What happened to Zhang Ge Lao? He just came into contact with Zhang Hong, and he had just sent He Xinyin out of the capital, and he hadn't done anything, Zhang Siwei went in, how could this be!

Wang Fulin stared at Hu Quan with extremely sharp eyes, and Hu Quan couldn't stand this, so he hurriedly said, "The other little ones don't know." Grandpa Sun is not an ordinary lieutenant, and the small one is only standing at the bottom of the steps from a distance, and the reason why he can hear it is because the small one's ear power is particularly good......

"Enough, no more talking!"

Knowing that he couldn't ask anything, Wang Fulin immediately interrupted Hu Quan, thinking that the Zuodu Yushi who Hu Quan had served in the past didn't know how many secrets he had told such a guy. He didn't hesitate at the moment, cleaned up the desk, and made sure that even if someone stole into his straight room again, he wouldn't find anything, so he went out of the straight room with Hu Quan.

When he stepped into the main hall of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, he saw Chen Wei pacing back and forth, so distracted that he didn't even notice him entering the house. As a last resort, he could only cough lightly.

It was only at this time that Chen Wei seemed to come back to his soul, and immediately said solemnly: "Shiqing, the emperor will hold a court meeting in Wenhua Hall in the afternoon, and you will go with me." ”

Wang Fulin didn't ask the Metropolitan Procuratorate if there was any other stupid question about going to the Imperial Palace, and while agreeing, he tentatively asked, "But there are other bosses who want to go?" ”

Chen Wei hesitated for a moment, thinking that Wang Fulin was one of the absolutely trustworthy people in the Metropolitan Procuratorate that Zhang Juzheng specially pointed out before leaving, and he was also in charge of the imperial history, so he sighed and said: "There are also Wang Shu'an, the secretary of the Ministry of Officials, Yin Shiting, the secretary of the Ministry of Households, Pan Shuilian, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, Li Yihe, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, and probably a few waiters." There should also be people present at the Sixth Science Corridor. ”

There are also a few waiters, Wang Fulin doesn't have to think about it to know, such as Wang Zhen, the left waiter of the Ministry of Officials, Zhang Xueyan, the left waiter of the Ministry of War, and Zeng Shengwu, the right waiter, this will definitely not be less. Chen Sanmo is also indispensable in the matter.

In other words, the people who participated in this court meeting turned out to be the backbone of the Zhang Party, how could this be a coincidence? Could it be that Feng Bao really plans to cover the sky with one hand, and plans to use a spurious reason to take Zhang Siwei down?

Chen Wei saw that Wang Fulin's face had become extremely strange, and he thought that Wang Fulin was just thinking about the mystery behind these candidates, so he beckoned Wang Fulin directly to his side, and then reminded in a very low voice: "You have a preparation in your heart, Feng Shuanglin, the master of ceremonies, said that the high arch was a demon, and he was going to investigate his guilt, and this matter seemed to make Zhang Fengpan angry." ”

Because Chen Wei has a good relationship with the celebrant and eunuch Sun Desheng, and looking at the relationship between Wang Fulin and Zhang Juzheng, he has always regarded people as confidants, not to mention that today's inner court named him to take Wang Fulin to today's court meeting, he only hesitated for a moment, and then relayed what Sun Desheng told him about the cabinet last night.

Wang Fulin didn't have to pretend to be surprised this time, he simply felt that this was like the most lame burlesque. He couldn't believe that Zhang Siwei, who had always slipped and left no flaws, would be calculated by someone with this kind of clumsy and leaky drama, and Feng Bao was really so cooperative-and is this a flaw? A veteran who has a personal relationship with the former first assistant has the manuscript of the former first assistant in his hand, which is a justifiable crime? Feng Bao also asked the little emperor to convene a court meeting with great fanfare, what kind of mess is this, this kind of reckless approach is simply trying to turn the court upside down!

Is it because of the high arch? By the way, the original Minister Wang case was full of loopholes, but Feng Bao even coerced and lured Minister Wang to frame Gao Gong, if it weren't for the ministers of the court and the central government at that time, such as Yang Bo and others, they desperately withstood Feng Bao's pressure and tried the truth, and said that Zhang Juzheng was moved to persuade Feng Bao, Feng Bao was different and almost killed a dignified Shoufu with the excuse of sliding the world?

Gao Gong, the former first assistant whose personality is as prominent as Zhang Juzheng, Wang Fulin has not had a chance to see him so far. However, even if it was just because when Gao Gong was in office, Hu Zongxian was able to give a funeral sacrifice to restore the old official, he had to receive such a favor for his wife. Obviously got Gao Gong's genuine manuscript before, but he concocted a nonsense pirated version to criticize Zhang Juzheng, in addition to wanting to attract Zhang Juzheng to pay attention to the connection between Zhang Siwei and Gao Gong, but he hid the real copy, and also wanted to persuade Zhang Juzheng to make a high posture and compensate for the unlucky former first assistant.

But this time Zhang Juzheng returned to his hometown to bury his father, and there were demons dancing among the Beijing teachers, and even He Xinyin was brought into Beijing. Then, in order to help He Xinyin get out, he asked Xiaobei to pull out the most intense ones, and gave the rest to He Xinyin to make a difference.

Therefore, at this time, when he realized that Feng Bao was going to exhaust himself to the end, he knew that if he didn't grasp it well, he would really be in big trouble this time.

Wang Fulin had never seen Gao Gong, but he knew a lot about his people. Gao Gong, like Zhang Juzheng, is a very practical first assistant, but he is also a stubborn and unscrupulous person. In the face of Emperor Muzong Longqing, an indulgent emperor, Gao Gong chose not to advise, but to put his hand into the inner court, abandoning Feng Bao, a self-disgusted and difficult to control the eunuch Bingbi and the commander of Dongchang, first helped Chen Hong, and then helped Meng Chong, the former and the latter are all eunuchs who lead the emperor to have extravagant pleasures, and the officials of the foreign dynasty have always been extremely disdainful of them.

But it was through this relationship that Gao Gong curried favor with the emperor, made good friends with internal officials, and successfully grasped the internal and external powers.

And this kind of mastery is even more thorough than Zhang Juzheng, because Zhang Juzheng still has to rely on Feng Bao to approve Hong, and the relationship between the two is equal, and sometimes Feng Bao is even higher than Zhang Juzheng. But the relationship between Gao Gong and Chen Hongmengchong, the two celebrant eunuchs who have been in charge of the seal, is completely overwhelming. It must be known that Chen Hong is just that, Meng Chong, the former eunuch of Shangshan, did not understand the ability to play and draft votes at all, and he completely approved how Gao Gong drafted the votes, and he didn't even dare to ask more. And Emperor Muzong Longqing trusted Gao Gong, a teacher, and to some extent, he was better than the eunuchs around him.

This also caused Gao Gong to become more and more bold, and finally after the death of Emperor Longqing, he openly commented in the cabinet that the new monarch was too small and how to run the country, and because Feng Bao became the master of ceremonies, he planned to mobilize hundreds of bureaucrats to prepare to expel Feng Bao, which made Feng Bao take the risk and use slander to move the two queen mothers in the palace, and finally lost to Zhang Juzheng.

In Wang Fulin's view, if Gao Gong is still the first assistant now, he will do his own thing and never put the little emperor in his eyes, and the Wanli Emperor will also liquidate on a large scale, but Gao Gong has only one heir in addition to his old wife, and the scene is not as miserable as the Zhang family in history. In any case, they are both powerful ministers, and in essence, Gao Beard and Zhang Ju are exactly the same people.

Realizing that the court meeting in the afternoon was likely to develop into a very tricky situation, he couldn't help but think about it quickly. But at this time, it doesn't matter if he goes to see Wang Zhen or Yin Zhengmao, don't say that he can't come up with too good reasons, and he is not sure to persuade them to fight back Feng Bao's decision - even if he has it, it means that he chose to carry Feng Bao head-on! He and Zhang Siwei are enemies and not friends, so they can't do this. But instead of cutting the grass and eradicating the roots this time, it is better to cover this matter and wait for the next opportunity to break out.

Therefore, he didn't even show the slightest mood swing in front of Chen Wei, but sincerely asked for a long time to hypothesize that he was going back home, and he would definitely come back before noon, and after being approved, he asked Zheng Yougui to go to the stable to lead his mount out, and hurriedly left the Metropolitan Procuratorate to rush home.

In the morning, he sent a letter to Wang Fulin in the name of delivering snacks, which was obviously when he was supposed to be on duty in the Yamen, but Wang Fulin suddenly ran back, and Xiaobei was naturally startled. Seeing that people didn't even have the time to sit, she told everything about last night at a very fast speed, and she frowned and said, "In addition to Zhang Hong, there are still people who go to the Metropolitan Procuratorate to test you?" I didn't say it on that note before, I found out that someone from the Metropolitan Procuratorate came out last night, and this person was personally watched by Liu Bo, and finally entered Xu Jue's private house. He stayed until this morning, and then came back to report the news. ”

"It turned out to be Xu Jue...... Oh, what a loyal lackey! ”

Wang Fulin was not surprised that Xiaobei would send someone to keep an eye on the Metropolitan Procuratorate at this critical moment, after all, it was a wife's concern for her husband's safety, so when he got this key clue, he untied a knot in his heart, but at the same time, he had another knot. Because Xiaobei dropped the bag of Lu Guangwu and He Xinyin's servants, and they were always in the next room, but they didn't fall for the trick of the incense, but eavesdropped on the meeting between Zhang Hong and He Xinyin from beginning to end, but on the way that Zhang Hong sent someone to send He Xinyin away, he told the letter that recorded these things and handed it over to the servants around him while he was in chaos.

"In this way, Mr. He described the appearance and posture of 'Zhang Cheng' to Zhang Hong, and Zhang Hong seemed to be silent for a long time, so it seems that the person Mr. He saw was probably not Zhang Cheng, but Zhang Hong knew it, and he may be very familiar."

Although Wang Fulin had long expected that those eunuchs in the palace who were exquisitely nine knots would never be so generous to show their identities and see He Xinyin, but when he really determined this, the scope of his suspicion suddenly narrowed down to a very small circle, and the first object of suspicion was Zhang Whale. After all, to be able to mobilize such resources, and with such courage and means, there are definitely not many such ruthless characters in the huge palace.

Wang Fulin chewed on the news and nodded, he was about to go out of the house to find Cheng Naixuan, but as soon as he stepped out, he only heard Xiaobei shouting behind him: "There is another thing, when my mother followed my father in the capital to prepare for the test, she once saved a mute. He went to Beijing to find his niece who was abducted and trafficked, and his mother took pity on him, so she let a tooth woman she brought with her help find someone, who knew that the mute niece was abducted and sent to Feng's house, and Feng Bao gave Xu Jue's Yuan with a few girls, and she was among them. Later, the illiterate mute entered the Xu family as a gatehouse, and the two recognized each other in private, but the Xu family couldn't get in and out. ”

Hearing the news, Wang Fulin couldn't help but glance back at Xiaobei, and seeing the little girl's innocent face, he couldn't help but say with a toothache: "Their uncle and nephew want to come out?" ”

"That girl is serving Zhang Whale's niece, who is Xu Jue's new favorite Aunt Zhang. Whether it's my mother or I, I've never let this girl inquire about the news, but only regularly ask them if they're okay, and I know that this matter is also recent. They can only be used once, you can figure out how to use them later. ”

Wang Fulin smiled bitterly and shook his head: "My mother-in-law is really good at taking precautions...... However, I don't like to let women take risks, so I'll leave it at a later date and wait until I've figured it out. ”

"I'm also a woman, how can I let a woman take risks? I quietly checked Zhang Whale's niece, her mother gave birth to her brother and her for her father, just because of the injury of the body can not regenerate, her father dislikes their mother and daughter, is very mean to them, after her father entered Beijing, Zhang Whale simply gave him five or six concubines, her mother has long fallen out of favor, it was originally a year but eight months in the sick, this time Zhang Whale gave her to Xu Jue as a concubine, in exchange for her mother's medical treatment. Her brother is a bastard who can't be helped, and he knows how to compete with people for women all the time, and Zhang Whale has put all his hopes on her father's two new concubines. ”

Seeing that Wang Fulin frowned, obviously disgusted by these words, Xiaobei said in a low voice: "Zhang Whale has never talked about things in the palace or the court with his family, and most of the Zhang family members were charged later, so it is easy to inquire about this family matter." ”

"I know, whether it's the Zhang family or the Xu family, you continue to pay attention."

Wang Fulin walked out of the house, thinking about the connection between Zhang Whale and Xu Jue, and walked quickly to the side door of Cheng's house. He is a person who often comes and goes, and this is also the inner courtyard of the Cheng family rather than the outer courtyard, so he was only taken aback when he saw his family, and when Mo Xiang hurriedly heard the news, he said with a smile: "The young master is holding back in the study, you can come just in time." ”

"That's good, I'm afraid that he will be too comfortable at home and don't want to go out."

Saying this, when he opened the curtain of the Cheng family's study and went in, Wang Fulin saw Cheng Naixuan's face covered with a book and leaning back on the Taishi chair, so he coughed heavily: "Get up, it's time to work!" ”

Cheng Naixuan jumped up almost all of a sudden. Seeing that it was Wang Fulin, he dropped the book casually, and after stepping forward quickly, he asked, "What, I don't need to pretend to be sick?" ”

"Something is wrong."

Wang Fulin concisely explained the general process of the matter to Cheng Naixuan, and saw that the brows of this person were almost tied into a knot, so he patted the shoulder of this friend and brother, and said in a low voice: "You went back to the Sixth Branch Corridor today to sell your leave, remember to be triumphant in front of Chen Sanmo, but you don't have to say anything." Everyone knows that I have a grudge against Zhang Siwei, and he will be no exception, this time I need him to stand up and continue to fight with me, do you understand? ”

"Isn't this the same way as the last run on Fan Shimei? Why do you keep making me do this kind of posturing, it's not difficult, it's just a downgrade of my style! ”

"There is no danger without difficulty. How many years has Chen Sanmo been in the Six Branches? He is deeply rooted, how many people are on his side, you have just taken office not long ago to go directly to him in the middle of the matter, and you don't know how to die when the time comes. You are not like me, the two old men Chen who are the chief constitution before and after, one is reasonable, and the other follows Yuanfu closely. You are indirectly begging for a living under Chen Sanmo's hands. ”

Wang Fulin angrily beat Cheng Naixuan back, and when he saw that the people immediately shut up and stopped complaining, he reminded in a low voice: "You can handle the proportions yourself, but the afternoon is the court discussion, you must let Chen Sanmo feel that if he doesn't protect Zhang Siwei, he will be even more hostage to me in the future." ”

Cheng Naixuan complained in his mouth, but he did things resolutely, and in less than a quarter of an hour, he put on his official uniform and went out, of course, before leaving, he didn't forget to see his pot-bellied wife. (To be continued.) )
