False eunuch in late Ming Dynasty

Chapter 57

"Long live the emperor, long live!" Wei Zhongxian knelt down in front of Zhu Youjian obediently.Speaking of which, Wei Zhongxian hadn't kneeled like this for a long time.

"Hey. Everyone calls you nine thousand years old. You're almost on an equal footing with me." Zhu Youjian smiled coldly. This feeling of being in control of the overall situation made him very refreshed.

"Don't dare, this old slave doesn't dare. That's the title given to this old slave by the late emperor." Wei Zhongxian couldn't help it at this time.We can only use the dead Emperor Apocalypse to prevent disasters.

"You must remember your duty, otherwise you will cause disaster." After Zhu Youjian finished speaking, he threw a memorial directly on the ground, "Look at it! If it weren't for your hard work for the royal family, this The matter should be discussed by the ministers in the hall today. I pressed this memorial to save some face for you. It can also be regarded as a little care for your hard work over the years. You can take care of yourself in the future!"

Zhu Youjian never let Wei Zhongxian get up from the beginning to the end, and kept Wei Zhongxian kneeling on the ground.Wei Zhongxian flipped through the memorial, his hands trembled, and he didn't even know it fell to the ground.Hastily confessed: "Your Majesty, I have been wronged! This old slave is loyal to the Emperor and to Daming. Although some things have gone too far, they are all for the sake of Daming. Nowadays, ministers and civil officials are greedy for money. Military generals are afraid of death. If things go on like this, the country will suffer a catastrophe. The old slave has become the top ten crimes for the royal family. This is really unreasonable."

Zhu Youjian snorted coldly: "It may not be without reason. How many days of angry things you have done in the palace, you know it yourself, and I know it too. But let's not blame the past. It is because you have done a lot for the royal family. These merits and demerits offset each other. This matter will stop here, and it will calm down a bit in the future. Retire!"

Wei Zhongxian knelt on the ground and secretly looked at Zhu Youjian several times.He couldn't figure out what kind of medicine Zhu Youjian was selling in his gourd.Wei Zhongxian is not completely without a little bit of resistance. At one point, he finds that he is at the end of the road, and those forces that have been deeply hidden will be revealed, the most difficult battle.But Zhu Youjian didn't seem to intend to drive him to a dead end.

Wei Zhongxian couldn't understand the little emperor in front of him who he thought he could easily control.

"The old slave will leave." Wei Zhongxian was old, and after kneeling for so long, his knees were already numb, and when he stood up, his legs were not stable at all.

"Come here." Zhu Youjian shouted, and immediately walked in two Jinyiwei from the door.

"Send Eunuch Wei back." Zhu Youjian said.

"Yes." Two Jin Yiwei helped Wei Zhongxian up and left.

Recently, for the safety of the palace, Luo Sigong sent a large number of Jinyi guards into the palace to protect the safety of the palace.

Wei Zhongxian also felt cold, knowing that Zhu Youjian did this to guard against him.

"Hey!" Wei Zhongxian sighed, maybe it was because he wasted the opportunity because he didn't start early?Still sighing at the end of the day.

As soon as Wei Zhongxian left, Zhu Youjian laughed loudly: "Cao Qing, Cao Qing, come out quickly. Today is really enjoyable. This old man Wei will also have today! Back then, when I first entered the palace, He didn't pay attention to me at all. When he saw me, he never knelt or posed. He didn't regard me as the emperor at all. But today, as you saw, he knelt down in front of me obediently, completely He no longer has the arrogance he used to. It's a pity for this old dog to let him go like this."

"Your Majesty, I don't think it's time for liquidation yet. If Wei Zhongxian is liquidated at this time, then the Civil Service Group will take the opportunity to take over immediately, and then naturally the Civil Service Group will dominate. We shouldn't take action on this matter, we have to let them bite dogs. Then there is a vacancy, we can put our own people in it." Cao Qing said.

"Well, Cao Qing, you're right. I almost made a mistake. We now have to guard against Wei Zhongxian's henchmen internally and civil servant groups externally. No matter externally or internally, we must use what you said to attract some and divide some, Crack down on some of them. Finally, strive to disintegrate their cliques. Forming cliques for personal gain is the scourge of all dynasties." Zhu Youjian thought for a while and said.

"Your Majesty, the Liuli Factory has just been established, and the Liuli Shop has to work hard to manage it. For a while, it will be difficult for me to come to the palace." Cao Qing remembered that there were still many things to do. Do it, let Zhu Youjian make it clear first.

"Cao Qing, don't worry about what you want to do. No matter what others say about you in front of me in the future, I will not believe it. Because we are not only monarchs and ministers, but brothers and sisters." Zhu Youjian said.

"Brother Huang, can I come in?" A female voice suddenly sounded from outside.

"My imperial sister is here, you hide for now. You can leave after I send her away." Zhu Youjian said.

The one who came was naturally Zhu Huiti, Zhu Youjian's most beloved sister.Although Zhu Huiti came from Xili, Zhu Youjian has always been very fond of him.

"Sister Huang, what are you doing in the imperial study instead of resting in the bedroom at such a late hour?" Zhu Youjian asked.

"Brother Huang, my younger sister has something to ask. I beg you to agree." Zhu Huiti behaved very differently from usual today.

"Huiti, do you want the colored glaze from Fengtian Palace?" Zhu Youjian really knew this sister well.

"Brother Huang, how do you know? How is it? Is it okay or not?" Zhu Huiti asked.

"Okay. But it will take a while. You also know that the internal treasury is empty now, and I, the emperor, lack money and food. Now the drought is severe in various places, but I can't provide money and food to relieve the disaster. If this continues, something bad will happen. These colored glazes are very precious. I don't have enough silver in my hand to buy colored glaze for the imperial sister. But when the disaster is over and the emperor's brother has more money, he will give priority to buying glass for the imperial sister. Are you planning to place the glass in your bedroom? In?" Zhu Youjian asked.

"Exactly. But since Brother Huang is in such a difficult situation now, sister Huang naturally has to share his worries for him. I have some private money, and I will hand it over to Brother Huang." Zhu Huiti rolled her eyes and suddenly remembered the money in her hand. Seems like a lot of money.

Zhu Youjian smiled and said: "Your money should be kept for yourself. Brother Huang has his own way. I am going to let Cao Qing cooperate with the Xiyi people to open a Liuli shop. Naturally, I will have a share of the money. It's time I will use the money I earn for disaster relief."

"Brother Huang, that little eunuch Cao Qing is very cunning, you have to be careful of him. Who knows if he made money and stuffed it into his pocket?" Zhu Huiti said.

"Well. I will definitely pay attention. Go back quickly." Zhu Youjian urged.

"Okay. Brother Huang, then I'll go back first." Zhu Huiti turned and left.

After Zhu Huiti walked away, Cao Qing came out from behind the curtain.

"My imperial sister seems to have some opinions on you. When you meet him in the future, be careful. I can't control this imperial sister. It's a pity that you are a eunuch, otherwise I will marry my imperial sister to you." Zhu Said by the inspection.

Cao Qing originally wanted to take the opportunity to reveal his identity as a eunuch, but Zhu Youjian said that if he revealed his identity at this time, wouldn't it mean that he wanted to marry this princess?This princess or something, marrying back is not much different from marrying an ancestor.Especially Zhu Huiti, who looked like a spoiled child.After marrying back, does Cao Qing still want to have a peaceful family in the future?So when the words came to his mouth, he quickly retracted them.
