Chapter seven hundred and twenty first ambition is not old
What Xiang Chengxian said is not unreasonable. The emperor sent the matter of the Taishan earthquake to the court for discussion, which is equivalent to giving the courtiers a relatively fair platform. What is fair is that although Wan'an has already taken the lead, the emperor still
Give others a chance to speak.
What is competing in this kind of situation is the rhetorical skills of all parties. It is indeed regrettable, and very regrettable, if a well-known orthodox faction like Fang Yingwu, who has heavy firepower, is absent.
But Fang Yingwu said nonchalantly: "Why are you depressed about this? The truth and rhetoric are nothing more than those. I pass them on to you and Brother Hong, and then you and Brother Hong come forward to argue. Isn't it the same?"
"It's different, it's different." Xiang Chengxian shook his head and said, "For the same thing, if I say it, others will dare to question and refute it; but if you say it, others may hold their breath and shut up, so the effect is different.
"
Fang Yingwu couldn't help but laugh at Xiang Da Yushi's words, "Are you thinking too much? Apart from you, is there anyone else who would think this way?"
Xiang Chengxian replied firmly: "I am not joking, nor am I promoting you because of our relationship. There should be many people besides me who think so."
Scholars in the imperial dynasty are full of the habit of worshiping reputation. When a person's reputation reaches a certain level, sometimes it is a bit blind to follow the expectations of the public. Of course, the backlash after disappointment is also serious.
If Fang Yingwu can stand on the court discussion stage and defeat and turn the tide as the righteous people expect, he will definitely enjoy great glory. This is nothing less than the merit of protecting the sky.
But what if it’s the other way around? If Fang Yingwu collapses under public expectations, he may have to bear all the responsibility for the failure, and it may become a concentrated point of anger. Because public opinion always needs to find the person responsible for the failure. Except
In addition, we have to face Wan'an's crazy revenge...
Anyone else would have to struggle between the two options. But Fang Yingwu doesn't have to think too much. There's no point in struggling. Anyway, he is a civilian. He can't directly participate in the court meeting, so what else is there to think about?
Xiang Chengxian looked at Fang Yingwu who was silent and suddenly frowned, "I feel something has changed in you now."
Fang Yingwu was still casual and asked casually: "What changes made you see it?"
"Under normal circumstances, you should be gearing up and eager to try at this moment. How can you be so calm and calm? Are you afraid?" Xiang Da Yushi replied.
Fang Yingwu was suddenly startled. Damn it. Don't be as sensitive as a woman, okay? But he denied it: "What the hell? How can Fang Yingwu, a dignified man like me, be afraid? I just thought, I don't have to worry about this."
Yes, I can’t go to court anyway, I have my own right and the princes are in charge of the overall situation.”
"If those paper-made clay figures can count on you, I won't have high hopes for you." Xiang Chengxian expressed his contempt for the Gungun princes, and then said: "Besides, if you really have the intention,
If I give it a try, I will definitely try every means to sneak into the court. Even if I can't, I will personally speak out through various channels. Instead of being indifferent like now, just pushing me to the front to fight for you."
Fang Yingwu asked himself, he seemed to have a little sense of fear. Faced with sudden accidents, the trajectory of the wheel of history seemed to be unpredictable - the most important thing was that even Fang Yingwu himself was not sure this time.
He was really not sure that his side would not lose.
Although I have encountered similar situations before, even if I failed in other things, it is nothing more than twists and turns on the road of life. As long as I finally succeed in taking sides in the battle for the Eastern Palace Prince, then everything is not a problem. All the previous adversities are OK.
Comeback.
But this time is different. Once the East Palace changes people, it means that the emperor will also change people in the future. Then there will be no hope for Fang Yingwu's life path. All ambitions and ambitions are empty words, and there is no hope of a comeback. This is what makes people happy.
Fang Yingwu felt most uneasy.
Thinking of this, Fang Yingwu silently defended himself, saying that this was not fear, but caution. As the saying goes, you must predict defeat before you predict victory. He must consider what he should do if Wan An really succeeds.
.
Of course, Fang Yingwu can comfort himself that time is on his side. Wan An is already seventy, and Fang Yingwu is only in his twenties. This is the biggest self-protection advantage. At worst, he can hide.
Returning to his hometown, he stayed in a remote village where the power of the imperial court could hardly reach directly, until Wan An's death, and then spent his life peacefully.
After returning home, Fang Yingwu ordered: "From today onwards, we will close the door and thank guests. No one will be seen! I want to take a closer look to see what will happen in the next two days."
Then, three or four people came to visit Fang Yingwu that night, and seven or eight people came to visit Fang Yingwu the next day. However, the guests were not received by the host, and they could only look at the door and sigh.
This made Fang Yingwu, who was "reclusive" at home, secretly surprised. The authorities were obsessed, but the bystanders knew clearly. Could it be that there were some things that even he was not aware of? But Xiang Chengxian really got it right?
Everyone in the imperial court could see that the upcoming court meeting would definitely bring an end to the dispute over the East Palace. In other words, the future and destiny of the Ming Dynasty would be decided at that moment.
The righteous people with conscience in the court are all worried, because the traitor side seems to be really strong, and it is a miracle that the prince's side can persist until now and has not been officially deposed. If it cannot survive this hurdle, it will be completely doomed.
Who else in the court can support the righteous side? Liu Mianhua, the second assistant, is a vacillating wallflower; there are only three types of clay statues of the six ministers, Wan'an's side, Liu Miantian's side, and neutrality soy sauce;
The top management is in total darkness. Let’s look at the representatives of the elite who dared to resist in the middle and lower levels, such as Mao Hong, Qiu Hong, Fang Qingzhi and others. Some died of illness, some became officials, and some were demoted. After several years of continuous attacks, this
You can't even count on the time.
At this critical moment of life and death, the right side needs a hero. Everyone discussed and discussed, and gradually discovered that although the number of Qingliu was not small, only Fang Yingwu seemed to be able to gain the greatest recognition. Fang Yingwu's outstanding abilities and past
Achievements can give others special confidence. No one else can reach this level.
Although Fang Yingwu is now a commoner, he is still in the capital at least; although Fang Yingwu was only at the sixth level at the beginning, his combat power is not only the sixth level; although Fang Yingwu is still very young, his ambition is not as high as his age;
Although Fang Yingwu was only a Jinshi for more than four years, his reputation far exceeded that of the old guys who had been there for more than ten or decades.
Moreover, Fang Yingwu is absolutely not afraid of the evil forces headed by Wan Shoufu, and he will never compromise with the evil forces! Everything that happened in Fangsi Alley is enough to show how tough Fang Yingwu is!
So after Fang Yingwu quietly inquired about the public opinion situation, he suddenly became a little melancholy. He was going to put him on the fire. (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novel is better and updated faster!
