Chapter 425: The Human Heart, the Pulse
Chapter 425
Probably when dealing with Wang Zhen, the people in the inner court around the imperial study were replaced by Jin Ying with hardcore, so the bigwigs of the outer dynasty did not receive any relevant news.
So, the next day, at the small court meeting, a group of civil ministers and military generals were eager to try, and they wanted to impeach Wang Zhen fiercely, after all, Wang Zhen was "invited" into the palace by the people of Jinyi Wei from the Huangzhuang in the east of the city last night, everyone still knows, such a big battle, can't hide it.
However, before everyone could speak, they saw Zhu Qizhen sitting on the dragon chair sighing first, and directly came to preemptively: "The day before yesterday, I saw the performance of Wang Yong, the guard in brocade, and I was very unhappy, so I pressed it for a few days, and yesterday I called my eldest companion into the palace and asked carefully. ”
Originally, a face full of entanglement, wanting to stand up for work to ignite the war, Ducha Yushi immediately stopped, and the nervous look on his face turned into happiness.
Jumping out is to pull hatred, although there are a lot of bigwigs behind to support him, but when the emperor really wants to strangle him to relieve his anger, will the bigwigs jump out to help him break the siege?
Of course...... No.
The ministers below, you look at me, I look at you, his face is a little puzzled, the emperor's performance today is too calm, calm is a little bit like a nineteen-year-old young man, so everyone did not speak, waiting for the emperor's further instructions.
"I know people and faces, but I don't know my heart." Zhu Qizhen shook his head and let out a long sigh, "My great companion has been with me for so many years, but there are times when I do things behind my back. ”
The official below looked a little weird, and said that he had done a lot behind your back, but for some reason, the ones I showed you must have nothing to do with our foreign courts, and we just want to kill Wang Zhen.
"When Emperor Taizu set up the Department of General Administration, there was a saying that 'political affairs are like water', which means that the upper and lower levels are accessible, and I had to follow the ancestral teachings and reprimand Wang Zhen." Zhu Qizhen continued.
And then the faces of the courtiers below are not so good-looking, such a big matter, you just reprimand and it's over? You're funny, aren't you?
Cao Nai, who was a little hot-tempered, shook the sleeves of his robe, and was about to stand up for work, but thanks to Chen Xun's quick eyes, he grabbed him, pulled him back fiercely, and said in the lowest suppressed voice: "Brother Wan Zhong, don't be impatient." ”
Zhu Qizhen glanced at the audience, his eyes turned between Chen Xun and Cao Nai, and then continued: "It is not in accordance with the rules to send my companion to prison just by the words of a Jinyi guard, otherwise it will be difficult for me to make a decision if there is a Diao Min suing which Shangshu here one day." ”
Cao Nai's thoughts when he heard this, he originally wanted to pull a hand, but he was gone in an instant, the emperor's words were already very explicit, if he really punished Wang Zhen with this reason, and even directly chopped off Wang Zhen's head, then in the future, if someone sues the scholars and scholars of the dynasty, will they also handle it according to the regulations? The outer court can find a brocade-clothed guard Wang Yong to sue Wang Zhen, and the inner court can naturally find an ambassador of the warehouse and the ambassador of the library to sue the six Shangshu.
Precedents are terrible, so if you can't open them, don't open them.
Seeing that the most dishonest people present lowered their heads, Zhu Qizhen nodded with satisfaction: "But the law of the country is like a furnace, everything must have a result, this piece has been handed over to my desk, and it must be thoroughly investigated to have a result." ”
As soon as this sentence came out, many people's hearts fell back into their stomachs.
Now the forces of the outer dynasty are obviously pressing the inner court, no matter how awesome the emperor is, it is useless, especially Wang Zhen has done so many immoral things, and he can't wash the floor cleanly, if anyone dares to give Wang Zhen a head, then kill him!
"Now there are wars in the east, west, south, and north, and the important ministers in Beijing all have important tasks on their bodies, that is, Ma Shun, the commander of the Jinyi Guard, is also running around." His Majesty the Emperor looked sad, "But I don't know which Qing family is willing to share my worries." ”
As soon as a group of bigwigs heard this, one or two stopped talking.
Although Wang Zhen looks like he is already a dead cricket, who knows when he will be resurrected and who will give him a bite? The hundred-legged insect is dead but not stiff, this Wang Zhen is now, not to mention that there are three hundred feet, and not all of them are Xue Xuan who has been bouncing in the court these years, of course, he will not face Wang Zhengang.
Jin Ying stood beside Zhu Qizhen with his hands down, and when he saw this posture, the light of information flashed in his eyes, to be honest, Zhu Qizhen's rhetoric and actions today were all designed with his help, as an old fritter with four dynasties, he can be said to have a very thorough understanding of the mentality of these people in the foreign dynasty.
Thinking of this, Jin Ying's fists were clenched, if he could directly leave the emperor with the impression of "no last resort" with this incident, then the emperor's trust in him in the future would naturally have to go up a step.
Zhu Qizhen looked at the people in the hall, and the corners of his mouth were filled with a happy smile: "Your family is busy with official business, and now there are wars in the south, east, west, and northwest, and the chanting of scriptures is not good in recent years. ”
According to the right reason, the Metropolitan Procuratorate does have this authority, but at this time, Chen Yi, the right capital of the imperial history, just wants to scold his mother, this is a hot potato, it is no problem to throw it to the Criminal Department and Dali Temple, why do you throw it to me?
If Lao Tzu doesn't investigate to the end, the foreign court will find me trouble; If I track it down to the end, the emperor will definitely look at me unpleasantly, after all, looking at this posture, the emperor still has to protect Wang Zhen.
In other words, if you kill Wang Zhen, if you want to go further in the future, it will be difficult to climb to the sky; If you don't kill Wang Zhen, I'm afraid that I won't be able to do it for long.
In short, inside and outside are not people.
However, turning his head slightly, looking at the expressions of his colleagues in the Criminal Department and Dali Temple next to him, Chen Yi knew that he couldn't push this rotten job out by himself, so he sighed, took a step out of the class, knelt on the ground, and shouted long live: "Your Majesty, rest assured, the minister will not disgrace his mission." ”
This was said very vaguely, and he didn't say anything "return Wang Zhen's innocence" or "investigate this matter to the end", so the emperor expressed his satisfaction with this, and the officials of the foreign dynasty were a little understanding, but they looked at Chen Yi with a little disdain, after all, ...... It's not them who die generously, and if they choose not to die generously, they have to despise it in order to appear noble, right?
