Chapter 876: The Great Coup D'état is Shocking Step by Step (Medium)
Chen in and out, this is the office time of the cabinet. In less than 8 hours, Zhang Siwei, who had finally returned home in more than ten days, appeared in Wenyuan Pavilion.
"Ziwei, it's so early." On the eve of the war, Gao Gong couldn't leave the position, and he was still in the cabinet last night, seeing Zhang Siwei's tired face, he smiled knowingly and said: "*A moment is worth a thousand gold, and it doesn't hurt to come a little late." ”
"How dare you delay the business," Zhang Siwei blushed, and quickly diverted the topic: "Yuan Weng, Zhang Xiang's family entrusted the official to give you a leave, he is sick, he can't come to Chung, and he can't come to the cabinet these days." ”
"Oh......" Gao Gong said with some surprise, "What disease?" ”
"Say it's a hot cold......," Zhang Siwei said, returning to his seat.
"Heat cold? Lack of night sweats is indispensable. Gao Gong laughed and said secretly, do you think I can let you go by hiding at home? Don't wait to get shot, boy
Although there were only two people left at once, Gao Gong didn't care, without the burden of state funerals and enthronement ceremonies, it was no problem for him to be left alone in the cabinet. Although there are few people, the rules cannot be abolished, so the meeting is held on time...... In fact, it is just a high arch to arrange tasks one by one, and Zhang Siwei carefully records them.
Just as Gao Gong was giving orders there, there was a Si Zhilang who came in and said: "Yuan Weng, there is an emperor's holy decree......"
"Oh? Divine decree? Gao Gong was full of suspicion, and blurted out: "Which emperor's holy decree?" ”
Zhongshu was secretly speechless, and whispered: "The new emperor who ascended to the pole yesterday." ”
"At the age of ten, what kind of holy decree will the Son of Heaven make?" Gao Gong's eyebrows were twisted into a Sichuan character, but the conditions that he had cultivated over the years were anti-sh, so he hurried out to receive the order.
"Mr. Gao took the order." The eunuch who came to deliver the edict opened the Ming and Huang edicts in his hand, and Gao Gong had to kneel down to receive the edict, and listened to him read in a long tone: "The emperor's edict: so that the cabinet knows that the legacy of the emperor is respected, and from now on, Meng He will be dismissed from the post of eunuch in charge of the seal, and Feng Bao, the former chief bingpen, will take over, and still supervise Dongchang." Chin this. ”
Hearing this will, Gao Gong felt as uncomfortable as if he had eaten a hundred flies. If there is anything in this world that he hates more than the eunuch's criticism of red, it is the emperor's edict. Since ancient times, emperors have not been as people think, and they can give orders at will. In fact, all his edicts had to be signed by the Chinese Book Agency...... In the days when there were prime ministers, edicts could only be promulgated through the Zhongshu Province and the MN Lower Province. During the reign of Empress Wu of the Tang Dynasty, in order to bypass those ministers who opposed her, she tried to bypass them and directly issued a decree...... But he was forced back by the minister without going through the Fengge Luantai, what is the name of the edict...... At that time, after the martial arts, the Zhongshu Province was changed to Fengge, and the MN Lower Province was Luantai. 8
When the current dynasty changed to a cabinet system, it had to go through the cabinet, and according to the constitution, the emperor's edicts should be drafted by the cabinet. In addition to the cabinet, the General Administration Department and the Six Divisions also have the right to repeat and refute the emperor's edicts at any time. This is the charter of Zhu Yuanzhang, the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty, in order to have a chance to correct deviations and admonish the courtiers once the descendants are not good, and the decree will be obedient to the decree. It can be regarded as a dike built by Emperor Zhu for his country. However, this was tantamount to a mantra for later emperors. After several emperors, political affairs have become increasingly erosive, and the supervision of imperial power cannot be seriously performed. Sometimes when encountering tricky things, the emperor doesn't want the cabinet to hinder him, so he directly sends an edict to the cabinet.
The minister is not helpless with this kind of handwriting. In addition to the cabinet, there are also the General Administration Department and the Six Sections, and they have the right to repeat and refute the emperor's edicts at any time, so the emperor's freedom to issue edicts at any time is more restricted. However, the legal system is the legal system, and the facts are the facts, and in the political situation of despising the legal system and ruling by man as the greatest, the edict still inevitably came out, and it became the 'oblique seal of ink' and the 'central decree' recorded in the annals of history. This is what responsible ministers hate the most.
attaches great importance to power and responsibility, and hopes that the monarch and the minister will be in harmony, and has always been dissatisfied with the central purpose of bypassing the cabinet. What's more, the emperor is only ten years old, and this edict is obviously Feng Bao's self-proclaimed lawlessness, which is another unforgivable crime.
This case must not be opened, otherwise Feng Bao will not be allowed to ride on his neck and? But this kind of thing related to the replacement of the head of Ouchi must have Li Niangniang nodding behind it. If he openly rejected the first will of the new monarch on the throne, he would definitely provoke Feng Yan to be furious, wouldn't it violate the established policy of 'harmony between the palace and the government'?
The high arch kneeling on the ground was so annoyed and entangled that he forgot to take the holy decree.
"Mr. Gao, take the order...... the eunuch had no choice but to urge.
"Okay, give Li Niangniang this face first...... the eunuch urged again, and Gao Gong reluctantly reached out to take the hand, and then stood up. Everyone was dumbfounded, because even the ordinary people knew that you had to reply, 'Obey the order', but he didn't say these three words, so he took the yellow silk in his hand, turned around and walked into the house.
'W-what's going on?' Is it a matter of whether you accept the order or not? The eunuch was dumbfounded, so he had to catch up and ask, "Old man, how do you see the villain going back to his life?" ”
"How to return love to life, how to return to life." Gao Gong had nowhere to vent the evil fire in his belly, and just as he was angry, he roared at him: "You go back and ask Feng Bao whose will it is?" The old man wants to understand that the emperor is only ten years old, and he knows what Zhongzhi is, huh? It's not that you eunuchs are making trouble inside, sooner or later I will ask you to pull up the list and not let me go."
There was a burst of scolding and scolding, and Feng Bao's henchman, who thought that he was the new monarch on the throne and turned over to be the master, scolded him so much that his face was pale, and he didn't dare to say any more, and he even crawled out of Wenyuan Pavilion, not daring to stay for a moment. 8
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Returning to the council hall and sitting in the Taishi chair, Gao Gong was still panting with anger, and said to Zhang Siwei with a red face: "Have you heard everything about Fang Cai?" ”
Zhang Siwei nodded, he could hear it clearly, and he was quite unimpressed by Gao Gong's reaction...... The heart said that since you have received the will, why should you be quick to speak for a while, and give the villain the truth of chewing the tongue in vain? But this kind of thing, at most, can only be thought about in his heart, and he doesn't dare to say it. Then I went to the basin shelf in the corner of the hall, took a white motowel, soaked it and wrung it out, and handed it to Gao Gong.
Gao Gong took it, wiped the sweat on his head, and sucked a cup of herbal tea, before slowly adjusting his emotions, and sighed: "The emperor bypassed the cabinet and issued a central decree, saying that according to the last emperor's teachings, let Feng Bao take over the helm of the ceremonial supervisor." I only ascended to the pole yesterday, and I made an order early this morning, not to give people any chance to turn around, you say, the new emperor is a ten-year-old child, does he have such a mind? ”
Zhang Siwei shook his head and said softly: "The emperor is not yet old enough to make up his own mind. After a pause, he said: "But if it is the order of the first emperor, it is naturally a different matter." ”
"The day before the first emperor died, I was called to the Qianqing Palace to listen to the edicts, and no matter what happened to the two edicts, there was no mention of Feng Bao's name on them." Gao Gong said with a disdainful face: "It should be the order of the first emperor, why didn't you make an order earlier, and you have to wait until you are dying before you make such an appointment?"
"Now that the first emperor Bintian can't verify it," Zhang Siwei said softly: "It's okay for us to talk about these words, can we openly question Jinshang?" Said meaningfully: "Yuan Weng, although the emperor is only ten years old, he is our monarch after all." "The fame is there, the righteousness is there, how do you always sing the right game?
"Hey......" Gao Gong was depressed here, knowing that they were pulling tiger skin to make a banner, but he couldn't expose it. There was a burst of nests in his heart, and an old face was terrifyingly black, but he had no way to vent, so he could only turn into a sentence and say: "The ten-year-old emperor, how can he rule the world?" ”
"......" Zhang Siwei didn't dare to take this stubble, so he had to change the conversation and said tentatively: "According to the student, since the wood has been completed, should Yuan Weng consider it and repair the relationship with the celebrant supervisor, after all, they will have to cooperate in political affairs in the future, if they hinder it......"
"Ball" Gao Gong rudely interrupted his words, and said with a look of disgust: "You think I am Zhang Juzheng's shameless thing? ”
"Yuan Weng, Feng Bao has been the companion for many years, and he has won the trust of Li Niangniang, and now he has become the head of the inner house, and he has also supervised the East Factory," the words have been said about this, if you don't explain it, it will make Gao Gong misunderstand, so Zhang Siwei stubbornly said: "He is no longer what he used to be, and he can no longer look at him with the eyes of the past." ”
"Even if his tail reaches to the sky, he is still a dog, at best a dog in human skin," Gao Gong said with deep disdain.
"But the owner of this dog is Li Guifei, and it depends on the owner to beat the dog." Zhang Siwei persuaded bitterly.
"Don't say it again" Gao Gong raised his hand to stop his persuasion and said: "I am the first emperor's minister, could it be that Li Niangniang will turn her face with me for a dog?" Saying that, his expression became grim and said, "Ziwei, let's be honest, it's not just the eunuch who has a problem now. If you think about it, from the two edicts before the death of the first emperor to the new monarch's accession to the throne, the thunderous decrees are interlocking, so fast that we don't have time to react. Is this something that Feng Bao's idiot can come up with? These tricks all came from the villain's head. As he spoke, he pointed to Zhang Juzheng's duty room and said, "That guy is in collusion with Feng Baoxin, and he has reached the point of madness. I said a word in the cabinet, and Feng Bao knew it immediately; What Feng Bao wants to do over there, ventilate with him first. Why didn't he come today, wasn't it because he was worried that I would scold his mother as soon as the decree came out, so he hid at home and didn't meet me. Their collusion has become a trend, if we still think about retreating and suing for peace, sooner or later we will be driven out of the imperial court, even if he keeps you as a foil, you are just an ornament, it is difficult to help the country's major affairs, what is the point of being this kind of official? Gao Gong's words couldn't be more realistic.
Zhang Siwei smiled bitterly secretly, isn't this the case now? But he still asked with a concerned face: "According to Yuan Weng's opinion, how should I deal with it now?" ”
Gao Gong looked at him, and said with a gloomy face: "The old man is already in the age of Huājia, after the two dynasties of Jialong, he has won and killed, and he has been intriguing for 30 years. It's better to go back, take a leisurely tour of the forest, enjoy the evening view of mulberry elm, why not? ”
"......" Don't look at Zhang Siwei who has been low and small all these years, as if he is very weak, there is no way. As Yang Bo's handpicked replacement, how could he really be so weak? As soon as I heard it, I knew that Gao Gong was testing himself, or testing the attitude of the Jin Party, and after a little sinking, he shook his head and said: "The new monarch is still Chongling, you are the minister of the first emperor, the pillar of the Ming Dynasty, at this time, the previous request to Zhishi, it seems that there is a failure to the trust of the first emperor......"
"Not bad." Gao Gong understood what Zhang Siwei meant, and said: "The first emperor is as kind as the sky, the old man can only swear to die to repay the original Gu life, I swear, according to the ancestral law, do my best to be loyal and assisted, if someone dares to bully the young of the East Palace, hulun sacred heart, I will uphold justice, maintain the court, put life and death aside from the degree, how can the husband be untrustworthy"
"Daming has a humerus like you, which is really a blessing for the emperor and a blessing for the country." Zhang Siwei deeply admired Gao Gong's fearless momentum, but he also felt that he was narrow-minded and reckless, and he would definitely suffer a big loss if he acted like this, so he said euphemistically: "However, the ancients were wise and wise to protect themselves, and Yuanfu should also remember ......."
"Zhang Juzheng colluded with Feng Bao, it has been heard all over the world, the old man wants to uphold the law, uphold the dynasty, and be able to protect himself?" Gao Gong shook his head and said: "Ziwei, I have already decided, I must take advantage of them not yet to gain a firm foothold, fight back, and catch them off guard, so as to eliminate future troubles for the common people of the society, do you support me?" ”
"This ......" Zhang Siwei thought for a moment, and finally nodded slowly: "Naturally, Yuan Weng's horse head is the foresight." ”
"Okay, I'll dictate, you write, and we'll draft a few pieces together." Gao Gong stood up and paced back and forth in the hall, typing out his thoughts into a draft and considering the text. Zhang Siwei walked to the front of the desk, grinding ink and stretching paper. In a few moments, the study room was filled with the fragrance of ink, and everything was ready. Zhang Siwei picked up a tube of jingzhi sheep's hair, and in front of him was a special cabinet note, waiting for Gao Gong to speak.
However, to his surprise, the first line of Gao Gong's dictation was not about the regime, but about the topic of the queen mother's honorific title for the two palace mothers. And in the end, he said that according to the rule, the emperor ascended to the pole, to give the palace concubine a batch of head jewelry, although the emperor has not yet married, but there are still the widows of the first emperor in the palace, the ceremony can not be abolished, and the household department allocated 200,000 taels of silver to create a batch of high-quality jewelry, please Li Niangniang on behalf of the emperor to give Yunyun......
Zhang Siwei couldn't help but laugh secretly, it turned out that this old fighter was not only blindly ruthless, but also knew that he wanted to show favor to the harem and reduce resistance.
After the writing of this "Look at the Detailed Etiquette Ministry's Discussion of the Two Palaces", Gao Gong's deliberately flattering tone was gone, and the words were like knives, and he said vigorously: "The university scholar Gao Gong and other serious topics: for the special Chen urgent matters, in order to rely on the new political affairs." Hereby meet the emperor for the first time on the throne, at the beginning of the general overview of tens of thousands, all the urgent matters, the ministers and others are respectfully open and enterprising, and wish for the holy view, and give special implementation. The ministers are overwhelmed with admiration, and they have a title to hear about ......
