508. The situation deteriorated again
If you are prepared for the worst, you will not be afraid of the worst of the reality, this is the law of facing the reality that I have always adhered to.
Yesterday in the court, I fought against the little emperor and his lackeys, and finally with the help of Shoufu Shen Shixing, Shangshu Shi Xing of the Ministry of War, and Yuan Zipeng, the squire of the Ministry of War, I kept a temporary peace, but it also left a deep hidden danger.
Will the little emperor let me go because of this? Absolutely not! He'll only hate me more for it!
Because he is such a small-bellied person, he will definitely come up with one way or another to deal with me, disgust me, until he takes me down.
So I was preparing for the evacuation while preparing for the worst.
Sure enough, on the day of the beginning of Xia, I got a very bad news through the first assistant Shen Shixing - more than 80 Beijing officials jointly filed a lawsuit against the emperor, saying that I was going around promoting the reform ideas of the former first assistant Zhang Juzheng, slandering the imperial court, and insulting the emperor.
I don't care too much about who they are, because it doesn't matter who it is, it's nothing more than the little emperor Zhu Yijun picking up chicken feathers and dusting his headers, picking out a wave of garbage to disgust me.
The matter was referred to the Inspectorate. Because of Wang Senke's previous incident, the Inspectorate is now secretive about me, and he is very jealous when he talks about it, and he is even more careful when he tries it.
You don't see that Wang Senke, a member of the Sanpin, can be swept to the end, cut off his post for the people, and confiscated all his family property - it is said that this is the result of His Majesty's special kindness, otherwise he would not be able to run away from fifty strokes and three thousand miles.
In such a context, no one dares to brush the tiger's whiskers again and risk the world's condemnation to hack me. Therefore, during the trial, there was one thing to say and two to say two, neither more nor less.
So after making a fuss like this for half a month, he finally handed the little emperor in the inner courtyard of the deep palace a fold, which generally means that Sun Qilan's formation of a party for personal gain and slander of the court are not clear in facts and insufficient evidence, which is unwarranted.
It is said that the little emperor Zhu Yijun directly lifted the table on the spot in the harem, and also went to the queen mother for this matter to secretly discuss the matter of dealing with me.
If you want me to say, the queen mother's husband died early and the children were young, and everything depended on the second uncle to make decisions, so she begged the second uncle for everything. But later it was found that the second uncle was disobedient, but made demands to the emperor everywhere and set rules for the royal family, which was even worse for the queen mother's father to make money through military logistics, so he hated the second uncle because of love.
By now, the child has full fledgling, and she herself is even more accurate in the harem, and she has completely disregarded me, the "descendant of Zhang Jiangling", although I have made great achievements on the front line, but in the eyes of this woman's family, the huge territory of the Ming Dynasty, let alone winning this war, even if it loses? The emperor is still the emperor, the queen mother is still the queen mother, the court is still the court, the sky can't be turned upside down!
In her narrow perspective, there is no such thing as a change of dynasty, isn't everyone the emperor like this?
As long as there are two ministers below, they can grasp those major things that delay the country, and as for those small things, they will not affect the overall situation!
So she gave the little emperor a bad trick - let people go to "my" hometown of Shandong to collect the anti-court words I said back then, and the disrespectful words and behaviors above it.
This can be said to be a despicable and shameless plan, after all, I haven't been to that village back then, and I don't know who some people are, and the "family" has all moved out.
Who are the rest? If you want to get it with your toes, you must be jealous and red-eyed, you will fall into the well, you will be silent, and you will fan the flames.
Under the influence of Jinyiwei and his gang, I quickly compiled a thick pile of crimes!
Soon, without my knowledge, these "crimes" were sent to Dali Temple, Honglu Temple, and the Criminal Department, and the three halls were tried to review the truth.
I got the news from Qi Changguo, the third son of the governor of Qi, who is currently the commander of the Jinyi Guard, the governor of the Governor's Mansion and the general of the hussars.
Originally, the matter of hearing me was avoided by the Qi family. But there is no impermeable wall in this world, plus Qi Changguo has the heart to inquire, and he soon got some outrageous information!
The specific situation mostly comes from a secret letter he wrote to me!
The letter says:
Qilan's brother, the day before yesterday, I went back to my hometown in Shandong to visit my father, and the old man once said: "Qilan is dedicated to the country, but because of the old things, most of them are not allowed by the saints, you and other brothers should do their best to take care of it!" ”
For my brother to remember his father's teachings, I have inquired about you this time, the situation is very bad, and I am very worried!
It is reported that the Holy Lord ordered someone to return to your hometown in Shandong to collect your remarks about the imperial court and slander the royal family in many ways, although most of them are rumors, but he has ordered someone to compile a book, and is ready to use this as evidence to collect your accusations in Beijing and the surrounding areas.
In addition, I heard that the descendants of Kong Shangxian of the Confucian family in Shandong and the descendants of Xue Bian of the Xue family have written to report to you, saying that you are in the fish and meat township and dominate one side, and there are many evil acts of poisoning and virtuousness!
In addition, to name a few, Qilan you are a big move, but I'm afraid that this time it is not in vain to argue!
According to the foolish brother's opinion, since my father entrusted you with the rejuvenation of the country, he hoped that he would follow you away and fly away, and not fall into the hands of the villains in the court! You have the talent to go through the heavens and latitudes, when the sea is really wide and the sky is high and the birds can fly, why should you stoop to live here and be excluded and beaten everywhere?
By the time you receive this letter, most of the above things are already in place, and there is only one opportunity left for the whole thing to explode!
The heroes of Qilan will not be vague and vague, so that they miss the big thing!
As the saying goes, when the judgment continues, it will be chaotic, the foolish brother is all he says, Brother Qilan take care!
The letter is not long, but it is full of concern and regret for me. I also understand his concern, but the biggest question at the moment is, am I really worthy of my original intention of returning to China like this?
There is another point, the old man Li Zaixing's body has just seen some improvement under the drug recuperation, if we leave now, the boat is tired, and Xiaoxing sleeps overnight, I am afraid that when we get to the beach, the old man will have to explain on the boat immediately!
So I had to grit my teeth and delay as much time as I could.
The doctors also said that the old man's body is recovering, and if there is another month, when he can consolidate his foundation, his physical condition will go to a higher level!
Hua Mei and Kite were teary-eyed, and repeatedly begged me to find a way to buy my father more time.
Why wouldn't I? To be honest, my hair has turned a lot gray because of this!
How to delay time? After thinking about it, I can't passively sit still, I must take the initiative!
During this time, I continued to write about my views on the development of Dongying, my thoughts on the strategy of Hideyoshi Hashiba in the later period, the relationship between the development of Goryeo and the Ming Dynasty, and the ambitions of the Tatars.
All in all, what can be written, valuable, and can delay time, I tried my best to write it out, and did everything I could to send it into the hands of the little emperor Zhu Yijun!
The purpose is to make him feel that I am still valuable, in other words, even if it is inevitable to defeat me, it should not be something that must be done at the moment. Maybe...... You can delay it for a while!
My tactics were so successful that, according to Shoufu Shen Shixing, the emperor summoned him to the palace on several occasions to discuss the extravagant and whimsical twists and turns of what I had written.
It is said that the emperor has said many times: If Sun Qilan is not a descendant of Zhang Juzheng, why can't he be used by me?
Shen Shixing also advised the emperor many times, hoping that he could give up his prejudices and let useful people really shine.
But it's a pity that the little emperor has been carried away by hatred, and all he wants is to squeeze out my last remaining value, and then wipe me and my comrades away!
Time to see that in midsummer, the old man's body finally got better. And after my unremitting efforts, the little emperor Zhu Yijun's attitude towards me has also eased slightly.
Therefore, I found the timing of the Queen Mother's birthday, wrote a letter to the little emperor, and sent my father-in-law Li Zaixing back to his hometown in Hangzhou to recuperate.
In order for this plan to succeed, I also specially asked people to give the Queen Mother eight pairs of the best Western jewelry, according to the market price of the Ming Dynasty, the value is only more than 30,000 taels of silver!
The short-sighted woman was moved, and she approved the approval of her father-in-law Li Zaixing to return to Hangzhou to recuperate, but the condition was that there must be filial piety every quarter in the future, and it could not be the same!
What does that mean to me?
To put it bluntly, these things are not worth much at all in the country of origin, but they are really worth a lot if you add the shipping costs.
It's a pity that for me, the most worthless thing is money, as long as the elderly and children in the family are safe and sound, spend some money, no matter how much money you spend, what is it?
The old man sent him away, Hua Mei accompanied him, and the kite was supposed to accompany him, but the old man was worried that everyone around me would take care of it, which was very inconvenient.
So he said a thousand things, and decided to let the kite accompany me to stay in Jingshi and find an opportunity to evacuate from Beijing.
I naturally don't have anything else to say, my father-in-law is righteous, and I naturally keep it in mind. And the most important thing to hand over to the nine ghosts is to find an opportunity to give priority to sending the old man and Hua Mei overseas!
As long as they are gone, the great Ming Dynasty will be left with me and the kite, and when the time comes, will it not be possible to advance or retreat, attack or defend?
However, things were not as simple as I imagined, and on the third day after my father-in-law left, the relationship with the royal family, which had been eased, deteriorated again, and all the preparations that had been made against me broke out on this day!
It is said that the reason for this is that someone said to the Queen Mother, "These jewels he gave you are fakes and are not worth anything at all"!
A lie is enough to subvert the will of the supreme ruler of this country, how promising the country is!
However, this is not something I should be thinking about. After receiving the news, I immediately asked the Nine Ghosts Zhengxiao to personally lead people to chase the old man, and be sure to leave the old man from the port near Yantai and leave Daming before the imperial court chases the soldiers!
As for myself, I was ready for all of this today!
Let me make one last effort for the revival of the Ming Dynasty!
