Everyone looked at the guy who was talking arrogantly, and were surprised to find that he was actually a member of the Imperial Guard.
Make knitting! How can a guy from the seventh grade go to court? Is this a court meeting or a vegetable market?
Although it is said that since Comrade Jiajing moved to Xiyuan, the court meetings have become very informal. He often hides in Jinshen Jingshe to listen, and Yan Song presides over them.
The personnel composition is also relatively complex, and sometimes a few strong people will be temporarily recruited to discuss or hold accountable specific matters.
But even so, this is still a court meeting! The status of those young men who were temporarily arrested is not lower than that of fourth-grade officials!
Jiajing was also startled, his slightly closed eyes opened, and then he looked at Lu Bing.
No need to ask, if a seventh-grade experienced person can come in, he must have followed him, otherwise he would have been kicked out long ago.
Lu Bing quickly bowed and said: "Long live this, this is Shen Lian who has just joined the Jinyi Guards. I was taking him to familiarize himself with the palace restrictions, and he happened to be summoned to attend the meeting. Because I didn't know what happened, I brought him in with him."
Jiajing's eyes narrowed again, indicating that he was not prepared to pursue the matter. Ever since he moved into Xiyuan, Lu Bing has been in charge of the security of the guards. This Shen Lian must have been favored by Lu Bing. Seeing the people in this court meeting Many, I don't know what happened, they were brought in to maintain order.
In other words, if Jiajing gets angry, who will prepare the court staff? After all, Xiyuan is not as convenient as the palace, so there must be someone around to help.
Just because Jiajing didn't pursue the case, it didn't mean that Yan Song would give up. His godson was stabbed by a minor official. If word spread, where would Zhao Wenhua's face be?
Yan Song snorted heavily, and Zhao Wenhua immediately cheered up and prepared to charge Shen Lian with a crime, such as being disrespectful in front of the emperor, contradicting the superior, despising the emperor, etc.
Yan Song and his henchmen were very skilled at this skill, and even Xia Yan was knocked down by them, let alone the little Shen Lian.
Even if he can't be found guilty on the spot, it will plant a thorn in Jiajing's heart. If he finds an opportunity to provoke him in the future, Shen Lian will be finished.
Zhao Wenhua was about to speak, but someone spoke before him.
"Shen Lian, you are a mere petty official. Such important national affairs are not something you can arbitrarily discuss. Please step down."
Lu Bing glanced at the corner of his eyes and saw that it was Xia Bangxian, the Minister of Civil Affairs. He was a peaceful man and liked to recite poetry and compete with literati, and he had a good relationship with him.
At this time, he stood up and spoke, seemingly scolding, but actually helping Shen Lian out of trouble, obviously for Lu Bing's sake.
Shen Lian was not a fool, but he hesitated for a moment, bowed and saluted: "If the adults don't say anything, the little ones have to say it. You can't just say it, right?"
With these words, Yan Song finally couldn't stand anymore.
We have been arguing for a long time. No matter who is right or wrong, at least these people have spoken. If they don't speak, aren't they talking about themselves?
When he looked up, Jiajing's eyes were already fixed on Yan Song's face.
"Yan Aiqing is the chief minister of the cabinet and should have her own opinion on this matter."
Yan Song scolded Shen Lian in his heart, but remained calm on the surface.
"Long live, what you all said makes sense. What we are arguing about is nothing more than sending cavalry reinforcements. And cavalry reinforcements depend on the issue of food and fodder for the army and horses.
For this reason, I believe that this matter should be resolved first. If the food and grass can be collected within seven days, the cavalry can be used; if the food and grass cannot be collected within seven days, the cavalry should only hold on."
Yan Song's words were watertight. He seemed to have said everything, but in fact he said nothing, but no one could say anything wrong.
"In addition, Shen Lian is loyal to the country and his heart can be used. I think he has a plan for raising food and grass. We might as well let him be temporarily transferred to the household department to take charge of this matter and relieve the king of worries."
Zhao Wenhua, who was originally aggrieved, suddenly realized that my godfather is still my godfather. As expected, the hole was dug quickly and deeply!
The corners of Lu Bing's eyes raised slightly, but his expression was as usual. From the moment Shen Lian stood up, he knew there would be this result. This scene seemed familiar.
But Xiao Wannian saved his life, and he could use this as an excuse to negotiate with Yan Shifan.
Shen Lian had just joined the Jinyi Guards. Even if he valued him, he would never be able to say anything for him, otherwise he would look down on Yan Song.
He recalled the conversation he had with Yan Shifan back then. Although the two of them drank and chatted happily and seemed to have a romantic relationship, they could turn into a quarrel at any time.
Once they break up, they and Yan Dang will fight to the death. Therefore, this situation is something that both sides try their best to avoid.
"Your dog killed my dog. Brother Wenfu, if I don't show anything, my other dogs will not dare to go out. Who will catch rabbits for me?"
"How does Donglou plan to express it?"
"It's just a dog. Just kill it. There's no need to hurt your and my brother's feelings."
"If it is my dog that kills Brother Donglou's dog, I will leave it to you to kill without saying anything. But what if it is one of my men who kills your dog?"
"How virtuous and capable is a mere vice-chairman of a thousand households? In the eyes of Brother Wenfu, is he a human being? In the eyes of you and me, he is not just a human being."
"If he saved my life, does he qualify as a human being?"
"That's it...if what Brother Wenfu said is true, then I'm going to make things difficult for you. Brother Wenfu, isn't he just making up a story to trick me?"
"There are many people who know about it at this time. You can go and investigate in the east building."
"But even if you are a human being, if you want to kill my Yan family's dog, you have to look at the owner."
"He will resign tomorrow."
"There are too many people without official positions. If you have a rich family fortune and are free and easy, it will be more comfortable than being an official. Brother Wenfu, don't blame the younger brother. The younger brother also has difficulties. All the dogs are watching eagerly."
"He has lost everything and only has his house left. If you don't move him, I won't help him."
The two of them breathed a sigh of relief at the same time, drank the wine in the glass, laughed, and were as affectionate as a mother.
Jiajing glanced at Xu Jie, the bachelor of the Hanlin Academy and the second assistant to the cabinet, standing next to Yan Song, half a step behind.
"Xu Qing, what suggestions do you have?"
Xu Jie shook his head and said: "I think what the chief assistant said is true, and I second my opinion."
He always said these two sentences in the court, and everyone was used to it. Some people even nicknamed Xu Jie "Xu Fuyi". God knows how a guy who can only second his opinions could become the junior minister.
As usual, Jiajing did not express his position and returned to Jinshen Jingshe. When everyone found out, they followed Yan Song's wishes.
Yan Song took the blame for Jiajing, and everyone took the blame for Yan Song. The person who took the biggest blame at this time was naturally Shen Lian.
Shen Lian did not wait for Lu Bing and left directly.
Lu Bing naturally knew that he did not want to implicate himself, so he could only catch up with Pan Huang, smile and say a few words in a low voice.
Then he turned to look for Yan Song and left together, chatting for a few words. Yan Song also smiled and nodded, very kindly.
Pan Huang returned to the household department and immediately convened an emergency meeting with all personnel above the principal level to explain the court affairs first.
"Although the chief assistant asked Shen Lian to take charge of this matter, Shen Lian has no experience and is unlikely to succeed. This is a matter within our department, so everyone should brainstorm!"
Everyone looked at each other, this was simply an impossible task, not to mention Shen Lian, even the Ministry of Finance couldn't do it.
Yan Shoufu wants to take the opportunity to kill Shen Lian, just let him kill him, what else can we think of?
Zuo Shilang coughed and said, "Sir, it is impossible to raise food and fodder for a large army within seven days. There are many grain dealers in and around the capital. If it is urgent purchase, there will be no problem with people's food rations."
But it will take at least ten days to purchase food and fodder for the army and horses. The road from Shandong to Datong is long, and it will take more than twenty days to transport the food. By then, the Tatars will have already looted and ran away!"
Everyone said yes, and one doctor shook his head and sighed.
"If there is sorghum in the capital at this time, troops can be sent directly. There is an official road from the capital to Datong. The cavalry carries three days' rations with them. The grain trucks are divided into heavy and heavy. They distance themselves and then rush. They will surely catch up with the fighter plane when they reach Datong. It's a pity, it's a pity. .”
This doctor had worked in the Ministry of War for a period of time and was quite familiar with marching. His words convinced everyone and made them feel even more aggrieved.
Pan Huang sighed secretly, he didn't know these truths, but what's the use of truth? It can't be turned into food!
"Regardless of success or failure at this time, our household department must do our best! Since the chief assistant has appointed Shen Lian to temporarily transfer the household department to take charge of this matter, the household department must of course send personnel to assist with it to provide experienced hands!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone tried their best to shrink themselves inward, hoping to reduce their size as much as possible to avoid the attention of Lord Shangshu.
Pan Huang pointed at a huddled person in the crowd: "It's just you!"
