Ming Dynasty: My Brother-in-law is Zhu Youxiao - Chapter 422

  Chapter 422 Dare to seek personal gain for the family, strictly investigate!

   Zhang Gui frowned after seeing these remarks through the newspapers, so he asked Liu Zongmin: “Has Li Sutai, the envoy who established slavery, left?”

“left already.”

   Liu Zongmin replied.

  Therefore, Zhang Gui thought for a while, and ordered: “Go and find out, who is secretly spreading these remarks that the court should accept the surrender method of enslavement!”

“yes!”

  Zhang Gui is keenly aware that what is spreading such remarks today is definitely not considering the interests of the country and the nation, but for his own personal interests!

   This made Zhang Gui feel helpless.

  He knew that he really couldn’t expect to completely solve the self-interested thoughts of many bureaucrats and scholar-bureaucrats within a few short years of the imperial examination system reform, and it can even be said that it will never be solved.

   After all, human nature is like this.

  There are always people who will only settle their own accounts for military matters, and will not calculate the accounts of the country and the nation.

  Zhang Gui actually knows that he should be content with bringing Daming to where he is today.

   Moreover, given Daming’s current situation, it is very difficult for him to perish within a few decades. He only needs to find a way to ensure the safety and prosperity of his family.

  But Zhang Gui is now unconsciously in the position of participating in the ruling of Ming Dynasty, so it is hard not to think about making the most correct choice in his heart.

   After all, he is different from the dignitaries of this era. The education he received told him that when making a choice, he should consider the long-term interests of the country and the nation.

   Especially as a meat eater.

  Because the country is a tool of the ruler, as a carnivore, you cannot destroy your own tool.

   “My minister Ma Guangyu, the censor of Guangxi Dao, impeached his uncle Zhang Gui for arrogating power and doing evil, and monopolizing the government. There are twelve major crimes that should be punished!”

However, what Zhang Gui didn’t expect was that when he learned that there were a lot of remarks that were not conducive to the established policy of the imperial court to treat slavery, Ma Guangyu, the imperial censor of Guangxi, suddenly went to impeach him, and directly listed Thirty-two deadly sins against him.

  This is something that many people did not expect.

It’s not that everyone didn’t expect that Ma Guangyu would fabricate so many crimes that Zhang Gui should punish, but they didn’t expect that Ma Guangyu would have the courage to dare to do so when Zhang Gui is now almost equivalent to the first minister of Ming Dynasty. Shangshu impeached him.

  Wen Tiren couldn’t help finding Ma Guangyu, and asked, “Are you crazy? Why do you want to impeach Uncle Zhang Guo so suddenly?!”

   “I’m not crazy! I did it after careful consideration!”

Ma Guangyu didn’t know that Wen Tiren was a person who would follow the trend, but he only thought that Wen Tiren, the outspoken minister who used to dare to stand in the way to prevent the emperor from being in Zhang Guojiu, was also like him, knowing how to stand flexibly, so he could tell the truth sue.

  Wen Tiren asked after hearing this: “What do you mean by that?”

“Mr. Ge, please think about it. Zhang Guojiu had the opportunity to be enthroned by His Majesty and become the emperor, but he didn’t do it. What does this mean? It shows that this Zhang Guojiu is a true loyal minister! And the courtier who was recommended by Zhang Guojiu Military generals are mostly loyal ministers and good generals, not their private parties! Otherwise, his Uncle Zhang would not want to let go of the throne, instead of helping the prince to persuade him. This shows that most of the civil servants and generals who followed Uncle Zhang also thought of him. Do!”

   Ma Guangyu said at this time.

  Wen Tiren nodded: “That makes sense!”

  Ma Guangyu continued: “So, this uncle Guo is undoubtedly a good minister loyal to Daming! And the more loyal he is, the more suitable he is for impeachment and bullying, so as to use his reputation!”

“Think about why Wang Anshi and Zhang Juzheng were so powerful in the past, and there were still officials who impeached them recklessly, because they knew that although these two were ministers of power, they were not traitors, and they would not punish the officials too hard. Therefore, for my impeachment this time, Zhang Guojiu will definitely not be able to do anything to me. Even, if anything unfavorable happens to me in the future, people in the world will regard it as Zhang Guojiu’s persecution of me!”

  Wen Tiren laughed and said after hearing this, “Sure enough, you answered the saying ‘People are good and are deceived’?”

   “That’s exactly the reason.”

   Ma Guangyu said with a smile quite complacently.

  As Ma Guangyu said, Zhang Gui did have trouble with Ma Guangyu impeaching himself at this time.

  Because he knew that if he punished Ma Guangyu, he would indeed be regarded as persecuting Ma Guangyu himself.

  Before he thought of a good solution, Zhang Gui took the matter of Ma Guangyu’s impeachment and asked the emperor to kill him.

   But who knows, Zhang Gui’s actions made Ma Guangyu more convinced of his guess and intensified his efforts.

   On this day, as soon as Zhang Gui returned home, he was stopped by Ma Guangyu.

   “Zhang Thief! You have the guts to keep Zhongwu’s memorial to impeach you without authorization, but don’t you have the guts to let His Majesty issue a decree?!”

  Ma Guangyu therefore directly scolded Zhang Gui in the street, and called Zhang Gui a thief.

  Liu Zongmin was so angry that he couldn’t help asking first: “Master Guo, why don’t you let Xichang arrest him first!”

   “No rush!”

   Zhang Gui said something.

  At the same time, killing intent began to appear in his eyes.

   Zhang Gui is actually not a person who cares about his own reputation. Now he has not dealt with Ma Guangyu, but he has not found a reason, and he is just thinking about how to deal with it.

  Ma Guangyu actually knew that although Zhang Guojiu was a loyal minister of Daming, he was also a person who would take revenge. He could gain his reputation from him, but he had to prevent being caught by Zhang Guojiu.

Therefore, Ma Guangyu just scolded a few words, did not dare to really break into Zhang Gui’s house, and after leaving the Yimen of Sui Guogong’s mansion, he returned home and told his family: “Go tell them, when the money arrives, Send it to my hometown! Don’t send it to the capital. The capital has a lot of eyeliner in Xichang. Now that I hate this uncle, I will definitely be targeted. But let Mr. Li rest assured that as long as I am fine, other people will follow It will be fine if he impeaches Uncle Zhang Guo! His method of throwing stones to ask for directions will be regarded as the right one!”

“yes!”

  Ma Guangyu’s family therefore agreed.

  Not long after Zhang Gui returned home, Liu Zongmin suddenly came to report that Wen Tiren asked to see him.

   Zhang Gui hurriedly met with Wen Tiren.

   “Uncle Guo, Wansheng came to see you for nothing but Ma Guangyu’s business.”

  Be warm and benevolent.

  In order to show respect for Zhang Gui, although Wen Tiren is a cabinet minister, in front of Zhang Gui, he specially called him late.

   Zhang Gui was taken aback after hearing this, and immediately asked, “What’s the matter with him?”

  Wen Tiren immediately gritted his teeth and said, “This person is really abominable! A thousand cuts is not an exaggeration!”

“Wansheng asked him specifically about impeaching you for him. He originally wanted to tell him that you are not a villainous and powerful person as some people smeared you, but a real loyal minister. Who would have thought that he would say that it is because he knows you It is a loyal minister who wants to bully you like this, and then take the opportunity to invite your name!”

Wen Tiren said and said: “But Wansheng thinks that he did this not just to invite fame, but he was probably instructed by someone to throw stones to ask for directions! He was deliberately testing whether it is necessary to let more ministers stand up to the court in the future some of the policies.”

  Zhang Gui nodded: “What you said is reasonable, so Ma Guangyu must be killed!”

   “Of course it must be killed!”

Wen Tiren said again: “There is a plan in late life, which can make this person be killed, but also make people in the world not admit that this matter was ordered by you, Uncle Guo, and make people in the world dare not mess with Uncle Guo again.” you.”

   “I also ask the old man to enlighten me!”
