But now...

With Wang Xijue's arrival, he was unable to escape in time, and everything changed again. Novel. He sighed softly, then sat there quietly, thinking about what would happen and the plan to deal with it for a while.

A sound of footsteps came, and Luo Xin and Wang Xijue came in together. Zhang Juzheng stood up, and Wang Xijue bowed to Zhang Juzheng and said:

"I've met Mr. Zhang."

"Yuan Yu is here!" Zhang Juzheng also bowed and returned the favor.

Luo Xin asked the two of them to sit down with a smile, and then someone gave Wang Xijue a tea, with a smile on his face. He knew very well in his heart why Wang Xijue came here. This was definitely because Gao Gong learned that Zhang Juzheng was visiting him, and immediately took Wang Xijue to find out the truth. Luo Xin also happened to need Wang Xijue, Gao Gong's confidant, to break Zhang Juzheng's plan and resolve Gao Gong's possible suspicion about him.

"Yuan Yu, you are not the only one who is the representative of Gaoge. Let me support Gaoge's ten taxes, right?"

Wang Xijue looked at Luo Xin, feeling a little strange!

good!

He came on behalf of Gao Gong. One was to see what Zhang Juzheng meant when he visited Luo Xin, and the other was to test Luo Xin on behalf of Gao Gong. Can he support Gao Gong in the matter of ten taxes?

Gao Gong cannot talk directly with Luo Xin, at least he cannot go on the battlefield in the first round. Once Luo Xin rejected it, there will be no room for change. Gao Gong cannot lose Luo Xin as an ally.

but……

Luo Xin, in front of Xu Jie's representative and Zhang Juzheng, said this directly, is it really good?

"Ahem..."

Wang Xijue coughed twice, delaying the time for a while, thinking quickly in his mind, and in just half a breath, he spoke:

"Brother Buqi..."

However, Luo Xin waved his hand to stop Wang Xijue. Of course, he could not let Wang Xijue say it. It would be fine if he didn't say something, but once he said it, it would be difficult to deal with it. It would often cause irreversible consequences.

"Brother Taiyue came to talk to me about the concept of governing the country today, and wanted to convince me to oppose Gao Shegong's ten taxes and one, because this is not governing the country, but chaotic country."

Wang Xijue's face suddenly darkened, and he wanted to refute Zhang Juzheng. Zhang Juzheng sighed in his heart. He did not leave in time, so that Luo Xin could seize the opportunity. Since Luo Xin untied the lid, let Wang Xijue argue with him. Could it be that I, Zhang Juzheng, are you still afraid of him?

Zhang Juzheng became excited and his eyes became bright. However, Luo Xin's voice sounded in time, interrupting the fierce debate that was about to happen to the two people.

"I was still saying that Brother Taiyue has changed!" Luo Xin said with a smile on his face: "Brother Taiyue is here, even if I stay silent after today, I will be rumored outside that Luo Xin and Brother Taiyue have reached a secret agreement."

Wang Xijue's expression changed and he thought to himself: "What a powerful political method. If Luo Xin had not mentioned it, it would have caused Gao Gong's suspicion."

"Brother Buqi, how did you make a decision?"

Wang Xijue spoke. Since Luo Xin made the matter clear, he would ask clearly. It would be better to force Luo Xin to express his position. Moreover, in his opinion, with the relationship between Luo Xin and Xu Jie, coupled with Zhang Juzheng's letter to establish the prince first, Luo Xin and Zhang Juzheng's relationship would never be as harmonious as it seems, but should be very nervous. Luo Xin could not support Xu Jie. After asking this, Luo Xin said that he supported Gao Gong, which achieved unexpected results.

At this time, Zhang Juzheng became nervous. Luo Xin opened the lid so openly. Could it be that he wanted to express his support for Gao Gong?

Luo Xin laughed twice, then picked up the teacup and took a sip, put down the teacup, and said slowly:

"If you are not in your position, you will not do your own affairs! I, Luo Xin, are just a minister of the Ministry of Rites, just do the affairs of the Ministry of Rites. As for the business tax matter, that is what the cabinet masters of the cabinet need to consider."

The flower hall fell into silence, and Zhang Juzheng and Wang Xijue were both in thought.

Zhang Juzheng understood that the purpose of visiting Luo Xin today was that Wang Xijue's arrival had lost its effect. Luo Xin remained neutral and no one supported him, which was as expected. So he sighed and stood up to say goodbye to Luo Xin. Wang Xijue also stood up to say goodbye, and he thought a little more than Zhang Juzheng.

Wang Xijue hurried to Gao Gong's mansion and told Gao Gong in detail. Gao Gong couldn't help but shake his head and sighed:

"This is a condition that I have put forward. If you want him to support me, you must let him enter the cabinet. Otherwise, he will not be in his position and will not do his own affairs!"

"The so do you think about it," Wang Xijue said softly.

Luo Xin solved the crisis and felt relieved. Then he swayed back to the backyard like an old man, entered the room, lay on the bed and said:

"This intrigue is so tiring. It's better to jump on horseback and rush to kill the enemy."

Dai'er walked over and sat on the edge of the bed and said, "Now the world is peaceful, there is no war for you to fight!"

"That's not necessarily." Luo Xin shook his head and said, "When I straighten the court and the child grows up, I can conquer the world with my elder brother and cousin."

"Your heart is so big!" Dai'er clenched her fist and gently hit Luo Xin's chest and said, "By the way, how is my father's affairs?"

"This..." Luo Xinwei said: "I have read the list of reopened ones, but I don't have the name of my father-in-law."

"What should I do? My father is still waiting at home."

"Oh..." Luo Xin sighed and said, "Xu Jie is mainly responsible for this matter. You know my relationship with Xu Jie."

"Is there really no way?"

"It's not completely impossible!" Luo Xin pondered: "The recovery of officials is only the first batch, and there will be the second batch. Moreover, in the cabinet, although Xu Jie is the chief minister, he cannot make arbitrary decisions, and there are Gao Gong, Ma Fang and Yan Na.

Gao Gong and I have been in alliance for a long time. Ma Fang and I have lived and died together, and Yan Na has also been my old superior. I and they can speak."

"I'm sorry for my husband."

"What stupid things are you saying!" Luo Xin raised his hand and touched Dai'er's hair and said, "You have to go back to your parents' home to talk to your father-in-law these days, don't worry. Let me think of a solution."

Midnight.

Luo Xin, who was lying on the bed, opened his eyes, his eyes as bright as stars, and he didn't look like he was asleep at all. He lay on the bed motionless. He had never been asleep at all, and he just pretended to show Dai'er to Dai'er, not wanting Dai'er to worry about him.

Now the court is full of troubles and the storm gathers. At this moment, Luo Xin served as the Minister of Rites and one of the nine ministers. He can be said to be walking on thin ice. Luo Xin, who has experienced a lot, naturally knows how much profit there is and how much risk there is. At this time, be more cautious.

He was only twenty-six years old and ascended the position of Minister of Rites. The Minister of Rites is the most important position among the six ministries. Although it seems that the power is not great, it is only in charge of the Hanlin Academy, the Honglu Temple and the Imperial College. His real power is far less than that of the Ministry of Personnel, the Ministry of Revenue, the Ministry of Justice, etc. However, everyone knows that the Minister of Rites is known as the Prime Minister, just like the Crown Prince. In other words, the Minister of Rites will enter the cabinet in the future, which is something that the other five ministries cannot do.
