"Yo..."

Seeing Jia Huan's back stretched in the morning light, the little eunuch was angry, sneered a few times, and said, "Godfather, he's quite arrogant!" ”

Jia Huan dared to mock Father-in-law Liu in front of him, he was indeed very "arrogant". Moreover, he also put down a cruel sentence: I can't fight in the palace, and I can't fight for you.

Gonggong Liu smiled, very cold. Jia Huan looked confident. However, in this world, he is not the only smart and ruthless person! Successive victories tend to blind the eyes. People, don't be arrogant! To be arrogant is to fall and fight.

…

…

Jia Huan returned to the capital in early April, and almost half of the courtiers were waiting for Jia Huan to "make trouble" or "die". Then, look for opportunities in each other.

The label on Jia Huan's body is not only the head of Jia Mansion in the old Wuxun Group, but he is also the cadre of the He Department. Jia Huan is not liked by the Son of Heaven, and He will also be implicated.

In the spring of the fifteenth year of Yongzhi, in Jingcha, Scholar He suppressed Song Pu, the secretary of the ministry, and won a complete victory. The power is unprecedented. However, in such a strong situation, all factions in the imperial court are quietly forming a tacit understanding.

Undercurrents are surging!

Just like Zhang Juzheng, when he became the "regent" of the Ming Dynasty, there were still his opponents in the court. wants to wait for an opportunity to oust him: Wanli's five-year love seizure incident.

On the sixth day of the fifth month, after Jia Huan kicked out Chen Fuyan, the great eunuch of Fengzao Palace, after Jia Huan and Liu Gonggong met, this needle-tip death match against Mai Mang was finally kicked off by Jia Huan!

A fight to the death is a struggle with the ultimate goal of destroying the flesh-body of one side. This is not called a political struggle, but a war to the death.

What if your nephew's death is unknown, and the people in the city don't care, and the big sister is almost having a nervous breakdown?

What if a political opponent unscrupulously provokes a four-month-old toddler, or even crosses the bottom line, to kill a four-month-old child?

If the one sitting on the throne is like a mud bodhisattva, he looks at all this indifferently, and even, whoever makes trouble, he will clean him up. What to do?

A person cannot turn kindness into cowardice. A person cannot give in without a bottom line and principles. A person can't be short-sighted: endure the calm for a while. A person can't live without a few hard bones!

The lost justice, the blood that has passed, and the humiliation that has been trampled on can only be washed away and recovered with the blood of the black hands behind the scenes. Only then can we pay tribute to the fresh lives that have passed away and comfort the living people.

We must dare to fight and win.

…

…

On the eighth day of the fifth month, Chao Sheng, the righteous son of Liu Guozhong, the chief eunuch of the restaurant, was responsible for the procurement of ingredients in the palace.

That night, the codex of the imperial history of the city patrol went to the Beicheng Terracotta Division and asked Qiu Liang to release him. Then, there were people from Nan'an County, Chuanning Hou, etc., who sent people to intercede. Jia Huan was in the Beicheng Terracotta Division that night, and looked coldly at the names that appeared one by one.

The five city soldiers and horses, the five corresponding ones are procedurally under the jurisdiction of the Imperial History of the Patrol City. And Qiu Liang was born in a noble family and was good friends with Jiafu. Therefore, someone from the old Wuxun group came to intercede and asked for his release.

It is important to know that the procurement of ingredients in the palace has always been varied and varied. During the pseudo-Qing Dynasty, there were jokes about one or two pieces of silver and an egg in the palace. You have to believe in the discipline of your father-in-law, a eunuch who doesn't love money is not a good eunuch.

Father-in-law Chao is in charge of this matter. Naturally, it can't be no problem. Jia Huan looked as if he was going to break the gap from here.

Late that night, Ning Fu, the grandson of Prince Shun, took a message from the King of Jin to the Marquis of Jingtian's mansion to exert pressure, and then sent someone to take Gonggong Chao away in the Beicheng Terracotta Division.

This is the beginning of the prelude.

A lot of inside information, relatively hidden. For example, Jia Huan was in the Beicheng Terracotta Division that day. However, this does not prevent the roadside club from making a judgment: this is Jia Huan's attack on Liu Gonggong. However, the effect does not look very good. was dissolved.

There is a heated discussion in Beijing, waiting for the next "good show".

…

…

On the 10th day of the fifth month, in the afternoon. The king of Jin went to the West Garden to meet the Son of Heaven in vain. Gonggong Liu sent King Jin out along the way. Along the green road of Xiyuan Lake, all the palace maids and eunuchs consciously distanced themselves.

King Jin did not see the Son of Heaven and was not very upset. Because, his eighth brother, the king of Chu, also couldn't see his father. The King of Jin was dressed in a red prince's suit, and said with a smile: "Gong Liu, it doesn't taste good to be targeted by Jia Huan, right?" ”

A sneering smile appeared on Gonggong Liu's cold face, and he said, "Your Highness, the junior doesn't know the rules, and when the big event is decided, I'll send him in." ”

In fact, he is not afraid of investigating procurement and corruption at all. This has been the default thing in the palace for many years. It's just that he doesn't want his son to suffer in the Beicheng Terracotta Division, which is a loss of face for him.

Foreign ministers, if they can bring down the big eunuch in the palace, it is strange. Today, I don't like Jia Huan, and the concubine card of Jiafu has been abolished. To put it mildly, even if Jia Huan hates him to death, what can he do?

He was in the palace.

…

…

In April, Gonggong Liu chatted with King Jin and once said that the purpose of abolishing Jia Guifei's status in the palace was not Jia Huan, but someone else. Of course, if the skin does not exist, the hair will be attached?

When everyone was expecting Gonggong Liu to rely on the Jin Wang Party and Jia Huan to fight for three hundred rounds, the script was not at all as envisioned by the Roadside Society. The thoughts and ideas of the temple lords are different from those of the roadside society.

On May 13, the banner figure of the Red People's Party in the court, Yuan Hao, the young secretary of Guanglu Temple, suddenly wrote a letter, asking Yang Guifei to be the queen.

When the news came out, the Manchu Dynasty was shocked.

No one understands that when the overall focus of the current government is how to formulate the laws and regulations for increasing commercial taxes, the local focus is that Jia Huan made trouble, and how he suddenly cut to the matter of establishing the queen.

Immediately, the two scholars of the Military Aircraft Department, He and Liu, rejected it, and clearly stated that Yang Guifei could not be appointed as the queen. The officials wrote one after another. It is reported that the Son of Heaven is extremely displeased. Wu Yingdian University scholar Huamo, standing towards ambiguity.

When this turmoil was just set off by Hua Mo and others, Liu Gonggong's move: Li Kangshi, the political envoy of Shaanxi (formerly Li Xundao of Yangzhou), arrived in Beijing with a letter, and a whip law led to civil unrest in Shaanxi and tax resistance. Please abolish the whipping method.

This is more powerful than Hua Mo's moves. However, the purpose of both sides is the same: to attack He Shuo!

Throughout May, the court and all the officialdom in the world were involved in this matter. The impact of a whip is too great. The officials of the science and Taoism turned their guns on the Yongzhi Son of Heaven, and turned to spray He University: Disaster to the country and the people!

Someone is responsible for imposing a whip law that leads to civil unrest.

In mid-June, when Jia Zheng, the deputy envoy of Fujian University, returned to Beijing, Jia Huan, as the editor-in-chief of Pravda, the pioneer general who implemented a whip law last year, resigned from the office! After three round trips, Jia Huan's recital was approved.

Since then, Jia Huan's officialdom career that began in the thirteenth year of Yongzhi ended two years later. And Jia Huan's actual intention is to use his resignation in exchange for Jia's promotion to two levels. But his idea fell through.

…

…

After Jia Huan's resignation, the voice of the critic weakened. However, this is not the end of this "storm", but the beginning.

After Jia Huan resigned, Xiao Mengzhen, deputy editor-in-chief, took charge of Pravda and censored power. The Great Sunday newspaper immediately joined the camp of attacking He Shuo. Xiao Mengzhen couldn't suppress Han Xiucai.

The Jin Wang Party, the Chu Wang Party, the Hua Department, and the Song Department of Song Tianguan are all staring at the He Department, and the situation is very complicated.

Under such circumstances, Scholar He could only take a step back and change the increase in commercial tax to an increase in taxes on certain goods with extremely high profits: ten taxes and one. It is approximately similar to the Bomai system of the Southern Song Dynasty. Occasionally, it is a tax increase on luxury goods. However, this plan to take a step back still causes some people to be dissatisfied.

Some people only have personal family interests in their eyes, and there are no national interests.

In July, when the matter of increasing commercial taxes was promoted, the matter of "establishing a queen" that had been interrupted by Li Kangshi, the political envoy of Shaanxi, had written a letter about a whip law.

On July 22, the decree of the Son of Yongzhi came down to the military aircraft: to make Yang Guifei the queen. He and Liu, two scholars, refused to obey the edict. However, Hua Mo drafted the holy decree. He Shuo instructed that the holy decree be stuck in the sealing procedure of the six branches. and Liu Feibai, a university scholar, led six senior officials to collectively write to the officials to boycott the matter.

This is a very resolute attitude: smash. For scholars, how can they accept their brother and sister-in-law as queens? Still shameless?

The ministers dealt with the emperor, and it was definitely not possible to rebel. The first weapon: scolding the emperor. When encountering a weak emperor, such as Emperor Longqing, it is more cool. If you encounter a strong emperor, you will have to drop a few heads. The second weapon, collective resignation, picking. This is the method that He Shuo is using now.

The more intense one is the knocking and exhortation - the standard template, what Yang Shen did in the great etiquette.

However, the Son of Yongzhi did not eat this set at all, and with the cooperation of Wuyingdian Huamo, he forcibly appointed Yang Guifei as the queen.

At the beginning of August, Liu Fei, a quasi-Mandarin Hall scholar, gave the car a ride. Derogatory Department left attendant Lang Tianchang, degraded Dali Temple Qing Liang Xi. Several others were degraded. He Shuo was defeated. However, the Son of Heaven retained Scholar He.

Later, the general army of Liaodong, the former general of the Guoyong battalion, the henchman of the Son of Heaven prayed for a great victory at the border in the summer, and the Son of Heaven was happy with his face and rewarded countless rewards! This is very different from the attitude of punishing Wang Ziteng last year.

In other words, He Shuo, the foreman of the military aircraft, has lost control of the court. This includes, proposed by Jia Huan, and what he approves of, to suppress the two kings of Jin and Chu to seize the throne and avoid affecting the government.

Scholar He was powerless to suppress it.

…

…

However, this is not the end of this great change in the imperial court: why lose his power, and the important ministers will be chased together. Before sending Liang Xi out of Beijing to Guangxi, He Shuo invited Jia Huan, Xu Cheng, and Liang Xi to the mansion to have a drink and talk.

Liang Xi sighed: "The Son of Heaven has to rely on He Xiang to govern the country before he can be retained. It's raining. ”

He Shuo waved his hand, his eyes were firm, and said: "The day when the old man will leave his post is not far away, what should be done must be done." ”

He wanted to try to finish what he wanted to do before the Son of Heaven's trust in him was exhausted.

He Shuo's decision, Jia Huan, Xu Cheng, and Liang Xi didn't know how to persuade them.

Coming out of Hefu, Xu Cheng invited Jia Huan to take a carriage together. The moon stars are scarce, and the osmanthus flowers in the capital are fragrant.

Jia Huan suddenly remembered that if he hadn't sent Xue Pan far away, I'm afraid Xue Pan would have married Hedong Shi. The Xia family is the one who sells flowers in the capital.

The carriage was relatively spacious, Xu Cheng took a sip of hot tea, sighed softly, and said, "I envy Ziyu for being unofficial." Heavy ears are safe on the outside, and Shen Sheng is dead on the inside. Before leaving Beijing, I wanted to mention a marriage to Ziyu. Ziyu is willing to marry the girl of the Xing family in your mansion to Wen Qian? ”

This is what it means to be married.

Jia Huan was stunned, Xu Shilang was a clear-eyed person, and said bluntly: "I personally agree." But Xu Shilang, I need to ask the Xing family's opinion first. He actually wanted to ask Xing Xiuyan's opinion.

Xu Cheng nodded and smiled. Didn't say another word.

…

…

In the middle of August of the fifteenth year of Yongzhi, He University asked for the establishment of the Liaodong Political Division. The Son of Heaven agreed. Xu Cheng, the left servant of the Ministry of Officials, was the political envoy of Liaodong.

The left servant of the Ministry of Officials, who is the third grade, is the political envoy from the second grade. Beijing officials have always been more valuable than local officials.

At the end of August, Scholar He asked for the change of water transportation, which had been in place for two or three hundred years, to sea transportation. As soon as the news came out, the world was shaken.

Officials all over the world know the disadvantages of water transportation, and it is more cost-effective to take sea transportation. However, there are too many interests involved in Caoyun.

Pravda's editor-in-chief, Xiao Mengzhen, used his power to suppress dissenting opinions and try to control public opinion. But, to no avail. On September 20, the political departments of Hebei and Shandong jointly played: tens of thousands of Cao workers gathered to rebel. The world shook.

Mobilizing troops to quell the rebellion and appeasement is no problem. Wu Yingdian University scholar Huamo personally went out of Beijing to take charge of this matter. Pravda's editor-in-chief, Xiao Mengzhen, was imprisoned on charges of blocking the way of speech. This is an after-the-fact accountability.

He Shuo said that he was not sick. For the time being, Song Tianguan of the Ministry of Officials is in charge of the affairs of the court.

It's the end of September, late autumn. The capital was filled with an aura of slaughter. At the end of this court dispute, Liu Gonggong's fatal knife finally fell.

The imperial history heard that Jia Huan, in Jiujiang, accepted bribes and covered up the homeless people for the Jiujiang prefect. Later, there was another report of the imperial history, and after Jia Huan left office, he had a grudge against the Son of Heaven. Before the case of the Son of Heaven, there was information from Jinyiwei: true.

When Jia Huan said goodbye to Xu Cheng, there was a poem that said: Gu Ying is ashamed of the southern crown, and the rest of his life is cold at night. Jun En is not allowed to boast about the front seat, who can get rid of the left horse in the world. The geese go to the north of the empty space, and the flowers bloom and fall from the south of the Yangtze River. Poor Yu Xin is so talented, Guan Longxiang's heart is unbearable.

This poem was spread all over Beijing. Different people look at the problem from different angles and come to very different conclusions. Literal hell, mostly nonsense. It's just because someone wants to rectify people.

October, early winter. The Son of Heaven issued an order to detain Jia Huan and put him in the prison of the Criminal Department. This form often has an academic term: edict.

…

…

In the prison of the criminal department, rows of cells are juxtaposed.

Jia Huan squinted his eyes, looking at the little sunlight that came in through the iron window. Counting the time. Here he is, the news is not blocked.

At this time, there was movement outside the prison. Jia Huan opened his eyes and saw Han Xiucai standing outside the prison door.
