Ma Shiying was helpless, he didn't expect Zhang Gui to threaten the generals of the Ming Dynasty with the words "If you don't crown him king, he will run further".

Ma Shiying had to follow Zhang Gui's instructions to write Zhang Gui's impeachment of Liu Tingyuan, as well as the request and the county king Xianjue Shizhen Lushun.

Many bureaucrats in the Ming Dynasty really hoped to be able to get lucky by taking the way of connections.

After all, if you rely on the evaluation of qualifications, ability and merit, and the degree of integrity to get the opportunity for promotion, the time cost will be too high, and it will also make it difficult for many egoists who only want power and do not want to fulfill their responsibilities and incompetent officials with mediocre ability but willing to make money for themselves to be promoted to high positions through normal channels.

And in the bureaucracy, such bastards are in the majority.

It can't be helped.

Human nature just prefers to take shortcuts.

As Ma Shiying said, no matter what, there are still many villains in the world.

In addition, Confucian culture has been influenced for thousands of years, and the idea of not paying attention to rules and paying more attention to human feelings, and even thinking that kissing and hiding is a commendable behavior has long been ingrained and difficult to change for a while.

It also makes many people talk about benevolence, righteousness, etiquette, wisdom and faith, but their stomachs are full of how to go to the side.

Therefore, the bureaucracy of the Ming Dynasty actually needed a dictator.

In this way, they only need to go to great lengths to please this person who can decide everything in the world, and then they can get promoted by flattering and flattering this person, and then obtain more benefits that are not worthy of their talents, and at the same time, they can cover up their incompetence.

But now His Majesty the Emperor, who really dominates everything in the world, and can be flattered by them, does not live in the depths and does not give them the opportunity to flatter in order to be lucky.

and can only choose to replace Zhang Gui, who can dominate everything in the world and just makes great contributions.

Therefore, the bureaucrats of the Ming Dynasty actually need Zhang Gui very much now.

It's like the Ming bureaucrats in history needed Wei Zhongxian very much.

It is precisely because of this that Liu Tingyuan, as one of the bureaucrats who wanted to make progress with shortcuts, took the initiative to build a shrine for Zhang Gui.

But Zhang Gui didn't appreciate it in the end.

He has studied history and knows that the political rules of this world are not the only way to play, so he chose to refuse, refusing to be dragged into the water by the bureaucrats, but choosing to retreat as advance, on the one hand, he was ready to run, and on the other hand, he forced the apocalypse who wanted to push to the front to be the second Yan Song to compromise with him.

Zhang Gui didn't plan to really work for the old Zhu family for a lifetime, and then he would be unloaded and killed by the people of the old Zhu family.

Zhang Gui also knows very well that in the face of power struggle, any kinship is unreliable.

Therefore, Zhang Gui simply went south and went to Lushun now.

There is his absolute confidant, Huang Binqing, an official of the West Factory, who is stationed there, and most of the backbone of the water division are people from his family, so he can go to other places at any time.

It can be said that as long as Zhang Gui arrives in Lushun, he can be a big pirate of the same scale as Zheng Zhilong at any time.

This is also where Zhang Gui differs from the traditional ministers in Chinese history.

In Chinese history, the traditional ministers were limited by the times, and only had the consciousness of the mainland, thinking that the world was in this part of China, and other places were wild places.

But Zhang Gui, as a traverser, has a sense of the ocean, knowing that in addition to the land, there is also the sea that can be used as a foothold for his rich life.

However, it is precisely because of this that when the news came out that Zhang Gui did not return to the court immediately after the victory but went to Lushun, it immediately caused an uproar.

People in this era don't understand, don't understand why Uncle Zhang Guo went to the beach when he was most proud, and didn't come to Beijing to accept the congratulations of the ministers and enjoy great glory.

The first one who didn't understand was Ma Shiying.

And the second one who didn't understand was Liu Tingyuan.

Liu Tingyuan really didn't expect that he would be dismissed and questioned for giving his uncle Zhang Gui a shrine.

Zhang Gui has the right to cut first and then play.

Therefore, without waiting for Zhang Gui's impeachment of Liu Tingyuan to be sent to Beijing to be criticized, Jinyiwei in Liaodong had already obtained Zhang Gui's order and controlled Liu Tingyuan.

"I want to see the Master! I want to see the Master! ”

Liu Tingyuan had to shout when he was arrested by Jinyi Wei again, he really wanted to ask Zhang Gui, why didn't he appreciate it!

……

"Ridiculous! The reward is determined by the imperial court, how can he, Uncle Zhang Guo, mention the reward by himself, is this blackmailing the imperial court? ! ”

Liu Hongxun, who was newly added to the cabinet, also did not understand at this time, so he complained in the cabinet.

Cheng Jiming, who was also newly added to the cabinet, also sneered: "This is not blackmailing the imperial court, this is contempt for the imperial court!" ”

"Just wait for him to return to Beijing with Uncle Zhang Guo, the Duke of Suiguo, victorious, and then make a great gift to the prisoners, and tell the first emperor's mausoleum and Taimiao. As a result, this Taishi only sent Sun Butang and Zhou Zong Li to lead the army back to Beijing, but he led his own soldiers to Lushun to recuperate, and also set a reward for his meritorious service this time, and wanted to be crowned king. ”

"How can the famous weapons of the imperial court be broken! The king with a different surname is only available for the founding of the country, and the key is to posthumously seal after death, how can there be a non-clan who will be crowned king! ”

"What the two elders said is very true, the court etiquette system cannot be broken! And even if you want to be crowned king, you should return to Beijing and then ask for the title, how can you invite the reward before returning to Beijing, there is a great act of self-respect. ”

Qian Xiangkun, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, also followed.

"If the first ticket is not allowed, the decree of returning to Beijing as soon as possible, show it to Yuansuke."

Liu Hongxun said at this time.

The new first assistant Wen Tiren went to the Planning Department after getting Liu Hongxun's recital and the vote, found Wei Zhongxian, and said to Wei Zhongxian: "Please also ask the nine thousand years old to give it to Your Majesty according to this vote." ”

Wei Zhongxian glanced at the ticket: "Not allowed?" ”

Wei Zhongxian asked Wen Tiren as he spoke: "If Your Majesty also agrees, will it cause Uncle Guo to be dissatisfied?" ”

"I don't know if Uncle Guo is deliberately playing sex, so it's better not to agree to try it first. And in any case, if he doesn't return to Beijing now, he will disrupt the big guy's arrangement. ”

"It was originally a big victory, waiting for his meritorious uncle to return to Beijing, so that the whole world could celebrate, but he didn't come to Beijing, so how could the powerful bureaucrats in the capital prepare the generous gifts, and where to say the flattery prepared by the carload?"

"In addition, he also refused to be built a shrine, which made many officials unable to enrich themselves in this way of flattering him, what should I do?"

"Could it be that you really want to invite Your Majesty out, and then say that this great achievement is the work of Your Majesty's planning? But the key is that the only one who can invite His Majesty is the uncle of another country! ”

Wen Tiren said.

Wei Zhongxian nodded: "Yes!" The results of the examination are about to begin, and all the officials in the world are waiting for him, the uncle of the country, to enter Beijing to give everyone peace of mind, but the uncle of the country refuses to appear, which really catches the officials of the world off guard. ”

As he spoke, Wei Zhongxian said, "Let's go and hand over the ticket to the emperor." ”

"Who let you in! Don't bother me! Didn't I say a long time ago that Zhang Qing couldn't enter at will?! ”

As soon as Wei Zhongxian entered the apocalypse's laboratory, he was blasted out by the apocalypse.

Wei Zhongxian had to hurriedly say: "The emperor is angry! The slave didn't dare to come in, but Uncle Guo's performance was overlooked, and the cabinet had already voted, just waiting for you to approve it. ”

"Zhang Qing's recital?"

After hearing this, Tianqi took Song Shu over, and after looking at it, he laughed: "It's him!" ”

Wei Zhongxian therefore asked: "Emperor, what about the votes of this cabinet?" ”

"Batch red! Let him go back to Beijing first. ”
