Chapter 149 The Carpenter Emperor Collapses!

Even though he was envious, Tong Lian hurriedly bowed and said, "In this Jinan Mansion, Su Qianhu must take the lead in such a big deal."

If possible, their Tong family also wanted to build their own, but now all over the place are building a temple for Wei Zhongxian, but others are either the governor or the governor takes the lead. In front of these big names, their Tong family is nothing. At most, their Tong family has a little reputation in Jinan Prefecture and is not qualified to build a temple for Wei Zhongxian. Even if it has been built with great effort, it will not be heard from Wei Zhongxian.

However, Su Hao is different. With Su Hao's reputation in Wei Zhongxian, as long as Su Hao is willing to be famous, the matter will definitely reach Wei Zhongxian's ears, and their Tong family will also benefit from it.

"Let's discuss this matter again."

Hearing Tong Lian's words, Su Hao waved his hand. Although Wei Zhongxian's power is at its peak now, he knew very well that Wei Zhongxian would not be glorious for long. He remembered that Zhu Youxiao died in August in his previous life, and Wei Zhongxian was sent to Fengyang in November, and later he sent someone to pursue him. Therefore, Wei Zhongxian was forced to commit suicide before he even left Beizhili.

Of course, no one in the Ming Dynasty could have thought that the carpenter emperor would die young, and the powerful Nine Thousand Years would end up committing suicide in three months.

"Su Qianhu..."

Seeing that Su Hao really had no intention of making a breakthrough, Tong Lian was anxious. Now Wei Zhongxian was at its peak. As long as Wei Zhongxian was still alive, the Ming Dynasty would be the world of Wei Zhongxian. Now there is such a good relationship as Su Hao, and after two years, when Su Hao was transferred, their Tong family would have no chance to get into Wei Zhongxian's relationship.

"President Tong Qianhu, the building of the Sheng Temple is just a pick-up of people's teeth."

Seeing Tong Lian want to say something, Su Hao shook his head and chuckled: "Did Tong Deputy Qianhu forget about the Kong family cursing a few days ago?"

"this………"

When Su Hao said this, Tong Lian was speechless. They were all from Shandong. How could he not know such a big thing? The cause was that half a month ago, a student of the Imperial College was named Lu Wanling. He actually submitted a memorial to propose that a temple of Wei Zhongxian be built on the west side of the Imperial College, to worship Confucius with Wei Zhongxian and to worship Confucius' father with Wei's father.

This rebellious proposal made the Kong family almost angry and bit their back teeth. A eunuch who was in trouble with the world was so arrogant that he was slapping shit on the Kong family's face. However, facing the powerful Wei Zhongxian, the Kong family did not dare to object, and could only curse in Qufu in anger.

With such shameless Lu Wanling, he was really just a pick-up person in Jinan Prefecture. Even if Wei Zhongxian heard it, he would have entered his left ear and his right ear. Perhaps Su Hao could leave an impression on Wei Zhongxian.

However, after thinking for a while, Tong Lian gritted his teeth and said, "I hope Su Qianhu can take the lead."

Although this is likely to be a wedding dress for Su Hao, it is also good to be able to express his attitude to Wei Zhongxian. Wei Zhongxian is not a generous person. Hu Shirong, the Jizhou Dao, refused to stamp the letter of the temple, and Geng Ruqi, the Zunhua Dao, did not worship him because he entered the temple. The two censors were convicted of death.

Besides, there is no need to pay money to build a temple. The government office pays money to collect the land of the people. It is a matter of benefit but no expense. Why not do it?

"Director Tong Qianhu, this matter is not the only thing that the official said. Governor Li and Liang Buzheng may not be willing to spend this effort."

Upon hearing this, Su Hao was a little helpless. He said so clearly that Tong Lian refused to give up.

Tong Lian hurriedly said, "Don't worry, the governor Liang and Governor Li will go to persuade him."

"Director Tong Qianhu, you can ask the governor Liang and Governor Li to prepare the money needed to build the sacred temple. How to build this sacred temple will be discussed carefully then."

After thinking for a while, Su Hao said calmly: "Since you, Deputy Tong Qianhu, insisted on building this sanctuary, and I don't want to be the kind of person who picks up people's wisdom, then the sanctuary must be built ingeniously and attractive enough."

Wei Zhongxian will be in a few months. He is ready to rebel. He will take down Jinan Prefecture by then, and all the money will be his. If he is stupid, he will spend more than 100,000 taels of silver to build a temple for Wei Zhongxian.

"Su Qianhu is thoughtful, so let's make arrangements now."

Hearing Su Hao's words, Tong Lian quickly responded.

………

As time passed by little by little, everyone was thinking of various ways to flatter Wei Zhongxian. In mid-July, a rumor spread in the capital.

Your Majesty is sick now, and he is very ill!

For a moment, the entire capital was undercurrents, one emperor and another minister. Now Wei Zhongxian relies on Zhu Youxiao and is in power all over the world. If Zhu Youxiao dies, it is still unknown whether Wei Zhongxian can continue to maintain this power.

The most important thing is that the current Majesty has no descendants, and the one who is most intimate with His Majesty is the fifth brother of the Emperor, Zhu Youjian, and Zhu Youjian's teacher is Wen Zhenmeng of the Donglin Party. Under the guidance of Wen Zhenmeng, Zhu Youjian's impression of Wei Zhongxian can be imagined.

On August 12, Zhu Youxiao summoned the cabinet ministers and ministers at the Qianqing Palace, and issued an edict saying that Wei Zhongxian's loyalty to the emperor could be used to discuss national affairs, and this move was very intended to entrust an orphan.

A few days later, Zhu Youxiao summoned the fifth brother of the emperor, Wang Xin, and Zhu You, to check into the bedroom!

For a time, all the officials of the Donglin Party who survived in the court were overjoyed and even their steps became much lighter. The officials of the eunuch party were all worried. Wei Zhongxian's private house, which was originally busy, became much deserted in an instant. Except for the eunuch party officials, everyone chose to avoid suspicion.

On August 22nd, the emperor died in the Qianqing Palace!

For a moment, the entire capital was covered with white mourning!

On August 24th, King Xin Zhu Youjian ascended the throne.

………

Wei's House.

In the bedroom, Wei Zhongxian and Kebaba both had sad faces, especially Kebaba. They looked like they were aged teenagers and looked like an old woman in a few days.

"Hongo, what do you think next?"

Kebaba said sadly: "That little boy Zhu Youjian has no good impression of us. If he really wants to deal with us..."

Hearing Kebaba's words, Wei Zhongxian sighed in his heart. He had never thought that Zhu Youxiao would die young, so he had never taken Zhu Youjian a teenager seriously before. After all, the vassal kings of the Ming Dynasty had no power, and they would be able to throw the fiefdom in a few years.

So even though he knew that Wen Zhenmeng had been talking badly to Zhu Youjian, he never cared about it. But now that Zhu Youxiao died and Zhu Youjian became emperor, his situation became embarrassing.

"Before his death, His Majesty once told King Xin that we can believe it. I believe that even if King Xin does not listen to His Majesty, he will not do anything to us."

Wei Zhongxian shook his head and comforted himself: "At least there should be no problem spending his old age in peace."

"Really?"

Kebaba was overjoyed. Now she has accumulated extremely rich wealth and can live a life of delicacies even if she returns to her hometown.

Seeing Kebaba's appearance, Wei Zhongxian felt bitter. So what if it wasn't true? Although he was called Jiu Qiansui, the power in his hands all came from the emperor. Those eunuch party officials only depended on him for the sake of the emperor.

In the past two years, he has been arranging his confidants to important areas in various border towns, but the eunuch only has the power to supervise the military and does not have the power to control the military. He has no chance to rebel.

The Minister of War Cui Chengxiu also couldn't count on it. If Zhu Youxiao did not die, his order would work. But now the whole court knew that he was going to lose power, who would be willing to sink with his broken ship?

If Zhu Youjian clearly had to deal with the eunuch party, then the eunuch party officials might still stand together, but now Zhu Youjian has done nothing, what can he do?

Although he also controlled the imperial guards, it was meaningless. Even if Zhu Youjian was under house arrest, it was futile. Without Zhu Youjian, there were many vassal kings in various places. They could enter the palace in the name of clearing the emperor at any time. That imperial guards could not compete with everyone in the world.

Besides, Zhu Youxiao asked him to help Zhu Youjian before his death. Now Zhu Youjian has no intention of attacking him, so how could he be detrimental to Zhu Youjian first?

………

Jinan Prefecture Jinyiwei Yamen.

"Are you still dead?"

Look

As the news came from the capital, Su Hao sighed softly. As soon as the carpenter emperor died, Wei Zhongxian was almost the same.

After thinking for a while, Su Hao stood up and walked to the corridor. Looking north, it was his turn to take to the stage of the late Ming Dynasty. Although it was not the most suitable time to raise an army at this time, he did not want to escape in a sloppy manner.

Over the past year, five of his eight extraordinary meridians have been opened. As long as three more are opened, the meridians in the whole body are connected, and the realm of a martial arts master will be broken through. After breaking through to the martial arts master, as long as he does not frequently refine his energy and spirit into magic power in a short period of time, ordinary magic consumption is already within the scope of his body's tolerance.

It takes at most half a year to open the three meridians. It is only the end of August, and it will take two months before Wei Zhongxian falls. Zhu Youjian’s eunuch party in the Qingliu court will take at least one or two months. When it is their turn, at least half a year later. Before the imperial army gathers, he should be able to break through the realm of a martial arts master. With the strength of a martial arts master, even if the rebellion fails, he can escape easily.

Thinking of this, Su Hao walked back to the Book of the Book and started writing letters. Over the past year, he had exchanged more than 200 great achievements, and there were few opportunities to get rid of the wool of the imperial court. If he had not rebelled yet, all the great achievements he had exchanged for more than 200,000 taels of silver would become waste.

After writing the letter, Su Hao called Ding Zimo over.

"Zi Mo, you go to the capital and hand this letter to Fang Tongzhi for me. In addition, you can exchange these great merits for materials for your teacher. This is the list of materials."
