Tie Xuan smiled, quite curious as to where this stupid thief came from, and he actually took the initiative to send it to his door.
He nodded and said: "Then go and call someone over and let me see what's going on."
"yes."
Tie Xuan first took off his clothes, then drank tea quietly and waited.
When the servant came in with an old man, Tie Xuan subconsciously raised his head, but was instantly stunned.
Chen Di smiled lightly: "Dingshi, I haven't seen you for many years. How are you?"
Tie Xuan subconsciously put down the teacup, couldn't help but get up, and murmured to himself: "Really sir? Didn't you resign and go back to your hometown?"
Chen Di lowered his head and glanced at the chair.
Tie Xuan suddenly came to his senses and quickly stepped forward to salute, "Student Tie Xuan, I would like to pay my respects to you, sir. Please take your seat!"
Chen Di nodded with satisfaction, then walked to the upper seat and sat down, while Tie Xuan, as the master, stayed with him on one side.
"Quick, serve tea to sir!"
When the servant made another pot of tea and brought it over, Tie Xuan poured a cup for Chen Di and handed it to him.
He asked in confusion: "Why did you come to Jinan Mansion, sir?"
Chen Di picked up the tea, took a sip, and sighed: "???????????????Everyone in the world thought that I was resigning and returning to my hometown, but they didn't know that I didn't want to resign at all."
"Oh? Listen to what you are saying, sir. Is there some secret behind this?"
Chen Di nodded, and then became furious: "It's all because of that villain Han Du, who used his clever words and persuasion to confuse the emperor, so I had to resign!"
"This... the Duke of Zhen forced your husband to resign? Isn't this impossible!" Tie Xuan is also a person who thinks very highly of himself, and ordinary people can't stand him at all.
Looking at the entire Ming Dynasty, Han Du, the Duke of Zhenguo, was definitely a figure he could look up to. Not only because of the respected status of the Duke of Zhenguo, but also because of his many actions that benefit the country and the people.
Tie Xuan was impressed by the fact that he pushed hard for the sea ban. Since the Ming Dynasty lifted the sea ban, the spirit and spirit of the entire Ming Dynasty seemed to have undergone earth-shaking changes.
Countless fish catches and food come from overseas every year, which greatly makes up for the Ming Dynasty's food shortage. Even the people of Jinan Prefecture can have a bite of sea fish from time to time. This was something they could not even imagine before the sea ban was imposed.
If others say that they will exclude their colleagues, Tie Hyun might believe him. But Tie Xuan didn't really believe it even if Chen Di had taught him that the Zhenguo Guild was ostracizing Chen Di.
"What? You don't believe me?" Chen Di noticed the doubt in Tie Xuan's words, and his heart suddenly sank.
He never thought that Tie Xuan would rather trust someone he had never interacted with before than trusting him, his former husband.
Seeing that his husband was angry, Tie Xuan quickly waved his hands and explained: "No, no, no, sir, you misunderstood. It's not that the students don't believe you, it's just... is there any misunderstanding about this matter?"
Chen Di snorted and said coldly: "Is there any misunderstanding? Do you know how Qi Tai, Minister of War, died?"
Tie Xuan nodded doubtfully: "Qi Tai, wasn't it because he deliberately obstructed Jiayuguan's supply of grain and grass, which led to the defeat of Liang Guogong and his death, and the destruction of Jiayuguan, and then he was sentenced to death?"
"Hmph! What blocked the grain and grass at Jiayuguan Pass, which led to the defeat of Liang Guogong and the destruction of Jiayuguan Pass... This is just Han Du's one-sided statement! Moreover, Qitai was not sentenced to death at all. He was killed by Han Du. The Ministry of War killed him directly!"
"What!" Tie Xuan jumped up in shock. He couldn't believe his ears. "You can't believe it, can you? I can't believe it either!" Chen Di said coldly: "Even if the Minister of War is guilty, he will have to be tried by the three law divisions, and then the emperor will issue an order before execution can be carried out. He Why would Han Du kill a minister without any guilt?"
Tie Xuan's heart surged violently, and he nodded heavily.
This move was indeed Han Du's fault, and Tie Xuan naturally would not think that Han Du did the right thing.
When Chen Di saw it, his expression immediately softened.
Putting on a look of compassion, he sighed: "This is why I reported to the emperor, hoping that Han Du could be punished. But I didn't expect that the emperor's favor for Han Du would reach such an extent. Not only did he not punish Han Du, Instead, more than a hundred ministers will all resign!"
"This! This is impossible!" The news Tie Xuan heard tonight was more shocking than the last, and he almost doubted the authenticity of the news.
"This news is known to everyone in the entire capital. It's just that you are a little far away and it hasn't spread yet. Do I need to lie to you?"
Tie Xuan couldn't help but believe Chen Di's words, glanced in the direction of the capital, and sighed: "Your Majesty..."
He is a firm supporter of imperial power. Even if he knows that the emperor has made such a confused decision, he is unwilling to say these two words from his mouth.
Chen Di saw that the preparations were almost done, so he deliberately took this opportunity to curse angrily: "This has no sign of a wise king at all. Only a foolish king can do such a thing."
After hearing this, Tie Xuan looked at the gentleman with dissatisfaction and couldn't help but said: "Sir, what you said is inappropriate. The emperor is the emperor after all. Perhaps the emperor was just deceived for a moment."
Chen Di nodded heavily and echoed: "I also think that the emperor was deceived by Han Du. It's a shame that the emperor trusted him so much that I submitted an impeachment report to Han Du, but he was forced to resign! It's a shame that such a traitor can live in the temple openly. If If we cannot punish this traitor, I will never let go of my hatred!"
Tie Xuan opened his mouth, wanting to say that in his opinion, Han Du should not be such a person. But when I think about what my husband just said, I can't help but doubt Han Du's character.
While Tie Xuan was hesitating, Chen Ditu said with a sudden look: "Fortunately, there is still a wise master alive, so we still have hope."
"Huh?" Tie Xuan's eyes widened suddenly, his face darkened and he asked, "What do you mean, sir?"
"That's what I meant." At this time, Chen Di no longer concealed his purpose and showed his cards.
Tie Xuan stared closely into Chen Di's eyes: "The wise master you mentioned should be the emperor, right?"
"No!" Chen Di shook his head lightly and looked back at Tie Xuan with a smile.
"Sir, what do you mean by this?" Tie Xuan stood up suddenly, feeling a storm in his heart.
Chen Di said unabashedly: "His Royal Highness, King Yan, is extraordinary in martial arts. He is like Emperor Taizu and should be regarded as a wise master!"
boom!
A thunder exploded in Tie Xuan's mind, making his head buzz.
"You...King Yan want to rebel?"
"No!" Chen Di said with a slight smile as if he had a chance of winning: "It's the Qing emperor! Emperor Taizu once said in the "Huang Ming Ancestor Instructions": If there are no honest ministers in the court, and there are traitors, they will be punished with troops. Ask to clear your side."
"But now all the officials in the court are forced to resign, and the treacherous Han Du is in power. King Yan raises his troops to attack Han Du. This is in compliance with the will of Emperor Taizu, and it is justified!"
hiss! ! !
Tie Xuan couldn't help but be shocked by what Chen Di and King Yan did. He was not stupid and knew about Qing Junzhi, but he was just trying to find a reasonable reason for their rebellion.
But unfortunately, they really found it, and it came from Emperor Taizu's "Huang Ming Ancestral Instructions".
Tie Xuan took a deep look at Chen Di, lowered his head and asked in a solemn tone: "Then Mr. came to see the students today. Isn't he just passing by?"
"Of course not!" Chen Di said casually: "I arrived in Peiping more than two months ago, and now I am the Zuo Changshi of Prince Yan's Mansion."
"Ha...hehe..." Tie Xuan laughed inexplicably, and said coldly, "The student would like to congratulate you, sir. I see that your husband is not far away from becoming famous."
Chen Di was very proud. He was now the chief minister of Zuo of Prince Yan's palace. If he waited until Prince Yan took over the imperial capital, he would probably be the new chief minister of the cabinet. How could he not be happy?

"Then I don't know what the teacher wants from the students after traveling thousands of miles to find them?" Tie Xuan asked in a calm tone.
Chen Di didn't hear anything wrong and thought he had persuaded Tie Xuan. He nodded and said: "His Royal Highness the King of Yan raises the righteous soldiers to Qingjun's side, and everyone in the world will follow him. Daning Dusi, Shaanxi Dusi, Shaanxi Dusi, and Henan Dusi have all surrendered to the prince. If you can take the initiative to lead Shandong Dusi to surrender to the prince, I will definitely put in a good word for you in front of King Yan, and I will definitely let you take advantage of this! When the time comes, it will not be a problem to be promoted to an official position, a title, a wife, and a child!"
Tie Xuan was shocked. He knew that his husband might be exaggerating in order to make him obey. But he knew that since Mr. said this, it at least meant that their purpose was to capture these capitals.
Daning, Shaanxi, Shanxi, Henan, and if Beiping and Shandong are added to this, then half of the northern half of the country will fall into the hands of King Yan.
"How about it?" Chen Di urged slightly.
The reason why Chen Di came to persuade Tie Xuan was because although Tie Xuan was only a political participant, there was no chief envoy in Shandong, which meant that Tie Xuan actually had the final say in Shandong.
Tie Xuan pretended to be embarrassed and said: "Sir, the student and his family are in Dengzhou..."
Chen Di immediately understood what Tie Xuan meant, that is, he had family members in Dengzhou, and he didn't know whether what Chen Di just said was true or false. If it's true, that's fine. If it's false, then once he agrees, won't his family members in Dengzhou be in danger?
Chen Di laughed: "It doesn't matter, I understand your concerns. In that case, how about I send someone to send your family members from Dengzhou to Jinan?"
"Thank you sir!" Tie Xuan bowed suddenly.
Chen Di left happily and sent someone to Dengzhou to pick up Tie Xuan's family members.
After Chen Di left, Tie Xuan slumped on the chair weakly.
Benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom, faith...etc. kept coming back and forth in his mind, but within a moment, Tie Xuan made up his mind.
He stood up suddenly, rubbed ink with his own hands, and immediately wrote down the news that King Yan was rebelling, and that several governors might rebel.
Blow dry the ink, fold it and seal it with oil paper.
"Somebody come!"
"Master, please give me your instructions."
"Go and find Tieli."
"yes."
After a while, a thin, but very grateful man walked in. The most peculiar thing about this person is his pair of eyes that are moving and moving, which has an aura of agility.
"Master, are you looking for me?" Tie Lipi smiled and bowed.
