Chapter 538

Tang Ji was restless and always felt that someone was peeping at him, but when he looked in the direction of peeping, he had nothing. Could it be that he was suspicious of a dark ghost? He thought, turned his head, leaned on the back of the chair, and still felt that a line of sight was falling behind him. After this three or five times, he could no longer bear it and stood up.

The hot sunlight like fire made the leaves of the two trees beside the corridor curl slightly, and heat waves hit the face. Yongtong, which was exposed to the sun, seemed to be about to smoke.

Tang Ji was irritated and felt even more hot. He stood in the corridor for a while, and his vision was as marrow as the bones, and he couldn't escape. He thought for a while and went to He Yang's class room.

He Yang was very busy. When he saw him coming, he looked up and said quickly, "Shi Tang, is there anything wrong?" Then he quickly buried his head in the document.

Tang Ji was stunned for a moment, and then he remembered that he had been very idle these two days.

On this day, Tang Ji passed by. Finally, until the hour of You, the sound of footsteps sounded under the corridor, and a colleague passed by the door of his class. If people passing by saw him sitting in the room, they would have to come in and say hello and say a few gossips, but now they are looking past without looking at each other.

When someone left, Tang Ji also rolled up the official documents that were spread on the table, got up and walked out. Since Dai Wei found out that he had received a 600-mile memorial, the official documents that should be transferred to him were handled by Cheng Mo. He was very idle. However, it was not good to sway inside and outside the courtyard for a long time. If he touched Cheng Mo, his butt would bloom again, so he went back to the class room and spread a bamboo slip on the table, pretending to be handling official duties.

After leaving Gongwu, he breathed a sigh of relief and finally got rid of the invisible sight. He had a scheming intention and asked the coachman to circle the North Que first. Even if someone followed him, he would be confused.

After almost an hour walking around the Beique, he had walked in some places two or three times before he ordered the coachman to go to Zhang Mian's mansion.

No matter how dull a person is, he knows that he is isolated, not to mention that he thinks he is a smart person. He feels that he can no longer stay in Gongwu, so he wants to talk to Zhang Mian and ask him to take him over. With Cheng Mo's disgust for him, he will definitely agree, so that he can escape from the sea of ​​suffering.

After Zhang Mian dispersed, he kept locked himself in the study room, but he has not come out yet.

Tang Ji waited in the ear room next to the study room for a long time. Seeing that it was getting dark and his stomach was so hungry that he was rumbling. There was no movement in the study room, so he had to beg the servant who stood with his hands down outside the study room: "Please inform me again. I have something important to discuss with Taichang. When he heard that I was coming, he would definitely meet me."

The servant smiled and said, "I just said that my son Lang had ordered that nothing should be disturbed. I'm sorry, Chief Tang."

The servant did say that just now, but Tang Ji thought that he and Zhang Mian had a special relationship, so Zhang Mian would definitely make an exception.

"What Zhang Taichang said is that the general situation is different, Tang is a bit different."

The servant rolled his eyes and thought to himself, "What's the difference between you? Are you the emperor?"

Tang Ji kept pestering the servant, but the servant just refused. Suddenly the door opened with a creaking sound and Zhang Mian walked out.

Zhang Mian has been thinking about it for the past two days. After the court dispersed, he did not go to the Gongwu to handle government affairs, but went back to the house and locked himself in the study room. He even rested in the study room last night. The voices outside alarmed him, and he frowned and walked out impatiently.

The yard where the study room is located is only about three meters long and there are no pavilions and towers in the yard. However, a huge pine tree is as paved as a cover, blocking most of the sunshine in the yard. The yard is much cooler than elsewhere.

At this time, there was a person hiding on the twisted and thick branches of the pine tree. The man was hiding in the dense leaves while the sky was dark, and no one noticed it for a while.

Tang Ji and the servant did not expect that there was someone in the tree. The more Tang Ji spoke, the more excited he became, the louder he spoke, which alarmed Zhang Mian in the room, and the people on the tree naturally heard his words clearly.

The man looked down at him, and Zhang Mian said blankly: "Zi Pu, if you come here like this, what if the boy from the Cheng family discovers?"

Tang Jiru grabbed the straw and bowed to Zhang Mian to the ground. When he stood up, he had already had a bitter face. He made Cheng Mo possible discovery of their plan, isolated him, and told him about what he might do to him at any time, and then begged: "Taichang, you asked me to be an insider, but I didn't refuse. Now that I have done this, my future will be ruined. You can't stand by death and refuse to save me."

Zhang Mian said coldly: "You have just hidden a memorial of 600 miles, which is not enough to overthrow him. You must continue to lurk until you overthrow him. Zipu, as long as I am the prime minister, I will definitely grant you an official who has a salary of 2,000 s. You should be patient for a while."

An official with a salary of 2,000 s, just like the fifth rank of officials in the Ming and Qing dynasties, was a watershed for officials. He could eat a salary of 2,000 s, and he could afford to be a child. He would have no such benefit.

Tang Jie smiled bitterly and said, "I have been emptied, I'm afraid I will never get useful information again."

"What?" Zhang Mian said with a harsh face and said sternly: "Zi Pu, how could you be so careless? If you were the boy named Cheng who found an opportunity to be demoted from Prime Minister Gongwo, who would I serve as the inner support?"

In fact, Tang Ji accidentally revealed the truth, and he regretted it as soon as he said it. He had no value in use. Will Zhang Mian still value him? He was afraid that he would have to cross the river and demolish the bridge immediately. He wanted to say a few words to cover it up. Unexpectedly, Zhang Mian turned against him and said, "Zhang Taichang, if you hadn't come to me to discuss, I would have been flogged? Now because of you, I can't even do this chief minister. You are talking like this?"

At worst, he would confess to Cheng Mo, to make a conspiracy to prove Zhang Mian. After saying that, he brushed his sleeves and turned around and left.

Zhang Mian shouted angrily: "Take him down."

This servant is his confidant. If he wants to consider things alone in the study or meet his confidant, he will ask the servant to wait at the door. First, he will keep the door so that he will not let irrelevant people disturb him or eavesdrop on what should not be heard; second, someone will use tea and water. But this servant is only fourteen or fifteen years old, tall and thin, like bean sprouts, so where is Tang Ji's opponent?

He hesitated for a moment, thought he couldn't take Tang Ji down, so he ran away and shouted, "Where is the person coming."

This is to kill someone to silence him. Tang Ji was wise in a hurry and sneered: "I'm not here alone. If I don't go out for an hour, the person who is guarding outside will send a handwritten letter I wrote to Prime Minister Cheng. Then your conspiracy will be exposed. With Your Majesty's emphasis on Prime Minister Cheng, do you think Your Majesty will believe this?"

"What?" Zhang Mian said angrily: "You actually brought an irrelevant person with you?"

He was really blind at the beginning and found such a person to be an insider.
