Chapter 0026: Xu Xianchun
"Well, very well, you go and deal with the relocation affairs with peace of mind, and you don't have to meddle in the rest of the matter. By the way, find Wang Chengen to deal with the list of eunuchs who are retained in Dongchang, and it must be fair, and the standard should be assessed according to the person's ability. In the future, the affairs that the eunuch is responsible for will be taken over by you and Wang Chengen, he is outside the master, and you are in the master! In the future, the approval of the folds will also be handled by the two of you together. After Emperor Chongzhen finished speaking, he gave Cao Huachun a smile.
This smile made Cao Huachun like a cloud, following this young emperor, he always had this illusion that he was going to rise to the clouds at any time, and he would be sent to hell at any time! This feeling makes people have to tremble and act carefully for the emperor! However, Cao Huachun was thinking about something else at the moment, he and Wang Chengen were now the only eunuch candidates that the emperor could reuse, and he and Wang Chengen were both assigned errands, so who would recover Xu Xianchun's brocade guard, could it be that the emperor wanted to go out in person? Impossible.
It is not for nothing that the emperor is directly in charge of the spy agency, Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang is directly in charge, and his guards are all those generals who follow him to serve as soldiers! Later, it was gradually replaced by the big eunuchs. As an emperor, it is actually very difficult to always be diligent all the time! It is not as easy to manage a huge brocade guard as it is to manage a few big eunuchs, that's for sure.
But such a thing, it was not his turn Cao Huachun to ask, looking at the emperor's distant back, Cao Huachun only felt that today's morning was always rare in his life, and Khan had never done it, and now he deeply realized what it means to accompany the king like a tiger!
It's not that Zhu Youzhen no longer trusts Wang Chengen, it's just that Wang Chengen is too loyal on the one hand, and he has to think about everything for the emperor, and he has a lot of advice. On the other hand, there are some differences with Zhu Youzhen's concept, Zhu Youzhen's concept, after all, has been mixed with many modern people's management ideas! If you have to explain everything to Wang Chengen, it's too tiring! He thought that he would wait until he had done the big thing, and then slowly let Wang Chengen participate, maybe the effect would be better, sometimes he could really only do things alone! Especially when doing big things, there are too many discussions and too many scruples, which is not necessarily a good thing!
In the pitch-black prison, Xu Xianchun had already shouted hoarse in his throat! "Let me out, I want to see the emperor! Let me out! I want to see the emperor! β
A rush of footsteps came, making Xu Xianchun stare ahead in fear, trying to identify the person who came, and said in his heart, the emperor won't kill if he says kill, right? How are you going to kill me? Is it a vegetable market, or is it a secret Lingchi?
A few torches lit up in the prison, and in the firelight was Yang Siqing, who Xu Xianchun usually looked down on the most, Yang Siqing covered his mouth and smiled, "Yo, isn't this the majestic Jinyi Wei Zhenfu Si Xu?" The emperor said that he was locked up with Master Xu, but he didn't say that he was locked up? You minions, don't hurry up and let go of Lord Xu. β
Xu Xianchun's old face turned red, he didn't expect Yang Siqing to fall into the well, and hurriedly said in a hoarse voice, "Thank you Yang Gonggong for taking care of you." When will the emperor deal with the old man's affairs? The old man was wronged, it was Xu Yingyuan and Cao Huachun who framed the old man and squeezed the old man with words, the old man didn't hold back for a while, and he definitely didn't mean to offend Tianwei. The old man must be grateful, and he must be grateful for the picture! β
Yang Siqing covered his mouth, smiled very much, and stretched out an orchid finger, "Yo, Lord Xu, don't do this, such an old slave can't stand it!" You all go down, our family and Lord Xu are also old acquaintances, today, our family will accompany Lord Xu to drink a glass of send-off wine. β
Xu Xianchun was so frightened that he sat on the ground, and a pair of old eyes were highly raised! "What? What is the send-off wine? Is the emperor really going to kill the old man? The old man is useful, and the old man has to be loyal to the emperor! I want to see the emperor! I want to see the emperor! β
Xu Xianchun fell to the ground weakly and groaned! I only feel that this dark prison is full of unjust souls waiting for revenge! When Lord Xu killed Yang Lian, he first pressed it with a sandbag, but if he didn't crush him, he changed it to a hammer! hasn't been killed yet, and finally changed to use iron to pass through the eardrum, Yang Lian's vitality is also amazingly strong, even if he is tortured like this, he still doesn't die! In the end, Xu Xianchun actually ordered his subordinates to pour a huge iron punch from the top of Yang Lian's head! Yang Lian is dead now, it can be seen that Xu Xianchun's methods are cruel, thousands of people have died in his hands, how can he not be afraid if he is staying here in person now?
After a long time, Xu Xianchun regained his consciousness a little, only to see that there was no one else in the prison, only Yang Siqing was left holding a wine glass, sipping slowly.
Xu Xianchun hurriedly knelt down and crawled in front of Yang Siqing, "Father-in-law Yang, the old man was arrogant before, you have a lot of adults, don't worry about the old man, this time you must save the old man's life!" As long as Gonggong Yang can save the old man this time, the old man promises! 100,000 taels! Never break your word! β
Yang Siqing shook his head slowly, "Difficult, the emperor's character, you and I should be clear, our emperor is a young and promising saint!" The desire to work hard is well known to everyone in the world! Moreover, the emperor is most disgusted that his subordinates are fighting each other! Especially close ministers like you, important ministers, which are more important than those ministers in the court. β
Xu Xianchun wiped his sweat, his white hair was scattered, and his hands covered with blood from the huge iron rope supported his fat body, and pounced on the table, "Grandpa Yang, these old men understand, now I just ask Grandpa Yang to make amends!" I heard that Wang Chengen has lost power, your father-in-law Yang is not a big celebrity in front of the saint now? Besides, didn't I just kick Xu Yingyuan? It's not a big deal, is it? β
Yang Siqing poured a glass of wine for Xu Xianchun, "Come, Lord Xu, sit down and say, don't let the dishes get cold, this is the first-class wine and food that our family has prepared for you for thousands of years!" β
Xu Xianchun took the wine glass in a daze, not daring to drink, "Father-in-law Yang, you just said that this is a send-off wine, what does it mean?" In the end, how does the saint want the old man to die? Or do you want to die today? Or, did you bring poisoned wine? β
Yang Siqing didn't answer Xu Xianchun's words, he looked around, touched his chin with his hand, and drank a glass of wine, "Lord Xu, you have also been the pacification director for so many years in vain!" When you enter here, who cares about you big or small? Have you ever seen people who come in here and then go out? Don't say 100,000 taels, it's 1 million taels, do I dare to take it? What is the use of having money and not life? β
Xu Xianchun looked at the wine in front of him in a daze, didn't dare to drink it, but wanted to drink it very much, and muttered to himself, "So, the old man can't escape this disaster this time?" β
Yang Siqing smiled slightly, "In my opinion, it may not be, I said that you drink, rest assured, there is no poison!" If the emperor wants to kill you, you will die with a casual word, why is it so troublesome? β
Xu Xianchun seemed to hear a glimmer of hope, and picked up the wine glass as if he had made a lot of determination, tilted his neck, and drank the glass of wine with a bang! "Father-in-law Yang, you teach the old man quickly, if you enter here, can you really go out?"
Yang Siqing smiled and drank a glass of wine, "Lord Xu, you are smart and confused for a while!" How old are you? The emperor is soft-hearted, you see that the emperor hasn't even killed Wei Zhongxian, where will it be your turn? β
Xu Xianchun snorted, poured himself a glass of wine, and drank three glasses in a row, only then did he ease up, "The old man is already a little confused now, please Yang Gonggong only discipline me, the old man will never break his promise!" β
Yang Siqing snorted and tapped the table gently, "Lord Xu, you, you have to put down everything now, the emperor's thoughts, the old slave still knows a little!" What about the emperor, didn't he want to use you? You yourself want to have a discord with Xu Yingyuan, which makes the emperor angry, you must be angry that you are too small-minded! β
Xu Xianchun's eyebrows opened a little, and he nodded, "Hmm! It should be like this, the old man regrets it now! So, is there a way to remedy it now? β
Yang Siqing nodded, "It's not that there is no way, it depends on whether you want to die or money!" β
Xu Xianchun's eyes rolled and wiped the sweat on his head, "You mean, let me donate all my family property to the emperor and buy my own life?" β
Yang Siqing shook his head, "Family property alone is obviously not enough, the emperor has no concept of silver, but the emperor is an aspiring emperor, you should have more experience than our family, right?" You need to be able to show your talents! In this way, maybe the emperor will remember to use you in the future! β
Xu Xianchun sighed, "Then say, Gonggong Yang, don't go around the corner, just say it clearly, the old man is grateful!" β
Yang Siqing said with a smile, "Okay, then our family will say it directly, Lord Xu, if you want to save your life this time, you must reverse the emperor's impression of you, right?" β
Xu Xianchun nodded and poured Yang Siqing a glass of wine.
Yang Siqing drank the wine and said with a smile, "This is actually not difficult to say, why did you offend the emperor?" Isn't it that the emperor wants Xu Yingyuan to take over your Jinyiwei errand, aren't you happy, in my opinion, in the short term, you have no way to take over Jinyiwei! Instead of this, it is better for you to simply list the big and small affairs of Jinyiwei, no matter how big or small, and list the things you have mastered to the emperor in detail! You think, if the emperor doesn't use your people, after a long time, these people will rebel themselves! can't be restrained, if the emperor uses the people you stayed, maybe one day when he is in a good mood, he thinks of you again? β
Xu Xianchun said with a smile, "Yes, yes, yes, or Yang Gonggong has insight, in the end, he is the henchman of the saint!" That's true! That's it, the old man transferred all the Jinyi Wei affairs he knew to the emperor, just to be able to get a goodbye to the old man and return to his hometown! Let's save my life for the time being! β
Yang Siqing shook his head, "NaΓ―ve, Lord Xu, you are naΓ―ve now, you think, you handed over all the errands of Jinyiwei to the emperor, the emperor will be happy, but you can't let the emperor agree to let you out of this prison!" It's okay if you don't have an accident, but when you have an accident, do you know that the impeachment of you is about to fill the room? β
Xu Xianchun groaned and didn't speak, this doesn't need Yang Siqing to tell himself, he can also guess! The tree fell and scattered, let alone he, a man covered in blood? "Then, I will donate another 100,000 taels of silver to the emperor! It's all done, right? I said, I donated all my net worth! Destitute, I just want to be able to go back to my hometown and be an idle person! β
Yang Siqing glanced at Xu Xianchun, "Childish, still naΓ―ve!" Lord Xu, if you give our family 100,000 taels and the emperor 100,000 taels, will the emperor believe that you only have 100,000 taels? Do you know how much silver Cui Chengxiu's house copied? That's more than 600,000 taels! Wait a minute, the emperor thinks you're playing tricks! You're even more in trouble! β
Xu Xianchun poured himself a glass of wine, "Father-in-law Yang, don't hide it, he Cui Chengxiu is richer than me!" I estimate that my entire net worth is less than 400,000 taels at most, and I will give you 100,000 taels! Where can I go to get 600,000 taels for the emperor? Just say a few kind words for me! Just say, I only have 100,000 taels! It's my whole net worth! Do you think it's okay? β
Yang Siqing sighed, "Lord Xu, you also think too highly of me!" I'm just a eunuch, do I have so much energy? Today, I'm just looking at the past friendship and giving you an idea, how to do it, it's up to you! In my opinion, if you really don't have so much silver, you might as well just don't hide anything! Put all your money where you hide it, and then you know the things of the brocade guard! All of them were written and presented to the emperor! As long as you can go back to your hometown, I heard that your hometown has also purchased a lot of properties? At least you can be a rich man! Besides, when the emperor is in a good mood, maybe he will be able to reinstate you as an official? β
Xu Xianchun nodded, "Since this is the case, then thank you Yang Gonggong, but don't worry, as long as I can go back to my hometown, I will sell my house and land, and I will also make up 100,000 taels of silver to repay Yang Gonggong for saving his life today!" β
Yang Siqing smiled and nodded, | Lord Xu's character, I Yang Siqing can be trusted! I also look forward to Lord Xu relieving himself of this strength in the future! Don't forget to promote Yang Siqing. As the saying goes, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse! We believe that with your talent! In the future, there will still be a time to soar! β
Xu Xianchun is not a miser, he is still ruthless in his work! "Father-in-law Yang, thank you for your great kindness! I'm going to start writing now! I beg you to wait a little longer and help me present the fold to the emperor! I'm afraid that if you forget the old man again, you will really starve to death in this hellish place! The old man hasn't eaten a little food for a day today! These dog minions, this is trying to starve the old man to death! The old man really doesn't want to stay here for a moment! β
Yang Siqing nodded, "Lord Xu, look away, the rules here are all set by yourself at the beginning!" You write it, and I will present it to the emperor for you in a while, but we can remind Lord Xu that you must not hide anything, since you plan to confess your heart to the emperor, you must leave no room for it! The emperor will send someone to verify! If you say it, you don't say it clearly, and you die in vain, it's really naΓ―ve! β
Xu Xianchun nodded, "Father-in-law Yang, the old man has been an official for ten years!" This matter is still very important! I'll explain everything! I just hope that the emperor can open the net, for the sake of the old man's loyalty, let the old man return to his hometown, there is nothing else to ask for! β
In the dark room on the top of the prison, Chongzhen Emperor Zhu Youzhen said softly, "I don't know, will Xu Xianchun explain clearly?" β
Wang Chengen replied softly in the emperor's ear, "Look at this, eight or nine are not far from ten!" β
