The days when I ransacked the house in Jinyiwei

Chapter 161 An Era Is Over (The second half of this chapter is wonderfully written! Seven thousand words)
Liu Wentai is an unsophisticated conspirator.

After some investigation, Chang Feng and Yang Yiqing found that "Wang Tianguan Biography" was spread all over the bookstores and stalls in the capital.

This is easier to check.

When books were printed in the Ming Dynasty, the name of the school responsible for printing should be written on the cover of the book.Shutang is equivalent to the publishing house of later generations.

Although "Wang Tianguan Biography" is written "Shaangan Chang'an Hall Seal".Chang Feng believed that such a large-scale printing must have been done in Beizhili.

Chang Feng and Yang Yiqing interrogated several bookstore shopkeepers, and they all admitted that this batch of books was printed and delivered by Rixintang, a famous bookstore in the capital.

The two came to follow the vines, pretending to be literati who planned to publish a book, and came to Rixintang.

In Rixin Hall, a gentleman in charge of a case is chatting with a wealthy businessman.Chang Feng and Yang Yiqing are behind the wealthy businessman.

The gentleman sitting on the case talked endlessly: "As long as you pay 100 taels of silver, you can publish your poems and pass them on to future generations. You will become a famous literati and poet!"

The purchasing power of 100 taels of silver in the Hongzhi Dynasty was roughly equal to 10 yuan in later generations.

Most of the books in later generations are published at their own expense, and the cost is almost 10 yuan to buy an ISBN and get [-] hardcover copies.

As long as you are willing to pay, even primary school students' essays can still be published in volumes.

If you refuse to pay, I'm sorry, even if you have Mo and Yu's talent, no one will publish it for you.

For hundreds of years, the cost of publishing books has been similar.Really conscientious!
Chang Feng frowned when he heard this.He has always believed that only the articles written by talented people can be published in books.

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

The rich businessman smiled all over his face: "100 taels of silver, it's really a good deal to buy a name as a literati and poet!"

After finishing talking, the wealthy businessman took out a hundred tael silver note from his sleeve: "When will the book be printed?"

The gentleman in charge replied: "We have to wait for four months. If you rush, you will pay an additional one hundred taels. The engraving can be printed in one month."

The wealthy businessman smiled and said, "I'm not in a hurry. There's no need to pay so much extra money. I'll pick up the books in four months."

The gentleman in charge sent away the rich businessman.Ask Chang Feng and Yang Yiqing: "Are the two gentlemen going to publish a book?"

Chang Feng winked at Yang Yiqing.

Yang Yiqing directly showed the badge of the doctor of the Ministry of punishment: "It belongs to the Ministry of punishment."

The gentleman sitting the case turned pale with shock: "Department of Punishment?"

Although the Criminal Department's handling methods are not as ruthless as Jin Yiwei's, but for ordinary people, it is also an existence that is bound to be unlucky.

Yang Yiqing said: "Go, call your master out!"

Not long after, Liu Jinwen, the owner of Rixintang, came in front of Chang Feng and Yang Yiqing.

In the capital city where big people are everywhere, Liu Jinwen is just an inconspicuous little person.

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

Liu Jinwen has always been a man who has seen the world.I usually publish books for the civil servants in the capital, and have dealt with many high-ranking officials.

He bowed his hands towards Chang Feng and Yang Yiqing, and said neither humble nor overbearing: "What is the two adults doing to find the younger one?"

Chang Feng directly put the "Wang Tianguan Biography" on the table: "Is this book published by your school?"

Liu Jinwen picked it up and looked at it: "We made it."

Chang Feng asked: "When did it come out? Why is the Shangan Chang'an Church printed on the book cover instead of the Rixin Church in Beijing?"

Liu Jinwen replied: "That's right. A month ago, someone found our Rixin Church. He said that he would pay 2000 taels of silver and expedite the printing of [-] copies of "Wang Tianguan Biography."

"He asked for 'Shaangan Chang'an Hall' to be printed on the book cover. Local book halls are not strong enough to print books, and it is common for us to entrust Rixin Hall to print books. I agreed."

Chang Feng quickly asked: "Who is the person who asked you to print the book?"

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

Chang Feng's eyes lit up when he heard the words: "The distant cousin is also surnamed Liu, right? What's his name?"

Liu Jinwen replied truthfully: "Liu Wentai. He is currently serving as a magistrate in the Imperial Hospital."

Chang Feng never expected it.The case was investigated without breaking a sweat.

What he didn't expect was that the aftermath of this incident was much more difficult than the investigation process!
He told Liu Jinwen: "Look at this "Biography of Wang Tianguan", and count how many treasonous words there are!"

After Liu Jinwen looked at it carefully, he yelled: "Liu Wentai hurt me! My lords, when he came to see me, he gave money very happily, and he was a distant cousin. I didn't pay attention to the content, and asked the people below to print it quickly. "

Yang Yiqing told him: "Come with us to the Ministry of Punishment."

After entering the Criminal Department, Yang Yiqing did not punish Liu Jinwen.Liu Jinwen is a well-behaved businessman, he confessed to the confession and put a charge on the confession.

After reading the confession, Chang Feng breathed a sigh of relief: "Liu Wentai has three charges for impeaching Wang Butang. Only the first one, slandering the former emperor, has real evidence."

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

Yang Yiqing said: "I didn't expect Liu Wentai to be so stupid. He didn't hide it at all."

Chang Feng echoed: "That's right. Liu Wentai is just a stupid villain. Come on, I'll take you into the palace!"

Yang Yiqing had an excited expression after hearing this: "Mianjun? Can you allow me to change into court clothes and Liang Guan?"

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

Mian Jun is commonplace for Chang Feng.For Yang Yiqing, it was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

Chang Feng said: "Okay, I'll wait for Master Yang."

The most formal attire of officials in the Ming Dynasty is to wear court clothes and a beam crown.

Liang Guan is quite particular, and the public wears eight beams; Hou, Bo, son-in-law, and first-rank officials wear seven beams; second-rank officials wear six beams.in descending order.

Yang Yiqing is the fifth rank, wearing a three-beam crown.

Yang Yi washed his face, changed into the court clothes and the three-beam crown, tidied up, and came to Chang Feng: "Please trouble Chang Zhenfu to take me into the palace."

Chang Feng looked at Yang Yiqing.Smiling secretly in his heart: Brother Yang is still uglier than a tiger when he puts on the court clothes and Liang Guan.

It is said that people rely on clothes and horses rely on saddles, but this doesn't work for Brother Yang.

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

They knelt down in front of Emperor Hongzhi.

It was the first time that Emperor Hongzhi met Yang Yiqing.He ordered: "Yang Yiqing, raise your head."

It doesn't matter if Yang Yiqing raises his head, Emperor Hongzhi shrank his neck in fright.

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

It is worthy of being the Son of Heaven.Emotional intelligence is high.

Low EQ: Uglier than a dog.

High emotional intelligence: strange people with different appearances.

Yang Yiqing said: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your praise."

Chang Feng on the side couldn't help laughing: How can the emperor praise you.

Yang Yiqing is in charge of investigating and handling the impeachment case this time.Chang Feng only followed him to observe politics in name.

Yang Yiqing reported the ins and outs of the case.

Emperor Hongzhi nodded after hearing this: "Sure enough, it was framed. Let me just say, Lao Wang would never do such a foolish thing."

"Yang Yiqing, your criminal department will arrest Liu Wentai immediately. Interrogate him with the Metropolitan Procuratorate and Dali Temple, and convict him."

Yang Yiqing kowtowed: "I obey the order."

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

Yang Yiqing replied: "The minister is the top three No. 90 five in the eighth year of Chenghua Palace Examination, and he was born as a Jinshi."

Emperor Hongzhi's difference: "I've been an official for 19 years, and I'm still just a doctor?"

Yang Yiqing smiled wryly: "I report to the emperor. I don't make progress."

Chang Feng said good things for Yang Yiqing: "Your Majesty, in the palace examination, the first emperor gave Yang Langzhong the first and second place after reading the articles."

"Later, the front of the hall replied, because Yang Langzhong was a strange man with a strange appearance. The first emperor set him in the top three."

Emperor Hongzhi knew it in his heart: it turned out that it was because of his ugly appearance that the imperial examination and official career were not smooth.

Emperor Hongzhi intends to test Yang Yiqing.Question: "You are in charge of criminal names in Beizhili at the Ministry of Criminal Justice. What do you think are the merits and shortcomings of criminal names in Beizhili?"

Yang Yiqing was concise, well-organized, and answered fluently.In just a moment, all the criminal names in Beizhili were introduced to Emperor Hongzhi.

Emperor Hongzhi was very satisfied: "Qing is more than just a fifth-rank doctor. You go down first."

Yang Yiqing left the hall.

Emperor Hongzhi said to Chang Feng: "The case is closed. You can end your observation of politics in the Ministry of Criminal Justice. Liu Wentai is so stupid that it is overkill for you to investigate."

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

Emperor Hongzhi told him again: "There is something I want to remind you. From now on, Jin Yiwei will treat civil servants with respect at least on the surface. Don't beat or scold."

"To save someone from saying that I rule the world with my family slaves, and regard civil servants as slaves of slaves."

Chang Feng cupped his hands: "I will keep the hadith in mind."

Liu Wentai was arrested.During the interrogation by the three courts, he did not confess to Qiu Jun, the mastermind behind the scenes.He knew in his heart that if Mr. Qiu Ge was not confessed, he would still have a chance.

If Mr. Qiu Ge is confessed, he will die ten times and never live.

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

Being an emperor is like this. Famous and virtuous officials must use it, treacherous officials must use it, and corrupt Confucian and mediocre officials must also use it.

Liu Wentai's frame-up case will be closed only after the Sanju Judiciary decides the punishment.At that time, the court will return to peace.

However, it never occurred to me that something would happen!
Among the 240 six officials who jointly impeached Wang Shu, more than 150 are in Beijing.

Liu Wentai was arrested, and more than 150 Beijing officials came to Wang Shu's mansion, blocking the door and shouting.

Jinyiwei North Town Fusi.

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

This led to the inspection of Qianhusuo's business, which was not as prosperous as when Emperor Hongzhi first came to the throne.

Fatty Xu rushed in in a hurry: "Master Chang! Something has happened! More than 150 Zhima officials surrounded Wang Butang's mansion."

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

Chang Feng brought more than a hundred warriors to the gate of Wang Shu's mansion.

The door of the Wang family was closed.More than 150 officials in front of the gate were yelling at Wang Shu at the top of their voices.

These civil servants scolded people like shrews!

"Wang Shu! Fuck you! I'm No. 13 in the top two of the gold list! You're a donkey who is at the bottom of the list and jealous of my top ranking, so I demoted me three levels in a row!"

"Wang Shu! You are a bear with a flower, no one! You are so fragile that you don't care if others are toothless or not!"

"I've been in the officialdom for 25 years, and I finally managed to get into the fourth rank. With just one word from you, I'm downgraded to a sixth rank master!"

"Wang Shu! You are wicked, you have been stabbed, you have no home in forty miles, you are a wolf! If Liu Wentai and Liu Yuan are convicted of a felony by the three judges, I will fight with you!"

These civil servants don't talk about Wude!Taking advantage of Wang Shu's serious illness, he stopped at the door of the family and greeted the eight generations of his ancestors.

That is, Wang Shu was too sick to get out of bed.Otherwise, Lao Wang, a fierce man from the sky, will come out to tell them what is wrong with him.

Chang Feng said in a loud voice: "Everyone, I am Chang Feng, the governor of Beizhen! If you have any objections to Liu Wentai's case, you can report to the Secretary of General Administration!"

"Don't yell and scold in front of the Heavenly Official's Mansion, you'll be gentle and sweep the floor!"

It doesn't matter if Chang Feng doesn't shout, this group of people is even more powerful: "Okay, Wang Shu also colluded with the factory guard's butcher!"

"Wang Shu and that eunuch Qian Neng were two little grasshoppers on the same rope!"

"Wang Shu colluded with the emperor's slaves and eunuchs, he is the one who sweeps the ground!"

Chang Feng cursed inwardly: That is to say, the emperor just ordered Jin Yiwei to respect civil servants in the future.

In the past, I didn't let wrestlers beat your shit out with big sticks!

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

Qian Neng said angrily: "Chang Feng, what are you still doing? The Beisi wrestlers under you all eat shit? Hit me!"

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

Chang Feng clung to Qian Neng's ear and said in a low voice: "Duke, the emperor has a decree"

Qian Neng frowned: "Respect the civil servants? Are we going to just watch this gang of chicken neck eggs insult the prince?"

Chang Feng thought about it for a while and made up his mind.He said: "Duke, don't worry. I have a way to make them disperse within an hour."

After finishing speaking, Chang Feng told Shi Wenyi: "Go find someone quickly."

After half an hour.Suddenly, more than 200 people walked towards the gate of Tianguan Mansion in a mighty and aggressive manner.

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

Qian Neng was overjoyed when he saw this: "Chang Feng, you hired a group of ruffians to beat up these civil servants with chicken necks and eggs? High! It has nothing to do with our Jinyiwei that the ruffians beat up the civil servants."

Chang Feng smiled slightly: "They are not hooligans. Take a closer look."

Qian can take a look at it.The leader of that group of "hooligans" was actually Ma Wensheng, Minister of the Ministry of War!

The group of people holding wooden sticks behind him were neither hooligans nor personal soldiers of the Ministry of War, they were all civil servants in the court!

Li Dongyang, the lecturer of Jingyan, is here!
Zuo Zhongyun Yang Tinghe is here!

Xie Qian, the Bachelor of Attendance, is here!

Yang Yiqing, the doctor of the Ministry of punishment, is here!
All civil servants with conscience in the imperial court are here!

This group of people rushed towards the mediocre officials who insulted Wang Shu like gangsters.

Qian Neng was surprised: "This is?"

Chang Feng smiled slightly: "Eunuch Qian, please watch the show!"

The civil officials of the Ming Dynasty were no different from local ruffians at times.

After the change of Tumu Fortress, Zhu Qiyu had not yet ascended the throne, but was only in charge of the state.The "Fengtianmen massacre" happened in the imperial court.

Ma Shun, Wang Zhen's confidant, and two other henchmen were beaten to death by a group of refined and erudite civil servants in the early court.

In the 20th year of Chenghua, Peng Hua, a university scholar, recommended candidates for promotion to a bachelor's degree, but Jiao Fang, the attendant, was omitted.

Jiao Fang said: "If I don't become a bachelor this time, I will stab Peng Hua with a single knife."

Brother Jiao sticks to his word.There was actually a boning knife hidden in the sleeve of the sixth-grade egret's blue robe.Peng Hua was standing on Chang'an Avenue waiting for his return home.

If the big Han general patrolling Chang'an Road hadn't discovered it in time, it would have led to a murder.

As for the incidents of gang fights among civil officials due to party disputes, there are countless of them.

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 know, Ma Wensheng and Wang Shu are best friends!
And the old horse, like the old Wang, is a fierce civil servant who goes into battle with a knife and slashes people.

The hobbies of ordinary civil servants are playing piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, appreciating lean horses, and fighting tea.

Lao Ma's hobby is playing with his mother's blunderbuss.

When his best friend was blocked at the door and scolded, Ma Wensheng became very angry!
If he transfers his subordinates to teach those mediocre officials who have been demoted, the nature will change.

Both the Sixth Ministry and the Hanlin Academy are 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 long ago.But Ma Wensheng said slyly: "It's not an advantage to fight without a weapon in your hand!"

He directly asked the arsenal secretary of the Ministry of War to select hundreds of spears in the arsenal.The handle of the gun was sawn into a short stick, and it was distributed to the officials as a weapon for fighting.

Ma Wensheng raised his short stick high and shouted: "The whole army strikes!"

A group of elegant and easy-going civil servants rushed into the enemy's formation holding up their short sticks!

Yang Yiqing, who was uglier than a dog, rushed to the front!

The two sides immediately fought together.

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

Chang Feng smiled slightly: "Civilian officials are fighting each other, it's our Jinyiwei's business? Let's just watch the show!"

Qian Neng echoed: "Yes!" Then he shouted: "Ma Butang, you beat these bastards hard! I thank you on behalf of the prince!"

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

It is said to be fighting each other, but it is actually a group of people being beaten unilaterally and a group of people outputting unilaterally.

Who is Ma Wensheng?That was the Xia official of the Ministry of War who commanded millions of Ming troops, Da Sima.

Isn't it a piece of cake to command more than 200 civil servants with wooden sticks and attack more than 150 unarmed mediocre officials?
He had previously divided the two hundred civil servants into three teams, encircling them in the shape of a character character.

The mediocre officials were beaten until they cried for their fathers and mothers, with bruised noses and swollen faces.

Chang Feng simply sat on the stone steps at the entrance of the mansion, crossed his legs and pointed to Ma Wensheng with great interest.

Yang Yiqing was holding hands with a mediocre official, confronting each other as if they were wrestling.

Chang Feng shouted: "Mr. Yang! Yang Yiqing! Tell me! The man opposite you looks very strong, but his foot is not stable. Why don't you attack him?"

Inspired by this shout, Yang Yiqing kicked his opponent's crotch directly with a provocative foot.

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

The brawl between civil servants lasted for a full two minutes.It ended with the fiasco of the mediocre officials.

The mediocre officials either ran away with their heads in their hands, or supported each other in despair, and they all escaped in a short time!
Ma Wensheng didn't want to kill anyone either.He ordered his civil servants to get out of the way and make way for them.

Chang Feng and Qian Neng walked up to Ma Wensheng.

Qian Neng smiled until his eyes narrowed: "Old Ma, you are a man! You gave the prince a bad breath!"

Ma Wensheng said: "Eunuch Qian is overwhelmed. Xiaoyou Chang, thank you for reporting to me. Otherwise, those noisy crows will pollute Wang Butang's mansion."

Chang Feng said: "It should be, why bother to thank you."

Qian Neng was a little worried: "Oh, the prince is too sick to get out of bed. Let's go in and see him?"

Ma Wensheng said: "So many people going in to visit the sick will disturb Wang Butang's rest."

The old horse is very funny, he took two hundred younger brothers out to fight in groups, and he didn't forget to hide a Hu pen in his sleeve.

He dipped a lake pen into the blood on the ground, and wrote a line of words on the big pillar at the gate of the mansion, "Dacheng Zhisheng Wenxuan Wang Zhizheng".

Ma Wensheng and more than 200 civil officials from the Sixth Ministry and the Imperial Academy knelt down devoutly in front of the pillar.

Ma Wensheng shouted: "May King Wenxuan appear! May the virtuous minister recover soon!"

All the civil officials shouted in unison: "May the King Wenxuan show his spirit! May the virtuous minister recover soon!"

Shrew swearing turned into gangsters fighting each other, and turned into praying for Wang Shu.

Qian Neng sighed to Chang Feng: "Among the civil servants, there are people who still have a conscience."

Chang Feng said: "Yes. In fact, who is loyal and who is evil, who is virtuous and who is mediocre, the emperor has a steelyard in his heart, all officials have a steelyard in his heart, and the common people have a steelyard in their heart."

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

Emperor Hongzhi, however, did not punish either of the officials involved in the fight.

Those who hit were not punished, and those who were beaten were not punished.

On the contrary, only one day later, he issued an imperial decree and promoted many members of the "Short Stick Party".

Li Dongyang, the lecturer of Jingyan, was appointed as the main examiner of the next year's examination.

Xie Qian, who was promoted to serve as a lecturer, became the prince Zhan Shifu's young Zhan Shi.

Yang Yiqing, a doctor of the Ministry of punishment, was the deputy envoy of Shanxi procuratorate.

Promoted to Zuozhong, Yang Tinghe was allowed to be the lecturer of Jingyan.

The strange thing is that Emperor Hongzhi did not severely punish Liu Wentai, the perpetrator of the frame-up case, but only expelled him from the Imperial Hospital.

Qiu Jun, the cabinet member of the general backstage of the planting case, has not been pursued.

Five days later, Wang Shu submitted his resignation.Emperor Hongzhi agreed.But he was neither given an imperial edict, nor was he given to retain his original salary.There is no treatment that a meritorious veteran should have when he becomes an official.

Today, in the southern suburbs of the capital.Changting ancient road, sunset grass.

Wang Shu is going to take a carriage to embark on the journey back home.

He suddenly remembered that it was here in the winter of the 22nd year of Chenghua. He told Zhu Youtang, the prince of Longqian East Palace: "I am a good minister, and I am far from a villain. This is why the Han Dynasty was prosperous before."

This is what Emperor Hongzhi did after he ascended the throne.Daming finally showed signs of prosperity.This made him extremely pleased.

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

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

He said to himself: "The waves behind the Yangtze River drive the waves ahead. May each generation be stronger than the last generation."

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

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

Not to be outdone, Wang Shu said, "Bitch, I beat you lightly! When I was in Yunnan, I beat you until you couldn't get out of bed for half a month. You should be elated when I retire."

Qian Neng is a man of temperament, he couldn't hold back for a moment, and even started to cry "uuuuuuuuuuuuuu".

Wang Shu sighed: "Hey. You bitch, serve the emperor well in the palace and take care of the factory guards. Write to me, the old bastard, when you have time."

"Stop crying and acting like a little girl. If others look at you, they will say that you are neither male nor female."

Qian Neng broke his tears into a smile: "I'm not a man or a woman in the first place, so I'm afraid others will say it?"

Turning his head, Wang Shu looked at Ma Wensheng again: "Brother Ma, in my resignation letter, I recommended you to take over as Minister of the Ministry of Officials. There should be a decree in the next few days."

"You have to take good care of the officials for the emperor. The selection of officials is related to the foundation of the society."

Ma Wensheng cupped his hands: "Don't worry. I will definitely take you as a role model and do my best."

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

"The emperor governing the country not only needs the right sword of the emperor like me and Ma Wensheng, but also needs a dagger like yours that can be hidden in the 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: "The common people live!"

Chang Feng said: "The next official will keep the prince's teachings in mind!"

Qian Neng complained: "The emperor didn't give you an imperial edict to keep your original salary."

Wang Shu said with a smile: "I have demoted, demoted, and dismissed so many mediocre officials for the emperor in the past six years. I must let them and those behind them vent their anger."

"The emperor didn't give me the imperial edict and original salary to appease those people."

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

"Thousands of people, I'm going! For the sake of the common people, I don't even want my life. How can I care about mere edicts and original salary?"

After finishing speaking, Wang Shu cupped his hands and said to the people who came to bid farewell: "Everyone, it is necessary to send you off for thousands of miles. There is no banquet in the world that lasts forever!"

"This return to Shaanxi is the return of leaves to their roots. It is a good beginning and a good end."

"May you all fulfill your duties in Beijing and assist Mingjun. Create a scene of peace for all generations, the people will live and work in peace and contentment, and the Ming Dynasty will prosper for thousands of years!"

After speaking, Wang Shu boarded the carriage.

Qian Neng shouted: "My lord, let's go!"

More than 200 officials shouted in unison: "Your Majesty, let's go!"

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

The era belonging to Wang Shu is over.Among the three gentlemen of Hongzhi, only two remained in the court.

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

In the history books, good people usually do not get rewarded.

Wang Shu is an exception.

He returned to his hometown to rest in peace, and he lost all his illnesses.He lived to Zhengde for three years and died of no illness at the age of 93.

Emperor Zhengde posthumously presented Zuozhu Kingdom and Grand Master with the posthumous title of "Duanyi".

According to the posthumous posthumous law, Duan is called Duan if he observes propriety and sticks to righteousness;

To be able to bring peace to the people is called Yi; to protect the community is called Yi;

Wang Shu is a good man and a good official
