Before the ship approached the dock by the river, Shi Yiwen had already heard about Nanjing from the ship he encountered on the road, and naturally he also heard about the changes in the capital. While he was dumbfounded, he still rushed to Nanjing as soon as possible. After several reports, he had to enter the city.

"Zhiyuan, when did you come back? What's the result over there!"

As soon as he saw Shi Yiwen, Lu Diaoyang shouted loudly, looking particularly excited. He was too anxious to come back. Lu Diaoyang had been worried about the future development of the situation.

"I've met Mr. Gong,"

Shi Yiwen, who bowed and returned, said with a smile:

"The journey was smooth and the boat was very fast, so I rushed back as soon as I was busy there."

"Oh, so, your arrangements have been made?"

Lu Tiyang grinned and he finally breathed a sigh of relief. So many people... after killing them, he would not be able to make up his mind no matter what.

"That's fine, that's fine, come in quickly, we're just talking together."

He held Shi Yiwen until he arrived at the study, and Lu Diaoyang let go of his hand and said to Shi Yiwen.

"Do you know everything?"

"I heard a little bit, and I heard that they were in trouble during Shenxing in the capital? Why did it get messy here?"

Staring at Shi Yiwen, Lu Diaoyang looked out the window again, and then said.

"This is the thing. Yesterday I received a secret letter from the Prime Minister Babaili to send, and then ordered the city gate to close. The news from the capital has not yet come. What I am most worried about now is the report on the situation in the capital..."

Then Lu Diaoyang introduced what he learned to Shi Yiwen. Then he stared at him and said:

"Zhiyuan, no one expected the situation to develop to the present level, but the situation in the Ming Dynasty is now in danger!"

After looking out the window, Shi Yiwen, who seemed calm, couldn't calm down for a long time, as if he was striking. They really took action! He really rebelled!

Throughout history, this is probably the first time that civil servants have rebelled! Alas, this is also my own force, which has forced them into a dead end!

However, after forcing those people to a dead end, the situation in the Ming Dynasty also changed subtly. Because he had thought of this possibility for a long time, Shi Yiwen had guessed what Lu Tiyang was worried about, so he lowered his voice and said:

"Are you worried about Jiangling?"

Nodded slightly, Lu Tiaoyang said in a low voice:

"In the past, there were people in the court to restrain Jiangling. After this incident, Jiangling will definitely become the only prime minister of our Ming Dynasty. The strong ministers and the weak kings are definitely not a blessing for our Ming Dynasty. In the past, the strong ministers and the weak kings are just the power of the court. But now... Jiangling has great power, and all officials in the court will rely on their noses. If so, what if..."

Although Lu Diaoyang did not say it, how could Shi Yiwen not hear what he meant? He was worried that Zhang Juzheng would usurp the throne and seize power in the future! He would become the second Wang Mang!

Not to mention Lu Diaoyang was worried, even Shi Yiwen himself had this concern. After all, the temptation of power is irresistible to anyone, let alone even if Zhang Juzheng can control it, what about the people around him? Will the people around him persuade him to enter for his personal glory and wealth?

By then, the Ming Dynasty will be really over!

In fact, it may be a good thing that Zhang Juzheng is the emperor, at least he will be determined to change. However, if this causes turmoil within the Ming Dynasty, thinking about the turbulent situation that may occur in the next few decades, Shi Yiwen's brows became tighter and tighter.

All this must be avoided anyway! But how can we prevent this from happening?

Looking at Lu Diaoyang, who was thin but had a firm will when he came back, and for the future of the Ming Dynasty, Shi Yiwen also said what he said.

"Jiangling is a loyal minister. The late emperor has the kindness of knowing him. He has a half-father relationship with His Majesty. No matter what, he will not become the second Wang Mang."

After saying that, Shi Yiwen said seriously.

"And no one in the world can tolerate him becoming Wang Mang!"

Lu Diaoyang frowned and said.

"You said this, it would be too confident. You should know that even if Jiangling didn't do that, the people around him would push him to sit like this, under one person, above ten thousand people... but in the end, Jiangling must be in power now. How many ministers and weak ministers have a good ending in ancient times? Even Huo Guang will die in the end?"

Lowering his voice, Lu Tiqiang said nervously:

"Besides, the longer Jiangling holds power in the future, the more speculative traitors gathered around him will increase. Once Jiangling dies, His Majesty will regain power in the future. Once Jiangling is liquidated, they will inevitably die at that time. In this way, how can they sit and wait for death? They will definitely try every means to push Jiangling to usurp the throne. In the end, even if Jiangling doesn't want to, he will have to go against the situation!"

Despite the same concerns, Shi Yiwen said with a smile.

"Isn't this still you guys here?"

"Zhiyuan, you are joking!"

Lu Tiaoyang's eyes narrowed into slits and stared at him and said.

"For many years, Jiangling has been so strict with the cabinet. We are just relying on it. After this incident, how could anyone in the court dare to be an enemy of him? As for me... I can only be careful and reluctantly deal with it. As for the others..."

Lu Diaoyang waved his hand and said.

"I'm afraid I can't even think about it, so, Zhiyuan, since this matter is caused by you, you must come up with a way to properly solve this matter no matter what."

“Solve properly…”

Shi Yiwen picked up the teacup and took a sip, then pursed his lips, and finally sighed and said.

"Actually, when I was in the south, I had to consider this matter and speculate one by one about the possible consequences of this matter. Indeed, one of the two worst possible possibilities was that they succeeded in Shenxing. At this time, the cabinet master must fight against rebellion in Nanjing. Even if it is done, it will definitely be a disaster for all living beings. God blessed, this situation did not happen. As for the other possibility, it is Jiangling... Well, what Jiangling will do in the future..."

Facing Lu Diaoyang's gaze, Shi Yiwen said to him.

"Although I don't know if Jiangling will do that in the future, you and I know that he may do that. Even if he doesn't, someone will force him to do that. This possibility is not lacking, and it can even be said to be very large."

"You've thought about it?"

Lu Diaoyang stared at Shi Yiwen and asked.

"Then there must be a solution, right?"

"There is one way."

Shi Yiwen nodded slightly and said in response to Lu Diaoyang's gaze.
