Chapter 75: The Tongue Blooms in front of the Emperor
As soon as Zhang Zhijie entered the Qianqing Palace and saluted the emperor, the eunuch came in to report to him, and Liu Jian, a cabinet scholar, came to see him.
Liu Jian has been a scholar for many years and has always been valued by the emperor, and when Emperor Hongzhi heard it, he announced him in!
Zhang Zhijie understood when he heard it, this old boy is here to find fault today!
Liu Jian came in to greet the emperor, and the emperor's health was much better, seeing Zhang Zhijie's expressionless face, he stood quietly to the side, and said with a smile: "Zhijie, I haven't seen a scholar yet, this is my minister!" ”
The emperor was watching from the side, Zhang Zhijie heard this, smiled respectfully and saluted: "I've seen the bachelor!" ”
When Liu Jian saw Zhang Zhijie's appearance, his beard shook angrily and said: "I can't afford it, I can't afford it, the old man can't afford to be the courtesy of Lord Tongzhi!" ”
When the emperor saw Liu Jian like this, he smiled and said, "What's the matter?" Zhijie is still a junior, and he should respect his predecessors. ”
Liu Jian shook his beard and said: "How can an old minister who is about to enter the ground get into the eyes of Lord Tongzhi!" ”
Zhang Zhijie saw Liu Jian slandering himself in front of the emperor like this, and retorted with a smile: "The words of the bachelor, the lower officials are really confused when they hear it. I met Master Bachelor in the palace just now, and the lower official saluted respectfully! ”
Zhang Zhijie then smiled sincerely: "If the Master Bachelor is not satisfied with this, it is okay for the official to kneel down and greet the Master Scholar in the future." After all, the bachelor is the emperor's minister, and he owes it to the society! ”
Liu Jian listened to Zhang Zhijie's words, his face that had just improved turned blue again, and he pointed at Zhang Zhijie and said loudly: "You are a heart-wrenching word!" You're saying this from the heart! ”
Zhang Zhijie saw Liu Jianqi's beard shake and trembled, for fear that he would not be able to turn around angrily, and said with a sincere smile: "The lower officials don't dare, the lower officials don't dare, the lower officials are young and ignorant, if Meng Lang says the wrong thing for a while, I hope that the bachelor Haihan!" ”
Emperor Hongzhi saw Zhang Zhijie's respectful look, and he did not look disrespectful to Liu Jian.
Hearing that Zhang Zhijie met Liu Jian in the palace and greeted him, Liu Jian was still so nitpicky, he couldn't help but feel a little unhappy, and he didn't have such big rules in his heart!
Indeed, Emperor Hongzhi was a forgiving emperor, and if any courtiers lost their manners, he would not blame!
Emperor Hongzhi thought for a moment in his heart, and guessed some. Jin Yiwei is now investigating the assassination of the prince, listening to Shi Wenyi's report, there are many people involved, presumably according to the temperament of civil officials, I can't stand it anymore!
Emperor Hongzhi said to the mud: "Okay, it's just a little thing, what's there to be noisy about!" ”
Zhang Zhijie and Liu Jian listened to the emperor's speech and hurriedly listened respectfully to the hadith.
Emperor Hongzhi continued: "Zhijie is young after all, and he is reckless, and the elder of the pavilion is also more considerate and instructs him." ”
Emperor Hongzhi said to Zhang Zhijie again: "The old man of the pavilion is highly respected, he is an important minister of the society, there are many places worth learning from you, be respectful, learn more!" ”
Emperor Hongzhi picked up three notebooks, handed them to Zhang Zhijie and said: "There are three imperial historians who impeach you, and you release the traitor privately, you have a nose and eyes, although I don't believe it, but there is an impeachment of the imperial history, and you need to defend yourself!" Tell me about it! ”
Zhang Zhijie said sadly: "Your Majesty, the minister was robbed by the traitor that day and almost died outside!" It took a lot of hardship to escape! The minister really can't think of a reason, why would the minister let go of the traitor! ”
Liu Jian was about to speak as soon as he pouted his beard, and Zhang Zhijie's tone changed and said: "This is slander, the minister asks for the arrest of the three imperial historians and the interrogation of Jinyiwei!" ”
Liu Jian listened and said hurriedly: "It's really unreasonable! Your Majesty, the imperial history has the right to say things, how can you be convicted for words! If this example is opened, which imperial history will dare to speak in the future! ”
Liu Jian pointed at Zhang Zhijie and said: "Your Majesty, this Zhang Zhijie is young after all, how can he take on the great responsibility of Jinyiwei, if Jinyiwei is like this in the future, it will be chaotic!" Please dismiss Zhang Zhijie Jinyi Wei as the commander of the Tongzhi! ”
When the emperor heard this, he frowned and said to Zhang Zhijie: "This dynasty has never been guilty of words, you tell me the reason, let me listen!" ”
Zhang Zhijie said respectfully: "Qiqi Sheng, the minister was knocked unconscious, so the minister doesn't know how many traitors there are!" The former Jinyi Guard's commander made Master Mu take the Jinyi Guard to exterminate the traitor! When the minister went, it was already over, and He Laichen let go of the traitor! ”
Zhang Zhijie continued: "Your Majesty, maybe there are really fish that have slipped through the net, but only the traitor himself can know the truth!" This kidnapper is in the same league as the person who assassinated His Royal Highness the Prince! Now some people are making a fuss about this, it must be related to the rebellion against the party! ”
Liu Jian saw Zhang Zhijie pulling this to the rebel party, and knew that it was not good, so he hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, the imperial history has become a chaotic party!" It's ridiculous! ”
Zhang Zhijie said with a smile: "Master Bachelor, don't talk nonsense, the lower officials didn't say it, the three imperial histories are chaotic parties!" The subordinate interrogated the three imperial histories, but he just wanted to understand where this wind of rumors came from, it can't be fabricated out of thin air! In this way, the three imperial histories can also be innocent! ”
Emperor Hongzhi nodded when he heard this and said, "What Zhijie said also makes sense!" I also want to know, where does this wind come from? ”
Liu Jian heard this and wanted to refute, but he didn't know how to refute it, so he could only arch his hand and say: "Your Majesty, under the torture of this brocade guard, I am afraid that there will be injustice, so it is better to interrogate the three law divisions, ask the truth, and give the three imperial historians a clean slate!" ”
Zhang Zhijie said with a smile: "Your Majesty, the matter involves a conspiracy to assassinate the party, so it is naturally found out by Jinyiwei, and it is a trivial matter, and He Lao will be tried by the three law divisions!" And the minister promises not to use torture! ”
The emperor thought about it, since the assassination of the prince was investigated by Jinyiwei, it was more appropriate to hand over the matter to Jinyiwei.
The emperor nodded and said: "Then leave this matter to Jinyiwei, remember, no torture shall be used!" ”
Zhang Zhijie bowed down and smiled: "The minister's order!" ”
Liu Jian was extremely angry when he heard this, and he wanted to hit the arrogance of Jinyiwei, but he made himself disgraced. How long has it been since this happened?
Liu Jian misses the time when Mu Bin was still the commander of Jinyiwei, when Jinyiwei was as docile as a sheep under the leadership of Mu Bin!
But now, as soon as Mu Bin stepped down, Jinyiwei ripped off the sheepskin and showed his fangs, and everyone's life was not easy now!
The peaceful and calm time in the court is gone, Shi Wenyi is insidious and cunning, this Zhang Zhijie is arrogant and domineering, and the court will have to mess up again in the future!
More importantly, this Zhang Zhijie, he has a very good relationship with His Royal Highness the Prince, and now the saint has experienced this illness, and his body has taken a sharp turn for the worse, if the emperor is a great ......
Liu Jian looked at Zhang Zhijie's hurried figure and felt extremely frightened to think about it.
can't let it go on like this, you must go back and talk to Li Dongyang and them.
