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

Ma Shiying was helpless, he didn't expect that Zhang Gui would threaten the civil servants and generals of the Ming Dynasty with the words "if he is not made king, he will go farther".

Ma Shiying had no choice but to follow Zhang Gui's instructions to write Zhang Gui's impeachment of Liu Tingyuan and the memorial to Lushun for the county king Xianjue Shizhen.

Many bureaucrats in Ming Dynasty really hoped to get ahead through connections.

After all, if you get promotion opportunities based on the assessment of seniority, ability, merit, and integrity, the time cost will be too high, and it will also make many egoists who only want power but not fulfill their responsibilities, as well as mediocre abilities but willing to work hard for themselves It is difficult for incompetent officials who make money to be promoted to high positions through normal channels.

And in the bureaucratic system, such bastards make up the majority.

There is no way.

It's human nature to prefer shortcuts.

As Ma Shiying said, no matter what, there are still many villains in the world.

Coupled with the influence of Confucian culture for thousands of years, it does not pay attention to rules and pays more attention to human feelings, and even thinks that relatives and relatives are praiseworthy behaviors. It has long been ingrained and difficult to change.

This also makes many people talk about benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom and trust, but they are full of how to go heresy.

Therefore, the bureaucratic groups of Ming Dynasty really need a dictator.

In this way, they only need to try their best to please this person who can decide everything in the world, and then they can get promoted by pleasing and flattering this person, and then obtain more benefits that are not worthy of their own talents and virtues. able to hide their own incompetence.

But now, His Majesty the Emperor who really rules everything in the world, and who can be flattered by them, stays at home, and does not give them a chance to make progress by flattering them.

Instead, he could only choose to replace Zhang Gui, who was able to dominate everything in the world and just made great achievements.

Therefore, the bureaucrats of Ming Dynasty actually need Zhang Gui very much now.

It's like the bureaucrats of the Ming Dynasty needed Wei Zhongxian very much in history.

Because of this, Liu Tingyuan, as one of the bureaucrats who wanted to take a shortcut to progress, took the initiative to build a living temple for Zhang Gui.

But Zhang Gui didn't appreciate it in the end.

Having studied history and knowing that the political rules of this world are not the only way to play, he chose to refuse, refusing to be dragged down by the bureaucrats, but chose to retreat as an advance. He pushed forward to be the second Yan Song's apocalypse to compromise with him.

Zhang Gui didn't intend to really work for the old Zhu's family for the rest of his life, and then he would be killed by the people of the old Zhu's family.

Zhang Gui also knows that in the face of power struggles, any relationship is unreliable.

Therefore, Zhang Gui simply went south and went to Lushun.

There is a navy stationed there by his absolute confidant Xichang official Huang Binqing. Most of the navy's backbone is from his family background, so he can go to other places at any time.

It can be said that as long as Zhang Gui arrives in Lushun, he can become a great pirate at the same scale as Zheng Zhilong at any time.

This is also the difference between Zhang Gui and the traditional power ministers in Chinese history.

In the history of China, the traditional power ministers were limited by the times, and they only had the consciousness of the mainland, thinking that the world was only China, and other places were barbaric lands.

But Zhang Gui, as a traveler, has the awareness of the ocean, and knows that besides the land, there is also the ocean that can be used as a foothold for his prosperous life.

However, because of this, when the news that Zhang Gui did not return to the court immediately after the victory but went to Lushun, it immediately caused an uproar.

People in this era don't understand why Uncle Zhang Guo called himself sick and went to the seaside when he was most proud, instead of coming to the capital to accept the congratulations of the officials and enjoy the great glory.

The first one who didn't understand was Ma Shiying.

And the second one who didn't understand was Liu Tingyuan.

Liu Tingyuan really didn't expect that he would be dismissed and questioned because he built a shrine for his uncle Zhang Gui.

Zhang Gui has the right to kill first and play later.

Therefore, before Zhang Gui's memorial to impeach Liu Tingyuan was delivered to Beijing and was approved as popular, Jinyiwei in Liaodong had already obtained Zhang Gui's order to control Liu Tingyuan.

"I want to see the grand master! I want to see the grand master!"

Therefore, Liu Tingyuan had to shout when he was arrested by Jin Yiwei again. He really wanted to ask Zhang Gui, why he didn't appreciate it!

...

"Absurd! The rewards are decided by the imperial court. How could Uncle Zhang Guo mention the award himself? Is this threatening the imperial court?!"

Liu Hongxun, who had just joined the cabinet, also didn't understand at this time, so he complained in the cabinet.

Cheng Jiming, who was also newly added to the cabinet, also sneered: "This is not threatening the court, this is contempt for the court!"

"Just waiting for him to return to Beijing after the victory of Duke Zhang Guojiu, and then to present the captives and report to the late emperor's mausoleum and Taimiao. In the end, the grand master only sent Sun Butang and Zhou Zongli to lead an army back to Beijing." Beijing, but he led his soldiers and servants to Lushun to recuperate from his illness, and he also set a reward for his meritorious service this time, and wanted to be crowned king."

"How can a famous imperial treasure be destroyed! Calling a king with a different surname is only possible for the founding of the country. The key is to posthumously. If there is anyone who is not a clan, he will be named a king!"

"What the two old elders said is very true, the court etiquette cannot be broken! And even if you want to be crowned king, you should ask for the crown after returning to Beijing. How can you invite the award before you return to Beijing? Behavior."

Qian Xiangkun, Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites, also followed suit.

"Please show Yuanfu the decree to return to Beijing as soon as possible, please do not approve."

Liu Hongxun said something at this time.

Wen Tiren, the new chief assistant, went to the Planning Department after receiving Liu Hongxun's memorandum and ticket draft, found Wei Zhongxian, and said to Wei Zhongxian, "I would like to ask Nine Thousand Years to give it to Your Majesty according to this ticket."

Wei Zhongxian glanced at the ticket: "No?"

As Wei Zhongxian spoke, he asked Wen Tiren: "If Your Majesty agrees, will Uncle Guo be dissatisfied with it?"

"I don't know if Uncle Guo is playing sex on purpose. It's better not to agree to try it first. In any case, if he doesn't return to Beijing now, he has disrupted the arrangements of the big guys."

"It was supposed to be a great victory, and we were all waiting for his outstanding uncle of the country to return to Beijing, so that the whole world can celebrate together, but he didn't come to Beijing. How can the rich gifts prepared by the rich and bureaucrats in the capital be given? Where can Che flattery go?"

"In addition, he also refused to be built a shrine, so many officials can't use this way of flattering him to enrich themselves, what should I do?"

"Is it possible that you really want to invite His Majesty out, and then say that this great achievement is the result of His Majesty's planning? But the key is that the only one who can invite His Majesty is the uncle of another country!"

He said warmly and benevolently.

Wei Zhongxian nodded: "That's right! The test results are about to begin, and all the officials in the world are waiting for his uncle to come to Beijing to give everyone a reassurance, but the uncle refused to show up. Caught off guard."

After speaking, Wei Zhongxian said: "Our family will go and hand over the draft and memorial to the emperor."

"Who let you in! Don't bother me! Didn't I say long ago that Zhang Qing can't enter at will?!"

As soon as Wei Zhongxian entered Tianqi's laboratory, he was blasted out by Tianqi.

Wei Zhongxian had no choice but to report hurriedly: "The emperor calm down! The slaves didn't dare to come in, but the uncle Guo's memorial has arrived, and the cabinet has already drafted, just waiting for your approval."

"Zhang Qing's memorial?"

After Tian Qi heard it, he took the memorial, and after a glance, he laughed: "It's him!"

Wei Zhongxian then asked: "Your Majesty, what is the proposal for the cabinet?"

"Critical red! Let him go back to Beijing first."
