Liang Chu saw Li Dongyang and the three of them kneeling in front of the hall from a distance, to be honest, Liang Chu was a little confused, what happened to make two scholars and a scholar kneel in front of the hall?

Could it be that the emperor did not agree to embezzle official money for disaster relief? It doesn't make sense! But something big must have happened, otherwise the three important ministers of the court would not have been forced to make such a helpless move!

Liang Chu stepped forward quickly, came to the side of the three of them and said in a deep voice: "Li Ge Lao, Yang Ge Lao, Fei Shangshu, what happened?" ”

Li Dongyang smiled bitterly: "Henan suffered a disaster, the treasury is empty, we beg the emperor to allocate silver from the inner treasury for disaster relief, how can the emperor not allow it!" In desperation, I had to make this decision! ”

Liang Chu also felt his eyes light up when he heard it, and he felt a sense of sudden enlightenment, yes, although the treasury is empty, the inner treasury is not empty! Who doesn't know that the glass mirror is full of money, and the inner treasury of Emperor Zhengde is thick!

"How could the emperor not allow it? They are all the people of the Ming Dynasty, how can the emperor watch countless people starve to death? Liang Chu said urgently.

Li Dongyang could only smile bitterly when he heard this, and finally Fei Hong explained with a wry smile: "Alas, it's a long story, I didn't think of asking the emperor to allocate money from the inner treasury at the beginning!" I really can't help it, so I want to embezzle the official money for the time being. I didn't expect it to spread out, and now it's spreading everywhere! It may have reached the ears of the emperor! ”

When Prince Liang heard this, he also understood, and frowned: "The emperor thinks that there are actually other ways, so he is unwilling to allocate money from the inner treasury?" ”

Yang Tinghe said with a wry smile: "What the emperor said is more than this, the emperor insists that there is no silver in the inner treasury, let's think of other ways!" ”

Liang Chu almost spurted out a mouthful of old blood when he heard this, who would believe that there was no silver in the inner treasury? In these years, Emperor Zhengde has never asked the treasury for silver, and he has spent money lavishly! Back then, the glass mirror caused a sensation in the capital, and the silver was already like flowing water, how many people were envious!

"It's not a way to kneel like this all the time, right? The emperor didn't even see him! What can I do? Liang Chu said worriedly.

Li Dongyang and Fei Hong were silent, but Yang Tinghe looked a little speechless. Li Dongyang sighed: "There is no other way! ”

Fei Hong suddenly raised his head and said, "What is the best plan for Elder Yang Ge?" ”

Yang Tinghe groaned: "If there is anyone in the dynasty who is most likely to persuade the emperor, there is only one person!" ”

Although Yang Tinghe didn't say who it was, Li Dongyang and the others thought of it at once! Li Dongyang frowned slightly: "He has always been focused on currying favor with the emperor, how could he be willing to come forward when he encounters such a thing for the people?" ”

Yang Tinghe shook his head slightly and said: "Li Ge Lao said this, it is inevitably pertinent, although he does have something to please the emperor, but he is also a decent person, and he has done a lot of good things for the country and the people!" ”

"Then why didn't he come? Don't say that he doesn't know, it's not that he wants to take care of himself, and he doesn't want to disobey the emperor's will! Li Dongyang snorted coldly.

Several people fell silent for a while, Liang Chu frowned and thought, what Yang Tinghe said was very reasonable, although he didn't have much contact with Zhang Zhijie, but his impression of Zhang Zhijie was not bad, and he felt that he was not a treacherous villain!

Now that the state affairs are difficult, if Zhang Zhijie is invited to persuade Emperor Zhengde, it will definitely be able to achieve twice the result with half the effort! Zhang Zhijie is the emperor's most trusted person, his one sentence can top ten sentences of others, and most of the silver in the inner treasury is from his handwriting, and he can persuade the emperor even more!

In addition, Zhang Zhijie has a good relationship with these eunuchs in the palace, which can reduce more resistance! Here they begged the emperor to allocate money from the inner treasury for disaster relief, and those eunuchs didn't know how to slander them in order to please the emperor, according to the emperor's wishes!

Liang Chu thought for a while and then sighed: "That's it, the disaster relief is big, so the old man gave up this old face to find Zhang Zhijie!" ”

At this time, Zhang Zhijie still didn't know what was happening in the leopard room, and his attention had been diverted at this time, since Li Dongyang and they planned to embezzle the official property, then move it, anyway, he had nothing to do!

At this time, Zhang Zhijie was already planning to make a move, and this time was undoubtedly the best time! He had already made arrangements, so he knew that now that he knew that all the officials in the court were talking about it, he was very disappointed in the cabinet, so he naturally wanted to seize the opportunity!

The first step in Zhang Zhijie's plan is to spread rumors and use them to hit Li Dongyang! The rumors that Zhang Zhijie wanted to spread were not only that Li Dongyang mistakenly recommended Peng Ze, causing heavy losses to the army!

The rumors that Zhang Zhijie wants to spread are very bad! Many people have forgotten it, but Zhang Zhijie still remembers that when Emperor Zhengde had just ascended the throne, there were three cabinet scholars at that time, Liu Jian, Xie Qian and Li Dongyang!

They led hundreds of officials to force the palace to punish the Eight Tigers, and brought Zhang Zhijie in! At that time, Zhang Zhijie could only choose to resist in order to defend himself.

In the end, the three scholars threatened that Emperor Zhengde's newborn calf was not afraid of tigers, and directly approved Xie Qian and Liu Jian's request to Zhishi, and drove Xie Qian and Liu Jian out of the court!

It was Xie Qian and Liu Jian who were looking for a step down, but they didn't expect Emperor Zhengde to have no experience, so they approved it directly! According to the usual rules, even if you really want to be a minister, the emperor has to keep it again and again, and the face of the minister is gone!

As a result, Xie Qian and Liu Jian could only leave Beijing gloomily, but Li Dongyang, who also wrote a letter to resign, was persuaded by Zhang Zhijie to stay with Emperor Zhengde.

When Xie Qianhao and Liu Jian left Beijing, he persuaded Li Dongyang, who came to see him off, to leave Beijing together, which can be regarded as a good story. At that time, Li Dongyang generously said that it was not because he was greedy for power but because the court was not appeased, and when the eunuch was removed, it was the time for Li Dongyang to return home!

Now that Liu Jin's party has been wiped out for several years, but Li Dongyang is still a member of the cabinet, I don't know if he remembers his promise?

It doesn't matter if he doesn't remember, Zhang Zhijie feels that he needs to help him remember! Zhang Zhijie gave an order, and the huge brocade guard immediately became operational.

Li Dongyang, a scholar of the first assistant university in the cabinet, is greedy for power, and rumors of dishonesty and unpromise have begun to spread everywhere. Li Dongyang, a cabinet scholar, is not a virtuous minister, he is just a powerful minister who covets power!

Everywhere is exaggerating how deep the friendship between the three ministers of the first emperor Tuogu was, but as a result, the two scholars left Beijing gloomily, and only Li Dongyang asked for the first assistant of the cabinet for many years, regardless of the promise of the year, and he was two-faced and three-faced!

Originally, a few days ago, there was an impeachment of Li Dongyang's erroneous recommendation, but now the hundred officials are panicked, and they have great opinions on the cabinet's plan to embezzle official money for disaster relief! Now the rumors have risen again, and many officials have remembered the events of the year, but isn't it, Li Dongyang is indeed just a person who is greedy for power!
