Chapter seven hundred and ninety fourth spearhead
When Fu Tao heard this, he looked up at Fu Changzong and said, "Father, why are you here to do so late?"
Fu Changzong put down the teapot and said lightly: "Old Bi Ge has always hoped that the ruling yard will be stable. If someone wants me to get rid of the horse, Old Bi Ge will not agree. Now someone should hope that Old Bi Ge will take action to touch me..."
Fu Tao understood that although the current court situation was a little uneasy, it was a whole. No one wanted to see a major change happening when everyone was determined to promote the "New Policy".
The Ministry of Revenue or his father is an extremely important part of promoting the "New Deal". If he falls, the involvement will be too great and will be enough to shake the world. Bi Ziyan should not want to see such a situation happen.
Fu Changzong sorted out his clothes and said, "You go and rest, remember what I said."
"Yes." Fu Tao stood up and responded, looking a little worried.
Fu Changzong came to the living room in his regular clothes and raised his hand to Bi Ziyan and said, "Old Ge, you should come to my house at least. It's really awesome."
Bi Ziyan smiled seriously and said, "I came late at night, and I had to talk to Lord Fu about some things."
Fu Changzong signaled him to sit down, and the two of them drank a cup of tea. Then Fu Changzong said, "Please speak with Master Bi Ge."
Although the two have been colleagues for many years, they are not familiar with each other for various reasons. This is the first time such a conversation.
Bi Ziyan did not have a puzzle with Fu Changzong, and directly handed several letters of complaint to Fu Changzong and said, "Mr. Fu, please give me an explanation."
Fu Changzong glanced at Bi Ziyan, took it, took out the letter, and slowly looked.
From beginning to end, his expression did not change much. Huitong Trading Bank was closely related to the Ministry of Revenue, and he knew a lot of things in it.
For example, these disappeared silver did not disappear out of thin air, but entered the treasury, then went to the Military Weapon Bureau, Jinyiwei, etc. Some were before the emperor ascended the throne, and some were after the throne. Due to some relationships not being straightened out, the silver kept flowing like this, which was a secret for the outside world.
As for the so-called shameful businesses, including mining, brothels, private salt, etc., some are left over from the previous dynasty, and some are sold to outside the customs at high prices, which cannot be obtained from the table.
After reading it, Fu Changzong put down the letters, pondered and said, "Old Bi Ge should know that Huitong Trading Company is the emperor's property. Instead of coming to ask me, it is better to ask the emperor."
Bi Ziyan's face changed slightly and he said, "You mean, these emperors know?"
Fu Changzong smiled and said, "What the emperor knows is clearer than the lower officials."
Bi Ziyan examined Fu Changzong's expression, nodded after a while, without saying anything.
If these things were not done by Fu Changzong in private, it was obviously the emperor who had other purposes. In other words, these people seemed to be attacking Fu Changzong, but the one who was really attacking was the emperor!
Bi Ziyan breathed a sigh of relief, that in this way, Fu Changzong would not fall. Then, before the emperor came back, he had to settle these things, completely eliminate these little ones, and stabilize the situation!
Bi Ziyan's eyes flashed, and a violent aura flashed, saying, "Does Lord Fu know, who did these letters come up with?"
Fu Changzong shook his head directly and said, "Huitong Trading Company is too large and complicated, and anyone can do it."
Bi Ziyan looked at his expression, frowned, and said, "Mr. Fu doesn't seem to be worried. Could there be any countermeasures?"
Fu Changzong looked at himself freely and said, "No."
It is also a lie to say that he has been the Minister of Revenue for many years. How could he have no energy at all? He just can't speak clearly with Bi Ziyan.
Bi Ziyan was not stupid either. He saw clearly and said directly: "I plan to convene the cabinet and six ministries tomorrow to purify the court. What do you think about Shangshu Fu?"
Fu Changzong's eyes moved slightly and looked at Bi Ziyan with some surprise.
This person has always been diligent and devoted himself to the "New Policy". Now it seems that he is about to show his strength.
He had no objection and said, "Gei Master Bi wants to do it, so the lower officials will cooperate naturally."
Bi Ziyan glanced at him, nodded, got up and walked out.
The "New Deal" is the only way to revitalize the Ming Dynasty. He does not allow anyone to destroy it! Whether they are aiming at the cabinet assistant or in order to overturn the case for Donglin, Bi Ziyan decided not to tolerate it anymore!
Fu Changzong looked at Bi Ziyan's back and laughed unconsciously, sighing softly: "It's okay for these people to force honest people to this end."
In fact, whether it is the Ministry of Revenue or Huitong Trading Bank, the internal management is extremely strict. It is easy to find out who did it when you see these information, but even if you don’t look for it, everyone knows what is about to happen.
The source of these storms is to add cabinet assistants. Even if there is no Huitong Trading Company, they can find out other things.
Bi Ziyan left Fu's mansion and did not return to the mansion, but moved to Sun Chengzong's mansion.
Sun Chengzong had already slept, but hurriedly got up again, looking at Bi Ziyan and said, "It's so late, what happened?"
Bi Ziyan handed over several letters and said, "Some people need to stop them if they want to be in chaos."
Sun Chengzong took it over and looked at it for a few times, frowned and said, "Someone wants to touch Fu Changzong? Why is this?" The cabinet minister wanted to add six, but he shouldn't have attacked Fu Changzong no matter how he said that. He was the most stable one.
"I'm afraid someone is interested in Huitong Trading Company or the Royal Money House." Bi Ziyan said.
Sun Chengzong looked at a few more letters, probably knew the profits in his heart, and pondered: "What are you going to do?" No matter whether it is Fu Changzong, Huitong Trading Company or the Royal Money House, there must be no accident. This is the consensus of them and even the entire court.
Bi Ziyan looked up at Sun Chengzong and said, "I plan to strictly govern the officials and make the cabinet ministers as soon as possible, and at the same time, reopen, appoint, and dispatch officials to carry out stricter control, completely dispel some people's ambitions!"
Sun Chengzong looked at Bi Ziyan and said, "This matter must be coordinated by the Ministry of Justice, the Ministry of Personnel, and the Governor General. Are you sure to convince them?"
The Six Ministry now has the greatest power, and the cabinet cannot be inserted into it. If you want to do things, you must nod to do it.
Bi Ziyan said: "This is also the reason why I look for you. Zhang Wenda, you go around and I go to see King Jing. Zhou Yingqiu should not be difficult. He has also impeached a lot recently."
Sun Chengzong thought for a while and shook his head, "Without the emperor's nod, these people probably wouldn't agree."
What Bi Ziyan had to do was to be the remnants of Donglin. Zhang Wenda might not agree. King Jing and Zhou Yingqiu were the emperor's confidants. For such a big thing, without the emperor's instructions, they would not accept the cabinet without authorization. This is equivalent to their power handing over to the cabinet, and they would definitely not be willing.
"You have to try it. You can't watch the situation be ruined. If it is not resolved before the emperor comes back, I'm afraid the storm will be even bigger!" Bi Zi said seriously.
"Yes." Sun Chengzong nodded, adding the auxiliary ministers, he did not expect such a big storm to cause. If Fu Changzong was dragged down by them, according to the emperor's temper, it would not be a storm, but a storm!
Apart from them, in the dark, there are no wonder how many people are shading, and their shadows are lengthening and shortening.
In the east of the capital city, in a house.
This was originally the house of a minister of the previous dynasty, but now it was bought by Wang Ji's nephew, and they all lived here temporarily.
Wang Ji was sixty-seven years old this year, coughing constantly, wearing a thick cotton coat, and there were two people in front of him.
One is the Tongzheng envoy, Wu Kewei, the other is the Taoist priest.
Wu Kewei is a middle-aged man with a calm expression and a smile on his face. He looked at Wang Ji and said, "The verdict of Mr. Zhao, Lord Gao and others has been concluded. The verdict is 'forming a party's privacy, cultivating private individuals, abusing power and harming the country, and being loyal and filial to the country', and being completely determined."
Wang Ji listened, his face was complicated and his eyes were silent.
He, Zhao Nanxing, Gao Panlong and others were all admitted to the imperial examinations ten years after Wanli. They experienced the most severe party struggles in the Ming Dynasty. In and outside the palace, countless winds and rains, and their hearts were as bright as the scorching sun, but they did not expect that in the end they ended up like this!
