In Hangzhou City, Zhao Wenhua, Hu Zongxian, and Le and the three of them quarreled again. The pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info the imperial court has a will to let Zhao Wenhua return to Beijing to face the saint, he can't avoid such a big thing as the flood, and everyone has already prepared, but there is one more thing to deal with before leaving, that is, how to deal with the flood this time.

For the sake of the royal family's face, and because the power of these big families tied together is really great, Ma Qiao can't be killed now, which the three of them agree, but it doesn't matter if it's a small day kill, but such a big flood, Yu Chao and the people must always have an explanation.

Zhao Wenhua meant to report that a river embankment was in disrepair, and the river yamen embezzled public funds, cut down those unlucky eggs, and first vented the anger of the people.

Hu Zongxian has some different opinions, not that he feels uncomfortable by killing a good person by mistake, but that after all, this river supervisor is the person of the river governor, and the river governor is also a feudal official of Zheng Erpin, and the person who pushed him will die instead, and Hu Zongxian will inevitably deal with him in Jiangsu and Zhejiang in the future, so he has a feud, which is not conducive to his work, not that he is afraid of him, but he just feels that it is not worth it. However, Hu Zongxian only said what he thought, after all, he was pulled by Zhao Wenhua, and it was really inappropriate to slap the table with Zhao Wenhua.

Le He slapped the table, whether the river supervisor dies or not has little to do with him, but the eunuch is a person in the palace, and this eunuch will definitely not survive if he reports it like this, and the big eunuch who is released is bullied like this, do you take Huang Jin in your eyes? Although he Lehe is a foreign minister, his son and backer are both internal ministers, Zhao Wenhua still wants him to co-sign, if this name is signed, will it be mixed up in the future?

Lehe told Hu Zongxian, Zhao Wenhua didn't understand, but he really had no choice, he Zhao Wenhua was the main force of the Yan Party, and his reputation had long been stinking on the street, Shilin and the people were extremely disdainful of him, this time the embankment was destroyed and the fields were flooded, and the people who didn't know the truth about eating melons could be counted on his head, plus this time the rice was changed to mulberry and offended so many people, and the whale oil business also made many colleagues red-eyed, one is not good, the court is very likely to detain the black pot on his head for the sake of the royal face, and when the time comes, he will be cut off as a corrupt official, not only calmed down the people's anger, but also allowed hundreds of officials to share the whale oil business under his name, and the bad things that appeared in the process of changing rice to mulberry can also rely on him, which is a happy ending for all. Zhao Wenhua had a faint premonition that it was very likely that the imperial court would do this.

In the end, Zhao Wenhua overrode public opinion, and willfully invited out the Wang Ming Banner, whether you sign it or not, anyway, the biggest Lao Tzu killed this time is a five-pin, and the Wang Ming Banner has the right to cut down the officials below the fourth grade first, and the music is not on it, so he directly ordered these people to be arrested, including a five-grade river supervision, a big eunuch who was assigned to supervise, and thirteen assistant imperial examinations to know the county.

Xiaotian rushed back from Songjiang and just entered the gate of the Weaving Bureau, and saw such a scene.

Yang Jinshui and Huang Shi led one hundred and ten armed eunuchs to confront Zhao Wenhua's personal soldiers. These pro-soldiers, you look at me, I see that none of you know what to do, these eunuchs are not even men, it is easy for them to catch and kill, but after all, this is a person in the palace, even if the eunuch is guilty, it can only be executed by the inside, and the ministers are not allowed to point fingers.

Xiao Tian hurriedly stepped forward and said, "What happened, which yamen are you, dare to break into the weaving bureau with arms, don't you have a head?" ”

Yang Jinshui and Huang Shi also secretly breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that Xiao Tian had led Zhu Qi back, and said: "The two of you came back just in time, he Zhao Wenhua bullied the head of the Weaving Bureau, bullied him to the palace, and wanted to take Liu Quan away."

Xiao Tian asked to understand the situation, and also felt that it was very tricky, and said to the leading officers and soldiers: "You go back first, whether Liu Quan is guilty or not, it is not your turn to arrest it, this is Zhu Qiye in the Thirteenth Taibao of Jinyiwei, and it is also the matter of the Seventh Master to arrest him, and I and Yang Gonggong Huang Gonggong will go to Zhao Wenhua to theorize."

The officer had already wanted to leave, but at this time, Xiaotian gave the steps, and there was no reason why he couldn't get down, and said: "Since the Jinyi guard is on the errand, we won't have much to do, so we will leave." And when he had finished speaking, he led his men away.

In all dynasties, eunuchs and Wenchen are two political groups with a needle against each other, and Wenchen can work together in the face of eunuchs, not to mention when eunuchs are against Wenchen? You must know that among the eunuchs, at most, they are competing for favor, and usually those of them who have no home are united. Although Huang Jin is low-key and obedient, he is pressed by Lu Bing on weekdays, but no matter how he says it, he is also an internal minister, even if he is the most honest internal minister in the history of the Ming Dynasty, he is also an internal minister after all, and whoever treats him as a soft persimmon will miscalculate.

This Huang Jin is a kind person, he is very good to these eunuchs in the palace on weekdays, as the saying goes, who brings what soldiers, this Yang Jinshui and Huang Shi are also extremely protective of the eunuchs below, and these eunuchs are still maintained when they make mistakes on weekdays, and now they want to be scapegoats, how can they bear this breath?

Huang Shi said: "Le Gongzi and Yang Gonggong go to Zhao Wenhua to reason, no matter what, it has to drag on for a few days, and he can't be crucified for the crime of disrepairing the river embankment, otherwise it will be difficult to do, our family will go back to Beijing to see the godfather and let the old man be the master."

Of course, the two had no opinion, Yang Jinshui went to Zhao Wenhua to theorize angrily, and Xiaotian was afraid that the two would fight, so he had to go with him.

Zhao Wenhua had already heard the report from his subordinates, and at this time, he was naturally not surprised to see Yang Jinshui and Xiaotian, and said: "Father-in-law Yang, Huaizhen, sit down."

Yang Jinshui opened his mouth and said: "Lord Zhao, our family is here to ask you, what does it mean, the matter of destroying the embankment and flooding the fields is obvious, I don't believe that Lord Zhao doesn't know what's going on, and the master Long Live Lord also knows what's going on, you please come out with the king's order banner at this time, and set such a charge, do you have to give our family an explanation, just let you kill Liu Quan, how can you let our family talk back to the ancestors."

Zhao Wenhua sighed; "Alas, you know the matter of destroying the embankment and flooding the fields, and the emperor also knows, but you and I both know that it is about the reputation of the heavenly family, and this matter cannot be known to the world, but such a big flood, I have to give an explanation to the victims and the people, and I really have no choice."

Yang Jinshui slapped the table and said, "Zhao Wenhua!" No one is urging you, what are you doing in such a hurry to find a scapegoat, not to mention that there are more scapegoats, why do you just report that the embankment is in disrepair, what kind of intentions are you?"

Xiao Tian seemed to understand, and said: "Think about it, the river embankment is in disrepair, the river yamen and the supervising eunuchs, together with the thirteen magistrates, are greedy for money to repair the river, it is indeed the best reason, Lord Zhao is so anxious, even the royal flag has been invited out, isn't it because he is afraid that he will be the scapegoat?" ”

Zhao Wenhua smiled bitterly and did not speak, clearly acquiescing.

Yang Jinshui is not stupid, he can understand the joints at a point, hehe laughed a few times and said: "Lord Zhao is afraid of being a scapegoat, isn't he afraid of offending the ancestors?" ”

Zhao Wenhua said: "I'm afraid! How can I not be afraid, it's just the lesser of two evils, I also have no way, offend Huang Gonggong, the official is not expected to be, but maybe he can also mix up and return to his hometown, Huang Gonggong is merciful, even if I kill me, I will let my family go, but as a scapegoat, it is indeed dead, at most, the past dynasties are just to destroy the nine clans, but only I am Ming, but I can punish the ten clans."

Xiaotian originally didn't have a good impression of Zhao Wenhua, but now he feels very sympathetic to him, hey! Who said that a corrupt official is easy to be, if he is a clean official, this scapegoat will not be his turn anyway, but who made him famous and stinky on the street? The feudal dynasty is not good at this, don't care if this crime is reasonable or not, as long as you are a corrupt official and have a bad reputation, any crime can be deducted from your head, on the contrary, if you are a Hai Rui, how many people you kill are the fault of others, how can honest and honest people make mistakes?

It's not easy to be a corrupt official.

Yang Jinshui also understood, speaking of which, the relationship between the two people is usually good, and he said: "Lord Zhao's difficulty, our family understands, but the people in this palace can't let you be bullied in vain, and later our family will also write a letter to the ancestor, tell him your hardships, and strive to let you have a good death."

Xiao Tian also said: "Lord Zhao, we have always been partners, and the cooperation is quite pleasant, but after all, the boy has the position of the boy, in this matter, I must stand on the side of Yang Gonggong, and I hope you can understand."

Zhao Wenhua said: "I understand, if one day my Zhao Wenhua is in a different place, I hope you can still give me a stick of incense."
