Chapter 167 Xiaowei is not bad

"Big partner, why did Donglin impeach Xiao Wei? Xiao Wei is a good man."

In the East Palace, the Crown Prince Zhu Changluo was very surprised to hear what Wang An said. In his impression, the young master Wei was a big good man. Not only did he go to the East Palace for filial piety during the holidays, but he also borrowed him 100,000 taels of silver when his young master was in the most difficult time. He was a good man, but somehow he offended Donglin.

Wang Wenyan stood aside with his hands behind his back, looking extremely respectful, but he was a little surprised. I wonder why I had a good impression of Wei Liangchen.

"Your Highness, you can't let Wei Liangchen deceive the false appearance. You can tell that Wei Liangchen is good at fighting power outside, and it doesn't count the harm of the vassals. He also lent troops overseas, killing Liang to make contributions, and even compete with the people for profit. He used His Majesty's name to occupy a large piece of land in Jiangnan, forcing the people to be tenants for him, and even openly blackmailed the founding ministers such as Duke of Wei, such as Wei Liangchen, who deceived the king over the years, has been like bamboo in the southern mountain. That is, if His Majesty asked him to hide it, he would not know that since Kedao knew that he would report it to him, he would have to deal with it severely. Otherwise, if this son continued to do anything wrong, the emperor's reputation would be ruined by him."

Since the god-in-law Wei Chao was arrested and beaten by Dongchang, Wang An's impression of Wei Liangchen has become worse and worse. Therefore, Wang Wenyan said that Yang Lian, Zuo Guangdou and others of the Donglin Party wanted to participate in Wei Liangchen, and Eunuch Wang supported him from the bottom of his heart.

"Are these true?"

It was difficult for Zhu Changluo to associate the little master Wei who was helping him in time and rescued him from the East Palace in the midst of water and fire with the traitor in the temple that Da Fan said.

"Your Highness, the Tongzheng Department has received more than 60 memorials impeaching Wei Liangchen in a day. Can there be any false information?" Wang An helped the young master to a chair and sat down as he spoke.

In the past two years, Zhu Changluo's body has become fatter and fatter. He has to breathe after walking a few steps, so he tried his best not to go out, even if he went out, he would still be in a sedan chair.

Zhu Changluo may have realized that being too obese was not good, so he was losing weight. However, others were exercising to exercise their bodies, but he always lie on the concubine. Several beautiful palace ladies in the palace called me favored me. In this case, Zhu Changluo was not enough and often instructed the attendant to go outside to find some beauties for him to secretly bring them into the Eastern Palace. For this matter, Empress Xili and Zhu Changluo had a very quarrel. They had a few times.

Wang An advised me a few times to cherish my body and not to get close to women frequently. My master was very confident and said that he knew that women were harmful to his body, but he really needed to be injured by women, otherwise how could he lose weight? : :

This statement made Wang An laugh and cry. After a few times, he saw that the young master didn't listen, so he could only let him go. After all, Wang An couldn't control the Prince's bed affairs.

After sitting down, Zhu Changluo looked anxious on his face and looked at Wang An with a headache: "Big partner, what should I do?"

Wang An shook his head and knew what the young master pointed at. He asked, "Have you borrowed a lot of money from Wei Liangchen?"

Zhu Changluo's face turned red, and he whispered twice, but he was embarrassed to say it.

"I don't care about your highness's loan, but now it's important to tell the truth to me." Wang An was also very sorry for his own bad family. But his money was like a flowing water. At present, the East Palace is really an empty space and a real debt hole. To put it bluntly, most of the people who are profiting outside are probably creditors of the East Palace.

Zhu Changluo hesitated for a moment and finally told his partner frankly: "It's not much, I borrowed 100,000 taels from Xiao Wei," paused and said again: "There are more than 100,000 taels in Shouning."

Even though Wang An was mentally prepared, the young master actually borrowed Wei Liangchen's 100,000 taels and made him a little confused. He woke up and wondered: "Where did the money from His Royal Highness Princess?"

"Shouning helped Xiao Wei sell maritime bonds, the business is pretty good." Zhu Changluo told the story of his sister selling bonds for Wei Liangchen.

Wang An had never heard of such bonds, but Wang Wenyan was stunned for a moment because he thought of the two bonds sold to him by Deputy Commander Meng of the Nancheng Military Police more than a year ago. At that time, Deputy Commander Meng was still mysteriously saying that if it weren't for Wang Wenyan's good friendship with him, he wouldn't have sold such a good thing. Just maritime bonds are very popular now. Without a way, you can't buy them even if you have money.

Wang Wenyan also bought the two bonds with the idea of ​​giving Deputy Commander Meng a face. After all, Deputy Commander Meng is a local snake in Nancheng. There are still many places to use in the future, so it is not easy to offend him. But this summer, these two bonds actually divided the dividends, which made Wang Wenyan interested and asked Deputy Commander Meng to buy a few more copies. As a result, it was said that the bonds issued this year had been sold out long ago. If you want to buy them, you have to book in advance. It is estimated that they have to wait next year.

Wang Wenyan made a fuss and wanted to know who was in charge of the issuance of the maritime bonds behind the scenes, but Deputy Commander Meng just didn't tell him, and only said that the background was so big that it was scary. Therefore, Wang Wenyan thought it was the emperor who supported the bonds behind him, but now he heard that Princess Shouning was helping Wei Liangchen sell them, which surprised him. At the same time, he was even more determined to get rid of Wei Liangchen, otherwise he would not be able to get rid of his power in Beijing.

"Your Highness, my Eastern Palace has only 10,000 taels of silver per year. You should be more frugal in the future."

Wang An must persuade the young master, otherwise the hole will become bigger and bigger, and the interest alone will not be paid back. When the matter is broken, how will the emperor look at the young master?

"I don't know the situation of the Eastern Palace, but my partner is not unaware of it, if it is not the father."

Zhu Changluo had to defend himself. It was not that he was frugal, but that his father was too partial and gave him too little money. Thinking of his third brother Chang Xun, he took hundreds of thousands of taels away from Beijing alone, while his prince was only more than ten thousand taels a year. What is this money enough?

"Let's not talk about this for now. I just discussed it with Wen Yan. Your Highness must support Yang Jia and others this time." Wang An changed the topic, and he couldn't explain it clearly when he was in the money.

Zhu Changluo hesitated and murmured: "This little Wei is pretty good for my Eastern Palace."

Wang An was about to say that no matter how good it was, his Highness could not protect him if he committed a great crime, otherwise he would be rude. Wang Wenyan interrupted, "Your Highness, if Wei Liangchen is defeated, you don't have to pay back the money you owed."

"ah?!"

Zhu Changluo was stunned.

Wang Wenyan sneered and said, "A slave dared to give high interest to His Royal Highness privately. This courage is to use slaves to deceive the master. Besides, where did he get the money from his Royal Highness? It's not that he embezzled and accepted bribes and deducted His Royal Highness's money. It's a good thing for such a foolish slave to be beheaded. Why do you still think about repaying him money?"

"Um"

It really reminded the dreamer that Zhu Changluo seemed to be awakened by lightning in chaos: Yes, if Xiao Wei is finished, then don’t you have to pay it back 100,000 taels?

Seeing that the young master was moved, but seemed to be hesitant, Wang An hurriedly said: "Your Highness does not need to come forward in this matter, Yang will deal with them."

The prince thought that the prince's palace was thin, or he was in love, but he didn't expect that the prince's prince said in a muffled voice: "There are still more than 100,000 taels in Shouning, so I'm afraid I'll have to pay back the money."

The implication is that Xiao Wei can rely on a loan if he fails, but the other 100,000 taels were borrowed from his sister Shouning, so he still has to pay back the money.

Have you two thought of a good idea to lose more than 200,000 taels at one time?

"Don't worry about the princess for now. Your Highness is the elder brother, and there is no reason why a sister forces a brother." Wang An said so. Shouning is the legitimate daughter of Concubine Zheng, but it is difficult to deal with.

"oh."

Zhu Changluo was a little disappointed, but he wanted to lose all the money. He nodded and looked at Wang Wenyan: "Is Yang Lian confident?"

"Now the gentlemen of Donglin have contacted Kedao, and the court officials wrote a letter to impeach. Tomorrow, Yang Jushi and others will go to the meeting in person and knock on the door. Just wait for Your Majesty to be shocked, and Wei Liangchen will be locked and brought to the capital to be punished."

Wang Wenyan is very confident about this. It is a major event in this dynasty. The emperor must ask about the emperor when his ministers knock on the door. In this way, the illegal rituals Wei Liangchen did outside will be able to listen to the heavens. At that time, the person waiting for Wei Liangchen must be the Tiqi Kaikou.

Zhu Changluo said softly, but did not express his opinion. He was thinking about whether this matter would have more benefits than disadvantages to his prince or more harm than good.

It would be better if Xiao Wei lost money, but if his family lacks money in the future, wouldn’t Shouning have no money to borrow?

This is really a dilemma.

At this time, Wang An reminded him: "Your Highness, Wei Liangchen has close contacts with the Zhejiang Party."

Zhu Changluo was a little puzzled.

"When the Demon Book case, the chief assistant Shen Yiguan wanted to kill His Highness Teacher Guo Shilang. Now I heard that the Prime Minister Fuqing wanted to retire. If the Prime Minister Fuqing left, the successor of the Prime Minister would probably be Fang Congzhe. This person is from the Zhejiang Party. If he became the Prime Minister, the Prime Minister would not be quiet here." Wang Wenyan was speaking.

After hearing this, Zhu Changluo became silent. The Zhejiang Party had always stood on Concubine Zheng's side. When former chief assistant Shen Yiguan was in office, he suppressed the Donglin Party who supported him. His mentor Guo Zhengyu almost asked him to kill him, but he begged Chen Ju, the then Dongchang chief seal, to protect Guo Zhengyu's life.

That is, when Zhejiang Hall was in full swing, various demon cases appeared repeatedly in the capital, pointing to him as the prince of Zhu Changluo. Therefore, if the Zhejiang Party members were allowed to serve as the chief minister, he would probably have a hard time.

With this analysis, what Wang Wenyan said was to remind him that Wei Liangchen not only had to be eliminated, but also used this to attack the Zhejiang Party, so as to ensure that the East Palace was fine.

"Then what do you want me to do?" Zhu Changluo made up his mind, but he didn't know what he could do.

Wang An was happy and said, "Tomorrow, Yang's ministers will knock on the door. If your Majesty is sure of Yang's ministers' reports, then your Highness might as well write a letter to impeach him, so that Wei Liangchen will die."

"What if the father is not sure?" Zhu Changluo said worriedly.

Wang An smiled and said, "If Your Majesty is not allowed, Your Highness does not need to write a letter. He just needs to say a few good words to Yang Jiashu who knocked on the door."

"Yang Lian is the current talent of the Donglin Party. If Your Highness can save him, he can be a minister in the future." Wang Wenyan's meaning is very clear. If the young master can save Yang Lian, then the backbone of the Donglin Party will be used by the young master and will be the backbone of the governing court in the future.

"Okay, I'll listen to my partner." Computer::/
