From a rational perspective, Qian Yuan knew that he should stay in Beijing, slowly survived his qualifications in the Zhanshi Mansion, and then chose to join the six ministries according to the situation, and then continued to endure until he entered the cabinet...

But from the perspective of emotion, Qian Yuan still hopes to go to the Southeast.

After all, Qian Yuan’s goal is not to reach the top of the pyramid and use administrative means to change the country... This is almost impossible, and from a certain perspective, this is the most difficult road.

Even if you can rule like Zhang Juzheng for ten years, or even like Yan Song for more than ten years, you may get the result of the death of the people.

Qian Yuan’s goal is to use various means to promote exchanges between the East and the West in the name of trade, and to transmit a large amount of Western technology, equipment, weapons, etc. to the country.

Among them, weapons are the most likely. Qian Yuan remembers that he had seen someone comment on the Battle of Sarhu in his previous life. The sky was cloudy, the air was humid, and there was rain. The fuse was unflammable. The inability to use the firearm was a factor in defeat.

Although I don’t know how far the West has developed, at least Qian Yuan is very clear that the bird gun has appeared, so the flintlock gun that can still be fired normally in the rain should appear soon.

A few years ago, Qian Yuan did a great job in the Southeast, which laid the foundation for his position in the court, but at the same time it became his weakness. Xu Jie made several moves against the Southeast.

At the same time, Qian Yuan's status in the southeast and connections did not make the two people think of him. He had a very high influence in both the officialdom, the army, the merchants, and the people, which made it difficult for the court to tolerate him returning to the southeast again.

If one day he had to let him go... Qian Yuan sighed in his heart, could he really go back to the southeast?

Zhejiang doesn’t need to consider it anymore. It’s its own base camp, and Su Song doesn’t need to consider it anymore. He is from Songjiang and cannot work in his hometown.

There is not much possibility in Fujian. Qian Yuan’s best friends Wu Baipeng and Qi Jiguang, one is the governor of Fujian and the other is the general of Fujian. He has taken root in Fujian. Will Qian Yuan take over the court?

It is possible in Guangdong, but... Qian Yuan touched his chin and beard. He mainly worked in the Yangtze River Delta in his previous life. He occasionally traveled on business trips in Nanjing and Beijing. He has never been to Guangdong very much. He is really not familiar with it.

As the days passed, the climate gradually warmed up, and Emperor Longqing's reputation became higher and higher. A group of strict party officials were either demoted, exiled, dismissed, or even imprisoned.

At the same time, a group of officials who have been demoted for more than ten years and dismissed for more than twenty years were recalled to the capital, and a large number of deceased officials needed pensions. The officials of the Ministry of Rites and officials were not enough, so they had to draw staff from the pedestrian department... Anyway, the pedestrian department was a Jinshi, with more than 200 people.

Cleaning up the strict party is a major project that everyone knows and will definitely implement.

Yan Song was in charge of government affairs for 11 years, but in fact, since Xia Yan retired for the first time in the 20th year of Jiajing, Yan Song was promoted to the Grand Secretary of the Wuying Palace. At that time, except for him, the cabinet was only Zhai Luan, who could not resist, and Yan Song had already controlled the cabinet at that time.

A year later, Yan Song used a trick to send Zhai Luan to be dismissed from office and retired, and thus monopolized the power. It was also in that year that Emperor Jiajing set up to restore Xia Yan to balance Yan Song.

From then on, Yan Song and Xia Yan's two-man transfer lasted until the 27th year of Jiajing, in which Xia Yan was three ups and three downs.

Therefore, in fact, Yan Song has not only taken over the government for eleven years, but it has been almost twenty years since the 20th year of Jiajing.

In nearly twenty years, the political forces surrounding Yan Song were extremely large and complex. There were countless officials who were promoted because Yan Party was promoted. When Yan Party was most rampant, Yan Party could control the court's promotion with one hand... The cabinet, the six ministers, the left censor, and a few people could have an absolute advantage.

This is a major project that not only involves the Yan Party, but also involves so many officials who have been promoted by relying on the Yan Party, or even just bribing Yan Shifan.

Many of them have extremely complex backgrounds. The most typical one is Tang Ruji, the top scholar in the 29th year of Jiajing. His father, Tang Long, was a famous official during the Jiajing period and had close contacts with Yan Song. Therefore, Tang Ruji was a confidant of Yan Party and often went to Yan Song and Yan Shifan's bedroom. He also entered Zhan Shifu's mansion for Youchunfang and Yuyude.

But at the same time, Tang Ruji's father Tang Long repeatedly promoted Xu Jie when he was a Tianguan official of the Ministry of Personnel, and was regarded as a key figure in Xu Jie's exiled to another place but was able to return to the court.

Over the years, how many officials have to bow down to Yan Song when they are promoted, how many officials have managed Yan Shifan... and killed them all. This was originally a violation of the rules, and the main evil should be eliminated without asking the rest.

But Yan Song, Yan Shifan was dead, but Emperor Longqing ordered all the wronged people to be recalled to the court, but there were only so many official positions... I had no choice but to bite a few more.

Among the remaining Yan Party, four people were the most concerned, one was Zhao Wenhua, the Minister of Works, Yan Maoqing, the Minister of Dali Temple, Dong Fen, the Idle Hanlin Bachelor, and the last one was of course Hu Zongxian, the Governor of Jiangxi.

"Others don't know about the talent show, but they have some ideas below. If Zhao Yuanzhi can escape safely, he will definitely achieve the talent show."

"Zhancai, Zhao Yuanzhi is as timid as a mouse, and has no strategy. What kind of achievements does he have in the country?"

"Shancai..." Wang Yin had tears in his eyes, "Although you have many gaps with Brother Ruzhen, he has made contributions to the country in commanding the anti-Japanese war..."

In the hall, Qian Yuan, Xu Wei, Wang Yin and Zheng Ruozeng sat separately.

From mid-April to early July, it had been three months since the liquidation of Yan Dang. Zhao Wenhua was lucky enough to return home. Dong Fen was dismissed from the Hanlin Bachelor, and Yan Maoqing was jailed and punished. Only Hu Zongxian, who was commanding troops in Jiangxi, was shaky.

Indeed, when Zhao Wenhua was lucky enough to get out, Qian Yuan secretly helped... However, Zhao Wenhua also paid a considerable price, and the goods accumulated over the years were basically sent to the internal transportation warehouse.

In this regard, Emperor Longqing is a bit like him, and he will release him after receiving the money.

The other three were all gone, and many people in the court impeached Hu Zongxian. This kind of brother was trembling and sent his most trusted confidant aide Wang Yin to Beijing. The latter also brought Zheng Ruozeng, who had the best relationship with Qian Yuan, the aide of the Governor's Office.

Although he despised Hu Zongxian's actions of robbing merits and left the Governor's Office for this reason, Zheng Ruozeng did not want to see Hu Zongxian go to prison and die...

In more than half a month, censors from the north and south of the capital have written letters to impeach Hu Zongxian, such as Governor Jinshan, such as Wang Zhi, such as Wang Zhi, such as being strongly bribed, such as clinging to the party, such as occupying military power, such as plundering the people by introducing the law of the establishment... All charges were taken to Hu Zongxian, such as fearing that he would not die.

After all, Yan Song and Yan Shifan were dead, and it has been three months since the reorganization of Yan Party. Zhao Wenhua, Dong Fen and Yan Maoqing have all collapsed, and now Hu Zongxian is the only one conspicuous target left.

The censor of Kedao also needs to be evaluated, because next year will be the Beijing inspection year. This one can show performance but is completely dangerous... It is not a waste of time to write a letter!

Seeing Wang Yin running into Beijing all the way, Qian Yuan was unmoved, "Brother Yuanzhi was able to return home because he was old. Brother Ruzhen was in his prime, so he should work hard, so how could he feel about returning home?"

"Cough cough, cough cough!" Zheng Ruozeng's violent coughing came from beside him.

Xu Wei also gave him a look of contempt. What is the point of saying such clichés?

Hu Zongxian asked Wang Yin to come to Beijing to find Qian Yuan and brought a letter.
