Chapter 160: An Era Is Over (The Thief Written in the Second Half of This Chapter Is Wonderful!) 7,000 Words)

Liu Wentai is a not very clever conspirator.

Chang Feng and Yang Yiqing made a visit and found that "The Biography of Wang Tianguan" was all over the bookshops and bookstalls in the capital.

It's easier to check.

When printing books in the Ming Dynasty, the name of the book responsible for printing must be written on the book cover. The book hall is equivalent to the publishing house of later generations.

Although "The Biography of Wang Tianguan" is written as "Shaanxi, Gansu and Chang'an Hall Seal". Chang Feng believes that such a large-scale printing must be in the local area of Beizhili.

Chang Feng interrogated several bookstore managers with Yang Yiqing, and they all confessed that this batch of books was printed and sent by Rixin Hall, a famous bookstore in the capital.

The two came to Shunto touch the melon, pretended to be literati who planned to publish a book, and came to the Rixin Hall.

In the Rixin Hall, a gentleman sitting on the desk was talking to a wealthy businessman. Chang Feng and Yang Yiqing were behind the rich businessman.

The gentleman gushed endlessly: "As long as you pay one hundred taels of silver, you can put your poems into Zizi and pass them on to future generations." You've become a well-known literati! ”

The purchasing power of one hundred taels of silver in the Hongzhi Dynasty was roughly equal to one hundred thousand yuan in later generations.

Most of the books in later generations were published at their own expense, and the cost was almost 100,000 yuan, and the book number was given 3,000 hardcover printing.

As long as you are willing to pay for it, even elementary school students' essays can still be published in a book.

If you don't want to pay, I'm sorry, even if you have Mo and Yu talents, no one will publish it for you.

For hundreds of years, the cost of publishing a book is about the same. It's really a conscience!

Chang Feng frowned when he heard this. He has always believed that only articles written by talented people can be collected and published.

I never thought that it would only cost a hundred taels of silver to pay Zizi.

The rich merchant smiled all over his face: "One hundred taels of silver, it is really cost-effective to buy the name of a literati!" ”

After speaking, the rich merchant took out a silver ticket of one hundred taels from his sleeve: "When will the book be printed?" ”

The gentleman replied, "You have to wait four months." If you rush it, you will pay an additional 100 taels. It can be engraved in a month. ”

The rich merchant smiled: "I'm not in a hurry. There is no need to pay so much money. I came to pick up the book after those four months. ”

Mr. Sitting on the Desk sent the rich merchant away. asked Chang Feng and Yang Yiqing: "Do the two gentlemen also want to publish a book?" ”

Chang Feng gave Yang Yiqing a look.

Yang Yiqing directly illuminated the waist card of the Criminal Department: "The Criminal Department." ”

The gentleman was shocked: "Criminal Department? ”

Although the criminal department's case-handling methods are not as ruthless as Jinyiwei, for the common people, they are also unlucky.

Yang Yiqing said: "Go, call your host out!" ”

Not long after, Liu Jinwen, the owner of Rixin Hall, came to Chang Feng and Yang Yiqing.

In the capital, which is full of big people, Liu Jinwen is just an inconspicuous little person.

But this man has a pivotal place in the history of publishing. He almost single-handedly established a commercial publishing model in Daming.

Liu Jinwen has always been a person who has seen the world. usually publishes books for civil officials in the capital, and has dealt with many high-ranking officials.

He bowed his hand to Chang Feng and Yang Yiqing, and said without humility or arrogance: "What are the two adults doing to find the little one?" ”

Chang Feng directly put the "Biography of Wang Tianguan" on the table: "This book is from the library, right?" ”

Liu Jinwen picked it up and looked at it: "We came out." ”

Chang Feng asked, "When did it come out?" Why is the book cover printed with Shaanxi and Gansu Chang'an Hall, but not the Beijing Rixin Hall? ”

Liu Jinwen replied: "That's right. A month ago, a man approached our Rixin Church. He said that he would issue 2,000 taels of silver and urgently print 5,000 copies of "The Biography of Wang Tianguan". ”

"He asked for the book cover to be printed with 'Shaanxi-Gansu Chang'an Hall'. The local study hall is not strong enough, and it is common for us to ask the Rixin Hall to print books. So I agreed. ”

Chang Feng hurriedly asked, "Who is the person looking for you to print the book?" ”

Liu Jinwen replied: "It's a distant cousin of mine. ”

Chang Feng's eyes lit up when he heard this: "Distant cousin, also surnamed Liu, right?" What is it called? ”

Liu Jinwen replied truthfully: "Liu Wentai." He is currently serving as a judge at the Pacific Hospital. ”

Chang Feng never expected it. The investigation of this case was effortless.

What he didn't expect was that the aftermath of this matter was much more difficult than the investigation process!

He instructed Liu Jinwen: "Look at this "Biography of Wang Tianguan", count how many great rebellious words there are! ”

After Liu Jinwen looked at it carefully, he shouted: "Liu Wentai harmed me!" When he came to me, he was very happy to give me money, and he was a distant cousin. I didn't pay attention to the content, so I asked the people below to hurry up and print. ”

Yang Yiqing instructed him: "Come with us to the Punishment Department." ”

entered the Criminal Department, but Yang Yiqing did not punish Liu Jinwen. Liu Jinwen is a regular businessman, confessed, and drew a charge on the confession.

Chang Feng read the confession and breathed a sigh of relief: "Liu Wentai is guilty of three crimes in impeaching Wang Butang. Only the first article has empirical evidence for slandering the emperor. ”

"With this confession in hand, it is enough to wash away the grievances of Wang Butang."

Yang Yiqing said: "I didn't expect this Liu Wentai to be so stupid." I don't know how to hide it. ”

Chang Feng echoed: "That's right. Liu Wentai is a stupid villain. Let's go, I'll lead you into the palace! ”

Yang Yiqing had an excited expression on his face after hearing this: "Face Jun? Can I change into court clothes and Liang Guan? ”

Yang Yiqing has been an official for 19 years and has never had the opportunity to meet the monarch alone.

Noodle Jun is commonplace for Changfeng. For Yang Yiqing, it is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

Chang Feng said: "Okay, I'll wait for Yang to do it." ”

The most formal attire of the Ming officials was to wear court clothes and wear a beam crown on their heads.

Liang Guan is quite exquisite, wearing eight beams; Hou, Bo, Horse, and Yipin official Dai Qiliang; The second-rank official wears six beams. Descending order.

Yang Yiqing is a positive five-grade and wears a three-beam crown.

Yang Yi cleaned his face, changed into court clothes and three liang crowns, cleaned up, and came to Chang Feng: "Chang Zhen Fu took me into the palace." ”

Chang Feng looked at Yang Yiqing. smiled secretly in his heart: Brother Yang changed into court clothes and Liang Guan, which is still more ugly than Huzi.

It is said that people rely on clothes and horses rely on saddles, but this does not work for Brother Yang.

The two entered the palace and came to the main hall of the Qianqing Palace.

They knelt before Emperor Hongzhi.

Emperor Hongzhi saw Yang Yiqing for the first time. He ordered: "Yang Yiqing, raise your head." ”

It didn't matter if Yang Yiqing raised his head, he was so frightened that Emperor Hongzhi shrank his neck.

Emperor Hongzhi realized that he was rude in front of his courtiers, so he could only make up for it from words: "Ah, Yang Qing is really a strange person." ”

It deserves to be a great tomorrow. Emotional intelligence is high.

Low EQ: Looks worse than a dog.

High EQ: Strange people are out of phase.

Yang Yiqing said: "Thank you for the emperor's praise." ”

Chang Fengqiang on the side couldn't help laughing: Where is the emperor praising you.

In this investigation and handling of the impeachment case, Yang Yiqing is the person in charge. Chang Feng only nominally followed him to observe politics.

Yang Yiqing reported the ins and outs of the case.

Emperor Hongzhi nodded after hearing this: "Sure enough, it was a false accusation." I'll just say, Lao Wang Shu won't do such a foolish thing. ”

"Yang Yiqing, your criminal department immediately arrests Liu Wentai. Interrogated with the Metropolitan Procuratorate and Dali Temple, and convicted of the crime. ”

Yang Yiqing kowtowed: "The minister obeys the order." ”

Emperor Hongzhi was a little curious: "Yang Yiqing, what year are you a Jinshi?" ”

Yang Yiqing replied: "The minister is the ninety-fifth place in the top three in the eight-year palace examination of Chenghua, and he was born as a jinshi. ”

The difference between Emperor Hongzhi: "Nineteen years as an official, or just Langzhong?" ”

Yang Yiqing smiled bitterly: "Your Majesty." Ministers don't grow. ”

Chang Feng said good things for Yang Yiqing: "Your Majesty." During the palace examination that year, after the emperor read the article, he gave Yang Lang the first and second ranks. ”

Later, the palace replied, because Yang Langzhong was a strange person. The emperor set him at the top ninety-five. ”

Emperor Hongzhi knew in his heart: it turned out that it was because of his ugly appearance that caused the imperial examination and his career to be unsmooth.

Emperor Hongzhi intended to test Yang Yiqing. Asked: "You are in charge of the criminal department of Beizhili. What do you think is the merit and disadvantage of Beizhili's criminal name? ”

Yang Yiqing is concise, well-organized, and fluent. In just a few moments, all the criminal status of Beizhili was introduced to Emperor Hongzhi.

Emperor Hongzhi was extremely satisfied: "Qing Zhicai is more than one Zhengwupinlang. You go down first. ”

Yang Yiqing left the main hall.

Emperor Hongzhi said to Chang Feng: "This case is closed. You can end your time in the Criminal Department. Liu Wentai is outrageously stupid, and it is overkill for you to check. ”

Chang Feng said: "The emperor has a reputation. ”

Emperor Hongzhi told him again: "There is something I want to remind you. In the future, Jin Yiwei should treat civil officials with respect at least on the surface. Don't scold. ”

"Some people say that I rule the world as a domestic slave and regard civil officials as slaves of slaves."

Chang Feng bowed his hand: "Keep in mind the hadith." ”

Liu Wentai was arrested. The three law divisions interrogated, and he did not confess to Qiu Jun, the mastermind behind the scenes. He knew in his heart that if he didn't confess Qiu Ge Lao, he still had a glimmer of life.

If he confessed to Qiu Ge Lao, he would have died and had no life.

This is also the result that Emperor Hongzhi wanted. He wanted to keep Qiu Jun, a master of science, in the cabinet to appease the world's scholars and show the emperor's attitude of respecting the learning of the sages.

When the emperor is like this, famous and virtuous ministers must be used, traitorous ministers must be used, and corrupt and mediocre ministers must also be used.

Liu Wentai framed the case, and the case can be closed only after the punishment is set by the three legal divisions. Then the court will be at peace.

However, I never expected that something would happen!

Of the 246 officials who jointly participated in Wang Shu's impeachment, more than 150 were in Beijing.

Liu Wentai was arrested, and more than 150 Beijing officials came to the front of Wang Shu's mansion and blocked the door and scolded.

Jinyi Weibei Town Fusi.

Chang Feng was on duty to check the general ledger of this decade. In the past two years, Wang Shu has strictly managed the Beijing officials and local officials in the Ministry of Officials, and the officials have been restrained a lot.

This led to the inspection of the business of the thousand households, which was not as prosperous as when Emperor Hongzhi first ascended the throne.

Fat Xu ran in in a hurry: "Master Chang! Something is wrong! More than 150 sesame officials surrounded Wang Butang's mansion. ”

Chang Feng was surprised: "What? Let's go to Wang Shu's mansion. ”

Chang Feng brought more than 100 wrestlers to the door of Wang Shu's mansion.

The gates of the royal family were closed. More than 150 officials in front of the gate were shouting at Wang Shu.

These civil servants scolded people like shrews scolding the streets!

"Wang Shu! you! Lao Tzu is the thirteenth in the second class of the gold list! You donkey hanger is jealous of Lao Tzu's high ranking, so you downgraded Lao Tzu three levels in a row! ”

"Wang Shu! You're just a bear with a flower, and you don't look like a person! You don't care if other people have teeth or not! ”

"Lao Tzu has been mixed in officialdom for twenty-five years, and it is easy to mix with the fourth grade. You made Lao Tzu become the head of the six grades with one sentence! ”

"Wang Shu! You lack morality, you are a knife, and there is no home for forty miles, you are a wolf! Liu Wentai and Liu Yuan sentenced that if he was convicted of a felony by the Three Law Divisions, I would definitely play with you! ”

These civil officials don't talk about martial arts! Taking advantage of Wang Shu's serious illness, he blocked the door of people's homes to greet the eight generations of their ancestors.

That is, Wang Shu was so sick that he couldn't get out of bed. Otherwise, the fierce man Lao Wang will come out with a ghost head knife in his hand and come out to talk to them about the benefits.

Chang Feng said loudly: "Everyone, I am Chang Feng, the envoy of Beizhen!" If you have any objections to Liu Wentai's case, you can give a discount to the General Administration! ”

"Don't shout and scold in front of the Tianguan Mansion, Sven sweeps the floor!"

It doesn't matter if Chang Feng doesn't shout, these people are even more imposing: "Okay, Wang Shu is still colluding with the butcher of the factory guard!" ”

"Wang Shu was originally like Qian Neng, that eunuch is two little grasshoppers on the same rope!"

"Wang Shu colluded with the emperor's domestic slaves and eunuchs, he is Sven sweeping the floor!"

Chang Feng secretly scolded in his heart: That is, the emperor has just issued an order to let Jinyiwei respect civil officials in the future.

In the past, I didn't let the wrestlers beat your with a big stick!

At this moment, Qian Neng rode a fast horse to the gate of the mansion.

Qian Neng said angrily: "Chang Feng, what are you still doing in a daze?" Your gang of North Flis are all-eaters? Call me! ”

"Insult the prince, these people are tired of living!"

Chang Feng attached to Qian Neng's ear and whispered: "Duke, the emperor has a decree"

Qian Neng frowned: "Respect for civil officials? Are we going to watch these dogs insult the prince? ”

Chang Feng thought about it a little and thought about it. He said, "Don't worry. I have a way to get them to disperse in an hour. ”

After speaking, Chang Feng instructed Shi Wenyi: "You go find someone quickly"

Half an hour later. Suddenly, more than two hundred people walked towards the gate of the Tianguan Mansion in a mighty and menacing manner.

This group of people are all small in clothes, short in clothes, and they all have wooden sticks in their hands!

Qian Neng was overjoyed when he saw this: "Chang Feng, you found a group of ruffians to beat these chicken neck and egg civil officials?" Tall! The ruffians beat the civil officials and have nothing to do with our Jinyi Guard. ”

Chang Feng smiled slightly: "They are not ruffians. You take a closer look. ”

Money can fix its eyes. The leader of those "ruffians" is Ma Wensheng, the secretary of the Ministry of War!

The group of people with wooden sticks behind him were neither ruffians nor soldiers of the military department, all of them were civil officials in the court!

Li Dongyang, the speaker of the feast, is here!

Zuo Zhongyun Yang Tinghe is here!

The waiter is here!

Yang Yiqing of the Criminal Department is here!

All the civil officials with conscience in the court are here!

These people rushed towards the mediocre officials who insulted Wang Shu like ruffians fighting in groups.

Qian can be surprised: "This is?" ”

Chang Feng smiled slightly: "Father-in-law Qian, please watch the show!" ”

The civil officials of the Ming Dynasty were sometimes no different from the ruffians.

After the Tumubao Change, Zhu Qiyu had not yet ascended the throne, but only when he was in charge of the country. There was a "Fengtianmen Bloody Case" in the imperial court.

Wang Zhen's henchman Ma Shun and two other henchmen were beaten to death by a group of elegant and erudite civil officials in the early dynasty.

In the twentieth year of Chenghua, Peng Hua, a university scholar, recommended candidates for promotion to bachelor's degrees, but missed Jiao Fang.

Jiao Fang said: "If I can't be a bachelor this time, I'll stab Peng Hua with a knife." ”

Brother Jiao does what he says. actually carried a boning knife in the sleeve of the blue robe of the six-rank heron. Peng Hua, who was standing on Chang'an Road waiting for his business trip home.

If it hadn't been discovered by the Han general patrolling Chang'an Road in time, it would have led to a bloody case.

As for the incidents of mass assault by civilian officials that broke out due to party disputes, they are even more numerous.

Only magic can defeat magic.

Just now, Chang Feng asked Shi Wenyi to inform Ma Wensheng about the siege of Wang Shu's mansion.

You must know that Ma Wensheng and Wang Shu are close friends!

And Lao Ma, like Lao Wang, is a fierce general and civil official who carries a knife and cuts people.

The hobbies of ordinary civil officials are to learn piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, appreciate thin horses, and fight tea.

The old horse's hobby is to play with his mother's bowl.

The best friend was blocked at the door of the house and scolded, and Ma Wensheng's anger "poof" rose!

If he transferred his subordinates to teach the demoted mediocre officials a lesson, the nature would change.

Rokubu and Hanlin Temple are all on the same street. Lao Ma simply called all the civil officials who supported Wang Shu and came to fight with the mediocre officials.

They should have arrived a long time ago. Ma Wensheng said slyly: "If you don't have a blade in your hand, you won't take advantage of fighting!" ”

He directly asked the military department to select hundreds of spears in the arsenal. The handle of the gun was sawn into a short stick and distributed to the officials as a weapon in the brawl.

Marven raised his short stick high and shouted: "The whole army is attacking!" ”

A group of elegant and easy-going civil officials rushed into the enemy line with short sticks in their hands!

Yang Yiqing, who looks more ugly than a dog, rushed to the front!

The two sides were in a fight.

A hundred households asked Chang Feng: "Master Chang, do we want to take care of it?" ”

Chang Feng smiled slightly: "Civil officials beat each other and hang our brocade guards?" Let's just watch the show! ”

Qian can echo: "That's it! Then he shouted, "Ma Butang, you beat these dogs hard!" I thank you for the Maharaja! ”

More than 100 brocade guards stood still, watching the excitement with great interest.

said that it was a mutual assault, but in fact, a group of people were unilaterally beaten, and a group of people unilaterally exported.

Who is Ma Wensheng? That was the Xia official of the military department who commanded the million Ming army, Da Sima.

Commanding more than 200 civilian officials with wooden sticks and attacking more than 150 unarmed mediocre officials is not a piece of cake?

He had previously divided the two hundred civil officials into three teams and outflanked them in a zigzag shape.

The mediocre officials were beaten to the point that they cried their fathers and called their mothers, and their noses were blue and their faces were swollen.

Chang Feng simply sat on the stone steps at the entrance of the mansion, and pointed at Ma Wensheng with interest on Erlang's legs.

Yang Yiqing and a mediocre official held hands and confronted each other like wrestling.

Chang Feng shouted: "Yang Langzhong! Yang Yiqing! Say you! The guy across from you looks very strong, but he's unstable. Why don't you attack him? ”

Yang Yiqing was inspired when he heard this shout, and kicked directly at the opponent's crotch with a flirtatious foot.

The opponent immediately fell to the ground, clutching his crotch and wailing on the ground.

This brawl between civil officials lasted for two full moments. It ended in a crushing defeat for the mediocre officials.

The mediocre officials either hugged their heads and scurried, or supported each other in a gray manner, and they escaped after a short time!

Ma Wensheng didn't want to kill anyone. Ordered his civil servants to get out of the way and make way for them.

Chang Feng and Qian Neng walked in front of Ma Wensheng.

Qian Neng smiled so hard that his eyes narrowed into a slit: "Old Ma, you are a man!" gave the prince a bad breath! ”

Ma Wensheng said: "Father-in-law Qian has won the award. Chang Xiaoyou, thank you for reporting to me. Otherwise, let the noisy crows defile the mansion of Wang Butang. ”

Chang Feng said: "Yes, why bother to say thank you." ”

Qian Neng was a little worried: "Alas, the prince is so sick that he can't get out of bed." Let's go in and see him? ”

Ma Wensheng said: "So many people go to visit the sick, it will disturb Wang Butang's recuperation. ”

The old horse was very interesting, and he took two hundred younger brothers out to fight in a group, and he didn't forget to hide a lake pen in his sleeve.

He dipped the blood on the ground with a lake pen and wrote a line of words on the big pillar at the entrance of the mansion, "Dacheng Most Holy Wenxuan King's Throne".

Ma Wensheng and more than 200 civil officials from the Six Ministries and the Hanlin Academy knelt down in front of the pillar reverently.

Marven shouted: "May King Wenxuan manifest his spirit!" Bless Hyunchen with a speedy recovery! ”

A group of civil officials shouted in unison: "May King Wenxuan manifest his spirit!" Bless Hyunchen with a speedy recovery! ”

The shrew's scolding of the street evolved into a beating of local ruffians, and then evolved into praying for the blessing of the king.

Qian Neng sighed to Chang Feng: "There are also people with conscience among civil officials. ”

Chang Feng said: "Yes." In fact, who is loyal and who is traitorous, who is virtuous and who is mediocre, the emperor has a scale in his heart, the officials have a scale in his heart, and the people have a scale in their hearts. ”

In the words of later generations, the mutual assault in front of Wang Shu's mansion was a political turmoil of extremely bad nature.

However, Emperor Hongzhi did not punish any of the officials involved in the fight.

There is no penalty for beating, and there is no punishment for beating.

On the contrary, only one day later, he issued a decree that many members of the "Short Stick Party" were promoted.

Li Dongyang, the hand-picked lecturer of the scriptures, was appointed as the chief examiner of next year's examination.

Promoted to bachelor, Xie Qian was the prince of Zhan Shifu and Shao Zhan Shi.

Yang Yiqing of the Promotion Department was the deputy envoy of Shanxi.

Yang Tinghe was promoted to the left and was promoted to the official of the feast.

What is strange is that Emperor Hongzhi did not severely punish Liu Wentai, the perpetrator of the planting case, and only expelled him from the Tai Hospital.

The general backstage cabinet member Qiu Jun of the planting case was not investigated.

Five days later, Wang Shu folded his resignation. Emperor Hongzhi granted. But he was not given an edict, nor was he given the right to keep it. There is no such thing as the treatment that a meritorious veteran deserves.

On this day, the southern suburbs of the capital. Long Pavilion Ancient Road, Sunset Grass.

Wang Shu prepared to embark on the journey back to his hometown in a carriage.

He remembered that in the winter of the twenty-second year of Chenghua, it was here that he told Zhu Youji, the crown prince of Longqian East Palace: "Pro-virtuous ministers, far villains, the reason why the Han Dynasty was prosperous before."

This is what Emperor Hongzhi did when he ascended the throne. Daming finally showed signs of prosperity. This made him very happy.

There were two or three hundred people who came to send Wang Shu home!

Wang Shu looked at Li Dongyang, Liu Jian, Xie Qian, Yang Tinghe, Yang Yiqing and others.

He said to himself: "The back waves of the Yangtze River push the front waves." May one generation be stronger than the next. ”

Qian Neng, Ma Wensheng, and Chang Feng were also among the farewell crowd.

Qian Neng scolded with a smile: "Old bastard, you are going back to your hometown, I feel very uncomfortable!" ”

Wang Shu was not to be outdone: "Cheap bones, you were beaten lightly by me!" When I was in Yunnan, I beat you so much that you couldn't get out of bed for half a month. I say you should be elated. ”

Qian Neng is a man of temperament, and he couldn't hold back for a while, and actually cried "woo woo".

Wang Shu sighed: "Alas. Cheap bones, serve the emperor well in the palace, and manage the factory guards. Write to me when you have time. ”

"Don't cry and cry like a little girl. Let others look at it, and they will say that you are neither male nor female. ”

Qian Neng burst into tears and laughed: "Lao Tzu is neither a man nor a woman, are you afraid of what others will say?" ”

Turning his head, Wang Shu looked at Ma Wensheng again: "Brother Ma, my resignation recommended you to take over as the secretary of the ministry." There should be a will in these days. ”

"You have to take care of the officials for the emperor. The matter of electing officials is related to the foundation of society. ”

Ma Wensheng arched his hand: "Don't worry." I will follow your example and do my duty. ”

Wang Shu looked at Chang Feng again: "You are a sharp dagger in the emperor's sleeve." ”

"The emperor governs the country, and he not only needs the righteous sword of the Son of Heaven like me and Ma Wensheng. At the same time, you also need a dagger like this that can be hidden in your sleeve and cut gold and jade. ”

"I hope you always have four words in your heart."

Chang Feng asked: "Dare to ask Wang Butang, which four words?" ”

Wang Shu's answer was deafening: "Li Min is alive! ”

Chang Feng said: "Xiaguan keep in mind the teachings of the prince!" ”

Qian Neng complained: "The emperor didn't give you a letter of honor from this generation of famous ministers, and kept the original money."

Wang Shu said with a smile: "In the past six years, I have demoted, demoted, and dismissed so many mediocre officials for the emperor. Always let them and those behind them breathe. ”

"The emperor didn't give me the edict and the original money, he was appeasing those people."

"The emperor's approach is right. Mingjun not only has to use thunderous means, but also appeases people's hearts in a timely manner. ”

"Thousands of people are here! For the sake of the people, I don't even want my life. How can the accounting be compared with the edict and the original money? ”

After speaking, Wang Shu arched his hand to the people who came to say goodbye: "Everyone, you must say goodbye to you for a thousand miles. All good things come to an end! ”

"This is Shaanxi, and the leaves fall back to the roots. It is a good beginning and a good end. ”

"I hope that you will fulfill your duties in Beijing and assist Mingjun. For all generations to open a peaceful scene, the people live and work in peace and contentment, and the Ming Dynasty prospered for ten thousand years! ”

After speaking, Wang Shu boarded the carriage.

Qian Neng shouted: "Prince, let's go!" ”

More than 200 officials shouted in unison: "Prince, go well!" ”

The carriage carrying Wang Shu disappeared into the afterglow of the setting sun.

The era of Wang Shu is over. Of the three gentlemen of Hongzhi, only two remain in the court.

Next, it will be the era of the three heroes of the Koji cabinet.

In history books, good people are usually not rewarded.

Wang Shu is an exception.

He returned to his hometown to recuperate, and he lost the burden of the case, and all his illnesses were eliminated. He lived to Zhengde for three years and died without illness at the age of ninety-three.

Emperor Zhengde posthumously presented his left pillar country and Taishi, nicknamed "Duanyi".

In accordance with the law, etiquette and righteousness are said; Sacred Meditation is said to be the end; Yan Gong said the end; Respect yourself and be tolerant.

Can An Zhaomin say Yi; Protect the community Ji said Yi; Virtue is not disputed; Thinking about goodness is not easy to say.

Wang Shu is a good person and a good official
