The first assistant of the poor family

Chapter 276 Abolition of the East Factory?

After reading the content of Ma Shangshu's memorial, Xie Shen's first feeling was that the writing was too good.

In fact, such things as writing are icing on the cake, and do not play a decisive role.

However, if the courtier's writing is good, the emperor can feel comfortable and unconsciously be brought into the rhythm of the performer.

Tsk tsk, it seems that people who rely on pens for food can't do without two hands.

Ma Shangshu's ability to criticize the current situation is really top-notch, Xie Shen praised him.

But after the praise, I have to write by myself.

There is also a great deal of skill in this sort of thing, and timing is crucial.

If the accompaniment is too late, it will basically have no effect, and will be submerged in the vast melodies.But if the accompaniment is too early, it will make the emperor suspect whether these people have discussed it in advance.

The timing is not bad now, at least the palace newspaper has been transcribed and distributed to all yamen, and Ma Shangshu's memorial is now public.

Xie Shen thought about it for a while, then took up a pen and wrote the memorandum. The core is undoubtedly those proposed by Ma Wensheng, but the young man added some of his own thinking from a different angle.

In a short time, Xie Shen wrote the memorial.After reading it again from the beginning to confirm that there was nothing wrong with the words, he nodded in satisfaction.

Xie Shen summoned a servant from the Hanlin Academy Office and asked him to deliver the memorial to Huiji Gate.

Working hours are always difficult, especially for "leisure officials" like Xie Shen.

At the end of the day, Xie Shen only felt sore all over his body.

Alas, writers are suffering, so find an opportunity to exercise more.

Back in the Xu Mansion, the bookboy Chen Hu'er came over and handed a letter to Xie Shen.

"My lord, this letter is for you."

"Who sent the letter?"

"I don't know about that. I only know that it was delivered by a ten-year-old doll. He left it with the door officer and left."

Xie Shen rolled his eyes, he didn't even know who the sender was, did he plan to ask him to guess charades?
Xie Shen reluctantly took the letter, pulled out the letter paper and unfolded it.

I saw only a few numbers on the letter paper.

Come to Deng's Mansion, Jinxian Street, Yongfang, within an hour.

Although there was no signature, Xie Shen immediately understood that the letter was written by the eunuch Deng Yuan, the royal horse supervisor in the palace.

Deng Yuan once told Xie Shen that he had a house in Yongfang when he was young, and he would live there when he was not on duty.If the two meet in the future to discuss matters, they will choose there.

This is for the sake of Xie Shen's reputation, after all, it doesn't sound very nice for the dignified Imperial Academy to make friends with eunuchs in the palace.

Xie Shen couldn't help feeling that these eunuchs were quite righteous.

Before he had time to rest for a while to drink, he ordered: "Prepare the sedan chair and go to Xiaoyongfang."

Xiaoyongfang, Dengfu.

Deng Yuan paced back and forth in the house anxiously. A few days ago, Ding Zhe, a doctor of the Ministry of Justice, and Wang Jue, a member of Yuanwai Lang, were imprisoned. Because the matter involved Yang Peng, the eunuch of the East Factory, the judicial department sentenced Ding Zhe and Wang Jue to move to the side to please Yang Peng.

As soon as this incident broke out, Xu Gui, the official of the Ministry of Punishment, felt indignant, so he bluntly spoke up.

Deng Yuan entrusted his personal relationship to transcribe a copy of the memorandum, and shook his head after reading it.

The fierceness of the language and words in this memorial is unprecedented.As soon as Xu Gui's memorial was published, the emperor was furious like a thunderbolt.

If it was someone else who went to bed, Deng Yuan would at most sigh and sigh, and would not take it too seriously.But Xu Gui is different, this is his own brother-in-law.

Deng Yuan was just a younger sister. If Xu Gui really offended the emperor and was beheaded, then the younger sister would be a widow.

And it's not that simple.

Yang Peng and Li Guang have been on good terms, and Li Guang has always held a grudge against Deng Yuan. This time, he will definitely make a big fuss, suggesting to Yang Peng that Xu Gui's going to Shu was instructed by Deng Yuan.

In this way, Yang Peng will hate Deng Yuan to the bone, and Deng Yuan's life in the palace will be even more difficult.

Thinking of this, Deng Yuan hurriedly wrote a letter and sent it to Xie Shen, hoping that the clever and resourceful Imperial Academy editor could give him an idea.

Just as he was hesitating, someone came to report that Mr. Xie had arrived, Deng Yuan Daxi hurriedly waved his hand and asked the door to invite Xie Shen to the side hall.At this moment, Deng Yuan didn't care about his appearance, he straightened his clothes a little and went to the side hall.

"Thank you Xiu for saving me!"

As soon as he entered the side hall, Deng Yuan greeted Xie Shen.

Xie Shen was really helpless.Can this Eunuch Deng have something new in his words? Why did he ask someone to save him as soon as we met?

"Eunuch Deng, don't be anxious, and speak slowly."

Since Xie Shen has regarded Deng Yuan as an ally in the palace, it is natural to put himself in Deng Yuan's shoes and consider for Deng Yuan.

If allies are in trouble, it would be too dishonest not to help each other.

Deng Yuan shared the whole story with Xie Shen, and couldn't help sighing: "Our brother-in-law is really worrying. Fortunately, this time he was only detained in the Ministry of Punishment, and he was not sent to prison, otherwise."

Having said that, Deng Yuan couldn't help wiping away tears.

Xie Shen took a deep breath.

This Eunuch Deng's brother-in-law turned out to be Xu Gui?

Xie Shen still has some impressions of this official of the Ministry of Punishment.

In history, in December of the ninth year of Hongzhi, Xu Gui once defended Ding Zhe, a doctor of the Ministry of punishment, and Wang Jue, a member of the Ministry of punishment, and wrote a memorial.

Emperor Hongzhi was furious and dismissed Xu Gui's official position on the grounds of disobedience, and sent him back to his hometown to serve the people.

Because many bigwigs were involved in this incident, it was a sensation at the time, and many historical records were left behind.

But it's only July now, why those two unlucky ones went to jail, could it be that the butterfly effect brought about by Xie Shen's time travel has already been fully produced?

Deng Yuan waved his hand and said, "Xie Xiuzhuan, let's take a look at the content of this memorial, alas"

Xie Shen nodded, then walked to the desk and unfolded the copy of the memorial to read.

"I have been in the Ministry of Punishment for three years. Whenever I see thieves being arrested and questioned, the Fusi of Duodongchang Township captures them, or the school lieutenant framed them privately, or revenge for others, or is ordered by the chief evil to use others to pay for the crime. The criminal officer sees his feelings, dare not Correction, so that many people are killed in vain. I hope that your majesty will go to Dongchang to eliminate the source of disaster, and then the world will be peaceful. If you are a little bit driven, you know that you will inevitably die. It is better to die in the court than to die in the mouth of a tiger. May your majesty behead you. First, if you can carry out what you say, you will die without hatred."

Hiss, even though it was scorching July, Xie Shen still couldn't help feeling chills in his back.

Did Xu Gui want to die? He actually wrote such a "court death" memorial.

In Xie Shen's opinion, this memorial is comparable to Hai Rui's letter scolding Jiajing.

If Xie Shen remembers correctly, the eunuch who is in charge of the ceremony should be Wang Yue.And Yang Peng, the chief eunuch of Bingbi and concurrently the admiral of the East Factory.

Although Xiao Jing was very senior, he only ranked second among the four eunuchs who were in charge of ceremonies and Bingbi, and was overwhelmed by Yang Peng.

So the current situation is that Xu Gui offended the second eunuch in the palace, Yang Peng, the admiral and eunuch of the East Factory who was in the limelight.
