Chapter 1484: Trickster

After Yang Tinghe said that, he looked at Ye Chunqiu with a faint smile.

At this glance, Ye Chunqiu caught it, and even read the meaning of provocation.

I don’t know if Ye Chunqiu is really not afraid or if it doesn’t matter. Yang Tinghe only saw Ye Chunqiu’s calm and composed face.

Zhu Houzhao pondered for a moment, thinking that what Yang Tinghe said seemed to make sense. He didn't like being deceived, and even more hates that someone secretly robbed his money.

What's more, if there are really people in Zhenguo Mansion who are corrupt, wouldn't this also cheat his good brother Ye Chunqiu?

Zhu Houzhao did not respond directly to Yang Tinghe, but smiled unanimously, left the tribute court, and got into the car.

"Chongqiu, will you still follow me back to the palace?"

When he opened the car window, Zhu Houzhao poked his head out and asked Ye Chunqiu who was still standing outside.

Ye Chunqiu shook his head and said, "Your Majesty, it's still early. If there is nothing special, I won't go."

Zhu Houzhao nodded and then set off with a large group of troops to return to the palace.

Ye Chunqiu went home alone and found out that there were guests at home, and Tang Bohu was in the hall.

When Ye Chunqiu rushed over, the person sitting here got up and said, "Chunqiu, come."

The person who came was Deng Jian, and now he has become the envoy of Tongzheng. However, there has been news that he may be promoted again.

It is said that there has been a rumor in the cabinet that Deng Jian intends to be the Right Chief Inspector. The Right Chief Inspector is already the second-ranked figure in the Censorate. It can be said that he has risen to the top and his future is limitless. With this qualification alone, ten years later, it is definitely a ministry and even an entry into the cabinet.

Ye Chunqiu knew very well why such an appointment was made. The news from the Ministry of Personnel was that this was what Mr. Li said. Mr. Li had already hinted that the Ministry of Personnel had begun to follow the procedures.

It's strange. Whenever an official is promoted, the censors will blame you like crazy, because after all, there are only one position, but there are many qualified people. In order to exclude opponents, there are many open and secret arrows, and you even walk on the street and eat a sesame cake. If a censor impeaches you, it is not a crime, but once you are impeached and finally decide on the candidate, you will be excluded.

But no one impeached Deng Jian. He could be said to have returned to the Censorate with his eyes closed and promoted.

Ye Chunqiu was just speculating that the reason why Li Dongyang was like this was mostly because of the royal family. If he wanted to force the royal family to submit, he had to have a sharp blade, and some people would not be afraid of being retaliated against in the future and dared to offend others.

Obviously, Deng Jian is the magic weapon in Li Dongyang's heart. No one in the capital knows Deng Jian's skills. Whoever you catches and scolds him, no matter which one you are, once you target you, you will fight to the death and don't care about your life.

I am afraid that he is just trying to get back to the Censorate.

Of course, the appointment has not yet been completed. The Tongzheng Envoy sat high in the hall. Ben talked to Tang Bohu. When he saw Ye Chunqiu back, he waved to Ye Chunqiu, as if he had something to say to Ye Chunqiu.

Ye Chunqiu stepped forward and said, "Brother Deng is really busy every day. Since he became a commissar of the government, he has not come to the door for some days."

"On duty in the palace is always different from being outside. Please stop joking, I have something to say to you." Deng Jian frowned, obviously he was worried.

Ye Chunqiu sat down and said, "Brother Deng has something to say, but he is just talking."

Looking at his patched official robe, Ye Chunqiu suddenly thought of the scene of this guy walking through the palace like this, and he couldn't help but feel chilled. It was so unusual.

Oh, Ye Chunqiu recently heard a rumor that since Deng Tongzheng took office, all the officials of Tongzheng were poor now. Anyway, when you were walking in the palace, if you saw someone like a beggar walking back and forth, or who were patched, and who were out of ten generations of poor peasants, most of them were from Tongzhengzheng.

It’s really a matter of life that officials are not in trouble, and people and gods are angry. In fact, this is reasonable. Tongzheng Envoy is a merciless person, but he is poor and full of patches. As an official or a clerk, if you are in a bright clothes and angry horse, let alone the Tongzheng Envoy invites you to trouble you, even if he doesn’t cause trouble for you, you will not dare to wear new clothes. So naturally someone will like him and simply wear patched clothes. With the first one, there will be the second one.

All officials have patched the patches, let alone those clerks. It is said that in the past, they were all given to poor relatives, but now they are going to poor relatives to ask for old clothes and cut some holes. The patches are just one by one, so Ye Chunqiu's father-in-law Wang Hua couldn't stand it, and once he even talked about them specifically to Ye Chunqiu.

Deng Jian took a sip of tea and said, "I used to work in the Censorate. Some old friends in the Censorate learned from them that there seem to be a few censors who want to investigate you. Do you know this?"

Ye Chunqiu was stunned. Thinking of this guy hearing a little movement, he hurried to inform him. Ye Chunqiu couldn't help but feel warm. If it were someone else, Ye Chunqiu wouldn't think anything was there. However, Ye Chunqiu had always known Deng Jian's character. Deng Jian has always adhered to his moral standards. Although it was a bit ridiculous to say this standard, his principles never wavered.

This kind of officialdom of informing people is common to others, but it is very difficult to let Deng Jian do it. I am afraid that after reporting the news today, Deng Jian may have to be criticized by his own conscience in the late night.

Ye Chunqiu said with a hint of emotion in his heart: "I know a little."

Deng Jian frowned and said, "You have to be careful. This is not a joke. Once the censor really takes your attention, you may not be able to escape unscathed. You are from Hanlin and you don't know much about the Dao in the Censorate. Don't fall into their tricks."

"Hmm?" Ye Chunqiu said, "I still want to ask Brother Deng for advice."

Deng Jian said seriously: "If it is just a normal impeachment of Feng Ji, you are not afraid. However, some censors often have someone to support behind the scenes. Since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, the censor's status has been the most transcendent. No matter what they do, they are innocent. But once someone is unfavorable to the censor, it is a crime of death. Do you understand? I just ask you, what should you do if the censor deliberately provokes you? You have to tolerate it, and you can't bear it. You see, Your Majesty is often scolded by the censor, so you have to beat him up?"

Seeing Ye Chunqiu still disagreed, Deng Jian felt a little anxious, paused, and said, "I'm telling you seriously. Look, even the officials in the cabinet, if they are scolded, they will probably show their massive amounts."
