"Official." Wang Xi held a copy of the fold in his hand and stood beside Yun Xi with his hands down.

"What?" Yun Xi, who was commenting on the answer, didn't raise his head and asked softly.

Wang Xi glanced sideways at the four auxiliary officers who were on the table a few feet away, and whispered something in Yun Xi's ear.

Yun Xi's hand holding the pen suddenly stopped in mid-air, and after a while, he put the pen down, stood up and pulled Wang Xi to a small pavilion, and asked the little eunuch to close the door, and then asked in a deep voice: "You say what you just said to me, say it again." ”

"The official family," Wang Xi was not afraid, and his voice was very steady: "The official family asked the servants to divide the impeachment of the children of the powerful among the ministers these days into several categories according to the origin of the people who went to the fold, the yamen in the same year, and the people who were good friends, and the servants were also sorted out according to the instructions of the officials in the room where the officials' files were placed. ”

"But when I saw this excerpt, the slave realized that something was wrong." While speaking, Wang Xi picked up the fold in his hand: "This fold is entered by Hu Ying, the imperial historian of Huguang Road of the Metropolitan Inspectorate. Hu Yingnai is a native of Taihu County, and Xuanning Hou Cao Tai is a native of Shouzhou, but his grandfather's generation moved from Taihu County to Shouzhou, Taihu Lake is where his ancestral tomb is, after the first emperor of Hongwu added Cao Liangchen as the Marquis of Xuanning, Cao Liangchen Cao Tai and his son also deliberately returned to Taihu County to worship their ancestors, renovate the ancestral tomb for their ancestors, and join the clan who stayed in the local area and did not move north. This Hu Ying is related to the local Cao family, although he is not very sure, but this person should be the mouthpiece of the Marquis of Xuanning. ”

"And this time, Hu Ying has been on the fold for two consecutive days, asking His Majesty to punish Xu Jingchang again."

"If there is only one person like this, it is nothing, maybe this person is jealous and hateful, so I ask Xu Jingchang to be punished again." Yun Xi retorted as if he was hoping that what he was vaguely thinking of was just a conjecture.

"The official family, if it is only like this, the slave will never dare to talk to the official family." Wang Xi said: "With this in mind, the minions were more careful when they looked through the files of the ministers who had been folded, and after careful screening by the minions, they found that several people were mostly related to the nobles' families. ”

Wang Xi took out seven or eight folds from his waist, and said to Yun Xi one by one: "This person Tang Xuanfa, the head of the Fine Diet and Qing Officials Department of the Ministry of Rites, has a relationship with Cao Zhen, Marquis of Jingchuan, and asks His Majesty to deal with Xu Jingchang again; This person Ye Qiu, the left Sicheng of Honglu Temple, has a relationship with Huixian Bosang Jing, and is also the impeachment of Xu Jingchang; This person ......"

"The minions found out that a total of nine ministers who had played the impeachment of other generals or the sons of nobles were involved with the nobles, and,"

"And most of the other civil officials who were impeached are also involved in Xungui, but they are very hidden and have not been discovered." Wang Xi hesitated, and Yun Xi had already finished adding his words with a sneer.

"It's all capable, and I even took advantage of this incident to fight." Yun Xi sat down and said this with a sneer.

Wang Xi hurriedly walked to the door and instructed the little eunuch to bring a pot of tea, and told them not to come in without permission, and then poured a cup of tea for Yun Xi with a teapot, and persuaded him: "The official family is angry." ”

"How can I get angry!" Yun Xi took the teacup and took a sip, and said angrily: "This time, it is the civil officials who impeached Xun Gui, these people actually took this opportunity to rectify the generals of different factions, and they are not afraid that I will punish all the impeached people in a fit of anger!" ”

The matter is already very clear, some of the military generals with the highest status in the Ming Dynasty actually took the opportunity of the civil impeachment of Xu Jingchang to rise up, wanting to completely depose Xu Jingchang by Yunxi, or at least let him be dismissed.

A very natural thing, the generals of the Ming Dynasty also have factions, and because there are many founding heroes and their descendants who are still alive, there are also many factions, although the Xu family, the Chang family and the Li family are the three most powerful factions, but there are still quite a lot of generals who are not from their three factions.

And now among the many factions, the Xu family is too dazzling. Xu Da was originally the second hero of the founding of the country, Li Shanchang became the first hero after his death, and his influence was very great, now Xu Huizu promoted military affairs in the northwest, Xu Zengshou served as the prime minister of the Yongfan in the northeast, Xu Jingchang went to Annan this time to earn a count for his father, and even Xu Yingxu, who everyone thought had no ability, also became the governor of the Five Armies Governor's Mansion to handle daily affairs, and even Xu Qin was trained in the guard.

At the same time, the four girls of the Xu family, three of whom were married to the prince as concubines, and the other married to the emperor as one of the four concubines, all of which made the Xu family too powerful now, and in terms of the power in their hands, even the Chang family and the Li family could not be compared. This aroused the jealousy of the generals of the other factions.

If it's just jealousy, more importantly, this matter is related to the promotion of his own faction's generals, which is very fatal. Even if the people of the Xu family can handle it impartially when promoting officials, many times many generals are qualified, will the Xu family give priority to appointing generals from their own faction? It's impossible to think about.

Therefore, for the sake of the future of their faction's generals, they must also deal with the Xu family. It just so happened that Xu Jingchang did something wrong this time to provide them with an opportunity, and they also took action.

In fact, Yun Xi is not unaware that the Xu family's current power is already very great, but now is the time to employ people, and the Xu family has the ability, so he can only use it temporarily, and then rise and fall after the matter passes, cutting some of the power of the Xu family.

More importantly, this is another political struggle between the civilian and official collectives against the nobles, even if the scale is not as good as the last time, but many military generals can't even care about it.

"Official, don't be annoyed if the slave says a word, now the court knows that there will be a war with Samarkand in the next two years, and Your Majesty will never do anything to the generals at this time. In particular, when the news of Timur's expedition to the White Horde came from the northwest three days ago, the ministers should have estimated the same as His Majesty, that Timur wanted to clear his worries. Most of the next year he will send troops to the Ming Dynasty, and His Majesty will not treat the generals at this time. ”

"Besides, the civil officials they instructed this time are very secretive in their own connections, if it weren't for the 'big data analysis method' used by the officials to find clues and let Jinyiwei investigate, they would never have been able to find out. Many people were already officials during the reign of the first emperor, but the first emperor did not realize it. Wang Xi persuaded him.

"Hey, because there is going to be a war, so I can impeach the Xu family with confidence, right?" Yun Hee sneered.

At this moment, he really wanted to dispose of all the generals who were discovered; But his left hand clenched and loosened repeatedly, and finally he could only let go of this thought for the time being.

"But even if I can't deal with it all, it won't make them happy." Yun Xi said.
