Zhu Shiyun slowly stood up and walked gently: "Sir, I feel that there are loopholes in what you have designed before. Even if this person is placed in the position of supervisor, he can still cause earth-shaking troubles. If he really
If he finds something, even if the superiors suppress him, he can still achieve his goal through this underhanded method."
Lei Zheng suddenly raised his head!
Yes, this is a problem, and it’s a big problem!
In the past, court officials had a fixed mindset and placed Lin Su in the position of supervisor. He could not make any big troubles. If you found any problems, you needed to report them to the superiors. The superiors could selectively implement them!
But today, do they have a choice?
Not at all!
The court officials did not want Zhang Wenyuan to step down and could not stop him.
Your Majesty does not want Zhang Wenyuan to step down, but His Majesty still has to issue this edict!
In the future, whenever Lin Su finds out something shady, he can do the same thing and make it known to the whole city. Who can suppress it?
Even His Majesty can only hold his nose and let him do what he wants!
This inspector cannot be kept!
This is the common understanding of the two supervisors at this moment!
Let him go wherever he wants, just not in the Supervision Department, otherwise, they will think that the bench under their buttocks is full of nails...
…
Liuxiang River is quieter during the day than at night, with the sun shining warmly and catkins flying.
In March, the grass grows and the orioles fly.
The fragrance of flowers is faint.
Lin Su stood by the broken bridge, quietly looking at a green wicker in front of him, his face calm and calm.
There were occasional tourists walking around, but no one recognized him as Lin Su, who had just made waves in the capital.
Lin Su only entered Beijing yesterday, and two huge turmoils arose because of him.
The first turmoil was the Wenyuan Pavilion incident. Two pieces of paper from Wenyuan Pavilion turned Qinglian's theory upside down, and conveniently sent the six Qinglian masters into eternal ruin.
The second turmoil is the incident of the Minister of the Ministry of War that has just settled. The prestigious Minister of the Ministry of War was ruined due to personal ethics issues and was dismissed from his position.
In fact, there was another storm. Although it did not spread in the capital, it brought a greater shock. This storm was when Lin Su obtained the Aoki Order of Wen Dao. The impact of this Aoki Order on the hearts of the court officials was the greatest.
Real huge waves in the sky.
These turmoils were caused by him alone in just two days, and Lin Su felt calm.
There was another question lingering in his mind...
About Zhou Zhang!
It was not without reason that he asked Li San about Zhou Zhang.
He heard the name Zhou Zhang from King Chen.
King Chen told him that Zhou Zhang's son Zhou Zili served King Chen as his most trusted subordinate, but was killed by Qu Feiyan.
King Chen also said that if there is anyone in the court who can be trusted, Zhou Zhang is one of them.
But now, Zhou Zhang is dying.
He is saved!
However, in the turmoil of the capital, he could not act rashly. He was not sure whether there were spies around him, and he was not even sure whether King Chen's judgment was accurate.
He said Zhou Zhang is trustworthy, does that mean he is trustworthy?
Therefore, Lin Su did not plan to go to the Zhou Mansion at this time. If he wanted to go to the Zhou Mansion, he could only do it secretly.
At this moment, he received a message from Zhang Juzheng: Come to Green Willow Villa!
Lin Su walked out of the city with his feet, and the next moment he appeared outside Green Willow Villa, facing the housekeeper with a smile: "Uncle Sun, you are old and young again. Tell the truth, have you practiced some rejuvenation skills?"
?If there really is such a magical skill, you have to teach me."
Butler Sun smiled bitterly: "Mr. Lin, don't practice your coaxing skills on this old man. The lady hasn't come back yet, so it won't be of any use to you after you've practiced it, right?"
Lin Su complained: "Uncle Sun, it's not good for you to do this. You sound like I'm lying. Everyone knows that I am one and two... Come on, this is Baiyunbian aged wine, although it is only one year old."
It's an old wine, but it already has some flavor. Let me give you a try." Old Man Sun's face turned red and he looked younger...
Above the attic, Zhang Juzheng rolled his eyes...
In about five minutes, Lin Su arrived at Zhang Juzheng's study. The door opened and closed, and the whole room became quiet...
"sit!"
Lin Su sat down.
"Do you know why I'm looking for you?"
"I know!" Lin Su said: "I did what happened today!"
One sentence to get straight to the point.
Zhang Juzheng stared at him for a long time: "Besides taking down your life and death enemy, are there any other considerations?"
"Since he is my life-and-death enemy, are there any other considerations needed?" Lin Su asked back.
Zhang Juzheng slowly looked away: "That's right! I asked you to come over today because of something."
"You always give orders!"
Zhang Juzheng said: "Choose an auspicious day and discuss Taoism in Wenyuan Pavilion!"
Wenyuan Pavilion discusses Taoism?
"Why discuss Tao?"
Zhang Juzheng said slowly: "It's time to tell everyone in the world that Wenyuan Pavilion is also a holy place of literature and Taoism!"
Lin Su understands completely.
Zhang Juzheng's stance has put Wenyuan Pavilion into a passive position.
Yesterday, he bared his fangs forcefully and stepped on the six Qinglian Grandmasters into the quagmire. Although he was happy, he was also hated by His Majesty, because in the process of trampling on the Qinglian Grandmaster, he also stepped on His Majesty——
His Majesty issued an order to praise Wei Xinyu, and he issued a Wenyuan Order to reprimand Wei Xinyu. This would be a slap in His Majesty's face.
How can Your Majesty be happy?
His Majesty was unhappy and sent a clear indicator to the courtiers. Today, some ministers have disparaged Wenyuan Pavilion, saying that Wenyuan Pavilion is not progressive enough compared to the three major courtyards of Gongyuan, Hanlin Academy and Bailu Academy.
This is an extremely dangerous signal.
If it cannot be stopped in time, attacking Wenyuan Pavilion will become the "political correctness" of Da Cang Chaotang, and Wenyuan Pavilion will most likely be marginalized.
Therefore, Zhang Juzheng needs an opportunity to make Wenyuan Pavilion famous all over the world. What kind of opportunity can be more shocking than the first grandmaster Qinglian's live lecture on Taoism?
"Okay!" Lin Su agreed immediately.
A smile slowly appeared on Zhang Juzheng's serious face: "What topic are you discussing in Qingfeng's discussion?"
"One Painting Theory."
"One... painting? What you are talking about is painting?" Zhang Juzheng, even though Mount Tai collapsed in front of him, his color remained unchanged. At this moment, there was a moment when the outside was burnt and the inside was tender...
Lin Su explained: "Old man, I don't want to talk about painting, but you don't know how annoying that bullshit painter is, the Holy Family and the Holy Son. He really forced me to dig up his ancestral graves."
Zhang Juzheng had a constipated expression on his face: "The Saint Family of Painting forces you, so you discuss painting. If the Saint Family of Music forces you, will you go on stage to sing?"
"The one who knows me is the old man!" Lin Su said with a smile: "But this time Wenyuan discusses Taoism, I can't discuss painting or singing, I discuss arithmetic."
"Arithmetic?" Zhang Juzheng was a little confused: "Is your arithmetic... worth mentioning?"
If facing others, Zhang Juzheng might not be so rude and directly question the other person's academic level, but he really has no intention of being polite to the person in front of him. He is almost his grandson-in-law. How can he be so polite?
Lin Su sighed softly. This sigh made Zhang Juzheng's heart pound...
Lin Sudao: "Old man, although all the officials in the dynasty dislike me and call me a troublemaker, I really have an innocent heart, I really have feelings for the country, I am patriotic and loyal to the people...
Overall, he is a good person... I want to discuss arithmetic because it is necessary to discuss arithmetic. Arithmetic is not a simple subject. Arithmetic is a basic subject. Arithmetic needs someone to open a brand new door. I don't hope that one day
Enemy countries such as Ohsumi and Akagi took the lead in the arithmetic revolution, thus becoming the holy land of arithmetic."
Zhang Juzheng stared at him for a long time, his eyes flashing with light: "Three days later, March 16th! You, Wenyuan Luntao!"
"no problem!"
"Be prepared. When the time comes, I will personally host it and witness with my own eyes the brand new door you mentioned!"
Lin Su felt a little contemptuous in his heart and said it as if you understood, but on the surface he still showed humility and rubbed his hands gently: "Okay!"
"This matter has been settled. Come on, take out the old wine you just bribed Lao Sun and taste it. What's the difference?"
Lin Su's eyes widened. "Old man, I always thought that a literary senior like you was fundamentally different from a voyeur. Now it seems that there is no difference at all. Otherwise, how did you know that I just sent out several jars of aged wine?"
Beside the white clouds?
Two glasses of aged Baiyunbian were poured into the cup. Zhang Juzheng smelled it gently and tasted it briefly, his face full of intoxication: "It's interesting. This wine is less spicy and seven times more mellow. You have it."
How much?"
"One hundred altars..."
"Keep them all! In addition, on my birthday next month, I will give you two hundred altars..."
Damn it! You are robbing. So far, there are only 500 jars of wine in total, and you, the old man, owns more than half of it? But Lin Su looked at his face, thinking about Zhang Yiyu's breasts, and gritted his teeth: "Okay!"
Zhang Juzheng was happy and drank cup after cup.
After drinking three drinks in a row, his eyes finally opened: "Zhang Wenyuan, what do you expect the ending to be?"
Lin Su was slightly startled and did not answer for a moment...
Zhang Juzheng himself answered: "Have you ever thought that he would enter Bailu Academy and serve as a visiting professor?"
Lin Su was slightly surprised: "Is it decided?"
"Qu Feiyan agreed in person, what do you think?"
Lin Su held up the wine glass and was speechless for a moment...
Zhang Juzheng seemed to be quite surprised: "Your expression is not very surprised, nor is it a disappointed expression."
"There is still a little bit of surprise, but loss... obviously can't be mentioned."
Zhang Juzheng said: "This statement must be untrue! You need to know that as long as Zhang Wenyuan enters Bailu Academy, with his own methods, he will be able to clear his name, and his Zhang family will one day make a comeback.
Whether you win or lose with him may have to be decided again."
Lin Sudan smiled: "It seems that I really have to prepare seriously for this discussion...Old man, take your leave!"
He stood up, cupped his hands, and stepped out of the study.
As soon as he disappeared, his shadow appeared, appearing silently in Zhang Juzheng's study.
"Did you see anything?" Zhang Juzheng said.
Shadow scratched his head gently: "I only noticed one thing. This boy may not have much aged wine Baiyunbian. When the master asked for two hundred jars just now, his expression was quite complicated..."
Ha ha……
Zhang Juzheng laughed, and then asked again: "Is this all you see?"
"Master, what you are referring to is..."
"Today's incident may not be over yet!"
Shadow was startled: "Sir, what do you mean...his taking over Zhang Wenyuan's position as minister is not the ultimate goal at all?"
"The Zhang and Lin families have a deep hatred. How can a dismissal from office calm the anger in his heart? He just said, 'It seems that we need to be well prepared for this discussion.' This 'preparation' is probably very famous..."
Shadow suddenly stared out the window with a strange look on his face: "Could it be that... he once again captured inspiration from the sudden change in Xizhou, and first destroyed Zhang Wenyuan's official seal, and then killed him directly?"
Destroy the official seal and directly assassinate.
This inference is terrifying and very logical. Today, Zhang Wenyuan has no official seal protection except the position of minister. In the past, he could not be killed. Now he has a chance. This is essentially the same as the "death of Zhang Chun" in Xizhou that day.
Zhang Juzheng objected: "No! This is not the case!"
Shadow said: "But he has put on night clothes and looks like a killer."
"Ah?" Zhang Juzheng suddenly jumped up, his expression changed greatly.
Shadow looked out the window and added: "Maybe the old slave guessed wrong. Maybe he changed into night clothes just to facilitate stealing fragrance and jade... He went to the Western Mountain!"
Zhang Juzheng's expression changed suddenly, and he roared angrily: "You bastard!..."
…
What the shadow saw was actually not the truth.
Lin Su put on his night clothes and went up to the Western Mountain. He wasn't trying to steal the fragrance, he was just being cautious.
One moment he rushed into the forest of Xishan, and the next moment he came out of Xishan silently. When he entered, he was very flamboyant, and when he came out, he was silent.
If someone were to follow, they would regard Her Royal Highness the Princess's Xishan Villa, Lu Youwei's meditation room, and Bi Xuanji's mountainside residence as the key areas to track Lin Su. They would never have thought that Lin Su did not stay for a moment in Xishan. He had already entered
He arrived in the capital, walked through alleys, and crossed the courtyard wall. Half an hour later, he appeared behind a house in Nancheng.
This house is the Zhou Mansion.
The ancestral residence of Zhou Zhang, the censor in the capital.
Zhou Zhang's house is big enough, with three entrances to the third floor, and the house is old enough.
In the eyes of modern people, old houses are not as good as new ones, but this was not the case in feudal society. On the contrary, if the house is too new, it will be very embarrassing. What does this reflect? You are a nouveau riche.
The deep courtyard and dense ancient trees mean that this family has a long heritage.
The Zhou family indeed has a long heritage. The Zhou family entered the capital three hundred years ago. During the three hundred years, the Zhou family assisted seventeen emperors, and four generations became imperial masters.
The night is quiet, and the night is getting darker.
There were fewer and fewer girls coming and going in the yard, and the lights in several rows of rooms were extinguished one after another. Once the lights were extinguished, the lotus pond in the backyard lost its reflection and became deep and dark. A few petals of residual red fell, and the fish at the bottom of the water grabbed the petals and flicked them one by one.
Turning over, there was a splashing sound from the lotus pond, and a circle of ripples disappeared invisible in the dark night.
Lin Su hid on a big tree outside the courtyard, staring at the room in the middle.
That's Zhou Zhang's ward.
He has also comprehensively tested the protection of the entire Zhou family. The most powerful person in the Zhou family is a guard leader in his thirties or forties. Everyone calls him "Leader Thunder". Leader Thunder has a glimpse of people at their peak level, and his actual combat ability is estimated to be on par with Lin's.
Su was on par with him, and as for the others, they were no longer in Lin Su's eyes.
There was sudden movement in the front yard. Lei Tou took a step through the air, slid across the sky silently, and landed on a tree in the front yard.
