Chapter 8007 A big game of chess

Liu Shimin stood in front of the desk table of the Dali Temple, holding a yellow scroll in his hand, which is the imperial edict.

Wu Chunfu was trembling in his heart, hurriedly came, knelt on the ground, and shouted: "My minister Wu Chunfu received the order."

Wu Chunfu didn't dare to look up. He was very afraid. If the emperor's will really prohibit him from retrial, he would really have no way to survive.

Behind him is a member of Dali Temple, with as many as seven officials, all of whom are the ministers, judges, etc., and they are considered the highest level of Dali Temple.

Liu Shimin glanced at him, pulled away the imperial edict, and said in a stern voice: "The Emperor Fengtian Chengyun's edict said: Wu Chunfu, the Minister of Dali Temple, performed his duties conscientiously, and was loyal... He will be used separately and will take effect immediately. I will be given this!"

Wu Chunfu frowned and his face changed. He couldn't figure out what this will mean.

The retrial of Yang Lian was approved by the cabinet, and it was not that he made the decision without authorization. If the emperor was angry, it should not be "referring him to another person". But if the emperor was not angry, why should he transfer him away at this time?

Wu Chunfu frowned and felt aching. He really didn't understand. It was related to his death. He had to be cautious and think clearly.

After Liu Shimin finished speaking, the lobby was quiet for a long time.

"Mr. Wu, please accept the order." Liu Shimin said.

Wu Chunfu was shocked and woke up. He quickly raised his hand and said, "I will accept the order."

Wu Chunfu was sweating slightly on his head, and he had a dry mouth. He stood up and looked at Liu Shimin with a stiff smile, and said, "Eunuch Liu, can you reveal one or two about what the emperor's decree meant?"

Liu Shimin smiled slightly and said, "If the miscellaneous family remembers correctly, Lord Wu will be promoted."

Wu Chunfu's eyes lit up immediately. He knew that the six ministries had some changes recently, and several ministers were going to be transferred. Could it be that he was going to be a minister?

The Minister is a third-rank official, and he is more powerful than his Qingshui Dali Temple and has more oil and water!

He was overjoyed and quickly raised his hand and said, "Thank you, my father-in-law, I will be rewarded in the future."

Liu Shimin's smile in his eyes was meaningful, and without saying much, he stepped out of Dali Temple.

Wu Chunfu felt relieved, looked at the imperial edict in his hand, wiped the sweat on his head, and smiled all over his face, as if he had been promoted.

The middle-aged man is not as optimistic as Wu Chunfu. He lowers his head and looks meditative.

This will is really strange. Not to mention the clouds, mountains and fog, this time point is really weird!

Wu Chunfu didn't think so much, and walked quickly inside with the imperial edict.

Things have changed and he is about to be promoted. At this time, there will be no accident in Dali Temple. Yang Lian must be released as soon as possible. He has to think about it carefully.

Fu Changzong, the "external relative", has always been a big handle for Qingliu to attack Zhu Xu. Fu Changzong was criticized, even surrounded, smashed the door, and threw away the manure for no time once or twice, but it was really beaten, which was the first time!

His beating not only did not reduce the heated atmosphere in the capital, but also reduced the "public anger" but became increasingly rampant, as if Fu Changzong's charges had been confirmed and he would step on one hundred feet so that he would never turn over forever!

The patrol battalion guarded the front and back of the Fu Mansion. There were still many people leaning out not far away, and they looked sneaky. Before the patrol battalion soldiers approached, they either acted as a gentleman or disappeared.

Fu family, in Fu Changzong's study room.

Mrs. Fu Chen, Fu Tao, and his wife Fu Li were all there, and their expressions were not very good.

A doctor was bandaging Fu Changzong. There were white cloths on Fu Changzong's head and arms, and blood was seeping out.

"Master, why don't you take leave and hide at home for a few days?" Mrs. Fu advised with a worried look on her face.

Fu Changzong had a gloomy face and snorted coldly: "What do you know about women? Don't talk nonsense!" He was really angry this time. The minister of the Ministry of Revenue was beaten on the street, and it was a big joke when it was spread!

Mrs. Fu's mouth moved, but she didn't dare to say anything more. Fu Changzong was also a standard literati, with a rigid and strict family rules.

Fu Li looked at Fu Tao with some concern, and some people surrounded his husband. Fortunately, it was fine, but it was inevitable that he would be worried about uneasiness in the future.

Fu Tao did not pay attention to his wife. He looked at Fu Changzong and hesitated and said, "Father, this doesn't look like the emperor's style, isn't it..." He already knew that his father was about to be transferred from the capital, and the implication was whether their Fu family had lost their holy heart.

Fu Changzong looked up at him, then looked at Fu Chen and Fu Li, and said lightly: "You all go out."

The two women hesitated for a while and said, "It's the master." As they said, they retreated out with concern.

After Fu Changzong left, his face looked a little better and he pondered: "This is the emperor's style. The longer he endured, the greater the final movement. Although these people seemed to be invisible, do you really think they could hide it from the emperor's eyes?"

Fu Tao frowned and said, "What is the emperor going to do? Logically speaking, nothing can stump him."

Zhu Xu went south, defended Ryukyu, defeated the Western Yi, recovered Annan, and even made the Southeast countries surrender again. In addition, before pacifying Jiannu and recovering Korqin, Chahar bowed down. It can be said that his "martial arts" have already followed Taizu Taizong of the Ming Dynasty. Despite all kinds of criticisms, his prestige is already unattainable!

With the tight military power, the generals were convinced that his throne was as stable as Mount Tai and could not be shaken!

Fu Changzong stood up, walked to the desk and sat down, picked up the teacup, shook his head slightly, and said, "I can't guess the emperor's thoughts, but by this time, he no longer needs to kill people."

"The emperor wants Donglin, and the remnants of the eunuch party completely surrender?" Fu Tao followed and said in his heart.

"Martial Arts" are already in hand, so the immortal emperor is missing the "Martial Arts" of the ages. "Martial Arts" is different from "Martial Arts". "Martial Arts" requires the support of literati and write books and biography. The great scholars of the Ming Dynasty are more or less related to Donglin. After all, most of the Donglin Party members were literary masters, and they were prominent in the literary world of the Ming Dynasty, with great importance and great influence.

Fu Changzong could understand what Fu Tao meant and shook his head and said, "The emperor is not so shallow. I feel that he doesn't care about 'civilization and martial arts'. 'martial arts' came from his 'revitalization of the Ming Dynasty', and it should have a unique purpose."

Fu Tao understood and sighed softly in his heart. No matter when, they could not guess the emperor's thoughts.

"Master, Master, the imperial edict has arrived. Come out and receive the edict..." Fu Chen suddenly ran over and shouted in a hurry.

Fu Changzong and Fu Tao were both stunned. Fu Changzong stood up and asked his wife, "Did you transfer me to Shaanxi?"

Fu Chen's expression turned a little red, and the corners of his mouth moved. He pulled him out and walked out: "You will know when you arrive."

Fu Changzong looked at Fu Chen's expression, but he didn't look very similar. He went out in confusion. He saw that it was Liu Shimin's personal order, and his expression was even more puzzled.

"My minister Fu Changzong received the order." Fu Changzong suppressed a trace of uneasiness in his heart.

Liu Shimin looked calm, spread out the imperial edict, and said in a solemn voice: "The emperor's edict in accordance with the heavens said... Fu Chen's husband is righteous and teaches his children well... He is awarded the fourth-rank imperial edict, and hopes to continue his execution... Fu Li's morale is quiet and elegant, virtuous and virtuous... He is awarded the sixth-rank imperial edict... He is awarded this."

Fu Changzong understood before he finished listening and sighed in his heart that this will was enough to dispel those people's delusions.

Fu Tao's expression was relaxed and he felt very relieved. The emperor's decree showed his attitude. The status of the Fu family will be unshakable in the future. If the Fu family moves again, they will have to bear the emperor's anger!

The happiest thing is that the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law of the Fu family knelt there, and they were so excited that they were about to cry.

Men studied hard for ten years, in order to pass the imperial examination, to be a high-ranking official, to be a marquis and prime ministers. In addition to entrustment for life, the highest honor for women is the "edict". With this edict, their status is like a man who has a title, which is instantly turned upside down and proudly in the world. It is an unparalleled glory!

After Liu Shimin finished promulgating, he closed the imperial edict and said with a smile: "Shangshu Fu, please accept the edict."

Fu Changzong raised his hand calmly and said, "I will accept the order."

Liu Shimin handed it over, holding the whisk and didn't move.

Fu Changzong stood up, looked at Liu Shimin, and said, "It's a blessing from Eunuch Liu, I wonder if the emperor has any other explanations?"

Liu Shimin looked at Fu Changzong, thought for a while, and said with a smile: "Sir, why not sort out the Ministry of Revenue. If some people don't quite agree to stay, you can draw a list for the miscellaneous families... don't make any noise."

Fu Changzong was stunned. What does this mean? He knew very well that Liu Shimin would not speak nonsense, nor did he dare to do things randomly. Obviously, it should be what the emperor wanted to do.

Nodded slightly in his heart, Fu Changzong knew that this should be related to the emperor's plan, and said with a smile: "I have recorded my father-in-law's favor. If you are not in a hurry, you might as well leave a glass of wine."

Liu Shimin was a little polite to Fu Changzong and said, "Shangshu Fu is intent, but the family still has to go back and report... In addition, Shangshu Fu should prepare earlier."

Fu Changzong was stunned again. He was about to ask again, but Liu Shimin had already raised his foot and walked outside.

"Tao'er, wait for Eunuch Liu to send you to your father." Although he was panicked, Fu Changzong still reacted instinctively.

"Yes." Fu Tao quickly agreed and personally led Liu Shimin out of the mansion.

Fu Chen and Fu Li were both very happy, and they were so happy that they couldn't speak when they looked at the imperial edict. The maids around him were naturally honored and whispered to you, and were very happy.

But Fu Changzong was not happy. Liu Shimin's last sentence was not casual, but it should have been intentional hinting to him.

"Will the Emperor transfer me away before the New Year?" Fu Changzong whispered to himself. If he was so anxious, the emperor's plan would probably be a bit big. Ordering him to be the prime minister of the six provinces may not only be a matter of government affairs, but it should be that if he is in the capital, it will hinder the plan.

Fu Tao walked back soon, and looked at Fu Changzong standing in the yard, and said in confusion: "Father, what's wrong?"

Fu Changzong looked up at the sky and sighed: "The emperor is playing a big game of chess... You have lived in the royal money house from today. Don't come out if you have nothing to do. Tell your mother that your family will be closed to thank the guests from now on. Without my permission, you are not allowed to go out!"

Fu Tao's expression changed slightly and he said, "Father, what happened?"

Fu Changzong laughed and said, "It's okay, the emperor wants to protect our Fu family. Just listen to your father."

Fu Tao was puzzled and hesitated and said, "It's my father."

Not long after, two sounds sounded in the unknown darkness of the capital.

"Since Jing is going to protect the Fu family, let him protect it. If you can't get the Ministry of Revenue, we will take the Ministry of Personnel!"

"No, the Ministry of Personnel is not enough! The Supervisor is the Censorate. Mastering it means mastering the way of speech!"
