Chapter 843: Counterattack (3)
Yan Shu didn't show up from beginning to end, Su Jin accompanied him to stand on the high platform of Daqing Gate far away, looking at a farce outside Yide Gate in the distance, Su Jin could see that Yan Shu, as the prime minister, felt very powerless.
Becoming the prime minister was originally an exciting thing, but at this moment, Yan Shu had no sense of joy, this prime minister was really difficult to be, especially after Zhao Zhen said that he wanted not to interfere in the matter of changing the law, Yan Shu's heart was full of grievances.
As a ruler, he should have the right to make decisions on military and political affairs, and the emperor did this in the eyes of civil and military officials, which was a distrust of Yan Shu, although Yan Shu constantly comforted himself, this is a way for the emperor to protect himself, but Yan Shu always has a sense of puppet.
Every day, when he saw the public house of Deputy Prime Minister Fan Zhongyan in the political affairs hall, there was an endless stream of officials, big and small, on the contrary, he was isolated as the prime minister, Yan Shu felt a little unhappy, especially when he inadvertently appeared in front of them, everyone always looked at him left and right, although he was still enthusiastic on the surface, but he could see that he was guarded against himself.
Speaking from the heart, Yan Shu still highly respected Fan Zhongyan, when he was in Yingtian as the Mansion Yin, if he didn't have his own recommendation, it would be impossible for Fan Zhongyan, who was down-and-out at that time, to enter Yingtian Academy as a teacher. After his own recommendation, Fan Zhongyan also lived up to expectations and won a good reputation, and even had the reputation of a contemporary saint.
And for Fan Zhongyan's achievements, Yan Shu was also happy for him, he never even thought of asking for a return, the friendship between gentlemen is as light as water, he and Fan Zhongyan are both gentlemen, although there is a grace between the two, but Fan Zhongyan has never officially thanked himself, and he has never blamed him.
Now that the change of the law has begun, Fan Zhongyan is actually still the same Fan Zhongyan, but in Yan Shu's eyes, the distance between him and Fan Zhongyan has become farther and farther away; At the beginning of the change, in order to avoid suspicion, Yan Shu took the initiative to order more than a dozen sons and nephews in the family who had no merit but were full of various yamen in the imperial court to resign voluntarily, not because he was afraid that Fan Zhongyan would find out, but because he didn't want Fan Zhongyan to be embarrassed.
In the final analysis, although Yan Shu has a lot of complaints about the change, he still has a positive attitude towards Fan Zhongyan's heart to serve the country, and Fan Zhongyan does not have any place to teach people, although he seems to be beautiful and in a high position now, but Fan Zhongyan is as simple as an old man on the street, only a few dishes for three meals, and only a coachman and a small servant follow him when he goes out, without half a point of luxury.
"Yan Xiang, let's take a detour to Donghua Gate." Su Jin said softly, Su Jin, who was originally going back to Beijing to sell briquettes, was named by Zhao Zhen and asked to go to court every day, so he was fortunate to see this farce.
Yan Shu sighed, turned around and walked slowly, and said, "Su Jin, what do you think about this matter?" ”
Su Jin smiled: "Yan Xiang knows the answer, but why should he ask me?" ”
Yan Shu said: "I just want to ask you, who can talk to me now besides you?" ”
Su Jin heard his loneliness, and seemed to be complaining about the wrongdoing, like Fu Bi, his son-in-law no longer had contact with him because of the change of the law, which did teach people a little sad.
"Yan Xiang relaxes his mind, don't think too much." Su Jin comforted: "Actually, what Lord Fan, Lord Han, and Lord Fu do is a good thing, they are not treacherous people, they are upright, and this is enough." ”
Yan Shu said: "That's your opinion, in my opinion, even if the starting point is right, if it makes a mess of complaints and chaos, then it is a sinner in the court, I think the old man can't sit idly by, if it goes on like this, I don't know what chaos will happen; Everyone has made trouble in front of the palace, if the emperor knows, won't Long Yan be angry? ”
Su Jin stopped and arched his hand: "Yan Xiang, I don't know if I should say something." ”
Yan Shu said: "But to put it simply, do you and I still need to hide it?" ”
Su Jin Zhengse said: "Yan Xiang must not meddle in this matter, it is obvious that someone has already made a force, and it is unnecessary for Yan Xiang to intervene at this moment; Besides, Master Fan and others are dedicated to the country, even if the means are excessive and the methods are inappropriate, you should not come forward to suppress them, I don't want Yan Xiang to leave an infamy. ”
Yan Shu said: "How do you know that suppressing them will leave infamy?" ”
Su Jin has no way to explain that later generations have a positive attitude towards this change, and those who oppose it are always hatted by wishful thinking, and this is not the same as saying that they are old; only said: "I don't say much about the rest, if you come forward to suppress it, it means that the Pope will not come to power, and today's events are obviously planned by someone, why don't Prime Minister Yan sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight and wait for changes?" If the change of the law really makes people angry, then I will come forward with Yan Xiang to stop it, we must not let the government be chaotic, if the change is successfully implemented, and the government will take on a new look, why should you be a villain in vain? ”
Yan Shu nodded and said, "What you said makes sense, since this is the case, you and I will wait and see what happens." After a pause, Yan Shu asked, "You say, who planned today's events?" Is it Du Yan? Looking at his strong appearance, it seems that he was premeditated. ”
Su Jin thought for a while and said: "Du Yan must be involved, but I didn't think it was Du Yan behind the scenes, Du Yan was too stupid to think of a good way." ”
Yan Shu said: "Who will it be?" ”
Su Jin said: "Nine times out of ten it is Xia Zhu, this person is much more powerful than Du Yanke, I feel that this palace gate is only the first step, and the next move must be more tricky, I am very similar to know what they should do next." ”
Yan Shu said: "I am afraid that the world will not be chaotic, although I don't like to change the law, I don't want them to be injured by the secret arrow, if the emperor asks about the old man today, the old man will still excuse Lord Fan and others, whether he is wronged or not, using such an extreme way to collectively shout grievances in front of the palace is a kind of coercion, and it must not be connived." ”
Su Jin said with a smile: "What Yan Xiang said is, let's not talk about this, Biyun is still in your mansion with Hu'er, don't you want to go and see your nephew?" He has a lot of respect for you. ”
Yan Shuwan smiled and said: "That kid, he will be a character in the future, and he can already babble, what he said is, what can be more important than enjoying the joy of family?" ”
Su Jin muttered in his heart: The stinky boy has a fart appearance, although the first birthday has not yet arrived, but when the wife and concubine at home rehearsed and caught Zhou, this kid caught it three times in a row is rouge gouache, and he will be a gentleman in the future, Ma Debi, Lao Tzu is smart for a lifetime, and he will raise a waste second generation to come out, which will be a shame.
……
A new house was built near the Suzaku Gate at the south gate of Bianliang, a plaque was hung on the door of the house, the three words of "Shengyun Zhai" were written on it, the house was wide and majestic, and the surrounding flowers and trees were reflected, it seemed to be extremely simple and pure.
The owner of this house is Xia Zhu, who was impeached and idle at home, Xia Zhu's several mansions have been made into a miasma by Su Jin, and people have died everywhere, and he can't live in, after being impeached by the four officials, he simply bought a piece of wasteland near the Suzaku Gate to build this mansion, and the meaning of the name Yunzhai is that since then he has lived in seclusion and devoted himself to studying the ancient text and rhyme, in order to show the meaning of seclusion and independence.
But these are all tricks, people who know Xia Zhu know that he will not be a posthumous and independent person, on the contrary, he is the kind of person who will take revenge by unscrupulous means, and was driven down by Fan Zhongyan and others, if this evil breath can be swallowed, then he is not Xia Zhu anymore.
"Zhenri has no intention of sweeping Dai's eyebrows, and he is worried about seeing the clothes before leaving. Zun Qian was only afraid of hurting Lang Yi, and he didn't dare to cry with tears in his eyes. Stop the BMW, hold the Yao, and persuade each other to endure and separate? It's better to drink and wait for the slave to get drunk first, and I don't know when Lang goes. Master Du, how did the old man write this new poem of Partridge Tian? In the study in the back garden, Xia Zhu's hoarse voice came.
"It's all at this time, do you still have the heart to write words?" Du Yan sat at the table with a big belly and a whirring fan, holding a folding fan in his hand.
Xia Zhu said with a smile: "It seems that my partridge heaven can't enter the eyes of Du Shumi, and Du Shumi is becoming more and more unable to hold his breath." ”
"How can I hold my breath?" Du Yan put the fan away, slapped it on the table with a snap, and said: "Today's dismissed officials shouted grievances at the gate of the palace, and I came forward according to the steps we discussed, who knew that when the matter came to the emperor, the emperor actually reprimanded me, saying that I had an improper accident and should not support the abolished officials, and also said that the list of abolished officials was the emperor's personal purpose, and these people have reasons to be dismissed and dismissed. ”
Xia Zhu looked at Du with a red face and scolded a stupid pig, and said slowly: "Then what do you want the emperor to say?" Could it be that the emperor immediately ordered the abolition of the new law and put Fan Zhongyan and others in prison? ”
Du Yan was stunned and said, "Did you expect this result?" ”
Xia Zhu said: "Of course this is the result, we are not in vain, let's make trouble, just to let the emperor know that there is already chaos outside, not the new law praised by everyone in the world, we must plant this seed in the emperor's heart, and then we can carry out the second step." ”
Du Yan said angrily: "You make it clear to me, if you don't make it clear to me, I will be reprimanded by the emperor." ”
Xia Zhu laughed and said: "Dissipate your anger and dissipate your anger, I am also afraid that you will show your flaws before telling the truth, so that it seems real, I have a new dancer named Deng Boer, dancing and indescribable, let's drink and watch the last paragraph?" ”
Du Yan said: "I'm not in the mood to watch it. ”
Xia Zhu smiled: "Are you coming?" You'll regret it if you don't come. He stood up and commanded the servant, "Set up wine in the hall, and summon Boer to come out and dance for the guests." ”
After saying that, he got up and swaggered out of the study, Du Yan was helpless, sighed and followed him out of the study.
