"Zhongshu, Zhongshu..."

In the Taicheng official office, He Chong called out twice, and Yu Liang suddenly woke up from a daze, then coughed twice, corrected his sitting position, and said solemnly: "What's wrong with the next one?"

Seeing Yu Liang's slightly unconfused look, He Chong couldn't help but feel curious. He was ordered by the Secretary of the Central Committee for many years. He used to see Secretary of the Central Committee's demeanor, with a meticulous appearance and attitude, which was less rude than others. Recently, he often acted in a state of distractedness and his expression was quite different from that of the ordinary.

Although he was curious in his heart, He Chong's face was not at all different. He was not from Shizuo's high school and could live in Taicheng for a long time. In addition to his own talent and fame, he always adhered to the word "cautious" and was not his own duty and would never speak lightly.

"There is an edict in the garden."

He Chong had a deep understanding of the tense atmosphere between the people in Taiyuan. When he heard Yu Liang's question, he didn't say much, and directly took the edict that had just been sent from the courtyard to Yu Liang's case.

Yu Liang held up the edict and took a quick look. The first thing he focused on was not the content of the edict, but the emperor's handwriting that was already very different from before.

In the past, the emperor's handwriting was round and smooth, and was moderately restrained and relaxed, just like his style of acting, he was fortitude and progress. After planning, he would move. If he moves, he would have a resounding resonance! However, although the edict in front of him was the same person, it was very different from the previous one, and it turned dry and dry, and it was extremely difficult to continue, and his writing skills were exhausted.

As for the content of the edict, it is very simple. It is just to praise the talented and virtuous style of Jiangdong, each with its praise, and to write the inscription of the Imperial Academy to encourage all the students to study hard and not to slack off. At the end, it is attached with the new poem written by the young man in the Shen family, the poem "The Song of a Wandering Son".

Seeing this, Yu Liang couldn't help but smile bitterly, and he became more aware of the irreparable cracks between the king and his subjects. He knew that the emperor had resentment towards him, but the situation was gradually coming to this point, and it was not his wish, and he had no choice but to go to this point!

After the Wang Dun Rebellion was quelled, the emperor gradually became a little unable to control himself. All the loyal and wise men in the court did not agree. Liyang and Su Jun were placed in the armpits, and Jingzhou divided Shaanxi and entrusted it to the hands of the cold wave! His thoughts were already obvious, and everyone in the outside court was in danger.

Faced with such a hidden danger, Yu Liang's rule was also difficult and he did not dare to show it. It would be better if he stopped here. The most complicated thing was that the emperor's support for the royal family made people feel thrilled. The chaotic political lesson of the royal family was not far away. How could this beast with fierce fangs appear again in the world!

When the emperor was seriously ill and had no master in the garden, the queen urgently ordered Yu Liang to enter the palace. Faced with such a situation, what could Yu Liang do? He could only hold the imperial guards. Once the emperor really failed to cure, he would ensure that the prince could succeed to the throne and maintain the stability of the current situation.

But the emperor was not dead, which put Yu Liang in an awkward position. He was already in a dilemma, either retreating in shame and staying in the door, or staying in the status quo and waiting for the opportunity to turn around.

Yu Liang never thought that he would become a powerful minister who controlled the ban. He was forced by the times. As the king and his ministers had a rift, he could no longer retreat, otherwise the current situation would be ruined!

The emperor wanted to choose a son-in-law for the princess, but in Yu Liang's opinion it was another step of chess. The current situation was worse than a quiet situation. Especially the Shen family of Wuxing, which he wanted, made Yu Liangyin even more dissatisfied. How could the daughter of the imperial family be so betrayed!

Things were indeed as Yu Liang expected, and the Wang family of Langya took the opportunity to get involved. What kind of virtue can Shen be able to match the Wang family? If the Wang family takes advantage of this situation and rise again, how should they check and balance in the future?

Others only said that he was worried that Shen would get rid of the clamping, so he didn't want Shen to be the emperor's relative, which was too underestimated. The problem is that the Shen family could not win in this competition, so why bother to force themselves and make a laughing stock?

The emperor's edict was intended to speak out for the Shen family, but in Yu Liang's view, it was just to give up the last bit of emperor's dignity and trampled on others. However, his intentions were decided, and Yu Liang didn't know how to dissuade him. Although he felt moved in his heart, he only sighed lightly and pushed the edict to He Chong, and ordered: "Term the company to supervise."

He Chong took the order seriously. Just as he was about to withdraw, he suddenly heard Yu Liang ask, "So, if you believe in others and want to help you repay them again in the future, I wonder what you would do?"

He Chong was slightly stunned when he heard this question, and he didn't understand why Yu Liang asked this question. As he was always cautious, he was frowning and pondering about a comprehensive answer, but he heard Yu Liang say, "Forget it, ask casually, don't take it to heart, go."

After a pause, Yu Liang suddenly said: "Shen Shi is in a foreign town and should not live in the capital for a long time, so he should urge him to return to the town."

After watching He Chong leave, Yu Liang sat back in his seat again, and his thoughts were filled with many miscellaneous thoughts. He soon fell into deep thoughts again.

Compared to the current situation where he was walking on thin ice, what made him even more helpless at this moment was family affairs. His third brother Yu Tiao was bold and arrogant. In Jingkou, Jinling took advantage of people's wealth, which had become a decay.

Recently, as he became more and more frightened about the inside story, he felt more and more frightened. This matter was much more serious than he thought. If he just received bribes or borrowed money, even though he was a great minister, he would never shelter his relatives and ignore the national laws and just put Yu Tiao on the crime of the Si Shi.

However, the so-called hidden title and salary are tempted by the heavy profits, and are connected by the cliques, forming threads and wires, and the threads are still spreading and festering, and their momentum is very strong, and it cannot be stopped by human power!

Even in the face of the complicated current situation, Yu Liang did not feel so powerless and helpless. He watched the disaster of heaven be suppressed little by little. Once the disaster broke out, the entire Yu family would turn into powder, and it might still cause the current situation to be turbulent!

The more he sat down, the more anxious he became. Yu Liang simply stood up and prepared to go home to ask Yu Tiao what else was hiding from him.

—————

On the shore of Yanque Lake in the east of Jiankang City, Shen Zhezi is seeing off his father Shen Chong.

"Yu Yuangui is really hateful. As soon as my family's situation eased, the Secretary of the Central Committee repeatedly urged me to return to the town, and his intentions were really unbearable!"

When the father and son were alone, Shen Chong couldn't help but scold him.

Earlier, the emperor wrote "The Song of a Wandering Son" written by Shen Zhezi, and erected a monument in Taixue. Finally, people realized that Shen Zhezi was the emperor's choice of the emperor's son-in-law, rather than a villain who had no self-knowledge at all. Therefore, public opinion in Jiankang City was uproar for a while.

Shortly after this incident, the Taishan Goat clan expressed his intention to withdraw from the alternative. In the end, only three families were left, Langya Wang clan, Danyang Zhang clan and Wuxing Shen clan.

Originally, I was just watching the lively people, but no matter how stupid they were, I gradually saw a trace of signs. The seemingly ordinary selection of the emperor and son-in-law eventually turned into a political battle.

For the Southerners, this is a good thing. Two of the remaining three families are southerners. For the Overseas Chinese, this matter has become more important. Once the Wang family of Langya loses the election to the Southerners, they will not hesitate to have a signal that the Overseas Chinese will lose power. Although the ruling ruling is still an overseas Chinese, this matter will plant a seed in the hearts of the Southerners, driving them to constantly attack and challenge the political monopoly of the Overseas Chinese!

With such a political atmosphere, the Shen family in Wuxing has become the glory of the southerners. If anyone criticizes it, they will be attacked by countless southerners. And Shen Zhezi's poem "The Song of a Wanderer" was also sung in this atmosphere for a while.

To be honest, this situation is not something that Shen Zhezi is happy to see, especially on the eve of the emperor's death, which is really not conducive to the change of the throne. But in the situation, no one has to do it. If the other companies are willing to abide by the rules instead of manipulating public opinion behind their backs to slander his family, he would not have played so big.

Moreover, it was not the only one who caused this situation. The emperor's cooperation played the greatest role. He can now be sure that the emperor is indeed willing to choose him as his son-in-law. Thinking about the many jokes about this father-in-law before, he really didn't act like a son, so he couldn't do that in the future.

But since the emperor dares to do this, it means that at least his life should last for a while. What else can Shen Zhezi worry about? Only by doing one move, the third party and the fourth party who hindered his family's reunion and family harmony were all eliminated!

Hearing his father complaining, Shen Zhezi smiled: "The situation is getting clearer and clearer, and it is no longer necessary for his father to stay in the capital again. Kuaiji summer tax is about to take luck, and after the son marrys the princess, he will return home for the full ceremony. It is timely for his father to return home at this time."

When Shen Chong heard Shen Zhezi's words, he felt sad, but he couldn't help but laugh at him, and then sighed: "In the current situation, how can I feel at ease to leave you alone in the capital."

"The situation is still worse than this, and I can also walk through it safely. What's the point of having some trouble in front of me?"

Shen Zhezi was indeed full of confidence. What he was worried about before was that his thoughts about the emperor were only speculated and not confirmed. Therefore, how the situation would develop has been ambiguous. Now the emperor has expressed his opinion that he really has nothing to worry about.

At present, because the emperor's own situation is already worrying, his statement cannot be finalized. However, this support is extremely precious to Shen Zhezi. With this support, he has the reason and basis to persist until the end, and no longer has to worry about being screened out by Zong Zheng in the middle, or he may retreat by himself due to criticism.

He was already invincible, and the rest to do was to kick the Wang family of Langya and Zhang family of Danyang out of the game one by one. He could not even tolerate these two families and stayed until the end, and stood with him to accept the reviews and selections.

"You don't want to be with me, and I don't want to be with you even more! Our father-in-law and son-in-law are all family, how can you let this group of fish cause trouble!"

The emperor can support himself in such a situation. This trust is very heavy. Therefore, Shen Zhezi's favor for the emperor has also surged. Because he is not hesitant to use his last political life to support him. If Shen Zhezi still cannot marry the princess in the end, it is conceivable how the emperor will face a situation where internal and external dissonance and a stagnation from top to bottom!
