Daming talker

Chapter 267 Who is the fourth?

When Zhao Yongxian was complaining about Wang Shizhen, the old alliance leader, he didn't know that Shi Xing, the left deputy capital censor, who was also the fifth son of the retro faction, was also complaining about Zhao Yongxian.

What Shi Xing was thinking was that you, Zhao Yongxian, knew that Lin Tailai was in the capital, yet you dared to hold an elegant gathering with great fanfare. Didn't this give Lin Tailai an opportunity to cause trouble?
Didn’t the lessons learned by Mr. Wang from the Suzhou Literary Forum and the Mid-Autumn Festival Night on the Qinhuai River in Nanjing last year not be enough?

Even Alliance Leader Wang Lao shuns his edge, how can you, Zhao Yongxian, be stronger than Alliance Leader Wang Lao?
Although Zhao Yongxian may have felt the dissatisfaction from his colleagues, he also had other reasons.

This gathering was scheduled in advance, and Lin Tailai's arrival in the capital was not expected at that time.

Moreover, the student Tang Wenwen was the number one scholar in the first half of the month, so it was only now that he held the gathering to become the number one scholar. If it were later, the popularity would have passed.

Seeing that Zhao Yongxian was still stunned and didn't say anything for a long time, Lin Tailai took the initiative to ask: "Does Bachelor Zhao have anything else to say about my qualifications?"

In fact, Zhao Yongxian has a lot of flaws. If you want to target Zhao Yongxian, there are no other "hands" you can use.

For example, in history, Zhao Yongxian had no choice but to withdraw from politics after being accused of "breaking off his engagement".

But it would be too wasteful to spend precious resources on a mere gathering, so Lin Daguanren just used sophistry to suppress Zhao Yongxian today, which was enough.

"Hahahaha!" Lin Daguan, who had the upper hand, laughed several times, "Since Academician Zhao no longer questions my qualifications, I will seek justice for Mr. Xu Wen!"

Shi Xinghe, another one of the five successors of the retro school, asked: "Then what justice do you want to seek?"

But Lin Tailai ignored Shi Xing and crossed over Shi Xing to attack Zhang Jiayin, the Minister of War.

Then he kicked the ball back and asked: "How does Da Sima think we should give justice to Xu Wenchang?"

The generation with the highest status in the retro group today is, of course, the famous Hou Qizi.

Zhang Jiayin, as one of the last seven sons, is of course the leader of the retro sect in the capital and even in the north.

Therefore, if official Lin wanted to ask for an explanation, he would of course go directly to the eldest Zhang Jiayin.

Zhang Jiayin, who was in his [-]s, had been in the local government for a long time, and had experienced a lot of experience. After watching the excitement for a long time, he didn't panic when he saw that it was finally about him.

After taking a sip of tea, he responded to Lin Tailai calmly:

"It was Wang Yuanmei who advocated the rejection of Xu Wenchang back then. If you want to seek justice for Xu Wenchang, you should go to Wang Yuanmei. What are you making a fuss about here?"

Lin Tailai: "."

Among the big guys of the retro school, there are still such pragmatic people?

After thinking about it, Lin Tailai tried again: "Da Sima, as one of the seven sons of the retro school, is a giant in today's literary world.

Now when it comes to Xu Wenchang, don't you even dare to show your attitude?If word gets out, I'm afraid it will disappoint fellow writers. "

Zhang Jiayin answered meaningfully: "I am first the crown prince's Taibao, the Minister of the Ministry of War, and the Feiyufu, and then I am the seventh son of the retro sect.

At this point in life, what else do you want?The false reputation is like a floating cloud to me, and I no longer need to bear in mind the turmoil in the literary world. "

Lin Daguan, who always likes to show off in front of others, was finally put on a small show by others today.

An ordinary minister is an ordinary minister, but if he adds the title of palace protector, he becomes a senior minister, and the class of court meetings must be moved forward.

And under normal circumstances, those who are given the title of palace protection are those with the title of Prince Shaobao.Adding in the situation of a first-grade crown prince and Taibao, it is very rare.

This shows that after accumulating a lot of achievements and then gaining the appreciation of the emperor, he was promoted from the crown prince's younger brother to the crown prince's Taibao, not to mention being given the flying fish suit.

Therefore, the subtext of Zhang Jiayin's words is that I have achieved a great honor, and my achievements in work exceed those in the literary world.

Therefore, the literary status of Seven Sons of the Retro School has come to the back for me and is no longer the most important one.

You, Lin Tailai, don't even think about kidnapping me on the pretext of fame in the literary world.Even if I don’t want to be known as the seventh son of the retro school, what will happen?

After thinking about it, Lin Daguan finally realized that he seemed to have encountered a tough idea this time.

Zhang Da Sima's statement is really sober for the world.

It also reveals a sense of detachment and achieves inner balance.

In addition to being awake in the world, Zhang Jiayin, the Minister of War, also has a natural advantage.

That is, the Minister of the Ministry of War is the person who presides over the martial arts examination, and the results of the martial arts examination are in Zhang Jiayin's hands.

This power is of no use to most scholars, but for Lin Daguan, who is determined to cultivate both civil and military skills, it is a bit restrained.

Therefore, the more Lin Daguan thought about it, the more difficult it became, but he had to find a way to break Zhang Jiayin's inner balance and destroy his detached mentality.

While thinking about it, he said: "I, Lin Tailai, love both literature and martial arts, and I often feel troubled by my identity.

Therefore, I pay special attention to those ministers who are both civil and military. After careful summarization, I selected the four most civil and military ministers of this dynasty!

The first, Wang Yangming, learned martial arts carefully and was eventually awarded a title as a civil servant;

The second Yang Yiqing, from the governor to the first assistant, can be called a general or a prime minister, and he also has articles and classics passed down to the world;
The third Wang Tingxiang, one of the first seven sons of your ancient restoration sect, also served as the Minister of War and the Governor of Jingying. He was also talented in literature and military strategy. "

Everyone nodded while listening. The combination proposed by Lin Tailai was very creative.

I don’t want to brag or be slanderous. The three people mentioned so far are relatively fair. They are all recognized as having both civil and military skills and profound attainments in all aspects.

Of course, Wang Yangming's comprehensive achievements are unique, but the other candidates are not too bad, they are all top ministers.

But after naming the three candidates, Lin Tailai deliberately stopped.

Wang Zhiyou, who came to see the fun, couldn't wait to ask: "You were talking about the top four before, but what about the fourth one?"

Lin Tailai replied: "The Big Four is just a common collective term that has been established by convention, and I am accustomed to using the Big Four.

As for the fourth minister who is both civil and military, I am still considering it. "

At this time, many people turned their attention to Zhang Jiayin.

Compared with Wang Ting, the famous minister of the predecessors and the Minister of War in the early Jiajing Dynasty, Zhang Jiayin seems to be made from the same template.

They were all young high school scholars, both had served in local governments for a long time and had quelled unrest. They were both among the "seven men of the retro style" in the literary world, and their final official positions were all ministers of the Ministry of War.

If Wang Tingxiang can be selected into the "Big Four", then Zhang Jiayin who shares the same template should certainly be selected.

Zhang Jiayin slowly put down the tea cup and looked at Lin Tailai hesitantly.

Oops, this is a heart-pounding feeling!The first one is Wang Yangming!

Lin Tailai continued to say to Wang Zhiyou: "Actually, I only mentioned three candidates. Another reason is that I am determined to be the fourth!
Therefore, a false reputation in the literary world is still very useful. If there is no blessing from the false reputation in the literary world, what will be used for selection? "

Zhang Jiayin: "."

The Seventh Son of the Retro-style Empress and Minister of the Ministry of War is sitting here, and you, Lin Tailai, are ignoring you?

Or do you think that other than you, Lin Tailai, no one else can copy your ideas and make your own selections?
