Before entering the palace, Wang Xiao asked Lu Zhengchu why he wanted the emperor to open the East Factory and reuse the Taiping Division?

At that time, Lu Zhengchu smiled and said: "It's still from the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, in the forty-third time, Lu Su persuaded Sun Quan that everyone can surrender to Cao Cao, but the lord cannot surrender to Cao, do you know what it means?" ”

The king smiled and said: "The courtier surrendered Cao Cao or became a courtier, and the monarch surrendered, but it will not end well." ”

Lu Zhengchu nodded and said: "Now that I am in the current situation of the Chu Dynasty, if there is a day when a rogue or a Jiannu invade the capital. When the time comes, how many of the so-called loyal officials of the Manchu Dynasty can be who will die righteously? And where does Your Majesty go from here? ”

Wang smiled silently.

Lu Zhengchu smiled bitterly: "If others say that what the old man did today is for his own selfishness, then the old man is just a traitor." But if the situation really reaches the worst step, the old man thinks about it, and the people who can faithfully protect His Majesty are those fanzi and eunuchs that we literati have always looked down on.

According to the old man's estimate, within 20 years, maybe the capital will be broken one day. But as long as His Majesty or the prince is there, Da Chu's qi will still be there. There are civil officials everywhere, there are North Zhili, there are also South Zhili, if the Son of Heaven really has a day of southern tour, there must be some eagle dogs around him, otherwise he will be overlooked......"

Lu Zhengchu's tone was filled with a deep sigh: "Whether you believe it or not, this is the original intention of the old man to persuade His Majesty to reuse the factory division." Speaking of which, it's just a chaotic era with five words, and the troubled times are coming......"

Troubled times coming?

After hearing this, Wang Xiaosi thought about it and decided to help Lu Zhengchu do this thing.

On the one hand, in order to save the eldest brother, on the other hand, he also felt something.

If it were someone else, he would probably say that Lu Zhengchu was alarmist.

But Wang Xiao knew that what he said was true, and he was very impressed in his heart.

is worthy of being an old treacherous and slippery auxiliary minister, and a pair of old eyes are really accurate.

In the original history, the Ming Dynasty fell, and Emperor Chongzhen's sentence before he was silent was all mistaken by all the ministers, as if in Wang Xiao's mind, how many people could answer Lu Zhengchu's sentence of righteousness and death? And when Chongzhen hanged himself on the crooked neck tree, the only one who went with him in the end was the eunuch named Wang Chengen next to him.

There must always be some eagle dogs around Your Majesty, and Lu Zhengchu has become a prophecy.

Even if Wang Xiao couldn't tell whether these ministers of the Yanguang Dynasty were loyal or traitorous at the moment, he decided to believe Lu Zhengchu.

At this time, he didn't think that he would become a traitor accused by Shilin because of tonight's incident, and he became notorious from then on......

Of course, he was not wronged.

Emperor Yanguang was indeed moved by him.

Tonight's matter is actually very simple: the left waiter of the Criminal Department, Qian Chengyun, was wronged and allowed to attach Ma Wang Xiao, and connected with Tai Si Ping to take people. The emperor was furious, and issued an order to rectify the Taiping Division and reopen the East Factory to supervise the Taiping Division.

All the planning and calculations have led to such a result.

Emperor Yanguang and Lu Zhengchu's movements were extremely fast, and two decrees were transmitted out of the palace overnight, one was to change the commander of the Taiping Division, and the other was to reopen the East Detective Factory.

Wang Fang, who was kneeling and crying, still had tears on his face, but he had already transformed into a fierce and vicious admiral of Dongchang who could stop children crying at night.

Everything is ready, and as soon as the two central decrees are sealed, the matter will be settled.

At this moment, Lu Zhengchu knelt quietly on the main hall, not knowing what he was thinking. Maybe it's saying goodbye to his own name.

As if his heart was dead, Mei Jingsheng slowly and solemnly took off the official hat on his head, and said sadly: "Minister, beggar bones." ”

This is to say goodbye to the old man and return home.

Emperor Yanguang was stunned for a moment, and wanted to say something, but he still didn't know how to say it after all.

Monarchs and ministers, fate is over.

Luo Yuan looked around blankly, and only felt that everyone in this hall should be impeached by himself.

It is necessary to impeach Bian Xiu Yongmingzhe to protect his life, to impeach Wang Xiao and Lu Zhengchu for bewitching His Majesty, and to impeach His Majesty for acting arbitrarily......

"Elder Lu Ge stays, and everyone else retreats." Emperor Yanguang waved his hand and glanced at Wang Fang.

Wang Fang was stunned for a moment, and with Emperor Yanguang's gaze, he only saw Chen Yuanyuan's graceful figure.

The old eunuch nodded and signaled to Emperor Yanguang: The old slave understands.

"The first thing the old slave, the governor of Dongchang, did when he took the throne, was to leave this woman in the palace for His Majesty!"

At this moment, everyone who goes out has a different idea in their hearts.

Deng Jingrong recalled the excitement of a night tour of the palace; Xue Gaoxian secretly rejoiced; Qian Carrier breathed a sigh of relief; Mei Jingsheng's heart is like a tree......

Wang Xiao walked at the end, feeling a little relaxed and a little confused.

finally rescued the eldest brother, and also saw what kind of person the high-ranking officials and emperors of the Chu Dynasty were.

It's time to end this fulfilling day, live your own little life, and make plans to go to Jiangnan......

But there was only one thing that made it a little difficult for him to let go.

The little eunuch who walked in front of him and led the way had crossed the threshold with one foot.

Wang Xiao suddenly turned around, and walked towards the emperor with some determination.

He knew he was just getting out of trouble, and he knew he might face more trouble if he turned back.

But, he just couldn't just walk away.

"Your Majesty, there is one more thing for the grass people." Wang smiled, his face was very solemn.

Emperor Yanguang and Lu Zhengchu were both stunned.

Emperor Yanguang frowned, and said in a low voice, "What can you do?" Don't you want to see Chunning? Young people don't want to be frizzy, what is the hurry......"

Wang Xiao was a little speechless.

He sorted out his words and spoke: "The grass people met a person named Fu Qingzhu in the prison of the Criminal Department yesterday, and he said that there is a plague in Shanxi now. I think we should take it seriously......"

Lu Zhengchu and Emperor Yanguang glanced at each other and fell silent.

After a while, Lu Zhengchu sighed: "After the catastrophe, there is often a plague, which is also a helpless thing. ”

Wang Xiao was a little excited, and said: "But this plague is different, if it is not prevented, it may ...... Many, many, many people will die......"

Lu Zhengchu said with a straight face: "Shut up!" If you don't want to be locked up like Master Fu Qing, you take care of your mouth. ”

"But ......"

"No, but!"

Wang Xiao's gaze looked back and forth on the faces of Lu Zhengchu and Emperor Yanguang, a little confused, and muttered, "You all know? You all believe it? So why not prevent it?! If it is allowed to develop, it will really kill many, many people...... Even this capital ......"

Emperor Yanguang subconsciously waved his hand, looking a little impatient.

Wang smiled at his movements and was slightly stunned.

"Your Majesty......"

Emperor Yanguang slowly sat down, leaned on the couch, closed his eyes, and sighed: "Lu Cifu, you talk to him, let him take care of his mouth." ”

Wang Xiao was a little stunned.

Looking at their appearances, they obviously all know about this, so what else is there to discuss?

Lu Zhengchu pondered for a while, and said slowly to Wang Xiao: "Master Fu Qing, the old man also met this time, and he also knows the situation in Shanxi. However, on this matter, it is rare for Zheng Shoufu, Zuo Ge Lao and the old man to agree on it...... All in all, the court can't control it. ”

Wang Xiao said blankly: "Why? The court should be prevented. ”

"Why?" Lu Zhengchu asked rhetorically, with a self-deprecating smile on his face, "Your Majesty and the old man actually sat down with you to talk about such a simple question, you have such a big face." The old man asked you, how to prevent it? ”

"Of course I want to ......," Wang Xiao said, he was also stunned for a moment, only to think that after all, it was different from the era he was in, and many methods would not work in this feudal dynasty, so many words were swallowed back by him.

He thought about it for a while, and then said, "We can lock down the area with the plague, freeze the flow of people, screen other people, and then concentrate doctors to treat them." There are also many small ways to burn corpses, maintain hygiene, and exterminate rats...... I'll go back and think about these details, summarize them and write them to you......"
