In late October, the courtiers saw that Wei Zhongxian's henchmen had been almost completely purged and killed, so they began a gradual impeachment campaign against Wei Zhongxian. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Yang Suoxiu and Yang Weiyuan first attacked Cui Chengxiu to test Zhu Youzhen's mind, and the principals Lu Chengyuan and Qian Yuanyu, and Shi Gongsheng, a member of the staff, then discussed Wei Zhongxian one after another.

Seeing the ministers attacking Wei Zhongxian, Emperor Chongzhen smiled secretly in his heart.

But Zhu Youzhen felt that the time was not yet ripe, and he lacked a wonderful article that could systematically explain Wei Zhongxian's crimes.

Emperor Chongzhen called Wang Zhizheng to the Qianqing Palace, pushed Yang Suoxiu's edict to impeach Wei Zhongxian on the desk, and said to Wang Zhizheng with a smile: "Lord Taifu, you come to read it, these edicts impeaching Wei Zhongxian are all here, written by Yang Suoxiu, written by Yang Weiyuan, as well as Lu Chengyuan, Shi Gongsheng, Mao Yilu, Shen Shaoxian, Wu Jue...... It's all here, you come and read it!"

Wang Zhizheng smiled slightly, read it next to each other with the song, and finally said with a smile: "It's too superficial, and the writing is not thorough enough! In addition, these people are not fair enough, they are all written from the perspective of the Donglin Party, if you use these, it will inevitably make the emperor suspicious of favoritism." ”

Emperor Chongzhen smiled and asked, "Master Taifu thinks, who should write it?"

Wang Zhizheng thought for a while: "It's best to be written by an official who is good at writing and ink, but has no door and no faction." ”

At this time, the eunuch Wang Tiqian, the eunuch of the celebrant Bingbi, came in, bowed down and said, "Your Majesty, Huang Liji, the first assistant of the cabinet, has sent a note. ”

Emperor Chongzhen smiled slightly: "Take it and take a look." ”

Wang Tiqian bowed and presented it with both hands.

Emperor Chongzhen unfolded it and took a look: "Qian Jiazheng, who is this Qian Jiazheng?"

Wang Zhizheng nodded and said: "Oh, this Qian Jiazheng is a tribute student in Jiaxing, and he is the eldest grandson of Qian Wei in the Wanli period. In the first year of the Apocalypse, Xin Youzhong Shuntian was on the deputy list, and he stayed in Beijing to pay tribute to the country. ”

Emperor Chongzhen nodded and said, "The grade is not high, but the family is very good." ”

Suddenly, Emperor Chongzhen was particularly excited and shouted, "Wonderful!"

Wang Zhizheng smiled and asked, "It's well written, right?"

Emperor Chongzhen handed the edict to Wang Zhizheng: "Taifu, you come to read it, and the writing is particularly organized." ”

Wang Zhizheng took a look, and suddenly felt enlightened, he said with a smile: "Qian Jia impeached Wei Zhongxian for ten crimes: one emperor, two contempt, three soldiers, four ancestors and ancestors, five grams of cutting feudal seals, six no saints, seven indiscriminate lords, eight covering the border gong, nine contempt, and ten joints. There are these ten major crimes, which are exhausted in the bamboo of the South Mountain, and it is not enough to write about their treachery, and it is difficult to wash away their sins by breaking the waves of the East China Sea! Fu Qi made a decision in his heart, and ordered the law of Wei Zhongxian to be punished canonically, with the anger of the snow world, and the law of the beginning. ”

Wang Zhizheng stood up and held the note and said: "Your Majesty, this note is well written, and every charge is enough to kill him!

Emperor Chongzhen said with a smile: "Lord Taifu, this is called, send charcoal in the snow! Say Cao Cao Cao arrived! Just now I was still worried that there was no good impeachment of the song, and the song was sent to the door immediately." ”

Wang Zhizheng nodded and said: "This letter is summarized so well, Qian Jiazheng is really a talent!"

Emperor Chongzhen turned to his personal eunuch Xu Yingyuan and said, "You go to Kunning Palace, call Wei Zhongxian over, I want to read it to him personally!"

Xu Yingyuan agreed and withdrew.

Chongzhen smiled and said to Wang Zhizheng: "Master Taifu, I want to read it to Wei Zhongxian and see how he reacts!"

Wang Zhizheng thought for a while and said, "If he is willing to admit his guilt, what does the emperor plan to do?"

Emperor Chongzhen thought for a while and said, "If he is willing to admit his guilt, drive him out of the palace and leave him to fend for himself." ”

Wang Zhizheng nodded and said: "Wei Zhongxian has a lot of enemies, and he can't survive if he leaves the palace." And what if he refuses to confess?"

Chongzhen sneered and said, "If he refuses to admit his guilt, I will exile him to Qiannan and let him be a companion with Pan Sai'an!"

The two were chatting, when they saw Wei Zhongxian walking in with a bow bow, then knelt on the ground and said, "Old slave Wei Zhongxian knocks on the emperor!"

Emperor Chongzhen nodded and said: "Father-in-law, you are old and frail, don't salute, today I got a good article with Master Taifu, I want to hear it to you in the New Year, what do you think?"

Wei Zhongxian didn't know what medicine was sold in Emperor Chongzhen's gourd, but the current Wei Zhongxian was no longer the original Wei Zhongxian, he was awakened by nightmares every day, trembling, and unguarded.

Emperor Chongzhen said to Xu Yingyuan: "Add a chair to Gonggong Wei!"

Wei Zhongxian sat cautiously on the chair.

Then Emperor Chongzhen unfolded the edict, cleared his throat and began to read.

Emperor Chongzhen just read a sentence: "The minister risked his life to impeach Wei for the ten crimes......"

Wei Zhongxian couldn't sit still, and cold sweat began to flow down his forehead.

After Emperor Chongzhen finished reading the ten counts, Wei Zhongxian fell to his knees and cried and said: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, you are aware that someone is framing the old slave and fabricating charges......

Emperor Chongzhen smiled slightly and said: "Father-in-law, don't panic, which minister has not been impeached?

Wang Zhizheng also smiled slightly, and helped Wei Zhongxian to get up: "Father-in-law Wei, you still sit down, since it is Luo Weaving, you don't have to be afraid, after all, it is just a grandstanding statement of a seven-rank tribute student!"

Wei Zhongxian guessed that Emperor Chongzhen cut off his wings, but he was unwilling to punish him, probably to let his henchmen die for him, which had the effect of losing the car and protecting the commander.

Wei Zhongxian sat on a chair like a pins and needles, and set his eyes on Xu Yingyuan.

This Xu Yingyuan and Wei Zhongxian are gambling friends who have not entered the palace, and later castrated themselves into the palace one after another, but the two have never been harmonious.

Xu Yingyuan, who followed King Xin today, has become a big celebrity next to the emperor.

As a result, Xu Yingyuan smiled coldly at him to show his refusal.

Wei Zhongxian had no choice but to keep his head down and not speak.

Emperor Chongzhen waved his hand and said: "Gonggong Wei, you go back and rest, I don't mean anything, I just let you listen to it, see what image you have in the eyes of the courtiers, you have to change your past."

Wei Zhongxian hurriedly knelt down and said sincerely: "The old slave must change his past mistakes!

Emperor Chongzhen waved his hand and said, "Stand down!"

As soon as Wei Zhongxian retreated, Wang Zhizheng and Emperor Chongzhen laughed loudly.

After laughing, Emperor Chongzhen said: "Look, his confession attitude is good!"

Wang Zhizheng laughed and said: "Can a big husband bend and stretch! Wei Zhongxian, born as a scoundrel in the market, he knows how to pretend to be pitiful the most." ”

After hearing this, Emperor Chongzhen restrained his smile and said, "After Taifu said this, I am indeed a little taken lightly. ”
