The Ming Dynasty's Spokesperson

Chapter 108 The mastermind behind the scenes

Any rhetoric that confuses people has a certain inherent progressive logic.

The first key point of Professor Lin's long speech tonight is that Wang Xijue's entry into the cabinet was indeed recommended by the trio of Li Zhi, Yang Keli, and Jiang Dongzhi. Wang Xijue was also Li Zhi's teacher.

The Three People's Party is extremely anti-Zhang Juzheng, and even the current Prime Minister Shen Shixing is regarded by the Three People's Party as a remnant of Zhang Juzheng and has been attacking him.

The Three People's Party recommended teacher Wang Xijue to join the cabinet, and their original intention was indeed to use Wang Xijue to squeeze Shen Shixing.

And Wang Xijue did not refuse the opportunity to join the cabinet, and went to the capital to take up the post without avoiding suspicion.

The above are all real materials, but how to do reading comprehension depends entirely on each person's free experience.

The second important point Professor Lin said is that the forces in the literary and art circles with Wang Shizhen as the core currently do not have much enthusiasm for the Shen family, and they do not take the younger son Shen who is guarding the family too seriously.

But this can be explained as the natural alienation of the "old aristocrats" from the "new rich", or the habitual pretentiousness of the "old aristocrats".

But combined with the first point, it can be interpreted as that Wang Xijue's close friend Wang Shizhen deliberately excluded the Second Young Master Shen because of political issues.

Logically, it can be completely justified, as long as it can arouse human suspicion, it will be successful.

However, the second young master Shen Yong and Jiashen already regretted his gaffe!

Just now, the atmosphere was just right, so I blurted out the words in a contagious manner.

It would be too hasty to start cooperation immediately.

Even if the conspiracy you Lin Tailai said is true, even if your guesses Lin Tailai make sense!

But he applied for a prime minister, couldn't he handle it on his own? Can't you find allies?

Even if we want to fight back, we don’t have to be tied up with you low-level “righteous men” and hang out together!

If he is still asked to take the initiative to cooperate with you, Second Young Master Shen, where should he put his face?

So Shen Yongjia immediately picked up the air again and said to Lin Tai:

“I’ve thought about it carefully and found that although what you said makes some sense, it is still mostly speculation and lacks circumstantial evidence and solid evidence.

Therefore, please step back and let me think twice before proceeding! "

Lin Tailai quickly replied: "Maybe some of the inside information is just speculation, but the sincerity of my fellow villagers towards Prime Minister Shen cannot be true anymore!"

Shen Yongjia said perfunctorily: "I know, I know."

Lin Tailai went on to say: "We support Prime Minister Shen with all our strength, not for fame or fortune, but for the sake of our fellow countrymen. I just ask Mr. Shen not to look down on me, who is so humble!"

Shen Yongjia, who was in his early twenties, was still too young and continued to talk perfunctorily:

"Okay, okay! I accepted it on behalf of my father. Thank you very much to the neighbors for your love!"

Second Young Master Shen thought that as a noble young master, he would be pestered for a while by the "countrymen" who wanted to curry favor with him.

Suddenly, I saw Professor Lin turning around and leaving quickly, and then I saw Professor Lin greeting the crowd:

"It's done! It's done! The club will have dinner tonight! It will be held at Zhenze Restaurant in Xizhong City, Changmenli. Let's celebrate together!"

In the blink of an eye, the crowd in front of the Shen Mansion disappeared.

The imposing banners and bright and brilliant torches also disappeared in an instant.

Looking at the quiet door, Second Young Master Shen suddenly felt a little bit lonely.

Maybe we should give these "righteous men" more opportunities to curry favor with us?

These people left as soon as they said they would. If they were really sincere, shouldn't they make three requests and three concessions?

At this moment, there were only a lot of passers-by watching the excitement, pointing and talking not far away.

After all, Lin Tailai's team shouted slogans loudly along the way, and there were really many idle people following them to watch the fun.

Second Young Master Shen returned to his mansion and discussed the matter with Ma Guanzhuang of Shen's Yizhuang.

Then they discussed: “I really don’t know what they are here for, is it just to shout a few slogans?

If you really want to serve my Shen family, you won't ask me what to do and just leave. "

Ma Guanzhuang has more experience than Second Young Master Shen, and after hearing this, he roughly understood what was going on.

Did Cao Cao still need to consult with Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty to act? Just borrowing a name is enough!

But he couldn't tell Prince Shen directly that you were regarded as Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty! That’s too low of emotional intelligence.

After thinking about it, Ma Guanzhuang hinted: "According to my observation, Lin Tailai's name is Jinbu, which is actually Mengde!"

Second Master Shen frowned and said, "I always feel that something is wrong, but I can't think of it at the moment."

The next day, the first person to be alarmed by last night's news was Magistrate Feng of Wuxian County Government.

Early in the morning, he was woken up by his staff master.

The master didn't care whether the proprietor had slept well or not, and reported directly:

"I just heard an emergency. It seems that Lin Tailai has something to do with the Shen family. Yesterday, he helped Shen's Yizhuang fight!

And as many people witnessed last night, Lin Tailai and Shen Yongjia had a very close conversation at the gate of Shen Mansion. "

When Feng Zhixian heard this, his whole heart went numb, and he subconsciously shouted: "Wang Shizhen is harming me!"

He started to punish Lin Tailai in order to gain the opportunity to contact Wang Xijue.

But it would be even more uneconomical to provoke Shen Shixing, the first assistant, for Wang Xijue!

The master dutifully continued to report: "There are also rumors that Wang Xijue and Shen Shixing are fighting for power, and Wang Shizhen came to Suzhou to help out."

Feng Zhixian's eyebrows knitted into a ball. Sure enough, the officialdom was really dangerous!

He was just a seventh-grade county magistrate, so why did he get involved in the discord between the chief minister and another great scholar?

Feng Zhixian decided to go to Gusuyi to ask Wang Shizhen for an explanation.

At this time, in Gusu Station, the old alliance leader Wang, who woke up from a hangover, also listened to the report of his son Wang Shisu.

"So, I am finally the number one hot topic today?" Leader Wang said while suppressing his emotions.

The most hotly discussed topic today is that the old alliance leader went to Suzhou City to hold a conference and it turned out that there was a shocking conspiracy to help a fellow countryman with the same surname, a bachelor, fight for power.

Wang Shisu didn't know whether this first place was good or bad news, "Anyway, I finally pushed Lin Tailai to second place."

The second-place topic was that Professor Lin held up a banner "Follow justice and fight against rebellion, clarify the literary world" outside the gate of Shen Mansion. The Second Young Master Shen cordially received Professor Lin.

Alliance leader Wang Lao asked: "Didn't you see something?"

Wang Shisu replied sincerely: "This Lin Tailai is quite imaginative. My son, I almost believed the joke he made up."

Leader Wang was so angry that he slapped the case and said: "Idiot! Didn't you realize that Shen Yongjia might be the mastermind behind the scenes that we have never found?

I was originally doubtful that Lin Tailai should not be so bold as to cause trouble!

Now I understand, it turns out that Shen Yongjia is making trouble secretly, and Lin Tailai is just a figure in front of the stage!

But I was careless and only stared at Lin Tailai, not Shen Yongjia, which resulted in me being slightly passive. "

There’s a plot detail below that I’ve been thinking about for a day and can’t figure out. I’ll try my best to make up the word count tomorrow.
