Chapter 36: Xiongjin sings the world white
Knowing this, I'm afraid that Li Dongyang is going to enter the palace again.
Sure enough, the next moment, Li Dongyang said that he had something to say goodbye, and he was annoyed that the subordinates on the side sent the people to the house.
He not only wants to enter the palace, but also pulls Yan Chengjin.
This will Yan Chengjin not be calm, you want to go to the palace to complain, what are you doing with me?
Yan Chengjin said unresignedly: "If the students don't go, the snow will flood the city, the road will be blocked and slippery, what if you fall?" ”
Li Dongyang said: "The official carries you!" ”
Yan Chengjin said again: "The student weighs 100 catties, how dare you work the adult's daughter's body, you should let the student go!" ”
Li Dongyang hated iron and said: "Why are you so afraid of death, no wonder you will ask for a gold medal to avoid death, they all say that the tiger father has no dog, why did Brother Cang Jin give birth to you a turtle grandson, shame!" ”
"How can Li Gong be rude, the student respects you as a great writer so he didn't resist, and then the student has to defend himself............ Those who speak may not be brave, and those who speak peace may not be cowardly, and Li Gong also knows it......"
Yan Chengjin was careless, and was carried by Li Dongyang with his backhand, so he entered the palace.
Forbidden city
Emperor Hongzhi had just approved the 100,000 taels of silver from the eunuch Li Guang, the eunuch of the ceremonial department, which were used for the production of the Jiangnan Weaving Bureau, and was about to take a nap at noon, but he heard the little eunuch report: "Your Majesty, Lord Li Dongyang asked to see him, and he also brought Yan Chengjin." ”
Emperor Hongzhi loosened his shoulders, stood up, and said with a somewhat sleepy expression: "Come in." ”
Outside the hall, Li Dongyang and Yan Chengjin were waiting for the announcement, Li Dongyang said: "You will follow behind the official for a while, everything has the official, you don't need to worry, just ask what you say." ”
Yan Chengjin knew that the three ministers of the cabinet, even if this one was the most wise.
Generally, a person with great wisdom has a deep routine, so he will not be so stupid and say whatever he asks.
During the Zhengde period, the Eight Tigers were in charge.
Liu Jian and Xie Qian both forced Liu Jin away, but Li Dongyang, who was left with humiliation and burden, suffered from the misunderstanding between Liu Jian and Xie Qian, and even Liu Jin thought that he was his own person, who knew that Li Dongyang put Liu Jin fiercely, and the city was deeper than the Mariana Trench.
Li Dongyang and Yan Chengjin walked into the hall one after another, and when they arrived in front of the emperor, Yan Chengjin didn't dare to cower anymore.
Emperor Hongzhi smiled and said, "Why did Li Gong go and return?" ”
Li Dongyang said: "The minister just went to the Yan Mansion to ask for some people to cage their mouths, and I heard that people made cages, one is only a few pennies, but Li Guang, the master of ceremonies, begged for 100,000 taels of silver, and the minister felt that this matter still needs to be discussed with the household department." ”
Emperor Hongzhi knew Li Dongyang's deep meaning as soon as he heard it, so he looked at Yan Chengjin.
Yan Chengjin said succinctly: "The human cage mouth is made by the grass people, and the grass people know best, and it really only costs a few pennies." ”
The low-profile version of the person has a cage mouth, two layers of white cotton cloth sewn together, and it has been disinfected with alcohol, how much can it be worth?
Emperor Hongzhi's brows were twisted together, and he could see the deep anger under Long Yan, and immediately asked the little eunuch to call Li Guang.
I saw a flattering eunuch walk in, and when he entered the door, he glanced at Yan Chengjin with pity, and then knelt down in front of Emperor Hongzhi: "Slave Li Guang, knock to see Your Majesty!" ”
When eunuchs gain power, they all like to develop their children and grandchildren in the palace, good things don't go out, and bad things spread thousands of miles, especially in the deep palace.
From Yan Chengjin's eyes just now, he guessed that Li Guang already knew a thing or two.
Emperor Hongzhi said without anger: "I heard that you beg for 100,000 taels of silver to make a person with a cage mouth, but it is only a few pennies, why is this?" ”
At this moment, Li Guang couldn't wait to let the old Taoist of the Manifestation Palace set up Jiao and scatter charms to curse Yan Chengjin and Li Dongyang to death.
"Yan Gongzi is in front of His Majesty the Emperor, you can't talk nonsense and bully the king, but you have to lose your head, but don't bother your father!" Li Guangdao.
Yan Chengjin heard the deep meaning.
Threaten my dad and threaten me?
Well, I can only send you a catastrophe that will never be recovered.
I have a fascination that I can't move, and Xiongjin sings the world white.
Just pretending to be a quail, do you really think I'm a quail?
He will never leave a hidden danger to the root of the bane, especially a big traitor like Li Guang who has gained power.
Yan Chengjin said solemnly: "The minister wants to ask Your Majesty to settle an account, a batch of ordinary white cotton cloth is only more than 30 yuan, one or two silver can buy 30 horses, one horse can be used as 200 people, if you buy more, you can also negotiate the price with the owner, and the people can not be put aside for a long time, the money sold in the first batch, and then buy the second batch of materials, so that it is enough, 20,000 taels of silver." ”
Li Guang jumped up in a hurry: "What about wine, don't you want silver for wine?" ”
"Wine is easier to do, it can be mixed with a certain amount of water, and it is not used for spirits, so the calculation of the talent includes the price of wine and the wages of the workers."
Yan Chengjin reminded again: "If Gonggong Li had not been greedy for ink, it would be better to search Gonggong Li's residence, and it would be better to return Gonggong Li's innocence. ”
Misunderstood fart!
Misunderstanding, can you know that a white cloth is more than 30 yuan? You obviously want to kill me, Li Guang is anxious.
Li Dongyang glanced at Yan Chengjin and said: "The minister, please, it is better to let Jinyiwei search the residence of Gonggong Li, if it is a false accusation, the minister will bear it together!" ”
Yan Chengjin suddenly felt that Li Dongyang's whole person was glowing.
Sure enough, it is true, unlike the prince who will let his mouth open.
Originally, I felt sorry for the death-free gold medal, but now it seems that I don't need it.
Emperor Hongzhi nodded and said, "Well, leave it to Jinyiwei to do it!" ”
At this time, Xiao Jingxi said with a smile: "Your Majesty, why bother with Jinyi Wei in this matter, let the factory guard do it, it will be faster." ”
Seeing that Xiao Jing didn't deal with him, Yan Chengjin was even more relieved.
Emperor Hongji gave permission.
Li Guang was so frightened that his back was soaked.
After a while, Xiao Jing came back empty-handed, Yan Chengjin sighed in his heart, didn't he find it?
Xiao Jing knelt down and said: "The matter is very high, the slave is afraid that His Majesty the Emperor will not believe it, so I ask Your Majesty to move Li Guang's mansion." ”
"Good"
Li Guang was so frightened that he was half unconscious, his legs were weak, and he almost fell, but the two little eunuchs dragged him out.
Yan Chengjin followed Emperor Hongzhi to a courtyard in the palace, and the factory guards escorted a few eunuchs, presumably Li Guang's cronies heard the news and wanted to hide the dirt, but were caught by the factory guards.
Xiao Jing's efficiency is really high, who will say that the factory guard is a vegetarian in the future, Yan Chengjin is the first to refuse.
Emperor Hongzhi entered the small courtyard, Xiao Jing dragged out several large boxes from under the bed, all of which were gold, silver and jewelry, and cut the pillow with a knife, all of which were Ming treasure money.
The faces of Emperor Hongzhi and Li Dongyang were wonderful.
Xiao Jing presented two booklets, and Emperor Hongzhi opened them to see that they were all yellow rice and white rice, and said in surprise: "What do you think of this running account?" ”
Xiao Jing said: "Your Majesty doesn't know, this is not an ordinary running account, yellow rice and white rice are hidden words: one stone of yellow rice is one tael of gold, and one stone of white rice is one tael of platinum." ”
Emperor Hongzhi looked at this account book again and realized that something was wrong: Wang Yue had 500 stone of yellow rice and 10,000 stone of white rice.
This Wang Yue's family is rich, and it is impossible for him to eat Li Guang's rice?
There is also Cheng Minzheng, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites: 1,000 stones of white rice?!
Who's house has what kind of rice and how many stones, all of which are clearly recorded in this booklet.
"The slave has betrayed His Majesty's trust...... Li Guang shouted in his mouth, lying on the ground and crying for mercy.
Emperor Hongzhi was already stunned, and after reacting, the more he thought about it, the more angry he became, and he threw the booklet in Li Guang's face: "One person's bribe is enough to pay for the endowment of one government, do you still have me in your heart!" "Kicking Li Guang hard.
