In front of Yang Yiqing, Xie Qian wrote a memorial to call Chen Xi back to the capital, and specifically proposed that the British Duke and Chief Secretary Zhang Lun return to Beijing early and join the Governor's Office of the Five Army to experience training.

Yang Yiqing basically had no opinions. At this time, he was thinking about his worries... all involved Shen Xi.

Yang Yiqing used to support Chen Xi's return to the capital, but now he has selfish intentions and doesn't want Chen Xi to come back. This is completely contrary to Xie Qian's opinion.

Xie Qian finished writing the memorial and discussed it with Yang Yiqing again.

Yang Yiqing still took a perfunctory attitude and handed over the decision to Xie Qian.

Xie Qian browsed from beginning to end and finally handed the memorial to Yang Yiqing: "It is most appropriate for Ying Ning, you can report this matter... Take it back and see if some of the sentences need to be modified. It will be submitted to the Tongzhengsi Department within today... I have someone send the memorial to Xuzhou in a short period of time as much as possible."

Yang Yiqing was unexpected and panickedly refused: "Gei Master, I'm afraid it's difficult to be competent."

As soon as he said that, he saw Xie Qian's sharp gaze looking over... Yang Yiqing did not object before, and he was unable to get rid of the tiger at this time, so he had to stretch out his hand.

Xie Qian sighed and said, "Ying Ning, I didn't mean to make things difficult for you. How many people in this court can I trust? The six ministers of the Ministry of Justice took two of them. He is not in the capital now. I can only place my hope on you if I have anything to do."

Xie Qian showed respect for Yang Yiqing, but Yang Yiqing was not flattered at all, because after Yang Yiqing took the position of Minister of Revenue, he clearly felt the mentality of mutual use among ministers. It was impossible for him to obey Xie Qian as he used to be a foreign official.

After Yang Yiqing took the memorial, Xie Qian patted Yang Yiqing's shoulder with relief: "This matter is left to you... Don't talk to outsiders. As for whether Your Majesty will allow it, let's talk about it. I will also go to Jiangnan to make sure that Zhihou is ready to return to the capital."

...

...

Yang Yiqing returned to the Ministry of Revenue and rewritten the memorial in his own tone. When he was about to leave the shift, he sent the memorial to the Tongzheng Department. Suddenly, he heard that the emperor sent an imperial edict from Xuzhou, involving major events in the court.

Yang Yiqing came out of the Ministry of Revenue and happened to meet Li Liu who was passing by.

Li Jue got off the sedan chair and walked to Yang Yiqing: "Ying would rather have heard of it? Zhihou stepped down as Minister of War. His Majesty ordered Dehua to return to the capital to take over his post."

"ah?"

Yang Yiqing was shocked.

Although Yang Yiqing is quite sure of the ability of the three-sided governor Wang Qiong, after all, Wang Qiong was his old subordinate when he was in the northwest, according to his qualifications in the court, he was the best candidate to replace Chen Xi as the Minister of War... According to the unspoken rules of the officialdom, the Minister of War of the Six Ministry of War was half a level higher than the Minister of Revenue.

Li Wu said: "It was His Majesty who sent someone back to inform the people, and he also sent someone to the northwest to inform Dehua, asking him to return to Beijing as soon as possible to perform his duties."

Yang Yiqing hurriedly asked, "Zhihou is just resigning as Minister of War? Then can his position as Minister of Personnel change?"

Li Jue thought for a while and shook his head, "I haven't heard of this, I think there should be no change. Zhihou stayed in Jiangnan, and many affairs in the capital were not under control... I think this is the only way."

Yang Yiqing asked again: "Who will take over the position of the three-sided general system?"

Li Li paused for a moment before answering: "I heard that it was Hu Chongqi... I was unable to be competent with the qualifications of the heavy weapon, but I think His Majesty made this decision after discussing with Zhihou... It depends on what the next imperial edict will be."

When Yang Yiqing heard that Hu Lian was going to replace Wang Qiong as the governor of the three sides, he felt uncomfortable.

Hu Lian's foundation in the court was too shallow. Even though he had followed Chen Xi and made many military achievements before, he was always a governor, which was an extraordinary promotion during the war. Now he suddenly said that he wanted Hu Lian to be the supreme military commander in the northwest. Yang Yiqing felt even more that Emperor Zhengde was inclined to promote and reuse the people in the Chen Xi faction.

But then Yang Yiqing thought again: "Dehua is not a person who is so tall... Before, when Mr. Xie was in the northwest, he took Mr. Xie's orders from him everywhere. This time, Dehua returned to the capital, which should be a constraint on Mr. Xie."

...

...

Yang Yiqing and Li Jue arrived at the gate of the Ministry of War together.

Xie Qian, Yang Tinghe, Zhang Zilin and others also rushed over to hear the news. The angel who came to Xuzhou to announce the imperial eunuchs Liu Li and Gu Qing in the rank of the Sili Supervisory Hall.

"Are you all here?" Liu Li and Zhang Yuan had a good relationship and had a higher status than Gu Qing. This time he served as the official envoy for the imperial edict.

Liu Li and Gu Qing were two ministers of the Ministry of War. The left minister Lu Wan had just returned from Shandong. He had previously led troops to quell the rebellion and provide relief to the victims in the Shandong area. Wang Shouren, the right minister, stayed in the capital to manage the affairs of the Ministry of War.

Because Liu Li, Gu Qing and others came out of the Ministry of War, it was stated that the edict had ended.

Xie Qian had just arrived and went forward and asked directly: "It was His Majesty who sent two father-in-laws back to Beijing to pass the imperial edict?"

Liu Li smiled and said, "Look at what Mr. Xie said... If it weren't for Your Majesty's Imperial, who would dare to bring the Imperial Imperial?"

Xie Qian said: "The Minister of War changed and the Minister of War should be determined based on the court's argument. Why did Your Majesty suddenly issue an order and no one in the court know about it? Could you discuss this with the former Minister of War?"

When the people around him saw Xie Qian's attitude, they found it difficult to understand.

Even Yang Yiqing was thinking: "Ge Lao Xie has always had a lot of opinions about Zhihou's role as the two ministers, and there are many criticisms in the court. Why do he seem to have a lot of dissatisfaction with Zhihou's resignation and Dehua's promotion? Is it just because it is not in compliance with the rules?"

Liu Li originally greeted him with a smile, but when he heard this, he couldn't help but look straight and shook his head and said, "I don't know anything about the question raised by Mr. Xie. Why don't you always ask Your Majesty?"

Gu Qing was speaking beside him: "Your Majesty will return to the capital soon. It is OK for Mr. Xie to go to ask His Majesty in person."

Xie Qian's face was pitch black. He had the highest status among the people present and spoke very much. However, he knew nothing about Wang Qiong's replacement of Chen Xi as Minister of War. This was the key to the problem.

Xie Qian said: "At first calm in the south of the Yangtze River, the people's hearts are unstable, and the northwest is full of chaos. Dayan Khan will make a comeback at any time. At this time, it is not too cautious about the change of Ministers of War. I will definitely submit a memorial, asking Your Majesty to take back your order, and it will not be too late to make a decision after your Majesty returns to the capital and discuss with the ministers."

Yang Yiqing thought to himself: "Just Xie Ge Lao said that he would let Zhihou return to Beijing, and Your Majesty here replaced Zhihou as the Minister of War. It seems that Your Majesty has taken the lead, so it would be strange if Mr Xie Ge Lao is not in a hurry."

The matter of Chen Xi's return to the court was originally ambiguous, but at this moment it was decided. Xie Qian had been hesitating before, but now Wang Qiong entered Beijing, and the position of Minister of War was changing first. Xie Qian felt the aura of a storm coming and immediately showed his aura as the chief minister.

Liu Li and Gu Qing were not qualified to challenge Xie Qian, the elder of the three dynasties. They could not express their opinions on Xie Qian's questioning and decision. They looked at each other and left in shame.

Xie Qian then summoned the main civil officials in the court together and focused on the matter of Chen Xi returning to the court.

Yang Yiqing was originally under great pressure for Xie Qian to order him to submit a memorial to the emperor, but now he is finally relieved. Xie Qian and the people in the court have submitted a memorial together. However, in addition to asking Chen Xi to return to the court, he also emphasized that the current change of personnel in the court is not suitable for the change of personnel, which is clearly intended to block Wang Qiong's path to the promotion of Minister of War.

After the joint report was written, Xie Qian sent a special person to Xuzhou without stopping.

...

...

In Xuzhou City.

In the past two days, Zhu Houzhao continued to "make trouble" in the market, and did not feel a wave against him at all.

Zhu Houzhao sent people to Xuzhou City to make trouble everywhere in the next few days. He was like a commander, looking for a teahouse and a restaurant during the day to make news. The people sent out were harassed by the people, and the state government office was helpless.

Zhang Yong never had a chance to meet the saint. He heard about the chaos in Xuzhou City in the inn at the inn and kept waiting for Xiao Tiaozi to hear the news, but unfortunately he could not meet again.

"Xiao Taozi said he couldn't come to see me, so he really treated me as a stranger... He wanted to leave me alone in the position of the Sili Supervisor?" Zhang Yong was angry in his heart, but he had no choice.

That afternoon, Zhu Houzhao still stayed calmly and continued to go out to play his old trick of making trouble while complaining.

Tang Yin did not need to follow him, so he went directly to the post station to find Zhang Yong. After the two of them met briefly, Tang Yin quickly revealed his worries.

"...Your Majesty is the lord of the world. What your Majesty wants to do? Our ministers should not interfere. But now what Your Majesty has done has seriously disrupted people's livelihood. Local officials dare not report it in slightest words. But if Eunuch Zhang likes his loyal ministers choose to stand by, over time, it will inevitably lead to public resentment, and perhaps a rebellion will be brewing."

Zhang Yong frowned: "Bohu means... let our family advise Your Majesty?"

Zhang Yong is not a fool. He knew that even if he was a secretary of the Sili, he seemed extremely honorable to outsiders, but in the eyes of the emperor, he was just a slave and had no right to comment on the emperor's affairs. At this time, he was tantamount to persuade him.

Tang Yin took out a book from his arms and handed it to Zhang Yong: "Your Majesty's actions in the past few days have been recorded in detail. Although Your Majesty has not done anything to abduct, it has left everyone in Xuzhou at risk. This is related to the improper preparations for the local government to welcome him before. Your Majesty intends to kill the local government."

Zhang Yong said: "Since Bohu, you know that Your Majesty intends to embarrass local officials, why do you still want our family to get into trouble?"

Tang Yin shook his head and said seriously: "There are many things that are not turned back. Even if His Majesty thinks it is too ridiculous, there is a way out. Eunuch Zhang may not necessarily advise His Majesty himself, but he can also say hello to local officials, so that they can be honest and wrong, and satisfy His Majesty. Also... If the Queen is willing to come forward to persuade him, the effect will be very good."

Zhang Yong's eyes were puzzled, "Our family is still slight... After all, there is still an eunuch in Xuzhou City, and he will send the message to you if you have anything to do. As for the Queen... Bo Hu, aren't you laughing?"

Tang Yin said: "I wonder if Eunuch Zhang, in this palace, in addition to the eunuchs on duty and the palace maids who are on duty, can we foreign ministers have the opportunity to meet the Empress?"

"This...of course it is impossible." Zhang Yongdao.

Tang Yin nodded and said, "Eunuch Zhang is now difficult to meet the saint, but if you want to meet the queen, you should be able to do it through relationships... Who else in this world can persuade His Majesty except the queen?"

Zhang Yong suddenly woke up, secretly pondering the gains and losses in his heart, but he didn't say anything for a moment.

Tang Yin continued: "Your Majesty has obviously restrained himself in the past two days, but local officials are still hunching their heads. Your Majesty's goal has not been achieved, and no one can directly advise Your Majesty... So your Majesty has not stopped making any nonsense... "

"If Eunuch Zhang mediates from it, he can communicate with the local officials and let them change, and then ask the queen to mediate, even if His Majesty doesn't know your contribution for a while, and he will understand the whole story, he will definitely look at Eunuch Zhang differently."

Zhang Yong smiled and said, "What is Bohu saying? Our family just wants to calm the farce as soon as possible."

Tang Yin stood up and saluted: "Then I will entrust you to Eunuch Zhang, I will be so entrusted to you. Only then can I be so slight. Now I can't even see the sage, let alone mediate from it. This matter can be big or small, and it's a blessing for Eunuch Zhang."

...

...

After Zhang Yong sent Tang Yin away, he immediately sent someone to notify Xiao Guozi.

Although Zhang Yong and Xiao Guozi cannot meet now, as long as Zhang Yong wants to, he still has a way to convey his meaning to Xiao Guozi. After all, there are his people in the palace.

After nightfall, Zhu Houzhao had not yet returned to the road, Xiao Tiaozi took the lead and went to the front to handle the matter. When he was walking at the side door, Xiao Tiaozi met Zhang Yong briefly.

"What, do you want to see the Queen? What does this mean?" Xiao Guozi asked immediately.

Zhang Yong sent someone to spread the message before, but he couldn't tell the plan. He quickly said Tang Yin's suggestion in his tone. It was Tang Yin's idea not to mention a word.

"...The key is two points. Local officials are aware of the knowledge and tactfulness, so that His Majesty can relieve his anger; then he asks the Empress to come forward to persuade him. His Majesty has always respected the Empress and will definitely listen to it. What if he twists the father-in-law's mind?" Zhang Yong finally concluded.

Xiao Tiaozi is very clever. After listening to Zhang Yong's analysis and summary, he instantly found the idea to solve the puzzle.

Xiao Tiaozi said: "Zhang Yuan has been instigating His Majesty to cause trouble these two days. His Majesty originally intended to stop, but he talked a lot from the side, saying the local officials was worthless and had no intention of mediating at all. If you can contact the local officials and let them admit their mistakes to His Majesty... His Majesty would naturally not insist...but..."

At the end, Xiao Guozi was a little doubtful: "No one dared to take the initiative when it comes to the Queen... Usually, the Queen is served by a special palace maid, so it is difficult for us, the eunuchs, to get close to each other... It is very difficult to deal with!"

Zhang Yongdao: "As long as your Majesty doesn't know, it shouldn't be difficult to just give advice to the Queen?"

Xiao Tiaozi glanced at Zhang Yong: "What you mean by saying is that you want to see the Queen on your back? Do you know how great a sin is this?"

Zhang Yong explained: "I just want to resolve the current predicament earlier, but I don't mean to make my father-in-law embarrassed... If I don't want to go, I might as well let me try it."

Xiao Taozi thought about it and nodded, "Of course you will go, our family is just to arrange it for you... Even if His Majesty asks you, you can't push the responsibility to our family."

"I understand, understand." Zhang Yongdao.

Xiao Tiaozi said: "If you want to see the Queen, you can only go to the side door of the backyard to try your luck... The Queen will occasionally come out to get some breath in the past two days... But the Queen has always been low-key in her behavior, and after she comes out, she just goes to the surrounding street markets and does not let the guards disturb the people..."

Zhang Yongdao: "It means let our family meet Feng Jia outside?"

Xiao Guozi said naturally: "If you are here, our family will not be able to escape. It is safer to be outside. If something happens, you will be responsible for it... Our family will tell you when the Empress will come out and where the person is. Just try it. If you don't see anyone, you won't blame our family!"

When Zhang Yong heard this, he felt helpless, but he knew that he could not force this matter, so he had to nod his head aggrievedly.

Xiao Guozi looked at Zhang Yong: "We can help arrange the meeting with local officials... Zang Xian knows him? He has been in contact with local officials these days. He will come tonight. I will ask him to take you to meet local officials."
