203 days unpredictable
The funeral is heavy, and the governor's affairs are also heavy, and ordinary officials only need the signature of their superiors to go home to mourn, but the governor wants the emperor to nod, especially the southeastern governor who is like a marquee.
Yan Song had already prepared a rhetoric and asked Yan Shifan to return to his hometown to guard filial piety for half a year, during this time, there will inevitably be a new governor in the southeast, and Yan Shifan will return to Beijing. Once Yan Shifan returns to Beijing, everything will return to the original track.
It's a good idea, but there will always be accidents, and this time it's a big accident.
The official system of Da Ming Yan is extremely complete, and the Hongwu Yongle era was a powerful weapon for supervising officials across the country, and everyone trembled for fear of being targeted. With the passage of time, the growth of the party, the supervision function of this system has gradually weakened, and the administrative function has been continuously enhanced, and it has become a tool for party struggle today, which is why Yan Song's father and son, who are scolded by everyone in the world, are stable and stable, but Zhang Jing, Wang Chen and other real officials are impeached to death.
Even so, the principle of this system still exists, the strength of the strict party is strong in deterrence, under their group deterrence, no one dares to touch the people of the strict party, but the strict party is not strong enough to control this system, the supervision of the lifeline of the inspectorate has always been directly managed by the emperor, whether it is the shrewd Hu Zongxian or the upright Wang Bengu are the elite produced by the inspectorate, the strict party may be able to deter the majority of the inspectorate, but if there are people who don't want to die, or people who have brain problems, they follow the system, The same can bypass Shousuke and directly sue the emperor to the ear.
Even Wang Shizhen, a friend of the warrior Yang Jisheng, got out of the court, and his clear attitude towards the enemy faction undoubtedly made the situation of the Yan Party more stable.
However, no matter how stable it is, as long as there are people, there are variables.
Seven years and four months after Yang Jisheng impeached Yan Song, a warrior reappeared.
The Inspectorate Seven Grades of Imperial History once scolded Zhang Jing to death and killed Wang Zhi, and now it is shining again. Yu Shi Zou Yinglong's spearhead approached Yan Shifan, listing ten major crimes and countless minor crimes, and did not forget to show his attitude at the end of the impeachment book - Gou Chen's words were untrue, and he was willing to be killed!
Yes, it's not Yan Song, it's Yan Shifan, the impeachment of the governor of the southeast by the imperial history, it seems that it has become a habit.
Yan Song is so old and spicy, he only saw the identity and name of the imperial history, and then looked at the impeachment spearhead, so he knew the strangeness of this matter.
Zou Yinglong's impeachment is completely different from Yang Jisheng.
Yang Jisheng is genuinely desperate, he is not a person from the Inspectorate of the General Administration Department at all, he was born in the military department, and he is loyal to the country to defend the Beijing Division, but he has been repeatedly mistaken by Yan Song, which eventually led to the Gengxu Rebellion, and the soldiers are in trouble, Yang Jisheng knows that as long as the Yan Party is in everything, it is impossible to get better, hate Yan Song to the bone, and do not hesitate to fight with his life, no matter who I am or who you are, I just want to use my life to get you, and it is okay to torture and kill your head.
But this Zou Yinglong is different, most of the officials of the Inspectorate are shrewd and stable, and they don't ask about foreign affairs, but only supervise. From the root, he does not have Yang Jisheng's personal enmity with the Yan Party, and he can't work hard, this is for himself.
Yu Gong, Yan Shifan's crimes are not a day or two, they are measured in ten years, and Zou Yinglong has been in the Inspectorate for ten years, if he knows that righteousness and ugliness are not together, how did he survive so many years? Moreover, Yan Dang's signboard is Shoufu Yan Song, why did he want to find Yan Shifan?
All things considered, Yan Song is very sure that this is a premeditated impeachment, just like Zhao Wenhua impeached Zhang Jing and impeached Wang Chen himself, he had already done enough work before the impeachment, and the impeachment was just a tool to deliver the final blow.
As for the specific crimes, not to mention the imperial history, any child on the street can list a lot.
Stealing patriarchal power and embezzlement, according to the party's private interests.
Funds of the Ministry of Corrupt Labor.
Embezzlement of funds for the reconstruction of Hangzhou.
Gather guests, embrace Yanji, dance and sing, and the human discipline is extinct.
Yan Song didn't understand how he was doing his job under his nose.
The most beautiful part of this job is precisely to take Yan Shifan, because it is useless to knife Yan Song himself, for more than 20 years, the relationship between Yan Song and Jiajing has long surpassed that of monarchs and ministers, and any two people who get along for 20 years will either become friends or enemies.
This afternoon, Yan Song came to the pavilion at the same time as he had been twenty years old, and he hoped to settle this matter as a friend, not as a courtier. But his friend was not there today, only a piece of paper was laid on the stone table, Yan Song walked to the stone table tremblingly, and wrote a very superficial sentence on the paper, which a four-year-old child would memorize.
If the Son does not teach, the Father is guilty.
Yan Song twitched.
A month ago, he was still turning the clouds and rain, getting rid of the long-held grudge Governor Jiliao.
Why is it today, all of a sudden, like this?
returned home in a daze, the order has arrived, Yan Shifan is arrested and imprisoned pending trial, Yan Song's education is improper, he is old, and he returns to his hometown.
Yan Song knelt on the ground to receive the order and thanked him, and he couldn't get up after kneeling for a long time.
He had thought about how it would all end, but he had never thought it would be so sudden.
He thought about thousands of responses, protracted moves, but he never thought that it would be over with just a piece of impeachment.
What, exactly, went wrong?
There is an even more helpless question, who did it?
Ten thousand Zou Yinglong didn't have this ability.
When facing up and down, who has the ability to do this?
……
In the Shaoxing Governor's Mansion, Yan Shifan saw the two Jinyi guards, and also saw the will, and thought about it for a long time.
"I used to know you General Lu, can I avoid being cuffed and caged? I'll send a car, and we'll go back to Beijing comfortably together. ”
And the brocade guards looked at each other, and Mu Mu, the leader, nodded.
Yan Shifan really wanted to run, but they couldn't stop it, and the errand of arresting Yan Shifan was originally a life-or-death deal.
"Rest assured, brothers, I won't run." Yan Shifan immediately called people, "Thank you to the two brothers." ”
The silver two were sent, and the two brocade guards accepted it embarrassedly.
"The two brothers will stay first, and we will leave tomorrow morning."
"This ......"
"There are two silver rewards for returning to Beijing."
"Don't dare to ask for it anymore......" Jin Yiwei said embarrassedly, "In this case, we will set off at dawn tomorrow." The emperor wants to take it, we really don't dare to delay. ”
"Thank you, brother."
Jinyiwei stayed and rested temporarily, and Yan Shifan sighed, this governor of the southeast really didn't do it.
In all fairness, Yan Shifan really didn't make any big mistakes in governing the southeast for a year, because he didn't have any strategy, no plan, and no chance to make mistakes. Yu Dayou commanded the anti-Japanese war, Qi Jiguang, Tang Shunzhi and others checked the various border defenses, although Xu Hai jumped up and down, but after all, it could only reach the level of Zhang Jing's era, as long as the governor did not mess around, there would be no more siege of Nanjing.
