647 Resignation

"Instead of thinking about how to suppress things down at the moment, it is better to find a way to get the person who is more anxious than us to do it, as long as they are in the way, what are we afraid of. ”

After Rui Min finished speaking, Xiao Minyuan and the others showed different colors on their faces.

Cen Zongguang said on the side: "But how can we know who the person who is more anxious than us is, not to mention that now that Wei Mincai is on the side, then Luo Wanquan may not be willing to speak, what if they are patient and don't do anything?"

"No way. ”

Rui Min said in a deep voice: "Don't you know what kind of place the Jingzhao Prison is, when you enter there, you can't help Luo Wanquan not speak, besides, it is so easy for them to pull you down from the position of the official secretary, and if they want to get this position quietly, they can't help but think too well." ”

"And at this time, it's not easy to know who did the Taixu thing, you just need to see who didn't fall into the hole for Zong Guang at this time. ”

Xiao Minyuan and Cheng Yu thought for a moment when they heard this, and then they knew what Rui Min meant.

Tai Xu has been able to deceive and hide for so long, and this must not be something that one or two people can do, but those who can be involved are either those high-ranking people in the court, or the eldest prince and the fourth prince who have been-for-tat with Xiao Minyuan.

If it is an important minister in the court, there are only a few people who can involve the officials and can hide from Cen Guangzong's conspiracy, as long as they find a way to eliminate them one by one, they can find the people behind the scenes, but if it is the eldest prince and the fourth prince......

It is not a matter of a day or two for the two of them to get the position of the secretary of the ministry, if according to the usual time, the ministry has such a big basket, they will definitely chase after Tai Xu's affairs, and try their best to pull Cen Zongguang down the ground, but if Tai Xu's matter is really related to any of them, they must hope that this matter can be quickly settled down more than Cen Zongguang.

Xiao Minyuan thought of this and raised his voice: "Liuxi." ”

Outside, Liu Xi quickly pushed the door and walked in: "What does the prince command?"

"What has been going on in the Great Prince's Mansion and the Fourth Prince's Mansion in the past few days?" Xiao Minyuan asked.

Liu Xi thought for a while and replied in a low voice: "It's still the same, the fourth prince often gathers with people in the mansion with Li Fengqi, and privately Li Fengqian has been trying to find a way to contact Beining, it seems that he wants to rein in the people of the Lu family for their use." ”

"As for the eldest prince, he went to Xishan in the past few days, saying that he was praying for His Majesty, and there were generals around him to follow, so we didn't dare to follow too closely, and Chen Pinyun and the Liu family have not moved, but a few days ago, Dong Nianzhi didn't know why he had a dispute with Chen Pinyun, and left the Chen family angrily. ”

Xiao Minyuan squinted slightly when he heard this, Dong Nianzhi and the Chen family ...... What can they have?

That Dong Nianzhi was seized by him, and he has always refused to follow him, and he is even more secretive about the affairs of the Chen family and the eldest prince, and is only willing to give him some news on the premise of not hurting Xiao Xianhong's interests, and now he will actually have a disagreement with the Chen family, could it be that something is wrong with Xiao Xianhong?

"Find a way to find out why Dong Nianzhi and Chen Pinyun had a dispute. ”

"Yes. ”

Liuxi nodded and withdrew.

Rui Min waited for Liu Xi to leave before he spoke: "Lord, judging from the current situation, there is no big movement on the side of the eldest prince and the fourth prince, if you want to test their truth and truth, I am afraid that you still need to add fire to the court." ”

"It's really about adding fire. ”

Xiao Minyuan looked at Cen Zongguang as he spoke, while Rui Min and Cheng Yu also looked at Cen Zongguang.

Cen Zongguang looked at them inexplicably: "What are you looking at me for?"

Rui Min said: "Zongguang, you still need to add this fire. ”

"Me?!"

Cen Zongguang's eyes widened, looking at the three of them with some confusion, Rui Min saw that he didn't understand, so he waved his hand directly at him and called him over, and then motioned for him to hang his head and whisper in his ear.

After waiting for him to finish speaking, Cen Zongguang raised his head violently and said with an ugly face: "You are crazy, you actually want me to resign from the position of Shangshu?!"

Rui Min spoke: "What are you doing so excited, I don't really want you to resign, but I want you to make this gesture." ”

"But ......"

Cen Zongguang hesitated, how many people watched the position of Shangshu, if he made a gesture of resignation, what if someone really pushed the boat down the river and took the opportunity to occupy the position so that he couldn't take it back?

Xiao Minyuan looked at Cen Zongguang's appearance, and knew what he was thinking, he said in a deep voice beside him: "Don't you understand what Rui Lao means, now my father is already dissatisfied with you, and too many things come from your ministry, whether you did it or not, this matter has nothing to do with you, plus you made a move when Luo Wanquan returned to Beijing before, and fell into the hands of others, instead of holding your position and waiting for others to come to you for trouble, it is better for you to make a move yourself to muddy the water." ”

"At present, only the more chaotic the situation, the more beneficial it will be to you, besides, who do you think your father is, with his thoughts, if he senses that someone wants to take power in the court by taking advantage of the affairs of Taixu and Luo Wanquan, intending to pocket the officials, how can he resign from your official position at this time and vacate the position of the secretary of the ministry for others to compete for?"

Since being injured by Xiao Yuanzhu three years ago, Emperor Yongzhen's temperament has become more and more tyrannical and suspicious, and his control over the court has become more and more strict.

He was afraid that the princes of the court would seize power, and he was worried that his body would not be able to suppress them, so he continued to promote several other young princes to suppress and balance the forces between him, the eldest and the fourth, and single-handedly contributed to the current three-legged situation.

At this time, whoever came forward to compete for the Ministry of Officials and intended to meddle in the affairs of the Six Ministries was having a great disrespect for rebellion, and with Emperor Yongzhen's suspicion, even if he didn't like Cen Zongguang and even suspected that Taixu's matter was related to him, it was absolutely impossible for him to vacate the position of the Ministry of Officials at this time.

If someone can intervene again at this time, and even "frame" Cen Zongguang with the matter of Taixu and Luo Wanquan, Emperor Yongzhen will not only be suspicious of him, but also suspect whether there are other conspiracies in it.

At that time, as long as Emperor Yongzhen is unwilling, who can get the position of this official book, and even as long as Emperor Yongzhen doubts the authenticity of it, even if someone stabs the matter that Cen Zongguang once did to Luo Wanquan today, how many people will believe it?

Xiao Minyuan said to Cen Zongguang: "You should know how much trouble it will be for people who are officials in the court, if they have a handle in the hands of others, even if you are lucky not to be pulled down by this matter today, if there is a chance in the future, it will inevitably be turned over by someone, and when the time comes, today's mistakes will become a thousand catties of boulders and you will not be able to turn over." ”
