Hong Fu made every effort to open the black curtain of Liaodong, Zhu Jinhai was crazy and did not stop his footsteps, after playing Zhang Feng's unjust case, he seized the three properties of the Zhu family and searched a large number of account books.

Hong Shiki thought that it was a big harvest, and if he could touch the melons along the vine, he would be able to find out more people. He led a group of account offices, checked without sleep for two days, and when the old gentleman looked at the results with red eyes, he was so frightened that he almost fell down!

He did catch a big fish, but this big fish was so big that it jumped over the dragon gate and directly became a real dragon emperor!

According to the account books, the Zhu family will provide the palace with five buckets of Dongzhu and 200 mink skins every year, and 20 cars of the rest of the mountain treasures.

In previous years, the Zhu family could supply normally, but since the old slave rebellion, the Ming official stopped trade. However, the use of the palace has not been adjusted, on the contrary, many eunuchs still add codes!

The Zhu family didn't dare to offend the people in the palace, so they could only find a way to smuggle, but the old slave was not short of gold and silver, what was lacking was iron tools, and what was lacking was medicine, so there was this smuggling.

If Zhang Ke was here, he would not be unfamiliar with this situation at all, Shen Qingyan had said this kind of thing at the beginning, it was just the medicinal materials that her family was responsible for.

Zhang Ye looked at Hong Fuyi's bill, and his eyes suddenly widened.

"This, what is this, hasn't the Zhu family become loyal ministers who work for their masters?"

Hong Fuyi's eyes suddenly widened, and he said angrily: "Father-in-law Zhang, you can't say that, the Zhu family's smuggling of iron weapons is to ruin the Ming Dynasty, and it is more than innocent!" ”

Zhang Ye smiled bitterly: "Lord Hong, our family doesn't argue with you about the affairs of the family and the country, and our family will ask your master what the master will think?" ”

"This ......"

Hong Shiki is not stupid, how can he not understand. The Zhu family is doing things for the palace, that is, loyalty, but he uses the most undesirable means. Severely punish the Zhu family, that is what the palace people forced them to do, if they don't punish the Zhu family, how can they explain to the subjects of the world!

The dignified emperor was forced into a corner, left and right.

Hong Fuyi couldn't help but sigh: "Grandpa Zhang, Yongzhen analyzed this possibility at the beginning, but I thought that they didn't dare to be so mad and dared to splash dirty water on the palace and involve the emperor." It seems that I made a mistake, Gonggong Zhang, what the lower officials are most worried about is that once the palace knows about this matter, if it is suppressed, I am afraid that it will not be good for us! ”

In fact, it is not only unfavorable, if you follow the virtue of doing things in the palace, the sky and the earth are big, and the emperor has the greatest face! This kind of thing that is detrimental to the Holy Ming must be put to an end! What should I do, the people involved in the case are killed, the officials involved are transferred, and the truth is completely submerged.

It's just that the emperor's face is saved, and the others are in danger, and the two brothers Zhang Ke, even including Hong Fuyi and Zhang Ye, will be in trouble!

Hong Shiki figured out the problem, it was like falling into an ice cave for 39 days, so cold from the inside out!

"Father-in-law Zhang, the lower officials think that the top priority is to explain the situation in Liaodong to the palace, and they can't be led by the nose by a few businessmen. Once you can't continue to investigate, those people will inevitably fight back even more, you and I also include Yongzhen, and He Zongbing will be in trouble! ”

Zhang Ye didn't know how strict things were, but he knew very well that if he followed what Hong Fuyi said, not only would he not be able to change the palace level, but he would also cause trouble.

People talk to you about interests, and if you go to talk about morality with others, it's strange that they will listen to you!

Zhang Ye anxiously walked around the ground a few times, and walked to the front of the table, he suddenly saw a letter pressed under the Diamond Sutra, and suddenly Zhang Ye seemed to see a life-saving straw.

"Hahaha, Lord Hong, you don't have to worry, Yongzhen has already found a way to stay, this kid is really like a god!"

Hong Shiyi's eyes widened, and he hurriedly asked, "Grandpa Zhang, what did Yongzhen give you?" ”

Zhang Ye took the envelope and wanted to give it to Hong Fu, but he took it back.

"Lord Hong, it's not that we won't show you, it's just that this thing is too important. Our family originally wanted to study and understand, and then send it to the palace, but now it seems that time is running out, and we must send it immediately! ”

Looking at Zhang Ye's baby-like expression, Hong Fuyi couldn't help but shout in his heart: What kind of demon did I teach!

"Grandpa Zhang, can you do it?"

"Hahaha, don't worry, our family will arrange for someone to give it to the ancestor in person. Godfather is good at everything, he just serves the master with one mind, and he doesn't want to take care of anything else, but when this thing is in the hands of his old man, he can't ignore it! ”

Zhang Ye hurriedly called his subordinates, immediately sealed the envelope, and rushed to the capital with six hundred miles.

Waiting for the letter to be sent, Zhang Ye said with a smile: "Lord Hong, Zhang Ke is a student you taught, what did this kid learn from you?" ”

Hong Shiyi was also dumbfounded by the question, muttered for a long time, and barely held back a sentence: "This is God's gift!" ”

……

At the end of the year, every household in Beijing is immersed in the joy of the New Year, and the fiasco in Liaodong is still too far away from the people, and they are still thinking about living their own small lives. Sent away the king of the stove, cleaned the house, steamed steamed buns, made frozen dumplings, and was very busy.

From time to time, there are a few firecrackers in the street, accompanied by the innocent smiles of children.

The people are lively, but in the Forbidden City, the greatest city center today, there is a cloud of gloom and bitter rain. The eunuchs and palace maids only dared to laugh in private, for fear of touching the mold. In the past month alone, five or six little eunuchs have been killed.

Emperor Wanli, who had ascended the throne for forty-seven years, was ill, and when the news of the defeat of Sarhu came, the old emperor could barely hold on in front of his ministers, but when he returned to the palace, he vomited a mouthful of blood.

Since the beginning of winter, Wanli has often been unconscious, and everyone has a bad premonition in their hearts, but they don't dare to say it......

In the carved and painted dormitory, a pale old eunuch held a warm hand towel board and turned around and walked towards the dragon bed.

On the dragon bed lay an old man with big ears, his beard was gray, and his sideburns were crawling with age spots, especially the white and fat face had lost its luster and the loose skin was drooping.

The old eunuch had just arrived in front of the dragon bed, stretched out his hand to change the hand towel board, and suddenly the person on the dragon bed opened his eyes silently.

"Chen Li, is it the thirtieth year of the Chinese New Year's Eve?"

When the old eunuch heard the voice, he was stunned for a moment, and then the old tears flowed uncontrollably.

"It's not promising, I'm so old, what are you crying about!"

The old eunuch hurriedly wiped his tears and smiled: "The old slave didn't cry, the old slave was happy!" Long live the master, today is the twenty-seventh day of the lunar month, and I slept for two days, which is not long! ”

"Hehehe." Emperor Wanli smiled lightly.

"The emperor is a lonely man, what's the point of looking forward to the New Year, but it's just one step closer to the coffin!"

Chen Ju hurriedly knelt down and said, "Long live the master, you have to live a long life, you can't say unlucky things!" ”

"Hey, throughout the ages, which emperor has lived a long life!" Wanli smiled bitterly: "Don't say these annoying words, let them all come in, some official affairs are explained clearly, and it will be good for the New Year!" ”

Chen Ju nodded hurriedly, the little eunuch had already gone to deliver the decree. After a while, there was a sound of footsteps, and several people walked in quickly.

Walking in the front is the old man is the auxiliary Fang Congzhe, followed by Zhou Jiamo, the secretary of the ministry, and Li Ruhua, the left waiter of the household department. The other team was led by Wang Hailin, the celebrant and supervisor, who was followed by two eunuchs in the court.

These people trembled and went to the dormitory, and fell to their knees on the dragon bed.

"The old minister (slave maid) knocks on my emperor, long live, long live, long live!"

After being silent for a long time, Wanli's voice came slowly, "Get up!" ”

Everyone got up, and the little eunuch hurriedly moved a chair for Fang Congzhe and asked Master Fu to sit down.

"I've been groggy these days, and I've worked hard for all the major events of the court!"

Auxiliary Fang Congzhe listened to the emperor's weak words, and bitterness broke out in his heart.

"Your Majesty, the ministers are just doing their duty, the burden of this Kyushu Wanfang is still on the shoulders of His Majesty, and the ministers are looking forward to His Majesty's recovery as soon as possible!"

Wanli shook his head slightly: "Hahaha, this is comforting me!" Tell me all about it, what's the matter! ”

Fang Congzhe peeked at Chen Ju, who was serving on the side, and said in his heart, Can the emperor's body hold up? Seeing Chen Ju's undetectable blinking, Fang Congzhe suddenly gained confidence.

"Your Majesty, since Xiong Tingbi arrived in Liaodong, the whole army has been quite effective, but the consumption of military salaries is three million, and the gap in the household department is 1.2 million taels, please allow to increase Liao's salary!"

After Fang Congzhe finished speaking, Wanli was silent for a long time: "Plus, plus, let the people suffer, you can't make the soldiers suffer!" ”

Fang Congzhe continued: "Your Majesty, since the winter, there have been no less than 30,000 hungry people in Beijing, and there is an increase every day, and disaster relief is urgently needed; Shandong, Henan, Shanxi and other places have famines, and they also need relief; Newly recruited troops in Zhenjiang and Kuandian in eastern Liaodong scattered and fled; Zhejiang's Xian Wokou rebelled against more than 20 merchant ships and killed more than 100 people......"

These people have played, but in the final analysis, they are all the same, that is, to tell sù Wanli, your old man's world is full of holes, and the people are not happy.

played for more than an hour, and in the end, Wanli didn't bother to speak, and the green tendons on his temples couldn't help but collapse.

"Don't say it, isn't there no good news?"

The big guys looked at each other, and they didn't squeak at all!

Wanli waved his hand crookedly, and said weakly: "Let's go down!" ”

Everyone was about to kneel, and at this time, Chen Ju, who had been watching from the bedside, suddenly smiled and said: "Long live the master, it's not that there is no good news, the slave maid just heard that he won a battle in Yizhou and cut off more than a hundred heads!" ”

"A hundred or so, not from the common people, right?"

Chen Ju hurriedly knelt down: "Long live the master of Qiqi, absolutely not, the one who made this great achievement is a young scholar, it seems that his name is Zhang Ke, he led the righteous people to attack the Tartars and cut off more than ninety heads!" ”

Wanli, who had been lying on the dragon bed, heard this, and suddenly struggled to sit up, and finally had a smile on his face.

"Hahaha, I'm not nobody, I must be rewarded!"
