In the following ten days, under the control of Sun Yueling, Yang Lian's blood book was spread in the streets and alleys of Jingshi, so that the grievances he suffered in the edict could be made public to the world, and the darkness and cruelty of the edict were also exposed to the sun, which was unanimously condemned by the gentry and people of Beijing. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

After the efforts of him and Huang Liji, the government and the opposition were agitated, and there were many heated discussions, and the spearhead was directly aimed at Cui Chengxiu and Xu Xianchun, and those students from Guozijian even organized a group to go to the door of the two to take turns scolding, scolding the two of them so much that they didn't even dare to go out and go out of the main gate. After this, Cui Chengxiu's reputation in both the court and the people plummeted, and he completely became the object of despisis by the world.

At this time, Sun Yueling returned to the Sun Mansion after a high-profile absence, and actively contacted and wandered among the officials and magnates in Beijing, quite a king's return. And he also received the news from Fujian, after the governor Zhu Yifeng learned that his bullet was like a mud cow into the sea, he was depressed and angry, and this piece was even more fierce and conclusive, scolding Yu Zhigao for being incomplete and counting his various sins.

Just when Sun Yueling took advantage of the situation, the British public Zhang Weixian was not idle, and the first thing he did was to hand over the demon handsome Li Yexun escorted by Sun Yueling to the Criminal Department, and enter the palace to meet the emperor and the queen, and show them the process before and after the arrest of this fire. The assassination of the queen was an unsolved case of the year, and now that the culprit has been caught, the emperor and the queen are naturally overjoyed, and they urgently order the criminal department to strictly try it, and it is necessary to find out everything clearly, and not let go of a person who has done evil.

But this matter still alarmed Wei Zhongxian after all, and under Wei Zhongxian's operation, Li Yexun was transferred to the Imperial Prison, and Xu Xianchun presided over the trial. The final result can be imagined, Li Yexun took all the sins, and committed suicide in the edict prison, the whole thing ended here, and Xiong Sifei and Ke Yinyue behind the scenes were not found out at all.

But Sun Yueling was not too disappointed, because he had long expected that things would not go so smoothly, Wei Zhongxian and Ke Yinyue would not let the truth of this matter come to light no matter what, and it was already a very profitable thing to be able to get rid of Xiong Sifei's subordinates, and after this incident, the British Duke Zhang Weixian's prestige in the DPRK was blazing, and Zhang Zhiqi was also transferred back to the forbidden army as the commander, which can be said that his goal has basically been achieved.

The next thing to do is to stink Cui Chengxiu wholeheartedly and make him completely hopeless to enter the cabinet. Everything he can do now has been done, and now it can only be seen what Apocalypse's attitude towards this matter is, this matter has already made a lot of noise, unless Apocalypse is really a mediocre monarch, it is impossible not to pay attention to it.

Sun Yueling's heart was rolling, and he secretly shouted: "Huang Ge Lao, Zhang Guogong, everything else depends on you!" ”

……

Dark night, goldfish alley, Cui Chengxiu's mansion.

The backyard room was brightly lit, and more than a dozen people were seated, discussing some of the things that had happened recently.

Cui Chengxiu was very annoyed, originally Yu Zhigao's matter had been suppressed by him and the factory public, but who would have thought that the cabinet minister Huang Liji would jump out at this critical moment and instigate the Son of Heaven to investigate the guilt of his two henchmen, Ni Wenhuan and Yuan Whale, causing one of them to sue for illness and the other to demote the official; The most important thing is that Sun Yueling, the leader of the Donglin Party, actually appeared in a high-profile manner at this time, and under his instigation, those officials in the court and the central government were like grass on the wall, and the wind blew that way and fell there.

When he arrived at this field, this matter could not be suppressed after all, and early tomorrow morning, the emperor was going to convene the six ministries and nine secretaries to discuss this matter, and he was also ordered by Wei Zhongxian to convene many of his comrades to discuss the way to deal with it, to see how to exonerate Yu Zhigao in tomorrow's court debate, or even win this battle for the Wei party.

Now this matter is not only his business, but also the business of Father-in-law Wei, because Father-in-law Wei's authority has been questioned-what Father-in-law Wei has long decided, and it has never been so repeated.

Cui Chengxiu glanced at everyone present and said in a deep voice: "Everyone talk about it, what should we do now?" ”

Wu Chunfu was the first to speak: "Brother Cui, things have developed to this point because of Sun Yueling, the leader of the Donglin Party!" ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone nodded one after another. It is no secret that Sun Yueling is sitting in Beijing in a high-profile manner, and under his conspiracy, those Donglin remnants in the court have been screaming, and there is a great tendency to make a comeback.

Cui Chengxiu snorted, gritted his teeth and said: "In addition to Sun Yueling, there is also the cabinet minister Huang Liji, if it weren't for him, how could we fall into such a passive situation!" "For him, Sun Yueling is just fine, after all, the government and the opposition are not in his eyes, if he Cui Chengxiu cares about those gossips, he will not be able to stay in this court for a long time; He really hated Huang Liji, this old guy pretended to be deaf and dumb in the cabinet on weekdays, and he didn't care about everything, but he stabbed him in the back at a critical moment, making his situation difficult.

He is the person nominated by Wei Zhongxian to join the cabinet to worship the prime minister, and now he has become the target of public criticism because of his defense of Yu Zhigao, he really doesn't care too much about whether Yu Zhigao falls or not, but if Yu Zhigao falls, he, the person who stands out for Yu Zhigao, will inevitably lose his prestige, even if he is not implicated by Yu Zhigao, it will be even more difficult to enter the cabinet to worship the prime minister.

As soon as he thought of this, Cui Chengxiu added a blockage in his heart, Huang Liji's outburst was clearly planned for a long time, the purpose was to prevent him from entering the cabinet, and now his reputation in the court and the opposition has been stinked by Sun Yueling, if he can't establish his authority again, I'm afraid that in the future, not only him, but even Gonggong Wei's words will not be listened to.

At this moment, hearing him say that the mastermind behind the scenes was Huang Liji, Xue Zhen, the secretary of the Criminal Department, frowned, and said: "It's really surprising that Huang Ge Lao is in unison with those Donglin Party members at this time!" ”

Cui Chengxiu said coldly: "I'm afraid that Huang Liji has fallen to Donglin and become Donglin's tongue." ”

Xue Zhen was surprised: "No, Huang Ge Lao has always been valued by Father-in-law Wei, so he has no reason to favor Donglin?" ”

Cui Chengxiu sneered: "Sometimes people can't do anything in order to go further? ”

Xue Zhen was shocked: "You mean, Huang Ge Lao wants to seek the position of first assistant?" ”

Choi Chengxiu snorted from his nostrils and did not answer.

Xu Xianchun slapped his thigh and shouted: "Cui Butang is right, I think this Huang Liji is trying to seek this position as the first assistant, otherwise it is impossible to suddenly jump out and oppose us." ”

Wu Chunfu said disdainfully: "Is he okay?" If it weren't for Grandpa Wei taking pity on him, how could he be in the cabinet? Now who doesn't know that the person who was fully elected to the cabinet by Gonggong Wei is Brother Cui Butang, and he wants to replace the deposed Feng Quan's second assistant with Brother Cui, and it will be Brother Cui who will sit on this first auxiliary position in the future. ”

Cui Chengxiu said lightly: "But if Huang Liji unites the Donglin Party and wins the court tomorrow, then things will not be so simple." “

Xue Zhen was taken aback and said, "No, how dare Huang Liji disobey Gonggong Wei and befriend those Donglin parties?" ”

Even Wu Chunfu, Xu Xianchun and others were full of shock and doubt, not quite believing in this possibility.

Cui Chengxiu seemed to be talking to herself, and said: "Originally, I didn't believe it, but now that all the facts are in front of me, I can't help but believe it." Hmph, Yu Zhigao's matter had already been suppressed by the headquarters, but Huang Liji suddenly broke out, breaking two of my henchmen, and at this time, Sun Yueling also spread rumors unfavorable to me between the government and the opposition, causing hundreds of officials in the court to turn around and aim the finger at us. Is all this a coincidence? ”

After a pause, he said hatefully, "In my opinion, Huang Liji and Sun Yueling have long colluded together, just to use Yu Zhigao's matter to disadvantage me. Also, judging from Feng Quan's actions before, there is a chance that this person will fall to Donglin, but he just didn't succeed! ”

As soon as these words fell, everyone fell silent. Judging from Cui Chengxiu's analysis and recent events, it is not impossible to do so.

Wu Chunfu snorted and said, "Huang Liji thinks that he is too comfortable to live, does he want to follow in the footsteps of Ding Shaoshi?" ”

Xu Xianchun also said: "That is, if you dare to betray Father-in-law Wei and go against Father-in-law Wei, he is really impatient!" ”

Cui Chengxiu looked at Xue Zhen and said, "Lord Xue, what do you think about this?" ”

Xue Zhen pondered for a moment and sighed: "So far, we can only see how the outcome of tomorrow's court meeting will be." But in my opinion, Brother Cui doesn't have to worry too much, now that the six departments and Jiuqing are mostly our people, Huang Liji is a lonely person, what kind of storm can he turn over? It's not like following our advice and following the big guys' will. ”

Cui Chengxiu shook his head and said, "Has Lord Xue forgotten about today's saint?" ”

"Your Majesty?" Xue Zhen was slightly surprised, and then said, "The matter of Yu Zhigao was originally a matter that was decided early, if the six ministries and nine secretaries reached a consensus, how could the emperor ignore the intentions of many ministers?" Besides, even if the emperor is unhappy, isn't there still Grandpa Wei? He is an old man who is deeply favored by the emperor, and the emperor doesn't believe us, doesn't he still believe in Grandpa Wei? Therefore, Brother Cui does not need to worry, tomorrow's court meeting will definitely make Huang Liji fall on his heel and let him know the consequences of going against us! ”

Wu Chunfu said: "What Lord Xue said is very true, Huang Liji will definitely take his own humiliation tomorrow, and he will never have the face to stay in the cabinet again, if he knows each other well, he should take the blame and retire, otherwise Feng Quan and Ding Shaoshi will be his end." ”

Xu Xianchun said with a smile: "Yes, yes, Huang Liji is killing himself, he doesn't know how many catties and taels he has, and he dares to fight against Cui Butang." There is also that Sun Yueling, after I saw the court discussion, I will arrest him and forget it, so as to save him from jumping up and down in the Beijing Division, which is not good for us all day long. ”

Cui Chengxiu sneered: "Let's let this guy stumble for a few more days, and when the headquarters enters the cabinet, we will sweep away all these locusts, flies, gnats and gnats in Donglin!" ”
