Chapter 151 Wei Zhongxian has to stay
The atmosphere inside the hall was a little solidified, and Huang Kezhang's words were too heavy!
If you really want to kill all these people and raid all your homes, then the impact on the government and the opposition will really be too great.
After Huang Kezhang finished speaking, he retreated without caring about himself, but the trouble was thrown to the others present. Especially Han Yi, when he heard Huang Kezhang's words, his heart trembled.
Although Da Ming Law is there, everyone knows and is familiar with it, but if he really does this, his reputation will really stink.
"What do you think of this?" Zhu Youxiao asked expressionlessly.
At this time, Sun Shenxing, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, couldn't stand still.
Others can not speak, but he must not speak. No matter what you say will make Your Majesty unhappy or not, you must say it.
So Sun Shenxing stood up directly and said, "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that this is a bit too much. dismissed the official and seized the post, and the minister thought it was more appropriate. As for the embezzled money, let them return it and impose some more fines. If you really want to kill your head and raid your home, I'm afraid it will make many people feel uneasy. ”
Anyone can see what Zhu Youxiao wants to do, Zhu Youxiao just wants to kill them all, and by the way, he raided his home.
If His Majesty didn't think so, he wouldn't have asked Huang Kezhang, the secretary of the Criminal Department.
Since it was asked, then it should be handled in this way. The Da Ming Law is there, and everyone knows what is written on it.
Since His Majesty asked about the Great Ming Law, he is ready to be strict and serious; If you don't want to be strict, then you won't ask Da Ming Law, which is a very obvious thing.
Zhu Youxiao looked at Sun Shenxing and nodded expressionlessly.
For Zhu Youxiao, Sun Shenxing said this, he was not surprised at all. The main thing is that he wants to see what other people say, just to see how other people perform.
"What do you think?" Zhu Youxiao asked in a deep voice again.
This time, Zhao Nanxing, the waiter of the Ministry of Works, also stood up and said, "The minister thinks that what Sun Shangshu said is reasonable. ”
Zhu Youxiao nodded again, did not say yes, nor did he say no.
He just sat there expressionlessly, silent for a while, and then asked again with a blank face, "Does anyone have any other opinions?" ”
Zhu Youxiao wanted a person to stand up and propose to be severely punished in accordance with the law of the Ming Dynasty. Although the person who did this may be the back, it is a firm statement that he is on the emperor's side. This is very important to Zhu Youxiao.
However, no one spoke, and then a few more people stood up, but they basically agreed with Sun Shenxing's words.
Zhu Youxiao looked at Liu Yijing and asked, "What do you think, Liu Aiqing?" ”
"Your Majesty, the minister thinks it is very safe to deal with it like this." Liu Yijing hurriedly said.
It's just that after saying this, Liu Yijing's heart was full of bitterness. Because he knows what his statement represents, he may have done all the things he did before.
Liu Yijing really didn't expect His Majesty to be so decisive, and he really wanted to kill people with a knife. Whoever stands on His Majesty's side at such a time will really turn his back on this civil bureaucracy.
Everyone fought back and forth before, so it wouldn't have been done so desperately, and Fang Congzhedu landed safely.
Zhu Youxiao nodded, did not look at them again, but slowly stood up, his eyes passed through everyone, and fell not far behind them.
He spoke, "Let the courtiers talk about it." ”
Everyone's hearts froze, but His Majesty was still unwilling.
Everyone has already expressed their position just now, and no one will stand up to provoke His Majesty at this time. If you do, it will backfire.
didn't have the heart to talk to them anymore, Zhu Youxiao turned around and left the hall.
The crowd dispersed, but then word spread.
Zhu Youxiao reclined on the couch with an expressionless face, he didn't care about those people very much, and it had nothing to do with him.
That's not what he wants, if he wants those people to die, just make a holy decree. It's just that what he wants is someone to stand up, someone who is willing to stand up and support himself, the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, despite infamy.
It can be seen from the court discussion just now that although they have sowed discord and used many means, at such a time, there is still no one to support them, and they still regard their respective parties as more important than their own emperor.
They will not deviate from their class, and Zhu Youxiao has also strengthened a belief, that is, to use some people who have no bottom line.
It is not unreasonable for Emperor Jiajing to use Yan Song and Wu Zetian for Junchen, and the emperor sometimes needs someone to support him unconditionally.
You don't need everyone, but you have to have someone to support you.
Otherwise, if you want to implement something, you can't push it down.
Because no one will do things for you, no one will do what you explain, unless you use Dongchang and Jinyiwei. But many times Dongchang and Jinyiwei don't do it, so there is really no one to use it.
Wei Zhongxian had to keep him, which was why he had beaten him up just now.
This is to make Wei Zhongxian have no way out, this is to make him resentful enough so that Wei Zhongxian will become the knife in his hand, ruthless and accurate, he will cut wherever he asks him to go.
"The Emperor." Chen Hong came to Zhu Youxiao's side, and his tone was a little low.
He also knew that his emperor was in a bad mood at this time, so he lowered his voice a lot, and said cautiously: "Hangzhou has just come to report, the fire in Hangzhou City, burning for a day and night, burning more than 6,100 homes, 35 men and women died. ”
Saying that, Chen Hong presented the question book in his hand, and then stood aside silently.
Zhu Youxiao looked at the question book in his hand, and said expressionlessly: "Leave it to the cabinet to deal with, let them come up with a proposal as soon as possible." ”
Saying that, Zhu Youxiao handed the question book back, and his tone was very casual.
For such a long time, Zhu Youxiao sat on the throne, and he found that many things were actually a matter of a question book.
Where there was a drought, where there was a flood, and where there were many deaths, Zhu Youxiao's feelings were not very strong, in fact, it was just one thing or some numbers written in the question book.
As the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, you can see that such things happen every day.
Maybe I used to think that this was a big deal, where there were natural and man-made disasters; But if he really achieved this position, Zhu Youxiao also wanted to manage it in his heart, but many times he was really powerless, which also strengthened his determination to do something.
"Let the cabinet draft a holy decree, Cui Chengxiu, the imperial history of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, is loyal and upright, diligent in royal affairs, and promoted to the right of the Imperial History of the Imperial Palace."
After saying this, Zhu Youxiao closed his eyes and stopped talking.
This position originally belonged to Yang Lian, but now that Zhu Youxiao has given this position to Cui Chengxiu, it is already obvious what it means.
What did Choi Chengxiu do before?
That is, he unconditionally stood on Zhu Youxiao's side, impeached the Donglin Party for forming a party for personal gain, and at the same time said that he would severely punish the Donglin Party.
At the current stall, Zhu Youxiao promoted Cui Chengxiu, and the key position is still the previous position of Yang Lian, what does this mean?
The meaning is self-evident, which means that Zhu Youxiao has officially begun to intervene. As long as you stand on my side this time, there will be no shortage of high-ranking officials.
Chen Hong hurriedly whispered, "Yes, Emperor." The slave and the maid will go. ”
Zhu Youxiao didn't speak, so Chen Hong bowed down and quietly retreated.
Everyone on the cabinet side has just returned, and the expressions on their faces are not very good-looking.
Shi Jihuan looked at Liu Yijing and said with some worry: "Elder Ge, Your Majesty has not dissipated his anger yet, this matter is not easy to handle." ”
After Shi Jihuan opened his mouth, the eyes of several other people also looked at Liu Yijing.
Everyone knows it's not easy, but it has to be done.
Liu Yijing's heart was also very irritable, he couldn't wait for those people to die, what does this matter have to do with him? But he couldn't say.
"yes!" Brushing his beard, Liu Yijing said approvingly: "But if you want to persuade Your Majesty to change your mind, I'm afraid it's not easy!" The case has come to this point, and it is only a matter of sentencing. Dealing with it strictly, or lightly, is His Majesty's business. We can only persuade His Majesty to change his mind and write a question book. ”
This is the way it should be, and it can only be done in this way.
Liu Yijing didn't want to carry this pot, so he made such a decision, but in fact, it was the meaning.
However, he is still very bitter in his heart, because it means that he wants His Majesty to take the blame, but will His Majesty be willing?
If you look at it from your own point of view, there should be someone who stood up and said this, and Your Majesty pushed the boat with the water.
It would be better if a lot of people came out to say it.
But no one would do that, and no one in the cabinet would agree to do so, or no one would dare to do so. Therefore, it is likely that in the end, His Majesty will be annoyed and angry, and will directly issue an order to deal with it.
In this way, their pot will be gone, but His Majesty will also settle accounts with them.
Liu Yijing felt that he was the first to bear the brunt, and it was strange that he could feel good in his heart.
But when things got to this point, Liu Yijing didn't dare to really say anything, so he simply sold it and advocated everyone to put on the question.
When His Majesty takes revenge on him, he will find a way. Your Majesty won't even kill him, the first assistant scholar of the cabinet, right?
Everyone nodded, there was only so much they could do.
However, many people are looking at Han Yi and want to wait for him to make a statement.
Han Yi also realized that everyone was looking at him at this time, so he said, "I will write something else in the question book." Such a felony is just a dismissal from office, which is inappropriate. ”
After Han Yi said this, he didn't speak again, but turned around and returned to his seat.
The people present are also old fritters, as soon as Han Yi said this, they understood, such a serious crime, you will give this such a crime, do you think Your Majesty will agree?
If you write a question book like this, those people's lives really can't be saved.
What needs to be written now is to deal with it severely, but it cannot be a death or dismissal; Even if you want to kill the head, you can't kill them all, you have to protect a few to a limited extent.
In that case, His Majesty may agree.
After comprehending this meaning, Liu Yijing opened his mouth and said: "What Han Ge said makes sense, let's write according to this tone!" ”
Liu Yijing was willing to do this, because it would pit Sun Shenxing out.
