Chapter 140: A traitor appeared in the revolutionary ranks (Subscription required)
Have the Yan family’s watchdog been replaced?

no one knows.

But Yan Shifan was very drunk that day.

afterwards.

There are rumors.

That night, the young cabinet minister hugged the Yan family's dog and talked drunkenly all night.

The next day, the dog was isolated by the pack of dogs inside and outside the mansion.

At the same time, officials from various departments in the capital turned their attention to the vacant quartermaster position.

Yan Shaoting really became more well-behaved.

He returned to the small table at the door of Wenyuan Pavilion's classroom on time and went to work.

The first thing.

Just according to the rules, Gao Hanwen from the Hanlin Academy was asked to write a letter of honor and send it to the Jinyiwei Yamen of the imperial guards, requesting the Jinyiwei to work with the Eastern Depot to find out the causes of the Xiyuan Incident as soon as possible and to bring the real culprit behind the gunshot to justice.

Yan Shaoting had never even been to the Jinyiwei Yamen.

Instead, after the Jinyiwei received the imperial edict, they filed it according to the rules and sent Zhu Qi, a captain of the Northern Pacification Division, to Wenyuan Pavilion in person to receive training and instructions from the Imperial Academy Reader of the Ming Dynasty, the Right Secretary of the Right Spring Office of the Zhanshi Palace, and the Langzhong of the Zhejiang Qingli Division of the Ministry of Revenue.

all.

Gao Hanwen, editor of the Hanlin Academy and secretary of the Secretariat, was present to witness the event.

All subsequent detailed instructions and plans of both parties shall be recorded and archived.

Subsequently.

The cabinet assistant minister Gao Ge Lao fully affirmed and recognized the work performance of Yan Shidu, who served in the cabinet.

He also said that he would let his sons and nephews learn more from Yan Shidu in the future.

During this period, the cabinet assistant minister Yuan Ge Lao said that what Gao Ge Lao said was right, and he learned from Gao Ge Lao and wanted his sons and nephews at home to study more with Yan Shidu.

As for the Deputy Minister Xu Ge Lao who is also a cabinet minister?
Lord Xu has been in poor health recently and has already reported his illness to the government and is recuperating at home.

The cabinet agreed on the spot and requested that the imperial physician from the Imperial Medical Bureau be sent to visit Lord Xu at his home to examine him.

Later, the cabinet made it clear that Lord Xu was devoted to the country and the people, and that he was indeed sick at home because of his heavy work on state affairs.

The court should not prevent Lord Xu from having a rest just because he has outstanding talents.

This is inhumane!

As for Lord Xu, who is respected and loved by everyone, it is hard to say how long it will take for him to return to his beloved position as the Second Assistant to the Cabinet.

There are just rumors circulating.

According to an anonymous source, the Shangbao Division seems to be a little uneasy these days, and there seems to be a conflict in the government office.

Then, the curious people in Beijing found out about it from somewhere.

It turned out that the son of Lord Xu and the son of Lord Gao were both officials in the Shangbao Division, serving as Shangbao Division Minister and Shangbao Division Secretary respectively.

Both of them had a conflict for the sake of the Ming Dynasty and the country's affairs. They are both loyal to the country, and outsiders should stop watching the fun.

But soon.

There are two rumors in the market.

Lord Xu, who was sick at home, actually beat his son, who was the Minister of Shangbao, severely.

Later that evening.

There are rumors again.

After Gao Ge Lao returned home from the cabinet, he also beat his son who worked as the Shangbao Si Cheng in the Shangbao Si.

In short.

There have been many rumors circulating in Beijing recently.

This forced the Shuntian Prefecture Government and the Daxing County Government to step in and post notices in conspicuous locations throughout the city, demanding that the people of the capital not believe or spread rumors, and to abide by the law and be law-abiding residents of the capital, setting an example and taking the lead for the people of the two capitals and thirteen provinces of the Ming Dynasty.

It's just what people say.

Yan Shaoting, who had initially done everything according to the rules, did not say a word.

He arrived at Wenyuan Pavilion on time every day to work. After having lunch in the cabinet, he went to the Zhejiang Qinglisi Public Office of the Ministry of Revenue to work. When it was almost time to get off work, he went to Prince Yu's Mansion to perform his duties as the prince's tutor.

Of course, considering that the prince is still in his infancy.

Yan Shidu could only make work reports to His Royal Highness Prince Yu.

This day.

As usual, Yan Shaoting sat in the Ministry of Revenue for a while, then left and rushed to Prince Yu's Mansion.

Arrived at Prince Yu’s Mansion.

Prince Yu Zhu Zaigui had already been waiting in the front hall of the palace.

Seeing Yan Shaoting coming on time as usual from afar, Zhu Zaigui quickly stood up with a smile on his face and walked over.

"Master Yan!"

"Hurry up and take your seats. Pour tea for Master Yan."

Zhu Zaigui seemed very busy and asked Yan Shaoting to sit down, then he said with expectation: "Yesterday, Master Yan just talked about Luzon and the southeastern vassal states. Today, we should talk about Tianzhu, which is further west... It is the Mughal Empire that Master Yan mentioned."

The curiosity and interest on Prince Yu's face were very strong.

Yan Shaoting glanced at the future master of the Ming Dynasty with a smile on his face.

I don’t know when the royal education of the Ming Dynasty started to change.

It is clear that the attitude of the Taizu and Taizong dynasties, and even during the Renzong and Xuanzong periods, was to open their eyes to the world.

Suddenly, as if overnight, the rulers and ministers of the Ming Dynasty lost interest in anything outside.

Just like the current Prince Yu Zhu Zaigui.

His information still remains in the period of Taizu and Taizong.

New things and knowledge always make people more curious and spontaneously generate a desire to explore.

Yan Shaoting shook his head and said, "Your Highness, I have not yet finished sorting out the affairs of the Mughal Empire. I have to wait until I have finished talking with Bai Fugui and have verified everything before I can tell Your Highness."

A trace of disappointment flashed in Zhu Zaigui's eyes, but he still nodded and said, "Yes, yes. We are separated by an ocean, and Master Yan has always been steady in his work, so I have to get to know him first." Yan Shaoting looked at Zhu Zaigui who seemed to be talking to himself, and suddenly wondered if this Prince Yu had some mental problems that no one knew about because he had stayed in this palace for too long.

Then, Zhu Zaigui said with a smile on his face: "However, if Master Yan had not taught me, I would not have known that those foreign countries outside were so wonderful and vivid."

Yan Shaoting said casually, "If Your Majesty is interested, you can go there by boat to have a look in the future."

"what?"

Zhu Zaigui was surprised and shook his head repeatedly: "No, no! A gentleman does not stand on a dangerous wall. Besides, without the order of Your Majesty, how can I leave the capital without permission, let alone take a ship across the sea to those small foreign countries."

After saying this, Zhu Zaigui lowered his head.

It was difficult to see the dazed expression on his face.

Not long after.

Zhu Zaigui raised his head again, his face back to normal, looked at Yan Shaoting, and said with a smile: "I heard that the streets have been quite lively recently, and people are talking about it. Did Gao Wuguan really... have a fight with Xu Kun?"

Gao Wuguan was the son and only son of Gao Gong.

Xu Kun was the second son of Xu Jie, and his younger brother Xu Ying married Lu Bing's third daughter.

Yan Shaoting blinked, feeling confused.

How come when the news reached Prince Yu's Mansion, it became a fight between Gao Wuguan and Xu Kun?
How come those people...

What are the people talking about!
Yan Shaoting immediately smiled and shook his head: "It was just that Xu Shaoqing and Gao Shaocheng had an argument over official business in the Shangbaosi Yamen. There was no such thing as a fight."

Zhu Zaiqi's eyes flashed with disappointment again, and then he said with a smile: "It's good that they didn't fight, it's good that they didn't fight. But, what did they argue about?"

Yan Shaoting replied truthfully: "I have been working in Wenyuan Pavilion recently, supervising the case of the Xiyuan Incident. I just heard that Xu Shaoqing and Gao Shaocheng seemed to have a dispute over military supplies..."

"what?"

Zhu Zaigui was puzzled and asked, "The Shangbaosi is in charge of imperial seals, tokens, seals, etc. How can it be related to military supplies?"

Yan Shaoting shook his head: "I don't know, maybe because of the military supply mission, the court may have to adjust the official system, so the Shangbaosi has a connection."

In fact, Yan Shaoting naturally knew the real reason.

Because Xu Jie was ill at home, Gao Gong was praised by the court's upright officials for his previous efforts to restrict the emperor's interference in military power.

The Xu family felt that Gao Gong was a traitor and a betrayer in the anti-Yan team.

Now that the Ministry of Revenue has obtained the power of military supplies, it is directly related to the cabinet.

The Xu family felt that the Gao family was trying to seize power in the anti-Yan team led by their family.

The Ministry of Personnel seemed to be intent on pushing Xu Kun to get a job in military supplies.

Although it was the intention of the Ministry of Personnel.

But as everyone knows, Lord Xu is in charge of the Ministry of Personnel in the cabinet.

Then there is Gaowu Temple.

He felt that the Gao family was being wronged and that the Xu family was just jealous of them and were now interfering in the affairs of the Ministry of Revenue.

Naturally I am not happy about it.

of course.

During this period, the Ministry of Revenue also intended to recommend Gao Wuguan for an official position in military supplies.

This was entirely the chain reaction triggered by Old Yan's instruction to Yan Shaoting to put the matter of filling vacant official positions in military supplies affairs on hold.

According to Old Yan's meaning, Yan Shaoting realized it.

Just let the bullet fly for a while.

After all parties have fought for a while over military supplies, it will be time for him to take the stage.

Hence the current situation.

The Xu family believed that the Gao family had betrayed the anti-Yan team.

The Gao family also believed that the Xu family had betrayed everyone and was only occupying positions without doing anything.

Of course, Zhu Zaigui naturally did not understand the interests involved in these matters.

The only person around him who can understand him, Tan Lun, is still in Zhejiang.

After listening to the explanation, Zhu Zaigui just muttered in a low voice: "We should still value peace. After all, it is all for the court and the Ming Dynasty."

Yan Shaoting stood up and said, "Your Highness is teaching me that I have just finished my work on the Xiyuan Incident, so I will take on the task of military supplies so that the noise outside can be stopped as soon as possible."

Seeing that Yan Shaoting was about to leave.

Zhu Zaigui also stood up and walked in front of Yan Shaoting.

His expression was serious, as if he was entrusting someone with something.

"Master Yan, the words His Majesty said in Yuxi Palace a few days ago were full of sincerity and sincerity."

"The court cannot do without Master Yan now."

"I hope Master Yan will take the trouble to complete these tasks."

After some earnest words.

Zhu Zaiqi added: "Master Yan should also persuade Master Xu's family and Master Gao's family as much as possible, and never hurt the harmony. Although I cannot interfere in the government, I will definitely do my best to help Master Yan with what he wants to do!"

Why does it make it seem like you're entrusting an orphan to someone else?
Yan Shaoting was a little surprised and looked at Zhu Zaigui with curiosity, who had a serious expression on his face.

He bowed his hands and said, "I will not let your Highness down. I will do my best to make the Xu family and the Gao family work together to create a prosperous Ming Dynasty!"

After finishing speaking, Yan Shaoting slowly stepped back.

After knowing that Yan Shaoting had completely left Prince Yu’s Mansion.

Zhu Zaigui, who had been standing in the front hall, withdrew his gaze and his whole body went limp.

Lamented.

Slowly retreat back to your seat.
