Chapter 835: God Blocks and Kills God (II)

@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@

In September, chrysanthemums bloom all over the city, and the city is full of golden armor.

When the autumn wind becomes cold, in addition to the chrysanthemum huā in the eyes, there is no other fresh huā in Beijing to compete with.

When all the huge forces are actively or passively reining in their minions for one reason or another, the entire Beijing officialdom highlights the Ling Luàn beard......

Gao Gong's purge of the officials unsurprisingly caused an uproar, and public opinion imposed the notoriety of arbitrariness, domineering, intolerance, and dictatorship. However, everyone just gritted their teeth, at most a straw man cursed him, but whoever accused him in person, or wrote a book to impeach him, looking at the court, no one really dared to brush this tiger whisker.

Gao Gong was already holding back his strength, ready for a big counterattack, but who knew that except for occasionally hearing a few words behind him, no one dared to put himself right. I couldn't help but say, 'Hehe, you're scared, aren't you?' He didn't know what was enough, just like he said to Shen Mo, only by thundering and killing the opponent was left behind in order to create conditions for reform.

After washing up and down the officials, Gao Gong replaced half of the vacated positions with his own team, and half with the xiǎo youth that Shen Mo provided to him. Seeing that no one dared to risk angering the bearded man to give them a head, the rest of those who were dissatisfied could only clamp their tails and do errands for him.

After stabilizing the rear, Gao Gong was not in a hurry, and threw out the recital that he and Shen Mo had agreed upon. Instead, he challenged the figure that shrouded the capital...... He knew very well that no matter how good his plan was with Shen Mu, he might not make much of a ripple if he put it forward in the current stubborn and conservative atmosphere. Because although Xu Jie's departure, there is still his team in the DPRK, and the vast majority of officials still regard Xu Jie's policy as a guideline. It can be said that now the court has done this, and it is still the government of Xu Jie, which does not have Xu Jie.

Xu Ge has been raising his hopes for twenty years, and his terrifying influence is enough to make anyone who contradicts his mind unable to exert his hands and feet.

If you want to reform the old and make the new, you must first drive the shadow of the old man with a corrupt spirit out of the capital completely!

Just when he was looking for an opportunity to go berserk, the opportunity was delivered to him......

In the afternoon of that day, Gao Gong returned from the cabinet to sit in the office as usual. Lu Guangzu, who was on duty today, hurriedly handed over the official documents he had processed in the morning to this ancestor for review...... Unlike Yang Bo, who is not confused about big things, and when you do things casually, now this old man of Zhangquan Pavilion treats others and himself very harshly, and no one has anything to do, and he must do it for the benefit of jīng, and there is no room for error. Otherwise, he won't care about you, whether it's shì lang or lang zhong, and make sure that you will be scolded and scolded, so that you regret how you embarked on the road of official career.

In less than two months, Lu Guangzu has been scolded three times, although this is already the record of being scolded the least by Gao Gong's side. But for Lu Shilang, who has always been known for his old and serious attitudes, it is definitely not something to boast about.

Therefore, after presenting the stack of texts, although Lu Guangzu sat down in front of the desk calmly, his whole heart was pinched, lest this tall beard pull his face and turn into a huā to wash his face.

Gao Gong looked very seriously, and Lu Guangzu didn't dare to disturb it, and the signing room was very quiet. It's just that every frown and sigh of Gao Butang will cause Lu Guangzu's heart to tremble for a while, and his whole body will be máo, and he will pray to hurry past the flame mountain of the past two days.

Afraid of something, when Gao Gong saw a copy of the middle book, his face, which had always been normal, went down, but he endured it and didn't say anything, but continued to read. But when he saw that the following one was the same, he threw the two recitals in front of him and said coldly: "In the future, such non-divisive invitations will not be allowed." ”

Lu Guangzu hurriedly took it over and looked at the cover, and he knew the contents inside, it turned out to be the children of Tang Shu and Wang Junmin, officials of the Jiajing Dynasty, who asked the officials for Yin En's recital...... Tang Shu was offended by a big prison in the previous dynasty, and Wang Junmin was offended by a great ceremony, both of which were rehabilitated after the promulgation of the "Jiajing Edict". This kind of begging for grace has been going on all day since the promulgation of the "Edict" two years ago. Many dismissed officials who were not on the list have also taken the opportunity of the amnesty to move around in an attempt to make a comeback.

For a long time, for this kind of Yin Grace Record, because of the banner of "The Edict", and more importantly, everyone knows that this is an important measure for Xu Ge Lao to clean up people's hearts, and no one dares to find unhappiness in it, so except for the great evil people, most of them have been recorded according to the request.

It's just that Lu Guangzu is an old official who knows very well that in addition to the initial batch of loyal and righteous people who have been strictly screened and recognized by the government and the opposition, the next two batches are not as good as a batch, and they have become corrupt by those in power, and it is convenient for those officials who have been deposed by the imperial court because of all kinds of lawlessness...... Lu Guangzu really wants to ask those who are on the list, how many of you dare to pat xiōng and say that he was convicted for his words, and he was wronged and suppressed? The vast majority of them still deserve it.

Later, because the doubts between the government and the opposition became louder and louder, they no longer made a big fuss about the batch of compassionate records. But this behavior has never stopped, it has just changed to writing on their own, and then low-key comics...... Even after Gao Gong returned to the ministry, it was inevitable that he would be disturbed by these beggars all day long, and he was annoyed.

Before today, every time there is an application, it must first be examined in detail whether the petition is in order, and all cases related to the war of words will be rejected; Because all those who have taken bribes and perverted the law are dismissed; Because of the investigation, all those who were deposed were rejected...... However, those people relied on the banner of "Edict", and they took the trouble to write the book repeatedly, and vowed not to give up until they reached their goal.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Seeing that Lu Guangzu was a little stunned, Gao Gong raised his voice and said again: "In the future, all such recitals will be rejected, don't bother me again!" ”

Only then did Lu Guangzu come back to his senses, and he swallowed and foamed: "In this case, I'm afraid it will be contrary to the 'edict of the first emperor'......"

As soon as he thought of the so-called edict of 'offending the ministers because of the advice, saving the summons, and mourning the record', the high arched face was terrible, and he scolded fiercely: "The fart is the name of the fake emperor surnamed Xu, and it is just the name of the fake emperor surnamed Xu!" ”

Only then did Lu Guangzu remember that the origin of the contradiction between Gao Gong and Xu Jie came from the "Jiajing Edict". From an outsider's point of view, Xu Ge Lao did really not be kind at that time, and it was a matter of the general direction of the country in the next few years, how could he put aside other cabinet ministers and find Zhang Juzheng, who was still shì Lang at the time, to co-plan? Doesn't this make it clear that we are self-respecting and don't take the rest of the people into account?

Later, Gao Gong really made trouble with this matter, but he couldn't resist Xu Jie's old scheming, not only did he not succeed, but also splashed him with sewage on his backhand. But after that, the contradiction between the two was completely made public. The rest is well known...... After a struggle, Xu Jie successfully drove Gao Gong home, but before he could catch his breath, he was driven home by the emperor again. In the end, Gao Gong was successfully restored, and he sat in front of him proudly, disdainful of the "Edict" from Xu Jie's hand.

Lu Guangzu is also experienced for a long time, and he is not ambiguous at all in politics, and from Gao Gong's words, he can hear that this old man has the intention of taking the opportunity to attack. In addition, Shen Mo had instructed him to fully cooperate with Gao Gong, even if it was harmful to the southeast, he would report to him after he had done it. So how could Lu Guangzu touch his moldy head? Then he nodded and said: "The subordinates are also very annoying, and they also know that there are many people in the muddy waters, but they are under the banner of "The Edict", as long as there are no obvious evil deeds, there is no reason for the ministry to refuse." ”

"Isn't it a holy decree?" Gao Gong saw that he didn't intercede for those people, and said with a slight face: "I'll also ask for a holy decree, so that this is a fluke!" ”

So he did what he said, and he didn't shy away from Lu Guangzu, so he unfolded a blank notebook, picked up the pen and wrote "Zhenggang Changdingguo is to rely on the holy government", Shu Zhong said:

'The dynasty rules the world with filial piety, and the successive dynasties abide by the principles of monarchs and ministers. However, when the first emperor died and ascended to the top, the ministers of Tuo Gu ignored the courtesies of the monarch and the ministers, blindly played favoritism, and pretended to trust the will of the first emperor, and used all the ministers who were convicted because of the great gifts and prisons, and even promoted to the ministers, and those who had passed away were also given shade. It's ridiculous. ’

Because the 'great gift, which was determined by the first emperor himself, reflects the sincerity and filial piety of the first emperor, and highlights the kindness of the father and son of the monarch and the minister. Moreover, the honorific title of the emperor has been officially promulgated in the "Minglun Grand Ceremony", which has been showing the world for a long time. But now the officials who have been offended by the 'Great Rites Discussion' have all been rewarded with praise, so how can the emperor's spiritual position in the temple be enjoyed? How can the spirit of the first emperor rest in heaven? How does the emperor face his ancestors when he goes to the temple every year to worship? Isn't this a denial of the legitimacy of offering the throne to the emperor? And then the ministers who were offended by their advice, did not a single one deserve it? ’

At this point, his tone became more and more sharp, and he directly complained: "However, the minister of Tuogu does not ask whether he is guilty or not, whether he is virtuous or unscrupulous, as long as he is degraded by the first emperor, he will be reinstated, and as long as he is punished by the first emperor, he will be rewarded." Isn't this contempt for slandering the first emperor? Even King Wu of Zhou was against the Shang government, but he only rehabilitated a few people such as Jizi and Bi Gan, and he had never heard of anyone who was abandoned by the Shang Dynasty. What's more, the present and the first emperor are not two courts, but biological father and son, but they were coerced to destroy the kindness of father and son and the dignity of the royal family, which made Weichen's heart ache! ’

In the end, Gao Gong said sharply: "Since Weichen took charge of the ministry, he has stopped all this kind of overflowing grace, and now there are Tang Shu and Wang Junmin's affairs, if the reason is not explained clearly, I am afraid that the overflow of grace in this generation will become more and more intense and uncontrollable." In today's situation, when the ministers of the dynasty blamed all the faults on the first emperor, and sold the favor to the people below to win the hearts of the people, this kind of behavior was tacitly approved by the world as a normal phenomenon, and did not think of rebellion, is it that the principles of heaven are extinguished and the people's hearts are numb? Therefore, Wei Chen confessed to His Majesty, hoping that the holy oracle would tell the world that from now on, anyone who has indiscriminate favor and blames the emperor will be punished with great disrespect! ”

After writing, Gao Gong handed the song to Lu Guangzu for a look. Although he had been mentally prepared, he still looked at Xiǎo Lu's face turned pale, and he smiled bitterly in his heart: "Sure enough, it's a fairy fart, extraordinary, you have relieved your hatred, but where can you let Xu Ge Lao's face go?" Is the persuasion of Gao Gong more euphemistic?

"Why didn't they think of being more tactful to the first emperor?" Gao Gong waved his hand, and in Lu Guangzu's worried gaze, he sealed the song and asked him to send it to the General Administration.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

His arm couldn't twist the big tuǐ, so Lu Guangzu had no choice but to do it. However, he underestimated Gao Gong's influence on the emperor and underestimated Gao Gong's political acumen...... After only two days of waiting, I learned the news that the emperor had invited Gao Gong! Secretly surprised, I couldn't help but sigh, this bright sky is really about to change!

In fact, many people underestimate Gao Gong's political wisdom, simple and direct means, because he judged the situation and knew that he no longer needed to do Tai Chi. In fact, under the appearance of today's emperor, he actually has a discerning heart, and he has been keenly aware that although Longqing originally supported the "Edict", but two years later this year, the emperor's heart has undergone tremendous changes.

This truth is not difficult to understand, Longqing two years ago, just inherited the throne, has not yet been completed, from a frightened and wronged prince, to the emperor's psychological transformation. At that time, all he wanted was to take revenge on his father and make amends for his suffering. That's why I agreed to the release of the "Jiajing Edict", which completely denied the first emperor from beginning to end.

However, two years have passed, Longqing has completely completed the psychological transformation, although he is still desolate, but no one can deny that he can already stand in the position of an emperor and look at the problem maturely. Then completely denying his father and emperor will become a smear to the royal family and make outsiders laugh at their father and son. In any case, the royal face is the most important, so Long Qing will inevitably regret it, why did he have a hot head in the first place and agreed to bury his father with Xu Jie? And then even Xu Jie, who was prying on himself at the beginning, will hate it together...... I'm young and ignorant, and you're not sensible as an old man in the Orphan Pavilion? Just like this, what is the intention of abducting me to do this unfilial thing?

Gao Gong firmly grasped Xu Jie's disrespect for the first emperor, under the banner of complaining for the first emperor and avoiding the name of unfilial piety today, the absolute chance of winning is in hand! ――

Partition -

It's late in the middle of the year, so I'm ready to correct my attitude, take care of the two watches, and ask for a monthly pass.
