Chapter 166: There is no more Zhang Juzheng in the world

After Xu Mengxi completely vented, Xu Mao said, "Why is the master so angry? ”

Xu Mengxi sat in the chair, panting slightly, gritted his teeth and said: "Those guys, they don't have any ability, they know that it is not the one who blames others, Ma Zheng has so many problems, and it is not caused by the old man, but they accuse the old man of inaction and mismanagement, which is really unreasonable." ”

Although Zhang Juzheng's reform brought a glimmer of light to the Ming Dynasty, Zhang Juzheng did not solve the fundamental problem, that is, the problem of solidification of this class, he only suppressed the entire bureaucracy, but did not completely eradicate it, in fact, there are still many problems in all aspects.

Ma Zheng's problems are even more, this war horse is decreasing year by year, and the quality is worrying, uneven, shoddy.

It just so happened that a few days ago, a county official in Henan made a concert, impeaching the local horse herding officials, negligent management, and no stables for the willful, this horse running around, in fact, it is a big thing, but many ministers took this opportunity to accuse Xu Mengxuan of mismanagement, this war horse is decreasing every year, but Taifu Temple is so rich, this money is not spent, it proves that you are not in charge.

Although it is a play on the topic, it cannot be said wrong.

However, Xu Mengxi was also aggrieved in his heart.

The fundamental reason for the decline of war horses is that the pastures are shrinking, and a large number of pastures are being occupied by those royal relatives. Even if you take the money to buy it from the Mongols, this money will go all the way, and how much can you leave when you get to the border fortress, and the other party is still an enemy, how can you buy a good horse.

In fact, Xu Mengxi did a good job, he knew that he couldn't buy any good horses if he threw out the money, and it happened that there was no war in these years, so he simply bought less, from a financial point of view, he actually did a very good job, at least he saved the money.

Xu Mao was curious: "Could it be that they really started to impeach the master because of those rumors?" ”

Xu Mengxuan said: "Otherwise, why else, I don't know who leaked the news, and he said that he had a nose and eyes." ”

Xu Mao was puzzled: "Even if it is Guo Dan recommended by you, master, they will not impeach the master for this, are they really helpless Guo Dan, so they are looking for the master to spread fire?" It's better to find Guo Dan directly, after all, Guo Dan is just a small tooth businessman. ”

"It's not that simple, I just said it when I was angry." Xu Mengxi sighed and said, "I didn't expect to go around and around, but I was still swept in." ”

Xu Mao's face was shocked, and he said, "Do they think that you secretly support the imperial concubine?" ”

Xu Mengxi nodded.

"That's bad." Xu Mao immediately realized the seriousness of this matter.

At the beginning, Li Guida's eunuch said that Guo Dan's idea was really insidious.

But in fact, Guo Dan also wants to use his own way to govern others, Xu Mengxuan just wanted to avoid this matter, so he pushed Guo Dan up, and Guo Dan wanted to pull him in this time.

Those officials didn't say that they were going to target the Xu family for Guo Dan's small tooth business, they weren't so boring.

Wanli withdrew the forbidden army and took the silver back, and they also left Guo Dan behind, it was not worth spending so much energy for Guo Dan.

When they heard the news, their first reaction was that you Xing'anbo supported the emperor to canonize the Zheng family as the imperial concubine, in other words, to support the emperor to abolish the elder and the younger.

This is not allowed by the religion of etiquette, and whoever violates this will violate the interests of the entire Shilin.

Xu Mengxi was speechless, and immediately became the target of everyone.

Xu Mengxi snorted and said: "It's a big deal, the old man won't do it, as far as they can say, unless Zhang Ge Lao is alive, no one can handle it." ”

This old fox is also able to bend and stretch, his Xu family has accumulated for so many generations, some are money, he manages the oil and water department of Taifu Temple, he never fishes, he knows the seriousness of this matter, he can't fight with them, he can only admit it, I will go home to live for the rest of my life.

"Xing'anbo must not be rash!"

I saw that Zhu Yingzhen, the prince of Chengguo, entered the lobby.

Xu Mengxi was stunned, stood up, and said, "Chengguo Gong is here." ”

Zhu Yingzhen glanced at the debris on the ground, sighed and said, "Xing'anbo, you have done this too hastily!" ”

Xu Mengxuan suddenly said with a look of grievance: "Chengguo Gong doesn't know, His Majesty hoped that Taifu Temple would pay money to hold a canonization ceremony, but the old man just didn't want to get involved in these rights and wrongs, so he recommended Guo Dan to His Majesty." ”

"I see." Zhu Yingzhen nodded and said, "But the matter has come to this point, does Xing Anbo think that he can still get out of the way?" Zhang Ge Lao was dug up by them even when he died. ”

Xu Mengxuan sighed heavily.

Zhu Yingzhen continued to comfort: "You don't need to worry too much, this matter ultimately depends on Your Majesty's will, and we support you." ”

This Taifu Temple is closely related to the Ministry of War, and controls the financial power, and the network of interests in it is intricate, if Xu Menghui suddenly puts up the stall, the ghost knows who will be on top, and many people want to push their own people up.

Xu Mengxuan glanced at Zhu Yingzhen and said with a wry smile: "The old decay is just talking angry, don't take it seriously." ”

What kind of angry words are this, he really wants to retreat, but he sees Zhu Yingzhen's reaction, and he also knows that it is difficult to retreat, and he can't ignore the Xu family's power in the military.

At this moment, Xu Jirong suddenly jumped in and said, "Grandpa, huh? Uncle Zhu is also there! The little nephew has seen Uncle Zhu. ”

"A virtuous nephew doesn't need to be polite." Zhu Yingzhen saw this living treasure and nodded with a smile.

Xu Mengxi asked, "Is there anything wrong with you?" ”

Xu Jirong hurriedly said: "Grandpa, my grandson wants to go to Jinyiwei." ”

Xu Mengxi wondered: "Go to Jinyiwei?" What are you crazy about, kid. ”

"My grandson just wants to be with me." Xu Jirong grinned.

Hearing "faint", the corners of Xu Mengxi's mouth twitched, "Go and kneel outside." ”

......

Cabinet.

"What does Shen Shoufu think about this?"

Wang Jiaping asked.

Shen Shixing hesitated for a moment and sighed: "The old man thinks that this matter is not about Ma Zheng, you and I know this matter well, but even if it is a matter of facts, Xing Anbo has already done a very good job." ”

"Very good, but I can't talk about it." Wang Jiaping said: "There are indeed many problems in this horse administration, and this directly endangers national security, Xing'anbo, as a servant of the temple, he did not find a way to solve these problems, and we, as a cabinet, cannot turn a blind eye!" ”

Shen Shixing glanced at Wang Jiaping and said, "Do you want to use this to propose the reform of Ma Zheng?" ”

Wang Jiaping nodded.

Shen Shixing sighed: "If we propose change at this time, it will only harm Xing'anbo, and I don't think this is a good time, once Xing'anbo comes down, who will take it?" Many people want to be the secretary of the temple, and when the time comes, the court and the Chinese government will only quarrel over this matter. ”

Wang Jiaping said: "But we can't always expect the court and China to be harmonious, we have to assist Your Majesty to work hard, this is what a courtier should do." ”

Shen Shixing nodded and said: "This old man understands, but all this is still to wait for the matter of Lichu to be decided, otherwise, even if you have a good policy, I am afraid that you will be drowned in their saliva." ”

Wang Jiaping nodded helplessly.

Wang Jiaping and Shen Shixing are two kinds of people, Wang Jiaping is ambitious, wants to reform, and works hard, but Shen Shixing always wants to make peace with the mud, although he prevents Wang Jiaping from standing up at this time, but at the same time he sent the impeachment of Xu Mengxuan to him, he doesn't want people to think that he supports the emperor, but he also doesn't want the emperor to think that he doesn't support him.

At this time, Wanli was half lying on the couch, looking at the music sent by the celebrant and laughing.

Li Gui on the side said curiously: "Your Majesty, this piece seems to be an impeachment of Xing Anbo?" ”

"Yes! Hehe. ”

"Why is Your Majesty laughing?"

Wanli sat up slowly, threw the piece on the table, and said with a smile: "I'm laughing at them, they obviously want to kill chickens and make an example of monkeys, but they can say so high-sounding, righteous and awe-inspiring, I think that Wen Tianxiang and father-in-law are just like that, alas, ......." ”

Speaking of the back, he sighed with a sad look on his face.

In these movements, they are all impeaching Xu Mengxi for mismanagement, and they are also reasonable, but no one has proposed a solution.

It can be seen that they are targeting people, not things, this person is not Xu Mengxi, or he Wanli.

No one is allowed to support him in abolishing his longevity.

He thought that after the liquidation of Zhang Juzheng, no one would care about him, he could do whatever he wanted, but this was not the case at all, a Zhang Juzheng fell, and thousands of deformed versions of Zhang Juzheng stood up, what he is doing now is opposed by the minister, and the establishment of the imperial concubine is his counterattack, but obviously this provoked a greater backlash.

Li Gui said cautiously: "But isn't this what Your Majesty wants to see?" ”

"Yes! Isn't that what I want to see? Wanli suddenly frowned, and immediately fell into deep thought.

......

At this time, Guo Dan was very idle, Xu Mengxi's side did not produce results, and he could not operate the emperor's money, and the Yaxing side was reorganized, and there was nothing to do for the time being, he was just planning, how to plan the department, and the specific matters were still done by Kou Zhuansha.

Seeing that the weather was good today, he changed into the uniform of the brocade guard and prepared to go to the guard to have a look.

I didn't know that I met Xu Jirong just after I went out.

"Faint, I'm wronged for you again."

Xu Jirong looked at Guo Dan with resentment.

Guo Dan's head suddenly grew big, and he said depressedly: "Little uncle, don't say that, it's easy to misunderstand, I'm a normal man." ”

"It's true." Xu Jirong said: "I saw that you were a brocade guard, and I was afraid that you would be bored, so I also wanted to be a brocade guard and be a companion with you. ”

At this time, when you tell your grandfather about this, isn't that looking for kneeling? Guo Dan was secretly happy, but said: "Don't be afraid, little uncle, I'm not boring, I don't believe you." ”

He pointed to Yang Feixu beside him.

Xu Jirong glanced at it and exclaimed, "Flying girl." ”

Guo Dan exclaimed: "You know? ”

Yang Feixu turned his face away.

Xu Jirong said with a smile: "I know, how can I not know, I have been caught by her a few times." Hehe. ”

You're a little weird happy! Guo Dan was a little stunned and said, "She dares to arrest you?" ”

Xu Jirong said: "I used to fight, and I was often caught by her, but unfortunately I was released in the middle of the road, and I still want to get along with the flying girl for a while." ”

As he spoke, he asked Yang Feixu again: "Sister Feixu, why are you with the light." ”

"Fuck off."

Yang Feixu glared at him fiercely, this guy is a habitual offender, he used to fight every day and tease his sister, every time she just caught this guy, she sent a letter from above, asking her to let the person go, and then directly ordered that Xu Jirong was not allowed to be arrested, she really wanted to teach this guy a lesson.

Xu Jirong grinned and said, "Don't get out, you catch me." ”

Yang Feixu's eyes suddenly burst into flames.

I can meet your requirements. Guo Dan coughed lightly and said, "Little uncle, you want to know why she followed me, and you also want her to catch you." ”

Xu Jirong nodded.

"It's simple."

Guo Dan picked up Xu Jirong's hand, slapped it on his chest, and immediately screamed, "Oops! ”

Bang!

Yang Feixu suddenly kicked out.

Xu Jirong flew out directly and fell to the ground, his face still in a state of confusion.

Guo Dan said: "Her duty is to protect me under the emperor's orders, and anyone who wants to hurt me, she can do it." ”

"I see."

Xu Jirong rubbed his abdomen and got up, this guy's ability to resist fighting is also first-class, of course, Yang Feixu didn't do his best.

The corners of Yang Feixu's mouth twitched.

Guo Dan whispered: "No thanks." ”

Yang Feixu's expression froze and said, "Actually, what I want to kick the most is you." ”
