If Emperor Jiajing had the intention of killing him, he should be held high, but he has not done so now. Just looking at the rewards for him, there is a kind of tempering him, and he wants to leave him to the next emperor. mean.

However, upon reflection, that's not exactly the case.

Although he was not promoted in the official position, his title was promoted to first-class Yang Linhou.Moreover, Ma Fang did not let Ma Fang stay in the cabinet in order to check and balance himself, as Luo Xin speculated, but let Ma Fang serve as Minister of the Ministry of War.The Minister of the Ministry of War is also in charge of military power. From this point of view, Emperor Jiajing is using Ma Fang to check and balance himself. For Emperor Jiajing's unconstrained style, Luo really has a little fear in his confidence.

Another change is that the Minister of the Ministry of Officials was changed, and Zou Yinglong was actually appointed as the Minister of the Ministry of Officials.In the past few months at the border, Luo Xin has hardly been in the territory of Ming Dynasty, and has been leading troops across the grassland to clear obstacles on the grassland for Zhong Jinhatun.So when he was suddenly transferred back to the capital and met Zhou Yu and the others, he realized that the life of his brothers was really hard, and the situation in the court and China was also developing in a direction that Luo Xin did not want to see.

After Zou Yinglong served as Minister of the Ministry of Officials, he took charge of the encyclopedia of the Ministry of Officials, that is, the encyclopedia of official promotion.He is Xu Jie's loyal buddy. In the past, Xu Jie wanted to control the promotion of officials, and there was still Guo Pu, the Minister of the Ministry of Officials, but now the Minister of the Ministry of Officials was replaced by Zou Yinglong, which was equivalent to the complete control of the Ministry of Officials by Xu Jie.Moreover, Xu Jie didn't need to fight in person, and went into the battle shirtless. As long as he had something in mind, Zou Yinglong would take the lead and give Xu Jie room to maneuver.

So in these few months, Xu Jie gradually took control of the government and gained the upper hand in the competition with Gao Gong.After gaining the upper hand in the competition with Gao Gong, the first thing Xu Jie did was to use Zou Yinglong to start making things difficult for the Jinyang Nine Heroes. Luo Xin was no longer in the capital, and Zhou Yu's eight troubled brothers were in trouble.Others are fine, they are still studying in the Hanlin Academy, and they will not be officials, nor will they be assessed by the Ministry of Officials, but Zhou Yu, Zhang Xun, and Luo Zhi participated in the compilation of "Yuan History". It has been edited, but Xu Jie first took it away, and then criticized it severely, saying that the compilation was a mess, and asked them to re-edit it. If there is no improvement, the official department will give them a bad review.

The second thing is that Xu Jie reached into the southeast.

The two major troubles of Ming Dynasty, one is the northern grasslands, and the other is the southeast Japanese pirates.

Now that the northern war has been resolved, it has to be said that in this northern war, not only did Xu Jie not have the slightest contribution, but he was also humiliated.It would have dealt a great blow to Xu Jie's reputation. If Emperor Jiajing hadn't been supporting Xu Jie for some unknown reason, Emperor Jiajing would have accepted Xu Jie's proposals. Xu Jie would have been pushed aside by Gao Gong long ago.Therefore, Xu Jie was very anxious. If he wanted to regain his reputation, he had to do something that would impress the government and the public.The only ones who can barely be compared with the war in the north are the Japanese pirates in the southeast.

And he had a chance, thinking that Hu Zongxian in the southeast had been doing nothing, and the southeast was still corrupt, so Xu Jie thought about replacing Hu Zongxian with his own people, fighting a beautiful battle in the southeast, and letting the world know that Daming is not just Luo Xinhui Strategizing and decisively winning thousands of miles, he Xu Jie can do it too.

However, Luo Xin knew very well that Hu Zongxian was suspected of raising soldiers to be self-respecting before, but since Yan Song's downfall, Hu Zongxian has no backer, and he no longer dares to raise soldiers to be self-respecting, and he has indeed won several battles recently.

To say that Hu Zongxian is also a hard-working person, Emperor Jiajing originally trained him as the chief assistant of the cabinet, and kept mobilizing him to take up various official positions, but he refused to be promoted, which gave people a kind of suppression Hu Zongxian's feeling, and the headstrong Emperor Jiajing didn't tell Hu Zongxian his own thoughts. He believed that a qualified cabinet chief assistant must have that understanding and realize it by himself.

but……

Hu Zongxian just didn't realize it, and gradually lost patience, and finally defected to Yan Song.Not long after this poor child took refuge with Yan Song, Yan Song was completely overthrown by Luo Xin.

However, there is no one in Ming Dynasty who knows more about Japanese pirates than Hu Zongxian. The best way is for Emperor Jiajing to talk with Hu Zongxian from the bottom of his heart, and let Hu Zongxian take the initiative to fight against Japanese pirates.But it was difficult for the proud Emperor Jiajing.Then the medium policy should also be to force Hu Zongxian to fight, and the only bad policy is to replace Hu Zongxian.

Once Hu Zongxian is replaced, no matter who is sent, a person who is not familiar with the southeast will inevitably cause chaos, and the Japanese pirates will inevitably become rampant again. Daming seems to have just defeated the grassland and looks powerful, but in fact it is already riddled with holes. Can't stand the toss.It is very likely that because of the southeast corner, it will cause turmoil in the entire Ming Dynasty.

In doing so, Yu Gong and Xu Jie will plunge Daming into chaos.

Personally, Luo Xin was not willing to let Xu Jie suppress him like this.

But how to break the situation?

Luo Xin was also very sad in his heart, Emperor Jiajing's mind was unclear, and Luo Xin knew that he was now so powerful that he couldn't move easily.

The only thing that made him gratified was that after several months of hard work, although Zhong Jinhatun hadn't unified the grassland yet, it had become one of the biggest forces in the grassland.

While thinking about it, he returned to his yard, came to the wing room, opened the door, and saw Zhou Yu and others sitting around the table, and when they saw Luo Xin coming in, they all laughed.Zhou Yu got up and came to Luo Xin, hooked his shoulders and said:

"No, you forget your friends when you see sex!"

Zhang Xun also stood up and said, "Three cups of wine are fined."

"It must be punished!" Everyone also stood up, booing at Luo Xin together.

"Admit the punishment, accept the punishment!"

Luo Xin walked to the table, opened three wine cups, poured three cups of wine, then picked them up and drank them all.

"it is good!"

Everyone shouted for a while, and then everyone sat down and started chatting.Now that everyone has entered the officialdom, naturally the content of the conversation will soon involve the officialdom.

Luo Zhi is the oldest here, and he has no scruples in speaking in front of the younger generation.

"The situation in the court has been changing in the past few months! The Ministry of Officials has surveyed [-] provinces in the south and north, and has dismissed more than [-] people above the fourth rank for crimes such as old age, illness, incompetence, and greed. official."

Yun Zhiqiu sighed and said: "Isn't it the same in the capital city? The capital city plus local officials, regardless of their grades, add up to nearly 400 people who were punished, and almost all of them were from the Xu Party. Mr. Gao Gong almost They were all cornered."
