Chapter 412 It's impossible to tell him to keep a low profile!
In June of the 17th year of the Chenghua reign of the Ming Dynasty, it was already early summer. The weather was a bit sultry and sultry, making people feel irritated, just like the current imperial court.
Recently, scholar Liu Jiding returned to his hometown, Minister of War Chen Yue resigned and returned, and the ministers of cabinet suddenly had two positions vacant. Is that more than just blowing away a pool of spring water?
What's more, there are rumors that the famous eunuch Wang is about to lose power. What will happen to Wang Yue, the censor of the left capital who has a close relationship with Wang Zhi, and Dai Jin, the censor of the right capital who was promoted by praising Wang Zhi? In other words, the court is very likely to want to
Re-appoint a bachelor, a minister of the Ministry of War, and two censors...
The core figures in the entire imperial court who can be called ruling ministers are the cabinet ministers and the outer court ministers. Their total number is only about ten. Now at least three or four must be re-appointed, and they can almost be called
A small blood transfusion was done.
This is the largest personnel change that has occurred in the imperial court since the 13th year of Chenghua, when Xiang Zhong, Minister of War, and Li Bin, Yushi of Zuodu, resigned successively. It has a great impact on the political arena. For example, the ministers and officials
The emperor was originally competing for ministers like the alchemist Li Zisheng, but now it was unnoticed and no one mentioned it.
For those top or quasi-top officials, having so much space for advancement suddenly opened up at the top of the imperial pyramid is nothing less than a golden opportunity. In normal times, it would be rare to wait for even one vacancy, but this time, several positions suddenly appeared.
, who can not be tempted?
For a time, various gatherings, secret messages, and connections in the capital multiplied exponentially, and all kinds of relationships were suddenly operating at the highest efficiency. It was simply dizzying in the eyes of insiders.
However, all this excitement seemed to have nothing to do with Fang Yingwu. On that day, he was in charge of matters at the county government office. After an hour's break from official correspondence, he sat in the courtyard to drink tea and rest, and chatted with Lou Tianhua.
Talking about the gossip of the court, Mr. Lou sighed: "There has been a lot of trouble in the capital recently. If we put it in normal times, it would be the time for me to make money."
Fang Yingwu was surprised and said: "How can you brokers influence the decisions of the ruling ministers? It's simply shocking!"
Lou Tianhua hurriedly explained: "How can we do this? It's just a matter of getting the news out early and selling it to officials and merchants from other places. They all need this kind of news."
Lou Tianhua then flattered the other party and said: "Only people like the proprietor can attend the temple's planning, and we can only watch."
"You are joking, I have to keep a low profile!" Fang Yingwu said with a dumb smile. In fact, Fang Yingwu was a bit regretful that he could not participate in such a big bustle to compete for benefits. There were not many opportunities to free up so many positions at once.
See.
But what he needs is time. If things go well, he can compete for his father in ten years, and he can compete for himself in twenty years. As for now, he can probably only keep a low profile and watch others compete.
Later, Fang Yingwu and Lou Tianhua discussed the matter of the Queen Mother's younger brother. Lou Tianhua asked for instructions: "The Bell and Drum Tower store has been demolished. Regarding the construction of the new Baoguo Temple, what regulations does the proprietor have?"
Fang Yingwu instructed: "How can the county government have money to build a new temple? I don't want to requisition people's power for this, so let's stop for now. If it is not as expected, the emperor should allocate money from the palace for dual purposes out of filial piety.
We are waiting for the newly built Baoguo Temple."
At the same time, Dai Jin, the right censor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, was sitting in the lobby of the Metropolitan Procuratorate. He felt uneasy, but he didn't know where this uneasiness came from.
Four years ago, he braved the disapproval of the scholars to put in a good word for Xichang and Wang Zhi, and was appreciated by the emperor. He was promoted to the second-level censor of Youdu. Although he was scolded as a lackey of Wang Zhi, it was worth it.
.
This year, eunuch Wang was prospering but declining. Based on the situation, he could tell that Wang Zhi would definitely fall. If Wang Zhi fell, then Dai Jin would also be implicated and charged.
Master Dai has always been very confident about his own vision, so he once again made an unexpected decision. He took the initiative to hand over to Shang Ming, the admiral of the East Factory, and helped Shang Ming plan an attack on Wang Zhi, including forcing Fang Yingwu to go to
Impeach Wang Zhi.
As the saying goes, a gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall. There is no need for him to accompany Wang Zhi in misfortune. From this point of view, Mr. Dai has a "clear conscience." Originally, Dai Jin, who had escaped from the crisis, could rest easy.
But I am also very relieved, I just want to wait for Wang Zhi to collapse, as long as I am not implicated.
But the recent limelight makes Mr. Dai feel a little strange. For example, the censor of Zuodu and the admiral of the capital camp, Wang Yue Shang Shu, scolded Wang Zhi, and I heard that when Shang Ming celebrated his birthday, Wang Yue gave him a gift.
He pays great attention to courtesy and his desire to please is clearly revealed.
When he heard about this incident at the beginning, Mr. Dai sarcastically said in private, "This is just picking people's teeth", which meant that Wang Yue was completely imitating his approach. But if Wang Yue was not the only one to do this, suddenly a group of civil and military officials would follow this path.
route, the situation becomes very delicate.
A ruined ship and three pounds of nails. Whose family doesn’t have a few loyal ministers and filial sons? Wang Zhi has been winning people’s hearts for so many years, and now they are all crying and wanting to join Shang Ming? If this is true, how can he appear to be Dai Jin?
Know the current affairs?
Seeing his ally Shang Ming whose arrogance suddenly increased several times, Dai Jin did not feel happy, but felt vaguely uneasy. He kept sitting in the lobby feeling uneasy.
No! Be careful. Dai Jin has placed all his bets on Shang Ming. He can't just sit back and watch the doubts and remain indifferent. Thinking of this, Mr. Dai changed into plain clothes and went out to Shang Ming's mansion.
Shang Ming returned to his mansion from Dongchang and saw Dai Jin waiting. He couldn't help but be surprised and said: "What kind of strong wind brought Dai Zhongcheng here today?"
Dai Jin expressed his doubts, and Shang Ming sneered a few times, "Master Dai, have you seen it too? How could I not know that there is something fishy about it? It's just that now is the time to recruit talents, so it's inconvenient to reject them thousands of miles away.
, Otherwise, who would dare to come and seek refuge?"
Dai Jin added: "They may not all be sincere, I'm afraid someone is organizing behind the scenes."
Shang Ming said nonchalantly: "What is false is true, what is true and what is false can naturally become true! I'm afraid these people have two minds. If Wang Zhi loses power, then it is logical that falsehood can become true."
Dai Jin saw that Shang Ming was a little careless and continued to persuade: "I hope the factory owner will think twice!" Shang Ming nodded and said: "I understand what you mean, and of course I will not neglect it. In fact, these things are not something to be afraid of for the time being. The next step is
The key, what really needs to be watched out for is their next step.”
Dai Jin couldn't help but ask: "Will the factory's official plan be settled?"
Shang Ming said with a ruthless face: "To untie the bell, you must tie the bell. I know who came up with this idea. Eunuch Wang secretly returned to Beijing the day before yesterday to conspire with this person. From what I see, he is hiding behind Wang Zhi."
The biggest conspirator. Now he wants to hide behind and fire cold arrows, so I have to tell him to keep a low profile. If I defeat him, I will naturally resolve the dilemma." (To be continued, please search Piao Tian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!
