One hundred and ninety-four chapters return
Lin Yanchao and Shen Shixing sat on the kang seat.
Shen Shixing smiled when he heard this, stroked his gray beard and said, "Have you recovered from your illness this time when you go back to your hometown?"
Lin Yanchao said: "Mr. Lao is worried about it, and the students' illness is cured."
"It's good. I was summoned to the palace last night and didn't sleep all night. It seems that I'm in good spirits. You are a person who does practical things, and you won't be able to do a good job without a good body and spirit."
Lin Yanchao said: "Students are just good at striving for the first place, so where can they do things? Moreover, students have bad tempers. People below often criticize them, saying that students are narrow-minded and far less capable than mentors who can convince the public with their benevolence."
Shen Shixing smiled and said, "Your words reminded me of Xu Huating. I remember that Hai Gangfeng ridiculed Xu Huating and said that he was the prime minister of licorice. The drug theory of licorice is that sweet and smooth tonic, and can also slow down and rush. It monitors some strong-willed drugs, controls them, and accretes them, and promotes them as kings and ministers, and can assist them and harmonize many medicines, so it is known as the old Chinese medicine."
"Therefore, I think that this licorice prime minister may not be Hai Rui's ridicule, but rather a praise for Xu Huating."
Everyone knows that Hai Rui and Xu Jie and the other two made a fuss in the end, but Shen Shixing still thinks that Hai Rui praised Xu Jie, which may be the prime minister's demeanor.
Lin Yanchao said: "My teacher is very insightful. This is very good for licorice, whether it is a country or a body-making plan."
Shen Shixing nodded and continued, "If you are licorice, Weifu belongs to the emperor, government affairs belongs to the six ministries, and speeches are from the censors. This is enough to be able to be reconciled. If you cannot be licorice, you have a bad temper like Gao Xinzheng, you can also be a country. As the saying goes, there is no similar situation in the ages, and there has never been a prime minister in every dynasty and generation."
"But I think that I can be the prime minister, just like Zhuge Liang to read books and look at the general principles alone. You should also read books like Tao Yuanming, sometimes you should not seek to understand them very much. As for the relationship between the king and the minister, it is even more difficult for ancient and modern times. You must remember these words."
Lin Yanchao was shocked when he heard this and immediately said, "Students remember it."
Shen Shixing smiled and said, "Do you know why I summoned you back to Beijing to serve as the Minister of Rites this time?"
Lin Yanchao said: "Students unauthorizedly speculate whether the court is now employed?"
Shen Shixing smiled when he heard this, "It can be said that this time I transferred you to Beijing for both public and private. It is a matter of trouble for the public and the court. You can give advice to the country in the court, as for private..."
Speaking of this, Shen Shixing did not continue.
Lin Yanchao said: "I'll ask my mentor to make it clear..."
But when I saw Shen Shixing smiled, "As for my own words, I have already said it just now, so I won't repeat it."
Lin Yanchao didn't know what to say when he heard this, but he felt heavy shoulders.
Shen Shixing said: "Okay, you've finished talking about your affairs. I have been in the cabinet for more than ten years and have been in the country for seven years. All the people are tired of it. As an official, you should think about retreating. It's better to retreat. Your ears are quiet, and no one will point at me to talk about it anymore."
"Get back!"
Lin Yanchao hurriedly said, "The teacher is in full swing in spring and autumn, so there is no need to have such an idea. This time the student comes back, he wants to serve his teacher first and second."
Shen Shixing said: "Satisfied and fulfilled. When you could persuade Zhang Jiangling to retire, why did you leave it here? Why didn't you persuade me?"
"In fact, since the Hongwu year, although our cabinet has no name as prime minister, it has the reality of prime minister. However, if the cabinet is not just a formal name, it will be unsatisfactory, so it is too good to last for a long time. The longer the longer the more you are, the harder it will be to end well. Everyone should be afraid of you, and the more you learn from it, it is not far away!"
Lin Yanchao heard Shen Shixing talk about this repeatedly, and knew that Shen Shixing had already felt the emperor's fear of him.
Lin Yanchao said unjustly: "The emperor wants to recreate the arbitrary nature of Emperor Shizong. However, since the former emperor ascended the throne, Gao Xinzheng, Zhang Jiangling, and his mentor have been in power and affairs in the world are in order. Why does the emperor not know the principle of governing and letting the government go to the ministers?"
Shen Shixing smiled when he heard this. If he wanted to complain to Lin Yanchao today, Shen Shixing could say that he would not have the same effect for the last month.
Shen Shixing said: "Zonghai, some words are not something that we are a minister, especially in our position, you and me, you must be careful in your words and actions."
Lin Yanchao pressed his knees and said, "Mr., the students are worried that if you return to old age in the future, the party struggles in the court will start again. The students don't know anything, they just know how to do things, but who will support this world for the students at that time?"
Lin Yanchao persuaded Shen Shi to delay his retirement.
Back then, Zhang Juzheng could leave early but not leave, but now Shen Shixing could leave late but want to leave.
The position of Prime Minister cannot be convinced by you just sitting in it. You must be convinced by you before you can be convinced by you before you can be more convinced by you.
Although Shen Shixing was criticized by censors all day long and was able to correct the emperor, he could still do the general affairs in the court under his presidency, whether it was the northwest side affairs or this royal family reform, at least it was done for him.
Seeing Shen Shixing silent, Lin Yanchao had no choice but to continue to persuade: "Mr., if you retire, no one in the court can convince you..."
"Who?" Shen Shixing smiled, "This emperor has already chosen."
"Wang Taicang? Master Wang Ge?" Lin Yanchao asked.
Shen Shixing looked at Lin Yanchao and asked, "What do you think Wang Taicang?"
Lin Yanchao wanted to speak but stopped, and finally turned all the words in his heart into a sentence: "Old Wang Ge Lao is steep, but he is not as good as his mentor..."
Although Wang Xijue is a recognized gentleman in the court, he is obviously not as good as Lin Yanchao, so how can he feel when he goes on stage?
Shen Shixing smiled and finally said solemnly: "No matter who is the prime minister, there is something that must be done. Do you know what?"
"Is it the foundation of the country?"
Shen Shixing nodded and said, "The matter of the country is not as simple as establishing a prince. If you think about it for the emperor, then you should advise the emperor to slow down. However, if you plan for the country, you must establish the country as soon as possible. This is what we need to return to the rule of the emperor."
When Shen Shixing said this, his words were endless and bleak.
Lin Yanchao looked at Shen Shixing and expressed his feelings in a very clichéd sentence, saying that he was "Shen Shixing is old."
After Lin Yanchao came out of Shen Shixing, his face looked very serious.
After leaving Wenyuan Pavilion and reaching the front of Donghua Gate, a soldier stopped him and said, "Sir, your tooth card!"
Lin Yanchao was thinking about something, but forgot to see the road in front of him. Just as he was thinking of picking up the teeth cards to his waist, he was shocked that he had not yet officially appointed as the Minister of Rites, so there were tooth cards on his body.
"This has not been released yet, I don't know if it can be compatible."
After Lin Yanchao said that, the soldier's face turned heavy. He whistled, and then several soldiers on both sides surrounded him.
Then the eunuch on duty and a group of people came from afar.
Lin Yanchao said with a calm face: "What are you doing?"
The eunuch on duty said, "I'm sorry, sir, you're not an official on the first day. You don't know the rules of the imperial city. What crime should you blame if you don't have tooth cards to enter and exit the palace city? We don't need to say it again."
"Are you talking about how you entered the Forbidden City without a tooth card?"
"I came into the city under the order and I just called here."
"Have you been here?"
Lin Yanchao nodded, and at this moment he had no choice but to say, "That's right, you can't recognize me anymore. I am the new Minister of Rites Lin Yanchao."
"Zhuangyuan Gong?"
"Lin Sanyuan?"
"Disrespect, disrespect!"
"Word, worship!"
"I can't afford to offend you, I can't afford to offend you!"
When the eunuchs on duty and the soldiers guarding the city heard Lin Yanchao's name, they all changed their faces and retreated to make their debut.
Lin Yanchao couldn't help but say, "When did I have such a name?"
The eunuch at the sermon smiled and said, "Who doesn't know about Da Zong Bo's reputation in the palace? There is Ma Yu in front and Zhang Jing behind. What's more, I, the guardian, Da Zong Bo, please forgive the villain's crime!"
Lin Yanchao smirked and shook his head. He was so fierce that he was famous!
It seems that I have no choice but to have licorice in this life.
So Lin Yanchao walked out of the Forbidden City with the respectful expedition of everyone.
As soon as he saw Lin Yanchao go out, Zhan Ming greeted him and said, "The master has finally come out. Should I go back to my house first?"
"Go back home? It's okay. Is there any food?"
Zhan Ming immediately smiled and said, "I have prepared a cake from Zhang Ji on the street opposite for the master."
Lin Yanchao smiled and said, "That's good, I haven't eaten it for a long time."
Lin Yanchao got on the carriage, glanced at the Forbidden City, and immediately returned to the mansion.
When the carriage arrived at the mansion, Lin Yanchao knew that he was back when he looked at the familiar words "Lin Mansion".
Lin Yanchao got off the carriage and saw Fang Congzhe, Ye Xianggao, Li Tingji, Sun Chengzong, Yuan Zongdao, Tao Wangling and others waiting there long ago. When they saw him coming, they all came forward to greet him.
"Teacher."
"teacher."
Everyone greeted each other and saw it.
Lin Yanchao stretched out his hand and said, "I've met you again in less than two years, so there is no need to be polite."
Sun Chengzong stepped forward and said aloud: "Since the teacher returned to his hometown, we have been hoping that the teacher can return to Beijing as soon as possible to preside over the overall situation. Today, we finally have a backbone."
Tao Wangling said: "As soon as we learned that the teacher was the one who was Da Zongbo, we cleaned the mansion. We thought that the teacher would meet the teacher if he could go back to the mansion today, but unexpectedly, the teacher was summoned by the emperor to the court for discussion. We were both disappointed and happy."
Fang Congzhe smiled and said, "The Lord is valued by the Lord, and our faces are also very glorious, so the more we wait, the happier we are."
Lin Yanchao shook his head and sighed, "It's better not to mention the matters discussed in the court today."
Everyone was surprised, and Lin Yanchao said, "This is not a place to talk, let's talk back to the study."
After arriving at the study, everyone took their seats and heard Lin Yanchao’s general experience in the court discussion.
Finally, Lin Yanchao said: "After reading, I had a saying in my teacher's deeds, 'If it is difficult for a man to calm down, it is a matter.' I have a deep feeling. It is easy to be an official, but it is difficult to achieve success."
"The court has too many left and right constraints. Even as a lord, when will I let go? I also complained. You are my confidants. Many of these words involve secrets. Don't spread them."
Everyone said together: "Students remember." m.
