Chapter 282: See Shen Li (2)

Guo Zhiyuan smiled bitterly and did not respond. In fact, he knew not to say anything about Chen Li. The Ming Dynasty's central government's control over local areas has become increasingly weaker, and bullying the superiors and concealing subordinates has long become a well-known hidden officialdom. Rules, as the second auxiliary to the cabinet, Chen Li naturally knew very well how dark the Ming Dynasty's court is now, but he was unable to change it, so he was determined to leave and voluntarily resigned to Emperor Wanli several times.

Chen Li knew that he had asked an embarrassing question when he saw Guo Zhiyuan's expression, so he no longer had to worry about this question. He asked Guo Zhiyuan about the specific story of the rebellion. Guo Zhiyuan naturally would not hide it from him, and told him that the story of the matter was in vain. Chen Li couldn't help but patted the armrest of the chair and sighed: "I really came out, and told him that Emperor Wanli had passed the level of the pass. He just needed to stand up and oppose Chen Li could help him speak.

Chen Li frowned as soon as he heard this and said, "Building a government office in Dongfan? This matter is probably not easy to accomplish. Someone has mentioned this discussion before, and it was rejected when the court discussed. You promised the emperor that you don't need to spend a monday and a grain of food, and you also donated 100,000 taels of tax silver to the court every year. How is this possible? If you can't do it, wouldn't it be a crime of deceiving the king? Your nephew is still too reckless!

Guo Zhiyuan hurriedly said: My nephew is sure, so he dares to promise the emperor. As for how to do it, please forgive me. I can’t say it now. Only by passing the court’s proposal can I make the conditions to the emperor, otherwise everything will be empty talk.

Chen Li saw that Guo Zhiyuan was confident and didn't ask questions again. After thinking about it, he said: Well, since my nephew has a plan, I won't ask more. Everyone in the court knows that I and Shen Yiguan are not in harmony. If he opposes, I will be able to speak for you. However, Chen Yiguan's Zhejiang Party is not small in power in the court, and I am afraid that

Guo Zhiyuan saw that Chen Li was overjoyed to help him speak, and hurriedly said: Please don’t worry, since my nephew has made this proposal, he still has some confidence in his heart. As long as Mr. Chen stands up and supports him, there will naturally be someone to stand up and support him.

Chen Li looked at Guo Zhiyuan deeply. He himself did not like to play with such skills as unity and alliance. He always advocated that national affairs were excluded from private parties. Once, Zhang Juzheng, whom he respected the most, asked him to write memorials in his private house. Chen Li immediately refused. He stubbornly thought that state affairs were state affairs, and private affairs were private affairs. Public and private affairs must not be confused and compared. If it is a private matter, it can be done in either of you and me, then what kind of morality is it? Because of this, Chen Li was often isolated by ministers in the court.

However, Chen Li is gradually realizing that his personality is actually not suitable for being involved in the officialdom. So although he does not agree with Guo Zhiyuan's skills, he does not object. He sighs and said: It's really awesome for young people. I am not as good as you, but I hope you remember that at any time, you must not form a party for personal gain, and you must not use any means to achieve your goals!

Guo Zhiyuan was shocked. He knew that Chen Li had actually seen through his thoughts. He hurriedly said: Master’s teachings, my nephew will not dare to forget them!

After leaving the Chen Mansion, Guo Zhiyuan breathed a little relieved. Chen Li agreed to speak for him. He had an extra strong support, but this was far from enough. Chen Li said just now that he could not fight Chen Yiguan alone, so Guo Zhiyuan had to find a stronger strong support. Of course, Guo Zhiyuan had a candidate in his heart, but Guo Zhiyuan was not sure whether he could convince this person, because this person was not as upright and open as Chen Li. As long as it was a good thing to the Ming Dynasty, it would not be difficult to convince Chen Li to support him. If it was not a last resort, Guo Zhiyuan even hoped that he would never meet this person, because he knew that if he could not convince this person, he would not only not help him, but might also bring him a murderous disaster!

(: Everyone might as well guess who Guo Zhiyuan is going to meet next?)
