Mr. Cui is really like a fire.
What Hua Chang played wasn't something that was hard to argue with, so he asked people to check it out, and he would just be innocent.
The emperor made it clear that the chariots and horses were going to be sidetracked, so to Cui Xie, he comforted him and advised him to stay in office.
Hua Chang was not satisfied.
The official has the right to hear and report matters. He found out that Cui Xie had behaved improperly. Shouldn't he impeach him? It is up to the judiciary whether they can find out the facts after impeachment, but they should be innocent in the matter!
Although the official position is low, the status is high, and the post with the big fist is written, and he walks in the capital without avoiding the cabinet ministers, how can he not impeach a bachelor
He not only wants to play, but also contacts his colleagues to find out the real evidence that he is illegal, and play hard!
Hua Chang went to Gu Qian, the censor who was in charge of investigating Cui Xie's personal operation of the bookstore, and asked him to investigate the matter impartially.
Gu Qian said with a bland face: "I was ordered to handle the case, so I can do whatever I want to investigate, it doesn't matter if he is a bachelor or a businessman. If Brother Wenguang suspects that I am reading a comic book, he will cover up the businessman who prints the comic strip. Impeach me together, and I'll wait for Jin Yiwei to come and ask."
Hua Chang said helplessly: "Why did I ever say that? I'm just worried that the study has a strong background and someone will hinder you from investigating."
Ju Anzhai did have a deep background, and the Metropolitan Prosecutor's Office wanted to investigate, and there were many clan members and nobles who sent posts, asking them to disturb the normal operation of the bookstore.
Everyone is still waiting to see what An Qianhu looks like when he wears a beard, how can he and Yao Qianhu pretend to be husband and wife, how can they stop printing? Running the study is not a big deal. If he finds out, at most, he should ask Cui Xueshi not to run the study himself, and just hand over the study to the servants, but they can't be delayed from reading books because of this!
Zuodu Censor Daishan has a collection of posts sent by the eunuchs, which can be used as a fan.
However, the Inspectorate is the mainstay of the imperial court, and it is the place where they cannot fall under the influence of the powerful.
Dai Zongxian was under pressure from many powerful and powerful people, and asked Gu Qian to seal up Ju Anzhai's account room, moved his family's account books and correspondence, and arrested his family's Shaodong Cui Qi, the shopkeeper, and the man. Go back to the Metropolitan Procuratorate to ask the case.
Ju'anzhai's voice is normal, saying that the shop is owned by Cui Qi and his son, and it is run by the shopkeeper. Although Cui Diandong was the adopted son of Cui Xueshi's family in the past, he had already been put in place in Qian'an.
Cui Xie never appeared in Juanzhai for a day, and no matter how they managed, they just collected manuscripts and let them print books. However, it is also common for literati to find a bookstore to print their own books, which has nothing to do with personal management.
If they could not get a confession, the Metropolitan Procuratorate had no choice but to release the witness from the Ning family and find an accountant to check account transactions.
Cui Qi and the shopkeeper Ji went home in panic and asked Cui Xie to discuss how to deal with it—they did record the money for Cui Xie in their account books. I wrote it for the Cui family, how can I explain it then
Cui Xie's rumors that Cui Mei and illegitimate daughters are called Cui Mei and illegitimate daughters have forced them to come to their senses, and said lightly, "You don't have to worry about me, our family has not formed a party for personal gain, and there is no illegal bribery. Is there anything you dare not see?"
The boss behind Cui calmly put the privately written "Understanding Mr. Shuixi", "Comments on the Ten Famous Masters of the Hanlin Academy", "Shouren Gezhu's Photo Album", "Tang Bohu's Autumn Fragrance", and "Under the Jinyi: The Years I Pursued Jinyiwei". Packed it into a box, locked it together with the wedding photos and commemorative photos that he had painted in bits and pieces, and sent it to Xie Ying's house for safekeeping.
What if he calls someone to raid the house
Everyone is a decent person, and these things cannot be revealed by outsiders.
Carrying dozens of pounds of boxes, he ran to Xie Ying's house in the middle of the night and entrusted him with the funeral. Xie Ying saw that he was holding the box and had nowhere to hide, so he couldn't help laughing a few times, then took it and stuffed it into the dark cellar under his own Buddhist altar, comforting: "Wherever they can raid the house, that's when they found the shop. It's yours, the emperor can at most rebuke a few words, and news has come out in the palace."
Then he doesn't care, anyway, if someone is impeached, he will not go to work!
He made another plea for sin, and he stayed at home to prepare luggage for Xie Ying. He didn't need to prepare clothes, so he asked people to make fried oil tea noodles, dried roasted meat, dried vegetables and fruits, and pot helmets as dry food; soaked mint and borneol in alcohol as toilet water; he also drew a 3D design of our army's artifact shovel, and called him Find a craftsman who knows how to strike a sword and build a few out of good steel.
If you can't make pure steel, just add a piece of steel to the side edge, and the effect should be fine.
Xie Ying looked at the unremarkable picture in the painting, how it looked like a green-headed steel shovel, and asked him with a complicated expression: "Will soldiers use such weapons hundreds of years later? Do they also set up military camps?"
Don't underestimate our shovel, this is an artifact that can dig ground, chop people and cook! That is to say, the Daming iron and steel industry is not developed, and it is not possible to make a folding engineer shovel. It can only build an old-fashioned shovel. In the second and third generations, this shovel is more powerful than the Swiss Army Knife.
Cui Xie proudly told him the benefits of the shovel, and gave him the map of China he had drawn in the offices of various pornographic films. The national boundaries and provinces on the map are definitely different from the map of the Ming Dynasty, but the shape of the mountains and the general distribution of rivers are still the same.
The scales of maps in the Ming Dynasty are not exactly the same. There are often cases where the places drawn on the map are almost the same size, but in fact they are very different. And the scale lines and contour lines on modern maps are artifacts. If you can look at the map, you can see the topography, but if you can't look at it... If you send the map out, you don't have to worry about it.
Cui Xie was so busy with Xie Ying's delivery that he didn't pay attention to the fact that Ju Anzhai's account had been checked by the Superintendent's Office, and he confirmed that his family did have money exchanges with Ju Anzhai, and Ju Anzhai would give him a sum of money every year. It accounted for 30% of the net profit that year.
The whereabouts of Ju'anzhai’s silver coins are clear, including money for buying wood, paint, and paper, money for shopkeepers and shopkeepers, and money for painters, engravers, printers, and handymen. Every year, the books are printed according to the difference. , There are different authors who have written their brushes... Only the money given to Cui Fu has not written the reason and has not changed, and has been sent every year.
Giving Shi Zhonghuachang played again and again, doubting his relationship with Ju Anzhai.
If the two families have nothing to do with each other, why send money to him every year? If it weren't for him being the owner behind this shop, it must be the shop who used money to bribe him and beg him for protection!
Emperor Hongzhi glanced at the dazzling figures in the memorial, and saw the records of thousands and tens of thousands of taels per year marked "Cui House" at the end, and said in surprise: "Why did you give so much money? I thought that Mr. Cui's family was poor, see It wasn't like that."
The emperor had always thought that Cui Xie was a clean, honest, pedantic person who didn't know how to run a business and needed to take care of himself, but suddenly found that he had a lot of income and there was still a little psychological gap. The eunuch who was serving in the hall watched the change in the emperor's face, fearing that he would annoy Cui Xie and shut down Ju Anzhai, so he was busy defending him: "Perhaps the owner of Ju Anzhai borrowed money from him when he opened the shop, but now If you make money, you should also give him a share."
Jin Gonggong also said: "Not only the cadres, the imperial examination books in Ju Anzhai and the daily agricultural classics are not all edited by Master Cui? The servant heard that a book is going to be compiled in the folk bookstore, whether it is sold or not. , I also have to give the editor-in-chief 100 taels of silver for food and drink, not to mention that Master Cui is the one who is waiting to be talked about in front of the royal family. He was a famous talent with five yuan and the first, and any bookstore would have to give him a high level of polish."
A ray of light flashed in Eunuch Gao's eyes, he stepped forward and bowed to the emperor, and said in a fair way: "My servant understands, the money must be a pen. There are hundreds of paintings, how can you give him more brushes!"
What
What for hundreds of paintings a month
Isn't he an editor-in-chief, why does he still bring paintings
The emperor didn't care how much money he received from Ju'anzhai, and asked in surprise: "He drew manuscripts for Ju'anzhai? Could it be that Mr. Cui can still draw... draw..."
Yes, he can draw.
The agricultural articles he wrote in Qian'an included pictures. After entering the palace, he also painted a few pictures. The paintings were lifelike, and they really matched the style of Ju Anzhai's comic strips. It’s just that the techniques of painting people and objects are different, and it’s not like drawing flowers and plants can draw people. Cui Xueshi never said that he could draw people, and he never thought about it.
The emperor remembered the old things and nodded slightly. Eunuch Gao said, "Cui Xueshi's painting skills are superb, beyond the reach of others, but he was rumored when he was young, and he never dared to show it. Your Majesty doesn't believe it, you can take the two pictures of immortals congratulating him that the late emperor kept. Take a look—that is, it was painted by Cui Xueshi, and it was just entrusted by someone else’s name.”
As soon as he mentioned the immortal pictures of the late emperor, the emperor immediately thought of the "Antian Conference" and "The Immortals Celebrating Longevity" that were like the real immortal palace. The immortals inside have different clothes and appearances. They are immortal and splendid. They are different from ordinary immortal paintings. On the contrary, they look like someone who has really seen the banquet in the sky, and has described that scene into the painting.
If it was painted by Mr. Cui... Then it is no wonder that the father-in-law loves to say that he has an immortal encounter! The beauty and bearing of the gods in the painting, how can those imitated paintings be imitated!
The emperor's heart was turbulent, and he immediately asked people to take a picture and look at it. While waiting for the person to come back, he also asked with concern: "Is Mr. Cui's rumor about that Cui Meiren at that time? Who did it come from? It's really hateful."
Eunuch Gao also complained for him: "Isn't it true! At that time, Cui Xueshi was only fourteen or fifteen years old, and he was weak and handsome in life. There was such a fragrant rumor about Cui Meiren in the village. Would he still dare to paint? It's just afraid. Let people see it and drag him and Cui Meiren together..."
The emperor said angrily: "How frivolous this is, to actually assign a sage disciple to be a Cui Meiren! No wonder Guo and Tang's Qing family only said that they would guarantee his innocence when they defended Mr. Cui, and did not say anything else. It turned out to be like this. They can't bear to tell the slanderous rumours! Compared to this, those arranging his own personal interests are stronger than those vicious rumours..."
Eunuch Gao was speechless, trying to explain that he didn't mean that. However, Emperor Hongzhi had ordered people to draw up a decree to reprimand the Ducha Yuan, and asked them why they didn't play it early after hearing the rumors that were unfavorable to the ministers in the court, and sent people to quell the matter.
Hua Chang's report was false, his impeachment was overdone, he downgraded Nanjing, and don't serve as an employee of the Ministry of Labor; the case of Ju Anzhai doesn't need to be tried, and don't ask Cui Xie to come forward to defend himself. Here it is.
The oral decree must first be sent to the imperial court to be drafted by the people in the central book, and then sent to the patriarchs for review.
When this decree was sent to the cabinet, Mr. Li was overjoyed when he saw it, and asked the servant with a smile, "Is this what Your Majesty means? Your Majesty has made a clear judgment, and the minister, Cui Xie, is grateful."
The internal official said with a complicated expression: "Elder Ge, go back and comfort Cui Xueshi. He was wronged at the beginning, the emperor knew it, and told him to just paint with peace of mind. The emperor doesn't believe a word of the rumors outside. ."
Why is it related to his ability to paint again
Liu, Li, and Xie Ge were all a little strange, but Cheng Xuesi heard about it for the first time, and said in amazement, "He Zhong can also paint? Which school did you study? I've never seen this before. I have to ask him to draw a picture and see."
The Cui Meiren School of school.
Li Xueshi couldn't remember what new name Tang Bohu had given to the school, so he said, "It's the one that is fashionable in Beijing, the Ju'anzhai school."
Cheng Xue Shi snorted, and replied smoothly: "It's the Cui Meiren faction..."
He suddenly felt that something was wrong, pursed his lips, and swallowed the following words. The inner servant who passed the decree also looked at him deeply, shook his head and said: "Cheng Ge will not mention these three words in the future, this name is too frivolous and damages people's reputation. I have to call the Metropolitan Procuratorate to conduct a strict investigation."
The eunuch spoke softly, his voice lowered slightly, as if he was afraid that others would hear him. Cheng Minzheng's heartbeat also seemed to be clenching lightly with a hand. He didn't dare to jump too hard, and he didn't dare to breathe too hard. His eyes moved to Li Dongyang's face little by little.
Old Li Ge's eyes were vicissitudes, and his face was blank.
It was Liu Shoufu who made a decision, and immediately asked the servants to send this oracle to the Metropolitan Court as soon as possible, and told them not to investigate Cui Xie's business affairs.
However, this memorial came too late after all. After Gu Yushi checked the accounts, he ordered someone to invite Cui Xie to the court. Cui Xie has been completely bearish about his career these days, and he has also weighed which rumors are more harmful. He simply took a willow trunk and took a car to the outside of the courthouse. He threw the box to the ground.
With a bang, the dust splashed, and the threshold of the second hall of the Ducha Yuan trembled slightly. The apex of Gu Yushi, the Yushi in the academy, and the apex of the work also trembled slightly, and they secretly watched the man who suddenly turned into a strong man. Master Choi.
Not only has his strength changed, but his attitude has also changed, and he is no longer the gentle scholar who is kind to others.
After Gu Yushi was ascended to the hall, he opened the box that the officers couldn't carry, put one hand behind his back, bent down and picked up a stack of manuscript papers, and said lightly, "Your Excellency didn't ask me how I got so much in Anzhai. Silver? This is the reason. These drafts are drawn by me in cooperation with the authors' manuscripts. There are sketches and detailed drawings, but for each one, I first set the screen layout before handing it over to others to refine it. ."
He raised his hand to call someone to take the manuscript, and said lightly, "Give it to Lord Gu. Lord, take a look at my portraitist manuscript, is it worth so much brushing?"
Gu Qian took over the sketch and recognized at a glance that it was "The Fortress of Jinyiwei", which was just released last month. This is a well-drawn line draft. There are faint pencil lines on the paper, which are half hidden behind the ink lines, occasionally revealing a little, which is not conspicuous, but makes the lines more flexible and more varied.
Gu Qian was someone who knew how to paint, so he couldn't help cheering: "Okay! This really captures the essence of Cui Meiren!"
Cui Xie's heart beat a few beats faster, and he snorted coldly in the hall: "What is Cui Meiren? This is a new faction of Hanlin compiling Tang Yin's history, called the portrait school!"
Gu Qian was stunned for a moment, but Cui Xie cupped his hands in the direction of Miyagi and asked loudly, "Your Majesty Xiangri has scolded Zhonghuachang for not listening to the rumors and linking me with the Cui family. Master Gu is doing this knowingly. , ruin my reputation?"
