Chapter 515: Attacking in groups
Zhou Tingru, as the first assistant of a dynasty, is moody and angry on weekdays, but today he was angry, and he was angry in front of his colleagues in Wenyuan Pavilion.
"Now that the imperial court has finally had a new atmosphere, can't you save your worries, Lord Chen? Take back the military power of the loyal and brave marquis, how do you want to take back the military power? Are you stupid to study at the Hallym Academy? ”
Zhou Tingru scolded unceremoniously, and pointed at Chen Yan's nose and scolded, and Chen Yan is not a good-natured lord, although you are the first assistant of the cabinet, but buddy, I am also a cabinet scholar, in addition to being a little lower than you, Lao Tzu is also a first-class member, why should you be angry.
Thinking of this, Chen Yan stretched out his hand and slapped Zhou Tingru's hand and sneered: "Lord Zhou, what the lower official said is out of public intentions, if there is anything wrong with what you say, you can point it out, and the lower official will definitely apologize to you!" ”
"You...... You ......"
Chen Yan didn't know that his shot not only slapped Zhou Tingru's hand, but also shot his own future.
Zhou Tingru, who was filmed, calmed down and didn't pay attention to Chen Yan anymore, he quickly turned around and returned to his office to start working, his expression was so indifferent, as if what happened just now did not happen. Fan Fucui and Xue Guoguan glanced at each other and returned to their place to sit down, they were naturally not stupid enough to think that Zhou Tingru would be generous enough to forget about this matter, on the contrary, they knew very well that this was the prelude to the storm, and no one could save that self-righteous guy this time.
The day after the incident, Yue Yang submitted his resignation to Chongzhen in front of the Manchu civil and military forces in the court, and proposed to Chongzhen to resign from the post of the head of the new army in the capital, which shook the civil and military of the Manchu Dynasty on the spot. Chongzhen's face, which was originally calm, immediately changed, and he immediately said to Yue Yang with a displeased expression, "Yue Aiqing, do you know what you're doing?" ”。
"The minister naturally knows!" Yue Yang said calmly: "Your Majesty was wrongly loved, summoned the minister to Beijing and entrusted him with a heavy task, these days the minister has been trembling like walking on thin ice for fear of betraying the emperor's trust, but now there are rumors in the court, the so-called three people become tigers, in the eyes of many people, the minister has been no different from the former Wang Mang, if the minister does not resign, I am afraid that those people's saliva can drown the minister." For the sake of His Majesty, for the sake of the Ming Dynasty, the ministers had to resign. ”
After Yue Yang's words were finished, the surrounding people secretly rolled their eyes. Can this guy be a little more? When have you ever cared about someone else's impeachment? The impeachment of you over the years can fill a room, when have you ever cared? Now run out and pretend to be honest, when all of us are blind?
Lu Xiangsheng, the current secretary of the Ministry of War, was the first to stand up and reproach: "Lord Yue, Your Majesty handed over the new army to you, what kind of trust is that, how can you ignore Your Majesty and the Ming Dynasty because of one or two slanderous words from others, and the second is not the way to be a minister!" ”
Chongzhen also persuaded: "Yes, Yue Aiqing, now the training of the new army is just on the right track. How can you pick on the new army halfway, and let me hand over the new army to someone after you leave? ”
Yue Yang rolled his eyes: "Didn't Elder Chen Ge say that you can hand over the new army to the Ministry of War, and let the Ministry of War send people to train the troops." ”
"You ......"
Chongzhen was so angry that he almost slammed the table. If those stupid people in the military department have this ability, Lao Tzu will still need to transfer you from Fujian all the way.
However, Chongzhen also knew that his hairy son-in-law was probably really angry today, and he was also dissatisfied with his ambiguous attitude yesterday, otherwise he would not have come to the army in front of the Manchu Dynasty civil and military. Now I don't give him an explanation today. I'm afraid this kid will really pick on him, and Chongzhen was a little embarrassed for a while.
The current Chongzhen is scratching his head, and Yue Yang's meaning is very clear. must give him an explanation, and this explanation must be sincere, according to Yue Yang's current powerful position, it is natural that he can't just deal with a few inconsequential small roles to send him, this person must have an identity and status, and he must be the behind-the-scenes instigator to deal with Yue Yang, so this person's name will be revealed.
Chongzhen looked at Chen Yan, who was standing below with an ugly face, and took a deep breath, it seems that his hairy-footed son-in-law is determined to deal with this guy today, if he doesn't give him a satisfactory answer, this guy really dares to pick a son and leave, but how can he speak his mouth, Chongzhen was a little embarrassed for a while.
However, Chongzhen's embarrassment did not last too long, don't forget that he is the emperor, no matter what he does, some of them are served by the younger brother, and there are many people who rush to pat him on the back in the Manchu Dynasty, and soon a middle-aged man in a cyan official uniform stood up and said loudly, "The minister Liuke will see Your Majesty Wang Lang in the matter, and the minister wants to impeach a person!" ”
"Well...... Chongzhen was slightly stunned, and then asked, "Who does Aiqing want to impeach?" ”
"The minister wants to impeach the cabinet scholar Chen Yan!"
"Huh......" As soon as Wang Lang stood up like this, many people were stunned, this guy's reaction was too fast, right?
I saw Wang Lang pointing to Chen Yan who was standing in front of him while saying loudly: "There are two charges against Chen Yan for the impeachment of Chen Yan: one is to connive at his family to buy and sell in Yangzhou to make crazy money, originally last year Chen Yan's family only had more than 5,000 acres of fertile land, but since he served as a cabinet scholar, he has accumulated more than 200,000 mu of fertile land and two million silver in just two years, and last month his second son Chen Youdao instigated domestic slaves to beat more than a dozen good people to death in Yangzhou.
Second: Chen Yan is a person with great ambition and talent, and since he entered the cabinet, he has not been able to share the worries of his father and cannot do things for the imperial court, and he has made frequent mistakes when he runs errands during the period. Therefore, the minister implored the emperor to remove Chen Yan from his post and investigate and deal with it! ”
As soon as Wang Lang's words fell, Ma Shiying, who was Yueyang's new junior brother, also stood up and stabbed Chen Yan in time: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that Lord Wang's words are very true. However, Chen Yan is a great talent or promoted him, these days he for his own selfish interests even falsely accused the ministers of the court, Zhongyong Marquis just pacified Fujian Zheng Zhilong and entered Beijing non-stop, and then trained a new army for the imperial court, who knows the hardships during the period. But Chen Yan actually framed the Marquis of Zhongyong with ill intentions, so who would dare to be loyal to the country in the future, and who would dare to serve the emperor? If I don't drive this person out of the court, I will be a country and a country! ”
"Hiss......"
Hearing this, many people gasped, and Ma Shiying's knife was too hard. Wang Lang just wanted to drive Chen Yan back to his hometown to eat himself, but this Ma Shiying wanted to play Chen Yan to death directly. However, everyone then also expressed their understanding, as Yueyang's newly accepted little brother, if someone wants to deal with his own boss, he naturally has to jump out, after all, to be a little brother is to have the consciousness of being a little brother.
However, Chen Yan is not a vegetarian, he has been a cabinet scholar for more than a year, and he naturally has a group of horses under his hands. Without him to speak, several imperial historians and officials jumped out to fight with Ma Shiying and Wang Lang, and the two sides quarreled fiercely.
In the end, the two sides were tired of arguing, and everyone looked at Chongzhen, waiting for the final verdict of the big boss.
Chongzhen didn't make a decision immediately, but looked at Zhou Tingru: "Zhou Aiqing, you are the first assistant of the court." Chen Yan is a cabinet scholar, do you think the words of Ma Shiying and Wang Lang are reasonable? ”
Zhou Tingru pondered for a moment before smiling and said: "Your Majesty, Lord Chen once served as His Majesty's attendant and lectured in the Hanlin Academy for more than ten years. However, when it comes to the ability to do things, it is very lacking, and during the period of working with the minister, Lord Chen's talent seems to be a little insufficient, so the minister thinks that it is not appropriate to put Lord Chen in the position of a cabinet scholar. As for Lord Chen's framing of important ministers in the court, the minister has also heard a little, and the minister thinks that it is a bit excessive, if you pick up the talent of the army, looking at my Ming Dynasty, except for the loyal and brave marquis, who else can pick up this burden, it is also quite reasonable for Lord Emma's words. ”
Speaking of this, Zhou Tingru also turned back to Xue Guoguan and Fan Fucui behind him and smiled: "Lord Xue, Lord Fan, what do you think? ”
Xue Guoguan and Fan Fucui glanced at each other and said in unison: "The ministers seconded Lord Zhou's words!" ”
"It's over!"
Things have developed to this point, even a fool knows that Chen Yan's general trend has gone, and even the three scholars, including the first assistant of the cabinet, are busy and start to make up for the knife, can you still stay in the cabinet?
Even Chongzhen is questioning how he fell in love with Chen Yan in the first place, even if he has no vision, even his ability to do things is so unreliable, and now even several colleagues who work together are crowding him out, and it is strange that he has failed to be a man to this extent.
Chongzhen looked at Chen Yan, who was standing on the spot, and sighed in his heart, and said in a deep voice: "Chen Yan, what else do you have to say?" ”
Although Chen Yan's political talent is not high, he is not stupid, he also knows that what is now in front of him can only bow his head and confess his guilt, if he continues to resist stubbornly, what awaits him will be a more severe punishment, he lowered his head and said in a low voice: "Minister...... I have nothing to say, and I am willing to be disposed of by Your Majesty. ”
"Hmmm......"
Seeing that Chen Yan had bowed his head and admitted defeat, Chongzhen nodded, cleared his throat and said loudly: "Since this is the case, I can't show favoritism, Chen Yan listens to the order!" ”
"Chen Yan, a cabinet university scholar, is not talented enough to serve in the cabinet, and he is jealous of being able to slander the important ministers of the DPRK, so Chen Yan is hereby dismissed from his position as a cabinet university non-commissioned officer, dismissed and returned home...... Chin this! ”
As Chongzhen's words fell, Chen Yan's fate officially came to an end...... (To be continued......)
