At the beginning of July, the first half-envoy, half-spy and tour group of Daming's first team to visit Europa finally set off.
There were two senior missionaries with high status as tour guides. The leader of the civil service was Shi Lin, the imperial envoy of the Right Capital of the Imperial Court. The accompanying translators included 15 students from Guozijian and 30 young soldiers from the Beijing Martial Arts School.
In addition, more than 30 maritime merchants, more than a dozen Arab and Portuguese sailors, and hundreds of Fujian and Yue navies with experience in naval battles have all boarded the newly built Fuchuan, Guangchuan and Shachuan and waited at the sea-going wharf in Tianjin. them.
Under the leadership of the Prince Taibao, the British Duke Zhang Mao, and the three elders, the Manchu civil and military officials were sent to the outskirts of Beijing for ten miles, and they said goodbye to everyone in tears.
The sea is long, the wind and waves are heavy, and Europa is not a peaceful and peaceful place. I don’t know when the ship will be returned. I just hope that everyone can take care of themselves and return safely.
After this major event was over, the mood of the imperial court had not calmed down yet. Hu Ke put a stamp on Zhonghua Chang to impeach Cui Xie, a lecturer at the Hanlin Academy, who was personally engaged in business and wealth, and deliberately made friends with Jin Yiwei, important officials in the court, and fornicating women. To have an illegitimate daughter who is not worthy of being a lecturer.
When the bullet was handed to the center, Li Ge old blushed and said indignantly: "What is Cui Meiren, illegitimate daughter, if this disciple of mine is willing to marry a wife and have children, I don't have a daughter to marry him! What is the general Bianjun? The credit goes to Jin Yiwei... How could such a thing happen! The plot of Jin Yiwei's third part is completely different from the current war!"
Mr. Liu Ge gave him a second look: he knew that Jin Yiwei's manuscript was written by you, but there was little movement in the palace, so don't be so excited, you were scared if you didn't see Cheng Xueshi.
Elder Xie Ge could not sit still.
His name is also printed on the covers of the first two parts of Jin Yiwei.
Not only did he have contacts with Cui Xie, he often received Xie Jia's fine wine and fresh food from him, and he also held Cui's family's brushes.
Only Cheng Xueshi really didn't know anything, and tried to comfort Li Gelao: "It's mediocre not to be envied by others, and we are not often impeached by others... How can the sage take this kind of nonsense seriously?"
Although the bullets are hateful, they can't be detained in the cabinet.
Li Dongyang and Xie Qiandu had frequent contacts with Cui Xie, and they had to be impeached, so they had to avoid suspicion, so Liu Shoufu took it and wrote a transcript, approved the blue batch, and passed it to the inside. Li Xie Erge also immediately wrote a memorial and self-defense, clarifying that they had only compiled the imperial examination notes and other books printed by Ju Anzhai, so they accepted the writing brush sent by Cui Xie on behalf of them.
When the memorial was handed over to Da Nei, Emperor Hongzhi was also taken aback, and regardless of anything else, he first asked the eunuch Sili, who served in front of the imperial court: "Didn't Mr. Cui say that he can't get married, why is there another rumor that he has a wife and daughter? What happened? thing?"
Eunuch Gao tried his best to defend him out of public anger: "This is nothing. It's just that when Cui Xueshi was young and lived in the countryside, there seemed to be a beautiful Cui who could draw in the village. Those frivolous people must have heard that there was a bachelor, Beauty, if you think they are a match, you will pass them together!"
The emperor said with disgust, "Where is this rumor, and there are officials who don't care about it early - even if it is said that Mr. Cui takes a concubine, he shouldn't have the same surname. Name, also have a surname, or change the name of the concubine, where there is a Da Lala and a woman with the same surname rumored to have a romantic affair.
This rumor is to deliberately tarnish the reputation of the court officials. Cui Xie personally managed the business, so he asked the Metropolitan Procuratorate to investigate.
As for the matter of forming a party for personal gain and paying officials with gold and silk, Emperor Hongzhi criticized the report on the spot for being untrue.
It's not a big deal if the report is untrue, the emperor doesn't believe it, and you don't need to report the crime.
Don't even think about taking a break from work at home.
The two patriarchs went home to rest for an afternoon before being called back to the DPRK to do business as usual. As for Cui Xie, who was accused of three major crimes in a row, he naturally had to be suspended due to guilt, and he went home to plead guilty and wait for the emperor to deal with it.
Li Dongyang was worried about his family, came to see him on horseback, and gave him a copy of the original bullet so that he could be mentally prepared.
He looked at the words "Cui's" and "illegitimate daughter" on the paper, his mind went blank, his right hand was clenched tightly, and his short nails almost pierced the palm of his hand.
This time, it was Li Xueshi's turn to comfort him: "It's just a matter of impeachment, which is not uncommon. A few days ago, Jiang, a student of the Imperial College, impeached us cabinet scholars for ruling the state and blocking the way of speech? Liu Shoufu still humbly accepted the advice, and personally wrote a book to persuade him to go back to study and serve the court in the future..."
Li Dongyang persuaded and persuaded him, when suddenly he saw the student staring at the last bullet of the bullet, his face flushed red, and blood seemed to drip from the corners of his eyes, he quickly patted his shoulder and woke him up from the demon barrier: "You don't have to worry, The emperor has always known your character, and he has ordered the prefectural court to thoroughly investigate the origin of the rumor, and sooner or later, he will give you justice."
Cui Xie endured and endured, and let the dirty breath in his chest come out, and whispered: "I have a clear conscience about Cui Meiren. It's just that I wasn't careful enough when I published the book, and even the teachers and seniors were impeached. But there are rules for self-defense, so the teacher doesn't have to worry."
Li Dongyang shook his head and said with a wry smile: "The first item in the Huajie matter is to play that you are good at adding frontier military exploits to Jinyiwei's head. I wrote all of this, and I should have implicated you."
Cui Xie hated: "How can you blame the teacher? The story of Jin Yiwei was written about fighting Japanese pirates and flattening Japan, and it was not something that I had in Ming Dynasty, and now the Beiman I painted is not a Tartar. This is something that can be seen at a glance. What Nahua means in the matter is that I deliberately please and make friends with Jin Yiwei!"
He was deliberately trying to please and make friends with Xie Ying, who knew Jin Yiwei, so what
Even if everyone in the world knew about his thoughts, he would not back down, would not change Jin Yiwei, and would resign if it was a big deal.
After resigning, he can go out to fight and travel with their brother Ying!
There was a stubborn flame in Cui Xie's eyes, and he lowered his head and said to Li Dongyang: "Teacher, don't worry, I made this matter, and I will take it upon myself!"
Li Dongyang glanced at him worriedly and sighed: "It's okay, you should rest first. In fact, most of these sparse performances are chaotic and untenable things. After you settle down and write the rhetoric, it is the Sheng Tianzi, will not wrong you."
Cui Xie promised Li Dongyang away.
Teacher Li left with the front foot, and Xie Ying knocked on the door of his house with the back foot, and said worriedly: "Today, there is a Huke impeaching you and me for Zhonghua Chang, Mr. Cui, we need to discuss this matter and come up with a countermeasure!"
Cui Xie also looked at him with a frown, and ordered his family to bring tea and snacks, and then he cleaned the yard and closed the courtyard, not allowing anyone to eavesdrop on the master's important affairs.
There are only a few people in the family, and it is very convenient to clear the venue. After everyone was clean, Xie Ying took a step forward, grabbed his shoulders and asked, "How are you, didn't you make that seal mad?"
Almost pissed off.
He even made up a daughter for him. If it wasn't for Xie Ying's generosity and gentleness, the two of them would have had a marriage crisis now!
Cui Xie grabbed his hand and said eagerly, "I really don't have any daughters out there. I don't know who made up this kind of thing to slander me! There are no Cui Meiren in this world. Brother Ying, you must believe me—"
Xie Ying's lips pursed slightly, but she shook her head deliberately: "I believe you and Cui Meiren have no children, but how come there is no Cui Meiren in this world?" With his arms, he hugged Cui Xie by the waist and supported his legs. Bumping up, he said with a smile, "Isn't Cui Meiren in my arms?"
The restless breath in Cui Xie's chest calmed down suddenly, and he didn't feel helpless when his waistcoat was removed, but felt a little embarrassed, touched his earlobe and said, "You, you know."
How can you not know.
It's just that Cui Xie didn't like it, and Xie Ying never mentioned the name. He sat at the table with Cui Xie in his arms, and said with a smile, "I watched you grow up since I was a child, and my thoughts were all on you, so I guessed it, others naturally don't know."
If I had known that it would be passed down like this, I might as well admit that I am Cui Meiren. At least no one could be so lame that he thought he was a woman disguising as a man, and even gave him an illegitimate daughter...
Cui Xie raised his hand to cover his face, not wanting to see anyone.
Xie Ying smiled slightly, but the smile disappeared quickly, and said with a bit of worry: "This time Huachang impeached you for crediting Jinyiwei for the credit of the Bian army, and I will also plead guilty. This time ,so I… "
"Are you going to ask the order to go to the border gate? Which army and which border town are you transferred to?"
Cui Xie said these words for him, Xie Ying put his finger on his lips and sighed: "I really want to go to the border, but I have thought about it many times, but I still can't bear you. I will ask Jin Yiwei to command the same person tomorrow. If you know your identity and go to the army, if your majesty agrees, that's all, if you don't agree..."
If he doesn't agree, he would rather stay in the capital to be a ceremonial guard and handle cases, and he doesn't want the two to be separated.
The next day, Xie Ying preemptively sent a letter of guilt. In his memorial, he said that Jinyiwei had always kept his duty, served the emperor diligently, inspected inside and outside the capital, and never had any other thoughts. Hearing that Huajie claimed that Jin Yiwei wanted to take credit for the frontier army to show himself Set of stories within the land.
He couldn't guess what Hua had meant in the matter, and he didn't want Cui Xueshi to be framed for their Jinyiwei, so he could only ask the emperor's favor to go to the border to kill the enemy to atone for his sins and serve the court.
Emperor Hongzhi looked at the memorial and sighed: "Xie Tongzhi is really a sincere person, and he wants to go deep into the grasslands to find the royal court of the Tartars just like the painting in the book."
However, Xie Ying could ask for the decree, but the emperor could not agree. He hadn't mixed the comics with reality, the desert was full of dust, and he couldn't even find water, and the grasslands were full of dangers. Xie Zhenfu and 14,000 households in the comics were all scattered, and he couldn't let Daming's loyal ministers easily get into danger.
That's not called war, it's called death.
"It just so happens that the queen wants me to ask people to take care of the two uncles. Xie Ying asked him to go to Shanhaiguan to protect the two uncles." Emperor Hongzhi rubbed his eyebrows and ordered. Said: "Copy one more copy of this memorial, and put it back in the will of rebuking Hua Chang, and let him see for himself what kind of loyal soldiers he impeached."
I turned this memorial over, but it was the Dali Temple Prime Minister Guo Yong and the head of the household department Tang Ning who jointly signed Cui Xie's innocence and never had an affair with a woman surnamed Cui to have a daughter.
Jin Fu, the eunuch holding a pen, said in surprise: "These two adults are not usually close to Cui Xueshi, how can they be so sure that he is innocent?"
Eunuch Gao snorted coldly and scolded in a low voice: "I still need to get close to Fang Zhi? I also know that Cui Xueshi is innocent. He didn't get married because of his grandfather and brother. Now that his father passed away, he really wanted to get married and separated from his younger brothers. Don't you have a family? With his identity, who can't marry a lady, and still have an affair with a woman with an infamous reputation and a young age?"
Emperor Hongzhi listened to their discussion, and he agreed with him in his heart, and continued to read the memorial.
There are indeed many people who defend Cui Xie: there are court elders and Hanlin scholars who testify that he did not form a party for personal gain, and that he communicates with others for the purpose of compiling books; some Qian'an fellows prove that Cui Meiren is a non-existent and that he is framed by others. Yes; there is an analysis of the background of the comic strip in the Tang Dynasty, the war in the painting is different from the reality, and it is believed that what Hua Chang played is false...
It was Cui Xie's own debate, word by word, refuting Hua Chang's impeachment one by one.
Whether he usually compiles memorabilia or conference codes, the words are simple and simple, but it was only this time when the real fire broke out that he reproduced the flowing and flowing sentences like rivers in the laboratory.
The first thing he refuted was Hua Chang's impeachment against him for forming a party for selfishness. He asked Hua Chang directly: He was a Jinshi in the ninth year of Hongzhi. At that time, Ju Anzhai's imperial examination notes, Jinshi experience, and question bank series were sold all over the country. Haven't seen it? How could he not know that the people involved in the compilation were all officials from the Hanlin Academy and the Imperial Academy? How could he not know that the editor-in-chief of the imperial examination series was Cui Xie
The editor-in-chief has contacts with the editor, and the study room pays the editor a manuscript fee. Is this also considered a party for personal gain
Then there is the theory that he personally runs Ju'anzhai and instructs people to make up the story of Jinyiwei to snatch the military merits of the frontier army, which is completely nonsense!
Jin Yiwei's story never mentioned that they were related to the recent border victory, and they will not take this credit in the future! On the contrary, neither the court nor the common people will forget the exploits of the frontier soldiers. The two national uncles went to the border the day before yesterday in order to record the real border wars and battlefield heroes, and they will be assembled into a book in the future, so that their names will be passed down to future generations.
In the end, he turned his pen and begged the emperor: Hua Changping made up romantic affairs and slandered his reputation, he did not want to be with such villains in the court, and begged the emperor to allow him to serve.
