Chapter 113: Impeachment of Li Dongyang
Yan Chengjin didn't expect that on this day, Yang Baocheng, the head of the three admonitions of Hanlin, came to find him, and there was a treasure word in the word of Hanlin, so he called him Dabao very unceremoniously.
Da Bao smiled and said: "There is a letter of impeachment, the official wants to give it to you, you have been practicing impeachment for a long time, it is better to write one today, hurry up and start writing, don't let people snatch it." ”
It was very common in the Ming Dynasty to let others write the impeachment sparse performance, and when it was generally necessary to impeach an official together, the person with the best writing would be the main writer.
Yan Chengjin was on guard, no matter which eye he used to look at it, he was not the best person in writing.
"Who do you want to impeach?"
"Cabinet Scholar, Li Dongyang!" Da Bao said with a smile.
Really......
Yan Chengjin was dumbfounded.
Although it is said that even the emperor can be impeached, Li Dongyang, who was delayed by the peaceful and prosperous era, is only one point worse than Xie Qian's eloquence.
You impeach Li Dongyang, isn't this the birthday boy hanging, and he has a long life!
Before Yan Chengjin could react, Da Baoji smiled again: "There are also Liu Jian, the first assistant of the cabinet, and Xie Qian, the third assistant of the cabinet, who are also impeached." ”
Do you still want to destroy the Cabinet?
Where do I look like a fool and will I help you write?
However, the news of the three admonitions of Hanlin has always been well-informed, and if the three admonitions of the cabinet are impeached together, there must be something big happening.
Yan Chengjin thought about it and calmed down: "I don't know my lord, why do you want to impeach the three ministers of the cabinet?" ”
Dabaojian was indignant: "The three members of the cabinet are careless of human life!" The Jianzhou Jurchens asked to trade with our dynasty and will return the captives, but the three members of the cabinet said to His Majesty that they should not trade, you say, those Han captives are not fate, this is not the life of the grass Kan, what is it, you can rest assured to write this recital, this official will be co-signed with you, and play together. ”
The reason why Yang Baocheng chose Yan Chengjin as the main writer is not because of his good writing, it is purely because this kid has been in the limelight recently, and he is the champion Lang, even if his writing is not good, it will not be too bad.
Yan Chengjin thought deeply.
Jianzhou Jurchen?
Jianzhou is actually the name of a tribe, in the early Ming Dynasty, Jianzhou was divided into three types, namely Haixi Jurchen, Jianzhou Jurchen and Savage Jurchen.
They made a living by hunting and collecting ginseng, bartering with the Han Chinese, capturing Han Chinese and Chao Xian to grow food and mine for them.
For the Ming Dynasty, Jianzhou really can't trade.
Because in the Ming Dynasty for more than a few hundred years, Jianzhou was like a wall grass, showing goodwill on the three sides of Daming, Chao Xian and Tatar, and whoever gave benefits was towards whom, and it was not docile at all.
Nurhachi is a fierce man who came out of Jianzhou.
This letter cannot be written.
Da Bao Ji and the cabinet of three people, the judgment of the high, the big Bao Ji is for meritorious service, the life and death of the hundreds of Han people and the butterfly effect driven, may really not be able to trade.
"My lord, but the news from Chen Yao, the governor of Liaodong?"
"Huh, how do you know?"
Yes, today's border fortress is not just as simple as asking for trade, it is the Haixi people who raise troops and want to attack Liaoyang City, and the prisoners are probably all captured.
Governor Chen Yao was afraid that the court would blame him, so he temporarily concealed the facts!
The imperial court did not know yet.
By now, Yan Chengjin began to wonder if the exchange of prisoners was fabricated by Chen Yao.
This possibility cannot be ruled out.
Yan Chengjin was thinking about whether to tell Emperor Hongzhi that he should send troops.
After thinking about it, I went straight to the cabinet.
"My lord, I don't know whether to talk about it or not."
Li Dongyang almost didn't have a mouthful of old phlegm: "That's what I said." ”
Yan Chengjin said: "Fang Cai, Lord Yang wants to impeach Li Gong, the lower officials feel that something is wrong, if Jianzhou really wants to trade, in order to show sincerity, he should send envoys to the court to make peace, even the Tatars want iron weapons, dare to come to my Ming capital, the tributary countries all know, my Ming is a state of etiquette, do not kill the envoys, now the two countries trade is such an important matter, Jianzhou did not send envoys, the lower officials are thinking, will there be something wrong with the border?" ”
Li Dongyang thought about this question and seemed to have some truth.
Liu Jian on the side shook his head: "Impossible, Chen Yao was recommended by this official, this person is loyal and upright, and he will not hide it." ”
At this moment, Liu Jian's voice was still in his ears, and a civilian official trotted in: "Three adults, the military department has come to inform and invite the three adults to face the saint." ”
"Do you know what's going on?" Xie Qian asked.
"It is said that a large number of cavalry of Haixi people were stationed outside Liaoyang City, preparing to attack the city."
Liu Jian was slapped in the face in an instant, Li Dongyang didn't care about anything else, His Majesty must be waiting for them, glanced at Yan Chengjin, and said, "You come with this official." ”
Emperor Hongzhi looked at the sparse performance sent back by Wang Zongyi, the left attendant of the military department, outside Liaoyang City, and the wall was cleared ten days ago.
Those people outside the city were the captives in Chen Yao's mouth.
Yan Chengjin followed Li Dongyang and the three into the hall, only to see Emperor Hongzhi furious: "This person is so bold!" ”
Liu Jian's old face was hot and painful, he was the person he recommended.
"The old minister is guilty of the same crime!"
Yan Chengjin really felt a little sorry for Liu Jian.
Liu Jian is very assertive, but looking at people's eyes, it is really not flattering, and historical records record that many of the people recommended by Liu Jian have problems.
For the sake of Liu Jian's face, Emperor Hongzhi took a deep breath, handed the music in his hand to Xiao Jing, and sent it down to circulate one by one.
Ma Wensheng, who had already known the news, said: "Fortunately, Wang Zongyi was sent to patrol the border, otherwise it would have caused a big disaster." ”
Ma Wensheng still clearly remembers that Wang Zhi killed several Jurchens in the previous dynasty and concealed them without reporting, which led to constant friction at the border, and finally the army pressed the border.
Unexpectedly, today, Chen Yao made the same mistake again.
"Wang Zongyi has made meritorious inspections many times, so let him patrol the border in the future." Emperor Hongzhi said.
Wang Zongyi, isn't he the one who was captured with his father?
Yan Chengjin's face is strange, there is him everywhere, with His Majesty's words, this Lord Wang will not think about his wife and children for the rest of his life.
Li Dongyang said: "The current plan is to quell the rebellion as soon as possible, the last time the British Duke and Wang Yue failed to go on the expedition, why don't you send them this time?" ”
Emperor Hongji nodded.
Nowadays, there are not many guards in Beijing.
So he ordered that the British Duke Zhang Mao and Wang Yue once again took command of the expedition, Zhang Mao was the main general, and Wang Yue was the deputy general.
The will was quickly heard, and the army was immediately ready to go.
Zhang Mao was happy on the war horse, he wouldn't be influenced this time, right? Phew...... Unlucky, Zhang Mao hurriedly shook his head.
"Britain is public and slow!"
A long shout frightened Zhang Mao so much that he almost fell off his horse.
Zhang Mao looked at Yan Chengjin who came over, and his mouth trembled: "Don't fight again?" ”
Scared Zhang Mao, Yan Chengjin expressed deep self-blame, of course he still had to fight, he just came to send something to Wang Yue.
"Please also ask the British public not to issue an order, the lower official has something to discuss with Lord Wang."
The British Duke breathed a sigh of relief: "Don't be too abrasive, Your Majesty will change his mind for a while, and it won't be fun." ”
Wang Yue smiled at Yan Chengjin and said, "Don't worry about the virtuous nephew, it's just a few Haixi thieves, and I will cut it clean with one sword." ”
Wang Yue didn't know that he had picked up a hot potato.
"Your Excellency, do you know that the three admonitions of the Hanyuan and the Imperial History of the Imperial Court are waiting to impeach the adults?"
When it comes to those officials, Wang Yue is angry and doesn't fight anywhere, this is not without a target, and his reputation is not just a stinky official.
"What do you mean?"
Yan Chengjin said: "This expedition, if it can be solved without a knife, it is regarded as the best policy; If there is really no way, the army will forcefully suppress the rebellion, which is regarded as the middle policy; Trade with the Jurchens, openness and compatibility, as the next policy. ”
Wang Yue thought about it, but there was also a way to solve it, that is, to negotiate and trade with the Jurchens.
"Have you read my father's book?"
"That's nature."
Yan Chengjin took out a book and handed it to him: "Xia Guan has carefully deduced for a long time, and the answer that is easy to understand is in the book." ”
Bao Gong angrily sentenced the world's public case?
There will be an answer here, Wang Yue looked suspicious.
Before he could open it, Zhang Mao urged Wang Yue.
At the sound of an order, the battalion slowly headed out of the capital.
