Originally, in this matter, the eunuch leader Jiu Qiansui was asked to seek justice!
However, the eunuchs are now disheartened!
Ever since Xu Xianchun was exterminated and Wei Zhongxian and Cui Chengxiu were sent to prison, the eunuch party has been on a decline.
After Cui Chengxiu came out, the official returned to his original position, but he became cautious from then on, just doing his job carefully and no longer getting involved in anything. He even stopped coming to this party.
The leader, Wei Zhongxian, simply gave up his job!
No more gifts, no more things done! I won’t accept my godson either!
And he publicly said that all his former godchildren and grandchildren would disown him! And he invited himself to the title of Nine Thousand Years Old!
Although he is still in charge of Dongchang and still has His Majesty's favor, his power is no longer what it used to be!
As the so-called macaques disperse when a tree falls, eunuchs such as Li Chunye, Zhang Ruitu, Xue Zhen, etc. have other ideas. Now they have formed a new group around the first assistant Gu Bingqian and the second assistant Zhao Nanxing.
They also tried to ease the conflict with the Donglin Party. Therefore, they united to impeach Sun Chengzong and the others at the Battle of Liuhe.
"Li Shangshu, are you serious about this?" the Ministry of Rites asked Liu Mao during the incident.
Li Chunye bowed his hands and saluted, "Of course it's true! I wonder what Mr. Liu is referring to?"
Although Liu Mao (mao) from the Ministry of Rites was only a member of the Donglin Party, Li Chunye did not dare to be rude, especially in today's situation!
Liu Mao was a Jinshi in the 41st year of Wanli. He was a general of the Donglin Party. He was bold in admonishing and outspoken. Last year, he offended Wei Zhongxian and was dismissed from his post. Later, under the mediation of Zhao Nanxing, he was reinstated this year and was later ranked Dong. Lin Dian will record!
The most famous thing about this king is that in the second year of Chongzhen, he wrote to Emperor Chongzhen to cut the post when he was in the position of Shizhong in the Ministry of Punishment...
Lao Li is unemployed.
Liu Maodao: "I have a friend who owns thousands of acres of fertile land in Tianjin Wei. Now he is also on the run and living in his house. As Li Shangshu said, his fertile land has also been confiscated?"
As soon as this statement came out, other "friends" who also had property in Tianjin Wei looked at Li Chunye.
Li Chunye said loudly: "I don't dare to deceive Mr. Liu! Not only the land, the shop and the house, everything has been confiscated! Not to mention your friends, my housekeeper has my name card, it's just as useless!"
The hateful thing is that the soldier named Liu Ping tore it up without even looking at it! He also beat my old butler to a bloody head. If he hadn't been quick to see the opportunity, he would have become an innocent ghost of Tianjin Wei! "
"How brave!"
Liu Mao and others were furious. A small military man actually didn't take the second-rank minister in his eyes seriously! And he acted so lawlessly!
Li Chunye sneered and said: "He, a little soldier, naturally does not have the courage. However, as far as I know, this person is Huang Xiao's domestic slave and was originally a deserter from the Nanyang Prefecture Guard!
If only one person attained enlightenment, chickens and dogs would ascend to heaven! This person keeps saying that he will mention Mr. Huang, haha! How dare he do this if no one gave him courage? "
"absurd!"
Yang Lian said angrily: "Even if Huang Xiao's slave is so lawless, how can he be called the sage of Taizu!"
Liu Mao also said angrily: "A wise man? Humph, I think he is a monster! This person seems to be loyal and treacherous! He behaves perversely and regards etiquette as nothing! I didn't know your majesty's identity before, so it's worthy of your majesty's brother! Now I know your majesty's identity , but we are still the eldest brother before the eldest brother and the back after the eldest brother, what kind of decency is this!"
Liu Mao was a minister of the Ministry of Rites and studied these etiquette laws every day. Many people secretly nodded to Huang Xiao's accusations!
Liu Mao added: "Also, he is a white man with no official position, but he lives in the imperial palace openly! The so-called wise man must be a trick he used to confuse Your Majesty. Otherwise, how could Your Majesty make such a ridiculous decree? ?”
"That's right!" Shao Fuzhong stood up.
Everyone was stunned. Shao Fuzhong was the Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs and the second assistant. Moreover, he was neither an eunuch nor a Donglin party, so he ended up also!
"Huang Xiao is good at uncanny skills and uses this as an opportunity to charm him! But it is very harmful to the country and the people! I have to say a few words out of righteous indignation! Everyone knows the price of cloth in the capital today, right? A piece of linen cloth He can sell it for less than two cents! How many people’s livelihoods will be cut off! The price of grain hurts the farmers, so why does the price of cloth not hurt the farmers!"
Shao Fuzhong paused and said: "The treasure pavilion set up by Huang Xiao is filled with gold every day, and he collects the private wealth of the world for himself! He uses this to win over the eunuchs, and then uses it to flatter His Majesty, causing prices in the capital to become chaotic and the people to live in dire straits! The merchants in the market are miserable. Say! This is the behavior of poor people in a poor country!"
"What Mr. Shao Ge said is absolutely true!"
Another person stood up, but it was Zhang Ruitu, the second assistant of the Minister of Rites.
Everyone was shocked, this is a hardcore eunuch!
"Huang Xiao doesn't respect sages, how can he be called a sage? He actually used the sacred writing paper of our generation of scholars for toilet seats! It's really insulting to gentlemen! And he often talks about political affairs with strange words and weird opinions! It's really wrong An act that is disastrous to the country!”
Li Chunye said loudly: "All of my colleagues are the pillars of the country, and we will never allow this person to disrupt the imperial court! I am willing to petition! Please stay away from the villain and uphold the imperial court!"
Li Chunye raised his arms and shouted, and the officials responded one after another!
Zhao Nanxing stepped forward!
All the ministers in the palace looked sideways!
Zhao Nanxing is a heavenly official! He is the Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs and the second assistant, and is also the leader of the Donglin Party. He has a great reputation in the Shilin officialdom. At this moment, he has only taken one step, but it has attracted everyone's attention!
"I am a generation of scholars who care about the common people. What I have learned is to assist the emperor at the top and care for the people at the bottom! All the princes in the court are righteous! How can we let evil take over!
I believe that Huang Xiao has joined forces with the eunuchs. Today, I will work together and petition together. I only hope that His Majesty’s divine eyes will be like a torch, to eliminate evil and use righteousness! It's time to bring order to the chaos! "
"I am willing to go with Mr. Zhao!"
…
Zhao Nanxing's reputation is not comparable to that of Li Chunye, although he ranks Huang Xiao and Wei Zhongxian.
But Li Chunye and other eunuchs no longer care about their eunuch tags at this moment, and they all started talking! Just in time to clear his identity as a eunuch!
At this moment almost everyone stood up!
Zhu Youjian's face turned red with excitement! I couldn't help but say in my heart, these are the upright and awe-inspiring princes in the court! Everyone is in full swing!
Zuo Guangdou was shocked and angry!
He never expected that just three days after Huang Xiao returned safely, Tianjin Wei had just been pacified, Liuhe was defeated, and Jian Nu invaded the border... But at this time, Huang Xiao was misunderstood by the officials and caused such a big disturbance!
"Wait!"
Zuo Guangdou stood out from the crowd and stopped in front of the ministers.
Zhao Nanxing looked at Zuo Guangdou coldly and said, "Master Zuo, are you going to go upstream?"
Everyone looked at Zuo Guangdou mockingly.
Zuo Guangdou was not afraid and said loudly: "Mr. Huang serves the country and the people! You have many misunderstandings! I have personally observed Dahuang Village for several months. I, Zuo Guangdou, can guarantee it with my life and property here. Mr. Huang is definitely not You are a sycophant! You are not a monster who is causing harm to the country!
The matter of Tianjin Wei was decided by the Holy Emperor and Mr. Huang. There must be a deeper meaning to this matter!
Now there is the rebellion of Tianjin Wei first, and then the defeat of Liuhe. The two armies of Jiannu and slaves invade the border. It is the time for us to unite as one. How can we fight against each other in the same room! I also ask you all to put the overall situation first, put aside your anger temporarily, and tide over the difficulties together! "
Yang Lian walked out with a cold face and said: "Zuo Yizhi! You are clinging to Huang Xiao and the eunuchs, and everyone in the civil and military dynasties despises you! Today we are asking for orders for the people and killing traitors for the country. If you have a trace of Those who are patriotic and loyal to the emperor should join us in petitioning now instead of standing here and making fun of others!"
Zuo Guangdou was so angry that he was trembling and speechless.
Liu Mao sighed, laughed loudly, and stepped forward to push Zuo Guangdou away.
Zuo Guangdou looked at the ministers swarming out and couldn't turn around in one breath.
In the main hall, only Zuo Guangdou stood alone, feeling so lonely and helpless.
Like Spinach, he felt miserable and had to work overtime, twice a day.
