I am the carpenter king

() Tomorrow is the day when Emperor Apocalypse will go to the early court. The ministers are all a little nervous at this moment. Some are worried about Xiong Tingbi, some are worried about being implicated, and some are simply gloating. Of course, there are also people who want to fish in troubled waters.It's just that whether these people's ideas can be realized depends on the attitude of one person, that is Emperor Tianqi.

Emperor Apocalypse was also hesitating at this time, and at this point in time, he was at a loss as to what to do!Although he knew that what Dongchang and Jinyiwei found out was true, it was difficult to convince those ministers, let alone the censor.As long as it was found out by Jin Yiwei of the East Factory, these people would probably stand up and oppose it without asking whether it was right or wrong.

What I want to think about now is a way to get the best of both worlds, firstly, Xiong Tingbi cannot be wronged, and secondly, those people cannot be spared.

"Your Majesty, Luo Sigong, the commander of Jinyiwei, is here." Just as Emperor Tianqi was thinking hard, a young eunuch walked in quickly and said to Emperor Tianqi.

"Let him in!" Rubbing his forehead, Emperor Tianqi felt a little tired, but he could only force himself to refresh himself.

Led by a young eunuch, Luo Sigong strode in, gently lifted up his clothes, knelt down facing the Emperor Tianqi, and said loudly: "Commander Luo Sigong of the Jinyiwei will visit my emperor, long live my emperor Long live."

Seeing Luo Sigong's demeanor, Emperor Tianqi was also inspired, his spirit was pretty good, he nodded in satisfaction, Emperor Tianqi smiled and said: "Aiqing's spirit is good, it seems that there is some happy event! Isn't it? Take another wife and concubine?"

Hearing Emperor Tianqi's teasing words, Luo Sigong was a little embarrassed immediately, and his face was also a little embarrassed, and he blushed a little and said: "Your Majesty is joking."

Emperor Tianqi burst out laughing, Luo Sigong, the commander of Jinyiwei, has no hobbies on weekdays, except for beauty.However, there is no such thing as robbing civilian women. Most of them are bought back or married by Ming media, which is not a big deal in this era.

It seemed that he was in a good mood, and Emperor Tianqi's expression also improved a lot. He said to the little eunuch beside him, "Go and get a stool for Mr. Luo", then turned his eyes to Luo Sigong, and said softly, "Get up! You come to find me what's the matter?"

Luo Sigong did not speak, but glanced at the main hall, and gave Emperor Tianqi a wink.

"You all go down!" Emperor Tianqi didn't speak, and Chen Hong drove all the eunuchs and maids out, and wanted to take them out.

"Chen Hong, you stay!" Emperor Tianqi didn't let him go, and stopped him when he was about to go out.

Luo Sigong didn't dare to say anything, this Eunuch Chen Hong didn't know what skills he had, and he was very favored in front of this Emperor Tianqi.It is already very difficult for him to deal with a Wei Dynasty. If Chen Hong comes again, Luo Sigong feels that he will definitely not be able to bear it.

"Is there something to say!" Standing up slowly, exercising his muscles and bones, Emperor Tianqi has been feeling a little uncomfortable these days, and he has to exercise like this every once in a while.

Suppressing his excitement, Luo Sigong tried not to make his voice sound strange, and said with a light sigh of relief: "Your Majesty, I found some news yesterday, and there is also news from Liaodong!"

"Oh, Jin Yiwei's efficiency is really good. Aiqing has done a good job with this errand, and I will reward you." Emperor Tianqi's mood immediately improved a lot. This news came very timely. I hope that I can have some feedback on tomorrow's affairs. help.

Luo Sigong was delighted when he heard Emperor Tianqi's words, but he didn't show the slightest expression on his face, but smiled and said: "These are the achievements of His Majesty's planning and strategizing, so what is the contribution of the ministers?"

"Okay, let's talk about things! Don't say these self-effacing and flattering words." Emperor Tianqi smiled softly. I don't know if it's because there are clues to the matter, or Luo Sigong's flattery. Emperor Tianqi is always in a very good mood now .

"Yes, Jin Yiwei's spies in Fengyue Tower got the news yesterday that someone has come to Fengyue Tower." Luo Sigong's expression was a little dignified, but he was a little excited, and his emotions seemed complicated.

As for Emperor Tianqi, he didn't think there was anything wrong, because he had never heard of Fengyuelou. Is this a famous brothel in the capital?

"Your Majesty, Fengyuelou is a restaurant in the capital. It's just that this restaurant is not open to the public. It's a place for Donglin party members to meet and chat. According to them, it's for making friends. Usually there are not many people, but every time There will be a lot of scholars gathered there for the big exam." Seeing that Emperor Tianqi didn't know why, Chen Hong hurriedly said.At this time, he was in charge of all the information about the parties, and he memorized these things as much as possible, while answering Emperor Tianqi's questions at any time.After so many years in the palace, this old eunuch also knows how to be a favored eunuch.

Nodding slightly, it turned out to be such a place, which can be said to be a base of the Donglin Party in the capital!It is very convenient whether it is holding a party or wooing exam candidates.

"When was this Fengyue Tower built?" Emperor Tianqi's face was very solemn, these people are not small in courage!I really thought that the emperor didn't dare to raid the house, no wonder Wei Zhongxian arrested and killed all these people in history!

"Returning to Your Majesty, it was seven years ago. At that time, Ye Xianggao was the chief assistant of the cabinet." Luo Sigong said before Chen Hong could speak.

Gently nodding his head, Emperor Tianqi's face became more solemn, and he said to Chen Hong behind him, "What is the status of this Ye Xianggao in the Donglin Party?"

After thinking about Ye Xianggao's information in his mind, Chen Hong said, "Ye Xianggao is an old man of the Donglin Party. The tax is well-known all over the world, and has written more than 100 times, advocating the abolition of the mining tax."

Hearing this, Emperor Tianqi understood that this Ye Xianggao had a high status in the Donglin Party and had a very wide network of contacts.He once opposed the mining tax, which shows that he is a typical Donglin Party member. He speaks very well, but in action he defends the interests of those people.

No matter how capable this person is, Emperor Apocalypse will not reuse him, and the objection to the mining tax will not work.Because the Emperor Apocalypse also needs to collect this tax, these people who open the mines are all rich people, and it’s incredible that these people don’t pay the tax.Emperor Tianqi even thought about confiscating the homes of these people, confiscating all their assets, and nationalizing all the mines, which of course belonged to Emperor Tianqi himself.
