Chapter 15 Close the Door and Release the Dogs

After discussing with Wang An how much money he had on hand, Zhu Youxiao was thinking about which people were rich.

That night, a group of people gathered at Yang Lian's residence. These people were seated separately as guests and hosts, but their eyes were all focused on Sun Shenxing, the Minister of Rites.

"Master Sun, I don't know why you called everyone here this time. You can talk about it now!" Liu Yishuo said when he saw that everyone was here.

"Okay! Let me tell you, I submitted a memorial a few days ago, which was written by Wei Zhongxian, the admiral of the East Factory. After the memorial was submitted, it should have been in the hands of His Majesty, but for some reason there is still no news.

." Sun Shen stopped talking in jargon at this point, because he believed that these people could understand what he said.

"I wonder what the crime was?" Someone asked impatiently.

"Collaborating with treacherous people, harming the country and the people. Blocking the way of speech and deceiving saints." As soon as Sun Shenxing said these words, there was a sudden silence in the hall, and you could hear a needle drop.

"I wonder what Mr. Sun thinks of doing this? There are no outsiders here, so you might as well tell me." Yang Lian gently put down the teacup in his hand and said slowly, the expression on his face not changing at all.

No one could tell what the lord was thinking.

"Everyone here is here for the sake of our country, our country, and the world. How can we just sit back and watch a rat like Wei Zhongxian stay in the inner court and let him deceive the saints?" Sun Shen's words were concise and concise, but also somewhat incomprehensible.

But everyone present understood it. At this time, the Donglin Party had become more powerful. They could remove Wei Zhongxian, the admiral of the Dongchang, and replace him with someone of their own or someone who was leaning toward them, such as Wang An, who was deeply trusted by the emperor.

Great eunuch.

"When traitors are in power, it is our duty to do so. I also submitted a memorial, but like Mr. Sun's, there has been no news."

As the words fell, the room suddenly became lively. It seemed that Wei Zhongxian was the worst eunuch in the world. If he didn't get rid of him, he wouldn't be able to make the people angry, and if he didn't kill him, he wouldn't be able to uphold the law of the country.

They didn't know that just as they were discussing how to unseat Wei Zhongxian, Wei Zhongxian was already preparing to cause trouble first.

It was night, after Zhu Youxiao had been busy in the carpenter's studio for a day, he returned to his bedroom. He was drinking some seventh-order or some snail tea that Chen Hongxin had found, reading a book and soaking his feet. It was a very leisurely day. But it was just leisurely.

After a while, there was a knock on the door.

"Your Majesty, Wei Zhongxian would like to see you." As one of the emperor's most trusted eunuchs, Chen Hong naturally knew about his emperor's arrangements. Since Wei Zhongxian is here, it means that something is going on.

"Let him come in." A glimmer of light flashed in Zhu Youxiao's eyes. What should come will always come. No, Wei Zhongxian should be ready to bite.

The maids of Qianqing Palace were very discerning and quickly left after packing up the foot bath buckets.

As soon as Wei Zhongxian entered the door, he gave a big salute. He lay on the ground and said carefully: "Your Majesty, long live long live, long live, long live. This slave who disturbed your Majesty deserves death."

"Get up!" Zhu Youxiao put the teacup on the table and looked at Wei Zhongxian quietly.

After being stunned for a moment, Wei Zhongxian felt a chill rise from the bottom of his heart. The emperor's attitude made him not know what to say.

However, Wei Zhongxian reacted quickly, kowtowed and said: "Your Majesty, Yao Zongwen has secret correspondence with Liaodong in private, and the transactions involve huge amounts of money. I am suspicious..."

"It's okay to just say it." Zhu Youxiao waved his hand. This was what he had expected.

"Yao Zongwen, the head of the Ministry of War, actually participated in the impeachment of Xiong Tingbi for another reason." Wei Zhongxian said loudly, and he couldn't help but sneer in his heart: I don't care about you Yao Zongwen impeaching Xiong Tingbi, but if you want to impeach me and make all my years of hard work come to nothing, then I

I will definitely kill you.

Zhu Youxiao looked at Wei Zhongxian with increasingly weird eyes: "Is there such a thing? It seems that this person who seems to be dedicated to the public may not really be like this, so let's check it out!"

"The factory ministers are the emperor's domestic slaves, and the servants must live up to the emperor's trust and handle the matter well!" Wei Zhongxian said firmly.

Although the matter is a bit difficult, this is what Dongchang does. If this doesn't work, what else can Dongchang do? Besides, as long as the emperor lets the investigation be carried out, it will definitely be found out. Wei Zhongxian was furious in his heart.

The Straw Hat Hutong in the capital is a place that everyone knows. It is the residence of most officials in the capital. Although the houses are not very good, it is known as a noble place.

At this time, a group of Dongchang fans came to the intersection, and the group stopped aggressively at the gate of a mansion.

When passers-by saw Dongchang's fans, they all avoided him and stayed far away to watch the excitement.

A slightly fat leader walked out of the queue, walked to the door, and gently knocked on the door knocker.

"Yao Mansion... There are not many officials with the surname Yao in this court!"

"The person in this Straw Hat Alley should be Mr. Yao Zongwen, the director of the Ministry of War!" In a restaurant not far away, some people who were watching the excitement and did not think it was a big deal were discussing.

The person in charge of the Ministry of War, Yao Zongwen, was very clear to the senior officials in the capital officialdom. He was a man of great ambition and talent, and was greedy. He once patrolled Liaodong because Fang Congzhe, the chief minister of the cabinet, favored him. However, Yao Zongwen had no knowledge of military affairs and was involved in corruption and extortion.

For this reason, Xiong Tingbi couldn't stand it, so he ruthlessly participated in one of his books, thus offending the petty Master Yao. As a result, he was impeached and even resigned from office and returned to his hometown.

"Today, these Dongchang gangsters are coming fiercely, and they are not a good person! I wonder who Master Yao has offended again!" Someone said in confusion.

The fat man waited for a long time before the door of Yao Mansion was opened just a crack. An old housekeeper carefully poked his head out and said to please: "My lords, I have been waiting for a long time. I wonder what's going on..."

Before the old housekeeper finished speaking, the fat man waved his hand impatiently, and several people immediately pushed open the door regardless of the old housekeeper's objections.

A group of people swarmed in, making the Yao Mansion go crazy.

Fanzi, who was following Fat Tou Tou, left a person at the end of the team after Fat Tou Tou had walked five steps. After a while, the entire yard became a five-step post.

"Where is Yao Zongwen?" Fatty and others searched around but couldn't find Yao Zongwen. They grabbed the old housekeeper who was about to run away and asked loudly.

The old housekeeper had been frightened by them for a long time, but he still did not want to reveal the whereabouts of his master. He just bit his lip tremblingly.

Seeing that the fat man could not find out the whereabouts of Yao Zongwen, the fat man was so angry that he threw the old housekeeper to the ground in the front hall and shouted: "Tie him up." A wave of cold air came, so everyone should wear more clothes to keep warm. There is no heating in the south.
