little emperor of Ming Dynasty
Chapter 52 Taiping
Chapter 52 Taiping
Zheng Guotai, who has always been able to sit but never stand, and can lie down but never sits, has completely lost his former leisurely pace, pacing back and forth non-stop with fat all over his body, with an obviously irritable and restless expression on his face.
"My lord, Mr. Gu has been away for so long and hasn't come back. Is there something wrong?" Li Guan, a Fujian official who made him dizzy, leaned forward.
"Ask me, shall I ask your old lady to go?" It stands to reason that Fujian Qianshi is also a fourth rank, and is of the same rank as Zheng Guotai's five city soldiers and horse officers, but Li Guan is as honest as a mouse in front of Zheng Guotai. He killed the cat, and when he yelled, he immediately stopped talking, not daring to squeak again.
Quiet is quiet, but the irritability in Zheng Guotai's heart has not diminished in the slightest.The main reason that annoyed him was Gu Xiancheng!Shen Shixing, a veteran of the three dynasties, is unmatched in terms of prestige and seniority. Thinking about Zhang Juzheng, who was so domineering and intolerant back then, Shen Shixing could do well under his subordinates. Gu Xiancheng, you alone, can bring down such a great god?
Although the Zheng family already had some influence in the court, it was far from being able to confront Shen Shixing head-on.Zheng Guotai wasn't afraid that something would happen to Gu Xiancheng. Whether he died or not had nothing to do with the old Zheng's family, but if he got involved because of him, it would be a big deal.
"Master Gu is back!" The voice fell, and a servant at the door opened the curtain. Gu Xiancheng came in with a chill in his body. He looked up and saw Zheng Guotai and Li Wan. He was slightly startled and then understood.
"Da Gu, you're back, we're all dying of anxiety."
Li Wan on the side nodded again and again to show that he was in the same mood as Zheng Guotai.Gu Xiancheng ignored the two of them, took off his cloak, and the servant held hot water, cleaned his face and hands, and then called them to sit down.
"The brochure... Pass it up, what should I say?" Zheng Guotai looked at Gu Xiancheng with a gloomy expression, and asked for the result straight to the point.Gu Xiancheng smiled slightly, took out something from his sleeve and handed it to Zheng Guotai, picked up the tea at hand, and drank half of it in one go.
It’s okay if you let Zheng Guotai read a little picture album, little pornography or something, but if you let him read the scriptures, it’s better to kill him.He handed it to Li Wan who was staring at him casually, and said impatiently: "Who can understand your sour and sour things, Li Wan, you should read it."
Li Wan couldn't wait to take it over and take a look, but it was a copybook, and she was taken aback for a moment.Gu Xiancheng smiled meaningfully, "Li De, let's talk after reading." Li Wan nodded, and started watching by the candlelight beside him.
"Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful..." Li Wan watched it over and over again, and then danced and praised it endlessly.Zheng Guotai couldn't understand his crazy appearance, so he sneered, "Master Li likes cats so much, I will send ten or eight cats to your house later, how about letting you meow enough every day?"
When a scholar meets a soldier, he can't explain why.Li Wan and Gu Xiancheng looked at each other and smiled wryly, they really had nothing to do with this idiot.
Gu Xiancheng naturally ignored him and just drank his tea with his head down.But Li Wan didn't dare to be negligent, and said with a smile: "My lord Zheng doesn't know something. This impeachment of Shen Shixing's domineering power, suppression of officials, and misuse of government and political chaos are several major crimes. He really deserves the famous Tang Xianzu. Tsk tsk, Kechen Sparse? Harsh ministers are sparse! This memorial is sharp and written like a knife, enough to expose the skin and see the bones, and it is full of joy."
Tang Xianzu, who wrote the excerpt from Li Wan's mouth, is not a simple person. At the age of 40 this year, he has become famous all over the world as early as 30 years ago.He was admitted to Jinshi twice, but he was stumbled because he offended Zhang Juzheng. He didn't get Jinshi until ten years later.Perhaps in response to that sentence, those who are talented must be proud, Mr. Tang, who doesn't even pay attention to Zhang Juzheng, is naturally not too cold about Shen Shixing, who is currently in power.
Shen Shixing loves talents, but he can't hold back his hot face and keeps sticking to his cold ass, so Mr. Tang's end is predictable. Shen Shixing is kind, and he didn't make it too difficult for him, so he was given an errand in Nanjing's etiquette department.It was at that time that Tang Xianzu met Ye Xianggao who was also sitting on the bench in Nanjing.
This time when Shen Shixing was impeached, the first person Ye Xianggao thought of was Tang Xianzu.Facts have proved that Ye Xianggao was not mistaken, and Tang Xianzu's opening shot was extremely successful and beautiful.
When Zheng Guotai heard that it was the impeachment of Shen Shixing, he immediately regained his spirits, and asked repeatedly: "Da Gu, tell me quickly, how did the Holy Majesty approve of this paper? What does that old Shen guy say?"
Since Zheng Guotai's two big eyeballs are about to burst out of their sockets, Gu Xiancheng no longer plays tricks, "The emperor has decreed that Tang Xianzu will be assigned to Guangdong Xuwen as a canonist from now on." In one sentence, the cloud is light and the wave does not take away a cloud ...
"What?" Looking at Gu Xiancheng's proud appearance, Zheng Guotai and Li Wan had the illusion that maybe this trick could really bring down Shen Shixing?
But after surprising them both, it turned out to be this result!You must know that in the Ming Dynasty, Xuwen, Guangdong was still an uncivilized and barbaric place, and Japanese pirates would make troubles from time to time, and what could be sent there was basically the same as the death penalty.
Shen Shixing was safe and sound, and Tang Xianzu was dispatched to Guangdong, which showed that Shen Shixing was still extremely prosperous in the emperor's heart.According to Shen Shixing's ability, once he finds out who used Lao Tang as a gunman, the consequences will be disastrous.
Zheng Guotai, who was extremely frustrated, fell on the chair hesitantly, his body was shaking with fat and his body was weak, and his head had been sweating for some time.Don't look at Shen Shixing, who doesn't look like a mountain or dew, may stand in the court for decades. For those who dare to blackmail themselves, their methods are cruel and old-fashioned, which is definitely beyond the imagination of ordinary people.
"You won't die if you beat a snake, you will be bitten by it. Da Gu, I didn't blame you. What you and Xiao Ye did this time were reckless!"
Gu Xiancheng ignored the idiot's complaints, "Shoucheng, let me ask you, do you know how the Holy Majesty dealt with the impeachment of Shen Shixing's officials and ministers before?"
Zheng Guotai, who was in a panic, still had the heart to think about these things, and besides, he didn't pay attention to them at all, but Li Wan next to him seemed to understand.
"Since Li Zhi, Jiang Dongzhi, and Yang Keli were assigned to impeach Shen Shixing, as long as Shen Shixing was involved, all impeachers, whether they were officials or ministers, would not end well. The Holy Majesty is very respectful to Shen Shixing's family. It can be called the crown of the ministers."
"Since entering the cabinet in the tenth year of Wanli, although Shen Shixing has been impeached many times, His Majesty is not unaware of the minor disturbances, pretending to be deaf and dumb, and severe disturbances, either dead or exiled! This time Tang Xianzu was dispatched, but It was expected, and the point is that this zhezi sage sent it to Shen Shixing's residence!"
"Sir, do you mean that the emperor intends to warn Shen Shixing?" Li Wan was the first to come to his senses, surprised and delighted.Immediately, Zheng Guotai's eyes also shone. "Da Gu, is that really the case?"
"What Lide said, although it is not in the middle, it is not far away. Shen Rumo's actions have already echoed the old saying. It is still against the sky to do evil, and you can't live with your own evil! His sacred heart has been lost, and the catastrophe is not far away."
This assertion is really surprising. Li Wan and Zheng Guotai looked at each other, and did not say a word for a long time. Finally, Li Wan whispered: "Sir, what are we going to do right now?"
Looking at the steaming small tea stove in the corner, Gu Xiancheng was full of meaning, "Lide, look, the tea has gradually opened, what we need to do now is to add a handful of firewood..."
Looking blankly at the spout that was spouting water, and then at the meaningful smile on the corner of Gu Xiancheng's mouth, Li Wan felt a chill in his heart, "Sir, I understand..."
At this moment, Lin Fu, the steward of Zheng's mansion, hurried in with the curtain drawn up, greeted the adults first, and then whispered something into Zheng Guotai's ear. Zheng Guotai was upset, so he frowned and asked Gu Xiancheng, "A few days ago, Luo Dayu came to bother him because of that messy thing at home. Now, what is this guy doing here?"
At this moment, Gu Xiancheng's thoughts have already drifted far away. A few days ago, he received a letter from the old man's close pigeon. The enemy in front of him is not Shen Shixing, nor Wang Xijue, but the eldest son of the emperor, Zhu Changluo!
He dared not disrespect the old man's orders, but Zhu Changluo, who was only seven years old, was really more difficult to deal with than Shen Shixing and Wang Xijue?Gu Xiancheng didn't believe it, but what he couldn't believe was the old man's foresight. At least up to now, the old man's instructions have never been missed.
Gu Xiancheng suddenly became very interested in the eldest son of the emperor who was about to return. What kind of person would he be?
On the day when Tang Xianzu packed up his things and set foot on Xuwen, Guangdong, Li Wan's account of the Fujian incident once again aimed his guns at Shen Shixing. Compared with Tang Xianzu, Li Wan used harsher words this time, and impeached Shen Shixing for ten crimes.Wanli was not too polite, he dismissed Li Wan and went home, and sent the book to Shenfu as usual.
Shen Shixing remained silent, and handed over the chapter on avoiding suspicion the next day, and no longer went to court to govern.For the first time, Wanli did not refute it. All of a sudden, the court was turbulent and the atmosphere was strange.
At this time, Zhu Changluo, who was thousands of miles away in Dageng, Jiangxi, did not realize that history had changed its original track at all. These things that originally happened in the 19th year of Wanli were actually brought forward by three years, and he wanted to keep Shen Shixing, Now in a precarious and precarious situation.
The place where Zhu Changluo and Ye He are now is very strange, a small dark room with a black plaque on the door, with three large characters written on it, Taipingzhuang.
Taiping Village is very peaceful, because no one dares to come.Let the janitor open the door, a gloomy cold air blows towards the face, and several coffins with unsealed nails appear neatly in front of them.
Ye He glanced at him, teasingly said: "Which one of them are you going to talk to?"
Zhu Changluo tightened his clothes and smiled, while the magistrate Lu behind him was already gagging and hiccupping. Zhu Changluo was already annoyed, and it made him even more annoyed, "Master Lu, you don't have to follow, leave me as Master Jin , you can take care of yourself."
County Magistrate Lu seemed to be pardoned, he didn't even say a word of politeness, and ran away without a trace. Judging from his physical skills, he was not inferior to a first-class master like Ye He.Zhu Changluo was astonished, and Ye He looked at each other, and they both laughed.
The yamen servants at the side opened the coffin. It had been a month since Mo Lanxin died in the coffin. Fortunately, at the end of winter and the cold spring, although there had been some corpse changes, he could finally pack it up. If another month passed and the weather warmed, the corpse Deep rot, even if you want to check at that time, you can't find anything.
The clan's name is Jin Jiu. Three generations of his ancestors have worked in this industry with a pestle. He has rich experience. After examining the corpse carefully and quietly, he came up to report respectfully.
"My lord, after careful inspection, the little one's limbs are intact, and there are no injuries on the whole body. Just in case, the little one has even carefully checked the hair. At first glance, it seems that he died of a sudden illness."
Zhu Changluo frowned, "Uncle Jin, some injuries don't have to be superficial, such as death from poisoning?"
Jin Jiu shook his head, and answered brightly, "If poisoned, the nails and teeth will definitely change color after twelve hours. Please check it out. But..."
As always, I would like to thank Jiang Zhong for his support, and also thank Ye Tianqi and Lonely City Ranger for their encouragement~~~ Thank you Tang Feng and Zheng Jin for their rewards.Today, I would like to recommend a military history book "Shooting World". There are treasures to be had, beautiful faces to accompany, and devils to kill.
