Chasing King

Yan Si fancies to discuss with Yan Zilian about the assessment of Feng Jianping, but this time Yan Zilian is not normal. He says that he is busy with official business and has no time to see him.

At first, he thought Yan Zilian was really busy, but after two or three times, he realized that Yan Zilian was deliberately avoiding.

Yan Sikong thought about it for a day. He guessed Yan Zilian's intention, but he didn't know. So he just spent the morning looking for Yan Zilian. He went to Wenyuan pavilion to visit him.

In order to avoid suspicion, Yan Sikong hasn't come to wenyuange to find Yan Zilian for a long time, but if he doesn't, he won't face Yan Zilian at all.

Yan Zilian was not surprised to see him. He just nodded: "come in with me."

As soon as she entered the room, Yan Sikong said, "the teacher is avoiding the students? Did the student do anything wrong? "

"Can't you really guess why I'm avoiding you?" Yan Zilian stares at Yan Sikong without blinking.

Yan Sikong took a deep breath: "but I'm afraid I'll come to you about King Jingyuan? "

"I wish you knew."

"Teacher..."

"Don't say much." Yan Zilian waved his hand, "this grand plan of Beijing inspection is the great plan of the country. It has been more than 200 years since the emperor Taizu. Now there is no war in Datong, and the general Feng does not return to Beijing to report his work. That is to say, it is obvious to all that the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty are all there. What do you want me to do?"

Yan Sikong bowed and bowed, and his tone became gentle: "teacher, there were dozens of tribes in Mongolia, big and small. In the past, there were Wala zunda, but they could still contain each other. Now Wala is declining. These tribes are likely to regroup and continue to invade the border. There is no war in Datong, but they are still in crisis."

"Sikong..."

"This is one of them." Yan Sikong interrupted Yan Zilian, "teacher, listen to the students. Second, the teacher and I know very well that King Jingyuan will not return to Beijing. If we force him to return to Beijing, or even urge him to do so, I'm afraid it's the last thing the teacher wants to see. "

Yan Zilian said in a deep voice, "do you want to say that general Feng will fight back?"

"The students dare not say it." Yan Sikong said, "students don't know how King Jingyuan will deal with it."

Yan Zilian stroked his beard and said, "did Fengye tell you that general Feng would never return to Beijing?"

"It still needs to be said by Shizi. If King Jingyuan didn't leave, that would be the answer."

Yan Zilian narrowed his eyes.

"Third..." Yan Sikong stares at Yan Zilian. He guesses that the following words are what Yan Zilian wants to hear: "with King Jingyuan, you can restrain the eunuchs and make them worry. Otherwise, they will disturb the world."

Yan Zilian slowly picked up the cup at hand and took a sip of tea: "that's reasonable, but general Feng is both the commander in chief and governor. He controls the military and political affairs of Datong. He has 300000 troops and is only 600 li away from Beijing. How long do you think his majesty can accommodate him? If he refuses to return to Beijing this time to report on his work, won't it make it difficult for him to sit and stand? "

"If he returns to Beijing to report on his work." Yan Sikong looked directly into Yan Zilian's eyes, his eyes burning, "what will happen?"

Yan Zilian pursed her lips, without words.

"The three generations of the family are loyal and good, and the heart of serving the country can be learned from the sun and the moon. Does the teacher also distrust the king of Jingyuan?"

Yan Zilian said earnestly: "Sikong, I am the Prime Minister of a country. How can I judge things by my personal likes and dislikes? General Feng has a lot of troops, but he always wants to protect himself. For many years, he has been trying to castrate the party and the people. Of course, in the past, Wala was very powerful, and he was far away from Datong. Even if he had the intention, he was powerless. But now that Wala is broken, how can general Feng sit back and ignore it? "

Yan Si hollow thought, he guessed right, what Yan Zilian wanted was Feng Jianping for his own use! He said in a deep voice: "the students thought that King Jingyuan did not sit back and ignore me. Just as the teacher said, he was powerless. For example, this time the crown prince was sent to prison unjustly. Although he was the son that the students went to ask for, he would not be able to accept me without king Jingyuan's Secret instruction. Feng's family would certainly help the crown prince."

"Behind the scenes?" Yan Zilian said slowly, "how can we let the masses know that the prince has the help of 300000 soldiers of Datong? Although Wen Yuchi has retired temporarily, Xie Zhongren is still in the government and the public, and Wen Guifei is still in favor. The position of the crown prince is still in the mirror, and may be destroyed at any time. I am afraid that in the long run, more people will turn to the castration party. "

Yan Sikong took a cool breath and said in a low voice: "what the teacher said It's in reason. " The last time he had a secret talk with Yan Zilian, he had heard Yan Zilian's dissatisfaction with Feng Jianping's philosophy and self-protection, but he had nothing to do in the past. Now Yan Zilian has seized the opportunity of jingcha. As the first assistant of the cabinet, he is the only one who can turn the matter into a minor matter, but he also gave his own conditions - to let Feng Jianping stand in the aristocratic school.

Yan Sikong never dared to underestimate his teacher. Forty years ago, Yan Zilian was also the number one scholar in Jinke. With his eagle like acumen and excellent skill, he went all the way to the cabinet and squeezed out all the cabinet officials in front of him. He had been the first assistant for more than ten years. He fought with the eunuch party and managed the country well After several years of pretending in front of Zi Lian, Bai MI was always spared. Yan Zi Lian saw his attitude towards Fengye and Fengjia.Yan Zilian took advantage of this and played an extremely sharp move. He recalled all kinds of things that Jing Cha had done up to now, and could not even judge when Yan Zilian began to plan to use Jing Cha to force Feng Jianping to stand in the team. Jiang was still very old, and he only felt cold in his back.

Yan Zilian glanced at Yan Sikong. Seeing that he was pale, he softened his tone: "Sikong, I'm an old teacher. I don't know when the deadline will come. I can't leave the eunuch party to continue to corrode my country. I just want to get rid of the harm for the country and let the prince sit in the throne. This is a big matter. I can't succeed without the help of the general."

Yan Sikong secretly clenched his teeth: "students understand, students will convey the truth."

Yan Zilian nodded with satisfaction.

When Yan Sikong left Wenyuan Pavilion, he was still shivering with cold when he saw the sun outside.

Feng Jianping doesn't want to get involved in the party struggle because his military power is too conspicuous. He needs to keep a low profile everywhere to protect himself. However, the current of the situation has been wrapping everyone forward. As Yan Zilian said, it is impossible for Feng Jianping to stay out of the affair.

Yan Sikong also didn't want the Fengs to participate in the party struggle because it was too dangerous. Originally, the Fengs were wise enough to protect themselves. No matter who ascended the throne in the future, the Fengs would continue to guard the frontier for the new emperor. But once they got out of the water, they would have to drown each other alive to get ashore safely.

What Yan Zilian wanted was to drag the sword flat into the water and fight against the eunuch party with himself. I have to say that this step is extremely good, but it is the last thing he wants to see.

Yan Si stopped walking and couldn't help raising his head. The glare of the sun made him squint. He felt dizzy. With fear and worry, he kept drilling up from the sole of his feet. It seemed that he had to drill through all his limbs.

-

"this old fox!" Feng Ye's face was angry. He spread his arms and swept all the tea sets on the table to the ground.

Yan Sikong's face was also very ugly: "I've been asking to see him frequently these days, but he refused to see me, so I vaguely guessed..."

"What else did he say?"

"With regard to these, the intention is very obvious. Only when his highness makes a statement, will he mediate in the case of Beijing inspection."

Feng Ye bit his teeth: "Damn, now only he can help my father."

"That's right. Liu An has already asked him for help. His majesty will soon find out about it. If his Highness's music is played in the capital, it's in his heart and everything is under his control."

After arriving in Beijing, the local officials have to go to the cabinet first, and the cabinet officials give their opinions. Although the cabinet officials can't hold the music down, they can decide when to release it, especially the chief assistant. What can they do after a few days? But these days are enough for rumors to drown Jingyuan palace.

When Feng Jianping didn't leave for Beijing, the officials must be looking at him. Every day he dragged on, he was very dangerous. Yan Zilian saw this point, so he couldn't see Yan Sikong until they had no other way.

"Asshole..." Feng Ye said maliciously, "you are more insidious than the eunuch party! A few days ago, he conspired with us for a plan. Just a few days ago, he came up with the idea of closing my home

Yan Si said in a deep voice: "as I said, he is the first assistant of the cabinet. Everything is based on his family and country. It's really sinister for him to force his highness, but there's nothing wrong with it."

"What should we do now?" Feng Ye clenched his fist. "My father doesn't want to be involved in the party struggle."

Yan Sikong sighed: "Fengye, you should now draw up a letter, 800 Li urgent, and send it to your Highness for him to decide."

"Is there nothing you can do?" Feng Ye gritted his teeth and said, "aren't you the smartest?"

Yan Sikong shook his head wearily: "I'm only a small principal in the Ministry of officials, and Yan Zilian is my teacher. I really can't think of any other way." Before he met Fengye, he had thought hard for a long time and had no good plan. If fengjianping didn't want to bear the charges of "not being a minister" and "plotting a rebellion", he had to let the matter go smoothly. Now only Yan Zilian can do it.

Feng Ye holds his forehead. He also knows that there really seems to be no other way. He can't take the risk of refusing to return to the court. He is still in Beijing. Once something happens, the consequences will be unimaginable. He was silent for a long time before he said, "prepare the ink for me."

Yan Sikong personally grinds Feng Ye and spreads the paper.

Feng Ye sat in front of the letter and took a long time to write.

Yan Sikong looked at him quietly, at his locked eyebrows and worried eyes, and his heart was full of uneasiness.

After writing, Fengye took the letter into his arms. He looked at Yan Sikong and said, "if my father refuses to go back to court, what do you think will happen?"

Yan Sikong's eyes darkened: "Feng Ye, I don't want to make this guess."

Feng Ye did not ask, he stood up, eyes firm: "should come to hide, let my father decide."
