I'm really not the carpenter emperor

At this time, everyone is in danger, except for some hard-core eunuchs, no one will let Wei Zhongxian into their house.

Gu Bingqian welcomed him in and asked anxiously: "Eunuch Wei, the emperor has changed his mind and wants to help the Donglin Party?"

Wei Zhongxian didn't quite understand, and pondered: "I'm afraid the emperor's meaning is not that simple..."

Gu Bingqian poured tea for him, "Now the Donglin party members in the Manchu Dynasty are all blowing up their pots, and they are having fun impeaching you. How will the emperor deal with it?"

"Speaking of this, our family doesn't know what kind of medicine is sold in the gourd of the emperor. Although I am not allowed to approve the book, but the memorials are all kept in the middle. Our family is the second monk who can't figure it out!"

Speaking of this, Wei Zhongxian shook his head and sighed: "The holy meaning is as deep as the sea!"

Gu Bingqian nodded, sat there thinking for a while, and suddenly asked: "What does Eunuch Wei want to do, impeach Yang Lian?"

But Wei Zhongxian slammed the teacup hard, shook his head and said: "At this time, impeachment of Yang Lian is useless, so why don't we just do one thing and two birds with one stone!"

"How can you kill two birds with one stone, please explain it to Eunuch Wei!" Gu Bingqian leaned over.

……

Early the next morning, in the West Nuan Pavilion of Qianqing Palace.

Zhu Youxiao looked at the title book in front of him, and a curve appeared at the corner of his mouth.

This time Wei Zhongxian didn't look for Yang Lian alone, but came to kill two birds with one stone. While counterattacking Yang Lian, he also dragged Wang An, who had been resting at home, into the water.

He first asked Gu Bingqian, the servant of the Ministry of Rites, to tell him that Wang An, the eunuch in charge of the supervisor of rites, was tyrannical, and warned himself to hold on to the "power of great fortune" and "don't listen to the fall of the emperor Zhongjuan".

On the other hand, Wei Zhongxian asked Yushi Cui Chengxiu to tell Yang Lian that he had colluded with Wang An, saying that Fang Congzhe, the former chief assistant, was forced by the two of them to become an official.

The real purpose of Yang Lian's "Respecting the History of the War" is actually to increase his prestige so that he can become the chief assistant of the cabinet.

After Zhu Youxiao read the two memorials, it became clear at once that this was a very simple strategy.

After that, Zhu Youxiao still kept the memorials presented by the officials of the "eunuch party" in China.

Faced with the impeachment of Gu Bingqian, Cui Chengxiu and others, Yang Lian naturally looked like he had suffered a great injustice, and he was very angry.

It is true that I colluded with Wang An, but is this something you, an eunuch, are qualified to talk about?

In the next few days, the number of books in Qianqing Palace increased several times, and most of them were "eunuchs" and Donglin officials impeaching each other and criticizing each other.

But all the memorials are like disappearing into the ocean, and there is no sound once they enter the warm pavilion.

It was not until Yang Lian's memorial three days later that the chaos in the court situation in recent days was calmed down.

Zhu Youxiao has been waiting for Yang Lian's reaction.

What Yang Lian expressed in the memorial was that at this moment, Fang Congzhe had already retired. Although it is true that he had a close personal relationship with Wang An, he had repeatedly impeached Fang Congzhe.

But it is absolutely impossible to say that he is speculating and gaining money by attacking Fang Congzhe to promote himself in order to achieve the goal of becoming the chief assistant of the cabinet.

Because at that time, the chief minister of the cabinet was appointed as Ye Xianggao by the seriously ill Emperor Taichang. At that time, he was also a member of the military department.

Of course, Zhu Youxiao didn't care how reasonable what he said in the memorial.

The key is not what Yang Lian said in the memorial, but that he admitted the two points of impeachment by Gu Bingqian and Cui Chengxiu.

First, colluding with Wang An.

Second, Fang Congzhe, the former chief assistant, was impeached many times.

The impeachment is right, but you admit it without refuting it. There is a lot to do here.

"I am not sick, so I dare not ask for it. The emperor has not sinned against my minister, but I can't ask for it. There is only a humble heart, begging for the mighty grace, and let the minister be a person who retreats bravely."

Seeing the end, Zhu Youxiao was a little surprised, this Yang Lian was too impatient, and after refuting, he actually resigned directly!

Just after reading it, a servant came and bowed at his feet.

"Your Majesty, Mr. Yang has been packing his luggage since he went to the school. Now he has left the house and said he wants to go back to his hometown in Huguang to do farming."

This Yang Lian's official position is not high, but his prestige among scholars is not low. If he doesn't keep him, there will be criticisms. Zhu Youxiao smiled to himself and was shocked:

"How should this be?"

Soon, the news that Zhu Youxiao was not sure whether to let Yang Lian or keep Yang Lian reached the ears of Wei Zhongxian who was on duty as the supervisor of ceremonies.

On the first day of junior high school, Wei Zhongxian was overjoyed, smiling all over his face, and jumped three feet high happily.

For this little trick of his own, Wei Zhongxian didn't have much hope at first, he just wanted to pick things up first, as long as he could hit the arrogance of the Donglin Party members.

Even if it's just a waste of them for a while, I feel happy in my heart!

Unexpectedly, Yang Lian lost his head and directly "resisted the Zhang begging". With such an unexpected effect, how could Wei Zhongxian not be ecstatic?

But he changed his mind and thought again, Yang Lian didn't really go home after all, this old guy was waiting outside the city, waiting for the emperor's order, what if the emperor really wanted to stay?

Thinking of this, Wei Zhongxian decided to continue to be a villain who "deceived the saints", and went to the Nuan Pavilion to fool around. It is best to find a way to get the emperor to approve his resignation!

That day when he went to the Palace of Compassion to report the great victory of Mao Wenlong, the capital of Guangning, Wei Zhongxian heard Concubine Liu say that the emperor likes to eat "braised three things".

Since you want to fool the emperor, you have to make sufficient preparations.

Before going to the Nuan Pavilion, Wei Zhongxian went to Guanglu Temple first, and asked the cook to cook a few more dishes for dinner, and then let him go in one by one.

……

That night, when it was time for Zhu Youxiao to have dinner, Wei Zhongxian personally brought up a delicious and hot braised three things.

"It's delicious, it's delicious." In fact, Zhu Youxiao really likes to eat this dish, and he started to eat it as soon as he received it.

"This dish was supervised by my maidservant who went to Guanglu Temple in person today. The ingredients were also carefully selected by my maidservant. If the emperor thinks it tastes good, he can eat more. If he wants to eat such delicious food in the future, he will eat less!"

Hearing that there was something in Wei Zhongxian's words, Zhu Youxiao sneered from the bottom of his heart, and naturally understood that he was setting himself up, but today he had to pretend to be "stupid".

"How do you say that?"

Wei Zhongxian sighed and said: "Didn't those gentlemen in the court always say that the slaves are here to get in the way? Especially that Yang Lian, who always dislikes the slaves and wants to drive me away."

Zhu Youxiao laughed loudly when he heard the words, and stuffed a pig's tendon in his mouth and chewed it.

"Hey, are you talking about that bastard? He's still driving you away, and he's about to leave by himself. He's going to ask me to let him go back to his hometown."

"I just know." Wei Zhongxian looked surprised, and boldly said: "Since he wants to leave on his own initiative, the emperor will allow him to go."

Chapter 36 Dong Lin Zai Gong

How could Zhu Youxiao not know his thoughts?

"Yang Lian is one of the four life-saving ministers left to me by the late emperor. He has worked hard and worked hard for my ascension to the throne. How can we let him go back directly?"

Seeing Zhu Youxiao's hesitant look, Wei Zhongxian had something in his heart, so he quickly increased his firepower.

"Ask the servant to say, Your Majesty, let him go."

"Your Majesty, think about it. Yang Lian, an official as small as a sesame seed mung bean, was appointed by the late Emperor as a Minister of Gu Ming. He will naturally repay the emperor's favor with all his might."

"Actually, the slaves also feel that Mr. Yang has suffered a lot in the past few months. Now he doesn't want to be promoted, but instead proposes to go home to work in the farm. His spirit is commendable. He is really a good man. This is the real Qingliu!"

"If the emperor refuses to allow it, won't it damage Master Yang's reputation? The slaves also feel that there are two great benefits if he is allowed."

Zhu Youxiao asked while eating: "Then tell me quickly, what's the benefit?"

The more Wei Zhongxian talked, the more he felt that this wave should be stable. He sorted out the thoughts in his mind and said:

"Firstly, let him go home to have a good rest and concentrate on studying knowledge; secondly, let him enjoy the taste of returning home and honoring his ancestors."

"If your Majesty agrees, Lord Yang doesn't know how to thank you!"

After hearing all this nonsense to coax children, Zhu Youxiao was impatient for a long time, but he still acted patiently.

Who told me to be the wise king through the ages, and you, Old Wei, are the one who took the blame!

"Is this really the case?"

Wei Zhongxian hurriedly said: "It's more real than real gold and silver!"

"Then, shall I let him go?"

"Let him go!"

Zhu Youxiao nodded and said, "Okay then, go back and draw up the decree, please treat me generously!"

Wei Zhongxian didn't expect that he could get away with this f*ck, he didn't care whether he was treated favorably or not, he hurriedly agreed, and turned around to leave.

Suddenly, after eating, Zhu Youxiao said leisurely behind him: "I don't think it's safe to sleep in this inner palace. Zhongxian, please help me to see if there is anything dirty."

dirty stuff?

It's a dirty person!

Wei Zhongxian was shocked all over, and in a blink of an eye he understood that Emperor Tianqi was telling him to clean up the harem, so he quickly turned around and smiled flatteringly:

"The slaves obey the orders!"

……

That night, Yang Lian, who was at Yongdingmen with his burden on his back, waited and waited for the angel to come, feeling very regretful in his heart.

At this time, the officials of the Donglin Party who came to dissuade him also knew that he did not want to leave, so they made some gestures to persuade him, and they all went back to their respective homes.

According to them, the emperor scolded Wei Zhongxian a few days ago and praised Yang Lian. Could it be that the resignation was really approved?

In fact, Yang Lian's memorabilia of "begging for great grace" and wanting to "retire bravely and return to Limen" was just a momentary impulse, which was not his original intention.

To be honest, ever since he handed over the memorandum, rolled up his bedding and walked out of the house in a dozen steps, he has already regretted it, feeling that he was too impulsive and shouldn't be too serious.

The current emperor is only a 16-year-old child, if he is really allowed to be angry, will he have to go back on his word and continue to lick his face?

Just thinking about it, Yang Lian was overjoyed when he rode out on a flying horse, but he still had to put on a show, and in a blink of an eye, he changed into a look about to leave.

"Master Yang stay behind!"

Hearing this voice, Yang Lian seemed to realize something, turned around and found that it was Wei Zhongxian who had come out.

What does he come to do?

Yang Lian made a serious face, and snorted coldly: "You don't have to persuade me, the old man has made up his mind to go back to his hometown to work in agriculture, it's better than suffering unfair injustice in the court!"

Although he was scolded, Wei Zhongxian was still very happy. He threw an imperial decree from his horse and said:

"Since this is the case, the governor will not say more, Mr. Yang, the road back to Huguang is not smooth, take care all the way!"

After saying that, Wei Zhongxian yelled "drive" and turned to leave.

After reading the imperial decree, Yang Lian had an expression of disbelief, and his hands were shaking.

This, the emperor is really accurate! ?

The next moment, he remembered Wei Zhongxian's appearance of being a villain just now, and he gripped the imperial decree bitterly and said: "This Wei Xie, the emperor actually believed his slander!"

Holding the imperial decree, Yang Lian was stunned for a long time at Yongding Gate.

Not long after, Donglin party members who received the news rushed over one after another, all of them looked very angry and hated Wei Zhongxian to the bone.

Gao Panlong said: "I heard the news from Wang An that the emperor originally wanted to send an edict to persuade him to stay, but who would have thought that Wei Xie went to the Nuan Pavilion during dinner and had a big meal with the emperor, and it turned out like this in the end."

Yang Lian also sighed, saying that there is nothing to do, the emperor is only 16 years old.

He originally thought that although the emperor was young, he was still smart and sensible, at this time, he only needed to send someone to persuade him a little bit, and give him a step down, and he would come back.

Who would have thought that Wei Zhongxian would be the first to get the moon by being close to the water, after such a coaxing by him, the emperor was coaxed so comfortably that he directly approved his resignation.

Liu Zongzhou also said: "In this way, there will be no room for maneuver in the matter. I am afraid that Duke Yang must leave."

"Everyone, I'm going home first, you must fight that Wei Xie to the end!" Yang Lian bowed deeply after speaking, and had no choice but to carry the burden and go home.

Seeing Yang Lian's back disappearing from his eyes, Liu Zongzhou gritted his teeth and said, "Tomorrow, Mr. Ye will go to the Qianqing Palace to speak on the feast day. I will go to Ye's mansion tonight and ask him to seek justice from the emperor tomorrow!"

Gao Panlong nodded and said: "Since Duke Yang is to be called back, the cabinet must sign his name, and Duke Han and Duke Liu will also pay a visit. As for the new eunuch who is in Jin Dynasty, I will go there in person!"

"What if he doesn't obey you?" Liu Zongzhou was a little worried.

Gao Panlong snorted coldly: "We are the country and the king, so he can't help but disagree!"

Yang Lian submitted his resignation to the Qianqing Palace, which caused an uproar.

But this was just the beginning. Emperor Tianqi, under the "blindness" of Wei Zhongxian, the right eunuch, directly approved Yang Lian's resignation with the sentence "Re-praise his loyalty and allow him to return".

In the eyes of the Donglin party members, Yang Lian was a great talent with both loyalty and courage, and also the most prestigious direct minister of the imperial court. It was a pity that he left so hastily.

So in the following days, Zhu Youxiao will be troubled.

……

On February [-]th of the first year of Tianqi, Ye Xianggao, the chief minister of the cabinet, asked Yang Lian to be reinstated to his post on the grounds that Yang Lian "explained the whole story of the battering and left, and his merits and crimes were not clear".
