In the Yongzheng Dynasty, Zhang Tingyu accidentally bumped into his younger brother Zhang Tinglu and the three brothers when they hooked up, and they were really surprised (the Qing Dynasty had zuxun princes who were not allowed to make friends with foreign ministers, and Zhang Tinglu's move was not too ostentatious)
Zhang Tingyu handed the sign, did not rush to enter, stomped two steps on the frozen ground, stretched out to breathe a breath of clear air, his heart was much refreshed, he was about to go in, but he saw four glass palace lights in the door, and he came closer, and when he looked closely, it was his cousin Zhang Tinglu who was guided out by the eunuch. Zhang Tingyu couldn't help but feel a little sad, so early in the morning, what did Ting Lu do when he entered the Great Interior? This is forbidden! Just as he was about to ask, he saw that there was another person beside Zhang Tinglu, Zhang Tingyu couldn't help but be surprised, and took two steps quickly and said: "Third Master, you are early!" Tingyu please be at peace! "Say lay down a thousand children."
The so-called "Three Masters" are the three brothers of the current new Lord Yongzheng Emperor. Yongzheng gave birth to a total of eight sons during the Kangxi period, and the eldest son, Honghui, was born in the thirty-third year of Kangxi, and had already sealed the shells, and at the age of ten, he gave birth to a flower and died. There was also a son, Hongpan, who had a nameless fever at the age of two, and died, and he didn't even have time to talk about his teeth. The real "second master" is called Hongyi, who also died at the age of ten. Kangxi fifty-nine years and sixty years of successive birth of the two sons have not been raised, this "third master" is actually the oldest brother around Yongzheng, this year just turned twenty years old, out of a table of talents, guanyu-like face with a pair of almond eyes, black ink-stained crescent moon eyebrows slightly uplifted, with a sense of heroism, only the cheeks next to the cheekbones slightly sunken and dark, slightly broken. Seeing Zhang Tingyu giving himself a salute, Hongshi rushed forward to support himself with both hands, smiled and groaned, and said, "You are an old minister of the two dynasties, riding a horse in the Forbidden City, and a person who cannot understand the sword of the Golden Palace, how can I afford it?" "Holding hands and asking for warmth, it seems unusually intimate. Zhang Tingyu looked back and smiled and asked, "Ting Lu, why did you come in?" Still walking side by side with the Third Master? ”
"Tingyu, don't blame him, I invited him to come." Hiroshi smiled busily, "Yesterday the emperor went to Yuqing Palace to check his homework and said that my handwriting was awkward. He also said that among the ministers, only Ting Lu's words could be seen. You also know his old man's temper, the next time I don't look good, I will have to kneel, so please ask Ting Lu to come in, give me the school pen edge, leave a copy for me to draw. Zhang Tinglu also said with a smile: "I knew that when I met the sixth brother, I was busy writing two out, but Keke'er met!" ”
Zhang Tingyu nodded, "Even if it is the third master's name, it is not a big mistake." The third master is a golden branch and jade leaf, Yude Chunhua, it is the time to do learning. The fourth master is thirteen years old, the fifth master is twelve years old, they are still young, and they all look at you! This word is taken literally, no matter which sentence is praise, but together it is to persuade Honghong, to follow the rules and set an example, Zhang Tinglu can not help but admire his brother's set of courtiers. Hiroshi smiled and said, "I understand what you mean, you are also the title of Prince Taifu, and you are also my master!" Go ahead, Viva Grandpa is already waiting for you! Zhang Tingyu hurriedly agreed, and then told Zhang Tinglu to run errands and not to cause trouble." I'm busy for a while, I don't have time to talk, drive you into the dragon gate of the tribute courtyard, I will definitely send you. "That's how we hurried in.
——Excerpt from "Yongzheng Dynasty"
Facts have proved that Hongshi made good friends with Zhang Tinglu really did not have a good heart, and Zhang Tinglu was successfully pulled into the water by Hongshi to cheat in the science field.
Several servants looked at each other with trepidation, trembled and agreed, looked up at this handsome and resolute young deputy chief examiner, and saw that he had an unquestionable look on his face, so he had to go down and drag the "ghost". Zhang Tinglu has always been indispensable to these things, he was thinking about the several people who had specially asked him to take care of when he was thinking about the Three Brothers, and he was afraid of being inspected by this stunned deputy lord of Qingqing, and yang Mingshi suddenly came to such a set, and he couldn't help but be stunned, and when he looked at the eighteen-room examiner, he also looked at each other. As the crowd was ignoring them, a few servants had already put the two paper-tied straw men—one rich and gentle with a smile on his face, and the other with green fangs and fierce horror—that is, the two ghosts of 'enmity' to the court. When Yang Ming "snapped" the wood, he suddenly became angry, stepped down from the public case, and paced around the two ghosts, but his eyes swept towards the eighteen-room examiner. Which of those examiners did not have a "ghost" in their hearts? Seeing this cold and angry gaze sweeping over, everyone's hearts suddenly jumped, but when they heard Yang Mingshi sneering, they said, "Such a glamorous ray can actually be consumed here!" 'Well', who hasn't received it? Who hasn't had a 'grudge'? Late do not report early, but want to report at this time? In what matter can not be reported, but to exert obscenity at the national talent ceremony? I have been taught to read the books of the sages since I was tied up, and I have no words for the Son of God, and I do not care about the existence of the Six Hehes, where the Dao is, will evil spirits be allowed to run rampant? He stared contemptuously at the two paper ghosts and coldly commanded, "Drag it down and break it!" ”
A few servants panicked and agreed, dragging the paper ghost down. The resident deacon of the Gongyuan believed in this the most, and busied himself with beating Qian'er: "Your Honor... He looked at Yang Mingshi's cold face, and the words under his head did not come out.
"What do you want?"
"To... retribution! ”
Later, when the subject fraud case occurred, Zhang Tinglu was beheaded by Yongzheng and wrote seven "miserable" words in a row, which made Zhang Tingyu deeply shocked.
Zhang Tingyu was very calm when he was old. Seeing that the doctors were also kneeling under the porch, it was expected that Yongzheng had not yet fallen, so he walked over and said, "You retreat." "Since bypassing the crowd, I have tended to the body of the empress dowager, who has just stopped in bed."
Empress Dowager Wu Yashi looked very serene, and her face was slightly flushed. Only the eyebrows were slightly furrowed, and the lips were slightly furrowed, as if they were saying something suddenly dead. She was not in a position among the forty or fifty palace concubines in the Xi Dynasty, and Zhang Tingyu hardly knew her for twenty years, but only after Yongzheng ascended to the pole did she see more. Remembering that this noble lady was waiting to be looked down before she was born, solemn and kind, and from time to time she also sent eunuchs to give her wife some objects, and yesterday she was still alive, saying that she wanted to ask Madame Zhang Tingyu to come in and accompany her to talk about Gu Ji'er's boredom, and also asked her daughter to "copy a few volumes of the Diamond Sutra for me", just like that, saying that she went, and suddenly went without squeaking, and suddenly she thought of her brother Zhang Tinglu, and she felt that her life was uncertain, and her fate was uncertain, and she was uncertain. Zhang Tingyu "mobilized" his feelings, and couldn't help but boil inside, trembling and performing three kneeling and nine prostrations, and cried out bitterly: "Empress Dowager Lafayette, you just went west?!" yes...... Ho ho..." He thought about his son Zhang Meiqing, who had been tortured to death by himself, and thought about Zhang Tinglu's seven bloody "miserable" words, and he couldn't suppress the tears rolling out like beads.
In addition to his sadness, Zhang Tingyu is more hateful, if it is not Hongshi's strangeness, his brother how to end up in this fate, but these Zhang Tingyu did not show it (only secretly remembering hatred in his heart),
Zhang Tingyudong Ming experienced vicissitudes in the world, naturally his heart was bright, he was a person who had tempered his fingers softly, naturally everything was not in shape, he took out his pocket watch and looked at it, and said to everyone: "The Third Master has important things to do, and tonight can't be discussed." All the elders who leave Beijing tomorrow and have something that must be done, then wait, and the rest of tomorrow will be calmly discussed. As soon as he gave up his hand, everyone resigned.
"Hengchen Xianggong," Hongshi followed Zhang Tingyu into the study, took the tea handed by the servant and held it in his hand, splitting the first sentence with a surprising sentence: "I am not a brother who loves to visit the door." This time, the fourth elder was poisoned by people in Henan province one after another, and almost died, but he escaped from difficulty and fled back to the capital, do you know? Zhang Tingyu just picked up the cup, the hot water splashed on his hand at once, when he was busy putting the tea tray, he stared at Hongshi deadly, inhaled a cold breath, and said: "Is there such a thing?!" Tian Wenjing actually did not play, all the way over the rolling list, not even mentioned! "That's for confidentiality." Hiroshi's voice was low and clear, "I don't know the details of the situation, lao Si du river took a thief boat, and swam upstream of the Tongwa ferry port and circled with the water bandits for nearly a day." Fishing people nearby saw it and reported it until Kaifeng Province. Kaifeng Province sent people to see, it was already the fourth day, at the Tongwa ferry port to fish out seven corpses, dressed in water ghost costumes, with knife wounds, just identified this water bandit is a leader called the Yellow Water Monster. The fourth elder Xu is secretly helped by a high person - because so many corpses have been salvaged in the water, and there are two corpses on the ship that are bandits, and the fourth elder is safe and sound! Tian Wenjing's courtesy came up, and I immediately ordered a film to find out the whereabouts of the old fourth, and then asked Li Fu to send Hongli back to Beijing. That's about it. ”
Zhang Tingyu had no words for a long time, and his heart was extremely unstable, of course, this was the big case of Tianzi No. 1, from Kangxi's first southern tour, Yang Qilong's conspiracy to shell the palace in KunluYuan, to the present decades, the world has been peaceful for a long time. Don't say the prince, it is an ordinary merchant who travels from north to south, and it is extremely rare for people to plunder and kill people and cross goods. When such a thing happened, he bore the brunt of being the prime minister and had a great responsibility. But at the same time, Zhang Tingyu had doubts in his heart: What does it mean that such a big thing, this elderly brother who is sitting in trouble, does not know that he will make a sound of his own, and then secretly dispose of it himself when he crosses the government? Li Fu and Tian Wenjing bordered each other, and the two of them were fighting a fiery lawsuit, and when Tian Wenjing was attacked on all sides, it happened that there was a murder of the crown prince in his realm. Thinking about it, Zhang Tingyu slowly breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Yin and Yang are not bandits and indulgences, but the responsibility of the prime minister." I was too careless. This matter should also be directly asked to the fourth master, and then the emperor will be played, or by the Punishment Department, or handed over to Li Wei, and the case must be solved within the time limit. ”
"I know this case for twelve days." Hiroshi shifted his fingers and let go of his hand, "This is not a decent thing - you know, the emperor implemented the new policy, and the government and the opposition criticized a lot." You have seen the copy of the newspaper, hunan, Huguang, Yunnan and Guizhou provinces have all been exposed. Bandits and traitors spread rumors to confuse people's hearts, some said that Taishan collapsed, some said that Taihu Lake flooded, some said that Allah the next world, some said earthquakes, some said that the comet appeared, in short, 'people have no way to go, the celestial police' and other words caused a storm. This kind of thing is rendered, and there may be some people who make up plays and sing about morality! When it comes to responsibility, I am even more responsible. But I don't want to alarm the imperial court, nor do I want to add chaos to Emperor Ama, because it is useless with the government! He took a sip of tea, stopped talking, and glanced at Zhang Tingyu from time to time, and Zhang Tingyu's tight heartstrings loosened. In any case, Hongshi's heart can be regarded as a thoughtful consideration of the heavens and the earth, the sun and the moon, both thinking of maintaining the overall situation, and thinking of the emperor's body and bones. Zhang Tingyu smiled relievedly and said, "Third Master, you have all wanted to complete the filial piety of government affairs." The slave is old and can't keep up with his grandfather's footsteps. Ye presided over Yun Songxuan this time, and several things were done convincingly. Huguang privately minted Yongzheng money case down, even Hunan grain prices have stabilized, Hangzhou spinners called the first criminal to take to learn about the Yungui copper mine owl head to show the public, I originally felt a little harsh, and then think about it or you are right. Sure enough, the miners were quiet and did not dare to stop. Not only did it kill fewer people, but the copper mine was more productive. Killing and making decisions, taking into account the overall situation when the incident occurs, they all think about everything, which is really good! ”
Zhang Tingyu has been a minister for decades, no matter the government and personnel of the dynasty, from the royal family to the brothers, down to the state and county officials, they all get along with each other with "balance", and no one is estranged, nor is he particularly close, and he usually believes in "ten thousand words are better than a silence", and has never praised anyone in such a series of articles. Hongshi couldn't help but hear the glow on his face, and immediately picked up his high hat and returned it, frowned and sighed deeply, and said, "I am a descendant of the younger generation, how many times have I seen the world?" You grew up watching me grow up, and you still don't know me? You are truly the pillar of the imperial court! Last time the emperor said that his arm hurt, I and the fourth elder hurried to ask for peace, his old man no longer looked like he was sick and painful, the emperor said, 'Zhang Tingyu is sick, he is the humerus of Yuan, and he is connected to the body and the heart!' We then understood that you were clear. You were made a count, and the Ministry of Rites said that you had no field merits and no local political achievements, which was difficult to phrase, and the emperor said, 'What field merits and local political achievements does Zhang Liang have?' Winning a decisive victory thousands of miles away is a feat. Zhang Hengchen is the sub-room of Yuan! 'Oh, by the way, this time the discussion of the virtuous and virtuous courtiers, the ceremonial ticket is intended to be the first place.' The emperor returned from Fengtian Zhu Pi, and Zhang Tingyu should not be like others. He is both a widow of the Founding Father and a good minister, who has a good beginning and an end, and should enter the Ten Philosophers Ancestral Hall and deserve to enjoy the sages such as Kong Mengcheng Zhu. Man, to do this step of yours, it is a glorious record of history! ”
He picked up the nice words and sent them one by one, but he forgot that Zhang Tingyu was an old prime minister with a deep city government, and it was too disreputable for a Qinghua prince Tianhuang Guiqing to hold a courtier like this. The way Hiroshi forgot to look at the way he laughed, and the smell of wine and meat in his mouth also made him unbearable. Only Qiang smiled and listened, and said: "'Good beginning' I can do justifiably, 'the whole end' still depends on the future." Do things in a down-to-earth manner. The size of the honor and name behind him is the endear of the Son of Heaven. This faint sentence immediately silenced Hongshi, and only a smile suddenly he returned to normal and changed the subject: "The emperor does not know when to return to Luang, and we have to prepare to take over the car." I was thinking about whether to personally go to Chengde to persuade the old man, such a hot day, just stop at the summer resort, and then return to Beijing after the autumn, and catch up with the approval of the autumn decision. The fourth old man came back, or he came to preside over Yun Songxuan, I want to walk away and evacuate the bones. ”
"The fourth master has just returned to Beijing, he is the minister of Chincha, and he must first see the above position of the emperor before he can talk about anything else." Zhang Tingyu realized that he understood Hongshi's intentions until now, and said with a smile: "You are also sitting on the order, and if you do not follow the will, you dare to hand over the messenger to someone else?" However, Li Fu's recital of impeaching Tian Wenjing and Tian Wenjing's recital have been sent to all departments for a few days, and it is important to quickly collect the opinions of the officials. When the emperor returned to Beijing, the first thing he had to ask about was the case. ”
Zhang Tingyu chose to strike a key blow at a critical time, so that Hongshi could not turn over,
Hongli smiled and said, "Hengchen Xianggong, you see, I know that this Chen Shiqi is about to cry for the people." Well, don't be sad, add two pounds of rice wine to each migrant worker on the river every day until the Qingming of March. The soup shed is up to you, okay? Chen Shiqian said thank you and withdrew. When Hongli remembered Hongshi, the smile on his face suddenly disappeared and asked, "Heng Chen, what happened to the third brother?" ”
"It was raised by the thirteenth master when he was dying, and the emperor did not say anything, but only said that the thirteenth master still held up three fingers until his death." Zhang Tingyu said, "These days Fang Bao has been doing this alone, last night he summoned Hongzhilai, the two of them talked secretly for half an hour, and called me in, and it is said that Hongshi performed the Evil Town Law to kill his father and brother, and even the monk Who died of Thunder Shock on the day of the Empress Dowager's birthday was also found out, and it was the Bahanglon Lama of the Mongolian Yellow Sect." Fourth Master, you know that I don't believe in these things, but then Tu Lichen raided Hongshi's home overnight, copied out many magic objects and famous instruments, and several volumes of evil scriptures, all of which were made by the White Lotus Sect. In the mansion, he also took a master surnamed Kuang, and copied from him several letters from the bandits on the rivers and lakes, with ambiguous words, smoked a few whips and also recruited, saying that he had set up an ambush in Hunan to murder the fourth master. The emperor fainted at that time... Things are just like this, and the East Window incident is out of control. A few of us also discussed the matter of Banzai when he was out on the river patrol, long keduo took the army into Changchun Garden without authorization, the whole night, no one slept..." He sighed and did not speak again, in fact, his brother Zhang Tinglu was killed for bribery, Hongshi asked for help beforehand, and afterwards he fell into the well to see death and did not save, last night he also spat out a pain. But at this moment, I felt that I had done more than this, and I felt some remorse in my heart, so I would no longer repeat it to Hongli. Hongli's eyes lit up as he listened, and he asked, "The emperor didn't say what to do?" Zhang Tingyu shook his head slightly, and said: "The emperor's last breath was very weak, and he said that he wanted to copy Sun Jiagan's recital and meditate, so we withdrew." Fourth Master, you know, the more the emperor is weaker, the more his temper is attacked..." The following words hindered the exit, so he stopped.
"I didn't expect the third brother to be so inhumane!" The anger in Hongli's eyes flickered for a moment, but the tone quickly turned unusually soft, "At this time, there are seven things and eight things, the emperor has a fire in his heart, we had better not speak at this time, wait for things to cool down, and it will be better to calmly say goodbye." ”
Zhang Tingyu didn't say a word, of course he understood Hongli's words, and he also agreed: don't save this Hongshi.
Ironically, Hongshi was locked up, and naively thought that Zhang Tingyu couldn't help him (this kind of mind was still willing to fight for the emperor),
Overnight, Hiroshi became a prisoner by The Prince. He was called in by his family, saying that there were adults who came to worship at night, and they went to the West Flower Hall to "receive" Tu Lichen. Without waiting for him to ask questions, Tu Lichen announced to him the Holy Order: "Go to the family property of Emperor Micha's third son, Hongshi, and temporarily imprison Hongshi." Without saying a word, Hongshi was sent by the nine-door governor yamen in a large car of eight people to a small courtyard that had been idle for many years in the west of the Fenghua Building of Changchun Garden. From the embroidered curtain tent, Baoding beast charcoal, a large group of handsome wives and eunuchs arched in the palace, suddenly fell into this cold and desolate earthen wall house, he woke up, that night's shocking scene was not a dream. He sat on the warm and baked mat with his knees in the mist, leaning against the wall and just pondering: What is wrong? However, his heart was like a mess of paste, and no matter what, he couldn't figure it out: Zhang Tinglu's case was dead and untested. With Zhang Tingyu's caution, there was no evidence, and he would never dare to suddenly raise it for many years. Roncodo certainly hated himself, but he had no evidence in his hands. He was nothing more than a captive mad dog, and who would believe him barking wildly? Long Keduo led his troops into Changchun Garden without authorization and searched the Forbidden City, all of which were ordered by Yun Yu to do it. Since Yun Yu was dead, and there was not even the last witness, how could he dare to bite his own steward Brother, who was on the ninth side? So, is it to hunt down and kill Hongli? Master Xie, who presided over this matter, had already extinguished his mouth, and even if he caught a few gangsters, could he condemn himself based on their vague confessions? Bahang Longxing Practiced Fa Wei Zhen Yongzheng, he originally disagreed, but later Master Kuang urged him to say: "No matter who the emperor's will hidden behind the plaque of the Qianqing Palace is passed on to, the third master is in Yunsongxuan and has the central machine pivot." As long as the incident is sudden and deliberate in the chaos, no one can replace you! "As a result, it was even more strange that a Mongolian living Buddha with great supernatural powers was photographed without a trace in the thunder earthquake and died on the banks of the Jinshui River!" ...... But Kuang Shichen had not been arrested, and he was still reading the manuscript in the study during the day, how could he report himself for no reason? ......
"Could it be that Tu Lichen hooked up with the Hong calendar and falsely passed on the Holy Will to create chaos?"
In fact, Zhang Tinglu did not know about Hongshi's secret sale of test questions, he was afraid of Hongshi's prestige to dare not make things bigger, with a fluke mentality wanted to plot this matter down, did not expect that this hesitation brought himself the disaster of killing,
"Lord Zhang," Yang Mingshi ignored Zhang Tinglu's expression, and analyzed with a deep sigh, "where did this test question leak?" From the imperial pen, sealed in the gold pot, sent directly to the tribute courtyard by the study, and densely lacquered with fish glue. And it was all leaked above the market, openly bought and sold in the building of the liquor store! It's incredible! What do you think, my lord? ”
"Ah! yes! Zhang Tinglu woke up from the shock, and felt that his back was wet and cold, and he was already sweating through his underwear. Thinking about it, when he glanced at Yang Ming, he wanted to stop talking, and this matter was revealed, it must be the hands and feet of the Three Brothers. Even with the big event that will cause the three brothers of Hongshi, Hongli, and Hongzhi to compete for the throne, the three brothers have always been in contact with Longkeduo from a mysterious point, Longkodo seems to be moving closer to the Eight Ye Yunyu, and the silk vines are constantly involving the number one figure of the Tianzi, and any one who raises his feet is taller than his own... Thinking that there is nothing to do, no matter what, first cover up and then say; because I swallowed a sigh, I was able to watch the heavens!" However, this matter is not a trivial matter, and I am afraid that even many Of the Heavenly Huang Noble Dragon Sons and Grandchildren are not known. Song YunGong, there are many people with miraculous abilities in the world, maybe some people have guessed the topic first; it is difficult to count the things that coincide by chance in the world, perhaps they are blindly guessed. If we don't stand alone, we will throw it out here, immediately shock the government and the opposition, affect the overall situation, and we must not be careless! Besides, showing the exam questions in the front, raising the hair fraud in the back, the first one, the two of us are burdened with a sea of blood, and the lives of the eighteen-room examiner are in it, and it is not appropriate to rush to raise the hair. ”
Yang Mingshi flashed a glance at Zhang Tinglu in surprise. All of Zhang Tinglu's opinions are reasonable, except that "we two have a stake" is beyond reason, and the main examiner raises the over-the-counter trading exam questions, which is a matter of course, what "stake" is it? Besides, what is "showing the exam questions in front, raising the fraud in the back" seems to lay the groundwork to frame yourself! This was a bit strange, and I thought of Zhang Tingyu, who is now the first assistant minister, and I don't know if it is the two of their brothers cheating? This young deputy chief who was warm and deep on the outside and extremely proud in his heart had a feeling of being insulted, his face suddenly turned red, and Ge Ge smiled and said, "On the day of the tribute, the two of us swore an oath to the Heavenly Covenant." This matter cannot be thought of human feelings, but of heavenly reason, and of being guilty of heaven, and praying for nothing! I will immediately ask the emperor to suspend the Enko exam, or immediately change the questions and retake the exam. This matter cannot be made from the 'maybe'. Maybe there are treacherous villains around the emperor! Maybe we have a treacherous giant beetle who accepts bribes in this exam and asks for money and does not want to die! Zhang Tinglu listened to these words, every sentence was insinuating, the words were all sharp blades, and he was ashamed and angry, and he felt that instead of covering up, it was better to attack and defend, because he also raised his face, hummed and said: "I am good for you, but you are not sparing, it seems that I Zhang someone has a ghost fetus!" If you worship the chapter, I will also hand over the fold, and the first one will join you! Yang Mingshi was furious, and Huo Di stood up and said, "You?? You join me? ”
Hongshi got to this point, according to Yongzheng, or Hongshi himself was too cruel and unreasonable,
He raised his voice in vain, "Can you count as a person?!" Pale on you a human skin! The lady has five luns: the son has relatives, the monarch has righteousness, the husband and wife are different, the elders and children are orderly, and the friends have letters - this is a mirror, you look at your own description, can there be half a lun and a lun? Zhang Tinglu was betrayed by your entrustment, the matter was exposed and sentenced to death, and you surrounded yuan all day without even saying a word of commutation. Something like you, doing evil and bad things is also disorderly, which person follows you and does not leave a hand? Who will do your job for you? ”
