I'm really not the carpenter emperor
Page 186
Zhang Yan comprehended her expression, and organized her remarks in her heart, then saluted Concubine Liu, and said respectfully:
"All the ministers are using the name of 'loyalty to the emperor' to advise His Majesty on how inappropriate this move is. However, the ministers have not seen what happened during His Majesty's southern tour, nor do they know what the current situation in the south of the Yangtze River is."
"Officials who have been laid off from the Nanjing Ministry can also serve as officials elsewhere, and the saved salaries can also ease the financial crisis."
"Your Majesty is so wise. The Taizu made it. The harem is not allowed to interfere in politics. There are so many disputes in the outer court. What is the intention of breaking the palace ban together?"
"All the ministers must not fall into the situation where I am unfilial and unrighteous, and you should do everything for yourself."
Concubine Liu smiled when she heard the words, looked around at everyone, and said majesticly:
"Did you hear everything the queen said?"
The concubines sighed in their hearts, and they naturally knew that this was the speech prepared by the concubine and the empress in advance. They saluted together and said in unison:
"The courtiers and concubines would like to receive the teachings of the concubine and empress—"
Concubine Liu turned sideways again, signaling the two concubines to come forward, she led Concubine Yu with one hand and Concubine Chun with the other, and looked carefully at the expressions in their eyes.
These peasant girls who had just been selected from outside the palace had never been deceptive in their eyes. Concubine Liu could clearly see the alienation from the emperor in their eyes just by looking over.
She leaned on the back of the chair and stood up with difficulty. All the concubines rushed to help, but they were repelled.
Concubine Liu came to Zhang Yan who was sitting reverently, and looked at it quietly for a while. In her heart, those words just said were what a queen should really possess.
At this time, Concubine Liu's eyes were full of laugh lines, and she sighed like a real loving mother:
"Look at the emperor's little Yu'er, she can talk like that."
At the end of the sentence, Concubine Liu waved her hand, and under the worried eyes of all the concubines, she was mixed into the Buddhist hall by Concubine Yu and Concubine Chun, and continued to burn incense and worship Buddha for Emperor Tianqi.
……
Soon, the news that Concubine Liu presided over the harem discussion spread throughout the outer court.
The civil servants met separately and continued to talk freely.
Ever since Wei Zhongxian came back from Qianqing Palace, his complexion was very bad, and the fans didn't understand that in today's world, there are very few people who would bother the factory owner like this.
After hearing the news of the big discussion in the harem, Wei Zhongxian carefully asked all Concubine Liu and Zhang Yan's remarks, and then laughed heartily.
The wrinkles on his face piled up together, he clapped his hands and said:
"It has to be Concubine Liu!"
Immediately, Wei Zhongxian's expression changed, and he said coldly:
"Pass down the order of the governor, and from now on, anyone who discusses the content of the imperial decree in the public will be arrested for spreading rumors, breaking the law and disordering government!"
Fu Yingxing replied: "Uncle, what about the high officials in the outer court...Since the imperial court has no fixed court meeting, they have been very diligent in their gatherings."
"Since the imperial decree arrived in Beijing, Han Yu's threshold was almost broken."
Wei Zhongxian glanced at him and sneered: "Han Yu dares to let them in?"
"In the past, not only did he dare, but he also held many small meetings at his residence, but after leaving the palace this time, he closed the door to thank the guests, saying that he had a cold."
Fu Yingxing laughed as he spoke, obviously not believing it.
Wei Zhongxian put his hands on the table, and kept hitting a hammer with blood on it with his nails, and said in a deep voice:
"The wind and cold are really at the right time. When the officials broke into the palace today, the governor was in the Qianqing Palace. I saw him still alive and kicking."
"Don't worry about these foreign court officials, start with the people. Unless the people cause trouble, they won't be arrested. Only those who spread rumors will be arrested."
"Send people to the Ministry of Criminal Justice, Dali Temple, and Beizhen Fusi, and tell the fans that it is best to catch a big fish this time. What is the first assistant disciple, the apprentice of Shilin Daxian? This status is the best. Du Hao followed the vine and took the next batch first."
"It's a pity, all the academies in Beijing have been closed by order from Dongchang. If not, it would be a good place to go right now."
Fu Yingxing laughed strangely, then walked away with the two leaders.
Sitting in the official office of the East Factory, Wei Zhongxian turned his head to look at the portrait of Guan Gong behind him, narrowed his eyes gradually, and suddenly said:
"come--!"
"Prepare chariots and horses for the governor, the governor is going to visit the chief assistant's mansion!"
Chapter 3: Wei Zhongxian Sees Han Yu
Since the imperial decree arrived in Beijing, memorials opposing the reform were overwhelmingly sent to Wenyuan Pavilion.
The cabinet ministers, each of them has a conflict of interests behind them, which is very complicated and difficult to deal with at all, so they have to leave this matter to the Qianqing Palace for decision.
A day later, Gu Bingqian, Minister of Rites and Minister of the Ministry of Rites, resigned from the cabinet and returned with a memorial, and dropped another blockbuster in the court.
The words used by the ministers in the memorial are quite fierce.
In particular, Yushi Ren of the Metropolitan Procuratorate was particularly harsh. Even the demon books and demon ways many years ago were used to prove the emperor's stupidity, which has never been seen before.
Zhang Yan was born in a farming family and lived in the deep palace all the year round. Apart from missing Zhu Youxue, she was also at a loss.
Fortunately, there is the concubine Liu who holds the seal of the Empress Dowager. After meeting the cabinet ministers of Wenyuan Pavilion, she once again stated that the harem will respect the Taizu's order and will not interfere in politics. She asked the cabinet and the military computer room to handle the matter.
After that, he chanted scriptures and worshiped Buddha day and night without saying a word.
Han Yu Su likes to read poetry and books. Holding a book, he looked at the gradually dimming sky with disinterest, and couldn't help murmuring:
"480 temples in the Southern Dynasties, how many towers are in the mist and rain."
In his heart, he is still relatively stubborn and conservative.
Emperor Apocalypse condoned Wei Zhongxian's bloodbath of Donglin, he treated it mildly, and perhaps turned a blind eye to preserve part of Donglin's status in the court and his own family's interests.
But suddenly such a large-scale reform, he couldn't accept it in his heart.
Since Qianqing Palace returned home, there were many reasons for Han Yu to thank guests behind closed doors. In the end, his mind has been messed up, and he needs to calm down and think about what he really wants.
Together with the officials, forcing the Queen of the Central Palace to participate in the state affairs is a foolish move.
What is even more unexpected is that in this stupid move, there appeared a person like You Shiren who was afraid of chaos in order to gain fame.
You Shiren made a big disturbance in Qianqing Palace, although he has already offended the rest of the Donglin courtiers, but after all, people in the world will regard them as the same.
After returning, not only Han Yu, but also Liu Zongzhou, Zuo Guangdou and other important officials in Donglin who are the only ones left in the court, never mentioned this matter again, because they were afraid.
You Shiren's actions made even the Donglin Party feel that they were going too far and were afraid.
They all know the means of Emperor Tianqi, no one will make trouble with their wealth and life, the emperor, after all, is the Son of Heaven.
The current Donglin Party has passed the time when it frequently forced the palace three years ago, and most of the remaining people are moderates who are around Han Yu.
Although they are also worried about state affairs, form cliques, and set off party struggles for the interests of the chaebol groups behind them, but most of the time, they are just normal fights.
This is also the reason why Zhu Youxiao left Han Yu and this batch of Donglin Party. It is not good for the Eunuch Party or any of the other Qi, Chu, and Zhejiang parties to dominate.
At present, the eunuch party is in power in the imperial court, and Donglin, Qi Chuzhe and other parties are attacking each other. In fact, it is very in line with Zhu Youxiao's requirements. This has reached the basic check and balance of power.
You Shiren believed that this reform was the emperor's "faint" move, and wanted to break this balance.
He doesn't care about the bloody cleansing of the Donglin party members, or even the family's family's taint for generations. All Youshiren cares about is his reputation.
That is to say, to be famous through the ages and to be famous in the history. This is the ultimate goal that countless scholars want to achieve for thousands of years.
"Master, Wei Zhongxian is here."
Hearing what the butler said, the book in Han Yu's hand fell to the ground. He turned his head suddenly, then turned around in a slump, and waved weakly.
"Call him in, my old face has long since left me."
Han Yu sees himself very clearly, his life has come to the present, and he has even served as the chief minister of the cabinet, so there is no hope left.
But You Shiren is different, at least he still complacently believes that he will be famous all over the world.
Outside the gate of the Han Mansion, Wei Zhongxian's carriage was parked in the shadows by the side of the road. The butler came out, nodded with Fanzi who was holding the rein in the carriage, and opened the back door.
Wei Zhongxian lifted the roller blind, revealing that old donkey face full of viciousness, and walked into the gate of Han Mansion as expected.
This scene was discovered by some wandering scholars on the side of the road, and they immediately publicized it.
……
"Won't the old man go to Wenyuan Pavilion to govern?"
Wei Zhongxian walked into the main hall of the Han Mansion, sat down as if no one else was there, looked around at the relatively simple layout, and said with a smile.
Han Yan sat at the back, a dim candlestick beside him reflected his slightly hunched back, he raised his head and glanced, his voice was full of exhaustion.
"The factory owner came to my house, isn't it for reminiscing about the old days?"
"You don't even serve a cup of tea?" Wei Zhongxian glanced at the empty main hall of the Han Mansion, and sneered: "Ge Lao's way of hospitality..."
"Is there any good tea, clean tea is enough, and the factory owner is used to drinking it?" Han Yu smiled wryly: "I don't have that much money to buy tribute tea from Jiangnan."
"Forget it. The tribute tea Jiangnan sent to the palace is bitter and bitter to drink in Ben Du's mouth. Ben Du has never had the habit of tasting tea."
Wei Zhongxian waved his hand, looked around, and said, "Tsk, the chief minister of the cabinet is so poor, no one will believe you if you say it?"
"Dongchang in the hands of the factory owner, what news can't be found?" Han Yu glanced at him, whether it was ridicule or praise.
"Haha, the governor loves to hear that!"
Wei Zhongxian was noncommittal, and laughed strangely: "It's really pitiful. The world thinks that you, the chief minister of the cabinet, have a lot of money, but I know that you are very poor."
"The chief minister of the cabinet, why did he do it..."
"In name?"
Han Yu shook his head and said:
"The world is bustling, all come for profit, and the world is bustling, all for profit."
"Why did the factory owner become emotional?"
Wei Zhongxian chuckled, then got up, walked around the main hall of the Han Mansion, pondered for a while, and suddenly said: "I came today to make a deal with Mr. Ge."
Han Yu pondered for a moment, searching for memories in his mind, and said lightly:
"What's the lesson?"
"Elder Ge has also seen what Youshi Ren did in Qianqing Palace today, and it was all under your banner."
Wei Zhongxian smiled and continued:
"Elder Ge is diligent in his work, loyal to the emperor and the country, and I can also find out in Dongchang, which proves that you are indeed a real celebrity in the world."
"The wanderer is allowed to usurp today. Sooner or later, this matter will spread to the south, and His Majesty will hear it. At that time, His Majesty will definitely ask me to investigate thoroughly..."
"If this investigation continues, I'm afraid not only elder Ge will be involved, but Liu Zongzhou, Zuo Guangdou and others, as well as elder Ge's relatives, will not be spared."
"Mr. Ge is a smart man. Your Majesty has been preparing for this reform for a long time, and it is a foregone conclusion. This is not a trivial matter."
Han Yu actually had this intention long ago, he gently stroked his beard, and listened teasingly to Wei Zhongxian's continuation, pondering endlessly.
At this time, Wei Zhongxian changed the subject and finally clarified the purpose of the trip:
"You Shiren is from Donglin, you must have a confessor who can convict him, the governor doesn't want anyone else, Tao Yunxian's case must be overturned, neither Youshiren nor Tao Yunxian can live."
"Elder Ge also knows that Yuan Keli is the person His Majesty wants to protect, and this governor is here to tell you clearly that Yuan Keli is the governor of Denglai, and he can't move now."
"For someone?" Han Yu opened his eyes wide.
After all, You Shiren was born in Donglin. Apart from colluding with Tao Yunxian to devour Dongjiang's military expenditure, he also had many crimes such as reselling disaster relief rice and so on.
But here comes the problem, this kind of thing often affects the whole body.
You Shiren is already a mad dog, and if he is attacked by Donglin and the eunuchs together, it's hard to guarantee that he won't bite around and reveal all kinds of things.
Wei Zhongxian also thought about this question.
Seeing that Han Yu was groaning silently, he said in a low voice:
"Yu Ru Yu Cheng, after today's incident, the concubine and the empress will be dissatisfied with elder Ge and Dong Lin. You are now isolated and helpless."
"The queen's son, in the future, must be my crown prince, the future emperor. Your majesty is in his prime, but now he is in trouble. As a minister, how can you not think of repaying him?"
"As long as it is really done, the one above will see it."
Chapter 3 The Great War Will Begin
Disputes between North Korea and China gradually arose, and the situation in Liaodong, which had been stable for nearly two years, was also subject to drastic changes.
Wei Zhongxian restarted Tao Yun's first case in the second year of Tianqi, but for some reason, the Donglin moderate faction began to join hands with the Eunuch Party to deal with Yu Shiren, the imperial historian of the Metropolitan Procuratorate.
When the latter learned of this, he joined forces with a group of radical civil servants, like a group of mad dogs, biting everywhere.
