Emperor Deqing's will is actually very exquisite, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is well-intentioned. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Emperor Deqing hoped that the conflict between the "Zhou Party" and the "Zhao Party" could continue, so that he could fish in troubled waters and make profits, so he did not comment on the impeachment of Zuo Lanshan by the "Zhao Party", so that the "Zhou Party" could continue to target Zuo Lanshan, retaining the fundamental contradiction between the "Zhou Party" and the "Zhao Party".

At the same time, Emperor Deqing did not want the conflict between the "Zhou Party" and the "Zhao Party" to be too intense, so that the situation in the temple would be too chaotic and the situation would be out of control, so he quickly issued a decree to seize the "Huaigufang", temporarily interrupting the impeachment of Song Qiwen by the "Zhao Party".

In this way, the conflict between the "Zhou Party" and the "Zhao Party" changed from a "battle against the attack" with all offense and defense to a "tough battle" with one attack and one defense, and Emperor Deqing could also influence the trend of this conflict to the greatest extent.

It's a pity that although Emperor Deqing's wishful thinking played well, the final trend of this conflict was still out of the control of Emperor Deqing.

As Emperor Deqing's will fell, the "Zhou Party" was silent for a moment, and then erupted like a volcano.

Du Bai of the Imperial History of the Left Capital of the Imperial Court of the Nadu Procuratorate can be described as a disadvantage in the first battle today, this was originally the first time he did things for the "Zhou Party" after becoming the inspector of the imperial history, but not only failed to bring down Zuo Lanshan cleanly, but even affected Song Qiwen under the counterattack of Zuo Lanshan, so Du Bai's mood at this time was inevitably a little suffocated, when Emperor Deqing's will ended, Du Bai wanted to wash away the shame and prove his role to Zhou Shangjing, so he still couldn't wait to speak first.

I saw Du Bai once again walking out quickly, with a solemn face: "Your Majesty, the minister still thinks that Zuo Lanshan's impeachment of Song Shangshu is a trick by Zuo Lanshan to divert focus and the thief shouts to catch the thief, and the minister believes that with His Majesty's wisdom and wisdom, he must be able to see through Zuo Lanshan's trick!" Now, Your Majesty, you ordered the seizure of 'Huaigufang', under the strict investigation of the three law divisions, this matter will definitely be revealed soon, but Zuo Lanshan's various crimes are still undecided, and I implore Your Majesty to order a strict investigation of Zuo Lanshan, and Zuo Lanshan must not be allowed to escape responsibility! ”

As Du Bai's words fell, everyone in the "Zhou Party" came out to echo him!

Ma Sen, the head of the household department, raised his voice and said: "Your Majesty, since Zuo Lanshan served as the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, it can be said that he is greedy and bold, and now it has aroused public anger and public anger. ”

Ye Shanghong, the waiter of the Ministry of Industry, as a nail planted by Zhou Shangjing in the Ministry of Industry, was even more indispensable at this time, and he also walked out of the queue quickly, and said solemnly: "The minister is valued by His Majesty, and he has always been conscientious and does not dare to slack off, but the minister is doing things, but he finds that most of the officials of the Ministry of Industry are only the first to look forward to Zuo Lanshan, and the accounts and public funds of the Ministry of Industry are also controlled by Zuo Lanshan, and there are many vague and strange places, and local officials often complain that the Ministry of Industry has not allocated enough silver taels, resulting in delays in projects in various places. Therefore, the minister believes that Lord Du's impeachment is not untargeted, and hopes that His Majesty can attach importance to it and must not be neglected and appeased! ”

"Your Majesty, there are many rumors in the government and the opposition that the Ministry of Industry is eroding, as the so-called no wind and no waves, the minister thinks that it is better to take advantage of today's opportunity to strictly investigate! ……”

"Your Majesty, as the inspector of the imperial history, in recent years, there have been many reports from local colleagues, saying that the Ministry of Industry blatantly asked for bribes from the local yamen, otherwise it would not have allocated ICBC to the local yamen, and the minister is now investigating this matter in detail, and he feels more and more that there is a big problem with the Ministry of Industry, so the minister believes that there is no falsehood in the impeachment of Lord Du Bai, and the Ministry of Industry has come down from Zuolan Mountain, and it is time to rectify it......"

"Your Majesty, the minister also wants to impeach Zuo Lanshan......"

"Your Majesty......"

Under the leadership of Du Bai and others, in just a short period of time, dozens of ministers came out to impeach Zuo Lanshan, which once again put Zuo Lanshan on the cusp.

In this way, under the attention and expectations of hundreds of officials, the "Zhou Party" did not live up to expectations, and their counterattack was swift and fierce.

However, because Zhou Shangjing did not express his position, their counterattack was still only aimed at Zuo Lanshan, and did not expand the scope of the attack, turning the target to Huo Zhengyuan or Zhao Junchen.

After all, Zhao Junchen is the absolute leader of the "Zhao Party," and if the "Zhou Party" turns its target of attack to Zhao Junchen, it means that the conflict between the "Zhou Party" and the "Zhao Party" will further expand.

However, although the "Zhou Party" was cautious, the "Zhao Party" did not think so, and according to Zhao Junchen's thinking, the larger the scale of this conflict, the better, and the more fierce the battle, the better.

As a result, the people of the "Zhao Party" still did not give an inch, and they all took a firm stand to protect Zuo Lanshan, and fiercely argued with the officials of the "Zhou Party", and even did not hesitate to directly expose the true intentions of the "Zhou Party".

Under Zhao Junchen's secret signal, Huo Zhengyuan was the first to speak and expressed his support for Zuo Lanshan!

"Your Majesty, the minister believes that several of the colleagues who impeached Lord Zuo today are all friends with the scholar Li He, and now there are vacancies in the cabinet, and Li He and Zuo Lanshan are both candidates to enter the cabinet and assist the government, and these colleagues are all impeaching Lord Zuo's move, I am afraid that they have bad intentions, and they are intending to suppress the momentum of Lord Zuo, but they secretly help Li He to enter the cabinet!"

With Huo Zhengyuan's speech, although the "Zhou Party" was only targeting Zuo Lanshan, the counterattack target of the "Zhao Party" was expanded to the university scholar Li He.

Seeing this scene, whether it was Emperor Deqing or the hundred officials in the court, they all frowned, and only felt that the "Zhao Party" was too reckless today.

However, the people of the "Zhao Party" did not think that Huo Zhengyuan's speech was sometimes considered, but they came out to support it.

Chen Dongxiang, the left attendant of the Ministry of Industry, also said: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that what Scholar Huo said is reasonable, the minister has been working in the Ministry of Industry in recent years, and he has the best understanding of the situation of the Ministry of Industry, but the situation of the Ministry of Industry is by no means as unbearable as some colleagues say, and Zuo Shangshu is even more conscientious and dedicated to public service, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a model for hundreds of officials, but it is Lord Ye Shanghong, the right attendant of the Ministry of Industry, since he entered the Ministry of Industry, he has been ambitious, forming parties everywhere, trying to set up Zuo Shangshu, and most of his speeches today are made out of nothing. It's all offensive words, and I hope Your Majesty will learn from it! ”

As Chen Dongxiang's words fell, the counterattack target of the "Zhao Party" had one more right attendant of the Ministry of Industry, Ye Shanghong......

"Your Majesty, the minister agrees with the statement of Scholar Huo and Chen Shilang, Zuo Shangshu's personality, the minister has always understood and admired the most, and the minister will never believe that Zuo Shangshu will do things that deceive the king and bend the law, embezzle and accept bribes! If Zuo Shangshu is so unbearable, how can you, Your Majesty, entrust you with the heavy responsibility of letting Zuo Shangshu lead the power and responsibility of the Ministry of Works? I hope that Your Majesty will be clear! ”

"Your Majesty, the minister has just returned to the center, and he has been serving in the local government before, during his tenure in the local government, because of the matter of the hydraulic river, the minister has dealt with the Ministry of Industry many times, but he has never seen the Ministry of Industry asking for bribes and deducting the ICBC, so some colleagues impeached Lord Zuo, and the minister really can't believe it......"

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that Lord Zuo's impeachment is really wrong......"

"Your Majesty......"

In this way, as everyone in the "Zhao Party" came out to speak for Zuo Lanshan, Zuo Lanshan's situation finally improved.

However, after all, the power and influence of the "Zhou Party" is much greater, so although the "Zhao Party" is trying their best to defend Zuolanshan, Zuolanshan is still in a situation where everyone is embattled and everyone shouts and beats.

At the same time, because the "Zhao Party" was too reckless today, and repeatedly undermined the unspoken rules of officialdom, not only exposing the "Huaigufang" matter, but also under the condition that the "Zhou Party" was restrained, the "Zhao Party" was like a stunned green man igniting fire everywhere, in addition to counterattacking, not only attacked Song Qiwen, the secretary of the ministry, but also successively expanded the counterattack target to the inspector Yu Shi Du Bai, the university scholar Li He, the Ministry of Industry Lang Ye Shanghong and others, looking afraid that the world would not be chaotic.

The practice of the "Zhao Party" has aroused the disgust of many neutral officials, so many neutral officials have also abandoned the position of not being guilty of two offenses, and they all stand on the opposite side of the "Zhao Party".

In addition, after seeing that the "Zhao Party" continued to increase the number of counterattack targets, many "Zhou Party" officials became more and more angry in their hearts, but they finally could not bear it, and without Zhou Shangjing's statement, they had already spoken out one after another to retaliate, and gradually expanded the scope of impeachment of the "Zhou Party." In addition to Zuo Lanshan, such as Huo Zhengyuan, Zhan Shanchang, Tong Huan, and other "Zhao Party" cadres were also impeached by the "Zhou Party" officials one after another.

In this way, apart from the fact that the two faction leaders, Zhao Junchen and Zhou Shangjing, were not affected, the scale of the conflict between the "Zhou Party" and the "Zhao Party" became larger and larger, and later, many "Zhou Party" officials, under the heat of their brains, had forgotten the main goal of the "Zhou Party" today and began to attack the "Zhao Party" officials when they saw them.

As a consequence of the expansion of the scale of the conflict, the "Zhao Party" has become more and more powerless and has become more and more inferior.

Seeing that the "Zhao Party" was gradually unable to hold on, Zhao Junchen, as the leader of the "Zhao Party", was still extremely low-key, as if he was not worried.

It's just that Zhao Junchen's eyes have been staring at Huang Yourong, who has been forgotten by everyone.

As if noticing Zhao Junchen's gaze, Huang Yourong remembered the transaction between himself and Zhao Junchen, and was a little anxious in his heart, and he also looked at Lin Wei, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, and Zhao Zhenghe, the young guard.

Under Huang Yourong's successive urgings, Lin Wei and Zhao Zhenghe hesitated for a long time, and finally came out of the list!
