Looking at Dang Han with a depressed look on his face, Luo Sigong smiled and shook his head. He picked up the wine bottle and poured himself a glass first, and then poured another glass for Dang Han. After thinking about it quietly, he said in a deep voice: "You follow

I have been here for so many years, I should understand who I am as a person, and if I am not completely sure, I will not be so leisurely."

"Your Excellency is right. It was disrespectful of one's position. I hope you won't blame me!" Dang Han held the wine glass in both hands and looked at Luo Sigong. Dang Han said in a respectful tone.

Shaking his head gently, Luo Sigong patted Dang Han on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Although you and I are superiors and subordinates in name, in fact we both know in our hearts that I have never regarded you as my subordinate."

Here, let’s drink together and chat as friends!”

Listening to Luo Sigong's sincere words, Dang Han suddenly showed a look of emotion on his face, nodded, and said: "Back then, your Excellency was only a thousand households, and I was still an independent person traveling around the world. I did several big things in your territory.

The case has never been missed, but I didn't expect that it would fall into the hands of the adults."

"Yes! I almost lost my official position because of you, and it took a lot of effort to catch you. Later I found out that the few cases you did were all for the sake of flooding the Yangtze River. I was filled with emotion at that time. Every single person in the world has it.

To love someone so generously is to shame those who live in temples." Luo Sigong drank the wine in the glass in one gulp, his face turned slightly red, he shook his head and said with emotion.

Picking up the wine glass and pouring a glass of wine for Luo Sigong, Dang Han said with gratitude: "My lord knew that I was a criminal, and if I were brought to justice, I would be able to get promoted and make a fortune, but my lord did not. Not only did he not arrest me, he also

He gave me all the money I got, and I still admire his broadmindedness and courage."

"You still say? Because of this incident, I went from a thousand households to a hundred households. My family gave me a scolding. But you spent all the money on the refugees, so I got what I wanted! As for

I was promoted to an official position later!" Luo Sigong's face was filled with a smile, a youthful smile, a heroic smile.

Smiling and pouring a glass of wine for Luo Sigong, Dang Han recalled: "Since then, I have been following you, going through many ups and downs, and watching you step by step to reach where you are today. Thinking about it, everything seems like

Yesterday, life lasted only a few decades, and the years were really wearing thin!"

Pointing at Dang Han, Luo Sigong laughed and said, "Have you been with the old ghost for a long time? Why do you always imitate him?"

"You are kidding me. The old ghost is now back in the countryside, growing vegetables and raising chickens. What a wonderful life! It's just his two daughters. You should find someone to marry as soon as possible! They follow us all day long.

Running west is not the way to go!" Dang Han said with a hint of worry as a flash of worry appeared on his face.

"After this matter is done, I will go find someone for him and them. I will definitely not treat them badly!" Luo Sigong smiled and nodded, patting Dang Han on the shoulder.

The two people suddenly fell into silence, and the air was a little solemn. For a long time, Luo Sigong said with a serious face: "The emperor has been kind to me. This matter must be completed no matter what, even if I leave my life here. If not,

Success, I, Luo Sigong, have no shame in going back to see the emperor, do you understand what I mean?"

"Don't worry, sir, I understand! Wrapped in horse leather, that is the destination of a general. For a general, it is a shame to die on the bed. My Lord has gone through ups and downs in his life, and he will surely succeed this time and be brought to the invincible hand in the world.

You can now die in bed with peace of mind!" Dang Han looked at Luo Sigong with a smile and made a joke that he hadn't said in a long time.

"Having said that, we must be careful about this matter. Now that there are so many people in the city suddenly, I feel confident. Send people to watch these people. They should gather tomorrow and the day after tomorrow.

, they can't wait too long. By then we will be able to find the rebels of the White Lotus Sect and the whereabouts of the Jurchens. This time I will catch them all, otherwise it will be difficult to avenge my shame and the hatred in my heart!

Luo Sigong said with determination in his eyes and a somewhat cold expression.

Dang Han, who was on the side, suddenly understood. He nodded solemnly and said, "Don't worry, sir. I will definitely assist you in my humble position to fulfill your wish."

Looking up at the sky, Luo Sigong said with a smile: "It's getting late, let's go and rest! We'll be busy tomorrow, we can't miss it!" After saying that, he stood up and staggered towards his house.

Looking at Luo Sigong's back, Dang Han gave a respectful salute and said in a voice he could hear: "I respectfully send you off, my lord!"

The rooster has just crowed and dawn has just broken, and the officials of the Ming Dynasty have begun to go to work. Today is the morning of the morning, everyone gets up very early, and no one dares to be late for the morning.

Sitting in the main hall, Emperor Tianqi glanced at everyone's faces and said in a deep voice: "My dear friends, please be free of courtesy!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" After everyone thanked them, they all bowed and stood aside.

Wang Chengen, who was standing in front of Emperor Tianqi, shook the whisk in his hand and said loudly: "If there is any problem, I will beat him early, if there is no problem, I will retreat from the court!"

"Your Majesty, I have my heart set on this!" As soon as Wang Chengen finished speaking, a man stood up in the hall and said in a respectful tone.

Looking down, Emperor Tianqi found that the person standing up was Zhou Cang, the censor of the city patrol. He nodded and said: "It turns out to be Zhou Aiqing. The ground in the capital is still peaceful. Is there anything going on?"

"Back to your Majesty, Your Majesty's blessings are everywhere, the people live and work in peace and contentment, and there is nothing major happening on the ground in the capital. However, when I was patrolling the city yesterday, I occasionally heard some street rumors, but they were a bit inappropriate." Zhou Cang looked embarrassed.

, I wanted to speak several times but stopped.

Looking at Zhou Cang's appearance, Emperor Tianqi's face did not show any fluctuation. This set of methods was not new at all. It was clear that retreat was the basis for advancement. Zhou Cang must have said it, and it would have been better if Emperor Tianqi didn't let him.

It's not appropriate, I just hope that the emperor will open his mouth and let him speak.

Not only did this not offend anyone, but it also shifted the responsibility to the emperor. Looking Zhou Cang up and down, Emperor Tianqi smiled, but a fierce look flashed in his eyes. Such a person is disgusting, and such behavior is also disgusting.

.

After waving his hand, Emperor Tianqi said softly: "The Ming Dynasty has never blocked the way of speech. Since I came to the throne, I have been close to the people and diligent in government. I sigh day and night and dare not mention it. Of course, I want to understand the sufferings of the people. I love you.

No matter what the pain is, I will definitely investigate it thoroughly!"

Now it was the turn of the ministers to look at each other. Emperor Tianqi did not follow the routine this time, and had limited Zhou Cang's memorial to the sufferings of the people. If Zhou Cang's memorial was not the sufferings of the people, he would be derelict in his duty. Some people couldn't help but lament that Emperor Tianqi

This cloud hand is beautifully played.

Zhou Cang below had a look of cold sweat on his face. Although Emperor Tianqi spoke softly, Zhou Cang knew very well in his heart that Emperor Tianqi was dissatisfied with him. However, he had no choice but to take action at this point.

"Your Majesty, your Majesty is close to the people and diligent in their work. Officials are honest and dedicated to their duties. People live a prosperous life and no longer suffer much. If I want to report on the sufferings of the people, it is difficult to find. What I want to report today is the rumors about officials among the people!" Zhou Cang

He took a step forward, his face suddenly became serious, and he said fearlessly.

Emperor Tianqi nodded, he was about to quarrel, and a censor patrolling the city came up to quarrel. It seems that this time it is not just against Sun Chengzong. These people want to use Sun Chengzong to take back the rights they have obtained.

His expression remained unchanged and he said: "In that case, then please tell me, my dear!"

Listening to Emperor Tianqi's cold tone, Zhou Cang could only smile bitterly in his heart. No matter what happened, he would probably become cannon fodder. But the arrow was on the string and he had to shoot!

After bowing to Emperor Tianqi, Zhou Cang said loudly: "Your Majesty, I have heard rumors that Master Sun Chengzong, the chief assistant scholar of the cabinet, has eliminated dissidents in Liaodong, installed cronies, embezzled huge amounts of military pay from the imperial court, and is threatening to separatize the north.

A disloyal heart."

Sure enough, it was this matter. Emperor Tianqi knew that the matter was not that simple, and said with a hint of doubt: "There is still such a thing? But there are some rumors in the market, I'm afraid they are not serious? Sun Chengzong is my teacher and the head of the cabinet.

A scholar from the Fu University, his character and talents are praised by the world. This should be caused by unwarranted rumors and trouble! Where is Shuntian Mansion?"

Hearing Emperor Tianqi calling him, Yin Shuntian immediately felt as if he was in mourning. He was in such unreasonable disaster. He did not dare to delay at all, walked out of the queue, saluted Emperor Tianqi, and said in a respectful tone: "Your Majesty, Yin Shuntian, Li Zhicheng

exist!"

"This matter is our responsibility to Shuntian Prefecture. We must find the person who spreads the rumors. This person must have ulterior motives. You must work hard!" Emperor Tianqi looked at Shuntian Prefecture Yin and said with a serious face.

The ministers below looked at each other in confusion. Emperor Tianqi made it clear that he did not want to talk about this matter anymore, and the matter ended here.

"Your Majesty, I have this memorial!" At this moment, someone else spoke.

At this time, the look on Emperor Tianqi's face became a little ugly. He lowered his head and saw that it was a censor. Looking carefully, Emperor Tianqi knew this person. He was responsible for supervising the censor Wang Daozhou in Shaanxi.

Nodding, Emperor Tianqi said in a deep voice: "It turns out to be Wang Aiqing. I wonder what happened to Wang Aiqing?"

"Your Majesty, I have also heard about the rumors that Mr. Zhou just said. Those who spread the rumors naturally have ulterior motives, but they are groundless and may not be silent. Mr. Sun is of upright character, but he is in a high position, and his status in Liaodong is very important.

It's important, you can't be rude about this." Wang Daozhou's face was very serious, and his words were loud and clear, and there was no hint of any intention to participate in Sun Chengzong's performance.
