Chapter 2096: Selling Oneself

In the yamen of Hejian Mansion, Liu Guan looked coldly at the officials outside the hall and said: "Hejian Mansion is not peaceful. Someone is colluding with the rebellious officials and traitors in Shandong with the intention of..."

Don't be plotting rebellion!

The officials all complained secretly: If they were judged as treason, most of the people present would be unlucky.

"...The intentions echo each other, to create trouble for the cleanup in Shandong! This is..."

"This is a provocation to the DPRK and this is disrespectful to His Majesty!"

Liu Guan's face gradually turned red, he waved his fist and shouted: "Severe punishment!"

Everyone nodded subconsciously.

They probably don't care about the life and death of others. As long as they don't pursue it on themselves, you, Liu Guan, can do whatever you want.

Liu Guan said murderously: "Those people are not simple. I think they must hate the cleanup of the gentry and the preferential treatment. How can your majesty feel at ease when such a group of people are on the edge of the capital?"

Liu Guan's attitude was different from Fang Xing's. He was very slow in setting the tone, and he also insisted on being logical.

If Fang Xing were here, all he would have to do is say "treacherous ministers and traitors" and then take action.

"Inform all places that Hejian Mansion will be cleared and donated immediately. If anyone dares..."

There was a cold look in Liu Guan's eyes, and he slashed with his right hand like a knife.

"For the sake of Your Majesty and the Ming Dynasty, these rebellious officials and traitors must be punished!"

Following Liu Guan's murderous declaration, fast horses galloped throughout Hejian Mansion, bringing the latest decision.

"Check and donate! Check and donate!"

The horse was galloping on the road, but its target was the capital.

The news was sent to the capital as quickly as possible, and then the capital became eerily silent.

——Xinghe Bo Fangxing recalled the Jubaoshan Guards from outside and stationed them in various places in Hejian Prefecture.

——Liu Guan, the censor of Zuodu, is in charge of Hejian Mansion, and his command is steady, effectively intimidating those rebellious ministers and traitors!

Fang Xing actually gave up the initiative to Liu Guan?

This is everyone’s first question!

And Liu Guan left no room for cleaning and dedication. This is the second question, a question that makes people's scalp numb!

"Fang Xing is asking Liu Guan to submit a letter of surrender and loyalty, and he is watching coldly from the side. But Liu Guan is a fool. For the sake of his official career, he actually..."

"She actually sold herself!"

Liu Guan's reputation was not good to begin with, and now he was nailed to the 'pillar of shame' by many people as a sycophant.

And Fang Xing asked someone to send his eldest son to him, which was weird no matter how you looked at it.

News came out from Fangjiazhuang: Because Hejian Mansion was disturbed, Fang Xing was worried that his eldest son would be tricked. The emperor was beyond his reach and could not take care of both, so he had to ask his servant to send him there.

"This is a sign of weakness!"

Jin Youzi said helplessly: "Who dares to touch his eldest son? Who dares to touch his wife and children? According to his nature, it is to fight to the death, and it will spread the tragedy of the three clans, who dares?"

He supported Huang Huai for a walk outside the duty room, with sadness on his brows.

Huang Huai's complexion got better and his coughing became less severe. He gently broke away from Jin Youzi's support and said, "That's a gesture, a gesture for Your Majesty. Think about it, he Fang Xing can't even save his wife and children. It's obvious The powerful people in the capital are so arrogant and domineering, doesn’t your Majesty just want this reputation?”

Jin Youzi was worried about running into him, so he moved away and said, "Who says it's not the case! We can't hide this matter from us, but some idiots don't want to be coaxed, and then they go and have sex. I won't tell you what His Majesty will do next." The man who wakes up will take the opportunity to kill a few people, and at least he will be able to establish his authority for cleaning up the capital in the future."

Jin Youzi was startled, turned sideways to support Huang Huai again, and whispered, "Fang Xing did this on purpose?"

Huang Huai nodded and said: "It should be so, and His Majesty probably acquiesced."

"When Hejian Mansion comes, the whole north will be in turmoil, especially in the capital. It will be difficult for those powerful people to deal with it. It doesn't matter if they move or not, it will be chaos all at once."

Huang Huai sighed and said: "What your Majesty wants is the country, and what you want is to command and prohibit, just like an arm and a finger. And those gentry are tigers and wolves blocking the road. If you don't clean up the sharp claws and teeth of tigers and wolves,

How can this road be smooth? "

Jin Youzi nodded and said gloomily: "But after all... the suppression was too much."

Huang Huai said meaningfully: "Don't think so much. Your Majesty is not willing to be tied up. Those people started planning after Emperor Wen's death, but the most stupid thing is to make your Majesty today be wary. He is the emperor of benevolence." They saw the crisis of imperial power, so those people naturally became a thorn in their side and a thorn in their flesh, but they are still complacent. Isn't this stupid? "

Zhu Gaochi's reign was very short. From the initial cooperation, the monarch and his ministers gradually drifted apart. It was just power that caused trouble.

However, the struggle for power alerted Zhu Zhanji. He believed that there should not be the atmosphere like that of the Hong Xi Dynasty between monarchs and ministers. That was not normal!

so…..

"Either the minister overpowers the king, or the king overpowers the minister, do you understand? This is when Emperor Wen's teachings come out."

Jin Youzi smiled bitterly and said, "Not only that, Fang Xing said a lot of bad things about the gentry and civil servants behind their backs."

Huang Huai stopped, looked at the eaves in front of him, and murmured: "What can he say if he has no clue? Aren't those people greedy and making mistakes everywhere?"

Jin Youzi suddenly laughed and said: "He has offended many powerful people, including his uncle."

…

The British government's income is high, but its expenses are also high.

The biggest source of income is the produce of the fields.

Mrs. Wu looked at the infant child, smiling so hard that she couldn't even see her eyes.

The maids and nannies around all focused their attention on the face of the child in the cradle.

This was Zhang Mao, the child who made the whole Duke of Ying excited.

In the midst of the joy, someone outside came to report: "Madam, the second and third wives are here."

Wu's face gradually faded. She handed the child to the wet nurse and said, "Please come in."

Not long after, the two women came in with a smile.

These two were Zhang Fu's two sisters-in-law, the wives of Zhang Da Che and Zhang Xiao Che.

"Sister-in-law, this child looks really strong! I think he will definitely inherit the bravery of his eldest brother and support the Duke of Ying's mansion."

The second wife first praised the child, and then praised Wu for her good recovery after childbirth, and she looked more charming than before...

Seeing that the second wife was talking enthusiastically, the third wife also reluctantly praised a few words, but the look she gave the child was inevitably a little dim.

The Duke's Mansion must be passed down, but Zhang Fu has not had an heir for a long time. If it continues, he must choose one of the children from their two families to adopt.

Zhang Mao's birth broke this fantasy, and they couldn't help but feel regretful.

Wu just dealt with it casually, not being rude.

The second wife said a lot of nice things, then drank half a cup of tea, and then talked about business.

"Sister-in-law..."

The second wife glanced at the maids and nannies around her, Wu sighed secretly, and then waved her hand.

Apart from the wet nurse and the child, there were only these three sisters-in-law left in the room.

Wu's indifferent expression did not stop the second wife from speaking. She whispered, "That brother-in-law has moved the Hejian Mansion!"

Wu said calmly, "So what? We women can only help the mansion, and there is absolutely no reason for us to interfere in political affairs."

The third wife couldn't help but say, "Sister-in-law, someone outside said that the cleanup of the surrender will eventually fall on us! The Duke's Mansion has handed over all the land in Shandong... Sister-in-law, those nobles have something to say..."

Wu asked coldly, "What did they say?"
