……
Under the attention of hundreds of officials, between slowly stepping out of the ranks, Zhao Junchen's brows furrowed slightly, as if he was thinking about countermeasures.
In fact, at this time, what he should say and what he should do, Zhao Junchen had already imagined it when he made the plan.
But in order to avoid the suspicion of hundreds of officials, Zhao Junchen still had to pretend to be "caught off guard" and "think hard about countermeasures".
Zhao Junchen understands that now under the impeachment of Huang Yourong and his party, the two major yamen of the Ministry of Household and the Ministry of Industry have lost 19 officials in one go, and all of them are Zhao Junchen's "cronies", although this is a plan promoted by Zhao Junchen himself, but Zhao Junchen's friends will only think that Huang Yourong's counterattack is fierce and difficult to defeat without knowing the truth, and now it must be demoralization decline and panic!
Therefore, at this time, Zhao Junchen not only needs to exonerate himself and Zuo Lanshan, but also has a tough attitude, only in this way can he show his determination to protect the officials under his door, and only in this way can he stabilize the hearts and morale of the people!
……
So, after standing still, Zhao Junchen's expression finally regained his former calm and calmness, and he seemed to have thought of a countermeasure!
Seeing Zhao Junchen's calm look, as if he was confident, Zhao Junchen's friends also showed joy, obviously after such a long time of getting along and understanding, they were already deeply confident in Zhao Junchen's wit and means.
"Your Majesty, the minister does have something to say!" Zhao Junchen's voice was calm, and he said slowly: "The country has laws. Obey! Cheng Yuandao Cheng Ge Lao's words, the minister also agrees! However. As far as the minister knows, according to my Ming law, whether an official is guilty or not depends not on whether there is impeachment in the imperial history, nor on whether there is conclusive evidence of guilt, but in the final judgment of the three legal divisions! Now, the officials of the Ministry of Industry and Household have been impeached by Zhang Shaofu and Liu Yushi. The two adults also listed some incriminating evidence, but after all, the three law divisions have not yet interrogated and tried, which means that the matter has not yet reached a specific conclusion, why are some adults already eager to shout and kill my workers and households?! It is difficult to do it, in the future, as long as you collect some news that you don't know whether it is true or false, and then throw it out in the morning, there is no need for interrogation by the three law divisions. Can the matter be decided? Our Ming Dynasty should not have such rules! ”
Speaking of which, Zhao Junchen looked around, and stopped a little on the faces of those officials who advocated "rectifying the work and the household", and his eyes were full of majesty and fierceness, so that many officials subconsciously avoided their eyes and did not dare to look directly at Zhao Junchen!
After a pause. Zhao Junchen said: "What's more, even after the verdict of the Three Law Divisions was announced, the officials of the Ministry of Industry and Household who were impeached were indeed guilty, and that was just an example, if it was only for this reason." It is necessary to clean and rectify the two major yamen of the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Households, is it too much? The Ministry of Household is in charge of the world's money and grain, and the Ministry of Industry is in charge of water and soil engineering. They are all important yamen of the imperial court, once they are cleaned and rectified, so that the two major yamen cannot operate, the turmoil caused by this, and the court affairs that are delayed because of this, who should be responsible for it? ! ”
Seeing Zhao Junchen's words, he was already clever and suppressed the momentum, and Huang Yourong had to go out to fight with Zhao Junchen.
I saw Huang Yourong snort coldly and said, "Lord Zhao! You're a strong word! Officials are guilty, so naturally they should be asked! If the yamen is erosive, it is natural that it should be cleaned and rectified, and the responsibility of the yamen's brain should be pursued! Could it be that because the functions of the two major yamen of the Ministry of Household and the Ministry of Industry are important, they will be allowed to erode? If so, under the fear of the tail, do I still have to manage the officials of the Ming Dynasty? ! I think you're a thief! Shelter the Friends! Take responsibility for yourself! ”
Facing Huang Yourong's questioning, Zhao Junchen didn't give an inch, and snorted coldly: "I think Huang Ge is the one who is the one who is reasonable!" Yes, if the impeachment of Zhang Shaofu and Liu Yushi is true, then there are indeed some corrupt officials in the Ministry of Industry and Households, but after all, they are only a few, Huang Gelao, why do you say that the Ministry of Industry and Household are erosive? Could it be that as long as there are a few corrupt officials in the yamen, it means that the yamen is erosive?! If this is the case, the year before last, Ganshan and Shaanxi were investigated for corruption and bribery by five officials in a row, does it mean that all the following officials in Ganshan and Shaanxi provinces should be demoted to the people? ! Last year, how big was the fraud case in the autumn of the three provinces? Why don't you see Huang Ge Lao, you advocate rectifying the Ministry of Rites? This year, how many local yamen were involved in the preparation of the fraud case for the Southern Tour? Even the Metropolitan Procuratorate is at fault, does it mean that all the halls of my Ming Dynasty are rotten, and all the incumbent officials from your Huang Pavilion down to the old man need to be replaced? ! ”
Hearing Zhao Junchen say this, Huang Yourong couldn't help but be speechless for a while.
Huang Yourong is a native of Shaanxi, and the two provinces of Gansu and Shaanxi are his local base camps, in fact, the year before last, there were five corrupt officials in Gansu and Shaanxi in a row, and Huang Yourong single-handedly promoted them, just in the name of "corrupt officials" to squeeze out some dissidents who disobeyed him!
And the Ministry of Rites, since Zhan Shanchang was transferred to the Ministry of Households, is currently under Shangshu Lin Wei, and more people are Huang Yourong's people, and they are also Huang Yourong's territory in the court!
As for this year's "Southern Tour Preparation Fraud Case", because it is too widely implicated, it naturally involves a lot of Huang Yourong's forces!
Zhao Junchen's attitude is very clear: If there are some corrupt officials in the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Households, the two major yamen will be rectified and cleaned, then the Ganshan fraud case last year, the Qiuqiu fraud case in the three provinces last year, and the fraud case in preparation for the southern tour this year will be treated equally!
At that time, see if you Huang Yourong suffers or I Zhao Junchen suffers! It's a big deal to die with you!
Zhao Junchen was naturally unwilling to die with Huang Yourong, but Huang Yourong was even more unwilling, so in the face of Zhao Junchen's questioning, he didn't know how to answer for a while.
And Zhao Junchen's tough attitude and fierce backlash all show Zhao Junchen's determination to protect his friends, and it also makes the panicked "Zhao Party" officials secretly applaud!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Zhao Junchen saw that Huang Yourong was speechless for a while, so he naturally pursued after consecutive victories, and continued: "As the so-called people's hearts are unpredictable, the officialdom is even bigger than the forest, and there are all kinds of birds!" All the adults in the list, this official wants to ask, which of you dares to guarantee that there are no corrupt officials in your yamen? If you dare not guarantee it, will it be that in the future, as long as there are a few corrupt officials in a certain yamen, it means that this yamen is corrupted, and the yamen must be cleaned and rectified? If this is the case, the officials are worried day and night that they will be implicated, and the yamen will be rectified from time to time. Can you still do something?! ”
After sneering, Zhao Junchen said again: "If all the adults don't want this situation to appear in their own yamen, why should they use this standard to demand the two major yamen of the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Households?" Is it strict with others and generous with oneself? This is not the virtue advocated by the ancient sages! ”
After saying so much, Zhao Junchen finally turned to face Emperor Deqing and said in a loud voice: "Your Majesty, these remarks of the minister are not to relieve himself of responsibility, nor to be a thief, nor to protect the so-called 'friends', but to consider the imperial court!" Although most of the people in the court are loyal to the country, they are always inevitably mixed with a few corrupt officials, if there are some corrupt officials in a certain yamen, they will only make the officials uneasy, let the people uneasy, and make the world uneasy! ”
Seeing that Emperor Deqing nodded slightly, Zhao Junchen said again: "What does the minister mean, since some officials of the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Households, since they have been impeached, and there are some evidence of crimes, then send the three law divisions to investigate, when the time comes, the clear will be clear, the turbid will be turbid, and the court law will be owned!" However, we must not be too overdone, let alone implicated, otherwise the people will think that the court is full of corrupt officials and dirt, which will damage the reputation of the court! Therefore, in Yichen's opinion, this matter only needs to be pointed! ”
Huang Yourong seized the opportunity, and finally attacked again, sneering: "Point to point? Lord Zhao's words are said lightly, if after the verification of the three law divisions, those impeached officials of the two ministries are indeed guilty, and even their crimes involve Lord Zhao, what should be said? ”
Zhao Junchen glanced at Huang Yourong and reported to Emperor Deqing again: "Your Majesty, if it is verified by the three law divisions, the impeached household officials are indeed guilty, and the ministers will be guilty of dereliction of duty and improper employment!" If under the verification of the three legal divisions, their crimes are related to the ministers, then the ministers are not only guilty of the same crime as them, but also the crime is added to the first degree, and they will never be forgiven! ”
On the other side, seeing that Zhao Junchen had already finished speaking, Zuo Lanshan, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, hesitated for a moment, and then also came out and said: "Your Majesty, the minister and Zhao Shangshu also mean the same thing!" ”
And after seeing Zhao Junchen and Zuo Lanshan's successive statements, Huang Yourong couldn't help but be overjoyed!
Although between the confrontation with Zhao Junchen, he lost face for a while, and under Zhao Junchen's strong words, he failed to achieve the goal of cleaning and rectifying the two major yamen of the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Households, but with Zhao Junchen's guarantee, it doesn't matter if anything!
"Dereliction of duty and negligence" and "improper use of personnel", this kind of crime can be big or small, one only depends on the mood of Emperor Deqing, and the big one is to demote officials to the people, and since then he has lost power; If you are small, you will be punished and scolded, no itching and no pain!
However, judging from the current favor of Emperor Deqing to Zhao Junchen, the final result is naturally a fine of one year and a few words of blame!
But what Huang Yourong values is the assurances behind Zhao Junchen!
According to Huang Yourong, those officials of the two impeached ministries, once they enter the Three Law Division, they will be forced to confess all their crimes under interrogation and punishment, and they are not afraid that Zhao Junchen will not be implicated!
When the time comes, with this guarantee, it will be up to you Zhao Junchen to defend himself!
As a result, Huang Yourong couldn't care about continuing to entangle for a while, and no longer mentioned the matter of rectifying the Ministry of Household Affairs, but turned around and reported to Emperor Deqing: "Your Majesty, no matter what, the impeachment of Young Master Zhang and Liu Yushi is not trivial, and the minister thinks that the three law divisions should be immediately sent to interrogate!" Among them, Liu Quan'an and Liu Yushi are impeached people, with a large amount of criminal evidence in their hands, and they have always been fair, while Yan Pengfei, the waiter of the Criminal Department, is shrewd and capable, proficient in interrogation and judgment, and is the best choice for judges. ”
