selfishness and ambition are ready to move again.

The secret fold is a collection of imperial history, brocade guard, east factory, and several major positions such as giving things......

Yan Song listened to Zhao Wenhua's analysis, and couldn't help but nod again, the secret fold really makes people love and hate.

Yan Song's face was silent, and he glanced at Wang Xueyi and the others who had not yet spoken, "Xueyi, what do you think?" ”

After Wang Xueyi was named by Yan Song, he paused for two seconds before speaking, "Elder Ge, from the humble point of view, this secret fold is a double-edged sword. If it is used well, it can make a contribution to us, and if it is not used well, it can also hurt us......"

"Slippery head! What is the difference between what you say and what you don't say?! Yan Song glanced at him and reprimanded.

What kind of bullshit double-edged sword, it seems to have a clear point of view, but in fact it is equivalent to not saying it......

Wang Xueyi's style of raising the wall, how can he get through the test in a fool under the nose of Yan Song, who is as strict as an old fox.

Wang Xueyi shrank his neck stupidly.

At this moment, Yan Shifan came back, with the smell of wine and fat powder, obviously crawling out of the women's pile.

"It smells of fat powder, and you go outside again?!" Yan Song glared at Yan Shifan unhappily.

Yan Shifan flattered Yan Song and poured tea for him, and said with a smile, "Dad, son, I'm not spreading the branches and leaves for our old Yan family, how can I say it's nonsense." ”

"!" Yan Song scolded angrily, of course it wasn't really scolding, and then threw Wang Meng's secret letter to Yan Shifan, "Look at it, it's a matter of secret folding, if the saint asks, what attitude should I have?" ”

After Yan Shifan read it, he asked Zhao Wenhua, Yan Maoqing and others about their attitudes, and couldn't help laughing after hearing it.

"What are you laughing at?" Yan Song asked angrily.

"Dad, you are begging for fish from the wood, what attitude should you always have, the key depends on the pros and cons of the secret fold on the saint. If the secret fold is beneficial to the Holy One, you will naturally support it; If the secret fold is not good for the saint, you should always swear to oppose it. Yan Shifan said with a smile, one eye shining brightly.

When Yan Song heard this, he suddenly realized that he nodded appreciatively to Yan Shifan, and he was worthy of my family's unicorn.

"This secret fold is to encourage the subordinates to tell the truth, so that the hundred officials are vigilant against each other, contain each other, guard against disobedience, prevent deception, and help the saint to hold the power alone, so that the king becomes the king, and the minister becomes the minister, which must be very in line with the will of the saint." Yan Shifan knocked on the table and said confidently, "What we have to consider is how to make the secret fold work for me." ”
