Chapter 200
On September 15, the Shuntian Prefecture Provincial Examination was released, and Han Sheng unexpectedly ranked on the list of olympics. Since then, he has become a juren and was able to hold a civil service in the officialdom of the Ming Dynasty.
It was at this time that Emperor Chongzhen in the palace finally sent an order to summon Han Sheng to the palace to meet and inquire about the affairs of the rivers and lakes.
Perhaps Han Sheng's official position was too low, Chongzhen did not summon him in the Ganqing Palace, but started chatting casually in the garden of the back garden of Kunning Palace:
"I heard that my dear friend had been in seclusion a few days ago. I think I should have gained something after these times, right?"
Taking into account Chongzhen's words, Han Sheng said respectfully:
"I have no strengths and can only gain a foothold by relying on my martial arts."
"It is the duty of a mere minister to practice martial arts diligently!"
Nodded slightly, Emperor Chongzhen was extremely satisfied with the fact that Han Sheng was not arrogant or impatient after he made contributions, but instead went to seclusion and practiced hard, and did not make friends with court officials at all, and said:
"It's good to be a good job!"
"If you can keep your duty, you won't worry about doing something wrong."
"Wei Zhongxian did not keep his duty, so he became a traitor."
"I hope you keep this in mind and don't make mistakes!"
After warning Han Sheng a few words, Emperor Chongzhen said again:
"Have you told you about the purpose of summoning you to the palace?"
"Since the founding of this dynasty, the forces in the world have been growing."
"The Dongchang and the Jinyiwei have not been able to deal with the world over the years. I want to unify their strength in the world and lead them to you."
"I hope you live up to your responsibilities and complete this important task!"
He directly ordered Han Sheng to summon him.
Without any surprise, after hearing this task, Han Sheng immediately knelt on one knee and expressed his loyalty to Chongzhen. Then he asked carefully:
"I wonder what the name of this institution is?"
"What kind of official position is the Weichen?
Hearing this, Emperor Chongzhen was a little silent. After a while, he said to Han Sheng:
"Since it is a matter in the world, then follow the rules in the world."
"Your position is not considered an official position in the court!"
"Ah!" He almost exclaimed. Han Sheng did not expect that Emperor Chongzhen had no intention of setting up an institution at all, but asked him to lead the forces of the Dongchang and Jinyiwei in the martial arts world according to the rules in the martial arts world.
Thinking of those people in the martial arts world who joined the Dongchang for the sake of the imperial position and the Jinyiwei, Han Sheng smiled bitterly in his heart, knowing that Emperor Chongzhen would completely throw a huge problem to him.
However, the more this happens, the less the emperor and the court have interfered with this institution. So Han Sheng did not argue about this matter, but suddenly mentioned an irrelevant thing:
"Your Majesty may know that I have learned arts in the Vajra Sect."
"Just a few days ago, Master God of the Vajra Gate asked Weichen to lift the ban on sending arms to the Vajra Gate."
"If there is no official position, I really don't know how to solve this problem!"
Tell Chongzhen about the rise of the Yarkand Khanate in the Western Regions and the possibility of attacking the Vajra Sect.
When Emperor Chongzhen heard about this for some reason, although for some reason, he had fully understood the significance of the barrier of the Vajra Gate to the northwest of the Ming Dynasty. So he frowned and said:
"The safety of the border is important, and I will immediately issue an order to lift the ban on the Vajra Gate."
"If you encounter these things again in the future..."
After pondering for a while, Emperor Chongzhen knew that Han Sheng was impossible to see him often, so he could only say to him:
"You can contact the Sili Supervisor Cao Huachun, and he will tell me!"
As he said this, Emperor Chongzhen felt that he had embarked on the old path of Dongchang and Jinyiwei. He frowned for a moment, and was very worried about it.
When Han Sheng saw this scene, he heard him whispering to Dongchang and Jinyiwei, and had already guessed what the emperor was worried about. Seeing that the opportunity was rare, he immediately spoke to Emperor Chongzhen:
"Your Majesty is worried about the factory guards, so there is no need to do so!"
"The factory guards exist to carry out His Majesty's wishes. If His Majesty feels that the factory guards are not easy now, they will be replaced."
"I think that although there are many remnants of the eunuch party among the factory guards, more are those who are loyal to His Majesty."
"Your Majesty must not be sought by others because of some remnants of the eunuch party, and abandon the East Factory and the Jinyiwei!"
"Rareless!" When Han Sheng talked about the central matter, Emperor Chongzhen angrily scolded him, without changing his mind at all, and said:
"The factory guards are notorious, and the people in the world are very disgusted with them. Since I want to be a wise ruler, I must abandon the Dongchang and the Jinyiwei."
"What kind of virtue do you have? I will discuss the major policies of the court!"
I feel extremely dissatisfied with Han Sheng's random intervention in political affairs.
There was no panic in his heart. Han Sheng was not very concerned about whether Chongzhen was angry. However, he was frightened and treacherous. After accusing Emperor Chongzhen of guilt, he presented a spirit bead and said:
"Your Majesty, this is the spiritual bead left by Wang Tiqian. It contains all kinds of memories left by Wang Tiqian over the years."
"I have discovered some things in it and dare not hide them from Your Majesty. I hope Your Majesty will be able to see you and recognize the right and wrong of loyalty and treacherous."
"Wang Tiqian's memory?" His eyebrows were slightly relaxed. Emperor Chongzhen already knew the preciousness of this spiritual spirit bead. Not only did Wang Tiqian achieve great martial arts skills, he also worked as a eunuch in the palace for several years. Before he turned against the river, he was always Wei Zhongxian's first confidant.
With his memory, Emperor Chongzhen not only was able to convict Wei Zhongxian more accurately, but he even had a deeper understanding of the people in the palace.
So, after putting away the spirit beads, he asked Han Sheng again:
"Have you seen Wang Tiqian's memory?"
“What are you getting from it?”
He didn't dare to say the secrets of the palace that he learned from Wang Tiqian's memory, and Han Sheng said to Emperor Chongzhen:
"I am focused on martial arts and did not check it carefully."
"But there is one thing, perhaps it was Wei Zhongxian's purpose of leaving this spiritual bead."
"Please check it out so that you can avoid being harmed by others!"
Let Chongzhen check the memory of Wang Tiqian's spiritual beads by himself, and he dare not say another word.
He knew that this incident would definitely change Chongzhen's view of the Donglin Party, and that the survival of the Dongchang and the Jinyiwei would be counted on these.
"Without the Dongchang and the Jinyiwei, what I will do in the future will inevitably become a target for court officials."
"And the power that can be mobilized is far less than that of Dongchang and Jinyiwei."
"I hope Your Majesty can recognize the true face of the Donglin Party, so as not to be deceived and abandon the Dongchang and the Jinyiwei!"
