Wang Wenyan, an important adviser to the Donglin Party, laughed: "What Zuo Gong said is very true. It is inevitable that you will be hated by Your Majesty directly impeaching the thief. It is better to cut off his wings first!"

"How can I explain this?"

Zuo Guangdou asked because of this.

Wang Wenyan continued: "Now Your Majesty intends to reuse Xu Guangqi and Sun Chengzong. Both of them are dissatisfied with Fang Congzhe, so it is not difficult to persuade these two people to participate in the "destroy Fang" matter in the future. There are also people in the field of persuasion, so Fang Congzhe is not worried about not having a chance in the future, but what we need to get rid of is not Fang Congzhe but Xiong Tingbi."

"Xiang Tingbi, the governor of Liaodong?"

Wei Dazhong also asked curiously.

Wang Wenyan nodded calmly and confidently: "That's right, it's Xiong Tingbi. This man has not made any contribution to Liaodong. He has not yet wiped out the Eastern Captains. He is extremely incompetent! His Majesty is young and mature, and he is determined to govern, so he naturally cannot delay the Liao incident. And Xiong Tingbi's ability to serve as Liaodong's governor is all due to Fang Congzhe's support!

Therefore, in Wang's opinion, it is better to impeach Xiong Tingbi first because he was unable to delay the Liao incident, and then recommend that my Donglin competent minister be the Liaodong minister. Once the capable minister succeeds to the Liaodong minister and recovers the lost territory, he will inevitably be a new prince in the court, and appreciate it for His Majesty who hopes to revive. Then this person impeached Fang Congzhe. In addition, our censors and Sun Xu and others impeach them together, Fang Congzhe will definitely be surrounded by enemies and no one can protect them!"

After hearing this, Zuo Guangdou nodded: "Yang Gong (Yang Lian) has always been dissatisfied with Xiong Tingbi's behavior of blindly consuming money and grain and not leaving the city. If someone can do it more, it will be beneficial to the country!"

Wei Dazhong also said: "There are many people in the court who are dissatisfied with Xiong Tingbi, such as Yao Zongwen, Liu Guojin, Gu Qing, Feng Sanyuan, Wei Yingjia, Guo?, etc. It is not difficult to impeach Xiong Tingbi!"

Wang Wenyan looked at Wei Dazhong and laughed: "I heard that Duke Wei and Feng Sanyuan had a close personal relationship and were both clerks with Wei Yingjia. I wonder if I could recommend him to Wang! As long as Wang can convince these two dukes to impeach Xiong Tingbi and ask Xiong Tingbi to leave, the impeachment of Fang Congzhe in the future will be successful! Once Fang Congzhe leaves, the day when Duke Wei returns to the court is expected!"

Because this matter was related to his career interests, Wei Dazhong agreed.

...

Liu Mansion.

The second assistant to the cabinet, Liu Yiyi, was holding a teacup and sending it to the corner of his mouth. He touched his thighs, and then gave a wink to a maid. The maid hurriedly knelt in front of Liu Yiyi's knees and pounded Liu Yiyi's legs with a beauty hammer.

At this time, Liu Yiyin slowly asked Wang Wenyan opposite him: "How is the matter done?"

Wang Wenyan, half-sitting on the chair, stood up, half-bent, and said with a flattering smile: "Don't worry, the master of the cabinet, it has been done. The censor Feng Sanyuanhui first submitted a memorial to impeach Xiong Tingbi to delay the war in Liaodong, and then Wei Yingjiahui followed suit to the minister. These two people are not the master of the cabinet, but Ye Xianggao's disciple. Your Majesty will not arouse doubts."

After hearing this, Liu Yiying nodded: "I am also considering the country of the Ming Dynasty. Xiong Tingbi has been training the army and laboring the people in Liaodong. He only knows to ask for money from the court, but his achievements have not been made. It is really unreasonable. He can afford to delay it, but the court cannot afford to delay it!"

At this time.

Fan Yuqing, who was sitting under Wang Wenyan, stood up with a smile: "We all know that the master of the court has always taken the master as a model. My master has always regarded the master of the court as a model and wants to imitate the master of the court to seek peace for the country. Once Xiong Tingbi resigns, it must be Yuan Yingtai and Yuan Gong as the new strategy. At that time, will the master of the governor be taken over by my master? I don't know how much money is needed, so please let the master of the court say it clearly."

"You have to ask Mr. Wang. He knows Wang An, the inner minister, and is good to the gentlemen of Donglin. He will know how much money he wants."

Liu Yiyin kicked the ball to Wang Wenyan.

Wang Wenyan really calculated carefully: "Apart from the Ge Lao, if you have to deal with it, you will have to pay 30,000 taels!"

"Ah! Is there a little more, Mr. Wang?"

Fan Yuqing started bargaining.

"Your master Wang Huazhen, who was in office as the right senator of Liaodong, and his uncle Fan Yongdou, should have earned a lot of money for Jiannu. He should have earned no money. If you can't bear to give up the 30,000 taels of silver, then don't blame us for revealing this."

Wang Wenyan directly threatened him.

Fan Yuqi said embarrassedly: "Mr. Wang doesn't know that after Xiong Tingbi took office, he strictly investigated smuggling, and the money and grain were sent directly to soldiers and refugees, so that our master and the generals of Liao land greatly reduced their oil and water. Now, it has become a problem to send filial piety silver to Beijing every year. I really can't afford much more money. But don't worry, if Xiong Tingbi can really be brought down and fulfill the wishes of our civil and military officials in Liao land, we will definitely offer 50,000 taels of silver in the future! But can we only give out 10,000 taels now?"

Wang Wenyan glanced at Liu Yiyan.

Liu Yiying nodded.

Wang Wenyan then replied: "Yes! Don't blame the debt at that time. You have to know that if we can let Xiong Tingbi down, we can also let him go up."

"I understand! How can the young one not understand!"

Fan Yuqi laughed.

Liu Yiying said at this time: "Okay, Fan Yuqi, go back, and tell your master by the way that you are serious in making more meritorious deeds. Don't just know how to get money and give away money! You Shanxi merchants are the same. You should know the right position. Don't raise the enemy with the generals of Liaodong to the point of changing dynasties. At that time, what's bad is not my reputation, but your own reputation!"

"I remember the little one, I will leave now!"

Fan Yuqi left Liu Yiyin's place.

Wang Wenyan looked at Liu Yiyin and took out a ticket: "Gei Master, this is 5,000 taels of silver. Feng Sanyuan and the others wanted to move their positions. At that time, the temple (Wanli) was lazy and left many vacancies in Beijing. I wonder if the Gei Master could let them go?"

Liu Yiyin didn't look at the number of votes, but said: "There are still missing officials in Taichang Temple, Dali Temple, Taipu Temple, and other places."

Wang Wenyan was happy and said: "With this sentence from the old master, the subordinates will feel relieved!"

...

Qianqing Palace.

Not long after, Zhu Youxiao received a memorial from the Censor Feng Sanyuan to impeach Xiong Tingbi.

Moreover, after looking at it, Zhu Youxiao found that Feng Sanyuan's words of impeachment of Xiong Tingbi were very sharp, and directly listed eight examples of Xiong Tingbi's lack of strategy and three examples of deceiving himself as an emperor.

Zhu Youxiao had to admit that these civil servants are worthy of being masters of eight-part essays and their impeachment memorials were very convincing.

If Zhu Youxiao had not been because of the time traveler who had a clear understanding of the historical development of later generations, he would have really believed what Feng Sanyuan said, believing that Xiong Tingbi was a person who had no strategy or even deceived the emperor and was greedy for money.

Fortunately, Zhu Youxiao had long known the trajectory of history and knew that Xiong Tingbi was not the incompetent person mentioned by these censors.
