After Zeng Shicai learned about Li Changan's performance in the court, he was also shocked and opened his mouth wide.
It’s okay not to accept it, sir, you are indeed fierce.
How dare you insult civil and military officials in public.
However, the Empress not only did not blame him, but she even tried to persuade him.
If there wasn't something fishy about this matter, no one would believe it.
"Dad, to tell you the truth, it seems that Uncle Zhongyong is standing opposite the imperial court officials now, but in fact, Uncle Zhongyong has never looked directly at the imperial court from the beginning."
Zeng Shicai analyzed Zeng Wanlian,
"Uncle Zhongyong looks gentle on the outside, but he is very aloof on the inside."
"In other words, he has extremely strong confidence in himself."
"When he attaches great importance to something, he will always have the decision-making power firmly in his hands."
"The more important it is, the more important it is. When we were on the southern tour to suppress Fusi, we were really arbitrary, especially the construction of the dam. Everyone was opposed to it, but Uncle Zhongyong still pushed it forward."
Zeng Shicai said,
"And this time, the supply and marketing department is the second thing he attaches great importance to."
"So, he will not rely on the full cooperation of all the government ministries to do this well."
"But at the beginning, there was no intention to rely on external help."
"So, unless someone goes crazy and wants to take action against him, just obstructing and interfering in the court may not have much effect."
Zeng Wanlian sighed softly, "The situation in the world is changing too fast now."
"The Jin Dynasty was founded more than 800 years ago, and the requirements for the stability of luck have never been as high as today."
"The previous rules of conduct in the court have gradually lost their effectiveness."
"What Li Changan wants to do now is nothing less than breaking the rules that the imperial court has been operating for eight hundred years."
"Do you think it will work?"
Zeng Shicai thought to himself that what his father said really hit the point.
On the surface it looks like it will cut off many people's financial resources, but in reality it is a confrontation between old and new forces.
This is destined to be a life and death battle.
On one side are the ministers who stick to the old rules, while on the other side there is only Uncle Zhongyong.
Although there are some court officials who are not involved in the interests of the trading houses, these people are all human beings.
At this time, it is not safe for anyone to take the lead.
Waiting is the best way.
Zeng Shicai pondered for a moment and then asked, "Dad, since you said it, the situation has still changed."
"That means that the old will eventually pass away and the new will come."
"Why don't we choose the right direction from the beginning?"
Zeng Wanlian patted Zeng Shicai on the shoulder, "When a trend appears, it will definitely not be smooth sailing. It is normal to have several twists and turns."
"And during these twists and turns, how many people will be buried?"
"The safest thing is to just sit back and watch."
But Zeng Shicai was shaking his head, "Father, the general trend is obvious. Uncle Zhongyong is indispensable to the Jin Dynasty."
"The crisis in February and March was so serious that the Jin Dynasty was almost on the verge of collapse."
"Amid internal and external troubles, the Queen will never allow the slightest danger to appear again."
"Under this premise, the safest thing is to tie Uncle Zhongyong firmly to the chariot of Jin Dynasty."
"The luck of the three southern provinces is stable and known to the whole world."
"Any normal person knows that under such circumstances, Uncle Zhongyong is the best candidate to stabilize the fate of the Jin Dynasty."
"My child still believes in Uncle Zhongyong... Tomorrow's supply and marketing department, my child will continue to go there."
Zeng Wanlian was silent for a long time, then sighed softly, "That's it..."
…
The next day, more than half of the people in the supply and marketing department's yamen were reduced.
Feng Buyi and the other seven people are still there, but the team of 140 people they recruited at the beginning now only has 47 people left.
The supply and marketing department suddenly became much deserted.
Xue Shiqing's face was ashen, these people were recruited with the twenty official quotas.
Now there are so many fewer people all of a sudden, it's almost embarrassing for them.
"Those people are short-sighted and are not worthy of working with us." Ran Boping patted Xue Shiqing's arm, and then said to the remaining people,
"Today we will continue to complete yesterday's mission. Although there are fewer people, those who remain are all heroes."
"Since you are willing to stay, it means you have given it careful consideration."
"We follow Uncle Zhongyong to do this great thing, and we must not let down our great wish."
Anyone who can work in the supply and marketing department is not a fool.
After hearing the news last night, those who still insist on staying here have already determined that Zhongyong Bo will win in this conflict.
So there was nothing to say. Everyone quickly divided into several groups and continued to sort out the files distributed by Zhongyong Bo.
…
And at this time,
Not long after Li Changan left home, he was stopped by Zhao Xiangong, "What on earth do you think?"
How come Li Changan doesn’t know what Zhao Xiangong is talking about? But he is still pretending to be stupid,
"Duke Zhao Xian is talking about the disciples causing trouble in the court? This matter is really not about the disciples being arrogant and domineering, but about those bullies bullying others too much."
"Disciple still has to go to the Yamen of the Supply and Marketing Department. How about we discuss it another day?"
Zhao Hongshan directly gave Li Changan a blow and asked, "Are you still looking down on me?"
"You kid obviously know what I'm talking about."
Although the two of them were walking on the road, the people around them seemed not to have seen them at all.
This is because Zhao Hongshan directly concealed their figures.
Li Changan spread his hands helplessly,
"Mr. Zhao Xian, I'm just confused. After all, Dugu Qing is also the chess master of the Imperial College and has a distinguished position. How could he agree to such a ridiculous thing?"
"Don't you just let her choose the men in the world? Why do you have to mess with the muddy water of disciples?"
"I bet that as long as he wants, there are many men who are willing to 'keep themselves safe' for her."
Zhao Hongshan glared at Li Changan and said, "Nonsense."
"How can an ordinary person be worthy of Dugu Qing?"
"That's the Queen's sister, the Imperial Supervisor. Who in the world can be worthy of her? It's just you."
"This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, aren't you excited?"
"If this marriage is successful, both White Deer Academy and the Imperial College will be your backing. Even if the world becomes chaotic again, you will have no worries and can successfully cultivate to the third level."
"At that time, you and she were both third-grade students, and a double third-grade student. This already has the foundation for establishing a great Confucian family."
Zhao Hongshan almost burst into tears, wishing he could tell all the benefits.
"Do you know what a noble family is? It means that strong men are born in every generation, ensuring that the family will not be cut off for thousands of years, and it will be passed down for at least ten generations before it can be called a noble family."
"The great Confucian family, the Wenzheng family, the common people family, although the Great Confucian family is only the weakest family, its heritage is amazing."
"There is a saying that all dynasties in the world will perish, but aristocratic families will survive."
"You and Dugu Qing are both at least third-grade Confucian scholars. Your future achievements will be immeasurable. Your descendants will also have extraordinary qualifications."
"As long as there are no accidents along the way, the Confucian family is a sure thing..."
Li Changan quickly clasped his fists and saluted Zhao Hongshan, "I would like to thank Mr. Xian for thinking about me, but I really have no intention of getting married to Dugu Qing."
"With this skill, disciples might as well put more thought into how to welcome Annan Zhi into the door as soon as possible."
"My disciple's heart is so big that it can't accommodate other people."
Zhao Hongshan sighed, "You're confused, how can a man living in heaven and earth be bound by the love of his children?"
He knows a lot about Li Changan, so why can't he understand what he means?
"If you think about it again, this is what Dugu Qing agreed to because of the Queen's efforts. It concerns the White Deer Academy, the Imperial College, and yourself. Don't be emotional!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhao Hongshan quietly disappeared.
Li Changan shook his head helplessly, this matter was a bit difficult to handle.
Compared with this matter, it seems that the supply and marketing department's big stall is not that difficult.
