Chapter 659: The Prosperous Age
The court battle is always planned and then moved, and the preparation is more important than the poor dagger on the picture of the Golden Palace, there must be a reason to occupy the righteousness, there must be the momentum of the wall falling down and everyone pushing, there must be a crime that incites the anger of the masses, and there must be evidence that can be obtained.
If you want to kill a political opponent, the guilt is very important. Regardless of whether the crime is true or false, it must definitely be linked to the imperial power and the society, for example, when Liu Jin fell, if it wasn't for Qin Kan to set up a bureau to link Liu Jin with rebellion, with Liu Jin's favored status, how could he be killed?
This is also the case at this time today, the civil officials must find a sufficient reason, this reason is at least at the level of disaster to the country and the people, in order to bring down Qin Kan, in exchange for reasons such as Qin Kan taking advantage of his position to see all the wives and concubines in the inner courtyard of the Beijing official mansion above the fourth rank in Beijing when they take a bath, although it will also cause public indignation, but it will definitely not kill him, not only can it not kill him, according to the current emperor's mediocre and absurd temperament, I am afraid that Qin Kan will have to take him with him to participate in the grand event......
As the impeachment of the royal bureaucracy was heard loudly on the golden palace, the ministers in the palace suddenly became agitated.
This is a frontal blow to the traitors of the country, a year after Liu Jin's death, it was finally his turn, the same evil, the same misguided country and the king, the same monstrous power, today's opportunity came, and finally got his handle, if you don't work together to get rid of him, your net worth will be alive in the future?
The king's voice landed, and more than 20 officials suddenly stood up with a hula in the hall, as if they had been rehearsed in advance. shouted in unison: "The ministers seconded the royal bureaucracy, in order to maintain the ancestors' plan to make a law and for the livelihood of the people, I implore His Majesty to dismiss Qin Kan and cut him down, and thoroughly investigate the case of Qin Kan building a ship and going to sea without permission." ”
After the imperial historians finished speaking, Tu Tu and several servants in the six departments also stood up to second, and there was a shout of killing in the hall, only the two cabinet scholars and the six scholars looked at each other, hesitated for a long time, and finally did not take a step.
At this moment, the Golden Palace can be described as murderous. Zhu Houzhao's face turned pale with fright. The six gods sat on the dragon chair and looked around, and finally locked their eyes on Qin Kan's face in the crowd.
Seeing that Qin Kan was still unhurried, Zhu Houzhao was so anxious that he stomped his foot heavily and coughed loudly twice. Said: "Qin Kan." What do you think? ”
The commotion in the hall suddenly fell silent. All eyes were on Qin Kan.
Hearing Zhu Houzhao's roll call, Qin Kan opened his eyes and yawned as if he had just woken up from a big dream. Then he slowly walked out of the court.
"Your Majesty, the impeachment of many colleagues in the palace has already heard the ......"
Zhu Houzhao sat up straight, and his tone was slightly hurried: "Do you have any excuses?" ”
"Yes."
"Come on."
Qin Kan turned his head and swept the countless unkind eyes around him, smiled coldly, and said, "I want to ask the few adults who participated in my impeachment, which of your eyes saw me building a ship in Tianjin?" Even the earth dog guarding the palace knows that I have only been busy in Beizhen Fusi, Guogong Mansion and Fengtian Hall recently, and any person in the Jingshi City can be my witness, but you say that I ran to Tianjin Shipbuilding, which is two hundred miles away, is simply nonsense. ”
The old friends in the hall were stunned.
I can't believe that he is a dignified prince of the country, but he is a scoundrel in front of the civil and military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty.
Take a look at the two years that Xiao Dujun has been on the throne, what kind of goods have been reused!
Wang Yuan's face turned red with anger, and he pointed at Qin Kan and said, "You...... You are a powerful prince, not a craftsman in the dock, and you don't build a ship with your own hands, won't you instruct the people below to do this unseemly thing? ”
Qin Kan said coldly: "What about the evidence? Do you have any evidence for me to instruct others to do this? ”
The king was stunned for a moment, and he was speechless for a moment.
In the past, when the court struggle came to this point, it was a critical juncture for you to live and die, and something like this that can almost be called in front of everyone, where is the evidence needed? But anyone who has a little bit of face is indisputable.
The civil officials were all wrong, they were wrong in deeply underestimating Qin Kan's face, they didn't expect a noble prince to play a scoundrel not only with a blushing face and a heartbeat, but also with a face that was more truthful than chanting the Analects, which really greatly exceeded the expectations of the ministers.
Wang Yi was so angry that he trembled, took a step forward, pointed at Qin Kan and said angrily, "You...... What he has obviously done, he hides his husband with a dignified seven-foot husband, do you dare to admit it? ”
Qin Kan sneered: "I also said that you climbed over the wall of Lord Tu's house in the right capital last night and had a tryst with Lord Tu's third concubine, do you admit it?" ”
There was a big uproar in the whole dynasty, including Zhu Houzhao, countless pairs of eyes were staring at Tu Tu in unison, and all of them were so meaningful......
Tu Tu stood in the center of the main hall, his old face was greener than a cucumber, and he didn't need to look in the mirror to know that the top of his head was as green as his face.
I don't know what dirty thoughts he had, Qin Kan was deliberately silent for a while, and after letting the suspicions of the ministers of the palace fully ferment in his heart, he smiled at Tu Tu: "Lord Tu, forgive me, I was just a metaphor just now, you have a lot, don't go to your heart......"
"Poof-" Zhu Houzhao, who was originally so anxious that the corners of his mouth bubbled, suddenly burst out laughing, and remembered that the occasion was wrong, so he hurriedly covered it up with a string of coughs.
…………
…………
Because the civilian officials underestimated Qin Kan's shamelessness, the attack launched by the court today could not be stopped.
In Zhu Houzhao's strange expression with a smile, the eunuch on duty announced his retreat from the dynasty with a sharp voice, and in the face of the hateful or angry eyes of the officials, Qin Kan's eyes were half-closed, and he walked through the crowd as if no one was waking up.
Walking across the Jinshui Bridge, Ding Shun hurriedly stepped forward, hugged his fist towards Qin Kan with a smile, and said, "Grandpa's eagerness in the Golden Palace just now is wonderful, and his subordinates are full of admiration. ”
Ding Shunren was outside the palace, and when Qin Kan left the palace, he knew that he had learned about the process of the court dispute, and it was obvious that there was a brocade guard in the palace to report to him.
Qin Kan smiled and said, "It's hard for you to describe my nonsense just now as 'quick and wise', Ding Shun." You must be a character in the future. ”
Turning to look at the palace gate, the ministers walked out of the palace in twos and threes, their expressions were not good, and their eyes showed a cold light, and Qin Kan felt as if he was being stared at by a group of wolves.
"I'm afraid it's really going to be immortal this time......" Qin Kan muttered.
Ding Shun's expression perked: "My subordinates are willing to share their worries for my grandfather!" ”
Every time Qin Kan raised the butcher's knife, it was accompanied by either an increase in officials or a promotion, and Qin Kan's killing was definitely not a bad thing for Ding Shun.
Qin Kan said slowly: "Today I am messing around in the Golden Palace, this move can only be delayed for three or two days at most, the civil officials will not let me go, and it is impossible for me to give up building a ship and go to sea, and the two sides cannot compromise." It's a dead end. In that case, let's fight with them for a while, Ding Shun, you can send someone to inquire immediately. The king is only a mere seven products in the matter. With his great courage, he didn't dare to attack me. There must be someone behind the king's back, you go and investigate this matter and report back to me as soon as possible. ”
"Yes!"
*****************************************************************
Tianjin is no longer what it used to be.
At the beginning, it was a small earthen city surrounded by small rammed earth. There are only more than 2,000 households, and there is no yamen in the city except for the commander of the Tianjin Sanwei and a Jinyi Wei Qianhu, and there are no criminal cases such as disputes between the people's livelihood and merchants inside and outside the city, etc., which should be judged by the local squires in Tianjin or the scribes in the Sanwei.
If a place does not follow the mutual restraint of the magistrate and the prefect of the county prefect, and only relies on the military guard to maintain the people's livelihood and business, sooner or later it will cause a big mess. At the beginning, the White Lotus Cult infiltrated the Sanwei in Tianjin, causing the Sanwei to mutiny, and the imperial court had to mobilize a large army to suppress it.
Today's Tianjin city is very different, the city has expanded to the west for nearly ten miles, the original rammed earth city wall has been knocked down, replaced by solid bluestone bricks, the wall is ten zhang high, the wall tower arrow tower battlements and the horse road have both.
Outside the city, snow was flying all over the sky, and the cold wind carried the snow particles on the white field, whapping and hurting on the face.
Today's Tianjin city is still calm as usual, the two teams of sergeants on duty in front of the city gate are holding iron guns around their arms, and their hands are stretched into the cuffs of thin jackets and keep stomping their feet to keep warm, and a dying bonfire is lit outside the city gate, and the fire is about to be extinguished.
The slow sound of horses' hooves was heard in the distance, and the sergeant guarding the gate squinted and couldn't help but be stunned.
At the end of the official road outside the city, a divine brown horse carried a girl wearing a black jacket and a cloak on her shoulders, and the girl's face was covered with a black scarf, and she couldn't see her eyebrows clearly, but just looking at the horse she was riding, she knew that this girl was extraordinary, and I don't know which lady from a rich family ran out to play.
Although the Ming Dynasty is a road guide system, but this system is obviously not well implemented, at least at this moment the sergeant guarding the door did not have the idea of checking the girl's road guide at all, and the horse marched to the city gate, and the two teams of sergeants seemed to become blind in an instant, and let the girl on the horse slowly ride into the city without squinting.
It wasn't until after the girl entered the city that a sergeant who looked like a general flag squinted and reluctantly glanced at the girl's back.
"Look at this style, this dress, which guard should be the distant relatives of the envoy's family, right? Tsk, the figure is beautiful......"
…………
…………
After the girl entered the city, she dismounted, but she was still covered with a face scarf, on which only a pair of beautiful eyes as clear as water and bright as stars appeared.
After entering the city, the girl was slightly taken aback, only to see the widened avenue in the city with people and buildings, busy traffic, street shops, street vendors and merchants, only a noisy and chattering bargain, children's laughter, women's scolding, the sound of the sound came into the ears, but it was a good picture of the prosperous market.
The girl stood in the middle of the road and watched all this, her eyes were full of tears at some point, and the red lips under the face towel were slightly opened, and she murmured like a mosquito.
"He promised me at the beginning...... It really did. ”
