Chapter 257 Yang Lian is enlightened
Although Zhu Youjian was uneasy, Zhu Youjian also worked very hard with the power to restrain Zhu Xu and prevent him from doing anything randomly.
As soon as they left the palace, they summoned Shi Fenglai, Qian Longxi and others one after another, hoping to take them under their command and form a prime minister.
Zhu Xu left six ministers and quietly suggested that the six people were smart. Neither Zhu Xu’s direct relationship or Yin Ming or Shen Yongmao from the Ministry of War, he had no objection. Except for the Donglin Party, no one wanted the Donglin power to continue to expand to the point that it was difficult to curb.
Yang Lian held the memorial, frowned, sat in the sedan chair with a serious face, and returned home swayingly.
The housekeeper followed, and after watching his master leave the palace, he looked calm and said without saying a word, "Master, is it the emperor who makes things difficult for you? Now the emperor cannot live without you. If you really want to make things difficult, the emperor will definitely give in if he resigns..."
If it were the usual, Yang Lian wouldn't care. Now he listened to it with a particularly harsh tone and said coldly: "You are not allowed to say such words in the future, no matter where you are!"
The housekeeper was stunned, and came over, walked closer and whispered, "Master, did the emperor use any means?"
Yang Lian felt extremely uncomfortable now. Zhao Nanxing and the Donglin Party mobilized huge forces. He thought he was sure to win, but he didn't expect that the emperor had this thing in his hand. Once released, it would be the collapse of the sky and the earth, and it would be the disaster of the collapse of the Donglin Party!
Yang Lian held the memoir in his hand, his face moved, and he said, "It's okay, hurry up."
The housekeeper understood at this time and urged the sedan chair owner, "Did you hear it? Go home quickly."
The sedan chair owner agreed and speeded up.
The Yang Mansion, Zuo Guangdou and others had not left yet, and they were waiting. The Donglin Party's offensive became increasingly larger and stronger, and everyone was staring at the palace, waiting for the emperor to respond.
As soon as Yang Lian returned to his house, Zuo Guangdou and others came to meet him.
"Brother Yang, what's the result? What did the emperor say?"
"Does the emperor want to give in? I heard that King Xin and the six ministers of the ministers were recruited into the palace."
"Brother Yang, what news can you get?"
Yang Lian looked solemn and said, "Everyone, I'll talk in the study."
When everyone heard this, their faces changed slightly. Knowing the seriousness of the matter, they stopped asking questions and followed Yang Lian into the study.
After all the people were all together, Yang Lian silently handed the memorial to Zuo Guangdou.
"Is this?"
Zuo Guangdou looked slightly stunned, and took it and lowered his head and turned it over.
As he looked at his face, he looked up at Yang Lian and said, "Brother Yang, is this given to you by the Emperor?"
Yang Lian took a deep breath and said sternly: "Well, the emperor scolded me severely and asked me to come back. He said he did not see it."
Zuo Guangdou frowned and said, "Pretended that he didn't see it? What does this mean?"
The memorial was passed on for a wave, and most people understood it, but they were nervous but puzzled, saying, "What is the intention of the emperor? If you really want to punish Zhao Nanxing, just issue an order directly, why should you hand it over to Brother Yang?"
"Can it be that Lord Zhao is too powerful, and the emperor is a little afraid of being a gambler and wants Brother Yang to be a lobbyist?"
"Impossible. If you really are a lobbyist, then you will be a college student..."
Everyone was discussing Zhu Xu's purpose with each other.
After a while, there was no result. Yang Lian was puzzled and said carefully, "Forget it, I'll go to Ye's Mansion and ask what Lord Ye said."
When everyone heard this, they nodded secretly, thinking that this was a solution. Ye Xianggao had been in the cabinet for the longest time and had been in the officialdom for the longest time. He would definitely see through it.
This matter cannot be delayed. Yang Lian took the memorial and rushed to Ye Xianggao's mansion without stopping.
At this moment, Ye Xianggao stood under the eaves of the study, looking at the clear sky, but his eyes were filled with depressed expressions.
A middle-aged man stood beside him, in his early forties, with a generous face and a calm expression, saying, "Sir, Lord Zhou returned to the office of the Ministry of Personnel and summoned officials of the fifth rank or above, and strictly ordered that he should not participate in Lord Zhao's affairs. He asked to write a guarantee letter. If he did not write it, he would be dismissed immediately. The Ministry of War, Ministry of Revenue, Ministry of Justice, Ministry of Rites, and Ministry of Personnel are the same."
Ye Xianggao sighed and said, "Well, I already know this. News came from the Xinwang Mansion that the emperor visited at night and was preparing to sign the Xinwang as the Prime Minister of the Cabinet. The Prime Minister will no longer have auxiliary ministers in the government affairs of the world. Everyone has Xinwang recruited him for his own recruitment."
After hearing this, the middle-aged man around him pondered and said, "The emperor's move shows that he will never let the adults resume?"
Ye Xianggao nodded, his face became more worried, and said, "I had a premonition, but I always had hope. Besides, the emperor was young and needed someone to assist him. Now it seems that I was thinking too much. Meng Zhang, how long have you been in the Ministry of Personnel?"
The middle-aged man was named Fan Jingwen and his courtesy name was Mengzhang. He is currently the Wenxuanlang of the Ministry of Personnel. The Ministry of Personnel has made a decision and will be promoted to Yuanwailang after the reign of the emperor next year.
He heard Ye Xianggao's sudden change of topic, he was slightly stunned and said, "Sir, I'm in the Ministry of Personnel for more than a year."
Ye Xianggao looked at him with a smile and said, "Well, you are not bad at abilities and have enough qualifications. I plan to recommend you to King Xin. How about becoming the Prime Minister? "
Fan Jingwen's face moved slightly. Not to mention the promotion, it was a great favor to recommend it to the Prime Minister for his recommendation to the Prime Minister for the government affairs of the world, but he did not dare to accept it and bowed slightly and said, "Sir, this is..."
Ye Xianggao smiled bitterly and sighed: "Zhao Nanxing underestimates the emperor too much. Such a forced ward will not prevent the emperor. I am afraid that Zhao Nanxing will lose a lot of rice this time and a disaster will come."
Fan Jingwen's face changed slightly and said, "Sir, you are..."
Ye Xianggao held his hands behind his back and said lightly, "I will only tell you that the official has already packed his luggage. After this incident, he will return to his hometown to retire and no longer participate in the affairs of the capital."
There was an unexpected look in Fan Jingwen's eyes and said, "Sir, do you think the emperor really won't give in?"
Ye Xianggao laughed and shook. Just as he was about to speak, a servant led Yang Lian in and said, "Master, Lord Yang is here."
Yang Lian glanced at Fan Jingwen, raised his hand to Ye Xianggao, and said solemnly: "Mr. Ye, something happened."
Ye Xianggao was stunned and said, "What happened?"
Yang Lian handed over the memorial and said sternly: "Sir, let's take a look first."
Ye Xianggao frowned and took it and turned it over.
He sighed after not long after turning it over. He was the one who had to say the most clearly. After all, Zhao Nanxing was suppressing the cabinet and bowing his head, and he persuaded the cabinet to agree to Zhao Nanxing and dismiss the "Four Evils".
Ye Xianggao closed his arms and looked at Yang Lian and said, "Is it given to you by the Emperor?"
Yang Lian nodded.
Ye Xianggao looked up at the Forbidden City, was silent for a while, and then said to Yang Lian: "Do you don't understand the emperor's intention?"
Yang Lian said: "Yes, please help me solve my doubts."
Ye Xianggao smiled and said simply and clearly: "The emperor is really angry and wants to attack Zhao Nanxing. Tomorrow, whoever appears in Donghuamen will be a member of the party."
Yang Lian's face changed slightly, and he finally understood.
