Chapter 929: The Guilt of Petitioning (I)
When Zhang Sijiao met with Liu Shouyou quietly again in private, and got the news that the eunuch Zhang Ming brought out of the palace, his face suddenly became extremely ugly. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info And after he left in a hurry, Liu Shouyou sneered, thinking that the Zhang brothers really had encountered a natural enemy, and there was no way to take a hairy boy in his early twenties. It's just that when he thought that he had set up nails in Zhang's mansion and was stabbed by Wang Fulin's sister by mistake, he couldn't laugh a little.
The reason why he contacted Zhang Ming and Zhang Wei was because he was unwilling to be a brocade-clothed Wei Ti Shuai who could only kowtow and snort everywhere under Feng Bao. The two celebrant eunuchs promised him that as long as Zhang Ming could become the master of ceremonies, then Zhang Wei would be the second to supervise the East Factory, and he would be provided with convenience at that time, so that he could pick up both the East Factory and the Jinyi Guard. If Zhang Siwei becomes the first assistant of the cabinet again, their internal and external integrated system, just like Feng Bao and Zhang Juzheng now, can control internal and external power.
However, if the news revealed by Zhang Ming this time is true, then Wang Fulin will be too fearful.
"This Wang Fulin was able to step on two boats quietly, Chen Liang and the nail that pierced into Wang's house are really useless!"
Back at the Jinyi Wei Yamen, Liu Shouyou immediately called Liu Baichuan, the commander of the Beizhen Fusi, and Guo Bao, the commander of the Beizhen Fusi, and Guo Bao, who was the one who punished the thousand-household, and told Wang Fulin's latest movements, and then scolded him with a scolding on his face: "Let you keep an eye on Wang Fulin, that's how you do things, and you don't even know when he secretly took refuge with the emperor?" Waste, rice buckets, sake bags and rice bags! If they all do things like you, won't Jinyiwei become deaf and blind? From now on, no matter what method you use, Wang Fulin must keep up with people wherever he goes, and everyone he has met must be recorded and reported! ā
Liu Baichuan and Guo Bao were scolded so much that they didn't dare to raise their heads, but they agreed, and when they returned to Liu Baichuan's straight room, the dejected expressions of the two were swept away, replaced by deep surprise. Liu Baichuan even patted Guo Bao's shoulder very informally, and said with a smile: "I owe you a loss, otherwise when Wang Ye Feihuang Tengda settles the account, I will be finished, and that stick is really not wronged!" ā
Guo Bao was also full of joy, but he even forgot a few words of humility, and immediately discussed with Liu Baichuan how to recruit troops and buy horses, and then attract a group of people, and strive to make Liu Shouyou the head of the air.
If Liu Shouyou knew, his reprimand would make the two leaders of the Beizhen Fusi and the deputy strengthen their determination to follow Wang Fulin closely, but they were afraid that they would turn their backs on him. It's a pity that he doesn't know, and he is still wondering in his heart that once Zhang Siwei really shakes hands with Wang Fulin because of the little emperor's statement in the palace, how can he use the resources of Jinyiwei to consolidate his position.
For example, can Zhang Ming ask the little emperor for instructions, so that he can brazenly place people next to Zhang Siwei and Wang Fulin, so that the two sides will not play tricks. In this way, Jin Yiwei's weak sense of existence can be highlighted, and maybe Zhu Yijun will be able to trust Lu Bing like Emperor Jiajing one day, and reuse him, a loyal commander.
Liu Shou had this careful thought, Zhang Sijiao had no time to pay attention to it, and he didn't even doubt whether Liu Shouyou was using Zhang Ming's guise to casually break a reason to embarrass Zhang Siwei, because in his opinion, Liu Shouyou, although this brocade guard was born in the Macheng Liu family, but the Macheng Liu family has not had any prominent civil officials over the years, and Zhang Ming, as a master of ceremonies and supervisors who are not very high in the ranking, is impossible to refuse a second assistant who is only one step away from the first assistant. Therefore, the probability that these words were indeed instructed by the little emperor is very high.
Because of this, he really felt sad for Zhang Siwei, his brother. After so many years of official career, it has been four years since he entered the cabinet, and in the mind of the little emperor, the importance is not even as important as that of a mere seven-grade superintendent Wang Fulin!
When Zhang Sijiao used all kinds of golden cicada shelling tactics to get rid of the possible Dongchang spies, and finally returned to Zhang's mansion, he heard that Zhang Siwei was still in the cabinet and had not returned, so he immediately ordered in an unquestionable tone: "Send someone to deliver the letter immediately, no matter what method is used, you must let the eldest brother come back today." ā
These days, Zhang Taizheng is grounded, and Zhang Sijiao, the third master, lives in Zhang's mansion, like half a master, arranging visitors and various internal and external affairs in an orderly manner, and everyone is dissatisfied. Therefore, he gave such an order, and although the people knew that it was difficult to do it, they immediately went to find a way. Although the cabinet is not even in the imperial city, but in the important place of the palace, Zhang Siwei has always been on the blacklist that Feng Bao focuses on, but the news was finally sent to Zhang Siwei smoothly. In the evening, Zhang Siwei asked Sanfu Ma Ziqiang to replace him on duty in the cabinet on the grounds of exhaustion, and he went out of the palace and returned home.
When he got off the sedan chair at the second gate, Zhang Siwei found that Zhang Sijiao was actually staying there, and immediately realized that the matter was indeed extraordinary. In front of many subordinates, he couldn't ask directly, and when he saw that Zhang Sijiao actually reached out to support him, he squeezed out a smile and said, "It's been hard work for the third brother these days." ā
"It's all my own brothers, what are you polite to me, big brother?" Zhang Sijiao hugged Zhang Siwei tightly, and after sending his subordinates, when he helped people to the study, he said in a low voice, "Big brother also has to take care of his body, although there are many brothers in the family, but you are the backbone, no matter what the difficulties, you have to hold on." There is a way, keep the clouds open and see the moon. ā
Zhang Siwei didn't know that Zhang Sijiao had prepared himself in advance, and what he was going to say next must be very important, he took a deep breath, and when he stepped into the study, he ordered the two most confidants to guard outside, and as soon as he entered the door, he said: "Don't beat around the bush, just say it, I can bear it." ā
Zhang Sijiao knew that his brother was indeed not a fragile person, otherwise when Gao Gong failed to invoke him into the cabinet, he was beaten by Yin Shidan's blow and had to temporarily return to his hometown. He made up his mind and told what Liu Shouyou heard from Zhang Ming today, and the statement of Wanli Emperor Zhu Yijun. When he finished saying this, he saw that Zhang Siwei had no expression on his face, and he sat there like a clay carved wood sculpture, as if he was crazy. Startled, he hurriedly shouted: "Big brother, things still have a turn for the better, you must not be discouraged!" ā
As if he had been called back to his soul, Zhang Siwei let out a long breath, and then smiled bitterly: "I'm not discouraged. It's not the first time I've been frustrated in my life, and I'm not going to fall into the devil like Da Lang. I just didn't expect that he was only in his early twenties, and it had only been four years since he was admitted to the Jinshi, and he was beaten and kicked by him, creating the current situation. He stood firm and didn't say it for the time being, he was able to take refuge directly with the emperor under the noses of Feng Bao and Zhang Juzheng, counting the days, at that time Zhang Taiyue had not shown his decline, and his bold decision was really too much better than Da Lang. ā
Zhang Siwei still has a grudge buried deep in his heart - why is that not his son? If he had such a son, why worry about it? In contrast, Zhang Taizheng and Zhang Jiazheng, who had high hopes for him and everyone in the Zhang family, were simply too far apart!
Knowing that his brother had not lost his fighting spirit, Zhang Sijiao was a little relieved, and said in a low voice at the moment: "Then what is the plan of the eldest brother next?" Between Wang Fulin and you and Da Lang, although the grudge is not to the bone, it is by no means light, and it is not simply possible to meet with a smile and a grudge. Even if we are willing to make amends, it's hard to guarantee that kid will not open his mouth and even deliberately humiliate you and elevate himself......"
"You're just talking about a subsection." Zhang Siwei waved his hand to interrupt Zhang Sijiao's words, and said in a deep voice, "If Wang Fu Lincoln releases his previous suspicions, it is not a big deal for me to really break the festival and apologize to him, but I am afraid that he will say one thing and do another, you should know that we are walking this road now, which is incompatible with Zhang Taiyue and Feng Shuanglin, you live and die, and you can't be stabbed in the back!" Therefore, we should be gracious and powerful to Wang Fulin, on the one hand, to express the sincerity of apologies, but on the other hand, to show that we have the means to restrain him. ā
Zhang Sijiao's eyes suddenly lit up: "Big brother is talking about ......"
"Third brother, you are a blind leaf, and you can't see Mount Tai. The worst result for me is to be ordered to stay idle like Gao Gong, and then thrown back to his hometown to be guarded by the magistrate, which will affect the family's business, and there is no hope for Da Lang and Erlang in their careers for the time being. But if Wang Fulin's plot is known to Zhang Taiyue and Feng Shuanglin, what do you think the result will be? Hehe, if you can't punish the doctor, treat the old Shangshu and even the high-ranking officials at the level of the squire, Zhang Taiyue and Feng Shuanglin always have to save two faces, so as not to be pointed out by the thousands of people, but they will never be polite to Wang Fulin Xiaoxiao a seven-grade supervision of the imperial history. Think of Liu Tai, who impeached Zhang Taiyue! ā
Zhang Sijiao immediately patted his forehead, and suddenly threw away his burden: "Big brother is right, if the fish dies and the net is broken, Wang Fulin will be damaged far more than us, this is a backup means." However, the eldest brother is the second assistant of the cabinet, so he can't go in person, why don't I go to see Wang Fulin on behalf of the eldest brother, and come to a good story to release the previous suspicions? Although the Wang family of Songmingshan is not short of money, I think he will never refuse to send the great benefits to the door. ā
"And there is news from the Metropolitan Procuratorate today, Chen Wei doesn't know if he noticed something, or Zhang Juzheng has found that Wang Fulin stepped on two boats and transferred away the two superintendent imperial histories of his Guangdong Province. Although he is now on the emperor's ship with one foot, if it weren't for me, he might not be as invincible as before. In this way, you bring Da Lang with you. Speaking of Zhang Taizheng, Zhang Siwei frowned tightly, "Let him clean up the trouble he broke out." With such a son out of the house, he can't care about making a fool of himself! ā
Zhang Sijiao suddenly realized. Since it is rumored that Wang Fulin was very dissatisfied with Zhang Siwei's letter to Wang Daokun and bewitching people to open an ancestral hall, it is said that he said that he wanted to go to Zhang's house to seek justice, so it is indeed the most suitable to let Zhang Taizheng, the initiator, go to the door to ask for the guilt. As for Jang Tae-seong's face...... Hehe, Zhang Siwei, the next generation of the head of the Zhang family in Puzhou, he, the third old man who is busy making money everywhere and making his family thriving, can't take care of his face, where can he take care of Zhang Taizheng's face?
After discussing with Zhang Siwei, when Zhang Sijiao went to the courtyard where Zhang Taizheng lived, and when he saw Zhang Taizheng again after many days, he saw that this nephew, who could be called Fengshen and handsome in the past, was now so thin that his eyes were sunken, and his cheeks seemed to have been cut off, and the whole person was full of a decadent atmosphere. If he had been very good to this nephew in the past, he would have persuaded and comforted him, but at this moment, he really didn't feel that way.
"Look at the way you look! Dare to do it, are you still worthy of being a child of the Zhang family in Puzhou? Zhang Sijiao shouted loudly, seeing Zhang Taizheng raised his head blankly, his eyes were blank, he couldn't help but feel a little bored, and simply turned back and opened the door completely, so that the cold wind and sunlight could all shine into the room, and then turned around and walked in front of Zhang Taizheng, directly dragged the person to the door by the collar, and then let go and threw the person on the ground.
"Manly man, since you have done it, you have to take responsibility, I will give you a quarter of an hour to clean up yourself, at least you will not be embarrassed when you go out."
Zhang Taizheng, who was sitting on the ground, contracted his pupils suddenly, realizing the central meaning of Zhang Sijiao's words. He, the head of the long house, Sun Ming, who has been disliked by his father and uncle, has obviously been grounded, but now Zhang Sijiao says that he can go out? But where can he go out? If he returned to Puzhou, what would his grandfather and his uncles and cousins think of him? But when he went to visit a friend in the capital, his reputation was first ruined by Feng Bao, and now there was that incident, his father would definitely not bear the blame for him in order to clear himself, where else did he have a place to go?
If it was really his father and uncle who forgave him, then it would be okay, but the impatient tone in Zhang Sijiao's words was not even concealed at all, how could he not hear it?
Therefore, seeing that Zhang Sijiao went out and called two trembling girls over, he simply asked bluntly, "Where are you going?" ā
"Go clean up the mess." Zhang Sijiao glanced back at Zhang Taizheng and said in a deep voice, "You have caused your own trouble, go and clean it up yourself, and go to the Wang family to take the blame!" ā
Zhang Taizheng's face suddenly turned to ashes, he never thought that his uncle would throw himself such a cruel choice. However, he knew that his uncle was the same in the mall, and when he was an ally, he could make people feel like a spring breeze, and he only felt that he was the best partner in the world, but once he turned his face, he would become the most terrible enemy. In the past, he thought that he would never face the cruel side of Zhang Sijiao, but now in the face of that undoubted cold eyes, he finally realized that he was wrong. When the two girls entered the house tremblingly, he struggled to his feet, and let them fiddle with them like the walking dead.
Is there anything more disheartening than bowing your head to the person you hate the most, admitting your mistakes and making amends? (To be continued.) )
