Borrow the day to change the day

() Emperor Chongzhen looked at Zhong Jinwei with a smile, nodded and said: "Master Zhong is right, but I was wrong. In the future, Master Zhong will have to explain to me more, so that I can no longer limit myself to the previous pattern, and grow up. knowledge."

Zhong Jinwei quickly waved his hand: "Your Majesty, I don't dare to be a minister. Let's discuss together, and I have learned a lot from Your Majesty."

"Oh, what have you learned from me?" Emperor Chongzhen was a little curious when he heard this, and wanted to know what Zhong Jinwei had learned.

Zhong Jinwei was speechless, and treated Emperor Chongzhen politely, but in the end he took it seriously.But after thinking about it in a blink of an eye, he really did, so he replied: "Your Majesty, you are dedicated to the people, you have a broad mind, and you are not ashamed to ask your subordinates. You have left a deep impression on me."

Emperor Chongzhen laughed a few times, and then said to Zhong Jinwei: "Master Zhong, you have also learned to skate, and you will flatter me."

"Where, where, I have a basis."

"Then you tell me."

Zhong Jinwei stretched out a finger of his left hand and said: "One, Your Majesty is dedicated to serving the people. This can be seen from the fact that you have been worrying about competing with the people just now. Moreover, after His Majesty ascended the throne, he also lowered Liao's salary, which is also for the people. Think about it, those who don’t want to simply massacre the victims and turn them into thieves, too.”

Emperor Chongzhen just smiled, to see how much Zhong Jinwei could say.

"Secondly, Your Majesty can listen to all kinds of weird talks from the ministers, allow Xu Shilang to cooperate with foreigners, translate books, change the calendar, avoid literary prisons, and tolerate different opinions. This requires a broad mind. It is no better than that of Kang Mazi. , at most learn by yourself, and don’t allow others to do it.” Zhong Jinwei stretched out his second finger.

"Kang Mazi?" Emperor Chongzhen had never heard of this person.

"It's an emperor of the Qing Dynasty, with pockmarked face, commonly known as Kang Pockmark." Zhong Jinwei explained.

"This Kang, how did Kang Mazi do it?" Emperor Chongzhen still hesitated to call others insulting nicknames, but when he thought about it, it was Daming, especially the enemy of the Zhu family, he stopped hesitating, and imitated Zhong Jinwei and called out.

"He, known as the Holy Patriarch, is actually just bragging. He is forbidden to communicate with Westerners, and Chinese people are not allowed to learn foreign skills. He creates a literary inquisition. If he says a wrong word, he will be killed."

Emperor Chongzhen thought to himself: such a comparison, I really have a broad mind.Emperor Chongzhen felt beautiful in his heart, but he didn't feel it immediately. How could I compare myself with the barbarians?

Zhong Jinwei stretched out his third finger: "It goes without saying that the third point is shameless to ask, yes, Your Majesty."

The two monarchs and ministers looked at each other and laughed, both of them were very happy.

After finishing talking, I started to eat again. Fortunately, there was hot water under the food plate, which kept the dishes not cold and could be eaten.

Just eating and talking like this, it took nearly an hour to eat a meal.

After all the servants had packed up and exited the main hall, Emperor Chongzhen said to Zhong Jinwei: "Master Zhong, these days is an extraordinary period for the East Factory to close the net. You should be more careful. In order to prevent accidents, it is best to go to the Ceramics Factory For good, the Dongchang Panyu and Jinyiwei over there are enough to protect you. Moreover, you can also concentrate on cement and supervise the progress of the new kiln. This is our most important thing."

Emperor Chongzhen still couldn't forget the one-stop plan, but Zhong Jinwei's safety was also taken into consideration.

"Okay, I understand." Zhong Jinwei nodded.

In the past few days, there will definitely be a big storm in the court. Although he is protected by Emperor Chongzhen, it is better not to see it.If you really want to fight, go fight with the Westerners, forget about the internal fighting, and let Emperor Chongzhen and Wen Tiren do the domestic intrigue.

He didn't think about it, he ran away the chief assistant of the Ming Dynasty in minutes in the morning, and he could be regarded as a monster of the Ming Dynasty who caused troubles.Moreover, because of him, Daming's next Chief Assistant will be in trouble soon.

For the time being, Emperor Chongzhen had nothing to do, so Zhong Jinwei left and returned to the Earl's Mansion.

After Zhong Jinwei returned to the Earl's Mansion, he withdrew all the people who were monitoring the Hou's Mansion, including the two servants, it was no longer necessary.

Then he ordered Yu Haining to stay carefully in the Earl's Mansion and not to go out, and then took six other servants to the ceramic factory.

After arriving at the ceramics factory, the two watchmen went to rest.

Zhong Jinwei had nothing to do, so he took An Guiyi's tail and ran to see Wu Shengda and the others build a new kiln.

Although Zhong Jinwei didn't do it himself, he kept asking questions.While Wu Sheng was surprised by Zhong Jinwei's strong curiosity, he still answered every question he asked seriously.

An Guiyi saw that Zhong Jinwei, a big celebrity in front of the emperor, was mingling with craftsmen regardless of his noble status.He didn't dare to put on a show, followed Zhong Jinwei, and imitated Zhong Jinwei's words and deeds.He knew that his future wealth should rest on Zhong Jinwei.

The next day, there was an uproar in the court.No one expected that several censors impeached Emperor Chongzhen at the same time, Zhongxing Bo, who is currently in the limelight.

There are three reasons, one is lawlessness, rampant in the capital, the prince offended the prince, made a big disturbance in the prince's mansion, and beat the only son of Baoding marquis; , in the important place of the court, his words and deeds are rude, insulting important ministers, and he is not ashamed.

Emperor Chongzhen just watched them perform without expressing any opinions, and even the expression was consistent, making it impossible for people to figure out his thoughts.

A group of people found that the emperor hadn't said a word after the fuss, so they calmed down and waited for Emperor Chongzhen to express his opinion.

Emperor Chongzhen looked at the group of courtiers below, and suddenly asked Cheng Jiming: "I want to hear what the chief assistant thinks about this matter?"

Cheng Jiming originally wanted to go up and add a fire to burn Zhong Jinwei.Since Zhong Jinwei stood in the court, he has long disliked every time he sabotages his good deeds.

Now is the opportunity. With so many people impeaching together, not only will there be a lot of extra benefits in following the impeachment, but also greater confidence.No matter how popular you Zhongxing Bo are in front of the emperor, the emperor will still have to consider the opinions of so many ministers.

Thinking of this, Cheng Ji ordered the class to play: "Your Majesty, I think that Uncle Zhongxing is always a person who returned from overseas, and it is understandable for him not to understand the etiquette of the heavenly court. Now that he has done so many outrageous things, I suggest that he can be ordered to do so." He is not allowed to go out in the mansion, and the Ministry of Rites will send personnel to teach him etiquette until his words and deeds conform to the etiquette of the Celestial Dynasty."

As long as Emperor Chongzhen agreed to this request, and supplemented by follow-up measures, he was afraid that this uncle Zhongxing would come out and make trouble again.

Wen Tiren knew that Zhong Jinwei had no help in the court, and the few people he made friends with were not here, or they had important matters to train soldiers, or they were not qualified enough to stand in the court.Moreover, Zhong Jinwei is a great help to him, if he is not in the court, he will lose the most.In addition, he also knew Zhong Jinwei's weight in the emperor's heart, so if he didn't show it at this time, it would be later.

So, after thinking about it for a while, he went out to get ready to play.

Unexpectedly, at this time, Emperor Chongzhen stood up directly from the dragon chair, turned back to the apse without saying a word.The middle official who was accompanying him hurriedly shouted, "Retire."

The officials in the hall looked at each other in blank dismay, not knowing which one Emperor Chongzhen was playing.

Emperor Chongzhen turned into the apse, Wang Chengen, the admiral of the East Factory, and Luo Yangxing, the commander of Jinyiwei, were already waiting here.

Emperor Chongzhen said to them, "Do it."

The two were ordered to withdraw and act separately.It's been a long time since I went out to do errands so legitimately, so I have to behave well now.

Wang Chengen led the Dongchang soldiers to collect the net and arrested Li Fengxiang, the admiral of the Beijing camp, and Liang Shixun, the Marquis of Baoding, on charges of treason.

Luo Yangxing led Jin Yiwei to the Ministry of Criminal Justice, presented his will and the confession of the housekeeper of Baoding Hou Mansion, and asked the Ministry of Criminal Justice to stamp the driving post on the matter, and arrested several censors for corruption and bribery.

The Criminal Ministry showed him the evidence, and was afraid that Jin Yiwei would trouble him in the future, because his butt was not clean, so he obediently stamped it.

Holding the stamped driving note, Luo Yangxing secretly admired Dongchang's methods. He was able to arrest key bribers at the right time and quickly obtain their confessions. It seemed that he had done a lot beforehand.

On this day, the factory guards were dispatched one after another to arrest people everywhere.For a while, the officials in the capital were terrified, not knowing what had happened.

Representatives of several forces met one after another to go to the cabinet to find Shoufu and ask for advice.

Unexpectedly, Cheng Jiming was not in the cabinet, but went home to recuperate from a sudden illness.

The situation was urgent, so I had to visit Shoufu's house again, but the door was closed and no one was seen.
