His good friends, Chen Youcai, Lu Zhantang, Ding Yi, and Ma Ping ‘an had already fallen out.
Because of his relationship, Zheng Fugui managed the Flood Dragon Guards and the Crown Prince’s personal guards with Rong Weiya of the Eastern Palace. He was very close to Xiao Mi. Xiao Mi’s grandfather was Eunuch Xiao, Wei Shang’s trusted aide.
Yang Hongling had a very good relationship with him. She had brought him to the Fate Academy several times and had even eaten at his house a few times.
He finished reading it in one go.
He Wenxuan put down the document and glared at him. “Look at him, this is what professionalism is!”
Feng Youwei smiled apologetically and did not dare to refute. He cursed in his heart. He was the Purple Dragon Envoy of the True Dragon Palace. What did he do? How could he compare with him?
“What should we do now?” Monkey asked anxiously.”
“Strange! Whether it’s the information you’ve investigated or the information Wanguo emphasized, there’s no record of Zhang Ronghua learning from others. Why is he so knowledgeable? You can even handle some memorials?”
“Could it be the Crown Prince?” Feng Youwei probed.”
“Eh? It’s really possible for the United States to go from one to two.” He Wenxuan’s eyes lit up.
Before Zhang Ronghua was transferred to the Scholar’s Hall, he was in charge of the Flood Dragon Guards in the Eastern Palace and often accompanied the Crown Prince. The Crown Prince handled government affairs and stayed by his side for a long time. Even a pig would inevitably learn a little.
If the prince specialized in cultivating these years down, there are these reserves of knowledge, still can deal with memorials, although it is a bit exaggerated, but it is also explained.
Thinking about how the Crown Prince had spent so much effort to transfer him to the Scholar Hall, it seemed that it was most likely the case!
He wanted to send out a signal to focus on nurturing him.
Thinking of this, He Wenxuan was excited. He had dealt with Zhang Ronghua, dragged Pei Caihua into the matter, and even caused the Crown Prince to lose a great helper. The more he thought about it, the more pleased he felt.
He stood up from the chair and walked around the hall with his hands behind his back, thinking about how to take down Zhang Ronghua and Pei Caihua.
At this moment, a counselor’s voice sounded from outside,’”‘Lord He, Grand Secretary Cui asked me to bring you the memorial.”
An idea flashed in his mind.
He Wenxuan thought about it. Today’s morning court session had turned into a market, and it had nothing to do with the officials. Jixia Academy and Fate Academy had joined forces to attack Evergreen Academy, accusing them of neglecting their duties, not understanding education, and misleading their students. All these years, they had not made any achievements. Faced with the attacks of the two academies, the people of Evergreen Academy naturally did not agree. They quarreled and almost started fighting. Fortunately, they were at the Purple Extreme Hall, and they finally stopped.
Emperor Xia was clearly biased towards the two academies. Even though the evidence presented by Jixia Academy and Destiny Academy could not withstand scrutiny, Changqing Academy had gone too far this time. Although the matter of Haoran’s bone-setting had been resolved, the impact was still there. They had to be severely punished. They had to give the Chancellor of the Imperial College and the two main secretaries of the directorate a beating. They had to be stripped of their official positions and demoted to white bodies. They would then be sent to other places to educate the people. The details would be discussed by the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets before a memorial was submitted for Emperor Xia’s approval.
Looking at the whole thing.
His Majesty’s stance was clear. He had to punish severely and send him to a bad place. This was a job that offended people, and the one he offended was the Evergreen Academy. If the punishment was light, he would offend His Majesty and the two academies. If the punishment was heavy, he would offend the Evergreen Academy. No matter what, it would be a thankless task.
If Zhang Ronghua was allowed to handle this matter, no matter what he did, he would offend both sides.
No matter which side attacked him, he had the upper hand. He pushed the blame onto Zhang Ronghua, and then named Zhang Ronghua as Pei Caicai’s subordinate, making them hate this old man. If he wanted to enter the cabinet again, with so many political enemies, it would be easy to guess that the difficulty would be doubled or tripled.
At a glance, the entire imperial court was an enemy. Even if you were capable and had good character, the Emperor would not allow such a person to enter the cabinet. He would only give you other positions.
He Wenxuan smiled brightly as he thought of the exciting part. He was like an old fox who had seen his scheme succeed.
He sat down on the chair with a straight face and said expressionlessly, “Come in! ”
He was full of official authority and had grasped it very well.
The councilor came in from outside and placed the memorial he had brought in his arms on the desk before respectfully leaving.
After he left.
Feng Youwei hurriedly closed the door and returned with a puzzled expression. “Sir, have you thought of an idea?”
He Wenxuan took the memorial that was placed at the top and pointed at it, indicating for him to read it himself. Feng Youwei took the memorial and read it. It recorded the matter of the Imperial College’s Chancellor and the directorate’s two main secretaries being demoted to a white official.
After reading it once, he put down the memorial and asked in confusion, “Why did Grand Secretary Cui send you this troublesome memorial?”
He Wenxuan held the teacup and slowly took a sip. Then, he put the teacup down and pointed out the stakes. “Even with Cui Lao’s support, if I want to enter the pavilion, I have to show some outstanding ability to convince the other four pavilion elders and gain their support! No one would be at ease if they entered the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets and dealt with the military and political affairs of the dynasty without any ability! Believe it or not, as long as the officials spread the word, Pei Caihua would run over and take this memorial away.”
Feng Youwei flattered him appropriately.” Although he is the Minister of Rites and has a high position and power, he does not have the right to access the memorials. Your Excellency is different. You are the manager of the Tianji Pavilion. Although your power is slightly lower than his, the major events that you can access are far beyond his..”
