Chapter 017 Zhang Siwei was impeached (4 updates exceeded 10,000)

The Lord of Heaven and Earth, the Lord, the Lord, the Lord, the Lord, the Lord, the Lord, the Lord, the Lord, the Lord, the Lord, the Lord, the Lord, the Lord, the Lord, the Lord, the Lord, the Lord, before the Lord, but generally speaking, this parent defaults to the parents.

Therefore, after Gao pragmatic returned to Beijing, there was no problem in accepting the emperor's summons first, and then there was no problem in accepting the teacher's summons. It was even natural that he should handle the matters assigned by the teacher first.

Next, you must go to meet your uncle Zhang Siwei. No one has a hard and fast rule about this order, but generally speaking, it must be followed.

Zhang Siwei's residence is in an excellent location, just west of Nantaiye Lake and southeast of Taipu Temple. From the small building of his house, you can see the Zhong (South) Sea, which was longed for by all the officials of the later Red Dynasty.

Of course, that place is not mysterious to Gao Pragmatic in this life. He has been there with Zhu Yijun at least twenty times. From the beginning, he was very excited, but later he became accustomed to it, and now he has little interest.

Speaking of interest, he is more interested in Kunming Lake. After all, the expansion of Xinzhai Villa is getting bigger and bigger, and it is now close to Kunming Lake. However, he is still a little worried about building a Summer Palace.

Firstly, it will cost a lot of money, and secondly, I wonder if there will be any bad luck in this place...

Of course, he does not believe in evil in general, otherwise he would not have built the Beiyang Fleet and the Nanyang Fleet. It is just that the Summer Palace spent 30 million taels of silver in history. Although there is an inflation factor, if it is now

It is estimated that it would be difficult to build an identical Summer Palace without a base of seven to eight million taels.

Forget it then, what can I do wrong with seven to eight million taels?

Sixty or seventy of the second-level cruisers in the new plan can be built! With that kind of strength, I am afraid that we can defeat the Spanish-Portuguese combined fleet that can be sent to East Asia. Is there any need to be so cautious in reaching out to the South China Sea?

It only cost more than 200,000 taels to build a replica of the Fontainebleau Palace with such complicated decorations. The Summer Palace is too exaggerated. Let’s talk about it if I can become an emperor in my next life. Spending my own money to do this is really painful.

.

When we arrived at Zhang Siwei's home, Zhang Siwei's servants were naturally very affectionate. They were respectful in front of the horse and behind the horse, as eager as if they saw their own young master.

However, my young master Zhang Taizheng is really in the Zhang Mansion - in fact, it is difficult to call him young master, because he has already won the Jinshi and is studying in the mansion as a shujishi.

For Zhang Taizheng, although Gao Pragmatic was his cousin, he was also the same year and the leader of the same year, so he personally went outside the gate and opened the middle gate to welcome him.

This middle gate was not opened for his cousin, but for the number one scholar. He was too pragmatic to accept it, and in the end it was his cousin Zhang Taizheng who grabbed his arm and pulled him in.

However, as soon as he entered the door, Zhang Taizheng waved his hands and sent his servants away, and then whispered to Gao Pingshi: "Please be honest, you came at the right time. My father has just been impeached, and I feel very angry. I can't help it, I'm afraid."

I have to lend your face to help."

Gao Pragmatic was startled for a moment and said, "What's going on? The day I came back, I didn't hear that my uncle was impeached."

Of course, that day the emperor took all the officials out of Yongding Gate to greet Gao Pragmatic. He also saw Zhang Siwei standing next to Guo Pu with a spring breeze on his face. If he was impeached, how could he appear? As a rule, he should have done it himself

I locked myself up at home to show my innocence.

Fortunately, I deliberately waited until the evening when the cabinet was on duty today, and my uncle and I were at home all day.

"Do you know Cao Yikui, the supervisory censor?" Zhang Taizheng curled his lips and said, "I don't know who ordered this guy to impeach my father, saying that he violated the rules and promoted his cousin Wang Qian - the son of Duke Jianchuan."

Of course Gao Pragmatic knew Wang Qian, who was his business partner. The Wang family followed him and plunged into the private military industry. Now they have the best cold weapons factory and one of the best armor factories in the Ming Dynasty.

Of course, the most important thing is that the iron used by his family to make weapons was purchased from Kaiping.

"Cao Yikui?" Gao Pingshi thought for a while and said, "This person's name is Zishao, his name is Shuanghua. He is from Wugang. He was a Jinshi in the second year of Wanli. I heard that he has a good relationship with Wang Zhuan, the disciple of Duke Zhang Wenxiang."

Zhang Wenxiang was talking about Zhang Juzheng. Wenxiang was originally the posthumous title of Gao Gong in the original history. In this life, Gao Pragmatic suggested to Zhu Yijun that he gave it to Zhang Juzheng. At that time, Zhu Yijun was a little unhappy, because Wenxiang was also a posthumous title, and Zhang Juzheng When Ju Zheng was overthrown by Gao Pragmatic that year, he left a very bad impression on Zhu Yijun.

However, Gao pragmatically persuaded Zhu Yijun with Gao Gong's death, because Gao Gong died suddenly due to emotional excitement after hearing the news of Zhang Juzheng's unhappy death. It can be seen that he still admired Zhang Juzheng until then, so...

So Zhu Yijun agreed, giving Gao Gong some face.

Wang Zhuan was a Jinshi in the 41st year of Jiajing reign and a disciple of Zhang Juzheng. After Zhang Juzheng's downfall, he was demoted to a foreign post. However, after so many years, this man actually returned to the capital and is now the Shaoqing of Taipu Temple, a fourth-rank official. .

Zhang Taizheng said: "I didn't expect you to know such a person. It's amazing... But you may not know that both Cao Yikui and Wang Zhuan are now under the old sect of Shen Ge."

Gao Pangshi's heart moved: "Brother, you mean that this matter was instigated by Mr. Shen Ge?"

"Instigating or not instigating, it's hard to say, but..." Zhang Taizheng curled his lips slightly: "I don't think you can run away if you acquiesce."

Gao Jingshi did not reply immediately, but thought for a while before asking: "Why did Mr. Shen Ge do this? I don't think he would take action personally to promote Wang Qian even if he had the intention, right?"

Zhang Taizheng waved his hand and said: "How can there be any promotion? My cousin was originally the director of the Ministry of Industry. He passed the examination with excellent grades and was transferred to the director of the Ministry of Personnel. How could he be promoted? Besides, the Wang family now owns the Wang's Ordnance Factory, so he has been staying at the Ministry of Industry instead of It's appropriate. Now that I have passed the exam and got excellent grades, isn't it normal to be transferred to the staff department?"

Gao Pragmatic frowned and said, "Then why did Cao Yikui say that my uncle violated the rules?"

"Exactly, isn't it because my cousin was a Jinshi in the fifth year of Wanli's reign, and was appointed as the head of the Ministry of Works after he was dismissed. Now he is just transferred to the Ministry of Civil Affairs after passing the exam in three years? But the reason has been mentioned before. He is not suitable for the Ministry of Works. Although you have only passed the exam in three years, you can still be transferred, and you have not been promoted, so how can it be against the regulations? "

Gao Pragmatic understood that Zhang Siwei was stuck on the most convenient way to do it. From a system perspective, there was indeed no problem, but this was similar to the exceptional promotion in later generations - the person being promoted may meet the criteria for exceptional promotion. Yes, but thoughtful people can still say: Why can you be promoted exceptionally? You are not the only person who meets the criteria for exceptional promotion.

Gao pragmatic smiled and said: "It's just a small matter. If uncle is angry, I can just go and persuade him. Don't worry, brother, it's a trivial matter."
