Chapter fifty-one
The Summer Palace is lush and green everywhere, with the leaves as green as they dripping into water; the pavilions and towers that are just right around the magnificent halls are often dotted, and they are integrated with the surrounding scenery from a distance, without any abruptness; the breeze on Kunming Lake is coming, and the blue waves are rippling, which is so dazzling. This royal garden that embezzles a large amount of naval military expenses, consumes the remaining financial resources of the Qing court, and spends tens of thousands of labor exudes her unique charm in such a special season.
If you really enjoy the scenery and play with the scenery, it may make people linger. Unfortunately, the mood is always determined by your mood. If your mentality is bad, even the best beautiful scenery will be difficult to save. Lin Guangyu gave the order, and the imperial guards surrounded him the next day, and Sheng and the others moved in. The saying "appreciating the Summer Palace to escape the summer heat" sounds extremely respectful, and people can fully enjoy the treatment of the empress dowager, but in fact it is a place of death. Yang Shixiang, a passerby in the Summer Palace, died of illness during the "cultivation" period in the garden. After his death, he was ruined and his family property was confiscated. Fortunately, the sage king was kind and did not enjoy the treatment of opening a coffin and killing corpses.
When he thought of this festival, Sheng Xuanhuai was so horrible that he almost collapsed on the ground, and was in a bad mood. After entering the Summer Palace, he was exhausted and looked haggard in less than three days and lost weight.
Although Na Tong was confident and had a little thought of looking at the diorama, her face changed, and she was still calm in the end, but her calves were vaguely twitching. After entering the Summer Palace, she pretended to be calm and recited poems and lyrics every day, and she looked contented, but by chance she still had an unparalleled anxiety.
Although the ministers couldn't figure out whether it was or Sheng, they finally wanted to throw away one of them. The ministers who had no good feelings for Sheng were secretly happy. But after this trouble, the three-character "Summer Palace" was a big name and gradually became a forbidden place for corrupt and abused power. As long as they went, they would not end well. Later, the ministers criticized each other to the critical point. The most incest sentence was: "I think, your day is not far away from the Summer Palace."
"During the Reformation Year, the three words 'Summer Palace' are so scared by the traitors!"

...
In the Yangxin Palace, the emperor summoned Liang Shi, who was an important witness first. Cen Chunxuan originally planned to leave for Shanghai in the morning. However, when he was summoned, he still appeared in the Yangxin Palace, and his eyes were worth pondering.
"You provided the situation in Tongzou Chen Zhongdi?"
"Yes, I dare to guarantee that every sentence is true."
"When will he become the Master of Qingtian? Who do you want to participate in and impeach, let me not make any comments, let a group of censors not appeal, let the Ministry of Justice, the Dali Court will not report, but to look for him, who will you deceive?"
What does this mean? When he heard this, Liang Shi's face changed drastically, sweat drifted down his forehead, but he was still tough on his mouth: "The Zhongtang came to investigate the Li Deshun case the previous time, and accidentally talked about someone selling the country's right to go to his private bags and being full of his personal pockets. I think the Zhongtang is a man of heaven and is a man of old age and planning for the country. This matter is also confidential. I am impeached Shangguan, which is already shocking and must be extra cautious."
This is of course a lie. Although Liang Shi and Sheng Xuanhuai were in a bad way, they did not have the idea of going to Sheng. What they did was actually due to Na Tong's instruction. He wanted to go to Sheng, so he naturally spared no effort to collect various information. However, Sheng did not interact frequently and had no cross-section of responsibilities. How could he find out the details? Therefore, Liang Shi's role was unsuccessful.
But on the other hand, the Tongdi's intentions are extremely doubtful. This false appearance of asking for the people was revealed in just one sentence: "I'm afraid that righteousness is false, and revenge with private matters is true; heartache is a manifestation, and it is a replacement for it."
"Then I dare not make any guesses on how the central government does things."
"What a 'dare not to speculate'. You really don't understand his thoughts? I'm afraid he's pretending to be confused because he understands it?"
After being questioned like this, Liang Shi calmed down and said, "Your Majesty, no matter what my motives are, it is not a mistake to do this matter with reason or law. The reason for the matter is not selfishness or justice, but the facts are the facts. I just want to be ashamed of my heart."
"I am worthy of my heart? Humph, Liang Shi, you are very good at speaking." Lin Guangyu sneered and threw down a memorial, "Let's see for yourself, how can I be worthy of my heart?"
The first page was revealed, "Impossessed Grand Secretary Na Tong, who impeached the corruption and abuse of power." When he saw the name, he actually wrote the words Cen Chunxuan. Liang Shi felt a chill on his back. He just glanced at him from the corner of his eyes and saw Cen Chunxuan standing beside him with a bright eyes and his eyes were as sharp as a sword. He stabbed him straight at him, which made him look down immediately.
The more you turn, the more you feel the colder your hands and feet
When he investigated the Li Deshun case, he thought that he had been clearly displayed in the act without knowing it. Although he did not list the specific amount, every word pointed to the fact that he used money to seal the mouths of the two imperial envoys.
"This... this... I don't know if it was a mistake?"
"I made a mistake? I hope I made a mistake. But according to what you said just now, if you are wrong, don't do selfishness or motivation, just do the facts. If it is verified, what is the difference between wrong and good? As for whether it is true or not, it is simple. Since Xiong Xiling can clearly explore the mixed water of Beiyang, he must be able to check the General Railway Administration clearly. Should we send the inspector to the Railway Administration to clear the accounts tomorrow?"
"Emperor..." Liang Shi crawled on the ground, and Qiqi Ai Ai couldn't speak.
"I don't know. What you say is worthy of your heart, but I don't know which heart is worthy of? Li Deshun was guilty of being guilty of being guilty of being guilty of being guilty of being guilty of being guilty of being guilty of being guilty of being guilty of being guilty of being guilty of being guilty of being guilty of being guilty of being guilty of being guilty of being guilty of being guilty of being guilty of being guilty of being guilty of being guilty of being guilty of being guilty of being guilty of being guilty of being guilty of being guilty of being guilty of being guilty of being guilty of being guilty of being guilty of being guilty of being guilty of being guilty of being guilty of being guilty of being guilty of being guilty of being guilty of being guilty of being guilty of being guilty of being guilty of being guilty of being guilty of being guilty of being guilty of being guilty of being guilty of being guilty of being guilty of being guilty of being
"I am guilty of death, death."
"You don't need to say 'death crime' so miserable. Liang Shi is a tough person. Liang Tou's healthy judgment made you come over. It can be seen that he still has two tricks. To punish the crime, I just need to issue an imperial edict to let you go to the Summer Palace to escape the summer heat. Why bother to waste more words?"
When Liang Shi heard the three words "Summer Palace", he shivered all over. Will there be a good end if he enters there?
"Don't think that doing things is secret, and you can be unaware of them. I know very well what you do. There are gods who want others to know, unless you don't do it. After thinking about it, I only think that talent is rare and I can't bear to treat you like this... It's not your fault for making friends, but it's not your fault for hitting all the boards on you. The world is getting worse and worse, and people's hearts are not old, and some rules have not been done well. I also understand your difficulties - powerful ministers are in power, and unhealthy trends are rampant. If you want to do something good for the country and the people, you must respect all over the place. 'Politics are achieved through bribery'. How can this country be a bad word?" Lin Guangyu paused, "It's not impossible to forgive, but the premise is to tell the truth."
"Emperor..." Liang Shi was so moved that he cried bitterly.

Cen Chunxuan interrupted: "Shi Liang, since you are an old man from the Postal and Communication Department, you should know about Zhu Baokui. How arrogant Zhu was back then? Isn't I just right? I'm still trying to impeach him? The reason why I endure it is because I really think that you are not a big mistake, and you are a decent person. I have made many achievements in regaining the power of the railway. Therefore, I have been pleading for you in front of the emperor, hoping to give you a chance to wake up. Do you still have to care about him until now?"
There is no need to beat the drum again, and even the words are said to be so good. Liang Shi didn't understand that he was the number one idiot in the world. He quickly climbed up to two steps: "Thank you, Lord Zhongtang, for your kindness to protect you."
"It's not me, it's the emperor."
Liang Shi kowtowed heavily: "Your Majesty, I know I am wrong..."
Lin Guangyu and Cen Chunxuan looked at each other and smiled. After some beating, Liang Shi obeyed and accepted.
"It's easy to do your job and show your ability. I will protect you so I can't let me down." Lin Guangyu saw that the temperature was almost the same, and he used the Huairou Dafa. "Zhaoxin bond capital is about to be in place, and the railway construction is the big end. Zhangku Railway Zhangjiakou to Kulun, Mongolia, north-south, connected to the Beijing-Zhangjiakou Railway, Zhangsui Line Zhangjiakou to Suiyuan, east-west, and also connected to the Beijing-Zhangjiakou Railway, Longhai Railway Haizhou to Gansu, east-west, and Jinpu Railway intersects and runs through key places, related to the lifeline of the country and is crucial to national defense. I am extremely anxious and want to be completed as soon as possible. In addition to the participation of general affairs, all powers must be unified in our country and should not be used in other countries. After you go back, you will think carefully about how to start, how to install and come up with a plan as soon as possible."
When Liang Shi heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up. The emperor wanted to overhaul the railway and pointed out that the matter was hosted by him with full authority. The meaning of appreciation and reuse was vividly revealed on the paper. He was extremely excited and stood up and replied loudly: "Please rest assured, I will devote myself to my mission."
"You will be the one who will do this. If it is done well, the Ministry of Posts and Communications has an empty seat for the Secretary of State; if it is not done well, I will see..."
"If you can't do it well, please punish the crimes that have been committed in front of you." Liang Shi's answer was powerful and loud.
