Liu Yishuo said: "If my father-in-law is here for this matter, there is no need to say more. As a Hakka, it is not suitable to continue to stay in the palace."
"Mrs. Fengsheng has not done anything evil. Why do you two adults have to force each other to drive Mrs. Fengsheng out of the palace?" Wei Zhongxian's words were mixed with a hint of pleading.
Madam Feng Sheng was his assistant in the palace. Now he can dominate Wang An in front of the emperor. Most of the credit here is due to Madam Feng Sheng. If Madam Feng Sheng leaves the palace, Wang An and his people will definitely take advantage of it. If he counterattacks, he will be alone in the palace.
Wang An was supported by the Donglin Party outside the palace and had the legacy of the late emperor in the palace. He was the most powerful father-in-law in the palace, almost comparable to Feng Bao during the Wanli period.
And Wei Zhongxian only has the favor of the emperor. If he loses even this, his end will be much more miserable than that of Li Xuanshi before long.
At this time, he began to resent these Donglin Party members. In order to maintain Wang An's position in the inner court, these Donglin Party members did not hesitate to sacrifice him and the Hakka family.
You must know that Wang An was the chamberlain who served the late emperor, and he and the Hakka family served him when the current emperor was still the grandson of the emperor.
In terms of closeness, he was closer to Hakka and the emperor than Wang An was to the emperor.
Han Xu sneered and said: "The Holy One should be close to the virtuous ministers and far away from the villains. For those of you who are flattering the Holy One, how can I keep you by the Holy One's side to deceive the Holy One's ears? The arrangements for leaving the palace are already based on the merits of your many years of serving the Holy One. "
Wei Zhongxian's heart sank when he heard this.
He was just following the Emperor's side, and he thought he had done nothing to cause wrath. He had defended the Donglin Party in front of the Emperor, but now he had become the favored person of the Donglin Party. Villain.
Liu Yishui noticed Wei Zhongxian's ugly expression and said, "Eunuch Wei, the Hakka family's departure from the palace is irreversible. I hope you can persuade the Hakka family not to miss him anymore."
Wei Zhongxian's expression changed several times, and he forced a smile and said: "Our family knows that Wang Daguan is quite close to the two adults. If the two adults don't dislike it, our family can also help in the palace."
Snapped!
Han Xu clapped the table at hand and said with an angry face: "You are so brave to collude with the foreign court. It seems that I have no choice but to keep you. During the ten-day break, I will definitely ask the emperor to have you punished." This flattering eunuch."
This time he was really angry, and even Liu Yishen's face looked very ugly.
Colluding with the eunuchs of the inner court is a disgrace to the officials of the outer court. If word spreads, the censor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate will definitely impeach him.
What's more, they looked down on Wei Zhongxian from the bottom of their hearts, a vulgar person like Wei Zhongxian who was illiterate.
The reason why the Donglin Party is willing to accept Wang An is because Wang An is also a knowledgeable person, and his knowledge is not weaker than that of many members of the Donglin Party. More importantly, Wang An is an old friend of Guangzong, and he has made mistakes in the matter of Li Xuanshi. Because of their strength, they were willing to associate with Wang An, and at the same time they also wanted to imitate Feng Bao and Zhang Juzheng.
But Wei Zhongxian was just the opposite. He was an illiterate and vulgar man who helped Li Xuanshi detain the then-Crown Prince and now the Holy Emperor. Now he got the Eunuch Bingbi, the Superintendent of Ceremonies, through flattery.
As members of the Donglin Party, they consider themselves upright and have a clean reputation. From the bottom of their hearts they despise a vulgar person like Wei Zhongxian, let alone associate with him.
Wei Zhongxian, who was sitting in his seat, felt hot in his lower abdomen when he heard that Han Xu was going to ask for an order to kill him at the Qing Dynasty meeting, and he almost lost his etiquette in public.
While he was scared in his heart, he hated these Donglin Party members even more.
As both internal officials, Wang An had the trust of Donglin Party members like them, but he had bent down to please him, but instead he was scolded by Han Shangshu in front of him, and even wanted to kill him. This made him feel that these things The Lin Party members are too overbearing.
Han Xu turned to look at Liu Yishen and said: "Brother Ji Hui, why are people like this still staying in the house? You are not afraid of violating taboos. If I were you, I would have sent someone to drive them out."
Wei Zhongxian's expression changed when he heard this.
Although he didn't know a few big words, he could still understand that Han Xu was trying to drive him away.
At this time, he had no choice but to look at Liu Yishui to see how the other party chose and whether he was following Han Xu's wishes.
After all, the other party is also the chief assistant, the boss of the Donglin Party, and this is the Liu Mansion. To drive people away, the chief assistant in front of him has to say something.
If Liu Yishen really followed Han Xu's wishes and kicked him out of the Liu Mansion, then his visit this time would be in vain, and there would be no room for change in the Hakka family's affairs.
When everyone looked over, Liu Yishen did not hesitate and said directly: "If father-in-law is here for the Hakka matter, then there is no need to say more, please come back!"
"Is there really no room for negotiation?" Wei Zhongxian asked again, unwilling to give up.
Liu Yishen shook his head slightly.
Driving the Hakka family out of the palace and supporting Wang An is something that the Donglin Party members have already decided on. As long as the dynasty proposes it, it is naturally impossible to regret it. The most important thing is that Wang An is the Donglin Party member in the palace. partner.
Han Xu said with a cold face: "You are a treacherous villain. I will definitely impeach you during the Qing Dynasty. Please ask the Holy One to kill you, the eunuch who flatters the master of trouble."
Sitting in his seat, Wei Zhongxian's face turned redder with anger.
Knowing that this time not only did things fail, but he was also humiliated by these Donglin Party members.
"You don't need to rush us, we can go on our own." Wei Zhongxian stood up from his seat, walked out of the study angrily, and went straight to the sedan chair in the courtyard.
Liu Yishen looked at the sedan leaving and said softly: "Brother Yu Chen, what you just said was a little too much."
Han Xu disapproved and said: "Such a flattering eunuch who stays with the Holy One will sooner or later deceive the Holy One. As officials of the imperial court, we should root out such treacherous villains."
Seeing Han Xu say this, Liu Yishen remained silent.
After sitting in the position of chief assistant, he realized that despite Fang Zhonghan's hardships, this position was not as easy as he thought before.
……………………
Wei Zhongxian rode the sedan without stopping all the way, and went straight out of the Liu Mansion gate and onto the street outside.
The boy who was following the sedan said through the curtain of the sedan: "Father-in-law, shall we go back to the palace?"
"Go back to the palace... no, go to Shopkeeper Wang." Wei Zhongxian said from inside the sedan.
The boy agreed and turned to give instructions to the bearer carrying the sedan.
The bearers carried the sedan through an alley and to another street.
It is said to be a street, but it is actually an alley, with a Wansong Old Man's Tower in the end. However, Wei Zhongxian's sedan did not go to Wansong Old Man's Tower, but stopped in front of a courtyard gate further ahead.
Today, a monk named Le'an lives in this Wansong Old Man's Pagoda.
