Chapter 183: The Strongest Impeachment
Zhu Youcheng looked around the capital, but there was no trace of Qin Ke, and guessed that he might go to Jingxi Huangzhuang again.
It's strange to say, for some reason, Qin Ke has been holding back his strength to renovate the Imperial Village. Zhu Youcheng is a little strange, Jingxi Huangzhuang is just a relatively large landlord's manor, what is there to repair. However, Qin Ke repeatedly mentioned yƬ, and also threatened to resign, Zhu Youcheng had no choice but to agree, and after the completion of the key building, the task of renovating the Jingxi Huangzhuang was handed over to him.
It's a pity that Qin Ke's dream has been repeatedly postponed. In the third year of the Apocalypse, the Daming Administrative College and the Daming Military Academy were built; Subsequently, the West Town Fusi was expanded to build new military camps and training grounds; Then, the Emperor of the Apocalypse issued an edict to build the Xinwang Mansion, and this task also fell to Qin Ke. It was not until a month before the expedition, that is, in August of the fifth year of the Apocalypse, that there was no time.
Since then, Qin Ke can often be seen in the fields of Jingxi Huangzhuang. He carried a wooden board with a piece of paper between it, and two subordinates with measuring tools. When his subordinates measured it, Qin Ke took a note, and from time to time he stopped to write and paint, like an artist in later generations. Zhu Youcheng doesn't care about him, everyone has their own dreams, and it is a happy thing to be able to realize their dreams. Pushing the boat and helping others achieve their dreams, why wouldn't he do it? Anyway, Zhu Youcheng doesn't expect Huangzhuang to make money, as long as he can cultivate seeds with high yields and resistance to drought, and by the way, he can plant some out-of-season vegetables to make tooth sacrifices to his relatives and friends. Even if Qin Ke built the Huangzhuang like a haunted house, Zhu Youcheng also recognized it. However, Qin Ke doesn't have such a bad taste.
Zhu Youcheng really found Qin Ke in Huangzhuang, and he was directing craftsmen to dig the foundation. Seeing Zhu Youcheng, he greeted him with a smile and said, "Lord Zhu, the Xiaguan's level Huangzhuang has been designed. Construction is currently underway, and the prototype will be built next spring, so please enjoy the impregnable Imperial Village. ā
When Zhu Youcheng heard the words "indestructible", his heart moved, and he asked directly: "Qin Baihu, there is a watchtower in Nanpi County, Cangzhou......"
didn't wait for Zhu Youcheng to finish speaking. Qin Ke said triumphantly: "Lord Zhu has seen Qin's works when he was young this time?" Do you admire the design of that watchtower? ā
Then Qin Ke introduced his proud work. It turned out that when Qin Ke was fifteen years old, he traveled to Cangzhou, lost his travel expenses, fell seriously ill, and fainted at the edge of a small village in Nanpi County. Fortunately, a landlord in the village nicknamed Liu Dashan gave medicine to get out of the predicament. Qin Ke noticed that there were traces of heavy objects hitting the door wall of Liu Yuanwai's house. After inquiry, I learned that because his family was rich, he attracted the attention of bandits and water thieves who had been entrenched, and often came to harass him. He invited countless family members, and he barely kept his peace. Qin Ke designed a watchtower for them, built with strips of stone, glued with egg whites, and glutinous rice to build a solid exterior wall, and left many shooting holes in the wall. It is easy for the family to defend. Because the bow and crossbow were controlled ordnance, the landlord could not buy them. Qin Ke asked them to prepare a lot of stones by the shooting hole, and once the thieves dared to besiege the city, they would throw stones to hit the thieves. The watchtower designed by Qin Ke has a large interior space that can hoard food for 500 people for a year. In the center of the watchtower is a vacant lot, topped with fertile soil, where sparse vegetables can be grown. Raising poultry and livestock is not a problem for a year or two. After the watchtower was completed, Qin Ke looked at it more and more proudly, so he secretly left his name in the corner of the watchtower.
"How? Did Liu Yuanwai treat you well? The old man is the most hospitable, and knows that you have gone to quell the rebellion. I will be happy to entertain you. Qin Ke still remembers Liu Yuanwai's kindness.
Zhu Youcheng sighed and told the situation in the watchtower. He did not interrogate the captives, but he did not touch the mud to control the tower, and the fate of the original owner of the house was not known.
Qin Ke's eyes flashed with tears, and he said, "Unexpectedly, the watchtower I built for the old man has become the source of trouble. Lord Zhu, these traitors are really too hateful, and you have to wipe them out in a few days, otherwise you will harm more good people. ā
While the two were talking, a brocade guard came to Zhu Youcheng's side and reported: "Lord Zhu, there is an adult who asks to see him at the Fusi Yamen in Xizhen. ā
Because Zhu Youcheng has too many positions, he often wanders around various yamen. Since that person came here to ask for a meeting, he must have not found himself in the capital, and he chased him all the way, it seems that there must be something urgent.
Zhu Youcheng instructed Qin Ke a few more words, then got on the horse and returned to the Fusi Yamen in Xizhen.
Waiting for Zhu Youcheng in the Yamen of Fusi in Xizhen was Ruan Dacheng, who had completely fallen to the eunuch party, unlike the two ends of the rat in the original history, and as a result, he was both ostracized by the Donglin party and not tolerated by the eunuch party.
The two exchanged a few words, and Ruan Dacheng said: "Thanks to Lord Zhu's reminder, Lord Changgong is now the right deputy of the Imperial Palace, and the impeachment chapter of the Imperial History has been handed over to the imperial court by me." Today, I accidentally saw several letters of impeachment against you, Master Zhu. ā
Zhu Youcheng didn't care, and said: "No one says anything behind anyone, and no one says anything in front of anyone." The imperial history of the Ming Dynasty likes to impeach officials, and even the emperor dares to impeach. Since I was born in the Ming officialdom, I have long been ready to be impeached. ā
Ruan Dacheng shook his head and said, "Among the people who impeached you this time, there are two very special ......."
"What's so special, aren't they all imperial histories?"
"Their official position is indeed the imperial history, but they also have another identity, that is, the adult's ...... Student. ā
Zhu Youcheng suddenly changed color and was impeached by the students, which is really a very shameless thing. Fortunately, in the history of the Ming Dynasty, he was not the first person to be impeached by students, but the second. The first unlucky guy was Zhang Juzheng, the minister of power in the Ming Dynasty, who was impeached by the students for the love case. At that time, Zhang Juzheng's father passed away, and according to the system, he should go home to keep filial piety for three years, but the young Wanli Emperor couldn't do without Teacher Zhang, and issued an order to win love, that is, not to let him go home to keep filial piety. It stands to reason that since the emperor has issued an order to seize affection, the minister should have nothing to say. But Zhang Juzheng's reform touched the interests of too many people, and hundreds of officials attacked him, and finally even Zhang Juzheng's students asked the emperor to drive him back to his hometown to guard filial piety.
Ming officialdom is the most important relationship. The intricate network of relationships is not only the capital for officials to save their lives, but also the reliance on officials to rise to the top. If it is not for public outrage, students generally do not dare to impeach teachers. Because once this table is uploaded to the heavens, the student is not only completely cut off from the teacher. And it broke the normalcy of Daming officialdom, and it will not tolerate Daming officialdom.
For the teacher, the impeachment from the students not only disgraced himself, but also meant that he was opposed to most people in the court.
Zhu Youcheng steadied his feelings and asked, "Who is impeaching me?" What is the content? ā
Ruan Dacheng took out two copies of the cantata. Hand it to Zhu Youcheng.
It turned out that the two people who impeached Zhu Youcheng were Jinshi of the Guihai Branch, and there was originally no teacher-student relationship with Zhu Youcheng. However, in the third year of the Apocalypse, the emperor decreed that officials must study at the Daming Administrative Academy or the Daming Military Academy before taking office, and obtain a graduation certificate before they can become officials, so they became Zhu Youcheng's disciples. Originally, these jinshi were a little unconvinced by Zhu Youcheng, but after reading the textbooks, they realized that there are really geniuses in the world.
Their impeachment is related to the victory in Cangzhou. First, questioning. Because it is written in the report that in the siege of Cangzhou, 2,000 Jinyi guards, plus the tired division of the Cangzhou guards, resolved the battle in only half a day, killing 15,775 thieves and capturing 19,349 enemies, adding up to the two. 35,124 enemies were killed. This is so suspicious that it is a thief with a weapon in his hand. Even if you put 35,000 pigs, you can't catch them in half a day. The second is anger, the Ming Dynasty has a tradition of not killing prisoners, but in Wuzhuangzi Village, north of Cangzhou Prefecture, 431 corpses of prisoners appeared at once. Killing prisoners will damage the good reputation of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Youcheng was tyrannical at a young age, and this is worth it.
Zhu You said sincerely. The impeachment from the students, but the most lethal impeachment of the Ming Dynasty today. However, these two points are not enough for students to turn their faces against themselves, is there some black hand behind them?
"Lord Ruan, what do you think about the impeachment of this official by the students of this official?"
"Master Zhu, according to my analysis. In fact, the root cause of the hundred officials attacking the adults for lying about their achievements and killing the prisoners is not whether the adults have done those things, but for other reasons. ā
"My lord, yesterday you took the emperor's daughter to the palace, although you were ordered by the emperor, but it was too arrogant and eye-catching. In addition, yesterday's violent beating of the imperial historian was even more wrong. Although the adults were clever and forcibly defended, the anger in the hearts of the hundred officials was already born. In addition, yesterday, the imperial history Sun Zhiqi was detained by the East Factory, and it is a taboo in the officialdom to suppress speech with the power of the East Factory. As soon as these three things came out, the adults became the public enemies of officialdom, but you, as the director of the two courts and in charge of education, were not manipulated by others, so you had to make a fuss with the impeachment note sent by Cangzhou. ā
Zhu Youcheng suddenly realized, and then he understood why he returned with the momentum of Cangzhou's victory, but there were no flowers and applause to greet him, but many people said irresponsible things to themselves. However, he has no regrets about what he did yesterday, one is a relative, the other is a traitor, if he is allowed to do it again, he will still be the same as yesterday.
Ruan Dacheng asked: "Lord Zhu, although I am the right deputy capital imperial history, it is not easy to deduct the chapter. Telling you the contents of the music in advance is already a big risk, and it is better to plan ahead so that you don't get caught off guard. ā
Zhu Youcheng nodded and said, "Lord Ruan's heart, Zhu will be engraved in his heart, please rest assured." ā
Ruan Dacheng said in his heart, Lord Zhu remembers that there is a fart, what I want is for Grandpa Wei to remember. Zhu Youcheng saw the look on his face and said, "Lord Ruan, don't forget that I am a scholar of Longtu Pavilion, and you won't be unfamiliar with what the position of a scholar is." ā
Ruan Dacheng's expression was straight, he had participated in the original court meeting, if it wasn't for Zhu Youcheng taking the initiative to back down, he would now be an old cabinet member. But in the matter of scholars, the Emperor of the Apocalypse is strong against public opinion and forcibly passes, and the Ming Dynasty knows that in time, Zhu Youcheng must be a generation of auxiliaries.
Ruan Dacheng's heart sank, and he hurriedly said: "Xiaguan understands." ā
Ruan Dacheng is a civil official of the third grade, and although Zhu Youcheng has many official positions, his highest civil position is from the two courts of the fourth grade, and the military position is only from the fourth grade of the brocade clothes Weixi Zhenfu Si Fu envoy, if you talk about the grade, Zhu Youcheng should call himself a subordinate official to Ruan Dacheng. And Ruan Dacheng claimed to be a subordinate official, obviously showing his attitude, he had officially taken refuge in Zhu Youcheng. (To be continued!)
