Aoyama Chronicle

Chapter 101 Crisis

Knowing a lot of inside information, even his own life experience has twists and turns, but these did not affect Zhong Yiwen's life, neither became impetuous nor panic.As long as his family and friends are around him well, Zhong Yiwen feels that everything is fine.

Just because they're fine doesn't mean others are as comfortable as they are.

The first unlucky person was Li Zhang.Zhong Yiwen deeply thought that this person did it himself.It turned out that that day Meng Anwen showed his counterfeit calligraphy and paintings in Dali Temple and other ways to distinguish the authenticity, which soon spread in the capital.Li Zhang is also a fan of celebrity calligraphy and painting, and has a lot of collections, so he appraised all the cheap ones at home.As a result, he almost cried to death, none of the dozens of calligraphy and paintings were real, and all of them were produced by the Meng family.Having copied so many famous calligraphy and paintings, it is no wonder that Meng Anwen has such an attitude when he meets people.

Li Zhang also had no intention of meeting Zhong Yiwen in the Imperial Academy and said that he didn't care about the occasion, so now the entire Imperial Academy knows that the treasures in Li Zhang's hands are all fake, which is even more miserable.

The second unlucky person was naturally Meng Anwen.Although he testified in court and announced the identification method of his forged calligraphy and painting, Li Wen did not directly sentence him, but ordered him to stay in Kyoto temporarily, waiting to be summoned at any time.This is great, now he can’t even find a place to live in Kyoto, he can’t even remember the number of calligraphy and paintings that he forged, there are too many victims, and there are more people who ask him to settle accounts, but they are all Can't get out.If Cao Mingdong hadn't taken him in, we don't know if this man would survive until the day he left the capital.

The third unlucky one was Bai Qi.Although he tried his best to defend himself, saying that he did not kill Bai Cen, but with Bai Ji's testimony, Yu Shi bit him back later, and the charges of producing various false evidence, the trial a few days later, he was sentenced to death. Dali Temple directly sentenced him to death with a one-month reprieve.

There are even more unlucky people left, Yu Shi, An Le Wang, Yu Taishi, Yu Queen, and even many people from Yu Taishi's faction were involved.Who would have thought that the death of an academy dean would involve such people and events.Moreover, the person who gave false testimony in blood was also found out. The mastermind was Yu Taishi, and the one who did it was Yu Taishi's student who is now the prefect of Xuzhou.It turned out that Taishi Yu knew about An Cen's murder, and knew that Yu Shi and the others wanted to blame others, but wanted to clear Yu Shi and the others completely. There was not enough evidence to accuse Cao Fengzhong, so he specially asked the prefect of Xuzhou to help make a fake blood coat .Anyway, the Yu family is over now, and the ending will depend on the mood of the Holy Majesty.

It's just that there is no definite news about the illegitimate son of King Anle, but Yu Shi seems to have admitted it, and is waiting for the Holy Majesty and the others to verify the authenticity.The fourth prince Yan Tianzhi was in charge of investigating this matter, and everyone else in Beijing seemed to be waiting to see the final result, although most of them had acquiesced to this fact.

On this day, as soon as Zhong Yiwen arrived at the Imperial Academy, Shen Ying strolled over and sat directly in front of Zhong Yiwen very bluntly.

"Hey, the atmosphere in Kyoto is really not good these days!" Shen Ying sighed while holding the teacup, his words were vague.

Zhong Yiwen looked at him amusedly: "Master Shen is dissatisfied with the atmosphere in the capital, why don't you apply to the emperor to go to the Nanban area... As long as Mr. Shen volunteers, I think the emperor will not worry about this candidate anymore!"

"Hey! You must not have paid attention to this matter. Now this matter is not as avoided as it was at the beginning. Nowadays, many people are scrambling to go. I am an old bone. That was hilarious!"

Zhong Yiwen was a little curious: "What's going on?"

Shen Ying lowered his voice mysteriously: "Yu family!"

After thinking about it, oh, Zhong Yiwen nodded to express his understanding.The Yu family faction is in danger now, and many people are probably rushing to the Nanman area in order to avoid the coming storm.Whether you can earn credit is a small matter, but avoiding the limelight is the real thing.It is said that the hozens are scattered when the tree falls, but the hozens have already dispersed a lot before Yu's family falls.

"Then what does the emperor mean?" Zhong Yiwen asked.

"It is estimated that one of the six ministers will be sent there! If the official position is too low, it will not be convincing, and if the official position is too high, it will seem to take them too seriously. The six ministers are about the same." Shen Ying analyzed, "However, Mr. Hong is standing in the six ministers. Those from the Yu family, and they are not courageous enough, so I am afraid there is no hope. The remaining few people are actually Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry and Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites. In the past, no one would feel at ease. Originally, you were a good candidate, but unfortunately the official position is too low, and the emperor probably would not be willing to let you take risks!"

"Master Shen, don't frame me." However, Zhong Yiwen suddenly had an idea.Anyway, the holy majesty's conquest of the Nanman area is already the way to go.Now that he and Zhang Zhaofeng are in a cooperative relationship, it is better to discuss with Zhang Zhaofeng and let Zhang Zhaofeng turn over first, so that the Zhang family can have a proper identity.

This is almost a matter of earning credit steadily, and it can't be taken advantage of by Master Yu's group. Zhong Yiwen's first reaction was to let Master Jiang Mojiang, Minister of Rites, go.There is absolutely no doubt about Jiang Mo's tact and ability, even if other people can't convince him, Zhang Zhaofeng is a great credit.Although the relationship between Zhong Yiwen and Jiang Mo was not too close, Jiang Mo had helped Chen Yinuo many times overtly and secretly, and Min Yiwen still remembered this love.

"Master Shen, after hearing what you said, I think Master Jiang Mo is very suitable!"

Shen Ying suddenly became interested: "How to say?"

Zhong Yiwen still doesn't know that he is a fool for being fooled.This Shen Ying is basically here to set his words, don't think about the instigator behind it, it must be the current sage.

Zhong Yiwen glanced at Shen Ying with a half-smile, the meaning couldn't be clearer, we are so familiar, yet we still come up with such a trick, but now the important thing is: "First of all, Mr. Jiang is the Minister of Rites. We sent people to the Nanman area to In what name, you can't say recruiting or subduing them, but you can use a more peaceful name such as visiting and exchanging, so who can be more suitable than Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites; secondly, Master Jiang's ability, he has been in the Ministry of Rites for so many years, Familiar with the etiquette of all parties, there are many ethnic groups in the Nanman area, and the folk customs of each ethnic group are different. Sending him there will at least not be dark-eyed like others, and he will not accidentally violate other taboos; in the end, it must be because of Jiang My lord's eloquence is good, and he often receives people from other countries. Not to mention his rich experience, his ability to deal with emergencies is not bad. It is definitely the most suitable for him to go. In addition, I think it is more appropriate to enter the Nanman area from the south of Yangzhou , there are fewer people there, and the leader is also new, so the possibility of being able to appease must be higher than in other places."

Shen Ying nodded again and again, basically agreeing with Zhong Yiwen's words.Although he was looking at other people at first, after Zhong Yiwen's analysis, he also felt that Jiang Mo was the most suitable person.It's still Zhong Yiwen's foresight, they are really old!

Sure enough, after the communication between Shen Ying and Zhong Yiwen, the next morning, no one cared about him. Recently, the special envoy sent to the Nanman area suddenly became a favorite, and finally fell into the hands of Jiang Mo, Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites.

As a special envoy, he was directly granted the first rank by the emperor.Compared with the other high-ranking ministers in the DPRK, Jiang Mo is really too young, and his qualifications are far worse.When many people heard this decree, their eyes turned red, jealous of Jiang Mo's shit luck!

In fact, Jiang Mo himself was no less confused than the others, although he had been a little moved since the beginning when the Holy Majesty announced that he would send people to the Nanman area.He is now the Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites, which can be regarded as a high position, but no one wants to go further, not to mention that the Ministry of Rites is not the most important among the six departments.But he also knows the danger of this trip, and his lack of qualifications, even if he volunteers, he probably won't be selected by the Holy One.It's just that he didn't expect that this would turn around in the end. The Holy One directly chose him as a special envoy, and even promoted him.Now as long as he can come back from the Nanman area, he will definitely be a high-ranking member, and he will be the youngest member of the Yan Kingdom in history.It is hard to say that there will be no one in the future, but it is definitely unprecedented.

When Zhong Yiwen learned that Jiang Mo was indeed assigned to go to the Nanman area, he took the initiative to find Zhang Zhaofeng to discuss the future arrangements.Although the final result must be to recruit and surrender without a doubt, the attitude should neither be too low nor too high. The benefits must also be negotiated in advance.

Originally, Zhang Zhaofeng was not far from accepting Zhong Yiwen's proposal, and had no intention of accepting the recruitment at all.

Zhong Yiwen scolded directly: "Pig brain!"

Zhang Zhaofeng glanced sideways at Zhong Yiwen, the expression on his face was definitely full of danger.

"Don't be in a hurry to refute, listen to me first!" Zhong Yiwen believed that he and Zhang Zhaofeng's force values ​​were not at the same level, so let's just say that his mouth was damaged, and he would never use his hands if he could move his mouth. "Although your life has improved a lot in the past few years, But it is undeniable that there are still Japanese pirates, and the life of the people must not be compared with that of the people of Yan, right?"

Zhang Zhaofeng nodded slightly, acquiescing to Zhong Yiwen's words.

"It's an opportunity for the emperor to take the initiative to recruit security. Anyway, you must have no plans to establish a country! Then we can try our best to strive for the greatest benefits from the three aspects of military, politics, and economy."

Zhang Zhaofeng was already a little interested, but he still didn't intend to accept it.

Zhong Yiwen didn't mind either, and continued to explain to him: "Military, it's very simple, you should fight against the Japanese invaders and ask for soldiers, try to ask for soldiers from the Yan Kingdom and not generals, the military power is directly controlled in your hands; politics, retaining your autonomy, is acceptable. Joint governance, but you must not hand over all the power to the Yan State. It is best to formulate laws that suit your local conditions; the economy is even more important. Both parties are allowed to trade, but some policies to protect local merchants are allowed. If , if you don’t really want to establish a country, these few items are absolutely beneficial to you.”

Although Zhang Zhaofeng still didn't say a word, Zhong Yiwen knew that his heart must have been moved.He is really serving the country and the people, one country, two systems, all of which were plagiarized by him!
