Chapter 417: Besieging Shousuke

"Master Fu, the Holy Spring and Autumn Festival is in the prime of life, if you don't indulge in wine, how can you get sick? Even if you are addicted to alcohol, how can it not be a disease of physical deficiency? ”

After listening to Yang Lian's words, a Donglin Party official standing next to Yang Lian retorted violently, with a posture of asking for guilt. Heaven's Voice'.『 ⒉

"Master Fu, the saint's indulgence in wine is a sure and undoubted thing, and it is deliberately done by the traitorous party in the harem, and there is no need to discuss this matter."

Fang Congzhe was just about to open his mouth to argue, but another official of the Donglin Party said angrily, "Your Excellency knows that the saint's virtue is at a loss, but he uses words to cover it up, it is not the work of the direct minister!" ”

Li Hongyu frowned when he heard this, the "harem traitor" here naturally refers to the Empress Dowager Zheng, and the meaning of this target is too strong.

"This ...... How can this rumor be relied upon? How can our ministers know about the harem......"

Fang Congzhe was stunned at first, and then his face was embarrassed, although he had been up and down in officialdom for decades and was able to speak well, but what the two Donglin Party officials said was actually about the dignity of the royal family, and they used the secrets of the harem to talk about things, which really surprised him.

"Isn't it for nothing?" Seeing this, an official of the Donglin Party shouted, glared at Fang Congzhe and asked, "Could it be that Lord Fu thinks that we and the others are all people who talk about it?" ”

Li Hongyu secretly smiled bitterly, his face was full of helplessness, although he had been in the capital for more than a year, but because he was often outside, coupled with his position, he rarely encountered battles between different factions.

Therefore, the scene in front of him made him a little crying and laughing, and he never expected that these Donglin Party officials would use the rumors on the market to talk about things, which is really incredible.

"That's a big deal." Fang Congzhe secretly sighed, he knew that today's matter would never be good, so he had to ease his tone, looked at Zuo Guangdou and asked, "What does Fuqiu think?" ”

"Rebels and thieves, everyone will be punished!" Fuqiu is Zuo Guangdou's word, Zuo Guangdou sneered when he heard this, and said loudly.

"Exactly!"

At this time, Yang Lian, who was standing on the side, opened his mouth and said impassionedly to Fang Congzhe, "We want to face the saint, and implore the saint to be a virtuous minister and a villain, to punish the thief Cui Wensheng for the crime of rebellion, to investigate the main messenger behind the scenes, and to restore peace to the harem, so that the people of the world can rest assured." ”

Fang Congzhe's brows suddenly wrinkled, what is a villain, what is a virtuous minister? Could it be that this is up to the Donglin Party to decide?

"Wen Ru said bluntly that he is a model for my generation, we will face the saint and clear the traitors in the harem!"

Without waiting for Fang Congzhe to open his mouth to defend himself, the officials of the Donglin Party in front of him were already indignant, and shouted one after another, "The main messenger of the rebellion has been revealed to be the Empress Dowager Zheng, and the case of the attack was not solved back then, so this time the rebel can no longer be exonerated from the crime, otherwise how can there be peace in the harem?" ”

"Everyone, don't be impatient, this official will go to the other cabinet members to discuss, and give everyone a result." Fang Congzhe's face became a little ugly, he knew that it was difficult for him to reason with these excited Donglin Party members, so he groaned for a while and pressed his hand downward, shouting loudly.

After speaking, Fang Congzhe entered the attic behind him with an expressionless face, leaving the officials of the Donglin Party outside, and it was forbidden to break into the attic of Wenyuan Pavilion without permission, which was full of important secrets of the imperial court.

"Lord Yang, Lord Zuo, what are you doing here?"

Seeing this, Li Hongyu hesitated for a moment, then stepped forward and bowed his hand to Yang Lian and Zuo Guangdou, pretending to ask suspiciously.

"Scholar Li came just in time, and I will advise the emperor together, let the emperor be close to the virtuous ministers and villains, clear the harem traitors, and return the harem to a sunny day." Seeing Li Hongyu coming, Yang Lian stepped forward and said with great righteousness.

"There is a traitor in the palace?" Li Hongyu pretended not to understand and asked with a stunned expression.

"This is natural, otherwise the emperor would have fallen ill for no reason, this is what the traitorous party did!" Yang Lian nodded solemnly when he heard this, looked at Li Hongyu with a serious expression and said.

"What do you mean by that?" Seeing Yang Lian's solemn face, Li Hongyu couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart, and asked pretending to be puzzled, in his opinion, Yang Lian was too aggressive, and it was easy to become a sword in someone else's hand to fight on the battlefield.

"Scholar Li, do you know, the Queen Mother specially dedicated four stunning palace maids to the emperor in order to let the emperor let the Fu King return to the fiefdom, so that the emperor let the Fu King go."

Hearing this, an official of the Donglin Party solemnly said to Li Hongyu, "Where can the emperor withstand the temptation of those foxes, this will be a serious illness." ”

"It's not four, it's eight." As soon as the official's words fell, an official corrected him seriously, "I heard that the emperor has been with those eight foxes since he ascended the throne!" ”

"I've heard it's eight!" Someone immediately opened his mouth to echo and confirmed that Emperor Taichang had accepted eight stunning palace maids from Empress Dowager Zheng.

Li Hongyu's face deliberately showed a look of surprise, but he secretly shook his head in his heart, as a person who experienced it firsthand, he naturally knew why Emperor Taichang let go of King Fu, which had nothing to do with the palace maid or anything, but he didn't expect that there would be such rumors in the outside world, and it was believed to be true by the officials of the imperial court.

In fact, there are not only rumors that Empress Dowager Zheng gave Emperor Taichang a stunning palace maid, but also that Emperor Taichang is lustful and greedy, and even the rumors that the woman who served Emperor Wanli will not let go are even more popular.

Li Hongyu is also very clear about this matter, after all, he is a close minister of Emperor Taichang, although Emperor Taichang is not liked by Emperor Wanli, but he is still very in awe of Emperor Wanli in his heart, so he is painstaking in how to deal with the palace maids of the Qianqing Palace.

Qianqing Palace is the emperor's bedroom, so the palace maid inside has always been regarded as the emperor's woman, after the death of Emperor Yongle Ming Renzong ascended the throne, Emperor Renzong felt that it was not good to let the palace maids who had served their father continue to serve themselves, I was afraid that the wind would not be good, so I replaced the ten palace maids of the Qianqing Palace.

Who would have thought that as soon as the courtiers made a big uproar about this matter, they all said that Emperor Yongle's corpse was not cold, and Emperor Renzong considered the female sex of the harem, which was too lustful, so Emperor Renzong was criticized by the scholars of the Ming Dynasty for nearly two hundred years because of this matter.

Therefore, Emperor Taichang did not want to repeat the mistakes of his ancestors, not only decided not to recruit palace maids first, but also temporarily postponed, and waited for the three-year mourning period of Emperor Wanli to be crowned empress.

Since the palace maids were not recruited, the palace maids of the Qianqing Palace were originally serving the Wanli Emperor, and all of them were retained.

According to Emperor Taichang's plan, he will wait until next year to officially change the Yuan Taichang to recruit palace maids, in his opinion, he is extremely thoughtful in doing so, much more decent than Emperor Renzong back then, so he will definitely not attract the infamy of greed and lust like the old ancestor.

Unexpectedly, Emperor Taichang's will was reached as soon as it made the civil officials in the court angry, and there was gossip that the palace maids of the Qianqing Palace were all selected by Empress Zheng for the Wanli Emperor, and Emperor Taichang's move was to enjoy the beautiful palace maids of the Qianqing Palace.

Not only that, but the courtiers even talked about the fragrant life of Emperor Taichang in the harem, and the peach-colored scandals about Emperor Taichang were all said with noses and eyes, as if they had seen it with their own eyes.

Subsequently, the courtiers made suggestions based on these hearsay and even conjectures, and then criticized the emperor in writing, which gradually became a thing that the civil officials in the middle and late Ming Dynasty were tired of.

Those officials of the Donglin Party flew saliva and impassionedly surrounded Li Hongyu to accuse Empress Zheng of various crimes since she entered the palace, especially how bad Empress Dowager Zheng was during the attack case.

Obviously, what those officials say is hearsay, and there is no real evidence at all.

However, it doesn't matter what the truth is, what matters is that the rumors can be used by the courtiers, and that's the point.

Just when Li Hongyu was dizzy from the noise, Fang Congzhe walked out of the attic, followed by He Zongyan and other three new cabinet members, which made the scene suddenly quiet, and everyone looked at Fang Congzhe in unison, wondering what choice the cabinet had made.

"After the deliberation of the cabinet members, the cabinet will report to the emperor about the traitorous party in the harem and listen to the emperor's holy ruling." Fang Congzhe glanced around at the scene and said expressionlessly, with a lot of helplessness in his words.

Li Hongyu knew from Fang Congzhe's expression that he would definitely not agree to use such a ridiculous thing to disturb the sick Emperor Taichang, but it was a pity that the cabinet was not up to him now.

In fact, there was no distinction between the cabinet members, and the cabinet assistant was only responsible for sorting out the opinions of the cabinet members and conveying them to the emperor, but later due to the different powers and positions of the cabinet members, there was a distinction between strong and weak.

Once there is a disagreement between the cabinet members, then a vote will be held to eradicate the result of the vote, and Fang Congzhe is obviously not the opponent of the three Donglin party cabinet members.

Hearing this, the Donglin Party members at the scene cheered and were excited about their victory.

Fang Congzhe's face became even more ugly, thinking that he was forced to do something that he didn't like, or even thought was an extremely ridiculous thing, this feeling was really uncomfortable.

Like Li Hongyu, Fang Congzhe could naturally guess that today's incident was a bureau set up for him by the Donglin Party, otherwise how could Yang Lian, Zuo Guangdou and others come to such an important place as Wenyuan Pavilion?

But now that Mu Chengzhou said that it was too late, Fang Congzhe had to go to the Qianqing Palace to find Emperor Taichang, and it was estimated that Emperor Taichang would be furious when he learned about this, and there was no benefit to his condition.

Li Hongyu looked at Fang Congzhe's departing back with sympathy, feeling that his back was a little lonely and lonely, before the death of Emperor Wanli, he could be described as calling for wind and rain in the court, but now he has fallen to the point of being besieged and unable to fight back.

Moreover, Li Hongyu can be sure that Fang Congzhe will definitely be scolded by Emperor Taichang this time, this kind of mentally retarded problem is really speechless.
