Chivalry Cultivation System

Chapter 164

Zhu Kaizhi was also a little impatient, it was wrong for Liu Jin to intervene when he tried the case properly, and now he is scolding himself for being confused in public, which made Zhu Kaizhi angry, and said angrily: "Why is this officer so confused? "

Liu Jin said calmly: "Master Zhu, don't get angry, can you allow our family to ask Master Zhu a few questions? After everything is clear, if Master Zhu still thinks that the word 'confused' is used inappropriately in our family, we will be punished by you." .”

Zhu Kaizhi suppressed his anger and said: "If you have any questions, father-in-law, please feel free to speak up."

Liu Jin asked: "May I ask Master Zhu, how did you get the position of 'Governor of the Eight Directions'?"

Zhu Kaizhi said: "At the end of the previous year, the first emperor (that is, Emperor Xiaozong of the Ming Dynasty) was seriously ill, but he was still worried about the world. ) was young and difficult to control the overall situation, so he summoned the cabinet minister Xie Qian, Master Xie, and asked Mr. Xie Ge to find a way to eliminate all evil spirits in the universe, so that after the death of the first emperor, he could hand over to the Holy One a clean and bright country... Mr. Xie Ge bid farewell to the Holy One, and was ordered Going down to think of a strategy, that is, to be promoted to the title of 'Bafang Governor', so as to fulfill the last wish of the late emperor, and this official can take up this position, presumably Xie Ge must also ask for the late emperor's permission!"

Liu Jin nodded and said: "Master Zhu's words are true. In this way, Master Zhu's position of 'Governor of Eight Directions' was completely admonished by Lord Xie and bestowed by the former emperor? So after the death of the former emperor, the current emperor Succession, if I remember correctly, the first emperor still gave Master Zhu to take charge of the Shuntian Mansion, and did not mention the position of 'Governor of Eight Directions'. What I am wondering is that it has been more than a month since the emperor ascended the throne. Why is Master Zhu still not taking office? Is it possible that Master Zhu is relying on his respect for his wife as the holy nurse, so that he is so proud of being favored, but he only has the late emperor in his heart, and does not take the emperor's words to heart?"

It turns out that Mrs. Zhu's wife, Feng Caiyi, was once the holy nurse.

Hearing these words, Zhu Kaizhi felt cold sweat, soaked his clothes in an instant, and hurriedly said: "Eunuch Liu is serious, my Zhu family was considered distant relatives by the late emperor, and I have been thinking of repaying him. The same is true for the Holy One, how dare you neglect the slightest?"

Liu Jin said: "You, governor of all directions, are outdated. Now you are equal to Wen Guizhang and have no affiliation. Therefore, you must not retry today's case. What's more, your big backer Xie Qian passed away three days ago. Now, you probably offended a lot of royal relatives and relatives outside this year, right? If you try to force yourself to stand out, I'm afraid these enemies will join forces to play against you?"

Zhu Kaizhi was shocked: "What? Mr. Xie Ge resigned and returned home? What's going on?"

Liu Jin's expression was gloomy, as if lost, and said: "Master Xie is too hot-tempered. He and the old slave have opinions. Seeing that the old slave is favored by the Holy One, he joined forces with Liu Jian and other late emperor's survivors to write a letter to the Holy One, requesting to kill our family and eliminate the country's harm... Fortunately, Long live the wise, did not agree to their entreaties, otherwise how could our family have the life to remind you? In this way, Mr. Xie and Liu Jian retired. Sigh! Our family is a servant serving the emperor, and Mr. Zhu is also a relative of the emperor. Naturally, we all hope that the emperor can live a stable and happy life! If something happens to Mr. Zhu, Mrs. Zhu will be sad, and the emperor will not bear it. Therefore, helping Mr. Zhu is actually helping the emperor!"

Xiao Xiaomo secretly said: "This Liu Jin is really not simple, eloquent and eloquent. He spent so many words and tongues, but it was just to please Emperor Zhengde's nanny! It made him speak so grandly."

History books record Xie Qian:

After the death of Emperor Xiaozong of the Ming Dynasty, his son Wuzong came to the throne. Later, Xie Qian was promoted to be the young Fu and Prince Taibao.The eunuch Liu Jin took advantage of the emperor's young age, monopolized the power, and rejected Zhongliang.Xie Qian believed that it was a matter of the rise and fall of the country, and was determined to "don't care about the crisis, and go against the peak and go straight to the crime". He stated his views to the emperor many times, but they were all rejected.Until the suggestion to kill Liu Jin was not adopted, Xie Qian resigned and went home with Liu Jian.

Liu Jin was full of resentment towards Xie Qian, and a man named Jiao Fang squeezed into the cabinet because he took refuge in Liu Jin, and was also deeply dissatisfied with Xie Qian.

In February of the fourth year of Zhengde (AD 1509), Liu Jin and Jiao Fang used the excuse that people with both political integrity and ability were recommended by Zhejiang, such as Zhou Li, Xu Ziyuan, and Xu Long from Yuyao, and Xu Wenyan from Shangyu were all fellow villagers of Xie Qian. The edict was written by Liu Jian again, nonsense that there are so many hermits in Yuyao, and they must be colluding and pulling each other for personal gain.

In an attempt to use this as a crime against Xie Qian and Liu Jian.They falsely passed on the emperor's order and put Zhou Li and others in prison for interrogation.Liu Jin also attempted to arrest Liu Jian and Xie Qian, and confiscated their properties. Fortunately, Li Dongyang tried his best to free them.As a result, the imperial court dispatched Zhou Li and others to serve in the frontier, and ordered: From then on, Yuyao people could not be selected as Beijing officials, but could only be assigned as county magistrates.

That's the point. Although Liu Jin's words are very pleasant, but from another perspective, it is also a courtesy before a soldier. If Zhu Kaizhi insists on forcing himself to stand out, the result is very likely to be detained by Liu Jin.

At this moment, Liu Jin was already in power alone, and Emperor Wuzong of the Ming Dynasty went out for "playing" again. If Liu Jin was really annoyed, he could punish Zhu Kaizhi for not obeying the emperor's order.

So Zhu Kaizhi breathed a sigh of relief, and said: "Okay, Zhu can't take care of today's matter! However, Mr. Wei, folks in Luoyang City, please rest assured that if someone ends today's case indiscriminately, the government will I will definitely go to the table and ask Dali Temple to overturn the case."

All the people present kowtowed to Zhu Kaizhi for his great kindness.

Zhu Kaizhi kindly asked Xiao Xiaomo about his future plans, and Xiao Xiaomo didn't hide it from him, saying that he would bring Huang Jinmei and his adoptive mother Wei Po to accompany An Xiaohui's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law to move to Chang'an Huayin Town.

Zhu Kaizhi went on to say that he would definitely visit them in Huayin Town, Chang'an in the future, and he also asked that when the two were overjoyed, they must send someone to inform him in advance.After that, the people who brought him walked away, ignoring Liu Jin and others.

"Master Zhu, wait for me. Mr. Ran is celebrating his birthday. It's a good time, so he should go and bless him! Hurry, catch up with Master Zhu!"

As Liu Jin was talking, she had already got into the sedan chair, shouting from left and right, and followed Zhu Kaizhi closely.

As soon as Liu Jin left, the Jin Yiwei he brought along followed, leaving only Wen Guizhang and others on the execution platform.

Wen Guizhang regained his freedom, and immediately disregarded everyone's opposition, forcibly released Sun Hu and beheaded Yu Ji. As a show, he had to announce the ban on the "underground palace" of Sun's residence. The fox built another mansion and lived there.

Zhang Zhifu refused to accept the verdict, Wen Guizhang had no fear, and asked him to sue the imperial court and so on.

So many injustices are unfolding in front of the people of Luoyang, which shows that lawlessness is extreme.
