Please ask me to be the emperor

Chapter 1509 Pigs and Dogs

When Feng Quan, led by Geng Zhongming, met "King Shun", "King Shun" Zhang Shun was choosing a wife with several other wives.

"Your Highness!" Geng Zhongming met Zhang Shun without squinting, and then explained his purpose.

"Oh? Have you ever been a pavilion elder?" Zhang Shun looked at Feng Quan and couldn't help but said with a surprised look on his face, "So young?"

In the Ming Dynasty, those who could reach the position of cabinet were generally not in their seventies or eighties, but that was about the same.

For example, Zhang Zhifa is already sixty-four, and Huang Shijun is sixty-seven. Even the protagonist's younger and more powerful Zhang Shenyan has already reached the threshold of sixty.

And how old is Feng Quancai in front of him? Only in his early forties!

Considering that this guy was once "never used" by Chongzhen, but now he is only nine years old, which means that he was at least thirty years old and was listed in the cabinet. Isn't this too outrageous?

"Hehe... that... that little guy is a little bit talented..." Feng Quan couldn't help but say to himself.

"..." I've seen people who brag, but I've never seen anyone who dares to brag like this.

"Sure, let's stay first..." Zhang Shun nodded and was about to agree.

"Ahem..." Zhang Yan and Queen Zhang, who were dressed in men's clothing, coughed twice suddenly.

"...Stay, look back and see if there is a suitable position, and then take advantage of it!" Zhang Shun finished speaking without changing his expression.

"Ah? Thank you for your grace, your highness. Thank you for your grace. If it is convenient, I would like to meet you one-on-one!" Feng Quan couldn't help but be overjoyed when he heard this. He quickly kowtowed to Zhang Shun three times and bowed nine times, his expression extremely flattering.

I can’t tell that this man has a majestic appearance and this hand!

Zhang Shun shook his head secretly, but he didn't say anything because he could support all kinds of people with the same amount of money.

Then he comforted and encouraged the two of them, and they left with a lot of thanks. It was only at this time that Zhang Yan explained: "Your Highness is unaware of something. This person is a famous 'eunuch' with a great reputation." His stench is unparalleled in the world."

"As the saying goes: 'The man's cock crows and the dog robbers come out of the door. This is why this man did not come."

"If this person is really reused, I'm afraid His Highness will lose the hope of the world!"

"You know how wise the Queen is!" Zhang Shun listened to her seriousness and couldn't help but stretched out his finger to scratch her nose.

It turns out that Queen Zhang Yanzhang is not only a famous beautiful queen, but also a famous wise queen.

Compared with Empress Zhou Yufeng, who has "skin as jade and a special color", Zhang Yan has "sleek and plump face, face like Guanyin, eyes like autumn waves, mouth like vermilion cherry blossoms, nose like hanging gallbladder, white teeth and fine teeth" Queen Zhang is obviously more beautiful and majestic.

Ever since Zhang Shun came to the capital, he has always been obsessed with their bodies, but he didn't expect her to have such insight.

"Your Highness!" Zhang Yan's face turned red after hearing Zhang Shun's three-part ridicule and seven-part praise.

She couldn't help but screamed in a little daughter-like manner, so much so that Zhang Shun's bones almost went numb.

This goblin!

Zhang Shun quickly calmed down and then said with a smile: "In that case, can Feng Quan still join the cabinet?"

"Your Highness is unaware that Feng Quan was originally a Jinshi during the Wanli period. He was nineteen years old and was selected as a scholar of the Hanlin Academy. He was known as 'Little Feng Hanlin'." Zhang Yan couldn't help but explain.

"Only because his father was impeached and lost his official position, he took refuge in the 'Wei Eunuch' and was willing to be his lackey. He persecuted the Donglin Party members and killed Zhongliang, so he was promoted to the position of assistant minister of the cabinet."

"Just because he was popular and too corrupt, he was jealous of Cui Chengxiu, the leader of the Five Tigers of the Eunuch Party, so he was dismissed from office."

"The time. It was the time when Tianqi died, Chongzhen came to the throne, and the "eunuchs" were eliminated. Feng Quan was a blessing in disguise and was saved."

"Oh?" What kind of person is Zhang Shun now? He only heard a few words from Zhang Yan, and suddenly felt that Zhang Yan's words were a bit evasive.

It turns out that there were several unwritten rules about the cabinet of the Ming Dynasty: one is that "non-Jinshi will not enter the Hanlin, and non-Hanlin will not join the cabinet." The other is that cabinet ministers will enter the cabinet. The cabinet and the Ministry of Personnel only have the right to recommend but not decide.

In other words, no matter whether Feng Quan defected to the "Eunuch Party" or the "Donglin Party", he must get the nod of the then emperor Tianqi if he wanted to join the cabinet.

He couldn't help but ask: "Feng Quan is young and promising, and he has joined the Hanlin Academy and has a bright future. Why does he hate the Donglin Party and join the Eunuch Party?"

"This" Zhang Yan blushed when she heard this, lowered her head and explained in a low voice, "According to reports, Feng Quan is 'young and beautiful, and his colleagues in the same house are quite flirtatious, and Donglin Party member Zuo Yude and Mou Changqi are especially flirtatious.' This is .To make enemies."

Although Zhang Yan didn't quite understand why Feng Quan was also a man and why Miao Changqi was so "sexual", she finally understood that this was not a good word.

When Zhang Shun heard this, his face suddenly became very exciting, and he felt that his outlook on life was completely ruined.

People often say, "A gentleman is open-minded, but a villain hides his complaints." This is just a ridicule from netizens in Zhang Shun's previous life.

He never expected that in the Ming Dynasty, the gentlemen of the Donglin Party would actually practice it!

Thinking of this, Zhang Shun couldn't help but shook his head and said: "My king employs people according to any standard, but I select people based on their talent and reject them based on their virtue!"

"As the king's staff, the female bachelor only needs to serve carefully and does not need to worry too much about scheming."

It turns out that since Tianqi ascended the throne, he favored his wet nurse Hakka at home, and favored the "eunuch" Wei Zhongxian outside, and granted marriage to the two. They joined forces with both internal and external forces to dominate the government and the public.

On that day, Zhu Youxiao not only favored the Hakka family, but also usurped the queen's authority and entrusted all matters in the palace to her.

In this case, whether Zhang Yan is willing or not, she will become a thorn in the side of the "Eunuch Party" and naturally become a natural ally of the Donglin Party.

Therefore, her attitude is naturally inclined towards the Donglin Party, which is not incomprehensible.

However, Zhang Shun could understand, but that didn't mean he could accept it, so he nodded to her.

"I" Zhang Yan's face flushed with shame upon hearing this, and she had nothing to say for a moment.

"Hey, why are you like this? People kindly reminded you, but you reprimanded them in return. It's really a dog bite. Ahem." Na Tian Xiuying was appraising antiques there. Seeing that Zhang Shun seemed a little unhappy, she couldn't help but come over to help. road.

"This is for her own good! Collusion between internal and external parties is a taboo for the emperor!" Zhang Shun sneered, "Let's talk about the ugly things first. Don't wait for me to fall out and regret it later!"

"Hey, calm down, calm down, that's all in the past." Tian Xiuying couldn't help but feel a thump in her heart when she heard this, and she quickly greeted him with a smile.

"Now that we are all prisoners, even if we want to, there will be people who will fawn over us?"

In fact, where are the boundaries in power struggles?

Neither Zhang Shun nor Tian Xiuying knew that in the original history, Zhou Yanru, the chief minister of the cabinet, also flattered Concubine Tian in order to come back and let her have a pillow.

Seeing that the beating was almost done, Zhang Shun smiled and said: "Okay, I'm not the one today. I wonder what the harvest will be like this time?"

"Ha, Your Highness, we are rich!" Once she talked about the harvest, Na Tian Xiuying couldn't help but get excited.

"There are thirty-three people with second-class qualifications, and all of them are virgins. They are all good bookkeepers. With their addition, the settlement will be much faster."

"Today, only the Duke's residence has been found, including one mansion, one garden, eight houses, 73 large and small shops, 137 farms, and 751,322 gold and silver. Two and three cents and six cents, jewelry, jewels and curios, calligraphy and paintings worth about three million taels, one thousand three hundred and sixty-five slaves, servants, and prostitutes, and sixty-three female dependents."

"Ahem. Can we forget about the female relatives?" Zhang Shun couldn't help but said in embarrassment.

It turned out that after Li Zicheng and others seized the residences of some of the emperor's relatives, Zhang Shun was worried that someone would take advantage of them, and he was unable to count them and then register them.

At this time, Tian Xiuying, who was born as a merchant, couldn't help but take the initiative to ask Ying: "If Your Highness can trust the slave family, the slave family can help your majesty."

Zhang Shun was puzzled and couldn't help but ask: "How can you help me?"

Na Tian Xiuying couldn't help but laugh and said: "Every wealthy family has its own account books and has a dedicated person in charge of them. This is one of them."

"Secondly, these aristocratic families mostly buy and breed 'thin horses'. Your Highness only needs to pick out those second-class qualifications, specially used for accounting and management, to help me, and the inventory will be clear."

Zhang Shun saw that what she said was clear and logical, so he asked them to come dressed in men's clothes, and this was the beginning of the scene.

Everything was fine, but there was one incident that gave Zhang Shun a big headache.

It turned out that Concubine Tian was very upset about the "killing" of her son by the nobles headed by Cheng Guogong, and she repeatedly requested that these female relatives be brought into the palace and left to her own disposal.

How dare Zhang Shun answer her?

He just promised: "Xiuying, please keep your heart in your heart. I will definitely betroth them to people like pigs and dogs, so that you can relieve your anger!"

You didn't expect it, there is another update today, hehe. No way, my mind is a bit confused, the author will go to sleep first
