The eldest son of the red mansion

However, facing the advice of others, Jia Ke still wanted to put on a show, so he pretended to be sad and indignant, and replied to Lao Mengming: "The current emperor is too impatient. If you are not talented, for the sake of the people of the world, you can only support it with all your strength."

After Jia Ke finished speaking, she turned around and walked out of the hall in a desolate manner, as if a loyal minister was not understood, helpless and sad.

Old Meng Ming has been working with Jia Ke during this time. Although he is a little dissatisfied with his domineering, Jia Ke can indeed be fair and honest in handling official affairs. The case of helping the gentry to hide their taxes was severely cracked down.

These circumstances have greatly reduced the burden on ordinary people and greatly increased the income of the imperial court.It was only in the end that he hurt the interests of those big gentry, which made the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty stay away from him, and used the right to speak in their hands to attack him continuously, and let those ignorant youths who didn't know the truth come out to take the lead.

Today's incident is over, but its aftermath has not stopped.Everything from today's ups and downs is full of propaganda that has been embellished by others.

Scholars all over the world say that Jia Ke is a treacherous official who harmed the country and the people, and everyone wants to get rid of him quickly. As for the three censors who were imprisoned in the Ministry of Punishment, they have now become heroes among scholars.

But Sun Yan, Shangshu of the Ministry of Justice, is now in huge trouble.

Although he was not relaxed, this time Jia Ke issued an order to him in the name of the head minister of the Military Aircraft Department.The three Lengtouqing censors were all imprisoned in the prison of his criminal department. According to Jia Ke's intention, they were sent to Caishikou to be executed immediately.

But if he kills these three censors, his reputation among scholars will be rotten.If he didn't kill him, and Jia Ke asked him about his crime, he would not be able to escape the reputation of disrespecting his superior.At that time, I'm afraid it will be up to Jia Ke to deal with him.

However, Sun Yan secretly entered the palace to meet the emperor several times, but he didn't know that the emperor hesitated and hesitated about this matter, and was willing to draw a definite conclusion.Neither release nor disposition, just let him figure it out.

This time, the Shangshu of the Ministry of War was blocked in the corner, he was completely complete, and there was no other way.Finally, I gritted my teeth and stomped my feet. Since the emperor didn't have a clear answer, I could only follow orders.So the document was issued immediately, and the three censors were not interrogated, but only said that they were interrogated at Caishikou after March.

This is Sun Yan, Shangshu of the Ministry of War, who played a small game. Although he said that he had already issued an order to kill, the time was delayed for three months, but there was some room for turning around to save these three people.This is also an impossible solution.

Besides, Jia Ke didn't go to the Military Aircraft Office after the next court, nor did he go back to the Marquis of Wuyang's Mansion, but went straight to the Yamen of the Infantry Commander.

Jia Ke rushed all the way to the infantry commander's yamen, and after entering the gate, he directly ordered someone to invite Fan Kang.

At this time, Fan Kang was handling official duties in the government office these days.Suddenly someone came to report that Jia Ke had arrived in the inner study of the yamen and invited him to discuss matters.

When Fan Kang heard the news, he had a bad feeling in his heart.Jia Ke only arrived at the Yamen of the Commanding Infantry in the afternoon, and during this period of time he was busy with official duties, so he would come here for a while every day before busying himself with other things. He went to see him, maybe there is something that needs his advice.

Fan Kang didn't delay either, put down the pen in his hand, locked all the official documents, and tidied up his clothes, and then walked to the study at a leisurely pace.

As soon as Fan Kang entered the study room, he found that Jia Ke was not as anxious as he thought. He was reading an idle book, with a cup of tea and some snacks beside him.The leisurely ones make people a little jealous.

When Fan Kang entered the door, he first bowed to Jia Ke, "Fan Kang has met the lord, but I don't know why the lord wants to recruit Kang."

Jia Ke also saw Fan Kang coming, put down the book quickly, and took a few steps forward to help him up.Then the two were divided into guests and hosts.

At this time, Jia Ke said: "Sir, I'm afraid you don't know. At the court meeting this morning, a few young censors, I don't know whether it was because of personal reasons or they were instigated by others. They actually impeached me at the court meeting as a treacherous minister who caused harm to the country."

Fan Kang didn't show any surprise when he heard this: "My lord, if you say this, you don't have to take it to heart. From ancient times to the present, which chief assistant has not been impeached and attacked? As long as the king trusts the lord, even small things are not important." It doesn't count."

Jia Ke looked at Fan Kang and laughed, "I'm afraid the king won't trust me this time either."

Fan Kang immediately showed a puzzled expression. Although the emperor has a lot of prejudice against Jia Ke, the Supreme Emperor has always trusted Jia Ke. What should I say?But now it is said that the king doesn't trust him anymore.

Jia Ke saw Fan Kang's doubts, and told Fan Kang from beginning to end how the current emperor showed weakness to the enemy in the court hall, and staged a good show of powerful officials persecuting the emperor with the civil servants of the Manchu court in the main hall. .

After Fan Kang heard this, his face turned ashen. He didn't expect that the current emperor would be so powerful. He would seize an unexpected incident and immediately play a big game of chess for Jia Ke.

This is to separate Jia Ke from the Supreme Emperor. Once Jia Ke loses the trust of the Supreme Emperor, he will be attacked by all civil and military forces in the world. I am afraid that things will not be good.

Fan Kang has known Jia Ke's ambitions for a long time, and he also knows that he has been deploying in secret, but after all, the time is too short. I am afraid that these deployments are not enough to overturn the entire court. If the name of court orthodoxy is added, Jia Ke's environment will be even worse bad.

At this time, Fan Kang felt that there was no need to cover up any more, so he asked Jia Ke directly: "I know that my lord has great ambitions, and I have been secretly arranging for this world. I don't know how my lord is preparing now, whether I can face it." Soldiers of kings everywhere."

Jia Ke felt that Fan Kang had been with her all these years and was considered loyal to him, so he should reveal something to him, otherwise how could he analyze it for him without information.

"Once I do something big, there will be no soldiers of the King Qin in the world. At most, there will be civil servants in various prefectures and counties making troubles, but no army will participate in it." Jia Ke said confidently and mysteriously.

Fan Kang was overjoyed when he heard Jia Ke's words. He always thought that Jia Ke only controlled the troops around the capital, but he didn't expect Jia Ke to spread his power all over the world.Although he didn't know how Jia Ke did it, he believed that Jia Ke would never lie to him.

Fan Kang thought about it in his mind, then stood up and knelt down in front of Jia Ke, "My lord, in this way, the time has come. Please don't hesitate anymore, my lord. Now the emperor is fatuous and the Supreme Emperor is seriously ill. For the sake of the world, please lord." Immediately take over the power of the world."

Jia Ke hurriedly stepped forward to help Fan Kang up, let him sit down again, and said to him: "I still say that, when the Supreme Emperor is around, I am a loyal minister of the court. Only when the Supreme Emperor dies, can I act on my own. .This is also worthy of the Supreme Emperor's promotion of me."

After Fan Kang listened to the lecture, he was a little anxious and immediately persuaded: "My lord, those who have always done great things should not have the benevolence of women. Today, the world is already under the control of the lord. Although the civil servants have not returned their hearts, the lord only needs to be in charge of the center. People will immediately move closer to the lord. It is the right time to catch them off guard by doing things now."

Jia Ke stood up and walked around the study a few times, fighting fiercely in her heart.It would be a lie to say that he doesn't want to act now.But when he thought about how much kindness the Supreme Emperor had given him, if he acted now before the Supreme Emperor threatened him, he might not be able to leave a good reputation in the history books in the future.

Jia Ke now feels that he has a sure chance of winning, and there is no need to rush for a while.It's better to wait and see what happens, let the Supreme Emperor and the emperor attack him first, and then resist by himself. Although he still has the reputation of being a courtier, it is much better.If after he came to power, he whitewashed it again under his orders, it would be an example of King Wu defeating Zhou.

After Jia Ke thought about it for a while, she turned around and said to Fan Kang: "The army is in my hands today. As long as I deal with it carefully, no one in the world can touch me. If the Supreme Emperor falls for the emperor's tricks, he will be suspicious at most." Me. As long as the Supreme Emperor doesn’t kill me, I can’t rebel. Otherwise, what will the public opinion of the world say about me in future history books?”

Jia Ke paused and then said: "I don't think the Supreme Emperor is a fool. After this incident, I may have seen some clues. The Supreme Emperor is no longer able to control the overall situation. In the future, I am afraid that he will only be gentle with me and let me let go of my guard. Then attack suddenly to get rid of my scourge. As long as I deal with it carefully, nothing will happen to me. I will do it after they make a move. At that time, the name will be justified, and the world will be unstoppable."

Fan Kang saw that Jia Ke had made up his mind, and the current situation was already under Jia Ke's control.As long as it is Jia Ke, be careful not to be tricked by others.It won't be a big deal if it drags on for another year or two.

Fan Kang felt relaxed now, and he knew Jia Ke's intentions when he rolled his eyes, "My lord, are you going to play a show in front of the world? I'm afraid my lord will not get the desired result. Now the civil servants rely on On the side of the emperor, thinking about the future when the emperor takes power, they are so prosperous, how can they be attached to you, my lord."

"Now they won't be attached to me. In the future, these people will scramble to return to my command and stand up for me. At that time, there must be some reason to cleanse me. My current performance is that they will fight for me in the future. My reason for speaking." Jia Ke had seen the faces of these civil servants clearly, so he expressed his opinion to Fan Kang with confidence.

Chapter 338 Allies

After hearing Jia Ke's words, Fan Kang couldn't help but nodded in agreement. It is undeniable that those who have integrity throughout the ages are from civil servants. There are so many loyal ministers and righteous men, but these people are a minority after all.And the vast majority of scholars are following the trend, in order to have an official to do anything, they can do anything.

And it is these people that Jia Ke wants to use. For those people with integrity, Jia Ke may not be able to win over them.

After Fan Kang made up his mind, he made several suggestions to Jia Ke.

First, to fight with the emperor and the Supreme Emperor. This fight is not about fighting for power and profit, but about fighting for the interests of the people of the world, and portraying myself as a kind of sage who does not care about his own safety for the sake of the people of the world.Some time ago, Jia Ke did a good job. Although Jia Ke's reputation among the gentry was not good, but among ordinary people, Jia Ke was the master of the sky who pleaded for the people.

The second is to win over some civil servants to a limited extent. These people will be Jia Ke in the future, the foundation of controlling the court, and the main targets are those who have no ambitions but think they have great talents.In the future, it is not necessary for these people to have great talents, as long as they follow Jia Ke's orders.The most important thing is not to allow the emperor and the Supreme Emperor to form a unified voice in the court. As long as there are voices of opposition, Jia Ke can use these to fight back.

Third, since the emperor wants to act, let's continue to act with him.Taking advantage of the emperor's weakness at this time, he further controlled the court, and made all the grass facing upwards shift to his side. Once Jia Ke did something at that time, these people would not have much opposition due to inertia. It can make Jia Ke pass the initial period smoothly in the end.

Jia Ke thought over Fan Kang's words carefully. This is indeed Jia Ke's weakness during this period of time. Jia Ke has always focused on the army, and never wins over the civil servants in the court. The isolation of the court.

Now that the army has made almost the same arrangements, it's time to win over a force of our own among the civil servants. Some people can stand up and cheer for themselves in the court even if they don't play much role.

However, Jia Ke is not very sure about winning over the civil servants in the court. It seems that he can only take one step at a time, as much as he can win, and it doesn't matter if he has no one to rely on. There are many scholars in the world who want to be officials Yes, no one will worry about using it in the future.

Jia Ke thought it would be a big deal to transfer Jia Yucun, which he controlled, from the Jinling Mansion back to the imperial court, and give him an important position, with his own support, and he would be able to rise up after a few years.

With Jia Yucun's ability and his unwillingness to be lonely, he will be able to win over a group of courtiers for his own use in the future.

Jia Ke and Fan Kang discussed the action plan for this period of time, and they both relaxed.

Then Jia Ke asked Fan Kang with a smile, "Sir, if you were the emperor, what would you do now?"

"My lord's words are a bit presumptuous, but if I were the emperor, I would listen to my lord, cry to the Supreme Emperor, and even bribe the people around the Supreme Emperor to speak for me." Fan Kang knew the current situation clearly, almost Everything the emperor can do has been said.

"Sir, I think the emperor will do the first two, but I'm afraid it's not so easy to win over the people around the emperor?" Jia Ke didn't believe that Dai Quan would vote for the emperor.

Fan Kang laughed, "If you don't believe my lord, just wait and see. I think Dai Quan, the head of the Six Palaces, is already a little dissatisfied with your lord."

"I have never offended him since I became the chief minister of the Military Aircraft Department. How could he be dissatisfied with me?" Jia Ke seemed to have little experience in these favors.
