Chapter 809 The sound of the east and the west
The day after the editor of the Hanlin Academy, Wu Zhongxing wrote a letter, another disciple of Zhang Juzheng also chose Shuji Shi. Zhao Yongxian, who is now the Hanlin Academy's reviewer, wrote a letter directly at Zhang Juzheng's unfiliality, and even criticized the slogan of the Kedao who wrote the letter to leave Zhang Juzheng for being against public opinion and favored personal feelings. He asked Zhang Juzheng to return to his hometown and return to the court after the matter was completed.
The next day, Zhang Juzheng's fellow townsman Ai Mu and the head Chen Sixiao wrote a letter together. This time, he simply impeached Zhang Juzheng clearly and impeached him for being greedy for his relatives!
In addition to meditating and filial piety, the other three are either Zhang Juzheng's disciples or his fellow countrymen!
Under this chaotic situation, Lu Wang Zhu Yili didn't know so many troubles. He just shouted at Zhang Hong that he wanted to go to the vassal state, and he was able to get a one-day trip out of the palace. He was already satisfied, and of course he would not care whether Feng Bao followed him. If Zhang Hong followed him, he would rather choose Zhang Hong, who was kind and easy to talk to, rather than Feng Bao, who was in charge of the emperor's brother. As for the fact that he didn't even give him pea yellow food in the palace, it would be impossible. However, although Empress Dowager Li was not as tight as Emperor Wanli, he also ordered people around him to supervise him at all times. Some silly man muttered to him behind his back.
It’s just that this palace is not yours, but the emperor’s. If you want to enjoy yourself, you have to wait until you leave the palace and enter the vassal state.
Therefore, Zhu Yili, the King of Lu who had never left the palace, naturally wanted to see what the situation was outside the palace. Finally, this time he took a dangerous move, so he got what he wanted.
Since he temporarily took over the power of commanding the Dongchang and Jinyiwei, Zhang Hong wanted to give Zhang Feng the opportunity to meet with Wang Fulin, so he naturally indulged Zhu Yili's temperament. As the Lu Wang wanted to do whatever he wanted. Even if the little ancestor ran to the stall selling straw sandals, he was very excited to learn to weave straw sandals, and he was dressed as an old servant and followed him and gave him a rope with a smile. As Zhu Yili and him and several confidant followers became more and more active, the Dongchang and Jinyiwei used more and more people to call. Except for some eyeliners used to monitor important people, the others were all involved in the security work of His Highness Lu Wang.
Not only did Zhang Hong create an opportunity for Zhang Feng, he also mobilized several of his own eyeliners, successfully ensuring that when Wang Fulin walked out of the Censorate, there was no eye staring in front of him or her.
Wang Fulin's itinerary was not a secret at Guangdong Road of the Censorate. Today he was a businessman at the Ministry of Justice and Dali Temple. As the representative of Chen Zan, the left censor of the Censorate, he discussed the issue of the three judicial officers' punishment. By the time he finished his work, it was almost noon. Naturally, he would not rush back to the Censorate to eat the big pot rice supplied by the yamen. He had money in his pocket. Now that he had been free for half a day, he did not continue to pay attention to the ups and downs of Zhang Juzheng's love storm. He had sent Wang Daokun back to his hometown and put down most of his worries. At this moment, he walked along Jiufeng Temple Street very confidently to a small alley on the side.
He was not interested in vegetarian food in the past, but the vegetarian noodles sold at that small stall were really delicious, especially the gluten was specially made. If he didn't eat at the Censorate at noon and would not send Zheng Yougui to buy food, he would probably take off his official uniform and come here quietly. Because this alley was too pickled, it only had a roof, two tables and eight benches, and he often had to squeeze together with people to eat, and closed the stall after lunch, so he had never met his colleagues who valued decentness.
However, at noon that day, when he came to this stall with familiarity, he found that there was no diner that he could always see in the past, and the familiar fat old man was nowhere to be seen. Instead, there was a familiar person sitting opposite the seat he often sat. The moment he recognized the other party, he realized that today's meeting was definitely not a coincidence, but had been designed in advance, so how much he had to find out in advance?
For those who are interested, a yamen like the Censorate is really a sieve!
Since she understood this, Wang Fulin was so polite that he went up to his old seat and sat down in his old seat, raised his eyebrows and said, "When did Eunuch Zhang come from Nanjing to Beijing? You are a garrison eunuch, and you were sitting quietly in the shop I often come to, which shocked me."
"Make Wang Shiyu laugh." Zhang Feng smiled apologetically. As for the sincerity of the apology, only God knows. However, compared to the appointment of this time, he used a completely different level of power compared to the appointment of him in Nanjing for privately meeting Wang Fulin in Nanjing half a year ago, and the importance of Wang Fulin is also completely different. At the beginning, Wang Fulin only hurriedly returned to Beijing from the position of the Guangdong Censorate to report his duties, and his future is still difficult to say. But now, Wang Fulin is already the chief censor of Guangdong Daoism. There are many rumors that he is entering the Zhang family and entering his own house. Everyone says that Zhang Juzheng values this person very much.
So, he naturally would not care about greetings, but started to laugh and said, "After Meng Fang was taken down, Eunuch Feng from Nanjing changed his godson to take office. This person is quite easy to talk to. With Meng Fang's lesson, he got along well with me. As for that messy business, as soon as Meng Fang fell, I immediately cut off the mess and cleaned it up."
Wang Fulin knew that Zhang Feng wanted to show his protection for Hui merchants. He smiled in his heart and said, "That's thankful to Eunuch Zhang. All the families in my hometown will thank you for your deep friendship."
Zhang Feng didn't care whether Wang Fulin had any teasing in his words. After spreading the interest relationship between the two, he said: "I'm sitting here today. I'm sure Wang Shiyu knows who arranged it. You have had several dealings with my godfather, and my godfather praised you. If you want to say that my godfather and Yuanfu and Eunuch Feng have always gotten along very well. However, Empress Ci Sheng has always been strict with the emperor, and Eunuch Feng is always towards the empress. Yuanfu's attitude is naturally crucial. Godfather said that just like the past, if you can persuade Yuanfu from the future, it will be beneficial to both parties."
Wang Fulin didn't believe that Zhang Hong had mastered his movements so accurately, and then sent Zhang Feng, a person who was not familiar but not stranger, to him just to make it easier for him to do something so easy. Therefore, he simply pretended to be confused and asked in confusion: "Eunuch Zhang, don't blame me for being too poor in understanding. This is really too general. Don't mind making an example?"
If Wang Fulin agreed so readily, Zhang Feng would rather mutter in his heart. At this moment, the other party pretended to be stupid and wanted to give an example by himself. Although this was a bit rogue, he felt that today's trip was worth it. He gently tapped the table and whispered: "The emperor has two people who served Zhang Cheng and Zhang Jing since childhood. Zhang Cheng once served as the eunuch in the internal official supervisor. In the past, Eunuch Feng recommended him, and Zhang Jing was a person under my godfather's name. Because of the matter when Godfather sent someone to find you, both of them were sent to Genggu Room by Empress Ci Sheng. After the incident, Godfather helped the emperor to retrieve people, but there was only one, so Zhang Jing is still in Genggu Room."
Wang Fulin only bribed a few small eunuchs about the matter in the palace. The fragmented news was not systematic, so this was the first time he knew that the two famous eunuchs around Emperor Wanli were so miserable by Feng Bao. And Zhang Hong was so selfless that he was not afraid of Zhang Jing's resentment after he got the power! No wonder the eunuchs in the palace who had the title of father and son or master and apprentice stepped on their godfathers after they got the power!
But no matter what, he shouldn't have been asked for this matter... Could it be that he could still ask Zhang Juzheng and then use Feng Bao to get the person out? This should be just an introduction!
Sure enough, Zhang Feng said next, "You can also see what kind of person the godfather is. The godfather has never taken over power or takes care of things, and is loyal only for the emperor. Therefore, the godfather only hopes that if the emperor has anything to do in the future, you will be with Yuan Fu and help to reconcile when it is time to reconcile. Of course, if you repay the favor, the godfather will definitely speak for you in front of the emperor."
Seeing Wang Fulin frowning thoughtfully, Zhang Feng took something out of his sleeve and handed it over with a smile: "Although my godfather had already sent you once last time, there was no thank you. In the past three days, four people wrote letters to stop the love. Yuan Fu and Eunuch Feng were all so angry that they were smoked. The emperor was also really angry. Maybe he could not even use the court stick. But in addition to these four bold ones, in fact, on the first day, there was a memorial sent to the Tongzhengsi Department, but it was detained. Look, that's it."
Wang Fulin was stunned for a moment. He took the memorial handed over by Zhang Feng with a complicated expression. When he opened it, he sighed deeply.
Sure enough, Shen Maoxue was still serious, but he was cut off by a vast amount of magical powers. No matter how this fell into Zhang Hong's hands, this kind of favor was always owed. You know, he could use the three points of family affection and blood to persuade Wang Daokun, who is no longer an idealist, but he could not persuade someone like Shen Maoxue.
He just glanced at it, and did not look closely, immediately put it in his sleeve, and then said solemnly: "Eunuch Zhang also asked Mr. Rong Zhai to report to me that I agree to this matter. I plan to write a few volumes of books about the West in the future, which are basically novels of Romance. I also hope that Eunuch Zhang will have the opportunity to present it to the imperial reading for me."
Zhang Feng took this matter in front of Zhang Hong because he knew that Wang Fulin was a very rational and decisive person. At this time, the matter was done, and Wang Fulin even proposed a very reasonable exchange condition. He smiled and nodded happily: "This is not easy to say? As long as Eunuch Zhang has seen it, it will definitely be done. If Wang Shiyu has something to do in the future, he can go to the Master Ci'en Pagoda behind Tianqing Temple and count the west side from the underground. The third brick is empty. It is not too early, so I have to leave first."
"Wait!" Wang Fulin reached out to stop Zhang Feng. Seeing that the other party was puzzled, he patted his stomach gently, "It's okay to forget the diners in this stall. Where did you get this fat old man under the supervision? You can't let me go back to the Censorate on hungry, right?"
Zhang Feng was a little embarrassed and quickly called out, "It was the excuse I sent someone to invite him to make vegetarian noodles at a high price. He brought the person to the vegetarian restaurant behind Jifeng Temple, but occupied his place. All the previous diners were blocked by me, but I didn't expect that Wang Shiyu loved his bowl of noodles so much. In this way, I turned around and asked the vegetarian restaurant in Jifeng Temple to take him..."
"Then there is no need. At worst, I can just walk a few more steps and spend a few more cents to go to the vegetarian restaurant."
Wang Fulin was just worried that these guys who did not treat ordinary people as human beings, so he directly caused the fat old man with good cooking skills to evaporate the world. He heard that the person was hired to the most unpalatable vegetarian restaurant in Jiufeng Temple, which was originally the most unpalatable vegetarian restaurant. When Zhang Feng left, he sighed and went directly to the vegetarian restaurant in Jiufeng Temple, but there were only a few guests in groups of three or three. The fat old man who was busy and sweating profusely when he was busy, was now in a daze. He looked happy when he saw him, but he was cautious when he spoke.
"It's hard for the guest to find this, but the plain noodles here... cost fifty cents a bowl."
When the price was quoted, the fat old man was a little ashamed. You should know that what he asked for was small profits but quick turnover. Which regular customer would spend fifty cents, that is, half a dollar to eat a bowl of noodles. Isn’t this crazy?
Therefore, when he saw Wang Fulin take out a small inlay of silver from the treasure bag and hand it to the impatient waiter next to him as if he was not caring, he suddenly widened his eyes in surprise! Although Wang Fulin was wearing a green silk shirt, the world is now in a luxurious way. Even many peddlers and pawns in the capital have a silk shirt full of scenes. He never thought about the possibility that the other party was a rich man. When he was in a hurry and then doubled the toppings and gluten to Wang Fulin, he did not expect that Wang Fulin raised his hand to signal him to sit down and talk. After he hesitating for a long time, he finally wiped his hands and sat down in a hurried manner.
"The vegetarian restaurant in Jifeng Temple has always been deserted. You are hiring a lot of money. If there is no business, how long do you think you can stay?"
Wang Fulin asked without raising his head while eating noodles. Hearing the fat old man opposite him didn't say anything, he raised his head, but saw that the waiter who collected the money had come over at some point. The waiter who was too smart actually rushed to say, "We have many pilgrims in Jiufeng Temple, which means there are fewer customers today..."
Before this guy could finish his words, Wang Fulin put down his chopsticks and interrupted: "Would I have never been to your Jifeng Temple? That statue of Sakyamuni is indeed a master of the capital, but this vegetarian vegetarian is also a master of the capital. Not to mention anything else, fifty-money per bowl, can you be a fool? The owner, just tell me, how much wages will this vegetarian vegetarian give you in a month?"
"Five-single-word essay..." The fat old man was a little confused, but he still answered, but Wang Fulin reached out to the tip of the bag and took it, but he slapped a silver note on the table.
"I'll go with me later, and I'll give you so much wages. In addition, the remaining ten taels are the incense money I gave to Jifeng Temple."
The young man was about to object, but when he saw the silver bill, he immediately closed his mouth. The fat old man almost glared out his eyes. Seeing Wang Fulin ate a bowl of vegetarian noodles, he hooked his hand and instructed him to follow him out. He only hesitated for a moment. Seeing that the young man looked at him with a sarcastic face, he thought that when he came here today, from the hall to the dishes and vegetables, everyone from the hall here looked at his nose not his nose, his eyes not his eyes, and clearly looked down on him, who used to set up a small stall outside. He finally followed Wang Fulin, an old diner who often visited and was chasing here.
It was not until he left the Suzhai Pavilion and then the Jifeng Temple that he heard a few words that made him stunned.
"I will pay you to be a chef and go to Guangdong Road, the Censorate to have a small kitchen, just keep it in plain form. If I leave, if I am a Beijing official, you will follow you wherever I go. If I am a foreign official, I will give you another place to settle!"
Taking Zhang Hong found himself today, he was nothing more than using some spies. If he did another trick, he would find a chef who was interested and lost the person afterwards. Wouldn't that be a sin? Besides, he was not afraid that someone would impeach him for such trivial reasons!
ps: Yesterday, I went to celebrate my birthday with my best friend. I had a day of fun, so I was very embarrassed. Today is still updated, and tomorrow is 2000 on Monday (to be continued.)
