Chapter 409: Liu Mian enters the cabinet
readx;
Listening to the eunuch's words, Liu Jian was really ashamed and worried to the extreme, with tears in his eyes, and said, "The old minister is dead!" Then he slammed his head on the ground. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Zhu Youzhu was indeed seriously ill, suffered such a big blow, plus he had not slept well for a few days, and he fell ill all of a sudden, the imperial doctors had already made a mess, and they used a few pairs of medicines, but they didn't see any effect, and the anxious Empress Zhang didn't know what to do for a while. Even Princess Na Taikang became at a loss, just holding Queen Zhang's hand, and she didn't know what to do in Qianning Palace.
Zhu Houzhao heard the news, and also hurried from the East Palace, after all, he had not experienced anything, seeing his father fainting, his face turned pale in an instant, and he was also at a loss, and after a long time, he held back a sentence: "If Master Liu is here, it will be good." ”
This sentence not only expressed Zhu Houzhao's heart, but also made sense even to Queen Zhang and Duoduo.
Liu Chengfeng, this guy, is indeed a pillar of the people, no matter what happens, he can be calm and calm, and there is a way to solve it. In other words, Liu Chengfeng and Zhu Youzhang have one thing in common, they are both the kind of people who are not chaotic and have a strong sense of responsibility.
I don't usually think it, but once I encounter something, I can realize the importance of this kind of person.
And now, Zhu Houzhao is sick, and the cabinet naturally can't count on it, what is the use of the eunuchs in the palace, everyone invariably thinks of Liu Chengfeng.
When Empress Zhang heard Zhu Houzhao's words, she remembered what Fang Cai Duoduo said, and she sighed for a while, and couldn't help but sigh in her heart, but it's a pity that Liu Chengfeng is a guy, how good it would be if he didn't have a wife. But even if he doesn't have a wife, I'm afraid that he may not be willing to be this donkey, the concubine of the Ming Dynasty, that's not so easy to be. Only those who have no ambition in their hearts, but are just drunk and dreaming of death, will be so enthusiastic.
The question in front of this family is what to do? In the end, Empress Zhang gritted her teeth and said, "Go, please invite Shouning Hou and Jianchangbo into the palace." ”
Since others can't count on it, they can only count on their own pair of brothers.
However, Empress Zhang obviously forgot that Shou Ninghou had gone to Lianzhou because of the road construction, and the road construction in Lianzhou and Nantong Prefecture had already begun, and someone had to go to the center to dispatch, but Zhang Yanling, the uncle of Jianchang, was in Beijing, Zhang Yanling quickly entered the palace, and was dumbfounded when he saw this situation, and quietly pulled Queen Zhang aside, and said in a low voice: "Sister, since the imperial doctors are useless, it is better to prepare for the future." ”
When Empress Zhang heard this, she was immediately furious and said, "You are still your own brother in this palace?" What you said is really rebellious, the emperor is sorry for you, but you are sick, but you are talking such nonsense......"
She scolded loudly, so frightened that Zhang Yanling couldn't help shrinking her neck, and said after a long time: "I heard that some noble families, if it is useless to ask a doctor, they will invite some witches to summon souls, it is better to ......"
Empress Zhang was also in a hurry to go to the doctor at this time, and said, "Does it really work?" ”
OR ......... Maybe it works. Zhang Yanling was also not sure.
After all, Empress Zhang is a woman's family, and at this time she is also messing up, although it may work, she always has to try, so she said: "You go and invite a few, but don't leak the news, lest others make irresponsible remarks." ”
Zhang Yanling listened, nodded hurriedly, and went quickly.
……………………………………………………………………………………………… An urgent report arrived at Nanchang Mansion quickly, and when a dense secret letter arrived at Ning Wang's Mansion, Zhu Jinjun read the letter and immediately clapped his hands excitedly.
Zhu Chenhao, who was sitting on the side, was confused and said, "Why is my father so happy? ”
Zhu Jinjun said with a smile: "Our matter in the Beijing division is done, the latest news, early yesterday morning, Liu Jian submitted his resignation, although His Majesty did not approve it, but he has been let go home to recuperate, and the affairs of the cabinet have been handed over to Li Dongyang to deal with, as for the emperor, he is now sick, and now the entire Beijing division has been in a mess." ”
Zhu Chenhao showed joy, slapped his thigh fiercely, and said, "God help me, father, our time has come." ”
Zhu Jinjun had a cold face, shook his head and said, "It's still early, do you really think that now is the best time?" Hmph, the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, as soon as we move in Jiangxi, the chaos in this Beijing division will be contained in an instant. ”
Zhu Chenhao flashed a look of disappointment for a while, but he also felt that Zhu Jinjun's words may not be unreasonable, now there is a mess in the Beijing Division, and there are divisions, and the hundred officials of the court are also attacking each other, and some people even feel a little dissatisfied with the emperor's behavior, but once something happens to King Ning's side, I am afraid that the entire Beijing Division will immediately hug together, although the officials of the Ming Dynasty have no surname, but this kind of major matter of right and wrong can still be distinguished.
Zhu Jinjun said: "Although we still have to continue to forbear, but when Liu Jian goes, there will be a vacancy in the cabinet, otherwise Li Dongyang and Xie Qian alone will not be enough to take on the heavy responsibility." From the perspective of his father, His Majesty will definitely let someone replace Liu Jian. And that's what my father did. ”
Zhu Chenhao couldn't help asking: "Who does my father think is most likely to enter the cabinet?" ”
Zhu Jinjun said with a smile: "Ma Wensheng's qualifications are not enough to take on a big responsibility, Liu Daxia is not stable enough, and he can't afford to provoke this Liangzi, and his father counts it, and there is only one Liu Ji." ”
"Liu Ji ......" Zhu Chenhao's eyes widened, and he almost choked to death.
What kind of person is Liu Ji, that is also the most famous figure in the Ming Dynasty, in terms of qualifications, there is no one older than him in the entire court and the opposition, this person entered the cabinet during the Chenghua period, this official to the university scholar, the first assistant of the cabinet, in the Chenghua period of the corpse vegetarian meal, good at private business, repeatedly impeached by the officials. But he relied on welcoming the emperor, colluding with eunuchs, and squeezing out and attacking those who impeached him, and his position was as stable as Mount Tai. People can't help him, so at that time, people said that the three members of the cabinet, Wan An, Liu Ji, and Liu Yi, were "the elders of the three pavilions of paper paste", that is, during the Chenghua period, this Liu scholar did nothing, squatted in the pit and did not, which was no different from paper paste.
But if anyone dares to say that Liu Ji is a faint official, it is wrong, this person is not faint at all, but very capable, and when Zhu Youzhu ascended the throne, Liu Ji suddenly became extremely shrewd and capable, so that even Zhu Youji couldn't help but admire him, anything in his hands, he could do it properly, and he would never make a mistake.
If it is only about ability, this Liu Ji is only afraid that he will be above Liu Jian and others, which is why after Zhu Youzhu succeeded to the throne, he eliminated many ministers in the Chenghua years, but he kept this Liu Ji and let him work until Chenghua for five years, and Liu Jian and others at that time gradually became completely familiar with government affairs, so they kicked Liu Ji away.
This scholar Liu is actually a tragic figure, a courtier in the sky, although he is thicker than the city wall, he will inevitably end up in the end. It is said that when he was in office, many people in Beijing set off firecrackers, which was even more lively than the festival. This is mainly because Liu Daxue is really a little too shameless, people can't look at it, the ministers of the Ming Dynasty originally wanted a little face, but he didn't want it, anyway, as long as he can continue to be an official, he dares to do anything, the impeachment of the imperial court at that time became a trend, and the speech officials also like to meddle in things, Liu Ji This kind of person has naturally become the main target of the speech officials, but this benevolent brother has a good psychological endurance, and he didn't hear what the speech officials said, so his friends in the rivers and lakes gave him a nickname "Liu Mian". Why? Cotton, don't be afraid to play!
Now that Liu Jian has fallen, Li Dongyang and Xie Qian are both partial talents, if you talk about the overall situation, there is still a lack of heat, and the other officials are either not qualified enough or have limited levels, so Zhu Jinjun believes that Liu Mian, who is idle at home, is only afraid that he will have a chance to recover at this time.
He Zhu Chenhao said with a smile: "Liu Ji has always been not on good terms with Liu Jian and others, and later Liu Jian replaced him, this person is even more resentful, if he is allowed to enter the cabinet at this time, I am afraid that there will be a lively look in this cabinet, with Liu Mian in Beijing, it can reach his father's 100,000 elite soldiers." ”
Zhu Chenhao suddenly understood, and couldn't help but say: "I'm afraid that the palace may not think of Liu Jilai." ”
Zhu Chenhao smiled faintly and said: "Yes, Your Majesty is really angry this time, I am afraid that I am already dissatisfied with the hundred officials, and Liu Ji is needed at this time, not only to share his worries, but also to use Liu Ji to balance Liu Jianyu in the court, and within three days, Liu Ji will definitely enter the cabinet." ”
