This key point, Wei Zhongxian can see it, and Ye Xianggao can naturally see it, so Sun Yueling was ordered by Ye Xianggao to come to visit the edict late at night, so as to take advantage of this to relax the heart of the military advisor. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Sun Yueling saw that Wang Wenyan didn't speak, he still looked like he was in a good mood, he was a little anxious, and said: "Strategist, I also came here privately this time, I can't stay for a long time, I'll make a long story short!" The elder of the pavilion asked me to convey to me that the military advisor can be relieved here, and he will definitely advise the saint to do his best to protect the military division from difficulties, and the military advisor must be well recuperated, and do not be impetuous......

Wang Wenyan listened quietly, and suddenly said, "That's what Elder Ge said? ”

"Uh......" Sun Yueling hesitated slightly, and said, "Elder Ge also said that as long as the military division is well, then Donglin will naturally be as stable as Mount Tai, and Donglin will never forget the military division's planning." ”

Wang Wenyan's face was still calm, but there was a slight ripple in his heart, judging from Sun Yueling's words, although Ye Xianggao's words seemed to be calm and normal on the surface, Ye Shoufu's heart was not as strong as he showed - in the face of Wei Zhongxian's fierce offensive, Lord Shoufu was also slightly weak-hearted, worried that he Wang Wenyan couldn't stand the punishment of the edict and bite those Donglin gentlemen.

Wang Wenyan closed his eyes, took a deep breath, tried his best to calm his mood, nodded at Sun Yueling, and said: "What Pavilion Elder means, I already understand, I will definitely not disappoint his intentions!" ”

Sun Yueling looked at Wang Wenyan, whose face was haggard, and said, "What else does the military advisor have to convey to the elder?" Wang Wenyan has always been elegant and graceful, but now he is in prison and is down, which makes him feel sad in his heart.

Wang Wenyan's eyes widened, as if there was a flash of light, and said: "Tell the elder of the pavilion that if Wei Zhongxian wants to force me to comply, he will move Luo Sigong, as long as Jinyiwei is still in charge of Luo Sigong for a day, Wenyan will be safe for a day." ”

"Don't worry, the military advisor will definitely bring the words in the future, take care of the military advisor, you can't stay here for a long time, I'll go." Sun Yueling bowed to Wang Wenyan and got up to leave.

Seeing Sun Yueling's figure stepping out of the prison door, Wang Wenyan suddenly shouted: "Wait! ”

"What else do you have to explain?" Sun Yueling turned around and said.

Wang Wenyan smiled heartily, as if he had resumed his usual smugness, and said: "Wenyan is a cloth cloth, and it is appreciated by Shoufu that it has today's achievements." After a pause, he continued, "Trouble Hall Master Sun to tell the elder that if the matter is irreparable, when the disaster stops Wenyan alone, he will exchange the body of a cloth cloth for the wish of Jingyang for a hundred generations, and this life is enough!" ”

Sun Yueling was shocked when he heard this, and said in a trembling voice: "The military advisor ......"

……

At this moment, in the backyard study room of Gu Bingqian's mansion, the assistant minister of the cabinet and the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, more than a dozen people sat down in turn, discussing the next move.

Gu Bingqian looked around at everyone and said lightly: "What Gonggong Wei meant, everyone must understand!" This impeachment of Luo Sigong and his expulsion from Jinyiwei, please speak freely. "Gu Bingqian is a native of Kunshan, Jiangsu, although he was born in Donglin's nest, but he is not allowed to be a member of the Donglin Party, and the people of Donglin despise him as despicable and shameless, treacherous and sexless, and regard him as an outlier, so Gu Bingqian voted for Wei Zhongxian in anger and became the first important minister in the court under Wei Gonggong.

As soon as these words fell, Zhu Tongmeng, who was sitting under him, said: "Pavilion Elder, the lower officials think that since this is what Father-in-law Wei meant, then as long as I wait for this to participate in Luo Sigong, as long as Father-in-law Wei speaks in front of the emperor, I will not worry about Luo Sigong." "This person is the sub-guard of Susong Mansion to participate in politics, and this time he came to Beijing to pay homage to Wei Zhongxian in the name of illness, so he was also invited.

What Lord Zhu said was very true, Luo Sigong's long-term trial of Wang Wenyan was fruitless, which had already caused Father-in-law Wei to be very dissatisfied. As long as I wait for the book to count Luo Sigong's crimes, even if he is favored by the emperor again, the emperor will not be able to protect him again and again, right? He and Zhu Tongmeng are both members of the Qi Party, and the two have been at odds with the Donglin Party before, and they are not used to those Donglin gentlemen who only know how to study and preach, and talk about politics on paper.

Therefore, the two were favored by Wei Zhongxian, and after the fall of the three parties of Qi, Chu and Zhejiang, the two also switched to Wei Zhongxian's disciples and gave advice under his account. Not only the two of them, but the rest of the people here at this moment, most of them used to be members of the three parties, and now, they all have a common title: eunuch party.

Gu Bingqian listened to the words of the two and asked, "In this case, how do you plan to impeach Luo Sigong?" ”

Zhu Tongmeng continued: "According to the lower officials, Luo Sigong, as the commander of the Jinyi Guard, has the following three major crimes: first, in an important position, he turned a blind eye to the cult at the foot of the imperial city, causing him to attack the imperial city and almost endanger the Son of Heaven; Second, when the queen mother made a wish in Xiangshan, she was attacked by demons, and the princess was even more captive by demons, and was in danger of being humiliated. Third, Luo Sigong has a very close relationship with Zuo Guangdou, Yang Lian and others, and they are friends with each other, and it is inevitable that he will handle Wang Wenyan's case unfairly, and he will inevitably be biased, and he will not be able to fulfill his duties. ”

Gu Bingqian nodded slightly, and said, "Lord Zhu is reasonable, such an impeachment must be able to persuade the emperor to remove him......"

Before the words fell, someone suddenly interjected: "It's not appropriate, it's really a big inappropriate way to do this!" ”

Everyone was surprised for a while, and they all looked at the person who interjected, and they were all surprised when they saw that it was the imperial historian Cui Chengxiu. During the period of this person's patrol of Huai and Yang, he was impeached by Gao Panlong, a member of the Donglin Party, for corruption, and was dismissed by the imperial court pending investigation.

Gu Bingqian was unhappy in his heart, squinted at him, and said coldly: "What's wrong with acting like this?" ”

Cui Chengxiu got up and bowed to Gu Bingqian, and said: "Back to the old pavilion, the lower officials think that this Luo Sigong, as the head of the Son of Heaven's personal guard, has always been trusted by the emperor, and there is more Donglin Su Lao and important ministers behind him. Have you forgotten what happened to the leaders of the three parties? ”

When these words fell into the ears of everyone present, they all felt a burst of shock. Today's court is dominated by the Donglin Party, and the aftermath of the four evils and the three parties is still there, and they feel palpitations when they think about it, let alone directly confront the Donglin Party. The reason why they wanted to defect to the eunuch party headed by Wei Zhongxian was because they were afraid that the Donglin party would inevitably be killed if they were not of our race?

Gu Bingqian was even more displeased when he heard this, and frowned: "This is a matter that Father-in-law Wei has personally descended from, can I just ignore his intentions?" ”

"Of course not." Cui Chengxiu stood up straight, his eyes swept over the faces of everyone present one by one, and said: "No matter how strong the Donglin Party is, it is only the emperor's courtiers, and the Donglin Party is against us, maybe we are not sure of victory, but we can transfer the contradiction between Donglin and us to the emperor, let the emperor go up and fight with Donglin, and then we will exert our strength from the side, so that even if Donglin is powerful, it will not be able to escape the end of destruction." ”

"Oh?" Gu Bingqian listened to what he said, and couldn't help asking, "How can we pass on the contradiction and let Donglin directly confront the emperor?" "Although he is the first important minister under Wei Zhongxian, he is only old and old, and he is good at meeting speculation.

Cui Chengxiu took a good time and said slowly: "The Donglin Party people think that they are auxiliary to defend the country and discuss the world, but they didn't expect that what they did would have made the emperor unhappy, otherwise, the emperor would not have made the Duke of Wei supervise Dongchang, let alone disrupt the Donglin cabinet......

These words caused everyone to nod their heads, these people present are all old oilmen who have been in the officialdom for many years, judging from the current emperor's arrangement, how can they not guess the emperor's hidden thoughts? It's just that, firstly, the emperor did not make an obvious statement, and secondly, Donglin's power is really strong, so no one wants to be a bird and Donglin to do it again, lest it will be successful, but it will implicate itself.

"So, what we're missing right now is just an opportunity. As long as the emperor's anger and dissatisfaction with Donglin reach its peak, we will wait for an opportunity to ignite this long-suppressed flame, which will inevitably cause the wrath of the Son of Heaven, and when the time comes, we will naturally be able to completely bring down the Donglin Party. ”

Huo Weihua smiled when he heard this: "Master Cui, just say it quickly, what are we going to do, why bother going around the old and making everyone not understand?" "This person is also a strategist under Wei Zhongxian, and when Wei Zhongxian made a plan to kill Wang An, the eunuch of the Three Dynasties, he adopted this person's idea.

As soon as he said this, everyone shouted, and some people had long been dissatisfied with Cui Chengxiu's pretending to be a showman.

Cui Chengxiu restrained his smile and said solemnly: "In recent years, Donglin's policy has long been greatly refuted by people of insight in the court, and the emperor has also made a few adjustments to Donglin's policies, and has restored the "tea supervisor", "mine supervisor" and other regulatory departments, but in this way, there has been a great conflict with the Donglin party, so they have also twisted their arms with the emperor...... "paused, continued, "And we, as long as we add more force to this matter, it will inevitably make Donglin thunderous and unable to endure it anymore, but this matter is for the emperor." , things that are of great benefit to the inner treasury and the world, the emperor will naturally have ideas in his heart, so as long as the emperor is against Donglin again because of this matter, it is time for us to fight back with all our might. ”

"Wonderful!" Huo Weihua slapped his thigh and shouted, "Master Cui is really wise, in this way, the emperor will never be able to tolerate all the shirks and resistance of the Donglin Party, and he will inevitably be very angry with the Donglin Party, and at this time, the matter has evolved into a contradiction between the emperor and Donglin, not a contradiction between us and Donglin, we only need to exert our strength on the side, even if we can't bring down Donglin in one fell swoop, I'm afraid they will be deeply disappointed by the monarch's grace and will never be trusted by the emperor again!" ”

Cui Chengxiu smiled and said, "That's right." ”

At this time, everyone had roughly understood what Cui Chengxiu meant, and Gu Bingqian was even more determined in his heart, turned to Guo Yunhou, and said: "Guo Zhishi, Cui Yushi's words must have been understood, tomorrow the court will meet, you know what to do, right?" ”

Guo Yunhou pondered for a moment and said: "The lower official understands, after the lower official goes back, he will write a good chapter, and he will play it directly in front of the emperor early tomorrow morning, and ask for the dispatch of tax supervisors and additional tax collections." ”

Gu Bingqian smiled and said, "That's very good, I'll discuss it carefully!" ”

……

Today is the Great Dynasty Meeting, so Sun Yueling got up early in the morning and waited outside the noon gate early. He is now a member of the military department from the fifth grade, wearing a three-beam crown, wearing a green robe and a silver belt and a red robe, white socks and black shoes, holding an ivory wat in his hand, and the embroidery pattern of the court clothes is a white pheasant, and his outfit has finally changed with his grade, and it is no longer as simple and vulgar as before.

According to the convention, the court meeting is a small court on three days and a big court on the fifth day, but since the grandfathers of the apocalypse, they have been neglecting the government and exempting the dynasty, so the court meeting system of the Ming Dynasty has gradually become useless, and it is only held when there are major affairs and important border situations. Apocalypse himself is a player, and the number of times he has been to the court is also pitiful, and it is simply rare to have a court meeting of such a scale today.

At this moment, inside and outside the court room has been full of officials waiting for the court, after the drum trio sounds, the civil and military officials stand in accordance with the left and right martial arts, the rank and level of the rank, from the left and right doors, and go to the Huangji Palace. The eunuch sounded the whip, the Son of Heaven's honor guard was clearly dressed and armored, and the honor guard stood neatly inside and outside the Imperial Palace, and then the bell rang, and the civil and military officials standing under the Danqi of the main hall entered the hall in turn to see the Son of Heaven.

The generals and captains in brocade clothes were dressed in iron armor and helmets, standing on both sides of the royal road, holding swords with the civil and military attachés. Under His Majesty Dan, the bell and drum division played music, the brocade wrestler Zhang five umbrella cover, four groups of fans from the east and west rose to stand behind the seat, the inner envoy two people held the umbrella cover on the seat, and the "armed equipment" stood in the middle of the seat.

Tianqi'an sat in the middle of the main hall, and after the whip sounded again, Honglu Temple sang "enter the class", and after the civil and military ministers bowed three times, they began to perform the court.

One of the reasons for holding a great court meeting today is that the earthquake in Luanzhou, Hebei Province, destroyed countless city walls and houses, and the people suffered casualties and huge losses, so the imperial court had to discuss ways to relieve the disaster and comfort the people; The second is because the Dutch invaded Penghu, built a city to defend themselves, demanded to exchange markets with the Ming Dynasty, and colluded with coastal pirates, sometimes harassing coastal counties.

Although Sun Yueling can be among the court, his rank is still not high, so he stands at the back of the civil ranks. Today's court meeting, on the surface, is a major event of the court to discuss disaster relief and suppression, but he understands in his heart that the Donglin Party decided to take the opportunity of this court meeting to mobilize all the imperial historians and science and Taoist officials to fold their words, focusing on the two imperial historians Zhang Yunru and Fu Zhu, who impeached Wang Wenyan and imprisoned, frustrated his remarks, argued what he was referring to, and tried his best to rescue Wang Wenyan from prison.

This matter was also agreed by Ye Xianggao and ** Xing, and was done at the behest of the two of them. Wang Wenyan is the lifeblood of Donglin, how could the Donglin Party watch the eunuch party do whatever it wants to frame itself through Wang Wenyan, so Wang Wenyan has to protect and save. (To be continued.) )
