Chapter 392: Plan before you act

"Brother Shouren, don't worry, I will take good care of the boss. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info"

After a pause, Xie Shen continued: "As for Liu Jin, I have already thought of a way. ”

Wang Shouren smiled happily: "I believe you." ”

......

......

It's night, and the moon is shining.

In the study room of Gu Dayong's private house, the candles are flickering.

Xie Shen handed a letter to Gu Dayong and said in a deep voice: "This is a handwritten letter from Xiya Gong, take a look at it." ”

Gu Da flashed a touch of pride in his eyes, took the letter and said lightly: "Xiao Ge is bothered. ”

He opened the letter and looked at it word by word, and sighed for a long time: "Shoufu values our family so much, and our family is afraid that we will have to be entrusted by Shoufu." ”

Xie Shen knew that Gu Dayong was going to talk about the conditions, and he didn't say anything, so he replied softly: "Father-in-law Gu is a celebrity beside His Majesty, if Father-in-law Gu can't do this, no one will be able to do it." ”

Gu Dayong laughed and said, "Xiaoge Lao is really a wonderful ear. To tell the truth, our family and that Liu Jin are indeed not on good terms, but they are not to the point where they are incompatible and cannot work together. ”

This is really intriguing.

Gu Dayong is clearly testing the bottom line of civil officials.

As far as the cabinet is concerned, Li Dongyang, the first assistant who is willing to write a handwritten letter to Gu Dayong, must be the thread drawn by Xie Shen.

In this way, Xie Shen's attitude represents the attitude of the cabinet and even the civilian officials to a certain extent.

Gu Dayong naturally wanted to test Xie Shen.

Although they are old acquaintances, they are a matter of favor and humiliation, and they can't be rash.

But Liu Jin occupies the position, and Father-in-law Gu is always one step behind. Doesn't Grandpa Gu feel like a fish in his throat? ”

Whether it is a civil official or a eunuch, the resources at the top are limited. If you want to get on top, there is no other way than to step on people.

For eunuchs, this norm was even more brutal.

Although Gu Dayong, as the commander of the West Factory, is already the top three person among the eunuchs, who doesn't want to be the boss?

Gu Da boasted of his outstanding talents, so he was naturally unwilling to be small for Liu Jin. It's just that the Son of Heaven favors Liu Jin more.

Gu Dayong knew that the time had not come, so he repeatedly tolerated Liu Jin and hid it.

At least for now, Gu Da's own strength is not enough to bring down Liu Jin.

But if Wenchen had helped him, the situation would have been completely different.

"Well, our family doesn't care. Anyway, they are all serving the emperor, what does it matter who gets more favor? ”

Xie Shen was really helpless. What does this Gu Dayong want to do? Forcing him to vouch?

But Gu Dayong must know that even if Xie Shen guarantees him now, it doesn't make any sense. Because it is taboo for Wenchen and eunuchs to intersect, let alone Li Dongyang, even Xie Shen will not leave a handle on this kind of matter.

Similarly, Gu Dayong does not want to push this relationship to the surface.

"Father-in-law Gu's words are wrong. Since Gonggong Gu is loyal to His Majesty, he should understand that Liu Jin is by His Majesty's side, and it will do no harm to Jiangshan Sheji. ”

"Oh?"

Gu Dayong was obviously interested, and said lightly: "How do you say this?" ”

Xie Shen Chen Ran said: "The father-in-law of Tingcane Valley outside the gate at noon today can know. ”

"I've heard a little."

Gu Da said with a knock on his finger.

"So, Father-in-law Gu should know that Liu Jin ordered the criminal official to be stripped of his clothes, right?"

Xie Shen's tone rose suddenly: "This is definitely not what Your Majesty meant, and there is no precedent in this dynasty." Then it must have been Liu Jin's personal instructions to retaliate against the officials who impeached him. ”

After a pause, Xie Shen continued: "If it's a matter of the side, it's just that Liu Jin's move is trampling on the dignity of a scholar. After this incident, the relationship between civil officials and eunuchs will be even colder. If no one stands up and shows sincerity, division will be inevitable. ”

"What does Xiao Ge Lao mean that our family will be able to mend this rift?"

Xie Shen nodded and said, "Exactly, except for Father-in-law Gu, I can't think of a second person." ”

After being silent for a long time, Gu Da said playfully: "It's just that Liu Jin has always been cautious, and I'm afraid our family can't do anything." ”

Old fox!

Xie Shen scolded secretly, but said with a smile on his face: "Does Father-in-law Gu know what Liu Jin's official title is now?" ”

"Naturally, it's the admiral eunuch of Dongchang."

"But now Jinyiwei is subservient to the East Factory, and Liu Jin, the commander of the East Factory, is even the commander of the Jinyi Guard."

"Haha, it turns out that Xiaoge always means this."

Gu Dayong was so clever that he immediately heard the meaning of Xie Shen's words.

He said with a straight expression: "Since Xiao Ge Lao has said this part, it is naturally difficult for our family to refuse." However, we have one condition. ”

Xie Shen was overjoyed in his heart, and hurriedly said, "Father-in-law Gu, please speak." ”

"After the deed is completed, I will be the eunuch of the celebrant and the seal of the seal."

Gu Da said word by word.

Xie Shen was really shocked when he heard this.

This Gu Dayong's appetite is really not small.

He originally thought that the condition proposed by Gu Dayong would be to take over Liu Jin's position, who would have thought that what he wanted was the number one position of the eunuch in charge of the seal.

"Xie will definitely do his best to ensure that Gu's father-in-law succeeds."

Now is by no means the time to talk about conditions, Xie Shen agreed without hesitation.

"In this way, our family will not disappoint you. But ......"

Gu Da changed his words and said: "I still need the little pavilion elder and the two pavilion elders to come up with a way, this Liu Jin is cunning by nature, and it is not easy to make him bite the hook." ”

"Of course." Xie Shen said with a smile: "Let's make a fuss about Liu Jin's monopoly on power and control of Jinyiwei." ”

The factory and the guard came into being. Previously, Jinyiwei and the East Factory checked and balanced each other, and after losing the balance, the West Factory was introduced.

Now that the West Factory has just been rebuilt, the East Factory and Jinyiwei have been held into Liu Jin's hands, and they must have lost their balance.

Emperor Zhengde is not stupid, the reason why he still tolerates Liu Jin now is because Liu Jin is easy to use.

But if something happens in Dongchang and Jinyiwei at this time, and then through impeachment, Liu Jin's status in the emperor's heart will inevitably be affected.

As long as Liu Jinsheng is no longer in charge, it will be much easier to do it to him again.

Therefore, to get rid of Liu Jin, you must use a chain plan. And this first step is to make Emperor Zhengde suspect him.

"This method is good, if there is anything that needs our family's cooperation, Xiao Ge Lao said that it doesn't matter."

"I heard that Liu Jin has more than 30 beautiful concubines in Beijing, and many of these concubines are the wives and daughters of criminal officials."

Xie Shen said suddenly: "You can probe the tone of this matter first." ”

"Dongchang only has the power of inspectors, not the power to arrest. These people were all caught by Jinyiwei when he raided his house, but why did they appear in Liu Jin's mansion? ”

"Wonderful, wonderful!"

Gu Da praised with his palm: "It is worthy of being a little pavilion elder, and the method I came up with is exquisite." In fact, His Majesty didn't want Liu Jin to be a brocade guard, and Liu Jin would definitely lose a piece of meat if there was such a play. ”
