"Haha, of course I also serve the country and the people. Besides, why don't I get used to this?"
Shen Shixing looked at Shen Yiguan, who had become lazy again, and sneered: "What a person who serves the country and the people! What a person who serves the country and the people! But the truth is that he only sees the four words 'Party agrees and opposes differences'!"
Shen Yiguan's face showed a smile that made Shen Shixing extremely disgusted. The bachelor admitted: "Yes. If you can't rise to the top and become the prime minister, how can you shake the emperor's heart and bring order to chaos?" Then his face turned slightly red and he choked. He said, "If the prime minister doesn't have this thought in his heart, as long as he has a copy of the reference, he will either confiscate his house or be exiled. Why bother asking me here?"
The two people in the room fell into silence because of these shameless words. If we say shameless, Shen Shixing and Shen Guanyuan have said more shameless things than this; but because the two of them are not very familiar with each other, this sentence makes both the speaker and the listener feel embarrassed, as if they were naked in front of strangers. Exposed.
After another moment of silence, Shen Shixing asked, "I have something unclear and would like to ask Jiaomen for advice."
Shen Yiguan's expression returned to normal, he cupped his hands and said, "I'm ashamed to be a lowly official, but please ask, Prime Minister."
Shen Shixing looked directly into his eyes and said: "Although the Holy Family has declined in recent years, it cannot be defeated easily - why is Jiaomen targeting me?"
Shen Yiguan cupped his hands and said with a smile: "How can a young minister who has only been in office dare to serve as a chariot for a mantis? I only heard about this announcement - because I have some problems with the prime minister, I came here specifically to ask for an audience. However, Now it seems that a hot face is stuck in a cold butt, haha."
Although Shen Shixing looked down on Shen Yiguan as a person, he admired his courage when he saw him talk freely. He pondered for a moment and asked: "The case of uncovering the poster has nothing to do with you?"
Shen, always serious, pointed to the sky and swore poisonously: "If you lower your official position and conspire with me - I will be struck by lightning from the sky, and you will not die a good death!"
"Then what's your intention in trying to move Zou Yuanbiao?"
Shen always didn't answer.
Although Shen Shixing was full of doubts, seeing that he didn't answer, there was nothing he could do. He could only continue to ask: "Even if you are lucky enough to succeed, can Zou Yuanbiao do anything about the true nature of this chapter?"
"The prime minister is just here in the mountains. The decline of your holy family must be in the twelfth year of Wanli. There were many major events in that year, and the death of Prince Zhongxing was one of them. Before that, the Prime Minister of Shuntian Prefecture must show up. Put yourself—"
While he was talking, he went to see Shen Shixing. But seeing Shen Shixing's eyes shining brightly, looking directly at him for a moment, as if he was not the one who colluded with Zhang Cheng and used the excavation case to plot against Zhang Siwei, Shen Yiguan couldn't help but feel a little convinced in his heart.
Shen Shixing clenched his hands tightly in his sleeves, trying his best not to reveal even the slightest flaw. Seeing that Shen Yiguan had stopped talking, he only showed a hint of confusion and said: "Han Bixian burned himself to death. What happened? What does it have to do with my holy family?"
Seeing him like this, Shen Guanyi showed a look of astonishment and said: "There are rumors that Qiu Xizi was executed and Shao Cheng, the former head of the Criminal Department, was arrested. He first gave the instructions of "Second Assistant" and later said "Shang Shu of the Ministry of Rites" , Hasn’t the Prime Minister not heard of it? - Yes, no one who is short-sighted will tell you in front of you, at that time everyone thought he was biting randomly. "
Then he smiled and said: "Everyone said that the Miyun excavation case was directed at Mr. Zhang Siwei. The Prime Minister had not yet joined the cabinet at that time, how could he be so overestimating his own capabilities." When Shen Shixing heard this, he felt The blood on the soles of my feet rushed to the top of my head.
Shen Shixing's face turned red and white, but Shen Yiguan said as if he didn't realize it: "Shao Cheng was just a solitary witness, and he did bite randomly later - but what if the emperor believed it? In the past three years, you have been easily blamed. Haven’t you found the reason yet?”
"That's nonsense!" Shen Shixing stood up and angrily shouted: "Why has the Prime Minister ever been so easily offended?! How do you and other subordinates know what's going on in the political hall? You talk nonsense every day based on hearsay, and it's a thousand-mile fallacy!"
"Yes, lower officials are the most ignorant. But I wonder what Zhao Xian, the former minister of the Ministry of Rites, the most proud and 'most qualified' governor of Zhongxing County, and today's minister of the Ministry of Punishment, told Han Bixian at that time?"
In the calm winter night, Shen Shixing felt like a thunder sounded in his ears. His face suddenly turned pale, his body became stiff, and his knees fell softly into the chair. The most terrifying nightmare he had had for three years finally jumped into reality, freezing his heart.
Shen Yiguan didn't seem to notice his gaffe, and continued: "It's ridiculous that Han Bixian still visited King Jin on the day of his death. In the twelfth year of Jiajing, the entire line of King Jin was extinct; in the third year of Wanli, the line of King Kang of Jin was also extinct. , wasn’t it because Zhu Minchun was young that he was granted the title of hereditary prince?”
"Without the care of the Ningjiang Wang family, there is no telling whether Zhu Minchun could have grown up safely. He was no more than 10 years old and his hair had not even grown, so he became blinded by the sand."
"Han Bixian met Zhang Cheng at Yang Wei's house, right? Do you need to tell me the rest?"
Shen Shixing's face was pale, but his breathing had gradually stabilized with Shen Yiguan's slightly proud words. He only showed a wry smile and said: "Jiaomen, do you all think that the 'robbery case' was committed by a certain person? In order to deal with Zhang Siwei, who is about to become the Prime Minister. ?”
"Where do you start talking about 'you'? I, Shen, have always been neither party nor group. I am just some like-minded comrades exchanging news together."
"What do you want to do when I tell you this to the Prime Minister today? If you can't stand it, I will have a judge come to prove my innocence in this chapter." Shen Shixing said coldly without realizing that his thumb had pinched the palm of his hand to draw blood.
"A dignified and dignified prime minister has his own dignity. Even if the emperor knows about the connection between you and Zhang Cheng, won't he still keep you to 'stir up different opinions'? It is a useless move, and I despise it. Besides, we comrades also We need a 'time-saving prime minister' like Mr. Yaoquan to save the people and save the building from collapse."
Shen Yiguang's eyes suddenly showed enthusiasm: "Now the imperial court does not rest with the people. It expands from the west to the north, and from the south to the east. The national power is empty; in Northeast Myanmar, countless refugees have died on the road; newspaper mouthpieces are all advocating for the reform. , although the public opinion was fierce, the gentry followed the road; although the moral tradition existed, it was already riddled with holes; everything was realistic, but heroes were judged by "money and food"; the morals of the people were ruined, and filial piety was lost - all of this was the chaos of the Zhongxing County Prince. It’s because of the law.”
"Although he was tortured severely and punished by severe laws, he has been dead for three years! The Chu Party has been split and the general trend has been dispersed. It is time to bring order to the chaos!"
"Why don't you, Prime Minister, join us in our ambition to bring a bright future to the world?"
Shen Shixing's eyes were glazed over. He looked at Shen Yiguan, who had a ferocious face, and his face was as pale as a piece of white paper. Just at this moment, the grandfather clock suddenly sounded "dang, dang". When Shen Shixing looked at it, it was already ten o'clock in the evening.
Shen Shixing, who came back to his senses due to the sound of the bell, did not directly answer Shen Yiguan's suggestion. He just asked in an emotional voice: "Who do you have?"
"They are all people who fall in love with their subordinates. I, Shen Yiguan, am the eldest official, so I was ordered to speak to the Prime Minister." Shen Yiguan replied with a smile, and the flush on his face faded.
"No wonder, no wonder - Zou Yuanbiao is one of 'you'? By showing me, my mentor, the truth, do you mean that if I don't agree with you, I'll die?"
Shen Yiguan did not answer again.
Shen Shixing's voice became even colder, as cold as the cold current coming from the Luo wilderness: "Do you think that the reform was led by my mentor Prince Zhongxing and his successors?"
"Isn't it? Otherwise, Zhang Siwei wouldn't be able to be 'leniently engaged' for two years!"
"No." Shen Shixing sneered and threw Shen Yiguan's heart into the ice hole.
