Chapter 1216: Framed
"Peng Jianzheng already has a way to deal with Liu Qiu?" Seeing Peng Deqing's confident look, a smile appeared on the corner of Wang Zhen's mouth, and he asked slowly while holding the teacup on the side and tasting it leisurely.
"Can my father-in-law remember that Liu Qiu was not suitable to use a Taoist as the secretary of Taichang Temple and should be appointed as a civil official?" Peng Deqing smiled slightly when he heard this, and looked at Wang Zhen meaningfully.
Taichang Temple is one of the five temples of the Ming Dynasty, the five temples are Dali Temple, Taichang Temple, Guanglu Temple, Taifu Temple He Honglu Temple, Zhangzong Temple etiquette, responsible for the ritual music, suburban temple, Sheji, altar, mausoleum, is an important central ministry of the Ming Dynasty.
Because the Ming Dynasty advocated Taoism, the Taichang Temple Temple was held by the Taoist for a period of time, which is an official position of the third grade, which is better than Peng Deqing's positive five products Qin Tianjian I don't know how many times, belongs to one of the "little Jiuqing".
Dajiuqing is easier to understand, referring to the Imperial History of the Left Capital of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, the Temple of Dali Temple, the General Political Envoy and the Six Shangshu.
The Xiao Jiuqing family refers to the nine chief officials of the central yamen in the capital, namely: Taichang Siqing, Taifu Siqing, Guanglu Siqing, Zhan Shifu Zhan Shi, Hanlin Bachelor, Honglu Siqing, Guozi Jian Sacrificial Wine, Yuanma Siqing and Shangbao Siqing.
"You mean to start with the Taichang Temple to find out?" Wang Zhen naturally knew what Peng Deqing said, and at the same time understood Peng Deqing's intentions, and his eyes couldn't help but light up.
At the end of last year, Liu Qiu was in the court meeting, thinking that Taichang Temple was the idea of the imperial court's ministry yamen, so the temple secretary of Taichang Temple should be served by a civil official from the imperial examination, and should not be served by a Taoist, so "Taoist priests cannot be used too often, and it is advisable to be a Confucian minister."
The orthodox emperor felt that Liu Qiu's words were reasonable, so he ordered the removal of the Taoist priest who served as the secretary of the temple of Taichang Temple, and asked the imperial court to elect a person to serve as the secretary of the temple of Taichang Temple.
As soon as this matter came out, the civil forces of all parties in the court began to wrestle, wanting to take the position of Taichang Siqing into their arms, and many civil officials with sufficient qualifications were ready to take advantage of this opportunity to go further in their careers, which led to too fierce competition so that Taichang Siqing has not been elected until now.
Wang Zhen is a smart person, so he naturally heard that Peng Deqing wanted to attack Liu Qiu from Tai Changqing's position, and Peng Deqing must have thought about how to operate this matter.
"Father-in-law, this official heard that Dong Fu, the editor of Hanlin, once recommended himself as the Siqing of Taichang Temple." Peng Deqing smiled at Wang Zhen and said quietly.
"Hanlin edited Dong Lan?" Wang Zhen's brows furrowed slightly, he knew that Dong Lan, Dong Lan was a Jinshi in the Yongle period, and he had served in the Hanlin Academy for more than 20 years, although it was only the official rank of the sixth grade, but Hanlin belonged to the top level of the scholars, and he was fully qualified to serve as Taichang Siqing in terms of qualifications.
Dong Phosphorus belongs to the kind of person who has no way in the court, and his popularity is not very good, he is a nerd in the eyes of the people, otherwise it would not be possible to stay in the position of Hanlin editor for 20 years.
"Hanlin editing?" After Wang Zhen pondered for a while, his eyes couldn't help but flash a bright light, and he heard the point in Peng Deqing's words, that is, Dong Li was also a member of the Hanlin Academy!
"Father-in-law, Liu Qiu and Dong Phosphorus are more than traitors, plotting for important positions in the court, which is really hateful!" The corners of Peng Deqing's mouth showed a hint of a smile and said to Wang Zhen with a smile, "With Dong Phosphorus as bait, you can definitely fish out Liu Qiu!" ”
"That's a good plan!" Hearing this, Wang Zhen nodded with satisfaction, to be honest, he didn't expect Peng Deqing to have such a heavy hand on Liu Qiu, it seems that there are still more people who can help him share his worries.
"Come on, go and call Ma Shun." Then, Wang Zhen groaned for a while, and said to Mao Gui, who was standing aside.
Ma Shun is the deputy envoy of Jinyi Weibei Town, and is a confidant of Wang Zhen, since the orthodox emperor ascended the throne, the relationship between Dongchang and Jinyi Weibei Town Fusi has become increasingly close, once Dongchang has an order Jinyi Weibei Town Fusi will go to arrest people.
Therefore, this time Wang Zhen's plan must be implemented through Ma Shun, as long as Dong Phosphorus is arrested in the edict prison, then the man who is beaten by Dong Phosphorus will honestly open his mouth to "confess the crime." ”
Ma Shun is a middle-aged strong man, who used to be just a hundred households in Jinyi Weibei Town, and later because he took Wang Zhen's line to soar, he was promoted to the position of deputy town envoy of Beizhen Fusi in just a few years, which can be described as high-spirited and proud.
"Father-in-law, rest assured, the official will let him explain honestly." Ma Shun also thought that it was a big deal, and after learning that it was to deal with a civil official in the court, he patted his chest and agreed, because the Jinyi Weibei Town Fusi was only responsible to the emperor, and he did not need the consent of the various yamen of the court to arrest and release people, so in Ma Shun's opinion, repairing Liu Qiu's matter was a piece of cake.
"This matter must be fast, quickly resolved, and must not be careless." Wang Zhen saw Ma Shun's relaxed face, and couldn't help but say with a serious expression.
Liu Qiu is not terrible, what is terrible is the civil official group behind Liu Qiu, so he hopes to solve Liu Qiu's matter before the civilian official group reacts, so as not to have too many dreams at night.
"This official understands, so my father-in-law will listen to the good news." Ma Shun saw Wang Zhen's solemn appearance and knew that this matter was very important, so he turned pale and replied in a deep voice.
"Okay, then the miscellaneous family is waiting for your good news." Wang Zhen nodded quietly, with a sneer on the corner of his mouth, this time he wanted to kill chickens and monkeys, and use Liu Qiu to deter hundreds of officials in the court.
Ma Shun then bowed to Wang Zhen, hurriedly walked away, and went to arrange the arrest of people.
Hanlin editor Dong Phosphorus can be said to have suffered an unwarranted disaster, and when he was dealing with the affairs at hand in the Hanlin Academy, he was forcibly taken away by the people of Jinyi Weibei Town, Fusi, who broke into the door, and threw him into the edict prison.
The Hanlin people of the Hanlin Academy were taken aback by this, and they didn't know what Dong Phosphorus had done to provoke the people of Jinyi Weibei Zhenfusi.
"Lord Wang, I just got the news that the people of Jinyi Weibei Town Fusi arrested Dong Phosphorus, the editor of Hanlin, and now his subordinates are investigating the reason."
After the court meeting, Li Yuntian got into the four-wheeled carriage waiting outside the palace gate to lecture on martial arts, and after the carriage started, Lin Xin, who was sitting opposite him, said in a deep voice.
The editor of the Hanlin Academy did not look at the small rank of the official but was an out-and-out scholar, and the official of the imperial court, so Lin Xin did not dare to slack off after knowing the news, and told Li Yuntian as soon as possible.
"Strange thing, what did Dong Phosphorus commit to recruit the people of Jinyi Weibei Town Fusi?" Li Yuntian's brows suddenly frowned slightly when he heard this, he knew very well to the people of the Hanlin Academy that Dong Fu was just a nerd, and it was impossible for him to commit something worthy of Jinyi Weibei Zhenfusi's dispatch.
"Could it be ......" Then, Li Yuntian suddenly realized something, and a look of surprise flashed on his face.
"Lord Wang, as far as his subordinates know, it was Ma Shun, the deputy envoy of the Fusi of Jinyi Weibei Town, who went to the Hanlin Academy to arrest people, and before that, Ma Shun went to the master of ceremonies." Lin Xin realized what Li Yuntian had in mind, so she opened her mouth and added.
"Ma Shun, this is the meaning of a drunkard!" Li Yuntian nodded thoughtfully when he heard this, which invisibly verified his previous guess, it seemed that Wang Zhen was going to make a move on Liu Qiu, and Dong Fu was just a disguise.
Li Yuntian felt a little curious in his heart, and wanted to know what method Wang Zhen used to implicate Liu Qiu from Dong Li, because he was busy with official business, it was naturally impossible to know everything, and he had insight into Wang Zhen's intentions.
Soon after returning to the lecture hall, Li Yuntian got another news that the Qintian supervisor was the master of ceremonies opened by Peng Deqing and Ma Shun, so it seems that Dong Phosphorus's arrest was related to the two of them.
"Adjutant Lin, you send someone to give this to Uncle Zhongwu." After pacing back and forth in the room a few times, Li Yuntian picked up a pen and wrote four words on a piece of paper, put it in an envelope and sealed it with fire paint, and then called Lin Xin, and said in a deep voice.
"My subordinates will do it." Lin Xin stretched out her hand to take the envelope, bowed to Li Yuntian, and quickly turned around and left.
Zhongwu Bo naturally refers to Li Manshan, Li Manshan is now in charge of the Jinyi Weibei Zhenfu Division with the respect of an earl, and is the highest-ranking Zhenfu envoy after the establishment of the Jinyi Wei Zhenfu Division, even if the Jinyi Wei commander has to be polite after seeing him.
In fact, with Li Manshan's qualifications, he could have found a better errand in the court, but Jinyi Weibei Zhenfu Si was one of the most important yamen in the capital, with the power of arrest and interrogation, independent of the Ming judicial system.
Therefore, Li Manshan has been staying in the position of the envoy of the town, and now it has been ten years in the blink of an eye, and he has a high prestige in the North Town Fusi.
Jinyi Weibei Town Fusi.
Li Manshan was practicing calligraphy in the room, because he was in charge of the edict, Li Yuntian thought that Li Manshan's anger was too heavy, so he let him practice calligraphy on weekdays when he had time, in order to recuperate, so Li Manshan often practiced calligraphy, and now he can write a beautiful calligraphy.
"Lord Earl, someone from the Zhongwang Mansion has arrived." A guard walked in quickly, bowed to Li Manshan and said.
"Please." Hearing this, Li Manshan hurriedly put down the brush in his hand and said in a deep voice to the guard, if there was no urgency, Li Yuntian would not send someone to find him.
"See the Earl." Immediately, a guard from the Zhongwang Mansion was brought in by the previous guards and solemnly bowed to Li Manshan.
"What does the prince have to command?" Li Manshan asked quietly after waving off his men in the room, it was obvious that the guard was here to deliver the news.
"Lord Earl, this letter is from the prince." The guard pulled an envelope out of his bosom and handed it over.
Li Manshan opened the envelope and looked at it, his brows suddenly furrowed slightly, and a look of surprise appeared on his face.
It turned out that there were four big characters written on the paper in the letter: retreat bravely from the rapids.
Obviously, Li Yuntian told Li Manshan to let him resign from the post of Fusi of Jinyi Weibei Town, which was more or less sudden for Li Manshan, Li Yuntian had never intervened in his affairs in Jinyi Weibei Town Fusi before.
"You go back and tell the prince, Benbo knows how to do it, please rest assured." Although he felt quite surprised in his heart, Li Manshan did not resist in his heart, he also knew the court situation very well, and knew that Li Yuntian must be doing this for his good, so he put away the paper and said in a deep voice to the guard who sent the letter.
The guard arched his hand to Li Manshan and left, Li Manshan paced back and forth in place a few times, and then burned the letter in his hand, he knew that this kind of thing could not be kept, otherwise it would be another storm once it was discovered.
After burning the letter, Li Manshan came to the desk and leaned over to write a letter of transfer, begging the orthodox emperor to allow him to go home to recuperate and find someone to replace the post of Fusi of Jinyi Weibei Town.
