Chapter 197: Noble and Martial

The emperor opened his mouth and asked, "What does Lord Wang have to do?" ”

"Minister, I want to impeach Lan Yunjie, the servant who trusts the household."

"What are you impeaching Lan Yunjie about, play it."

"The minister impeached Nalan Yunjie, trespassed on our country's eunuch, insulted the ministers, insulted the saints, even insulted the scholars all over the world, and insulted the old ministers of the former dynasty, and the minister implored the emperor to punish this person."

Before I could go out to refute, another Sanpin official in his sixties with white hair came out and said: "Long live Qiyu, that Lan Yunjie insulted the minister, it is not decent for my court, how can a court member do it, this person does not learn and has no skills, climbs too fast, is really not a person who can take on great responsibilities, and the minister also asks Long Live Lord to remove this person from his official position and drive him out of the capital to serve at the border pass." ”

Two officials came out one after another, and finally a six-grade official came out and played: "Long live Qiyu, the minister is the imperial history has the right to impeach, and today Weichen also wants to impeach Nalan Yunjie, this is the minister's excerpt, please long live the royal review." ”

The emperor did not ask Chen Jiu to go down to get the fold, but said: "You don't need me to read it, in front of all Aiqing, you can read it to everyone." ”

Seeing what the emperor said, the imperial historian had no choice but to open the excerpt and read: "The minister heard that Lan Yunjie is usually extremely arrogant, has no ministers, and has a close relationship with the cabinet ministers, and is suspected of forming a party for personal gain, and Lan Yunjie usually lives a luxurious life, spends every day drinking, and keeps concubines privately, his salary can pay him such a big squander, the minister thinks that this person must have a problem with corruption, please send someone to strictly investigate this person." ”

I'm so angry, how can this person have nothing, seeing that I'm angry, Xia Deren pulled my sleeve and whispered: "Don't be angry, the imperial history is all hearsay, no one will take it seriously." ”

I nodded and didn't speak, thinking in my heart how to deal with this sudden appearance of the imperial history, this is a new situation, I didn't expect this person to impeach me for something else, I was also thinking about how to deal with it, and I also watched what the emperor should do.

After the man finished speaking, the emperor was silent for a while and saw that no one stood up again, and then said: "Is there anyone who has impeached Lan Yunjie, and if there is anything to say, we will finish it together." ”

There was silence below, none of the ministers spoke, they all watched how the emperor dealt with it, this is a big deal, the emperor's newly promoted household servant was impeached by so many people, this is also a slap in the face of the emperor, a bad handling will cause the disgust of most officials, so the emperor is also very cautious.

After a while, the emperor spoke: "Since you impeached Lan Yunjie, then let Lan Yunjie come, Lan Yunjie, you tell me what happened yesterday, and whether what Wang Yushi said is true." ”

This is the emperor asked me to defend myself, then I got out of the queue, saluted first and then stood up and said: "Long live Qiyu, what the Lord of the Wine Sacrifice said is nothing, the minister is invincible and trespasses on the Guozi Prison, the minister is the Guozi Jian who went by order, and when he arrives at the Guozi Prison, he will say hello to the Lord of the Wine Sacrifice first, who knows that when the Lord of the Wine Sacrifice hears that my name is Lan Yunjie, he will say that the minister is a martial artist, without any ink on his chest, and he is not worthy of entering their country, defiling the land of the saints, and also said that the minister is a military general, the minister of the fortunate entry, the minister may ask the Lord of the Sacrificial Wine, Do you look down on us so much if we are military attachΓ©s, Weichen refuted Lord Sacrificial Wine and asked him, there is no martial artist to guard the frontier for them and resist foreign races, where he can sit here and be a stable official, he and his children have long been slaves of foreign races, this is what the minister said, as for why Lord Saijiu impeached Weichen for this matter, I really don't know, he insulted Weichen first, could it be that Wechen will be impeached if he refutes it. Is that Weichen also going to impeach him for insulting the court officials? ”

"Lord Wang, is that what Lord Lan said?"

Wang Yan said hesitantly: "Long live, the minister is also angry, so he said so, he also said that Taizu also relied on martial arts to fight the country, and we scholars have no credit." The minister was also angry and came to impeach him, thinking that he was a member of the third rank at a young age, not a minister who was fortunate to enter. ”

"Lord Wang, do you see that Lan Yunjie can't be an official at a young age, do you have to stay up until you are seventy or eighty years old to become a big official, when I think of my Emperor Taizu, the officials under him are all young, and they are not also official positions obtained by merit, Chen Jiu, you read to him why I gave birth to Lan Yunjie's official position."

After the emperor finished speaking, he handed Chen Jiu an excerpt, it seems that the emperor also prepared it for me, I saw Chen Jiu take the excerpt and open it and read it: "Lan Yunjie, guard the royal library, capture the assassin meritorious, and be promoted to a five-grade guard." In the future, I will be rewarded for my meritorious service twice in the palace, and I will be punished for my meritorious service, you say that Lan Yunjie is a minister of luck, I don't agree, do you say that saving the driver is not a great achievement, then I ask the ministers, what is a great merit, if Lan Yunjie saves the driver twice and does not reward it, it will chill the heart of the hero, and who else will serve me wholeheartedly in the Ming Dynasty, as for you say that Lan Yunjie is a reckless man, then I ask you, the southeast resists the Japanese, the west gate resists the enemy, and the border passes drive out the Huns, they climb the ice and snow, shed blood and sweat, is it for themselves, without the sacrifice of our border soldiers, We can sit here and talk about the world, the Great Song Dynasty was destroyed by the Huns, what is the result, it is not the destruction of the country by foreign races, our Ming Dynasty is not allowed to engage in any noble and lowly people, no matter how talented you are, how outstanding your poetry, you can go to subdue the Japanese Kou, you can beat the aliens away, I have a ruler in my heart, which is more important, I know in my heart, martial arts to govern the world, this is common sense, but without a strong army guarantee, there is no soldier's abandonment of family and business, everything is empty words, There is no peaceful environment, what kind of governance is talked about there, you don't even have the country anymore, and you still talk about governing the country, today I am not speaking for Lan Yunjie, but for those of us who are for the sake of the Ming Dynasty, prosperity and stability, and the soldiers who give up their small families to take care of everyone, Lan Yunjie's talent I know, although it is not as good as you Jinshi who were born in Hanlin, but his statecraft is all said to me in private, how can you know, I declare here first, and there will be no more noble and cheap words in the future, let me know, then send the border to serve, Let him see how our border soldiers defend themselves against foreign invaders and patrol and garrison. ”

After Chen Jiu finished reading, the emperor spoke: "Did everyone hear Chen Jiunian just now, and I will do it according to this in the future, I don't want to hear the words of Guiwu in the future, and I don't want to listen to any fortunate ministers, don't I know who is good and who is bad." I am not a faint king, I have a ruler in my heart, and I measure you for everyone. ”

As soon as the emperor's words were finished, Cheng Anhou Feng Mingyi, who was ranked first in the military attachΓ©, walked out of the queue, knelt down and said: "The emperor is wise, it is the blessing of my Ming Dynasty, Weichen has been in the army for many years, and knows the suffering of the soldiers. ”

The military attache all followed Cheng Anhou and knelt on the ground, shouting: "Long live the emperor, long live, long live." ”

Yang Bo, the secretary of the military department in fourth place, stood up, and Yang Bo waited for everyone to shout and then played: "Your Majesty, Weichen is also from Jinshi, although he does not have the identity of Hanlin, but he has been in the Northwest Army from the beginning, and he also knows the hardships of the soldiers, how many soldiers sacrificed their lives in the frontier, and they did not even come back, they also have wives and children, and they also have emotions, how many people can't go home at the border for decades, some ministers just look down on them, they are all flesh and blood, who has no emotion, we sit in our own yamen, drinking tea, Go to say that the border soldiers are reckless, can not be elegant, today Weichen is here for the soldiers to seek justice, Weichen asked the emperor to severely punish Wang Yan Wang, let Wang go to the border to feel, or he will never know what noble and cheap truth, Confucius also said: Read ten thousand books, it is better to travel ten thousand miles, does Wang not know this truth, since Wang is a disciple of Confucius Sage. Weichen suggested that the emperor should let Lord Wang also walk to the border to experience the feeling of traveling thousands of miles. ”

All the generals in the back agreed, and after everyone calmed down, the emperor said: "Everyone Aiqing is flat, since everyone wants Lord Wang to go to the border, then it is decided, the sacrificial wine Wang Yan will go to Gansu Governor Yamen tomorrow to serve, as for what position Governor Liu arranges for you, it depends on your own performance, go and take a good look at our soldiers, if there are any foreign races to attack, you can also use the way of the saint to educate them, if the education is good, I will let you come back, and you will be promoted to an official." ”

Wang Yan heard the emperor say this, his legs that had been standing for a long time could no longer hold on, and he knelt on the ground all of a sudden, and the first assistant bowed out of the column and knelt down and played: "Your Majesty, Lord Wang is old and frail, please ask the emperor to be sympathetic to the old minister, so as to avoid his border pain." ”

"Lord Gao, Teacher Gao, how can the border pass be bitter, Lord Wang is an official at the border in the autumn rain, not an easy war, you can rest assured, it's okay, the guard, send Lord Wang home to prepare the luggage, leave the capital tomorrow morning, don't stop me for a moment."

Gao Gong saw that the emperor's attitude was very resolute and he didn't dare to say anything, but he looked at me unwillingly and said: "Your Majesty, Wang Yushi impeached Lan Yunjie for corruption and extravagance, befriended ministers, and asked Long Live Lord to strictly investigate the matter of privately accepting concubines." ”

As soon as I heard it, this had just gotten rid of Wang Yan, and this high arch immediately shifted the target, and pointed the finger at me, and I was not afraid, these things were not in the first place, and there was nothing to be afraid of.

I only heard the emperor ask above: "Lan Yunjie, what Wang Yushi said is true, have you been corrupt, lived a luxurious life, befriended ministers to take concubines, and recruited me to work." ”

I knelt down again and defended: "The emperor and the minister are wronged, Weichen has been working in the palace on an errand, initially as a guard, and then as the princess's teacher, the minister just wants to be corrupt and where to be corrupt, I understand that the royal history of the emperor is rumored to hurt the minister, but the minister has always been loyal to the emperor, how dare he be corrupt, the minister is just a teacher, and he is corrupt or something." ”
