Chapter 494: Fighting in a group
Seeing the person who came to stand up so swaggeringly, Yue Yang was a little stunned, with the improvement of strength and official position over the years, ordinary subordinates trembled when they saw him, and few people dared to contradict him, and now he suddenly saw such a guy standing up and raising his eyebrows at him, and he didn't reflect it for a while. [ads: This site has a new URL, shorthand method: strawberry]
After carefully looking at the person who came, this person was about thirty years old, thin, narrow-eyed, wearing a black gauze hat, wearing a seven-grade green robe, and a painted biao on his chest, at this time he was sneering and looking at himself without showing weakness.
Yue Yang stared at Chen Yihang for a long time before he said slowly: "What's your name, is it that you said that Benhou wants to rebel?" I wonder if you have any proof? ”
"Evidence?" Chen Yihang said disdainfully: "You led troops into Beijing without the permission of the cabinet and the Ministry of War, what is this not a rebellion?" Speaking of this, Chen Yihang straightened his chest and said to Yue Yang with disdain: "This official Chen Yihang is the official of the sixth department, what does the Hou Ye want to do with the lower officials?" ”
Yue Yang shook his head and said lightly: "It turned out to be the official in the matter of the six branches, Benhou does not need the consent of the Ministry of War and the cabinet, the whole world is the emperor's, and it is enough to have the emperor's holy decree."
"You...... You are presumptuous! Chen Yihang was so angry that his body trembled, "According to the rules, any transfer of more than 50 officers and soldiers in the Ming Dynasty must have the approval of the cabinet and the Ministry of War, otherwise it will be regarded as complicity, don't you know?" ”
"Rebellion?" Yue Yang was stunned for a moment before he burst out laughing, pointed at Chen Yihang and sneered, "You...... What's your name? Oh...... By the way, Chen Yihang, you said that Benhou was going to rebel, and Benhou led his troops into Beijing by the emperor's holy decree, so the emperor is the mastermind and Benhou is the accomplice? And rebellion is a big crime to punish the nine clans, does Lord Chen want to kill the emperor and the nine clans of his own officials? ”
"You...... You...... When did this official say that the emperor was going to rebel, you had to talk nonsense. At this time, Chen Yihang's body trembled with anger, and he didn't dare to bear this crime. accusing the emperor of rebellion, this has to be a crime that can only be thought up by a brainless person.
"And what do you want to say?" Yue Yang pressed step by step: "Let me ask you, who is this Ming Dynasty in this world?" It's the emperor's. Doesn't the emperor even have the right to issue a holy decree? What kind of intentions do you have, who gave you the courage to even deprive the emperor of the right to decree, could it be that you still want to learn from Cao Cao back then to coerce the Son of Heaven to make the princes fail? ”
Although Yue Yang rarely does this kind of work, he does it. But that doesn't mean he won't. After all, for people who grew up in modern society, buttoning hats is too pediatric.
Seeing that Yue Yang forced Chen Yihang so embarrassed in the Taiji Palace, many civil officials standing next to him frowned secretly. Yue Yang's hat is too big, this is to force people to death, such an act is too bad for the Hou Ye's demeanor.
Unlike the civil officials, Chongzhen, who was sitting on the dragon chair, showed no signs of anger, but looked at what was happening below with interest.
"You...... You are talking nonsense! Chen Yihang pointed at Yue Yang's hand and trembled. Yue Yang's accusations are too big, so big that no one can afford them.
"Am I talking nonsense?" Yue Yang didn't intend to let him go, but continued to mend the knife: "Didn't you say that the emperor can't just give an order?" Didn't you say that the emperor's decree must be approved by the Ministry of War and the cabinet? Ben Hou is strange, when will it be the turn of the cabinet and the military department to be the masters of the country, since only the cabinet and the military department can make an order, what do you want the emperor to do? Just let Master Chen, you pick a cabinet elder from the cabinet to be the emperor, wouldn't this be happy! ”
"Puff ......"
Chen Yihang could no longer support his trembling body, and fell to his knees on the ground, his body trembling like chaff and howling with a cry: "Your Majesty...... Minister...... The minister was wronged...... The minister definitely didn't mean that! ”
Chongzhen snorted lightly, looking at Chen Yihang who was kneeling on the ground, his heart was really indescribably happy. In the past, these speech officials boasted that Qingliu was pointing fingers at him, the emperor, but in order to maintain face, he could not be angry with these speech officials. Because if he moved, a speech official would fly out like a hornet's nest, which would give him a headache, and now that Yue Yang was angry for him, his heart was naturally very comfortable.
It's just that although he was happy in his heart, his face looked ugly, and he was about to speak after coughing lightly, but he saw several more officials standing on the side. A fifty-year-old official said to Yue Yang with a cold expression: "Marquis Yue, is it a bit too much for you to be so aggressive, Lord Chen is also a public heart, do you really want to put him to death if you are so hard-working?" ”
"Exactly. is the so-called forgiving and forgiving, and Lord Chen's words are indeed a bit excessive, but you shouldn't be so aggressive. As soon as he finished speaking, a young speaker next to him picked up again.
Seeing such a situation, everyone Wenchen could see that today these officials were planning to completely get in touch with Yue Yang.
"Hey......
Yue Yang was amused, looking at this group of righteous officials, he felt an inexplicable irony.
The Ming Dynasty was the most liberal speech dynasty in Chinese history. The characteristic is that the system of speech and officials is implemented, and ministers can be allowed to put forward opinions. From national affairs to harem trivialities, as long as you have ideas, you can just say them, and don't be afraid of offending the emperor. Because in the Ming Dynasty, no matter how brutal the monarch was, he didn't want to bear the infamy of "fainting king" and "killing officials", he was really angry, and at most it was just a "court staff" - a hard beating on the butt of the official.
Therefore, the Ming Dynasty is afraid that the official theory is not extreme, and the rhetoric is not exaggerated, and often relies on chasing the wind and catching shadows and gossip, and it is extremely sensational. They are not concerned with whether what they say is true, but whether they can make a name for themselves with their caustic rhetoric.
For such a person, Yue Yang has always hated the most, and it is precisely because of this fear that the world will not be chaotic that the court will be in a miasma.
After all, there is nothing easier in the world than "picking thorns", no matter how perfect people and things can find faults, Chen Guzi's rotten sesame seeds, the affairs of the seven aunts and eight aunts, can always be associated with you. You scolded you when you were in power, and after you were dismissed, you were scolded alive, and you were scolded when you died, as if you didn't stink you, you wouldn't be able to show the level of these officials.
The most typical example is the Wanli period, Dali Temple left commentator Luo Yuren wrote a "wine color wealth and qi four proverbs", almost to the Wanli Emperor pointed at the nose and scolded, the Wanli Emperor was portrayed as lustful, greedy, cruel, mediocre, incompetent, lazy people with no merit in the whole body, in short, he was a good-for-nothing emperor. In the eyes of later generations, such an article is no longer an admonition but a personal attack, and Emperor Wanli can sue him for defamation and reputation infringement with this article. But the final punishment given to him by Emperor Wanli was only to dismiss him from his post and serve the people, which is enough to show how arrogant the arrogance of the officials in this period was.
In the face of these words, Yue Yang didn't pay attention to the almost scoundrel language of these officials, but made a deep deep voice to Chongzhen: "Your Majesty, Chen Yihang has no eyes on the monarch to frame the minister, but as a minister of the Ming Dynasty, he openly vetoed the emperor's will, which can be described as a great crime, and I hope the emperor will punish him severely!" ”
"Your Majesty!"
"Never!"
Several voices sounded almost at the same time, and the old speaker stepped forward and said loudly: "Your Majesty Mingjian, I have always been responsible for the affairs of the court, and what Lord Chen said may be inappropriate, but this is also his duty and should not be punished!" ”
"Well, what Lord Yang said is very true, the official has always had the right to hear about things, and my dynasty has an ancestral system that is not guilty of words, what is the crime of Lord Chen?"
"That being said, Lord Chen has indeed gone a little too far."
"Hmph, the loyal and brave marquis is a martial artist, if you scold, you will scold, what can you do?"
Many officials in the hall talked a lot, but most of the people were biased towards those officials, but few people spoke for Yue Yang, and after a while, the hall gradually quieted down, and everyone turned their eyes to Chongzhen, waiting for his verdict.
At this time, Chongzhen was also a little embarrassed, Yue Yang entered Beijing according to his will, but Chen Yihang jumped out and blamed him, from this point of view, Chen Yihang really didn't give himself face as an emperor, wouldn't it be too faceless if he didn't punish him severely. But if Chen Yihang is severely punished, he knows the virtues of those officials, and he will definitely make a fuss, and it will be another headache at that time.
In the end, Chongzhen threw this hot potato to Yue Yang, "Yue Aiqing, this matter started because of you, what do you think should be done?" ”
Yue Yang said without thinking: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that Chen Yihang is lawless, and wantonly frames the minister with the intention of subverting my Ming Dynasty, and it is reasonable for Ling Chi to execute and punish the nine clans, but considering that Your Majesty will rule the world with benevolence, the nine clans will be spared, and it will be good to cut off his head." ”
"What ......"
As soon as Yue Yang's words fell, the Taiji Hall immediately turned into a pot of porridge, not only the officials, but even all the ministers were boiling. Everyone was stunned by these words, this thing is not crazy, it was just a copy of the official who participated in it, and he was going to punish the nine clans, what a cruel person can do such a thing.
And the two young speech officials standing behind Yue Yang also jumped up, and the speech official surnamed Yang scratched Yue Yang's face even more.
Seeing that this old guy dared to do it to himself, Yue Yang was not polite, and immediately punched him, only to hear a muffled sound of "wave", and the old man's face was suddenly smashed with peach blossoms, blood flowed on his face, and the whole person immediately fell to the ground motionless.
"Presumptuous ......"
"Shaft dares to ......"
Seeing that Yue Yang dared to really make a move, many of the Yanguan's eyes turned red, and they immediately rushed towards Yue Yang...... (To be continued.) )xh118
