Chapter 293: Imperial Discussion (2)
Shen always knew that Shen Li would go toe-to-toe with him, and said slowly: "This is a big matter, and who in the court doesn't know that Shen Ge Lao and Guo Zhiyuan's father Guo Zhengyu have a good relationship, and they take care of Guo Zhiyuan very much, Xu Xueju and Shen Yizhong have some concerns, and it is understandable to play with a secret fold, as for the actual evidence?" Guo Zhiyuan had already exterminated the remnants of the rebels, Xu Xueju ordered him to withdraw his army, but he refused to withdraw his troops if he still occupied Dongfan despite the order, and also privately swallowed all the captured property and prisoners. ……”
When Shen Li heard this, he was furious and rebuked angrily: "Ridiculous! Who doesn't know that the old man never favoritism, if Guo Zhiyuan has a heart of disobedience, the old man will be the first to spare him! But what you just said is purely chasing after the wind and catching shadows, and you will not accept the life of the monarch outside, so you can say that Guo Zhiyuan has a heart of disobedience, wouldn't it make the meritorious ministers feel cold! Xu Xueju and Shen Yizhong were unfavorable to quell the rebellion, concealed it and did not report it, but they framed meritorious officials, which was obviously jealous and jealous! ……”
Shen Cheng and Shen Li are old rivals, and said unhurriedly: "Shen Ge Lao, you can't say that, it's not bad to be a foreigner, but the key is that Guo Zhiyuan is not a military general, all the civil and military ministers present at the prisoner sacrifice ceremony just now have seen that Guo Zhiyuan is not a village warrior group training, but a tiger and wolf army!" He is a six-grade civil servant, but he has so many elite soldiers under his command, what is his intention?! ……”
Shen Li's heart chuckled when he heard this, this is indeed a difficult question to explain, Guo Zhiyuan's guards are all elite soldiers who have been trained for a long time, and they can never be temporarily recruited to train Xiangyong, which shows that Guo Zhiyuan has long been ambitious, Shen Li is not known for being able to speak well, and he doesn't know how to refute it for a while, and these civil and military ministers present already have grievances against Guo Zhiyuan, and they all reacted to Shen Zhiyuan's reminder, and they all stood up and agreed, proving that Guo Zhiyuan has so many elite soldiers, Very suspicious indeed.
Even Emperor Wanli frowned, when Guo Zhiyuan saw him before, what he said was a temporarily recruited regiment to practice Xiangyong, it seems that he also fooled that kid, Chen Ju knows Emperor Wanli best, he knew that things were going to be worse when he saw his expression, and hurriedly reminded in a whisper: "Shengshang, then Guo Zhiyuan is waiting outside the palace gate at this time, why don't you announce him to the palace and let him explain by himself?" ……”
Emperor Wanli didn't want to draw conclusions so quickly, after all, he was still thinking about the 100,000 taels of tax silver that Guo Zhiyuan promised to dedicate to the imperial court every year, so he nodded, and Chen Ju waved the dust and sang loudly: "Xuan Guo Zhiyuan goes to the palace!" ……”
As soon as Guo Zhiyuan entered the Taihe Palace, everyone's eyes were focused on him, staring at Guo Zhiyuan's hair, this situation seemed to be a little different from what he expected, but at this time he didn't think much about it, and quickly knelt down to salute Emperor Wanli, Emperor Wanli glanced at him, waved his hand and said: "Okay, let's be even, the governor of Fujian, Xu Xueju and Shen Yizhong, who are guarding the right side of Zhangnan Province, jointly impeached you for not obeying the orders of your boss, acting recklessly, colluding with military generals, supporting the army and respecting yourself, and having a heart of disobedience!" How do you explain it?! ……”
Guo Zhiyuan was stunned when he heard this, and said in his heart, Didn't I explain this matter to you, have you already turned the page? However, he knew that Emperor Wanli would never bring up the old matter again for no reason, and then thought of the reaction of the courtiers when he came in just now, he knew that things must have taken a new turn, his brain teaser turned sharply, and he instantly had a response plan, stood up and said loudly: "It just so happens that Weichen is also going to impeach Lord Xu Xueju, the governor of Fujian, and Lord Shen Yizhong, who is the right to participate in politics in Zhangnan Province, this Fujian rebellion, Lord Xu and Lord Shen did not report it, and the handling was unfavorable, resulting in the misery of the people, and they bear unshirkable responsibility!" ……”
Now it was the turn of the Wanli Emperor and the courtiers to be stunned, this Guo Zhiyuan is too chicken thief, people impeached him, he immediately impeached others, this will become a mess of accounts, Shen has always been worthy of being an old fox in officialdom, reacted the fastest, and snorted coldly: "Guo Zhiyuan, one thing is one thing, let's talk about your business first, you are a six-grade Wenchen, and you have raised so many elite soldiers under your command, what is your intention?" ……”
Guo Zhiyuan knew that this matter must have been caused by Shen Yi, but now he finally understood where the crux was, and said with a slight smile: "It turns out that this is the case, these elite soldiers are not from the lower officials, they are borrowed from General Shen Yourong, and this time the lower officials were able to successfully exterminate the rebels thanks to General Shen Yourong's troops......
"Shen Yourong? Is it the president of Huyu Qinyi who likes to take the burden at every turn? Shen never expected that Guo Zhiyuan would suddenly launch another Shen Yourong, which suddenly disrupted his rhythm.
Guo Zhiyuan sneered: "It turns out that Shen Xiang also knows General Shen Yourong?" Then does Shen Xiang know why General Shen Yourong is carrying the burden? General Shen Yourong was in Liaodong and Jizhen in the year and made many miraculous achievements, but because of the false accusations of his colleagues and the jealousy of his boss, he not only failed to get promoted, but was reprimanded, so he resigned in frustration and left, after the Fujian coastal Japanese pirates were raging, General Shen Yourong was ordered to build Haitan and Huyu Water Village without spending a penny and a grain in the imperial court, Wanli 30 years, the Japanese invaders occupied Dongfan, and killed my Fujian merchants and indigenous people in Dongfan, General Shen Yourong braved the risk of a typhoon, went to Dongfan, annihilated all the Japanese invaders, recovered Dongfan, and beheaded hundreds of levels, but was falsely accused of good and meritorious service, not only did not receive a reward, was almost belittled, but fortunately, Zhu Yunchang, the governor of Fujian at the time, was able to save ......"
Guo Zhiyuan became more and more excited, and raised his voice and said: "In the thirty-second year of Wanli, the Dutch wanted to exchange markets with my Daming, but the Holy Lord did not allow it, and the Dutch occupied my Penghu Magong Island. General Shen Yourong has made countless meritorious contributions throughout his life, and the people of Fujian do not know his prestige, but he is still only a general, doesn't it make the meritorious ministers feel cold? Don't say that he is the lower official who has suffered such unfair treatment, and the lower official is about to resign! ……”
Shen Yourong is very famous, but he has not been promoted, what is the reason, the ministers of civil and military affairs present are all well aware, like Shen Yourong, who does not bother with his boss and has a relatively arrogant personality, can be promoted? It's just this kind of officialdom diving. No one will put the rules on the table, but now they have been exposed by Guo Zhiyuan, which made the ministers of civil and military affairs present blush slightly.
And Guo Zhiyuan's cleverness is that if he directly argues for himself, it is difficult to be convincing that Wang Po is suspected of selling melons and boasting, and now he seems to be talking about Shen Yourong, but in fact he is talking about himself, he has made meritorious efforts to quell the rebellion but was impeached, which is extremely similar to Shen Yourong's experience, Guo Zhiyuan said this, these civil and military ministers present are not as unscrupulous as they attacked Guo Zhiyuan just now!
