Chapter 780 Maybe I'm Destined to Detach(2/2)
When the shop was ready, Shi Xiangyun thought for a moment, stepped back and said, "Tell me honestly, is there something big going on outside?"
"Isn't something big happened?"
Tanchun deliberately pretended to be stupid and said: "My second brother has been dismissed from office, and he will never be used again."
"That's not it!"
Shi Xiangyun pursed his lips and said, protecting his stomach: "Do you think I'm stupid? A lot of people come to my door every day these days. I heard that they are all working-study students, and there are even students who are still studying - it was like this last time
, when the emperor just suffered a stroke."
Seeing that he couldn't hide it from her, Tan Chun said: "You also know that this is not the first time. Don't worry, Brother Jiao will definitely be able to settle the matter. Maybe he will take a further step in the officialdom."
Shi Xiangyun shook his head slightly: "I don't expect to be rich or wealthy, I just want to be safe."
Tanchun obviously disagreed, but she also knew that everyone has their own ambitions, so she laughed it off and took the initiative to change the topic.
…………
While the two sisters were chatting happily, several work-study students had already gathered in the living room in the front yard. They did not have the determination to explore sex, and they were all worried and restless.
Although we have experienced similar scenes, even in terms of momentum, the back-to-work movement at the beginning of the year was even better - at that time, leaders from all provinces gathered in the capital, not only took to the streets to petition, but also came to
Zijin Street besieged Jiao Mansion. It would be no exaggeration to say that the situation was extremely dangerous.
But at that time, everyone could still face each other with gongs and drums, and there was support from the emperor and Mr. Jiao. Although it was dangerous, there was no lack of hope.
But nowadays, the flashes of swords and swords are mainly in the articles of major newspapers and periodicals. Everyone is anxious in their hearts when they see it, but they can't use the slightest effort.
What's more, the one who is leading the charge this time is no longer a low-level scholar, but the dignified emperor's uncle, Prince Zhongshun.
And the emperor is now on his deathbed. I heard that he has to be fed mouth-to-mouth every day - this building is about to collapse, and the opponents have doubled in intensity. How can it not make people panic?
Therefore, many people would come to Jiao's house every day to inquire about news. Even if they found information that they had heard countless times, as long as Mr. Jiao was willing to say a few words, they would feel more at ease.
The same is true today, but the atmosphere in the living room must be even more solemn than before, because:
"Have you heard about it? We are attacking the Zhongshun Dynasty to win over those civil servants so that we can become the regent!"
"I heard someone say this this morning, otherwise I wouldn't have come here so early."
"I already guessed it, I just didn't say it!"
"Do you think this is similar to what happened back then?"
"Can't you? That's my uncle and nephew. Prince Zhongshun is the emperor's uncle..."
"It doesn't look like it. Anyway, if he takes power, all of us will be afraid..."
The more everyone talked, the more frustrated they became, and the more they talked, the more panicked they became.
The current situation is quite similar to when Sejong usurped the throne. The difference is that the emperor's nephew has become the emperor's uncle, and the people who are connected with him are no longer the noble group, but the civil servants who control the court.
Emperor Taizu was so wise and powerful at that time, but after his death, he was usurped by his nephew, and he ended up with a personal demise.
Although today's Long Live can be regarded as a wise master, he can't surpass Taizu, right?
Then after he dies...
Moreover, even though Taizu was dead and in power, not too many people were implicated at least. However, King Zhongshun’s tyranny is well known to everyone. Judging from his recent articles in newspapers, once he takes power, he will definitely kill all the work-study students, and even ordinary workers.
Everyone will be implicated.
Just when the atmosphere was turning infinitely pessimistic, a piece of news suddenly came in: According to a servant of the Jiao family, his master was summoned to the palace by the Queen in the afternoon.
After receiving this news, everyone was cheered up and had some hope again.
The reason why Sejong succeeded in usurping the throne was mainly because the emperor's most trusted right-hand man chose to stand aside for the sake of the family's interests.
But Mr. Jiao is not one of those ungrateful people!
Besides, his future and life are all tied up in the New Deal and engineering, and it is impossible for him to betray the emperor for profit.
As long as the Queen is willing to trust and rely on Lord Jiao, maybe the tragedy of that year will not happen again.
