151 Money makes a devil grind
There are many people who have the same worries as Wu Xiang, and there are many people in Jingshi.
No, Chen Xinjia, the former secretary of the Ministry of War, although it was late at night, he didn't feel sleepy, through the open window, he looked up at a cold moon hanging in the night sky, and from time to time, he let out a long sigh.
I don't know how long it took, but an annoyed female voice finally sounded in the house, "Master, what's the use of you just worrying?" sighed for a long time, if you continue like this, you haven't died yet, and the slave family will be frozen to death by you! ”
When Chen Xinjia heard it, he sighed again, and finally reached out to close the window, turned his head to look at the person on the bed, his concubine, and said depressedly, "When I turn around and Jinyiwei comes to check, you say, how can you hide?" ”
"Master, you are really, what is there to worry about!" The woman on the bed listened, yawned and said, "If you can't hide, don't hide, just smash it with money, it's just more money and less money!" ”
"You know what?" When Chen Xinjia heard this, he couldn't help but reprimand, but he was a little reluctant, so he explained to her, "This Jinyi Guard Commander is not a money-greedy person!" Haven't you heard? A while ago, he also donated all the silver that the emperor rewarded him to those refugees. ”
When the woman heard this, she thoughtfully removed Chen Xinjia's coat and served him to lie down, and said, "He did that before, just for a reputation, could the emperor still treat him badly after he found out?" ”
In order to invite a direct name, Chen Xinjia didn't think about it. But he always felt that this Zhang Mingwei didn't seem to care much about money! It's not like no one has given him gifts before, but as soon as he changed hands, he spent it on refugees!
As soon as he said this, the woman suddenly disdained, and then lay in Chen Xinjia's arms and asked him, "Isn't being an official just to make a fortune?" The slave family doesn't believe it, is there a cat in this world that doesn't love meat? Now that he has been blessed with grace and brought down all of you who are jealous of him and who are jealous of him, it is time to enjoy it. ”
Speaking of this, seeing that Chen Xinjia was pondering and did not speak, she continued, "As the saying goes, money can make ghosts grind!" As long as the master smashes it with money, the slave family doesn't believe it, why would he bite the master? If he really wants to bite the master, it is not enough money! ”
Speaking of this, she sighed at Chen Xinjia's face, and then said, "As long as the master is willing to spend money, he will be attached to him, and he will take the lead." So what reason does he have not to let the master go? Maybe the master will not only be able to reinstate the official, but even go further, it may not be known! ”
Hearing this, Chen Xinjia's eyes couldn't help but light up.
For him, he absolutely agrees with the saying that money can make ghosts grind. After all, he usually collects filial piety in a big way, and he always thinks that others are similar.
In the original history, after he was imprisoned, he also took out a large amount of money to bribe Yu Shi Liao Guoxuan, Yang Zhiqi and others to speak for him.
At this time, he listened to his concubine's words, and in addition to agreeing, his eyes lit up.
By the way, before, I always felt that this Xingguo Guild violated my interests, so I thought about impeaching him and bringing him down. Now, if you change it, but go to slap him, you can use him, and when you are one of his dogs, it is impossible to shout and kill, right?
This change in thinking made Chen Xinjia feel that he was finally no longer confused, and his mood suddenly improved a lot. However, as soon as he thought of taking a large amount of money to reverse the relationship with Xingguo Gong, he immediately felt distressed again.
So, he patted the back of the person in his arms, and said a little dissatisfied, "Why didn't you say it before?" If you had thrown it earlier, it probably wouldn't have cost you any money! ”
When this woman heard this, she immediately became coquettish, grinding Chen Xinjia and said, "In the previous time, who knew that this Xingguo Gong would be so favored!" ”
Hearing this, Chen Xinjia couldn't help but feel jealous in his heart again, who said it wasn't!
………………
There are definitely some people like Chen Xinjia who think like Chen Xinjia in the entire Beijing Division. But before they could act, another very big news spread.
"What? The original household department gave the matter to the left Maodi actually became the secretary of the ministry? How is this possible? ”
"Yes, this is a step to the sky, and the speed of this promotion is too fast, right?"
"What's this, let me tell you, the former prefect of Changsha blocked Yinxi, and he was even named a scholar of Wenyuan Pavilion and entered the cabinet!"
"Is there any reason for this? Who is Plug Yinxi, I have never heard of it, and he actually entered the cabinet? ”
“……”
In short, as soon as the matter of Zuo Maodi and Plug Yinxi spread, the officialdom of the Ming Jingshi didn't believe it at first. After all, with such a one-step promotion speed, how many people can there be in the entire Ming Dynasty?
Really, who believes this when it comes out!
However, when they checked it, it was soon confirmed that it was all true!
This time, the officialdom of the Beijing division exploded! In particular, yesterday a large number of officials were dismissed together, and today's official position is one step to the sky, which is simply two extremes, and comparing them together is even more exciting.
Naturally, after confirming the news, many people are very jealous of Zuo Maodi and Du Yinxi. The so-called can't eat grapes and say that grapes are sour, and they talk behind their backs that the appointments of these two people are the middle order, and they even accepted the order, which is really spineless.
However, more people felt that there must be some reason for these two people's strange promotion, so they inquired one after another.
In fact, it didn't take much effort for them to find out quickly.
There is no other reason, just because they were recommended to the emperor by the Duke of Xingguo!
This time, many people understand.
Look, those who oppose Xingguo Gong, no matter who they are, will all lose their official positions and go to work; And those who took refuge in Xingguogong, did they see it, they were directly the ministers and the ministers, as well as the treatment of the cabinet ministers!
Needless to say, recognize this, and officialdom is the most snobbish.
Those who did not participate in the impeachment of Zhang Mingwei due to various reasons, or were either absent, or did other things, or did not have enough official positions, were the first to take action, and went to visit Xingguo Gong with gifts in an attempt to take refuge.
Soon, even those who had impeached Zhang Mingwei pretended that they had not been impeached, and went to join in the fun with a shy face, trying to recognize their ancestors.
All of a sudden, the Xingguo Mansion was full of people again.
………………
Zhang Mingwei was still busy checking and arresting people, and he had to discuss the reconstruction of the Beijing camp with the emperor and others, and after hearing that Lan Dibao came to the yamen to tell him that there were many people giving gifts, he was slightly stunned, thinking in his heart, don't they know that they are arresting corruption and bribery?
When they came to their senses, it didn't matter, they sent it if they wanted. Anyway, there is Princess Kunxing here, so let her go to collect gifts and keep accounts, after all, who thinks more silver!
The silver that is sent to the door will not be collected in vain!
As a result, those who gave gifts to the door did not see Xingguo Gong at all. However, when they gave the gift, they accepted it.
There was such a time before. Some people begin to suffer from gains and losses, and they feel sorry for the money, but also worry that the money will not work.
Just like that, two days later, news suddenly came out.
Zhou Yuji, the deputy general of the Yongwei Battalion, made meritorious contributions to pacifying the Fangshan bandits, arrested Zhu Chunchen's rebels, and took over the Beijing camp. As for the other relevant officers and soldiers of the Yongwei Battalion, they have all been promoted.
Regarding Zhou Yuji's promotion to the chief soldier, there was not much surprise. However, if he was also made a loyal uncle, then this thing is rare.
The most famous in the Yongwei battalion are Sun Yingyuan and Huang Degong, who became the commander-in-chief first. Now both of them are leading troops out and fighting on the battlefield, but they don't have knighthoods.
And Zhou Yuji, who is second-class, although he also has a lot of military exploits, he is definitely not as great as Sun Yingyuan and Huang Degong in comparison. Pacifying the bandits in Fangshan, whose credit is that? What really took the shot was actually the arrest of Zhu Chunchen. However, if this matter were to be done by the other two commanders, it would be no problem.
So, soon, basically most people came to a conclusion, because Zhou Yuji and Xingguo Gong were close, so they got this benefit!
As a result, suddenly, many people who were still waiting and watching stopped watching. Originally, I was reluctant to take the money to smash it, but I didn't care. In short, it is necessary to smash it so that Xingguo Gong agrees, and it is impossible to be a lackey for his subordinates.
However, they didn't think that Liu Zongzhou had been speaking for the Duke of Xingguo since then, and he was not still the imperial history of the left capital, and he was not promoted!
If his official position is high enough, what about Fang Yizhi and Huang Zongxi? This is a real student of Xingguo Gong, and there is no reward!
Of course, the relationship between Fang Yizhi and Huang Zongxi and Zhang Mingwei is still known to very few people. However, Emperor Chongzhen knew.
Not to mention, Emperor Chongzhen once mentioned to Zhang Mingwei that his students must be good, or give them some officials.
In this regard, Zhang Mingwei refused, meaning to let them do their studies with peace of mind. Wait until the military is straightened out and the world is not so critical, and then focus on what they are studying.
As for the real reason why Zhou Yuji was knighted, in fact, when the assassins tried to assassinate Zhang Mingwei twice, they did not let them succeed, plus they had to rely on the couple to protect Zhang Mingwei and Princess Kunxing on weekdays, and Emperor Chongzhen took out a reward from an earl, which was no problem at all!
On March 20, the fifteenth year of Chongzhen, Zuo Yingxuan returned to Beijing. Emperor Chongzhen immediately informed Zhang Mingwei, and after some communication, on March 22, Zhang Mingwei led 3,000 Yongwei battalions, with Zhou Yuji as the main general, and drove to Shanhaiguan.
Although Xingguo Gong went out of Beijing this time, there was no news in the court. However, after everyone knew that the destination was Shanhaiguan, they were sure that this was to clean up the mess of the Battle of Songjin.
In this way, many people are curious.
