Li Yancai, in the final analysis, is still in Huguang and Fengjiang, although the officials are not small, they are nothing in Beijing, but why is Zhang Cheng so applauded?

It is because of this Li Yan that Wu Kuan's in-laws are in-laws.

The change of Zuo Shunmen caused many people who participated at that time to lose their official status and fame, and even the people in their families were also implicated.

But it was this Wu Kuan who was exempted by the imperial court after his death,

If he can be exempted, it means that the emperor still has feelings for him, and at this time, he wants to promote Li Yancai's official, and the emperor has no reason to refuse, and Wu Kuan has been dead for less than two months.

And the prince himself can't say anything that he doesn't like Wu Kuan,

After all, people have just died, why are you like this, don't you seem to be narrow-minded?

Moreover, it is reasonable for the right political envoy to be promoted to the political envoy, of course, the prince can also say that Li Yancai can be appointed to other positions, but so many ministers in the court are all smart people.

Wu Kuan is at odds with you, so you won't let his in-laws go to Zhejiang.

Doesn't it just mean that you have something to do in Zhejiang?

It was all these subtle relationships that made Zhang Cheng shout out a 'wonderful, word.'

Liu Daxia was not so excited, he was thinking about the style of His Royal Highness the Prince,

So what style is the East Palace?

I like to take advantage of the righteousness, and I feel that I have planned enough, so I will have some confidence.

On these two points, the crown prince should not refuse Li Yancai's appointment.

Emperor Hongzhi likes to look at the attitude of the East Palace in this kind of tangled matter, as long as the East Palace does not shake his head, this matter is basically done.

"So be it."

Liu Daxia decided to do so.

On the third day of the ninth month of the seventeenth year of Hongzhi.

Wang Hua boarded the boat at Jingshi Wharf and prepared to go straight to Hangzhou. At this time, the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal was a passage for transportation, and passenger ships were also open.

When he arrived in Zhejiang, he learned that the imperial court had also sent Li Yancai, the political envoy of Hubei's Zuobu, to serve as the political envoy of Zhejiang.

This person is well sent, even he has to admit that the princes of the court and the central government are really smart people.

And as soon as he arrived,

All the people who came to watch the yamen went back to report it.

Even Mei Kejia is quite concerned about this.

September in Hangzhou is another autumn day, and this season adds a bit of solemn atmosphere to the city of Hangzhou.

Wei Bin ran quickly to the door of the Mei Mansion,

This made Mei Kejia smile imperceptibly,

I still remember that he was in a hurry to worship Wei Bin's door, and now, everything has changed again.

It's really like a play.

"Hey, you can really pretend to be in trouble, that Huzhou prefect Xu Ruoqin has arrived in the Forbidden City, and you still have tea here?!"

As soon as Wei Bin arrived at Meifu, he saw that Mei Kejia was not in a hurry, and the small rocking chair was swaying while drinking tea, while listening to the famous prostitutes in Hangzhou playing music for him, which was very comfortable.

He can't, his heart is already in a hurry.

"Grandpa Wei? Why are you here?" This Mei Kejia is not a well-known good man for ten miles, he has had countless hardships and dangers along the way, and he has seen too many sinister people's hearts, and he can survive, fierce, cunning, and that is indispensable, so he deliberately pretended not to see Wei Bin.

I saw it at this time, and I looked surprised again. ….

Wei Bin may know, but he can't help it.

"What's going on, Grandpa Wei?"

Wei Bin sweated when he was so anxious that it was cool in autumn, "The imperial court has come to the decree and sent Wang Hua to patrol Zhejiang. You should know about this, right?"

"Yes."

"And you're still drinking tea here?! That Wang Hua is from Zhan Shifu!"

Mei Kejia tilted his head and smiled, "I don't understand this, your father-in-law Wei is the prince's person, and the new governor of Zhejiang is also the prince's person, they are all the prince's people, he came with your help, and he dares to dismantle the stage for you, what are you anxious about?"

"Ouch, I said you really don't understand, or

Pretend not to understand. Our family has been in Hangzhou for so many years, why didn't His Royal Highness send people sooner or later, but at this time? This must be the letter that made His Highness feel that our family's errand was not done properly!"

The fact that the eunuch who is usually high up in the town can talk to this extent shows that he is indeed panicked.

But his panic could not win Mei Kejia's sympathy.

Everyone has their own interests to consider. Advance or retreat, take one's own interests as the fundamental point.

So is Mecojia.

So what are his interests?

It is to continue the trade at sea, get the prince's silver out, and then give himself the opportunity to return to Beijing and reunite with his family.

What is the use of this Wei Bin for him?

Useless.

The combination of government and business, the combination of government and business, Wei Bin is the official who combines with him.

In fact, in essence, it is not Wei Bin, but the crown prince.

Whoever the prince puts in Zhejiang, he will combine with whoever is official and business.

In a sense, the current Wei Bin has lost its value to him.

But you can't just push him out,

After all, Wei Bin knows many things about him, and he is also a close attendant by the prince's side, as long as he doesn't die, do you know that if he cries in front of the prince, will the prince spare him?

After all, these are people who grew up with the crown prince.

So in fact, Mei Kejia has already thought it through,

If Wei Bin is still valuable at this time, then the greatest value is to shut up.

And he Mei Kejia doesn't have the strength to shut up Wei Bin, and the only one who has this power is the prince.

「…… So Gonggong Wei thinks that His Royal Highness has trusted the letter from Xu Ruoqin, the prefect of Huzhou?"

Ask these words,

Wei Bin himself shook his head,

Jingshi and Hangzhou are thousands of miles apart, how could he know?

"Boss Mei, what do you think?"

Mei Kejia: "......"

Pig teammates.

"Let's put it this way, Grandpa Wei." Mei Kejia was very calm, and he had the leisure to pour tea for Wei Bin, "Although Zai Xia is a businessman, he has also secretly read some books, so I know that there is a saying called the enemy to be lenient, and the book is not very good, and the metaphor is not very appropriate, because there are no enemies in the Jingshi, but the meaning is just that, that is, things should be planned from the worst possible." So let's suppose, what if Your Highness believes?"

Mei Kejia tilted his head slightly and took a sip of tea, while the afterglow of his gaze swept over Wei Bin.

Wei Bin held the tea in his hand, looking at the tea leaves that were screwed into the bottom of the cup in a daze.

"What if...... If Your Highness believes...... Then our family can only tie our hands and go to His Highness to ask for sin!" ….

"Please, don't be in a hurry. The key is whether you can survive after pleading."

This made Wei Bin feel a glimmer of hope in his heart, "Boss Mei thinks that even in the worst case, our family can survive."

"Of course you can survive." Mei Kejia tried his best to comfort, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, is the only heir of His Majesty, and he is also the future emperor of the Ming Dynasty, the wealth of the world is in his hands, and the world is also his people, isn't it different for the Son of Heaven to have a little more in your hands?"

"Besides, the relationship between Gonggong Wei and His Royal Highness is not ordinary, that is, he made a mistake, that is, he is greedy for money, no matter how loyal he is to His Highness, as long as he is loyal, and then sincerely admits his mistakes, why would His Highness kill you? Kill you, won't Your Highness have one less loyal slave?"

This exposition progressed layer by layer, but Wei Bin listened to it, "Yes! As long as I am faithful, even if I make a mistake, that is, I will receive a punishment, Your Highness will not take my life."

With that, Mei Kejia began to move on to the next rhythm.

He sighed, "Grandpa Wei, like you and me...... Although we are all members of His Royal Highness, and we all do things for His Highness, we are different from those ministers, who can look at the mountain high from this mountain, and once the son of heaven and a courtier, but we are like the water of the mountain stream, which is easy to rise compared to the literati, but it is also easy to retreat, once it flows

When you enter the river, you will never be able to go back to the mountains."

"How do you think it doesn't flow into the river?" Wei Bin then asked.

"In the time of His Royal Highness, there must have been no Duke Wei, so Aunt Xia said it in vain, and Grandpa Gu listened to it. Father-in-law's question, I thought the answer was just a sentence," Speaking of this, Mei Kejia moved closer, "Don't spoil Your Highness's business."

"That's nature, our family naturally doesn't dare!"

Mei Kejia wanted to laugh when he said this,

Don't dare, some of this today is because of you.

"Then, let me ask," Mei Kejia smashed his mouth, "Does my father-in-law know what is the major event of His Highness in Zhejiang?"

"It's Yin......" Originally, Wei Bin wanted to blurt out, because he knew,

But he can't go on halfway through his talk, why?

for this answer is silver.

But he Wei Bin took the silver.

Mei Kejia lowered his eyebrows, that means, you just know it yourself.

"It's over! Finished! In this way, our family still has no way to live!"

Wei Bin is in his fifties, and tears and snot are about to flow down when he speaks.

"Father-in-law, that's not what I mean." Mei Kejia raised her voice a little, "Even if you are guilty, you can also atone for your sins!"

Wei Bin stopped crying and sniffed, "Okay, you say, what chance is there to atone for your sins, and find more silver for Your Highness?"

"Nope." Mei Kejia said his final intention, "At this time, my father-in-law wants to help His Highness carry this pot on his back. This is more useful than silver."

"Behind the pot?"

"Yes. The people of Zhejiang know that I, Mei Kejia, am saving money for His Royal Highness, but no one has evidence, since there is no evidence, no one dares to talk nonsense about the matter of the crown prince, they just infer that my silver is given to you, and your silver will naturally be given to His Highness. From Zhejiang to Beijing, they all want to give His Highness the title of 'competing with the people for profit, so that you have to withdraw, as soon as you withdraw, I will have to withdraw, and as soon as I withdraw, the merchants of Zhejiang and Fujian will all celebrate with their crowns." ….

"Only by helping Your Highness can Your Highness remember your kindness, and it is useful to admit your mistakes at this time, otherwise you will only admit your mistakes...... Does the Guild forgive such people? This is one thing, and the second is that my father-in-law wants to keep me."

Wei Bin's eyes were full of big question marks, "Why is this?"

"Because it's down there." Mei Kejia waved his hand, "It is also part of His Highness's major affairs. His Royal Highness cares most about the silver in Zhejiang, where the silver is, then the silver is there; If the silver is not there, the silver will not be there, and if the silver is not there, if the great affairs of His Highness are ruined, the father-in-law will not be able to live."

"We get it." Wei Bin thought about it again and again, but he didn't think there was anything wrong with it, the logic was very smooth.

In fact, ordinary people can't tell the difference, because whether it is a bad thing for His Highness, or to explain Mei Kejia, the prince will indeed not bypass him.

So basically, I believe it.

But after Wei Bin left the Mei Mansion, Mei Kejia squinted his eyes and shook his head disdainfully.

In the corner, Fu Zheng walked out and asked, "In this way, Wei Bin still has a way to live?"

"There's a way to live with a fart. If he wants to live, Wang Hua, the governor of Zhejiang, will not come." Mei Kejia straightened his sleeves and said slowly, "Our Royal Highness the Crown Prince is the master of the reckoning, you are good to him, he is better to you, you are bad to him, he is even worse to you. Wei Bin has been in the East Palace for many years, it's not that he can't figure out His Highness's character, but once he was in power, he couldn't bear it, and he took His Highness's silver with his hands, and he took it with a small head anyway. But...... He saved me with this outstretched hand."

"Why is that?"

Mei Kejia explained: "Master, I am doing business in Zhejiang, and I have made so much money, there must be many enemies, and there are many people, and you also inquire, and he will also inquire, and I will be secretive, and after a few years, I will eventually ask someone to find out that I am doing things for the palace." Therefore, the unstable situation in Zhejiang like today will definitely appear, since it will definitely appear, and it can't be solved, so I can only find someone to take the blame, otherwise wouldn't Your Highness blame me for doing things unfavorably?"

In a word, he is not bad for the temple

If His Highness's affairs are bad, then it must also look like someone else's bad, what does it have to do with me?

Therefore, when he gave Wei Bin a bribe, it was intentional.

If someone makes a mistake and the situation is bad, it is naturally the problem of the person who made the mistake.

This is the brain you need to live.
