Daming One Piece

Chapter 174 Eunuchs Don't Need Knives to Kill People (Second Update, Please Subscribe)
I am not a eunuch!
In fact, except for those who sold themselves to Wei Zhongxian, including Gu Bingqian, they are not eunuchs in the true sense. They may have stood opposite the Donglin Party in the past, Chu Party, Qi Party and other scholar-bureaucrat groups. , to attack the Donglin Party.

However, in the Qing discussion, they were referred to as "eunuchs". The so-called "eunuchs" themselves use the word "eunuch" to attack political opponents, in order to tell the world that this person has no sense of shame. Willing to act as the eunuch's running dog.

After all, since ancient times, eunuchs have not had a good reputation.

Of course, Ding Shaoshi is very clear about this.

"Of course Prime Minister Gu is not an eunuch, and now he is making false claims, but he just wants to use Wei Eun's hands to sort out the government!"

"Am I the only one who borrows money in this world?"

Gu Bingqian shook his head and said.

"Right now, Wei Xie wants to take advantage of the "Wang Gongchang Rebellion Case" to wipe out Donglin and the local Qingyi. Although the world's scholars must be deeply harmed, what is certain is that after this incident, the world is bound to be at peace, and the scholars and people When the sound is cold, the court will manage the government much more smoothly, otherwise, the situation cannot be changed..."

What does Daming look like without party struggle?
Ding Shaoshi was very curious, but more of an expectation. The reason why he bullied him was because he had witnessed the devastating blow to the Ming Dynasty government by party struggles for decades as an official.

"For decades, there have been constant factional disputes in the imperial court. Even if the government has no intention of party disputes, they have to get involved in it, and how much energy do they have to do things? And all the people in the court are all partisans and dissidents. So that those who do things can’t do things, and there is no party struggle, at least...you can always do things for a few years, and then..."

Gu Bingqian sighed.

"I can't become the only prime minister, but I can fight for another 50 years of peace for the world..."

Fight for 50 years of peace!

What about 50 years from now?
Gu Bingqian didn't say, he can't ask about what will happen 50 years later.

"What about Wei Wei?"

Ding Shaoshi asked.

"Wei Wei?"

Gu Bingqian sneered.

"After the "reverse case", the hatred of the people of the world towards Wei Yan will definitely be further deepened. Your Majesty will still have more trust in Wei Yi, and still use him as a knife. Your Majesty needs such a person. His Majesty will naturally comply with public opinion."

There is no suspense in this, so what if Wei Xie is so powerful?It's just an imperial decree, a few middle officials, and a few Jinyiwei.Even Wei Xie can only be caught without a fight.

It's just that no one knows when His Majesty will comply with public opinion, but it must be when Wei Zhongxian is useless,
The birds are gone and the bow is hidden.

Ding Shaoshi had such a sentence in his heart, of course, in the eyes of the world, Wei Zhongxian is definitely not a "good bow", he is not even a lackey, whose lackey?Emperor's?Impossible, the emperor is not that smart.

At least in the eyes of outsiders, the emperor is not very smart.

At that time, no one will blame the emperor, they will only praise the emperor for his wisdom. Of course, those internal officials will not blame the emperor, they will only blame everything on Wei Zhongxian for being too domineering.

And in this matter, who has benefited the most?

Only the emperor left.

Thinking of this, Ding Shaoshi felt a cold sweat break out on his back. When a person with absolute power plays tricks and tricks with others, it is the most fatal thing. Even until he dies, he doesn't know how to die.

"That, that..."

Ding Shaoshi said in a low voice.

"Your Majesty is really going to use that knife to straighten out the Qing government this time, but the knife can kill people. Although those people have different political views from you and me, it's a pity to die like this, and it's against the law. The case is bound to affect the family, if Gu Xiang doesn't stop it, I'm afraid... how many people will be affected!"

In fact, Ding Shaoshi came here this time to persuade Gu Bingqian to come forward and narrow the scope of the disaster as much as possible. After all, too many people have been involved now, and if it continues to expand, I am afraid that scholars all over the world will be involved.

"Don't worry, Your Majesty knows what to do. As for killing people... don't worry about it for the time being. Do you still remember the brochure written by Feng Quan earlier?"

Gu Bingqian asked.

"Feng Quan?"

Ding Shaoshi said in surprise.

"The booklet?"

"It's the book that suggested that the imperial court use refugees to farm in Beigang."

"Tuntian!"

Thinking that Feng Quan was Wei Zhongxian's real running dog, the memorial seemed to be for resettling the refugees, but now that he contacted him, it was clear that there was another purpose behind it, which must be to exile the scholars and their families involved in the case.

Ding Shaoshi frowned and said.

"Could it be that he wants to exile them all to Beigang?"

"I'm afraid it's not just Beigang!"

Gu Bingqian said casually.

"You didn't read, in the decree of the imperial court, the Beigang Propaganda Envoy also has the full authority to handle the Western farms."

"This? Western farming?"

Ding Shaoshi hasn't realized it yet, what's the big deal? He's no stranger to this "Western farming incident", after all, it was mentioned in the cabinet discussion.

This seems to be nothing unusual, Shi Yiwen's memorial at that time did not say that there were more than ten commercial stations in Beigang beyond Beigang to Xiyang, and those commercial stations were similar to those in Macau, either leased or bought It is done in a leisurely place by the sea, so I hope that the imperial court will grant power to take charge of the local farming.

"It's no big deal, let him preside over the power of those commercial stations, this person, who doesn't want to give himself more power, farming, it's just a name..."

Suddenly, Ding Shaoshi was dumbfounded and said in surprise.

"This, this, this, they want to send those people to the Western Ocean, which is tens of thousands of miles away!"

Now, he finally understood, it turned out that he had planned it early in the morning.

kill?
They don't kill them, but they exile them to the Western Ocean tens of thousands of miles away. Let alone returning, even if they go, they will be close to death!

"That's right!"

Gu Bingqian said.

"So, it doesn't matter whether you kill or not. Sometimes, you don't have to use a knife to kill!"

Why use a knife to kill?
Civil officials don't use knives to kill, they use pens, and Wei Zhongxian, he is a eunuch, but there are many civil officials around him, and they don't know how to use knives.

"Then His Majesty..."

Ding Shaoshi, who originally wanted to say that His Majesty would not agree, suddenly stopped talking. Now he has understood what His Majesty meant.

As far as His Majesty is concerned, why did he condone Wei Zhongxian's expansion? Isn't it just to take the opportunity to sort out the Ming Dynasty's situation?From the court to the place, after this knife is cut down, can the Ming Dynasty really stabilize?
Ding Shaoshi has no answer in his heart, but what is certain is that many people will leave their homes and be exiled to foreign lands tens of thousands of miles away...
