Chapter seven hundred and twentieth: decisive battle two parts
A counterattack?
After this blow, I am afraid that the peaceful situation between Jin Yiwei and the cabinet will be completely over. Li Dongdong sighed in his heart, I am afraid that this time Yang Jian's memorial is just the beginning. After the day after tomorrow, both parties will
There will be no more affection left.
In fact, what can we say now? Once Jin Yiwei has shaken his position in the cabinet, or the cabinet has hindered Jin Yiwei from further seizing power, the two sides will actually be on the same level.
In this case, it is actually just a matter of time whether the skin is torn or not.
"The student understands what you mean. I will arrange my affairs in the department first and then go home."
After Li Dongdong said this, he bowed deeply to Liu Chengfeng, and then went out of the check-in room. In the evening, he returned to Li Mansion in a carriage. He had stayed here for many years. Li Dongdong was very familiar with this place, but now he looked at this place.
The mansion is actually a bit strange.
He stepped into the gatehouse. When the gatekeeper saw the second master coming back, he immediately came to greet him happily. While greeting him, someone quickly entered the inner house to inform him.
Immediately afterwards, the sister-in-law in the inner house invited Li Dongdong to come in to talk. Li Dongyang's wife, Mrs. Zhu, was also from a prominent family. However, during the many years that Li Dongdong stayed here, Mrs. Zhu treated him well and treated him with extreme concern. Because Li Dongdong was older than his brother.
Nearly twenty years apart, Mrs. Zhu is nominally his brother-in-law, or more precisely, they have almost the same relationship as mother and son. Li Dongdong went into the inner house with complicated emotions to see Mr. Zhu and pay his respects to Mr. Zhu. Mr. Zhu said to the outside world
I don’t know anything about him, I just know that this younger brother is now regarded as a distinguished person and has been granted the title of earl. Although it is nothing compared to the master, not to mention that the cultural relics are in different ways. For a family like the Li family, a scholar
It is not a very honorable thing for a disciple to become a martial artist. But Zhu was very happy and very proud of Li Dongdong. He asked Li Dongdong to sit down. While drinking tea, he said with a smile: "Dongdong has grown up. Compared with
You used to be taciturn a lot, but your temper is calmer than before. You are now in Beizhen Fusi, working in the Experience Department. I know that place. It is said that it is a good place and a place where you can make a career. Hey, you
Now I come to the house less and less, and I always wonder if you have endured hardships outside, but now I see that you are doing well, so I feel relieved."
Li Dongdong said with shame: "It's my fault for making my sister-in-law worry."
Zhu said: "Men, any man who is not enthusiastic about fame cannot talk about right or wrong. I am just complaining casually. You don't need to take it to heart."
After chatting with Mr. Zhu for a few words, Li Dongdong felt on pins and needles. After waiting for half an hour, a girl came and said: "Madam, the second master, the master is back. I heard that the second master is back, please come to the study."
go."
Zhu said: "Go ahead. Maybe your brother has something to say to you. Yes, I'll ask the kitchen to cook more dishes later. I haven't been home for a long time, so I'll ask someone to cook for you."
My favorite food is sweet-scented osmanthus fish.”
Li Dongdong stood up quickly, bowed to Mr. Zhu, and left.
Returning to the Li Mansion, Li Dongdong looked uneasy. Then he arrived at the study. Li Dongyang sat and read with a heavy look on his face. When he raised his eyes and saw Li Dongdong coming in, he pressed his hands and said, "Sit down and talk."
Li Dongdong leaned forward and sat down, saying: "Eldest brother's health is a little worse than before. The most important thing is to take good care of your body. No matter how many things the court has, it is not something that eldest brother can do alone."
Li Dongyang raised his eyes and glanced at Li Dongdong, and said: "The same goes for you. In fact, I expected you to come back in the next couple of days. Hey, it's good to be back. We brothers haven't talked together for a long time."
"Yes." Li Dongdong sighed and said, "It's been a long time since I've been like this."
Li Dongyang threw the book he was flipping through on the desk and said: "You used to study in the mansion, and you studied hard for decades, but you thought that I couldn't have a future as a brother, and I felt uncomfortable in my heart.
It’s very sad that as an elder brother, I actually hindered my brother’s future.”
Li Dongdong listened silently, knowing that Li Dongyang had something to say.
Li Dongyang continued: "Later I recommended you to Liu Chengfeng's side. I was not wrong about Liu Chengfeng. He is favored by the saints and is very talented. He is not an ordinary person. At that time, I was thinking, you
If you follow him, you will get ahead sooner or later." Li Dongyang looked at Li Dongdong and smiled, stroking his beard and said: "Lucky me, I didn't misjudge the person. Now you really have a future. It's great to have a future. How can a man be dependent on others?
, how can we be inactive?"
"If you follow Liu Chengfeng from now on, your future will be high. So from now on, you can follow Liu Chengfeng with peace of mind. If he becomes king, you will be able to make meritorious deeds and be granted a title. A scholar will be in power and a warrior will be granted a title. This is
According to the rules of the Ming Dynasty, if you now use literature to enter military affairs, although you have wronged yourself, you may not be unable to gain a good future."
"Brother..." Li Dongdong's voice was choked, and he interrupted Li Dongyang: "It's just..."
But Li Dongyang interrupted him again and said seriously: "Just what? Just because you are afraid that Liu Chengfeng will have a dispute with the cabinet, so you are in a dilemma? Are you afraid that sooner or later, your big brother will turn against you? You are wrong
!" Li Dongyang said sternly: "After closing the door, you and I are a family, but when we go outside, we must understand the principle of each being his own master. I know you are in a dilemma, but I tell you, I am in a dilemma too, but I think Zuo Si
You think about it, but you also know that my brother can only stand with the cabinet and has no concern for your brother. Since I can’t care about you, why do you need to care about me? Everyone can use whatever tricks they have.
What scruples are there? If the cabinet succeeds, you will be a member of the thief party and will never get ahead in your life. But if Liu Chengfeng succeeds, you will be a hero and you are beyond words. I am not like this, so don’t do it now
Just cry and learn from your daughter's behavior. No matter who wins or loses this time, at least someone in our Li family will always be the winner. This is not a bad thing."
Li Dongdong bit his lip and said, "It's just..."
Li Dongyang smiled slightly and said: "It doesn't have to be just that, things in the world are like this. You are my clan brother, but outside, you are a member of Jinyiwei, and I am a cabinet minister. Jinyiwei is getting bigger and bigger, and I am a member of the cabinet.
The minister has to take care of it, and he has to suppress it. I suppressed you, why don't you rebound? Well, you must be hungry after being back for so long. Let's go have a meal together. When we get to your sister-in-law later, don't say anything.
, how can a woman understand what a man does outside, so as to prevent her from thinking wildly."
Li Dongyang immediately stood up, walked to Li Dongdong's side, patted Li Dongdong's shoulder gently with his old hand, then sighed and walked out step by step.
Li Dongdong wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes and stood up. He looked at the back figure left by his brother. The back figure was slightly trembling, but it seemed to be full of power, with a kind of sacred and inviolable majesty. Li Dongdong could not bear it in his heart.
I couldn't help but say to myself: "Brother, you are my role model. One day, Dongdong will be like you."
The two of them went to the back house to eat one after another. In front of Mrs. Zhu, naturally no one showed any thoughts. The family had a meal happily. That night, a pair of brothers enjoyed the cool in the pavilion while sipping tea.
While talking and laughing, they were all talking about knowledge. We talked and laughed before going to bed at the second watch.
Early the next morning, Li Dongdong, who was in high spirits, returned to the check-in side. Liu Chengfeng was surprisingly not late and came earlier than Li Dongdong. When he saw Li Dongdong, he did not ask what happened last night, but seriously
He said: "Is the interrogation of the concubine Jiang Bing almost done? Has the confession been signed and stamped?"
Li Dongdong said: "Everything has been sorted out. He has signed and stamped all the places that should be signed and stamped. The Metropolitan Procuratorate is still urging us to hand over Li Dongdong so that the Metropolitan Procuratorate can judge. Sir, since everything that should be tried has been
After trial, should we send the person to the Metropolitan Procuratorate?"
Liu Chengfeng pondered for a moment and said, "Send it away. It's time to convict now. Since the imperial edict states that the Procuratorate is the presiding judge, there is no need for the Jin Yiwei to usurp the decision."
Li Dongdong nodded, but he was holding back his panic. Why didn't Mr. Liu ask about his return home last night? If Liu Chengfeng had asked, Li Dongdong would have thought it was natural. But the more he didn't ask, the more uncomfortable Li Dongdong would be.
Zi Zi. He couldn't help but said: "Sir..."
Liu Chengfeng, who was sitting behind the desk, raised his head in astonishment and couldn't help but said: "What? Mr. Li hasn't gone to give the instructions yet. I will discuss the court affairs with you later."
Li Dongdong smiled bitterly and said: "Sir, the student and the clan brother had already spoken last night."
"Hmm!" Liu Chengfeng nodded and said, "Brothers, I haven't seen each other for so long, I guess I have a lot to say."
He didn't ask what the conversation between Li Dongdong and Li Dongyang was, but just responded casually. This made Li Dongdong feel a little weird, and he couldn't help but say: "My clan brother and I."
Liu Chengfeng waved his hand: "What your brothers say has nothing to do with me, and I don't want to inquire about your family affairs. Do you understand, Mr. Li? I have never had any doubts about Mr. Li, and you don't have to have anything either."
Don't worry, there will be a court meeting tomorrow, and we must make a last-ditch effort to give these people a fatal blow in the court, so you and I will have a lot to do today, Mr. Li, let's get to work first."
Liu Chengfeng's words made Li Dongdong both moved and a little embarrassed. Would anyone else really believe in him like this? Does this guy have no scheming, or is he not wary of himself at all?
