Chapter 124
After Zhang Hao got the money, he was very happy. Finally, he fooled some money back from Jiajing. However, he really wanted to think of some ways to make money. He could not find out any money. In this way, he would probably be the same as his father's in the future. It was very miserable and he could not save his private money.
All afternoon, there was nothing wrong, and Jiajing was still reading the memorials. Jiajing got the money but didn't move.
At night, the Censorate delivered a memorial, and arrived at the cabinet. Tonight, it was Xu Jie on duty. When Xu Jie saw this memorial, he was stunned for a moment. Tu Qiao wanted to impeach Yuan Qiwang, the prefect of Shuntian Prefecture. The impeachment memorial was written.
In the seven years since Yuan Qiwang served as the prefect of Shuntian, his family's wealth has increased by more than 400,000 taels. This is still an open asset that can be found. No one knows how many silver notes there are in the family. In addition, in the Shuntian Mansion, taxes have been under construction in recent years, etc., anyway, more than ten items have been impeached.
When Xu Jie saw this impeachment memorial, he asked the officials what time it was? He learned that it was almost time for Hai, and the palace gate had already been locked. Xu Jie was relieved. Only in this way would he not have to send it to the emperor immediately. This memorial should be delivered tomorrow morning.
"Yuan Qiwang, but people from Lu Ben's group are very close to Yan Song. Why did Tu Qiao do this this time? He offended two cabinet officials at once?" Xu Jie sat there, thinking about what happened later, thinking about why Tu Qiao came to impeachment at this time?
Early the next morning, after Lu Ben and Yan Song came over, Xu Jie took out the memorial and said, "Last night, the impeachment memorial sent by Zuodu Censor Tu Qiao, impeaching the prefect of Shuntian Prefecture, corruption, dereliction of duty, and neglecting human life, as well as framed colleagues. Zhang Jiaren was framed to death. Tu Qiao is now going to overturn the case for Zhang Jiaren!"
"What?" Yan Song was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and Lu Ben was also stunned. Then the two of them looked at the memorial.
"This!" After reading the memorial, Lu Ben was a little worried at this moment. Yuan Qiwang was his disciple and he was transferred by himself.
Nowadays, there is so much corruption and he is impeached by the Zuodu Censor himself. This matter is not that good, and Yan Song is also worried that Yuan Qiwang has given gifts to his home many times, as if Yan Shifan had something to do with him before. Shuntian Mansion is at the foot of the emperor and has great power.
This position is the most wanted position local officials want. Without the support of Lu Ben and Yan Song, how could Yuan Qiwang be able to take this position?
"I sent it last night?" Yan Song asked at Xu Jie.
"Yes, I sent it last night. When it was delivered, the palace gate was locked. This memorial needs to be sent to the emperor's desk!" Xu Jie nodded and said, Yan Song nodded and sat down, and Lu Ben also sat down.
"I see, I'd better ask Tu Qiao to come and ask. Don't impeach the wrong person. Now the capital is in chaos. At this time, it's not a good thing to take down the Shuntian Prefecture Prefecture. In addition, the Shuntian Prefecture is seriously injured this time and requires a lot of money and food to help the people. It's a mess. Who will serve as the Shuntian Prefecture Prefecture Prefecture? Who dares to serve as the Shuntian Prefecture?" Lu Ben sat there and looked at the two of them and asked.
"Yeah, yes!" Yan Song nodded. Seeing that both of them agreed, Xu Jie would not say anything, and opposition would be invalid.
What's more, he also wanted to know more news, and it was best to let Tu Qiao come over.
After a while, the officials came over and bowed to them and said, "Go back to the ministers, Zuodu Censor went to Hejian Mansion to investigate early this morning!"
"What, go to Hejian Mansion?" Lu Ben was so surprised when he heard this. Yan Song was also sitting there thinking about it, knowing that Jiajing was behind him. If it weren't for Jiajing's intention, Tu Qiao would not have avoided them. Tu Qiao has always been cautious, so how could he suddenly impeach the prefect of Shuntian Mansion? He was a third-rank official!
"What should I do about this?" Lu Ben said and looked at Yan Song. Although he was the chief minister of the cabinet, he might be involved in this matter, and he was a little panicked.
Yan Song looked at Xu Jie and asked, "Geither Xu, tell me?"
"I have no objection here. After all, the impeachment memorial of Zuodu Censor must be given to the emperor for his purpose. Now, Tu Qiao is not in the capital, and this memorial cannot be delayed!" Xu Jie said, touching his beard.
"Yeah!" Yan Song looked at Lu Ben, who was still hesitating, and thought for a while and said, "Please deduct it, send someone to chase Tu Qiao immediately and ask him to come back as soon as possible!"
"I can't catch up, Master Lu!" Xu Jie waved his hand and said. They actually knew that Tu Qiao was not in the capital, but wanted to send this memorial to the emperor, so that the cabinet could not delay it.
"Hey, third-rank master, what did he think!" Lu Ben was also very angry at this moment. He had only been the prime minister for a few days, and such a big thing happened, and he was his disciple.
"Send the official position, as Xu Ge Lao said, it can't be held back. However, we need to talk to Tu Qiao. After he comes back, we must have a good chat. This is not possible. The surrounding area of the capital has suffered a severe blow. At this time, take down the prefect of Shuntian Prefecture and who will take this position? Who dares to go? Isn't this a problem for us?" Yan Song sat there and persuaded Lu Ben and said, and Lu Ben nodded in sigh.
Then, Yan Song called out a minister and asked them to send memorials to the Silijian. They were waiting here for the emperor to summon him. After all, if you impeach the third-rank official, you must ask for their opinions.
Chen Hong was on duty on the Silijian side. After seeing the impeachment memorial, he did not dare to neglect and immediately went to the Danfang. Jiajing was still reading the memorial at this moment. Chen Hong went to the stove and immediately knelt down, presented the impeachment memorial with both hands, and said, "Emperor, the left censor Tu Qiao impeached Yuan Qiwang, the prefect of Shuntian Prefecture!"
"Huh?" Jiajing heard this, put down the memorial in his hand, took it, opened it and looked at it, and became more angry the more he looked. "It was passed on to the cabinet ministers Lu Ben, Yan Song, Xu Jie, the commander of the Jinyiwei, the censor Tu Qiao, and the minister of justice Gu Yingxiang." Jiajing said to the eunuchs beside him.
"Yes!" The eunuchs went out immediately, and Jiajing stood up at this moment, walked towards the dock platform, and sat on it. Soon, the ministers received the news that Jiajing had summoned so many officials this time, which surprised Yan Song. Before, Jiajing had summoned three people at most, but this time, he actually summoned so many.
Several people rushed over and knelt down.
"Get up, give me a seat, where is Tu Qiao? Why haven't you come yet?" Jiajing sat there, not seeing Tu Qiao, and asked.
"Go back to the emperor, Tu Qiao is heading to Hejian Mansion!" An eunuch came over and bowed his hand and said.
"Oh, that's OK! Do it all!" Jiajing said. At this moment, the ministers realized that the place was very warm, but there was no burning a basin of carbon. Yan Song was most afraid of the cold. Now he felt that it was too comfortable here and wanted to figure out what was going on? "Lu Bing, Gu Yingxiang, you read the memorial first!" Jiajing said and gave the memorial to Lu Fang next to him. Lu Fang took it and gave it to Gu Yingxiang.
Gu Yingxiang and Lu Bing watched. After watching, both of them were very surprised.
"Tell me!" Jiajing sat there, closing his eyes and said, "I'm tired of reading memorials these two days."
"Your Majesty, it's not good to move the prefect of Shuntian Prefecture at this time! The victims outside are still waiting for disaster relief. Sudden replacement of Shuntian Prefecture may cause slow disaster relief!" Lu Ben sat there and bowed his hand and said.
"Yes, the emperor, I mean that's the same!" Yan Song also bowed and said. Jiajing didn't say anything, just closed his eyes. Lu Ben looked at Yan Song, and neither of them knew what to do.
"Your Majesty, my suggestion is to investigate Yuan Qiwang immediately. I believe that Lord Tu will not impeach him randomly. Besides, the matter here is so detailed, it is probably true!" At this time, Lu Bing bowed and said, Yan Song looked at Lu Bing in surprise.
"Gu Yingxiang?" Jiajing called Gu Yingxiang.
"I, I also think that Commander Lu's statement is appropriate. Since it has been illegal, we must arrest him!" Gu Yingxiang was stunned for a moment, and still bowed his hand and said, he didn't come here many times.
"Where are you three?" Jiajing opened his eyes at this moment and looked at Lu Ben and the other two.
"Your Majesty, it's easy to arrest, but who will serve as the prefect of Shuntian Prefecture and who will take over this business?" Lu Ben immediately bowed and asked.
"Let the Minister of Revenue temporarily supervise and be responsible for disaster relief. The Ministry of Personnel will assess officials as soon as possible!" Jiajing said.
"Yes, then!" Lu Ben wanted to say something, but now nothing is useful.
"Lu Bing!" Jiajing suddenly spoke.
"I'm here!" Lu Bing immediately stood up and bowed his hand.
"Accusing people, cooperate with the Ministry of Justice's investigation!" Jiajing said.
"Yes!" Lu Bing immediately bowed and said,
Yan Song and the other three were very shocked. Jiajing had never been so decisive in recent years. He would have asked the cabinet before. If the cabinet said he would not arrest him, he would slow down, but now, he would arrest people directly.
Then Jiajing sat there with his eyes closed.
"I'm going to take my leave!" When Lu Ben saw this, he stood up and bowed and said. Jiajing waved his hand and signaled them to leave. After the few people left, Lu Ben looked at Lu Bing, snorted coldly, and left. Lu Bing also sneered and left!
"Emperor! I will read the memorial to you?" Lu Fang stood there and asked.
"Where is Zhang Hao, why didn't you see Zhang Hao?" Jiajing asked.
"I don't know, I came here in the morning and was here. Maybe something happened!" Lu Fang started to speak.
"Send someone to find him. I have something to leave to him!" Jiajing said, touching his temple.
