Chongzhen Wiretapping System

Chapter 147
On the throne, Emperor Chongzhen also watched coldly, watching the courtiers below who were yelling against him.This matter was actually predicted in advance during the discussion last night.Therefore, he already had a countermeasure, and he was not in a hurry. He just waited for them to be "filled with righteous indignation". After a while, he would eat the shit that spewed out, and give it another praise, it's really delicious!

Finally, as they were talking, some people began to notice that the emperor's expression seemed wrong, and he seemed a little dissatisfied with them.Come to think of it, when the imperial court was in urgent need of money, they happened to be dozing off and were given a pillow. As a result, the pillow was sprayed on by people like myself before it was put on it. Seeing that the pillow was gone, it was strange that I was in a good mood. .

Thinking about it this way, these people knew that the emperor must be dissatisfied with them, so they felt a little timid in their hearts, and their voices became much weaker. Many people stopped talking when they were talking.

Of course, if they were afraid in their hearts, they were not afraid at all.Because in their opinion, this is something that makes sense to them.Even if you are an emperor, you have to be reasonable!

Seeing that the hall had finally calmed down slowly, Emperor Chongzhen turned his head to look at the lonely man.

As soon as Li Guochen saw it, he knew the time to speak, so he immediately played loudly: "Your Majesty, my late father did tell the Caomin about dividing the family wealth equally! Caomin is willing to guarantee it with his life!"

As soon as they heard what he said, several civil servants jumped out, accused him on the spot, asked who could testify, and asked if there was anything written in black and white... Anyway, it was just one sentence. They asked Li Guochen to provide real evidence.

"Your Majesty, when my late mother begged my late father, my late father agreed on the spot in front of my mother. At that time, my younger brother was also present." Li Guochen immediately argued, "But unexpectedly, my younger brother not only refused Following my father's order, but after my late father's unexpected death, he treated the grassroots harshly and even wanted to drive them away. The above are all true facts, please learn from your majesty!"

Obviously, even if Li Guorui was called for this kind of thing, it would definitely be useless, and Li Guorui would definitely deny it.Only the dead Wu Qinghou himself can tell who is real and who is fake.

In this way, these civil servants became more confident. Many people saw that the few people who spoke before did not seem to have aroused the emperor's wrath, so they followed suit, accusing Li Guochen, and clamoring to punish Li Guochen. The crime of deceiving the king by the ministers of the state!

Seeing this situation, this time, Emperor Chongzhen did not allow them to continue attacking Li Guochen, but suddenly slapped the imperial case and made a "pop" sound, which shocked everyone in the hall to respond. At the same time, he also shouted angrily: "Noisy, noisy, if you can quarrel with the money that the court urgently needs, I will let you quarrel enough!"

When he got angry like this, everyone was shocked immediately.To anger the father so far, he had no choice but to kneel down and plead guilty.

In fact, they did not dare to face the emperor's words.Let them quarrel for money?How to quarrel, I'm sure you won't get any money from the quarrel, so you can only be a coward.

Emperor Chongzhen seemed to be very angry, stood up, and said sharply: "Before, it was Dongchang who found out the big case of Yumajian and the corruption of some officials of Jinyiwei, and got a batch of money, which finally solved the problem of the front line. Lack of salary. At that time, did you share my worries?"

"Now that the front line is in urgent need of money, what do you do? Can you share my worries?" Emperor Chongzhen became more and more angry as he spoke, and couldn't help but shoot the imperial case again, while continuing to shout angrily, "Without money, how can the soldiers fight and fight?" Victory? Without money, the Tartars continue to wreak havoc. How many people and property do you want to plunder? Without money, you are doing the Tartars a favor. Will you be displaced, and your wife and children will be scattered and your family will be destroyed?"

"What about the money? Where did the money come from? Why don't you talk to me? Why don't you talk? Why don't you talk when you want to share my worries?"

"..."

Emperor Chongzhen was furious with thunder, all the courtiers lowered their heads, and no one responded.

They are not too worried, after all, there are so many courtiers, anyway, the law does not blame everyone, or if they really want to find a scapegoat, then they will definitely give priority to finding the Chief Assistant or the Minister of the Household Department!

However, they were wrong, so they heard Emperor Chongzhen shout angrily: "Now Li Guochen voluntarily donates 20 taels to solve the urgent need of the court. You think there is a problem with this, no! Well, I will satisfy you. I will do it myself." Find a way to solve this silver problem!"

Hearing this, almost all the courtiers couldn't help being a little surprised. What can the emperor do to solve the problem of money by himself?
If this is the case, you, the emperor, should solve it as soon as possible, why bother to make things difficult for us!

When they were thinking about it, they suddenly heard Emperor Chongzhen shout loudly: "Where is Cao Daban?"

"The servant is here!" Cao Huachun knew that it was time for him to appear when he heard it, so he hurriedly went out and echoed loudly.

"You did a good job in the Yumajian case!" Emperor Chongzhen looked at him and said loudly, "Not only did you find out the moth in the court, but you also solved the urgently needed money for me..."

Upon hearing this, most people in the hall immediately guessed how the emperor wanted to get money quickly.Immediately, each of them complained in their hearts.

Sure enough, I heard that Emperor Chongzhen was already telling Cao Huachun: "Cao Daban must continue his efforts and investigate ruthlessly for me. No matter who he is or what his background is, as long as problems are found, I will never tolerate it and punish the crime strictly. I don’t believe it, the only moths in my Ming Dynasty today are Wang Zhixin and the others!”

Obviously, the consequences of pushing the emperor into a hurry are also very serious.

Hearing this, Cao Huachun was about to receive the decree loudly, when he suddenly heard someone from the bottom playing loudly first: "Your Majesty, I have a book to play!"

When Emperor Chongzhen heard this, he turned his head to look and found that it was Liu Meicai, the censor. With a cold face, he still shouted angrily, "Speak up if you have something to say, and let the fart go!"

This was all swearing. Obviously, the emperor was really angry just now.

Liu Meicai thought about it, so she didn't dare to be negligent, and hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, I just thought about it for a while, and I think Li Guochen is honest and honest, and he will definitely not lie. In my opinion, the court should uphold justice for him."

Anyone who is not a fool can hear the subtext of his words, which means, isn't there 20 taels of silver here?Just enough to save the emergency, your majesty, please put out the fire, there is already money!
The reason why he was the first to jump out and say this is that in the officialdom of the Ming Dynasty, he has never been short of money, because there are Shanxi merchants who support him.In order to speak for Shanxi merchants, he even often distributed money to his colleagues, asking them to help speak together.

If Dongchang really wants to go crazy and bite people, maybe he, the censor, and the target is more conspicuous, will be the first to be stabbed.Once caught by Dongchang, everything will happen.He is scared!

In fact, not only he was afraid, but most of the officials in the palace were also afraid.After seeing Liu Mei, he started. All of a sudden, other people followed suit, and they all agreed with his proposal, completely forgetting that they were still condemning and opposing Li Guochen just now.

If Dongchang hadn't gone mad before, Wang Zhixin, Fang Fengnian and others hadn't been investigated and dealt with, maybe these officials wouldn't be particularly scared.But at this time, they already knew that Dongchang's knife was sharp again, and if they were not careful, they would hurt someone.Those who have ghosts in their hearts are even more afraid of being hurt.

Seeing this, Emperor Chongzhen couldn't help but sneered and said: "This is Li Guochen's one-sided statement, and there is no real evidence. I'm afraid it won't work?"

"..." Hearing this, the courtiers couldn't help being speechless, knowing that the emperor was still angry and was trying to manipulate them.

There is no way, the situation is stronger than people, no matter what, it is better than letting Dongchang bite people crazy, right?
Thinking of this, Liu Meicai responded to Emperor Chongzhen and said: "Your Majesty, I have heard about the fact that Marquis Wu Qing treated Li Guochen poorly. From this we can see that Marquis Wu Qing embezzled his elder brother's property, I am afraid it will not happen." False!"

When the other courtiers heard this, they all followed suit, saying that they had also heard that Li Guorui, Marquis of Wuqing, treated Li Guochen poorly, and even drove him out of Marquis Wuqing's mansion. I'm afraid there is something wrong with his conduct.

After hearing this, Emperor Chongzhen didn't seem to be so angry anymore, but he still asked a little angrily: "There is a difference between a concubine and a concubine. Isn't the family wealth management should belong to the son?"

There is no way, since the emperor mentioned it, then these have to refute the points he raised before.No matter what, the emperor had to calm down and accept the knife of Dongchang.

"Returning to Your Majesty, since you have the last words of the old Marquis Wu Qing, you should obey the wishes of the old Marquis Wu Qing!"

"really?"

"really!"

After hearing this, Emperor Chongzhen seemed to think about it for a moment, and said hesitantly: "Is it really appropriate?"

At this time, how could these elites in the officialdom of the Ming Dynasty not know that Emperor Chongzhen was angry with them and stopped them before, and was still controlling them.But in order not to mess around in Dongchang, they had no choice but to respond with nods: "Sure, sure, very good!"

Emperor Chongzhen looked at them and finally let out a bad breath in his heart, and immediately said to Li Guochen: "Okay, since all the ministers support you, then I will ask Dongchang and the Ministry of Households to send people to accompany you to deliver the inheritance. The court is waiting urgently." How about using this money?"

"The common people obey the decree!" Li Guochen, of course, had no problem and quickly replied.

"Okay!" Emperor Chongzhen immediately praised, "After this matter is over, I will not treat you badly!"

After speaking, he immediately called Cao Huachun and Li Daiwen by name, and asked them to immediately send someone to accompany Li Guochen to Wuqinghou's mansion.

Seeing that the dust settled and the emperor stopped mentioning the strict investigation of Dongchang, the civil servants in the hall breathed a sigh of relief.However, Yang Sichang was an exception, but he secretly complained in his heart.

He didn't believe that the emperor could really let Dongchang mess around at this moment?The law does not blame the public, and if all the officials unite to resist, unless the table is really set, the emperor can only compromise.And once the table is really lifted, the Daming will become even more chaotic, and if it doesn't work out, something big will happen.

It's a pity, these people are all timid and afraid of getting into trouble, they are afraid that Dongchang will find out about themselves first, and they will be unlucky first!Now that they saw Wuqinghou's bad luck, they were all right, so they couldn't wait to sell Wuqinghou one by one.

When Yang Sichang thought of this, he couldn't help but curse in his heart: Do you know that once the emperor touches Marquis Wu Qing, the next step will definitely be to use Xue Manzi's bad idea!Looking back, I still have to force you to pay one by one!
No, absolutely not, I must not be implicated by Xue Manzi!

Yang Sichang was thinking about it all the time, so that he hadn't recovered from the emperor's retreat.

But at this time, he also had an idea in his heart to prevent him from being dragged down by Xue Manzi.

The method is very simple, that is, to let the civil and military officials and the emperor's nobles know that he is not Xue Manzi's accomplice, but was forced.

In this way, once the civil and military officials, royal relatives and nobles rebound, their target will only be Xue Manzi, the troublemaker!Maybe I can get a blessing in disguise, if Xue Manzi is eliminated, I can go a step further and sit on the position of the chief assistant of Ming Dynasty without being opposed by the officials like Xue Manzi.

Thinking of it this way, he began to care about it.

But after thinking about it, he remembered that Emperor Chongzhen had warned him not to disclose Xue Manzi's proposal.Remembering that the emperor has become more powerful recently, he hesitated again.

However, Yang Sichang was indeed a man of quick thinking. After thinking about it for a moment, he still came up with an idea.

Besides, after Li Guochen got the will, he was extremely happy. 20 taels of silver, he couldn't get the land anyway, and now he donated it to the court, he didn't care.Thinking of seeing the face of his younger brother when the decree arrived at the Marquis of Wuqing's mansion, and remembering how he treated his elder brother harshly with his status as a legitimate son, he couldn't help but want to go back as soon as possible to get rid of the previous shame. return.

Thinking of this, he was a little impatient.Then he said to Cao Huachun and Li Daiwen, who were about to go back to the Yamen to arrange manpower, "Mr. Factory Master, Mr. Li, the emperor is in a hurry. How about the common people go first and meet at Wuqinghou's house?"

Cao Huachun and Li Daiwen could see his thoughts at a glance, but no one cared. You can go if you want, what does it have to do with them?
So, Li Guochen bid farewell to the two of them, walked like flying, and rushed back to Wuqinghou's mansion with his fastest speed.

"Dong dong dong..."

As soon as Li Guochen arrived at the door of his house, he looked at this place, and remembered the shameful past between him and his mother after his father was gone. He couldn't help reaching out and knocking on the door. Anger is vented on this door.

"Who, who is causing trouble at the gate of the Hou Mansion?" The porter heard the voice, shouted in fright, and opened the door hastily.

However, as soon as he opened the door and found out that it was Li Guochen, his attitude immediately became bad: "Hey, you still dare to come, be careful of the master getting angry, this time it's not just a matter of simply being kicked out!"

"Dog, let's see who dares to drive me away this time?" Li Guochen sternly shouted after hearing this, and then he was about to walk into the mansion.

When the porter saw him, he quickly stopped him and shouted loudly: "My lord has something to say, this Marquis Mansion has nothing to do with you from now on, if you dare to break into the Marquis Mansion privately, you are begging for punishment!"

"Bold, who dares to hit me?" Li Guochen looked angry, and the faces of these servants were still the same as before, "Go and tell my rebellious brother that I came to take half of the inheritance left by my father. , he has to take it if he takes it, and he has to take it if he doesn't take it!"

Seeing that he was so confident, the concierge and the other servants who rushed over after hearing the sound hesitated a little.They have also heard that they, the great master who was kicked out, have gone to seek refuge with the cabinet minister Xue Guoguan, and come back to say this this time, maybe they have something to rely on?

Just at this moment, Li Guorui, Marquis of Wuqing, was about to go out. When he came to the door, he also heard his words. Immediately, he shouted at the servants, walked up to Li Guochen with his hands behind his back, and said coldly, "It is said that family ugliness should not be publicized." , are you worthy of the ancestors of the Li family? Don’t think that with Xue Manzi as your reliance, I, Marquis Wu Qing, will be afraid! Hehe, I want to see today, how do you handle it? Just rely on you Born of a lowly maidservant, even Xue Manzi can't help you!"

When Li Guochen heard that he was mocking his mother's background again, and in front of so many servants, his face flushed with anger, he pointed to Li Guorui's nose, and said repeatedly: "Okay, okay, okay, I If I can't take away the 20 taels of silver left by my father, from now on, my surname will not be Li, and I will have nothing to do with the Marquis of Wuqing! "

"Hehe, this time, this Marquis will definitely not spare you lightly! From now on, you will not even have the surname Li!" Li Guorui sneered even more when he heard it, "People who have already been kicked out by this Marquis, what are you doing?" Just use your ability, Benhou puts his words here, if you can take away a copper coin, this Hou is born of a lowly servant!"
