You must know that the Zhongzhi has not been drafted by the cabinet, and even a seven-rank official cannot be dismissed.
But for the celebrant and eunuch Feng Bao, it was enough.
The No. 2 person in the Ming Dynasty, when Zhang Juzheng was in power, Feng Bao, who could also sit on an equal footing, was not guaranteed because of this holy decree.
How can a eunuch be powerful in front of a hundred officials, but he is a domestic slave in front of the emperor, and the Son of Heaven wants to remove Feng Bao from his position, which is a matter of one sentence.
Of course, because it is the central decree, most officials are unaware of the news that Feng Bao is idle at home.
After Feng Bao was idle, the second assistant of the cabinet, Shen Shixing, said that he was sick and begged the emperor for leave.
Then Chen Jingbang, the right attendant of the prince's guest rite department, begged for leave with illness.
Cabinet University Shili, Shen Shixing and Feng Bao, Zhang Juzheng are the closest. In this move, Shen Shixing indicated that he would stay out of the matter and hand over the right to vote as an assistant.
And Chen Jingbang is also an old man of the Zhang Party, one of the nine people in the list recommended to the Son of Heaven when Zhang Juzheng was a servant, and he was listed on the imperial screen.
Immediately, the emperor allowed Shen Shixing to take a temporary leave for a few days, and the cabinet was taken by Zhang Siwei in advance, and then ordered the imperial doctor to visit Shen Shixing's illness, and at the same time ordered Geng Qing to give Chen Jingbang food such as pig and rice to appease.
The Emperor used this to appease the two of them, and to show that I still trust you.
A few days later, against Zhang Juzheng, Feng Bao's counterattack began. In the matter of Hu Ke, Wang Jiguang participated in the Ministry of Labor, and Shangshu had saved me ten crimes.
Zhang Siwei's party was also very targeted, and Feng Bao was ordered to be idle by the Son of Heaven at this time.
But how to continue to punish Feng Bao, the royal family has not yet made it clear, just let him be idle. may have remembered the old relationship with Feng Bao and Fuzheng for many years, and the Son of Heaven will open up.
At this time, it would be unwise to attack Feng Bao in the last book.
Therefore, Wang Jiguang first impeached Zeng Xingwu, and the palace of King Lu was built under the supervision of Zeng Shengwu himself.
Feng Baozheng lost trust in the Queen Mother because of this matter. Feng Bao was greedy for ink and fell, and you Zeng Shengwu was afraid that it would not be clean, so Zhang Siwei first chose Zeng Shengwu to impeach.
However, in Wang Jiguang's impeachment of Zeng Shengwu's ten crimes, there was no article on the construction of King Lu's palace and greed for ink, because if this matter was impeached, it would make the sensitive Empress Dowager Li think that they opposed the construction of King Lu's mansion, and even opposed the transfer of military funds from the treasury to King Lu for procurement.
Feng Baozhuyu was in front, and all the officials understood that this wedding of King Lu was a thunder, and whoever touched it would die.
Empress Dowager Li dared to use 5.9 million taels of silver for King Lu's wedding, which is such an astronomical amount. In the first year of Longqing, Taicang silver (treasury) annual income of 2.01 million, carrier treasury (inner treasury) annual income of 1 million gold and silver, until the ninth year of Wanli, after the implementation of a whip law, Taicang silver annual income also increased to 3.72 million taels, and the annual income of the carrier treasury was 1.2 million taels of gold and silver.
Empress Dowager Li dared to use the income of the national treasury for two years to marry her son, and even embezzled the military funds of the nine sides, this old lady's selfishness was clear to all officials.
This time, the Empress Dowager Li spent 5.9 million taels, and stared at the treasury silver again, and asked the household department to ask for more than 100,000 taels of silver to buy gold beads.
If it weren't for the exhaustion of mountains and rivers, who would dare to say a word about this matter.
Therefore, in Wang Jiguang's impeachment of Zeng Xingwu, there is no mention of Zeng Shengwu's construction of King Lu's palace, and most of the ten crimes listed are trumped-up crimes.
But it was such a recital that impeached a secretary of the Ministry of Works.
Shen Shixing used the illness to clear up the involvement, and the rest of Ding Wei was submissive, and Zhang Siwei was the only one in the cabinet, and the Son of Heaven ordered Zeng Province to be Zhishi.
The fall of Zeng Province means the beginning of the Great Reckoning.
Immediately, the Shandong Provincial Imperial History Jiangdong impeached Feng Bao's cronies, and Jinyiwei commanded Xu Jue, who was accused of Liang Menglong, the secretary of the ministry, bribed Feng Bao with 30,000 taels of silver to Xu Jue, and married his granddaughter to Feng Bao's nephew.
Yu Shi Deng Lian and Zhao Kai went to the book to impeach Liang Menglong.
After the Son of Heaven issued an order, Xu Jue issued an edict to prison, and then sent to the Criminal Department after a strict interrogation.
As for the secretary of the ministry, Liang Menglong ordered Zhishi.
In one breath, the Ministry of Officials and the Ministry of Industry were all impeached, and Feng Bao's right-hand man was removed.
After that, the Son of Heaven ordered Zhang Hong to be the chief eunuch of the ceremonial supervisor, and Zhang Whale was in charge of the East Factory and fully took over the original Feng Bao's position.
Feng Bao was originally a celebrant eunuch and admiral of Dongchang, but now the Son of Heaven has divided this position into two.
Zhang Hong is in charge of the ceremonial supervisor, and Zhang Whale is in charge of the East Factory, Jinyiwei.
"Congratulations to the factory governor, congratulations to the factory governor."
Zhang Whale said with a smile on his face: "What kind of wind is this today, which actually blew the champion here." ”
Lin Yanchao smiled and ordered Chen Jichuan to give Zhang Whale a congratulatory gift.
Lin Yanchao said with a smile: "Once the factory governor and the commander of the East Factory gained power, like a fish turning into a dragon, the little brother came here to congratulate you, and he will rely on you to support him in the future." ”
Zhang Whale's face was full of spring breeze when he heard this, and he laughed a few times, and then said: "What kind of friendship do I have with you, don't worry, with me one day, I will ensure that you eat and drink spicy food." ”
After saying that, the two sat down.
After Zhang Jingrong was appointed as the supervisor of the East Factory, Lin Yanchao visited him as soon as possible.
It is said that taking the initiative to stick his face on it is a rather shameful behavior among civil officials, and when the news spreads, Lin Yanchao's official reputation will stink from now on.
But for Zhang Whale, he was appointed as the factory supervisor, and Lin Yanchao came to congratulate him for the first time, which was very face-saving. The rest of the officials were not courteous, and they looked like they wanted to make friends with you, but they cherished their feathers, which made him look down on him the most.
Zhang Whale sat down and glanced at Lin Yanchao's gift list, and then asked with a smile: "Brother, don't you have something to ask me for?" ”
"Brother Zhang, there is indeed a reluctant request."
Zhang Whale smiled and said: "I guess, do you have any friends who are also involved in Feng Baoyu's party, if he is not involved in the matter, I can show mercy." ”
"If he really can't get out, I can also take care of him and let him suffer less. As for the ceremony, there is no need, you poor Hanlin, don't I know yet? Don't give me this. ”
As the factory governor, Zhang Whale has jurisdiction over the East Factory, Jinyi Guard, and manages the Imperial Prison.
If it weren't for Lin Yanchao's early marriage with Zhang Whale and wanting to get people from him with a word, even if he was the second rank of the dynasty, he would not have this face.
Lin Yanchao smiled bitterly: "Not for others, but for my own little brother." ”
Zhang Whale almost jumped up and asked, "What are you Feng Bao's old party?" ”
Lin Yanchao said with a smile: "Brother Zhang, you are also a dignified factory supervisor now, don't be so surprised, okay?" ”
Zhang Jing shook his head and said: "What kind of factory governor, I have only been appointed by His Majesty for two days, and my official authority has not been established." But no, how can you be Feng Bao's person? Could it be Gao Huai? You are usually close to him, but it is not so much, as a Hanlin in these years, there are not a few good eunuchs in the palace. ”
"With Your Majesty's trust in you, I will not blame you for this little thing at all. Even if you are really Feng Bao's old party, Your Majesty will not pursue it. You have been His Majesty's most trusted minister in recent years, and you will never lose your favor for this trivial matter. ”
Lin Yanchao said with a smile: "When did I say that I was Feng Bao's old party, Brother Zhang, what are you guessing?" ”
Zhang Whale listened to it and said strangely: "What you said made me confused." ”
Lin Yanchao took a stack of silver tickets from his sleeve and handed it over, and then said, "But there is really something that wants to trouble Brother Zhang." ”
Zhang Whale glanced up at Lin Yanchao, accepted the silver ticket, and finally said in surprise: "Brother, it seems that you have committed a lot of things this time." Where did you get the money? ”
Lin Yanchao smiled: "Why doesn't Brother Zhang dare to accept it?" ”
Zhang Whale sneered: "Is there any money in this world that I Zhang Whale dare not collect?" It's just that you better tell me first, otherwise you won't be able to keep people after collecting money, isn't it bad for me? Tell me how to behave? ”
Lin Yanchao nodded and said, "Don't worry, I won't take this step without being completely sure." ”
Coming out of the gate of the East Factory, he can be regarded as a person who has entered the East Factory.
After Lin Yanchao got into the carriage, he came and went to think about it, Zhang Whale was his last move, leaving himself a way out.
After Feng Bao lost power in an all-round way. All of a sudden, the wind in the court changed dramatically, and the reckoning began.
Feng Bao was taken down, Shen Shixing said that he was not sick, the two Shangshu fell, and everyone in the Zhang Party was in danger.
Jiangxi Provincial Imperial History Li Zhi Shangben Shen Feng Bao was punished for twelve crimes.
Princess Yongning chose to marry, and Feng Bao accepted bribes to marry a tuberculosis ghost, but the horse died of illness within two days. Empress Dowager Li's own daughter became a widow.
When the eunuch died of illness, Feng Bao looted all the valuable treasures and only gave the worthless ones to the royal family.
The three major construction projects, the establishment of luxury shrines for themselves, and the construction of more than 5,000 houses in his hometown
……
Among the twelve crimes, there is still no one involving King Lu's wedding purchase, but everyone knows that Feng Bao fell on this one.
So the Son of Heaven ordered Feng to be killed, but he was entrusted with the emperor's examination and sent Nanjing Xiaoling Sixiang.
In addition, Feng Bao's henchmen, nephews and nephews such as Wei Chao, Feng You, Feng Bangning, Zhang Dashou, Liu Shouyou, Zhang Zhao, Pang Qing, Feng Xin, etc., were all detained.
After the charges were confirmed, the Son of Heaven ordered all the houses to be raided.
Zhang Whale led the Jinyi Guard, and the East Factory surrounded Feng Bao's house, digging three feet into the ground and scraping for several days. There are millions of taels of gold and silver alone, and the treasures in the palace are innumerable.
The Son of Heaven reported the proceeds of Feng Bao and his henchmen to Empress Dowager Li.
Empress Dowager Li was so angry, not to mention the millions of taels of gold and silver copied out, as well as rare treasures, that is, the extravagant ancestral hall, and the five thousand houses in Feng Bao's hometown, how much is it?
On weekdays, you are greedy, but this time you actually hit the idea, Empress Dowager Li left his son King Lu private money, these 5.9 million taels, how much are you Feng Bao greedy from?
And Zhang Juzheng is the first assistant, can he not know? Turn a blind eye to Feng Bao's actions, or directly share the spoils with him?
After raiding the house, Zhang Whale also gave the little emperor a list of officials who paid bribes to Feng Bao, among which Zhang Juzheng's name was impressive.
On the second day, Zhili patrolled according to the kingdom and discussed the anti-Feng Bao's dictatorship and bribery, that is, the auxiliary minister Zhang Juzheng.
In the recital, Zhang Juzheng and Feng Bao were impeached.
Zhang Juzheng gave Feng Bao seven bribes to famous pianos, nine night pearls, five pearl curtains, 30,000 taels of gold, and 100,000 taels of silver.
Then impeach Wang Seal, the left servant of the Ministry of Officials, and send Feng Baoyu with ten bundles and 20,000 taels of silver.
Hundreds of officials were in an uproar, and two months after Zhang Juzheng died of illness, he was liquidated to him because of Feng Bao's matter.
