Chapter 275: Dismissal of the East Factory?
After Xie Shen read the content of Ma Shangshu's letter, his first feeling was that the writing was too good. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
In fact, writing is the icing on the cake, and it does not play a decisive role.
However, the courtier's writing is good, so that the Son of Heaven can see it comfortably, and he is unconsciously brought into the rhythm of the performer.
Tsk, it seems that you rely on the pen to eat, and you really can't do it without two hands.
Ma Shangshu's ability to acupuncture the disadvantages of the times is really first-class, Xie Shen praised it.
But after the praise, I have to write it myself.
There is also a lot of skill in this kind of thing, and the timing is crucial.
If the accompaniment is too late, it will have no effect, and it will be drowned in the vast sparseness. But if the accompaniment is too early, it will make the Son of Heaven wonder if these people have discussed it in advance.
Now the timing is not bad, at least the imperial court's palace newspaper has been copied and distributed to all yamen, and Ma Shangshu's recital is now public.
Xie Shen thought for a moment and then picked up the pen and wrote the note, the core is undoubtedly what Ma Wensheng proposed, but the young man added some of his own thoughts from a different angle.
It didn't take long for Xie Shen to write the recital. I read through it again from the beginning to make sure that there was nothing wrong with the words, and nodded with satisfaction.
Xie Shen summoned a clerk from the Hanlin Academy's office and asked him to deliver the song to the Huiji Gate.
Working hours are always a bit difficult, especially for "idle officials" like Xie Shen.
At the end of the day, Xie Shen only felt sore.
Alas, writers are hard, and finding an opportunity to exercise more is it.
Back at the Xu Mansion, the scholar Chen Hu'er came over and handed a letter to Xie Shen.
"Childe, this letter is for you."
"Who's going to deliver the letter?"
"I don't know about this, I just know that it was a teenage doll who sent it. He left it at the doorman and left. ”
Xie Shen rolled his eyes, he didn't even know who the messenger was, was he planning to let him guess the riddle?
Xie Shen reluctantly took the letter, took out the letter and unfolded it.
There were only a few numbers on the letterhead.
Come to the Deng Mansion on Jinxian Street in Yongfang.
Although it was not signed, Xie Shen immediately understood that the letter was written by Deng Yuan, the eunuch of the palace.
Deng Yuan once told Xie Shen that he had a house in Yongfang when he was a child, and he would live there when he was not on duty. If the two of them meet in the future, they will choose there.
This is for Xie Shen's reputation, after all, it is really not good to make friends with the eunuchs in the palace.
Xie Shen couldn't help but sigh that these eunuchs were still quite righteous.
Before he had time to rest for a while to drink saliva, he ordered: "Prepare a sedan chair and go to Xiaoyongfang." ”
......
......
Hour Yongfang, Deng Mansion.
Deng Yuan was so anxious that he paced back and forth in the house, some time ago, Ding Zhe of the Japanese Criminal Department and Wang Jue of the Outer Lang were imprisoned, because the matter involved Yang Peng, the eunuch of Dongchang, and the law department actually sentenced Ding Zhe and Wang Jue to move to the side in order to curry favor with Yang Peng.
As soon as this incident broke out, Xu Qi, a warden of the Criminal Department, was indignant in his heart, so he spoke bluntly.
Deng Yuantuo's personal relationship copied a copy of the content of the song, and he shook his head after reading it.
The intensity of the words in this letter is unprecedented. As soon as Xu Jue's letter was sparse, the Son of Heaven was thunderous and angry.
If someone else is negligent, Deng Yuan will sigh at most, and he won't take it too seriously. But this Xu Jue is different, this is his own brother-in-law.
Deng Yuan is a younger sister, if Xu Qi really angered the Son of Heaven and was beheaded, then the sister would have to be widowed.
And it's not that simple.
Yang Peng and Li Guang have been friends for a long time, and Li Guang has always held a grudge against Deng Yuan, so he will definitely make a big fuss this time and hint to Yang Peng that Xu Qi was instructed by Deng Yuan.
In this way, Yang Peng will hate Deng Yuan to the core, and Deng Yuan's life in the palace will be even more sad.
Thinking of this, Deng Yuan hurriedly wrote a letter and sent it to Xie Shen, hoping that this clever and scheming Hanlin Academy cultivator could come up with an idea for him.
Just as he was hesitating, a disciple came to report that Master Xie had arrived, and Deng Yuan was overjoyed and hurriedly waved his hand to ask the doorman to invite Xie Shen to the side hall. At this moment, Deng Yuan didn't care about his appearance, so he straightened his clothes a little and went to the side hall.
"Xie Xiu save me!"
As soon as he entered the side hall, Deng Yuan bowed to Xie Shen.
Xie Shen was really helpless. Can this eunuch Deng speak with some new ideas, how can he call someone to save him as soon as they meet.
"Father-in-law Deng must not be anxious, and speak slowly."
Since Xie Shen had already regarded Deng Yuan as an ally in the palace, he naturally had to put himself in Deng Yuan's shoes.
If allies are in trouble, it would be too unrighteous to help each other.
Deng Yuan told Xie Shen what happened, and couldn't help sighing: "This brother-in-law of our family is really worrying." Fortunately, this time I was only in custody in the Criminal Department, and I didn't go down to the Imperial Prison, otherwise ......"
Speaking of this, Deng Yuan couldn't help wiping away tears.
Xie Shen took a deep breath.
This eunuch Deng's brother-in-law turned out to be Xu Jue?
Xie Shen still has some impressions of this criminal department official.
In December of the ninth year of Hongzhi in history, Xu Jue defended Ding Zhe in Langzhong of the Criminal Department and Wang Jue of Lang Lang, and wrote a letter.
Hongzhi Tianzi was furious, and cut Xu Jue's official position on the grounds of disobedience, and returned to his hometown for the people.
Because this incident involved many bigwigs, it was a sensation at the time, and it also left a lot of historical records.
But now it's only July, why did those two unlucky ones go to prison, could it be that the butterfly effect brought by Xie Shen's crossing has been fully produced?
Deng Yuan waved his hand and said, "Xie Xiu, take a look at the content of this recital, alas, ......"
Xie Shen nodded, and then walked to the bookcase and unfolded the copy to read.
"The minister has been in the criminal department for three years, and every time he sees a thief arrested, he is arrested by the Dongchang Suppression Division, or the captain is framed for personal gain, or avenges others, or is ordered by the chief evil stolen goods to be convicted by others. The criminal officer saw the situation and did not dare to correct it, so that he killed many people in vain. I hope that Your Majesty will go to the East Factory to eliminate the disaster, and the world can be peaceful. The minister is slightly driven, and he knows that he will inevitably die, and it is better to die in the court than to die in the tiger's mouth. May Your Majesty behead the head of the minister, be able to do the words of the minister, and have no hatred even if he dies. ”
Hey, although it was scorching July, Xie Shen still couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart.
Is this Xu Jue dying, he actually wrote such a letter of "looking for death".
In Xie Shen's opinion, this letter is comparable to the letter from Hai Rui scolding Jiajing.
If Xie Shen is not mistaken, the eunuch who holds the seal of the celebrant at this time should be Wang Yue. And the chief eunuch of the ceremonial supervisor and the eunuch of the East Factory who is also the commander of the East Factory is Yang Peng.
Although Xiao Jing is very old, he is only the second among the four eunuchs who are the master of ceremonies and the eunuch Bingbi, and he was pressed by Yang Peng.
So the current situation is that Xu Qi has offended the second person in the palace, the eunuch Yang Peng, the admiral of Dongchang, who is in the limelight......
