Chapter 371 "On the Eunuch's Self-cultivation"

Sun Chengzong's complexion did not change at all, but the sudden stop of the brush in his hand revealed his extremely restless heart.

However, he still insisted on finishing the "Confucius Temple Monument", which was coming to the end, and then put the pen on the grid, heaved a sigh of relief, and looked at the butler who was standing with his hands down.

"When did it happen?"

"Half an hour ago."

"finally come."

Sun Chengzong smiled wryly.

If he were asked to name the most regrettable decision he made over the years, it would definitely be one of the decisions he made for Yuan Chonghuan.

If Jin Yiwei really has the evidence of Yuan Chonghuan's crimes, then no one will be able to save him.

"Prepare the sedan chair."

After quietly contemplating for a while, Sun Chengzong got up and walked out.

As soon as he left the door of the study, he saw Sun who hurried in from the outside.

"Father! Are you going out?"

Sun Chengzong, who stopped in his tracks, nodded.

"But you want to run for Yuan Chonghuan!?"

Sun Chengzong didn't speak, but Sun already knew that he had guessed right.

"Father! You can't go! He Yuan Chonghuan committed crimes and abused his power. Since Jin Yiwei has arrested him, he must have real evidence. If you run around for him at this time, wouldn't it be true!?"

"And then?" Sun Chengzong asked calmly. "Should I stay behind closed doors so I can stay out of it?
Can this help?
When others mention Yuan Chonghuan, they all know that he has a teacher named Sun Chengzong.This time, I also begged him from His Majesty for the position of Deputy Commissioner of Tax Reform.

Since Jin Yiwei was able to come to arrest people, it must have been approved by His Majesty.I must immediately go to the palace to face the saint and give His Majesty an explanation. "

After finishing speaking, he ignored Sun who was hesitant to speak, and walked out again.

When he arrived at the door, the housekeeper had already prepared the sedan chair, and Sun Chengzong got into the sedan chair and walked towards the Forbidden City.

At this time, everyone in Beijing had already heard the news of Yuan Chonghuan's arrest.

Those who had a better relationship with him sighed sadly, but those who had a bad relationship with him had already begun to gloat.

Soon, Sun Chengzong came outside the palace. After passing the report, he followed an eunuch to the Qianqing Palace and met Zhu Youjian.

"Chen, Sun Chengzong kowtows to His Majesty!"

As soon as they met, Sun Chengzong gave a big gift, knelt down on the ground, and shouted loudly.

But unlike when Zhu Youjian summoned him in the past, this time he did not order anyone to come forward to support him and give him a seat.

Sun Chengzong's heart sank into the abyss in an instant, and he felt a chill down his spine.

"Get up."

After a while, he heard Zhu Youjian's faint voice coming from his ear.

Sun Chengzong stood up silently, stood with his head down, waiting for Zhu Youjian to ask questions.

"Why did Sun Qing enter the palace this time?"

"Your Majesty. I heard that Jin Yiwei captured Yuan Chonghuan, and this is why I came here." No mood swings could be heard from Zhu Youjian's words, but Sun Chengzong gritted his teeth and expressed his intention.

"Oh? What happened to him? You know?"

"I, I have heard a little bit about it."

"Have you heard a little bit? He is a student of You. What has he done that you, the teacher, don't know? If you hadn't strongly recommended him back then, would he have been able to recover? Now it's better, just a little bit of hearing and that's it." Listened After Sun Chengzong's words, Zhu Youjian's tone became cold.

"I tell you clearly, I don't like Yuan Chonghuan. It's fine if he can do things for me honestly, and I'm not hesitating to give him a fortune, but do you know what he did in the position of deputy commissioner of tax reform? ? Do you know how much money he took home in this position?"

"I don't know! Please forgive me, Your Majesty!"

"Then take a good look! Come, give me a seat!" Zhu Youjian threw Yuan Chonghuan's indictment presented by Tian Ergeng to Sun Chengzong.Then someone moved a chair and put it behind Sun Chengzong.

Ugh.

Looking at Sun Chengzong, who was over seventy years old and had gray hair, Zhu Youjian couldn't help but sigh.

He really didn't expect Yuan Chonghuan to do such a bad thing. In the short period of time he served as the deputy commissioner of tax reform, he had already harvested more than 8 taels of silver, more than 20 large and small shops, and three houses in the capital.In terms of ability to absorb money, it is much stronger than those vassal kings.

Sun Chengzong carefully read Yuan Chonghuan's crimes with trembling hands, with mixed feelings in his heart.

He thought that Yuan Chonghuan's selfishness was a bit serious, but he didn't expect him to be so insane.

It is true that all of this has nothing to do with him, but it is also inseparable from his decentralization and excessive trust.I am indeed to blame.

Thinking of my fame in my first life, but it will be ruined in one day when I grow old.

"Your Majesty! I, I am woo~" Sun Chengzong knelt on the ground and wanted to say something, but in the end he started to cry.

Yuan Chonghuan was wrong, but was he right?
"I ask you to resign and return to your hometown, and end up with the rest of your life."

"Resign? If you make a mistake and don't know how to repent, but only know how to escape, wouldn't you be a coward? Yuan Chonghuan, an official, can't do it. You are his teacher. You will bear the mistakes he made. I want you to replace the tax reform commissioner. The power of Yuan Chonghuan has been put into practice! Where Yuan Chonghuan has traveled and who has been checked, you have to go through it from beginning to end!"

Zhu Youjian did not agree to Sun Chengzong's resignation.

To be honest, he relented.

Thinking of his five sons, six grandsons, two nephews, eight grandnephews, and more than a hundred members of his grandson's family who died fighting for the city, Zhu Youjian still couldn't bear him to die at the end of the year. fate.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Sun Chengzong, who is old and mature, guessed Zhu Youjian's intention in an instant, and this is an opportunity for His Majesty to make up for him.

"Let's go back."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Sun Chengzong got up from the ground in response, and retreated slowly.

After a long time, Zhu Youjian sighed, and said to Wang Chengen who was beside him:
"Wang Banban, am I being too soft-hearted?"

"Long live kindness is the blessing of the people of the world." Wang Chengen said with a smile. "Besides, asking Sun Gaoyang to make up for Yuan Chonghuan's mistakes is similar to repaying father's debts. Sun Gaoyang is a great talent. Given time, the situation will definitely be different."

"So, this step, I'm on the right track?" Zhu Youjian was a little surprised, can this help the emperor come back?

"Slaves dare not speak rashly, but Long Live is always right."

Yes, Wang Banban, let's publish a book.It's called "On the Self-Cultivation of Eunuchs", and it can at least sell well in Suning.

Zhu Youjian didn't dwell on this topic, and asked Wang Chengen to arrange for someone to call Tian Ergeng.

"How is Yuan Chonghuan?"

"Return to Your Majesty, your mouth is very hard."

"Stubborn! Let him stay in the imperial prison, and he will be locked up for ten days and half a month." Zhu Youjian curled his lips.The knife is on the neck, and he is still stubborn.

"Yes! Your Majesty!"

"The people on the list who bribed Yuan Chonghuan were also arrested, and all of them will be sent to Luzon to open up wasteland."

"Yes! Your Majesty!"
