Gao Yao's sudden downfall was unexpected by almost everyone, and it is still a mystery to this day.

Of course, the most important thing in the capital is gossip. Some people say that Gao Yao was mixed by Yan Song, some people say that Gao Yao offended the saint, and some people say that Gao Yao is greedy for ink, but these are obviously not the truth.

Lin Haoran picked up the teacup, took a sip of tea gently, and said with a smile in front of everyone's curious eyes: "Gao Yao is not good at managing money, and he can't even take out 10,000 taels of comfort silver to the sect clan who is making trouble, this is undoubtedly an intention to provoke clan disputes, and the saint naturally can't continue to use him anymore!" ”

This answer is undoubtedly very official, and the reason is blamed on Gao Yao himself.

Yang Futian and the others looked at each other and smiled bitterly, knowing that this could not be the answer to the truth. It's just that they also understand that there are some things that they can't say explicitly, and I'm afraid that there are some privacy things involved.

Xiao Jinian has always been a rectum, but he shook his head seriously and said, "As far as I know!" The account book of the household department has just begun to investigate, and it is too early to conclude that Gao Yao is not good at financial management, I am afraid that there is another hidden reason in this matter! ”

He was the head of the household department, so he naturally knew more about the news in this regard, and immediately overturned Lin Haoran's answer.

Yang Futian and the others looked at Lin Haoran one after another, obviously agreeing with Xiao Ji's statement, and still wanted to seek a real answer. The most important thing is that they want to know what kind of amazing hand Lin Haoran used to bring down the dignified Hubu Shangshu.

Lin Haoran faced the inquiring eyes of everyone, first hesitated to pluck the tea with the tea lid a few times, and then raised his head and said seriously: "According to my original plan, I will shake out the mess of the household first, so as to confirm the fact that Gao Yao is not good at financial management, but ...... Xu Ge Lao has made a move! ”

At the end of the day, his face was very solemn, and he looked at everyone sincerely.

Xu Ge Lao?

Yang Futian and the others immediately gasped and looked at each other in shock.

The amount of information in this statement is too much, after all, Xu Jie and Gao Yao are allies, if Yan Song can accept it, but it was Xu Jie who attacked Gao Yao.

Of course, some people choose to believe Lin Haoran's words, but some people have doubts about Lin Haoran's words, after all, it is no secret that Gao Yao and Xu Jie are allies.

Lin Haoran took a sip of tea, raised his head and said seriously: "I can only tell you this, I'm afraid the rest of the things, only you can comprehend it!" ”

Although their relationship with the department is naturally close, it is impossible for Lin Haoran to reveal it all without fear. Even between master and apprentice, the essence cannot be fully revealed, but more or less reserved.

It can be said that the reason why Gao Yao stepped down, the real black hand still has to be counted on him Lin Haoran.

He started with Zong Fan Lumi, threw Kekou Lumi to the emperor that it did not match the cost of the project, and attacked Gao Yao for not being good at financial management in front of the emperor. In order to prove his innocence, Gao Yao also wanted to know the truth, so he naturally wanted to check the account books of the household department.

It's just that when things come to this point, the fact that Wanshou Palace falsified the amount of construction costs has the risk of being exposed. Once he is found out, not to mention that Gao Yao can't bear the responsibility, Xu Jie can't bear the consequences.

Although Xu Jie, in order to protect himself, chose to take the initiative to reveal the truth to Jiajing, so that Gao Yao fell into the abyss, Lin Haoran was undoubtedly the initiator of the incident.

In this one incident, whether it is the imperial court's withholding of the Zongfan Lumi, or the cost fraud of the Wanshou Palace, it is not suitable to discuss it, and the fewer people who know about this matter, the better.

Although they had formed a small group, and he knew that Yang Futian and a few others were absolutely credible, he still chose to be cautious, and at the same time it was a test of their political talent.

"Thank you, Senior Brother!" Yang Futian exchanged glances and said respectfully.

At dusk, Wu Shan finally returned.

After Lin Haoran received the blessing of his subordinates, he immediately led everyone out to welcome their common teacher.

Wu Shan's sedan chair fell in the front yard, and Wu Shan, who was wearing a first-class official uniform, still had the same bitter gourd face, and when the sedan curtain was opened, he walked down from the sedan chair unhurriedly.

Although he is no longer the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, he still retains the title of prince and prince, so he can still wear a first-class official uniform when he enters the palace today.

"The student has seen the teacher!"

Lin Haoran and the other fourteen people stepped forward together, looking respectful and respectful. For this model of the clear stream, they dare to speak out to the saints, they are both respectful and proud.

Wu Shan felt a little surprised when he saw that a group of protégés were here, but he still nodded quietly and lightly: "You don't need to be polite!" ”

Lin Haoran stood at the forefront, and after giving the salute, he glanced up at Wu Shan. There was not the slightest emotion in this ancient face without waves, but I couldn't guess what the result would be.

It's just that they are undoubtedly curious about Wu Shan's entry into the palace this time. Will the teacher be able to return to officialdom? Is it to serve as the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, or to serve as the secretary of the household department?

However, everyone held this question in their stomachs and followed Wu Shan honestly.

"Sit down!"

Wu Shan came to the master of the living room and sat down, raised his hand and said to everyone.

Lin Haoran led everyone to sit in turn, which was essentially the same as the sitting order just now, so everyone could just find the seat just now.

Yang Futian has always been the most active one of everyone, but he seems to be very afraid of Wu Shan, and at this time, like the most well-behaved student, he doesn't even dare to let out a fart.

Lin Haoran is not only everyone's senior brother, but also has the identity of a son-in-law, so he had to ask for everyone: "Lord Taishan, why did the Holy God summon you in?" ”

This is undoubtedly a side knock, and Yang Futian and others also looked at their mentor expectantly.

"If you are foolish, how can you have such an eager utilitarian heart in the officialdom now, haven't you forgotten what the sage said?" Wu Shan, who picked up the teacup, was immediately dissatisfied, looked at everyone and said in a didactic tone: "If you use it, you will do it, and if you give it up, you will hide it, but I am a husband with you!"

Yang Futian and the others nodded yes, but they couldn't hide their curiosity.

Lin Haoran was speechless in the face of such a gentleman-like teacher and father-in-law, but he arched his hand and said: "What Lord Taishan taught! It's just that Lord Taishan, are you being used by the saints, or are you giving it up? ”

Wu Shan was drinking tea, and he was almost choked when he heard this, but he couldn't do anything about Lin Haoran, so he gave the answer and said: "The saint summoned me to the palace this time, hoping to serve as the head of the household department for the teacher!" ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone's hanging hearts were finally put down, and Wu Shan really returned to officialdom. It's just that everyone was surprised again, thinking that the teacher would return to serve as the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, but they never thought that he would be the secretary of the household department.
