Chapter 184: The Emperor is Shengming, and the Prince is Wise

Ma Wensheng, the secretary of the ministry, and Ma Shangshu also wrote a book!

It is said that good things don't go out, and bad things spread thousands of miles, but for those bigwigs in the ministry, no matter whether it is good or bad, as long as they make a move, because there are countless pairs of eyes watching, it will spread to all the yamen in an instant. Therefore, Ma Wensheng, who had served as the secretary of the Ministry of War for many years, also wrote along with those imperial histories, which naturally caused an uproar. After all, the secretary of the ministry is the most important position below the cabinet, and has always been known as the head of the six ministries. This one is in the book, and the villain can still hide?

Not to mention how happy the earliest imperial histories in the book were, even others couldn't help but wonder if they should attach the tail to pick up a ready-made bargain. Although according to the news revealed by the cabinet clerk, the bullet seals of the batch of imperial history books three or four days ago have not yet been sent to the cabinet, and they should be detained by the celebrant and delayed, or simply left in the imperial front, but there is a way that the stone is shattered and belongs to the imperial history, and the more hard bones can be gnawed, the more strong the imperial history, which has become an iron law. So, the next evening, when Youshunmen finished the chapter, a number of people sent in a good article that they had carefully concocted.

However, unlike the delay of the celebrant eunuch that most people think, Xiao Jing, the eunuch who held the seal of the celebrant before, played it to Emperor Hongzhi in the Dongnuan Pavilion of the Qianqing Palace almost as soon as he saw those few folds. And because of the previous earth-shattering case, Li Rong slightly restrained his posture of relying on the old and selling the old in front of Xiao Jing, although he faced the snowflakes like bullets this time, he knew the truth about the prince's skipping class, and naturally he would not fall into the well.

At this time, several ceremonial eunuchs stood in front of the imperial court to play those that had been abridged, and after several major national events, Xiao Jing selected Ma Wensheng's excerpt, and even selected the best passage of his Chinese collection to read it, and when he glimpsed Emperor Hongzhi's face sinking like water, he spread out those imperial history bullets that he had received today on the table, lowered his eyelids and said: "In addition to Ma Shangshu, there are also the imperial histories of the Imperial Inspectorate and the various sections of the Imperial Court that mention this matter, a total of seven. ”

After being silent for a while, Emperor Hongzhi said lightly: "In addition to these, all cabinet votes will be issued." ”

"Yes, slave and maid."

Since Liu Shanlingchi, the servant of the Qianqing Palace, although the top bosses of the ceremonial supervisor have all escaped the catastrophe of watching the punishment with their own eyes by accompanying Zhu Houzhao to the Wenhua Palace, everyone is now a lot more cautious, even Xiao Jing Li Rong, who is the oldest, claims to have changed from an old slave to a slave. Seeing that Emperor Hongzhi didn't seem to have any other instructions, Xiao Jing took the lead in cleaning up the folds on the table, and called a few celebrants to write the papers, and packed them one by one with a box, but only Ma Wensheng and those imperial historians remained on the small table without moving. Although the emperor did not say it explicitly, these folds were obviously left in the middle and did not need to be voted by the cabinet. In addition to the matter involving the prince's family, the Zhang family, this situation is extremely rare.

However, before leaving, Li Rong suddenly bowed again and said: "Your Majesty, the prince left early when Mr. Li was lecturing in the Wenhua Palace, and there are very few people who know the truth, but now the imperial history has suddenly heard about it, and the source of this news is really very suspicious." The matter involved the prince, and the slave asked the emperor for permission to let Dongchang check it out, so as not to let others blindly talk nonsense and hurt the emperor Shengming, and the prince was wise. ”

The factory guards of the Hongzhi Dynasty are relatively low-key, but there is no need to ask for advice in the nature of these facts, but Wang Yue has always been a surname who is better than less than one thing, and he is upright, and he gets along well with civil officials. Catching a glimpse of Chen Kuan next to him, Wang Yue was stunned for a moment, and when Chen Kuan shook his head at himself, he barely held back.

"Okay, go check it out."

Emperor Hongzhi was originally a little suspicious, but as soon as Li Rong said it at this moment, he was even more moved in his heart, and immediately nodded. At this time, Xiao Jing suddenly seemed to remember something, patted his head with a sigh, and also stepped forward and saluted deeply: "The emperor forgives the sin, the slave and maid forgot one more thing just now." It's not big, but it stands to reason that it should be played. Wang Shouren, director of the Military Selection Department of the Ministry of War, wrote to Xiyuan to observe the avant-garde training of the government army. ”

Wang Shouren? Who is Wang Shouren?

Just looking at Emperor Hongzhi's slightly frowning blank eyes, Xiao Jing knew that the Son of Heaven did not remember such a person, so he said softly: "Back to the emperor, Wang Shouren is the son of Wang Hua, the right attendant of the Ministry of Rites, and the twelfth year of Hongzhi Jinshi, who has written about the affairs of the nine sides, and is quite enthusiastic about military affairs......"

"Even if he is enthusiastic, he will inevitably overstep his authority in this matter!" Emperor Hongzhi interrupted Xiao Jing's words unhappily, and then said even more impatiently, "From the imperial history to the head of the military department, all of them are serious Jinshi, not staring at those major events of the national economy and people's livelihood, only staring at a young Xu Xun What is he doing?" ”

Although the emperor did not explicitly say Ma Wensheng, Li Rong, who had always had a bad relationship with Ma Wensheng, still couldn't help but feel happy in his heart, and immediately smiled: "Long live the lord still doesn't know the surnames of these imperial histories, and the seamless eggs have to be stared at twice, not to mention that Xu Xun is young, and he can't help but be reckless and leave flaws, and it is not surprising that he is targeted by them." This Wang Shouren expected the same......"

This time, Xiao Jing coughed lightly, interrupted Li Rong's words, and immediately said with a smile: "Gonggong Li guessed wrong this time. The emperor, the slave asked Wang Yue to send someone to inquire about this matter, Xu Xun said that he went to the military department of the military department to take office, but was squeezed by several dissatisfied subordinate officials, and then it happened that the Dingguo Gong died, and the military department Shangshu Liu responded to the invitation of the Ministry of Rites and borrowed Wang Shouren to the Dingguo Mansion for funeral......"

Xiao Jing explained the cause and effect in an orderly manner, and said that Xu Xun had gone to consult the art of war during Wang Shouren's stay in the Dingguo Mansion, and seeing that Emperor Hongzhi's frowning brows gradually relaxed, he smiled and said: "Therefore, this Wang Shouren should not necessarily be malicious, he first refuted Liu Shangshu's book, and he didn't want to be so bold, so he directly wrote to the emperor." To say that Xu Xun is young, although he only gave him 500 people, it doesn't matter if he tosses around, but now he has become the target of public criticism. ”

The last time he refused Li Rong's request for Ruisheng to come to the Qianqing Palace to serve, and sent Ruisheng to congratulate Xu Xun, Xiao Jing now asked for the surname and sent this little guy who had served Xu Xun in the past to walk on both sides with a message. When Ruisheng came back and said about Wang Shouren, he was immediately moved, and at this time he said that he would come out, and when he saw that the emperor was hesitating, he thought for a moment, and did not continue to add oil and vinegar. When he withdrew from the main hall with the other three, Li Rong took two quick steps with a smile and caught up with him.

"Father-in-law Xiao, you are really very protective of the prince of Xing'an!"

"Hey, where can I say that I can protect it, as soon as the East Palace said that a eunuch came over and made noise in our family's ears, if there is no end to this matter, I am afraid that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will personally summon our old bones." Xiao Jing glanced at Li Rong with a smile, and then said meaningfully, "Speaking of which, our family seems to have seen two excerpts of impeachment of Ma Wensheng and Dai Shan, and I don't know why they disappeared in a blink of an eye. ”

Li Rong didn't want to be so fast-eyed, but he was still seen by Xiao Jing, and he laughed dryly twice and then turned over. And the two of them knew each other, and Wang Yue, who was behind, couldn't help but ask Chen Kuan why he had to hold him first, and Chen Kuan couldn't help but shake his head at him.

"Lao Wang, don't know all day long to protect those civil officials, the holy will is already so clear, you should check it. It's better to have someone like you who does things in a measured way to check it than for the emperor to come up and let others out! As for the festival between Gonggong Li and Ma Shangshu, we can't care about it, and we can't take care of it! ”

There was something in his heart, after the ceremonial supervisor Zhu Dajue retreated, Emperor Hongzhi couldn't help but sit down, but after all, he was impetuous and couldn't settle down, and almost planned to call people into Dan again. After thinking about it, he remembered that Empress Zhang was disgusted with the medicine yesterday and refused to take the medicine, so he stood up and said goodbye to Kunning Palace. After a few promised to come up and serve, changed their clothes and put on a thick fox fur, he walked out of the main hall to take a look, but found that it was snowing, and was immediately surprised and delighted, and immediately waved his hand to signal that he did not need to shoulder the ball, and walked over like this.

Although he was full of interest, but along the way, even if he wore deerskin boots, when he arrived at Kunning Palace, he couldn't help but be cold. After entering the main hall and taking off his fur coat gloves to warm his forehead and ears, he rubbed his hands and asked a female official Empress Zhang about the condition of the queen, and when he learned that it was fine, he nodded, but ordered not to be alarmed, and quietly walked in alone. After retreating from the several palace maids outside the Dongnuan Pavilion, he was about to go in, but he heard the voices of Zhu Houzhao and Empress Zhang from inside.

At this time, it was almost evening, and he didn't want Zhu Houzhao to come to visit his mother at this time, so he was relieved and liked for a while, so he actually stood outside the door. The voice inside faintly penetrated through the gap in the curtain, and the dignified emperor actually sounded like this.

"Queen Mother, did you tell your father!"

"This is a major national event, when did you see the queen mother intervene in your father's decision-making decisions? Don't worry, according to my meaning, naturally drag all those imperial histories out of the court staff, but your father will not agree! However, you have to believe your father, those imperial histories like to talk nonsense and slander people, and your father is the most discerning and will not wronged people...... Why, is it possible that you are in the palace, so Xu Xun will still find ways to send a letter in and complain to you? ”

"How can he, if he is so unproductive, I don't bother to take care of him!" Zhu Houzhao's voice in the middle suddenly raised, "I wanted Xing Anbo to bully him at the beginning, but he didn't let me sue my father, let alone now!" If you want me to say, those royal histories that will be behind the backs are the most hateful, and everyone who has the ability to show off their real skills is more than a game! I just feel wronged, Mr. Li said to me last time, as long as I memorize the books that should be memorized, I learn the things that should be learned, and it doesn't matter how long it takes to learn, it just depends on whether I am interested or not, why are they verbose! If someone instigates me to skip school, is it because in their eyes, I, the prince, is so useless, and I listen to what others say? ”

Listening to the conversation between the mother and son, Emperor Hongzhi stood for a while, and his heart was very satisfied for a while. The fact that his wife was able to blow the pillow wind in front of him, and that his son could see the key to the impeachments of Yushi, was really happier than anything else. It is enough for his wife and son to be filial in the people's house, but in the royal family, only his wife and son are wise, and he can really put his mind at ease!

That being the case, it's time to reconcile the limelight!
