The next day, Li Dongyang, Xie Qian, and Liu Daxia came to Jinyiwei to check the accounts as scheduled.

As the commander, Mu Bin naturally had to come forward and greet the three Qincha who were auditing the accounts with Chang Feng.

Li Dongyang said: "Commander Mu, often the same knowledge. We are also acting on orders. And please don't hold grudges. ”

Mu Bin is kind and has a good reputation in Beijing. He said: "We are all on errands for the emperor, what do we have to hold grudges or not." Three people can do business. ”

Chang Feng echoed: "What the commander said is true. We wish that the three messengers would come to check the accounts and save the people below from filling their pockets. ”

The three said they were here to check the accounts, but they didn't even look at the accounts. Sitting in the command envoy duty room, chatting with Mu Bin and Chang Feng without a match.

They just sent a few household scribes to check the income and expenditure of Jinyiwei with the 100 households of Jinyiwei.

Chang Feng secretly said in his heart: It seems that the previous judgment was correct. These three old men went up to check the accounts of Jinyiwei, just to express an attitude to the civil officials.

An attitude that is incompatible with the factory guard.

How can there be civil officials who don't hate factory guards? Li Dongyang and Xie Qian's stubble in looking for Jinyiwei can win the favor of most civil officials at the critical moment of entering the cabinet and add points to themselves.

This thing is, in the words of later generations, fighting for the mass base.

Li Dongyang drank tea and asked casually: "Chang Tongzhi, how are the preparations for next year's spring festival?" ”

Chang Feng replied with a smile: "I'm ashamed." I'm afraid it's going to be a lot worse this time. ”

Liu Daxia said with a smile: "Chang Xiaoyou is too modest. You can write a few test-taking essays if you have nothing to do, and let Binzhi (Li Dongyang's character Binzhi) take a look at it and give some advice. ”

"He's the No. 1 on the gold list."

Li Dongyang said humbly: "I don't dare to brag about the first place in the second class in front of Brother Xie." ”

After speaking, Li Dongyang pointed at Xie Qian: "Brother Xie is the first champion and the first champion of the Eight Classics!" ”

In later generations, there will always be some people who advocate the uselessness of test rankings and the uselessness of scores.

In fact, for students, what is not compared to scores and rankings? Is it better than anyone else, who can play games more six, who can brag more?

A high score and a high ranking in the exam represent an excellent IQ.

Throughout the history books, most of the experiences of the Ming Dynasty are similar: he was a prodigy since he was a child, and he tried to solve the Yuan and Yayuan in the countryside when he was a teenager. Within a few years, the palace examination ranked in the top ten of the first or second class.

Only with such a top IQ can he be among the highest echelons of power in the empire.

Xie Qian is good at talking, and he will be foolish when he speaks: "When I tried in the palace, I was clever in the text, and I was only the first. If you want to talk about the eight-share system, you have to look at the guests. ”

He has served in the Hanlin Academy all the year round, and has been the chief examiner of the township examination and the general examination. Having said that, with the talent of the common knowledge, even if there is no guidance from a master, it is enough to be named on the gold list. ”

"When the time comes, Chang Tongzhi not only has the qualifications of Conglong, but also the great achievements he has made over the years, as well as the background of Jinshi. It is possible to be in the ministry in the future, and even enter the cabinet. ”

Xie Kankan lives up to his reputation.

The three of them chatted in the bedroom for an entire hour. Xie Qian foamed at the stars, and everyone was stunned.

The secretary of the household department reported: "There are three messengers. The income and expenditure of Jinyiwei's accounts are clear, and there is no falsification of accounts and interception of money. ”

It's a bit of. Jin Yiwei's accounts for so many years, how can a few scribes check them clearly within an hour?

It is clear that Li Dongyang and others want to be perfunctory.

They proposed the audit, and they instructed the perfunctory work. Sure enough, it's just to make a gesture of being evil with Jinyiwei.

Li Dongyang arched his hand towards Mu Bin and Chang Feng: "Two, the errand is done." We say goodbye! ”

Mu Bin and Chang Feng sent the three of them all the way outside the yamen.

After the three of them left, Mu Bin whispered: "This thing is inexplicable. ”

Chang Feng smiled slightly: "You think they are inexplicable." They're not inexplicable! ”

"Officials should be in their role, and everything they do has a purpose."

The truth is as expected. Li Dongyang and Xie Qian looked for Jinyiwei's stubble in order to win the support of civil officials.

Liu Daxia carried the sedan chair for the two.

But Chang Feng didn't hold a grudge against the three of them. Li Dongyang and Xie Qian are people, and he, the treasurer of Jinyiwei, knows best.

Both of them are noble people, and the eyes and ears of the Jinyi Guard have never dug up black material on them. And they all have great political talents.

If one of the two of them ends up in the cabinet, it will be a blessing for the community and the people.

After three days, the imperial gate was early.

Xu Pu, the first assistant to the cabinet, first went out to work: "Your Majesty." The Cabinet has been short for half a month. The minister respectfully asks the emperor to quickly determine the cabinet candidates. ”

Emperor Hongzhi said: "I have been thinking carefully recently. There will be a will in three or five days. ”

At this time, Li Ke gave Sun Chunbin a tribute to the matter: "Your Majesty." The minister wanted to impeach the two. ”

Sun Chunbin, in his sixties. The official luck of his life is not very prosperous. When he was old, he learned to cling to the eunuchs.

Since last year, he has become a henchman of Li Guang.

Emperor Hongzhi asked, "Oh? Who is impeached? ”

Sun Chunbin said loudly: "Impeachment of Li Dongyang, the right attendant of the Ministry of Rites, and Zhan Shi Xie Qian!" ”

Chang Feng in the military attache class was secretly surprised: a good seven-grade to the matter. If you don't participate in impeachment sooner, you won't participate in impeachment later. At the critical moment of entering the cabinet, he participated in the impeachment of Li and Xie.

I'd like to hear what you have to say about them. Even our brocade guards can't dig up their black material.

Sun Chunbin took out a notebook: "Your Majesty." When Li Dongyang and Xie Qian were in the Chenghua Dynasty, they attached themselves to the eunuch Shangming. ”

"Chenghua is still alive for sixteen years. Li Dongyang actually wrote an article "Internal Minister". This endowment is extremely capable of slapping horses. There are many rebellious words in the article. ”

Xie Qian presented a jade horse as a birthday gift. Take Shang Ming's meaning of 'taking the lead' in the DPRK. Under the jade horse seat, a line of small characters was also engraved: 'Xie Qian, the lackey under the door, presents the internal minister'. ”

As soon as Sun Chunbin's words came out, the dynasty was in an uproar!

After Emperor Hongzhi ascended the throne, Shang Ming had become a stinky shit! Whoever gets it stinks.

If Sun Chunbin's participation is a fact. Then Li Dongyang and Xie Qian's reputations are ruined. Not to mention entering the cabinet, whether the current official position can be kept is two words.

Chang Feng couldn't help but sneer contemptuously: "Heh." ”

Emperor Hongzhi asked, "Chang Feng, why are you laughing?" ”

Chang Feng planned to say a few fair words for Li Dongyang and Xie Qian.

Chang Feng said: "Your Majesty, what Sun Chunbin said is not even a matter of wind and news!" It's a false accusation of red mouth and white teeth! ”

"As far as the minister knows, in the sixteenth year of Chenghua, Li Dongyang was only a banquet attendant. Xie Qian was only edited by Hanlin. ”

"Not to mention that the two of them are noble-minded, they will never talk to Shang Ming. Even if they wanted to tie the knot, with their status at that time, they wouldn't be able to enter Shang Ming's birthday banquet! ”

Emperor Hongzhi said: "Reasonable." ”

Sun Chunbin competed against each other: "I often know what is wrong!" Li Dongyang is the first in the second class. Xie Qian is the first champion and first. ”

"With their Kojia background. Even if the official position is low, Shang Ming will value them! ”

"Your Majesty, the minister is by no means a rumor! In Jinyiwei's secret file, there are not only the records of Li Dongyang presenting "Inner Xiangfu" to Shang Ming, but also the records of Xie Qian presenting jade horses to Shang Ming! ”

"In addition, after the Shangming Mansion was copied, all the treasures were confiscated into the inner transport warehouse."

"The emperor has a heart for the community. He ordered most of the treasures to be sold for money and used for state affairs. A small part of the treasures were given to the queen. ”

"If you look in the Kunning Palace, you may be able to find that jade horse!"

Chang Feng couldn't help it: "Sun Chunbin, you are open-mouthed!" The secret file of Jinyi Wei Chenghua for 16 years was under the management of Wantong, the commander at the time. Could it be that Wantong will record the hidden affairs of the same party Shang Ming? ”

Sun Chunbin said with a smile: "Chang Tongzhi forgot that the East Factory supervises Jinyiwei. The sixteen-year-old governor of Dongchang in Chenghua is your godfather Huai'en! ”

"Father-in-law Huaien is not afraid of adultery, and risked his life to record Shang Ming's secret affairs in the secret file."

"Yes or no, check the secret file! In addition, the jade horse can also be searched in the Kunning Palace, maybe you can find it! ”

Li Dongyang said angrily: "Sun Chunbin, you are spewing blood. ”

Xie Qian also said: "Your Majesty, please issue an order to investigate this matter thoroughly and return the minister's innocence." ”

Emperor Hongzhi looked at Sun Chunbin, and then at Li Dongyang and Xie Qian.

He secretly said in his heart: Nine times out of ten, Sun Chunbin planted it. But if I want to promote Li and Xie into the cabinet, I must issue a thorough investigation and return their innocence.

Emperor Hongzhi said: "Changfeng." I order you to check the secret files in the brocade guard. ”

Turning his head, Emperor Hongzhi said to Li Guang again: "Li Guang, you are the steward of Kunning Palace." ”

"The treasures of Kunning Palace are all under your care. I command you to go and take inventory of the treasures. Let's see if we can find the jade horse. ”

Chang Feng and Li Guang received the order.

Sun Chunbin said: "Your Majesty, the minister heard that Chang Tongzhi has a very personal relationship with Li Dongyang and Xie Qian. In order to avoid favoritism, the minister asked to check the secret documents. ”

Emperor Hongzhi said: "Quasi-play." ”

After the dispersal of the dynasty, Chang Feng followed Sun Chunbin to Jinyiwei.

Chang Feng said half-sarcastically: "If it weren't for your participation in the impeachment of Li Butang and Xie Zhan today. I didn't even know there was your number in the court. ”

"In the matter of Xiao Xiaoqipin, at the critical moment of selecting cabinet members, he framed two people who were very likely to enter the cabinet. Must have been instructed by someone, right? ”

Sun Chunbin stiffened his neck and said righteously: "This is not a frame, but a fact." Check the secret file and find out! ”

Chang Feng said angrily: "You are like a duck." ”

Sun Chunbin frowned: "Why do you say this?" ”

Chang Feng explained: "Ducks, cooked meat, can't be boiled." Hard mouth! ”

"Beizhen Fusi secret file room, I'm better than you! Before the twenty-third spring of Chenghua, Shang Ming's secret file was empty! ”

"In the secret files of Li Dongyang and Xie Qian, there is no record of collusion with Shang Ming!"

Chang Feng is a very good person. Since the cabinet was short of members, he carefully read the secret files of several officials who might enter the cabinet in case Emperor Hongzhi inquired.

Li Dongyang and Xie Qian's secret files are whiter than the buttocks of the Ninth Lady.

The two of them have been officials for so many years, and they have basically achieved self-cleanliness.

Both men are extremely fame-conscious. How is it possible to tie up Shang Ming?

The two came to Jinyiwei. Chang Feng ordered the 100 households to open the secret file room.

Chang Feng first asked the pipe file to find Shang Ming's secret file box.

There are as many as six secret files. But after Emperor Hongzhi ascended the throne, he turned Shangming's old bottom and added it.

The secret file is full of kidnapping tickets to extort rich people, colluding with Wantong, flattering Wan Guifei and the like.

Where did the names of Li Dongyang and Xie Qian be mentioned?

Chang Feng read it and said to Sun Chunbin: "How is it, are you dead?" I advise you to confess honestly, who instructed you to frame Li and Xie. ”

Sun Chunbin smiled slightly: "Chang Tongzhi said it too early, right?" Li Dongyang and Xie Qian's secret files haven't been seen yet! ”

"There is no record in Shang Ming's secret file, it doesn't mean that there is no secret file between the two of them!"

Chang Feng impatiently said to the hundreds of households in charge of the stalls: "Transfer Li Dongyang and Xie Qian's secret files!" ”

Not long after, the 100 households in charge brought the two-person secret file.

Chang Feng is full of confidence. Three days ago, he had just seen Li and Xie's secret files. There is no record of befriending Shang Ming in it.

After opening the file box, he began to rummage in front of Sun Chunbin.

Suddenly, he turned to a certain page, and the page read, "In the winter of the sixteenth year of Chenghua, Shang Ming has a great birthday." Li Dongyang presented a poem "Inner Phase". ”

On this page, the content of "Inner Xiangfu" is written in detail. It's all goosebumps-like flattery!

What's even more outrageous is that there is another sentence in it: "Shang Gong's talent far surpasses Liu Ji, Song Lian, and Gao Qi." ”

This sentence is shameless for the sake of sycophancy! Shang Ming is just a coarse writer, and he is compared with the three masters of poetry and literature in the early Ming Dynasty? And a "far beyond"?

Sun Chunbin was like a rooster who had won, and said arrogantly: "Look! This is the record of your brocade guards! Li Dongyang is really a flatterer! ”

Chang Feng was dumbfounded. When he checked Li Dongyang's secret file three days ago, he had never seen this paragraph at all!

What's going on? Could it be that Li Dongyang's black material on this page flew into the file box by himself?

Sun Chunbin opened Xie Qian's secret file. After rummaging through it, he pointed to one of the pages and said, "Chang Tongzhi can see for himself!" ”

Chang Feng took a closer look, only to see that it read, "In the winter of the sixteenth year of Chenghua, Xie Qian spent eight hundred taels of silver, purchased a Burmese jade jade horse, and dedicated it to Shang Ming as a birthday gift." ”

"Under the Jade Horse Seat, engrave 'Xie Qian, the lackey under the door, presents the internal minister'."

Hell yes! This black material also appeared in the file box out of thin air.

Chang Feng stabilized his mind, and secretly said in his heart: There are no ghosts and gods in this matter, but there are internal ghosts! It seems that there was an inner ghost in the Jinyi Guard, entered the stall room, and made a move on Li and Xie's secret file box!

Broken!

A while ago, Li Guang bowed to Liu Zhang, and it is likely that he wanted to push Liu Zhang into the cabinet.

If Li Dongyang and Xie Qian don't have an accident, the cabinet chair will not be Liu Zhang's turn to sit at all.

The emperor asked Li Guang to find the jade horse that Xie Qian "gifted" back then in Kunning Palace, I'm afraid he can really find it!

Order someone to make one, engrave Xie Qian's name, and stuff it into the box where the treasure is stored!

Chang Feng now suspects that Li Guang colluded with the ghosts in Jinyi Wei to add Li and Xie's black material to the file box.

The purpose is to sweep away competitors for Liu Zhang.

Sun Chunbin smiled: "How is it?" Your Jinyiwei's secret records have always been meticulous. This is enough to prove that Li and Xie have had the experience of raping eunuchs! ”

At this moment, the celebrant and supervisor Cheng Gu Dayong came to the door of the stall.

He can't go into the stall without a will. He shouted into the stall: "Where does Chang Tong know? ”

Chang Feng walked to the door: "What's wrong?" ”

Gu Da said in a gloomy voice: "Gonggong Li asked me to pass on a message to you." The jade horse that Xie Qian sent Shang Ming has found! ”

Secret records and physical evidence are all there. Now Li Dongyang and Xie Qian can't wash it even if they jump into the Yellow River!

Chang Feng gasped, and secretly said in his heart: Good means!
