Volume VII Chapter VII Arrangement
Chongzhen was already a little dizzy by Wen Tiren at this time, whether Zhang Bin made Fuguang angry and resentful, and the people were not happy, he couldn't make a judgment.
Is it possible? Possibly!
He thought about it for a while and hesitated: "Why don't you transfer Zhang Bin back to the capital to take up a post?" ”
When Wen Tiren heard this, he almost spurted out a mouthful of old blood, but he didn't expect that when it came to this, the emperor was not angry, and he was still "favoring" Zhang Bin, so that Zhang Bin would return to the capital like this!
He thumped his feet and said, "Your Majesty, you can't let such a traitor of the common people get away with it!" ”
His excited expression is not all pretended, he is really a little excited, this time he can't turn over Zhang Bin, and when Zhang Bin returns to the capital, it will be even more hopeless, can he not be in a hurry, can he not be excited!
Chongzhen saw him like this, and hurriedly persuaded: "Changqing, Zhang Bin has made a lot of great contributions after all, and suddenly dismissing him from his post and investigating it will chill the hearts of many people. ”
Wen Tiren was excited, and suddenly reacted again, Chongzhen is stubborn and can't force himself with him, so he can only follow his hair, otherwise it is likely to backfire.
He hurriedly calmed down his mood, and said helplessly: "Weichen obeys the order, however, Weichen thinks that Fuguang still has to send someone to appease him, do you think the emperor should send someone to take over as the governor of Fuguang?" ”
Chongzhen has this temperament, if you follow his will, you can say anything, if you have a hard top with him, then you have nothing to say.
Seeing that Wen Tiren listened to his advice and no longer insisted on removing Zhang Bin from his post for investigation, he immediately nodded with satisfaction: "Well, you are very thoughtful, who should you send, do you have a suitable candidate?" ”
This candidate naturally had already been available, and Wen Tiren said without hesitation: "Back to the emperor, Zhang Jie, the right deputy of the Imperial Palace, is fair and honest, loyal and diligent, and can be outstanding, dedicated to the country, and it is suitable to clean up the mess of Fuguang." ”
He didn't blush at all when he said this, Zhang Jie is a dog he cultivated, what a fair and honest, loyal and diligent, can be outstanding, dedicated to the country, bullshit!
This goods have to be put down, greedy more ruthless than anyone else, if you want to say loyalty, it is also loyalty to his warm body, not loyalty to Chongzhen, talent may be a little, compared to corruption, there may be few people who have compared, as for what is dedicated to the country, it is pure nonsense, and it is almost the same to be corrupt.
Wen Tiren sent this capable general down, not only to loot the people's fat and ointment, but also to fabricate accusations against others, after he went, he would definitely be able to pour dirty water on Zhang Bin!
Chongzhen naturally didn't know what Wen Tiren's idea was, he felt that Zhang Bin had already embarrassed the first assistant of the dynasty, and the governor of Fuguang was a little embarrassed by this first assistant.
So, he nodded and agreed: "Okay, let the right deputy of the Imperial Palace, Zhang Jie, the governor of Fuguang, appease the people of Fuguang." ”
Wen Tiren quickly calculated in his mind, if Zhang Bin came back and only served as a Zhan Shifu Zhan Shi, it would not be very difficult to clean up, as long as Zhang Jie fabricated a bunch of charges against him in Fuguang, and then he launched the impeachment of the Qichu and Zhejiang parties together, it should be about the same.
However, it is not so easy for Zhang Bin to come back comfortably to be Zhan Shifu Zhan Shifu, no matter how much he drops, he has to make his reputation stink first!
Thinking of this, he pretended to be upright, and said solemnly: "Your Majesty, although Zhang Bin's removal from office and investigation can be avoided, the process of Jingcha still has to be completed, if he has been lawless in Fuguang for six years, and he has not even given a warning when he comes back, won't other officials follow suit!" Otherwise, let him go through the process of self-identification, and then we will offset it with merit and demerit, which can also serve as a warning to those treacherous ministers, after all, no one has made so many great contributions to Zhang Bin, if they dare to learn Zhang Bin's nonsense, then they will die! ”
Chongzhen naturally has no opinion on this, there are no rules, there is no circle, this rule still has to be talked about, he nodded and said: "Okay, let Zhang Bin go back to defend himself, first pass the Jingcha pass, and then serve as the Zhan Shifu Zhan Shifu." ”
This result is barely acceptable, Wen Tiren is no longer entangled in this, he continues to ask: "Your Majesty, what about the other officials of Fuguang and Lu Xiangsheng and Sun Chuanting, how to deal with them?" ”
This Chongzhen attaches more importance to it, because these people are Zhang Bin's "henchmen", to weaken Zhang Bin, the main thing is to weaken his henchmen, as long as the henchmen are gone, he will not have much of a threat.
In the imperial study, Chongzhen was discussing with his favorite ministers Wen Tiren, Tang Shiji, and Wang Yingxiong, Chongzhen wanted to take advantage of the opportunity of Jingcha to weaken Zhang Bin's power as much as possible, so as not to lose the tail, and Wen Tiren wanted to take advantage of Zhang Bin's absence in the capital, arrange him properly, take him by surprise first, and wait for him to return to Beijing and then take him away with a mess.
They made a good calculation, thinking that they didn't know it, and Zhang Bin was even more in the dark, but they didn't know that Cao Huachun's ears outside had been pointed.
Chongzhen and Wen Tiren discussed secretly for more than an hour, and finally arranged Zhang Bin and his henchmen, and at the end of the song, the entire imperial study fell into a quiet again, Chongzhen was still there to carefully review the folds, and Cao Huachun was still standing outside with low eyebrows and waiting, as if nothing had happened.
Soon, when lunch time came, the two eunuchs walked softly to the door with food boxes, bowed down and stood behind Cao Huachun, Cao Huachun immediately said softly: "Your Majesty, it's time to eat." ”
When Chongzhen heard this, he said excitedly: "Quick, bring it in, I'm really hungry." ”
Cao Huachun beckoned, took the two eunuchs and bowed into the imperial study, helped Chongzhen clean up the desk, and then put the imperial food on the desk one by one.
A plate of green vegetables, a bowl of tofu, a scrambled egg, a bowl of pickled vegetable soup, and a large bowl of rice, this is Chongzhen's lunch.
I have to say that Chongzhen really wants to be a good emperor, he is diligent and thrifty, tireless, day and night, and hard work, it can be said that he has eight points for the character of a good emperor.
It's a pity that the last two points cost him his life, he is suspicious by nature, stubborn and self-serving, coupled with a treacherous and vain service, just want to fight for power and profit and reap benefits, completely ignoring the danger of the country, no matter how hard he tries, it will only be a failure after all.
After Cao Huachun brought the food to the desk with his own hands, he took out a pair of silver chopsticks and carefully checked all the meals, and took out a little bit of each, just ordered this food, ate a bowl of rice, and then felt it carefully in his chest and abdomen, and then bowed down and said: "Your Majesty, it's okay." ”
When Chongzhen heard this, he immediately picked up the chopsticks, picked up the big bowl of rice, and ate it quickly, devouring it, just like being an emperor.
Whenever this happens, Cao Huachun can't help but have tears in his eyes.
He was a proud disciple of Wang An, the great eunuch in the palace of Wanli, Taichang, and Tianqi, and naturally he had seen those three emperors dine.
Wanli is the most extravagant, every meal must be full of a large table of delicacies from the mountains and seas, many dishes he will not even move the chopsticks, but the dishes must be complete, the same can not be missing.
Taichang and Tianqi are okay, these two fathers and sons don't like to put on a show, and there are only a dozen dishes per meal, of course, there are also delicacies from the mountains and seas.
When he arrived at Chongzhen, he became like this, every meal was coarse tea and light rice, and he might not be able to spend as much money as Wanli for a meal for a year!
Cao Huachun secretly wiped his tears, but he couldn't calm down in his heart, why is God so unfair, why does he let the emperor suffer like this?
The so-called poor people must have something to hate, this can't be blamed on God, only the apocalypse, blame Taichang, blame Wanli, why leave such a mess for Chongzhen, even, Chongzhen himself is responsible, if he is not suspicious by nature, stubborn and self-serving, if his eyes can be polished a little, not credulous ministers, why not.
Chongzhen didn't have so much emotion at this time, he was really hungry, because he didn't have any oil and water at every meal, and he was very busy all day long, so it was strange that his chest was close to his back if he wasn't hungry.
He swept away all the food, drank a few sips of pickle soup, and then took a long breath and waved his hand contentedly: "Companion, you go down first, I can rest for a while." ”
With that, he threw his head back, leaned back in his chair and closed his eyes to rest.
He is really tired, every morning just after the ugly hour, he has to get up to prepare for the morning court, after the morning court, he has to review the folds, deal with government affairs, every day to be busy until late at night, a day to sleep less than four hours, and, once there is a big war, he is often a few days and nights without rest, the body has been seriously overdrawn.
Therefore, he has to rest for about a quarter of an hour every time he finishes eating, otherwise, he will not be able to open his eyes.
Seeing this, Cao Huachun hurriedly put away the dishes and chopsticks lightly, carefully withdrew from the imperial study with the two eunuchs, and immediately beckoned to Fang Zhenghua not far away.
Seeing this, Fang Zhenghua hurriedly walked over, arched his hand, and stood respectfully to the side.
At this time, the emperor was resting, and no one could make a noise, so he didn't say anything.
Cao Huachun attached to his ear and whispered: "You watch here, I'll come back later." ”
With that, he hurried to a small room not far away.
There, it is Cao Huachun's temporary resting place, the room is not big, but it is full of organs, with beds, chairs, desks and even two rows of small bookshelves.
Cao Huachun hurriedly walked to the door, and said to the little eunuch on duty: "Let Luo Wengang come over, hurry up." ”
When the little eunuch heard this, he hurriedly said yes and obeyed the order, and walked out quickly, while Cao Huachun walked into the small room, picked up the brush, took out the letter paper, and waved the pen to write.
Today's events are simply a catastrophe for Zhang Bin's family, if one is not good, Zhang Bin will be ruined by Wen Tiren, although he will not have anything to do, but, his brother and his nephew are all mixed with Zhang Bin, if Zhang Bin has an accident, will they still have a good life.
Besides, he and Zhang Bin are also brothers and sisters, and he doesn't want Zhang Bin to have an accident, so he must send the news back to Fuguang as soon as possible and tell Zhang Bin that he should prepare as soon as possible, and not be caught off guard by Wen Tiren and defeated.
Before he finished writing, Luo Wengang, the head of the East Investigation Factory, had already whispered outside: "Factory father." ”
When Cao Huachun heard this, he didn't raise his head, and said directly: "Come in." ”
Soon, Luo Wengang walked in lightly and stood aside.
After about a tea time, Cao Huachun put down the brush, took out an envelope, stuffed a stack of written letter paper into it, and carefully sealed the mouth with glue, and made a secret note, then handed the envelope to Luo Wengang, and said solemnly: "You immediately hand over the letter to Lord Luo, and let him find a way to transfer it to Zhang Bin, the governor of Fuguang, as soon as possible." ”
Luo Wengang took the envelope, carefully stuffed it into his arms, and then bowed his hand to obey the order, and then walked out quickly.
Cao Huachun looked at his back and sighed, there is only so much he can do for the time being, and how to deal with it next depends on Zhang Bin.
Fortunately, Zhang Bin was very careful, and every time he interacted with Cao Huachun and Luo Yangxing, he concealed his whereabouts, otherwise, let Chongzhen know that he and the Governor of Dongchang and the commander of Jinyiwei were also very close in private, it would be a really shocking case, and Chongzhen estimated that he would be killed together with Cao Huachun and Luo Yangxing!
Luo Wengang took the secret letter and did not show any unusual look, he calmly walked through the avenue outside the Huangji Hall and the Zhongji Hall from the Xihua Gate out of the palace, and then passed through the Treasure Money Bureau, the Silver Bureau, and the Sheji Altar, and passed through the Chengtian Gate from the right gate of Chang'an out of the Imperial City, through the Imperial City, all the way, whether it was a eunuch or a brocade guard, no one dared to stop him, let alone anyone dared to search him.
He is second only to Cao Gonggong's punishment of thousands of households in Dongchang, and the people in Dongchang are afraid when they see him, and Jinyiwei is under the management of Dongchang, who dares to stop him, and even, he doesn't have to hide his whereabouts, so swaggering into the Jinyi Wei Yamen, all Jinyi Guards are respectful when they see him, and they don't dare to ask a word.
At this time, Luo Yang's idle boredom was in the study with a few old thousands of households under his father, and a few people seemed to be chatting about the rise, he actually rolled up his sleeves, stepped on the chair, and raised his hand to gesticulate.
At this moment, a figure suddenly ghostly walked in from the main entrance, and there was not even a sound outside.
Everyone was about to be reprimanded, but as soon as they looked at the human appearance, they were immediately stunned, and then, those old thousands of households ran away like mice seeing cats, joking, this is the East Factory in charge of thousands of households, specially cleaned up them, they are not afraid of it.
Luo Yangxing put down his sleeves in embarrassment, straightened his python robe, and sneered: "Lord Luo, what's the matter, come here in such a hurry, if you have something, just send someone to say hello, what do we have to do with it, right?" ”
Luo Wengang's steel-plated cheeks twitched, and he laughed, and then he took out the secret letter from his arms, stepped forward and handed it to him, and whispered in his ear: "Lord Cao asked you to find a way to transfer this letter to Lord Zhang Bin, the governor of Fuguang, as soon as possible." ”
It turned out to be for Zhang Bin, so it can't be publicized, Luo Yangxing nodded, didn't say anything, Luo Wengang didn't say anything, arched his hand and retreated directly.
In this broad daylight, how can you contact Zhao Ru and them?
Luo Yangxing thought about it, and directly recruited Qi Panzong and asked him to take a cronie to the stele alley.
This stele alley was originally inhabited by the general of the Jinyi Wei Han Dynasty, and it is not surprising that the commander of the Jinyi Wei took a captain to the past.
However, if you take a closer look, you will find that when Qi Panzong came back, the person who followed him was no longer the original captain, but Zhao Ru, who had changed into a Jinyi uniform!
