When Cai Xianqing returned to the Ministry of War, he had already received the emperor's edict, officially appointing Dong Sheng as a member of the Ministry of War, Wan Yuzhi as the head of the Ministry of War, and Gu Zheng as the head of the Ministry of Punishments. Almost all the officials in the ministry were replaced by Ye Dang's confidants.
This makes them move more freely.
Faced with a great situation, how could these enterprising newcomers be willing to remain silent? They all gave Cai Xianqing advice and advised him to restart the New Deal. Although Cai Xianqing was also arrogant, he was good at planning after all, thinking about the pros and cons of this matter.
Don't make a decision lightly, so you explain all the pros and cons and write a letter to Ye Yongjia.
Ye Yongjia also felt that everyone had little experience and it was difficult to handle the overall situation. However, after thinking about it, he had to worry about the rise of Party Chen, and gradually began to lean towards the other side - preparing to agree to the requests of the party members. So he picked up his pen and wrote in
The end of the letter reads:
'Cai Laoke wrote a petition based on the arguments of Dong Sheng and others, but he could only listen to half of it. Since the fall of the Liu Party, the imperial court has been very taboo about the New Deal.
Let's see how the government reacts to the matter. Remember, don't make the matter a big deal. It's not the time for party struggle.'
After Cai Xianqing read his reply, without thinking, he immediately and all his confidants wrote a memorial to recapture Xuanhua.
"Oh, stop!"
A clerk from the Ministry of War just walked through the guest room with his head down. When he was about to go out, he was suddenly stopped by someone. He was so frightened that he quickly turned around and saw Dong Sheng and Wan Yu, eating tea at the square table.
"What are you going to do?" Dong Sheng got off the chair, dusted his sleeves and walked over, his eyes alert and serious.
The clerk kept laughing and said, "The ban is here. I'll report it to Mr. Cai."
Dong Sheng rolled his eyes and immediately grabbed his arm: "If there is any situation, you should talk to me first."
The clerk knew how powerful these newcomers were, so how could he dare to offend them? He hurriedly replied: "Cun Sijin is coming to discuss with our Ministry of War the matter of regaining Xuanhua, so...that's the situation."
After hearing this, Dong Sheng put down his hand hesitantly.
"Can the villain leave?" he asked timidly.
"Wait here first." After saying that, he pressed the bookcase onto the chair and walked to Wan Yuzhi in a deep voice.
Wan Yuzhi had one foot on the chair, shaking the bamboo fan in his left hand, and holding a tea bowl in his right hand to sip. Suddenly he glanced at Dong Sheng's brows and became curious: "The emperor's nephew is here, why are you so worried?"
Dong Sheng looked at his careless look and was about to sigh angrily when something suddenly occurred to his mind. An idea struck him and he bowed to him with a smile: "Brother Wan, I have a cruel request.
.Although the Chief Inspector is a clan relative, unfortunately he is not prudent.
, has always been attached to the Chen Party, and is not the same person as Mr. Ye. This visit will definitely mess up the situation that I will definitely succeed in. If it embarrasses Mr. Cai and Mr. Ye, how can you and I get along with each other? Not as good as you
Go out and talk him out, show off your talents, and set an example for us juniors!"
"This..." Wan Yuzhi touched his chin, hesitating when speaking, and even felt like he was shrinking.
Dong Sheng said in his ear again: "Brother, you said so many words at the banquet in the Zhou Mansion, and you exposed all the dirty things of the Forbidden Army. Everyone admires your courage to speak out. Now the real sect in the Forbidden Camp
When people come, you have to stand up and say something to them."
"Nonsense!" Wan Yuzhi glared angrily, "Am I still afraid of him?"
Dong Sheng looked at him firmly again: "Then ask Brother Wan, do you dare?"
"Of course you dare!" Wan Yuzhi rolled up his sleeves, slapped his fan on the table, jumped off the chair, and walked out the door in a few strides.
Cunzhao was walking under the sun when he saw Wan Yuzhi approaching menacingly. He was startled and saluted slowly: "What...can you do?"
Wan Yuzhi deliberately raised his voice and said: "Cun Si Jin, Mr. Cai is not in the Yamen, please come back first."
After hearing this, Cun Zhao was astonished and at a loss, with a slightly sullen look on his face: "If Mr. Cai is not here at this time, I will just wait until he comes. Besides, I don't recognize you, the general."
Wan Yuzhi sneered and said: "I am just a minor official. I don't need to know my name, but I also know the rules of the official. If you have official business, you should stay at the court meeting and tell the emperor, the prince
You should understand through your ears instead of discussing it with ministers privately, lest others criticize you and end up in the wrong situation."
Cun Zhao was so angry that his face turned red, and he couldn't hold back a word for a long time. He immediately rolled up his sleeves and turned around to leave. Wan Yuzhi chuckled a few times and returned to the Yamen.
"These new young people are really rebellious. I am a member of the royal family. I have never suffered such humiliation..." Cun Zhao muttered to himself as he walked along the wall, and became increasingly angry as he thought about it.
, simply stopped,
He took off his hat and said, "No, I can't go back without success. Once I talk about this, I will be scolded by the old uncle. It's better to go to the Ministry of Punishment to try my luck!" After thinking about it, he didn't care about it and changed his mind.
Head, walked straight towards the Ministry of Punishment.
Since the Ministry of Punishment has been idle recently, most of the officials are away. Ye Yongjia is temporarily staying at home; Ming Huiguang is in Zhongshu Province; Cui Yi is keeping his filial piety and does not go out; only the head Gu Zheng and two or three colleagues are here to tidy up the table
It's just a document.
Suddenly they heard that Cun Sijun was coming, everyone was in panic. They hurriedly prepared tea and wiped the table. After everything was roughly prepared, Cun Zhao was invited to come in, and everyone bowed respectfully.
"I don't know what the Lord Si Jin has to do to come to our department. I'm scared!" Gu Zheng, sweating profusely, bowed and said.
Cun Zhao saw that Gu Zheng was still in awe in his words, so he nodded and thought: "This person can be used." He pretended to be angry and asked, "You and Wan Yuzhi, Dong Sheng
But Jinshi in the same year? I didn’t expect you people to be so ignorant of the rules!”
Gu Zheng was startled and did not dare to raise his head: "I have no idea what they did."
Cun Zhao knocked on the table: "It's unreasonable for Wan Yuzhi to insult me with words! Is this how Ye Yongjia usually manages his subordinates? You also listen to him, Ye Yongjia. If you still want to serve the emperor, go and persuade him to serve me."
Apologize! Otherwise, I will report to the emperor and have you and others expelled!"
"Master Si Jin," Gu Zheng trembled all over, "Wan Yuzhi should apologize to you, but he will never do anything to do with Master Ye."
"Why doesn't it matter?" Cun Zhao still frowned and asked, but after saying that, he suddenly sneered, "Yes, of course you and his officials are protecting each other, and we are one. We will both prosper and suffer!"
Gu Zheng gritted his teeth and said secretly: "That's bad! That Wan Yuzhi usually can't keep his mouth shut, but now he said something nonsense and made his clan members angry! I think he's hurt Mr. Ye."
