139 Wang Zhen handle (2-in-1)
Shen Yichen has a good temper, which doesn't mean that he is easy to bully, just when he was about to go up to reason with the man on horseback, Xu Fengyuan next to him grabbed him.
"Brother Shen, don't be impulsive, he is Wang Zhen's nephew Wang Shan."
If it is said that the children of Jingshi want to distinguish a level, then Wang Shan is undoubtedly the top level.
Because Wang Zhen is a eunuch and has no children, the descendants he can rely on are naturally relatives such as nephews and nephews. In comparison, the nephew belongs to the father's bloodline with the same surname and is relatively closer, so Wang Shan is basically regarded as half of Wang Zhen's son.
You must know that this product can no longer be described as arrogant in Beijing, even to the point where the law can no longer stop him.
The estrangement incident between Li Da and Zhao Hongjie was that Wang Shan was preparing to occupy the concubine room of the Jingwei command room who died of illness, and after being stopped by his wife from resisting, he directly beat him and said that the wife killed her husband, but wanted to take the other party to prison.
What's even more outrageous is that Wang Wen, the right capital of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, did not dare to offend Wang Shan, so he simply bent into a trick and asked the wife of the commander to sign and confess.
After pleading guilty, the case was transferred to Dali Temple for sentencing, Shaoqing Xue Xuan and his colleagues He Zusi, Gu Weijing and other officials were upright, and found that it was an unjust case, and asked the inspector who handled the case, Yu Shi, to retry it, and the result was beaten back several times.
Originally, the wrongs were outrageous enough, and Xue Xuan, who was angry and was not willing to retry the case after finding out that there was a problem, directly impeached several handlers of the case.
This move immediately aroused the dissatisfaction of Wang Shan's Jinyi Wei and Wang Wen's Metropolitan Procuratorate. The two of them found Wang Zhen to come forward, reversed black and white, pointed out the deer as a horse, and insisted that the commander's wife and the officials of Dali Temple were all imprisoned and sentenced to death!
When the officials of the DPRK and China saw that everyone was in danger of this incident, this damn was too ruthless, and they didn't let them tell the truth, they even wanted to die.
If you don't stand up to help Xue Xuan speak today, and you will be imprisoned tomorrow, who can stand up and speak up?
Therefore, officials from the DPRK and China visited the prison one after another, and various rescue operations were carried out.
After Ming Yingzong received the chapter, he didn't take it seriously, so he asked the people below to re-investigate and then report it. Originally, when things came to this point, it could be said that the traitors were bullying the king, and Zhu Qizhen was kept in the dark and didn't know the truth.
As a result, after re-investigating, Zhu Qizhen felt that the matter was getting bigger and bigger, so he took up the heart of shielding Wang Zhen and Wang Shan.
Simply the big fifty boards, Jinyiwei will detain and interrogate all the people involved in the case separately. As for the wife and family members of the commander who died of illness, they were sentenced to Ling Chi and hanged, several officials of Dali Temple were demoted three levels in a row, and Xue Xuan, the chief official, was sentenced to death.
Nominally, they claim to have their own punishments, but in fact the severity of the punishments of the two sides is completely unequal. At this time, more officials began to go up, and even military people such as the squire of the military department couldn't stand it, and Ming Yingzong was forced to change Xue Xuan's death sentence to reduce officials for the people.
It can be said that this is a complete unjust case, but under the control of the ministers, even the emperor chose to cover up, and Wang Shan became a veritable "extralegal maniac".
To be honest, Shen Yichen at this time really couldn't afford to offend Wang Shan.
Wang Shan didn't care about Shen Yichen's little shrimp, and took his little brothers and strode towards the Xueling Pavilion.
The old mother's face showed a look of embarrassment and flattery, and Xiao Xiaoyi said: "Wang Gongzi, Miss Liushuang is unwell today, why don't you let her accompany her another day?" ”
"The other girls in our Xueling Pavilion are also stunning, and the prince who serves them is full of satisfaction."
After hearing this, the expression on Wang Shan's face instantly turned cold, and he said with a hint of threat in his tone: "There is such a coincidence? Mother, if it is found that you are the one who deceived me, the taste of prison will not be pleasant. ”
Today is the day of the dragon gate, and Wang Shan is naturally clear about this. He didn't believe that Oiran Qin Liushuang happened to be unwell, and he must have been booked and needed to accompany other guests.
Faced with the threat of prison, the old mother's face turned pale instantly, and large beads of sweat appeared on her forehead.
Because she knows very well that Wang Shan is definitely not just talking, he is really capable of putting people in prison and punishing them. I have an old bone, and if I go in, I probably won't be able to come out alive.
So the old mother gritted her teeth and confessed: "It was He Pingyan He Gongzi who invited the Flowing Frost girl, and he was on his way here." ”
For Xue Ling Pavilion, both sides are characters who can't afford to offend, so just let them fight for it themselves.
He Pingyan? The nephew of the official Shangshu Wang Zhi?
Wang Shan's identity background appeared in Wang Shan's mind, which was also the advantage of Jinyiwei as a spy department.
Theoretically speaking, the official department is located at the head of the six departments, with the title of "heavenly official", and when the power is strong, he can even face the cabinet ministers.
When Beijing officials meet high-ranking officials, they generally bow their hands and rarely kneel. Only when encountering cabinet scholars and officials will choose to kneel down and ask for peace, and the other five books do not have this treatment.
It can be seen that most of the time, in the eyes of other officials, the secretary of the ministry is on an equal footing with the cabinet scholars.
According to common sense, even if Wang Zhen is powerful, there is no need for Wang Shan to offend He Pingyan, who has a minister and a secretary as a backer, because of a prostitute.
However, it is a coincidence that the current servant of the Ministry of Officials, Naiheng, happens to be attached to Wang Zhen and was single-handedly supported by him. If you want to climb one step further, then the official department Shangshu Wang Zhi will inevitably become a stumbling block.
The two sides have an essential conflict of interest, so Wang Shan naturally has no need to sell He Pingyan's face, and said arrogantly: "What kind of hanging thing is He Pingyan, immediately call the Liushuang girl to come out to accompany me, otherwise I will burn your Xueling Pavilion!" ”
"Yes, yes, according to what the prince said."
The old mother hurriedly nodded yes, compared to a literati like He Pingyan, she still has some reason. Wang Shan, this kind of brocade cloth Weiqiu Ba, it is really not a point of truth, and he would rather offend the gentleman than the villain.
Seeing that the old mother had met his requirements, Wang Shan showed a smug look on his face, and then walked into the lobby of Xueling Pavilion with a few people.
"Brother Shen, let's go in too."
Xu Fengyuan made a gesture of please, and after Shen Yichen nodded, the two also walked into the Xue Ling Pavilion.
Compared to the last time I visited, there is not much change here, and it is still very lively. Even as the lifters arrived one after another, the lobby was already overcrowded.
However, in these years, it is easy to do things with money, and there is nothing that cannot be done by "adding money", so Shen Yichen and Xu Fengyuan still booked a private room, which is next door to Wang Shan.
Seeing that Shen Yichen and the others also walked in, Wang Shan showed a contemptuous expression on his face. Just this young man actually wanted to reason with himself just now, he was really tired of being crooked, as long as he said one more word, he would immediately escort him to Jinyiwei Prison, and learn what it means that some people can't afford to offend.
Facing Wang Shan's expression, Shen Yichen didn't care, as if he hadn't seen it. He is not a stunned young man who is very impulsive, and he should choose to be low-key when he should endure it, after all, the future is long.
At this moment, Qin Liushuang, the Beijing Teacher's Oiran, rushed over with lotus steps, and immediately saluted after seeing that it was Wang Shan and said, "The concubine has seen Wang Gongzi." ”
Seeing Qin Liushuang's arrival, Wang Shan's face immediately showed the appearance of a pig brother, and he even simply leaned over and put his hand on the shoulder of the Oiran, and said with a smile: "I haven't seen you for a long time, everyone Qin is getting more and more beautiful, and you can have fun today." ”
A look of disgust flashed in the corner of Qin Liushuang's eyes, but he quickly changed to a professional smile and said, "Of course, the concubine body has to make the prince happy." ”
"Okay, then please come into the house with me."
Wang Shan hugged Qin Liushuang like this, and was about to walk towards the box, but when he passed by Shen Yichen's side, Qin Liushuang bowed slightly and saluted: "I haven't seen you for a long time, how is Shen Gongzi lately?" ”
"Thank you Qin for your concern, it's good here."
Shen Yichen smiled and returned the salute, he actually didn't have much prejudice against the ancient Qinglou women, which is completely different from the modern concept of laughing at the poor and not smiling at prostitutes.
Because one has a choice, and the other has almost no choice.
"Shen Gongzi is happy, and the concubine goes in first."
"Please."
Listening to the conversation between Qin Liushuang and Shen Yichen, Wang Shan's expression was not very good-looking, he really didn't expect this kid to be able to talk to the Jingshi Oiran.
So jealousy came up, he glared at Shen Yichen viciously, and just as he was about to attack, Qin Liushuang pulled and said, "Prince Wang, today Xueling Pavilion has arrived with a batch of wine from the Western Regions, but you have to taste it well." ”
The beauties invited each other to drink wine together, Wang Shan's heart melted instantly, and he immediately nodded with a smile: "Okay, good, just according to what everyone Qin said." ”
After finishing speaking, he didn't care about Shen Yichen anymore, and the group walked into the box.
"Phew, let's see how long you can run rampant!"
Xu Fengyuan spat with an angry face, this thing is nothing more than an uncle who is a eunuch in power, and he doesn't know what to be proud of.
This time, it was Shen Yichen who calmed down, he just smiled, patted Xu Fengyuan's shoulder, and the two also entered the box.
Because the things he talked about were relatively secretive, Shen Yichen did not ask the singer to dance as a companion, and Xu Fengyuan continued to talk about Ye Zongliu and other Fujian miners.
This time, the trade with the Japanese slaves tasted the sweetness, and they planned to expand the scale next, but the risks that would come with it would also increase. After all, it is not yet the era of Longqing switch, overseas smuggling is a serious crime, and once it is detected by the government, it will face the encirclement and suppression of the sailors.
In addition, the treacherous credit of the Japanese slaves is low, and it is difficult to guarantee that they will not give birth to the idea of "black eating black", and the Fujian miners have no power at sea, which is equivalent to being beaten and unable to fight back.
Listening to Xu Fengyuan's description, Shen Yichen's face was embarrassed, and what he said was indeed a more difficult problem.
If you want to ensure the benefits of overseas trade, you rely on nothing more than the strength of your ships and guns, and if you want to get the submission of the Japanese slaves, you have to put the blade of your sword against their necks.
Now it has only been more than ten years since Zheng He's last trip to the West in the fifth year of Xuande (1430). The drawings of the treasure ships are still preserved in the archives, and the craftsmen who made the ships are still alive, so it is not difficult to replicate the pomp and circumstance of the Western Ocean.
The difficulty lies in how to convince the Manchu civil and military officials and the emperor.
You must know that Zheng He's voyage to the West is more about the display of national strength and political intentions, and maintaining a huge fleet requires great financial support and consumption, which is purely a loss-making business.
If you want to change the concept of the situation, you must first make money, put aside all Confucian benevolence, righteousness and morality, and carry out the bloody primitive accumulation of capitalism. This is something that can only be forcibly promoted by a person of high authority, and he is far from reaching this level at present.
There is no way to achieve the transformation of the upper level, and it is not very reliable to start from the bottom and build ships privately.
The shipbuilding industry is not as secretive as mining in the deep mountains and old forests, and it must have a fixed place and a good port, as well as enough raw materials and craftsmen. Such a fanfare, if there is no protective umbrella on it, I am afraid it will be too long.
"For the time being, bear with it, trade with the Japanese slaves in small batches and many times, don't be afraid of trouble."
After thinking about it again and again, Shen Yichen couldn't think of a good solution, so he could only minimize the trade risk on the existing basis.
"I understand below."
Xu Fengyuan nodded solemnly, he also knew that this matter was too difficult, and if he wanted to solve the problem fundamentally, he could only wait for Shen Yichen to take power above the court.
Just when Shen Yichen and Xu Fengyuan were talking, the noisy voices of Wang Shan and others came from time to time in the box next door. After all, ancient buildings are mainly wooden structures, but they do not have thick reinforced concrete materials like later generations, and the sound insulation effect is really poor.
At this moment, there was a sound of sliding doors from Wang Shan's box, and at the same time, the music of the singer's dancing skills also paused.
"Damn, who dares to post my uncle's incriminating evidence on the street so boldly, is he impatient!"
Wang Shan roared angrily, and even Shen Yichen in the box next door heard it clearly.
At the same time, Shen Yichen also heard an extremely familiar voice and replied: "My lord, after investigation, the lower officials found that it was most likely done by Wang Yong, the jailer of the Jinyi Guard. Since Liu Qiu's incident, Wang Yong has been in a state of madness from time to time, saying that someone wants to pay for his life. ”
After Liu Qiu's tragic dismemberment and death in history, there are many anecdotal allusions, the most famous of which is that the son of the mastermind Jin Yiwei commanded Ma Shun, who was crazy and thought that Liu Qiu grabbed his father's hair and fists and feet to ask for his life.
There are also several Jinyi Wei Xiaoxiao who were executed, who also died for various reasons. As for whether the reason for this death was caused by the Yin Spirit, or whether he was killed and killed, it is unknown.
Wang Yong is also one of the parties to the edict, and in the orthodox ten years of history, he counted Wang Zhen's crimes and revealed them in a book. Later, he personally went to Wang Shan's mansion to expose his crimes, but was arrested and imprisoned on the spot.
The Criminal Department sentenced him to the crime of beheading the public with false words, and he was beheaded! Ming Yingzong Zhu Qizhen still felt that it was not enough to breathe this evil breath, and he was sentenced to a more severe sentence, and there was no need to repeat it.
"Wang Yong, a madman, often sees his crazy nonsense, and the master doesn't take it seriously. Since he wants to find death, then I will fulfill his wish! ”
"You inform Wang Yong to come to my mansion tomorrow to meet him, and by the way, he also copied his house to see if there is any trick left."
Wang Shan is still a little bit brainy, and he understands that a jailer like Wang Yong has been in the edict for many years, and he may have preserved the evidence of the crime that is unfavorable to himself and his uncle.
Although with the current favor of Ming Yingzong for Wang Zhen, even if there is a high probability of incriminating evidence, it will not affect it in the slightest, but it is better to prevent trouble before it happens, and this kind of thing is just a matter of hand.
"The subordinate obeys!"
Another sound of sliding the door sounded, and it was obvious that the Jinyi guard who had received the order had already gone out to carry out Wang Shan's order.
"Brother Xu, there is still something to do today, why don't you talk about it later?"
Shen Yichen also got up in a hurry, ready to chase out the door.
"Huh? This hasn't called a geisha to accompany the wine, is Brother Shen going to leave so soon? ”
Xu Fengyuan was a little unsure why, how long had he been sitting down, and he hadn't officially opened yet, so it was too fast.
"Next time, next time!"
After a hasty reply, Shen Yichen pushed the door and ran briskly to catch up with the brocade guard in front.
"Zhao Hongjie!"
Hearing the familiar shouting sound from behind, Zhao Hongjie stopped, turned his head and saw Shen Yichen standing behind him, with a touch of joy on his face that could not be concealed.
"Yichen, why are you here?"
"Talk to someone about something."
"Today is the day to try out the dragon gate, how did you do in the test?"
"It's going well."
After Shen Yichen exchanged a few words, he ran to the subject and asked, "Hongjie, do you have time now, I have something I want to talk to you about." ”
I saw Zhao Hongjie showing an embarrassed look on his face, shook his head and said, "I have official business now, do you want to make an appointment to meet next time?" ”
"Is it about Wang Yong, the jailer of the Jinyi Guard?"
"How did you find out?"
Zhao Hongjie's face was full of shock, he had just received the order, and Shen Yichen knew it?
"I'm next door to Wang Shan, and you've heard the conversation."
"That's right, I do have to go to Wang Yong's house to run errands."
"If you find incriminating evidence about Wang Zhen and Wang Shan, can you give me a copy of it first?"
For Zhao Hongjie, Shen Yichen didn't have so many twists and turns, and at the same time, he never thought that the other party had joined forces with the eunuch henchmen and became an accomplice of the eagle dog.
So what is his goal, Shen Yichen said it directly, he is ready to keep a copy of the incriminating evidence about Wang Zhen and Wang Shan, which may come in handy at a critical moment.
It's just that Zhao Hongjie's next performance was a little unexpected by Shen Yichen, he didn't agree directly, but stared at himself and was silent for a long time.
"Yi Chen, as a brother, I advise you not to be an enemy of the prince, even if you get the evidence of the crime, you won't be able to bring him down, you will only get into trouble."
"I understand, but the eldest husband has something to do and something to do, even if he knows that the road ahead is dangerous, how can he stagnate?"
The miners' uprising in the southeast during the orthodox period of the Ming Dynasty has been temporarily suppressed today through Xu Fengyuan's narration.
The battle of Luchuan in the southwest was too far away, and Shen Yichen was powerless for the time being, and the result of this battle was to win. So what he can do now is to lay out the changes of the civil fort in the orthodox fourteen years early.
To be honest, whether these so-called "criminal evidence" can have an impact on Wang Zhen, Shen Yichen has no bottom in his heart.
But at least you can have more capital in your hands to see if you can let your little butterfly fanning the wings of history again!
