Chapter 1290 Really worthy of my unicorn
Capital, Yan Mansion.
Wang Meng ordered his cronies to deliver the secret letter to the Yan Mansion, and it was delivered to Yan Song on the morning of the third day. After Yan Song received the secret letter, he attached great importance to it, and immediately called Zhao Wenhua, Yan Maoqing, Wang Xueyi and other capable confidants to circulate the secret letter.
Actually, Yan Song also sent someone to call Yan Shifan, but Yan Shifan was outside, not in the Yan Mansion.
"About Zhu Ping'an's proposal, I would like to hear your opinions." Yan Song asked with narrowed eyes.
Zhao Wenhua and others are veterans in the officialdom, and they have seen more and deeper than Xu Hai, Tan Lun and others.
The pros and cons of secret folding, they have already analyzed almost all of them in a short time. Yan Song nodded repeatedly.
"Xu Hai and the others will return to Beijing in the near future. The matter of the secret report will definitely be reported to the Holy Majesty. The Holy Majesty may ask the old man for his opinion. In your opinion, what attitude should the old man take at that time, whether to support it or oppose it?"
Yan Song took a sip of tea, soothed his throat, opened his cloudy eyes, glanced at Zhao Wenhua and others and asked.
"Ge Lao, Zhu Ping'an, this little thief has evil intentions. He secretly writes things, and the content is unknown to outsiders. He is bound to encourage impeachment and whistleblowers. If things go on like this, I'm afraid it will shake Ge Lao's image and status in the heart of the Holy One."
Yan Maoqing first said that he was opposed to the secret book, and believed that if the secret book was implemented, it would cause endless harm.
"Brother Jing Qing is overthinking. Only the Holy Majesty can read the secret books, and besides working on state affairs, the Holy Majesty also has to practice Taoism and alchemy. He is already exhausted and doesn't have much energy to review the secret books, so the secret books are bound to not be popularized on a large scale. Certainly only ministers who are favored by the Holy One can have this honor, and the ministers who are trusted by the Holy One are mostly people in the same way as me, and the secret book will become a sharp weapon in our hands."
After hearing what Yan Maoqing said, Zhao Wenhua shook his head slightly and put forward a different point of view.
"Meicun, you are in charge of the general political envoy, how can you say this. If there is no secret report, all the memorials in the world will be the general political envoy, and there is no memorial to conceal the elders of the pavilion. It is Wang Zongmao and other young people who go to the court to slander the pavilion. Old man, if you leave the injury for a few days, it is enough to give us enough time to deal with it. If we implement the secret book, the secret book will go directly to the imperial court without going through the general secretary, and submit it to the emperor. Wouldn't we abolish our martial arts ?!"
Yan Maoqing spoke again.
Yan Song couldn't help but nodded slightly when he heard the words, Yan Maoqing's words reached an important point.
"No, just as I said just now. Secret books will not be implemented on a large scale. If those who do not have the right to report on secret books still have to go through the General Secretary. In my opinion, due to the limited energy of the Holy One, even if it is implemented Secret Zhe, the number of ministers authorized will not exceed a hundred. Moreover, the vast majority are people of the same kind as me. Those who are not of my kind will be strictly monitored, and they will not be able to turn the tide."
Zhao Wenhua said calmly.
"Uncontrolled uneasy factors, it is better to get rid of them early. The status quo is very good, so there is no need to take risks."
Yan Maoqing shook his head, but was not persuaded by Zhao Wenhua.
"Although the status quo is good, wouldn't it be better to go further. There is no limit to the contents of the secret booklet. This secret booklet is by no means as simple as a memorandum. In my opinion, it is a collection of records from Yushi, Jinyiwei, Dongchang, and others. Combining several high-ranking positions in one body, with one day's secrets in hand, we have more identities such as Yushi, Jinyiwei, Dongchang, and Gishizhong. Plus, getting along with us can be regarded as a pleasure, but he is still not his own person, and he has a lot of nasty things in private. Last year, he sheltered the traitor Shen Lian, which can be seen. Not to mention Dongchang. If you have a secret book in your hand , we are equivalent to countless more Jinyiwei, Yushi, Dongchang, and other positions. It is such a pity to discard them without using them. Sailing against the current, if you don't advance, you will retreat. Please father-in-law think twice.
Zhao Wenhua smiled slightly, and analyzed the functions hidden behind secret folds, and highly praised secret folds.
Actually, except for these.
Zhao Wenhua still has selfishness and ambitions, and he goes straight to the front of the imperial court. He is very envious of this sharp weapon that is close to the Holy One. The reason why he took the risk to offer the Holy Hundred Flowers Wine last time was because he wanted to get close to Emperor Jiajing! It's a pity that stealing the chicken is not enough to lose the rice. Not only did he fail to achieve his goal, but he also angered his foster father Yan Song. If it weren't for the step-mother to intercede, he would have been severed by his step-father and kicked out of the house.
Now that he has discovered the sharp weapon of Secret Zhe, his hidden selfishness and ambition are ready to move again.
Mi Zhe combines several major positions such as Yushi, Jinyiwei, Dongchang, and Gishizhong.
After listening to Zhao Wenhua's analysis, Yan Song couldn't help but nodded again. Secret Zhe really makes people love and hate.
Yan Song remained calm, glanced at Wang Xueyi and the others who hadn't spoken yet, "Xueyi, what do you think?"
After Wang Xueyi was called by Yan Song's name, he paused for two seconds before opening his mouth, "Mr. Ge, from the humble point of view, this secret book is a double-edged sword. If it is used well, it can make great achievements for us. If it is not used well, it will It can also hurt me, etc."
"Slippery! What you said is no different from saying nothing?!" Yan Song glanced at him and reprimanded him.
What kind of **** double-edged sword, it seems to have a clear point of view, but in fact it is equivalent to not saying anything
Wang Xueyi's style of building a wall, how can he get away with it under the eyes of Yan Song, an old fox.
Wang Xueyi shrank his neck resentfully.
At this moment, Yan Shifan came back, smelling of alcohol and makeup, he obviously crawled out from the crowd of women.
"Smells like makeup, and went out to fool around again?!" Yan Song gave Yan Shifan a displeased look.
Yan Shifan stepped forward to please Yan Song and poured tea for Yan Song, and quibbled with a smile, "Father, son, I am working hard for our old Yan's family. How can I be called a fool."
"Fart!" Yan Song cursed angrily, of course it wasn't really a curse, and then threw Wang Meng's secret letter to Yan Shifan, "Look, it's a secret matter, if the Holy Majesty asks about it, what attitude should I take? ?
After Yan Shifan read it again, he asked Zhao Wenhua, Yan Maoqing and others about their attitudes, and couldn't help laughing.
"What are you laughing at?" Yan Song asked angrily.
"Father, you are just looking for fish from a tree. What attitude should you take? The key depends on whether the secret book is good or bad for the Holy One. If the secret book is beneficial to the Holy Master, you will naturally support it; if the secret book is not good for the Holy Master, you will always I should swear against it to the death." Yan Shifan said with a smile, his one eye was shining brightly.
When Yan Song heard the words, he was enlightened, suddenly realized, and nodded in appreciation of Yan Shifan, as expected of my unicorn.
"This secret book is to encourage the ministers to inform, so that all the officials are on guard against each other, check each other, guard against disobedience, guard against deceit, and help the Holy One to control the power alone, so that the king can change the king, and the ministers should change the ministers. It must be very much in line with the wishes of the Holy One." Looking at the table, he said confidently, "What I have to consider is how to make the secret book work for me."
