Chapter 882 Jiajing Summons
Xu Jie sighed and said, "Gao Gong didn't do this at all."

"Ah?" Zhang Juzheng opened his mouth wide, and said half aloud, "Who did that?"

"Who do you think will get such detailed evidence?"

A bright light flashed in Zhang Juzheng's eyes: "Luo Xin?"

Xu Jie nodded.

Zhang Juzheng lowered his head, at this moment, he really looked down on Xu Jie.If he hadn't targeted Luo Xin at the beginning, how could he have become enemies with Luo Xin?
At that time, Luo Xin was just a scholar, you, Xu Jie, were superior, so why push people too far?

If he hadn't made enemies with Luo Xin at that time, but instead helped Lu Tingfang, then Luo Xin might have entered the door of Xinxue, and might have become Xu Jie's student.This is a general of Xinxue harvest.Still afraid of Gao Gong at this time?
"What a bad move!" Zhang Juzheng cursed inwardly.

Xu Jie didn't know what Zhang Juzheng was thinking, so he said in deep thought: "The matter of Zhang Shijie is irreversible, what we want to do now is how to deal with Luo Xin. We must fight back, otherwise the court officials will think that I, Xu Jie, control the court. Tang's ability has declined, so they will gather around Gao Gong, this is not the result that the old man wants to see."

Zhang Juzheng took a deep breath. He also knew that what Xu Jie said was completely correct. At this time, he had to fight back, and the harder the counterattack, the better. Otherwise, once all the officials thought that Xu Jie was going to die, this would be the most terrible result. .

but……

Like Xu Jie, he has the feeling that a tiger bites a hedgehog and has nowhere to bite.

The two discussed for a long time in the study, Zhang Juzheng left with a face full of confusion, while Xu Jie in the study relaxed.

Day two.

Luo Xin still went to Zhan Shi's mansion, sat in the room drinking tea, shook his head while drinking tea, and sighed.

This Zhan Shi Mansion is now so desolate that grass grows!

After drinking tea slowly, he wandered back home.When it was close to noon, Luo Xin was preparing to eat when he saw a small official from Zhan Shi's mansion come to the mansion.

"Lord Luo, why don't you go to Zhan Shifu immediately?"

"What's the matter?" Luo Xin looked at the little official in puzzlement. He really didn't know this little official, so he could be sure that he was not on Zuo Shuzi's side, and he was under his jurisdiction, so he asked:
"you are?"

"I'm from the right concubine's side. Today, Mr. Qu, the official official, came to Zhan Shi's mansion for inspection. Seeing that Zhan's mansion was almost deserted, he became furious and asked the people from Mr. Luo's side to report to Zuo concubine immediately. "

Luo Xin frowned slightly, keenly noticed the difference, and asked softly:
"You mean the left concubine under my jurisdiction?"

"Yes!" The little official nodded.

"Where are Xima and Shuzi You?"

"Master Qu went directly to the Left Concubine's side, and did not go to the Xima and Right Concubine's side. However, at this time, the officials from Xima and You Shuzi's side should also be called back, in case Master Qu inspects."

"All my people have gone back?"

"They should have already gone back, I was sent to find you."

After pondering for a moment, Luo Xin knew that this should be Xu Jie's counterattack.Xu Jie should have targeted Gao Gong in the matter of joining forces between himself and Hu Zongxian.However, Gao Gong will never allow himself to be scapegoated.Once Gao Gong brought this matter to light, Xu Jie would quickly lock himself in.

"Lord Luo..." Seeing that Luo Xin didn't respond, the little official urged.

Luo Xin hasn't sorted things out yet, so naturally he won't rush there.That lord Libu Qu is just a servant of the Ministry of Officials, and he and Luo Xin are both fourth grade.But one is in the official department and the other is in Zhan Shifu.The status of Mr. Qu is naturally higher than that of Luo Xin.

However, even so, Luo Xin didn't want to just go there and be scolded by that Master Qu.If so, face will be completely lost.In officialdom, if someone loses face and there is no effective counterattack, everyone will step on it in the future.The reputation that was so hard to raise is gone. In the officialdom, without the reputation, it is difficult to move an inch.So he waved his hands and said:

"Go back first, I'll be there later."

"Lord Luo, you..."

"Go back and tell Master Qu, if you want to wait for me, just wait. If you don't want to wait, you can leave."

"Lord Luo, you..."

"Go back and tell the truth, you can put the blame on me, Master Qu won't embarrass you."

"OK then!"

The little official bid farewell to Luo Xin with a disheartened face.Luo Xin greeted the servants to serve the meal, thinking while eating.

Obviously, Xu Jie wanted to take revenge on himself.But why use this least powerful method?

Everyone knows about Zhan Shifu, what kind of government office is Zhan Shifu without a prince?It is normal for Zhan Shifu's people to skip work, and it would be strange if the staff is neat.Even if Xu Jie caught him one by one, so what?

If he dismissed all the dozens of officials of Zuo Shuzi, it would only result in two results.

The first result is that the government and the public will have opinions on Xu Jie, and even if Gao Gong is willing to push, it will cause Xu Jie to be isolated.Because everyone knows that the officials of Zhan Shifu are a bunch of poor people.As the saying goes, you can't bully people too much, those officials are already at the bottom, and they don't pose a threat to others, they are just a bunch of bitter people.You, Xu Jiegui, are the chief assistant of the cabinet, instead of fighting Gao Gong, you are targeting a group of poor bitter people. This has no bottom line.Who would dare to work with such a person?If you don't isolate him, who will you isolate?
The second result is that it is not easy to finish. You, Xu Jie, have dismissed dozens of officials from Zuo Shuzi, but you have to fill in officials, right?Otherwise, how to explain to Emperor Jiajing?
but……

Is anyone willing to come?
No one was willing to come before, but now that you, Xu Jie, are attacking Zhan Shifu, who else would dare to come?
I'm afraid that by that time, no one would dare to come to Zhan Shifu even if he resigned.

This made Xu Jie unable to get off the tiger and became a big joke.

Therefore, Luo Xin concluded that no matter how far the gaffe progressed, Xu Jie would not dare to dismiss anyone in Zhan Shifu's office.

So what did he go to all this trouble for?
Is there no other way to beat yourself up?
Luo Xin thought about it seriously, finished a bowl of rice, drank another bowl of chicken soup, and then laughed.This laughter couldn't be stopped, the laughter became louder and louder, and it took a full ten breaths of time before the laughter stopped.Because he suddenly discovered that Xu Jie really had no way to deal with him.Now that he has been left idle in Zhan Shifu, what else can he do?

The most important thing is that Xu Jie didn't dare to let Luo Xin out.So he came up with this method.

So, does this approach work?

Rossin sighed.
