Why did the Minister of the Ministry of Finance tell the Sixteenth Son of the Emperor at this time that the left minister of the Ministry of War was actually his man? The reason was probably that they wanted to forge evidence to frame the Minister of the Ministry of War...
The Ministry of War of Shangshu Province has one Minister of War and two Ministers of War. Among the left and right ministers, the left minister is the most respected.
In other words, the Zuo Shilang of the Ministry of War is equivalent to the deputy chief of the Ministry of War. Jin Zhenghan fabricated evidence to frame Xuanyuan Tianhen. This Zuo Shilang is definitely the best candidate.
In summary, Zhou Xingyun naturally understood why Wang Yushi also came to the back garden to meet the emperor's sixteenth son.
The Imperial Censor can be said to be the highest official of the supervisory agency. His task is to supervise all civil and military officials. If the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue wants to forge evidence to frame the Minister of the Ministry of War, Wang Yushi will naturally be able to help him.
The Minister of the Ministry of War, Zuo Shilang, forged evidence to frame the Minister of the Ministry of War, the Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs impeached and reported the matter, and the imperial censor made an appraisal, investigated and handled the case. It was a one-stop service, and it was useless for Xuanyuan Tianhen to find Mr. Bao to redress his grievances.
Zhou Xingyun calculated with his fingers and found out that he had actually figured out the conspiracy of Lord Shangshu of the Ministry of Revenue. He was so smart that the Sixteenth Prince of the Emperor regarded him as a living god, which was not wrong at all.
"Zhou Aiqing..."
"Your Majesty, why don't you let the minister guess the plan of the Minister of the Ministry of Finance?"
The Sixteenth Prince of the Emperor was about to tell Zhou Xingyun about Jin Zhenghan's premeditated plan, but Zhou Xingyun interrupted in a pretentious manner, and methodically "guessed" the results of his analysis to the Sixteenth Prince of the Emperor.
"Master Zhou knows things like a god, everything is as you said." Wang Yushi praised naively. This morning, the Minister of Hubu came to the Sixteenth Emperor's Mansion and encouraged the Sixteenth Emperor to impeach the Minister of War. The Sixteenth Emperor sent someone to invite
He came to discuss it together, so he knew Jin Zhenghan's plan very well.
"Excellent." Zhou Xingyun only came up with the idea of the Secretary of the Ministry of Finance based on his rich 'life experience'. After all... if it were him, he would do Xuanyuan Tianhen like this. Once the matter is completed, the Minister of War, Zuo Shilang, will take over.
If he is the Minister of the Ministry of War, then he will be like a tiger with even more wings, and he can capture both the Ministry of Household and the Ministry of War.
Like father, like daughter, like daughter, like father. Both father and daughter are ambitious and unwilling to rely on others.
"Zhou Aiqing, what do you think I should do to keep Xuanyuan Shangshu?" The Sixteenth Emperor never thought that in the past he had tried every means to kill the Xuanyuan family, but now he would do the opposite and go out of his way to help Xuanyuan Tianhen.
Protect and protect.
Unfortunately, he cannot blatantly protect Xuanyuan Tianhen, otherwise the people from the prince's faction will know that they are colluding, and things will become more complicated and worse.
Currently, the Empress Dowager saved Xuanyuan Fengxue because Fengtian City obstructed Baize Tiangong, and she is suspicious of Xuanyuan Tianhen and the Sixteenth Son of the Emperor.
However, suspicion is suspicion. Without definite evidence that the Xuanyuan family has defected, the Empress Dowager will not act rashly. After all, if Taifu Xu and others were to know about the defection of the Minister of War, the people would be panicked and the military morale would be in chaos.
Therefore, the Minister of Household Affairs, who was seemingly the confidant of the Sixteenth Emperor, became a crucial figure and could play a key role in impeaching Xuanyuan Tianhen...
A few days ago, Zhou Xingyun took out the forged memorials of Xuanyuan Chongwu and deceived Jin Run'er and the Sixteenth Emperor. He told Jin Run'er that he would not give the Xuanyuan family's memorial to the Sixteenth Emperor, so Jin Run'er
His father misjudged the strategy and thought that the Sixteenth Emperor didn't know that Xuanyuan Tianhen wanted to join him, so he was so calm and consulted with the Sixteenth Emperor.
The sixteenth son of the emperor received the forged memorial from Xuanyuan Chongwu from Zhou Xingyun, and mistakenly believed that Xuanyuan Tianhen had signed a pledge of surrender and defected to him. Now Jin Zhenghan is eager to eradicate the Xuanyuan family, which is what Zhou Xingyun had speculated before.
Eighty-nine out of ten, he completely surrendered to the Empress Dowager and was ordered by the Empress Dowager...
The thoughts of Jin Runer's father and the thoughts of the Sixteenth Prince of the Emperor were cleverly guided by Zhou Xingyun into the logical circuit arranged by him, and the result became...
Jin Zhenghan thought that the sixteenth son of the emperor did not know that the Xuanyuan family had surrendered, so he impeached the Xuanyuan family. The sixteenth son of the emperor thought that the Xuanyuan family had surrendered, but Jin Zhenghan turned to the empress dowager, and was encouraged by the decree to deal with the mysterious situation of the Xuanyuan family.
In addition, the Sixteenth Prince of the Emperor cannot tell Jin Zhenghan that Xuanyuan Tianhen has surrendered to him, so you should not impeach him. Because Jin Zhenghan is the target of suspicion, he cannot tell such an important secret to someone who may or even has already
The one who betrayed him.
If this is the case, the Sixteenth Prince of the Emperor might as well speak in defense of Xuanyuan Tianhen in the court and let everyone know that the Minister of War has surrendered. The reason why the Sixteenth Emperor of the Emperor does not openly defend Xuanyuan Tianhen is that he hopes to use him as a leader when necessary.
The secret card that always determines the outcome.
As mentioned above, the Sixteenth Prince of the Emperor now has a headache and has no idea how to help Xuanyuan Tianhen resolve the crisis.
"The emperor can comply with Jin Shangshu's wishes and help him impeach Xuanyuan Shangshu. Anyway, it is up to Wang Yushi to decide whether he will be convicted in the end. Knowing that the evidence is forged, is the emperor still afraid that he will not be able to clear Xuanyuan Shangshu?" Zhou Xingyun secretly said
smiled.
"But what's the point of doing this?" The Sixteenth Prince of the Emperor didn't quite understand what benefit Zhou Xingyun's arrangement would bring to them. Let the Minister of Hubu impeach the Minister of the Ministry of War, and finally prove that the Minister of the Ministry of War was innocent. At most, it would kill a leftist of the Ministry of War.
Minister...Jin Zhenghan can completely shirk responsibility.
"Your Majesty, please don't forget that this minister is your double agent, and his situation in the court is very delicate. Many people believe that I am a benevolent doctor, honest and loyal, and that I am the counselor you and the Grand Tutor are competing against. I will impeach you.
The Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, to save the Minister of the Ministry of War who was wronged, there is no problem with emotion or reason." Zhou Xingyun really wanted to tell the sixteenth son of the emperor directly, with my nature of being a corrupt official, how could I find nothing to do and do something that is difficult and unprofitable?
Activities.
"Lord Zhou, I dare to ask how you plan to impeach Shangshu Jin? And how to rescue Shangshu Xuanyuan?" Wang Yushi said straight to the point to Zhou Xingyun that Shangshu of Hubu is a cautious and leak-proof guy. The left and right ministers of Hubu are both Jin Zhenghan.
His confidants, if they wanted to fabricate evidence to frame him, to be honest... it would be very difficult.
"Wang Yushi, it took a lot of effort to fabricate evidence of his crimes. Don't you still know about his corruption and perversion of the law? Just collect his evidence."
"It's easy for adults to say..." Wang Yushi smiled bitterly and shook his head. He had just told Zhou Xingyun that Jin Zhenghan was an impeccable guy, and it was not easy to collect evidence of his crime.
"Oh, Wang Yushi, don't shake your head, have you ever heard of Governor Huo of Hangyu City?" Zhou Xingyun showed an intriguing smile.
"Zhou Aiqing, do you know the whereabouts of Governor Huo?" The Sixteenth Emperor was overjoyed. After all, Jin Zhenghan was his former confidant, and he understood his situation very well.
Governor Huo of Hangyu City has evidence of Jin Zhenghan's corruption and perversion of the law. A few months ago, he asked Wang Yushi to help Jin Zhenghan frame Governor Huo.
"To be honest, I heard about the whereabouts of Governor Huo a few days ago and ordered people to collect evidence of corruption and perversion of the law by the Minister of Revenue. However, Governor Huo was deeply afraid that the person I sent was the Minister of Revenue, Eagle Dog, so
It will still take some time, but Wei Chen believes that evidence of the Minister of Revenue's violation of the law will be available soon..."
"Okay! I'm very relieved about Zhou Aiqing's work."
Zhou Xingyun was strategizing and prepared for the rainy day. He had already sent people to inquire about the whereabouts of Governor Huo and collected evidence of the Minister of Household Affairs' violation of the law. Jin Zhenghan was not wronged.
"Your Majesty, I will still need Wang Yushi's cooperation when the time comes." Zhou Xingyun said his plan step by step.
Jin Zheng Han, the Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs, impeached the Minister of the Ministry of War and framed Xuanyuan Tianhen for his injustice. Zhou Xingyun showed up as a fair and upright person and revealed that Jin Zhenghan's evidence of framing Xuanyuan Tianhen was actually perjury! After Wang Yushi's appraisal, it was proved that the Ministry of War
Shangshu is innocent...
As a result, Jin Zhenghan could only knock out her front teeth and swallow it, honestly admit that she had wronged a good person, and accept the blame from the Empress Dowager.
Of course, since Jin Zhenghan took the initiative to deal with Xuanyuan Tianhen under the orders of the Empress Dowager, the Empress Dowager will definitely give him leniency.
At this moment, Zhou Xingyun could show the evidence that the Minister of the Ministry of Finance was embezzling and bending the law, and further pursued and beat him, making the Minister of the Ministry of Finance add guilt to his crime, and completely tripped up Jin Zhenghan.
"When the time comes, I hope the emperor will give his support and help me." Zhou Xingyun's second step plan was stated simply and clearly.
At this moment, the Sixteenth Prince of the Emperor and Wang Yushi finally understood Zhou Xingyun's intention.
The sixteenth son of the emperor and the royal censor, as dignitaries in the court, often quarreled with others on a daily basis. Zhou Xingyun now made it so clear that they should be clear even if they were fools. This was Zhou Xingyun's elaborate design, one link after another, one after another.
Deducted chain meter!
Zhou Xingyun's last sentence, helping Wei Chen, is not as simple as impeaching Jin Zheng Han, because it is Wang Yushi's job to confirm the evidence of the crime.
Zhou Xingyun's need for help from the Sixteenth Prince was nothing more than a hint that when he succeeded in stumbling over Jin Zhenghan, he hoped that the Sixteenth Prince would recommend him to take over the job of Minister of Household Affairs.
Since the left and right ministers of the Ministry of Household Affairs are both members of the Minister of Household Affairs, it seems that it is not conducive to the Emperor's Sixteenth Prince to let them take over the position of the Minister of Household Affairs. Because the Emperor's Sixteenth Prince cannot confirm which side these two people will turn to.
, if they had already been related to the Empress Dowager, the situation would not be good. Therefore, it is the best choice for the Sixteenth Prince of the Emperor to recommend his confidants to take over as Minister of the Ministry of Finance, and Zhou Xingyun is undoubtedly the best candidate.
After all, the plan went smoothly. At that time, Zhou Xingyun had meritorious service in rehabilitating the Minister of War and in reporting the Minister of Hubu. The two major achievements were combined into one, and the limelight was unstoppable.
In addition, Taifu Xu and others may not be able to figure out the situation. Zhou Xingyun overthrew Jin Zhenghan, the confidant of the Sixteenth Prince of the Emperor, and he also recommended Zhou Xingyun to take over the position of the Ministry of Household Affairs. However, compared to letting Jin Zhenghan's confidant take over, Taifu Xu and others
People will definitely agree that Zhou Xingyun is competent and it will be more beneficial to them.
"Your Majesty, according to the official's opinion, you don't need to help me too much. The minister will try to get Taifu Xu or Xuanyuan Shangshu to recommend him. You only need to help the official appropriately." Zhou Xingyun would not tell Huang Shiliu.
Prince, he already had a suitable candidate in mind, and elected him to take over as Minister of Household Affairs at the critical moment. As long as the Sixteenth Prince of the Emperor did not interfere, he would be promoted and make a fortune.
After listening to Zhou Xingyun's words, the Sixteenth Prince of the Emperor and Wang Yushi couldn't help but take a deep breath, thankful that Zhou Xingyun was not their enemy, otherwise they would definitely be in disaster.
It is true that Zhou Xingyun's plan is indeed feasible. If Zhou Xingyun really takes over the position of Minister of Household Affairs, coupled with the secret card Xuanyuan Tianhen, the Sixteenth Emperor feels that he has basically secured the throne.
Unfortunately, the Sixteenth Emperor didn't know that Zhou Xingyun only revealed his second plan, a small plan of his, and the third, fourth, and fifth steps were not the Sixteenth Emperor's plan.
