Chapter 266 Crying Spirits Break Righteousness

Pulling Qin Lin aside, Xu Wenchang didn't ask if it was Wang Bengu who he killed, and said directly: "Zhang Jiangling wants to accept the old thief as a lackey, as the saying goes, beating a dog depends on the face of the owner, and the chief is killing the culprit for the sake of heaven, but how can he be born to be the first assistant of the dynasty?" ”

Zhang Juzheng, the emperor of Jiangling who has lived in the phase for a long time, is definitely not easy to be confused, he is above the court, and he acts differently from ordinary people, he wants to subdue Wang Bengu, as a result, Qin Lin went to Wang Bengu and hanged himself, in Zhang Juzheng's eyes, this matter does not need evidence at all, and the anger of the first auxiliary emperor will go straight to Qin Lin.

Qin Lin frowned, although he was different from Zhang Juzheng's path, he had no intention of confronting him, "What is the best plan for Sir?" ”

"The old man has three strategies, I don't know which one the chief wants to hear?" Xu Wenchang's eyes flashed with a sly light, the clever military advisor in the Governor's Shogunate back then was back.

"Let's start with the best policy." Qin Lin smiled secretly in his stomach, and he also had three strategies, which was really a bit of a last-ditch strategy.

Xu Wenchang said with a smile on his face: "The chief and Xu Daxiǎo sister Jiāo have a lot of love, this best policy is to marry the prince of the country, although Zhang Jiangling is powerful in the world, inside and outside the city of Nanjing, but Wei Guogong is a word, the chief only needs to leave the Jinyi Wei and transfer to the Nanjing camp, and have to be a positive and three-product command to make it as straight as a bag to take things, accumulate merit and transfer, and do it in the year when the chief has the talent of the chief to do the governor's affairs, and it should not be difficult to add the prince and the prince in the year of the establishment." ”

The governor is a military officer of the second grade, and the prince Taibao is the third division of the prince from the first grade, and he is already a position at the very high level of the pyramid in the officialdom of the Ming Dynasty, but Xu Wenchang does not take it seriously at all - if Qin Lin is the nv son-in-law of the Xu family, with the help of the old Taishan of Wei Guogong, starting from the commander of the third grade, it is not impossible to achieve such a high position in 20 years.

But Qin Lin thought about it and vetoed this "best policy" in his heart.

As a criminal investigator, he only received quite simple military training in his later life, and he didn't have the ability of Qi Jiguang and Yu Dayou, if he was transferred to the imperial army, he would give up the profession of criminal investigation, and his promotion mainly depended on the nepotism of Wei Guogong, which was not very interesting.

Xu Wenchang knew Qin Lin's intentions when he observed his words, smiled and said: "The old man's middle strategy is to discuss with Huang Gonggong and Huo Sifang, secretly take refuge in Feng Bao and Feng Dugong, and even transfer to the East Factory. ”

Oh? Qin Lin raised his eyebrows: "Isn't Feng Bao Zhang Juzheng's fellow party?" ”

"A cabinet chief assistant and a celebrant eunuch in charge of the seal, even if they are like brothers, in the end they will look like each other," Xu Wen stroked his white goatee, "At the beginning, they joined hands to deal with the former head assistant Gao Gong, so they formed an alliance, and now that the positions of the two have been secured, the dispute between the inner court and the outer court will inevitably surge. Like the matter of appeasing the Wufeng maritime merchants, it is enough for you to go with the chief, why send another Huo Chonglou? It is clear that the inner court is competing with the outer court. ”

Xu Wenchang made a lot of sense, Zhang Juzheng and Feng Bao were allies from beginning to end, but they were also competing with each other for the dominance of the alliance.

In the early days of Emperor Wanli's ascension to the throne, there is no doubt that Zhang Juzheng firmly occupied a dominant position, and he used a rumor that "Gao Gong has the heart of abolishing the establishment", and scared the Empress Dowager Li and Feng Bao enough, and after expelling Gao Gong and serving as the first assistant, it was even more prosperous, but there were major military events, and the Empress Dowager Li often called "at the disposal of Mr. Zhang".

However, as time passed, Empress Dowager Li, Feng Bao and others gradually discovered that the stable system of the Ming Dynasty made it impossible for the civil officials of the foreign dynasties to pose a substantial threat to them, and their reliance on Zhang Juzheng would gradually wane, and the idea of competing for the dominance of the alliance began to prevail.

If Qin Lin was under Feng Bao's command at this time, the other party would definitely entrust him with a heavy responsibility, and the factory and the guard were integrated, and Qin Lin's criminal investigation methods would still be useful.

"It's not good, although this official is different from Zhang Shoufudao, but this official's Tao and his Tao are not incompatible, if you have no last resort, you don't have to go against him."

Based on the experience of later generations, Qin Lin determined that Zhang Juzheng's new policy could not achieve the desired effect, and it was inevitable that people would die in the end; However, the policies of clearing the acres of land, suppressing mergers, recovering the accumulated debts of the gentry, and reducing the burden on the common people, prompted me to pay tribute, transferred Qi Jiguang to organize and train a new army equipped with a large number of firearms, and opened the sea in Longqingyue Port, all of which were wise decisions that have been proven by history, and have effectively contributed to the revival of the Ming Dynasty during the Wanli period. ,

Moreover, Feng Bao didn't seem to have a good end in his memory......

"Is there a better way?" Qin Lin scratched his head, "Please tell me about the next step." ”

Xu Wenchang nodded, as if he had already expected Qin Lin's choice, "It's very simple." Let's ask Zhang Juzheng if he wants to keep Wang Bengu, what is the matter? It's just to use the influence of Wang Lao's clear stream to shout for his new policy and reduce the attacks from Qingliu, if we can also do this, why does he have to keep Wang Bengu? But ......"

Qin Lin's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly asked, "But what?" ”

Xu Wenchang looked at him with a smile, and said quite narrowly: "Zhang Jiangling's talent is the first in the Ming Dynasty, and this temper has to be ranked first.

Alas~~ It's a pity that the chief called the prime minister's daughter sad, and she will not do it for us, so although the old man's method is good, it can only be regarded as a strategy. ”

Even if Qin Lin was extremely thick-skinned, he couldn't help but blush at this time, and sneered: "That's not necessarily......

Xu Wen smiled and slammed it to the ground: "The chief is really romantic!" Often whipped famous horses because of drunkenness, but I am afraid that I will mistake the beauties, and the chief believes it? ”――

A mansion not far from the Nanjing Metropolitan Procuratorate is the house of the deputy capital Shi Geng, in the study, this Zhengsanpin master is like an ant on a hot pot, constantly turning in circles, and sighing from time to time.

The suicide note left behind actually said that in order to sell his name and sell his official position, in order to be promoted, he unjustly killed Wang Zhi and slandered Hu Zongxian, harming the southeast for ten years, sacrificing 100,000 soldiers and civilians!

"Oh my God, Brother Wang, you're so confused!" Geng Xiangxiang is simply crying without tears, you old man will die if he wants to die, why break out such a big scandal? Isn't it a bore for everyone?

Although he didn't participate in the bad incident back then, Qingliu was both prosperous and loss-free.

Wang Bengu is the bearer and flagpole of their group of gossip officials, whether it is the court, Shilin or the people who mention his name, they all give a thumbs up and say "What a clean official", through the name of this clean official, Hu Luàn on the excerpt to participate in others, only to say that you are loyal, what mistakes have been made, it is only a temporary negligence, when it is really like a talisman, there is no disadvantage.

But now Wang Bengu actually admitted his guilt before he died, and turned out the old background of the Qing rumors and officials selling their fame, didn't this cut off the way for the big guys to gain fame?

Wang Bengu, who is the flagpole of Qingliu, has fallen, and even the people in the Imperial Procuratorate are panicking, Wang Bengu and the Geng family brothers are already a little difficult to get along with the new policy, will Zhang Jiangling take this opportunity to reach out and give them a hard blow?

Geng Xiang was so depressed that he secretly scolded Wang Bengu for harming people if he died, and he was careless and made such a fool.

Poor Wang Ben is dead and famous, even his former allies scolded him for being bloody, which is really a stinking for 10,000 years.

Supervising the imperial history Chen Keli, Hu Jingjiang and other mén officials looked at each other, seeing the teacher's appearance, they were also worried, and the big guys bragged to each other on weekdays, you are a lonely high-level agent, I am the minister of the society, Wang Bengu is their core, I didn't expect that now he has become the culprit of ten years of widowhood, doesn't it make people embarrassed?

"Master, master," the butler ran over from outside.

"What's the matter?" Geng Xiang frowned, "Didn't you say that you won't see any outsiders here?" ”

The housekeeper whispered two words in his ear, and Geng Xiang's eyes immediately widened: "Hurry, hurry, please!" ”

It was none other than the key figure in Wang Bengu's case, Qin Lin, deputy of Jinyiwei.

Qin Lin went straight into the Geng family's mansion with pride, this time Geng was not as good as before, and greeted him with a smile on his face: "Chief Qin is here, the bad grass house is really full of brilliance - hurry up, serve tea for Chief Qin, and make the newly arrived box of Lushan cloud tea in my study!" ”

Geng Xiangxiang is also a clear stream of hypocrisy and hypocrisy, but he does not have a blood debt like Wang Bengu in his hands, and he is only afraid that Qin Lin will come up with something to rectify him.

Now Mr. Geng is now arrogant, but he can no longer withstand the toss.

Qin Lin hesitated and looked at Chen Keli, Hu Jingjiang and the others.

Geng Xiang immediately waved his hand and told Mén Sheng to step back for the time being.

Qin Lin laughed, took out a few letters from his arms, and handed them to Geng Xiang. ,

When Geng Lao'er saw it, his whole body immediately shook and his face was as pale as paper, and his hands kept shaking: several letters were full of his correspondence with Liu Yiru and Wang Bengu, and there were some ghosts in them that were not enough to be outsiders......

Qin Lin had a secret conversation with him for half an hour before leaving, and Mr. Geng personally sent it to the mouth of the big mén, and the deputy capital imperial history lowered his waist very much, and the smile on his face was extremely flattering.

The next day, a strange thing happened in the city of Nanjing: Wang Bengu exposed his guilt after his death, so the former mén life and deceased officials were in panic all day long, and the Wang family with the coffin was not even a ghost.

However, the second person of the Qing gossip official, the deputy capital Yu Shi Geng, went to the Wang family with great fanfare, and his actions were even more unusual, first crying in front of the spirit, and helping two hundred taels of funeral silver, but finally chōu took out a sword to cut off the corner of the robe and threw it in front of the spirit.

"Wang Bengu, you and I belong to the friendship of colleagues and friends, but you sell your name and deceive the world to steal your name, which is really intolerable!" Geng Xiangyi was stern, his snow-white thick eyebrows were upside down, his eyes were wide open, it was simply the soul possession of Bao Longtu, and he pointed to the spirit card and said angrily like a bell: "From now on, we will cut off the robe and break the righteousness!" ”
