The days when I ransacked the house in Jinyiwei

Chapter 48
Fifteen days later, the capital, Qianqing Palace.

The news of the Taishan Earthquake and Disaster has spread throughout the capital through false rumors by the Jiangnan gentry and the Qilu gentry.

At the gate of Qianqing Palace, there are more than 20 civil servants kneeling.

Most of these civil servants are sixth-rank chiefs, seventh-rank censors and other small officials.

There is only one seventy-year-old man wearing a second-grade golden pheasant robe.

Under the leadership of the second-rank officer, this group of petty officials shouted eight words hoarsely: "Mount Tai is moving, and the East Palace is not moving!"

This group of people are naturally Wynn's people.Their rank is not high, and their number is not large, and they appear to be weak in the court.

However, their leader, the second-rank official, was the most ruthless person in the late Chenghua Dynasty.

He is—a literati-born fierce general; a model worker surrounded by fishers; an elegant man who cuts people with a knife; the best friend of the good eunuch Wynn; the bully who guards the eunuch; Wang Shu, the protector of the weak prince. !

Wang Shu was the censor of the right capital of the Metropolitan Procuratorate at that time.

He was a Jinshi in the Baozong era, and he squatted in the Imperial Academy for several years, studying knowledge.Later transferred to Dali Temple to do judicial work.

During his stay in Dali Temple, he wrote a letter stating the disadvantages of punishment.Affirmed by the court, he was promoted to magistrate of Yangzhou.

In Yangzhou, he vigorously established academies and made remarkable achievements in cultivating talents.

There was a famine in Yangzhou, and he opened warehouses to release grain without the permission of the court.

Subordinates said it was against the rules.Wang Shu replied: "When the old men in Beijing finish their prevarication and the government order is issued, I am afraid that all the hungry people in Yangzhou will starve to death! Open the warehouse!"

In the fourth year of Tianshun, bandits in Ganzhou were in chaos.The imperial court ordered Wang Shu to be the chief envoy of Jiangxi Province to counter the rebellion.

Wang Shu used both suppression and appeasement.He vigorously suppressed the stubborn bandits.In battle, as a governor of a province, he led the way on horseback.

A man who was born as a Jinshi in the second list and was a civil servant in the Imperial Academy, actually went into battle and slashed people with a knife!He also personally beheaded three rebel heads!
Wang Shu became one of the few civil servants in the Ming Dynasty who received a head reward.

In the first year of Chenghua, Jingxiang refugees rebelled.Wang Shu appeased and resolved.

In the second year of Chenghua, the thief Liu Tong rebelled.Wang Shu took up his sword again and put down the rebellion.

After that, he served as the governor of Henan and managed the localities; as the governor of rivers, he worked in water conservancy;

It can be said that Wang Shu is basically a brick of the Ming Dynasty, and it can be moved wherever it is needed.

When his colleagues are all taking revenge, he can be called a model worker.

No wonder people at the time commented: "There are twelve ministries in the two capitals, and there is only one Wang Shu."

In the past few years, Yunnan has had border conflicts with An Nanguo from time to time.The imperial court promoted Wang Shu to be the censor of the right capital, and went to negotiate as an imperial envoy.

Wang Shu expressed his interests to Annan's envoy.It should be hard when it should be hard, and it should be soft when it should be soft.The prestige is spread far and wide at home and abroad.

Emperor Chenghua was a typical example of ruling the world with his family slaves.Guard eunuchs were stationed in every province.

The guarding eunuchs have soldiers and power in the local area, just like the emperor of the land.Even the governors of the provinces dare not mess with them.

Qian Neng, the guarding eunuch in Yunnan, was greedy and amassed stolen money wantonly in Kunming.

Wang Shu originally wanted to kill him, but Qian can do things meticulously, and Lao Wang really couldn't find any evidence.

In a rage, Wang Dameng tricked Qian Neng into the mansion in the name of a banquet.Then the five flowers were tied up, and Qian Neng was beaten violently with a big stick in person.

No other meaning, no crime.I just want to beat you up.

A foreign minister beat the emperor's confidant domestic servant, is that okay?
It never occurred to her that the chief eunuch Qian Neng was a typical scumbag.

After being beaten by Wang Shu, he not only did not retaliate, but admired Wang Shu.

Qian Neng would say to everyone: "The prince is honest. The six officials and the three elders in the cabinet are not worthy to carry shoes for the prince!"

Wang Shu ruled Yunnan as an imperial envoy for nine months, and the territory was awe-inspiring.

After returning to Beijing, Emperor Chenghua did not have any good impression of this person who tirelessly offered sharp suggestions every morning, so he was not promoted to an official position.

Wang Shu is Wynn's best friend.Wynn had already agreed with him that when a disaster occurred on Mount Tai, he would take the lead immediately, admonishing the emperor that the East Palace should not change hands.

In the main hall of the Qianqing Palace, Emperor Chenghua was engaging in a ritual of supporting the spirits and asking the hexagrams with the Taoist Jing Yuan, asking the heavens why there was an earthquake and disaster on Mount Tai.

The cries of Wang Shu's group at the gate of the palace disturbed Emperor Chenghua.

Emperor Chenghua ordered Shang Ming: "Let the king forgive them and leave Qianqing Palace quickly."

Not long after, Shang Ming replied: "Your Majesty, Wang Shu is too bold. He actually said that."

Emperor Chenghua asked, "What did he say?"

Shang Ming said: "He said that the emperor listened to the slander of Concubine Wan Gui, demoted the virtuous officials, and had the heart to abolish the reserve. Of course God will be angry!"

"This time, God sent down a strange disaster on Mount Tai as a warning. If the emperor persists in his obsession, next time the Qianqing Palace may collapse!"

A minister dared to curse Qianqing's palace to collapse.Is this okay?
Chenghua Emperor Longyan was furious, and let out a dragon roar: "You are bullying the sky!"

"Shang Ming, ask Jin Yiwei to beat him with thirty court sticks on the spot!"

Shang Ming's heart blossomed with joy.He rushed to the gate of the palace to deliver the decree.

Several Jinyiwei school captains stepped forward, pressed Wang Shu to the ground, and stretched his hips with big sticks while speaking.

However, who is Wang Shu?I have beaten wolves in Nanshan, tigers in Beishan, and Jin Yiwei who was afraid of hedgehogs in the pumpkin field?
Wang Shu turned over with a kite, sprang up from the ground, and snatched the big stick from the execution captain's hand.

With a few left and right sticks, he knocked down several Jinyiwei captains around him!

Wang Shu didn't talk about the sneak attack of martial arts, and all the captains of Jinyiwei, Dongchang Banzi, and the general Han were all dumbfounded!

What is this operation?
The emperor issued an order to beat the court staff of the minister.How dare the minister seize the stick and attack the execution captain?
This kind of situation has never happened since the founding of Ming Dynasty!
It was still Shang Ming who reacted quickly, and he shouted: "Wang Shu is rebelling against you! Arrest him quickly. After the ceremony of asking the hexagram is over, I will hand it over to the emperor!"

Dozens of Han generals came to their senses, rushed forward, and took a lot of effort to restrain Wang Shu.

At the same time, in the Palace of the Qing Dynasty, the ritual of asking the hexagrams about the destiny of the Ming Dynasty officially began!

Taoist Jing Yuan recited a set of Taoist incantations, then fell to the ground, foaming at the mouth, wriggling on the ground like a maggot.

This was originally a trick used by the country gods to fool the ignorant people, but Emperor Chenghua firmly believed in it.

Emperor Chenghua asked piously: "Dare to ask God, why did the strange disaster happen on Mount Tai?"

Jing Yuan stood up tremblingly, picked up a wooden stick in his hand, and pointed at the sand table.

Then he twitched all over his body, and wrote six words on the sand table with his hands trembling wildly, "If you want to destroy the East Palace, the sky is wrathful."

Jing Yuan naturally cannot communicate with God.He was bought by Wynn.

Since your concubine Wan Gui can buy monk Jixiao, why can't I, Huai En, buy Taoist Jing Yuan?
Emperor Chenghua was a devout feudal superstitionist who believed in God's will.

After seeing these six words, he was entangled in his heart.

One side is Concubine Wan Gui, and the other side is God.You can only choose one.

After a while, he made a decision: forget it.It is better to make the noble concubine sad than to offend God and bring disaster!

Don't be too sure that one day the capital will also shake, the Qianqing Palace will collapse, and I will be crushed under the rubble.
