Chapter 1535: Wei Zhongxian Must Die
The latest website: "Eunuch Wei, what's the important thing here?" Shen Long's tone was lukewarm, neither did he trust Wei Zhongxian like Tianqi told him, nor did he hate Wei Zhongxian like Zhu Youxiao, the expression on his face It was exactly the same as when other emperors faced the eunuchs of the previous dynasty.
However, this did not disappoint Wei Zhongxian, on the contrary, he was slightly relieved, because since the death of Apocalypse, he knew that it would be impossible for him to maintain his previous power. Eunuchs are different from civil servants. The power of eunuchs comes from the emperor. Your trust, as long as the emperor trusts you, you can do anything, once you lose the trust of the emperor, you have nothing.
The eunuchs of the Ming Dynasty were no different from the eunuchs of the Han and Tang Dynasties. The ten permanent servants were in charge, and the emperor called Zhang Rang his father because they held the Eighth Colonel of Xiyuan in their hands; Qiu Shiliang dared to abolish the emperor because he held the The Shence Army has military power in its hands, and this power is real.
No matter how powerful Wei Zhongxian is, he can't hold military power like Qiu Shiliang and Zhang Rang. Once the apocalypse dies and Shen Long succeeds to the throne, he will lose the foundation of power. Wei Zhongxian can see this very clearly; if Shen Long comforts him with gentle words , Even trust him like Tianqi, Wei Zhongxian will be worried instead, because this is totally unreasonable, no emperor will continue to retain a former eunuch like him.
If Shen Long speaks coldly, he will also be worried, because it means that the new emperor hates him, and Wei Zhongxian may not take risks in order to save his life.
And it is just right to be lukewarm like now, which means that maybe as long as you give up your power, you can go to Fengyang to guard the imperial tomb, or to guard the tomb for the first emperor, just like those great eunuchs in the previous dynasty. If you lose the power you already have, you can still keep your life. If you save a little money, you may not be able to survive in the future.
So Wei Zhongxian immediately asked to guard the mausoleum for the first emperor, and asked to resign from his current position. Shen Long hesitated, as if he was tempted, but he didn't make a decision right away.
When Wei Zhongxian left, he felt as if a big stone had been put down in his heart, but Shen Long sneered endlessly. He remembered the scene in the movie where Zhu Youjian knelt down to worship Wei Zhongxian. This plot was completely unreasonable.
No matter how awesome you are as a big eunuch, you are also the emperor's domestic slave. You dare to be bowed down by your master. Do you think you have lived too long? If it's a distant clan, it might be fine, anyway, these guys can't make any troubles; but Zhu Youjian is Tianqi's younger brother, Tianqi has no children and is seriously ill, so don't you have to think about who will succeed next? ?
It's too late for Wei Zhongxian to curry favor with Zhu Youjian at this time, so how dare he accept his kneeling? As long as Zhu Youjian kneels in front of Wei Zhongxian, Wei Zhongxian has only one choice left. He has no choice but to kill Zhu Youjian desperately. Zhu Youjian kneeling for Wei Zhongxian is absolutely stupid. Wei Zhongxian accepts Zhu It would be even more stupid for Youjian to kneel down and do nothing.
As for Wei Zhongxian recommending Zhu Youjian to Tianqi,
That's even more nonsense, Tianqi is just this younger brother, who else can he give to Zhu Youjian if he dies? Wei Zhongxian also has a say in this kind of matter? Does he have the Eighth Colonel of Xiyuan in his hand, or the Shence Army? The Four Guards of Tengxiang are not comparable to the Eighth Colonel of Xiyuan and the Shence Army, and they will not listen to Wei Zhongxian.
Don't look at Shen Long's lukewarm appearance, but in his heart, he has already sentenced Wei Zhongxian to death. Many traversers will choose to temporarily save Wei Zhongxian's life, treating him as a mad dog, ready to bite those civil servants at any time, Shen Long But he won't do it, because Wei Zhongxian's reputation is already bad, and he already has his own plan for this dog. There is no way for such a dog to continue to be used, and a useless dog has no value in continuing to live. .
It is not wrong for Chongzhen to dispose of Wei Zhongxian, because Wei Zhongxian has been suffering for a long time in the world, and tidying up Wei Zhongxian can earn prestige. His mistake was to clean up Dongchang and Jinyiwei, so that the civil servants had no fear.
This reminded Shen Long of "In the Name of the People". It also dealt with the problems left over from the previous session. Sha Ruijin's methods were much better than Zhu Youjian's. It was not difficult to clean up the problems left by Wei Zhongxian or Zhao Lichun. However, the difficulty lies in how to deal with them without affecting the stability under their own rule.
As soon as Sha Ruijin came up, he froze the list of personnel left by Zhao Lichun, so that those who opposed Zhao Lichun's family saw hope, and then did not end by himself, but just watched Hou Liangping and the others charge forward. This is the attitude that a superior should have However, if the high-ranking person goes off in person, then he will fall to the bottom.
For the personnel related to Zhao Lichun, Sha Ruijin adopted different methods. He promoted Yi Xue, who was neglected by Zhao Lichun, and invited Chen Yanyan, who was suppressed by Zhao Lichun, to give lectures, so as to win the hearts of opposing Zhao Lichun's department; accept Li Dakang's surrender , to show that he is not here to engage in party disputes, and to appease those people who are related to Zhao Lichun but are not buddies.
In the end, watching Hou Liangping and the others get rid of Qi Tongwei, Gao Yuliang, Liu Xinjian, and Zhao Ruilong, it was a matter of course. Since these people have problems, they should be dealt with, and they quickly won the hearts of the people in Handong Province. Good impression.
Sha Ruijin's beautiful punching combination of splitting and pulling together, combining hardness and softness, also allowed him to gain a firm foothold in Handong Province without making a fuss.
On the other hand, Zhu Youjian is a little too young and thinks about the problem too simply. He thinks that as long as Wei Zhongxian is solved, the world will be peaceful? It is such a simple matter, you cut off a large number of officials in the court at once, and lose the restraint of the eunuch party, it sounds good, after all, without the eunuch party, the court will be full of people.
However, in fact, without the eunuch party, those Qingliu became unscrupulous, and it is not good for a family to be dominant in the court, so Zhu Youjian had to end up in person and fight with those officials, and then he was used by those officials with rich money. He can use the last power to kill people, but killing people alone can't solve the problem.
In this regard, I have to learn from Sha Ruijin. Wei Zhongxian must die, and even some members of the eunuch party who have committed the most heinous crimes must die, but the banner of the eunuch party cannot be completely toppled. Will all the people left behind by Zhao Lichun be dealt with? On the one hand, this can reduce your pressure, and on the other hand, it can also prevent Handong Province from being dominant. Wouldn't Li Dakang have to rely on Sha Ruijin at that time? Keeping him is more useful than killing him.
Also Jinyiwei and Dongchang can't move. Without the supervisory department, Shen Long wouldn't be surprised if those officials did anything. Shen Long used Sha Ruijin as a reference, thinking about what to do after he ascended the throne.
