I, Jiajing, successfully cultivated immortality

Chapter 423 The Rivalry Between Two Political Groups
Forbidden City, Qianqing Palace.

At this moment, Lu Fang was walking eagerly towards the Qianqing Palace, and in his sleeves was the news sent back by the Jinyi guards who had been sent to Zhejiang.

Lu Fang was taken aback by the news sent back by the Jinyiwei sent to Zhejiang. He never thought that such a big event would happen in Zhejiang!

About a month ago, the grain in the hands of those mulberry farmers in Zhejiang was bought by unknown people at a high price.

As a result, those mulberry farmers can only rely on the relief food distributed by the government to survive, but the problem is that the current relief food stored in the government is not enough to support the consumption of those mulberry farmers.

Thinking of this, the expression on Lu Fang's face suddenly became gloomy, and she immediately complained: "What are Yan Song and Xu Jie up to, don't they know, if this continues, will there be big problems?"

When Lu Fang came back to her senses, she realized that she had arrived at Qianqing Palace before she knew it.

"Hey, I hope His Majesty won't be too angry later!"

After Lu Fang sighed with emotion, she immediately restrained her mind and entered the Qianqing Palace with silent steps.

……

In Qianqing Palace, Jiajing is in a state of meditation at this moment.

After sensing someone coming in, Jiajing immediately exited the meditation state, opened his eyes, slowly got up from the futon, turned his gaze to Lu Fang, and asked.

"Lu Fang, have you got any results from what I ordered you earlier?"

Hearing this, Lu Fang nodded slightly, then came to Jiajing's side, took out the envelope in his sleeve, and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, this is the place where the Jinyi guards you sent to Zhejiang were investigating. situation."

After Lu Fang's words fell, Jiajing took the envelope from Lu Fang's hand expressionlessly, opened it, and began to browse the contents recorded on it.

Lu Fang secretly observed the expression on Jiajing's face, not even daring to breathe.

Gradually, Jiajing's brows became more and more wrinkled. Seeing this situation, Lu Fang became more and more uneasy. While the respectful expression on her face remained unchanged, she lowered her head even lower.

Afterwards, Jiajing put the paper in his hand aside, sneered, and immediately spoke.

"Hmph, let me just say, why are there so many strange things happening recently?"

"It turns out that Yan Song and Xu Jie are two guys who, without telling me, are fighting in Zhejiang!"

Seeing this situation, Lu Fang organized the words in her mind, and immediately asked Jiajing cautiously.

"Your Majesty, do you need your slaves to call Mr. Yan Ge and Mr. Xu Ge over?"

After listening to Lu Fang's proposal, Jiajing just waved his hand and gave instructions.

"Well, go and call Yan Song and Xu Jie to me right now!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

After Lu Fang responded, she didn't dare to stay in the slightest, and immediately left Qianqing Palace.

……

In the cabinet, several people are processing the corresponding memorials. Since Yan Song took the opportunity of buying a newspaper last time to test Xu Jie's reality, the last layer of window paper between the two sides has also been pierced.

Everyone has a premonition that the final decisive battle will come soon, and the key to the decisive battle is whether the reform of rice into mulberry in Zhejiang can continue!
If the reform of rice into mulberry in Zhejiang fails due to lack of food supply, Qingliu led by Xu Jie will officially kick off the prelude to the downfall. If it can continue, Yan Song's crazy counterattack will greet Xu Jie and the others.

For a long time, the contradictions between the two sides have accumulated to the point where it cannot be added. This is not just a personal grievance between Yan Song and Xu Jie, but also includes differences in their respective governance philosophies, as well as different views on major national affairs.

In other words, this is a rivalry between two political groups!

And in this upcoming decisive battle, either the strict party wins or the clear stream wins, other than that, there is no third result!
Because of this, right now, the atmosphere in the cabinet is quite dull, everyone is cautious, trying not to expose too many flaws in front of each other.

At this moment, there was a rush of footsteps from outside the cabinet, and everyone followed the prestige, only to see a subordinate employee stepping into the cabinet, facing everyone, and reporting respectfully.

"Old man, Mr. Lu is out to see you!"

After the subordinate official's voice fell, everyone present could smell something unusual in it: "Why did Lu Fang come here at this time, could it be His Majesty's side..."

While everyone was still guessing, Xu Jie came to his senses first, and then gave instructions to the subordinate staff.

"What are you still doing, why don't you invite Eunuch Lu in!"

"Yes, old Xu Ge!"

After the subordinate staff responded, he turned and left the cabinet without stopping.

Not long after, Lu Fang stepped into the cabinet, Yan Song and others saw this, quickly got up from their seats, and said respectfully.

"I've seen Eunuch Lu!"

"Ah."

After that, Lu Fang looked at Yan Song and Xu Jie respectively, and then said in a voice that could not hear any emotion: "Mr. Yan Ge, Mr. Xu Ge, Your Majesty asks you two to go there immediately!"

Hearing this, Yan Song and Xu Jie couldn't help but look at each other, wanting to see something in each other's eyes.

After that, Yan Song came back to his senses and said respectfully: "Yes, Mr. Lu, we will go now."

Hearing this, Lu Fang withdrew her eyes from Yan Song and Xu Jie, and continued, "Let's go, it will be bad if you make His Majesty wait too long!"

After Lu Fang finished speaking, she turned around and left the cabinet. Seeing this situation, Yan Song and Xu Jie hurriedly followed Lu Fang's pace.

Looking at Lu Fang's back, Yan Song couldn't help hesitating: "Could it be possible that Your Majesty has already learned about the situation in Zhejiang?"

With such doubts in mind, Yan Song and Xu Jie followed Lu Fang's footsteps to Qianqing Palace.

……

I saw Lu Fang stepping into the Qianqing Palace, and then went straight to Jiajing's side, and said softly.

"Your Majesty, Elder Yan Ge and Elder Xu Ge have arrived!"

"Well, I see!"

After a while, I saw Yan Song and Xu Jie stepping into the Qianqing Palace one after another. As soon as they entered the Qianqing Palace, they knelt on the ground respectfully and said in unison.

"My minister bows to His Majesty, long live my emperor, long live long live!"

Jiajing roughly swept his gaze over Yan Song and Xu Jie, and immediately ordered.

"Well, get up, both of you!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

After receiving Jiajing's consent, Yan Song and Xu Jie slowly got up from the ground.

But I don't know if it was Jiajing's illusion. At this moment, Yan Song and Xu Jie buried their heads very low like children who did something wrong.

Jiajing withdrew his gaze from Yan Song and Xu Jie, and spoke unhurriedly.

"You two, do you know why I called you here this time?"

After Jiajing finished speaking, the expressions of respect on the faces of Yan Song and Xu Jie remained unchanged, and they said in unison.

"Report to Your Majesty, I don't know about it, so please tell Your Majesty clearly!"

Seeing this situation, Jiajing flashed a cold smile on his face, and immediately glanced at Lu Fang beside him, before turning to speak.

"Don't worry, you will soon understand why I called you two here today?"
