Ma Qingshan walked in from outside again, smiled and first filled Luo Xin's teacup with water, and then sat down.?

At this time, a war in the palace was taking place.

Under the leadership of Xu Jie and Gao Gong, the officials shouted long live the mountain, and then returned to their respective seats and stood in a state of solemnity. Huang Jin shouted in his voice:

"Your Majesty has an order, report it early if you have anything to do, and leave the court without any matter."

Zhang Juzheng came out and said, "I will report to Your Majesty, I will report it."

"Tell me!" Emperor Jiajing said a word lightly.

"Abide by the order!" Zhang Juzheng said: "Zhao, the Minister of Personnel, is old, especially in the past six months, he has only been sick for two months. According to the rules, he should dismiss his official position because he is sick and old, and choose another talented person."

Zhao Zhenji's face turned red. His body was indeed uncomfortable these days, but after several months of recuperation, he had recovered a lot. He felt that he would be able to recover in another year or two. At this time, Emperor Jiajing's eyes also looked over and said:

"Is Zhao Qing in good health?"

"Yes!" Zhao Zhenji walked out.

"Have you hired an imperial physician?"

"Thank you, Your Majesty, I have invited you, and the Imperial Doctor said that it won't take long to recover."

Zhang Juzheng's eyes froze and looked at Zhao Zhenji. Zhao Zhenji felt bitter in his heart. He knew that he should follow Zhang Juzheng's words and say that he was in poor health and returned home. Because his son Zhao Dingzhu was caught, if he was willing to return home and give up his position as Minister of Rites, Xu Jie would let go of this matter. If he refused to give up his position, Zhang Juzheng would immediately impeach Zhao Dingzhu.

However, Zhao Zhenji was originally a righteous person, and Gao Gong instructed him not to immediately agree to retire and return home, so he gritted his teeth and threw his son aside and said in the court that he would recover soon. However, when he saw Zhang Juzheng's sharp eyes, his heart hangs up, knowing that Zhang Juzheng was about to impeach his son. He couldn't help but sigh in his heart, and his whole body and mind felt weak.

When Zhang Juzheng saw that although Zhao Zhenji's face turned pale in an instant, his eyes were full of firmness. He knew that Zhao Zhenji had made up his mind. His face turned cold and he was about to speak again. At this moment, he saw Yan Na leave the shift and said:

"Your Majesty, I have a memorandum. I want to impeach Hu Zongxian."

Xu Jie's eyes were fixed. He didn't know that Hu Zongxian and Luo Xin had secretly joined forces. Now Zhang Shijie is joining forces with the Xu Mansion to annex the Ming Hai Trade, which absolutely requires the support of Hu Zongxian. Without Hu Zongxian, it will become very difficult. Once Hu Zongxian is dismissed from office, he will send a Gao Gong person to the southeast to replace Hu Zongxian, and there will be even more hope.

It was not appropriate to cancel Zhao Zhenji but lose Hu Zongxian. At least at present, the Xu Party cannot be without Hu Zongxian. By the time the Ming Hai Trade Fair was annexed, whether Hu Zongxian was dismissed from office at that time had little effect on Xu Jie.

Of course, even at that time, Hu Zongxian must be protected, otherwise he would be considered as Xu Jie who would destroy the bridge across the river. Who would follow him?

Therefore, Xu Jie quickly made a decision in his heart, let go of Zhao Zhenji's affairs first, and then impeach Zhao Zhenji after the Ming Dynasty's sea trade was over. So Xu Jie decisively walked out of the court and said:

"Your Majesty, Lord Zhao is experienced and the Ming Dynasty needs Lord Zhao."

Yan Na's expression was stagnant, and he couldn't help but look at Gao Gong, and Gao Gong shook his head slightly. He didn't want to do anything that both sides were hurt. In his opinion, impeachment of Hu Zongxian was far from being important than saving Zhao Zhenji.

Seeing Gao Gong shook his head, Yan Na stopped talking. Emperor Jiajing's eyes shifted from Xu Jie's body to Zhao Zhenji, and said warmly:

"Zhao Qing takes care of her health, I need you."

"Thank you Your Majesty!" Zhao Zhenji's expression relaxed.

Emperor Jiajing looked at Yan Na again, and Yan Na hurriedly picked a few unpainable things to impeach Hu Zongxian. Emperor Jiajing said lightly:

"Get out first."

Yan Na retreated, and Xu Jie's heart moved. From Emperor Jiajing's tone, he felt that Emperor Jiajing had no intention of dealing with Hu Zongxian at all. If he wanted to deal with Hu Zongxian, there would have been so many impeachments before, Emperor Jiajing would have dealt with it long ago, and now he has said something lightly.

"This... seems to be a mistake! Even if I don't give up impeaching Zhao Zhenji, Emperor Jiajing may not be able to deal with Hu Zongxian!"

If he had known at this time, Luo Xin had already protected Hu Zongxian and Emperor Jiajing agreed not to move Hu Zongxian, Xu Jie would be so angry that he would vomit blood.

"No!" Xu Jie's heart suddenly moved, and a thought suddenly appeared in his heart, "Your Majesty's attitude was not clear before. It was after Luo Xin returned to Beijing to meet His Majesty, and His Majesty's attitude seemed to have become unwilling to touch Hu Zongxian. Could it be that Luo Xin was protecting Hu Zongxian?

but……

Why did Luo Xin protect Hu Zongxian?

Could it be... Hu Zongxian and Luo Xin secretly joined forces?"

Xu Jie immediately broke out in a cold sweat. If Hu Zongxian and Luo Xin really joined forces, it would not be annexation of the Ming Hai Trade. I have to consider whether the southeast would be a trap and wait for him to jump down.

At this time, Yuxi's palace was very depressed because Emperor Jiajing stopped talking and no one spoke. Moreover, Emperor Jiajing did not say he had to retreat to the court, but just glanced over them coldly like a knife.

In fact, Emperor Jiajing was very angry and even a little embarrassed.

Xu Jie's one-party impeachment of Zhao Zhenji, nothing is there. Gao Gong's one-party counterattack, and Hu Zongxian alone has nothing.

Emperor Jiajing was not only not angry, but also very happy.

As an emperor, what he likes most is the art of balance. He likes court officials to fight. Otherwise, the court officials will be hugged together and it will be his turn to sleep. As long as there is a party dispute, he can serve as a referee.

only……

In today's situation, it is no longer that Xu Jie and Gao Gong are fighting against each other, and he is the referee. Instead, both sides are playing tricks on him as the referee.

Xu Jie's one-party slander Zhao Zhenji, and then when he saw Gao Gong impeach Hu Zongxian, he immediately retreated. Instead, Xu Jie stood up and said that the Ming Dynasty was inseparable from Zhao Zhenji.

Are you kidding me?

Do you think of me as an emperor as a fool?

Let’s look at Gao Gong. When Xu Jie said he would not impeach Zhao Zhenji, Yan Na immediately chose a few things that were not painful. Isn’t this humiliating Emperor Jiajing’s IQ?

How could Emperor Jiajing not be angry?

I'm the referee!

How can you not treat me as a referee at all, play fake football there, and play fake football blatantly?

Therefore, Emperor Jiajing was very angry at this time, but he couldn't find a vent and didn't want to just suffocate, so he sat there coldly.
