Chapter 1237 Fire in July
No matter how unwilling Yan Shifan was, with Lan Daoxing's "heroic death", this fierce court storm had officially marked the sign of a rest.
Although Yan Shifan is very smart, he is not a qualified politician after all, not to mention that his opponent is still invincible Xu Jie. After losing this last chance to turn the tables, he also had to accept the arrangement of fate.
No matter how glorious he was in the past, no matter how Xu Jie knelt on him in the past, the decline of the Yan family has become a certain fact, and Yan Shifan will also be taken to Leizhou to guard the border by the official.
Just a few days later, the approval document of the Ministry of Justice was officially issued, and the official officers of the Ministry of Justice also escorted Yan Shifan away from Beijing and took Yan Shifan away from this disputed place.
Although Yan Hong was not favored by Yan Shifan, he waited until the day Yan Shifan left the capital and set off with the remaining Yan family servants.
As the Yan family left the capital one after another, the Yan Mansion, which was once crowded with people, officially declined.
The capital is like a big stage, always showing the drama of "a new generation of people replaces old people".
When everyone thought Xu Jie would beat the dog in the water, they never expected that Xu Jie's purge of Yan Party would end. Xu Party's censor did not submit a memorial to impeach any member of Yan Party again.
For the rest of June, the court was surprisingly quiet, as if the wind and rain had passed.
In addition to the Dali Temple Minister Wan Ning, who was impeached and dealt with, Yan Maoqing, the Minister of Justice of the Ministry of Justice, Wan Yulong, the governor of the Cao Transportation, Hu Zhi, and the Minister of Justice who voluntarily resigned, the remaining Minister of Works Lei Li, and the Minister of Justice of the Ministry of Justice.
He Qian, Liu Boyue, the left assistant minister of the Ministry of Works, Hu Rulin, the right-wing political party members, and other members of the Party were not attacked again.
Behind this calmness, the essence is not that the cleaning has ended, but that Xu Jie has had his last resort. Faced with the deeply rooted and entrenched party, it is impossible to finish it by just cleaning up a few officials.
This is a matter of blame for the censors of the Supervisory Office being too excited. Seeing Yan Song falling, they actually thought they could liquidate Yan Song, and thought that even a cat and a dog could step on Yan Song.
Who knew that although the emperor did not want Yan Song to continue to serve as the chief minister, and even did not meet Yan Song until Yan Song left the capital, he still retained a relationship between the king and the subject.
The censors of the Censor's crazy attack on Yan Song instead caused the emperor's pity for Yan Song, and even more strong dissatisfaction from the emperor today, thus making amazing remarks that "those who dare to speak again will be killed."
With the various feats of "Zuo Shunmen's bloody case" and "the chief assistant Xia Yan was beheaded in the East City", it was a piece of cake for Jiajing to kill several ignorant censors.
In addition, although Lan Daoxing committed suicide, he also poured dirty water on Yan Hong through remarks, but this was ultimately a small hidden danger and inevitably caused the emperor's suspicion.
It is precisely because Xu Jie asked the censors of the Supervisory Office to temporarily settle down, not only ordered the severance of the attack on Yan Song, but also cautiously stopped the purge of Yan Party.
After all, as long as Yan Song is killed and returned to the court, the Yan Party’s group of people are actually in the jar.
The fire is coming in July, and the weather is getting cooler.
On holidays, the Xu Mansion in Huaishu Hutong is extremely lively. Whether it is the officials who have just entered Beijing or those who have some connection with the Xu Mansion, they all come to ask for a visit with gifts and visits.
Time seems to erase everything. Everyone has gradually forgotten the former high-ranking and powerful Ge Lao Yan, and has begun to firmly remember that the current prime minister is Xu Jie, a new Ge Lao who is a hundred times better than Yan Song.
Following the officials long for a "virtuous king", they also long for a "virtuous prime minister".
After Xu Jie came to power, he had already shown to all officials with various actions that Xu Jie was not the arbitrary chief minister like Yan Song, but a "virtuous prime minister" who was willing to share power with all officials.
It is precisely because Xu Jie has begun to get rid of his former infamousness and win the support of more and more officials, and the Xu Party has grown stronger and stronger.
The Xu Mansion is an inconspicuous house, but there are traffic in front of the door. Officials wearing official uniforms keep coming in and out of the Xu Mansion, and they are not insiders. They may be mistaken for thinking that all the officials are attending court here.
There are too many sedan chairs here. Not to mention the carriage entering, the sedan chair can only stop at the entrance of the alley, and the people from the Military Affairs Office have set up checkpoints here.
Even so, many officials lined up in front of the door with gifts and greetings, dozens of meters long, and too many of them were filled with valuable gifts such as gold, silver, jewelry, antiques and famous paintings.
Naturally, they did not expect to have the opportunity to pay homage to Mr. Xu, but instead hoped to send the gifts in his hand and hold Xu Jie's thigh.
But many officials are destined to be disappointed, and Xu Jie is already very different with Yan's mansion. Yan's mansion almost accepts all gifts, while Xu Jie has always been known for his integrity in the capital and has long told the people below not to accept valuables.
Something.
Faced with such an honest Shoufu Xu, although many officials were unable to give the gifts, they also praised the "virtuous prime minister" and cursed the Yan family father and son.
Of course, many officials still hope that the Xu family can accept the generous gifts and allow them to grow freely under the big tree of Xujie.
"Haha... Brother Li, don't be discouraged! Although I can't give it this time, it seems that it is Lord Yuan Fu's 60th birthday. His Xu family will never refuse the gifts we gave again, right?"
An elderly official looked at his companion worried about not being able to give a generous gift, but he smiled and reminded him.
Several officials next to him were in this situation. When they heard these remarks, they immediately became energetic. They surrounded the elderly official and asked the elderly official for details.
Facing the surrounding by the officials, the old official looked as if he had drunk wine, and gently stroked his beard and looked mysterious and said, "You are now in vain, and you all know the second day of October.
Is ten days the 60th birthday of Mr. Xu?”
Since ancient times, it has been rare for people in China to live in seventy years, and the age of sixty is exactly a cycle of reincarnation, commonly known as 60, so the 60th birthday will be held very grandly.
Xu Jie is naturally impossible to be an exception. On his 60th birthday, he must be a special one.
The officials realized that many people knew that Yan Ge Lao was 83 years old this year, so they mistakenly thought that Xu Jie was not young, but they did not expect that Xu Jie was only 60 years old this year.
If the Xu family gave a heavy gift on Xu Jie's 60th birthday, there would be no reason for the Xu family to refuse, and they could also get in touch with the Xu family. After learning the truth, the officials also left with gifts.
"Seeking fame and reputation!"
Yang Futian and others also got out of the sedan at the entrance of the alley. When they passed by the Xu Mansion, Ning Jiang spat lightly.
Chapter completed!
