Chapter 130
Wanli listened to the wolves report on Zhu Yidao's glorious deeds, and his face turned a little green. This Zhu Yidao is really popular, he didn't suffer at all in the prison of Dali Temple, and he can still be so comfortable when he arrives in the prison of Fusi in Beizhen! That is, he suffered a little bit in the Dongchang prison, but he didn't take it seriously at all! Didn't he know that the court was about to turn the sky upside down because of him?
The government and the opposition are indeed about to turn the sky upside down. The officials were very happy, but they found that the protagonist of the incident seemed to have evaporated from the world, and this person was too bearable? Who of the Ming Dynasty is not afraid? Even the emperor didn't dare to do anything to us, and a small thousand households actually ignored us, didn't he take us seriously? However, no one came out to confront the officials, and everyone's dissipation day by day. After a long time, I was like the monkey who was played on the street, and I dared to let people see the excitement?
But the first to express dissatisfaction was Wanli.
The reason is also very simple, he gave an edict to the Wang family at the beginning, not a holy decree issued to the ministers, but this guy made it known to the whole court, making him very faceless. He started this, so wouldn't anyone who is dissatisfied with the oracle in the future be able to announce it to the public? What prestige do you have to speak of? Wanli, who reacted, hurriedly sent a pack of wolves to question Wang Jiaping.
But Wang Jiaping's answer made Wanli want to vomit blood again: "The appointment of the crown prince is a big deal, how can I decide it alone?" Many ministers have been punished for this, and I have been misunderstood by them, so I can only disclose His Majesty's will to everyone to solve your doubts. Wanli knew what he wanted to do, Wang Jiaping knew what he meant, but it was inappropriate, in order to prevent the officials from scolding him, he pulled the emperor out and carried the black pot. What is this thing called? It has always been the courtiers who carry the black pot for the emperor, how can the emperor carry the black pot for the courtiers?
At this time, Wanli unconsciously remembered the black pot professional Hu Zhu Yidao. It's still good for him, he can carry anything for me, where are these old foxes!
But now there is no way, and since everyone knows the will, it can only be wrong. Wanli reluctantly issued a holy decree: "Regarding the matter of making the emperor's eldest son the crown prince, I have already decided." I am a big country, based on integrity, and when the eldest son of the emperor grows up to the age of seventeen, I will make an order. At that time, the matter of the crown prince being ordered out of the cabinet to read will be resolved together, and the officials do not need to say more. ”
The emperor's eldest son is seventeen years old, that is, next year, the emperor's meaning is very clear, at most one year, let everyone be satisfied, now don't make any more trouble, let my ears be clean for a year!
Now everyone is happy, everyone is happy! Several brothers in the cabinet also returned to the court to work and deal with government affairs with a tacit understanding, and all kinds of situations disappeared at once, except for Wang Xijue, his wife's body was really sick, and he had to go back to visit. The quarrel and angry scolding between the government and the opposition also calmed down with the emperor's decree.
But everyone stopped scolding the emperor, and they didn't feel like it was fun for a while, didn't there be a Zhu Yidao, so they scolded him! After the emperor was relaxed, Zhu Yidao was miserable, and the officials gave full play to their professional level and professional ethics, and scolded him in different ways. But Lao Zhu is now in the Fusi Prison in Beizhen, of course he can't hear the angry scolding outside, and his ears are not clean, how should he live his life or how to live. But the officials are very unhappy, because the emperor can't scold, and he can't scold a brocade guard thousands?
But Zhu Yidao's never showing up also made everyone feel that his fist was hitting cotton. If you want to scold the emperor, scold the level, the emperor punishes himself, he can still make a name for himself, and he can boast triumphantly in front of his colleagues: We scolded the emperor, the emperor punished us, we are glorious! can scold this Zhu Yidao, he can't get any benefits from his exhaustion, this is not a thing!
So everyone's performance flew to the cabinet again, and Wanli replied vigorously that I had already put him in the Beizhen Fusi Prison and was waiting for the autumn to be dealt with. But the officials don't do it, you put Jinyiwei Qianhu in Jinyiwei's prison, what's the difference between that and a holiday? No, we must pull him out of the noon gate and kill him in front of hundreds of officials!
Now Wanli's face is really unbearable, I have retreated to this point, do you still want to inch in? !
So another holy decree went down: I have strictly forbidden Zhu Yidao from serving as an official of the court for the rest of his life, and his political future has been cut off, and this matter is over! If anyone talks nonsense again, pull out the noon gate and die!
This is okay, everyone pondered for a long time, and felt that this holy decree was worthy of everyone. If Zhu Yidao can't become an official, he won't be able to get close to the emperor, and he will no longer have any impact on himself and Daming, that's it! This year seems to be a good year, the emperor has been defeated in his own hands one after another, and the status of the officials in the imperial court has suddenly risen! The officials of all parties were afraid that these masters would have nothing to do and scold themselves when they were full, so they all kinds of co-opted them: You have to scold, don't scold me, I'll find someone for you, so that you can scold the Yanguan who should be independent of the court and independent of the officials, and they were artificially divided into factions all of a sudden, which is an extremely huge blow to the unity of the Yanguan, and also lays the groundwork for Wanli to easily control them later.
This turmoil that affected the Ming Dynasty ended with such a dramatic result. Only Shen Shixing sat alone in the cabinet hall, frowning: the emperor only said that Zhu Yidao was strictly forbidden to be an official for life, but did he not say that Zhu Yidao was strictly forbidden to join the army? Isn't he still a thousand households of the Jinyi Guard, or can he lead troops? What's the difference between this and not saying, everyone has been deceived!
But this will he no longer dare to go to Wanli, he knows that the emperor's step-by-step concession is only a superficial phenomenon, maybe it will not be like this next time, and now the emperor will not be able to back down again, if he pushes people too much again, then Zhu Yidao is not dead, but he was pulled out of the noon gate and killed! But it doesn't matter, he stared at Na Zhu Yidao and didn't let him easily influence the emperor anymore, he didn't believe it, he was the first assistant of the Ming Dynasty, would he be as good as a few brocade clothes and a thousand households? Can this little hairy boy fight himself? The mouth didn't even have any hair!
But Shen Shixing made a lot of calculations, but he miscalculated one thing. In fact, this time the emperor did not lose, but only made concessions on the surface. The officials were poisonous enough, but their brains were not stupid, and soon they reacted to one thing: although the emperor issued a holy decree, the holy decree only said that it would be considered next year, but did not say that it would be done next year! In case the emperor regrets it next year, who will he go to? But if the emperor is asked to make a new decree to explain the timetable for the appointment of the crown prince, it is obviously impossible; Besides, then Zhu Yidao can't be an official, but he can always be a eunuch? !
I have to find a way to knock and knock the emperor, and I can't leave a handle, no one has been punished in any way in the previous fights, and this time I have to do the same! After thinking about it, everyone finally found a perfect goal: Shen Shixing.
No way, who made you the first assistant? There are ministers on the emperor's side, how did you get out of the cabinet? After scolding the emperor and detaining Zhu Yidao, it's time for you to take responsibility!
Poor Shen Shixing has been a good old man all his life, he has been sleek all his life, he has been digging the east wall and mending the west wall for a lifetime, he is tired and tired, but when he retires, he is played with fiercely.
A letter entitled "On the Auxiliary Ministers and Kechen Shu" was sent to the cabinet, with only one central idea, that is, Shen Shixing did not fulfill the duties of the first assistant, which not only caused extremely dangerous ministers to appear around the emperor, but also suppressed the speech officials, so that the correct opinions could not be heard and could not be correctly implemented. Shen Shixing must review his mistakes and pay the price.
The author of this letter is Tang Xianzu, the director of the Nanjing Ministry of Rites.
Wanli sent someone to send Zhu Yidao good gold sore medicine and delicious meals to comfort him for the black pot he carried for himself during this period of time and was beaten. Zhu Yidao was very pleased, it turned out that the emperor really hadn't forgotten himself; Li Jinzhong was even more happy, he really climbed a big tree this time! During this period, he had already learned that Li Lianxiong had been assigned to the Imperial Horse Supervisor to feed the horses, and that the new eunuch of the Celebrant Seal was the Wei Dynasty with good prestige and connections. Doesn't this mean that your spring has arrived? He still has a certain friendship with the Wei Dynasty, and when he was doing things for Li Jie, Li Jie had a very personal relationship with the Wei Dynasty, so he asked Li Jinzhong to help with things.
Wei Chao was also very satisfied with Li Jinzhong, who was very smart-minded, and said in front of Li Jie from time to time, You have accepted a good son, why haven't I met him?
It's a pity that when Li Jie lost power, Wei Chao didn't say a word for him in order to protect himself. But this doesn't prevent me from looking for him, and when I release it later, I must go to worship Wei Chao as my godfather! Only in this way, there is the Wei Dynasty in Dongchang, and Zhu Yidao who has the holy family Zhenglong in Jinyiwei, although he is still a little eunuch, who else can compare with him? This is really what civil officials often say, if you lose the east, you will reap the mulberry! The more Li Jinzhong thought about it, the more excited he became, and the eyes in his eyes were different: If you want to say that it is developed, it is still this Zhu Qianhu who is developed, with his back against the big tree of the emperor, no one can bring him down, and Lian Jin also brought him so many meals! Pity the current Ming Dynasty, who can have such treatment?
Shen Yun, who was far away in Ningxia City, put his arm around his daughter's shoulders and muttered, Xiao Nan, this husband of yours is terrible, it's terrible...... can be a mere Jinyi Wei Qianhu, in the face of such torture in the East Factory unwavering, and once again confronted the Manchu Dynasty civil and military, if he has a comeback, no one will be able to shake him! He didn't know that what Lao Zhu was thinking about now was getting out of this boundless sea of suffering!
