Rise From the Humble

  Chapter 960 Friends visit

  At noon, Zhang Siwei and Wang Shizhen came to Zhuji hand in hand.

As soon as the two heard the news of Zhu Pingan's impeachment of Gao Botai in the morning, they wanted to find Zhu Pingan. However, today is the first day after Huo Mu, and there are many things in the yamen. Only when there is time. The two first went to Prince Yu's Mansion, and after hearing the news of Zhu Ping'an's two-day compensatory leave in Prince Yu's Mansion, they first came to Zhu Ji to have a look. If Zhu Ping'an was not in Zhu Ji, they went to Linhuai Hou's Mansion .

   "Business is good, Zihou." Zhang Siwei joked with a smile after meeting Zhu Ping'an in Zhu Ji's backyard.

  As soon as they entered Zhuji, Zhang Siwei and Wang Shizhen were shocked by the popularity of Zhuji's business. They had heard that Zhuji's business was good before, but they never expected that the business would be so hot and overcrowded.

"Let's put the business later. Zihou, why did you impeach Gao Botai? Don't you know that Gao Botai is the nephew of the concubine in Yan Shifan's house?" Wang Shizhen was more anxious, interrupted Zhang Siwei's words, and looked at him worriedly. Zhu Pingan asked.

   "Hehe, Wen Sheng, you are still talking about me. I heard that you arranged a meal for Yan Shifan at the wine table some time ago in front of him." Zhu Pingan laughed and patted Wang Shizhen on the shoulder.

   What Zhu Pingan said was the truth. It happened a week ago, when Yan Shifan hosted a banquet for Li Panlong, Xie Zhen, Wang Shizhen, Yin Shidan and other famous poets. Although Li Panlong, Wang Shizhen and others sneered at Yan Shifan, due to the power of Yan Song and his son, they were both disgusted and afraid of Yan Shifan, and they did not dare to break the appointment. The banquet was okay at the beginning, but Yan Shifan relapsed after drinking too much, poured wine again, and laughed at an old man at the table who could drink as little as a bastard. Wang Shizhen couldn't understand it, so he wrote a poem to satirize Yan Shifan.

  The poem says:

  Hand in hand to go to Heliang, seeing my uncle is like seeing my mother.

   Both of them wept together.

   Three lines!

  This poem satirizes Yan Shifan when you hear it. How could two people shed three lines when they cried together? ! Isn't it because one person has one eye, so two people can cry at the same time, and there are only three lines.

  Yan Shifan is a one-eyed dragon.

   It is said that after Wang Shizhen finished this poem, Yan Shifan's face turned green on the spot. If Yan Shifan hadn't deliberately borrowed Wang Shizhen's talent and name to win over officials all over the world, Yan Shifan probably wouldn't have laughed it off.

   "Ahem, to be honest, I was drunk at the time. Thinking about it afterwards, my back was covered in cold sweat."

  Wang Shizhen looked up at Zhu Ping'an, smiled wryly and shook his head.

"You were in charge after drinking, and there was a reason for me at the time. You don't know. In broad daylight, I read and practiced calligraphy in the morning in front of the canal. For no reason, I was bound by Gao Botai to the prison in Shuntian Mansion. If I hadn't As an official, I have become a "thief" in the prison of Shuntian Mansion. As the commander of the Xicheng Army, how can I be an official like this? Do you think this person should be impeached? How many people have followed my mistakes, they don’t have my official status? In addition, Gao Botai invaded and occupied the farmland, hundreds of military households and ordinary people lost their land, and Gao Botai was so displaced, shouldn’t Gao Botai be impeached?”

  Zhu Ping'an looked at Wang Shizhen, then at Zhang Siwei, explained the matter roughly, then shrugged his shoulders and asked the two of them.

"Having said that, but Zihou, after all, you impeached Zhao Daying, who was named and promoted by Yan Song some time ago, and the Taicang inspection ordered Yan Shifan to pay a fine of 12,000 taels of silver, and now you have impeached Yan Shifan's concubine's nephew You are so easy to be targeted by Yan Shifan. Wen Sheng wrote a poem that satirized Yan Shifan, so it is not suitable to offend Yan Shifan again, but I have never had any disputes with Yan Shifan. Zihou, you should have told me at that time that I was going to impeach Gao Botai. Not much safer than your impeachment."

  Zhang Siwei nodded first, then shook his head, thinking that Zhu Pingan should have told him that he was the one to impeach.

   "It's much better for me to impeach than you." Wang Shizhen also felt the same.

After hearing what Zhang Siwei and Wang Shizhen said, Zhu Ping'an was very moved, but he joked with a playful smile on his face: "Hehe, it's a good idea, don't even think about such a good opportunity to make a name in history. "

   "Roller thick, I'm telling you something serious." Zhang Siwei and Wang Shizhen punched Zhu Ping'an, laughing and cursing.

   "Don't worry, I know it well." Zhu Pingan said seriously.

   "Well, it's good that you know Zihou. As for Yan Song and his son, if you are sure of killing them with one blow, you should never do it. Otherwise, if you don't die when you hit a snake, you will suffer." Zhang Siwei nodded and warned very seriously.

   "Now the Holy Majesty has a lot of trust in Yan Song, and the strict party's power is in full swing. This sincerity cannot compete with him. Zihou, you must be clear." Wang Shizhen also said to Zhu Ping'an with a serious face.

"Yeah, I know. You too, especially you Wen Sheng, don't act recklessly in the future. I have always been respectful to Yan Song and his son. It's just beating a dog. It doesn't look like you beat the owner of the dog. ..."

  Zhu Ping'an nodded, and specifically explained to Wang Shizhen.

  In history, Wang Shizhen and Yan Shifan have had a deep relationship, and it can be said that they are sworn enemies.

  Of course, there are many grievances between them. Zhu Pingan plans to remind Wang Shizhen one by one at that time, especially when Wang Shizhen’s father, Wang Yan, Admiral Ji Liao, must remind Wang Shizhen and tell his father to strengthen the defense of the Panjiakou Great Wall.

  In history, it was because Altan Khan invaded the Great Wall of Panjiakou, drove straight in, and captured Zunhua, Qian'an, Jizhou, and Yutian, four satellite cities of Beijing, killing, burning and looting all the way, which led to Wang Yan being escorted to the capital for questioning. Under the activities of Wang Shizhen and others, a judge sentenced Wang Ying to be married. However, Yan Shifan took the opportunity to attack Emperor Jiajing, taking advantage of Emperor Jiajing's failure in alchemy. He was angry and slandered Emperor Jiajing, saying: "The barbarians invaded the border. Wang Ying has the responsibility of guarding the land and has a heavy army in his hands, but he let the barbarians follow him." The Panjiakou Great Wall in the defense area drove straight in, and fell all the way to the four capital barriers of Zunhua, Qian'an, Jizhou, and Yutian, allowing the barbarians to burn, kill and loot... If the soldiers and civilians did not use their strength, the barbarians would have invaded the capital again. So, it is really his king Is it not enough to mobilize troops? This is obviously because he colluded with the enemy and treasoned the country, and he was in vain of the trust of the emperor. Yousi and Wang Yan had an old relationship, and they only sentenced Wang Yan to the responsibility of dispatching. If the emperor approves, will the people of the world be convinced? Zunhua, Qian'an Can the poor people who were burned, killed, and looted by bandits in Jizhou, Jizhou, and Yutian accept the spirit of heaven? Your Majesty, if you don’t kill Wang Yan, people in the world will find it difficult to accept it. Your Majesty, please think twice.” Emperor Jiajing was in a bad mood at first. Under Yan Shifan's slander, Wang Ying's death sentence was directly commuted.

  Of course, these can only be reminded when the time comes, and the prophets cannot explain it. Now I can only remind Wang Shizhen to avoid enmity with Yan Shifan.
