Chapter 80. Fang Congzhe's crisis

The time soon came to November of the first year of Taichang. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

At that time, Hou Guoxing rode a horse in a daze in the cold wind in the north and rushed to the palace Taihe Palace.

He kept complaining in his heart, this ghost weather, it was still hot in October, why was it so cold in a blink of an eye?

And the courtiers of the Ming Dynasty, are they all funny, according to the time of the later generations, it is only about three o'clock in the morning, right?

Could it be that they are all clear in their minds so early? Hell it would be nice to be able to discuss what national affairs have come out!

Hou Guoxing has been in the Ming Dynasty for three months, and today will be the first time he will stand at the center of the Ming Dynasty's power.

Of course, he Hou Guoxing is just an identity similar to that of a security guard in later generations, but after all, he is standing under the same roof with the bigwigs of various departments of the Ming Dynasty, and it is good to be extravagant.

As soon as he arrived at the Fengtian Palace, he saw Wang An holding a booklet related to the arrangement of the court meeting, where he was dancing and directing the eunuchs and soldiers, and placing relevant honor guards.

Seeing Hou Guoxing, who had just entered the door, Wang An hurriedly came over and complained:

"Oh, my Hou Qianhu, General Hou, you are finally here, our family has been here to help you decorate for a long time."

"Father-in-law, you are really early, this early in the morning, why did you come to help in person?" Looking at Wang An's anxious demeanor, Hou Guoxing knew that he must be late, so he was respectful.

"Early? Isn't it early? Mrs. Ke knows that you went to the court on the first day today, and you have entrusted our family many times, so let our family help you more. After speaking, he glanced at Hou Guoxing complainingly and said again:

Your current situation, you can't be in any situation in the court. Otherwise, the ministers will have to bite your mother and son again. That's why our family rushed over early in the morning to instruct us so as not to leak anything.

After speaking, he didn't care about Hou Guoxing, and complained to himself:

"You're here, you're not here until now. Hey, our family is this blind life! ”

At this time, it was late autumn, and the temperature had turned cold, seeing Wang An holding his hands, trembling and standing on the side and nagging, Hou Guoxing felt a trace of warmth in his heart, bowed deeply and said:

"Father-in-law, you and Guoxing are not related, but you have helped Guoxing several times, this sentiment is remembered by Guoxing in this life."

"Hehe, with your words, it is not in vain that our family gets up early in the morning to pick up the missing things for you."

Looking at Hou Guoxing, who bowed deeply, Wang An had a smile on his complaining face, smiled and patted Hou Guoxing's shoulder, recalling the past:

"Our family was poor when we were young, so we had no choice but to enter the palace, and the eunuchs in this palace are also a place to talk about seniority and backstage......"

Wang An entered the palace when he was young, and there was no one to take care of him in this palace, and he walked on thin ice for small work, and later let him throw it to the prince's mansion, which was not treated by Lord Wanli, and gave the current emperor a childhood companion.

At the beginning, let alone Zhu Youxiao, even Emperor Taichang did not let the palace people be optimistic.

In the extremely snobbish place of the palace, the eunuchs of the prince's mansion are not valued at all when they go out, and the treatment is not a little lower than that of the eunuchs in the palace.

In addition to the prince's mansion, Li Changshi, who is now Concubine Kang, was extremely unkind to Zhu Youxiao, and he was nitpicking all day long.

At the beginning, Wang An also complained about the unfairness of fate, and felt that this life was over. But seeing that Zhu Youxiao was young, as the emperor's grandson, but he was blinded by the palace maids and eunuchs all day long, his temperament became more and more withdrawn, and he was also embarrassed in his heart.

People will have feelings when they get along for a long time, and Kebaba, as a wet nurse, actually gave up leaving the palace for the sake of the young Zhu Youxiao, and protected Zhu Youxiao with difficulty. Wang An also joined in, and the two protected the young children together.

can do a good job, but it can't stand someone picking on the thorns, Ke Baba and Wang An, telling Zhu Youxiao to be careful every day, so as not to let Concubine Kang find any faults. But you still make mistakes everywhere.

As the two cronies of Zhu Youxiao's side, Kebaba and Wang An are trembling day by day, and they suffer from the flesh and skin every once in a while.

In the end, Wang An rubbed his moist eyes, smiled and said:

"Our family thought at the time, if someone in this palace took care of one or two, our life should be much better. Xu is God's remembrance of the emperor, and the emperor is now registered, and we can be regarded as having this early day. ”

"Father-in-law, you are kind-hearted, and now you are in charge of the Great Seal of Ceremonies, which can be regarded as a bittersweet come." Hou Guoxing echoed on the side.

"Our family is now developed, but my parents have long since passed away, and I have a distant nephew who is currently with me, but our family always feels like something is missing. Maybe it's because the blood relationship is too far away, so every time our family sees that our friends have outstanding sons and nephews, they are envious. ”

After speaking, he took Hou Guoxing's hand and said:

"Our family has survived with Mrs. Hakka for more than ten years, and now I see that you are so good, and I am happy for Mrs. Hakka in my heart, a little thing, it is not a big deal to help you. It's not too early, and we're ready to start the pilgrimage! ”

……………………………………………………

"There is a book to play, and there is no book to retreat!"

Wang An tore away the duck's throat and shouted at the civil and military officials who were in the second row below!

Hou Guoxing looked at the serious Wang An on the side, and suddenly felt that this eunuch of the Ming Dynasty may not be as terrible as recorded in the history books.

Wei Zhongxian doesn't know where he is now, but he can see that this Wang An, as the eunuch in charge of the seal, has a high position, is loyal to Zhu Youxiao, and he also takes good care of himself.

For the well-known Donglin ministers, he also suggested to Zhu Youxiao many times to reuse. Although Hou Guoxing is now anxious about Donglin, these people have a really good reputation.

"Your Majesty, the ministers have their own music!"

As soon as Wang An's voice fell, Yang Lian walked out slowly, bowed to Zhu Youxiao and said:

"The minister asked the emperor to thoroughly investigate the death of the first emperor, when the first emperor was alive, the minister's complexion was ruddy and powerful, and the pace was steady, and it was by no means like an illness."

As soon as Yang Lian's voice fell, the hundreds of officials below began to talk to each other.

"The minister has seen the emperor's case in the Tai Hospital, in the early stage, it was just a matter of eating porridge and irritability, and the liver fire was rising, so you can eat some cool medicine to remove fire."

Speaking of this, Yang Lian knelt on the ground and said loudly:

The eunuch Cui Wensheng is in charge of the Tai Hospital, but the rhubarb medicine is the medicine that is a great tonic, how can there be such a reason in the world. According to Weichen, this Cui Wensheng is really a major crime of rebellion. ”

As soon as these words came out, the face of the first assistant changed from Zhe, and the ministers below also exclaimed.

"Your Majesty, the ministers also play!"

As soon as Yang Lian turned around, another person from the team of officials spoke:

"After the first emperor was seriously ill, he should have sought a good doctor to ask for medicine, so Li Kezhuo was not a medical officer, why could the red pill in his hand reach the first emperor directly, causing the first emperor to return to heaven.

After the official finished speaking, he looked at Fang Congzhe, who closed his eyes and pretended to be dead, and then turned around and continued:

"Then the eunuch Cui Wensheng is in charge of the Tai Hospital, why can't he investigate the medicinal properties of the red pill in detail? All kinds of things here, on the surface, someone secretly plotted to kill the first emperor, and asked the emperor to put Cui Wensheng and Li Kezhuo in prison, and find out the mastermind behind the scenes, and destroy the nine clans! ”

Hearing the three words of the Nine Clans, Fang Congzhe, who was standing at the head of the civil officials, shook his right hand holding the beard violently, and even ripped off a handful of beards without any pain.

He took a deep breath and simply closed his eyes, feeling the bursts of killing intent coming from the white-haired old man behind him. It's racing in my head.

Are you really going to kill the old man? What this official said, every sentence pointed to the old man and Concubine Zheng Guifei, and he even dared to say the words of exterminating the nine clans?

Is it really necessary to destroy, the principle that after so many years of fighting, the family will not be harmed, and the defeat will not kill the army? But if you want to get rid of the old man just by that, I'm afraid it's not that easy!

Just when Fang Congzhe closed his eyes and thought, Ying Zhen, the secretary of the Criminal Department, hurriedly walked out, his eyes wide open, trembling slightly, and he was about to put Cui Congzhe in thought. Zhu Youxiao, who was imprisoned by Li and the others, spoke:

"Your Majesty, according to what the ministers have seen, although this case was caused by Cui Wensheng and Li Kezhuo to donate medicine successively, causing the first emperor to return to heaven, but there are many suspicious points, and the minister has been in charge of the criminal department for many years......"

Guan Yingzhen, as the secretary of the Criminal Department, still has a lot of say in such a case, and he raised three doubts

First, Cui Wensheng and Huang Keruo really had the heart of disobedience, and poisoned the first emperor with medicine. Why did no one transfer the family property afterwards? They are still exercising their respective responsibilities.

Second, if Cui and Li really want to poison the first emperor, they only need to be drugged once, why do they have to do so much and take drugs twice in succession.

After raising two questions, Guan Yingzhen turned to stare at Liu Yihuojing and the others and said with a smile:

Li Kezhuo offered medicine that day, although it was allowed by Lord Fang, but all the ministers in the cabinet and the secretaries of various ministries were also present, this red pill went directly to the hands of the first emperor, I think all the adults can't get rid of the relationship, right? ”

As soon as the official Yingzhen's words fell, the civil and military officials on the left and right sides quarreled for a while!

"The official did not dare to agree with this. Since Li and the others dared to do such a rebellious thing as poisoning the emperor, how could their thinking be inferred according to common sense? According to the lower officials, it was these two people who poisoned the first emperor in a frenzy. A speaker spoke.

"Your Excellency, we are loyal to the Ming Dynasty and the first emperor, a loyalty can show the sun and the moon, you will go straight to the sin of the first emperor and push it down on us, we will not dare to accept it!"

A noble man cried.

"Yes, that Lord Fang is the head of the cabinet, and Li Kezhuo is still a fellow villager with him, I think this red pill can reach the first emperor, and Lord Fang has an inseparable relationship."

A gray-haired official chimed in.

"Nonsense, if the cabinet lords don't agree, how can Lord Fang alone offer the pill to the emperor, I think you are obviously deliberately framed. Still a loyal minister? I think you're a traitor who deliberately framed the faithful. ”

Another official who spoke Huguang's spoken language retorted.

"You kid, dare to say that the old man is a traitor, and the old man vows not to rest with you."

The white-haired Yanguan looked at the old Long Zhong, and listened to that little boy who dared to scold himself for being a traitor. He ran headlong into the officer.

Look at this skill, how can he be old-fashioned, and the power of the iron head is ten complete, only to see the young civil official fly out two meters away, and scream:

"This official fought with you............"

Tomorrow on the shelves, I hope you have more rookies, spend a few cents, get a first order, thank you. There are also those who hope that they don't read books in Zongheng, and they can register a number in Zongheng and give a collection, which can be regarded as adding some popularity to the book.
