Chapter 508: The Forbidden City

"Brother Yongzhen, don't thank you for your kindness, just see how Lao Cui repays in the future!"

After Cui Chengxiu finished speaking, he knelt on his knees and kowtowed to Zhang Ke three times. It's no wonder that Cui Chengxiu is like this, he sensed that the capital was treacherous and not a place to stay for a long time, so he asked Zhang Ke for help, and Zhang Ke readily agreed to let him serve as the Liaodong Economic Strategy.

It didn't take long for Zhang Ke to really do it, so that he could get out of the sea of suffering and escape.

But what made Cui Chengxiu a little upset was that Zhang Ke stepped in, one out and one in, which made Zhang Ke even more righteous and a friend!

"Brother Cui, in the future, Liaodong will depend on you a lot."

"I didn't say it, I'm Xiao Gui Cao Sui, when something happens, I will consult Wang Huazhen more, ask Uncle Zhang Shi, and let them take the helm for me!"

"Hahaha, Brother Cui is polite." Zhang Ke said with a smile: "I recommend you to go to Liaodong, firstly, because we have a good relationship, and secondly, you are a cadre, and your vision is wider than theirs." When you do things in the future, you must safeguard the interests of Liaodong, and only do what is beneficial to Liaodong! ”

Speaking of this, it couldn't be clearer, the subtext is that the court has an opinion, and let the court get out of the way.

"Brother Yongzhen, don't worry, Lao Cui will definitely do what you ask." Cui Chengxiu patted his chest and reassured, and after a few more words, Zhang Ke was ready to send off the guest, he is now a sick person, and it is not good to meet the guest for too long.

Cui Chengxiu hesitated again and again, and said: "Brother Yongzhen, this time the Beijing officials are making trouble, do you know where the money went?" ”

Zhang Ke frowned, hundreds of officials in the storage warehouse and people from the household department almost fought, and it was already known to everyone. Zhang Ke remained silent and said with a smile: "I heard that Jingying and Jiubian were divided, and many officials wanted to impeach Zhu Chunchen." ”

"Hehe, Brother Yongzhen, you only know one thing but don't know the other, how much ability Zhu Chunchen has to intercept the imperial budget. Able to fill your pocket! ”

Zhang Ke suddenly became interested, and hurriedly asked, "Brother Cui means that there is someone behind him?" ”

"Well, I said it bluntly, it was Gonggong Wei who did it." Cui Chengxiu said: "Wei Liangqing, the nephew of Father-in-law Wei, became the Duke of Ningguo, and Father-in-law Wei intended to let him take over the Beijing camp, and he wanted to give the position of the secretary of the military department to Tianji, the secretary of the Taichang Temple. ”

The name Tian Ji is not unfamiliar to Zhang Ke, and everyone outside calls him the Five Tigers under Wei Zhongxian, ranking third, and the first place is Cui Chengxiu in front of him, but now he has become his Zhang Ke's person......

"Tian Ji is in charge of the military department. Wei Liangqing controlled the Beijing camp, so that the military power fell into his nine-thousand-year-old hands, and Gonggong Wei was very calculating! Zhang Ke smiled contemptuously.

Cui Chengxiu continued: "Wei Liangqing is a talent, not to mention Brother Yongzhen, even if he lifts shoes for me, Lao Tzu doesn't need him, a god and a horse!" He scolded again: "Father-in-law Wei also knew that he had no ability, so he wanted to use money to smash it." Buying people's hearts. Therefore, he took out two million taels of silver, plus 200,000 horses of silk, nominally to allocate Liaodong to reward the three armies, but in fact secretly withheld it. I want to control the Beijing camp in my hands. ”

Hearing this, Zhang Ke couldn't help but have some admiration for Wei Zhongxian, the old eunuch had a good eye and knew that he wanted to seize military power. I just want to take the capital camp with money. It's not necessarily a bit wishful thinking......

Cui Chengxiu looked at Zhang Ke with a thoughtful face, and immediately stopped talking nonsense, how to deal with it. Just let Zhang Ke make a move. He obediently withdrew from the palace and hurried to Liaodong, the Longtan tiger's den in the capital, he didn't want to stay for a minute.

……

The Ming Dynasty abolished the Imperial History Terrace, put the Zuodu Imperial History on the same level as the Six Shangshu, and at the same time set up the Six Science Corridors, but the result was to create a group of people who no one could restrain and no one dared to provoke...... Speaker!

Just when Xiao Nian was receiving the money, the hundred officials made a fuss, and three of the six subjects were beaten in the conflict, and one of them was still unconscious.

The rest of the Six Branches hurriedly found a carriage and sent their companions home. Along the way, the alleys became deeper and deeper, and the ground was full of potholes, making it difficult to walk.

When I got to the innermost part of the alley, a small courtyard appeared in front of me, dilapidated, and after entering, I saw a woman wearing patched clothes coming out of it, and when she saw the man in the car, she immediately rushed over in shock, and cried bitterly.

Song Quan hurriedly comforted the woman and asked her companion to be sent into the house.

When we entered the small room, we suddenly found that there were only a few couplet paintings sent by friends, the bedding on the kang was dilapidated, there was no rice in the rice tank, there was no firewood in the firewood room, and we couldn't even eat, let alone ask a doctor.

The woman lay on her husband and kept asking, "What's the matter, what's the matter?" Isn't it a garner? What about the grain, what about the silver? The court doesn't give anything, and it still beats people like this, can't this official do it, we won't do it! ”

The crying cuckoo cries blood, and I can't bear to hear it.

Several people present wept one after another, Song Quan took out a silver ingot from his arms, waved his tears and said: "Don't look at it, big guy, take out everything, ask Brother Cai for a doctor, buy firewood and rice!" ”

The subordinates hurriedly went to work, and a few people looked at the four walls of the house and the cold and cramped hut in the middle of the matter, and sorrow came from it.

This is the official of words, this is the clear stream!

The backbone of the imperial court, the conscience of the Ming Dynasty, since Taizu set up the Six Branch Corridors, how much has he worked hard in the matter, with a lot of blood, bravely fighting power and rape!

Whether it is a eunuch like Liu Jin or a traitor like Yan Song, which one is not an iron-clad official, who launched a moth to the fire offensive wave after wave, and knocked him down with a bullet stamp.

For more than 200 years, the officials were willing to stay poor and serve the country with all their hearts, but they lived in such a simple house and had no food. The imperial court even dared to withhold the money, let me ask the princes in power, where is the conscience?

"Section chief, impeachment, impeachment! Let's go to the fold, not for Brother Cai's grievances, but to ask them, how did they govern the Ming Dynasty? In the past, it was said that the Jiannu in Liaodong was in turmoil, but now that the Jiannu has been pacified, and the external troubles have been removed, but the internal worries are still getting worse day by day. ”

"That's right, the civil officials embroider the birds, and the military generals embroider the beasts, but we are the only ones who are embroidered on the chest with the sacred beast Pig that distinguishes between right and wrong. The country has reached this point, we have to speak! ”

Song Quan looked at everyone's expressions of hatred and hatred, he suddenly stood up and said, "Colleagues, it's time for us to help the society. However, we must also pay attention to proportion, this time we only impeach the household department, only the military department, only the Beijing camp, ask them, where did all the money of the imperial court go! ”

……

On the twenty-ninth day of the lunar month, the snow that came more than a month late was sprinkled, and the Forbidden City was covered in silver, which was extremely enchanting.

Near noon, suddenly there were countless figures on the street, as if it was a date, the six departments of the giving matter, the thirteen imperial history, the Hanlin Academy, the Guozijian, the Zhan Mansion, the Tongzheng Division, the Dali Temple, the director of the six Langzhong, hundreds of officials of all sizes held the folds, strutted forward, and came to the left Shunmen.

Wei Zhongxian's confidant eunuch Li Chaoqin was guarding Zuoshun Gate, and when he saw the hundred officials surging in front of him, he was so frightened that he was at a loss.

"Quick, captain of the Jinyi Guard, stop these unholy rebellious ministers and thieves!"

At this moment, someone shouted loudly: "Eunuch, open your dog's eyes and see, are there unarmed rebels?" (To be continued......)
