It has to be said that Li Shanchang is very good at playing tricks and engaging in court battles.
So much so that he is obviously a stingy, vengeful and greedy person, but he has always had a reputation of being kind and tolerant for a long time.
However, Li Shanchang was also smart but was misled by his cleverness. Lao Zhu saw from Yang Xian's incident that the Zhongshu Province had too much power and was a threat to the imperial power.
So after killing Yang Xian, Lao Zhu began to deliberately weaken the power of Zhongshu Sheng.
Wang Guangyang probably saw this, so he would rather stay in Guangdong and indulge in sexual activities and ruin his reputation than come back.
This matter is a snipe and a clam competing for the fisherman's profit, and the only person who benefits is Hu Weiyong, who was originally useless and unknown.
If Hu Weiyong had relied on his own ability, it would have been impossible for him to enter the Central Publishing House.
Fugui continued: "After Mr. Yang's incident, Mr. Wang was transferred back to continue to be the right prime minister. Then Mr. Li became the Taifu, and Mr. Wang was sent to Guangdong by the emperor. Now he has been recalled as the prime minister. It can be said that it is Big ups and big downs.”
Zhu Bai touched his chin: Could it be that Wang Guangyang felt that no matter how hard he worked, he could not escape being punished in the end, so he lay down.
Or he thinks Hu Weiyong is the second Yang Xian.
If he is too diligent, he will be screwed by Hu Weiyong again...
He asked Fugui again: "Since Lord Liu recommended Yang Xian, then after Yang Xian was convicted, wasn't Lord Liu blamed by my father?"
Fugui whispered: "When Yang Xian was in power, Mr. Liu told the emperor many times in the court that Yang Xian formed a party for personal gain. The emperor ignored him. Mr. Liu also told the emperor in private that Yang Xian was talented, but he was small. He didn't hold such an important position as prime minister. The emperor didn't care. After punishing Yang Xian, the emperor felt that what Mr. Liu said before was right, and praised Mr. Liu for not collaborating with others and for having the courage to remonstrate directly. "
Zhu Bai frowned, always feeling that something was wrong, but he couldn't figure out what was wrong.
It seems that Liu Bowen killed his relatives out of righteousness.
But it's not at all.
Zhu Bai said: "Since Mr. Liu said that Yang Xian was insignificant, why did he recommend him?"
Fugui sighed: "Master Liu recommended Master Yang Xian to serve as the Councilor and Political Affairs Minister. Master Yang became the Prime Minister two years after becoming the Councilor and Political Councilor. He was promoted by the Emperor himself."
Only then did Zhu Bai understand.
Liu Bowen originally wanted to install people on the spokesman's side in Zhongshu Province.
Unexpectedly, Yang Xian rose too fast, his tail was too big to fall, and he did not obey the command.
Liu Bowen could only draw a clear line with Yang Xian.
Liu Bowen has always been known to be a good judge of people. Since he can see that Yang Xian is small, can he not see Yang Xian's ambition?
He clearly felt that Yang Xian always snitched on Lao Zhu and won Lao Zhu's trust, which was a major problem for him, so he deliberately "praising and killing" Yang Xian.
This Liu Shengun is definitely not as upright as he looks. He is definitely a veteran in playing power.
Zhu Bai walked slowly along the street.
Unintentionally catching a glimpse of his own shadow on the ground, he realized that these fights had left a shadow on Lao Zhu's heart.
The layout of the court today is the same as it was back then.
Hu Weiyong is from the Huaixi Group, and Wang Guangyang is from the Yanguan side.
It's still a confrontation between the two sides.
In Lao Zhu's view, Hu Weiyong is the second Yang Xian.
Lao Zhu's arrangement really had deep meaning.
Well, another bloody killing is about to begin...
When Zhu Bai entered the Guan Ya Bureau, he saw that his daughter's hand holding the broom was red from the cold. He turned to ask Zhang Ya: "Is there a stove for heating in the woodshed in the backyard?"
Chief Ya knew that Zhu Bai was worried about Nannan being cold at night, so he said, "Yes, yes. My wife made a cotton-padded coat for Nannan a few days ago. Don't worry, she won't get cold."
Zhu Bai rolled his eyes: "Who asked her? What's the matter with her being cold-blooded about me?"
Isn't this just a tough talk?
Ya Chang sighed secretly and replied: "Yes, yes, my subordinate is talking too much."
Zhu Bai: "How much salary do you give my daughter every month?"
Ya Chang was a little nervous: "It is based on fifty cents a day."
It's only about 1,500 yuan a month, which is equivalent to two or five coins of silver.
Zhu Bai frowned: "Why so few?"
Ya Chang didn't know why Zhu Bai suddenly said this and looked confused: "Ah..."
In fact, there are quite a few.
Nannan doesn't do any hard work, she just sweeps the floor and washes tea cups. She is not a highly skilled craftsman.
Zhu Bai nodded: "Give her more wages. You can't always let her take advantage of you."
Ya Chang said hurriedly: "I understand."
Fugui also found it funny, and handed the thin sheepskin gloves that Zhu Bai had just asked for to Chief Ya: "His Highness said, these old gloves for girls are not worth much, and it is useless for him to hold them. Give it to whomever you want."
This is obviously a pair of fine new lambskin gloves, worth at least ten taels of silver.
Besides, Zhu Bai has so many sisters, how could no one send them as gifts...
Tooth Chang looked confused.
Fugui winked at his daughter.
Ya Chang suddenly realized: "Okay, then I will handle it myself."
As soon as Fugui came up, Chief Ya handed the gloves to Nannan: "You are the only woman in this Guan Ya Bureau, and I don't have anyone to give it to, so I'll give it to you."
Nannan looked at the gloves, pursed her lips and smiled slightly, saluting: "Thank you, Tooth Chang."
Zhu Bai had already sat in front of the window, watching his daughter put on her gloves before starting to write again.
How could she compete with me in calligraphy if her hands were covered with frostbite from the cold?
Even if I win, it will be a weak victory.
I must convince her to lose.
-----
Under Lao Zhu's supervision, the autumn salary of Beijing officials, which had been delayed for two months, was paid out in a few days.
This time the salary can be paid with copper coins supervised by Zhu Biao.
No matter how much or how little, something is better than nothing.
Moreover, the Guanya Bureau also posted a notice: "It is allowed to exchange copper coins for equivalent silver. There is no limit on the number of times and quantity."
So there is no problem of non-circulation at all.
All the officials were beaming with joy after receiving their salaries.
Zhu Bai was secretly amused: A quarter's salary is lost after just two meals at my place. What's so fun about it...
He was willing to exchange silver for copper coins because he had made an agreement with Lao Zhu. After collecting the copper coins, he exchanged them with the silver that Lao Zhu brought from the treasury.
Then Lao Zhu used copper coins to pay his salary.
This is considered normal circulation.
Zhu Biao was very happy that the major event he presided over was finally carried out smoothly.
Compared with the last disaster relief operation, it went much smoother.
If nothing goes wrong, it will be promoted to the thirteen chief secretaries next year.
Chen Ning, the censor doctor, left the palace and waited in a remote place.
Hu Weiyong came out and saw him, nodded slightly, and then went to a teahouse.
Chen Ning then followed up, entered the dining room, saluted Hu Weiyong, sat down, took out the copper coins he had just received, placed them on the table, and said, "Mr. Hu, this is the job of the Ministry of Household Affairs and the Ministry of Works. For such a big business, you Are you willing to let Zhu Biao do it?"
Lao Zhu is like this every time. If there is something promising, he will give it to his son.
All the hard work is done by officials, and there really is no way for others to make a living.
