Huang Chenghao sat in the carriage with a few certificates in his hand, his brows were deeply locked, and the weather was still a little cold, but his palms were already sweating.

He was really nervous at this moment, not that there was anything wrong with what was written on this manuscript paper, but mainly because Zhang Bin asked him to fool the emperor.

Zhang Bin did not hide in front of him his ambition to eliminate the remnants of the eunuch party and control the entire court, because if he did not tell him the goal, his important chess piece would not play its due role.

Wen Tiren, Qian Xiangkun, Xie Sheng, Zhang Zhifa, Xie Ma, Zhang Sizhi, etc., thinking of these remnants of the eunuch party, the bigwigs of the Zhejiang Party and the Qi Party, he felt furious in his heart, these people, he couldn't shake any of them, and now, Zhang Bin actually asked him to overturn all these people!

Bi Maokang, Cai Shanji, Zou Weilian, Chen Zizhuang, Ni Yuanlu, Qian Shijin, etc., these honest and honest ministers turned out to be really Zhang Bin's cronies, and this Zhang Bin did not hide it from him, because he wanted to use these people to replace the Zhejiang Party and the Qi Party and control the entire court!

All this has exceeded his imagination, and Zhang Bin's game of chess is too big, too shocking!

Zhang Bin also told him that this overall action is to vote for his name, if he can pass this test, he can really enter his core camp, and the implication is that he also understands that if he doesn't do a good job this time, he is likely to be ruthlessly cleaned up, because the ironclad evidence of his collaboration with the enemy and treason is still in Zhang Bin's hands.

He is very good at fooling the emperor, but this time Zhang Bin asked him to fool the emperor's content is too shocking and sensitive, and if he is not careful, he will provoke the emperor's anger.

He was nervously thinking about the matter of fooling the emperor, the six departments outside the noon gate had arrived, they were all here, no matter how nervous they were, he took a deep breath, calmed down his nervousness, and then resolutely jumped out of the carriage and walked towards the Qianqing Palace with firm steps.

Although Chongzhen is suspicious by nature, he has not given trust, like the first year of Chongzhen to the third year of Chongzhen, he trusted the remnants of Donglin very much, Chongzhen four years later, he has always trusted Wen Tiren, no matter how others "slander", he has always firmly trusted this traitor, but unfortunately, in history, Chongzhen has not met such a powerful minister like Li Dongyang and Zhang Juzheng who is worthy of his trust, if there is, Chongzhen may not become the king of the country.

The reality is so cruel, around him are basically traitors who only know how to fight for power and profit, and completely ignore the survival of the Ming Dynasty, because of this, he will pay trust again and again, and be disappointed again and again, so that he has changed more than 50 cabinet scholars within 17 years, and the cabinet chief assistant has also been replaced by him more than 10!

At this time, he was already faintly suspicious of Wen Tiren, and he trusted Huang Chenghao more and more, because Wang Yingxiong said that Huang Chenghao peeked into the position of the secretary of the ministry and tried to enter the cabinet as the prime minister, but after Wang Yingxiong was cleaned up by him, Huang Chenghao did not show any idea of entering the cabinet as the prime minister, and the newly appointed secretary Xue Guoguan had nothing to do with him, which is enough to prove that the reason why Huang Chenghao went to check Wang Yingxiong was completely because Wang Yingxiong had a problem, and Huang Chenghao himself had no other ideas.

Of course, even if he trusts Huang Chenghao again, Huang Chenghao will not be able to become the first assistant of the cabinet, and it is unlikely that he will even enter the cabinet as the prime minister, because he only wants Huang Chenghao to supervise the hundred officials for him.

At this time, he was still quite happy to hear that Huang Chenghao came to ask for a meeting, because this time the court pushed him to make him quite unhappy, he always felt that the ministers were united to deceive him and even empty him, and now he hoped that Huang Chenghao would find out a few corrupt officials for him, punish them well, and deter and deter the ministers.

Huang Chenghao really found out a big corrupt official again, and after the monarch and the minister saw him, he presented a few evidences, but this corrupt official did surprise him a little, it turned out to be Zhang Sizhi, the secretary of the Criminal Department, can such a chief official of the Qingshui Yamen be greedy for so much silver?

He was slightly surprised: "This Zhang Sizhi is really greedy for so much silver?" ”

Huang Chenghao didn't know, but he believed Zhang Bin, because Zhang Bin's shot had never failed, he nodded firmly: "Back to the emperor, yes, Zhang Sizhi is indeed greedy for so much silver, but Weichen has not found conclusive evidence." ”

Chongzhen is so strange, why did you submit it without finding conclusive evidence, do you want me to clean up a second-grade court minister just based on this string of numbers, this is too child's play!

He was a little embarrassed: "Bingzhong, without conclusive evidence, it is not easy for me to make an order to take down Zhang Sizhi, after all, he is the sixth Shangshu." ”

Bingzhong is Huang Chenghao's word, generally called the word courtier, which means that Chongzhen has a lot of trust in this courtier, Huang Chenghao heard this, flattered and said: "Your Majesty, Weichen knows that Weichen is not here for Zhang Sizhi's corruption, there is no conclusive evidence that Weichen can let people continue to investigate, but when Zhang Sizhi was checked, Weichen found a more serious problem, so he had to dare to ask to see the emperor." ”

A Shangshu's corruption of hundreds of thousands of taels is not serious, there are even more serious problems, how serious is that?

Chongzhen couldn't help asking, "What's the problem?" ”

At this time, Huang Chenghao twisted, he swallowed: "Your Majesty, Weichen has not found any conclusive evidence in this matter, if what Weichen said is not right, Weichen is bold, please don't be angry." ”

Chongzhen was in such a hurry, he was most afraid of people swallowing and spitting out his appetite, but Huang Chenghao was born to hang his appetite at this time, he couldn't help urging: "You said, Yanchen Feng is not guilty of hearing about it, how can I be angry, even if what you say is wrong, I won't be angry." ”

When Huang Chenghao heard this, he plucked up the courage and said: "Your Majesty, Weichen has the courage to ask, you should be clear about the party struggle of the Wanli, Taichang, and Tianqi dynasties, right?" ”

When Chongzhen heard the word "party struggle", his face couldn't help but change greatly: "The party fights for the country, how could I not know, if it weren't for the party struggle of the Wanli, Taichang, and Tianqi dynasties, how could Daming be tossed into this appearance!" ”

Huang Chenghao pretended to be distressed and said: "Yes, the party fights for the country, especially the party struggle of the Tianqi Dynasty, the Qichu and Zhejiang parties did not hesitate to cooperate with the traitor Wei Zhongxian in order to defeat Donglin, and formed a huge and unprecedented eunuch party, which controlled the government in one fell swoop, and almost fell into a catastrophe from which the Ming Dynasty could not recover. ”

This is worn thousands of times, and the sycophants are not worn, Chongzhen is still quite useful for this sycophant, but at this time, he is already anxious, how can he be in the mood to enjoy this sycophant, the party fights, but it is enough to destroy the country, if there is a private party like the eunuch party, controlling the government and doing nonsense, then the Ming Dynasty is really dangerous.

He couldn't help but shake his head and said anxiously: "Okay, don't talk about these useless things, what did you find?" ”

Huang Chenghao pretended to look at death as home, and said solemnly: "Your Majesty, that Weichen has the courage to say, now, although Donglin has been slaughtered by Wei Eunuch, and the eunuch party seems to have disappeared, but the remnants of the eunuch party have been trying in vain to control the government, and they are about to succeed!" “

"Ahh , How is it possible, why didn't he feel it, Chongzhen couldn't help but exclaim: "It's impossible!" ”

Huang Chenghao still looked like he was at home, and said word by word: "Wang Yongguang, the former secretary of the Ministry of Justice, a native of Dongming, Shandong, Min Hongxue, a native of Wucheng, Zhejiang, a native of Min Mengde, a native of Wucheng, Zhejiang, a native of Tang Shiji, a native of Wucheng, Zhejiang, a native of Wucheng, a native of Zhejiang, a native of Jiaxing, Zhejiang, a native of Jiaxing, a native of Fujian, a native of Taizhou, Zhejiang, and a native of Taizhou, Zhejiang, these people have proven to be the remnants of the eunuch party, and the Qichu and Zhejiang parties are the main body of the eunuch party, and the Chu party has declined because of internal strife, the Qi Party and the Zhejiang Party have always been strong, and these people are the Qi Party and the Zhejiang Party. “

When Chongzhen heard this, he said inexplicably: "Aren't these people already ambushed?" ”

Huang Chenghao nodded and said: "Yes, these people have already been ambushed, but how did these people climb to a high position and become important ministers of the imperial court, Weichen has always been very strange, this time, Weichen tracked down Zhang Sizhi and finally found the reason." ”

Chongzhen was in a hurry, and hurriedly asked, "What is the reason?" ”

Huang Chenghao pretended to look like death again, and said word by word: "The current cabinet chief assistant Wen Tiren, a native of Wucheng, Zhejiang; Qian Xiangkun, the second assistant of the current cabinet, is an auditor of Zhejiang; Xie Sheng, the current secretary of the Cabinet University Scholar Department, is a native of Dezhou, Shandong; Zhang Zhifa, the left waiter of the current Cabinet University Priest Department, is a native of Zichuan, Shandong; Xie Majesty, the current secretary of the Ministry of Industry, is a native of Dezhou, Shandong; Zhang Sizhi, the current secretary of the Criminal Department, is a native of Fei County, Shandong; The original Ministry of Officials and the Ministry of War have always been controlled by them, and the current Ministry of Officials Xue Guoguan and Zhang Fengyi, the Secretary of the Ministry of War, were also elected by them, and the original Metropolitan Procuratorate was also controlled by Tang Shiji of the Zhejiang Party; Only the household department, Lao Shangshu is strict, the four dynasties are famous, and they are highly respected, they tried their best to return the old man to his hometown, fortunately, Lao Shangshu recommended Cao Jue to the emperor, otherwise, all the important yamen in the court, including the cabinet, were controlled by the Zhejiang Party and the Qi Party! There are also Taichang Temple, Taifu Temple, Tongzheng Department and other yamen, and the Zhejiang Party is also full of them, and these micro-ministers will not be listed one by one, and the emperor will understand it after a little check. Your Majesty, Weichen risked his life to meet him, just for this matter! What the emperor and Weichen want to say is that since Chongzhen has been three years old, almost the entire court has been controlled by the remnants of the eunuch party! “

When Chongzhen heard this, he was stunned on the spot, his face had become extremely ugly, he really hadn't paid attention to these, but these were ironclad facts!

He really didn't want to believe that most of the ministers and the six Shangshu he valued were the remnants of the eunuch party, if this was the case, wouldn't he be as stupid as a pig!

He was stunned for a long time before he tried to justify his stupidity: "This, you can't just say that they are from Zhejiang and Shandong because they happen to be from Zhejiang, right?" ”

Huang Chengyan seemed to be out of the way, and said without fear: "Your Majesty, Weichen is courageous, the old boss of Weichen, the Imperial History of the Left Capital of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, the reason why Lord Cao Yu Biancao returned to his hometown is because he was falsely accused of being the head of the Western Party!" There are also court officials such as Cheng Qinan, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry from Shanxi, Sun Juxiang, the right attendant of the household department, and Wei Guangxu, the Zhengqing of Taifu Temple, all of whom were later dismissed. Other people's Weichen didn't dare to comment on themselves, but Weichen could take the head guarantee of the item, Cao Yubian and Lord Cao absolutely did not form a party for personal gain, Cheng Qinan, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, Sun Juxiang, the right attendant of the Ministry of Households, and Wei Guangxu, the Zhengqing of the Taifu Temple, had nothing to do with Lord Cao at all, and the head of the Western Party was purely fabricated out of thin air, making something out of nothing! However, Lord Cao just returned to his hometown because of this, and Cheng Qinan, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, Sun Juxiang, the right servant of the Ministry of Households, and Wei Guangxu, the Zhengqing of the Taifu Temple, were also dismissed one after another, which was purely a conspiracy of the remnants of the eunuch party. They can put all the Shanxi officials together and falsely accuse them of the Western Party, why can't they be the Zhejiang Party and the Qi Party? “

When Chongzhen heard this, his face became even more ugly, when he forced Cao Yubian to retreat and dismissed Cheng Qinan, Sun Juxiang, Wei Guangxu and other court officials, wasn't it because he listened to Wen Tiren's slander and said that they were all from Shanxi, so what kind of Western Party, now that I think about it, was there evidence at that time? There is no evidence at all, just because they are all officials from Shanxi!

He really didn't have the face to say this question, he thought about it, and defended himself again: "This, they were all promoted because of their outstanding talents and outstanding political achievements, can't they be said to be party-run because they are from Zhejiang and Shandong?" ”

Huang Chengyan was really open-minded, he still said without fear: "Your Majesty, Wechen is bold, this is the reason why Wechen suspects them, Wechen has checked Zhang Sizhi's resume, and his resume is simply ridiculous!" He was the forty-fourth in the top three in the Renxu Kedian Examination, but he was selected as a Shuji Shi and entered the Hanlin Academy! He was promoted to the sixth grade of Zhan Shifu Zuo Zhongyun as soon as he came out of the Hanlin Academy in the fifth year of the Apocalypse, and he was promoted to the fifth grade of the rite department of the Qing official Shilang in the sixth year of the Apocalypse, and he was promoted to the fourth grade of the national prince from the seventh year of the Apocalypse to the third year of Chongzhen, and the emperor of Chongzhen was appointed to the eunuch against the party, he did not move, but, in the fourth year of Chongzhen, Wen Tiren had just taken power, and he was promoted to the right servant of the criminal department of the third product for no reason, the seventh year of the Apocalypse, the great plan of Jingcha, He was also promoted to the secretary of the criminal department without any merits! Your Majesty, it has been less than ten years since he came out of the Hanlin Academy, all the way from the seventh-grade Hanlin Academy to the second-grade criminal department Shangshu, there is no merit at all, and there is no merit to be rewarded, isn't this the usual trick of the eunuch party, if he is not the Qi party, how can he rise so fast! “

When Chongzhen heard this, his face turned from white to red, he slapped his face, slapped his face, he just said that these people were promoted because of their outstanding talents and outstanding political achievements, Huang Chengyan immediately slapped Zhang Sizhi's resume in the face, this is really .......
