Chapter 104: Verbal Sword
Xiaohuangmen Zuo Feng quietly walked into the West Garden and reported in a low voice: "Doctor Zhu Jun asks to see." Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info" (for ease of reading, changed to Jun in the future)
Liu Hong said with a smile: "Look, none of the people who have been exposed to Zhang Wang's cheapness have been left behind, and they have all come to plead." Beidi is too far away from Emperor Fu Song, otherwise he won't be able to run away. ”
The profits of the candles produced by Zhang Forget are shared by the six parties.
Emperor Liu Hong, the Ten Standing Attendants, Taiwei, the Emperor Fu Song of the North, Zhu Jun, and Zhang Forget himself.
Liu Tao, the servant of the imperial history, thought of Zhang Wang's precautionary measures, and couldn't help but have a new understanding of Zhang Wang's scheming.
A lot of money was not thrown out in vain, and now Zhang Forget is in trouble, except for the ten permanent servants who have lost too little profit and are a little difficult to discern, everyone else is excusing Zhang Wang.
Emperor Liu Hong seems to be punishing every word, but in fact, he didn't take this matter seriously at all, otherwise he would be charged with a gangster, and it would be a matter of one sentence, and there would be no need to invite so many people to debate here.
Liu Hong could borrow the slope to get off the donkey, and his expression was a little relaxed. In his heart, he didn't want to embarrass Zhang Forget, Zhang Forget was his fortune boy, and now he was punished for a small crime of gangsterry, which was undoubtedly killing chickens and taking eggs.
If he really has the ability to earn hundreds of millions of copper dollars in a year, as long as he doesn't rebel, he can rely on him for anything.
It's just a fat pig, and before slaughtering and eating meat, you can't treat him too badly.
Thinking of this, Liu Hong instructed: "Call the counselor doctor to come in and see what he has to say." ”
Zuo Feng listened to the order, secretly happy in his heart, and hurriedly went down after agreeing. Doctor Zhu Jun was recuperating at home and didn't know about it. Zuo Feng specially sent someone to inform him, asking him to excuse Zhang Wang's sake for the sake of millions of dollars every year.
Zhu Jun walked into the West Garden slowly, his expression slightly complicated.
Zhang Forget inexplicably courted him and sent him millions of candles a year with profits, which shocked him very much.
Among the three princes and nine secretaries, only one lieutenant can share the profits of candles, and among the other hundred officials of the imperial court, except for himself, Zhang Forget will not give anyone, this love is not deep. Now that Zhang Forget is in trouble, if he leaves it alone, his reputation for being unkind will be regarded as falling.
Zhang Wang's motives are debatable, but that is a matter for the future, and the most important thing is to rescue Zhang Wang first and show the world that he knows how to repay his kindness.
Emperor Liu Hong glanced at Zhu Jun with interest and said, "Doctor, what do you have to see me?" ”
Zhu Jun said straightly: "The minister thinks that the heart of Cheng Zhongjun can be learned from the world and the world, and there is no possibility of banditry, and there is no need for banditry. However, for the sake of my country, this matter cannot be handled carefully. ”
Liu Hong was very pleased to see that he had not only interceded for Zhang Wang, but also saved face for the imperial court, and nodded: "In your opinion, how should you deal with it carefully?" ”
Zhu Jun said: "Luoyang and Chang'an see that there are bandits entrenched, this is a problem for henchmen, and it should be eradicated with the power of thunder, so as not to shake the foundation of my Han Dynasty." The minister suggested that Zhang Forget should go out with the army to exterminate the bandits. First, you can prove your innocence, and second, you can knock on the mountain and shock the tiger to test whether Zhang Jiao has a disobedient heart. ”
Liu Hong frowned and said: "Zhang Forget is just a sixteen-year-old boy, let him go out to exterminate the bandits, does he have that ability?" ”
Liu Tao, the servant of the imperial history, stood up and said: "Your Majesty, Zhang Forget has a collection of thousands of books in his chest, and he can talk on paper even if he is not good, so it is not impossible to send him a try."
The doctor is familiar with Tao Strategy, and once led only 5,000 soldiers to break the rebels and pacify Jiaozhou, His Majesty can make him a captain of the unified army, and take Zhang Wang to go on the expedition together. ”
Liu Tao's words were reasonable, and Liu Hong was greatly moved. But when I thought that the army would need to spend countless money and food on the expedition, I suddenly had a great headache.
Zhong Chang is a roundworm in Liu Hong's stomach, as soon as he saw his worried appearance, he knew why he hesitated, and suggested: "The imperial court sent troops to correct Zhang Wang's name, how could he not be grateful?" The slave maid thought that since Zhang Forget was guilty of meritorious service, he should be responsible for the money and food needed to go on the expedition to repay His Majesty's valued kindness. ”
Liu Hong admired Zhang Rang's proposal, but he still wanted to be embarrassed after all, and hesitated: "Is this appropriate?" ”
Liu Tao, the servant of the imperial history, saw that the opportunity could not be missed, and stepped forward and said: "Zhang Wangbo has family wealth and contributes to the country, why not?" The minister was willing to go and declare His Majesty's grace to Zhang Forget in person. ”
Liu Hong got the steps and said happily: "This is very good! Doctor, from now on, I will order you to be the captain of Yingyang, and Zhang Forget will be the Marquis of Qu for you, and mobilize 3,000 soldiers and horses nearby to level the bandits from Luoyang to Chang'an. ”
Zhu Jun bowed his head and said, "The minister takes the order." ”
Luoyang County Ya, Luoyang Ling Zhou Yi was furious by Zhang Wang's rude attitude: "Zhang Wang, the facts are there, do you still have to quibble?" ”
Zhang Forget shook his head and said, "Where are the facts? What are the facts? I only heard the accusations, but I didn't see the facts. ”
Zhou Yi said angrily: "The books of your hundred family slaves are all fake, isn't this a fact?" ”
Zhang Wanghe smiled: "You said it's fake, it's fake?" You take it out and point it out to me one by one, I want to know where the fake is? ”
Zhang forgot that he was pretending to be a scholar, and the books were not easy to get, so he asked for Bi Yang, the righteous son of Bi Lan, who served Bi Lan, in the middle of the year, and only then did he get the reissued books from the Huayin County Order.
However, Zhang Mane and others are all ordinary people, so the books are naturally not so important and not so difficult to do, Zhang Forget sent someone to send 500,000 yuan to the clerks of Luoyang Mansion, and replaced all the books with slave deeds. And those books were all burned to ashes. After committing the crime, he still has to leave evidence, Zhang Forget is not so stupid.
Zhou Yi saw that Zhang Forget refused to admit it, and was greatly annoyed. Fortunately, it took him a month to investigate the origin of Zhang Mane and others, so he was not afraid of Zhang Forget's tricks in court.
"Zhang Forget, if you want people to know, unless you have done nothing. You met bandits on the way to Luoyang, and then took the robbers under your command, who do you think you can hide from this? ”
Zhang Wang's heart was cold, and he shook his head and said, "I don't know what you're talking about." ”
Zhou Yi shouted: "I know that you don't shed tears when you don't see the coffin, come, please ask the general of the Taiwei Mansion." ”
The four Taiwei Mansion generals walked out of the back hall and glanced at Zhang Wang, all with shame on their faces. They were the Yang family guards who were arranged by Yang Xiu's side when they arrived in Luoyang from Huayin.
Zhang forgot to see that the Taiwei Mansion really turned against him, and sighed secretly in his heart.
Zhou Yi stared at Zhang Wang's eyes and asked, "Do you have to ask me carefully before you are willing to admit what you did that day?" The Taiwei Mansion has no grudge against you, so it won't deliberately frame you, right? ”
Zhang Forget nodded and said, "Yes, my house slaves are all from bandits. ”
Zhou Yi sneered: "You finally admit it." ”
Zhang Forget also smiled: "What about admitting it?" I used the righteousness of the court to influence them, so that they woke up, willingly abandoned the past, and gave their lives and loyalty for my Han from now on, which is a great merit. I think I have done wrong in educating the bandits and making them good citizens? ”
