The rise of the poor

"Yan Lan, just wait, I will come back. Even though you are frivolous, it is not your fault. You are all treacherous, despicable, dishonest, inferior to animals, arrogant, hypocritical and insidious Zhu Ping'an. You were deceived, I don't dislike you." Ouyang Zishi's voice coming from a distance was full of unwillingness and struggle.

"Wang Ma, you guys have to work harder these days. Take turns guarding the door. Don't let him step into my yard again!"

When Yan Lan heard Ouyang Zishi's voice, her eyebrows furrowed in disgust, her pretty face deformed with anger, and she ordered through gritted teeth.

"Miss, don't worry, we only listen to your orders and we will never let that kid enter the yard again."

Wang Ma and other older ladies with big shoulders and round waists responded one after another. They were all old people in Yan Lan's courtyard and they only listened to Yan Lan.

"The crabapple tree outside the door was chopped down and used as firewood. It was hugged by a stupid pig and is only worthy of being used as firewood."

Yan Lan ordered again.

Crows love the house and hate the house. Now whenever she sees the crabapple tree in the yard, Miss Yan Er thinks of the scene of Ouyang Zishi clinging to the tree like a stupid pig and not letting go. She is extremely disgusted and an eyesore.

"As you order, miss."

Several little girls immediately accepted the order, and soon the crabapple tree was cut down and thrown into the woodshed and burned.

The poor crabapple tree suffered a disaster because of Ouyang Zishi.

After a while, Yan Lan thought of something and ordered her maid, "Go to the front yard and ask around to see what kind of contribution Zhu Ping'an has made, which made that stupid pig act so rude."

"Miss, you, you can't really..." The personal girl hesitated to speak, but she understood the meaning clearly.

"Hun said, I'm just curious. I was labeled as a licentious man by that stupid pig for no reason. Can't I find out what's going on? I can't be a fool even if I'm a ghost."

Yan Lan's face turned red, she glared hard at the girl next to her, and said slightly angrily.

"Yeah, yes, that's right, what the lady said is true. I mean, it's impossible for the lady to do what he said."

The girl next to her nodded repeatedly, feeling relieved from a big stone in her heart.

"Go quickly." Yan Lan urged.

"Miss, I'll go right away. Don't worry, I have some connections in the front yard. I'll be able to find out about it soon."

The close girl said with confidence.

"Very good." Yan Lan praised, and the girl next to her immediately trotted out of the yard with a look of honor.In the front yard, Yan Shifan, Luo Longwen and others were intensively discussing how to attack Zhu Ping'an's Suzhou victory.

"Check again, did Zhu Ping'an sign the Suzhou Prefecture's victory report? Did he sign it himself?"

Yan Shifan was very thorough and meticulous in doing things, and he was worthy of his self-proclaimed title as one of the three smartest people in the Ming Dynasty.

"Brother Donglou, don't worry. I have confirmed it. I compared it with Zhu Pingan's original memorial and confirmed that it is Zhu Pingan's signature."

Luo Longwen said with certainty that in order to get on Yan Shifan's lap, he had long been familiar with Yan Shifan's work style, had done everything in advance, and had checked Zhu Ping'an's signature in advance.

Yan Shifan gave Luo Longwen an appreciative look, and Luo Longwen suddenly seemed to have picked up the meat bones thrown by his master, with a look of satisfaction and pride on his face.

"Then let's impeach according to the established plan. Of course, we have to show it to my father." Yan Shifan finalized.

"Although the matter this time is big, Zhu Pingan has a name in the Holy Spirit after all. He has also made many meritorious deeds. This time we may not be able to put Zhu Pingan to death." Yan Maoqing touched his chin and continued. , "Perhaps the Holy Spirit will be angry for a moment and arrest him and put him in jail to be punished. But after a few days, the Holy Spirit will be less angry, and he will be released and demoted. Although he doesn't want to admit it, Zhu Ping'an is Jian Zai. The emperor’s heart is different from those of Shen Lian and Yang Jisheng.”

"Indeed, he made a great contribution at the sacrifice to the sea a few days ago, and he also made many contributions before, especially the Taicang bank case. Zhu Pingan investigated and fined so much money, which added a lot of money to the national treasury. At that time, the urgent need of the Holy Emperor was solved. Judging from the history of dealing with people in the past, Zhu Pingan may be injured this time, but it will not be fatal." Another official nodded in agreement.

This is the advantage of Jane being in the emperor's heart. It is more error-free than those ministers who have not had Jane in the emperor's heart.

In fact, this is also human nature.

For a person you know well and know well, you are willing to give him a chance to make a mistake and will not beat him to death with a stick; but for strangers you don't know, after he makes a mistake, you will often beat him to death with a stick and close the coffin. Conclusion.

"Haha, I know all this. Let's talk behind closed doors, even though the Holy One gives people the impression of being ruthless and unrighteous. Back then, the late Emperor Zhengde died without any heirs. At that time, the Empress Dowager Zhang and the Chief Minister of the Cabinet Yang Tinghe followed the "Brother's Death" According to the ancestral system of inheriting the throne of his younger brother and brother, it was decided that the current emperor would succeed him. According to the ancestral system and tradition, the emperor would succeed the throne through a collateral lineage. His imperial father should be Hongzhi Emperor Zhu Youtang, and his biological parents are Xingxian Wang Zhu Youhang and his concubine. The Jiang family could only be demoted to uncles and uncles. However, after the emperor succeeded to the throne, through great ceremonial disputes, he honored his biological parents as Emperor Xingxian and Empress. Later, he honored his father as Emperor Ruizong and worshiped him in the Ancestral Temple, ranking him among the Zhengde Emperors. As for the Empress Dowager Zhang who decided to let him succeed to the throne, she was not even allowed to congratulate the courtiers and married women on her birthday, and finally died of depression. Yang Tinghe, who advocated for him to be the emperor, was dismissed from the official position, and his son Yang Shenzhang was relegated to Yunnan. Abandoning the fate of a lifetime; needless to say what happened to Xia Yan later. Although it was pushed by us, without the Holy Lord’s nod, Xia Yan would not have been abandoned and executed. Think about Xia Yan’s loyalty to the Holy Lord. for many years."

"However, when looking at a problem, we should not just look at the surface, we must also look at the inside. Whether our Holy One is ruthless or unrighteous depends on whether you are useful or not. As long as it is useful, His Majesty will not be unkind and unrighteous. If it is useless, then there is no need to blame His Majesty. ”

Yan Shifan spoke in front of one of his own people and in the most heavily guarded study room in his home, without caring at all.

"Zhu Pingan is still useful at the moment. The Holy One may not kill him, but this is just the beginning. After our impeachment this time, we will wait until the Holy One has dealt with him before continuing to impeach him. As long as he is a person, he will make mistakes. Inside the egg You can still find faults, stare at him, find out his faults, and continue to impeach him, once or twice, he will be useless."

Yan Shifan smiled slightly and said leisurely, "In terms of meritorious service, can Zhu Pingan have as much meritorious service as Zhu Wan, who oversaw the military affairs of Zhejiang and Fujian coastal defenses?! But, what can Zhu Wan do if he works hard and meritoriously? Let's do something about it. Wan has become a dead soul under the sword! What can he do to Zhu Ping'an?!"

"As expected of Brother Donglou, let's do it like this." Luo Longwen was the first to jump out in support.

"That's right, that's right, let's do it this way." Others also expressed their opinions, and a consensus was quickly reached. (End of chapter)
