    Seeing several people's eyes looking at him, the old man felt slightly reassured, and those worries seemed to no longer exist.  Sighing softly, the old man said in a deep voice: "Ye Xianggao's matter cannot be brought out again. Whether he was killed by others or died of illness, it was the most appropriate time for him to die at that time. The one who killed Ye Xianggao  People don't want to fight to the death with us, but they just want to tell us through Ye Xianggao's death that he already knows that we are behind it." Several people looked at each other, and one of them said hesitantly: "Sir, if so.  In that case, why not use Ye Xianggao's death? As long as we investigate his death, we can find the murderer and find out the person behind it!" The old man shook his head slowly and said with a smile.  Check Ye Zhigao? How can we check it! It is against the rules for a senior scholar to interfere in government affairs. If the matter in Liaodong is found, then we will all be implicated. So I said, he died.  At that time, those people didn't want to break up with us. Killing Ye Xianggao in this way is a balance." The man sitting under the old man sighed softly and said in a deep voice: "Teacher, it's just like this.  Isn¡¯t the Liaodong line broken? Isn¡¯t this a big loss?¡± Shaking his head gently, the old man sighed deeply and said in a deep voice: ¡°It is indeed a pity that the Liaodong line is broken now.  It's not a bad thing. This time Xiong Tingbi's matter has not been resolved, and the imperial court has achieved an unprecedented victory in Liaodong. Without external pressure, many internal matters should be taken to the top. "  He nodded in understanding. Seeing their confused looks, the old man smiled bitterly and shook his head, and then continued: "It has been half a year since the emperor ascended the throne, right? He is just a sixteen-year-old boy emperor, but who of you knows?  This emperor¡¯s temper? His preferences? His personality?¡± Several people present shook their heads blankly and looked at the old man again.  Shaking his head gently, the old man sighed, and then said in a deep voice: "That's why I'm worried! You see, since the emperor ascended the throne, it seems that he has done nothing, but let's take a look at the current court and what it was back then.  What's the difference? Let's start with the cabinet. Although Fang Congzhe was the chief minister, we had two bachelors in the cabinet, one was Gu Zhen and the other was Han Kuang, although they were not from us.  , but they are similar to ours. As for the six ministers, we have Li Ruhua, the minister of the Ministry of Affairs, Wang Linguang, the minister of the Ministry of Industry, Yao Zongwen, the minister of the Ministry of War, and Sun Ruyou, the minister of the Ministry of Rites.  Shangshu Wu Liangsi." After looking at everyone, the old man continued: "Look now, Ye Xianggao wants to bring down Fang Congzhe, but Fang Congzhe is gone, but then there is the case of Xiong Tingbi, and we can't do anything.  I didn't get it, but I lost a Gu Zhen. It can be said that I lost my wife and lost my army. Besides, Li Ruhua, the Minister of Civil Affairs, resigned early in the morning. His successor was nominally our man Zhou Jiamo, but in fact you all know that Zhou Jiamo.  We are not on the same line, and we can't get along. Then because of Ye Xianggao, Wang Linguang also resigned, and he was replaced by Yuan Yingtai, the original governor of Liaodong. We all know this person. He has no party affiliation. Now let's take a look.  " The old man took a sip of wine, and then said in a deep voice, "We have two cabinet bachelors, two six ministers, and then there is Sun Chengzong, a cabinet chief assistant bachelor, a Zuodu censor from the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and finally we  On the other side of the old rivals, there are two six ministers. This is much simpler. It seems that we still occupy a dominant position in the court, but once these two parties join forces, then we will definitely not be opponents in the short term.  In just half a year, we have gone from a position of absolute advantage to what we are now." After hearing the old man's words, the people around him suddenly took a breath of air!  It seems that nothing has changed, but before you know it, the whole court has become a three-legged trend!  It sounds like there is no difference between a tripartite confrontation and two factions fighting, but the real situation is very different.  If there is a fight between two factions, then as long as the other party is defeated, then one can dominate the court. Of course, the wise emperor will not allow anyone to do this.  "Just balancing the relationship between the two factions is a very profound knowledge. If you are caught in the struggle between the two factions, it will be difficult for even the emperor to have the energy to take care of other things.  However, it is different when three parties coexist. As long as two of the parties are particularly fierce in their fight, one party will definitely take advantage.  Your two parties are fighting extremely fiercely. The third party will definitely not ignore it and directly provide help when it is timely. Then they will merge into one.  Seeing that everyone's expressions became serious, the old man said slowly: "Now we are like Cao Wei during the Three Kingdoms. Although we are the most powerful, we are no match for the two parties joining forces. Those two parties are like Liu Bei.  ??Sun Quan, although there are conflicts, will definitely be very consistent when dealing with us.  "Sighing deeply, the old man said helplessly: "In just half a year, the court has become like this, although the local power Sun Chengzong's side is still a little weaker.  But next year is the ceremonial ceremony. As long as you preside over a major exam, all your disciples and old officials will come.  Someone drank the wine in the glass in one gulp and said angrily: "How could this happen? Why did this happen?" The old man smiled calmly, and then said: "Actually, I didn't understand it at first, but what happened in Liaodong this time  Only after I came out did I see something. There seemed to be someone behind everything. He never showed up and never stood up directly. He always took advantage of others and took advantage of the situation, so we always ignored him.  " Everyone held their breath and looked at the old man anxiously. Only one person's face was gloomy and terrifying, and the hand holding the wine glass was constantly shaking.  After drinking up the half-spilled wine, the man pointed upward and said with some disbelief: "You're not talking about him, are you?" The old man nodded slowly, shook his head with a wry smile,  Then he said dejectedly: "We didn't pay attention to him. We all thought that a young man who had never read a book knew nothing. But this young man ruined all our hard work for so many years in just half a year."  The man smiled bitterly and shook his head, and said sadly: "If it is really him, then this matter will be in trouble." The old man took a sip of wine and said slowly: "If it is really him, then this matter will be in trouble."  The great victory in Liaodong brought more than just a great victory. Now that the external pressure was gone, it was time to deal with the internal situation. Being able to use Sun Chengzong to win such a big victory could lead to the collapse of the imperial court in half a year.  The appearance in the hall has changed. What else can we do?" Seeing the old man's dejection, the people below looked at each other, and someone asked tentatively: "Could we have made a mistake? The emperor has only been on the throne for half a year, and this year is only 16 years old.  How can you have such a mind?" The old man slowly shook his head and said with a wry smile: "I also hope that my thoughts are wrong, but after many times of scrutiny, I know that they are correct. These are all from the emperor.  "Everyone looked at each other, and then looked at the old man nervously. One person asked in a deep voice: "Then what will the emperor do next?" The old man pondered for a moment and said with some hesitation: "Your Majesty.  There was no action before, firstly because we had just ascended the throne, and secondly because foreign enemies were eyeing us. After this incident, the Jiannu in Liaodong no longer had the strength to attack us within a few years.  The emperor's prestige is also unparalleled, so there is no such thing as lack of qualifications. " "Then we can use the old method! If it doesn't work, we will report it and write to the palace." A strange light flashed in one person's eyes.  , said decisively.  "The current emperor grew up in a very complicated environment. He has lived a precarious life since he was a child. He wandered between the two women Zheng Guifei and Li Xuanshi. Not only did he successfully survive, but he also pleased Lord Wanli. Before he was canonized as the crown prince,  When he was born, he had already been appointed as the grandson of the emperor. We all looked down upon him in the past, but this emperor was not an ordinary person. I recently got news that on the night when the emperor ascended the throne, thousands of people were killed in the Forbidden City.  The palace maid and eunuch were not merciless at all." The old man's face was very ugly, and he continued with a deep look: "Don't forget, what did Emperor Hongwu do back then?  It¡¯s not necessarily because you don¡¯t have that idea, but because you don¡¯t have the ability.¡± The person who was the first to guess the identity of Emperor Tianqi just now also smiled bitterly and shook his head, saying in a deep voice: ¡°Now the emperor has this prestige.  , and with this idea, he will definitely do it next. The first thing I am afraid is to clean the court." The old man nodded in agreement, and then said with a stern face: "Yes, this is probably what the emperor will do next.  But that's not what I'm worried about. If the emperor comes to force us, we have our own ways. But the man on the other side said: "It's just that the emperor won't do this. He can pass it through a few times when we don't pay attention."  Personal promotion has changed the situation in the court. Such an emperor will never do it openly, as that will make him lose the hearts of the people and the hearts of the world's scholars. "The old man said with a bitter smile: "It will happen.  Here, the emperor will not force himself, he must take advantage of the situation. If this is the case, we will really be in trouble. " "Are we just waiting to die? We have to find a way!" One person stood up suddenly, a little bit.  Said urgently.  (To be continued.
