Volume 8 Chapter 157 Chongzhen's Means
Chongzhen is easy to be fooled, but he is not an idiot, at first he was stunned by Xue Guoguan's prepared manuscript in advance, but Xue Guoguan was perfunctory at the beginning, and he immediately reacted.
This guy always pulls everything on Zhang Bin, is it Zhang Bin who sells officials, is Zhang Bin doing corruption, if you want to say that Zhang Bin has other bad words, Chongzhen may believe it, but Chongzhen will not believe corruption, because Zhang Bin has a means to get money, I don't know how many big merchants are lining up to donate money to Zhang Bin, corruption, is it necessary?
Chongzhen has already reacted, Xue Guoguan doesn't shed tears when he doesn't see the coffin, and he still wants to play tricks on him!
Okay, if you want to play me, I'll play you.
He picked up a copy of the fold and glanced at it casually, then slowed down and pretended to be comforted: "It seems that I am wrong to blame you, Zhang Bin is really cunning, and he dares to fool me with these things, by the way, did Wu Tiance, the governor of Ruzhou, give 20,000 taels or 200,000 taels at the beginning?" ”
Two hundred thousand taels? How is it possible, a prefect doesn't need 200,000 taels!
Wu Tiance, the governor of Ruzhou, had a little impression that it should be 20,000 taels, Xue Guoguan subconsciously replied: "It's 20,000 taels, not 200,000 taels." ”
Chongzhen's face turned green when he heard this, okay, you are really playing tricks, he was so angry that he picked up the stack of music on the table and smashed it on Xue Guoguan, pointed at this guy and roared: "Look at the good things you did!" ”
Xue Guoguan trembled when he was smashed by the song, Chongzhen roared again, he finally reacted, it's over, he said that he leaked his mouth!
He picked up a copy of the book with trembling hands, unfolded it and looked at it, and suddenly his face changed greatly, who is this, he actually found out everything about his selling of officials, and even the amount of money he received was not bad at all!
I don't need to watch the rest of the twists and turns, I can't be wrong, and the matter of his betrayal of his official position has been exposed.
For a while, he didn't know how to justify, so he was stunned with the fold, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
Chongzhen looked at Xue Guoguan's face, and understood everything, this guy is really a huge greed, this guy is really playing tricks on me!
He couldn't help but ask angrily, "I trust you so much, is that how you repay me?" ”
How do you answer this question?
Xue Guoguan was thinking frantically about how to deal with the angry Chongzhen in his head, and fooled this matter over, but unfortunately, this matter was too big, but his head was not enough, and he couldn't think of a way to deal with it in a short time, he could only pretend to be ashamed and afraid to delay time.
If a person looks at another person and is pleasing to the eye, it is pleasing to the eye no matter how you look at it.
If a person looks at another person unpleasantly, it will not be pleasing to the eye.
If Xue Guoguan had pretended to have this expression before, Chongzhen would definitely be unbearable, but at this time, he had already looked at Xue Guoguan unpleasantly, and Xue Guoguan's pretending to have this expression could only make him look even hotter.
Do you think I'll spare you by pretending to be like this?
Chongzhen snorted coldly and yelled outside the door: "Come on, send this traitorous villain to me in the edict prison, and interrogate him to see how much silver he is greedy for!" ”
When Xue Guoguan heard this, he was so frightened that he softened back, and sat down on the ground, it was over, he went to the edict, everything was over, he didn't know if he could withstand the interrogation of Jinyiwei, but he knew that the greedy silver would not have a chance to spend in this life.
Soon, the two brocade guards bowed down and walked in, grabbed Xue Guoguan's arm and dragged him out.
Xue Guoguan was already disillusioned at this time, and he didn't even have the courage to cry out for injustice, he was like a dead dog, being dragged out and sliding out, without barking.
Chongzhen squinted his eyes and coldly watched this guy being dragged away by Jinyiwei, looking angry, but after Xue Guoguan disappeared at the door, his face slowly showed a lonely look.
He lost again, and he lost to Zhang Bin again.
He knew that this was Zhang Bin's counterattack.
Zhang Bin must have realized that he was going to do something to him, so he shot directly at Xue Guoguan!
Chongzhen really didn't want to do Xue Guoguan, he finally cultivated such a person who was enough to compete with Zhang Bin, so naturally he didn't want to clean up before Zhang Bin was ambushed.
However, this Xue Guoguan is really too bold and reckless, he dared to bully the king, he dared to cooperate with Shi Yi to lie about the military situation, and he dared to openly sell his official position!
Such a person, if he is still allowed to stay in the position of the first assistant of the cabinet and the secretary of the ministry, the entire court will be made into a miasma by him, and the whole world will be unpeaceful by him, such a person can't stay, but if he can stay, how can Chongzhen slaughter his dog with his own hands!
This Zhang Bin is really powerful, so powerful that Chongzhen, the emperor, has a sense of powerlessness, and he wants to let Jinyiwei put Zhang Bin together in prison and let him be with Xue Guoguan!
However, he can't or dare not do this, a great hero who has just recovered thousands of miles of rivers and mountains in Liaodong, not only did he not have any reward, but he was directly arrested and imprisoned on trumped-up charges, this is simply the work of the No. 1 faint monarch in the sky, and he will definitely leave a stench for 10,000 years!
This is still secondary, if he really does this, will Zhang Bin's henchmen obey, will the Manchu civil and military forces obey, and if they die at that time, what will he do?
It's not impossible, and it's quite scary for pedantic literati to be stubborn.
The battle for the national capital of the Wanli Dynasty is a lesson, his grandfather and the literati because of the establishment of the prince, as a result, the Ming Dynasty of Zhongxing slowly fell to the bottom, and the slave was built in the last years of Wanli!
If you can't do it directly, what can you do?
Thinking about it, he thought of Xue Guoguan's suggestion again, Xue Guoguan did have a big problem, but there was no problem with his suggestion, first clean up all Zhang Bin's henchmen, let him have no support, and then do it, then there would be no problem.
Of course, there is another premise that Xue Guoguan did not say, and this premise is that all the yamen in the DPRK and China must be firmly controlled by their own people, so that no one dares to squeak.
Of course, Chongzhen knew this premise that he wanted to control the entire court through Xue Guoguan at the beginning, so the two of them tacitly did not say anything.
Now, Xue Guoguan has been sent to the edict by himself, what should I do?
He thought of a person, and this person was Zhou Yanru.
Originally, Zhou Yanru was used by him to fight against Xue Guoguan, but now that Xue Guoguan has an accident, it seems to be a good choice to use him to deal with Zhang Bin.
Does Zhou Yanru have this strength?
Yes!
Even if he doesn't, he can let him have it!
This Zhou Yanru was a character who could confront the big traitor Wen Tiren, and the reason why he lost to Wen Tiren in the end was entirely because he favored Wen Tiren, Chongzhen believed that as long as he fully supported him, he would definitely be able to clean up Zhang Bin!
However, there is another point, the balance must be grasped well, Zhou Yanru must not be allowed to stand alone, and someone must be found to sing against him.
So, who will you find to sing against Zhou Yanru?
Chongzhen sat there thinking motionlessly, and one by one the ideas he thought he thought were very wise appeared in his mind, and the Ming Dynasty Hall was about to become a mess of porridge under his "wise" leadership!
