Chapter 441 Another mastermind

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    The news of Xu Ge¡¯s retirement shocked both the government and the public.

    Three bachelors took the lead again and asked the emperor to retain Yuan Fu.

    Emperor Longqing replied that he had tried to persuade him to stay in person, but the old man had already decided to leave, so he should respect Yuan Fu's wishes.

    Seeing that the situation was dead and there was no chance of improvement, all government offices in the capital fell into great sorrow.

    For a while, the officials could not accept the kind and tolerant old chief minister, so they abandoned them.

    Those officials who have suffered Yuan Fu's benefit, especially the new dynasty, are crying, crying, liver and intestines.

    The imperial censors of Kedao collapsed directly.  Not only had they been protected and cared for by Yuan Fu for many years, but they also helped Yuan Fu kill Gao Gong and his group.

    Now that Mr. Xu Ge is gone, the bearded guy from Gaojiazhuang is probably going to come back to kill him again.

    When the time comes, who will protect these poor, weak, and helpless officials

    At the beginning, how much they sprayed high arches, how scared they were now.

    I don¡¯t know who was frightened to cry first, and then everyone started crying loudly. The scene was like a funeral.

    In this atmosphere of grief and indignation, some people couldn't help but reveal the story of Zhang Qi's original impeachment of Mr. Xu Ge.

    Nanjing was too far away to trouble Second Master Xu, so the officials immediately vented their anger on Zhang Qi.

    They first rushed into Zhang Qi¡¯s check-in room. When they saw no one was there, they smashed up his check-in room and took away two pairs of Wenwan walnuts that he had been stocking for half a year.

    The officials were particularly dissatisfied with their hatred and went to Zhang Qi's home. When they saw that the door was locked, they took down the door, rushed in and smashed it again.

    Then he killed a chicken and used the chicken's blood to write eight terrifying red letters on the wall: "The clown will be infamy for eternity"!

    Fortunately, Zhang Qi knew that he had nothing to eat and ran away in advance, otherwise the blood used for writing would not be chicken blood.

    ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? We have suffered for others, how innocent?

    ??~~

    In fact, Zhang Qi didn¡¯t run far. He was at the Sanjin Guild Hall on the street outside Chongwenmen.

    Wearing an inconspicuous half-worn brown cloth robe and a felt hat that covered most of his face, he followed a middle-aged man dressed as a businessman to a quiet and unique courtyard of the guild hall.

    In the yard, two elders with gray hair and beards were concentrating on playing chess.

    Behind them, each stood a man in his thirties, one handsome and handsome, the other fat and white.  They all held a teapot and watched the chess game with a smile.

    Hearing someone come in, the handsome man raised his finger to his lips to signal them to be quiet.

    Zhang Qi and the businessman stood aside obediently, not daring to breathe.

    Because of the two elders playing chess, one is the young master and the official minister Yang Bo, and the other is the governor of the household department Cangchang Shilang Wang Guoguang.

    The two people watching the chess game were Zhang Siwei, a lecturer on Jingyanri and editor of Hanlin Academy, and Wang Jiaping, a new scholar and Shuji scholar.

    ??????????Two senior officials from the Ministry and two rookie Hanlin guys get together during working hours just to play a game of chess?  What an addiction to chess that is.

    After a cup of tea, Yang Bo was beaten by Wang Guoguang and his mood exploded. The old man immediately disturbed the chessboard, grinned and said in his hometown dialect:

    "This guy is obsessed with life and has thick eyes, so he can pinch him and run away to death!"

    "You can't afford to lose." Wang Guoguang crossed his arms angrily.  "Pinch and follow me again, pinch like Sun Sun!"

    "Ahem." The handsome guy Zhang Siwei coughed twice to remind the two elders that there were outsiders here.

    "Oh, nephew Zhang Xian is here?" Yang Bo immediately regained his image as a graceful elder, stood up and said with a smile: "How about it, exciting?"

    "It's exciting, it's really exciting." Zhang Qi wiped the sweat from his forehead and said with a wry smile: "Junior and Brother Yang walked through the back door, and those guys went to the front door behind."

    ¡°Listen to the bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang, I guess there are not many whole things left in Brother Zhang Xian¡¯s family.¡± That brother Yang¡¯s name is Yang Sihe, he is Yang Bo¡¯s cousin, and he is also a famous Shanxi businessman in Beijing.

    "Let them smash it away. If the old ones don't go, the new ones won't come." Yang Bo laughed loudly, patted Zhang Qi on the shoulder and said, "Just live here with peace of mind. I will help you settle the rest."

    "Yes." Wang Guoguang took the teapot from Wang Jiaping, took a sip and said with a smile: "Master Tianguan is watching over you, just put your heart back in your stomach, and I will arrange a good place for you as soon as the storm passes.  "

    "Don't worry, don't worry. It's my nephew's honor to be able to vent his anger for Shibo!" Zhang Qi had a sincere smile on his face. Being able to climb up the ranks of Shanxi merchants and Shanxi party is worth losing his official position.

    "You're really good at talking, let's go." Yang Bo waved his hand and told his nephew: "?Enter nephew Zhang Xian well.  "

    "Uncle, don't worry." Yang Sihe nodded with a smile, and then said to Wang Guoguang and the others: "Don't disturb Yaxing anymore."

    After saying that, he took Zhang Qi to salute and went down.

    ??~~

    When the two of them went out, Zhang Siwei couldn't help but ask Yang Bodao: "Uncle, why do we want to get involved in this? If they really want to investigate, I'm afraid it won't be difficult to discover the relationship between Zhang Qi and our Shanxi merchants, and then think of you.  old."

    "Haha, I'm afraid that people wouldn't think of it." Yang Bo laughed indifferently and said, "Ziwei, you are just too cautious. Don't you know that the saying in military warfare is 'to use the right combination and to use the unexpected to win'?"

    Zhang Siwei and Yang Bo are both from Puzhou. Yang Bo¡¯s son Yang Junqing is the son-in-law of Zhang Siwei¡¯s uncle Wang Chonggu.  Yang Bo's granddaughter also got engaged to Zhang Siwei's son Zhang Dingzheng.

    Wang Guoguang and Wang Jiaping were also fellow villagers of Wang Chonggu.

    This group of old Westerners were connected together in this way and formed the Shanxi Merchants and Shanxi Party with a long history, low profile and power.

    Because everyone is related, unlike other factions, they are integrated in business and politics, regardless of each other.  Moreover, they have a close relationship with each other, and the cultivation, maintenance and promotion of the younger generations by the elders are far beyond the comparison of officials from other factions.

    As Wang Chonggu¡¯s close nephew, Zhang Siwei has always been cultivated as the next leader of the Jin Party.

    Naturally, Yang Bo would not hide and tuck in with him.  "Yes, without Zhang Qi's intervention, Xu Ge would probably have returned to his hometown. And in that case, Yuan Fu could have a more dignified life. But what good would that do to us?"

    ¡°Aren¡¯t you just trying to get out of the capital and look at that birdy air last year?¡± Wang Guoguang joked, ¡°Do you have any other ideas?¡±

    "That's right, I just wanted to vent my anger. Damn it, he, Xu Yaozi, was fighting with Gao Gong, and actually used me to sacrifice the flag!" Yang Bo spat with an unhappy face: "If you don't give him this, everyone in the world will forget that Shanxi people are  Jealousy!"

    "What kind of metaphor is this" Wang Guoguang burst out laughing all over the chessboard.

    "You're so dirty, I won't follow you anymore." Yang Bo glanced at him, turned to Zhang Siwei and Wang Jiaping and said:

    "But just like what I taught you, you can't let your anger go to your head. Even if you want revenge, just take it as it comes. I tell you, I mainly do it for Gao Beard's eyes."

    "So that's it." Zhang Siwei suddenly said: "Gao Xinzheng was already on good terms with his uncle, and his uncle asked people to impeach Mr. Xu Ge to step down, which is equivalent to helping him return. When Gao Xinzheng takes power, what will happen to us Shanxi people?  It¡¯ll be better.¡±

    "Not bad." Yang Bo nodded with approval, then said bitterly: "If Xu Yaozi hadn't driven Gao Huzhu home, we might have had border trade with the Tatars. How could there have been last year's Shizhou Incident and martial law in the capital?  !¡±

    ¡°A tall beard is not a bad thing, so aren¡¯t you afraid that he will turn his back on you after he comes to power?¡± Wang Guangguang asked somewhat arrogantly.

    "Can he afford to lose his temper? If he wants to fight with those people in the southeast, how can he just rely on a few Henan guys? Why not rely on us Shanxi people?" Yang Bo smiled confidently: "Look if you don't believe it.  Well, after Gao Huzi comes back, he will definitely take care of An Da first, and then slowly take care of the south!"

    Everyone understands.

    Gao Gong naturally cannot do without the help of the Jin Party if he wants to deal with An Da.  After finishing my answer, Shanxi merchants will still have to rely on Shanxi merchants to maintain relations with Mongolia. Naturally, the two sides can only get closer and closer until they can no longer distinguish each other
