The first thousand and fifty-ninth chapters are jealous
"The writing is long, the writing is long!"
Emperor Longqing cursed with a smile and cry: "Let's go back and Master Gao is asking you for trouble, but I won't explain it to you."
"It's not been a day or two since Gao Xinzheng asked Suiyuan for trouble." Xu Wei added smoothies to Emperor Longqing and complained: "Just a few days ago, Wu Junze, the foreigner of the Ministry of War, was scolded by Gaoge for no reason... He really regarded the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Personnel as his own home!"
Although Emperor Longqing was not quick enough and was not decisive enough, he was not stupid. It was also obvious why Gao Gong still occupies the Minister of Rites and refuses to move his position... In fact, Emperor Longqing also hinted twice, but Gao Gong pretended not to understand.
Gao Gong also has reason. If the Minister of Rites is missing, the ones who are most likely to succeed are Gao Yi, who is close to Suiyuan, and Li Chunfang, who is involved in Xu Jie's sect.
Emperor Longqing planned to let Chen Yiqin, Hu Zhengmeng, Yin Shidan and other experienced old ministers enter the cabinet within one to two years. It was Zhang Juzheng, Zhang Siwei, Lin Feng, Zhu Dashou and others' turn.
However, Gao Gong occupied the Minister of Rites, which made it impossible for those old ministers to transfer to the six ministries. They were all Hanlin officials who took the typical path of the Chancellor. Who would not want to enter the cabinet from the Ministry of Rites and enter the cabinet from other ministers, and naturally they would be weaker.
But Emperor Longqing had a doubt that he could not resolve. He sent Chen Hong to get the "Along the River During the Qingming Festival" and asked Xu Wei in a vague tone.
As early as when Emperor Longqing was in Prince Yu's Mansion, he deliberately did not ease the tension between Gao Gong and Qian Yuan. After ascending the throne, he even made a long-term plan to balance Gao Gong with Suiyuan.
From the current perspective, in addition to the censor of Kedao, Suiyuan has a considerable weight in the court. Although Sun Sheng retired, officials at the level of ministers who were close to Suiyuan include Huang Maoguan, Pan Sheng, Lu Shusheng, and Gao Yi. All three of them were on the route of the prime minister. Although Southeast Tong was frequently invaded and seized power, they still controlled the two ports in Xiamen and Quanzhou with Lu Yipeng and Sun Piyang.
More importantly, the Suiyuan Party has a strong cohesion. There are both officials like Wu Baipeng and Tan Lun, many senior officials of the level of ministers, and a large number of young heroes who have stood out, such as Chen Younian, Wu Dui, Sun Ying, Sun Yan, and Zhu Dashou, who have long been famous in the capital, but over the past year, Zhou Shi, Yang Quan and others have also become famous one after another.
Emperor Longqing's doubts are that although Suiyuan is not weak, most of the core characters are young and it is difficult to pose a threat to Gao Gong in a short period of time. Even Gao Yi, who is likely to enter the cabinet, is still far from Gao Gong. Why is Gao Gong so hostile to Qian Yuan?
Even Gao Gong was not very hostile to Gao Yi, who was the Minister of Rites at the Suiyuan, and instead confronted Qian Yuan everywhere?
Not to mention, a few years ago, Qian Yuan and Gao Gong had their first time arguing, and the former did not return to Hanlin in front of Emperor Longqing... So after Emperor Longqing ascended the throne, he only placed Qian Yuan in Zhan Shi Mansion and did not work part-time at the Hanlin Academy.
If you don’t go back to Hanlin, there is almost no possibility of joining the cabinet. In this case, why did Master Gao still target Qian Yuan?
Faced with this question, Xu Wei smacked his lips, "Your Majesty, just now, the Zan and Zhan are the confidants..."
"Say!" Emperor Longqing was speechless. Should he praise his mouth for being too smelly?
Xu Wei stammered and said something in a low voice.
"Um?"
“…”
"Make it clear!"
"Uh, I mean... Gaoge Lao looked a bit jealous."
Emperor Longqing was stunned for a moment and kicked Yu Ruyi on the table without hesitation, "Xu Wenchang, you are so brave!"
Xu Wei caught Yu Ruyi with great hangover, bent over, and said mercy repeatedly, and sneaked into the eyes to see the expression on Emperor Longqing's face... He was not too angry, but he blushed a little.
Ahem, just Gao Gong's appearance... If he was a handsome person, Xu Wei would inevitably think wrongly.
Xu Wei was thinking a lot over there, but Emperor Longqing fell into deep thought and then suddenly realized.
Back then, Master Gao had to take care of almost anything in Prince Yu's Mansion and accompany him every day. Even after leaving Prince Yu's Mansion and becoming the Minister of Taichang Temple, he would come to his house every day. If he discussed important matters, he would make a decision.
This situation continued until Qian Yuan emerged.
Emperor Longqing remembered the first time he saw Qian Yuan. After the words "Full protect your body, and bad luck turns into good fortune", he suddenly heard that King Jing's son died. In addition, Qian Yuan was sent by his father to go to Prince Yu's mansion. Since then, he has attached great importance to Qian Yuan.
Oh, maybe he would also have to add his promise to form a royal fleet and the delicious food in Suiyuan’s kitchen, which is the Yingxing Candy Shop, which is open to the Yu Palace.
But soon, when I talked about Qian Yuan in the mansion, mentioned Suiyuan, Yin Shidan, Chen Yiqin, and Hu Zhengmeng all smiled and agreed, only Master Gao would speak coldly...
Emperor Longqing looked at Xu Wei, saying that it was nonsense if he was jealous... Uh, but it really looked a bit like it.
Otherwise, it would not be explained why Master Gao is so targeted at Zhan Cai.
Although he was an emperor, Emperor Longqing's qualifications were quite average. He was not even made the crown prince because he had never seen Emperor Jiajing for many years, and he was not even made the crown prince when he was old. During his Qiandi period, he obeyed Gao Gong in everything... This directly led to Emperor Longqing's immatureness in controlling the government and thinking about people's hearts. Although he worked hard, the effect was mainly because of the emperor's identity, not because of his skills.
The word "jealous"... Xu Wei actually said it clearly enough, but Emperor Longqing did not think about why Gao Gong wanted to be jealous.
The key is that Gao Gong did not want to see other people among the old ministers in Qiandi, who also had people with strong influence on Emperor Longqing.
Xu Wei didn't expect that the emperor had no idea. He scooped up a bowl of mung bean soup on his own and said, "Your Majesty, there is another thing. In the 36th year of Jiajing, Zhan Cai recruited Wang Zhi and set up a city to trade. The censors in the court rose up and attacked him..."
"I remember this." Emperor Longqing nodded and smiled: "Zhan Cai is a clever man, three hundred giant trees... If it weren't for the giant trees sent one after another, the three halls would still be difficult to achieve. Speaking of which, this was offered by Wang Zhi."
Xu Wei said while drinking mung bean soup: "It was that time. Gaoge thought Zhancai would be defeated, so he wanted Suiyuan to change his name..."
Emperor Longqing was stunned and immediately felt unhappy. No wonder Qian Yuan made a fuss with Master Gao after returning to Beijing. It turned out that the root of the matter was here!
To put it bluntly, Gao Gong saw that Qian Yuan was going to be in trouble and wanted to catch all the talents in Suiyuan and let them change their homes... Suiyuan is Qian Yuan's foundation.
The main reason why Emperor Longqing was displeased was that he was obviously Master Gao and did not pay attention to Qian Yuan at the moment, instead targeting Qian Yuan everywhere... It was really aggrieved Zhan Cai.
