Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    The rain keeps falling and the atmosphere is not harmonious

    As soon as Zhang Juzheng showed his power, the little Ge Lao who raised an army to accuse him was forcibly suppressed.

    When he came to his senses and wanted to save some face, Zhang Juzheng was already gone.

    Xiao Ge threw away his umbrella angrily and walked quickly towards his father's house.

    Unless necessary, Mr. Xu Ge basically did not enter Wenyuan Pavilion. Every day, memorials were sent to Zhilu for approval.

    Zhang Juzheng and three other bachelors had to come to Zhilu if they wanted to see him.

    On these days, Mr. Xu Ge has already read the memorial and started drafting it.

    Maybe it¡¯s because rainy days make people tired easily. At this time, Mr. Xu Ge was not sitting in front of the desk. Instead, he was sitting on a slightly swaying bamboo rocking chair, looking at the spring rain falling harder and harder outside the door.

    I saw that Xu Fan walked in from the rain curtain without an umbrella, his shoulders were wet, and the green gauze hat on his head was deformed by the rain.

    Seeing his son's embarrassed appearance, Xu Jie finally came to his senses.

    "How did it happen?"

    "I just went to see Zhang Taiyue." Xu Fan took the Songjiang cotton towel offered by the servant and waved his hand to repel him.

    "Why are you looking for him?" Xu Jie couldn't help but frown.

    "I want to ask him, what is his intention? He actually wants to protect the boy named Zhao!" Xu Fan gritted his teeth and said: "I think he is an ungrateful thing. My father should not have praised him so highly in the first place!"

    Before they finished speaking, the two of them saw their eyes turn white for an instant, and when the room returned to darkness again, a thunder exploded above them.

    Xu Fan couldn't help but feel a little scared, secretly thinking, could God be protecting Zhang Juzheng?

    "I heard that the speed of sound is not as fast as lightning"

    But I heard my father suddenly say quietly.

    "Ah?" Xu Fan was stunned: "What does this mean?"

    "This is what I heard from the boy named Zhao when I was peeing last night." Xu Jie sighed softly: "Yesterday I only saw dazzling lightning and deafening thunder, but it hasn't arrived yet."

    "Uh" Xu Fan was a little confused and didn't understand what his father meant.

    "Don't provoke Taiyue anymore." Xu Jie looked solemn and stood up slowly with his arms on the armrests of the rocking chair.

    Mr. Xiao Ge quickly helped his father stand up.

    "He was chosen by me to pass on the mantle. Don't always think about getting better. You can't beat him." Xu Jie glanced at him expressionlessly.

    "Father." Xu Fanxin asked, "What the hell happened today?"  Are they all here to harass me?

    "Now, we are in big trouble."

    But Xu Jie¡¯s next words made Xu Fan wake up completely.

    "Why did father say this?"

    "Didn't you see it yesterday? Li and Chen also spoke for the boy." Xu Jie said with a gloomy expression:

    ¡°This was completely unimaginable in the past.¡±

    "Yes." Xu Fan nodded with deep understanding: "Li Chunfang can still understand, he is the leader of those people after all. Chen Yiqin's behavior is confusing."

    "There is no need to delve into the reason." Xu Jie looked at his son with some disappointment and said: "There was once a small pavilion elder who said to his father that when you are in a high position, there is no need to guess the thoughts of the people below. There are so many people and it is exhausting to guess.  But don¡¯t come.¡±

    "It makes sense." Xu Fan nodded and accepted the instruction. He knew that his father was talking about Yan Shifan.  At that time, the two were sons and daughters, and they moved very closely.  "It's useless to express loyalty even if a person's heart is separated from his belly."

    "Yes." Xu Jie slowly walked to the door, stretched out his well-maintained hand, and tried the cool rain outside. He couldn't help but smile: "Spring rain is as precious as oil. With this rain, the drought can be alleviated a lot.  .¡±

    "Yes." Xu Fan nodded and couldn't help but ask: "Father, you don't know what the people below are thinking, so how can you control them?"

    "It's enough to lead them by the nose." Mr. Xu Ge took his hand back and shook off the raindrops on his hand.

    "That's what my son did." Xu Fan smiled.

    "No, you are being led by the nose." Xu Jie said mercilessly.

    "No." Xu Fan's face suddenly became confused.

    "Weren't you fooled enough by the boy named Zhao yesterday?" Xu Jie spat out his breath and said, "Although that boy is indeed a bit of a monster."

    Xu Fan twitched the corner of his mouth twice, not wanting to take the trouble, so he said in a low voice: "Then what should father do?"

    "I think they are just too busy. If you find something for them to do, no one will be able to take care of me and think about my position."

    I saw Mr. Xu Ge steadily walking back to the desk and picking up a copy of the Ministry of War¡¯s report."Take a look," Zhang said.

    Xu Fan hurriedly took it and took a look, and saw that it was a memorial from Duke Cheng Guo. The main message was, 'Originally, the Tengxiang Four Guards Army was under the jurisdiction of the Royal Horse Supervisor, but later due to various reasons, it was handed over to the Beijing Camp.  Nowadays, His Majesty's imperial guards are stretched thin and cannot recruit new ones at the moment. The Four Tengxiang Guards can be returned to the Royal Horse Prison to expand the inner court guards and better protect the emperor's safety.  ¡¯

    In addition, Cheng Guogong also proposed that commanding the three camps by himself would be too powerful and would not be a long-term solution. He asked your majesty to send eunuchs to the camps to reassure both the inside and outside.

    After reading ten lines at a glance, Mr. Xiao Ge couldn¡¯t help but spat: ¡°This old fart has a clean butt!¡±

    "Do you really think it's his own thoughts?" Mr. Xu Ge glanced at his son.

    "Of course not." Xu Fan categorically shook his head and said: "Last time, Feng Bao came to the cabinet to argue that there was a serious shortage of soldiers in the imperial army and that he wanted the Ministry of Household Affairs to allocate money to recruit new soldiers. As a result, Mabu Tang repulsed him on the spot."

    "Of course, Mr. Xiao Ge will not mention the issue of my father's guarantee for Eunuch Feng.

    "It seems that Eunuch Feng is quite persistent and has set his sights on the capital camp again." Xu Fan sneered and said: "He was actually able to do the job of Tongcheng Duke and asked him to hand over the four guards of Tengxiang.  "

    "But that's right, Cheng Guogong doesn't intend to rebel, so what's the use of holding so many soldiers?" Then he snapped, closed the memorial, and said with a mocking smile: "Originally, I could still eat and drink with free money.  The blood of the soldiers. Now that the imperial court can't take the blame, and there's no free money to eat, it's better to get rid of this big burden and please your majesty."

    Xu Jie nodded with a slight expression on his face and asked Xu Fan: "Then what do you think should be done to vote?"

    "Of course it's rejected!" Xu Fan said without hesitation: "Teng Xiang, Feng Bao, Chen Hong and Meng Chong are a bunch of eunuchs who want to be the Eight Tigers of this dynasty, so go ahead and dream!"

    When Xu Jie heard this, he sighed secretly.  Xu Fan's strengths lie in his ability to remember and understand the subtleties of his writings.  But asking him to make the decision and take the leading role is always a bit boring.

    Well, it¡¯s more than a little bit off.

    So he is more like joining the army than being a mastermind, and he is not as talented as Zhang Juzheng.

    "It's a pity that he always doesn't believe in evil"

    Mr. Xu Ge sighed helplessly.

    After being forced to retreat from Gao Gong, he knew that he must have a bad impression in the emperor's heart, so he deliberately lived in seclusion in Zhilu and controlled the government through his son.

    Naturally, he also intended to give Xu Fan a chance to be his own man. He wanted to see if his son could hold up the task?

    Needless to say, the result

    In fact, Mr. Xu Ge originally planned to give Xu Fan more time, but the attitude of the three bachelors last night made Mr. Xu's increasingly numb nerves suddenly become alert.

    The wind starts at the end of Qingping and ends in the forest.

    He knew that he could no longer let Xu Fan mess around, he had to take action himself to clean up the situation.

    Xu Jie then slowly shook his head and said, "No, it's time to play."
