Chapter 246: Alarming the Government and the Opposition
Cui Chengxiu's resignation is constantly fermenting.
Cui Chengxiu is one of the diehards of the eunuch party, and his power can be seen if he can force away the first assistant Gu Bingqian. His sudden resignation, the government and the opposition don't know how many people are terrified, even Zhou Yingqiu, the 'head of the ten dogs', the former official secretary can't be calm.
His son, who is Wei Zhongxian's godson, was standing in front of Zhou Yingqiu at this moment, and said with an uneasy expression: "Dad, what is going on with Master Cui, why did he suddenly resign?" Is it a godfather, or the emperor, no, something will happen, right? ”
Zhou Yingqiu sat on the chair, his expression changed endlessly, he suddenly stood up and said, "I'll go to the celebrant and see your grandfather." ”
Just a few steps, he turned to look at his son again, and said, "You go to Zhou Zhengyun, or Zhou Hengping, and get closer to them." ”
His son immediately understood, and said with a deep face: "Yes, the child knows." ”
This is to bet on both sides, leaving the way back.
Zhou Yingqiu didn't say much, and left the mansion quickly.
Zhou Yingqiu is still like this, others can imagine.
The yamen of the Ministry of Officials, the class room of the Shangshu.
Wu Chunfu had just arrived here a few days ago, sitting on a chair, and when he heard the news of Cui Chengxiu's resignation, he looked stunned and speechless.
Cui Chengxiu, he has to be cautious, and he doesn't dare to clash head-on, and he was knocked down by that Zhou Zhengyun like this?
There was a principal standing in front of Wu Chunfu, he looked at Wu Chunfu's expression, and said in a low voice: "My lord, there is news that it is the Duke of Wei, who was also in the Qianqing Palace at that time, and the emperor refused to let Cui Shangshu go, and it was the Duke of Wei who persuaded the emperor to allow it." ”
Wu Chunfu frowned slightly, and then said: "Cui Chengxiu broke out so many bad things, if I were Duke Wei, I would do the same." ”
No matter how despicable and shameless he is outside, everyone in front of the emperor must be impartial and selfless, and put state affairs first in everything, Wei Zhongxian will definitely not open his mouth to retain his henchmen, so as not to leave a bad impression on the new emperor.
This is still a new emperor that no one knows the depths of!
Seeing Wu Chunfu say this, the chief didn't say much, and said: "My lord, now the outside is talking about Cui Shangshu's resignation, and Zhou Zhengyun's reputation in the clear stream soared into the sky, and I heard that many people are ready to raise Zhou Zhengyun's official position." ”
Wu Chunfu sneered and said, "They want to roast Zhou Zhengyun on the fire, because he didn't die fast enough!" ”
Zhou Zhengyun knocked down Cui Chengxiu, is this a victory? This is the way to die! When the courtiers find out the new emperor, as soon as the court situation is stable, the first person to die will be this Zhou Zhengyun!
Eunuchs, will tear him apart!
Now Qingliu still wants to raise him, how high he will die!
The principal said: "The villain also thinks so, it must be those people in the New Party who want to continue to test Duke Wei and test the emperor, and force Zhou Zhengyun to the front, it seems that Zhou Zhengyun is just a chess piece." ”
"It's a bunch of people who don't know whether to live or die,"
Wu Chunfu leaned on the chair, the corners of his mouth suddenly hooked up a smile, and said: "Since they all want to push, then I will also push, you go and release the news, just say that I am going to recommend Zhou Zhengyun to serve as the official department." ”
As soon as the director's eyes opened, he immediately smiled and said, "Yes, the villain will do it." ”
In the matter of the official department, it is the heaviest of the six departments, I don't know how many people have broken their heads for this, if they really want to release this news, Zhou Zheng will definitely become the target of public criticism!
Just when Wu Chunfu was about to push Zhou Zheng, there was a person who was suddenly promoted to the vacant secretary of the military department, Yan Mingtai.
This person has a rich resume, but he is very similar to Wang Huazhen, he is a wall-riding faction in Donglin, between the eunuchs, and he can grab the position of the secretary of the military department at this time, which is almost a tacit understanding between the new party and the eunuch party.
As soon as he took office, he said to his colleagues: "I often have an old relationship with Inspector Wang, so Zhou Zhengyun can be used, can he be a member of the military department?" ”
Probably speaking, it means that he has a relationship with Wang Zhichen, and he wants to promote Zhou Zheng to the military department as a foreign officer, and he is six products.
As soon as this sentence came out, it naturally filled the fire in the boiling sound.
Zhou Zheng fell in the face of Cui Chengxiu, and some unpredictable consequences were constantly emerging, he was put on a fire, in the raging fire, and there were constantly people desperately adding firewood below.
Seongnam, Han Cheng's mansion.
There happened to be a few people who came to visit Han Cheng, a few people sat down, put down the teacup, and an old man said with a smile: "Jinghu, your protégé is very good, the wind knows the strength of the grass, the Bandang knows the loyal minister, and at this time, he can also impeach the eunuch fearlessly, which can really be called the word 'loyal minister'." ”
Han Cheng didn't know what was going on outside, and he looked puzzled when he listened. His protégés, he has accepted two, and they are both people who are obsessed with reading, where does the word 'loyal minister' come from?
Fortunately, everyone has been friends for many years, and knowing that Han Cheng doesn't go out often, he said it simply.
After hearing this, Han Cheng smiled with a satisfied expression and said, "Zhou Zhengyun is not my protégé, but he has occasionally come to visit recently. It is indeed commendable that he can still have the courage to read at this time, uphold his beliefs, and disregard his death. ”
Everyone didn't expect that this was not Han Cheng's protégé, and one of them said: "Jinghu, you have been studying all your life, and you have never thought about becoming a scholar?" Even if you don't come out, don't you want to show your ambitions in your apprentices? ”
When this person's voice fell, Han Cheng was stunned, and he didn't know what to say for a while.
Scholars, who doesn't have a heart of 'the king of the world, open peace for all generations', just trapped in reality and can't do it.
Seeing that Han Cheng didn't speak, another person said: "Zhou Zhengyun's participation in Cui Chengxiu this time will inevitably lead to a big disaster." ”
Han Cheng frowned, looked up at a few people, and said, "Today I only talk about books, not people." ”
Everyone knew each other, and when they saw Han Cheng say this, they all smiled and agreed, but they knew in their hearts that Han Cheng should have some ideas in his heart.
When there was chaos outside, the Qianqing Palace was still quiet.
Zhu Youjian stood in front of the gate of the Qianqing Palace, watching Wei Zhongxian's back leave surrounded by more than 20 internal prisoners, with an expressionless face.
Zhou Qingli stood beside Zhu Youzhen, watching Wei Zhongxian still not change his past majesty, and secretly shook his head in his heart.
Zhu Youzhen's expression quickly became smiling, turned to Zhou Qingli, and said, "Mr. Zhou, what do you think?" ”
Zhou Qingli looked respectful, raised his hand and asked for sin: "Your Majesty forgive your sins!" Weichen's son has always been jealous and hateful, he can't control his hands, he really doesn't know the severity, and he talks about the court. After the minister returns, he will be strictly controlled, and he will no longer cause trouble to His Majesty, and I hope that Your Majesty will be gracious! ”
Zhu Youzhen was stunned, shook his head and said with a smile: "Zhou Zhengyun didn't do anything wrong, control what he does." What I ask is, do you think Eunuch Wei's words are true or false? ”
Zhou Qingli had already guessed Zhu Youzhen's intentions, so she thought for a while and said, "Weichen heard that Cui Shangshu and Eunuch Wei are very close, and Eunuch Wei is afraid that he will be reluctant. ”
Zhu Youzhen nodded thoughtfully, looked at Wei Zhongxian's disappearing back, did not speak again, his eyes flashed, and he widened slightly.
Zhou Qingli lowered her head and secretly exhaled in her heart.
Zhou Zheng's insistence on impeaching Cui Chengxiu is the most difficult, and the last thing he wants to see is the new emperor who has been forbearing, and now it seems that the new emperor doesn't care.
Zhou Zheng didn't know that Cui Chengxiu's resignation caused a huge shock inside and outside the Ming Dynasty, and he was still on his way to the edict.
Cui's family, Cui Chengli was guarded by He Qitu, and she couldn't get out, so she could only pass on the news through her subordinates, sort out his affairs, and prepare to leave Beijing with Cui Chengxiu.
Everything he has comes from this brother, if there is no Cui Chengxiu, he still stays in the capital, and there will be no bones left that will be swallowed!
"What do you say, two hundred thousand taels! That week, Zhengyun asked me to give him 200,000 taels, otherwise he wouldn't let me leave Beijing! Cui Chengli's eyes widened, and she was about to bulge out!
