Xie Qian didn't stay in the study for long, and he left the house before Mrs. Xu came out...... He was in a hurry to meet someone. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Ma Wensheng!

In the past, Ma Wensheng personally went to Xie Mansion to ask questions, but at this moment, Xie Qian understood his current situation!

Once something happens to Shen Xi, he, a cabinet scholar, will also be implicated, and those old friends, including Liu Jian, Li Dongyang and others, will speak for him, but they will not protect him in front of the emperor.

This is knowing all over the world, knowing no one, and feeling unusually bad!

If Xie Qian wants to keep Shen Xi and maintain his position in the court, he must use two people, one is Ma Wensheng, and the other is Liu Daxia, because these two people are the most prestigious and high-status officials in the six departments, plus Liu Daxia has made great contributions this time and has become a hero of the Ming Dynasty, Xie Qian has to stick it on Liu Daxia's cold ass even if he is in the face.

Xie Qian took a sedan chair to Ma Wensheng's mansion.

Ma Wensheng had just come back from the palace, his butt had not yet been hot, and when he learned that "Xie Xiaoyou" was coming to visit, he did not take a shelf, so he came out to greet him in person, and moved into the main hall with Xie.

"Yu Qiao, sit down and talk, serve tea!"

Ma Wensheng was a little surprised by Xie Qian's visit.

Although Xie Qian was eloquent, he was the least sociable minister in the capital.

Ma Wensheng didn't understand Xie Qian's mentality before, but now he probably understands that Xie Qian is deliberately avoiding suspicion, making the emperor think that he has never formed a party for personal gain.

Xie Qian said respectfully: "Ma Shangshu is polite, I came down, just talking about some things in the northwest, if there is anything I don't like, please Ma Shangshu have a lot of Haihan!" ”

Ma Wensheng smiled and nodded, making a "please" gesture.

Xie Qian sat down, and Ma Wensheng spoke first: "Although Yu Qiao said bluntly, I will guess first, and see if what I said is right, you can ...... It's for Shen Xi's business, right? ”

"Exactly."

Xie Qian shook his head and smiled bitterly, "Although Shen Xi'er performed in the Battle of the Northwest, his performance was ...... is not good, and even loses His Majesty's high hopes, but finally for the sake of the Ming Dynasty, several times to the court to report the importance of the government, his heart can be encouraged, if this is punished, I am afraid that people will not be convinced. ”

"Furthermore, even if Your Majesty can keep his life open, he may not have a chance to pursue his career in the future, in my opinion, this is not a good deed, it is better to ......"

Ma Wensheng raised his hand to stop Xie Qian's words, and sighed lightly: "What Yu Qiao said, the old man has also carefully considered it. Shen Xi is a talent in terms of governing the country and learning, and he is a genius of the world, and it is difficult for anyone to compare with him when looking at the entire Ming Dynasty! ”

Xie Qian heard that Ma Wensheng spoke so highly of Shen Xi, although he was a little surprised, he nodded and agreed: "Yes, yes, although this Shen Xi child acts recklessly on weekdays, he is also a talent that can be created!" ”

"But ......"

Ma Wensheng changed his words and said, "Just like what Shen Xi has encountered since he participated in the imperial examination, he has never encountered any setbacks, but he can turn all the big disasters into small disasters, and he has repeatedly survived desperately." If it was said that there was a noble person to help you before, then this person must be Yu Qiao. ”

"In the past few years, Shen Xi has become the mainstay of the court, His Majesty trusts him, and the prince respects him, and his future attainments will definitely be not shallow. But if he can't cultivate his mind and cultivate his temperament, he will continue to be so sharp, which may not be conducive to his achievements in the court. ”

When Xie Qian heard this, he sighed and said, "It's not that I didn't think about these things before I went down, and I was ready to frustrate his spirit, so I sent him to the southeast coast as an official to exterminate the bandits, but I didn't expect him to do it very well...... This boy's life is too smooth, and there is no need for a small lesson, and if this incident causes him to collapse, I am afraid that he will ......"

Ma Wensheng bowed slightly: "Yu Qiao's worries, the old man naturally understands. If Shen Xi is convicted of raiding his home, then even if he has the heart to do things for the court in the future, he will not be able to serve the court; If he were dismissed, he would be disheartened from now on. ”

"I don't think it's better to transfer him to a local government for the time being, start with Qipinzhi County, let him know more about the people's livelihood, and govern the country from the beginning of governing the people."

"Yu Qiao doesn't have to worry about Shen Xi's limited achievements, after all, he has the identity of the prince's teacher, and someone will definitely mention it to the prince in the future, and he will be requisitioned back to the court for reuse, and at that time, he can really take charge of himself and become the backbone of the Ming Dynasty!"

When Xie Qian heard this, he couldn't help but feel a little excited in his heart.

Although Ma Wensheng's suggestion may not be exactly what he wants, it allows Shen Xi to start as a local official, and it is also very much in line with his previous value orientation...... Xie Qian has always felt that Shen Xi must suffer some setbacks in order to make a better foundation for his future rise.

Xie Qian's brows only stretched for a while, and then a touch of worry appeared again, and said: "This matter, I have to bother Ma Shangshu to mention it in front of His Majesty, and I will mention it in the next ...... It's always inappropriate! ”

Ma Wensheng smiled: "Yu Qiao, didn't you think about it?" I went to the northwest a long time ago and asked Shi Yong for an 'exoneration', so that you can feel at ease. ”

"Although Shen Xi was at fault this time, he realized the importance of the land of Xuanfu to my Ming Dynasty, and it was not a big mistake to ensure the safety of Gyeonggi."

"After that, you let him march to Yansui as soon as possible and assist Shi Yong in running the border fortress, even if he completes the errand assigned by His Majesty, he will be credited."

"When we return to the capital, we will find a way to transfer him to a local place, not necessarily from the county, but from the local feudal department or the division, his character will always take a few years to sharpen and precipitate."

"Yu Qiao doesn't have to lick the calf too much, I always feel that your trust in Shen Xi is a bit excessive!"

Xie Qian's face was grateful, he didn't expect Ma Wensheng to think so carefully and help him mention Shen Xi's matter to Liu Daxia in advance.

With Liu Daxia, a meritorious hero, speaking for Shen Xi, Emperor Hongzhi would most likely hold it high and take it lightly, and appropriately punish Shen Xi and demote him, which is also the result that Xie Qian hopes to see the most.

As for what Ma Wensheng said, his trust in Shen Xi, Xie Qianxin said: "It's not that I have to rely on Shen Xi, it's just that this kid is too capable of doing things, and as I get older, my energy becomes less and less, and things can't be solved, so I can't believe him!" ”

Xie Qian's heart was untied, thinking that this was the best way out for Shen Xi, and even paved the way for Shen Xi's future.

Let Shen Xi be demoted to the place, hone for a few more years, and then go back to the crown prince to transfer Shen Xizheng back to Beijing, be a noble Hanlin official for a few years, and strive to transfer Shen Xizheng to the cabinet when he retires, so that Xie Qian can retire himself, and his mantle in the cabinet will continue.

In this way, he feels worthy of Shen Xi and the Ming Emperor, and as a loyal minister, Shen Xi can also get a good home, which can be described as a great joy.

……

……

Just when Xie Qian was planning the future and future for Shen Xi, in the Marquis of Shouning's Mansion in the capital, Zhang Yanling sat in the study with a straight face, holding a beautiful illustrated version of "Golden Vase Plum" in his hand, but he couldn't look at it at all, and stood up from time to time and leaned in front of the window to look.

Because of Liu Daxia's victory in the northwest, martial law in the capital should be lifted in a short time, and Zhang Yanling's hard-won way to make a fortune will be cut off, and the good days are coming to an end.

Zhang Yanling came to the Shouning Marquis Mansion to mention this matter to his brother, hoping that Zhang Heling would use the influence of the Zhang family in the court to let Emperor Hongzhi take the initiative to continue martial law until the army triumphed, so that he could make an extra two months of windfall.

However, Zhang Yanling waited in the Shouning Marquis Mansion for more than an hour, but he didn't see Zhang Heling.

Although the housekeeper had already told him that Zhang Heling went to the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies to discuss the major affairs of the military aircraft, Zhang Yanling just felt unhappy, thinking that neither Emperor Hongzhi nor the British Duke Zhang Mao took themselves seriously, and did not discuss any important matters with him, and his brother always regarded himself as a child and did not call himself anything.
