Chapter 346 Eunuch Wei who knows how to punish villains
Zheng Haizhu showed a sudden look of flourishing: "In addition to earning money and beating with red hair, I like to think about the whole person's work, my father -in -law said," I listen. "
"Hey!" Wei Zhongxian's eyebrows were dancing, "Didn't Madam tell me, Old Wei, not to use the arrogant methods of ruffians against Ding Yun? We just thought that they would like to spread rumors about others, so we also Tooth for tooth. Coincidentally, Madam’s good friend, Mr. Huang..."
When Wei Zhongxian was happy and spilled the beans, he immediately stopped and his face was filled with sarcasm.
The "Master Huang" he mentioned was Huang Zunsu.
Last autumn, Zheng Haizhu recommended to Zhu Changluo that Huang Zunsu be transferred to Tianjin. This young official with excellent political performance over the years, based on his experience in Songjiang Switch, built Tianjin Customs to connect trade between North Korea and Japan.
After the Ningbo Tribute Incident during the Jiajing Period, the Ming Empire had banned Japan's exploration and trade for many years. Later, the Wanli Korean War broke out, and the hostility towards Japan and Japan was always high. But Zhu Changluo heard Zheng Haizhu say that Japan produced silver. and copper, and the news that Fujian maritime merchants had made a fortune through sea trade with Japan. After asking Wang An and other giants, they decided to use Tianjin as a pilot project. Huang Zunsu was also promoted to Tianjin's Inspector General in the twelfth lunar month and became a civil servant of the Military Beidao A member of the system came to Tianjin to operate the fourth customs house of the dynasty in this world.
At this moment, Zheng Haizhu smiled contemptuously at Wei Zhongxian: "Eunuch Wei, there is no need to be embarrassed. We can understand with our toes that Huang Zunsu is in charge of the switch in Tianjin, and there will be rumors in the court. It is me, an old friend, who is trying to trouble him." I'm here for a good job. If you have a good relationship, it means you will be kind to each other. That's right, I will be good friends with any person who can serve as an official and be worthy of his salary and money, and who can bring something real to the purses of the court and the people, including you, Eunuch Wei."
Wei Zhongxian held the corner of his mouth and agreed, thinking, damn, this woman is indeed quite thick-skinned.
On the other hand, he made a serious tone: "Well, Mr. Huang, this is indeed a vigorous and resolute action. In the first month of the year, I asked the Ministry of Industry for funds. The Ministry of Industry did not allocate funds to build the three main halls last year. If there is still money, I will ask the Ministry of Household Affairs." They want money. The Ministry of Revenue says they have no money, and the Ministry of Works bullies them. It’s really ridiculous. You, the Ministry of Revenue, say they can’t get the money, but it’s like a brothel owner who can’t send a bitch.”
Zheng Haizhu looked at Wei Zhongxian and sighed: "After all, we are all Jinshi. When there is a quarrel about money, everyone will be polite."
Wei Zhongxian chuckled and said: "But we, Old Wei, looked at this joke and suddenly came up with an idea. The Ministry of Household Affairs, if we are usually pressed into a hurry by the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Industry, these money-spending yamen, I will transfer the silver reserves from the treasury of various states and counties. This time, I asked a clerk named Jin to transfer the silver from Henan Prefecture. It happened that this person had an official, and his uncle was also on duty in the palace, so I knew this My nephew has often been greedy for money through the transfer of state and county reserves. I immediately got a secret letter and sent it to Liu Ke Gallery."
Zheng Haizhu listened attentively, and his eyes flashed: "Ding Yun, it is the Hu Ke who is responsible for inspecting the official affairs of the Ministry of Household Affairs and impeaching the officials of the Ministry of Household Affairs. Now, like a bloodthirsty shark, it has taken your bait?"
Wei Zhongxian gave a thumbs up: "That's right. Besides, the minister of the household department is a disciple of Donglin, and this Ding Yun is a direct descendant of Fang Congzhe and Yao Zongwen of the Zhejiang Party. He will definitely jump out and bite the household department hard. Guess again, madam,
Where is the official from the Ministry of Revenue who is suspected of embezzling money and hoarding money being imprisoned?"
Zheng Haizhu thought for a while: "The Ministry of Punishment doesn't care about this. Luo Sigong of Beizhen Fusi has a good relationship with the Ministry of Husbandry, and Ding Yun has always been in cahoots with people in the inner court. So, does Ding Yun insist on remonstrating and let Dongchang come?"
Torture?”
"Exactly," Wei Zhongxian said more and more proudly, "but what Ding Yun doesn't know is that Lu Shou, Eunuch Lu, the eunuch who was originally in charge of Dongchang, was favored by the late emperor and Zheng Guifei, so Long live the Lord will be dismissed after the new year.
He retired from old age and returned to his hometown. Dongchang was a time when there were no tigers in the mountains and monkeys were kings. Among those monkeys, there was naturally my brother, Old Wei, who wanted to be his boss. This brother took Old Wei's fishing pole and continued to seduce Ding Yun.
, told him that the corrupt officials could not endure the torture and wanted to confess the crimes of the senior officials, but they were only willing to meet with Hu Keyan. When the official said, he asked Ding Yun to beat the Dengwen drum for him. Alas, Ding Yun heard this and became famous.
When Li Wan's opportunity came, he entered Dongchang like a burning person, and then, that greedy little official died in front of Ding Yun."
Wei Zhongxian is like a storyteller asking for rewards, picking up the rhythm and shaking out the baggage layer by layer.
Zheng Haizhu understood it now and asked directly: "Dongchang said that Ding Yun ordered the followers to torture and beat to death the small official of the Ministry of Revenue. Can the Lord Long Live and the cabinet ministers believe it?"
"Believe it, why don't you believe it? Who told Ding Yun that he is Fang Congzhe's man?" Wei Zhongxian said with a wink.
Zheng Haizhu also curled up his lips heartily: "That's right, from the heart of the emperor to the hearts of the ministers, no one cares about the situation in prison. It's just that catching Ding Yun, a pawn of the Zhejiang Party, is just the right thing to do.
Make a fuss."
"That's it." Wei Zhongxian's face was full of excitement as he recalled all the good shows. He came closer and said softly, "A lot of these scholars are actually just outsiders. When they heard the gongs to suppress the Zhejiang Party, they jumped up immediately.
When they came out, some accused Fang Congzhe of instructing Dongchang to kill several witnesses of the attack case to cover up Concubine Zheng. Some accused Yao Zongwen of having a smuggling fleet in Ningbo, which specialized in doing business with the Frankies of Shuangyu Island.
Buy and sell. Alas, if my wife hadn’t told us, Old Wei, to vent her bad anger on you this time, we, Old Wei, wouldn’t have been able to see such a wonderful gathering.”
Zheng Haizhu suddenly darkened his face: "No matter whether Ding Yun is deprived of his status as a civilian or goes to jail, his life is still there. But that little official from the Ministry of Household Affairs, just because you want to frame Ding Yun, his life will be put in danger."
If you leave it in Dongchang, I won't be able to sleep at night."
Wei Zhongxian was well prepared, with an expression of "Auntie, please take it easy": "We, Old Wei, know that Madam has a Bodhisattva heart. Not to mention the official in the Ministry of Household Affairs, who collected the wool from the treasury. In the Taizu Dynasty, the skin was peeled off.
Let’s just say that apart from being greedy, he is not a thing. We have inquired about it early in the morning. In the past, he went to other states to collect money, and asked his parents to give him a yellow girl as a concubine. Otherwise, he would return to Beijing to sue.
The local magistrate is so unreasonable. He is just a bastard. We are only doing harm to the people. Madam, why can't you sleep?"
Zheng Haizhu nodded and said with a sincere face: "That's good. Eunuch Wei, when we punish people, we mainly punish villains. We must not get addicted to it, as it will damage our moral character. Okay, I owe you for this matter.
I must return this personal favor to you decently."
Wei Zhongxian weighed it. This woman returned to Beijing from an envoy and looked very high-spirited. I heard that she had defeated the Tatars of Zhenglan Banner in the previous half. She must have been praised by the imperial prelude. She must hold on tight.
her thighs.
He then hurriedly continued to flatter: "Oh, Madam, what you said is too outrageous. Madam thinks highly of me, Old Wei, and sends me to do things. It is our dignity."
