Volume 4 Chapter 100 Unreliable
In the past two days, a storm is brewing in the Ming Dynasty, a storm of impeachment of Yan Song, the first assistant of the cabinet.
Yang Jisheng, the imperial historian of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, took the lead in impeaching Yan Maoqing, the secretary of Nanjing's household department, for embezzling salt and attracting revenues.
At the beginning, there was still a little score of the impeachment of Yan Song, although it was rumored and heard, but most of them also had some basis, but later, the impeachment of Yan Song was a bit unreliable, and it became more and more unreliable.
What Yan Song gave and accepted bribes, relying on bribing Xia Yan to take the position, in order to become the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, he stuffed more than 100,000 taels of silver for Xia Yan, and in order to become a cabinet scholar, he stuffed Xia Yan with millions of taels of silver!
What Yan Song bullied the monarch and privately promoted his son Yan Shifan, Yan Shifan was a prisoner, and it only took more than ten years to be promoted from the capital of the five armies of the seventh grade to the Taichang Siqing of the third grade.
What Yan Song fornicated with the Tartars, secretly colluded with Altan Khan through Qiu Luan, in a vain attempt to subvert the Ming Dynasty, change the dynasty and so on.
These are obviously nonsense.
Can Xia Yan take bribes?
Even if Yan Song stuffs money into others, they won't accept it!
When Xia Yan was abandoned in the city, his house was raided, and his family was exiled, that guy, a cabinet chief, had no food at home, and his mansion was similar to that of ordinary people, could he be a corrupt official?
Millions of taels of bribes, what a joke!
There is also Yan Shifan's promotion, Jiajing has approved it, what kind of bullying does it be, where to start?
As for what Yan Song's fornication with the Tartars, it is also a bit ridiculous, Yan Song's fornication with the Tartars is not wrong, because the fornication with the Tartars can bring him a lot of benefits, what is the benefit of fornicating with the Tartars, he can't get a penny, why should he go to the Tartars?
In short, the court officials are impeaching Yan Song like crazy, as if they want to overthrow Yan Song in one go.
Among them, many of them were deliberately done by Yan Shifan to mobilize the new members of Yan Song's party, and of course, there were also some wall-to-wall grasses who misjudged the form, thinking that Yan Song was going to fall, and followed the trend.
Yan Song looked at the half-human-tall folds piled up, and couldn't help but show a gloomy smile on his face.
These are enough, I believe that Jiajing will be bigger than him after watching these recitals!
He sat there and laughed for a while, then he picked up the pile of folds with difficulty and slowly walked towards the Qianqing Palace.
Jiajing is still cultivating, cultivating seriously, because Tao Zhongwen hinted that he has hope of immortality, and he naturally has to cultivate desperately.
At this time, although there is no prince to supervise the country, he is not much in charge of political affairs, in the early dynasty, he simply abolished it, and he rarely saw it, basically the cabinet wrote the vote, and then Huang Jin took a group of cronies and eunuchs to be responsible for approving the red, only when there was a real big event, Huang Jin would ask him to decide.
Huang Jin hasn't looked for him these days, that is to say, there is nothing major happening in the DPRK.
At this time, Yan Song came to the door again.
He felt this strange in his heart, there was nothing big at this time, why did Yan Song come to disturb his cultivation again?
He summoned Yan Song in to take a look, and was immediately dumbfounded.
Good guy, this Yan Song is holding a lot of folds, and he can't see his face behind the folds.
What's going on?
Yan Song struggled to put the fold on the ground, and respectfully performed the courtesy of the monarch and ministers, and then pretended to be frightened and said: "Your Majesty, the crime of Weichen deserves death!" β
Jiajing was in the fog by Yan Song's trick, and he couldn't help but be curious: "Weizhong, what's wrong with you, why are you holding so many twists and turns?" β
Yan Song was still terrified and said: "Your Majesty, these twists and turns are all impeachment of Weichen, Weichen, Weichen has no choice but to personally hug it over and ask the emperor for guilt." β
Wodi Gatian, so many twists and turns are to impeach Yan Song, what did Yan Song do?
Jiajing was dumbfounded and said, "Who impeached you, what did they impeach you?" β
Yan Song was still frightened: "Weichen, Weichen doesn't know how to say it, in short, there are impeachments or anything, as for why they impeached Weichen, it probably has something to do with Yang Cong and Lord Yang." β
Yang Cong?
When Jiajing heard this, he couldn't help but suddenly say: "What's the matter, you have been in conflict with Qingfeng again in the past few days?" β
Unexpectedly, Yan Song shook his head and said, "How could Weichen provoke Lord Yang for no reason." β
So what's going on?
Jiajing couldn't help but ask: "Then why did you say that this matter is related to Qingfeng?" β
Yan Song pretended to hesitate for a moment, and then he said: "This, it is rumored that Lord Yang has often lamented the injustice of the world since he came back from the northwest, he said, he said that he has repeatedly performed miraculous feats but is just a secretary of the Ministry of Rites, and Weichen has not done anything, but he is the first assistant of the cabinet, this world is too unfair!" β
Yang Cong wants to be the first assistant of the cabinet?
Well, it's really possible.
At least, that's what Jiajing thinks.
However, this cabinet chief is not a cabinet leader who can be appointed based on merit alone, age, qualifications, experience, etc., all of which are indispensable.
He shook his head slightly and said: "This breeze is too urgent, you don't have to take it to heart, young man, there is always an impulse." β
Yan Song pretended to be generous and said: "This, Weichen doesn't pay much attention to it, but Lord Yang endlessly impeaches Weichen, and Weichen is also afraid, after all, everyone is making money and slandering the bones!" β
When Jiajing heard this, he shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Don't I know you yet, I won't watch these twists and turns, let him go." β
Unexpectedly, Yan Song insisted: "Your Majesty, no, if you don't look at these twists and turns, it is estimated that Lord Yang will organize people to force the palace!" β
And this kind of thing?
Jiajing turned his face and asked solemnly, "Qingfeng would really do this?" β
Forcing the palace, no emperor likes it, that is, the courtiers want to kidnap the holy will, Jiajing heard it, and naturally felt a little angry.
It seems that the emperor should be in the trap.
Yan Song couldn't help but be secretly proud in his heart, but on the surface, he pretended to hesitate and said: "This, it should be very possible, after all, he has spent a lot of thought, and besides, he is already a little unhappy in his heart, if the emperor does not pay attention, he will be dizzy, and it is normal for him to do some unwise actions." β
Well, this kind of thing is indeed possible, Yang Cong is young and vigorous after all, and it is not surprising that he made a reckless move.
Jiajing stretched out his hand helplessly and said, "What are they impeaching, I'll take a look." β
Yan Song unhurriedly picked up a stack of folds, respectfully handed them to Jiajing, and explained: "Most of these folds are a bit ridiculous, don't be angry when the emperor sees them." β
What he handed over was all Yan Shifan who made people "slander" him later, which looked a bit ridiculous.
What Yan Song bribed Xia Yan, what Yan Song promoted Yan Shifan privately, what Yan Song fornicated with Tartars, what kind of mess is this?
Jiajing saw it, and really frowned.
Immediately afterwards, Yan Song picked up Yang Jisheng's recital again, handed it over and said respectfully: "This is Lord Yang's proud protΓ©gΓ©, Yang Jisheng played it, this recital was passed by the Communications Administration Department yesterday morning, and the other recitals were passed on yesterday afternoon and this morning." Weichen estimates that this time, the reason why so many people impeached Weichen is because of this twist. β
What he meant was that Yang Cong instructed his disciples to take the lead in impeaching him.
Jiajing took the fold and looked closely, his brows furrowed even deeper.
He couldn't help but ask, "This Yan Maoqing won't be so unbearable, right?" β
Yan Song nodded again and again: "The emperor is wise, the reason why they impeached Yan Maoqing so much is probably because Yan Maoqing and Weichen are relatively close." β
It turned out that this was the case, Jiajing heard this, nodded slightly, and said: "Okay, stay behind, you go down first, I will talk to Qingfeng about this matter, you don't have to worry about it." β
