Chapter 4: Mingjun

Wei Zhongxian fell, and there were many people who fell into the ground, and the happiest was Lao Wei's sworn enemy, the Donglin Party, impeaching Lao Wei, and counting the twists and turns of his and a party henchman's crimes, which filled Zhu Jian's dragon case.

This is the trend of the times, Zhu Jian also has a feeling that he is in the rivers and lakes, and he can't help it, however, it is necessary to eradicate Lao Wei's henchmen, and the eternal marriage is only one of the reasons, the main reason is that money is troublesome, only by copying the house can there be money, Zhu Jian feels that he is a little psychologically distorted, and likes to copy the minister's house.

Zhu Jian really wanted to personally lead the team to raid the house, so as not to be greedy by those bastard guys, but he was too busy to get out, so he could only let Wang Chengen send reliable henchmen to lead the team to raid the house, and let Queen Zhou send personal servants to dress up as eunuchs and supervise them on the spot to reduce losses as much as possible.

After Wang Chengen was fooled by his stick + radish, he became more loyal, and sternly warned the eunuchs who were responsible for leading the team to raid the house, and wanted to see the sun tomorrow, then be honest and take some benefits, don't blame our family for not reminding you, and you won't regret it until your head falls off.

With Wang Chengen's stern warnings and intimidation, the supervision of Queen Zhou's personal maids, and the supervision of Dongchang and Jinyiwei, the eunuchs who were responsible for leading the team to raid the house were much more honest, and they were not as greedy as before, but only took the amount within the tacit approval, and those wrestlers were also beneficial, and twenty taels of silver was also a small fortune, and they were all happy.

The real big one is Zhu Jian, who has copied hundreds of houses, and his small treasury has exceeded 10 million taels, several times more than the treasury of the Ming Dynasty, and with a lot of silver in his hand, his confidence has also increased a lot.

Daming's treasury also has an account, in order to avoid the gang of guards of the treasury from taking the opportunity to be greedy and reduce losses, Zhu Jian decreed, whether it is out of the treasury or in the warehouse, the future list is in duplicate or more, and one is retained after being submitted to him for review, and a copy is archived by the household department, conveying the message that I am in a bad mood one day, and I will send someone to check and check with the receipt.

Lao Wei's main henchmen were escorted to the entrance of the vegetable market, and for a while the heads were rolling, and the blood flowed like a river, which was a very scary thing, but the onlookers clapped their hands and applauded, and the Donglin Party cheered and celebrated, one by one they were so excited that they were so excited that they were tearful and snotty, and finally boiled their heads, and then they were grinding their fists and palms, and they were ready to grab peaches.

N many people lost their heads, and important departments such as the Sixth Department suddenly vacated a lot of vacancies, who were not hot-eyed, desperately connected to pull the relationship, let old friends help recommend, and some cheeky self-recommended, all kinds of twists and turns to grab official positions were once again piled up with Zhu Jian's dragon case.

The civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty have a lot to do with Lao Wei, and there are many people in the Donglin Party who have a relationship with Lao Wei, and if they really want to investigate, it is not too much to cut off tens of thousands of heads, Zhu Jian didn't want to make too much trouble, but he just dealt with Lao Wei's main henchmen, and other irrelevant personnel were let go.

There are some officials who are not deeply implicated for fear of being held accountable, and take the initiative to resign from the office, no way, the current Donglin Party is like a mad dog, but anyone who is not their own, as long as it hinders their official career, whether you have anything to do with Lao Wei or not, they all mercilessly participate in your book, the list of criminal evidence is varied, none of the officials in the late Ming Dynasty have a clean ass, and there are many criminal evidences that are indeed true.

As Zhu Jian, who is a traverser, is not in charge of the Donglin Party, he asked Wang Chengen to send the Dongchang minions to secretly meet those impeached officials, big stick + radish, coercion and temptation, squeezed out tens of thousands, tens, hundreds of thousands of taels of silver from these officials, and then personally summoned these officials, while counting the silver while comforting and encouraging, dispelling the fear in their hearts.

These officials are still a little capable, the machinery of the Ming Dynasty needs to operate normally, the most important thing is that these people must hate the Donglin Party in their hearts, it is he who uses it to restrain the strength of the Donglin Party, and now what is lacking is just a leader-level figure, if history does not go wrong, the big man who is working against the Donglin Party and will not die will soon appear.

How to deal with Lao Wei's corpse, the court is noisy, the Donglin Party is menacing, saliva sprays wildly, whipping corpses, feeding dogs, chopping and other terrifying ways to deal with them, no one dares to stand up and speak for Lao Wei, and the solemn Jinluan Palace has almost become a bargaining vegetable market.

"People die like lights go out, once a hundred are gone, bury them in Biyun Temple in Xiangshan and retreat." Zhu Jian stood up from the dragon chair, the dragon's body shook, Wang Ba's momentum burst out, and without waiting for the hundred officials to react, he slapped his ass and left.

"Lao Wang, how did I handle this matter?" After returning to the hall to rest, Zhu Jian took a sip of fragrant tea, and then asked Wang Chengen, who was standing beside him.

"The emperor is wise." Wang Chengen didn't think about it and bowed in response, those Donglin Party eunuchs on the left and thieves on the right, which is equivalent to scolding all the eunuchs into it, even if he is unhappy in his heart, he can only look at his nose and nose, and he doesn't hear it.

Wei Zhongxian came to such a miserable end, that was what he brought on himself, he was not pitiful at all, but he was also a eunuch, he still had a trace of sympathy in his heart, and he also had a little disgust for the Donglin Party, everyone is dead, you still don't let it go, and you have to whip the corpse and chop it up and feed it to the dogs, it's too cruel, right? If one day, he is as unlucky as Lao Wei, what will happen?

This question, he was so scared that he didn't even dare to think about it, the emperor's handling was very wise, he agreed very much in his heart, the burial place selected by Lao Wei before his death was Xiangshan Biyun Temple, and the emperor could be regarded as helping him with his wish, which also gave him a sense of inexplicable comfort in his heart.

"Lao Wang, to be honest, Lao Wei is actually not useless." Zhu Jian said suddenly.

Wang Chengen was stunned, what does the emperor mean?

Zhu Jian ignored his stunned expression, and just said to himself, as a traverser, he knew and understood more than ordinary people.

To be honest, Wei Zhongxian is not all as useless as history describes, at least, he is much better than those so-called loyal, honest civil officials, just to name a few.

Xiong Yanbi, who was defeated in Liaoyang and suffered slander, did not show favoritism, and decisively dismissed Yuan Chonghuan, who could not flinch in the first battle of Ningjin, put aside personal grievances, and recommended a group of capable ministers such as Zhao Nanxing and Sun Chengzong against his will.

The imperial court had no money to collect taxes, and the merchants had money, but the merchants represented the Donglin Party, and they opposed raising taxes on the gentry, merchants, handicraftsmen, and mine owners.

When the war in Liaodong was tight, he was able to donate money to the state and use his private property to fund weapons, horses and other items in the war in Liaodong.

During the reign of Wei Zhongxian, the internal treasury was still able to allocate funds for disaster relief, the domestic situation was good, and the situation in Liaodong was stable, this ability, courage, and this merit should still be recognized and affirmed, on the contrary, the Donglin Party, which was full of benevolence and morality, loyalty and honesty, and was even more greedy than Wei Zhongxian, was the real force to force the people to rebel.

According to historical records, when Li Zicheng's army besieged Beijing, Emperor Chongzhen borrowed money from his subordinate officials, and wanted to use silver to motivate the soldiers who defended the city, but they couldn't borrow a penny, and that's it, those loyal civil officials also opened the city gate under the banner of protecting the people in the city, and let Li Zicheng's army enter the city, and then Li Zicheng squeezed out more than 70 million taels of silver, which is the so-called loyal and honest civil officials.

Zhu Jian just listed some good examples of Lao Wei, but didn't say anything about the back, for fear that Wang Chengen would be scared to death.

Wang Chengen, who was standing with his hands down, was full of cows, God bless me Ming, the emperor, the emperor.
