Xue Guoguan, the first assistant of the cabinet, was dismissed, and without warning, the commander of Jinyiwei made Luo Yangxing suddenly surround Xue Guoguan's mansion with thousands of subordinates!

At this time, the whole capital was fried, and countless ordinary people rushed to hear the news, and surrounded a large circle around Jinyiwei, of course, they did not come to make trouble, but to see the excitement.

It is not the first time that many people outside Xue Guoguan's mansion have come, and when it was rumored that Xue Guoguan wanted to do Qin Hui's move, many ordinary people came to throw rotten eggs and rotten vegetable leaves, as for splashing dung, it was Zhang Bin who instructed people to do it, and it had nothing to do with them.

This time, they just came to see the excitement, of course, they didn't bring any rotten eggs and rotten vegetable leaves, and as for the dung, no one brought them.

Anyway, they can't enter the Xue Mansion again, standing outside, separated by a wall, what are they looking at?

Naturally, there is a lot of excitement to see them running over, because there are rumors that Xue Guoguan embezzled millions of taels of silver by selling officials!

Millions of taels of silver, many people can't see hundreds of taels of silver in their lives, millions of taels, naturally they want to come to see and understand.

Sure enough, not long after the Xue Guoguan Mansion was besieged, hundreds of brocade guards escorted hundreds of carriages in.

What is this carriage for?

Needless to ask, it must be here to pull silver, raiding the house is not moving, those worthless things will not be pulled away, only gold, silver and jewelry and other valuable things will be pulled to the inner treasury.

Then it was wonderful, the hundreds of carriages went in less than half an hour, and thousands of brocade guards hurried over, sealing the streets leading to the Donghua Gate of the imperial city in Xuefu, and everyone was driven aside, and then the carriages full of silver drove out of the Xue Mansion one after another, ten taels of silver ingots, each carriage was full, shining in the sun with a tempting white light, if it weren't for the tens of thousands of brocade guards in the town here, it is estimated that there would really be the outlaw who would go up to snatch it.

These hundreds of carriages went back and forth between Xue Mansion and the Imperial City, and I don't know how many times they were transported, each time they were full of gold and silver, which proves that the rumors are true, Xue Guoguan's embezzlement of silver is indeed scary, millions of taels must be there, tens of millions of taels are possible, the people along the way to see it is called a pleasure, and it is not in vain to see so much silver in this life.

Anyway, this Luo Yangxing was kicked in the head by a donkey, you said that you will transport dirty silver, so you can pack it in a box, it's really not good to cover it with a black cloth, just let the silver be exposed, doesn't this lead people to sin!

Of course, Luo Yangxing's head was never kicked by a donkey, these were all arranged by Zhang Bin.

Zhang Bin wanted to put pressure on Chongzhen through this move, and he estimated that Chongzhen would deal with this matter in a low-key manner, because Xue Guoguan was cultivated by Chongzhen to deal with himself, and Xue Guoguan's henchmen were Chongzhen's tools to deal with him.

Chongzhen definitely doesn't want the court to become his own world, so he will definitely handle Xue Guoguan's corruption case in a low-key manner and try not to involve his henchmen.

The reason why Zhang Bin made a fuss about Xue Guoguan's corruption of millions of taels was that he wanted Chongzhen to not be able to step down, and everyone in the world saw it, and looked at how Chongzhen was perfunctory and let go of Xue Guoguan's henchmen.

However, he still underestimated Chongzhen's face, and the next morning, Chongzhen just said lightly, Xue Guoguan was seriously corrupt, dismissed and investigated, and then started the process as if nothing happened!

The remnants of the eunuch party in the court were already trembling, waiting for Chongzhen to be furious and clean them up, but I didn't expect that after Chongzhen came to say it so lightly, there was no follow-up, as if the first assistant of the cabinet was dismissed and investigated just a dog lost in the palace, and it didn't matter at all!

Of course, the dismissal and investigation of the first assistant of the cabinet is not as simple as losing a dog in the palace, because the first assistant of the cabinet is also responsible for the approval and drafting of the votes, besides, Xue Guoguan also serves as the secretary of the ministry, and there is no shortage of people for these two important positions.

Although Chongzhen said it lightly, he was still quite concerned about Xue Guoguan's successor.

At this time, most of the courtiers thought that Zhang Bin was the first assistant of the cabinet, because Xue Guoguan was a bit unjustified when he forced Zhang Bin to be the first assistant of the cabinet, and it was difficult to say whether he could successfully become the first assistant of the cabinet if Zhang Bin was in the capital at the time.

At this time, Zhang Bin returned to Beijing with the merit of recovering Liaodong, he did not serve as the first assistant of the cabinet, who served as the first assistant of the cabinet!

Chongzhen didn't look for Zhang Bin, and after the end of the early dynasty, he directly ordered someone to recruit Zhou Yanru, a scholar of the new cabinet and the former first assistant of the cabinet, to the imperial study.

Zhou Yanru didn't expect him to be the first assistant of the cabinet at this time, he only thought that Chongzhen was looking for him for the matter of the minister's secretary's book, because his cabinet scholar was still hanging in the gap at this time, and he didn't hold any real power position, he was still more enthusiastic about this minister's secretary's book, Tianguan, who doesn't want to be it.

Sure enough, after the monarch and the ministers saw the courtesy, Chongzhen directly took the school examination and said: "Jade Rope, what do you think about the appointment and dismissal of the current officials?" ”

This tone really wants to make myself the secretary of the ministry!

Zhou Yanru was so excited in his heart, but he didn't show anything abnormal on the surface, Chongzhen didn't like rough people, he still knew this.

He pretended to be humble, and respectfully bowed his hand and said: "Since the emperor asked, Wechen had the courage to say his opinion, Wechen thought that the most important point in the appointment and dismissal of officials at the moment is to be honest, because the disaster in the northwest is serious, and the people can no longer withstand the toss of corrupt officials." ”

When Chongzhen heard this, he nodded approvingly: "A good one is honest, it is well said, now we must reuse honest officials, whoever is corrupt will let him go, and the first assistant of the cabinet is no exception!" ”

This sounds like a bit of a problem, as if corrupt officials can sometimes be used, but they can't be used at this time, in fact, this is a fact, the emperor of the Ming Dynasty is so wonderful, many times they know that some officials are a little corrupt, but they still promote and reuse, such as Yan Song, such as Xu Jue, Emperor Jiajing will not know that they are corrupt, must know a little, but these two people have become the first assistant of the cabinet!

Of course, at this time, Chongzhen does not dare to reuse corrupt officials, a Xue Guoguan has already made him lose face, and if he wants to reuse corrupt officials, it will be a pig.

He asked solemnly: "Speaking of this incorruptibility, jade rope, can you be honest and honest?" ”

It's done, it's done, Zhou Yanru suppressed the excitement in his heart, nodded heavily, and said: "Honest and honest, this is the most basic way to be an official, if Weichen can't do this, then he will have no face to stay in the court." ”

He didn't brag about this, and in history, the reason why he was listed as a traitor was not because of corruption, but because of his incompetence and shamelessness.

Chongzhen nodded with satisfaction: "Okay, I believe you, by the way, what do you think of the current situation?" ”

When Zhou Yanru heard this, he couldn't help but be stunned, what do you mean by this, does the emperor still want to make himself the head of the cabinet!
