Should this impeachment letter be forwarded to Emperor Deqing?
It's a hard question to decide. (The first text is published in the reading room biquge.info)
Lu Chunxiao has served in the Metropolitan Procuratorate for many years and has rich experience, and after experiencing the initial shock of the impeachment letter, he has quickly figured it out.
Although this letter was impeached by Zhang Shunde, the prefect of Heze, Shandong, the spearhead was faintly pointed at the crown prince Zhu Heyu.
It's just that its real intention may not be to plot against the Metropolitan Procuratorate that has now been controlled by the prince's party!
After the early Qing Liu's praise of the crown prince Zhu and Yu, all the arrangements for this southern tour are now as if the prince did it himself, and all the big and small things were arranged by the prince himself. Under such a momentum, all the credit naturally belongs to the prince, but if there is a fault, the prince also needs to bear it - at least it is also a crime of unfavorable supervision.
Now that the crown prince is gaining momentum, at this time, such an impeachment excerpt, regardless of whether the matter is true or not, with the position of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, naturally should not be presented to Emperor Deqing. If the matter is false, Pingbai will add a bΕfold and lose the prince's virtuous name, and if the matter is true, it will be caught by the political enemies of the DPRK and China.
It's just that although this impeachment excerpt clearly refers to Zhang Shunde, the prefect of Heze, Shandong, and alludes to the crown prince Zhu Heyu, Lu Chunxiao always feels that the real intention of this impeachment excerpt may not be aimed at the Metropolitan Procuratorate.
Everyone knows that the Metropolitan Procuratorate is now the base camp of the prince's party, and if this letter is suppressed by the Metropolitan Procuratorate and not presented to Emperor Deqing, once the incident occurs in the future, in the eyes of the world, it is the prince Zhu and Yu who are using their power to cover up their dereliction of duty and incompetence by using the power of the Metropolitan Procuratorate!
In this way, perhaps the crown prince will be fine under the protection of Emperor Deqing, but under the attack of political enemies in the DPRK and China. However, the Metropolitan Procuratorate inevitably carried out a rectification and purge, and the prince's party was able to gain a foothold in the Metropolitan Procuratorate just now. Cleanse and reorganize. It will also lose its fundamental interests.
It can be said that the intentions of this impeachment letter are really sinister, regardless of whether the Metropolitan Procuratorate presented it to Emperor Deqing or not. will deal a blow to the princelings.
Just when Lu Chunxiao's mind was turning, Li Chengru had already dropped the impeachment letter on the table. Snorted coldly: "Nonsense, since His Royal Highness the Crown Prince prepared for His Majesty's southern tour, the local government is there. We've been staring at it. I'm afraid that they will do bad things, the inspection officials arranged one bΕ after another, and we also sent inspection officials to this Heze, if there is such a big thing over there, how can we not know? β
After a pause, Li Chengru added: "Needless to say. The things in this fold must not be true. There must be someone who sees that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is in the limelight, so they fabricate facts to add obstacles to His Royal Highness the Prince. This kind of excerpt, let's dismiss it directly, that is, it is impossible to enter the Cheng Majesty. β
Lu Chunxiao asked, "What if this impeachment is true?" Although we have arranged inspection officials, those local officials have always been accustomed to deceiving their superiors and subordinates, and it is very likely that those inspection officials we arranged were deceived and fooled by local officials. β
Speaking of this, Lu Chunxiao said word by word: "If this matter is true, but we will suppress this impeachment and not report it, and the matter will be more strict, that is, our Metropolitan Procuratorate protects the prince, that is, the Metropolitan Procuratorate is derelict in its duties and the prince is unethical, once the incident happens, we will be driven out of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and there will be no place to turn over!" β
Li Chengru had just come to the Metropolitan Procuratorate not long ago, and he was not as experienced as Lu Chunxiao, but after Lu Chunxiao's mention, he thought of such a deep meaning, and he couldn't help but feel cold.
"What do you mean, that we present this fold to His Majesty?"
After hesitating for a moment, Li Chengru asked.
Lu Chunxiao shook his head with a wry smile and said, "I don't know either." If this matter is false, we will rashly submit the impeachment excerpt, and we will damage the name of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince in vain; If this matter is true, but it is just an accidental event, it is just a personal act, not only do we not press it, but also present the excerpt, and Zhou Shangjing and them will seize the handle, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will have his prestige damaged; Therefore, I am reluctant to present this letter to His Majesty. But if the appearance of this excerpt is deliberate, it is someone who is deliberately doing, and it is not only the prince who is plotting, but also our Metropolitan Procuratorate, and pressing this excerpt down will undoubtedly be a self-defeating way for us. β
Hearing Lu Chunxiao say this, Li Chengru was also in a dilemma, and after hesitating for a moment, he asked again: "Or, let's leave this matter to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to decide?" β
Lu Chunxiao shook his head and said: "The prince's xΓ¬ng son is too upright, if this matter is known to him, we will definitely submit this impeachment letter to His Majesty, maybe the prince will personally ask His Majesty for his guilt." β
During the discussion, Lu Chunxiao seemed to think of something and suddenly stood up.
"Master Lu, do you have an idea?"
Seeing Lu Chunxiao like this, Li Chengru couldn't help but be overjoyed and hurriedly asked.
Lu Chunxiao shook his head and said: "No, I'll go to see the teacher, the teacher is wise and far-reaching, and experienced, there will definitely be a way." β
Lu Chunxiao's teacher is Xiao Wenruan, the prince's teacher, although Xiao Wenruan is now interested in being replaced by He Ming, but after all, it is just a plan, before He Ming came to Beijing, Xiao Wenruan was still the backbone of the prince's party.
Hearing Lu Chunxiao say this, Li Chengru was also overjoyed, and hurriedly said, "I'll go with you too." β
Lu Chunxiao shook his head and said: "No, if someone is really plotting against our Imperial Procuratorate, there must be someone here at all times, Lord Li, you better stay, in case of accidents." β
Li Chengru hesitated, but finally nodded in agreement.
β¦β¦β¦
Because the matter was urgent, it didn't take long for Lu Chunxiao to come to Xiao Wen Ruan's mansion to ask for a meeting.
In the study of Xiao's mansion, Xiao Wenruan sat on the Taishi chair, quietly listening to Lu Chunxiao explain the things before and after and all kinds of concerns, although the matter was heavy and dilemma, Xiao Wenruan experienced countless winds, and his spirit was still calm.
Xiao Wenruan is older than Zhou Shangjing, he is already old and has little energy, but his vision is still old and spicy, and his methods are still admirable.
After Lu Chunxiao finished speaking, Xiao Wenruan closed his eyes and was silent for a long time, and under Lu Chunxiao's nervous gaze, he suddenly said in a trembling voice: "Can you take that fold?" β
Lu Chunxiao didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly held the fold in front of Xiao Wenruan.
After Xiao Wenruan took the fold, he looked at it carefully, then walked to the desk tremblingly, and said slowly: "Polishing ink for old decay." β
Although Lu Chunxiao didn't know what Xiao Wenruan meant, he still didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly sharpened ink for Xiao Wenruan.
Then, I saw Xiao Wenruan take out a letter with the same appearance and began to write on it.
What Xiao Wenruan wrote was exactly the previous impeachment excerpt, and the handwriting and words were the same!
However, a moment later, Xiao Wenruan had already rewritten a copy of the impeachment excerpt, and then handed it back to Lu Chunxiao, saying, "What is the difference between this excerpt and the impeachment excerpt you received?" β
Lu Chunxiao forcibly suppressed the shock in his heart, took the fold and looked at it carefully, and then said: "It's exactly the same, but there are a few more typos in the middle." β
Xiao Wenruan seemed to be a little lacking in energy, and said slowly: "Yes, there are a few more typos, although the Metropolitan Procuratorate has the right and responsibility to impeach the excerpt for His Majesty, but if there is a mistake in the excerpt, it also has the right to reject, and if there is a typo in this excerpt, you can reject it and let Shandong's supervision of the imperial history be rewritten. During this period, it is better to send someone to Heze to see if the matter is true or false, and before that, don't tell Prince SΓΉ about the matter. β
Hearing Xiao Wenruan say this, he solved the matter with a wave of his hand, Lu Chunxiao couldn't help admiring, but he felt that Jiang was still old and spicy.
