I'm really not the carpenter emperor

Outside the Kunning Palace, the female official Xu came to the door with mung bean soup. Hearing the laughing and joking sounds from inside gradually quieted down, she also stood still.

After a while, as if he heard something, his face turned slightly red.

After a while, she and the other female officers looked at each other awkwardly for a while, and left with the soup in their hands, sighing:

"In this deep palace, my old sister and I can't hear this kind of sound."

A female official laughed and scolded her for being unrestrained, and then she sighed as well. Seeing this, Mrs. Xu was a little strange, so she asked:

"What's there to sigh about? If you have something to say, how can you learn from those old scholars in the outer court?"

The female officer patted her and said with a smirk:

"I, I sigh for those beautiful girls who don't get the rain and dew evenly!"

"Think about it, the empresses in the middle palace can't be lucky every night, let alone those Yu concubines, pure concubines and beautiful women."

Mrs. Xu nodded, but replied:

"Be good as your female officer, and when she is old, she will ask your mother for grace to let her out of the palace and find a good man to marry. That would be good."

"You have time to worry about other people here, why don't you go back and warm up this mung bean soup with me."

"Okay, let's go."

The two female officials led the maids talking and laughing, walking farther and farther, bypassing the corridors and cornices, and sneaking into the dark, humid Forbidden City.

……

The next day, Zhu Youxiao saw Guangning's memorial to Sun Chengzong.

This memorandum is not a military newspaper, but Sun Chengzong's refutation of Wei Guangwei's recent incident, expressing his position clearly and disregarding his relationship with it.

In the memorial, Sun Chengzong expressed his deep hatred for Wei Guangwei's move, and made his words very clear.

"The purpose of praising the meritorious service of Liaodong is to win over the relationship and clear the door. It is vulgar and hateful.

I have lived in Liao Dynasty for half a year, and the merits and demerits can be judged by His Majesty. How can it be judged by others in a few words? "

Zhu Youxiao put Wei Guangwei's previous memorials together with Sun Chengzong's memorials this time, and saw a good show here.

This Wei Guangwei Shangshu praised Sun Chengzong's contribution to guarding Guangning for half a year, and suggested that the imperial court should add an official title as a sign of encouragement.

The real meaning is to take the initiative to speak well for Sun Chengzong, hoping that Sun Chengzong will be grateful for this, reciprocate, and also say a few words for him in this turmoil, to dissuade Zhao Nanxing and Wei Dazhong and other Donglin party members.

But he didn't expect that he was born as an imperial teacher and had a reputation long ago. What he cared about was the actual meritorious service, and he didn't care about his flattery at all.

However, what Sun Chengzong did was a little unreasonable, and he favored Donglin too much. Not only did he not appreciate it, he also didn't save any face for Wei Guangwei.

Thinking of this, Zhu Youxiao couldn't stop sneering, Wei Guangwei's face really made the Donglin Party beat him loudly.

You are interested, but people are ruthless!

When the news came back, Wei Guangwei was so ashamed that he couldn't bear it, and he fully knew the heartlessness of the Donglin party members. At this moment, if he wanted to turn around, there was only one way.

As soon as Sun Chengzong's memorandum was published, Wei Guangwei's road to reconciliation with the Donglin Party was completely blocked, and he was pushed to the Eunuch Party.

Wei Guangwei gave up the idea of ​​reconciling with the Donglin party members, and no longer cared about his reputation, he went to find Wei Zhongxian in full view, intending to worship under the name of the eunuch party.

Wei Zhongxian, who had been waiting in the mansion for a long time, heard that this guy really came, so he was naturally happy to receive another big help.

There is nothing to say, the door of the eunuch party is always open to civil servants who are frustrated in the court, even if you used to be a great sage of the Donglin party, we will accept you.

Now that Wei Guangwei has made up his mind, he has no intention of turning back. He prostrates himself on the ground, fills a cup of Biluochun, and respectfully says:

"Zong nephew has met the factory minister!"

Looking at the servile former enemy, Wei Zhongxian felt refreshed, but he was not in a hurry to take the teacup.

He squinted and smiled, tapping his fingers lightly on the table.

Wei Guangwei realized something, took a few steps forward, gritted his teeth and clarified the words.

"From now on, nephew Zong and uncle Wei will be a family. The family does not speak two different languages. Nephew Zong must obey the instructions and advice of the elders, pointing east to east, pointing west to west!"

"This is my good nephew!"

Wei Zhongxian laughed loudly, took the teacup, took a sip, and put it down.

The Donglin party members managed to add such a new nephew to the governor. Wei Zhongxian was very happy in his heart, and he was more concerned about Wei Guangwei's affairs.

……

No matter how much trouble there is in the court, the final decision-making power is still in the hands of the emperor alone.

After Wei Guangwei came to identify him as his uncle, Wei Zhongxian also began to contribute to his affairs, and signaled the cabinet minister Gu Bingqian to impeach Wei Dazhong, a member of the Donglin party.

The name of the impeachment is that Wei Dazhong deliberately turned black and white, and his words were too violent. Wei Guangwei did not commit any major crimes, so he insisted on putting people to death.

Zhu Youxiao glanced at Wei Zhongxian with blank eyes, his heart was like a mirror, and he was about to read this memorial when he suddenly stretched his waist and said:

"I'm a little tired, the factory official should find someone to read to me."

Wei Zhongxian was overjoyed when he heard this, it was really God helping me.

Of the two ministers in Xinuange, Wang Zaijin was away on business, and there was only one Gu Bingqian left, so he had to go up against the wind.

Reading his own memorials by himself, Gu Bingqian always felt that something was wrong.

As for the difference between the recitation and the memorial, Zhu Youxiao didn't care about it at all, because he didn't plan to read the memorial, he only cared about what came out of his mind.

When reading the memorial, Gu Bingqian and Wei Zhongxian naturally played tricks and deliberately read it in a mess.

While he was reading, Wei Zhongxian also misinterpreted the meaning, creating an atmosphere that Wei Dazhong was just looking for trouble.

Sure enough, Zhu Youxiao was furious after hearing this, and scolded:

"This Wei Dazhong's words are too aggressive, too inappropriate, and he is obviously suspected of forming a party for personal gain!"

Wei Zhongxian echoed and fanned the flames:

"Didn't the Lord issue a special edict last time, asking them not to make trouble anymore, but this Wei Dazhong still doesn't repent, he, he is deliberately resisting the edict and not obeying it!"

"Didn't Wei Dazhong just copy the "Law of the Great Ming Dynasty"? If you want Wei Guangwei to suffer from whipping, you should let him try it first!"

Hearing this, Zhu Youxiao glanced at Wei Zhongxian quietly, seeing that the latter was in a trance and a little timid, so he suddenly laughed.

After a while, as if nothing happened, he said:

"That's right, let's do what the factory minister wants."

Chapter 1 Seventy I Just Ask

Recently, the imperial court has all discussed it.

The guy Wei Zhongxian played tricks when he was reading the memorial, and misinterpreted it with the cabinet minister Gu Bingqian. The emperor was so confused, he really thought that Wei Dazhong had made a mistake first.

An edict was issued just that day, saying that Wei Dazhong's words in the impeachment memorial were too aggressive, and he was suspected of "forming a party for personal gain", and he was to be dragged to the court outside Chengtianmen with fifty sticks as a punishment.

The Donglin Party was panicked, the rest of the Party laughed at each other, Wei Guangwei also sighed to himself, the eunuch's method is really powerful.

He couldn't turn over with all his strength, Wei Zhongxian ordered and arranged, and turned over directly.

Otherwise, the Donglin Party would never be able to defeat the Wei Party, they would be shameless at all, and coupled with the emperor's intentional or unintentional favoritism, this would be invincible!

As the chief assistant of the cabinet of the Donglin Party members, the threshold of Han Yu's house was directly smashed.

Things have developed to the point where he is now, and he has to stand up and express his position with a word.

Otherwise, Wei Guangwei, whose reputation is already extremely bad, could be a lesson from the past.

Han Yu led the cabinet minister Liu Yixiu and other ministers to jointly sign the Shu, gave up the name of impeachment against Wei Guangwei, and only asked Wei Dazhong to be sentenced leniently and exempted from the court.

Why did Wei Zhongxian push Zhu Youxiao to spank Wei Dazhong's ass?

Because the court staff beat him to a bloody mess, it was just a slap in the face, what really killed him was the slap in the face.

Even Wei Guangwei paid great attention to his reputation before joining the eunuchs, let alone Wei Dazhong, a veteran and important minister of Donglin.

Hitting him once with a stick made him feel worse than cutting off his head!

After Zhu Youxiao had read the memorandum, and knew that Wei Zhongxian had intervened in this matter, the Donglin Party was discouraged. He only wanted to keep Wei Dazhong's reputation, and he didn't want to pursue Wei Guangwei any more.

Wei Zhongxian, the owner of Dongchang Changchang who was born in the market, made the Donglin party members have no way to go to heaven and nowhere to go to earth as soon as he made a move.

In order to preserve Wei Dazhong, directly disregarding the previous morality and righteousness, is this what you Donglin Party members call the way of a gentleman?

This is not the first time Zhu Youxiao has seen the ugly faces of this group of people, and he is not surprised to see this memorial.

On the bright side, Zhu Youxiao exempted Wei Dazhong's court staff for the sake of the chief assistant of the cabinet, Han Yu, but within a few days, he issued another order:

"Important ministers respect the imperial court. It is a matter of state system. The decree has been made clear repeatedly. Why use excuses to insult, and even quote the law. From now on, all officials, big and small, will be punished according to the law if they mistakenly participate in the court and sacrifice.

If things go on like this, where is the state system?

Wei Dazhong likes to be reckless, as an important minister of the court, he doesn't know the general principles, and he is too arrogant to accept my favor.This matter should have been dealt with seriously, read Xiyan Shen, and I will be fined for one year with a light salary. "

This is the end of Wei Guangwei's participation.

Once this decree was published, it caused huge waves in the court, but the people were still peaceful.At the turn of spring and summer, it is the time of farming, and the common people only care about their own one-third of an acre of land.

In the eyes of the Donglin party members, Wei Guangwei was clearly at fault, but he was favored repeatedly.Wei Dazhong was fined and paid just because of his advice, and almost suffered from the court stick.

The emperor gave such a random sentence, it was unclear what was right and wrong, and he was blinded by the eunuchs, who could not distinguish between good and bad. The Donglin party members turned into fighters, and they were all filled with righteous indignation.

But considering the power of the Wei party, they all held back and wanted to get past the cusp of the storm first.

In fact, what Huang Zunsu said earlier to persuade Wei Dazhong was true.

Wei Guangwei was famous for a long time at that time, and it is true that he came from a scholarly family, and it is true that his personality is small and small.

Now that he has become the so-called "castrate dog" in the words of the Donglin Qunxians this time, his reputation is no longer a drag on him, so he will resolutely carry it out to the end and tear his face off with his former enemies.

What's more, Wei Guangwei could clearly see the hot and cold world in the past, but now with Wei Zhongxian's support, he can't just swallow this breath.

Just when he was looking for an opportunity to retaliate, another major event happened in the court.

"My lord, there is a vacancy for the position of Governor of Ningxia. As usual, it must be elected by the court. There is someone for slaves..." On this day, Wei Zhongxian came to Xinuan Pavilion and said with a smile.

"Why is there a shortage of governors in Ningxia?" Zhu Youjiao was going to hunt a deer in Nanhaizi, just put on a pair of gloves, turned around when he heard this, and asked deliberately:

"You old bastard, did you do something bad behind my back?"

"My lord, this servant has been wronged!"

With a bitter face, Wei Zhongxian said:

"The former governor of Ningxia didn't do anything practical in his tenure, and was involved in the three major cases. This is why the servants punished him and paid all the salary owed by Ningxia town over the years."

"The governor patrols the place, and the town's soldiers and civilians have a lot of power. The servant thinks, such an important position, it is better to use someone from the master..."

Looking at Wei Zhongxian who was full of anxiety, Zhu Youxiao laughed loudly, walked to the wall, picked up the sword, and said:

"I ask casually, the factory officials don't need to be nervous."

"Oh, the emperor said it earlier, it seems to scare the old slave." With a smile, Wei Zhongxian respected a memorial.

Zhu Youxiao received it in his hand, glanced at the signature, and said:

"Henan chief envoy Guo Shangyou? How about this man?"

"The person recommended by the servant to the Lord is naturally two-handed." Speaking of this person, Wei Zhongxian said confidently.

Zhu Youxiao threw the memorial on the imperial case and said, "Okay, I know, come back tonight and watch it together."

Seeing that the emperor was fully dressed in military uniform, Wei Zhongxian knew that he didn't want to look at it now, so he quickly stepped aside and said loudly:

"The slaves send the emperor off respectfully!"

……

In the evening of the same day, Zhu Youxiao, who had been hunting for half a day, threw down his imperial musket and ordered the deer to be cooked properly. He came to the imperial case again, snorted a few times, and opened Xu Xianchun's secret performance first.

This secret memorial listed in detail all the big and small things about the Fengyang governor recommended by Wei Zhongxian since he became an official.

Guo Shangyou, courtesy name Shanru and nickname Zhanyue, was born in Weixian County, Shandong Province, and was a Jinshi in the 29th year of Wanli.

During the Wanli Dynasty, he successively served as the magistrate of the county, the doctor of the Ministry of Industry and Civil Affairs, the deputy envoy of Shanxi, the envoy of the inspector, and the envoy of Henan Youbuzheng, with considerable political achievements.

In the first year of Tianqi, he was promoted to governor of Baoding and governor of water transportation. Later, due to outstanding political achievements, he was appointed governor of Fengyang at the beginning of the second year of Tianqi, not long after he took office.

According to Beizhen Fusi's secret investigation, this person's incorruptibility is not just talk, he is a real official in the local area, he judges cases upright and selfless, and is deeply loved by the people.

But even such a capable and honest official was excluded because he was from the Lu Party and not Donglin.

Yuan Chonghuan was recommended that time because he built a ancestral hall for Wei Zhongxian in Liaodong and gave Qingwan, and the same is true for Guo Shangyou now.
