Chapter 622: The City Head Changes the King's Flag(2/2)

As soon as Xu Jie entered his office room, he saw a figure rushing towards him.

"Gei, I'm wronged!"

At first, he took Xu Jie down one, but when he looked closely, it was Zou Yinglong, so he pulled Zou Yinglong to the chair, pressed him on the chair and sat down. He poured a cup of tea for Zou Yinglong. When he saw Zou Yinglong, he stood up in panic and signaled him to sit down. Then Xu Jie also sat down and said:

"Yinglong, I'll be wronged this time. But don't worry, you'll just be unemployed at home for a few years. I will soon let you return to the court. At that time, the position will only be higher than now, and will not be lower than now."

A trace of disappointment appeared in Zou Yinglong's eyes, knowing that Xu Jie was going to abandon him. But he had no choice. As long as Xu Jie did not protect him, he could not escape this disaster at all. However, when he heard Xu Jie's promise to him, a hint of hope arose in his heart. He knew that he had only Xu Jie, a big tree, now, so he stood up and bowed to Xu Jie:

"Yinglong listens to Master Ying, Master Yinglong will do whatever he asks him to do."

Xu Jie nodded with satisfaction and said, "Don't worry, I just let you go home and work for a while and take a break."

Soon, Zou Yinglong was dismissed from office. Zou Yinglong seemed to have known his ending for a long time, so he had packed his luggage. On the day of dismissal, he took Jiaxiao away from the capital and returned to his hometown.

The back garden of Luo Mansion.

Jinyang Jiujie sat around in front of the flowers. Luo Zhi drank a glass of wine, smashed it, and said:

"A few days ago, Zou Yinglong's mansion was full of traffic. Today, he left Beijing and there was no one to see him off. It's so cold that the world is so cold!"

"How did you know no one would see you off?" Zhou Yu asked curiously.

"Hehe..." Luo Zhi laughed dryly and said, "I went to see it secretly!"

Everyone looked at each other and laughed, then said in unison: "It's so boring!"

"Why is this boring?" Luo Zhi was anxious and put down the wine glass in his hand and said, "Don't say it, I really found a problem when I followed him this time."

"What's the problem?" Everyone looked solemn.

Luo Zhi said with a strange look: "I don't think Zou Yinglong's face is a little depressed, and his expression is very calm. How could this happen? When his reputation was booming, he was suddenly dismissed from office and no one went to see him off. How could he look calm?"

Everyone fell silent. After a while, Luo Xin sighed softly: "That's because he knows that he will definitely come back."

"Come back?" Luo Zhi was startled: "Will your Majesty reuse him again?"

Luo Xin nodded and said softly: "It's not this Your Majesty!"

Luo Zhi was slightly stunned, and then suddenly realized. Now all the officials in the Ming Dynasty knew that Emperor Jiajing's body was no longer good. He had fainted several times and just waited for Emperor Jiajing to die. At that time, if Xu Jie was still the chief minister of the cabinet, it would not be difficult to use Zou Yinglong again.

"Then...we are we busy in vain?" Luo Zhi asked unwillingly.

"That depends on how Gao Gong does it!" Luo Xin said with a smile: "We don't need to worry about future things, we only need time to grow."

"Yes!" Tao Xingyan said: "If Xu Jie fell down like this and let Gao Gong be completely in power, it may not be a good thing for us."

"Oh!" Luo Xin sighed and said, "We don't want to form a party, we just want to be right to things and not people. But now the Ming Dynasty has become a wrong to people and not things."

"Oh!" Everyone sighed.

Before the time passed, Luo Xin and others truly saw the right things in the Ming Dynasty. Gao Gong took advantage of the opportunity that Emperor Jiajing was angry with Xu Jie and submitted memorials repeatedly, first mentioned Li Chunfang as the Minister of Personnel, and then successively dismissed some Xu Party officials, and promoted a group of Gao Gong's one-party officials.

It’s really a big king’s flag that changes to the city wall!
