Chapter 882: The secret flow of the capital

The private banquet was quite strange. Wu Zuolai and the other three were both smiling and indulging in gentleness, but the brother Yao, who was sitting in the guest of honor, looked full of anger.

Hearing the words "Iron Bones" he sneered, picked up the wine cup in front of him and raised it all, picked up the chopsticks and ate a few bites of the food. The maid came over and filled it again. The worn-out brother Yao looked up and down, blushing his face. Then he turned his head and said:

"What's the use of being strong and strong? During the Chinese New Year, the family can't afford a few meals of breasts, and they can't afford such a beautiful and beautiful dress."

Wu Zuolai lowered his head slightly, concealing the angry look that flashed across his face, looked up but smiled again, and said:

"Who doesn't know that Yao Bo and Brother Yao are very talented? Now the girl is just sixteen years old and has always admired talented people. If Brother Yao doesn't dislike him, what if he gives Brother Yao a pillow mat?"

"oh?"

Yao Bo spoke in shock, and then honestly changed the maid with his hands. The maid screamed and hurriedly avoided it. Yao Bo sniffed his palm and said:

"Since Lord Wu is so kind, I'll be disrespectful. It smells so good, so fragrant."

With such a desperate and despicable look, the few people on the table exchanged expressions, all of whom were quite disdainful, but they all smiled. Wu Zuolai said:

"A real famous scholar is romantic. Brother Yao looks like this, he really has the style of the Wei and Jin Dynasties."

Yao Bo was there just staring at the milk nut, and after eating a few bites, he stopped. When he heard Wu Zuo say this, he only sneered there and said:

"Yao is just a Shanxi Censor and Yao's family business is ruined. Yao's teacher died early. In the future, he will be a person who will be in this position and can do nothing. I don't know what Wu Siye wants to use me. He has done such a lot of work. Tsk, this woman needs five taels of silver even if she is in a kiln!

Unexpectedly, Yao Bo spoke so directly. Wu Zuolai coughed dryly and winked at the side. The man next to him immediately smiled and said:

"Yao Bo, you are crazy again. You and I are the same year. It's just a gathering at this time. Who doesn't know that Brother Wu is hospitable and generous, but you are talking about so much.

After complaining, someone on the other side sighed and said:

"Since our Ming Dynasty's evil spirit Wang Tong came out, everything has become wrong. This world is not the same as before. Tell me, the order of the elders and young people is the unshakable way of etiquette. The saints said that the ancestors and ancestors of the Ming Dynasty also set this rule, but look at what the theaters and operas in the capital are playing in the country. It is actually the wisest and the grand ceremony is abolished. So what kind of wiseness is there? It's extremely ridiculous. Sooner or later, the country is going to be unnatural."

Wu Zuolai also sighed and said in a deep voice:

"Everyone knows what those dramas refer to, but Gong doesn't make it clear, so it's hard to expose it below. However, Wu got the news that Gong would make a news soon, saying that Gong would make his mother the crown prince.

"How can this be done? This is really against human ethics. If someone submits a memorial and proposes for the world, maybe the palace will not be like this."

"That's right, right, there must be someone who dares to speak out."

Several people sang and reunion, but Yao Bo kept drinking the chopsticks there, and the wine was also drunk. Hearing this, he put the chopsticks and cups on the table and said with a sneer:

"I dare to write and I dare to report the report now in the Censorate. I am the one you are looking for. You don't want to stand up, so you have to find someone to be the one who stands out, right?"

He said this directly, and the people in the room were silent, their faces became awkward, and one of them coughed dryly and said:

"Brother Yao misunderstood. We have to participate in such righteous things. How could there be a first and then?"

"Twenty thousand taels of silver, three acres of villages in Guangping Prefecture. My eleven-year-old son will have the reputation of a scholar this year. I will write this memorial and I will never involve a few people. If the silver and the farm are obtained, I will make a memorial, even if I am trying my best to advise the Daming Gate."

Everyone in the room looked bad, but Wu Zuolai smiled and said calmly:

"Thirty thousand taels of silver, the village in Guangping Mansion can also add mills and oil mills. The fame will last until the year. Before the next day, the silver and land deeds can be sent to Brother Yao's mansion. But this memorial?"

"Don't worry, I will stay at Wu Siye's place for one night tonight, and the maid will also store it here first, otherwise the wife at home will not rely on it."

Wu Zuolai nodded and said:

"It's easy to say, it's easy to say, and the clean room has been prepared."

He said that he had not finished speaking, Yao Bo had already stood up and pulled the maid and said:

"It's a short time, Yao went to enjoy it first, and I'll use it slowly."

While he was talking, he actually took the maid away. When he left the house, everyone looked at each other in front of him. Only after a while did someone say hell:

"I really don't know how this kind of village cliché passed the palace examination back then and became the same year as you and me. If it weren't for the big thing, how could he have sat with him!"

Wu Zuolai was much calmer at this time, and smiled and shook his head and said:

"His family was also well off back then, but someone had a tangle with private salt. Baeksheng was investigated by private salt from Tianjin Wei. If he had recognized it, it would be fine. But he wanted to gather the brave people in the village to find them back, but the family was destroyed. If he hadn't seen the opportunity, even Yao Bo would not be able to escape, because of this, he had a deep hatred for Wang Tong. Besides, he had no money or power, and he would never make any progress in the position of the Shanxi Dao Censor, and he would not care about anything!"

"Brother Wu has a good eye. Yao Bo is a dilapidated person. How dare he do this if someone else changes him?"

Wu Zuolai played with the wine cup he was working on, laughed without saying a word, and waited until the group of people flattered him, and then said:

"This matter is important, everyone should not slackewer. This year is the year of Beijing Inspection. Everyone, what is the future ahead? It depends on this time!"

The Beijing Procuratorate was a system for the Ming Dynasty to assess officials. Every six years, officials with the fifth rank and below the fifth rank in the world were assessed. On the capital side, the Minister of Personnel and the Left Censor of the Censorate of the Censorate jointly conducted the assessment.

This is the assessment that Ming officials care about the most, because this assessment will determine whether the promotion of officials can even maintain this position. Every time, the gate of the Minister of Personnel is lively like a market, with officials seeking officials and protecting officials, but for many opponents, this is also an opportunity.

Wu Zuolai, a close disciple of Yang Wei, the Minister of Personnel, said this a little different from others. The few people sitting on the table laughed and agreed solemnly.

A day later, Wu Zuolai appeared in the mansion of Yang Wei, the Minister of Personnel. Now even the gatekeeper of the Minister of Personnel's Mansion has raised his head. Those officials are cautious in front of the Secretary of the People's Government, for fear that they will not be able to enter the door if they make a mistake.

As Yang Wei's disciple, Wu Zuolai did not have so much trouble. He greeted the door, and the concierge politely gave in.

Although it was the afternoon after the court was dispersed, Yang Wei was meeting the guests. Wu Zuolai waited in the side hall for a while before Yang Wei's long-time call in.

Yang Wei is now the Minister of Personnel, and the power of the six ministries is much heavier than before. When he saw Wu Zuo coming into the study, he recovered from his contemplation. Wu Zuolai quickly walked a few steps to the front, and whispered after seeing the ceremony:

"Mr. Yao Bo is willing to write this memorial, and everyone else is ready. As long as Yao Bo starts, everyone will immediately be excited..."

Hearing this, Yang Wei nodded, but he also heard the end of Wu Zuo's words. He squinted his eyes and said immediately:

"Mr., the student has a few words that he doesn't know whether he should say or not."

Yang Wei "Well... I said, Wu Zuolai said respectfully:

"Your Majesty has more and more his own ideas. Just people in the court and the country are ready to speak out for justice and let Your Majesty know that the emperor is polite and the rule of the world is a long-term stability. However, Wang Tong from the Jinyiwei is an unreasonable person. At that time, Your Majesty will let Wang Tong."

Yang Wei shook his head and said calmly:

"Although Wang Tong was unreasonable, he was defeated by his loyalty. Last year, those things were also a warning to him. Wang Tong exiled himself to Guihua City, and the soldiers of the Jinyiwei and Tianjinwei were handed over. He was nothing.

Hearing this, Wu Zuolai breathed a sigh of relief, but still said in a solemn voice:

"My teacher, Jinyiwei and various troops from Beijing and Tianjin, Your Majesty has used it once, but he will definitely not use it for the second time..."

Yang Wei pondered there for a while, waved his hand and asked the few people standing in the corner of the house to retreat. After they waited for someone to go out, Yang Wei spoke out:

"This year, you are going to arrange for you to choose a company to do things. You do things properly and think comprehensively, which makes your teacher very pleased. Some things should be told to you."

The Ministry of Personnel's selection is equivalent to the first yamen of the Ministry of Personnel. An assessment staff gave the responsibility for the appointment list of officials to the Minister of Personnel. The most important thing is that it is the first-class Feique. When Wu Zuolai heard this, he immediately showed a look of gratitude and tears, and quickly knelt down and kowtowed and said:

"The teacher is kind to you, and the students should repay you with great kindness!"

Yang Wei nodded, but did not let him get up and said:

"It is a great gift to be orderly in the old age. The court and the people outside the palace know this, and some people in the palace know that the eldest son should be the crown prince. Even the Empress Dowager agrees with this matter. Otherwise, Empress Dowager Cisheng would love His Highness Lu more. Get up and go back to continue working. I will arrange for someone to send the money and land deeds to Yao Bo!"

Wu Zuolai, who was kneeling on the ground, heard Yang Wei's first half of his speech and his body shook. After a while, he was afraid and worried but disappeared, but Shen Qian became a little more determined.

On the 20th day of the first lunar month, Wang Tong was wandering in Guihua City accompanied by General Tan. He was surrounded by personal guards dressed in servants. He drove here for almost a month. Wang Tong spent most of his time in Jiangfang and the farm outside the city. This was the first time he was wandering around the city.
