Guo Zhen said: "Is it really so serious? ”

Duan Fei nodded and said, "It's okay for Jinyi Wei to be implicated, the two of you are bound to be implicated." ”

Zhang Rui thought for a moment and said slowly: "Is there something wrong with Ryan?" ”

Duan Fei praised: "Gonggong Zhang is really active, yes, it is that there is something wrong with Ryan, in the early dynasty, they will definitely attack the two of them with Ryan, and the only way at present is to retreat as advance, and preemptively implore the emperor to completely abolish the establishment of eunuchs and eunuchs in charge of various towns." ”

Zhang Rui sneered: "Lord Duan's good idea, the eunuchs guarding the town have been gradually removed, if even the eunuchs in charge have been removed, will there still be a place for us in the future?" ”

Duan Fei glanced at Zhang Rui and said, "Why is Gonggong Zhang so short-sighted? Instead of keeping these things that are difficult to control and will only harm people, just like cutting off the cancer on the body, it will only be beneficial, otherwise it will be used by people to attack the two fathers-in-law, not only will the Kaihaitong Chamber of Commerce be affected, but the two fathers-in-law will even have to worry about their lives. ”

"Lord Duan is a bit alarmist, isn't he?" Zhang Yue sneered.

Duan Fei shook his head and said: "Duan Mou came here with sincerity today, but I didn't expect Gonggong Zhang to treat me like a snake and scorpion, no matter what, these materials will spread sooner or later, I might as well use it as a stepping stone, and give it to Yang Ge Lao or Wang Shangshu or Zhang Shangshu casually." ”

Duan Fei took out a few materials from his sleeve and shook them in front of the two, Zhang Rui was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly said: "Lord Duan, slow down, if you have something to say, these things, why don't you let me see them first?" ”

Duan Fei pursed a sneer at the corner of his mouth and said, "Is Grandpa Zhang afraid?" Ryan has a lot of goodies to offer to the two of you every month, right? Although the records here are incomplete, they are quite a lot, and I heard that he had the largest smuggling fleet in the entire East China Sea before the opening of the sea, and the amount of silver money exchanged in business every year is innumerable, I wonder if he ever gave one percent of the benefits to two? Jiang Bin has collapsed, Qian Ning has fallen, who is supporting Ryan now? There are so many Ryan in the world, Father-in-law Zhang, if it weren't for the fact that I had also sent some silver to my father-in-law, and wanted to go my way, I was worried that I would find out about me in the end, so I didn't bother to care about Ryan's affairs. ”

Zhang Rui gritted his teeth and said, "I can't imagine that Lord Duan still remembers these old things so clearly, what else do I have to say?" Master Duan, you can draw the next line! ”

The sky was bright, when the first rays of morning light shone on the noon gate, the noon gate creaked open, and the hundred officials who had been waiting in front of the door walked in turn, each of them was full of worries, and the folds in their sleeves were also heavy, most of the people's eyes were black, they were busy all night like Duan Fei, and many people even came with a heart of death.

On the Jinluan Palace, the hundred officials knelt on the ground and shouted three long live, Zhengde glanced at them energetically, sat down confidently, and said: "Everyone, Aiqing is flat, today I am a little unwell, and I have nothing to do to retreat. ”

Everyone is waiting for it, how can it stop there? Hearing Zhengde's words, more than a dozen officials stood up with Qi Shushu, and they said in unison: "Your Majesty, Weichen has a book!" ”

Zhengde was playing, he couldn't help laughing, pointed to Duan Fei, who had two golden horns on his head and the most eye-catching, and said, "Duan Aiqing, you can say it first." ”

Duan Fei said solemnly: "Your Majesty, Wechen received the information from Jiangnan, which is very different from the information sent by the eight hundred miles of urgency yesterday, Wechen suspects that the eunuch Lai En, the steward of Ningbo City, is corrupt and bends the law, accepts bribes, and reverses black and white in dealing with the true and false tribute envoys, so that the true tribute envoys are wronged and oppressed, and finally draw their swords and fight back. ”

"Oh? Is there such a thing? Duan Aiqing, is your intelligence source reliable? Zhengde asked deliberately.

Duan Fei said with great certainty: "Weichen dares to use the head of Xiang as a guarantee!" The intelligence has been verified by many parties, and there is no doubt about it! ”

Few people doubted Duan Fei's words, the few people who stood up first quietly retreated, Duan Fei was in front, and their words for the night were in vain.

Yang Yiqing and Wang Shouren asked Duan Fei a few questions respectively, Duan Fei answered like a stream, everyone finally understood the truth of the incident, just when everyone changed their thinking and planned to attack the eunuch group, the two leaders of the eunuch group knelt down to Zhengde and pleaded guilty, tearfully asked the emperor to investigate Ryan strictly, and put forward a suggestion that everyone could not think of: "There are many illegal acts of the eunuchs in charge of various places, please order the emperor to conduct a strict investigation, in order to prevent recurrence in the future, the old slave asks the emperor to send an edict to abolish the eunuchs in charge of various places, and never return!" ”

Not only the civil and military officials were surprised, but Zhengde was very surprised, and before he could ask, the civil and military officials who seized the opportunity all seconded the proposal in unison.

Yang Yiqing and Zhang Yue drafted the holy decree, Zhengde stamped the big seal, and the eunuchs and eunuchs who had been entangled in the Ming Dynasty for more than 100 years were withdrawn.

This result was beyond everyone's expectations, better than everyone expected, and when the decree came, everyone looked at each other, and they didn't know what to do. ”

"Your Majesty, Weichen still has this Qilu." Duan Fei coughed lightly and said, "Your Majesty, Ryan and the others should take it back to the capital as soon as possible, verify their crimes and punish them according to the law, and send a messenger to Jiangnan to appease the officials and people who were harassed by the attack, deal with the aftermath, and when the situation is stable, they should reopen the market in time and continue to open the sea for trade." ”

Zhengde said: "Who should this Qin send to?" Duan Aiqing, you just came back from Shaanxi, and now that you know that it is just a hundred or so Japanese tribute envoys making trouble, you don't need Aiqing to go out, do you have a suitable candidate? ”

Wang Shouren suggested: "Your Majesty, Weichen recommended the Ministry of Officials to Wang Jinglong, he grew up in Jiangnan since he was a child, he is familiar with the situation in Jiangnan, and he is smart and capable, with outstanding ability, he is a suitable candidate." ”

Zhengde hesitated: "Give it to the middle of the matter?" Is the position a little lower? ”

Wang Shouren said: "Has the emperor forgotten? A few years ago, the emperor also assigned him to go to Shanxi to inspect the mile, he has experience, and he will be able to successfully complete the task of the governor with ease. ”

Zhengde hesitated and glanced at Duan Fei, Duan Fei smiled and said, "Your Majesty, Weichen also thinks that Lord Wang Jinglong is very suitable, but ...... At present, the movement of the sect is unknown, and in order to prevent him from escaping from the sea, other arrangements need to be made. ”

Guo Zhen stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty, Weichen is willing to go to Jiangnan in person, lead the sailors to exterminate the pirates, and pacify the sea frontier for the Ming Dynasty, please ask the emperor for permission!" ”

Yang Yiqing said: "Your Majesty, since Lord Duan guarantees that Zongshi is a real Japanese tribute envoy, then this matter must be handled with caution, the envoys cannot be treated like ordinary Japanese envoys, the Ming Dynasty is the upper country of the Celestial Empire, compared to the small neighboring countries, Weichen thinks that he should be treated with sincerity, if the Japanese tribute mission can return safely without damaging one person, they will definitely be grateful to my Celestial Empire and ......the kingdom of the Celestial Empire."

"It's a fart!" When Yang Yiqing was talking with relish, someone suddenly interrupted him unceremoniously, and the Jinluan Hall was suddenly silent......
