Although Zhao Wenhua felt disgusted, he couldn't show it. He smiled and said, "You don't have to eat the oranges. I came to see Cui Bingke to discuss something important."
Cui Lu was flattered when he heard this.
My goodness, the other party is a fourth-rank official, a leader among the many lackeys of the Yan Party, Zhao Wenhua, Zhao Tongzheng!
I don’t know what happened today, but Zhao Wenhua not only came to visit him but also to discuss important matters with him.
What an honor it is!
After Cui Lu joined the Yan Party, he had been suffering from a lack of opportunities to show his abilities. Now it seems that his chance has come!
"Zhao Tongzheng, please speak!"
Cui Lu smiled until his eyes narrowed into slits, and spoke in a very flattering manner.
"Cui Bingke, come closer and listen."
There were many people and gossips in the Zhejiang Guild Hall, so Zhao Wenhua was worried that the room was not soundproofed, so he was a little cautious.
Cui Lu didn't care and simply put his head closer.
Zhao Wenhua gave Cui Lu some instructions, and Cui Lu was full of confidence after hearing them.
Isn't it just trolling? He's not good at anything, but he's the best at trolling.
Cui Lu immediately patted his chest and guaranteed that he would make the Governor of Fujian and Zhejiang cry for his parents.
Zhao Wenhua was very satisfied. He admired this kind of fearless warrior.
Zhao Wenhua had said everything he needed to say and explained everything he needed to explain. Naturally, he didn't want to stay in the room any longer.
He is a mysophobe and even a little dust would make him angry, not to mention Cui Lu's terrible indoor environment.
Zhao Wenhua has been trying his best to restrain himself since he entered the house, and now he finally doesn't have to endure it anymore.
However, Cui Lu was still worried after sending Zhao Wenhua out of the house, so he sent him straight to the gate of the guild hall. Only after seeing Zhao Wenhua sitting in the sedan chair did Cui Lu reluctantly walk back.
After returning to the house, Cui Lu laughed wildly.
"I was born with talent that will be useful, even if I lose all my money, I will get it back!"
Li Bai never lied to me!
An important job of the Six Departments Censors is to criticize people. The harsher the criticism, the more responsible they are for their work.
It just so happened that Cui Lu had not impeached any officials this month, so he just happened to criticize the Governor of Fujian and Zhejiang.
The censors don't need a reason to criticize others. They just find a direction and start criticizing.
As for the general direction, Zhao Wenhua has already told Cui Lu, and the specific details are up to Cui Lu to play freely.
The skillfulness of the criticism reflects the professional quality of a censor.
Cui Lu is certainly confident in his professionalism.
There is no need to calculate an auspicious day for impeaching an official. It is better to do it today than to choose a day.
Cui Lu immediately spread out the paper and ground it, and began to build up his emotions.
There are several aspects to impeaching local officials.
One is corruption and bribery.
The second is withholding military pay.
The third is to keep the enemy at bay.
The first two are generally effective for civil officials, while the last two are effective for military officers or governors and governors-general who control military officers.
Theoretically, all three of these can be used.
But he is a perfectionist who pays attention to the logic within the impeachment documents.
After careful consideration, he picked up his pen, dipped it in ink and began to write quickly.
I have to say it feels so good to criticize people without any scruples.
Even if it was later proved that Cui Lu's impeachment was false, he would not be punished.
In this situation, what does Cui Lu have to be afraid of? It is a sure win.
Cui Lu quickly finished writing an impeachment document. After reading it carefully, he blew the ink off the paper and carefully put it away.
Hehe, today is the day for me, Cui Lu, to fight and I will definitely become famous in this battle!

...
Zhao Wenhua returned home, washed his face comfortably, and changed his clothes with the help of his beautiful concubine.
Humph, you dare to set your sights on my Zhao family. You are simply challenging the emperor.
He believed that as soon as the memorial came out, even if Zhu Wan was not dismissed from office, he would be frightened and break out in a cold sweat.
As a human being, you should be more sensible.
Anyone who dares to go against the Zhao family will undoubtedly end up dead.
The beautiful concubine poured a glass of wine for Zhao Wenhua and brought it to his mouth. Zhao Wenhua took a sip and the wine went down his throat with a refreshing feeling.
"Master, please let me serve you well tonight."
Zhao Wenhua was completely captivated and kept saying yes.
He always envied Yan Shifan for marrying more than a dozen beautiful concubines. Although he had fewer concubines than Yan Shifan, he still had some exquisite ones.
Zhao Wenhua had drunk a little wine and was a little drunk. He was just about to pick up his concubine and enjoy the pleasure of love, but unexpectedly the housekeeper suddenly came outside the house to report that an urgent letter had arrived from Hangzhou.
Zhao Wenhua suddenly lost interest and asked the housekeeper to come in in a bad mood.
The housekeeper naturally knew that Zhao Wenhua was furious at the moment, so he carefully handed the letter to Zhao Wenhua and quietly retreated.
When Zhao Wenhua saw that the letter was written by Zhao Wenjie, he secretly cursed his useless brother for having no opinions of his own. He wrote to him every few days. Did he really think he was so free?
No matter how angry you are or how much you curse, you still have to read the letter.
Zhao Wenhua took out the letter paper, shook it with a loud bang, and unfolded it to read.
The letter wasn't very long, but it was essentially saying one thing: stop impeaching Zhu Wan. As for the reason, he simply replied at the end.
Zhao Wenhua's face changed after reading it.
"How did Zhu Wan know that I presented my godfather's Hundred Flowers Wine to the Emperor?"
Zhao Wenhua was extremely cautious in this matter, and basically no one knew about it. Zhu Wan was far away in Hangzhou, so how could she possibly know about it?
Although I don't understand why, this is the fact.
In fact, there was nothing wrong with Zhao Wenhua presenting Baihua wine to the emperor.
The problem was that Zhao Wenhua lied and said that his godfather Yan Song was in great spirits and seemed several years younger because he drank Baihua wine.
The current emperor is devoted to practicing Taoism and seeking immortality, and he is not opposed to anything that can prolong life.
Therefore, the emperor happily accepted the Hundred Flowers Wine and praised Zhao Wenhua.
But the problem is that Yan Song has never tasted this wine!
The so-called Baihua wine is actually not a specific kind of wine, but a blend.
The specific method is to pick the stamens of plum blossoms, orchids, chrysanthemums, apricot blossoms and other flowers, dry them and place them in a wine jar, sprinkle them with special wine yeast and seal them. This can only be brewed once a year, so the output is very small.
Baihua wine is a good thing, and Emperor Jiajing felt very good after drinking it.
However, in order to increase the effect, Zhao Wenhua lied that Yan Song often drank this wine, which was a big taboo.
To put it bluntly, this is deceiving the emperor!
In the letter, Zhao Wenjie said that Zhu Wan already knew about this and advised Zhao Wenhua not to anger Zhu Wan to avoid exposing the matter.
Judging from the time, the two letters were sent one after the other, which means that Zhu Wan warned Zhao Wenjie shortly after he sent the first letter.
This led to the second letter.
Zhao Wenhua was shocked and annoyed. It was obvious that Zhu Wan had a backup plan. The reason he dared to manipulate the Zhao family so unscrupulously was because he had Zhao Wenhua's leverage in his hand.
But how did Zhu Wan know that he had presented the Hundred Flowers Wine to the Emperor? Could it be that Zhu Wan had someone in the palace?
Thinking of this, Zhao Wenhua broke out in a cold sweat.
Fortunately, he received the letter early, otherwise, if the impeachment memorial was delivered to the emperor, it would have been the end of Zhao Wenhua's life.
