The scene that happened in front of the Yamen of Dongchang soon spread all over Beijing with the mouth of passers-by, and the invincible Qin Shaobao, who had just lost the big backer of Jiangling Taishi, was embarrassed and deflated in front of Feng Dugong, and couldn't help but make people sigh out of thin air.

In the elegant seat on the second floor of the crane's return, Gu Xiancheng, the head of the Ministry of Officials, was as red as a monkey's buttocks, he raised his wine glass excitedly, and his tongue was a little curled: "Come on, come on, all the virtuous brothers, such a wonderful, wonderful thing to accompany the wine, we should float a big and white!" ”

Meng Huali also hiccuped: "How powerful Zhang Jiangling was at the beginning, fortunately, the sky did not hide annihilation, so that he died early, Qin someone has no backer in the court, can he still jump for a few days?" Feng Dugong resolutely made a move, which was really happy! ”

Liu Tinglan and Wei Yunzhongqi claimed that it was, and the four of them raised their glasses and drank at the same time.

Originally, these pretentious Qingliu didn't have anything good to say when they talked about Feng Bao in private, and they were all called eunuchs and old thieves for this celebrant and supervisor of Dongchang who was in alliance with Zhang Juzheng.

However, since Feng Bao took action against Qin Lin, whom they hated, the four righteous gentlemen never mentioned the word Quan Eunuch, who was used to scolding before, but called Feng Dugong loudly and loudly, I don't know what they are, and I think these four are eunuchs under Feng Dugong!

Wei Yunzhong suddenly remembered something, looked at no one on the left and right, and asked in a low voice: "By the way, Duke Feng is not an earl, and he is launching a protégé to attack Zhang Siwei, I think that Zhang Siwei is also a henchman of Jiangling Taishi, do we want to beat the water dogs?" ”

"Never!" Gu Xiancheng woke up most of the time, his expression became extremely solemn, and he remembered the secret he had accidentally discovered in Yan Qing's mansion...... Some people rejoice and others are sad, some are gloating, and some are worried.

In the Dingguo Mansion, the little grandfather Xu Tingfu was sitting and playing chess with his father, and suddenly sighed: "Alas~~ After all, Aunt Qin is young and vigorous, at this time, he should endure the calm for a while, take a step back and open the sky, but he is good, he is used to the wind flag, and he doesn't know how to ......fall sail when he encounters a headwind."

After Zhang Juzheng's death, the situation became turbulent, and every change in strength was particularly eye-catching, and the Dingguo Mansion, which had stood with the country for two hundred years, of course smelled the smell of it, and Qin Lin was arrogant at this time, wantonly beating his colleagues, and leading the Jinyi Official Academy to besiege the East Factory, which was simply sending the handle to others!

As a relative, Wei and Ding'er Mansion are in the same breath, and there is a tendency of both prosperity and loss, Xu Xinyi and Dingguo Mansion are very diligent, and the little aunt Qin Lin is equivalent to the "relative" of the Xu family, he suffered a loss, Xu Tingfu naturally felt the same way, and he felt sorry for Qin Lin in his heart.

Xu Wenbi, who was close to the sixtieth year, twisted the chess pieces in his hand, and shook his head with a smile after a while: "Tingfu, although you have a lot of eyes, it is too far away from your little aunt!" ”

"Father!" Xu Tingfu was a little unconvinced, he was also in his thirties, and he was the governor of Tongzhi and the commander of the Beijing Guard to protect the imperial city.

Xu Wenbi smiled with his old god: "Tingfu, you have seen things very well, but you still have almost eyesight, but you are not like our Aunt Qin, who is like lightning when handling cases, and you are as wise as a torch when you look at others!" Let me ask you, in the past few years that Aunt Qin has been in Beijing, has he ever been really reckless? ”

Xu Tingfu was stunned, and thought about it carefully, Qin Lin had done a lot of things that seemed out of the ordinary in the two years since he came to Beijing, but only later did he find out that he hadn't even done a single stupid thing! Such a person will take the initiative to expose his flaws and let others catch them?

No!

Even if a flaw is revealed, it must be a trap, a trap, a stratagem, or retreat!

Xu Tingfu figured out the joints, only to feel shocked in his heart, he never expected Qin Lin's intentions to be so deep, and the seemingly ordinary battle of emotions actually implied such scheming.

"The two factions are fighting, you Lao Tzu and I have never made a mistake in the forty years since the establishment of the dynasty, if Qin Lin and Feng Bao fight...... Xu Wenbi said categorically: "I choose Qin Lin!" ”

Xu Tingfu has been persuaded by his father, the only thing he hasn't figured out is, how will Qin Lin turn the tables?

After listening to his son's advice, Xu Wenbi looked in the direction of the Forbidden City in the north, and a cunning smile appeared on his face: "The one in the palace has always acted hard, and since Zhang Jiangling is dead, I'm afraid he won't be able to endure it for too long......"

Xu Tingfu suddenly realized that as the governor of the Imperial City, he knew what he would do next.

Just as far as Xu Wenbi can see, to the west of the majestic and magnificent glazed treasure top of the Imperial Palace, the relatively low Yangxin Hall is the place where Zhu Yijun, the emperor of Wanli, often deals with government affairs.

At this time, the six departments and Jiuqing had already left, so the door was closed, and the henchman and the little eunuch were also sent out by Zhang Whale, and the eyes and ears of Feng Bao were scattered on all sides, and only Wanli and the two celebrants were left in the palace.

"Qin Lin, Qin Lin," Wan Li paced, kept chanting the name, and only raised his head and laughed after a long time: "Feng Bao impeached Zhang Siwei, but his nephew was beaten half to death by Qin Lin, but it is also interesting." ”

When Zhang Cheng heard this, his hanging heart was half lowered, and he said with a smile: "Qin Lin is the relative of Weng's son-in-law in Zhang Jiangling, and His Majesty is the loyalty of the monarch and ministers, and now that Zhang Taishi is dead, if Your Majesty does not care about the previous suspicions and entrusts him with a heavy responsibility, Qin Lin will be grateful and die for His Majesty's loyalty without regrets." ”

Seeing that the emperor was still hesitating, Zhang Cheng struck while the iron was hot: "Qin Lin is a smart man, he has three wives, but he can give him glory and wealth, and there is only Your Majesty in the world!" ”

Wanli bowed slightly when he heard this, Zhang Cheng's words moved him, Qin Lin has three wives, and there are three fathers-in-law, but the emperor who can decide Qin Lin's future and fate is the only one in the world!

Zhang Whale was so anxious as if he was something, his eyes rolled, and he hurriedly said: "Qin Lin must not use it!" At the beginning, he was at both ends of the first mouse between the emperor and the prince, and he lived up to the emperor's grace, and the old slave looked at his emperor's loyalty was very limited. Liu Shou has Liu Du to supervise the world and receive the favor of the country, he can be a minion of the court, and he is old enough to seek the country, and the slave protects him with his whole family name and surname......"

Zhang Cheng immediately recommended Qin Lin-for-tat, and the two Zhang argued in front of Wanli, for some reason, Wanli never stopped the competition between the two of them.

Erzhang's attitude towards His Majesty was also aware of it in his heart, so the dispute became more and more undisguised.

Wanli stiffened his face, but his heart was extremely happy, that is, to let his subordinates compete with each other, so that the lord could easily control it, if they were all like Zhang Juzheng before, a word was silent, and no one could block his giant palm blow, then what is the difference between himself sitting on the dragon chair and a puppet?

Wanli didn't say it, but he understood better than anyone else that Zhang Whale had formed an alliance with Liu Shouyou and Yan Qing, and Zhang Cheng seemed to be alone in comparison, so as to maintain the balance of strength between the two Zhang, and avoid the situation that the inner court was dominant in the future, and even the imperial power was lost, it was time to help Zhang Cheng.

"Don't fight anymore, you are all my henchmen, and I can trust the people you recommend!" Wanli's smile was very sincere, and he reached out and gently patted the shoulders of the two henchmen eunuchs.

Zhang Cheng immediately smiled, but Zhang Whale secretly complained, they can all be trusted, which means that Qin Lin will be under the same heavy responsibility as Liu Shouyou.

Looking at Wanli's smile, both of them moved at the same time, and they felt that they couldn't understand the emperor's mind more and more.

Wanli was very satisfied with his decision, looking at the banner of Zhang Juzheng's handwriting on the wall, he was secretly proud: Taishi Zhang, Taishi Zhang, these tricks were all handed over to me by you, you are under Jiuquan, watch me let go! I don't need your support anymore, hahaha...... The entanglement between Qin Lin and Feng Bao, although it caused a lot of street talk, but more often it was used as a joke after dinner.

The slightly older officialdom will only smile and shake their heads when they talk about this, in the final analysis, it is still Qin Lin and Feng Bangning who are both young and vigorous, and there is a dispute of anger for a while, even if Qin Lin is retaliated against by Feng Bao, it seems to be reasonable, and it is not a big deal.

The real major event was the impeachment of the second assistant Zhang Siwei under the door of Feng Dugong, and the snowflakes of the music poured into the Tongzheng Division, flooded the Wenyuan Pavilion, and piled up to the Master of Ceremonies and the Palace of Yang Xin.

Feng Bao has been in business for many years, in charge of the ceremonial supervisor and the East Factory, more than ten years of power, second only to Zhang Juzheng, and now he is the first eunuch inside and outside the general office, his henchmen are as straight as a carp crossing the river, and the offensive launched is even more powerful, it seems that this monstrous wave will soon overturn Zhang Siwei from the position of the second assistant to the ground...... This day is the day of the early dynasty, and it has been nearly two months since Zhang Juzheng's death, and the court meeting has also been resumed.

Qin Lin, who often went to court under the pretext of investigating the Qin case, actually appeared in the queue of military ministers, provoking hundreds of civil and military officials of all sizes to look at him twice, Gu Xiancheng and a few others who had hatred even sneered: Qin someone can still bring brocade robes and jade to the court this time, I'm afraid there will be no place for him at the next court meeting!

And Xu Wenbi and Xu Tingfu father and son, Zhang Gongyu, Zeng Xingwu, Wu Dui and others cast concerned eyes, some were worried, some were inquiring, and they wanted to find something from Qin Lin's face.

Whether it was a kind gaze or a vicious look, Qin Lintong reported a harmless smile to humans and animals, slightly open lips, and a standard smile with eight teeth, so that no one could guess what he was feeling at this moment.

Liu Shouyou also has a brocade robe and jade belt, and his shift ranks before Qin Lin, but compared with Qin Lin's smile, he was a little nervous and a little unconvinced, so he turned around twice and glanced at the aggression several times.

"Governor Liu is fine," Qin Lin said with a smile: "I am young and knowledgeable, and if there is anything to do later, I have to take care of Governor Liu!" ”
