Wang Tong asked and looked up at Wei Chao again. Zhu Yijun's expression changed slightly, he stepped forward and asked: "Is it involving Zhang Jing or Zhang Cheng?" But it doesn’t matter. "
Wang Tong leaned over and said: "Yes. I have found out that Han Bixian committed suicide and went to Yang Wei's residence. Zhang Cheng was also at Yang Wei's residence at that time."
Zhu Yijun on the throne let out a "haha", and then asked: "Old Minister Yang - when did such a man of such a strict and honest attitude get together with Zhang Cheng?" Although this question was asked with a smile, the Wei Dynasty It was obvious that the emperor was gritting his teeth, which made his back tighten involuntarily.
Wang Tong swallowed again and said in a low voice: "As far as I know, Yang Shangshu is not familiar with Zhang Cheng. The reason why he went to Zhang Cheng's house is because Mr. Shen Ge visited him before."
The throne person laughed again: "How strange! It's only a hundred thousand taels of hair, and two ministers and a high eunuch are involved. It's wonderful! I wonder what conspiracy they are doing?"
"This minister has not investigated clearly."
"Wang Tong, do you dare to have treacherous intentions?" As the Wei Dynasty expected, the emperor threw the tea cup out of the throne and hit Wang Tong at his feet. There was a loud clang, which made the courtiers change their expressions. Wang Tong and Wang Xizhi were so frightened that they trembled.
"I don't dare, how can I dare? I don't dare to talk nonsense because I have no evidence."
"explain!"
Wang Tong's body trembled again. He wanted to look up at Yu Yan, but he held back. Big drops of sweat fell on the gold bricks. He organized his words, and then Fang replied:
"I would venture to speculate that Mr. Shen Ge might have been interested in Mr. Fengpan, and Zhang Cheng might have been interested in Zhang Jing. After some collusion, he was overthrown by Prince Zhongxing's death and failed to initiate action. At this time, except for our Internal Affairs Department, No one is here to stir up trouble - this is my conjecture, and the truth needs to be investigated in detail."
When Zhu Yijun heard this, he snorted again. He stared at Wang Tong with falcon-like eyes, as if to judge whether there was any other plan behind his speculation. Then he said coldly: "Then you continue to investigate."
Wang Tong whispered: "I obey the order." Wei Chao saw him lying on the ground and waiting for a long time, then bowed to the side and said: "Your Majesty, the palace door is about to be locked."
Zhu Yijun nodded and said nothing else. Wei Chao waved his hand gently to Wang Tong, and Wang Tong whispered: "I leave." Zhu Yijun hummed.
Wang Tong left the Yangxin Palace and trotted all the way before running out of the palace city before the palace door was locked. He sat in front of the carriage that had been waiting outside the palace gate, looked up at the starry sky, and let out a sigh of relief.
...
In the capital city in early summer, the night was as cold as water, and the lights inside Wang Tong's four-horse luxury car were brightly lit. As soon as he got on the carriage, the Security Bureau officer Xun Yue in the carriage handed him a thick stack of information, which was all for Wang Tong to pass through in person.
Wang Tong first slumped down in a soft chair and rubbed his face vigorously. After a while, he stood up and picked up a red pen to start marking.
Xun Yue tentatively said: "Junmen has a long time to meet the saint today, is it necessary? I have already seen these, there is nothing urgent, why not get up early tomorrow and read them again."
Wang Tong sighed first, and then said: "Tomorrow has things to do tomorrow, and today's things should be done today."
Xun Yue smiled and said: "The military sect is so dedicated and dedicated, so it makes sense that this holy family will not fade away - it is indeed a role model for our generation."
Hearing Xun Yue talk about the Holy Family, Wang Tong frowned unnoticeably. Then he stopped writing and sighed with a half-smile: "Holy family, hehe, holy family!"
...
Two days later, it will be Xiaoman in the 14th year of Wanli. Regarding the matter, Jia Sanjin consulted Yang Wei, the minister of the Ministry of Culture and Education, who was confused and failed to complete the examination. The emperor's instructions were handed over to the court for discussion.
Yang Wei was already seventy years old, and according to the regulations, he could start his official career in six months. However, he was criticized and slapped in the face by the emperor in an almost humiliating way. Most of the courtiers were baffled. There is a clear guess that Yang Shangshu hated the emperor for something, but no one knows the specific reason.
Yang Shangshu was a veteran of three dynasties and had a high reputation in the court. He passed the imperial examination at the age of thirty-two. Because he had violated the strict party at that time, he was transferred to the Yanmen Army to prepare the road and guard Pingxing Pass.
Afterwards, Yang Wei and Ma Fang made many military exploits and were promoted very quickly. Emperor Jiajing relied on them to serve as border officials. Later, because his old mother was old, he returned to his hometown many times to support her - three times he returned to his hometown, and he was recalled by the court three times, which showed that he was of the highest quality in both work and life.
Yang Wei's third revolt was caused by Zhang Juzheng. At that time, Wang Jiaping was on a mission to Europe, so Yang Wei took over as Minister of Culture and Education. Now disgusted by the emperor, he heard that Yang Shangshu was in tears and immediately submitted his resignation.
When the resignation was sent to the Yangxin Hall, the emperor immediately approved it because of his advanced age. However, he did not mention the honorary benefits that almost all retirees above the minister's level would receive. After receiving the order, Yang Wei did not dare to shed tears in front of the angel for fear of being slandered by resentment. He kowtowed and thanked him and prepared to leave the capital without mentioning it.
The old man has a tall cliff. To outsiders, he has almost the same relationship with all the prime ministers and deputy prime ministers of the political hall. Although Pan Sheng was in charge of him, he didn't know why he was offended. He asked Zhang Siwei side by side at the political hall. Zhang Siwei showed a mysterious smile on his face and pointed in the direction of Shen Shixing's official residence, but didn't say a word more.
Pan Sheng couldn't figure it out, so he pretended to wander to Shen Shixing's office to inquire, but he saw that Vice Prime Minister Shen was always wandering around - answering questions that didn't fit the question, and talked nonsense for a long time, but Pan Sheng still couldn't figure it out.
Supposedly, the most important policy issue nowadays is the emperor’s tax reform, but what does it have to do with the Ministry of Culture and Education? Pan Sheng was full of questions, but he was also a courageous person - although Yang Wei was offended and left Beijing, Pan Sheng still dared to give him a gift.
When they arrived at the Yang Mansion, they saw that Yang Shangshu's luggage had all been packed and packed. Pan Sheng was polite to him and asked him directly what he had done to offend the emperor. When Yang Wei saw the question, he turned pale at first and didn't answer. Then he said earnestly, "A certain person acted carelessly and was not suitable for communicating with the internal officials. It is a blessing to be able to get Chiyi. Mr. Shui Lian should be careful."
Although he didn't ask for details, Pan Sheng still left in fear. The day after Yang Wei left Beijing, Zhang Cheng, the imperial concubine, was sent to Xiaoling - this also proved that what Yang Wei said was true.
After Pan Sheng entered the political hall, for the first time he was treated as a loser because of information asymmetry. This melon was very raw, and he was confused when he ate it. He was confused here, but he didn't know that the emperor sighed a few times in the Yangxin Hall because he had been clueless in recent days.
Pan Sheng's dog meatballs couldn't be served on the table, so Zhang Siwei could only continue to work as prime minister. Since Zhang Siwei continued to work, Shen Shixing should also stay - so the situation in the inner and outer court soon became calm, and the government did not experience any fluctuations due to Yang Wei's resignation and Zhang Cheng's downfall.
But as one of the few people who already stood at the top, Pan Sheng always felt as if he had lost something, and he was haunted for a long time.
...
In June of the 14th year of Wanli, King Huang Taiji of Shunyi passed away, but the grassland remained calm. The elite troops of Monan Mongolia have followed the east and west armies to attack the north, and everyone is focusing all their energy on the loot brought back. A large number of furs have begun to enter the circulation field, and the astonishing profits have made the eyes of the Mongolian princes red.
In August of the 14th year of Wanli, Liang Wenmeng reported that Shanxi's disaster relief work was successful. This year's harvest in Shanxi was a foregone conclusion. The emperor was overjoyed to receive the report, and greatly praised the ministers of the Political Affairs Hall. He also transferred Liang Wenmeng to Beijing to take over the post of Minister of Culture and Education, which had been vacant for two months due to Yang Wei's resignation.
Liang Wenmeng worked hard for two years in Shanxi. In the first year, he went all out to provide disaster relief and was exhausted. In the second year, he tried his best to resume agricultural production and stripped the skin again. He plans to work hard for another year next year and get three layers of skin. After stripping it off, it was worthy of the conscience of heaven and earth and the appreciation of the emperor.
But he didn't expect that the good news came, that he went straight to the central government and got the high position of minister. He was overjoyed - it can be seen that after doing this work, he did nothing for others. In the final analysis, he was the one who benefited.
