Chapter 147: Your Majesty collapses
The beggar led by him was so frightened that he didn't dare to come out, looked up at Wang Shouren, hesitated for a moment, and then said, "Every month...... Someone always dressed us in clean clothes, took us to the barracks, and lined up to pay the army. ”
Emperor Hongji's head buzzed.
Wang Shouren's military membership has made him like a bolt from the blue, and this beggar's words are like the hammer of the thunder god, from the body to the soul, smashing his hard-working heart!
Ma Wensheng opened his mouth slightly, chilled all over, and couldn't say a word.
Li Dongyang, Liu Jian and others were equally shocked.
"You said that there are more than 1,000 beggars outside the palace, all of whom are people who have received the empty sound?"
Wang Shouren said: "I'm afraid it's more than ......"
At this moment, there were many beggars kneeling outside the palace, and even the soldiers and horses of the five cities and the Shuntian Mansion were also alarmed, but fortunately, Wang Yue was there, so they were not arrested.
In the main hall, everyone was terrified.
Dai Shan's cloudy eyes lit up, just after praising Yan Chengjin a few days ago, this kid poked Daming out of a big hole, good!
Isn't the duty of the Metropolitan Procuratorate to supervise the government and the opposition?
What a great achievement!
Dai Shan was ecstatic in her heart, and knelt down with a pop, and the other officials of the Metropolitan Procuratorate also knelt down.
"The Metropolitan Procuratorate, I beg Your Majesty to thoroughly investigate the person who eats the empty sound!"
Yan Chengjin was stunned, and at this moment, he was standing alone.
"Yan Chengjin, kneel down." Dai Shan waved at him.
Dai Shan asked His Majesty to investigate thoroughly, but it was not within Yan Chengjin's deduction......
Dai Shan is a Jinshi in the last years of Tianshun, is an upright minister, Dai Shan's upright is mainly due to his upright father Dai Xi, Dai Xi was a professor in Jiaxing, is a very proud person, there were gentry who bribed him heavily, in order to let their slaves go to school, Dai Xi resolutely did not do it, so he lost his position.
Dai Shan's temperament is very similar to Wang Shu, and he was recommended by Wang Shu to become the deputy capital of the imperial history, and like Wang Shu, he is also an unpopular person in the court.
Yan Chengjin didn't dare to conclude that he was absolutely clean, but he shouldn't have his share.
Although the rectification of the Beijing camp is dangerous, the benefits brought by it are even greater.
You can further gain the trust of Emperor Hongji.
Take a step closer to the position of Li Dongyang and the others.
Now in the court, Emperor Hongzhi trusts the cabinet of three people the most, and there is no one to replace.
It takes great merit to break this deadlock and become the fourth.
The Beijing camp eats a large amount of military pay every year, and if it is not poked out, it will be difficult for the prosperous era to come.
In the Jiajing Dynasty, Yan Chengjin may not dare to do this, but the risk of the Hongzhi Dynasty is much smaller.
The partisan struggle between the civil and official officials in the Hongzhi Dynasty had not yet been formed on a large scale, and the interests of the ministers in power and the ministers under them did not coincide.
In power are Li Dongyang, Liu Jian and others, and they are not empty.
In other words, their interests are not touched.
Coupled with the fact that Emperor Hongzhi was in power, it was not difficult to rectify the Beijing camp.
There was silence in the hall for a long time.
Emperor Hongzhi took a deep breath, showed a murderous gaze, looked directly at Wang Shouren, and asked weakly: "Do you know who ate the empty sound?" ”
Wang Shouren shook his head: "The minister doesn't know." ”
"Order the three law divisions to work together to investigate, I will never forgive, retreat from the dynasty..."
The three beggars were already frightened, but no one cared about them, and the civil servants were no better, and they all trembled with fear.
Such a big thing happened in Jingying, and Ma Wensheng was full of guilt.
Yan Chengjin was about to follow the hundred officials out of the main hall, but the weak voice of Emperor Hongzhi came: "Yan Chengjin, you stay." ”
Liu Jian couldn't bear it, and persuaded him: "Your Majesty is okay?" ”
Emperor Hongzhi shook his head: "All go out, I only want Yan Chengjin alone." ”
The hundred officials and eunuchs all withdrew from the main hall, and Xiao Jing closed the door of the main hall with his hand.
There was a squeak and echoed through the hall.
In the empty hall, only Emperor Hongzhi and Yan Chengjin were left.
Emperor Hongzhi's face was miserable, and he asked weakly: "You have long known about the corruption in Jingying?" ”
"The minister has a word......
Emperor Hongzhi glared at him, his eyes were split, he wanted to kill at the moment.
Yan Chengjin nodded honestly: "Yes, before the minister told His Majesty, he knew about it, and only then did he advise the Beijing camp to be rectified, in fact, the minister also heard it from Lord Wang Yue, does Your Majesty still remember that Lord Wang Yue was appointed as the governor of the five armies and in charge of the military registration?" ”
Emperor Hongzhi's lips curled: "Why didn't he come and tell me in person?" ”
"He said it, will His Majesty trust him?"
As if someone had told him through, Emperor Hongzhi's heart trembled.
Yan Chengjin continued: "Lord Wang was in the previous dynasty, and the eunuchs were in collusion, although he had the heart to change his ways, and wrote "Confession Chronicles" to make his intentions clear, but once a son of heaven and a courtier, he knew that no matter what, he could not get the trust of His Majesty, so he did not dare to speak directly to His Majesty. ”
Tears fell from the corners of Emperor Hongzhi's eyes, and there were only 60,000 left in the 140,000 Beijing camp, and he didn't even know it.
Yan Chengjin can understand his feelings, as if he has worked overtime for more than ten years, and the things he made have not been preserved.
A broken heart is like a shard of glass.
When this happens, everyone will collapse, right?
"Minister...... Quitting? ”
Emperor Hongzhi waved his sleeves, and Yan Chengjin bowed and withdrew from the main hall.
Opening the door of the palace, Li Dongyang and others rushed up and surrounded him: "How is Your Majesty!" ”
"Your Majesty is just angry for a while, hiding his face and crying, so he has this painful cry, you don't have to worry, just cry." Yan Chengjin comforted.
"Lao Gao, this palace has never seen my father cry, will my father cry too? Hongu came to take a look. Zhu Houzhao looked serious.
The ministers are blue-faced!
Zhu Houzhao: Are you still human?
Zhu Houzhao saw that the situation was not right, so he walked to the side stupidly, leaned on the window, pulled out a paper eye, and looked in curiously.
My father is a person who stands up to the sky, how can he cry.
But Zhu Houzhao saw that Emperor Hongzhi was sitting on the dragon chair dejectedly, hiding his face and crying.
Yan Chengjin didn't dare to get too close to him, for fear of being beaten, so he slipped away quietly.
Leaving the palace just needs to pay attention to safety, Wang Yue has already put on a green steel sword, a 10,000-stone bow on his back, and waited for him to come out with the elite.
"Virtuous nephew, how is the situation in the palace?"
"Your Majesty is depressed, and it will be fine in two days."
Early the next morning,
Yan Chengjin knew that Emperor Hongzhi announced that there was no need to go to the early dynasty......
He was taken aback.
After Emperor Hongzhi succeeded to the throne, he changed the two dynasties in one day to three dynasties in one day, rain or shine, and never slackened off.
But don't go to court today?
The Zhang brothers and Chang Ningbo and others were very happy, turned around and went back to sleep.
The three law divisions and the East Factory are thoroughly investigating the matter.
Two days have passed, and there is still no need to go to court.
Wang Shouren was nowhere to be seen, Yan Chengjin thought about it, and went to the Jingying campus with Wang Yue.
I saw a man on a horse, commanding the soldiers of the 12th Regiment and Battalion majestically, turning to the left for a while, and turning to the right for a while, which was very energetic.
Taking a closer look, Yan Chengjin was suddenly stunned.
Is it Zhu Houzhao?
Zhu Houzhao sat on his horse in high spirits, happily riding his horse in front of the battle: "From today on, I am the mighty general who commands the three armies, Zhu Shou!" ”
Drink!
The whole army is solemn.
More than a dozen thousand households were on the sidelines.
What's the situation? What about Wang Shouren, because Mao is Zhu Houzhao, this dog thing is practicing, and the British Duke is also there, so no one cares about it?
Yan Chengjin had many questions in his heart.
Zhu Houzhao suddenly shouted: "That dog thing is stunned, what about your armor, it's you, huh...... Oops, why are you here? ”
Zhu Houzhao rode over with a smile.
At this time, he was wearing a military uniform, obviously taken from which Qianhu was picked, a little wide, and he was a little majestic.
Yan Chengjin snorted coldly: "Your Highness is so nonsense, aren't you afraid of Your Majesty's dragon whip!" ”
Zhu Houzhao smiled proudly, took out a will from his arms, and threw it over: "Who do you look down on, it is the mighty general who was canonized by my father and the emperor." ”
Yan Chengjin opened the holy decree: Fengtian carries the emperor, and the edict says, rewards virtuous labor, is the book of the imperial court, showing the pro-virtue, but also the love of the son of man, the prince is virtuous and virtuous, and now Zhu Shou is a mighty general, commanding the military affairs of the three armies in Beijing, admiring this.
It is stamped with a large seal, and there is a dragon seal anti-counterfeiting mark at the bottom.
After reading the holy decree, Yan Chengjin looked at the British Duke Zhang Mao on the side, Zhang Mao sighed and nodded at him.
"This decree is true."
"It's not an overkill."
"............" Yan Chengjin.
