Chongzhen looked at the music in front of him, shook his head again and again, and his face was unhappy.

It was precisely when Liu Jun was needed to cooperate in launching a fierce offensive in the east, but Liu Jun dug a trench under Gaizhou City, and dug circle after circle, digging six moats around the city in half a month.

He still believed too much in Liu Jun, and Fan Zhi, the governor of Liaodong, said that Liu Jun was very domineering in Liaodong, and when the military council was held, he actually excluded the governor, governor, governor, and director of Liaodong.

What does Liu Jun want to do?

To control martial arts with literature, that is the ancestral system. Using ministers to supervise the army, that was the means of controlling the army of successive emperors, but now Liu Jun has regarded the army as a private person, and he can set aside the ministers sent by the emperor such as the governor and governor, and the supervision of the army and the imperial history of the inspectors, which is not only a matter of dominance.

Liu Jun has led the Chu army for less than three years, and it has not been a long time, and he is already a word in the army. If it takes a long time, then there will be no one to take care of it.

Chongzhen didn't think that Liu Jun would have any dissenting intentions at the moment, he still believed in Liu Jun's loyalty. But some openings can't be opened, and once they are opened, they can't be blocked if they want to be blocked in the future. Ambition is also a little bit up, not now, does not mean that there will be no in the future. Liu Jun is only in his early twenties, and he is less than ten years older than the crown prince. If you blindly indulge, sooner or later, things will be out of control.

When the emperor is in power, he is deeply vigilant about military power. They will never be gullible to delegate military power, and military generals will lead the troops, but they will have to send another governor to supervise and supervise the military history with patrols and supervisors, and they will also send ministers to supervise the army, and they will be insured at all levels.

At the same time, the imperial court also controlled the supply of food and salaries for the army, stuck in the throat of the army.

But now Liu Jun's Chu army, the governors and governors can't intervene in the imperial history, and the food and salary don't rely on the imperial court. It is also in the overseas land of Liaodong, which is really high and far away from the emperor.

In the Qianqing Palace, there are six scholars in the cabinet, six Shangshu plus the general political envoy, the imperial history, the Dali Temple, the Dajiuqing, and the other six servants. The capital of the six departments was also present in the matter, in addition, the eunuch Wang Chengen, the eunuch who held the seal, and the Wang Zhixin of the commander of the East Factory, and the four eunuchs of the celebrant also sat on one side.

The people sitting in the hall are all important ministers and important members of the court, and it can be said that the major decisions of the court are basically from the hands of these people. The emperor summoned so many dignitaries to discuss important matters.

Zhou Yanru glanced at the second assistant Wu Fu beside him. I guessed in my heart that the focus of today's discussion must be related to Liu Jun.

Wu Changshi had already met with the Jiangbei Party, and after a trial period, the two sides finally held a round of secret negotiations, and finally reached a consensus on the issue of Liu Jun.

Many of the tactics pursued by Liu Jun's Chu Party greatly affected the interests of the gentry, officials, and landlords, especially their policies of customs, commercial taxes, and the rectification of the guards and the clearing of the tuntian. However, these things have been strongly supported by the emperor, and they cannot be put on the table for the time being. They are now going to borrow Liu Jun's negative performance in Gaizhou to attack Liu Jun.

Liu Jun made a big mistake.

He went so far as to hide a large number of new artillery pieces from the emperor and the imperial court. It's a little too greedy. If you hide these cannons, forget it, and you can trade horses with Wu Sangui in private, but you shouldn't have it, you shouldn't have set up cannons to attack Gaizhou City. The new artillery was fierce and easily blasted through the city wall, but Liu Jun did not attack and fight. This exposed that Liu Jun had many new cannons, and secondly, it exposed Liu Jun's passive war avoidance.

If this happened a month ago, maybe the court would have pinched its nose and admitted it, but it should not have seen it. But at present, in western Liaoning, the imperial army led by Hong Chengchou, Sun Chuanting, and Wu Sangui is at the time of victory. Liu Jun's mistakes under Gaizhou City are a little difficult to accept.

Liu Jun used to sprinkle money in Beijing, the Metropolitan Procuratorate and the Six Departments, the Cabinet and the Six Ministries, all of which took Liu Jun's silver. Those silvers have indeed made Liu Jun not be impeached by any trouble.

But this time it was different, with the promotion of Zhou Yanru and Wu Fu's two cabinet assistants for the first time, the officials of Kedao raised a group to impeach Liu Jun, and there were 58 people in the six departments, more than 100 people in the imperial history, and nearly half of the officials of Kedao were impeached.

Many bullets impeached Liu Jun for passively avoiding war, and many of them were even more fiercely worded, impeaching Liu Jun for supporting the army and self-respect, and some people impeached him for raising thieves for self-respect, and even more domineering and many other crimes.

So many imperial histories impeached one person together, and he is still a military general, which is also a rare time in recent years. And in the DPRK and China, every time the officials who are impeached by the officials of the Ministry of Science and Technology will never end well. Even in many cases, such impeachment is often the prelude to a party and a major purge.

Under normal circumstances, being impeached by so many officials, even a civil servant like a local governor would have to take the blame and resign. And a military general like Liu Jun has to return to Beijing immediately to be investigated.

Although the responsibilities of the officials of the department are different, they are all officials, they have the right to impeach, they are targeted by them, and they have to shed their skin if they don't die, not to mention that they are still impeached by so many officials.

Especially those who are given to the six subjects, they are the same as those local patrols, low quality but weight. The Ming Dynasty is not only able to inspect the mistakes of the six departments and hundreds of officials, but also act as a participant in the examination at all levels, and the activities that only the officials of the ministries and halls can participate in are also participated in by these officials who only have seven grades, which shows the weight of their powers.

Moreover, these officials are all selected with prestige but relatively shallow qualifications, and they use their youthful momentum.

Among the inspectors of the Imperial History and the Six Departments of the Imperial Procuratorate, these are the most ideal positions for the young scholars of the Ming Dynasty. With the sesame sketches of the seven products, it is allowed to participate in important meetings that can only be attended by officials such as court meetings and court pushes. The patrol of the seven products can be on an equal footing with the governor and governor.

As soon as he was appointed as a science and technology official, he entered the fast lane of promotion. If you can participate in a few high-ranking officials and ministers during your tenure, you will be able to make a name for yourself all over the world, and with a reputation, you will be able to quickly become a local prefect or even a minister in the future, and it will also be an important qualification to be promoted to the cabinet in the future.

Liu Jun was originally a fairly suitable target for impeachment, all kinds of suitable for impeachment, extremely fast ascension, feudal marquis and duke, and even military attaché with the rank of ministry and court, military general as commander, commander of several towns and horses, etc., there are too many places that can be impeached.

But all the officials who had impeached Liu Jun returned home, and their impeachment recitals were all lost in the sea without exception, and they were left behind. Later, Liu Jun's teacher entered the cabinet as the first assistant and the second assistant, and Liu Jun was accepted by the emperor as a righteous son, and many officials retreated. Later, Liu Jun took out a large amount of silver and scattered it, and after receiving the silver, everyone stopped knocking with Liu Jun.

This time, however, there was a cabinet for the first time.

In particular, after many speech officials found out that the emperor actually forwarded a letter of impeachment of Liu Jun by Wu Changshi to the cabinet and the officials of the six ministries to read, the speech officials became excited.

The so-called wind and news of the official, what he is best at is to observe the style.

The emperor's move, in the eyes of these smart young officials, is a change in the direction of the wind.

When the wind changes, you have to change the rudder.

Although they all took Liu Jun's silver, it did not prevent them from playing the impeachment of Liu Jun, and each was more fierce than the other.

Liu Zongzhou, the imperial historian of the imperial history, is the top boss of the imperial historians, in charge of the Imperial Procuratorate, and is a well-known member of the Donglin Party. In his early years, he became a candidate for a cabinet scholar several times, but he was not promoted to the cabinet through the court, and he was demoted and dismissed several times because of his confrontation with the emperor.

He is now in charge of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, in fact, he was reused by Mei Zhihuan and Li Changgeng when they were in charge of the cabinet. But now, Liu Zongzhou not only did not control this impeachment at all, but pushed the boat along the river, and even fanned the flames, which helped strengthen this round of impeachment.

Liu Zongzhou was known as the last Confucian master of the Ming Dynasty, and the Qishan School he founded had a huge influence, especially in Confucianism.

Liu Zongzhou's temper is very stubborn, and he can't pull back the nine cows in the direction he has identified, and even the emperor dares to go against him and never back down. He also saw the affairs of the government and state more clearly, and said that today's affairs are getting worse, not to mention that they are in the middle and abroad, and they are all in urgent need of help to slow down the break. The situation is far from extreme, especially when there is nothing to do, and it has been a long time since the disadvantages of the mushrooms have been repeated. Today, one or two righteous people are in trouble, and the troubles of the place will not collapse one day. The enemy is in danger, the parties are reckless and militaristic, no move is satisfactory, I am afraid that there will be changes overnight, and our generation of scholars and doctors do not know where to die.

He believes that the state affairs have become the way they are now, and our party is guilty of guilt, and he admits that the Donglin Party is also responsible, and he has also had a deep reflection on the "righteous people" and "gentlemen", saying that many Donglin Party members often act for the sake of fame and cannot really serve the country. And said that if the world collapses, there will be no place to die. He once said bitterly to his disciples that the sin of the Soyunwu Party is above the Song people, and it is not false.

Liu Zongzhou is a master of Confucianism, a member of the Donglin Party, and a person who considers himself a decent gentleman. He has a clear understanding of Donglin. He originally supported Mei Zhihuan and Li Changgeng, but now he supports Wu Fu, and on the issue of Liu Jun, he is firmly in favor of not indulging Liu Jun. It is believed that this is an extremely dangerous sign, and if it is said that the party is fighting for the country, then once the military generals are allowed to fully control the army, it will be even more dangerous.

This is entirely out of concern about the long-term situation in the DPRK, not out of the party's differences.

But with the support of this imperial historian, the attacks of the officials became more and more fierce.

The palace of monarchs and ministers, from the emperor to the seven-rank science and technology officials, all felt that the current situation outside the customs was very good, and it was time to contain Liu Jun.

The officials in the palace were all waiting for the emperor's opening.

Chongzhen sat there, hesitated for a long time, and finally said slowly. "Recently, Kedao has been impeached one after another, and Zhu Ciye, the governor of Liaodong, has passively avoided the war, I don't know what the ministers have to say?" (To be continued.) )
