Xie Qian used to be the one who could speak well among the three ministers, and he had a very good sense of understanding, and his performance made several other important ministers admire him even more. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Xie Qian is not a god, he can guess that the matter is related to the prince, not that he can pinch and calculate, but that Jin Gui visited his house when he was on sick leave before, and told him what Shen Xi had told him before parting, as well as the fact that he had given books and gadgets to the palace several times.

This is Jin Gui's desire to protect himself and use Xie Qian's power.

As we all know, Xie Qian and Shen Xi have an in-law relationship, and this matter is about to happen, Jin Gui has no way to ask for help, and he is forced to see Xie Qian purely helplessly.

After Xie Qian learned about it, he knew that the Zhang brothers had been wronged, and it turned out that the gadgets such as Ben and shadow puppet play were all sent to the capital by Shen Xi people in the three southeastern provinces, across thousands of mountains and rivers.

Xie Qian scolded Shen Xi for messing around, but he was thinking in his heart: "You kid can, I understand the importance of managing a good relationship with the prince, people in Lingnan, actually mingle with the prince, now I am your backer, you are good under the big tree, maybe the prince will ascend the throne in the future, little old man, I still want you to support me?" ”

Zhu Youzhu said angrily: "I was also negligent in disciplining the prince, so I ordered him to abandon his studies and just want to have fun every day, cough cough...... Today he found this letter under his bed, and look at it! And such an unspeakable thing? ”

As he spoke, Zhu Youzhu slapped a letter on the table in front of him with a "snap", which startled the five ministers present.

Xiao Jing, the eunuch of Bingbi, picked up the letter respectfully and sent it to Liu Jian, the first assistant, after Liu Jian read it, his face was a little more gloomy, and then the letter passed through the hands of Li Dongyang, Ma Wensheng, Xie Qian and Liu Daxia in turn, and then several important ministers finally knew why the emperor was so angry.

Because the matter is not the crown prince alone, but also related to another person, this person is the commander of the three southeastern provinces personally appointed by the emperor before, the military affairs and the right deputy capital Yushi Shenxi.

There is nothing more absurd in the world than this, the prince actually wanted to run away from home, and he wrote a letter to inform Shen Xi in advance that he was going to leave the capital to "defect" him?!

Several ministers realized that the emperor must now regard Shen Xi as the initiator, and calling them here must be to convict Shen Xi for instigating the prince to leave the palace.

The three cabinet scholars are all the emperor's mentors and advisors, Ma Wensheng is in charge of the Ministry of Officials, who is responsible for employing people, and Liu Daxia is the secretary of the Ministry of War and has some understanding of the bandit situation on the southeast coast, which shows that although the emperor is angry, he still has not lost his mind, and even if he wants to convict Shen Xi, he must first listen to the opinions of all parties.

Xie Qian had already sweated for Shen Xi at this time.

Now among the people who have come are the people from the Metropolitan Procuratorate, the Criminal Department, and the Dali Temple, which is at least a good signal...... The emperor is now only thinking about whether to dismiss Shen Xi, but not about putting Shen Xi in prison. But who knows if the emperor has secretly mobilized the factory guards to go to Guangdong to get people?

The Son of Heaven was angry, and everyone didn't dare to speak casually, Liu Jian, as the most virtuous and respected person present, saluted and asked, "I don't know what Your Majesty wants?" ”

Zhu Youzhu said angrily: "I want to listen to the listeners first. ”

Li Dongyang said: "The prince is fourteen years old after the New Year, and he has been out of the cabinet to lecture for six years. However, Shen Xi, the lecturer of the East Palace, had the emperor's grace and instigated the prince to go out of the palace to Guangdong, putting the prince in danger, putting the Ming Dynasty in danger, and the crime was unforgivable. But remembering his youth and ignorance, His Majesty dismissed him from his post and questioned him, and at the same time ordered the lecturers of the East Palace to step up the supervision of the prince's studies, which was the right way! ”

Li Dongyang said this completely in anger, at the beginning of the year, he wanted to make a big fuss about martial arts novels, so that the emperor would supervise the prince's studies more, but the emperor himself was also obsessed with martial arts novels, plus it was rumored that the novel sent by Zhang's relatives entered the palace, and even Li Dongyang couldn't fight head-on with Zhang's relatives, so the matter was over.

Now that the prince has disappeared again and is preparing to go south to Shen Xi, and Shen Xi is a clever offspring in his eyes, he can't help but want to punish Shen Xi.

Persimmon still has to pick soft pinch.

To say that Li Dongyang can be regarded as an open-minded person, he is also a person who is very easy to hold grudges.

Shen Xi deliberately changed his handwriting in the 12th year of Hongzhi's palace examination, and finally made the hall examination examiners unable to judge the handwriting, so that Shen Xi picked up a champion and went back, which made Li Dongyang angry.

Two years ago, Li Dongyang's eldest son fell ill, Xie Qian asked Shen Xi to help diagnose the disease and use medicine, although his son's condition temporarily improved, but then he hesitated to use medicine intermittently, and finally died of a long illness.

Xie Qian has been calling for wind and rain in the DPRK in the past two years, Li Dongyang and Xie Qian are good friends, Xie Qian always praised Shen Xi's ability in front of him, which made Li Dongyang feel that Xie Qian was suspected of cronyism, and he himself had the intention of retreating, so in order to prevent his old friends from reusing the future life, he spared no effort to suppress Shen Xi.

happened when the prince was about to leave the palace and defect to Shen Xi, Li Dongyang was angry from his heart, regardless of the disparity in identity and status with Shen Xi, and ruthlessly trampled on Shen Xi.

Among the other ministers, although Xie Qian felt that Shen Xi was messing around, he was completely helping his relatives and not helping him, this was Xie Qian's willfulness, not to mention that there is no evidence that the prince's departure from the palace was instigated by Shen Xi, even if it can be proven, Xie Qian does not want to see his grandson-in-law suffer.

As for Ma Wensheng and Liu Daxia, they both cherish Shen Xi's talent and ability, and Liu Daxia feels ashamed that Shen Xi has made meritorious contributions in the First Battle of the Northwest and cannot be rewarded and knighted.

As for Liu Jian, he has no interest in Shen Xi, and he is relatively fairer. But Liu Jian has always been loyal to the royal family, and what Li Dongyang said is not wrong in principle, so Liu Jian tends to support Li Dongyang and punish Shen Xi.

Li Dongyang's words made Zhu Youzhi nod, Zhu Youzhi values his son the most in his life, Shen Xi used to teach the prince to play, from the monarch's point of view, he forgave Shen Xi's behavior, but this time the prince left the palace to go to Shen Xi, but he couldn't tolerate it.

Zhu Youzhu said: "The lecturer of the East Palace must be a model of dedication to his duties, and Shen Yude's move is really a negative trust in him!" ”

Xiao Jing next to him hurriedly reminded Zhu Youzhu in a low voice: "Your Majesty, it's Shen Shuzi." ”

It was very unseemly for the emperor to say that the official position of the minister was wrong, and Zhu Youzhi had also reminded the eunuch before that if he made any mistake in principle, the eunuch should immediately speak out to correct it.

Xiao Jing said this, Zhu Youzhu realized that Shen Xi was promoted from Hanlin Xiu, Zhan Shifu Right Zhongyun, Right Yude, and then to the right concubine, the speed of promotion was unprecedented, and the right concubine was appointed as the right deputy capital Yushi to transfer the southeast bandits, as if Shen Xi was so "bold" and dared to instigate his son to leave the palace, which he connived.

Zhu Youzhi had a look of shame on his face, and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, what do you have any opinions?" ”

Ma Wensheng came out and said: "Your Majesty, since Shen Shuzi entered the East Palace to give lectures, he has been diligent and diligent, and his results in the evaluation of the Zhan Mansion and the Ministry of Officials are also among the best, and now he has also made outstanding achievements in the southeast coastal bandits, so ...... Conviction is inappropriate, I am afraid. Please also think twice, Your Majesty. ”

Zhu Youji is a king who likes to listen to other people's opinions and is often swayed by other people's opinions.

He thought about it carefully, but no, Shen Xi's official was promoted by him, but the problem was that every time Shen Xi was promoted, he adhered to the principle that meritorious service must be rewarded.

Shen Xi's official promotion was fast, and he deliberately pressed it, with Shen Xi's military exploits in Quanzhou, Yulinwei and Guangdong, even if Shen Xi was transferred back to the capital to serve as a squire of the six departments, it would not be an exaggeration to transfer Shen Xi back to the capital, and if he did not receive a reward, he would be punished for his minor mistakes, who would do his best for the court in the future?

Seeing that the emperor hesitated, Liu Daxia hurriedly stood up to help Shen Xi speak: "Your Majesty, there was an official letter to Beijing in the southeast at the beginning of the year, and the army was scheduled to start in March. ”

When Zhu Youzhu heard this, he felt even more conflicted.

Now Shen Xi is no longer just a powerless East Palace speaker, but a feudal official who holds the military power of the three southeastern provinces, not to mention whether Shen Xi dares to rebel after being replaced, let's just say that now Shen Xi is leading troops to quell bandits, temporarily removing the commander, who can take on such a big responsibility? The matter of planning two years in advance and mobilizing a large amount of money, food and materials to suppress bandits will not be over?

Zhu Youzhu thought to himself: "I am also indignant for a while, and I want to cure Shen Xi's crimes, but now I want to come, but I can't punish them." But the previous words were also spoken, Scholar Li and Scholar Liu are on my side, how to go down the steps? ”

Zhu Youzhi had already realized at this time that Shen Xi could not be removed for the time being, firstly, Shen Xi's merits were big and his faults were small, and the punishment of the crime was completely trivial; Second, Shen Xizheng is leading the troops to level the bandits, and they cannot be replaced for the time being.

When he was in a dilemma, Zhu Youzhu glanced at Xie Qian, and then he thought that Xie Qian, who had always been very good, didn't speak at this time. Zhu Youzhu said: "Xie Qingjia, you have always been resourceful, what do you think about this matter?" ”

Xie Qian is the most inappropriate to speak at this moment, because he has an in-law relationship with Shen Xi, and the ministers of the DPRK and China know how to avoid taboos when they are concerned about their own lives.

However, the emperor inquired in person, Xie Qian couldn't help but say, under the eyes of the emperor and his colleagues, he said hesitantly: "Your Majesty, the old minister and Shen Xi'er are ...... In-laws, I'm afraid it's inappropriate. ”

After Xie Qian's words, the emperor remembered that there was such a thing, only Shen Xi's in-laws and grandfathers could call him "Shen Xi Xiaoer", also because Xie Qian is now Shen Xi's elder.

Zhu Youzhu nodded slightly: "It's about Guozuo, but it doesn't hurt you to say it." ”

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Xie Qian's face was very hesitant, and finally said in embarrassment, "Your Majesty, it's not that the old minister has to speak for Shen Xi, but ...... The prince went out of the palace to Fujian and Guangdong to find his old teacher, and the old minister was puzzled...... Shen Xi'er is far away in Fujian and Guangdong, have you ever known? ”

Zhu Youzhu thought about it, and this made sense.

It was wishful thinking for his son to go to Shen Xi, but now he found a letter from his son to Shen Xi, but Shen Xi didn't write a letter to say, prince, don't stay in the palace, come to me and I will cover you.

Don't say you didn't find it, Shen Xi, as a minister, wrote this kind of letter to find death. Even Li Dongyang, who had opinions about Shen Xi, didn't think that Shen Xi would be stupid enough to write such a letter.

Xie Qian continued: "Shen Xi used to be the prince's teacher, and the prince was usually stubborn, or fell in love because he was the same age as Shen Xi...... The prince has lived in the palace for a long time, and as he gets older, he wants to see outside the palace, which is also a model of benevolence. The prince thinks of his old teacher, doesn't this just show that Shen Xi is not at fault in teaching the prince? (To be continued.) )
