In fact, at certain times, everyone will look back at their own life, look back at the past, and look forward to the future. This is the so-called yesterday, today and tomorrow. It's just that under normal circumstances, this kind of work is often started after people feel tired of life, or after he has reached a certain goal of his own. The most common model is, of course, an old man fishing beside the Weishui River, lamenting that life is like running water under his feet and never returns.
Fan Xian is not Kuhe, he has no hobby of fishing, and he is still young, but his life has been repeated once more than other people in this world. After careful calculation, he should be in his thirties, The middle-aged man who is about to know his destiny is the man, but he is forced to stay in a beautiful fragrant skin—the word forced is a bit hypocritical, let alone—but he will also reflect on it.
Instead of lamenting that he didn't work hard for the good and just cause of mankind back then, he was looking for clarity in a kind of chaos, trying to find his firm and clear goal again, because now he is a little confused.
After rebirth, he has always been a person with firm goals. On the cliff, he once made three major wishes to Uncle Wuzhu based on the three representatives. Today, the three major wishes have basically been fulfilled, but he is not lecherous. Just like Fan Xian, there are not many women around him.
The foundation of the three major vows is naturally to live. For this goal, he has been working hard, being tough, and being cold-blooded. Moreover, the hidden skills or bonus attributes of the three major wishes are naturally the ideal of life that he told Fan Shangshu - a powerful minister.
Now in the Kingdom of Qing, in the world, Fan Xian is really a powerful official. He travels everywhere, no one is disrespectful, no one is not afraid, but once he is like this, the young man who knows his destiny is still confused after all. Is this really the life I want
He was walking alone on the road from Huayuan to Jiangnan Governor's Mansion (it seems that I mistyped a place name yesterday, sorry.), lowered his head, pretending like a philosopher, but behind him were several tiger guards, on both sides of the street There are also many spies from the Overwatch Council secretly protecting them.
"Master Xiao Fan."
"Young master."
"Master Imperial Envoy."
"Master Tisi."
A series of salutations full of enthusiasm, flattery, and slight fear sounded from beside him. Fan Xian was startled and looked up in astonishment. He found that he had already entered the Jiangnan Governor's Mansion, and officials from Jiangnan Road were lined up on both sides, saying " Looking at him with affectionate "eyes, he was indescribably hot and gentle, and the whole government office seemed to be accompanied by his arrival, and suddenly there were countless horses that had eaten bad fodder, and the sound of farts was thunderous.
Fan Xian scratched his head subconsciously. He didn't care that this action was slightly off-putting. He laughed at himself, and got rid of all the metaphysical things that surrounded his mind before. Yes, life does need a goal, but he started to doubt it now. Life may be too early. Newton didn't become a real magic stick until he was old, and Xiao Ai spent the rest of his life gnashing his teeth against Da Yi, but after all, these two masters are back to the original after all their brilliance, so what is he
I am a layman after all, and I must admit that I still enjoy the benefits of vanity, power, money, and fame after all.
While greeting the officials amiably, Fan Xian walked to the study of the Governor's Mansion, thinking that he was different from Ye Qingmei, and it was better not to sprinkle idealistic brilliance on himself.
In this world, no, in all worlds, idealists are lonely and easy to die, and it is impossible for Fan Xian to accept these two.
It's better to be a powerful minister honestly, he thought in his heart.
However, when he walked to Xue Qing's study room and chatted with Xue Qing for a long time with his head lowered, he began to laugh at himself again. Is it possible to do something like a powerful minister if you want to do it? It depends on whether His Majesty allows you to do it. A fatuous and incompetent emperor may be emptied by a powerful minister, but how can a person like the emperor Lao Tzu give himself such a chance? How can he still be like this after living for more than 30 years? Innocent and cute
He stretched himself, squinted at Xue Qing in the grand teacher's chair, closed his eyes and meditated, cursed a few words in his heart, and said: "It's fine to let the Ministry of Accounts do things like auditing. The internal treasury has always been the supervisor The court is in charge... Why did the Metropolitan Procuratorate suddenly come to help? Didn’t all the censors go to prison a few months ago, where did so many people in the Metropolitan Procuratorate come to check the accounts? Even if there are enough people, those who only know The guy who gnawed at the scriptures, looking at the numbers on the account, I'm afraid he's going to faint. Mr. Xue, you have to get an account of this matter...Jiangnan is very good, and there are some people here, it's a bit overwhelming."
Xue Qing smiled, and cursed secretly in her heart, thinking that you are the one who opened the household department, you are in charge of the Overwatch Council, and you are the one who sits on the internal treasury, so what the hell is going on? The Kyoto side has long had an opinion on this matter. At this time, Zhongshu Zhongshu has a new idea. Isn't it because you are afraid that your kid will steal all the things in the inner library and sell them.
However, Fan Xian had been in Jiangnan for a year and a half, and he cooperated very well with Xue Qing. There was a tacit understanding between the two of them. Xue Qing didn't know how much money he had made from him. This couldn't be explained clearly. After thinking about it, he said: " It's not impossible to come to investigate, but you and the Metropolitan Procuratorate have accumulated grievances, let them investigate, who knows if they will avenge their personal revenge publicly."
These words can only be said by these senior officials in private forever.
"Can't stop it anymore? Don't the old man Shu Wu and University scholar Hu have nothing to do?" Anyway, there were no outsiders in the study, Fan Xian said angrily, but he knew in his heart that in name, he was a student under the door. The letter was actually the meaning of the emperor Lao Tzu. It is not a proper way to hold the internal treasury supervisory office with one hand after all. I mixed a handful of He Zongwei brand sand in the capital supervisory office, but it was suppressed by Pingping. Don't dare to breathe, this is going to the south of the Yangtze River.
What Fan Xian was wary of was whether the emperor didn't believe his explanation about China Merchants Bank, or whether he was wary of his relationship with the Northern Qi people. As for the smuggling, he didn't care too much. The eldest princess had been away for more than ten years, and he had only earned a year's worth of oil and water, and he gave so much snowflake silver to the treasury backhandedly. The emperor would never be so stingy.
Seeing Fan Xian's somewhat unhappy face, Xue Qing laughed twice, and comforted him, "Why are you worried about doing it for the people in the court? Even if you send a third division headed by imperial envoys to investigate, your hand Who else can find out what? Don’t forget, you are also an imperial envoy.”
Xue Qing flipped his hands over, took advantage of the situation to hold the cup of tea on the table, and took a sip.
Fan Xian stared at his steady hand, and a thought flashed in his mind. Xue Qing knew something about the smuggling, but he didn't know the inside story. That's why he seemed so calm. If he knew that he was secretly destroying the Qing Kingdom I'm afraid the old boy will drop this cup of tea to the ground in shock.
He was about to pour some more oil and light up the fire, but he saw Xue Qing put down the teacup and changed his serious expression.
In official circles, especially people like Xue Qing, who is a local emperor, and Fan Xian, who is a prince, basically talk about some important things in a joking manner, so as not to make each other feel that there is too much estrangement and tend to be indifferent. This was the first time Fan Xian had seen Xue Qing's serious expression, so he couldn't help but frown.
After being silent for a long time, Xue Qing slowly opened his mouth and said, "Master Fan, you naturally know more about the affairs of the capital than I do. I don't know what your opinion is?"
view? As for the fart, I don't have any opinion on such a big matter. Fan Xian kept his mouth shut and said nothing, just looked at the beard under Xue Qing's chin with a smile, as if he admired it very much. Anyway, in this world, except for the few great masters and the emperor Laozi, he was not afraid of anyone, so he naturally dared to pose This pair of clay sculptures looks like.
Xue Qing coughed twice. Looking at Fan Xian's appearance, she knew that her question was too low-level, and the other party's scoundrel was more level-headed than herself. She laughed at herself, and after thinking for a while, said directly: "I said it clearly. Well, Your Majesty... it's going to be abolished."
Fan Xian was startled, as if he didn't hear the words clearly. After a while, he came back to his senses, stood up abruptly, stared into Xue Qing's eyes, and didn't speak for a long time.
He was really shocked in his heart. What shocked him was not the waste reserve itself, nor Xue Qing's discussion with him, but because Xue Qing dared to say it in front of him, it must not be him who guessed it, but the emperor in the palace. He had already given wind to his diehard loyalists, and at the same time began to blow the wind around through him.
Is public opinion about to start
Xue Qing gently tapped the table with his fingers, looked at him and said with a smile: "Why is Lord Fan so surprised? Isn't this something you expected?" He sighed suddenly, a trace of pity flashed between his brows He said slowly, "Actually, I'm not afraid of you knowing, I've written a booklet to persuade His Majesty to give up this idea, but it didn't work."
"You want me to submit the paper too?" Fan Xian looked at him.
Xue Qing said mockingly: "Everyone knows what your relationship with the crown prince is, the old man can't be so stupid."
After pausing for a moment, he said softly: "Your Majesty has made up his mind, we courtiers have no choice but to act according to the rules..." Xue Qing paused again at this point, as if he was also very puzzled. There is a style of sincerity, and he has benefited a lot in all aspects. Why did His Majesty suddenly abolish the reserve, but he vaguely guessed that there must be something wrong within the royal family. In front of Fan Xian, the illegitimate son of the royal family, he would never express his doubt Proclaim it in your mouth.
After thinking for a while, Fan Xian asked, "How many people know about this matter?"
"You and I are the only ones who know about Jiangnan." Xue Qing said, "However, I believe that the governors of the Seven Routes have already received His Majesty's secret decree. It depends on when everyone will receive the decree."
Fan Xian sneered in his heart, the emperor is really ruthless, he is even a little confused, the crown prince has performed well in a year, not only did he not make any mistakes when he went to Nanzhao this time, but he won the compliments from the whole court, presumably the emperor wanted to abolish him. Chu, it is too difficult to find an excuse... He even used the tactic of encircling the center from the local area.
It's just that although the governor of the Seven Routes speaks very powerfully, he is a courtier after all, who dares to lead the way to do this? Even if it was ordered by His Majesty's secret decree, the seven governors are not idiots, and they probably won't believe that they will have a good end in the future if they participate in the battle for the throne.
Xue Qing seemed to see what was going on in his heart, and said slowly: "This governor must be the first official to write a letter to remonstrate with His Majesty on the abolition of the reserve."
Fan Xian was stunned, and looked into Xue Qing's eyes quietly. He knew that this person was the emperor's loyal loyalist, but he never thought that the other party was so loyal to the emperor.
"What's the reason?" He frowned and reminded the other party.
Xue Qing smiled slightly and looked at Fan Xian: "That's why I invited my lord to come here today... His Majesty's meaning is very clear, the Eight Offices should be activated."
Fan Xian had already sat back on the chair at this time, tilting his head slightly in a daze. To abolish the reserve, he would naturally start with the Eight Offices of the Overwatch Council. After all, the prince had many unsightly things that fell into the hands of the inner court and the Overwatch Council. , coupled with the battle of the Jiangnan Ming family's lawsuit over the natural inheritance rights of the eldest son, no matter how you look at this matter-the emperor wants to abolish the prince, he should be the pawn.
His face was very calm, and he couldn't see the agitation in his heart. After a long while, he said: "A place is a place, and Kyoto is a capital. If it's just these actions... the backlash from the court will be huge, and those senior scholars in Zhongshu under the door will not Watching helplessly as the prince is abolished without fault."
What he said was the truth. Civil servants were dedicated to celebrating the country, and what they wanted was stability. Of course, they would vigorously oppose the emperor's seemingly absurd move.
"Especially the Overwatch Council can't come forward." Fan Xian lowered his head and said, "It's not convenient for me to show up. The Overwatch Council is a secret service agency. The Crown Prince and I have always been at odds. Some words coming out of my mouth... will only have the opposite effect. .”
"Your words make sense, and I will report to His Majesty." Xue Qing said after thinking for a while, "Your Majesty asked me to inform you about something. After a while, Your Majesty will go to sacrifice to heaven."
Fan Xian felt surprised again today, and frowned for a long time before slowly savoring the taste. Although the way of ghosts and gods could not prevail in the Qing Dynasty, and it was not as popular as the Tianyi in the Northern Qi Dynasty, he still admired the illusory temple. If the emperor Lao Tzu What an apocalypse can really come out...
The public opinion attack on the prince was first, and the governor of Qidalu wrote a letter later, and some courtiers came out to accuse the prince of immorality and unbearable to inherit the country. In the end, the emperor was in a dilemma and went to the temple to sacrifice to heaven, accepting the order of heaven, and abolishing the prince.
Well, what an absurd drama, what a boring trick.
Fan Xian shook his head and asked, "When?"
"One month later." (If you want to know what will happen next, please log in, more chapters, support the author, support the original!)
