Chapter 427: Returning Home
Everyone is selfish, and so is the emperor. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
As a superior person, he is accustomed to looking down on all beings, and naturally wants to see a situation of subservience and competition. In this way, he only needs to come forward and mediate in due course.
Of course, this is not to say that the emperor really wants his courtiers to fight each other. If it really gets out of control, who will handle government affairs for him, and how should the huge court function?
Therefore, as long as there is no situation of forming a party for personal gain, the emperor will mostly turn a blind eye.
What's more, when today's son has an easy-going personality, he doesn't think much about people on the dark side, as long as he pays attention to it, there will be no big problems.
Li Dongyang coughed and said, "It's okay, it's really not appropriate for Siming and Yu Qiao to go, so the old man will go on a trip." ”
It's no wonder that Li Dongyang is cautious, the current situation is really delicate, and the balance between eunuchs and courtiers has been broken, so Qian Ning Jiangbin and others will appear.
It can be said that these two people came into being with a strong cabinet.
If the cabinet is too aggressive in this matter, it will be counterproductive.
Xie Shen originally thought that Emperor Zhengde was obsessed with having fun, so he reused Qian Ning, Jiang Bin and others. It seems that he is still too young.
However, it was said that it was three days in the blink of an eye, and three days later, the Criminal Department, Dali Temple, and the Metropolitan Procuratorate had a result in the interrogation of Jiang Bin and Jiao Fang.
In the end, Tu Xun, the secretary of the Criminal Department, wrote a letter and submitted it to the emperor.
Due to the special circumstances of this case, the cabinet did not draft a vote in order to avoid suspicion, but directly forwarded it to the leopard room for the emperor's imperial inspection.
This was the first time after Emperor Zhengde ascended the throne.
Accustomed to the cabinet's big package, such a cold and unscrupulous cadre gang made a decision, and Emperor Zhengde was quite uncomfortable.
He carefully read the notes on Tu Xun, the secretary of the Criminal Department, and the evidence was conclusive, and it seemed that the two were really colluding.
The ministers and close ministers colluded with each other and did something to frame Zhongliang, which made Emperor Zhengde very angry.
He wanted to shield and protect Jiang Bin, but he was not in the mood at this time.
The result of the proposed disposition of the Criminal Department was to remove Jiao Fang from his official post and exile Jiang Bin to Yunnan.
The result of this disposition is the result of a long discussion between the Criminal Department, Dali Temple, and the Metropolitan Procuratorate.
Although Jiao Fang is hateful, he is a civil official after all, and the so-called punishment is not a doctor, and he is not a courtesy.
Naturally, he can't be too ruthless with Jiao Fang, otherwise if he falls and follows his colleagues in the future, wouldn't it be lifting a stone to shoot himself in the foot?
As for Jiang Bin, it is indeed a heinous crime, and it is not too much to be executed. But Tu Xun didn't know what the attitude of the Son of Heaven was. If the Son of Heaven remembers Jiang Bin's old feelings, but he drafts a judgment of immediate decision, doesn't it disgust the Son of Heaven?
But he didn't dare to sentence too lightly.
If the sentence is too light, the cabinet will not be satisfied, and he will be infamous as Jiang Bin's friend, and the gains will outweigh the losses.
The punishment of exile in Yunnan is not severe, but it is not light.
As for how to judge in the end, of course, it is up to the Son of Heaven to decide.
Tu Xun just gave a proposal to make the Son of Heaven worry. He has already made a decision within the scope of his duties, and he has done his duty.
Emperor Zhengde had mixed feelings when he saw this letter, and he had no opinion on Jiao Fang's verdict, so the old man simply sent him back to his hometown to retire. But Jiang Bin made him a little reluctant to give up.
Will they really exile him?
If he did, he was afraid that he would really be alone.
Alas, it's hard.
Emperor Zhengde has been pressing the criminal department and not making a statement. This made the ministers suspicious, what kind of attitude the Son of Heaven had towards this matter. Do you want to be angry with thunder and be ruthless, or do you want to focus on the two of them?
Many courtiers took a wait-and-see attitude towards this matter, and the wave of chaos that the cabinet had expected did not seem to have arrived.
However, the situation changed on the third day of the lunar month, and the first assistant Li Dongyang marched to the Son of Heaven, listing dozens of crimes against Jiao Fang and Jiang Bin, and one stone stirred up a thousand waves. The officials of the temples and temples of the various ministries and the Metropolitan Procuratorate have accompanied them.
The Son of Heaven just wants to protect Jiang Bin, and it is difficult to speak out in the face of such a situation.
Finally, on the fifteenth day of the lunar month, the Son of Heaven could no longer hold on, and decided to make a judgment from the Criminal Department, dismiss the cabinet minister Jiao Fang as a citizen, and send thousands of households in Jinyi to Yunnan.
For a time, the government and the opposition were jubilant, and the ministers shouted long live, and they had the appearance of a gentleman and a virtuous minister, and a prosperous and prosperous age.
Xie Shen didn't know how much role Li Dongyang played in the process of this game between monarchs and ministers.
Was it the mainstay or the straw that broke the camel's back?
But at the moment it doesn't matter, the important thing is that they are already on the winning side.
History has always been written by the victors, so at least there is no need to worry about being smeared in history.
......
......
Thousands of households always replace the new peach with the old one.
After the first month, the new year has arrived.
The early spring of the second year of Zhengde was quite vibrant.
Xie Shen wrote to the Son of Heaven to request that he return to his hometown to visit his brother, and the Son of Heaven readily agreed.
Therefore, on the third day of the first month of March, Xie Shen took his wife Xu Qianqian and eldest son Xie Xu from Zhangjiawan Wharf and returned to Yuyao by boat.
The construction of the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal runs through the north and south, which greatly reduces the time taken from Beijing to Jiangnan.
The most important thing is that the walker no longer has to endure the bumps of the land route, but only needs to take a boat to drink and write poetry and music.
Fireworks go down to Jiangnan in March, and for tourists, Jiangnan in March is beautiful.
Boating on the West Lake, the graceful singer sings the lotus picking song and looks at you across the boat. It couldn't be more wonderful.
But for Xie Shen, the trip was not so poetic. My brother's condition is not optimistic, and if he can't get good treatment, the consequences will be unimaginable.
It took Xie Shen a lot of effort to convince Li Yanwen to go with him.
My Lady's condition has been controlled, as long as she takes the medicine every day according to the prescription. As for the eldest brother's condition, there is no room for delay.
Li Yanwen is a healer, but he also has his own value criteria.
When it comes to treating patients, he treats them equally.
Going to Yuyao with Xie Shen to treat Xie Shen's brother meant that there would be many patients in Jingshi who would lose the opportunity to be diagnosed and treated.
It's hard to say whether this decision is right or wrong, but after all, Xie Shen asked for help first, and it was not the doctor's work to refuse to go for treatment even though he knew that a patient was suffering from the disease.
"Lord Xiao Xie, this luggage has something to say first, after treating Brother Ling, no matter whether Brother Ling is cured or not, Li will return to Beijing within a month."
In the cabin, Li Yanwen looked at the river view outside the window and said lightly.
"Divine Doctor Li, I promise you."
Xie Shen took a sip of wine and said in a harmonious voice: "With Doctor Li's medical skills, the eldest brother will definitely be able to recover." ”
If it had been a few months ago, Xie Shen would not have dared to say this. But My Auntie's tuberculosis was almost cured by Li Yanwen in just a few months, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he is Hua Tuo alive.
