Chapter 555 Get out of the capital! (Please vote for me!)
The Ministry of Industry carriage that was pierced was transporting materials for the Martyrs' Shrine project.
The officer who escorted the carriage did not resist, threw down the carriage and walked away silently.
After returning home, he discussed with the scribe, and the officer reported the loss of two cars. The reason was that they were damaged by Lin, a gatekeeper of Xizhimen.
And when Lin Tailai was talking to Uncle Shen, Mr. Pang who was waiting next to him was frightened again!
Because he saw it with his own eyes and ears, Grandpa Lin was going to be cruel again!
The last time he acted cruelly, Liu Mengguan turned into Liu Zhonglie who shocked the court!
Do you want your boss to transform into Pang Zhongyi this time?
But I haven’t had time to say a loving farewell to my wife, children, and children at home!
Here, Lin Tailai saw off Shen Yongmao, and then caught a glimpse of Mr. Pang's miserable appearance, and sneered, "Why are you panicking?"
Mr. Pang Ba replied: "The arrow is on the string, how can you not panic?"
Lin Tailai was a rare kindhearted person who comforted him and said: "You are a strategic deterrent weapon, and its function is to deter others on the surface, or to show others, but not to actually use it!"
So you can rest assured that you will not become another Liu Zhonglie!"
Two days later, the officialdom of the capital continued to calm down with the tacit understanding of several major players.
But one day later, the peace was broken again.
Dozens of scholars, including a large number of Imperial College students, suddenly gathered outside the gate of Sifu Wang Jiaping's mansion.
They all shouted in unison that Wang Jiaping took the lead in betraying Zhongliang, flattering the emperor, and his body was placed in a wrong position for the country.
Wang Sige was always a man who cared about face and reputation. He was immediately ashamed and closed the door tightly, strictly prohibiting his family from going out.
At the same time, he had to write a new resignation letter and send it to the palace.
After these dozens of people cursed for more than an hour, they moved their positions and came to the gate of the third auxiliary Wang Xijue's residence.
They all shouted in unison that Wang Xijue had framed his fellow villagers, betrayed his loyalty, flattered the emperor, and ruined the country by his body position.
Wang Xijue, who was also still at home, looked confused. Didn't he already pass the test and wait to return to the cabinet? Where did this person come from to block the door and scold him?
At the same time, he had to write a new resignation letter and send it to the palace.
More than an hour later, these people moved their positions again and arrived in front of the residence of Chief Fu Shen Shixing.
Chief Minister Shen is still working in the cabinet, so he is definitely not at home.
But these scholars still blocked the door, accusing Shen Shoufu of sitting back and watching Zhongliang be punished, and being indifferent to the fact that the number one scholar became a disciple, which was really cowardly and derelict in his duties.
When Shen Shoufu in the cabinet heard the news, he felt very uncomfortable.
During this period, I have been watching other people's jokes, but unexpectedly when the situation was about to calm down, someone suddenly came to scold me today.
The next day, this group of scholars came again and cursed everyone in Wang Sige's hometown, Wang Suge's hometown, and Shen Shoufu's family.
The key point is that according to the rules of scholars, the bureaucratic behavior of the cabinet elders is indeed unreasonable, and they cannot retaliate at all. If they are scolded behind a closed door, they can only do it.
As for seeking revenge in private, that is a matter for the future.
There is a lot of discussion about this in the official circles of the capital, and there are indeed a lot of strange things happening this year.
Seeing that the stable and peaceful situation could no longer be maintained, Shen Shoufu quickly wrote a secret memorandum to the emperor!
We can't even let him, the chief minister, be scolded and resign, then there will really be no one in the cabinet to work on!
Your Majesty the Emperor, you don’t want to go through hundreds of memorials in detail every day throughout the year, do you?
Emperor Wanli ordered the Jinyi Guards to investigate, and the Fusi Police School in Beizhen was dispatched.
The next day, this group of scholars came to scold them, and the official school held down more than a dozen of them on the spot.
After interrogation, these down-and-out scholars happily confessed.
It is said that someone in the Imperial College offered a very high price of one tael of silver per day and hired down-and-out scholars to gather in crowds outside the old gate of the pavilion to curse and help Lin Tailai vent his anger.
People from Suzhou are given priority. When they return to their hometown, they can get preferential treatment from the Lin Group. If people from other places want to make money, they will not be stopped.
After further investigation, it was found that the person who handed out the money was a servant of the Lin family.
After the news spread, the official circles in the capital were collectively confused. Was such a feeble-minded action really organized by big moneymaker Lin Tailai?
It would have been understandable half a month ago to organize such an action, which was tantamount to putting pressure on the imperial court.
But the current situation has obviously changed. Peace, stability, and development are the mainstream today.
So everyone doesn’t know how to describe this kind of behavior of organizing scholars to block the door and curse, simply because they are afraid that the world will not be chaotic!
And it looks very childish, very vulgar, very ridiculous, biting like a mad dog.
It is completely inconsistent with Lin Jiuyuan's consistent level of struggle and is incomprehensible.
Could it be that when horses stumble and people stumble, there were times when Lin Tailai performed abnormally?
Or is this the venting of incompetent rage?
Many people who advocate peace, stability, and development can no longer stand Lin Tailai!
Peace-loving people appealed that Lin Tailai was no longer suitable to stay in the capital, especially in Xizhimen, a city full of loyalists!
The existence of Lin Tailai is the biggest obstacle to the realization of peace talks among the officials in the capital!
In response to this call of public opinion, the Ministry of Rites, which had gathered a lot of people, finally came up with its trump card!
Every spring, it is the time to hold a tribute and reward ceremony to the northern captives.
Because of the special nature of the Northern Lu, the imperial court has not allowed the Northern Lu envoys to enter the border wall, so the location of the tribute ceremony is set outside the border wall, and it will be the same this year.
??????????.??????
However, Zhong Jinhatun, the former Queen Mother and current Queen of Beilu, named Lin Tailai to attend this year's tribute ceremony.
This request is a bit disgraceful and contrary to principle. Folks say that I am a great Ming Dynasty man who has three faults - no marriage, no tribute, and no cession of territory.
The first rule is that if you don’t get married, how can you engage in diplomacy with male lust?
Therefore, the cabinet and the Ministry of Rites never responded to Zhongjin Hatun's request.
But now, I just agreed!
Lin Tailai, who only knows how to destroy peace, get out of the capital and die for his country outside the border wall!
When the memorial reached the cabinet, Shen Shoufu sighed and voted to agree.
People sitting in his position must be rational and not be emotional.
Lin Tailai is just messing around like this, going against the theme of peaceful development and annoying everyone. How can I keep you?
After returning home, Shen Shoufu said to the good boy: "Go and explain to Lin Jiuyuan and let him go out for shelter. After the gust of wind passes, let him come back."
Shen Yongmao replied: "There's no need to explain. Lin Jiuyuan said there's no need to care, which means I don't expect you to do anything.
So no matter what you do, father, he won’t care. Anyway, you will definitely be the loser in the end.”
After Shen Shoufu was stunned for a moment, he couldn't help complaining: "You are not blind faith, but superstitious."
Shen Yongmao said: "That's because, father, you have too little direct contact with Lin Jiuyuan."
The next day, an order broke the tranquility of Xizhimen.
Lin Tailai, a prison guard, was ordered to go outside Desheng Gate two days later, escort the imperial envoys to the outside of the border wall of Xuanfu Town, and prepare his own horses.
Lin Tailai didn't know what he was feeling, and he was used to swearing. "Zong Sang! You will do whatever it takes to get me away!"
Mr. Pang didn't know how he felt. If Mr. Lin left, what would he do in the future? Return to a normal life?
"When I come back, I will arrange for you to go to Chongwenmen!" Lin Tailai promised, "Stand guard for the last time during this period. I will leave a few servants to protect you. Don't get me wrong, this is not surveillance!"
Pang Ba always wanted to ask, can you come back?
Under the nervous attention of countless people, Lin Tailai did not resist stubbornly and made a fuss in the capital. He simply packed his bags and was ready to set off.
Moreover, it is easier to go out this time. You don’t need to bring more clothes. Anyway, your identity as a criminal is here, so you only need to wear soldier clothes.
Originally, Lin Tailai just wanted to cause trouble to delay time and provoke others to target him.
I guess the opportunity I've been waiting for is coming soon. In April, my fate is up to me!
As a result, in order to get rid of him, the imperial court actually sent him to get married outside the border wall.
This is simply unreasonable, and I can only have a hard time.
At that time, everyone in the court was crying and begging me, Lin Tailai, to come back!
The departure day came in a blink of an eye, and Lin Tailai was finally able to leave Xizhimen, turned around and arrived outside Deshengmen.
But I saw that the envoy's carriage had stopped here early, waiting for the entourage to arrive before setting off.
Lin Tailai, a criminal wearing a fat red coat and carrying a spear, lazily walked over and shouted: "Who is the envoy?"
Then an official jumped out of the carriage. He was an acquaintance of Lin Tailai. Li Tingji was the editor of the Hanlin Academy and ranked second in the eleventh year of Wanli.
Traveling as envoys is also part of the Hanlin's work, so it was not surprising at all to see Lin Tailai, a former colleague of the Hanlin Academy.
"So it's you." Lin Tailai said hello and threw the baggage on his back into the envoy's carriage. "I'll put it on your car first."
Li Tingji didn't mind at all and said with a smile: "I am able to serve as an envoy this time. I have gained a lot of achievements in vain. I have to thank you very much!"
"Why are you thanking me?" Lin Tailai said in confusion.
Li Tingji explained: “The envoys sent to the Northern Lu tribute ceremony every year are usually the border governors.
This year, it is said that an envoy from the capital was sent specifically to send you outside the border wall, so that you can follow as a guard."
Lin Tailai: ""
Some people in the imperial court are really deliberately planning to target themselves in order to be "reasonable"!
Then Li Tingji added: "Prime Minister Shen told me that you and I should look after each other on the road and not see anyone outside."
This means that I was sent by Shen Shoufu to gild my qualifications, and you and I are our own people from Shen Shoufu's side.
Lin Tailai said angrily: "I'm not familiar with Shen Xiang!"
Li Tingji didn't take it seriously and smiled in a good mood.
Lin Tailai patted his forehead and shouted, "I almost forgot something!"
Then he turned around and strode to the outside of the Deshengmen Urn City Gate. He picked up his pen and wrote a poem beside the gate.
"I am the King of Huai, an old chicken and dog,
Don’t follow the immortals to the human world!
All a floating life owes is death,
There is no way to return to the earthly world!"
After finishing writing, Lin Tailai admired himself again. Isn't he the Nine-Yuan True Immortal who has been banished to the human world?
This poem feels very appropriate for the occasion, and it will become even more appropriate when I return!
However, I don’t know how long the handwriting can last in its natural state despite being exposed to wind and sun.
Thinking of this, Lin Tailai shouted to the doorkeeper of Deshengmen: "When I come back, if this handwriting disappears, I will make you loyal too!"
