Zhao Zhenji looked down on Zhang Juzheng, it was a well-known thing, the old master almost wanted to grab Zhang Juzheng and ask loudly, do you have a conscience? Without Xu Ge Lao's cultivation, how could you be today, ungrateful, and what face would you have left in the court?

Lao Zhao wanted to have a seizure and scolded him happily, but he looked at Tang Yi who was calm and calm, he still couldn't help it, Tang Yi emphasized the principle of employing people many times in the cabinet meeting, first in talent, second in law, and emphasis on virtue.

What does that mean?

It is good to have both ability and political integrity, but morality is very troublesome, no matter how you say it, take Li Chunfang, who has done nothing, for example, some people praise him for his humble virtue and ancient benevolent style.

As a member of the imperial court, the first responsibility is to be worthy of his position, to have the ability to carry the burden on his shoulders, and secondly, to abide by the rules, what are the rules? It is the "Da Ming Law", that is, the rules and regulations of the cabinet, if these two are met, you can become a qualified good official.

As for moral character, it is not allowed to speak of it unless it is seriously flawed.

Tang Yi gave Kedao the power to investigate, that is, to ask them to speak with facts, show real evidence, and not allow moral attacks and chase after the wind.

After more than a year, Tang Yi's prestige has been established, and even Zhao Zhenji can't just break the rules.

His face was solemn, "Old Tang Ge, the old man didn't speak for Xu Ge Lao because of personal feelings, it's really Hai Rui who has done a little too much in the southeast." ”

Tang Yi was curious: "How do you say it?" ”

"That's right, after he became the governor, he immediately asked the people to make a report, and as a result, hundreds of people went to Hai Rui every day to deliver the complaint, and many of them saw the hunting heart. Hai Jui is an upright person, and the old man naturally knows it, but he hates the rich and blindly favors the poor when judging the case, and as a result, some people fabricate evidence, gather a group of people, and frame the rich family, dreaming of getting rich overnight. It makes the people of the southeast panic, and chaos is frequent, Su Song is a wealthy land, and if it goes on like this, won't it be a big mess in the world? ”

After Tang Yi listened, he was noncommittal, he looked at Zhang Juzheng again.

"Taiyue, how did you get the news?"

Zhang Juzheng straightened his waist and said, "Yuanfu, I also heard some rumors, but I thought that it was precisely because of this that we should fully support Hai Rui and let him push down government affairs." ”

Taking a deep breath, Zhang Juzheng said slowly: "For generations, the government has not gone to the countryside, and the responsibility of governing the people has fallen into the hands of the gentry, especially in our dynasty, and even the tax revenue has been grabbed by the gentry. Whenever the imperial court carried out administrative affairs and slightly damaged their interests, they would obstruct it, hire helpers, and secretly make black hands to stir up local chaos, and then blame the officials for this, and mobilize the imperial historians and scholars to discuss and bring down the court officials. There are countless such tragic examples, when the governor of Fujian and Zhejiang, Zhu Kun, fought against the Japanese with all his might, and made outstanding achievements, but he was brought down by such means, so that the southeast was in turmoil, and the Japanese were rampant for more than ten years, and the lesson was not not painful! ”

"Clearing the acres of land and sorting out taxes is a common decision of the cabinet, Hai Jui shoulders the mission, is not afraid of difficulties, and completes the meaning of the cabinet, if only because of the local rebound, Hai Jui is replaced, where is the prestige of the cabinet? Nowadays, many yamen, the official who came out of the imperial examination on the right way, are often not valued, and even the yang is contrary to the yin, and is regarded as the memorial arch decoration, because they will be transferred away within a few years, and the soldiers of the iron battalion are flowing water, so when they encounter things, the people are more willing to ask for help from the officials, relying on the gentry clan, and among these people, the good and the bad are uneven, and the people are innumerable. As the cabinet chief, the servants think that the officials are our own people, they have made mistakes, of course, they must be severely punished, they are not wrong, just because they are calm, they replaced the officials, who can still do things for the court in the future, who can still shoulder the heavy responsibility of the new policy? ”

Zhang Juzheng's voice was not high, extremely magnetic, and even Zhao Zhenji fell into deep thought when he heard the end. He finally realized that he might have underestimated this junior.

In the consciousness of many people, when officials are mentioned, they are afraid that they will have great power in their hands, so they will kill the people.

But don't forget that the strong dragon does not suppress the head snake, compared to the deep-rooted gentry, there are also generations of Xu officials, the official of the imperial court, except for a few geniuses, most of them have just dropped their books, and they have been sent to the place to serve as Baili Hou.

When it comes to talents, they are all in a weak position, and they have been deceived by others, and they don't know it.

There is a court to deal with above, and there is a group of well-made gentry below, no wonder officials often say that doing more is wrong, doing less is wrong, and not doing is good.

If the cabinet wants to promote the new policy and realize the prosperity of Longqing, can it just point to the seven cabinet elders? It's not that the officials below want to cooperate, and Hai Rui is recognized as the Great Ming Sword, the number one official in the world, if he is replaced, isn't it equivalent to abolishing martial arts?

Old Master Zhao, who was originally aggressive, thought of this, and actually lowered his head, and his courage was a little lacking.

"Even if Hai Rui can't be replaced, but Xu Ge Lao has the hope of the world, can he bear to watch him end up desolate?" Zhao Zhenji stared at Tang Yi, and said in his heart that it was time for you to make a statement, don't want to hide from it.

"Elder Zhao Ge, in fact, if you are worried about Elder Xu Ge, you shouldn't ask me." Tang Yi thought about it and said.

"Who do you ask?"

"You!"

Zhao Zhenji was almost angry and asked me, what can I do? Zhang Juzheng on the side reacted faster, he understood what Tang Yi meant.

"Dazhou Gong, didn't Lord Shoufu allow Kedao to investigate the six departments and thirteen provinces? Why didn't you send the Kedao Yanguan to the southeast and investigate with Hai Rui, if Hai Rui really framed Xu Ge Lao, naturally he didn't say anything. ”

Zhao Zhenji suddenly realized, but no, he couldn't even use the power in his hands. He left in a hurry, and immediately dispatched his right-hand man to Nanzhili to keep an eye on the sea barbarians.

Seeing Zhao Zhenji go away, Zhang Juzheng suddenly sighed faintly, "Lord Yuanfu, I'm afraid that Zhao Zhenji will cheat for personal gain!" ”

Until this moment, Zhang Juzheng couldn't quite understand that the cabinet had stabilized, what was Zhao Zhenji still doing, and did he make it clear that he would add chaos to the new deal?

Tang Yi smiled slightly: "Elder Zhang Ge, you are too worried, Dazhou Gong is a square person, he will know how to measure, there are many affairs at the moment, in addition to Nanzhili, Shandong, Shanxi, Henan, there are a lot of things, I heard that many vassal royal clans have sent their sons to the capital, to find the emperor to cry, you keep an eye on them, don't make any trouble." ”

"Yes."

Zhang Juzheng took the order, Tang Yi smiled at the corner of his mouth, and said in his heart that if Zhao Zhenji was not allowed to make a move, what would the people of the world think? They will only think that it is me Tang Yi who takes revenge on Xu Jie, and only when the old master sends someone to find out can he be convincing.

Brother Gangfeng, it depends on whether your skills can stop the people of Zhao Zhenji's faction.

……

At the time of the exchange of letters and the cabinet battle, Hai Rui had already made a big move in Songjiang and made rapid progress.

He forced the Xu family to hand over Xu Kun and one or two hundred evil slaves, Xu Jie couldn't resist the pressure, so he had to write a letter to Hai Rui, agreeing to hand over the slaves, as for his second son Xu Kun, Xu Jie asked to stay at home, and he disciplined himself.

Hai Rui was noncommittal, Xu Jie thought that the barbarian had flinched, and secretly called for luck!

Who knew that after Hai Rui took away the evil slave, he interrogated him overnight, more than 100 people, few of them were hard-boned, and when they broke through one, the whole line collapsed, and the big guys rushed to confess.

They shook out all the unsightly things that the Xu family had seen over the years.

It's not just as simple as occupying acres of land, there are more than 30 homicide cases alone, most of which involve Xu Jie's two sons, Xu Kun and Xu Ying.

Some people even broke the sensational news, saying that the Xu family colluded with pirates, used pirates to loot villages, and then sent people over to buy people's land and property at a low price......

Pile by pile, piece by piece, Hai Rui immediately published the things that came out of the trial in the newspaper, and the news quickly spread in the southeast, and more and more victims came forward to testify against the Xu family, as well as a large group of literati, went to Songjiang to investigate the situation, wrote articles, and published them everywhere.

The hypocritical face of the Xu family was completely torn off, and the angry people of Songjiang ran to the Xu family's mansion and surrounded their house.

Xu is not allowed to go out, cursing all day long, what rotten eggs, rotten vegetable leaves, greeting the Xu family every day, making the Xu family all disgraced.

Xu Jie couldn't even eat green vegetables for more than ten days, he could only raw bean sprouts, after eating mung beans and soybeans, Xu Ge who ate it smelled the smell of beans, he was disgusted, and he couldn't stop farting.

Rao is the first in the world of Xu Jie's forbearance, and he has been brought to the point where he is now, and it is also called that the sky should not be, and the earth is not spiritual, and the sadness is desolate to the extreme!

"You two brutes, go and surrender!" Xu Jie said bitterly.

When Xu Kun and Xu Ying heard this, their faces turned green.

"Dad, you can't ignore the children, if it is in the hands of the King of Hades, the children will be finished!" The two of them had a handful of snot and tears, not to mention how miserable they were.

Xu Jie looked angry and hateful, angry that the two beasts were not angry, and they did some things that were scattered, Yan Song fell into Yan Shifan's hands, and as a result, he had to follow in Yan Song's footsteps.

What he hates is Tang Yi's ruthlessness and ruthlessness, and what he hates is that Zhao Zhenji is weak and incompetent.

"Alas, you go and surrender first, and within three days, the imperial history of the Metropolitan Procuratorate will arrive, and they will uphold justice." Xu Jie was trapped at home, still with his hands and eyes.

"The Metropolitan Inspectorate, it's just a mere seven-grade imperial history, can they?" Xu Fan asked uneasily.

Xu Jie's old eyes were confused, and he said after a while: "Your father still has some influence in Kedao, plus Shilin Qingyi is on our side, and the sea barbarian is fighting alone, just and easy to break, don't be afraid." ”

After speaking, Xu Jie closed his old eyes and leaned on the recliner and pretended to be dead.

Xu Fan had no choice but to send the two brothers to the official who came.

Two of the three harms of the Xu family were arrested, and for a while Songjiang was a sensation, and Xu Ge didn't know that his three precious sons all had nicknames.

Hai Rui raided overnight, Xu Kun and Xu Ying couldn't stand it, and confessed one after another, a total of more than 20 murder cases, implicated more than 100,000 acres of land, and more than 300 shops and workshops.

Hastily converted, the silver is at least eight million taels.

"Although Fenyi is greedy, it is small compared to Huating!" Hai Rui clenched his fists and gurgled. (To be continued.) )
