Chapter 406: The Mind of the Son of Heaven

Seeing Zhengde gritting his teeth, Empress Dowager Zhang was amused. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

"If the emperor does this, I'm afraid no one will dare to admonish him in the future."

Zhengde was unconvinced: "Do you just watch them frame Mr. Xie?" ”

Empress Dowager Zhang said curiously: "Why is the emperor so sure that the officials are framing Xie Shen? ”

"Isn't that simple? Mr. Xie became a cabinet scholar at a young age, and some people were red-eyed. ”

Emperor Zhengde spread his hands and said helplessly.

"There's some truth to that."

Although she had a prejudice against Xie Shen, Empress Dowager Zhang also had to admit that what the emperor said was reasonable.

Somehow, she choked on the words she had prepared. Coupled with the fact that the emperor was on Xie Shen's side, it seemed that it would be useless for her to say anything.

"Since the emperor has made up his mind, this palace will not say much."

Empress Dowager Zhang only felt tiredness, waved her hand and said, "The palace is tired, the emperor should go and be busy with political affairs." ”

Zhengde saluted the Empress Dowager Zhang and respectfully retreated.

As soon as Zhengde came out of the Queen Mother's bedroom, Gu Dayong stepped forward and said, "Is the emperor going to the Qianqing Palace or the leopard room now?" ”

Since the Son of Heaven moved out of the Forbidden City to live in the leopard room, the Qianqing Palace, which served as the emperor's bedroom, has been idle. Although there will be a daily cleaning of the internal supervisor, if the emperor comes back, he will have to clean it thoroughly.

Gu Dayong was like the head of the eunuchs after Liu Jin's downfall. But he was really unlucky, and caught up with Qian Ning, a sycophant, to take the position.

This gentleman accompanied the Son of Heaven to eat, drink and have fun, and presented the beauty of Fangshu, which won the favor of the Son of Heaven.

Under the bewitchment of this person, the Son of Heaven was a lot more indifferent to Gu Dayong and the other internal eunuchs who had been with him from the East Palace.

In this regard, Gu Dayong is naturally unhappy, but he has no other way to be unhappy. After all, it is up to the Son of Heaven to decide who is favored, and whether or not he can get the favor of the Son of Heaven depends on his ability.

can't compare to Qian Ning, that is called inferior to others, although he is annoyed in his heart, he can't be angry.

However, listening to Zhang Yong, who was waiting for the Son of Heaven in the leopard room, Qian Ning's holy family has decreased a lot recently, because the elder of Xiaoge recommended a Xuanfu person named Jiang Bin.

This man was the commander of the affairs of Ulzhou, and because of his remarks against the Tatars, he was appreciated by the Son of Heaven and was able to accompany him.

Originally, only Qian Ning could sleep with the Son of Heaven, but now Jiang Bin can also do it, which is enough to see that Qian Ning's holy favor has been divided a lot.

"Go to the Cabinet!"

Emperor Zhengde gritted his teeth and said.

"Emperor, go to the cabinet?"

Gu Dayong was stunned for a moment. Did he hear him right? The Son of Heaven actually wants to set up a cabinet?

Emperor Zhengde rolled his eyes and said, "Why, can't I go to the cabinet?" ”

Gu Dayong didn't dare to even say.

"I'd like to see what the attitude of some of my scholars is in this matter."

Emperor Zhengde flicked his sleeves and said abruptly.

......

......

A row of low-rise rooms next to Wenyuan Pavilion is where the cabinet scholars are on duty.

On duty today is the first assistant Li Dongyang, but Xie Qian and Xie Shen are also there.

Under the auspices of Li Dongyang, the three scholars classified the music as usual, and then sent someone to the celebrant supervisor.

As auxiliary ministers of the cabinet, their task is to draw up opinions for the Son of Heaven on the national submission, and then the Son of Heaven will judge them.

This task is even more important when the day is fun.

If they want the empire to keep running, they'll have to pull it out.

The emperor has already left it alone, and if the cabinet continues to mess around, things in this world will be really messed up.

"Siming, there are a few more notes to impeach you."

Li Dongyang sighed, his eyes full of helplessness.

"Xiya Gong doesn't have to worry, this is all expected."

Li Dongyang shook his head and said, "In that case, why did Siming recommend Jiang Bin in the first place." The old man believes you, but the princes of the court and the central government don't know the inside story, I'm afraid they will wronged you. ”

Xie Shen put down his hand and said: "What do they think, they don't care, they only know that His Majesty is arbitrary, and they will never be bewitched by them." Someone has to do this, otherwise Channing's position will really be untouched. ”

Li Dongyang looked at Xie Qian again: "What do you think of Yu Qiao?" ”

Xie Qian said in a deep voice: "Brother Xiya, you might as well wait and see how this matter changes. The people who played the music were all seven-grade officials, all of whom were secretly instructed by Qian Ning. As long as there is no important minister of the ministry to impeach Siming, Xiya Gong does not need to move. ”

"Hmm." Li Dongyang nodded lightly. What Xie Qian said was also what he thought. At the moment, the first to strike will fall behind, it is better to wait and see, maybe that Qian Ning will take the initiative to expose his flaws.

"Your Majesty has arrived!"

A sharp chant sounded outside the duty room, and the three of them were stunned.

The Son of Heaven in the Cabinet?

It seems that since the Son of Heaven ascended the throne, he hasn't been in the cabinet for more than a year, right?

What's going on today?

Unable to care about much, the three of them hurriedly walked out of the duty room to greet them.

"Minister Li Dongyang... Ministers, Xie Qian... Minister Xie Shen greeted His Majesty. ”

The three of them are all cabinet ministers, and they don't need to bow down if they have the permission of the Son of Heaven.

Therefore, the three of them bowed and bowed, and then stood with their hands tied.

The corners of Zhengde's mouth were slightly hooked: "The three Qing families are here, that's just right." ”

Zhengde walked into the duty room, found a chair and sat down at random, and said, "I am here for Mr. Xie's impeachment. ”

Li Dongyang's heart sank, and he really said what he was talking about. The Son of Heaven came to the cabinet for the first time, and sure enough, it was for Xie Shen's impeachment.

"Your Majesty, this must be framed by Xiao Xiaochen."

Li Dongyang, as the first assistant, still can't hesitate when it's time to express his position.

The emperor glanced at the piled up notes on the public case, frowned, and said, "These are also to impeach Mr. Xie?" ”

"It's the other way around, it's really the other way around!"

The emperor only felt that he was being coerced by the officials, and said angrily in his heart: "Are they not satisfied if I don't punish Mr. ”

Xie Qian said with a bitter face: "Your Majesty, Jiang Bin's dedication to the imperial court to resist the Tartars can be regarded as fulfilling his duty, and it seems unfair to be reprimanded as a minister by the official like this. As for Xiao Ge Lao, he is even more brave and loyal. ”

So far, I can only praise Jiang Bin, but fortunately, he still has something to boast about.

Zhengde slapped the table and said: "I think that someone is planning to manipulate this matter, otherwise how could there be so many notes to impeach Mr. Xie at the same time." ”

Emperor Zhengde was not stupid, on the contrary, he was very smart.

He had already seen that someone was secretly arranging, but he hadn't guessed who this person was.

"Your Majesty is wise."

Xie Qian flattered, and said in a pause: "Actually, it's very simple to know who is framing Xiao Ge Lao, just see who benefits the most." ”

This is the most effective method, Zhengde nodded frequently after listening to it.

The impeachment of Xie Shen was submitted shortly after he recommended Jiang Bin, and they all grasped the matter.

If Xie Shen is punished, Jiang Bin will definitely not be able to escape, and the person who has benefited the most is about to come out.
