Chapter 37: The Rebellion of Tian Gang Yan Shifan

Yan Shaoting deliberately made time difference to go to Prince Yu's Mansion today.

Naturally, it was just like any other day, I recounted the general events of the day without any exaggeration.

However, Prince Yu’s reaction today was somewhat surprising to Yan Shaoting.

During this period, Prince Yu repeatedly made overt gestures of goodwill, appeasement and winning over the emperor.

This was something Yan Shaoting had not expected.

After declining Prince Yu's invitation to join the dinner, he rode his horse back to Yan's Mansion.

As soon as he arrived at the mansion, Yan Shaoting saw Yan Shifan's sedan chair parked at the door.

Yan Shaoting got off the horse and walked to the sedan chair: "Father."

No matter what Yan Shifan did, Yan Shaoting could not sever the father-son relationship.

What's more, if Yan Shifan could be stabilized and made to do less stupid things in the future, it would be good for the Yan family and himself.

Yan Shifan, who had not yet stepped out of the sedan chair, snorted coldly when he heard the noise outside, then stepped out of the sedan chair with a sullen face.

Yan Shifan stepped out of the sedan chair and glanced at Yan Shaoting calmly, then said quietly: "I heard that you were rewarded by His Majesty in Yuxi Palace today and entered the Hanlin Academy to serve as a Hanlin reader."

Yan Shaoting nodded and said, "It is true."

Yan Shifan hummed, but he felt mixed emotions.

After all, this rebellious son in front of him is also his own son.

As his son can get promoted and make money, he naturally feels proud as a father.

He said that today he was in the Ministry of Works, and after the lightning experiment at Yongding Gate was finished, his colleagues from the Ministry of Works came back and surrounded him to flatter him.

When the news about Yuxi Palace reached the Ministry of Works, there was another round of even more enthusiastic praise.

Listening to flattering words such as 'good parenting' and 'three prime ministers in one family'.

That made Yan Shifan feel as if he was floating in the air.

but.

Yan Shifan, however, felt somewhat annoyed and resentful, because because of this rebellious son, he was now unable to serve in the cabinet, which made him feel completely ashamed.

Even though he has reached his current position, he does not have a proper background. It was only because of his father that he entered the court as a student of the Imperial Academy.

Not to mention being a reader in the Hanlin Academy.

Yan Shifan himself was also jealous of such a noble official position.

Seeing that the rebellious son agreed quickly.

Yan Shifan just nodded, and then said: "Your Majesty favors you, but you must not be arrogant. You are still young, serving your grandfather in the cabinet, so you should talk less and listen more, and you must not make random comments on state affairs."

Yan Shaoting naturally nodded one by one.

But there was a strange feeling in my heart.

In this world, no matter what a father is like, even someone like Yan Shifan will still guide his son in the right direction when it comes to his education.

But listening to it now, it feels a bit weird and strange.

Yan Shifan then said solemnly: "As for your job in Prince Yu's Mansion, don't get too close to hypocrites like Xu Jie and Gao Gong! Otherwise, you will be tainted with vulgarity! It will ruin the future of our Yan family!"

Hearing this, Yan Shaoting couldn't help but feel happy.

But after Yan Shifan finished speaking, he no longer had the heart to talk to his rebellious son and took his men into the Yan Mansion on his own.

Return to your own study in the courtyard.

Yan Shifan immediately called his advisor Mao Wenlong.

Mao Wenlong came before Yan Shifan and bowed, "Young Lord is back."

Yan Shifan nodded and asked, "Any news from the southeast?"

Mao Wenlong shook his head and said, "I wrote to the southeast before, and I think the news from there will be transmitted back in the next two days."

Yan Shifan nodded and pondered for a long time.

Then he said, "We still can't leave all the affairs of the southeast to Hu Zongxian. With Zhang Juzheng in the southeast, bad things might happen."

Mao Wenlong stepped forward and whispered, "What does the young minister mean?"

Yan Shifan looked up at his advisor and said, "Although my father proposed this matter before the Emperor, it was Zhang Juzheng who was assigned to do it. What would happen if Zhang Taiyue really accomplished this task?"

Mao Wenlong thought for a while before speaking: "If Zhang Juzheng succeeds in this matter, the emperor will naturally be very happy, and the upright people will probably celebrate."

"So, I can't let Zhang Juzheng accomplish this!" Yan Shifan sneered and spoke in a gloomy tone.

"Ah?" The master looked surprised.

Yan Shifan looked up at his advisor and said coldly, "What? If Zhang Juzheng succeeds in this and gets money for His Majesty and the court, doesn't that mean that my Yan Party is incompetent?"

After the surprise, Mao Wenlong nodded and said, "Young Lord is wise."

Yan Shifan snorted, "So we must not let Zhang Juzheng succeed."

Mao Wenlong asked: "So what should we do now?"

Yan Shifan frowned and looked at Mao Wenlong, then waved his hand and said, "Write a letter to Zheng Michang and He Maocai in Zhejiang, asking them to mess up the job no matter what. Then we can push the blame onto Zhang Juzheng and say that the bad guys are Zhang Juzheng and the group of people behind him!"

Mao Wenlong was a little worried, and could not help but remind him in a low voice: "But this matter was proposed by Lord Yan, and Zhang Juzheng was recommended by the young master. His Majesty is also waiting for money. If it fails..."

"idiot!"

Yan Shifan immediately shouted angrily, then slapped the board and said: "We must let Zhang Juzheng mess up, then we can do it! Then, the credit will naturally be ours!"

Seeing that the young cabinet minister was angry, Mao Wenlong did not dare to say anything more. He hurriedly took paper and pen to write a letter to Zheng Michang and He Maocai in Zhejiang.

And this situation.

But this was something Yan Shaoting had not expected.

Originally, the Qingliu were unwilling to let the Yan Party accomplish this task, but now it has become that the Yan Party wants to ruin the task done by Zhang Juzheng and the Qingliu.

It's really the opposite of Tiangang.

At this moment, Yan Shaoting was in the courtyard behind the wall in the backyard of Yan's mansion.

This place is also the private property of the Yan family, but it is never revealed on weekdays.

Now it has become a place where Yan Shaoting can use it.

At this time, Zhu Shitai, Xu Wenbi and Zhang Yuangong were gathered in a house in the courtyard. They looked at Yan Shaoting who had just arrived, and there was a hint of accusation in their eyes.

After Yan Shaoting walked in, he only took a glance and immediately clasped his fists: "Brother-in-law! Brother Xu, Brother Zhang, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting!"

Xu Wenbi and Zhang Yuangong looked gloomy.

Zhu Shitai snorted, "We dare not let Yan Shidu wait here."

This sounds a bit jealous.

Today, the three of them were banished from the capital and were going to suffer in the southeastern anti-Japanese army.

However, Yan Shaoting was promoted and became rich because of his lightning experiments and became a reader in the Hanlin Academy.

Yan Shaoting had a clear understanding of the psychology of the three people.

He smiled and said, "The three elder brothers are generous, so don't blame the younger brother."

Xu Wenbi tapped the table with his fingers at this time: "Let's talk about what we should do after we go to the Southeast Anti-Japanese Army? When can we return to the capital?"

As Xu Wenbi asked the question, Zhu Shitai and Zhang Yuangong also became serious.

This is what they need to know most right now.

If there is no possibility of returning after going to the southeast, they would just give up now.

Yan Shaoting said in a deep voice: "Now the southeast needs to increase silk production, and it will be sold overseas in the future. The court has decided to let Qi Jiguang, Yu Dayou and others recruit troops.

This time, the three brothers are going to the southeast. They probably won’t really serve as ordinary soldiers, but they must be careful in their duties in the army of Qi Jiguang and Yu Dayou.”

Zhu Shitai waved his hand and said, "We all know this. We also know that there is no joking in the army. We should follow orders."

Zhang Yuangong also said: "Qi Jiguang and Yu Dayou in the southeast are both talented generals, so you can rest assured that we will not conflict with them."

Yan Shaoting looked at the three of them silently.

Naturally, they did not dare to cause conflict. Otherwise, as long as they were in the army, even if they were severely beaten, no one would be able to plead for them.

Yan Shaoting added: "As for the three brothers returning to the capital, they must serve in the Southeast Army and participate in the construction of the new anti-Japanese army. If they can lead their own troops, it will be the day for them to lead their troops back to the capital!"

Led the troops back to Beijing.

This statement came out.

Zhu Shitai and the other two's faces changed.

Zhu Shitai, the elder brother-in-law, looked at Yan Shaoting with a nervous expression.

"You want to rebel!"
