Seeing Yan Shifan's dejected appearance, Qian Yuan's heart was slightly cold. With his understanding of this person, this was definitely not a person who gave up easily.

"Oh, Brother Donglou, don't be discouraged!" Qian Yuan patted the table lightly, "Mr. Dongbi took Yuan Fu's pulse and elder brother Wen mentioned in a letter that although Yuan Fu was old, his vitality had not been lost and his body was still healthy."

Yan Shifan shook his head, "Dong Yongjun."

The biggest blow to Yan Shifan is here. Dong Fen, who may have entered the cabinet, was held down. You should know that few Hanlin officials who are ambitious and qualified to enter the cabinet are involved in the Yan Mansion. Even if they cannot go to Zhan Shi Mansion or Prince Yu Mansion, they can still learn from Yuan Wei and Li Chunfang's Qing Ci.

"It doesn't matter if the Minister of Justice was dismissed. The Zhan Shi Mansion was missing... Huating didn't rob it, and he left a Hanlin scholar." Qian Yuan pondered for a moment and whispered: "Brother Donglou is the best at Qing Ci..."

"What does Zhancai mean?"

"Hi, Brother Donglou wrote Qing Ci for Yuan Fu... Your Majesty also knew it very well." Qian Yuan smiled and said, "You can let Brother Yongjun write for you now."

Yan Shifan was clear at a glance, and thought for a while and whispered: "Yan wrote the Qing Ci and entered Beijing, and he was the name of Dong Yongjun?"

"After all, there are Hanlin scholars in the body. Yunquan Gong entered the cabinet and the great masters were missing. Not many people could make up for it." Qian Yuan held his finger and said, "Ji Quan Gong, the Minister of Rites in Nanjing, calculated one, and if Li Shiyan could get up and calculated one, in addition, Gaoxin Zheng would have to survive for a few more years. Yuan Wei, the Minister of Rites in the Ministry of Rites, Lin Tingji, was still very experienced, and although the Minister of Western Yuan Li Chunfang and Yan Ne had His Majesty as Hanlin scholar, it was difficult to convince the public."

Yan Shifan was so enchanted that he slowly said, "After all, Dong Yong is guilty of being punished. If he is favored by Qing Ci, there will be the Ministry of Works and the Ministry of Justice..."

Qian Yuan nodded in agreement and sneered in his heart. Will Ouyang Bijin listen to you with that temperament? Zhao Wenhua... can only listen to me!

At this time, a servant from Yan’s house reported outside, “Master, the prefect of Zhenjiang, and the magistrate of Dantu asked for a visit.”

Yan Shifan waved impatiently: "What are you doing with a small official? Leave a gift list and send it away!"

Tsk, don't take people seriously, but the gift list needs to be kept... Qian Yuan felt that he was very eye-opening. To be honest, it is not common for people like Yan Shifan to be so desperate.

In fact, Yan Shifan's arrogance after leaving Beijing was still arrogant and domineering, and his hands were weakened when receiving gifts... Although the local officials along the way could see that the Yan Party was destroyed not far away, they really did not dare to offend this notorious little cabinet master.

Qian Yuan took the official boat to Zhenjiang on the sixth day of the fourth month, but in Suzhou and Changzhou delayed for several days until the tenth day of the fourth month, for Yan Shifan.

At that time, Yan Shifan went around in a circle to the city of Nanjing and took a basket of gifts. He also assigned the Duke of Wei to send an army of 500 people to escort him back home.

Judging from the various situations, Qian Yuan judged that Yan Shifan was either alive and ignorant... In the history books, Yan Song was ordered to retire, Yan Shifan was dismissed from office and was exiled to Leizhou, and he actually dared to run back to his hometown to Fenyi. He was still domineering and was eventually impeached by Lin Run until his death. However, the fact of Ming Dynasty history is too much water, and Qian Yuan dares not believe it now.

Either Yan Shifan is willing to revive, but Qian Yuan wondered, is this guy too confident?

Or Yan Shifan was fearless. After all, the incident was so big this time that Bai Qichang took the blame and was just returning home to Dingyou, and Yan Song was still firmly in charge of the position of chief minister.

But there is no need to think about this anymore. Qian Yuan smiled and said, "This time Brother Donglou left Beijing, he has gained a lot. Tsk, five ships!"

"Aren't you five ships too?" Yan Shifan laughed and scolded: "Zhenhai trades, Yongjiang turns into Yinjiang, and you have also been full in the past few years!"

"Don't slander!" Qian Yuan said seriously: "In recent years, Qian has been honest..."

"What are those five ships carrying?"

"Brother Donglou is so boring, he insists on exposing it?" Qian Yuan rolled his eyes, "Brother Xu Donglou accepts some gifts, but don't Qian accept some?"

It was already noon at this time, and Qian Yuan stayed to eat. The servants of Yan Mansion held tableware and dishes came in one after another, which was quite a big show.

"It is still in the filial piety period, so you are not allowed to drink alcohol, and you are not allowed to eat meat, so you are too slow to stay." Yan Shifan extended his hand to invite him.

"As a son, I should do this." Qian Yuan nodded, "Brother Donglou please first."

In essence, Yan Shifan, regardless of his character or his evil deeds, had only the title of a prison student, but he was a scholar and still kept polite.

Of course, although it is a vegetarian vegetarian, there are many mountain delicacies, which are delicious and Qian Yuan eats them with relish.

It was not until the sunset that Qian Yuan stood up and said goodbye, and Yan Shifan took him all the way to the dock.

"Brother Donglou, stop." Qian Yuan bowed and said, "I will be able to reunite in less than two years."

Yan Shifan bowed and said, "Zhancai entered Beijing this time, and Huating was in great danger. His son-in-law was valued by Gao Xinzheng and introduced him to the Yu Prince's Mansion. Lu Yuyao in the cabinet was useless. Wu Yuejing had a low level of experience. If he could get Li Shiyan as the leader, he might be able to resist."

"My husband has written it down, thank you brother Donglou."

"If you want to visit Zhan Cai, if you want to, you can visit him. If you have any questions, you can find Zhao Wenhua of the Ministry of Works and Uncle Ouyang of the Ministry of Justice."

Qian Yuan returned to the boat and looked back. Yan Shifan was paced at the pier in the afterglow of the sunset.

To be honest, Qian Yuan had a complicated feeling about Yan Shifan after several years of interaction.

Although he embezzled and accepted bribes, and although he was cruel in his methods, he regarded money as his fate, Yan Shifan did not leave the category of a bureaucrat.

In essence, he is far from comparable to Gao Gong and Zhang Juzheng, but compared with another three-phase leader Xu Jie of Zhongxing, the gap is not far.

Qian Yuan stood on the second deck for a long time until the sun sets, until the bright moon hangs high, and the bright moonlight shines on the gurgling river water, reflecting a silver light.

Suddenly he shook his head and smiled. He wanted to get back to Li Shiyan that day, in order to check and balance Xu Huating. Most people often hate the betrayer more than the hatred of the enemy, and they also fell into this kind of thinking pattern.

When Xu Jie counterattacked and joined forces with Yan Song to force Nie Bao to retreat. It was a poisonous sting that was inserted into Qian Yuan's heart. For this reason, Qian Yuan always rejected, wary and resented Xu Jie.

It was not until the end of last year that Qian Yuan made up his mind to know that the two envoys of the day were Xu Jie and Yan Song and his son.

Hate should not be allowed to blind one's heart, but should be turned into a driving force or even as a means.

On that day, my father asked me and said that I had said I was worthy of my gratitude... This was Qian Yuan's promise, not to anyone, but to himself.

After sighing quietly, Qian Yuan held the hilt of the knife on his waist with his left hand, "I heard the Jiangxi war report the day before yesterday, Zhang Lian made a big fuss in Nan'an Prefecture and Ganzhou Prefecture, and rushed east and west, or tried to flee south into Guangdong. Hu Ruzhen rectified the army, took Qi Jimei's troops as the vanguard, Yu Dayou's troops and Chen Gui's troops as the central army, and went south to try to prevent the bandits from entering Guangdong."

Wang Yi, who was behind him, whispered: "I returned from Jiangxi more than a month ago. I encountered many bandits and riots on the way."

Wang Yi's answer actually had nothing to do with the situation of the war. Qian Yuan was silent for a while and said: "Where did the soldiers outside the Zhejiang Governor's Office come from the second day of the second day of last year?"

"The Zhenwu Camp was built by the Ministry of Revenue in Nanjing." Wang Yi asked softly: "How many people?"

"Five Hundred Soldiers."

Wang Yi didn't say anything else and suddenly knelt down on one knee.
