After a long time, Gu Xiancheng's movement with the momentum of wind and thunder and lightning disappeared into the sea of Wenshan and books in the cabinet, and the news soon came out from Wenyuan Pavilion, and all parties who were concerned about this matter were dumbfounded, not knowing which one Shen Shixing was singing.

There are still some people in the old party, such as Zhang Jing, Liu Shouyou, Yan Qing and others, who privately suspect that Shen Shixing, a good old man, is still at both ends of the first rat and failed to make a decisive decision.

At dusk, the Forbidden City fell, the glazed tiles were brilliant, but Zhang Whale's face was gloomy and terrifying, Zhang Cheng had already left, and he was left to sulk here.

For a long time, Zhang Whale gritted his teeth viciously and instructed Zhang Zunyao: "Mr. Shen is inevitably indecisive, and he can't say that he wants us to push him, hum hum ......"

Chuxiu Palace, Zheng Zhen heard Xiao Shunzi's return, and his bewitching face showed a little confusion, but he soon became enlightened, and said with a smile: "It seems that there is no need for this palace to make a move, it's okay, save your strength to deal with those two sluts!" ”

The chill in the words made Xiao Shunzi, who was her confidant, quite afraid, and the sluts in the mouth of the concubine Niangniang were none other than Queen Wang and Concubine Wang Gong.

It is still the inconspicuous courtyard in the northeast corner of the Forbidden City, Yongning's delicate little face is smiling brightly, and the palace maids who serve her are in a much brighter mood, the eldest princess has not been so happy for a long time!

Born in a noble family, how could Yongning not understand anything? Intuition told her that Qin Lin should be fine this time, and even the time to meet again would not be too long.

"There's osmanthus stuffed, right?" Yongning blushed and looked at the palace maid expectantly: "I want to drink a little." ”

The palace maid was stunned at first, and then hurriedly said: "Yes, yes, the maid will go and get it!" ”

It's almost August 15, when the golden cinnamon is fragrant and the moon is full, I hope that people will last a long time, and they will be ...... for thousands of miles-Gu Xiancheng was very annoyed, unusually annoyed.

I thought that the book would be handed over, and it would be a blockbuster and soar into the sky, so after he sent Zhang Siwei out of Beijing, he and his friends returned to the cheap shop in the city, slice a duck roasted by fruit wood, beat the old white dry with two corners, drank and wrote poems with great interest, and made a whole afternoon.

I didn't expect that the vigorous concert, handed it over like a mud cow into the sea, and there was no news when it was dark, so I asked someone to inquire, but the result was that the concert did not enter the ceremonial supervisor at all, and lost its trace in Wenyuan Pavilion!

Liu Tinglan, Wei Yunzhong, and Meng Huali persuaded him, saying that maybe there was a delay, after all, the cabinet dealt with hundreds of pieces every day, Zhang Siwei resigned Ding Wei, Shen Shixing took over as the first assistant, Xu Guoxin entered the cabinet from the Zhan Mansion, and it was not a big deal to make a slight mistake in the handover.

"Shen Shixing is scheming, even if there is a mistake in the handover, he should inform Gu as soon as possible, and he will not be able to enter the sea!" Gu Xiancheng blushed in a hurry, he was also in a hurry, he didn't even say anything about it, and called Shen Ge Lao by his name.

The cheap shop is famous for its proximity to the capital, and there are many court officials who come here to eat, and Gu Xiancheng shouted the name of the first assistant of the dynasty, which immediately attracted a lot of surprised eyes.

Liu Tinglan hurriedly persuaded: "Brother Gu, silence!" ”

"Foolish brother, foolish brother Meng Lang," Gu Xiancheng sat down with a red face and no anger, he was a Taoist gentleman who spoke about Tianli's surname, and he also felt that something was wrong.

After all, fame and fortune are in front, and there is more ambition to refresh the government and clean up the world, the so-called care is chaotic, no matter how much you usually talk about cultivating your heart and surname, it is inevitable that you will lose your temper at this time, and your heart has already been chaotic.

In the final analysis, Gu Xiancheng at this time is only in his thirties, he has only been in the political arena for a few years, and he has just emerged in the smoke and clouds of Beijing, and he is far from being Mr. Donglin who is calling for wind and rain in Donglin Academy 20 years later, holding a clear stream of public opinion, whether he is a figure in the world, and the party is the weight of Mount Tai, and he is in the south of the Yangtze River and controls the government of the capital gate!

After sitting for a while, Gu Xiancheng stood up again, and all the friends thought he was going to do something, so they hurriedly persuaded each other, but they heard him say coldly: "No, Gu is going to ask Mr. Shen, it just so happens that his house is celebrating the promotion and wine party, please go back first, Gu will go first!" ”

The more he said this, the more his friends refused to leave, and said in unison: "Uncle Shi, when we are upright, we take care of each other, and we should advance and retreat side by side, how can we make you specialize in beauty?" ”

Good! Gu Xiancheng shook hands tightly with the three friends, tears flashed in his eyes, and his face was full of emotion and inexplicable emotion - it was a shame that Qin Lin was not here, otherwise he would definitely shout for them: Good friends, for a lifetime!

The four of them got the money for the wine, and walked towards Shen Shixing's mansion in a majestic manner.

The red candle shines high, the sound of silk and bamboo, the Shen Shi Mansion is full of laughter, the host is promoted to the peak of Wenchen, and the wine is specially placed, and the guests are free and easy, they have taken off their court clothes, changed into green shirts and cloth Haoran scarves, or toasted with friends, or drank alone under the moon into three people, and the younger officials also joked with those beautiful girls in the Shen Mansion, everyone called themselves Li Weigong, to see if there is Zhang Chuchen who knows the hero with giant eyes.

Since the rise of Yangming Xinxue in the Ming Dynasty, the officialdom has gradually become free and uninhibited, Gao Gong and Zhang Juzheng both like to have a wine party at home, sing with the guests all night, and Shen Shi's behavior is sleek, of course, he will not throw down this tradition of forming good colleagues.

Shen Shixing is not yet fifty years old, his face is clear and elegant, his eyebrows are still blue and black, he wears a Haoran scarf, he is wearing a sauce-colored tuanhua straight jacket, and he has foundation soap boots under his feet.

But this is what Shen Shixing is pleasing about, compared to Zhang Juzheng, who led the life of the young master to help the world, compared to Zhang Siwei, who was insidious and forbearing, it was obvious that Mr. Shen's popularity was many times better, and officials of all sizes toasted him, and he also responded one by one, even if the official position was extremely low, he could call out his name casually, and also soothe a few words of warmth, which made others grateful inexplicably.

The people who used to doubt and even look down on Shen Shixing suddenly realized that it was not fortunate that Shen could sit in the position of the first assistant, and his ability to talk about domineering may be far inferior to Gao Gong and Zhang Juzheng, but the officialdom has the ability to win over you from all sides, I am afraid that this old Shen Pavilion is second to none!

The second assistant Yu Youding, the third assistant Xu Guo, the household department Shangshu Yang Wei, the Ministry of Rites Wang Jiaping and others closely followed Shen Shixing, they were either Shen Shixing's classmates, or his close friends.

Yan Qing, Liu Shouyou, Qiu Hu are here, Zhao Yingyuan, Wang Yongji, Wu Zhongxing, Zhao Yongxian and other generations are also standing in the crowd, talking and laughing with all the guests, all of them have a big mystery in their hearts, but look at Shen Shixing's face full of spring breeze, and it is not like pretending, it is not easy to ask him in front of many people, so he has to hold his words in his stomach and seize the opportunity to ask again.

Xu Wenbi, the Duke of Dingguo, Xu Tingfu, the father and son of Xu Tingfu, the Duke of Chengguo, Chen Ji, the Imperial History of the Left Capital, Wu Dui, the Governor of Jiliao, Geng Dingli, the Imperial History of the Imperial Palace, and Zhang Gongyu, the Imperial History of the Imperial Palace, were also among the guests, and the expressions on their faces were a little unpredictable.

"Brother Zhang, you already know, right?" Wu Dui whispered to Zhang Gongyu: "The holy decree of the governor of Shanxi has already passed the six sections, and the edict will be issued early tomorrow morning!" ”

Zhang Gongyu's other skills are commonplace, and the kung fu of pulling relationships and currying favor can almost chase after Mr. Shen, the sixth branch is his iron buddy, where does he not know? Immediately, he laughed twice in the voice of a male duck: "Thank you Wu Dutang for your promotion, the student is inscribed!" Tonight, a Shanxi Tuyi will be delivered to the house. ”

Wu Dui smiled, he hasn't gone to Shanxi to take office, where did he come from? I'm afraid it's the white flowers or the yellow and clear earth.

He shook his head and said angrily, "The old man wants your yellow and white thing!" Zhang Dutang, do you know why he became Shanxi? ”

Zhang Gongyu is not a fool either, blinking his eyes: "I think it's my Qin brother who secretly arranged it?" Hey, when the student arrives in Shanxi, he will definitely take care of him. ”

Qin Lin's demon, I still want you to take care of him! Wu Dui couldn't cry or laugh, he really wanted to knock Zhang Gongyu and let him open his mind quickly.

Helpless, to repay Qin Lin's life-saving grace, Wu Dutang had no choice but to follow the temptation: "Does Brother Zhang want to be Hai Rui?" The world says that Haibi Frame is not afraid of the powerful and enforces the law like a mountain, how did he become famous? ”

Think about it, Zhang Gongyu nodded his head like a rattle, he is not short of money, and he doesn't like to take power with his surname, he wants to be an official and leave a name in history, not to mention Hai Rui's great reputation in the south of the Yangtze River, and whoever talks about Hai Qingtian will give a thumbs up.

But when it comes to how Hai Rui is famous all over the world, Zhang Gongyu is a little blind, and guesses: "Say that he is honest and honest, and he doesn't take a penny from fire consumption, and he is so poor that he only buys two catties of pork a year?" ”

Wu Dui shook his head and said with a smile: "Eight out of ten of the teachings in the county school are poorer than him, and this alone can only be regarded as a poor measure!" ”

"Do you want to make a mistake and carry the coffin to the book?" Zhang Gongyu smacked his lips, Hai Rui was bold, and scolded Emperor Jiajing in a book.

Wu Dui still shook his head: "In the two hundred years of the Ming Dynasty, the officials who deceived the court staff were not one thousand, but eight hundred. ”

Zhang Gongyu scratched his hair, a little confused, fortunately, he was born as a salt merchant in Yangzhou, and the place was close, so he blurted out when he thought about it: "Force Xu Ge to retire!" ”

It's finally dawning! Wu Dui nodded with a smile.

When Hai Rui angered Emperor Jiajing, was imprisoned and died, Xu Jie, who was the first assistant at the time, tried to protect him in many ways, and was kind to Hai Rui, and later Gao Gong was in power, Xu Jiezhi returned to his hometown, and his two sons did many illegal acts, encroaching on people's land and sheltering the doormen, which made the people of Jiangnan angry.

At this time, Hai Rui was awarded the governor of Yingtian, and others thought that he had received Xu Jie's great favor, so he would naturally be protected by officials and officials, who knew that Hai Rui didn't talk about any favors at all, forced Xu Jie to return the property, and arrested the two sons of the Xu family! It happened that Gao Gong, who was not dealing with Xu Jie, was in power, and he used Hai Rui's uprightness to make Xu Jie ruthless, and the poor Xu Ge Lao, who brought down Yan Song, actually made a mess.

Hai Rui is very famous, but most of them are directly admonishing the emperor not to give face, not kneeling in front of the peak and not giving face to the boss, or so poor that he doesn't buy meat and doesn't give himself belly face.

Since Yongle Jingjing, the Ming Dynasty Chengping for more than 100 years, the wealthy families have risen, the people of Jiangnan are suffering from the merger of the powerful and powerful, Hai Rui actually forced Xu Jie, who had been the first assistant, to retire from the field, this matter has gone far and wide, and since then the people of Jiangnan have called Haiqingtian!

When Zhang Gongyu thought of this, he suddenly became enlightened, and immediately understood what Wu Dui meant, surprised, happy and a little hesitant, rubbing his hands and just smirking.

"Do it well," Wu Dui patted the back of his hand, and sighed: "Recently, Zhao Yingyuan, Wu Zhongxing and others have gained power, attacking Chen Dutang and Wu Mou when he was attached to Zhang Jiangling, although he has a clear conscience, but he also feels uneasy about being in place, and when the dust settles on Qin Shaobao's matter, he will return to his hometown to be a fisherman. ”

Zhang Gongyu was overjoyed when he heard this, Wu Dui said that he and Chen Wei were determined not to be officials, and they wanted to protect him and Qin Lin to the death, so what was the hesitation?

On the other hand, the old party has gradually become impatient.

It happened that Xu Guo, the third assistant of the cabinet, was talking to an official, and he was a few steps behind, Wu Zhongxing and Zhao Yongxian glanced at each other, got up and greeted them.

When Zhang Juzheng won the court rod, Xu Guo had given them a jade cup and a rhino horn cup, and the friendship was excellent, and now the two were edicted to return to the court, like a heroic image of indomitable under the oppression of Jiangling Annihilation, Xu Guo and the cabinet assistant, the relationship between the three became closer and closer.

"Brother Wei Zhen......" Wu Zhongxing smiled and raised his wine glass.

Unexpectedly, Xu Guo's face changed slightly, and he pointed to the front with a dry smile: "Mr. Shen is still waiting, unaccompanied, unaccompanied!" ”

What does this mean? Wu Zhongxing was a little unhappy, and his face sank.

Zhao Yongxian was more clever than him, and his heart jumped, could it be that Xu Guo had already ...... At this time, Gu Xiancheng and his three friends came to the Shen Mansion angrily, Gu Xiancheng was older, and he was a little better, Liu Tinglan, Meng Huali, and Wei Yunzhong were already full of green faces, and they were looking for trouble.

Under the attention of the officials, Gu Xiancheng directly approached Shen Shixing, and said coldly after giving a salute: "Congratulations to Mr. Shen for being the prime minister, and since then he has spread the means to govern the country and level the world, but Xiancheng handed over the chapter, how can he sink into the cabinet and have no news?" I also hope that Mr. Shen will tell me the truth. ”

Liu Tinglan, who was stupid in reading, also stared at Shen Shixing with horizontal eyebrows and green eyes, and it was a big deal not to be an official.

Shen Shixing smiled slightly: "Gu Langzhong is not arrogant or impatient, the old man is not a hundred but also eighty of the pieces he is talking about, who knows which one you are talking about?" ”

What the? Gu Xiancheng's eyes darkened, a mouthful of old blood almost spurted out, staring at Shen Shixing, his whole body trembling violently...... Yan Qing, Liu Shouyou, and Qiu Hu looked at each other, each of them was a little frightened, this time the incident was not launched by their family, but the momentum is huge, and the plan is so thorough, at least there should be no problem in dealing with Qin Lin, a brocade-clothed warrior who degraded out of Beijing, but no one expected it to become like this, and I haven't seen how much friendship Shen Shixing has with Qin Lin before!

Zhao Yingyuan and Wang Yongji couldn't believe it, Shen Shixing was only submissive in front of Zhang Siwei, how could he dare to stand on Qin Lin's side at this time and strike a counterattack? Wu Zhongxing and Zhao Yongxian finally understood why Xu Guo ignored them uncharacteristically tonight.

Xu Wenbi, Geng Dingli and others looked at each other and smiled, the big stone in their hearts had just landed, Shen Shixing was not stupid, although he was a good man, his desire for power was not necessarily low!

Shen Shixing's face was still that indifferent and breezy look, and he even pretended to be more innocent than anyone else, only sneering in his heart, I want you Zhang Siwei to be the first year of junior high school, and I can't do fifteen when Shen Shixing is done? Sitting on the position of the first assistant, you have to be remotely controlled by you in Puzhou, Zhang Fengpan, Zhang Fengpan, treat Shen as a puppet, you can't help but think too beautiful! In this case, why don't the old man join forces with Qin Lin to bring down your faction and be an upright true head assistant from now on?

Gu Xiancheng only felt a sharp pain in his heart, and the figure of Shen Shixing in front of him became blurred, and in a trance, Qin Lin's embarrassed smile was not far away.

Why, why did he meet Qin Lin's guy and sink into the sand every time? Gu Xiancheng was unwilling and unconvinced, so he had no choice but to cheer up and stare at Shen Shixing: "Shen Ge Lao, a certain piece of music was forwarded by the General Administration Department and sent to the cabinet!" ”

Oh? Shen Shixing smiled nonchalantly: "Maybe it's a mistake in the tossing and turning, Brother Gu Shi, don't worry, wait for the old man to urge someone to check tomorrow, it's all about anti-registration - oops, there is no ticket to be drafted and approved, how can there be registration?" It's not easy to check, do you want to ignore the world brother and go to the political secretary to ask? ”

Where the official recital, for example, passed by the Department of General Administration, the cabinet votes to draft opinions, the celebrant assistant to the emperor to approve the red hair, write the official with the registration of the guard, and then send the scholar to write the shaft with the treasure to make the holy decree, the six departments to the matter has the right to refute, which is customized by the imperial court.

Gu Xiancheng's recital, there is no ticket to approve the red, let alone register, at most it is the transfer slip between the General Administration Department and the cabinet, the Ming Dynasty's yamen has always been procrastinating, this is to find someone else's leak, then wait until the Year of the Monkey and the month of the horse! What's more, this piece of music was originally taken and torn up by Shen Shixing, the first assistant of the cabinet, who dares to check it, who can check it!

Shen Shi Xing...... Qin Lin! Gu Xiancheng read these two names, his eyes darkened, and he fainted neatly. Liu Tinglan and the others panicked, and hurriedly helped him out, not even bothering to reprimand Shen Shixing.

"Let's go, there's no hope!" Yan Qing, Liu Shouyou, Qiu Huan and others were all excited, knowing that they had become wicked again this time.

Xu Wenbi, Xu Tingfu, Zhu Yingzhen, Chen Wei, Wu Dui, Geng Dingli, Zhang Gongyu and others raised their glasses together: "The country's grace is deep, the blessings are long, and it is for Mr. Shen's longevity!" ”

Shen Shixing smiled lovely, and together with Yu Youding, Xu Guo, Wang Jiaping, and other relatives and friends, they raised a glass together and drank with everyone!

Someone with a heart saw a little bit of the doorway, and secretly said: No wonder Mr. Shen dared to turn his face with Feng Pan, it turned out that there were so many people who supported Qin Lin behind him, and Qin Lin's momentum gradually became deep-rooted and unshakable! Today is not so much that Shen Shixing is calling out the old party Zhang Siwei, but that the Qin party is taking advantage of this to have a public showdown!

(To be continued)
