Chapter 27 Your father is still your father
"Ge Dan suspected that this Eunuch Wang was fake. Although he didn't know that Eunuch Wang had gone to Liaodong, Eunuch Wang would not leave Beijing easily, and he also noticed that this Eunuch Wang did not look real." Ge Qi looked at Liu Ji and continued, "But he was not sure now, so he wrote a letter to ask me, hoping that I would give him an answer."
After taking a look at his student, Liu Ji said directly: "What's wrong?"
For Liu Ji, if things were really that simple, then Ge Qi would not have come to find him at this time.
Ge Qi nodded and said, "The burrow of the Jiuqu River embankment in Danyang County was not because of the heavy rain, but because of the corruption in the renovation of the embankment. Feng Li, the magistrate of Danyang County, was now a Tongzhi of Zhenjiang Prefecture. He washed the water of the Jiuqu River embankment and opened it. Wang Zhi participated in this case, and he walked all over the south of the Yangtze River and deceived many officials."
"Feng Li bribed this fake Wang Zhi and then took the fake Wang Zhi to Danyang County, but Ge Dan saw the flaw."
After hearing Ge Qi's words, Liu Ji narrowed his eyes, stroked his beard, and then said, "Ge Dan left the person in Danyang?"
"Yes!" Ge Qi nodded: "He used Feng Li's case to keep the fake Wang Zhi in Danyang, and said to the outside world that Feng Li was corrupt and bribed the power eunuch. Now the public opinion is surging, but it is also within a controllable range. It is not right for the fake Wang Zhi to leave now, nor is it not left. Ge Dan also sent someone to secretly monitor the fake Wang Zhi. If he wants to run away, he will take it down directly."
"I'm really brave!" Liu Ji sighed, then stood up and said, "This matter must be done beautifully!"
For Liu Ji, this time it was an opportunity, an opportunity to show his strength. Of course, it was also an opportunity to seek credit in front of the emperor and Wang Zhi. His people discovered that Wang Zhi had a fake love. As for the things Ge Dan did, although Ge Qi did not say it clearly, Liu Ji also knew that Ge Dan was preparing to win reputation.
Liu Ji didn't care. It was all harmless. The focus of this matter was on Wang Zhi. Thinking of this, Liu Ji ordered: "I understand this matter, you can do it!"
Soon Ge Qi's carriage left the Liu Mansion and headed towards the palace. Ge Qi knew that Liu Ji would never show his head, but would only support him in secret. His teacher was like this, and Ge Qi was not surprised. After coming to the palace, the news of Ge Qi's meeting came in. Ge Qi glanced at a eunuch standing not far away, bowed and said, "Eunuch Chen, let's talk?"
This Eunuch Chen is named Chen Gong. He is Wang Zhi's confidant and the spy that Wang Zhi stayed in the capital. In addition to meeting the emperor, Ge Qi's other thing when he entered the palace was to come to him.
After hearing Ge Qi's words, Chen Gong immediately smiled: "I don't know what Lord Liu has to give?" Then he took Ge Qi to a secluded location.
"I have something to ask, did Eunuch Wang send someone to Jiangnan?" As he said that, Ge Qi looked around, looking very nervous.
After hearing Ge Qi's words, Chen Gong's face suddenly darkened and his voice was a little unhappy: "Mr. Ge, we don't know about this, and we dare not ask about it, but we advise Lord Ge, it's best not to know about this, nor do we ask about it."
Just kidding, when will the factory in Xichang not send people? Can you tell me?
When Ge Qi saw Chen Gong, he seemed to have misunderstood, so he waved his hand and said, "Eunuch Chen misunderstood. That's right. The people below met Eunuch Wang in Danyang County, Zhenjiang Prefecture. This Eunuch Wang made a lot of money in Jiangnan. He was all in the name of Eunuch Wang. At the same time, he also participated in the affairs of local officials and sheltered corrupt officials. This matter is not small. The people below sent a message."
"The people below want to ask what's going on. If it's really Eunuch Wang's people, I will ask the people below to suppress it. Eunuch Wang would better warn some of the people here. He said he was Eunuch Wang. We all know that Eunuch Wang is in Liaodong now!"
When Chen Gong heard this, his body trembled and his face was full of disbelief: "Mr. Ge, is this serious? This is not a joke!"
"Of course it's true!" Ge Qi looked unhappy: "I am the minister of the Ministry of Revenue. How could I joke about such a thing? I came in today to tell His Majesty about this."
After Chen Gong confirmed this, he couldn't help but curse in his heart, who is this? He is so brave. Chen Gong already had a guess in his heart that this must be done by a liar. If he was his own person, he would not have said that he was Eunuch Wang. As for using the banner, taking advantage of some benefits and covering up corrupt officials, this is nothing in Chen Gong's opinion, but no one of his own people dares to pretend to be Eunuch Wang, that is seeking death.
"I will send this matter to Liaodong immediately. I will ask Lord Ge to make more mistakes in front of His Majesty!" Chen Gong said hurriedly.
Ge Qi thought for a while, and then said, "It's easy to say. This liar pretended to be Eunuch Wang, but he was under the banner of the palace. This is disrespectful to the Tian family!"
Listening to Ge Qi's words that seemed to be sighing, Chen Gong nodded repeatedly, and couldn't help but admire in his heart. This Ge Qi looked like he was not so beautiful, and he was also a cunning guy! He came to find himself to sell it, or to sell it to Eunuch Wang. You have to keep it, but it won't be possible if you don't keep it. Although Ge Qi simply changed his sentence, it changed the essence of the matter.
If you pretend to be Wang Zhi and rely on Wang Zhi's power, then how powerful are you Wang Zhi? Let the entire Jiangnan officialdom curry favor with you. If Wang Zhi pretends to be corrupt, the Jiangnan officials dare not speak out. Do you Wang Zhi want to go to heaven? Once your Majesty thinks this way, Wang Zhi will even peel off the skin even if he cannot finish it. The eunuch must be favored. Such a thing will definitely lay nails in His Majesty's heart, and the public will melt gold and destroy bones. It's not bad!
Ge Qi changed his sentence, "The liar pretended to be Wang Zhi and was really the emperor's banner. What does it mean? It is the emperor's power, so this is normal. At the same time, it also shows that Wang Zhi also relied on the emperor's power. The ministers gave Wang Zhi face, but in fact, it was not for Wang Zhi, but for the emperor. At the same time, it also shows Ge Qi's attitude. Ge Qi gave not for Wang Zhi's face, but for the respect and respect of Your Majesty and the face of Your Majesty.
The only thing that changes here is whose power is fake Wang Zhizhang. What does it matter? What does it mean? What is he said and what he is.
