Chapter 45: Impeachment
The next day, Li Zhi was still asleep, and was suddenly awakened in a dream, he glanced out the window, and it was still dark.
The winter nights pass more slowly.
But he didn't know that at this moment, thousands of miles away, Yunlai City, that is, where the Jingshi of the Great Xia Dynasty was located, was undergoing an impeachment against him.
A short time later, a large number of officials were already waiting outside the noon gate, chattering in groups of three or five.
Estimating the time, the ministers lined up in turn, waiting for the palace door to open.
Ancient rites, the beginning of the color discrimination, the sun rises and looks at it.
With the sound of drums, hundreds of officials entered in turn, only to see some of the imperial history in charge of picketing around, if there were officials coughing, spitting or unsteady walking will be recorded, waiting to be dealt with. Then the officials above the fourth rank entered the main hall and began to go to court.
The whip sounded, the emperor arrived, and the ministers cautiously walked into the royal road to pay homage, and waited respectfully.
The eunuch pulled his throat and said: "If there is something to start, there is nothing to retreat!" ”
As soon as the words fell, someone jumped out.
Yu Zhengzhi, the secretary of the Criminal Department, said in a loud voice: "Your Majesty, the minister has something to do." ”
Li Yuantian frowned slightly, this Yu Zhengzhi is the secretary of the Criminal Department, in charge of the national criminal punishment decree and the review of criminal names, and his specific duties: reviewing various laws, reviewing criminal cases sent to the ministry in various places, and working with Jiuqing to try the death penalty and cases of "imprisonment" and directly try the cases above the convictions in the Gyeonggi area, the power is not small, but there are no big cases in Gyeonggi these days, what is the matter with him? Li Yuantian was a little puzzled.
"Your Majesty, His Royal Highness King Xinwang of Suxi Province has set up a casting bureau, specializing in some strange tricks and tricks and the like, this is not counting, there are even business moves in recent days, openly mixed with those cheap businessmen, I heard that there was also a Shilaozi Chamber of Commerce established yesterday, and a nest of untouchables will be gathered together, Your Majesty, you said that this is really an insult to the royal face, the minister is bold, I implore Your Majesty to order His Royal Highness King Xin to return to Beijing as soon as possible, and explain this matter clearly."
Immediately, someone chimed in: "Commerce is a cheap business, and the ancestral royal family is not allowed to do business, and King Xin's move is undoubtedly against the ancestral system." ”
"Yes, Your Majesty! King Xin's move violates the ancestral system! ”
"The minister thinks that it is not in line with the ancestral system"
"The minister seconded the proposal!"
The royal family's business is recorded in the laws of Daxia, but the ancestral system does not allow it, but it is generally done in a corner, because the hierarchy of agriculture and commerce in Daxia is very strict, and business is the most lowly profession.
However, there are policies and countermeasures, and they generally use their brains to do it in the name of others, tacitly, for example, the two princes Li Jie's fiefdom is so rich that it is not developed by commerce, and the foundation of Nuoda is accumulated by dealing with businessmen.
But it's not the same, no one dares to impeach his second prince, why? Because persimmons still have to pick up soft pinching, everyone understands this truth, above the court, the power of the two princes is monstrous, even if people are not in the court, but there are still countless dogs and horses to work for them, let them bite whoever they want.
Li Zhi's preparation for the establishment of the Foundry Bureau, Li Yuantian was aware, and he was a little unhappy at first, but when Li Zhi came up with the results, he still agreed, as for the Chamber of Commerce behind, Li Yuantian even agreed, if it weren't for the fact that there were many party members in the DPRK and China, and the government decree was inconvenient to implement, he would have wanted to carry out a series of reforms for business, but this court didn't seem to be his word.
Therefore, with Li Zhi's various deeds in Suxi Province, he was not only not angry, but pleased, in his view that what ancestral system is nonsense, and no self-protection ability is all fake, but also from the letter from the eyeliner, the effect of the new army ordered to train is not bad, and his new method of training the army is really surprising to him.
But unexpectedly, these things were poked out by the second prince's henchmen in the court.
"Heh, Lord Yu is really a good means, the small things in Suxi Province can be known so quickly, it seems that Lord Yu cares more about my four princes than me!" Li Yuantian snorted coldly.
Yu Zhengzhi's heart tightened, wiped a handful of sweat and hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, Weichen has only heard about it, I just heard about it." ”
The rest of the officials above the court didn't dare to speak, and secretly scolded this Yu Zhengzhi, what happened yesterday, you can take it out today, it's too urgent....
Li Yuantian snorted coldly and waved his hand angrily: "At present, the Northern Shan Kingdom and the Dajin Kingdom are eyeing each other in the north of the Imperial Dynasty, and the fiefdom of King Xin borders on its two countries, and it is constantly harassed by the two countries, and some places among the people suffer from drought. I've made up my mind! So be it, no more discussion! ”
Although there are many factions in this Great Xia Dynasty and there are constant party disputes, when such things do not hurt their own interests, they still have a cold attitude of watching from the sidelines, and only the second prince's henchmen worry about it.
Because the people who made trouble in the Chamber of Commerce yesterday were solved by Zhu Kai after being expelled from the Chamber of Commerce, and the place where they died was disguised as a scene of robbers killing people, and then let the Anxi City Government conclude the case with a headless robbery case, and of course, with Zhu Kai's skills, no one knew that he did it.
But when the second prince Li Jie learned about it, he was so angry that he vomited blood, although the government ended the case with a robbery, but he knew that Li Zhi must have done it, so he asked his henchmen to impeach Li Zhi in the court.
But with the words of the two princes and one party, and Li Yuantian as the son of heaven to find an excuse to cover for him, Yu Zhengzhi and the others had no choice but to give up, thinking in their hearts that they would definitely find another opportunity to vent their anger for His Royal Highness King Qi.
After a while, there were no officials in the court, and Li Yuantian snorted coldly, then got up and walked towards the apse.
Seeing this, the eunuch said in a loud voice: "Retreat!" ”
A group of civil and military officials in the court slowly began to leave the main hall, and many officials muttered something along the way.
Yu Zhengzhi looked depressed, as if he was still immersed in the failure just now.
Just when Yu Zhengzhi was depressed, a person suddenly walked behind him and patted him on the back shoulder. Seeing that he was startled, this person laughed and said, "Lord Yu! ”
"Hmph, Lord Zhou, what are you doing?" Yu Zhengzhi glanced at his head and snorted coldly.
"Haha, Lord Yu failed to impeach His Royal Highness King Xin just now, and he is unhappy at this time?" Zhou Congmin teased.
"Hmph, what does it have to do with you?" casually responded Yu Zhengzhi turned his head and left, but he was thinking in his heart, what did Congmin want to come to me this week.
