Chapter 179: The chance for revenge has come
Liu Laifu has now completely become a farmer, and in the acres of land opened in the back garden of Cining Palace, Laifu carried a hoe and sweated heavily in the fields.
I saw this guy wearing a white towel on his shoulder, which he used to wipe his sweat from time to time. Zhong Cuigong, who was arrested, and a young eunuch followed him to weed behind him.
Liu Laifu was busy, but everyone was suffering. Complaints were everywhere. At this time, Liu Laifu was working very hard. He carried the hoe and turned around: "You all listen to your order from the Crown Prince. Let us look at this land. If anyone of you dares to be lazy and fool you, wait for me to tell the Crown Prince to beat you up!"
One of the people who was arrested as a strong man was the chief officer of Shangyijian, whose official position was several levels higher than the nameless Lai Fu. Moreover, this person was in charge of Emperor Chongzhen's crown, robe, shoes, boots and socks in Shangyijian. He was praised several times by Emperor Chongzhen on weekdays and was very arrogant.
But you are arrogant and come to the back garden of my Cining Palace. If you are a dragon, you have to lie on it, and if you are a tiger, you have to lie on it. His Royal Highness said that as long as you come to Cining Palace to farm, the eunuchs from the Forbidden City will be demolished. Whoever dares not listen, just deal with him.
What is the name of this Shangyi Superintendent Wan Chen? Even if you are the Chief Secretary, with the support of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, Liu Laifu is still afraid of you.
In fact, Liu Laifu, the head of Shangyijian, did not have the courage to call him. When he asked him to come, Liu Laifu actually had selfish intentions.
Before, when Liu Laifu was in charge of the department, he had just entered the palace. The department set up a supervisor to manage the rituals, ceremonial guards, rain gear, large umbrellas, etc., and had a member of the eunuch in charge of the seal. The company set up a complicated supervisor and had no real power. It was the worst department in the 12 supervisors in the Ming Dynasty.
At that time, Wan Chen was already greedy in the palace. At that time, Wan Chen was arrogant and gave Liu Lai a lot of blessings. In secret, the young eunuchs who had just entered the palace called Wan Chen a "Skinny".
The reason why Wan Chen is so arrogant is because Wang Xiangyao is supported by him. As soon as Wan Chen entered the palace, he worshipped Wang Xiangyao as his godfather.
Who is Wang Xiangyao? It is a dog eunuch! In March of the 17th year of Chongzhen, Li Zicheng was trapped in Beijing. On the 19th, he guarded the Xuanwu Gate and led a thousand inner-died men to open the door to welcome Li Zicheng's troops.
In other words, the Xuanwu Gate in Beijing was opened by Wang Xiangyao to welcome the thieves into the city. However, this person has great power in the Forbidden City and is deeply trusted by Chongzhen. Even Zhu Cilang was afraid of him.
A prince cannot easily shake the eunuchs beloved by Chongzhen. Unless Zhu Cilang ascends the throne in the future, he can carry out a new round of purge of eunuchs.
At that time, Wan Chen relied on Wang Xiangyao's power, and every time the newcomer who entered the palace was bullied by him. He was punished to kneel down, not be allowed to eat, hit the palms, and hit the boards. It was commonplace. Anyone who dared to go against Wan Chen would have no good results.
When Liu Laifu first entered the palace, he didn't know anything, and offended Wan Chen for the first time. Wan Chen slapped two big mouths first, and then knelt outside the hall on a heavy snowy day and almost froze to death. If it weren't for an old eunuch who had retired from the washing clothes bureau, Laifu would have been frozen to death long ago.
如今,报仇的机会来了!
Liu Laifu took Zhu Cilang's Shangfang Sword. The prince said that you can instruct any eunuch in the Forbidden City at will. Whoever dares not listen, slapped him with a big mouth. If you don't listen, tell Empress Yian or tell me.
Therefore, the eunuchs that Liu Laifu went to capture were not afraid to work because they were the instructions of the prince.
But the scorching sun is so hot that weeding under the poisonous sun is really killing them.
Wan Chen, who was sweating like rain, only felt that the air he exhaled was hot. He couldn't stand it anymore, so he wanted to stop and rest.
How could Lai Fu miss this good opportunity? He turned his head suddenly and widened his eyes: "Eunuch Wan, what are you doing!"
Wan Chen, who was carrying a hoe to rest, jumped: "What are you doing? Are you doing? Are you done? Is this a job that people do? Let me tell you that our family will stop doing it, and whoever you like to do it!"
As he said that, Wan Chen was furious and threw away the hoe in his hand. The eunuchs behind him had long complained, and they threw down the hoe, causing complaints.
"That's right, this is not a job that people do. Let's weed, why?"
"That's right, you Liu Laifu is holding chicken feathers as a command arrow. Who do you want to find in this job? I'll stop serving you."
“就是,走走走,大伙儿都走!”
The few behind them were all Wan Chen's flatterers. They were swearing by Wan Chen and started to clamor. They threw away their hoes, and some even kicked down a corn.
Liu Laifu rushed over and rushed over: "What are you doing! This is the corn planted by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. Do you know how important this corn is? What are you going to do!"
The little eunuch was named Jin Bao, and he was Wan Chen's right-hand man. He put his waist on his back and looked up casually: "Oh, I didn't mean it, Isn't it just a strange grass leaf? What's so amazing?"
"You, I'll slap you and me!" Lai Fu was furious and rushed up to grab Jin Bao's clothes, raised his right hand and was about to slap him.
Then, he suddenly pulled Lai Fu away with a strong force. It was Wan Chen, and he pointed at Lai Fu angrily: "Liu Lai Fu, don't be shameless, what are you? What do you want to hit someone?"
Jin Bao immediately cried: "Eunuch Wan, you have to make the decision for the villain. Look, it was Lai Fu who caught me, and I beat me."
The evil man complained first, and Lai Fu was anxious. He ignored Wan Chen's identity and was a little higher than himself: "Tell you, no one is allowed to leave. His Royal Highness said that I asked me to find someone to weed. Whoever dares to disobey my orders, I will beat him!"
Several eunuchs burst into laughter, and Wan Chen pointed at Lai Fu and laughed back and forth: "You? Hahaha, just rely on you. Come on, I'm itchy, you beat me, you hit me, don't you want to slap me? Let me see if you are a little eunuch Zhong Cuigong who is not of grade or grade, and you are against you! You hit me and see."
Wan Chen is arrogant, you Liu Laifu is nothing. Not to mention you, even the Prince Prince, you have to respect Wang Xiangyao three points. I, Wan Chen, are the princess, and I am still a chief officer.
You a rankless eunuch, relying on the power of the Eastern Palace, I really think that the Forbidden City is your world.
To be honest, Lai Fu raised his right hand, but it was really a bit weak. Although His Royal Highness said that anyone who dared not listened would slap him. But the person in front of him was much bigger than his official position, which was a crime.
Just as Liu Laifu slowly lowered his palm and wanted to admit defeat, a cold sound rang behind him.
"Lai Fu, why don't you beat me? The little eunuch in our Zhongcui Palace is so arrogant. Not to mention you are a small manager, even if the people from the Silijian come, they will still be beaten to me!"
