Chapter 792 Accidental request
Wang Fulin was very glad that he sent five new censors under his command. Although he had different tempers and was not so easy to teach at first, he was not a nerd who knew nothing except the eight-legged essays, and could not even distinguish between history. So, when they gradually became familiar with their work, the officials of Guangdong Dao all tried their best and everything was on the right track. He, the censor in the Dao, became a little more leisurely. So he was interested in going to the Gaiku to review the disaster reports and corresponding disaster relief measures in various places over the past three years, intending to pick up the tricks from this.
Guangdong Dao said that it only governs Guangdong, Yingtian Prefecture, Zhili Yanqing Prefecture and some garrisons, but in addition, officials from all over the world are under supervision, and there is no limit to impeachment. If you want to pick the assassination of officials from Sichuan or Yunnan and Guizhou, as long as there is news, it is not bad. Although he is more willing to do something down-to-earth, he found those thankless but not famous jobs for the newcomers. But now, the evaluation of Kedao is almost always aimed at impeaching powerful officials. He, who is not very happy to criticize others, decided to actually find a few corrupt officials.
At this moment, the target he found was nothing else, Yingtian Mansion. Although he killed You Qi, the eunuch Meng Fang of Nanjing was still in office. As a result of Zhang Feng's competition with him, Pan Erye, who was still in the military commander of Nanjing Zhongcheng, had already sent it over through the escort agency. Although Zhang Feng had already regained the situation, the current Governor Yingtian and the Censor of the Southern Zhili were both guys who were calm and composed. They were not allowed to do anything for a while. Hui'an Piaohao and Ningsheng Yinzhuang supported it a little hard, and even Linhuai Marquis Li Yangong had quite a complaint. Therefore, after Meng Fang's relationship with Nanjing was sorted out, Wang Fulin decided to take action.
But it is really difficult for him to take action personally. Who is more suitable to go to Guangdong?
Just as Wang Fulin wrote the name Meng Fang on paper, listing the man's bad deeds and colluding with some scum civil servants. While he was pondering, Zheng Yougui suddenly hurried into the house. He came to him without hesitation, bent down and almost pressed against his ear and whispered: "Master Zhang Dao, someone claimed to be your family member at the gate of the Censorate. If you have urgent matters, he felt that he didn't look like your family member."
Wang Fulin couldn't help but be surprised when he heard that something urgent happened at his home, but when he heard the second half, he immediately calmed down, glanced at Zheng Yougui and asked, "Why?"
"The person seems to be... the eunuch from the palace." Zheng Yougui said uncertainly, but Wang Fulin immediately stood up. He quickly added, "But I can't be sure, after all, that man was wearing the clothes of the long-term team, and his beard, and his voice was not loud like his father-in-law. I just felt that way. In the past, my distant relatives in my family had been exiled to be the boss, the rituals and stewards."
"I understand. You are rotten in your stomach, and no one is allowed to say anything." Wang Fulin told cautiously. Seeing that Zheng Yougui was lit up his head like a chicken pecking at rice, he did not hesitate anymore and immediately walked out.
When he left the gate of the Censorate, he swept around and was looking for the person Zheng Yougui was talking about, but he saw someone coming forward. Sure enough, he looked strange and had never seen him before. After the man hurriedly bowed, he lowered his head and said, "Young Master, something happened at home. This is not a place to talk. Let's go two steps away. How about Rong Xiao's detailed report?"
The gate of the Censorate, where the people came and went, was indeed not the place to speak. Wang Fulin saw the censor who was coming and going, and looked at him, and quietly followed the other party along the wall for more than ten steps. When he was sure that there was no one around, he asked lightly: "Tell me, pretend that my family came to the Censorate to look for me, what's wrong?"
"Wang Zhangdao, the youngest one is from Eunuch Zhang, the Sili Supervisor."
There were several eunuch Zhang in the Sili Supervisor, but Wang Fulin was not sure, but he was very sure that only eunuch Zhang Hong, who had dealt with him, not to mention that he had a deal with Zhang Hong's godson Zhang Feng in Nanjing. At this moment, his eyes suddenly became sharp, but he did not ask the other party if there was any evidence. After all, there was no reason for speaking, he did not believe that an old eunuch with such a seniority would not know. The next moment, he saw that the other party solemnly took out a silver seal from his arms and sent it directly to him.
Wang Fulin reached out to take it and looked at it, and immediately stayed there, because the silver seal was engraved with the four words "Correction and Reason"! As a glorious censor, he certainly understood the origin of these four words. This came from the Shangshu in the Five Classics of Poetry, Books, Books, Etiquette, Yi, Spring and Autumn, but in addition to the Shangshu, these four words left a rich and colorful stroke in history. Because during the Yongle period of Chengzu, Zhu Di gave the silver seal engraved with these four words to Jian Yi, Yang Shiqi, Yang Rong and Jin Youzi! The silver seal in front of him was rubbed as smooth as new. He was not sure whether it was new or old, but he knew that it should not be fake.
"This is something that was paid back after the death of Shangshu Jian. It has always been in the Silijian, and it is kept by the second eunuch of the Silijian." The visitor was not hesitant to explain a few more words, but his voice was very low. "For so many years, except for the Bingbi who passed on this thing from generation to generation, no one else knows it, so he can also be a testimony."
After receiving the silver seal from Wang Fulin, the person who came continued: "Eunuch Zhang asked me to bring a message. The emperor went to Xiyuan today to relax, but was framed by a villain, so the empress dowager was furious and summoned the Chief Auxiliary to the Qianqing Palace to let the Chief Auxiliary draw an edict on behalf of the Emperor. Eunuch Zhang knew that Wang Zhang could speak well in front of the Chief Auxiliary, so he asked for a request."
This is like being a god!
Wang Fulin wanted to criticize Zhang Hong in person, but he couldn't say that when facing this middle-aged eunuch who was serious about sending Zhang Hong's life, and at this moment, the other party said: "Eunuch Zhang said that if Wang Zhang hesitated, let me tell you all the whole story. After all, Wang Zhang Dao is involved in this matter and cannot be kept alone."
Hell, what does this have to do with me?
Although Wang Fulin complained repeatedly, when the message told the truth about the embarrassing story that Emperor Wanli had happened in the West Garden, he was stunned. Although he knew a certain piece of history and was very unfaithful to Zhu Yijun, the irresponsible Emperor Wanli, who was indifferent to Zhu Yijun, who was greedy and greedy for money and was irresponsible, and he wanted to stay away at all times, to be fair, in terms of this incident, the little emperor was indeed a bit unfair. Of course, that was just a little bit. After all, he could not think that Zhu Yijun really did nothing just because of a word from someone else, and Empress Dowager Li was simply overcorrecting it?
"Have you ever thought about me about this kind of secret in the palace, where did I know about it? How could I persuade the Prime Minister?"
"Eunuch Zhang naturally thought about this. Wang Zhandao just waited for a while in the Censorate. I think someone would come to the cabinet to spread you soon. The Empress Dowager was angry before and said that you should not enter the market to submit free books, so that the emperor was confused. The Chief Auxiliary always summoned him to face and admonish him."
Even though he felt that he was really a disaster, he was swearing that Zhang Juzheng would definitely call him over, and Wang Fulin still had to believe it. At least this time, before Emperor Wanli had done anything, he was disturbed by others in front of Empress Dowager Li, so he was mobilized by Empress Dowager Li to mobilize a lesson, and he was another unlucky person who was brought by him. However, thinking that he had already entered the sight of many powerful and important figures of the dynasty because of the previous series of events, the current adventure contact made him feel heavy.
"You, or Eunuch Zhang, do you know that I have more than a pair of eyes staring at me?" Although Wang Fulin knew that after asking this question, when the other party went back and recounted Zhang Hong, the second-ranked figure in the Silijian might make the second-ranked figure feel that he was unfaithful in serving the king and bargained, but he had to ask for such an answer. After all, it was related to his next aftermath.
"Of course I know, after all, Wang Zhangdao is now considered a celebrity."
The middle-aged eunuch seemed to have no idea that this sentence was easily heard of sarcastic ambiguity, and he smiled slightly: "It happened that the Censorate is close to the Censorate. Something happened to happen between the Ministry of Justice and Dali Temple, which should have attracted a lot of attention. I had just shown up at the door of Wang Zhandao's home as a visitor in Huizhou, and I came to the Censorate."
"I am an Eunuch Zhang's private minister. I serve as a department office at home. I have always been sending approval documents and copying documents for the response. I am always a little bit in the palace and the capital. Now I will delay on the road and ask others to bring news to Eunuch Zhang. As for me, I am afraid that I will bother you at Wang Zhang's house for one day and leave Beijing tomorrow. And someone will confirm the traces of the journey from Huizhou to the capital."
Sure enough, he is worthy of being the second person under Feng Bao, and he is simply invisible, but this also means that if he doesn't help this time, the old eunuch will immediately stand on the opposite side. If he agrees not to do anything, or even sells the other party to Zhang Juzheng and Feng Bao, then of course it is not bad, but Zhang Hong will really be so angry that he will come to him if he is just seeking medical treatment?
After all, he was quite innocent, but it was not worth taking the risk of Zhang Juzheng to try it. If the Prime Minister could really help persuade Empress Dowager Li to take back this kind of self-criticism, Emperor Wanli might not have held a grudge against Zhang Juzheng for the rest of his life, and might have some incense during the liquidation in the future!
But no matter what, he had no way out since Zhang Hong sent someone to find him!
When Wang Jiguang came to Wang Fulin to ask a question about Daming Rule, he learned that someone from Wang Fulin's family had called him out. He thoughtfully planned to go back to his and Wang Yanchen's room, but when he saw that Zheng Yougui was called to the official room by several officials, he glanced at the Zhengdao Censor's straight room, and suddenly had a thought of being a misleading person. So he glanced around and made sure that no one was paying attention to him, so he picked up the bamboo curtain and quickly crossed the threshold into the room.
Although I have been here many times in the past, this is the first time I visited this not-so-large house by myself. Even though the furnishings here are simple and even a little simple, Wang Jiguang still showed a bit of Yin Xian. In his opinion, Wang Fulin, who only took three years to do it, became a new Jinshi and became a censor in the Taoist censor after only one year. It was really an anomaly among the anomaly, and his luck was really good.
Seeing the large fir armrest chair in the middle, he couldn't help but step forward and rub the armrest. After he hesitating for a moment, he sat straight up. At that moment, he seemed to feel that he had also become the chief censor, majestic and said the same thing.
But immediately afterwards, he saw the paper that was spread flat on the table, and even the ink traces were not completely dry. He could not take his eyes away after just a glance. Because the name written on it was Meng Fang, the eunuch of Nanjing, and corresponding to it were very detailed bad deeds, or crimes. Realizing that Wang Fulin might impeach such a top eunuch, he felt his heart pounding, and then he couldn't help but lick his dry lips, and an uncontrollable thought burst out in his mind.
If... he could be ahead of Wang Fulin, what would happen? Even if Wang Fulin reported the report one day earlier, he would just follow him behind his butt and eat dust. Although the consequences he had to bear were that during the trial of the Censorship, Wang Fulin, the chief censor, would probably wear his little shoes, but so what, the other party could not find any evidence! Such great achievements as civil servants impeached eunuchs would make him famous immediately in the capital and even the world. Compared with this, the consequences he had to bear are still within the scope of being able to bear! If it was for the sake of stability, what would he do to the Censorate?
Just as he was almost determined, he suddenly heard a sound of talking from the outside, and was immediately startled. When he thought that if someone was found out that Wang Fulin was not there and he was in this room, he might be suspected, and he almost regretted it and slipped away without seeing it. When he jumped up from the chair quickly and then reached the door lightly, he suddenly saw Wang Fulin talking to Ma Chaoyang and Wang Xuezeng outside through the crack of the door. Zheng Yougui actually left the official room, and he had no chance to leave at all.
Seeing Wang Fulin walking towards the room, his heart almost popped out of his throat, but suddenly he saw Du Dushi, who was experiencing the department at the gate of the courtyard, ran in: "Wang Zhangdao, someone from the cabinet came, said that the Prime Minister summoned you."
In an instant, the whole yard was quiet. Wang Jiguang even felt that even the house where the Fujian censors were staying on the opposite side, and even the official room that had always been noisy, were silent at this moment. Even he himself stared at Wang Fulin who had just raised his eyebrows after hearing the news, and felt an indescribable jealousy in his heart. Soon, he saw Wang Fulin nodding, and the people in the yard soon dispersed, and Wang Fulin cast a glimpse into the room. The matter that almost made him think he was hiding inside was exposed, but fortunately the other party quickly turned around and left the yard with the Du Dushi who came to communicate with him.
When Wang Jiguang, who saw that there was no one in the yard and quietly flashed out of Wang Fulin's house, quickly walked back to his straight room, was thinking about Zhang Juzheng summoning Wang Fulin while thinking about the piece of paper he saw. The former could only envy, jealous and hatred in his heart, but the latter was something he could do. After just witnessing the scene of Wang Fulin being called away in person, he had no hesitation at all.
Wealth and honor also need to be in danger!
At this moment, Wang Fulin had already left the Censorate, but did not ride a horse, but sat on the sedan chair whom he had prepared for. Although he didn't like the shaking feeling, he urgently needed to stretch the distance and think about the situation he had to deal with for a while, so he did not refuse. However, after the sedan chair was swaying and setting off, he remembered his mind an unexpected glance in the yard.
At that time, he seemed to find someone in his house, but Zheng Yougui, who he allowed to accompany him, was in the yard. Who was so bold? If there was really someone, was the piece of paper he had spread on the desk seen? Although he was there because there was no invisible person, would anyone take the lead in the place where trolls like the Censorate gather, so would anyone take the lead in order to gain merit and reputation?
"If someone is really that stupid... there is no cure!" After muttering softly, Wang Fulin finally showed a hint of sneering.
ps: There is a problem with the bookshelf chapter, everyone has to read from the directory... I also updated today and asked someone to go out for dinner (to be continued.)
