Chapter 922: Two Things, Power and Money! middle
"What the emperor ordered is that the slave is worried that the emperor's dragon body is a little messy, and these people must be caught and then find out the mastermind behind the scenes!"
Then he turned back to Gao Jingfei and bowed:
"Qin Daoren, since Daoist can see that the emperor's dragon body is sick, I don't know if there is a way to save it? Please also spare no time to help, Zhongxian is grateful......"
For ordinary people, for the gratitude of this 9,000-year-old who holds great power, it must be a heartbeat and try to do it with all his heart.
But Gao Jingfei just smiled faintly, he had already prepared for Wei Zhongxian's questioning.
I saw him wave his hand again and release two glass bottles, inside which was a crystal light, a clear liquid with a slight golden light.
"This is the Moon Spiritual Spring Water and the Sun Holy Water, both of which are spiritual springs that nourish vitality, restore physical strength, and correct and dispel evils.
Wei Zhongxian was overjoyed when he saw it, Of course, he didn't dare to let the emperor take these directly, after all, this Huashan Qin Dao person was still a person of unknown origin to them strictly speaking.
So Wei Zhongxian carefully poured out a little bit of two spiritual springs, took them with his own body, and then suddenly realized the beauty of this spiritual spring.
It's just that Wei Zhongxian is still not at ease, and wants to wait for a while to see how he is, but Zhu Youxiao directly picked up the bottle, stopped Wei Zhongxian's dissuasion, and raised his neck in his worried eyes and took a sip of each.
One bite is one-third, half is warm and half cool Lingquan belly, Zhu Youxiao only felt that a warmth quickly spread to the limbs, and a coolness followed, penetrating the heavenly spirit, and before he could feel it carefully, he suddenly felt a wave of nausea in his chest and abdomen, and then leaned over and vomited on the spot.
Seeing the emperor vomiting, Wei Zhongxian was shocked, on the one hand to help the emperor, on the other hand to the Taoist angry eyes, just about to question, when he heard Gao Jingfei say:
"It doesn't matter, this is a detoxification reaction, the toxins in Your Majesty's body are stagnant, except for the residues in the chest, lungs, intestines and stomach, and the deep poison is estimated to need to go to the toilet several times before it can be drained."
After listening to Gao Jingfei's explanation, Wei Zhongxian was skeptical, but kept stroking the emperor's back.
And although Zhu Youxiao's foundation is a little weaker, he is young in the end, and under the effect of the two spiritual springs, he quickly spit out a bunch of bloodshot purple and black dirt.
These things are not good things at first glance.
Zhu Youxiao, who had finished vomiting, sat down slowly with the support of Wei Zhongxian, and then felt that the whole person seemed to be light and happy, so he smiled:
"Haha, big companion, I think it's great, the spiritual spring of the Taoist is really effective!"
Wei Zhongxian was also overjoyed, and apologized and thanked Gao Jingfei again and again.
Gao Jingfei also shook his head kindly, indicating that it was okay.
"Duke Wei is just loyal to the lord, how can I blame him?"
In his opinion, this Wei Zhongxian actually did not have the kind of pomp and circumstance that later generations had in the impression of flying and domineering and wearing gold and silver, but was an ordinary servant who served the emperor with all his heart.
However, in later generations, whether it is the official history or the wild history, it is written by scholars, and as a hostile party in the struggle for power with the imperial power represented by the eunuchs, it is natural that Wei Zhongxian will not have anything good to say!
In fact, history records that Wei Zhongxian plagued the world, but in fact, wherever the factory security investigators under his command went, no matter whether the case was false or true, true or false, they were to be put to pieces.
But they are all aimed at the people in the officialdom, and they have nothing to do with the ordinary people at all, but the public opinion is in the hands of the so-called Qingliu, and the military attaches and nobles are also very jealous and hostile to them, so the reputation of the factory guards is ruined, and the people are afraid of them like tigers.
And the factory guards also hated these big turbans for saying bad things about them everywhere, so most of the clear streams that fell into the hands of the factory guards were not good, which further exacerbated the conflict between the two.
To put it bluntly, in the final analysis, it is nothing more than a struggle for power and interests between the imperial power and the civil officials.
When the emperor completely returned to normal from Fang Cai's abnormality, and even the energetic did not look like a person who had been poisoned at all, he personally thanked Gao Jingfei again, and then continued the previous topic.
"Thanks to the Taoist for saving me this time, I agreed to your two requests, Xiong Tingbi himself is innocent, so he should naturally be pardoned and reinstated, but what do Yang Lian and the others have to do with the Taoist?"
He just heard that the Taoist revealed the bottom of those clear streams, and felt that this Taoist should not be a faction of the Donglin Party, but he wanted to save Yang Lian, Zuo Guangdou and others who were in prison, so it was really a bit contradictory.
Gao Jingfei chuckled and explained:
"Your Majesty doesn't know, I actually have nothing to do with the Donglin Party, this time I ask Your Majesty to pardon them, not for myself, as Fang just said, for Your Majesty's consideration!"
Zhu Youxiao and Wei Zhongxian didn't doubt anything this time, because the performance of the Daoist before had already proved his actual attitude.
I saw the Taoist continue:
"The so-called six gentlemen of Donglin, Yang Lianzuo Guangdou, but Confucianism is just a reckless man, if you talk about Confucianism or great talent, it is useless to be strong and prosperous, Confucianism has been playing for more than 2,000 years, how can there have been more than 500 years of dynasty?"
"The so-called time has changed, that set is outdated, it is used to teach and educate people and is still useful, but it is necessary to consider one or two when it is used to govern the country, take its few essences, and discard most of its dross."
Therefore, if Your Majesty executes these men, it will give them the opportunity to win sympathy and spread the praise among the people. In this way, it is better to announce their crimes to the world first, and then announce that they have been pardoned, but the death penalty can be avoided, and the living crime is unforgivable, so they can be sent to Xiangxi, Yunxi or Qiongzhou and other remote places to be a county official, and squeeze them so that they will do their best for the Ming Dynasty in the rest of their lives! ”
"If you can really educate a few local people because of this, it can be regarded as a waste utilization, wouldn't it also be beneficial to the country? And Your Majesty, because you have pardoned them, you have earned a good reputation among the people for being a generous and benevolent monarch! ”
"In this way, it is difficult for the Qingliu in the Shilin to stain His Majesty's holy name, after all, although the scholars in the world are headed by Qingliu, there are many people who can't urinate with them!"
Zhu Youxiao was originally a little expert in the struggle for power, and when he heard this, his eyes couldn't help but shine, and he clapped his hands and shouted:
"Good way, good way! I don't want to, but you're still a good hand at playing with people's hearts! ”
Wei Zhongxian also felt that this person's method was too bad, no, it was too wonderful, not only punished the opponent, exiled the miasma as an official, and faced the threat of death and disease all the time, but also did not have to bear the infamy of the emperor, and let these big turbans exert their spare strength, and worked hard to educate the remote people for the Ming Dynasty, so wouldn't it kill three birds with one stone?
"Wei Banban, are you listening? Just go and do what Qin Daoren said, it is useless for those Donglin Party to be executed, but it is better to use waste! ”
Wei Zhongxian was also shocked when he heard this, in the past, he and his party only knew how to collect evidence and even forge evidence to try to bring down the enemy, but they never thought that such a good plan to draw money from the bottom of the kettle could kill birds with one stone, and today he can learn a trick!
So he hurriedly answered:
"It's the emperor, the slave will arrange it!"
After that, he hurriedly ordered the thick henchmen outside.
"Go to the edict of Jinyiwei and let the boys over there keep it! These people are of great use to me if I want them to live......"
This is lest his subordinates accidentally torture people to death in order to please themselves, or vent their anger at being smeared, and then it will be a bad dish!
But we must not delay the emperor's plan and affect the emperor's reputation.
Now Zhu Youxiao has a great interest in this strange Taoist priest in his heart, and he then asked:
"What you proposed is very good, and I have my own reward, but I see that you have a good understanding of the way of governing the country, can you tell me that this governance does not use Confucianism, so what else is it used?"
Wei Zhongxian couldn't help but prick up his ears, very interested in this.
Although he was originally a market gangster who didn't like to read, but since he entered the celebrant prison, in order not to be looked down upon by others, he has studied a lot of books, and often asked learned chamberlains to give him lectures and explanations, so his education level is by no means an illiterate person who can't read a lot of big characters slandered by those who read.
