Chapter 805 Mr. Zhao¡¯s Helper

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    It¡¯s slightly cold in early winter in the south of the Yangtze River, and it¡¯s already snowing heavily in Beijing.

    The long Little Ice Age has not officially begun yet, but it has already revealed its power.

    Goose-feather-like snowflakes fell one after another, laying a thick white blanket inside and outside the capital.

    It was windy and snowy, there were few cars and horses, and the official road was covered with heavy snow, making it almost impossible to see the road.

    Suddenly, there was a rapid ringing of copper bells, and three horses, with their hooves turned over, galloped along the official road towards the east gate.

    The bell was emitted by the bronze bells hanging from the waists of the three knights.  The copper bell and the red flags of "Pegasus Express", "Officials and Citizens Give Way" and "Interceptors Die" stuck on their backs illustrate their identity - couriers who deliver urgent messages to the imperial court.

    The officers and soldiers guarding the Dongbian Gate quickly got out of the way and let their flying horses rush into Beijing.

    The people in the capital also knew the rules very well. When they heard the bell, they all gave way. The three horses galloped all the way and broke into the General Affairs Office, and then they reined in the horses.

    The official of the Yamen hurriedly caught the three frozen knights. Without caring about their life or death, he first untied the copper letter box from the back of the three people and presented Nayan immediately.

    Of the three mailboxes, only one contained a secret message, but even the messenger who delivered the letter didn't know which one was true.

    General Affairs Envoy Xue Songyi checked the three mailboxes and saw that the paint was intact, so he opened them one by one and found the eight-hundred-mile urgent letter from Yingtian Governor's Yamen in the third mailbox.

    After cutting open the envelope with three chicken feathers stuck on it, Xue Songyi immediately changed his expression and said in a deep voice: "Prepare your horses, I am about to enter the palace!"

    ??~~

    After a while, the letter written by Niu Qianshi reporting the Jiangnan Incident and Zheng Yuanshao's confession were placed in front of the three bachelors.

    For a long time, you could hear needles dropping in Wenyuan Pavilion.

    The three bachelors were all stunned, and Bu Gu's body was even more frightened, expressing the shock and anger in his heart.

    Xu Fan, Xu Fan, what kind of trouble are you trying to make? Are you planning to kill your father?  !

    The first assistant Li Chunfang and the second assistant Chen Yiqin were also in a very bad mood.

    Although they wanted Mr. Xu Ge to retire quickly at first, once Xu Jie did retire, the two of them immediately took up the banner of Mr. Xu Ge and regarded themselves as leaders of the Xu Party.

    Don¡¯t tell me, these hands are really easy to use.  Under the real threat that Gao Gong might come back at any time, those Xu Party members did not bother to examine in detail what role these two played in the downfall of Mr. Xu Ge.  Everyone united under their banner.

    In the past six months, Li Chunfang, together with Chen Yiqin, prevented Gao Gong's name from appearing in the main selection of the University Scholars three times.

    Finally, Emperor Longqing temporarily gave up his urgent idea of ??restoring Gao Gong.

    The two of them had not yet enjoyed the quiet time, but something like this happened again!

    How can they continue to hold down the banner of the Xu Party?  Embarrassing, extremely embarrassing.

    ??~~

    After a long while, Li Chunfang said helplessly: "Let's talk about it, what should we do?"

    "What else can we do?" Chen Yiqin snorted: "Send an imperial envoy to investigate and calm down the discussion first."

    "Yeah." Li Chunfang nodded vaguely and said in a very bad mood: "I guess the Nanjing Sanfa Division has already taken action, so I will appoint Zhu Butang and the other three as imperial envoys and go to the nearest place to inquire."

    "There's no need to bother with this." Chen Yiqin asked in a muffled voice, "What if the pass is at the back?"

    "Of course I'll let the new governor Yingtian investigate. We have Zheng Yuanshao's confession, so we just have to follow the clues." As the chief assistant, Li Chunfang naturally has to always be politically correct in what he says.

    "Then who will be the governor?" Chen Yiqin asked.

    "Let's take a look at the list given by the Ministry of Civil Affairs." Li Chunfang said gloomily: "We will discuss it when the time comes."

    "This" Chen Yiqin gasped a few times with some dissatisfaction, and endured it without saying anything.

    Zhang Juzheng has remained silent, which is also a reflection of his state in the past six months.  Now that there are three people in the cabinet, the first assistant and the second assistant are united, and he, the only cabinet member, is having a hard time.

    It¡¯s okay if Li Chunfang can do well, but he is a complete replica of Mr. Xu Ge. He believes in being quiet and doing nothing, and he is more enthusiastic about lecturing than Mr. Xu Ge.

    Bu Gu felt very angry, but the two of them put the responsibility of forcing Yuan Fu away on him, covertly and covertly.  Zhang Juzheng became more and more difficult to move in the Xu Party. He had to give up the idea of ????returning to high status immediately, hide his strength and bide his time, avoid the limelight, and wait for the opportunity.

    So after a brief moment of shock and anger, he realized that the opportunity he had been waiting for had come.

    Sure enough, the two bosses looked at him together.  "?Yue, this is a serious matter, so I'd like to trouble you to go and report to the emperor.  "

    "As ordered." Zhang Juzheng nodded in agreement and took the memorial with both hands, but Li Chunfang did not hand him Zheng Yuanshao's confession.

    Zhang Juzheng cast a searching gaze.

    Li Chunfang held down the confession and said with an unnatural smile: "This is just one side of Zheng's words. Handing it to the emperor rashly will inevitably bring down the thunderous wrath. What if the final investigation result is inconsistent with this confession? How can we  Are you not harming your majesty by not distinguishing right from wrong and wronging a good person?"

    "Then wait, and then submit it together when we have a conclusion." Chen Yiqin also nodded, and it was not wrong to do so.  Many times, the emperor only needs to know the results, not the process.

    "Yes." What else could Zhang Juzheng say? He nodded, put away the confession, and turned around to go out.

    Li Chunfang watched him put on a bright red cloak, sit on the waistcoat with an oilcloth roof, and walk across the stone bridge. Then she looked away and said quietly: "I was unhappy now."

    "Then you still let him go?" Chen Yiqin snorted.

    "If I don't let him go, he will go on his own." Li Chunfang said lightly, and sighed: "Nanchang Gong, Mr. Xu Ge can no longer hold up this banner."

    "This is what I just wanted to say." Chen Yiqin picked up the confession and shook it angrily: "Mr. Xu Ge is also an old fool. How can he let his son do such a thing? I, Mr. Chen, are ashamed to be associated with him!  "

    It sounds nice, but the main reason is that Mr. Xu Ge¡¯s reputation is about to become a negative asset.  Using Xu Jie's banner again will only drag them down.

    "It doesn't matter if we can't defeat it. We have to raise our own banner sooner or later anyway." Li Chunfang sighed: "It's just that His Majesty and Zhang Taiyue are afraid that they will take the opportunity to revolt against Gao Xinzheng. Can we still withstand it now?"

    "You have to resist even if you can't resist it!" Chen Yiqin puffed his beard and glared: "As soon as he comes back, let's just wait until the game is over."

    "Then why don't you come up with a charter?" Li Chunfang said helplessly: "Can Gao Xinzheng be stared back by staring?"

    "How could I have thought of it in such a short time?" Chen Yiqin said dejectedly.

    The two husbands and wives were looking at each other with sadness. Suddenly they saw Li Maocai, the old man from the small pavilion, coming in from outside.

    "Father, my master has sent me some boxes of tea for you to taste." Li Maocai bowed to Chen Yiqin and then placed several beautiful tea boxes on the table.

    Li Chunfang casually took the box handed to him by his son.  I opened the lid and wanted to smell the tea to wake myself up, but I saw a few words on the inside of the lid.

    He couldn¡¯t help but be stunned for a moment, then showed a look of surprise, and then laughed and said: "Okay, thank you master."

    ps. Third update, I went for physical therapy today, and it almost hurt me to death. The doctor told me not to stay up late again.  Go to bed early and write more tomorrow.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
