Why is the reputation of the eunuchs so bad? In addition to the reversal of the black by the descendants of the Donglin Han Jiān Party, there are also some shameless villains in the eunuch party, such as Cui Chengxiu is an outstanding representative of this kind of people. In the words of later generations, that is a grain of rat feces spoiled a pot of porridge, their existence makes the descendants of the Donglin Party very pleased, because from these eunuch scum, they can find a trace of comfort in their hearts, and they can also shirk all the dirty things that their parents and even themselves have done, so as to wash themselves in vain, and turn into a righteous Donglin gentleman party from the scum of Donglin, which has brought disaster to the country, and the eunuch party that once harmed them has become a genuine shameless villain group.

In fact, there is no boundary between right and wrong, everything is only about need. When needed, what is right is wrong, and what is wrong is right; When it's not needed, it doesn't matter whether it's right or wrong.

Cui Chengxiu, who was not treated by the Donglin Party, made an earth-shattering "career" in the appointment of governor of Huaiyang, and also responded to the famous words of the people of the time who commented on the words of the Taoist officials - the imperial history travel, can not shake the mountains, shock the state and county, and is incompetent. Compared with this famous saying, Cui Chengxiu's name is quite competent, but... It's just that he used it the other way he wanted.

During his tenure as governor of Huaiyang, Cui Chengxiu fully shared the advantages of "rats are good for profit", and everywhere he went, he openly asked his subordinates to bribe him, and even "stole bribes to release them, and forgive them for bribery"! According to the secret report of Huaiyang Fanzi in Dongchang, some local thieves can be acquitted as long as they hand over 30 taels of silver to Governor Cui. After Cui Chengxiu heard about this, he first bluffed and threatened to impeach, and when Zheng Tingzuo heard about it, he immediately panicked and hurriedly gave Cui Yushi 1,000 taels of silver, Cui accepted the silver, and the matter was over.

As for why Cui Chengxiu put the price of the bribe so low, just thirty taels of silver can make people acquittal, Yuan Dahai is also very depressed and confused, he really can't understand why Governor Cui is so hungry to eat, in the end, he can only use Inspector Cui to do business like "Tong Suo is not bullied... The price code is fair" to understand, or maybe this is the "Cui's" corrupt official operation technique that flows for a long time, with small profits and quick turnover, and accumulates a lot.

In addition, in addition to openly accepting bribes, Cui Chengxiu also took over the lawsuit. However, all local great evils or condemned prisoners can be exempted from punishment or have their sentences commuted as long as they use money to bribe. And so on for a few years... Cui Zaihuai and Yang asked for bribes, no less than 100,000 taels! In addition, Cui Chengxiu also lent the opportunity to patrol and borrow money along the prefecture and county, so as to fill the bag and overdraft as much as 14,000 taels... The prefectures and counties complained bitterly, and Qi said: "Since I came to patrol the imperial history, I have never seen such a big greed as Cui Chengxiu!" ”

With such evil deeds and such a notoriety, it is natural that he often walks by the river, how can he not get his shoes wet. Half a month ago, Cui Chengxiu was almost sentenced to exile as an army, and in desperation, he went to join Wei Zhongxian late at night, because of the corrupt things he did in Huaiyang, and the person who exposed him was Gao Panlong, who had just been appointed by the Apocalypse as the imperial concubine of the left capital!

Last September... Gao Panlong was ordered to Wuxi to supervise the price of horses... Going back and forth between Huai and Yang, he heard that Cui Chengxiu did not ask for bribes, and he was angry, so he was ready to impeach Cui Chengxiu after returning to Beijing. And Choi Chengxiu didn't know anything about it... is still tirelessly continuing his embezzlement business.

Since Zheng Tingzuo, the commander of Nahuoqiu County, knew that Cui Chengxiu was a greedy person for money since he sent silver to avoid disasters, so he gritted his teeth and sent another thousand silver to beg Cui to recommend himself as a prefect.

One thousand taels of silver is going to recommend the prefect, this amount is too light, I never thought that Cui Chengxiu was not too little, and he actually promised to open up the joint for Zheng on the spot, and even personally wrote a letter of recommendation to the ministry. Zheng Tingzuo was eager to be promoted, and immediately sent two family members to take Cui's recommendation and take the silver to the capital to pay homage to the official department Shangshu ** star. Unexpectedly, Zheng Tingzuo's two family members actually worshiped the wrong temple, and ran to the Metropolitan Procuratorate with the recommendation letter written by Cui Chengxiu.

Coincidentally, Gao Panlong happened to return to the capital that day, and when he was about to arrive at the Metropolitan Procuratorate, he found that there were two people kneeling in front of him with a document in hand.

The "form" stated that sixty taels of silver were given, and then a closer look at the "Qi" and "Yu", it turned out to be a letter of recommendation from Governor Huai and Yang Yu Shi Cui Chengxiu, and a resume of Zheng Tingzuo, the commander of Huoqiu County, Fengyang Prefecture. Gao Panlong was shocked after reading it, and said in his heart that at the feet of this son of heaven, he dared to come to bribe in broad daylight, this Cui Chengxiu and Zheng Tingzuo are really bold? Especially this Cui Chengxiu, he hasn't found him to settle the account, so he actually sent it to the door himself!

Gao Panlong, who was furious, immediately sent his subordinates to send Zheng Tingzuo's two family members and Shuyi to the Xicheng Terracotta Division for management, and then went to the emperor to request that Zheng Tingzuo be punished according to the law. Three days later, the apocalypse criticized the first sī feed, which shows that the public strictness. Zheng Tingzuo was handed over to the Department of Justice for strict trial.

Gao Panlong read the holy decree, and thought in his heart that Zheng Tingzuo was not the only one who bought the official, and he had to investigate it in-depth, or he could directly bring Cui Chengxiu out to save trouble. Sure enough, after some investigation, Gao Panlong quickly found out that the new two Huaiyun Divisions knew Tan Tianxiang, who had been impeached for bribery in the past, and then gave Cui Chengxiu a thousand silver to be exempted, and then Tan sent a thousand gold to Cui Chengxiu, and Cui then recommended Tan to be the same knowledge of the two Huaiyun Divisions. After Gao Panlong learned the details, he quickly reported the matter of Zheng and Yu to Zuo Guangdou, the head of the Metropolitan Procuratorate.

According to the usual practice, the governor and the governor must go through the assessment of the imperial history of the Imperial Procuratorate, and those who are competent in the assessment can be reinstated. After Zuo Guangdou and Gao Panlong discussed, they decided to review it when Cui returned to Beijing.

Cui Chengxiu returned to Beijing in March of the beginning of the year, and as soon as he arrived in the capital, Zuo Guangdou asked Yuan Huazhong, the head of the imperial history, to check him. Verification is the rule, Cui Chengxiu didn't go to his heart, but the verification came and went, he found that it was not good, Yuan Huazhong didn't know who he was instructed by, everything was aimed at himself, and he knew everything he did in Huai and Yang, looking at him like that, which is verification, it is simply to send himself into the class!

Cui Chengxiu, who was shocked, suddenly muttered his senses, he has no one in the court, he wants to join the Donglin Party, and people don't want to see him, this will happen, but no one will protect him. In desperation, he had to pretend to be pitiful and beg Yuan Huazhong's subordinates to show mercy, cover up for himself, and turn this matter into a small one, and a small matter. But Yuan Huazhong was instructed by Zuo Guangdou and Gao Panlong, and he must take down you Cui Chengxiu, how can he let you pass? Listening impatiently, Suo Xìng got up and picked up the confessions of Zheng Tingzuo and Tan Tianxiang from the table and threw them to Cui, Cui Chengxiu was speechless when he saw it, and the whole person collapsed to the ground, with only two words in his mind - it's over!

Li Yingsheng was mainly responsible for drafting the chapter in the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and Gao Panlong asked him to draft a note to impeach Cui Chengxiu, and Cui Chengxiu didn't know where to get the news, so he immediately wanted to go to Li Yingsheng for help.

In the dead of night one day, Li Yingsheng was writing "The Imperial History of Impeachment and Corruption" at home, Cui Chengxiu broke in without notice, and saw Li Yingsheng kneeling on the ground with a "plop", unable to hold back for a long time, and pleaded in his mouth: "For the sake of the same Taiwan official, please Brother Li write a superlife, don't let me end up in exile and refuge in the army." ”

Li Yingsheng is a righteous and awe-inspiring person, and he can't tolerate evil villains in his eyes, turning a blind eye to Cui's plea for mercy, and said with a righteous face: "The matter is fair, Li Mou dare to hide it?" After finishing speaking, he didn't even look at Cui Chengxiu, and shouted to the servants outside, "Send off!" ”

In desperation, Cui Chengxiu had no choice but to leave the Li family in disgrace, seeing that he was hit by walls everywhere, no one rescued him, and his heart died in despair, so he waited for the final fall of the imperial court. Even he made preparations in advance, sold all the valuable things at home, and let his wife and children take them back to his hometown first, so as to save all the money when he raided the house.

Li Yingsheng gave it to Gao Panlong after he prepared the recital, and Gao Panlong immediately went to ask his teacher and the official department Shangshu **xing for their opinions on dealing with Cui Chengxiu. Gao Panlong proposed to dismiss Cui Chengxiu and return to his hometown, but he didn't want to ** Xing, but he said angrily, "It's too light!" Immediately, he said indignantly: "Cui Chengxiu is despicable and cunning, and he doesn't practice as a monk, so in my opinion, send him to death!" ”

The dispatch is to fill the army, Gao Panlong is the protégé of **Xing, **Xing has decided, he naturally has no objections, so he nodded and said: "Dispatching is not an exaggeration, just do what the teacher instructs!" ”

After all, Cui Chengxiu is the imperial history of Governor Huaiyang, although the Metropolitan Procuratorate and the Ministry of Officials have convicted him, but it is still up to the cabinet to discuss it. But both the DPRK and the Central Committee are members of the Donglin Party, and the first and second assistants are also members of the Donglin Party, so this court meeting is just a formality, and in the end, the result of the court meeting is that it is unanimously agreed to exile Choi Chengxiu into the army!

After the cabinet proposed the performance was sent to the Qianqing Palace, Tianqi didn't know anything Cui Chengxiu, and when he saw that he was a corrupt and perverted law, he didn't even think about it, so he criticized four words on it: dismissal and investigation!

Wei Zhongxian, Wang Tiqian, and Li Yongzhen knew Cui Chengxiu, but this person was not in the same group as them, so they didn't bother to pay attention to him.

As the saying goes, there is no endless road, and as the saying goes, there will be blessings after the disaster!

Just when Cui Chengxiu was cornered, God knows if someone pointed him out, or if a flash of light flashed in his mind and he thought of taking Wei Zhongxian's path! In short, in the middle of the night, Master Cui resolutely gave up all the faces of the so-called scholars, and rushed towards Dongchang Hutong with a hurry and speed that ten cows could not pull back, and finally staged the shameless and wonderful scene that Yuan Dahai saw in front of the Wei Mansion - a "son kowtowed to his father" made him successfully win Wei Zhongxian's favor, and the next day he got the central decree of the palace, and became a member of the "eunuch party" from then on.

Of course, it is precisely because of Cui Chengxiu that Yuan Dahai has the opportunity to appear and attract Wei Zhongxian's attention, if it weren't for Cui Chengxiu, Yuan Dahai would still be guarding the door in that boring way.

Speaking of which, I don't know if I want to thank Cui Chengxiu. Yuan Dahai secretly smiled bitterly, this Cui Chengxiu is a personal essence, and after joining the Eunuch Party, he has contributed a lot to the defeat of the Donglin Party, which can be seen from his ranking at the top of the "Five Tigers". But this man is greedy for money, and he is an out-and-out scum, which is really difficult for people to be kind.

With such a thought, Yuan Huangran was respectful of Cui, and he really didn't want to mingle with Cui Chengxiu until he had to. However, everything in the world can be as he wishes, he doesn't want to go together with Cui Chengxiu, but Cui Chengxiu must go with him Yuan Dahai.
