Xiong Tingbi became the focus of party struggles, so if you want to save him, you must start with party struggles.
Zhu Xu pondered for a while, looked up at Cao Wenzhao, who looked eagerly with great hope, and said, "You get up first."
Cao Wenzhao also saw Zhu Xu's embarrassment, stood up with some fear, still looking expectant and nervous.
Zhu Xu tapped his fingers on the table, and the sound of horse hooves sounded on the table. He said slowly: "Xiong Tingbigen Festival is not about Guangning's defeat, but about the party struggles in the court. If you want to save him, I can do my best, but the Donglin Party has to find a way."
When Cao Wenzhao heard this, he hurriedly said, "I would like to ask your highness for advice."
Zhu Xu thought in his heart, sorted out his thoughts little by little, and said, "I will deal with the eunuch. Although Guangning's defeat is not a genji, it cannot be avoided. The Donglin Party needs to have a reasonable statement in the court to block the mouths of other people and the emperor."
Cao Wenzhao thought seriously and said, "Your Highness, Lord Xiong and Lord Wang are close friends, and there will definitely be a solution."
Zhu Xu nodded slightly, turned around and shouted "Xiao Cao!"
Cao Wenzhao quickly walked in outside and bowed and said, "What are your instructions?"
Zhu Xu said: "You go to the account to pay 40,000 taels of silver and send it to Wei Zhongxian and tell him that the first person I want to protect is Xiong Tingbi!"
Cao Huachun doesn't know the specific situation yet, but if he wants to protect Xiong Tingbi, Wang Huazhen, who is bound to him, may also save him?
He looked up at Zhu Xu and asked, "Your Highness, what should Wang Huazhen do?"
Wang Huazhen is a man who is not worth mercy. Zhu Xu also knew that he and Wei Zhongxian were in a collusion. He looked disgusted and said, "Whatever Wei Zhongxian can do."
Cao Huachun agreed and then left.
Zhu Xu said to Cao Wenzhao again: "You go to Tianzhu again and tell Xiong Tingbi that you have already handled the eunuch, and it's just the Donglin Party."
Cao Wenzhao was overjoyed and said, "I thank you Your Highness, I will make arrangements now."
Zhu Xu nodded, looked at Cao Wenzhao's back, squinted his eyes, and unconsciously raised the corners of his mouth.
He almost forgot about Xiong Tingbi, which is a very good entry into Liaodong!
"I just don't know how the Donglin Party plans to save Xiong Tingbi..." Zhu Xu said to himself. Xiong Tingbi caused the defeat in Liaodong and lost six cities, causing the situation in Liaodong to be corrupt and uncontrollable. Such a crime cannot be blocked by the people of the world without sufficient reasonable reasons.
Not long after, Cao Wenzhao followed Xiong Guangyuan in a vassal costume and went to the Heavenly Prison.
As soon as Cao Wenzhao told the matter, Xiong Tingbi said excitedly, "Wenzhao, what are your words really credible?"
Cao Wenzhao also knew that what he said was too obscure, but he really couldn't reveal too much, so he said, "Don't worry, since Your Highness has agreed to help, Wei Zhongxian must give you this thin face."
Even in prison, Xiong Tingbi had heard of His Highness Hui's title. He knew that he was deeply favored by the emperor and the empress. He felt a little confident when he heard this, and said, "Okay, then I will contact Brother Wang and others immediately. As long as the eunuch party is not in trouble, I will have the possibility of being relieved."
Cao Wenzhao thought about Zhu Xu's words and warned seriously: "Sir, Guangning's defeat requires a sufficient reason to block everyone's mouth. Sir, you must not be careless."
Xiong Tingbi looked angry when he heard this, gritted his teeth and said, "I know, but when I go out, I will never let that villain Wang Huazhen go!"
Cao Wenzhao naturally understood that when two people were arrested, they would not meet and shirk their responsibilities, and they did not dare to take too much. He said calmly: "Sir, you have done all your subordinates. Next, it depends on your lord."
Xiong Tingbi grabbed the railing with both hands, his face moved and said, "Okay, Wenzhao, if Xiong is released, you will be my savior. I will never dare to forget such kindness, and I will definitely thank you very much!"
Cao Wenzhao hurriedly said, "Sir, don't misunderstand it. The idea was paid by His Highness King Hui, and the money was also paid by His Highness. My subordinates are just running errands."
Xiong Tingbi looked clear and said, "Okay, don't worry, after I go out, I will definitely pay homage to His Highness Hui and thank you for your life-saving."
Cao Wenzhao then breathed a sigh of relief, and then hurriedly left.
Xiong Guangyuan did not leave. He walked closer and looked at Xiong Tingbi with a little doubt, "Father, is what General Cao said really credible?"
Xiong Tingbi has been imprisoned for a long time and is a little unfamiliar with the outside world. He looks solemn and thinks, and said decisively for a long time: "Wenzhao has followed me for many years, and I value love and friendship. I can trust him!"
Xiong Guangyuan took a deep breath and said with his chest straight: "Yes, father, what should that child do?"
Xiong Tingbi had already made a draft and said, "If you go to see Lord Wang, just say that I have settled the eunuch. Just ask him to find a sufficient reason in the court and block the mouth in the court."
In Xiong Tingbi's opinion, the emperor was still too young, far inferior to Emperor Wanli, and was not their opponent. As long as he had a wide range of words in the court, he could only agree.
Xiong Guangyuan listened to Xiong Tingbi's words and said, "It's my father, I'll go find Lord Wang now."
Wei Zhongxian, who was in the East Factory, also received the news soon.
Yang Lian and others have not impeached Wei Zhongxian yet, and Wei Zhongxian has not had too many resentments towards Xiong Tingbi and others at this moment. When he heard the message from His Highness Hui, he sat there with a faint expression and a cold look.
A stubborn head stood in front of him, holding a stack of silver notes in his hand, and said excitedly, "Governor, 40,000 taels, this is really generous in His Royal Highness Hui's move."
Wei Zhongxian looked at him, smiled, and then frowned and said, "You send the silver into the palace immediately and let Liu Chao take him to see His Highness Hui, and then said, I will obey His Highness's order."
The head was stunned and stepped forward and said in confusion: "Governor, do you really have to go back this money? This is why he begged us..."
Wei Zhongxian looked at him coldly, and the leader's eyes tightened and said hurriedly: "It's the governor, let's do it now."
"Wait!" Wei Zhongxian said lightly the moment he turned around.
The first time he turned his head, clasped his fists and said, "What else do you have to do with the governor?"
Wei Zhongxian looked silent and said for a long time, "Go and tell Jiang Yanshan that I will supply him with the money and tell him not to pursue it anymore. The emperor will say something nice to Xiong Tingbi."
Jiang Yanshan is the eunuch who bribed Wang Wenyan.
When the head heard this, he said, "Yes."
Wei Zhongxian waved his hand and said, "Go."
When the stubborn left, Wei Zhongxian stood on the high hall with his hands behind his back, with a cold and arrogant look in his eyes, and said word by word: "There are nineteen more!"
With the Donglin Party and the Eunuch Party taking action at the same time, the Xiong Tingbi case, which had become a taboo in the court and no one was willing to mention it more, has once again become the focus.
This time, Wang Wenyan was connected, and the voices in the court were almost unified.
