"My minister, Li Tao, the head of the Ministry of Rites, reported: Since the beginning of autumn, he has never paid any attention to the emperor's long face. However, he heard that the sage body was incompatible, and he was exempted from all the teachings, worshiped the temples in the suburbs, sent officials to perform on their behalf, and did not be close to the government affairs, and stopped long-term lectures.

Knowing Your Majesty's illness, there is a reason for this. However, I have heard that if you are drinking, you will ulterior molten your stomach, you will consume your essence, if you are greedy for money, you will chaotic spirit, and if you are savvy, you will damage your liver. Now it is the joy of Aoshan, you will have to drink and indulge

Voice and color. White teeth, moth eyebrows, axe for cutting off nature; sweet, crisp, fat pus, and a medicine for rotting intestines... Therefore, Your Majesty's illness is not in the body, but in the disease is in the wine, sex, wealth and energy... The emperor is really addicted to alcohol, so why should he ban the banquets of his ministers?

Since you are greedy for money, how can you punish the gluttons of your subordinates? The emperor is sincere and how can you persuade the harmony of your subordinates? I dare to offer four examples. If Your Majesty is willing to use his words, he will immediately kill him. Even if he dies, he will still be alive.

.Only Your Majesty observes.”

...

Lin Weiran looked at the content of this copy of the memorial. Although he saw the student's literary talent and meticulous thinking, he couldn't help but take a breath.

This memorial was not only about poking Longqing's chrysanthemums, but even pulling off Longqing's flicker, turning the image of a wise king that Longqing had worked hard to create a few years ago into a laughing stock.

Since Longqing ascended the throne, he did not continue Jiajing's absurd practice of Taoism, and vigorously rectify the greed and corruption of local officials, the people of the world undoubtedly greatly improved the new emperor.

But now, Li Tao is focusing on Longqing's four weaknesses, "wine, sex, wealth, and energy", but he demoted Longqing to nothing.

Longqing's lust has long been recognized by the world. Otherwise, the Jiangnan talent show girl would not have caused such a big storm last year, causing many people to rob their son-in-law to protect their young girls.

Longqing's greed for money is not a secret. He repeatedly asked the Ministry of Revenue for money. The huge amount of money Xu Jie's family was already squandered. Recently, he issued treasury bonds through a joint bank.

As for drinking every night, this matter has been explained clearly. After all, Long Qing is so greedy for pleasure, but he often plays turtle mountain lamps. No one will believe that he is not easy to drink.

The fact that Longqing has no tolerance is also confirmed. After all, many officials who have directly advised have been demoted by Longqing in recent years.

Of course, people are not perfect, especially emperors of all dynasties will always be accompanied by various shortcomings, so Longqing is naturally impossible to be an exception.

Lin Qingran saw Li Tao's sharp words belittle Long Qing, and shook his head helplessly. Long Qing could not be regarded as a good emperor.

Quoting the words of Meng Sen, a famous historian in later generations, is just a matter of brewing the country's destruction.

Although Longqing did not practice Taoism in the whole country like Jiajing, nor did he think that Jiajing would hide in the West Garden for more than 20 years, he was "derogatory" in another form.

Even though he had morning court every day earlier, Long Qing could not hide his ruthlessness and indifference in his bones. He did not actively participate in the discussion and finalization of political affairs. He just sat on the dragon chaise every day.

Lin Qingran and Longqing met Prince Yu's Mansion, and the relationship between the monarch and the ministers has been maintained for four years, but Longqing never took the initiative to summon him to discuss political affairs and care about the situation of the people in the disaster area.

In Longqing's world, there are women in the harem, the money from the Ministry of Revenue, and the strange things brought by eunuchs, but there is no life or death of the people in the world.

Although Longqing is probably not as unbearable as Li Tao said, he is undoubtedly not a competent emperor, but he inherits Jiajing's selfishness and ruthlessness.

Lin Weiran silently put down the copy of the memorial in his hand and looked at the disciple with complicated eyes. He was really a newborn calf who was not afraid of a tiger, and was quite similar to Hai Rui back then.

"Master, I am really not happy to say anything this time. Please forgive me!" Li Tao knew that this matter was doomed, so he apologized seriously.

Lin Qingran also had no time to blame this disciple who was directly advised, so he warned: "The matter in this memorial should not be published in other ways! Otherwise, you are unfaithful, even a disciple who seeks fame and reputation, and you must be a teacher.

I am ashamed of you!”

"This time I just hope to persuade the emperor. The matters in the memorial will not be passed on. Please rest assured!" Li Tao respected Lin Qianran from the bottom of his heart and nodded immediately.

When Lin Xuran saw the sincerity in Li Tao's eyes, he raised his hand to signal Li Tao to leave, and he vaguely felt that this incident would definitely cause a stir.

Although the content of this memorial is far less shocking than that of "Jiajing, every family is clean" in "Jiajing", it has already obtained the two points of "Jiajing" and directly points to Longqing's four major life gates.

Even if Longqing has a good temper, he is the emperor of the Ming Dynasty after all, how could he easily swallow this breath?

After Li Tao walked out of the military office, he was worried that the Dongchang mansion would come too quickly, so he went to Wenyuan Pavilion without stopping.

Because he was a Jinshi in the second year of Longqing, he actually had another authentic teacher, Li Chunfang, the chief assistant of the cabinet.

After learning about the situation, Li Chunfang was stunned for a long time and looked at Li Tao in surprise, but she did not expect that this disciple would do such a shocking thing.

But like Lin Weiran, this is already a matter of being done. Can someone even hang up Li Tao and beat him up?

After Li Tao submitted his memorial, he began to arrange his funeral and entrust his wife and children to others. He waited at home for the Dongchang man to arrest him.

As a result, this memorial was like a rock sinking into the sea, without any movement at all, and even no one seemed to know about this matter.

Li Tao knew that the current Silijianwen study room was reviewing the memorials of officials word by word. Since his memorial was not sent to the cabinet, it was only possible that Longqing had "stayed" him.

But he kept Lin Junran's instructions in mind, but it was difficult to spread the content of this memorial, so he went to the Ministry of Rites to get off work on time every day.

In the blink of an eye, it was already New Year's Eve, and he was still safe and sound.

In his spare time, he couldn't help but wonder what Longqing responded to seeing his memorial. Why didn't he send a fan to throw himself into the imperial prison? Has he listened to his advice?

The incident went back to the day when the memorial was submitted. When the Silijianwenwen Office saw Li Tao's memorial of "great rebellion" and sent it to Longqing as soon as possible.

Because Longqing stopped the court, he slept until the sun was shining his butt every day, and his life was unprecedentedly comfortable. He was in a very good mood that morning. He did not plan to bring his concubines to play, but wanted to take his eldest prince to the West Garden to enjoy it.

Snow.

"Master, this jade beauty cut 10,000 taels for me!" Zhang Fu returned from outside the palace and presented a statue of a girl who was not suitable for children.

In this era, the objects that were very lacking in sequel to the sequel paintings. A lifelike jade beauty is undoubtedly priceless and something that men regard as treasures.

Longqing's eyes lit up slightly, and he seemed to carefully take out the jade beauty from the exquisite wooden box. Looking at the jade beauty's grace, expression and body, saliva couldn't help but overflow.

When Zhang Fu saw Longqing's reaction, his heart finally recovered. As long as Longqing was willing to pay this amount of money, he would get a kickback of 5,000 taels.

But this is true for life. I just floated up to the clouds excitedly, and the next second I might be in a quagmire.

When Longqing saw the rebellious memorial sent by Feng Bao, he immediately felt a surge of anger in his heart, but he angrily threw the memorial in his hand to the ground.

I thought that as long as he lie down while lying down and no longer asks for money from the Ministry of Revenue, he and the civil servant group could coexist in this tacit way.

But who could have thought that a small head of the Ministry of Rites actually accused himself of being "wine, sex, wealth, and energy", which made him worthless.

If he had a knife in his hand now, he would definitely kill Li Tao with his own hands. The image of a wise ruler he had worked hard to manage was destroyed in the hands of such a small person.

"Master, what's wrong with this?" Zhang Fu couldn't help but ask with concern as he looked at Long Qing's reaction.

Longqing felt that he was going crazy, but after falling down the memorial, he still couldn't relieve his anger. Seeing the jade beauty in Zhang Li's hand, he picked it up and threw it hard on the ground.

As this exquisite jade carving hit the ground, a crisp sound immediately sounded in the hall, and there were scattered jade scattered pieces on the ground.

this……

Zhang Fu couldn't help feeling a sensation of pain when he saw the beautiful woman worth ten thousand taels of gold crushed by Longqing, but he looked up in shock and looked at Longqing with an angry face.

But whether it was because he felt sorry for the beauty jade carving he had just bought at a high price, or because he was so angry that he could reach the sky, Long Qing suddenly felt dizzy, his body became weak, and cold blood appeared on his forehead.

When Zhang Fu and Feng Bao next to him saw Longqing falling down, they took the lead in catching Longqing and then sent Longqing, who was cold all over to the bed.

The incident caught people off guard. However, seeing Longqing's situation was so anxious that the eunuch called the imperial physician.

The two imperial doctors carefully checked Longqing's symptoms, but they couldn't figure out the symptoms of Longqing. After they decided to prescribe some nourishing prescriptions for Longqing.

The oldest qualification of the Tai Doctor Chen gave a reminder: "The emperor was born in Weiyang and wanted to cure and calm down. He was willing to clear his heart and cleanse himself in the officialdom and enter the imperial court forever!"

Although he had not seen Longqing's hard-working little bee with his own eyes, he probably guessed that, so he advised Longqing to reduce his sexual life. If he prescribed more supplements, it would definitely be beneficial or harmless.

It is precisely because Li Tao was worried about his future outside, but he didn't know that his memorial directly caused Long Qing to fall ill.

Fortunately, Longqing was just like last time. Although he had some strange symptoms, he quickly recovered, but this time his body obviously felt inappropriate.

When Long Qing recovered, thinking about Li Tao's evaluation of him in the memorial, he couldn't help but get angry again and found the memorial.

Zhang Fu had read the content of the memorial just now, but he asked seriously: "Master, how should I deal with this matter? Otherwise, if I lead someone to arrest Li Tao, I will definitely make him worse than death!"

Due to the deterioration of the relationship between Longqing and the civil servant group, the status of their eunuchs was invisibly improved, and some matters of arresting officials fell on their Dongchang.

"If Li Tao is arrested, then it will naturally be necessary to explain the reason, and the content of this... memorial will be published!" Although Long Qing had already hated Li Tao, he still said rationally.

At this time, he finally understood why his father was suppressing Hai Rui's memorials back then. It was too embarrassing to publish them.

Although this memorial is not as sharp as the "Public Security Memorial", if it is really spread to the outside, my face will be really unbearable.

Wine, sex, wealth, and aura are simply referring to the fact that I am a playboy, and I am still the wise ruler who was praised for his peaceful era.

Zhang Fu frowned slightly, and asked in confusion: "Li Tao is so bold and spread rumors about His Majesty. Do you really want to forgive him?"

Feng Bao, who was standing next to him, also looked curious. It is said that Longqing might have been able to settle things in the early years, but Longqing, who had ascended the throne for four years, probably wasn't so generous.

"My father didn't arrest Hai Rui immediately back then. How could I deal with Li Tao in a hasty way? Let's wait and see!" Long Qing didn't want to cause trouble again, so he said what he thought was.

It’s not that he doesn’t want to deal with Li Tao, but that once this matter is processed, the content of the memorial will be made public as soon as possible, and he will become the laughing cake for the whole world.

The best way to deal with it now is undoubtedly to borrow the method of his father and drag it down first, and then decide whether to attack Li Tao.

However, Zhang Fu misinterpreted Long Qing's intention and immediately asked in a low voice: "Master, do you... do you suspect that someone is instructing you behind this?"

"The five cabinet ministers in the cabinet are all good ministers in governing the country, but they cannot provoke me for no reason. I believe that this time it was Li Tao who wanted to invite fame, so that he could be promoted several levels like Hai Rui in the future and be famous.

The world!" Although Longqing is not good at conspiracy, he still has his own judgment.

Zhang Fu frowned, but said in confusion: "Prince, what do you mean?"

"Isn't the New Year coming soon? I'll just follow this memorial first, and I'll talk about it later. Then I will decide whether to deal with him!" Long Qing had calmed down his anger and said with great rationality.

Feng Bao, who was standing next to him, looked at Longqing indifferently, and immediately guessed that Xiao Jiujiu of Longqing was no longer tolerant, but that he did not want this memorial to be publicized, which made him, the emperor, feel ashamed.

In fact, it is no wonder that the emperor's biggest weakness was his reputation. Even the late Jiajing was no longer willing to kill Hai Rui and left a bad reputation.

As Longqing formulated a plan, the memorial about Li Tao was kept and the court returned to peace.

On the first day of the Chinese New Year, Longqing was drinking with all officials, but this year's Longqing was abnormal and cancelled this session. Even the Wansui Aoshan Lantern in front of the Meridian Gate for two consecutive years was no longer held.
