Chapter 209: How to choose a knife
Although it is actually Zhu Changluo who wants to deal with Liu Shouyou, but he himself can't make a blatant move, without him, no matter what, he is the body of a vassal king, and if he rashly impeaches the prefect, it will easily be regarded as excluding dissidents, expanding power, and then being used as a rhetoric by some people with intentions.

Of course, this is nothing to Zhu Changluo, as long as his identity as the eldest son of the emperor is not shaken, this kind of thing will not be able to defeat him, not to mention that he doesn't even have an enlightenment teacher now, and all responsibilities can be shirked from being young and ignorant!
But in this way, it will complicate the otherwise simple things, you must know that in the court, most of the time it is not what you commit, what kind of punishment you will receive.
Rather, there are many complex factors involved......
Just like there were many corrupt officials in later generations, it is not that they cannot find out their crimes, but their position, their own connections, and the consequences of taking them down, all kinds of factors restrict, resulting in the end these criminal evidence will actually only be useful when they provoke some real bigwigs.
The most important factor is naturally the stability and tranquility of the region, which is the first factor considered by the imperial court, and it is also a problem that Zhu Changluo considered at the beginning, but with the presence of Hui merchants, this is not a concern.
The real key is still in the court, if Zhu Changluo does this, the court will naturally classify Liu Shouyou into the ranks of Zhu Changluo's enemies, which is nothing, but the problem is that he has an emperor father who wants to block him everywhere.
If Zhu Yijun thinks that Liu Shouyou can balance Zhu Changluo, then no matter how hard he puts in, it will be in vain, after all, Zhu Changluo actually has no power in the court now, and the courtiers want to make him the prince because of etiquette.
He was not so arrogant that he thought that the courtiers would follow in his footsteps unconditionally......
So he definitely can't do it himself, at most he beats the side drum, and he still has to find someone else for this kind of thing, but this candidate is very easy to find.
Who is the one who can be tough with the emperor?
It may be difficult to find in other dynasties, but in the Ming Dynasty, the civil official group was not vegetarian.
Although Liu Shouyou is barely a member of the civil official group, he is from a turbid background, and his reputation among the scholars is also very poor, so if you want to deal with him, you still have to ask the civil officials to come out!
But who will be the sharp knife? Zhu Changluo was a little uncertain!
To be reasonable, there are two suitable candidates for this matter, Shen Hong, who is the same as the government, and Liu Mengzhou, the official of the government.
The reason for choosing the two of them is very simple, the situation of Ping'an Mansion is special, the imperial court has not sent officials to the prefect before, but most of them can't suppress the local merchant forces, so the prefect of Ping'an Mansion has been promoted from the prefect and the prefect in recent years.
Liu Shouyou took this path, before he was only the magistrate of Fanchang County under the jurisdiction of Ping'an Mansion, and later he was promoted to the prefect.
So judging from the current situation, once Liu Shouyou falls, the successor prefect will basically be selected from the two of them, and it is even possible that whoever will write to the court will be able to get the position of prefect.
After all, merit should be rewarded, otherwise it will chill people's hearts......
However, these two people made Zhu Changluo a little uncertain, not that he was afraid to say that he couldn't move these two people, you know, above the officialdom, discipline or something, it has always been just floating clouds, even if it is Shen Hong, who seems to be Liu Shouyou's dog's legs, as long as Zhu Changluo can guarantee to bring down Liu Shouyou, he will definitely be the first to go up and charge.
Since ancient times, wealth has moved people's hearts, and official positions are even more moving!
Speaking of which, these two people actually have their own advantages and disadvantages for Zhu Changluo, in terms of level, Shen Hong is the same governor of the government, and he is the fifth grade, in addition to the general affairs of the prefect's mansion, there is also a rule of supervision and illegality, it is natural for him to impeach Liu Shouyou, and for Zhu Changluo, he has a little bit of a cowardly temperament, otherwise he will not change from a subordinate official who checks and balances the prefect to a dogleg.
This may be a disadvantage for others, but not for Zhu Changluo, because if such a person sends him to the position of the prefect, in addition to being grateful to Zhu Changluo, it will be much easier for Zhu Changluo to implement any policies in the future.
In contrast, Liu Mengzhou is inferior to him in this regard, Liu Mengzhou was born in Qingliu, Wanli has been a jinshi for 18 years, and he has not been in the officialdom for a few years, and his spirit has not disappeared, and his official position is the official who is in charge of the criminal name, and his personality is naturally a little hard.
If he becomes the prefect, once he disagrees with Zhu Changluo's concept, Zhu Changluo is not sure that he will be able to suppress him, after all, he is different from Liu Shouyou!
But he also has advantages, although he is only a government official from the sixth grade, and his level is not as good as Shen Hong, but his identity as a jinshi is inherently a signboard, there is no doubt that if he comes to impeach Liu Shouyou, the Qingliu of the imperial court will definitely respond in groups, and Qingliu has always been the main force of the civil official group.
And Zhu Changluo knew very well that Liu Mengzhou and Liu Shouyou had been at odds for a long time, and if he wanted to persuade him to even need a lure to send the incriminating evidence directly, Liu Mengzhou promised that he would immediately submit his money to the court.
At this point, Shen Hong is not as decisive as Liu Mengzhou, with his timid and fearful character, Zhu Changluo is afraid that it will take a lot of effort to make him do something that seems to be "high-risk risk" like impeaching the prefect!
However, when he told Zhao Shizhen about this distress, the answer he got made him a little speechless.
"Your Highness is hesitant, why don't you let the two of you impeach that Liu Shouyou together?"
"It's not proper, these two people don't deal with each other, how can they be together? And it's too ostentatious! ā
Zhu Changluo frowned and said, not to mention that these two have always looked down on each other, Liu Mengzhou looked down on Shen Hong and knelt and licked Liu Shouyou all day long, while Shen Hong looked down on Liu Mengzhou's fake Qinggao, and the contradiction between the two was actually no less than Liu Mengzhou and Liu Shouyou.
It's a bit unrealistic to want these two people to join forces!
And another point is that if these two people write a joint book, it is easy for people to notice the trickiness in it, after all, it is easy for people to think that the two officials are going to overhead the chief official when they write together.
Again, if this incident is regarded as a political intrigue incident, it will involve a wide range of aspects, and there will be more uncontrollable factors.
"Your Highness, the minister thinks that impeaching Liu Shouyou is a swagger, because whether it is Shen Hong or Liu Mengzhou's recital, it must be forwarded by the government, since we are determined to get rid of him, then this is inevitable, and has His Highness considered it, how to mention this matter to the two of them?"
Zhao Shizhen pondered for a moment, and then asked rhetorically.
