Chapter 417 Wang Zhi’s awakening

Chen Xun rode a carriage and arrived at Wang Zhi's mansion. At this moment, there were a large number of officials waiting to meet at the door of Wang Zhi's mansion. However, seeing that the door was closed, Wang Zhi probably didn't want to see guests either!

Wang Zhi is different from before. If he is not a good friend or has something important to do, Wang Zhi basically does not see guests at home!

Chen Xun asked his entourage to knock on the door. After knocking on the door, the entourage handed over a greeting card!

After a while, the door opened, Wang Zhi's son came out to greet him, and Chen Xun also got off the carriage!

The ministers waiting at the door also discovered at this moment that the person sitting in this ordinary carriage was Chen Xun, the chief minister of the cabinet, so those ministers also bowed and handed over to Chen Xun!

Chen Xun nodded with a smile and walked straight to the gate of Wang Zhi's mansion!

Wang Zhi's son led Chen Xun to the study. Wang Zhi stood up and held hands with Chen Xun. He did not go out to greet him, but was handling things in the study!

In the past two years, there have been too many officials to be transferred. Wang Zhi has almost always been selecting people for the court. However, because of his hard work, he also won His Majesty's approval!

"You're busy on the third day of the Lunar New Year?" Chen Xun found a place to sit down by himself!

Wang Zhi nodded and said: "But, after the Lantern Festival, Yu Qian will go to Shanxi and Shaanxi. I need to prepare a list of those officials in advance for His Majesty's inquiry. Hey, there have been too many officials in the past two years. They have been transferred, but they are not bad. Most of the officials are still good. Of course, some have made mistakes. The local inspectorate has also been inspected!

Now, in those places where the New Deal is implemented, most of the officials are good, and some capable officials can be promoted. This time, 20% of the officials from the four southern provinces will be transferred to Shanxi and Shaanxi. Therefore, , I still need to hurry up! "

After hearing this, Chen Xun looked at Wang Zhi in surprise. Chen Xun did not know about this matter. In other words, when His Majesty chooses officials, he will not discuss it with the cabinet!

The fact that the Marquis of Luling can agree to you means that he feels that you can still be saved, otherwise, he will definitely not agree to you!

However, I think you also know the virtues of your disciples, right? You also know the virtues of your own old subordinates! '

After hearing this, Wang Zhi smiled and drank tea from the cup!

After hearing this, Chen Xun was silent!

He waited until Wang Zhi put the tea cup in front of him before he nodded and said: "I'm in trouble this time. On the first day of the new year, I asked Lin Cunde to intercede for me in front of His Majesty. Lin Cunde has already agreed, but today I When I asked, he said he hadn’t had time to tell His Majesty yet!

Eh! This time I can understand your original mood!

When the dynasty begins, I don’t know how many impeachment memorials will be required to impeach me!

I'm probably doomed this time! "

However, when Wang Zhi said that he had prepared it in advance, maybe His Majesty had not given the order yet, so he said to Wang Zhi: "I came here because I want to talk to you. Yesterday, Your Majesty stayed at the Luling Marquis Mansion again. One day, you didn’t ask, what did His Majesty and the Marquis of Luling talk about?”

Wang Zhi waved his hand and said: "Since he promised you, there is no problem. No matter whether it works or not, he will definitely give you an answer, so don't guess, you can't guess it either!

Chen Xun raised his hands to Wang Zhi and said, "I'm sorry for what happened before!"

"No time!" Wang Zhi waved his hand and said, then he got up from the desk and went to the tea table, ready to make tea!

"Aren't you curious?" Chen Xun looked at Wang Zhi incomprehensibly. After all, Wang Zhi was also the chief minister. He was in charge of the staff department. Wang Zhi didn't pay attention to such an important matter?

"If you're not curious, the matter that your Majesty went to discuss with Marquis of Luling must be a major matter, and it is related to national policy. In addition, it is also related to the direction of policy this year or in the next few years. How could Marquis of Luling reveal such news? So asking is in vain! Instead of thinking so hard about such things, I might as well handle the matters in my hands properly!" Wang Zhi shook his head with a smile while making tea.

When the tree falls, the hozens will scatter. When did you miss these words? It doesn't matter if they scatter. I'm afraid someone will add insult to injury. If so, you are in danger!

I didn't take any money from them at the beginning. I just agreed to my friends' request and had to help. But you are different. Many of your things are known to your subordinates. Once they say something wrong about you in front of His Majesty, then you will It’s troublesome, so you’d better be careful about this!

Lin Cunde is here to help you, but you have to save yourself. Even if His Majesty spares you this time, the matter is not over yet. Whether he really spares you depends on your next performance. If you still do this , I am afraid that your end will be much worse than mine. I have overcome the difficulties this time, but you may not be able to do so now!

You, you really care about those so-called disciples. What are those disciples for? They can only do bad things. Like me, I don’t care about those disciples at all now. Everything is done according to their abilities. If there is potential, I will not hesitate to help. If there is no potential, then prepare to be transferred to other unimportant places. These Space needs to be freed up!

Therefore, Your Majesty is very satisfied with what I am doing now!

But what do you do next? What can you do to make His Majesty trust you and forgive your previous mistakes?

Also, I would like to remind you, don’t think that Your Majesty dare not kill people. Every autumn, Your Majesty seduces people a lot. His Majesty’s methods are also very sharp against those corrupt officials!

You think that His Majesty is easy to talk to just because He talks kindly to you every day, then you are totally wrong. Lin Cunde is always cautious when facing His Majesty, let alone us!

It's your own idea anyway, right? In fact, I have already reminded you of everything that should be reminded. The rest is up to you to make up your own mind! Don't expect me to give you a hand when the time comes, I won't dare! Wang Zhi said as he poured tea for Chen Xun, and at the same time smiled and said: "You must be careful about this matter, don't be careless, and think carefully about what to do in the future!" After hearing this, Chen Xun smiled bitterly and said, "I don't know if I can get through this now, or later?" "

"That's true!" Wang Zhi actually nodded. Chen Xun looked at Wang Zhi nodding, feeling even more depressed in his heart!

Then he thought about Jiang Yuan, so he said to Wang Zhi: "Once I go down, Jiang Yuan will definitely be the chief minister of the cabinet. By then, he will be more powerful than me, and he will be as powerful as me." , trying to find ways to limit His Majesty’s power, so replacing me at this time is not a wise move!”

When Wang Zhi heard this, he looked up at Chen Xun, then lowered his head and drank tea!

"Your officials will definitely support Jiang Yuan! The Ministry of Household Affairs and the Ministry of Works will probably support Jiang Yuan. When the time comes, Jiang Yuan's influence will be greater than mine, and it may not be beneficial to His Majesty!" Chen Xun was sitting there There, he stared at Wang Zhi and said.

When Wang Zhi heard this, he knew what Chen Xun meant, but at the same time he sneered and said, "I say Mr. Chen Ge, do you think I can be the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel for the rest of my life? Or do you think that the Ministry of Personnel will not be able to function without me?" Can’t get up? Agreed. Without you, Mr. Chen Ge, in the cabinet, the cabinet will fall. Your Majesty will have no way to handle the affairs of the state!

Mr. Chen Ge, don’t take yourself so seriously. Sometimes, it’s really not that important!

As for Jiang Yuan’s future? Is it what you and I have to worry about? In the court, there are so many ministers, so many nobles, and Your Majesty. Naturally, some people will be worried about this matter. Why should you and I worry about it?

You, just think about your own affairs. Sometimes other things are really not that important!

Since I stopped seeing those disciples, I feel that people have become much more relaxed and have time to think about things!

Those disciples were noisy in the mansion before, looking at the blooming flowers, but who could have imagined that there were many crises behind them!

Now, there are no more flowers, no more crisis, everything is calm, I think it is good and comfortable! "

After hearing this, Chen Xun just looked at Wang Zhi, and after a while, he sighed: "You are right, I have experienced this recently!"

"Well, it would be nice to have some experience. Is this what you want to talk to me about when you come here this time? If it's just this, I may not have so much time here. I need to prepare it as soon as possible!" Wang Zhi was ready to see off the guests. , how could it be that he and Chen Xun had nothing to say!

But he hasn't broken his skin yet, and Wang Zhi couldn't do something that would add insult to injury. Therefore, Chen Xun asked for a meeting, and Wang Zhi let him in. If Chen Xun was still in power today, Wang Zhi would not let him in!

"Well, when will you go to the Luling Marquis Mansion?" Chen Xun pretended not to understand, but continued to ask Wang Zhi. In fact, he knew that Wang Zhi didn't like him very much!

"I can go if I want to. If I don't want to go, I won't go. There are no rules. Besides, Luling Marquis Xijing, if there is nothing important, I really don't want to go!" Wang Zhi waved to Chen Xun and said.

"You'd better go there. Please ask for me when the time comes. When will he talk to His Majesty and plead for me? The Marquis of Luling doesn't want to see me now!" Chen Xun stared at Wang Zhi and said.

After Wang Zhi heard this, he looked at Chen Xun, and Chen Xun also looked at Wang Zhi!

"Okay, if I go, I can help you ask!" Wang Zhi finally said helplessly!

Chen Xun also stood up and wanted to say goodbye!

In Lin Cunde's house, it was rare for Lin Cunde to lie down in the study and read with a book!

Unknowingly, it was the day of Dachao, and Lin Cunde was also going to Dachao. Dachao actually did not have so many important things!

After going to court, Lin Cunde was going to the Queen Mother's Palace to ask the Queen Mother if she had time!

But according to what Lin Cunde knew, he probably didn't have time. During this period, the princesses were crying in front of the Empress Dowager every day!

Moreover, now the ministers also know that Zhu Qiyu actually asked the vassal kings to hand over all the land, and also stipulated the land that princes and princes could own!

When this news spread, the civil and military officials of the entire court were shocked. No one expected that Zhu Qiyu would be so mean to those princes. Moreover, they were also curious about what kind of thunderous methods Zhu Qiyu used to make those princes Hand over those lands!
