Chapter 140: Your Highness, take a step to speak
Emperor Hongzhi and Li Dongyang and others were a little expectant, this son was cautious and cautious, and he didn't dare to offend the minister, who would be impeached.
Yan Chengjin held his chin, and sometimes walked the dragon and snake.
"The minister has written."
It's a brother, just let me stick a knife.
He impeached Zhu Houzhao, the crown prince and himself are commensurate with brothers, and today they are forced by Emperor Hongzhi and hundreds of officials, which is really helpless.
Emperor Hongji did not yet know who he was going to impeach.
Xiao Jing presented the sparse performance, and when he saw the sparse performance, Emperor Hongzhi's face turned green, and he glared at Yan Chengjin directly: "The prince is slack in his studies, and the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty know it, so there is no need to impeach." ”
Li Dongyang was still happy, and when he heard that it was the prince who was impeached, his face gradually darkened, and he was angry.
The guy still didn't dare to take the first step.
Yan Chengjin and the crown prince are in collusion, and Zhu Houzhao doesn't care whether others are impeached or not.
Emperor Hongzhi's face was strange, and he sighed: "I really don't dare, you can start the impeachment from me, and I will forgive you for your innocence." ”
The impeachment of the emperor by the officials is not a big deal, especially the imperial history, the son of heaven is played, and the hundred officials are played.
Yan Chengjin's face was embarrassed: "Your Majesty's hard work, the government and the opposition are clear, the people of the world are rich and the country is safe, and the ministers are ...... I really couldn't find any flaws. ”
"If I ask you to play, you will play!" Emperor Hongji was furious.
Wronged.
Strange injustices through the ages.
The emperor actually forced himself to impeach him, and no one believed him when he said it, but such a strange thing fell on him, Yan Chengjin was aggrieved, and suddenly felt that he was more unlucky than Meng Jiangnu.
Emperor Hongzhi also went through foresight, and if he couldn't give full play to his strengths, it was better not to use them.
This son is talented, but he is too cautious, and sometimes in this kid, he can faintly feel that Zhu Houzhao has that annoying feeling.
"After all, you still lack courage and experience."
Yan Chengjin picked up the pen, wrote another letter and submitted it.
Emperor Hongzhi looked at it and frowned, this guy, asking him to impeach himself, still didn't dare.
This time it was even worse, he didn't even know the person who was impeached.
"Minister of the DPRK and China, is there a person named Ma Jue?"
Li Dongyang thought for a while: "There is no such person in the official. ”
Emperor Hongzhi had a bad premonition, this guy was impeached by a flat-headed commoner, just when he was wondering, Ma Wensheng shuddered: "Ma Jue is a dog, how can Lord Yan know about my son?" ”
Yan Chengjin's eyes flickered, and he looked forward to Ai Ai: "I made it up blindly." ”
What nonsense, can I make up my son's name?
Ma Jue has no official and no lu, and he can't say the word impeachment, the person Yan Chengjin really means is his father Ma Wensheng, and for the sake of prudence, he started with Ma Jue.
Ma Wensheng smoked seven tricks, this guy was so annoying, when he was about to argue.
Yan Chengjin handed over another letter of impeachment.
Emperor Hongzhi showed an intriguing smile, and Yan Chengjin finally handed over an answer sheet that satisfied him.
"You want to impeach Ma Wensheng, the secretary of the Ministry of War?"
The audience was silent.
Marven jumped to his feet in anger, His Majesty asked you to impeach him, why did you impeach this official?
Emperor Hongzhi smiled: "It's just practice, but I just said that Ma Qing's family has no way, no obstacles, no need to be angry." ”
After all, it is a family matter to teach the son without a way, and it is far worse than bending the law for personal gain and enslaving the villagers.
Ma Wensheng was not happy.
He is also a short-tempered person, who says something to his face and never hides it.
"Even if it's practice, how can Lord Yan know the name of the dog, this is clearly a premeditated exercise."
Li Dongyang and others also felt that it made sense.
Could it be that you Yan Chengjin can still pinch it?
Yan Chengjin opened his eyes and said nonsense: "The minister really doesn't know, Ma Jue is the son of Master Ma, but today he was sitting in a sedan chair, and I heard that someone claimed to be Wang Fa, and shouted that he was called Ma Jue. ”
Is this a momentary emergency?
However, what Li Dongyang and others paid attention to was another sentence, someone dared to claim to be Wang Fa?
It's the other way around!
Ma Wensheng was so frightened that he almost fainted, trembling: "You...... Don't talk nonsense. ”
Emperor Hongzhi's face sank, Wang Fa is the law of the imperial court, and it is the emperor's instrument of governing the country.
Claiming to be the king's law doesn't mean that he is the emperor.
Xie Qian saw that the situation was wrong: "Yan Chengjin, this is a drill, you can't talk nonsense." ”
"The lower official heard it with his own ears."
Emperor Hongzhi fell into deep thought, and after a while, he said: "Let's get here first today, Yan Qing's family, you retreat first." ”
Ma Wensheng breathed a sigh of relief, is there such a person to practice? stared at Yan Chengjin and gave a look, you can experience it yourself.
"The minister retired."
Yan Chengjin retreated stupidly and walked out of the main hall.
"Your Majesty, Liu Qing of Shuntian Mansion asks to see you." Xiao Jing said.
Liu Qing looked flustered, and walked into the main hall quickly: "Your Majesty, you killed someone at the entrance of the vegetable market, and falsely claimed to be the king, and the minister has taken him into prison, but this person is ...... It is Ma Jue, the son of Ma Shangshu of the Ministry of War, and it is involved in the palace horse supervisor. ”
Everyone's faces changed.
In this way, what Yan Chengjin just said is all true......
It's not enough to kill people, but to dare to claim to be the king's law, which is really arrogant.
Ma Wensheng's feet were vain, and he grabbed the hands of his subordinates on the side, so that he could barely stand, and looked at Liu Qing in a panic: "Lord Liu, can you ...... Don't scare the old man. ”
Liu Qing sighed lightly, he entered the officialdom a few years later than Ma Wensheng, when Ma Wen was promoted to the imperial history of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, he took care of him a lot, but Ma Jue killed an official, and His Majesty would know sooner or later.
Li Dongyang hurriedly asked: "...... killed Who is it? ”
"It's the mine tax collector, Jiang Zong."
Killed the tax superintendent?
Emperor Hongzhi remembered this eunuch, who had served him, and when he was happy, he gave him an errand to supervise the mining tax.
Liu Qing continued: "Ma Jue and Shang Jia opened a coal mine in Xishan, and the mine supervisor made Jiang Zong want to collect taxes, and Jiang Zong collected extremely high taxes, taking five out of ten taxes, Ma Jue was angry and directly beat him to death. ”
If Jiang Zong knew that the person behind him was Ma Jue, he might not dare to be greedy if he was killed.
Ma Wensheng knelt down weakly, and said sadly: "The minister's discipline is not good, and he will be punished by His Majesty." ”
Li Dongyang's eyes narrowed slightly.
At the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, thirty taxes were stipulated, and gradually, even taxes were not collected.
This Jiang Zong really deserves to be punished.
Ma Wensheng had a son in his later years, and the affairs of the military department were busy, and he was unable to discipline him, so he spoiled such a son.
Yan Chengjin came out of the Fengtian Palace, and was about to go to the yamen of the Metropolitan Procuratorate to take a walk, when he saw Zhu Houzhao rushing over with righteous indignation: "Old Gao, I heard that this palace is impeaching this palace?" ”
"Your Highness, that's just a drill."
When Yan Chengjin confessed, Zhu Houzhao's heart hurt as if it had been cut by a sharp blade, and he was unhappy: "The drill will not work, it will ruin the reputation of the palace!" ”
Just came out of Fengtian Temple, Zhu Houzhao's news was too fast......
"How does Your Highness know that it is a minister who is impeached?"
Zhu Houzhao smiled and said: "Xiao Jing, the eyeliner that the dog thing placed next to the palace, called Gu Dayong, was reversed by the palace. ”
Emperor Hongzhi asked Xiao Jing to stare at the East Palace, Xiao Jing asked Gu Dayong to stare at the East Palace, and Zhu Houzhao asked Gu Dayong to stare at the Fengtian Palace?
The eunuch on the side smiled: "Hello Lord Yan, the slave valley is of great use." ”
"Your Highness, take a step to speak."
