Chapter 42: The Wrath of the Son of Heaven

Wen Zhenmeng once again set his eyes on Wang Zaijin, seeing that the other party was still expressionless, it seemed that the other party really wouldn't give him any hints, but fortunately he let go and said: "Of course, it's not just a hidden secret, it's just a crime of deceiving superiors and subordinates, and making a king!" ”

Glancing at Wen Zhenmeng, Wang Zaijin was very surprised, who made Wen Zhenmeng angry like this?

The crime of making a king, this kind of thing is not something that can be said easily, you must know that this is a big crime! Once it is confirmed, the punishment will definitely not be light, you must know that Wen Zhenmeng is not impeaching in the court, but really thinks so. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

In the imperial court, due to various factors, the charges of impeachment are often not accurate, but if you say it in private, you really see it this way.

"And this kind of thing?" Emperor Chongzhen's eyes lit up, and he said with a smile: "Let's hear it, I'm very interested in this kind of thing!" ”

Wen Zhenmeng once again confirmed that the identity of Emperor Chongzhen is not simple, ordinary people heard this kind of thing, and hid out early, who would be willing to mix in it? Even if you want to know what's going on, you're cautiously inquiring in private.

Like Emperor Chongzhen, he came up by himself, and he looked very interested, obviously relying on it, and he didn't care about the impact of this matter at all. Wen Zhenmeng also had a little information in his heart, maybe this time the matter would really fall on the young man opposite.

"Here's the thing, I heard the news a few times ago when I entered Beijing, and many of the affected Baixin were driven out of the capital!" Wen Zhenmeng pondered for a moment before he said slowly.

"Kicked out of BJ City?" Emperor Chongzhen frowned, looked at Wen Zhenmeng and said, "What drove out of the city?" ”

With a deep sigh, Wen Zhenmeng said resentfully: "It's not a trick that those officials came up with, there are many people affected by the explosion of Wang Gongchang, the incident happened in the capital, there are many rich people and dignitaries, and there are naturally many poor people." ”

"The dignitaries and dignitaries have been affected by the disaster, and their families are rich, but what about the poor people? And they became victims! Wen Zhenmeng continued: "The house is gone, and there are people in the family who have died, and some people can't even eat. ”

"The government came forward to provide disaster relief, but the money and food were not much, at most, each household had finished distributing some food." Wen Zhenmeng looked at Emperor Chongzhen and said: "The victims can't survive, all of them poured into BJ City, some begged along the streets, and some went to the yamen to find an explanation. ”

"It's peaceful inside the capital, but the victims outside the city are about to change their children. The common people can't survive, and those businessmen still collude with the government and hoard Juqi, look at how many businessmen are exchanging grain for land? Their hearts are dark, and an acre of good land is just to give some food. What can ordinary people do? If you don't change it, are you waiting to starve to death? ”

"He who has land can sell it, but what about those who do not? Then you can only sell your sons and daughters. Go out of town and see, how many traffickers are waiting there? How many people are forcing good people to become prostitutes? ”

"What about the government? Not only did they not care, but they also did not let the victims into the city, what is the disturbance outside? No one cares about these officials! ”

Emperor Chongzhen's face had long been gloomy, there was such a thing? Kicking refugees out? The government and businessmen colluded to squeeze the refugees who were already living in poverty, why didn't they get any news at all? I'm still complacent!

The inside of the capital is still prosperous, and it seems that it has not been affected by the catastrophe, but it is already like this outside?

"See what those people are spending their money on?" Wen Zhenmeng pointed to the street outside and said: "Repair the houses for the rich, distribute disaster relief money and food to them, and rebuild the streets for them, but what about the disaster victims?" They can't even eat! ”

Wen Zhenmeng said this, stood up again, and slapped the table angrily.

"The dignified court, so many officials, no one has played this matter to the emperor!" Wen Zhen Mengyu was not shocked, and continued to break the news: "The dignitaries and nobles in the entire Xicheng have all benefited, and the families of the officials have been allocated money and food, and they have all turned a blind eye. ”

"Although I don't care about these things, I offended my colleagues by coming forward to participate in the impeachment, but they didn't think that they were letting the people die, and this was digging the foundation of the Ming Dynasty!"

"What is this place? This is the capital, at the feet of the Son of Heaven, at the feet of the dignified Son of Heaven, they all dare to do this, so what about the other place? You don't have to think about it to know that all the money and food for disaster relief have been divided among them. I have heard people say in the past that the money and food for disaster relief will not be saved in the hands of the people, and it is estimated that if they change places, the people may not get a penny. ”

Looking at Wen Zhenmeng, who lost his temper, Emperor Chongzhen's face was dark, and the hands holding the fan were bruised.

At this time, Emperor Chongzhen was angry, he always felt that the situation was stable, he took his time, and cleaned up step by step, but now Emperor Chongzhen has long lost that patience, and he can't wait to arrest all these people and send them directly to Jinyiwei's prison.

In the past, I still felt that the punishment of Jinyiwei and Dongchang was too heavy, but now it seems to be light.

Emperor Chongzhen turned his head to look at Fang Zhenghua, his face was very dissatisfied, there was no news from the ministers, and there was no news from Dongchang and Jinyiwei? Why don't you tell yourself? In a dignified manner, he actually became deaf and blind, and the incident happened in the capital, and he didn't even know it?

"I'm here today just to find a few colleagues who used to be in the Metropolitan Investigation Academy, and I hope they can play a good game!" Saying this, Wen Zhenmeng sighed resentfully again.

Wang Zaijin touched his chin, his face was also gloomy and terrifying, he looked at Wen Zhenmeng and asked, "What is the result?" ”

"The result? Okay, let me in the door, and as soon as I mentioned this matter, I pushed it to two, six, five, and then served tea to the guests. Wen Zhenmeng's expression was a little hideous: "Later, the news spread, and I was not even allowed to enter the door." ”

Emperor Chongzhen squinted, he didn't believe that no one was going to play the game, if things really became like this, then there really wouldn't be a good official in the court.

Beckoning to Wang Chengen, Emperor Chongzhen asked in a deep voice, "Has the celebrant received such a twist?" If someone gets on the loop, where will they get stuck? ”

"Hui Gongzi, the celebrant has not received such a twist recently!" Wang Chengen also knew that Emperor Chongzhen was really angry, and hurriedly said: "The song is folded to the General Administration, and then it will be handed to the cabinet, and the cabinet vote will be sent to the celebrant after it is drafted." ”

"If the fold is not handed over, it should be in the Department of Communications or the Master of Ceremonies!"

Emperor Chongzhen nodded, the cabinet, the problem should come from the cabinet, the general administration department is just a transfer agency, and he doesn't have such courage. As for the cabinet, the current cabinet members are all promoted by Wei Zhongxian, and all of them are Wei family elders.

Not only are they vegetarian, but they are insatiable, and if they really made it, then it would not be surprising. What's more, now that the Metropolitan Investigation Institute is also in their hands, it must be very simple to deceive the superiors and subordinates. If he hadn't come out today, if he hadn't met Wen Zhenmeng, he wouldn't have known about it.

Wen Zhenmeng looked at Wang Chengen and was shocked, who is this? How did he know that the celebrant had not received the recital?

After looking at Wang Chengen, and then at the guards around him, a touch of shock flashed in Wen Zhenmeng's mind, and then he froze in place. Beads of sweat oozed from his forehead, and his body trembled a little, I don't know if he was excited or frightened.

Emperor Chongzhen was not in the mood to look at Wen Zhenmeng, but the other party Zhenghua said: "This matter, should you give me an explanation?" ”

Fang Zhenghua also complained in his heart, he really didn't know, recently he has been busy gathering manpower and rectifying the palace, basically getting it almost done, and was about to ask Emperor Chongzhen for Wei Zhongxian, who would have thought that such a thing would happen?

When something happened, Fang Zhenghua didn't dare to talk back, especially at this time, but in his heart, he scolded the eighteen generations of ancestors below.

A group of waste, such a big thing didn't even tell themselves, but now is not the time to investigate, and hurriedly said: "Please punish Gongzi!" ”

waved his hand, Emperor Chongzhen also knew that Fangzheng was full of problems, and it was understandable that he didn't know, but this also gave Emperor Chongzhen a wake-up call. Turning his head, he nodded to Wang Chengen and said, "Send someone, send someone now, go and find Tian Ergeng for me!" ”

"Yes, Childe!" Wang Chengen nodded hurriedly, turned around and glanced at the little eunuch.

Wang Zaijin sighed on the side, this time Tian Ergeng is probably going to eat and hang, the dignified brocade guards, the supervising officials, have not found out such a big thing, it is obviously unreasonable.

Wen Zhenmeng couldn't guess who Emperor Chongzhen was at this time, and he didn't have to mix it up, so he hurriedly stood up: "Wen Zhenmeng doesn't know the identity of the son, and he actually spoke out in front of the son, it is really an unforgivable crime, and I ask the son to forgive the sin!" ”

Emperor Chongzhen stood up, stretched out his hand and patted Wen Zhenmeng's shoulder: "You are very good, go, follow me out of the city, I want to see what has become of it!" ”

Fang Zhenghua and Wang Chengen glanced at each other, and hurriedly said: "Childe, if it is really as Meng Gongzi said, there will definitely be chaos outside the city now, and it is better for Childe not to take risks in person." Now that you know about this matter, then leave the matter to the slave and maid, and the son can rest assured, the slave and the maid will definitely give the son an explanation. ”

When he said this, Fang Zhenghua had already gritted his teeth, and his eyes were very firm.

Emperor Chongzhen looked at Fang Zhenghua and didn't speak for a long time, until Fang Zhenghua saw sweat on his forehead and said, "Give me an explanation?" What do I have to say? It's an explanation to the people! ”

Listening to Emperor Chongzhen's words, Wen Zhenmeng's body was shocked, and he raised his head to look at Emperor Chongzhen, his eyes flashing.

Seeing that Wang Chengen was about to speak, Emperor Chongzhen waved his hand and said: "Needless to say, lead the way ahead and go out of the city!" I want to see what they do to my people! ”
