The wind blowing in from the door opened suddenly hit the charcoal fire, and the red charcoal fire rose and swayed with the wind.

Zhong Shiheng entered the room and hurriedly closed the door. Turning around and seeing Xu Ping sitting in the upper head, Yang Gao and Wang Yaochen separated from each other, both of whom were calm and silent, and the atmosphere was a little heavy. Zhong Shiheng found a seat and sat down, waiting for Xu Ping to speak quietly.

After a while, Xu Pinghao suddenly woke up from his thoughts. Seeing that everyone who was coming in front of him had come, he said, "Today I am looking for you to come to Jingxi Road. These days, Master Yan went to his daughter's place for a while, but he didn't ask about political affairs. How we deal with it, we must discuss it in the next few days."

These people were present that day. Although they did not hear what Yan Shu and Xu Ping said, there was still some wind. After hearing Xu Ping's words, they were silent for a while.

Yan Shu's son-in-law Fu Bi is from Luoyang. At this time, Fu Bi was appointed as the magistrate in Jiangzhou. Mrs. Yan did not take office with him, but still stayed in Luoyang to take care of the tribe. Since Yan Shu arrived in Luoyang, of course he had to live with his daughter for some time. He also intended to take this opportunity to let Xu Ping discuss countermeasures with his subordinates and how to deal with it.

Fu Bi also came from a family of officials, but since his great-grandfather Fu Chuqian, he was not very high, and the highest was the county magistrate. His father Fu Yan was promoted to the Bing position in the third year of Xianping, Zhenzong, and was awarded the same Jinshi as a Jinshi. Such a Jinshi ranking should start from the lowest level of selection. Fu Yan has been an official in the supervisor and has been an official for more than 30 years. He has just been promoted to the prefect of Wanzhou this year.

When Fu Yan was in charge of Taizhou wine tax, Fan Zhongyan happened to be in charge of Xixi Salt Cang in Taizhou. The two were both officials in Taizhou and had a close relationship at that time. The twenty-year-old Fu Bi met Fan Zhongyan at this time and left a deep impression on Fan Zhongyan. This was also the turning point of Fu Bi's life. Eight years later, Fu Bi failed to be a Jinshi and left the capital to Yaozhou, where his father was an official. When he arrived in Shanzhou, he was caught up by the people sent by Fan Zhongyan and urged him to return to Beijing to participate in the discipline. In order to fear that Fu Bi would not return to Beijing, he also used a provocation method. Fu Bi, who was not good at poetry and prose, won the first Mao Caiyi and other subject in one go, and became the first Mao Caiyi and other person since the Song Dynasty. It was also this year, shortly after he became the first Mao Caiyi and other person to enter the imperial examination. Shortly after he became the first person to enter the imperial examination, Fan Zhongyan introduced that Fu Bi married the eldest daughter of Yan Shu, who was ten years younger than him, and began a political career of a famous prime minister.

Fu Bi is not good at poetry and prose, but is good at strategy and theory. If he does not participate in the system, he may not be able to pass the Jinshi in his life. This is somewhat similar to Xu Ping, but Xu Ping can still copy it according to his own way, while Fu Bi disdained to do so. He studied hard since childhood, and the only one who can compare with him is the only Sima Guang who is married and sleeps alone on a police pillow, and does not meet his wife. It is because of his high self-esteem and firmly believes that he can learn to assist the king with his own talent and achieve great achievements. Fu Bi has no intention of taking advantage of the same trick as Xu Ping. However, it is precisely because of this similarity that Yan Shu slowly changed his impression of Xu Ping.

What is worthy of Xu Ping's concern is that the relationship between Yan Shu and Fan Zhongyan can be seen from Fu Bi. When Yan Shu knew Yingtian Mansion, he asked Fan Zhongyan, who was guarding his mother's mourning, to preside over the Yingtian Academy and open a generation of academic style. When Fan Zhongyan's mourning period ended, it was under the instruction of Wang Zeng that Yan Shu recommended Fan Zhongyan to take the exam for the Bachelor's College and obtained the position of the secret cabinet. He took the position of the position of the library, and Fan Zhongyan changed the political destiny of being a lower-level official and was promoted rapidly.

Although Yan Shu has always remained neutral in the government, he is on Wang Zeng's side in his inner position. However, Yan Shu is a wealthy prime minister after all, and has a position, but lacks the courage to show his position. It is precisely because of this that Lu Yijian agreed to come to Jingxi Road. No matter what he thinks in his heart, Lu Yijian believes that Yan Shu will bow his head in the face of power.

After rectifying these relationships in his heart, Xu Ping cheered up and said to everyone present: "There are no outsiders here, so I will say it directly. Mr. Yan came here this time because he hoped that we could agree with the words of Lu Gong of the Chaoli and write off the tickets in the hands of Henan Prefecture. In this way, the officials of Jingxi Road, including you, have worked hard this year, and their political achievements are mediocre, and some may be ugly. As compensation, Jingxi Road Caosi, Xianshi, Shuaishi, and various prefectures and counties, except for Mengzhou and Xiangzhou, all the officials and candidates of Jingxi Road were promoted to Jingxi Road. In addition, ten places were taken out to Jingxi Road to be promoted to Jingxi Road to reward the merits. Everything else, including the officials of the branch office making noise in the court, will never be mentioned again!"

After Xu Ping said that, Yang Gao looked at the others and asked in a low voice: "What if we don't agree?"

Xu Ping sneered: "Then the case that the branch officials sued us will be brought up. This is true in the officialdom. How the facts are not important and how to deal with them in the end depends on what Mr. Yan said after returning to the court. I think that unless something special happens, Mr. Yan will not violate the intention of Mr. Lu Xianggong."

Wang Yaochen raised his head and said in a deep voice: "Yunxing, you have always been the ones in charge of the matter on Jingxi Road. We follow you to have this situation today. How to do it, you first say what you mean."

When Xu Ping saw the others nodded and said seriously, "If I follow me, I will not be able to agree to Mr. Lu. We are in the court, so we want to be promoted to a higher position, but we cannot be so unclear. When the general promotion is made, as long as the three departments repay the tickets for Henan Prefecture, the accounts of each prefecture, counties and government offices are clear, and where are the political achievements, how can we not be moved? Why do we have to do this?"

Yang Gao nodded: "The words of the capital are reasonable! We deserve to be moved to an official position. What is it that we don't understand?"

Wang Yaochen and Zhong Shiheng nodded together, obviously the same thing. With political achievements, they can not only be able to be promoted to an official position, but also their political capital in the future. They have a profound influence. If they are lucky, they may become successful.

Seeing that everyone agreed, Xu Ping sighed: "To be serious, we have occupied the word "Li". But it is not easy to get the word "Li" to the court to recognize it. If you cannot convince Mr. Yan to speak to us, everything will be in vain. You have been officials for many years, and I don't need to talk about the specific methods. Everyone knows that once Mr. Yan returns to Beijing to speak to the branch officials, and Lu Xianggong uses the name of the Political Affairs Hall to suppress anything we say, it is useless. So if we want to not act according to Mr. Lu Xianggong's wishes, the only thing we can do is to convince Mr. Yan and let him report the truth."

When Yang Gao saw that the other two people didn't speak, he had to say, "How can I convince Mr. Yan of Yiducao?"

Xu Ping smiled bitterly and said, "I can't give a clear statement now when I'm anxious now. But there is always a principle that I must make Mr. Yan believe that after the report is true, we can turn things over! Another thing is that I must make Mr. Yan believe that after we turn things over, Mr. Lu can't do anything to him. Mr. Yan was a prodigy and was an official since he was a child. He has seen many official storms. It is not easy to make him believe this. Think about it, how can he calm his heart."
