It's just that the idea is beautiful, but the reality is so cruel, under the instigation of Zhao Linfu and other people with ulterior motives. Although the Son of Heaven still cares about brotherhood for the abbot of dreams.

However, if there is a major event that is difficult to solve, as in the first few years, it will no longer be the case that people will ask about the abbot who dreams of it.

Instead, he faced the dream abbot with a complex emotion, not only feeling guilty about the dream abbot, but also very wary of this former prince who was known as a virtuous person.

Now his mantle disciple has fled to Qihu, and no one knows the specific truth. But the problem is that the Son of Heaven, who knew in his heart that it was because of his own actions that caused this consequence was not only annoyed by Duan Shaojun, but also felt that he had no face to face his own brother.

Therefore, those officials who impeached the abbot of the dream directly became a punching bag in the hands of the Son of Heaven, who was in an extremely complicated and tangled mood. Five officials were demoted and retained.

Zhao Linfu was directly dumbfounded, he never thought that the offensive he provoked to deal with the abbot of Dream Confusion had just been surging like a tide, and he was stunned by the Son of Heaven with thunderous means.

This made Zhao Linfu very frightened, and at this moment, he realized that he didn't know what Bai Zi was thinking in his heart.

The performance of the Son of Heaven, as well as the twelve officials, although they are not the backbone of the Zhao Party, but the seven imperial historians have always been the mouthpiece of the Zhao Party, but now they have been taken down by the Son of Heaven, which makes Zhao Linfu can't help but feel a little confused.

Zhang Jiuling, who has been watching from the sidelines, is secretly schadenfreude in his heart, but at the same time, he is also very vigilant. Because he knew that the Son of Heaven still had favor for Zhao Linfu.

#####

Otherwise, how could he just fight small miscellaneous fish and let go of Zhao Linfu, the mastermind. And Zhao Shangshu of the Ministry of War originally wanted to impeach Zhao Linfu, but was finally dissuaded by Zhang Jiuling, on the grounds that the Son of Heaven was just beating Zhao Linfu, not trying to kick Zhao Linfu out.

"Alas...... It's a pity that the old man doesn't even have anyone to discuss the current situation. Zhang Jiuling shook his head, took a sip of tea and said to himself with emotion.

Before he finished speaking, he saw a house slave hurrying past the courtyard gate and rushing towards this side. "Master, Shi Xu Shizong, the head of the Jin Palace, asks to see you." As he spoke, he handed over the prayer post.

"Xu Shizong? Xu Changshi, what did he do when he came to see me? Zhang Jiuling raised his hand and scratched his scalp lightly, his face full of doubt.

Li Xuan, the king of Jin, knows very well that His Royal Highness the King of Jin has always been very low-key, and he has never been contaminated with the rights and wrongs of the court, and the only thing that has been stigmatized is that he likes the art of businessmen.

However, this shortcoming, on behalf of the Xu business group, provided the court and the military with a large number of portable and easy-to-use medicines, as well as felt boots and other good things for the winter, which made the civil and military officials of the court, and even the Son of Heaven, have some different thoughts about this King of Jin, who has always been very low-key and unassuming.

However, it is just a different view, for this benevolent and filial and unambitious His Royal Highness the King of Jin, everyone knows very well that the probability of him approaching that position is about zero.

It's not even as good as those princes who have annoyed the Son of Heaven in the struggle for the throne. Those princes can be said to have their own strengths, although they are not as amiable as His Royal Highness King Jin, but the problem is that in everyone's cognition, if you want to sit in that position, it is not enough to rely on leniency.

What you need is to be ruthless enough and powerful enough to be able to control these civil and military officials.

And the king of Jin is also very self-aware, and has always rarely interacted with ministers, but he likes to make friends with some wealthy businessmen and tycoons to chat about business.

And those people are naturally desperate, they are also a prince, even if they are not favored, but being able to push a cup and exchange a cup with a dignified prince His Royal Highness is definitely a capital that ordinary people can use to show off and promote for a lifetime.

But now, Shi Xu Shizong, the head of the Jin Palace, appeared outside his mansion and asked him to see him, which had to make Zhang Jiuling a little confused. He and His Royal Highness the King of Jin, except when Duan Shaojun's kid was still there, followed Duan Shaojun to the door a few times, and they never interacted again.

"What can this kid do when he comes to find me......" Zhang Jiuling pondered for a long time, but he couldn't figure it out. That's it, please, the old man will go to the front hall to have a look.

After a short time, Xu Shizong led the two servants to appear in Zhang Jiuling's front hall. Zhang Jiuling smiled and was about to say hello, but when his eyes fell on the two little guys brought by Xu Shizong, his face suddenly changed greatly.

And the little guy who he had seen through the hiding was a little embarrassed and scratched his head and smiled, but his eyes swept around.

Zhang Jiuling, who is old and refined, can't understand what he means. I came to Xu Shizong and said with a smile: "I have heard that Xu Changshi is very good at writing black Danqing, a few days ago, the old man just found a piece of Shanglin Fu, with a silk cloth book, the silk cloth is old and dark yellow, and the calligraphy style on it is condensed, there is everyone's style, but I don't know which ancient master's handwriting, today you came just right, and asked Xu Changshi to go to the study with the old man, to help the old man identify one or two ......"

Xu Changshi was slightly stunned, and then he understood that although he was disguised, Li Xuan's identity was still seen through by Zhang Shangshu, who had a pair of sharp goals.

At the moment, he also cooperated with Haha, it was better to be respectful than to obey his fate, and went straight to the study with Zhang Jiuling, and the two little guys also followed closely.

Seeing this, the house slaves of Zhang's mansion couldn't help but pout secretly. I've never seen such a small guy who doesn't know how to advance or retreat.

came to the study, but the little guy unceremoniously followed Zhang Jiuling and Xu Shizong into the study. This made the old slave who came to wait really dumbfounded.

Zhang Jiuling waved his hand and motioned for the waiting house slave to leave the study. Only Xu Shizong's master and servant and his master family were left, and at this time, Zhang Jiuling bowed respectfully to the little servant. "The old minister has seen His Royal Highness......"

"No, please also ask Zhang Shangshu to be polite, I didn't expect Zhang Shangshu to recognize Lone at first sight, really, it seems that it is a bit of a mistake to pretend to be like this......" Li Xuan stepped forward and supported Zhang Jiuling, and said with a smile.

"It's not that His Highness doesn't look like it, but the eyes of the old minister, his eyesight is acceptable. In addition, you have always been deeply impressed by Your Highness, and Xu Changshi's sudden visit and his small servant were brought with him, if the old minister could no longer recognize His Highness, it would be too visionary. ”

Zhang Jiuling smiled and invited Li Xuan to take a seat, while Xu Changshi took on the job of waiting, picked up the kettle and filled the two with tea.

#####

After Li Xuan sat down, he said straightforwardly: "Today, I came here alone, in fact, for one thing, because Zhang Shangshu and Zhao Shangshu of the military department are friends. And Zhang Shangshu's words, Zhao Shangshu generally won't object......"

"Dare to ask Your Highness, what is the matter? If it is official business, please ask His Royal Highness to find Zhao Shangshu directly, and Zhao Shangshu will definitely handle it impartially. Zhang Jiuling's heart jumped slightly, took a shallow sip of tea, and said with a smile at Li Xuan.

But the drum was secretly beating in his heart, this His Royal Highness the King of Jin was looking for himself in such a way at this time, it was too abnormal, who knew what he asked for himself? And what kind of consequences will it cause.

Zhang Jiuling was reluctant to get involved in royal affairs, and those princes in the past also wanted to win over Zhang Tianguan, who was in charge of the officials.

But Zhang Jiuling is a person who doesn't eat hard and soft, and no one's account is sold, let alone a prince, even if it is Zhao Linfu, a person who leans towards the government and the opposition, what happens to Zhang Jiuling, he can also watch the deflated.

This made Zhao Linfu hate Zhang Jiuling very much, but he also knew very well that he really had no way to deal with this capable minister and cadre who was also very trusted by the Son of Heaven.

It's not that I didn't think about looking for an opportunity to push Zhang Jiuling down, but it seems that the Son of Heaven also thinks that Zhao Linfu's power is big enough, so he needs to leave a valve that can be restrained. Therefore, no matter how Zhao Linfu jumps wildly, Zhang Jiuling, who has always been fair and rigorous, has always been as steady as Mount Tai and does not move.

It is because Zhang Jiuling is an honest and honest official, which makes people unable to catch the pain, of course, there is a more important reason, that is, the Son of Heaven secretly supports him in the back.
