Chapter 253: Punishment before the Fengtian Temple

These problems already existed in the past, and in the past, they only existed in what you know and I know, and now Xie Zhi has said this problem seriously, which is equivalent to completely putting what originally existed in the dark on the surface.

Since Emperor Hongzhi chose to deal with this problem in this way, Xie Zhi began to read it out according to Emperor Hongzhi's instructions.

How many old firearms are missing, how many new firearms are improperly kept, how many military names are impersonated, and how many escapees.

At this time, the matter that cannot be put on the table of the Shenji Camp is completely exposed to the public.

Liu Yuan, as the commander of the Shenji Battalion, one of the three major battalions of the Beijing Army, was qualified to participate in this court.

After a stick of incense, Xie Zhi finally finished reading.

After Xie Zhi finished reading, Emperor Hongzhi shouted: "Admiral Liu, you come forward." ”

Liu Yuan, who was called by name, got up and stepped forward, and knelt down directly in front of all the ministers.

Liu Yuan now estimates that Xie Zhi hates Xie Zhi to death, this kind of problem exists in all the guards, but Xie Zhi is biased but the magic machine battalion is open, how can he not hate Xie Zhi.

In fact, if when Xie Zhi came to the door, Liu Yuan could take the initiative to cooperate with the investigation of the problems existing in the Shenji Camp, why bother to shake out all the ugly things in the Shenji Camp in such a large public.

In this way, I don't know how to deal with it first, and I don't have face, that's for sure.

Liu Yuan was shouted to the front, and Emperor Hongzhi did not ask him again, but asked all the ministers: "Xie Zhi has heard what he said, let's talk about it, how to deal with the affairs of the Shenji Battalion." ”

It's very difficult to speak at this time, in fact, no matter which matter which one of the Shenji Camp is enough to be punished with extreme punishment.

But if anyone speaks first, they will either offend a large number of guards represented by the Shenji Battalion, or they will be attributed to the Shenji Battalion.

No matter what you say, it can't be pleased.

Even Xie Qian and the others in the cabinet did not speak, and the others did not provoke this matter.

No one spoke, and Emperor Hongzhi was not in a hurry, nor did he urge, and waited quietly.

The courtiers below touched their sweat one by one, and Emperor Hongzhi, who had always been kind to everyone, did not have the slightest understanding this time, and looked at the courtiers below coldly.

Time passed, and the courtiers probably knelt for an hour.

Many old and frail people fell one by one, and all those who fell were all supported and taken down by the captain of the Jinyi Guard.

Emperor Hongzhi only wanted to punish and suppress the mutual cover-up between the courtiers, but he didn't want to kill many courtiers because of this.

After some courtiers were taken down, Emperor Hongzhi said coldly: "If you feel that you are not in good health, you can go down to rest, and those who go to rest must come up with a solution to the problem of the Shenji Camp." ”

If it weren't for Emperor Hongzhi's request in advance, it is estimated that many courtiers would have pretended to faint.

Who doesn't have a tricky eye for stealing?

After this special request of Emperor Hongzhi, it is estimated that many people will have to hold up for a while, and this matter may not be easy to solve.

If Emperor Hongzhi directly ordered to solve the problem of the Shenji Camp, then the people who were touched on their interests hated Emperor Hongzhi, and if they could come forward to give advice on this issue, then they would be the ones who were hated.

In addition to this consideration, we can also understand the loyalty of some of these courtiers, and see if these people can have the courage to take responsibility and dedicate themselves for the interests of the court.

It's a pity that there is no such person.

Seeing that more and more people were being carried down, there was no one who took the initiative to speak.

Emperor Hongzhi was disappointed, that is certain, on weekdays, those courtiers say words of loyalty, but in fact, no one has said anything to solve an obvious problem, let alone when the court is in trouble.

I didn't see anyone speak for a long time, Zhu Houzhao was in a hurry, he stood up and was snatched by Xie Zhi before he could speak.

Now that he has come to this point, whether it is a civil servant or a military general, he is already offended, and the only bargaining chip to keep himself safe is Emperor Hongzhi and his son.

Emperor Hongzhi clearly did not want to be told by himself or his own son about the solution to this problem.

Since this is the case, then it is up to Xie Zhilai to speak.

The question of backing the pot is not the most important, as long as you can get the greatest benefit for yourself, you will also back the blame!

Xie Zhi spoke out and said, "Your Majesty, the minister has thought of a way. ”

When Xie Zhi was leaving, he also secretly glanced at his father, at this moment his father had beads of sweat on his face, his face was expressionless, and he was not sure what to think in his heart.

But in general, even if his father doesn't express his position, it is all in his camp, and maybe someone will take revenge on his father because of their relationship.

Xie Zhi slowly spoke, and said: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that the problem of the Shenji Battalion is quite serious, and it is no longer suitable to serve as a Beijing army specializing in firearms, especially with the current commander commanding is not suitable, you can directly select suitable people from the Shenji Battalion to rise, and those who are the main generals of the Shenji Battalion can be demoted and continue to stay in the battalion, and those who are quite serious can be transferred to the border army." ”

The gap between the status of the border army and the Beijing army is very large, and it is completely one heaven and one earth.

After a pause, Xie Zhicai said again: "Although he made a mistake, he was also born as a soldier, and as a general, he should defend the honor of the soldier, even if he wants to die, he should die on the battlefield where he fights with the enemy, and he should not lose his life because of greed for ink." ”

It is estimated that many people did not expect Xie Zhi to come up with such an idea.

Xie Zhi had the experience of Emperor Hongwu back then, and he also deeply understood that blind killing could not solve any problems.

Most of the people he found were guilty of breaking the law enough to cause death.

But this kind of problem not only exists in the Divine Machine Camp, but also in other places, and it is difficult for these people to be killed.

Even if these people are killed, those who are promoted will soon have the problem of greedy ink.

The only feasible and effective way is to give some spiritual support, and the effect may be better.

When everyone was surprised, Xie Zhi said again: "How can there be no mistakes in life, training in these places is not enough, and it is also very easy to make contributions in the border areas, giving it a chance to reform themselves, and it can also train a group of elite soldiers for the border army. ”

Xie Zhi's suggestion can be said to be the best of both worlds, which not only solves the problem of dealing with the Shenji Battalion, but also does not offend too many people.

After Xie Zhi's suggestion, someone soon agreed, saying, "The minister seconded the proposal." ”

Xie Zhi turned his head and looked, it turned out that his father was the first to second.

His father is also true, Emperor Hongzhi obviously wanted to get some advice from people other than him, in such a simple way, he couldn't have thought that if he had said it earlier, why should he be roasted by the sun for so long.

This is also Emperor Hongzhi's reluctance to let him speak, otherwise Xie Zhi would have said it a long time ago.

As Xie Qian seconded the proposal, Liu Jian, Li Dongyang and others also said immediately and replied: "The minister seconded the proposal." ”

The three scholars in the cabinet often represent the weather vane, and the things they second, then say, there will definitely be no possibility of offending Long Yan.

After all, the cabinet people often went in and out of the emperor's side, and among the foreign ministers, only the cabinet scholars knew the emperor best.

With the secondment of the three scholars of the cabinet, the courtiers who were scorched finally found a way, and successively said: "The ministers seconded the proposal." ”

Now that most of the ministers have spoken, there is no need for Emperor Hongzhi to be embarrassed.

The ones that should be beaten have been beaten almost.

But he still had a cold face and shouted in a deep voice: "Get up." ”

Fengtian Temple did this before, that is, they all suffered a crime, and in the end, it was Xie Zhi's solution.

Although it is such a set of processes, it also plays a beating role for these courtiers, and it can be regarded as a test.

The result was that he failed to satisfy Emperor Hongji, but he also gave up.

In the face of gains and losses, loyalty has only become a verbal word.

After the matter of Fengtian Temple was over, Xie Zhi, Zhou Xian and Zhu Houzhao followed Emperor Hongzhi to the Warm Pavilion.

Xie Zhi just said a few words about that matter, and the specific operation had to be explained by Xie Zhi again.
