Recently, when Liu saw that many foreign ministers were deceiving the world and stealing their reputations and disturbing His Majesty, he became angry and posted an exposé to reprimand and persuade.
I also saw the great scholar Xu Guo disobeying the advice and going for a swim. In anger, he fell into the city and committed suicide. He wanted to die as a warning to the world. It is true that there are very few loyal and courageous people!"
There was an eunuch named Wei Shen in the Bureau of Ceremony, who was a senior eunuch and had already become a young eunuch during the Jiajing period.
After the original factory boss Zhang Jing fell, Wei Shen failed to win over Sun Xian to replace the factory boss, and he was always a little unconvinced.
Hearing the report from Sun Xian's godson Sun Yong, Wei Shen couldn't help but criticize him and said: "How can there be such an upright and loyal minister? We have never heard of it. Could it be that Sun Yong was pretentious?"
Emperor Wanli, who was lying on the soft couch, suddenly spoke and sternly scolded Wei Shen: "What nonsense! Can't there be loyal people among the ministers?"
Wei Shen was stunned, and then he knelt down to apologize, and the others said nothing.
Then Emperor Wanli issued an edict: "He will be buried lavishly by the Gaoliang River outside Xizhimen! And a temple will be built to offer sacrifices. I will personally write the word "loyalty" on the plaque!"
The emperor's golden words, the life of the gatekeeper Liu is finalized!
Sun Yong quickly stepped forward to receive the order, and Emperor Wanli added: "You don't have to do it yourself! You pass the order to the cabinet and let the officials from outside the court handle it. You can supervise it!"
Sun Yong felt very happy. Usually, on important matters that the emperor valued, he would send eunuch Bingbi, the chief of etiquette, to convey the decree and supervise.
I was assigned this kind of errand today. Didn't I enjoy the treatment of a eunuch holding a pen?
There is nothing wrong with the godfather's approach. First let the emperor know that Liu Mengguan is not a pure loyal man, but he is just trying to climb up the ladder by any means, and finally got away with it.
Then let the emperor know that he was very sensible and deliberately molded Liu Menguan into a loyal martyr, so that the emperor could truly recognize him!
