Yang Cong didn't know if everyone would be really used to coming to him for partying, but he knew that the people around him would definitely not work like a pile of sand.

Xia Yan and his gang have actually become cliques. They obviously want their leaders to be promoted to the position of chief minister of the cabinet and thus control the power of the court. Whether it is Xia Yan or Yan Song, once they become chief minister of the cabinet, it will be troublesome.

The reason why Xia Yan was cheated by him several times was mainly because he chose the person he didn't choose. At the same time, he didn't expect someone to criticize him in the back. Once he realized this, it would be difficult for him to succeed in the future. Moreover, there was a more powerful Yan Song behind him. If Yan Song was given the power, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Xu Jie was the grandson for Yan Song for more than ten years and finally turned over. A few of the upright people like the Yangming lineage were willing to pretend to be a grandson in front of Yan Song, a treacherous minister. Since they were unwilling to pretend, they had to gather together to fight Xia Yan or even Yan Song. Otherwise, they would likely be defeated by them. Yang Tinghe, Yang Yiqing, Zhang Cong and others were likely to be like this.

Yang Cong knew the difficulties in the future. Xia Yan is nothing now. Yan Song will be terrifying in the future. He doesn't want the group of people he had finally gathered to be defeated by Yan Song. Therefore, even if he is not sure if everyone will get used to it, he will still gather everyone together to try it.

The next day, he sent invitations to the bigwigs he knew in various ways. On the surface, his excuse was that he was about to get married and invited them to have a meal and celebrate, but in fact he wanted to take the opportunity to bring everyone together.

He didn't know what the final result would be, but fortunately, the big guys from all sides were very proud of their face. As soon as the afternoon and the hour of the afternoon, everyone came to his mansion one after another.

This time he gathered not ordinary people. Among the nobles, there were Dingguo Duke Xu Yande, Jingshan Marquis Cui Yuan and Wuding Marquis Guo Xun. Among the officials were Zhang Bangqi, the Minister of Personnel, Nie Bao, the Left Minister of War, Zou Shouyi, the Young Master of the Secretary of the Secretary of the Secretary of the War, and Mu Konghui, the Master of the Hanlin Academy. As for his own relatives and friends, Zhang Yue, the Left Deputy Censor of the Censorate, Lu Bing, the Assistant Commander of the Jinyiwei, and Xu Jie, who was waiting to be assigned officials, were not simple people. Among these people, he was the lowest in the Hanlin Academy compiler of the sixth rank.

Fortunately, he is the owner of the mansion. No matter how polite and humble he is, he will not snatch his position. As for the others, they did not deliberately arrange the seats according to their official positions. Everyone just divided them into three parts based on their closeness and alienation.

As soon as everyone sat down, Yang Cong ordered people to serve wine and food. When the wine and food were served, he politely toasted three times, and then said a little serious: "Everyone, everyone should know that we have offended Lord Xia Yanxia and the others during this period. I think they will definitely not give up."

As soon as he said this, almost everyone here was stunned for a moment, and the originally lively banquet gradually became quiet.

During this period, they did offend Xia Yan's party. They first robbed the position of the Minister of Revenue in Nanjing, and then harmed Xia Yan, but did not treat him as the chief minister of the cabinet. In the end, they directly killed a governor under Xia Yan. It would be strange if they could give up.

Although many of the people here did not participate in the next two things, most of them participated in the first thing. Xia Yan also knew that this guy was quite cruel to the enemy. Since he had met others, it would never be possible to be good.

This is unlucky, who would like to provoke such a bad star? Zhang Cong's powerful character has been tortured to death by others. This guy is not easy to provoke!

Zhang Yue, who was most confused about the situation here, took the lead and said, "Qingfeng, this enemy should be resolved rather than made a fortune. Lord Xia seems to have been warned by the emperor recently. Why don't we find someone to talk about it? Let's just let it go."

You want to forget it, will they forget it?

Besides, did the Emperor warn Xia Yan that he wanted Xia Yan not to fight with us?

Yang Cong reminded implicitly: "My father-in-law, the son-in-law has just entered the officialdom, and he doesn't understand some things very well. When Lord Zhang Cong and Lord Zhang and others were in conflict with Lord Yang Ting and Lord Yang, no one said that he had ever said that he had a relationship? And when Lord Xia Yanxia and others were in conflict with Lord Zhang Cong and Zhang, did the emperor ask them to take a step back?"

this!

Zhang Yue didn't stay in the capital for too long, and after being smeared by Zhang Feng, he had basically never returned to the capital. He didn't know Xia Yan very well. As for Jiajing's thoughts, he couldn't figure it out. He really never thought that Jiajing, the emperor, would deliberately let the court officials below fight with each other.

He still vaguely understood what Yang Cong meant. The situation in the court seemed to be a little wrong. It was not accidental that Yang Tinghe, Yang Yiqing, Zhang Cong and others stepped down one by one.

When he saw that everyone else here looked clear, he simply stopped talking.

After a while, the mature and steadfast Zhang Bang Qi said, "This matter is indeed a bit troublesome. We will not speculate on the emperor's holy intention. Lord Xia Yanxia and the others will not give up. Qingfeng, what do you think? We can't deliberately eliminate dissidents, right?"

This question was asked well, and Yang Cong couldn't help but smile in his heart.

It seems that except for Xu Jie, the others in the Yangming lineage are a bit "pedantic" and do not like to use tricks behind their backs.

No wonder Yan Song has been able to maintain the government for more than ten years in history, and these weak opponents are indeed far behind him.

Yang Cong thought about it and then said carefully: "We cannot deliberately eliminate dissidents, but can those with ability still promote them? Only when our own strength is strong can we shock the little ones."

What he meant was to be nepotism. Sometimes the struggle in the court was so simple. Either excluding dissidents or nepotism. Since these people could not do anything to eliminate dissidents, then the matter of excluding dissidents was left to him. As long as they were responsible, they would be able to do it.

If it were the case before, Zhang Bangqi would definitely be unhappy when he heard this. He was a righteous person and he would really not do it if he asked him to be nepotist.

However, after he thought about it carefully, he stopped talking.

This guy Xia Yan is really too ruthless. If you don’t want to deal with it, you will definitely suffer a big loss. This can be understood from Zhang Cong’s experience.

Zhang Bangqi's failure to say anything meant to agree. Yang Cong couldn't help but feel happy. He then hit the railway while it was hot: "Master Zhang, you may not have noticed it. From the Zhengde Dynasty, until now, there were nine imperial examinations, the first three, and even the second-level one, none of them entered the cabinet, and none even became the high position of the Six Ministers of the Secretariat."

Zhang Bangqi really didn't pay attention to these things. After thinking about it carefully, he couldn't help but say shocked: "These people are too much!"

Yang Cong nodded repeatedly and said, "Yes, they are too much, and some people are very resentful. Perhaps, the emperor also saw some clues, and replaced all the Ministers of Personnel in the north and south capitals with ours."

This means that the enemy's enemies are friends, and there are many people who can fight for it, it depends on how to fight for it.
