Chapter 268: Talent
Cabinet.
The impeachment note was sent to Li Dongyang's desk.
Li Dongyang, as usual, took the song lightly, and then, his brows furrowed deeply.
He hurriedly took the music and hurried to Liu Jian's public room: "Liu Gong ......"
Liu Jian was lying on the desk, only raised his eyes slightly, put down his pen and said, "What's the matter?" ”
"Gong Liu, please take a look." Li Dongyang sent the impeachment note to the court.
Liu Jian looked at it and said with a surprised face: "Isn't Liu Jin the eunuch of the East Palace?" Why, when did he go to Liaodong? Solid wall clearing? Why hasn't the old man heard of it? ”
As he was talking, Ma Wensheng, the secretary of the Ministry of War, had already rushed over in a hurry: "Gong Liu, what's wrong?" When did the imperial court make the will of the fortified wall? ”
The military department also received a secret report from He Yan.
Ma Wensheng looked at it and was in a hurry, where is it so simple to disturb the people, this has reached the point of harming the people.
He Yan is such a delicate person, he did not dare to disobey the orders of the envoy and His Royal Highness the Prince, but he did not dare to bear this great involvement, so he turned his head and secretly played to the military department.
is nothing more than the fear that the court will investigate and become a scapegoat.
Liu Jian looked at Ma Wensheng who came in in a hurry in surprise, and then looked at Li Dongyang, and then said: "Your Majesty's will is to strengthen defense, this strong wall is unheard of, how did the prince get involved in this matter?" Why is Liu Jin so bold? ”
This series of cross-examinations, in fact, everyone already has the answer in their hearts.
"Negative picture ......" Liu Jian glanced at Ma Wensheng deeply, and called out to his name: "Where is the military department, have you received the news of the Tatar attack on Jinzhou?" ”
Ma Wensheng shook his head and said: "There is no news, but Datong is there, and yesterday I got another report that the Tatars have increased their troops to Datong, and there are suspected signs of a large-scale attack." ”
Liu Jian listened, and became even more worried, although Datong is strong, it is terrible to be afraid of a just in case, if the Tartars are determined to take Datong, who knows if there will be a good one.
But on the other hand, Jinzhou made such a fuss.
After a moment of silence, Liu Jian stared straight at Ma Wensheng and said, "Negative map, you tell the truth, is it possible for Jinzhou to be attacked?" ”
Ma Wensheng was silent, as the secretary of the military department, he should indeed provide appropriate advice.
After a short silence, Ma Wensheng stared and glanced at Liu Jian: "The possibility is not impossible, the Tatars are as cunning as foxes, no matter where they attack, they are not surprised." However, the officers of the Ministry of War have already discussed that such a possibility is very small, and the risk of attacking Datong is the lowest, but once it is captured, the benefit is the greatest. ”
This is the truth, there is no Duoyanwei of Daning outside Datong, the Tatars are facing just a Xiongguan, it is best to break the city, but it is not possible to break the city, it is a big deal, Pegasus escaped into the desert, and the Ming army can't catch up even if they want to.
After a pause, Ma Wensheng continued: "And Liaodong, especially Jinzhou, has to cross Daning, not to mention, even if Jinzhou is captured, the price paid by the Tatars is extremely heavy, and once Jinzhou cannot be taken, the Ming army in Jinzhou is waiting for them, and their back road is threatened by Duoyanwei, which is really unwise." ”
Liu Jian sighed, and his eyes flashed a little angry: "This Liu Jin is really a crime that deserves death!" ”
His sigh was more like an accusation.
But as the first assistant scholar of the cabinet, what else can he say, can he scold the prince? No!
Since this is the case, then this Liu Jin has to die.
Although Liu Jin was instructed by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, otherwise how could he go to Jinzhou, but he was so cruel that he was even more ferocious than the Tatars.
In that Jinzhou, countless soldiers and civilians were driven to Jinzhou in this cold and snowy day to connived at the destruction of the fields of the Jinzhou military and civilians and the millet that hurt the people.
Jinzhou simply did not have the capacity to accommodate 100,000 soldiers and civilians, and in such a hurry, according to the report of Li Shan, the inspector of the imperial history, the grain was ...... Although it was sufficient, on the first night, two people had already frozen to death.
If this continues, I don't know how many people will suffer.
"The worst is not Liu Jin, Liu Jin is a eunuch, it is like this, the most shocking thing is that Hanlin Xiu Ouyang Zhi, he is Hanlin, he is a reader who has read the books of sages, he is bold, and he is acting arbitrarily in Jinzhou with Liu Jin, what is this called, this is called knowing the law and breaking the law." Ma Wensheng looked very displeased.
Liu Jin just does bad things, Ma Wensheng does have prejudices against eunuchs, and he discriminates against them, it seems that this is outside, eunuchs don't do a little bad thing, and they don't deserve to be called eunuchs.
But Ouyang Zhi really made him feel heartbroken, this is the champion of the Ming Dynasty, the clear stream in the clear stream, he actually did such a thing that lost his conscience.
Liu Jian nodded and said: "Ouyang Zhi is a loyal, this, the old man knows very well, this must be instructed by someone!" Speaking of this, Liu Jian's eyes sank, and he said, "Go and ask Xinjian Bolai." ”
Liu Jian was reluctant to criticize Ouyang Zhi, Ouyang Zhi gave him a good impression, but he could make such a big deal with eunuchs, which was not tolerated by the Qing Dynasty, Liu Jian could almost imagine that once the news of Jinzhou spread, what would the Qing Assembly boil into, and the Metropolitan Procuratorate would be in chaos.
And in the final analysis, everyone knows who Ouyang Zhi is.
This injustice has a head, a debtor, and this account has to be settled by Fang Jifan.
There was already a scribe waiting outside, and when he heard Liu Gong's orders, he hurriedly went to Fang Jifan.
Ma Wensheng sat in the duty room, sighed for a long time, nine sides, it is the responsibility of the military department, Datong is already in a hurry, and now there is such a thing in Jinzhou, he wants to wait for Fang Jifan to come, so he scolded him fiercely, this guy is shameless, you are good in Beijing, what are you doing in Jinzhou?
But Liu Jian sat down like an old monk, he felt that Fang Jifan might give him a reasonable explanation, he was too surprised by this Fang Jifan, and even, Liu Jian faintly felt that maybe it was Jinzhou that the Tatars attacked Jinzhou.
But even if the Tatars attack Jinzhou, this is also a small probability, if because of this, the military and civilians in Jinzhou are full of complaints, this is worth it, you Fang Jifan dare to meddle in military affairs, and you are tired of it?
In terms of probability, the nine sides of the Ming Dynasty, no matter which border pass, there is a possibility of being attacked by the Tatars. Then you can't let people live?
Soon, the scribe hurried back and said, "Duke Liu, Fang Jifan...... Sick ......"
"What?" Liu Jian's face suddenly fell: "When will you not be sick, but you will be sick at this time?" He is a young man, and his body is strong, where did he get so much sickness? ”
"Yes...... There seem to be signs of recurrence of the brain disease......"
"......" Liu Jian remembered this stubble at this time, his face stiffened, and he was speechless for a while.
…………
In the warm pavilion, Xiao Jing and Mu Bin, the commander of Jinyiwei, had already sent a courier.
That Zhongguan Wang Bao, although he had to cooperate with Liu Jin, he also knew that it was Gonggong Xiao who was in charge today, how could he dare to hide this matter!
When Xiao Jing sent this recital to Emperor Hongzhi, Emperor Hongzhi's face sank: "Xuanfang succeeds the domain." ”
Similarly, Fang Jifan's brain disease relapsed.
Emperor Hongzhi raised his head, a little depressed: "Send an imperial doctor to see you, give some medicine, and let him take care of his body first." ”
Fang Jifan is still an honest person, this is Emperor Hongzhi's impression of Fang Jifan, usually, Fang Jifan does not seem to fool his bad deeds.
So first I was angry, and then I was a little worried.
The health of the ancients was not very good, even the nobles in the palace, or the children of the nobles, if there was a serious illness, they might encounter many accidents and die early, to some extent, it was the norm.
But there is nowhere to vent the anger in this stomach.
You said that Jinzhou might be attacked, and I also sent someone to send a decree to sternly warn Jinzhou to strengthen the garrison, okay, you Zhu Houzhao and Fang Jifan, you are bold, and you actually began to meddle in military affairs, can you interfere in the military affairs of border towns? It's not going to be a few days.
Emperor Hongzhi suppressed his anger and did not kill chickens and monkeys, tomorrow, do you still have to go to the warm pavilion to uncover the tiles?
"Prince!"
Three words, murderous.
Zhu Houzhao never imagined that Fang Jifan's brain disease would recur, no, it seems to be a sign of a recurrence of brain disease, the words of the ancestors are broad and profound, and everyone contains thousands of changes...... It's going to be fine.
He even decided to let his father see his familiarity with Ma Zheng, so although he was a little panicked, he still arrived at the noon gate beautifully, but refused to enter the palace.
The eunuch cautiously urged, and Zhu Houzhao said: "This palace waits for a new uncle." ”
The eunuch looked at Zhu Houzhao in surprise: "Your Highness, the new uncle is sick, and Your Majesty has not announced the new uncle, you ...... I don't know ......."
"What......" Zhu Houzhao suddenly felt as if he had been pushed into the ice cellar, shivered all over, and his heart was very cold: "What...... What's ...... sick?"
The little eunuch said truthfully: "Xinjian Bo has a brain disease, Your Highness...... Don't you know? Your Majesty has sent someone to deliver medicine. ”
"......" Zhu Houzhao's mood suddenly became very bad, and his heart was probably 10,000 grass and mud horses running by, you Fang Jifan is really a scumbag, this kind of golden cicada shelling makes you think of it, why didn't you think of it, you did it on purpose.
A thought flashed through his mind, so he touched his forehead and said, "Oh, this palace is also a little dizzy." ”
The eunuch looked at Zhu Houzhao deeply and didn't say a word, obviously looking disbelieving.
Zhu Houzhao was uncomfortable, he seemed to be a little late! Others don't believe it at all.
He had no choice but to put down the hand that caressed his forehead and put it behind his back: "Let's go, enter the palace, my father is afraid that he will be in a hurry." ”
