Shang Tan didn't disbelieve him, but he was a little depressed, and said sullenly: You said such a big thing, why didn't your grandfather show his mouth at all, what should I do now?
Now those families in Jiangnan are afraid that they will hate their grandfather to death.Lin Fangxu also felt something, I don't know what the attitude of the saint is, if the saint is really determined to investigate, then it is not as simple as hate, I am afraid that I will fight to the death when the time comes.Speaking of which, the old faction of Dong Ge is actually eager to eat people now, everyone is a circle, a class of people, what things can't be solved through private discussion?
You don't even say a word, just poke it out directly, why do you do things so unruly!
Zhao Songtao, the secretary of the Ministry of Etiquette, this person is the most particular about rules and etiquette, but he said angrily: The Lin family is really a bastard, and the recital of the political envoy must be sent to the cabinet first according to the rules, but he did such a transgressive thing!
Shang Zhongyan is too, this guy is hey!
Who's original intention to gain fame is not to glorify the ancestors, who will not use his power to fight for the interests of the family, the family and the country, the family and the country and the family will always be ranked before the country, isn't this a tacit thing in the entire scholar circle?
It's a pity that the reason why the unspoken rules are called unspoken rules is because he can't say it on the surface, so even if he hates Shang Zhongyan, Zhao Songtao is speechless for a while, and he doesn't know what language to use to abuse him.Wang Qingyi, the secretary of Dali Temple, saw that he was there for a long time, and he talked about something useless, so he couldn't help but say: Lord Zhao, the Lin family's children are just taking advantage of the position, Shang Zhongyan has such a good apprentice, and now the excerpt has also been handed over, you say that these are useless?
Zhao Songtao's grade is higher than him, and he has been a second-grade department for so many years, how can he listen to what he said, and immediately mocked with a cold face: I said that it is useless, then you can say something useful, heh, once some things are put on the table, it is a man-made knife, we are in the situation of fish and meat, what can we do now, it is just to see how the saint wants to go under the knife!
As soon as he finished speaking, the room was silent for a moment, Dong Kun stood behind Dong Ge Lao, a little panicked in his heart, but he heard his grandfather say lightly: What are you afraid of?
Now it's not as good as when the first emperor first ascended the throne, and he has finally recovered some of his vitality, who is really willing to completely overturn it again?
Don't worry, even if you really want to cut the flesh and bleed, you will definitely leave some for you in the end, so that you won't be wiped out.Zhao Songtao was not relieved after hearing this, but muttered with a white face: It is all the family business handed down from the ancestors, and it was not stolen or robbed, so why should it be given.Dong Ge's face changed, and he said with a sharp light in his eyes: What are you pretending to be stupid in front of the old man, the family business passed down from your ancestors?
Kindness?!
You go and ask the saint if you recognize the ancestor of your previous dynasty!
Oh, the old man has long advised you not to be too short-sighted, greedy and insufficient, and don't know how to restrain!
Wang Qingyi saw that Zhao Songtao was scolded and his old face turned red, so he had to play a round and said: The old man is angry, tomorrow the court will meet, and I and other Jiangnan officials will rely on the old man to support their heads, and we must take care of our health, but according to the old man's opinion, how should I deal with it tomorrow?
Dong Ge Lao calmed down at this time, his eyes were empty, and he sighed inexplicably: Over the years, the Jingshi Battalion has been trained quite effectively by the eldest brother of the Great Emperor, I am afraid that he is already not afraid of the slaves, so, everyone, show weakness first, and be ready to cut the flesh and let the blood, and the Holy Lord will not really leave no room.Wang Qingyi and Zhao Songtao walked out of the Dong Mansion, glanced at each other, and then left, Dong Ge Lao Xu has lived in the capital for a long time, and he takes it for granted, who would be so obedient to let someone cut his flesh and let him bleed?
Dong Ge was ready to cut his flesh and bleed, but his old opponent was unwilling to make that knife.Yang Yan of the imperial history book of the right capital is the champion of the first year of Hongwu, a real poor child, Kong Ge is always his teacher and benefactor, but at this time he blushed and asked his own teacher: The teacher once assisted the first emperor to drive the Mengnu in the north, and when he established the foundation of the Great Wei, he vowed to get rid of the national beetle and return the people to live and work in peace and contentment.Or has the teacher become like those people, enjoying today's glory and wealth, and has long forgotten the original vow?!
Even though Kong Ge Lao was so persecuted by him, he still didn't change his face and didn't respond to him, but Kong Jue couldn't stand it, and said with a calm face: Uncle Yang said carefully, grandfather has his own plans.Yang Yan didn't take it seriously, and said in disappointment: The teacher naturally has a plan, hasn't he had a tacit understanding with Dong Ge Lao Taiji over the years?
However, no matter what the teacher plans, the students are not going to let go this time, they will definitely fight once, even if they don't eradicate it, they will have to cut their flesh and bleed once!
Yang Yan seemed to think that he and his teacher had disagreed, and it was useless to say more, and after expressing his attitude, he left the Confucian Mansion alone, planning to go back and seriously think about what he would say in the court tomorrow.After he left, Tian Hongcai, the secretary of the military department who had not spoken, considered and said: My lord, Brother Yang has a straightforward personality, I am afraid that this time it will really break the boat, don't you need to stop it?
Kong Ge Lao sighed and said: Let him go, he has been aggrieved and ruthless all these years, presumably you are also like him, very disappointed in the old man, right?
Tian Hong seemed to be said to have hit the heart, and sneered: No, no, how dare you, the adults must have planned it a long time ago.Old Kong Ge naturally didn't believe his perfunctory words, and said with a wry smile: You should be disappointed, the old man really doesn't have the courage he used to have.In the past, there was only one person, and the ups and downs were just the same thing, but now it's different, there is a family behind him, not to mention, and a large group of colleagues like you, if the old man is desperate and finally falls, what will the people behind him do?
Tian Hong thought of his parents, wives and children living under his protection, and he was also related, and he felt a little powerless, but he heard Kong Ge Lao continue: The old man wanted to stay in the cabinet for another two years, and after arranging the affairs of the court, he would go back to his hometown to farm, heh, it's a pity that the saint didn't plan to let the old man go away like this?
The first time Kong Jue heard his grandfather say these helpless words, he only felt extremely sad, his eyes were moist, but he saw that his grandfather's face was solemn, and his momentum rose suddenly, and the tenacity and unyielding performance of his whole body were very similar to Uncle Yang who had just left.No!
It should be said that Uncle Yang's momentum is less than half that of his grandfather.I only heard Kong Ge say loudly: Since the saint is determined to use the old man's knife this time, what does it matter if the old man makes a sharp blade again when he is old!
Tian Hong was shocked by Kong Ge Lao's momentum, but he suddenly thought of Brother Yang who left, it was really a master and apprentice, and after sighing, he wondered: Then why didn't you tell Brother Yang just now, if you told him, it wouldn't be Kong Ge Lao relaxed, waved his hand and smiled: Don't tell him, it's good to go and explore the attitude of the saint first, always know what step the saint wants us to do, don't stick the knife too deep when the time comes, and break it yourself.As far as Kong Ge Lao's cunning posture is concerned, it is estimated that it will not be easily broken, but Li Ge Lao has already broken several beards at this time, and said to the Ministry of Industry with a worried brow: Looking at the attitude of the saint this time, I am afraid that I will not take it lightly, so I don't know which step to take?
Hey, it's going to be too peaceful again.One of the Ministry of Industry Shangshu and Li Ge Lao is from Sichuan, and the other is from Shanxi, and the miscellaneous taxes on the hidden fields in the south of the Yangtze River have nothing to do with them, but they are afraid that the saint will let them investigate.If you want to Guan Ge Lao, Li Ge Lao's worries are simply redundant, he is very relaxed, and he is in the mood to invite Hubu Shangshu to drink the Longjing he just got, watching the tea leaves swirling in the water, and sighing: West Lake Longjing, I'm afraid that this land in the south of the Yangtze River is not suitable for him to grow, Dong Ge Lao doesn't know if he can still sleep at this time?
Sun Kang, the head of the household, was not as confident as him, and said with some worry: Xia Guan thinks that the person who was sent to deal with this matter in the end can't sleep, right?
The power of those people in Jiangnan has long been unshakable, how can it be said that it can be rectified, and in the end, if you offend so many people, don't say it, if you can't cure it, the saint will definitely not be satisfied, aren't you worried about it at all?
Guan Ge Lao put down the cup and said with a smile: What am I worried about?
And it's not my turn, the Holy One has already made arrangements, so we don't have to be too active, let's act when the opportunity arises.Sun Kang was a little enlightened, and he didn't ask anymore, because he was already lucky compared to the two Shangshu of the Ministry of Officials and the Ministry of Punishment, at least someone would mention a few words, and the two of them were already ready to speak depending on the situation at that time, after all, they didn't have the courage to go to the prince in charge of the Ministry of Officials and the Ministry of Criminal Affairs to ask for something.When the civil officials discussed in tandem in the middle of the night, most of the military attaches who also got the news had already slept without caring about themselves, except for a few adults in the Wu'an Hou Mansion who were still gathered in the main hall.Wu Anhou was a little irritable and said: Hey, why didn't my father-in-law say it in advance, I can also help deliver it.The civil and military affairs are irrelevant, they can't do anything to me, Lin Xiaozi's grade is low, and his family background is not obvious, in case of retaliation, losing his official position is a trivial matter, if he loses his life, don't you want Xiaoyun to be widowed?
Jiang Shiyun said unhappily: Daddy, don't talk nonsense, it's just a handover, and there can't be anything to do with him later, you might as well worry about your grandfather!
Shang Daoyu was already very anxious at this time, he himself was born in Jiangnan, and he didn't know those people, but at this time he could only grit his teeth and say: This old and young are really not worry-free!
The old man who was far away in Hangzhou had slept contentedly because he had eaten an extra piece of red bean cake for supper, and the small one in the capital sent the relaxed Shang Tan to the door after figuring it out at this time, and said happily before parting: Brother Xiansi, let's just watch the excitement honestly and quietly tomorrow, and after two days, Xiu Mu will make an appointment with Brother Darong to drink together, and some of them are showing, we are people who have participated in the court meeting, hahaha Chapter 69 October 28, it is an unusual day for Lin Fangxu, this life plus the first time in his life to participate in the court meeting, Although it was only to observe Guan Zheng, it was also worth bragging.At the same time, this day is also Lin Fangxu's birthday, the year of the dancing elephant, but there is no longevity noodles made by his mother, and there is no birthday gift carefully prepared by his family for him, so he got up before dawn.Breakfast is a dumpling wrapped by the cook yesterday, although the taste is good, but it was cooked by Lin Fangyuan to a little broken skin, Lin Fangxu even ate a bowl of soup with skin, at this time I felt a little blocked, and was about to go out to work for the emperor.The sun in the sky has not yet shown its face, but a few rays of sunlight have rushed out of the darkness, opening the way for its owner and driving away the gloom that has stagnated in the world.Lin Fangxu rubbed his stomach and walked out of the courtyard gate, and it was not the fireworks of the dawn in the capital that greeted him, but Jiang Shiyun riding a white horse, and he had ignored him.Lin Fangxu's heart was not blocked, and his stomach was not blocked, so he happily greeted him, and said with concern: Why did you come over?
Aren't you going to Jingshi Camp today?
Jiang Shiyun turned over and dismounted, took a small package from the horse, handed it to him, and said with a smile: I want to go, by the way, I will come to see you, isn't it your birthday today, this is a birthday gift for you.Lin Fangxu took it with a smile, hugged it in his arms like a baby, and said movingly: Far away from home, I thought I couldn't receive the birthday gift prepared by my family, but fortunately, Xiaoyun was there.Jiang Shiwu, who was ignored, was a little unhappy at this time, he looked at them silently on horseback, and sneered in his heart I haven't married you yet, how can I be a family, besides, my father had already prepared a gift for him, but he would send it later.Jiang Shiyun didn't care about his brother's dissatisfaction, and he didn't care about Lin Fangxu's pretending to be pitiful, he was only a little worried: I heard my father say that several pavilions in the court are unfathomable people, you should be cautious today, don't accidentally implicate yourself.Also, my grandfather is the third prince, and others can't do anything about him Jiang Shiyun almost blurted out, if the situation is not good, you just don't follow your grandfather and them, but fortunately, he still has his senses, so he immediately stopped talking.Lin Fangxu had already understood his unfinished meaning, and he was amused and moved in his heart, Shigong should not want their generation to get involved, but he didn't want to be the same thing, if he knew that his grandson was instigating him to escape, leaving him alone, I was afraid that he would be so angry that he would blow his beard and stare at him.Jiang Shiyun saw him laughing happily, so angry that he gently shook him with a whip, and said angrily: I learned the news yesterday, and I was about to die, and you are still laughing!
Lin Fangxu caught the horsewhip, held the jade hand holding the whip, rubbed his fingers on the back of the person's hand, pulled the person closer, and said softly: Don't worry, I have measure.Hehe, where do I dare to take risks easily, leaving my jade-like husband cheap for others to go.Jiang Shiyun withdrew his hand suddenly, and scolded with a red face: What are you talking about?!
Lin Fangxu said aggrievedly: How can I say that if that's the case, I will not be willing to die!
Jiang Shiyun saw that he seemed to have suffered a lot of losses, and said with a red face and dissatisfaction: What is cheaper for others, I seem to be willing to marry anyone.Poof, Lin Fangxu only intended to tease him, but when he saw his cute appearance, he laughed out loud, couldn't help but pull the person into his arms, and said softly: Of course, Xiaoyun's eyes are high, how lucky he is to be favored by Xiaoyun.Jiang Shiwu saw that the two were hugging each other, his eyes were as big as copper bells, and he hurriedly looked around to see if anyone was coming.Fortunately, there are some low-grade Beijing officials living around, who are not qualified to go to the early court, nor have the opportunity to participate in the court meeting, so they don't need to get up early, so they don't have the opportunity to find out that someone is in broad daylight.Jiang Shiwu breathed a sigh of relief, and when he turned around and saw that Lin Fangxu was still holding his little brother, he coughed angrily and reminded: Xiaoyun, we have to go to the city, otherwise we won't be able to catch up.After seeing his sweetheart leave, Lin Fangxu opened the small package, there was a wooden box, which contained an inkstone, and a small handkerchief on the wooden box, and several different colors and patterns were wrapped in the handkerchief.Lin Fangxu put the two things back in the package, and asked Lin Fangyuan, who had been loading wood next to him, to take them back to the room and put them away, just looking at the handkerchief and smiling gently, although it looked a little plump and round, Lin Fangxu was sure that the moon-white handkerchief was embroidered with two mandarin ducks.Lin Fangxu didn't wait long at the gate of the Qianqing Palace with a handkerchief embroidered with fat mandarin ducks, and the emperor dispersed the early dynasty in advance, and returned to the Qianqing Palace accompanied by the crown prince and the eldest brother of the emperor, followed by more than 20 red-robed ministers.The court discussion is not better than the early dynasty, the early dynasty generally does not last too long, the court discussion is at least one or two hours, if the long time does not produce a result in the morning, most of the afternoon will continue to quarrel.Although Emperor Jianwen was very dissatisfied with the work ability and work attitude of these subordinates, he would not treat the employees harshly, and gave everyone a seat, including Lin Fangxu, who could also sit in the back row.At the beginning of the court discussion, it was just a discussion among the ministers, and the emperor only watched from the sidelines, and after the eunuchs who were waiting for them all stepped back in turn, Lord Shoufu said in a loud voice: Let's start the discussion, everyone must know about the autumn tax in Jiangnan this year.In April, when Qin Tianjian said that this year's rain was not as good as in previous years, the imperial court sent people to inquire about the specific situation in various places, and the local officials in charge all said that although there was some impact, it would not cause too many problems.To be honest, if there was no joint letter from Mrs.
Shang and others, the old man would not have thought that it was not a big problem, but a big problem!
After speaking, Kong Ge's old gaze swept over everyone, looking like you were too disappointed by the old man, and continued: The area south of the Yangtze River has accumulated various problems in the past dynasties.Oh, but I didn't expect that with such a hesitation, the north has recovered its vitality, and the people of Jiangnan who live in the land of fish and rice still can't eat enough!
If you let everyone prevaricate in the past, the old man may have no shame to stand in the court again.It is not unreasonable for Lin Fangxu to think that he was only worthy of being a chess piece in his previous life, you always said such a thing, and you actually picked yourself up, as if you were deceived by the people below how badly, and at the same time told the saint that he didn't care, but he didn't have time to take care of it.Between the words, the demeanor of the first assistant was fully displayed, and then he threw the question to Dong Ge Lao, and asked: Dong Ge Lao's ancestral home is Jiangnan, and he must understand it more clearly, where does Dong Ge Lao think to start with this intricate relationship?
