In the early years of the Wanli Dynasty, Zhang Juzheng covered the sky with one hand, and the Jiangling Party firmly controlled the government, such as Chen Ji, the imperial history of the Zuodu, Yan Qing, the secretary of the Criminal Department, and the Geng family brothers, who were relatively reading court bigwigs, were also the forces to contain the Jiangling Party, and there was also an unwritten tacit understanding between them.

Chen Wei and Yan Qing said that they had no grudges and no hatred, and even had a faint taste of cooperation in the containment of the Jiangling Party, why did Chen Dutang hate Yan Shangshu to the bone at this time?

It turned out that Chen Wei's friend and political hardcore ally Wu Dui had a heartache attack just now, and he was almost angry to death, which was planted on Yan Qing's words!

In the fifth year of Longqing, Wu Dui served as the governor of Xuanfu, and in the second year of Wanli, he was the servant of the military department, and the right was the imperial history of the capital, and in the fifth year of Wanli, he was promoted to the governor of Xuanda, and he was another important border minister who held great power after Wang Chonggu and Fang Fengshi.

He summoned Xu Wenchang as a guest, praised the opportunity, strengthened the border defense, and at the same time implemented Zhang Juzheng's policy towards Mongolia to the letter, and made great contributions to the matter of paying tribute, and was a hero in maintaining the northern defense of the Ming Dynasty.

Wu Dui learned that I was old, sick, and everything, and relied on the talented Mrs. Sanniangzi, so he strengthened his contact with Sanniangzi.

The main battle faction of the Mongolian side led by Huang Taiji repeatedly provoked, but Wu Dui was not fooled, but directly approached Sanniangzi to deal with it.

San Niangzi was an excellent politician who realized that only by actively maintaining friendly relations with the Ming Dynasty could the tribute city be long-lasting. Therefore, she tried her best to restrain the tribes from using knives and guns, and those who violated them were severely punished; If other tribes that are beyond the control of the Tumut Department plan to plunder, they will send people to transmit information to the Ming army in time.

The Tumut tribe is the largest tribe in the grassland, and its power is like Zhongtian, what can be hidden from them on the grassland? Wu Dui got the military intelligence of the three ladies, repeatedly set up ambushes, and beat the invading Mongolian iron cavalry to lose their armor and abandon their armor, and won many major victories, and the Mongolian iron cavalry could not cross the Great Wall for more than ten years.

Therefore, Wu Dui and the three ladies established a very good personal relationship, and even recognized her as a goddaughter, and gave her many valuable gifts such as "Eight Treasure Crowns", "Hundred Phoenix Cloud Clothes", "Red Bone Duo Brocade Skirt", etc., and the three ladies also often came to Xuanhua to visit Wu Dui, and every time they came, they stayed in Wu Dui's military camp.

The talented Xu Wenchang witnessed the demeanor of the three ladies, and happily waved a poem for her: The Han army competed to see the embroidered crotch, and 100,000 mink and a girl. Evoke Mulan's affinity and comparison, see who is the best of him with arrows?

The friendship between Wu Dui, Sanniangzi and Xu Wenchang promoted peace in the frontier and was supported by the people of the Han and Mongolian ethnic groups, and it became a good story for a while.

However, just like the three ladies of the main peace faction on the Mongolian side and Huang Taiji of the main battle faction, there are also some ill-intentioned guys on the Ming side who are crooked about me answering the tribute, because the Jiangling Party led by Zhang Juzheng is strongly suppressed, and these forces do not dare to oppose it head-on, so they set their sights on the exchanges between Wu Dui and the three ladies, intending to use the three indiscriminate means of pouring sewage to achieve their ulterior purposes.

At the same time, there are some strange rumors about this matter on the Mongolian side - needless to say, it has nothing to do with Huang Taiji of the main battle faction.

The strange thing is that Wu Dui did not refute these rumors head-on, maybe he disdained to ignore them, maybe he had other considerations, in short, in the seventh year of Wanli, he asked to be transferred to the Beijing Metropolitan Procuratorate, left the important task of border defense, and no longer had direct contact with the three ladies.

Does Wu Dui really have a personal affair with the third lady? He never explained this to anyone.

But as long as people who have a little friendship with him will scoff at this rumor, because Wu Dui has never been a good woman, and like Chen Biao, he does not accept concubines, and he is rigid and humorous, sitting and reading all day long, like clay carving and wood sculptures, if such a person can attract the three ladies of the grassland who are always talking about hunting and the surname is enthusiastic and unrestrained, it is a big joke in the world!

Only Chen Wei, who has the best relationship with Wu Dui, vaguely found that his good friend seemed to have some secrets that he couldn't say to outsiders in his heart, so he would rather be wronged than come out to refute...... No, Yan Qing immediately overturned the hornet's nest, what a "goddaughter", what a night stay on the same boat, scolding Qin Lin, but every word seemed to be pumping Wu Dui's face, it was simply in front of Emperor Wanli and the civil and military ministers to point at Sang and scold Huai: "Who are you coaxing Wu Dui?" Recognize the third lady as a goddaughter, and stay overnight in your barracks, hahaha, everyone is not a child anymore......"

Wu Dui originally had a heart disease, this kind of person with a serious surname was extremely injured when he was angry, and he immediately fell ill and lay down, if Qin Lin hadn't made a timely move, he was afraid that he would have given away his life!

"Yan Shangshu, what do you mean by deliberately distorting and slandering and slandering the country's dry city?" Chen Wei waved his sleeve robe and scolded Yan Qing angrily.

Knowing that he had inexplicably caused trouble, Yan Qing's face was red and white for a while, and he didn't expect to make Wu Dui so angry that he almost died in a few words, and he said in his heart that this grievance was too big, so he didn't choose to say anything in a hurry: "This official impeached Qin Lin, the commander of the Jinyi Guard, and didn't say Wu Dutang." ”

Qin Lin lowered his head and kept his breath down, as if he had nothing to do with him, in fact, his mouth was about to smile crooked-Yan Shangshu, Yan Shangshu, do you know what it means to get darker and darker?

Zhang Juzheng shook his head with a smile, nodded again, and whispered to Wang Guoguang, the secretary of the Ministry of Officials, and Zeng Shengwu, the secretary of the Ministry of War, who was beside him: "Qin Lin, this kid is really lazy, and he called Yan Qing, Chen Wei, and Wu Dui to join him. ”

Although the words are casual, the color of appreciation is clear, and it is extraordinary to be able to go around the criminal department and the imperial history of the left and right together in front of the emperor and the civil and military ministers in the court.

Sure enough, Chen Wei listened to Yan Qing's explanation, and his face turned black with anger, Wu Dui's fainting involved a famous character, and it was better not to pick and choose, but Yan Qing gave him three hundred taels of silver here, wouldn't he deduct on Wu Dui's head more and more?

Chen Wei couldn't wait to swallow Yan Qingping in one bite, and said in a fierce voice: "What General Qin said, every word is reasonable, and the barbarian customs are very different from my Central Plains Han land, so adapting measures to local conditions, after all, it is for the sake of national peace and security, how can the speaker live the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain?" ”

Qin Lin snickered, and his stomach was about to throb and ache.

How can Chen Wei and Qin Lin have a half-hearted relationship? But at this moment, in order to protect Wu Dui, Chen Wei has to protect Qin Lin with an iron heart, and he also has a relationship between men and women when he appeases the barbarians, and stays on the same boat (camp) overnight.

Chen Jiong, who is the imperial history of the left capital of the Imperial Palace, spoke, and a number of deputy imperial historians, Yudu imperial historians and Kedao officials jumped out to accuse Yan Qing, these officials will never be accustomed to the actual ministry officials, there are people who are not afraid of derogation, and they have nothing to do to impeach Zhang Juzheng.

"Your Majesty, the minister who participated in the impeachment of the Criminal Department's Shangshu Yan Qing misbelieved people's words and abused the power of impeachment!" Inspector Yu Shiqiu happily jumped out and fired the cannon.

The royal history of the capital Wang Seal also said: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that Yan Laoshangshu is biased and biased, and it is really not suitable to be in charge of the law department." ”

Zhang Gongyu is even more deserved: "Weichen is brave, please ask Your Majesty to tell the old man Zhishi." ”

As a science and Taoist official, how idle he usually is, if he doesn't come out to find a sense of existence at this time, then he won't be panicked?

Yan Qing was bombarded indiscriminately, Rao was used to seeing strong winds and waves, and he was also smashed by bricks and shrunk his head, and he was there with a red face, not daring to say anything at all.

Yan Qing also has friends in the DPRK, but at this time, he is wise to protect his life, after all, Wu Dui was almost angry to death just now, and the tragic situation won a lot of sympathy.

Even Liu Shouyou and Zhang Whale, who didn't want to bring down Qin Lin all the time, also came to a turtle skill, and when they had to shrink their heads, they shrank their heads, and closed their mouths without making a sound.

Yes, Qin Lin doesn't need to say a word anymore, every impeachment that Yan Qing made against him was completely refuted by the Qing gossip officials headed by Chen Wei, and poor Yan Qing was completely submerged in the sea of saliva...... Yan Qing was also a hard-hitting character, but who made Wu Dui faint and sympathize with the scene? It is a miracle that the dignified Shangshu of the Criminal Department was scolded bloody.

Emperor Wanli on the throne only felt funny, if Zhang Juzheng and Xu Wenbi were to argue for Qin Lin, this emperor who likes to be suspicious must have other ideas, but now he has never formed a party and has nothing to do with Qin Lin, and Chen Wei, the left capital Yushi Chen Wei, stepped forward and started a fight with Yan Qing, Wanli's mood was naturally completely different.

"Chen Wei is known for being honest and upright, even he speaks up for Qin Aiqing, it seems that Qin Aiqing is really loyal to the country!" Wanli watched Yan Qing and Chen Wei arguing, and smiled again and again.

Only if there is a dispute between the courtiers, can the authority of the emperor be highlighted, if the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty are as monolithic as the Jiangling Party, no matter what Zhang Juzheng says, he is a "minister's seconding", what kind of taste does he have in front of the emperor?

"Okay, okay," Wanli finally spoke, pressed his hand down and pressed it weakly, and waited for the courtiers to calm down, and then said: "Yan Shangshu lost his hand in the inspection and misbelieved people's words, presumably there must be, but he also cares about the country, after all, it is not a bad intention!" General Qin is a human being, I believe it, the subordinates of the Jin family in Yingzhou in the East China Sea, when the first emperor was my Ming henchman, it is a credit to be able to appease him, General Qin is good at soothing Yi, I am very relieved! ”

Qin Lin knew that Wanli would not really punish Yan Qing, after all, he was one of the few forces in the court to contain the Jiangling Party, hum, provoke me, let's play slowly in the future, this time I will ask you to eat a few catties of saliva from Yanguan, next time it will not be so cheap!

Yan Qing wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, he never dreamed that he would be so disgraced.

Qin Lin waited for Wanli to finish speaking, and quickly pretended to be grateful, and tried to squeeze out a few tears, and shouted long live: "Thank you for your trust!" Weichen dares not to be ruthless, in order to repay His Majesty in case! ”

Xu Wenbi and Zhang Juzheng watched Qin Lin's over-the-top performance, and they all laughed.

But Qin Lin didn't lie to them in the first place, as long as he coaxed Wanli.

No, Wanli nodded with great satisfaction: "Qin Aiqing's loyalty, I already know." The Jin clan is both powerful in the East China Sea and intimidating the barbarians, so why should I be stingy with the canonization? Mr. Zhang, what official position do you say she will be given? ”

"The minister thinks that a consolation envoy is appropriate," Zhang Juzheng replied with a smile.

Wanli nodded: "Well, General Qin is good at Fuyi, so let him and Zhang Whale go to spread my will." ”

Oh also, from the three products of the consolation envoy, in addition to the equivalent of the king of Annam, is the biggest toast! Qin Lin smiled secretly, and said in his heart that Jin Yingji should be satisfied this time, she is good, and I am good......
