.Chapter 792: Tiger and Wolf Fight (Part 2)
@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@
After listening to Wu Yue's accusation, Xu Jie smiled and asked him to have a cup of tea to calm down, and turned to look at Guo Pu, the Grand Secretary who was on duty today... According to the rules, Guo Pu should consider the matter. Of course, if you want to make a decision, the chief assistant has to nod.
Guo Pu was very disgusted with Hu Yingjia, who was like a mess. After hearing Wu Yue’s accusation, he was very angry and said in a deep voice: “This Hu Yingjia, as a minister of the official department, participated in the entire process when the Ministry of Personnel handled the Beijing inspection. Why did he not raise any objections at that time and insisted on jumping out afterwards? Going back on his word and fighting each other, I think this is not the reason why a minister serves the king. How can such a censor take charge of the court’s constitution? I think he should be deprived of his family and the people.”
Xu Jie didn't want to punish Hu Yingjia, and looked at Guo Pu, and said indifferently: "I'm afraid it's not appropriate? The censor is the court's eyes and ears and ears, and has the right to report the news. Even if the report is not true, it's just a reprimand. If it is severely punished, it is probably a suspicion of suppressing the speech..."
"Yuan Weng Mingjian, this is not the same thing..." Guo Pu said patiently: "It's not that there is something wrong with the news, but now that he has finished the Beijing investigation, he jumped out. He is clearly dissatisfied with the results of the Beijing investigation. He wants to turn the tables on the party and protect the party and the party and protect the party and the party and the first to commit the ban. If he is not punished severely, he may really ruin the way of speaking."
Xu Jie couldn't help but frown, thinking that this was not nonsense? The Beijing Chamber did not come out, and there was no reason to impeach Yang Bo's 'party protection and revenge'? But he couldn't say this, otherwise he would become a scheming. He had to sigh and said, "I immediately condemn the way I heard the throne, so why not stop the future?"
Guo Pu looked at Gao Gong opposite him and saw that his face was as dark as iron. He knew that the man was on the verge of an outbreak and quickly turned his eyes and told him not to be impulsive... Hu Yingjia and Gao Gong had a gap in the past. At this time, if Gao Huzi opened his mouth, he would immediately take the opportunity to retaliate. The yellow mud fell into his crotch. It was either shit or shit.
"Yan Lu, Yan Lu Yuanweng has only Yan Lu in his eyes." Fortunately, Wu Yue, who had just stopped, couldn't help but blew his beard and stared at him and said, "Don't forget, we are the six departments who are doing things, you only care about them, have you ever considered our feelings?"
Xu Jie's face was as deep as water at this time, and his mood was very bad... On the one hand, it was because he was the chief minister, and on the other hand, Guo Pu and Wu Yue were both old ministers with good reputations, and their words were very heavy. Now they oppose themselves together, and the situation was very passive. What's more dangerous is that there was a gunpowder tank that had reached the brink of the explosion. Xu Jie glanced at Gao Gong on the side, and saw that although Gao Gong did not speak since the beginning due to the conflict with Hu Yingjia, he was already angry - he glared at the eyes and rolled up his sleeves, and was about to rush up to beat someone at any time.
Fortunately, at this time, Li Chunfang came out to be a peacemaker. He took Wu Yue's arm and said intimately: "Don't worry, Wanghu Gong, Yuan Weng will definitely deal with it carefully..." Chen Yiqin also came forward and said: "That's right, Yuan Weng will not let the Ministry of Rites suffer losses. Besides, Yang Puzhou is Shuode, can a mere slight injury?" Although they are both persuading the fight, the tendency of each side is very obvious.
However, after the two of them were mixed up, the tense atmosphere that was about to break out weakened a lot. Xu Jie knew that he couldn't get a trap today. You said, "The hero will not suffer any loss in front of him, so he just went down and said, "Okay, I agree..."
Wu Yue and Guo Pu were relieved, and a hint of joy appeared on Gao Gong's face.
Xu Jie's expression was a little desolate, as if he was upset about not being able to protect his fellow villagers.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
'The official department chief Hu Yingjia, the party guards the co-official officials, used private matters to report, violated the ban for the first time, and deposed the people.' The bill written by Guo Pu quickly turned into a court decree, declaring the government offices in the capital, which immediately aroused a thousand layers of huge numbers*
However, Hu Yingjia, who suffered a heavy blow, was extremely calm. Even when he received the imperial edict, he always held his head high and looked passionate. After the imperial envoy left, everyone in the Sixth Corridor hurriedly stepped forward to comfort him. This time they were all sincere... They felt that Section Chief Hu dared to stand up for his colleagues and challenge the powerful without fear. Although it was inevitable that he would be done, he was really manly.
At the same time, they were deeply ashamed of their momentary cowardice, and many even shed tears...
"Everyone, don't act like that woman." Hu Yingjia stared at the goldfish's eyes vigorously and grinned, "We are the censors who are strong and bloodless," and said with a sigh, "I am now in a guilty state, and I can't stay in the Sixth Corridor anymore," and said as he said, "I'm so sad that I can't cherish this seventh-rank official uniform, but I can't work with you to safeguard the morality of the court..." This person did not make people cry, but he started crying. This scene was indeed contagious. All the censors in the room burst into tears, and some people cried so hard that they all snot.
I don’t know who shouted first: “Secretary Hu was dismissed from office because he spoke for us. We can’t watch him be sent to us to fight.”
"Yes," immediately said excitedly: "We cannot surrender. It is obvious that Yang Bo made a mistake first, and Section Chief Hu impeached according to law. Now the defendant is safe and sound, but the impeached person was dismissed from office. Is there any need for our censors to exist?"
"We are not so easy to bully. We must exercise the power given to us by Emperor Taizu. We don't have to wait for when."
"Yes, the time has come to maintain the dignity of the science and technology, we must let the powerful know that this Ming Dynasty was not what they did."
Seeing that it finally aroused everyone's anger, a hint of pride flashed in Hu Yingjia's eyes, and he kept saying: "If you can't do it, don't do it. Don't implicate you all for Yingjia alone..."
"Don't meet with the section chief, this is not your own business, it is the business of all our censors." Li Ke's staff member Xin Zixiu shouted: "We must maintain justice in the world and fight with powerful officials together."
"Yes, fight to the death, fight to the death." The shouts in the Six Casinos gradually became neat, and anger and impulse occupied the mainstream. Some people who didn't want to get involved could only shout, otherwise they would definitely be knocked into scum by others.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The censors acted extremely rapidly, and they exercised the power of "Science and Instructions" on the same day! The so-called "Science and Instructions" is the right to refute the six departments. Whether it is the administrative order of the six departments or the edict issued in the name of the emperor, as long as the six departments feel that it is inappropriate, they can be rejected on the spot and not promulgated. The power is amazing. However, it is precisely because of its amazing that the six departments have always been used only on the six departments. As for the refutation of the emperor's edict, this is the first time since the "Great Ceremony Controversy".
While rejecting the decree, the censors launched a fierce attack on a group of "power traitors". The participating troops not only included the Liukelang staff, but also the thirteen censors and the Censors joined forces to write letters to criticize some powerful ministers for their illegal acts of defiance of the court's discipline and impeachment, flying to the Tongzhengsi Department like snowflakes. The targets of the attack were Yang Bo, the evil accomplice Wu Yue, Guo Pu, who took the opportunity to retaliate... and Gao Gong, who was identified as the mastermind behind the scenes.
Gao Gong was so depressed. In order to avoid suspicion, when he agreed to punish Hu Yingjia, he forced himself to say nothing. Unexpectedly, he was shot while lying down. It seemed that what should come was coming, and he couldn't hide it.
The main ones who impeached him were the chief minister Xin Zixiu and the censor Chen Lianfang. They impeached Gao Gong for abuse of power and suppressing remarks... It seems that the censors all determined that Guo Pu was his mate, and his every word and action reflected his intentions.
This is really a crime to be added. Why don’t you worry about this? Gao Gong is so depressed? But no matter how depressed he is, according to the convention, he must immediately put down his work and write a memorial to defend himself... In addition to defending, he also has to say that he has made the Holy Lord work hard and is frightened. Please remove all my positions...
In that room, Yang Bo, Wu Yue and Guo Pu were the same. They all had to submit memorials to defend themselves and resign at the same time...
The four major ministers and important officials resigned at the same time. This was no longer something that the cabinet could punish. Finally, the hard-working Emperor Longqing was alarmed.
When Longqing saw that even his teacher was about to resign, he became anxious and said, "That's all right. What can I do if the teacher leaves?"
Feng Bao, who was serving the side, quickly repelled the Yingyingyan and whispered to the emperor: "Don't worry, your elders, this is the convention of the foreign court. The more officials do, the more they will be impeached."
"That wouldn't be resigning..." Long Qing said anxiously.
"Just pretending..." Feng Bao curled his lips and thought to himself that it would be great if he could get out of here.
"So that's it..." Longqing calmed down, and he was also concerned and confused. When he saw Gao Gong resigning, he felt panicked. Now he calmed down and knew that Feng Bao was right. He looked through the memorials and said, "Why did Yang Shaobao be participated in? He is the Zhuguo left to me by his father, Lord Wu and Master Guo, these are all famous ministers who have always been introduced." Even if he is not sensitive to political affairs, Longqing still knows his subordinates very well... He remembered what Shen Mo said, "Those who are superiors can do nothing and do it themselves, but the premise is that they must know people and be good at responsibilities, and they cannot use the wrong person. Therefore, he devoted all his limited serious skills to understanding his ministers.
Speaking of the main business, Feng Bao didn't dare to interrupt. He was a smart eunuch. He knew that eunuchs were originally an opportunity to intervene in politics, and he was not from the Silijian, so he didn't dare to talk nonsense.
Fortunately, Longqing did not intend to ask him for his opinion, but went to look through the impeachment memorials, and then saw familiar and annoying names - these guys, who were looking for trouble all day long, were picky about themselves, such as negligence, luxury, unfiliality, disagreement between husband and wife, too many sexual partners, re-election of eunuchs, alienating the ministers... criticized himself as an emperor, as if all the sins of the world were concentrated on himself.
The clay man has three parts of earthiness, let alone the emperor? But Longqing knew that these censors were like hornets and could not afford to offend them... so he was so innocent. But now they were getting more and more arrogant and bullied Master Gao. If they didn't take the opportunity to show their colors, they really thought that I, the emperor, was a Bodhisattva in the temple - a decoration?
So Longqing asked someone to write an order to comfort Gao Gong, Yang Bo and others, and issued an order to let the cabinet again agree on Hu Yingjia's punishment.
The Holy Will is not difficult to understand. It is to let the cabinet give Hu Yingjia another serious matter, but Xu Jie completely controls the direction of the cabinet meeting... He didn't want to give Hu Yingjia a serious matter, but now there is a rush of emotions as an excuse. The main opponents Gao Gong and Guo Pu were shot because they were both shot. Although they were left by the emperor, they became thrust into the mouth and did not say a word. As for silence, Chen Yiqin and Zhang Juzheng, the three of them, do not have the right to speak yet, and can only make a long-term contemplation on the side.
So it became his one-man show...
Finally, with Xu Jie's instructions, Li Chunfang wrote and re-enforced Hu Yingjia's punishment: First, adhere to the consistent correctness of the cabinet... Saying that Hu Yingjia's way of impeaching the Minister of Personnel was unruly, which easily made people suspicious of his intentions, so the cabinet considered deposing him.
But you don’t offend the censors either… You all think that the current Longqing Xinyuan period should be focused on opening up the Internet, so you suggest keeping him. Everyone has made sense.
I flattered Longqing again... and said that the emperor was very concerned and asked about this matter personally. Under the emperor's kind and wise leadership, we finally had a solution.
The solution is to mix with the poor... The cabinet said that we are also in a difficult situation. If we insist on the original judgment, it will disappoint Kedao and cannot demonstrate the great grace of the emperor. However, if we deal with it according to Kedao's suggestions, there will undoubtedly be suspicion of being favored and betrayal. Therefore, the two parties finally weighed the pros and cons, and Hu Yingjia was transferred to Yanping, Fujian to be promoted.
The melody and elaborate throughout the article are gentle and versatile, just like the feeling Li Chunfang gives people.
Xu Jie saw it and was very satisfied, so he handed it to Gao Gong and said, "Gei Gao, too, do you have any opinions?"
Gao Gong took it without saying a word, and handed it to Guo Pu after reading it. The two exchanged glances, feeling that this could be considered as giving him some face and barely acceptable.
So the spot was sealed with paint and sent to the emperor for the imperial examination.
Seeing this scene, Zhang Juzheng shook his head slightly, his expression a little desolate. After a long time, he raised his head and looked at Gao Gong, who was unwilling to accept his heart. His eyes finally fell on Shen Mo and said in a low voice: "I'll treat you to drink tonight."
Chen Si looked at him. The relationship between the two was inevitably a little cold because of the entry of the cabinet. Although they were both polite on the surface, they never had a private party again. However, Chen Si seemed not surprised at Zhang Juzheng's invitation, and just whispered: "Old place?"
"No," Zhang Juzheng shook his head and said softly: "Yuebinlou."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
If he didn't plan to work overtime, Shen Shi could leave the cabinet once he passed. The cabinet ministers seemed to have made Hu Yingjia's affairs lose their mood to work. Once it arrived, they left Wenyuan Pavilion one after another, and even the elder Xu Pavilion, who regarded the cabinet as his home, left. After being silent, he became the last one.
When he got home and changed into casual clothes, it was dark outside, so he had to go to the meeting quickly. Instead of sitting in the grand first-class sedan, he sat in an inconspicuous double sedan and left the alley to go to Dengshikou.
Dengshikou is a prime location where great restaurants in Beijing are gathered, with singing, dancing and pavilions, and wineries and restaurants. After dark, shops are closed elsewhere, and there are no people on the streets, but the opposite is true, and it becomes more lively than during the day.
At the easternmost end of Dengshikou, there is a horizontal street called Miaoyou Street, which is the most prosperous place in the entire Dengshikou night market. On this Miaoyou Street, the most grand, luxurious and most elegant restaurants in the capital are all decorated in magnificent and rich in beauty. Especially at night, the various lights of each house lit up various pearls and clouds, which made people look even more dreamy. It makes people feel that they don’t know what tonight, and they just think they have come to the fairy garden.
Sitting in the sedan chair silently, I couldn't help but lift the curtain to watch the prosperous imperial capital, singing and dancing. I thought to myself that Gao Suqing had done a good thing. Once I left the tax and imperial store, the prices in the capital were reduced by half. Many people suddenly felt that they were much more relaxed, and there were obviously more people who came to such high-end places to consume.
Just as I was thinking a lot, the sedan chair was slowly carried into the yard of the "Yuebin Building". This is the highest-end restaurant in the capital. It not only has a sedan hall, but also arranges food for the sedan chair guards on the ground floor...
As soon as he got out of the sedan chair, the attentive guest sang: "Young Master, I wish you a good fortune, may you ask if you have an appointment or a treat?
Before he finished speaking, a shrewd butler came over and said, "I have met Mr. Shen. I am the butler of the Zhang family. I am the famous Youqi..." Although I was respectful, my words and deeds were filled with a bookish atmosphere. It looked like a higher-end one than Shen An and Shen Quan.
‘I heard that this guy is a scholar? He actually became a housekeeper…’ I remembered some rumors in silence, and of course it was difficult to confirm it. So I nodded and said lightly: “Your master has arrived early?”
"Just arrived, just arrived." You Qi replied with a smile, while asking for silence to pass through the main building and heading to the backyard.
Unlike the noisy and lively front building, the backyard is prepared for noble people. The small single courtyards are quiet and elegant, which is a good place to talk about some things.
Follow You Qi into the innermost courtyard, You Qi knocked on the door of the door and whispered: "Sir, Lord Shen is here."
A hearty laugh came from inside and said, "Please come in quickly." As he spoke, the door opened. Zhang Juzheng was wearing a straight Japanese satin with stone green flowers, with a dark green jade pendant hanging around his waist, and stood there with his neatly combed long beards, like a natural nobleman from Yanju, which made people secretly applauded.
"I didn't expect that Jiangnan could come so early." Zhang Juzheng turned sideways and invited him in.
"If you are not active in eating, you will definitely have problems with your thoughts." Chen Shu smiled and entered this noblely decorated quiet room.
