Chapter 208: Fierce Debate
With Li Yuntian's impeachment, the Taihe Hall was surprisingly quiet, and many people's eyes showed puzzled looks, wanting to know what Li Yuntian's "amazing words" would be next. The fastest update is the most stable, I will tell you, the fastest update of the novel is the eye. Hurry? Read the website
"Your Majesty, there are clouds in the Book of Poetry, the whole world is not the king's land, and the shore of the land is not the king's ministers, and the ministers think that since the ministers eat His Majesty's Yulu, then they naturally have to share their worries for His Majesty instead of talking about it generally, or they are strict with others and lenient with themselves, or they only know it but don't know the reason, so that His Majesty's worries are even more worried."
Under the gaze of the ministers, Li Yuntian arched his hand at Emperor Hong Xi and said loudly, "Your Majesty, in the eyes of the ministers, it is for disloyalty and injustice, and it cannot relieve your Majesty's worries, and it is for the corpse to eat vegetarian meals. ”
As soon as this remark came out, everyone in the hall was shocked, Li Yuntian not only belittled Li Qingzheng to uselessness in just a few words, but also had a reasonable basis, starting from the perspective of adding worries to Emperor Hongxi and relieving his worries, incisive and capable, could it be that Emperor Hongxi gave Li Qingzheng a good fortune just to let him block himself?
No one thought that Li Yuntian would be so heavy, which was really beyond the expectations of civil and military officials.
Emperor Hong Xi couldn't help but feel a burst of relief when he heard this, his eloquence was limited, and he was the opponent of Li Qingzheng, a Hanlin scholar, in a debate.
But Li Yuntian is different, like Li Qingzheng, he was born in a professional class, and when he fights, he is naturally hand-to-hand, and he naturally does not fall behind in the ring with Li Qingzheng.
The look on Emperor Hong Xi's face immediately eased a lot, and he looked at Li Yuntian with approval, how many people in the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty really considered relieving the Son of Heaven? Everyone has their own ulterior motives, and Li Yuntian's words just now undoubtedly ripped off the fig leaf of those ministers.
This means that Li Yuntian, as a scholar of the Hanlin Academy, will not only offend those Hanlin of the Hanlin Academy, but I am afraid that many civil servants in the court will also secretly hate him.
There is no doubt that Li Yuntian is not only a loyal minister, but also a loyal minister who maintains imperial power, unlike those civil servants above the court who only know how to intrigue for their own interests.
"Your Majesty, what Li Yushi said is a strong word, and the minister is reasonable, how can he sell his reputation and reputation?" At this moment, Li Qingzheng, whose face was flushed, knelt outside the palace gate and said loudly to Emperor Hong Xi, his words were full of sarcasm, "Do you want the minister to turn a blind eye to the hidden dangers of the Ming Dynasty like Li Yushi?" ”
For a civil servant, especially a minister, selling fame and reputation is the most severe blow and will be regarded as the greatest shame in life.
"Master Li, may I ask the lower official, can His Majesty go beyond the limit when he is filial to the first emperor? If the lower officials are not mistaken, after the end of the first emperor's funeral period last year, His Majesty was still in filial piety clothes, and many ministers at that time implored His Majesty to change auspicious clothes, but it was not until the coffin of the first emperor was moved to the mausoleum that His Majesty took off his filial piety clothes, and set an example for the people of the world to fulfill their filial piety. ”
Li Yuntian knew that Li Qingzheng was not convinced, so he turned slightly sideways and bowed his hand to Li Qingzheng, who was kneeling in front of the palace gate, and said in a deep voice, "Since His Majesty has changed into auspicious clothes, why did he choose a maid during the period of great filial piety?" ”
"The great filial piety, not the form, His Majesty is exhausted, the revitalization of the Ming Dynasty is the greatest filial piety for the first emperor, and our courtiers work together to assist His Majesty, and share worries with His Majesty, which is the greatest loyalty."
After a pause, Li Yuntian looked at Li Qingzheng with a stern expression, "Master Li, do you think your previous actions are loyal?" Could it be that Bachelor Li thinks that His Majesty should go to the mausoleum of the first emperor to guard filial piety for three years like the people? What about Fang Gong's affairs? ”
Facing Li Yuntian's questioning, Li Qingzheng was speechless for a while, his face became more and more red, and fine beads of sweat couldn't help but ooze from his forehead.
Emperor Hongxi has always been filial, otherwise he would not have been filial piety to Emperor Yongle for 27 days.
And one of the cabinet members, Wenhuadian University scholar Quan Jin, is neither a close minister of Emperor Hong Xi, nor a court official of the major ministries, but only the agent of Guanglu Temple, just because he is a famous filial son, so he was able to enter the cabinet.
Therefore, it is really unwise to criticize Emperor Hongxi with filial piety, you must know that when Lu Zhen and Yang Shiqi and others were arguing about whether Emperor Hongxi took off his filial piety clothes and put on auspicious clothes, Li Qingzheng did not speak, and undoubtedly acquiesced to Emperor Hongxi to change into auspicious clothes.
Emperor Hongxi is the Son of Heaven, how can he be like a folk in front of his parents' mausoleum for three years, so who will handle the government affairs of the Ming Dynasty in the three years? There is no doubt that those who have this mind can be punished.
If Emperor Hongxi didn't have to keep filial piety for three years like the people, then after the mourning period of Emperor Yongle, it would be understandable for the palace to choose some maids.
As for the "Fang Gong" in Li Yuntian's mouth, he naturally refers to Fang Xiaoru.
If Emperor Hongxi really kept filial piety for three years, then there would be no possibility of rehabilitating the case of Fang Xiaoru and others, because it would be three years later that Emperor Hongxi could change the verdict of Emperor Yongle's opponent, Xiaoru and others, otherwise it would be unfilial.
Fang Xiaoru is a model of the Ming Dynasty and the person Li Qingzheng admires the most, how dare you say that Emperor Hongxi rehabilitated Fang Xiaoru and others wrongly?
But if he admits that Emperor Hong Xi's approach is right, then what is the saying that he chose a maid during the great filial piety?
Therefore, Li Qingzheng fell into a dilemma for a while, in a dilemma, and did not know what to do.
The civil and military officials in the main hall saw Li Qing kneeling there with red ears in front of him, and whispered about Li Yuntian's words in private.
Emperor Hongxi's undulating chest gradually calmed down, and he looked coldly at the ministers above the main hall, when he was admonished by Li Qingzheng just now, except for Li Yuntian, no one from the Manchu Dynasty stood up to speak to him, which made him lose his temper before.
"Master Li, His Majesty's accession to the throne, the whole world celebrates, it is a first-class happy event for my Ming Dynasty, and the common people will still repair the house to show their joy when they encounter a happy event, and His Majesty is rich all over the world, but it is just a palace that makes people simply repair their lives, what is there to be surprised about?"
Li Yuntian did not plan to let go of Li Qingzheng, he decided to refute Li Qingzheng's admonitions one by one, looked at him quietly and asked, "Dare to ask Bachelor Li, can you use the old mansion when the family is in the school?" We are His Majesty's courtiers, and since His Majesty should not renovate the palace, how should we renovate the old house? Isn't this transgression? ”
Da Dengke refers to the title of the gold list at the time of the imperial examination, and Xiao Dengke refers to the flower candle in the cave room when he marries.
Who will use the old house when the people encounter happy events? It will definitely be renovated and decorated in an extremely festive manner, and Li Qingzheng will naturally be no exception.
Hearing this, Li Qingzheng's heart couldn't help but chuckle, the expression on his face was even more ugly, he just aimed his eyes at Emperor Hongxi above the court, and was proud of admonishing Emperor Hongxi, where did he think of his daily actions, this is what Li Yuntian said about being strict with others and treating himself leniently.
"Master Li, you are a bachelor of Hanlin, a close minister next to the Son of Heaven, why did His Majesty fail to come to the court a few days ago, I think you also know that the imperial doctor in the palace is running back and forth, carefully treating His Majesty. His Majesty worked hard for the Ming Dynasty, if it wasn't really impossible to come to the court, how could he miss the court? ”
Immediately afterwards, Li Yuntian changed a slightly tragic tone, stared at Li Qingzheng and said, "Bachelor Li, whenever the ministers of the court and the central government are sick, His Majesty will send a decree to let him go home to recuperate, is it possible that His Majesty is in poor health, so he can't recuperate for a few days?" ”
Li Qingzheng's face was bloodless, he stretched out his hand to wipe the sweat on his forehead, as a bachelor of Hanlin, he often went in and out of Wenyuan Pavilion, and naturally he was clear about the movements in the palace, a few days ago, Emperor Hongxi had a sudden illness, and the entire Tai Hospital was alarmed, and he was very busy for a while.
It's just that in order to appease the court officials, he didn't disclose his illness to the outside world, but he was exempted from the court on the grounds that he was sick, and he used this to criticize Emperor Hong Xi, which really seemed a little unkind.
"Master Li, is there anything biased in Xiaguan's words?" Looking at Li Qingzheng, who was wiping cold sweat, Li Yuntian asked with a stern expression.
When the civil and military officials in the hall heard this, they all turned to look at Li Qingzheng, wanting to see how he defended himself.
Li Qingzheng looked up at Li Yuntian and the ministers in the hall, and then glanced at Emperor Hong Xi who was sitting on the dragon chair, the corners of his mouth squirmed, and then he knelt down with his head on the ground, his face was full of bitterness, Li Yuntian's words were not only sharp but also true, he couldn't refute it.
"Your Majesty, the minister is at fault, please condemn your majesty." Seeing that Li Qingzheng gave up resistance, Li Yuntian immediately knelt down at Emperor Hong Xi and said loudly, "Your Majesty has a lot of opportunities every day, and often can't sleep at night because of dealing with official business. ”
"Your Majesty, please surrender!" Yang Shiqi was the first to react, and then knelt down and pleaded guilty.
"Your Majesty, please surrender!" Zhou Zheng naturally helped his son-in-law, and then knelt on the ground.
"Your Majesty, please surrender!" Seeing this, the civil and military officials above the main hall knelt down in unison, chanting in their mouths.
"Your Majesty, please surrender!" A moment later, a tsunami-like plea of guilt came from outside the temple gate, and thousands of officials in the square of the Taihe Temple knelt down one after another.
"I have a vast geography and a large population, and you are loyal to your duties and have done your best, what is the crime? Get up. ”
Looking at the civil and military officials kneeling in the main hall, Emperor Hong Xi suddenly brightened up, extremely comfortable, Li Yuntian's argument just now invisibly made his image taller, and after a deep groan, he raised his hand towards the ministers in the void.
"Thank you." Hearing this, all the ministers in the palace thanked them in unison, and then stood up and served.
"Come on, remove its black yarn, and never hire it!" Emperor Hong Xi's eyes fell on Li Qingzheng, who was kneeling in front of the hall, and now his heart was almost out, and he didn't have the intention of killing Li Qingzheng, so he groaned for a while, pointed at Li Qingzheng and said in a deep voice.
"Your Majesty, the minister has to play." As soon as Emperor Hong Xi's words fell, Li Yuntian bowed down and said.
"What's the matter with Aiqing?" Emperor Hong Xi looked at Li Yuntian when he heard this, and his attitude was kind.
"Your Majesty, the minister's words to Master Li just now are just the minister's speculation, Master Li has been outspoken since the time of the first emperor, and he did not hesitate to be imprisoned by the first emperor, and later the first emperor thought that his advice was for the Ming Dynasty's Jiangshan Sheji, and released it and entrusted him with the post of Hanlin Bachelor, so it can be seen that his loyalty is commendable."
Li Yuntian bowed his body and said to Emperor Hong Xi in an orderly manner, "For this reason, I implore Your Majesty to show mercy outside the law and spare Master Li from the crime of gaffe." Although the concept of Master Li and the ministers are different, but his advice is also for the long-term peace and stability of the Ming Dynasty, and there are few officials in the court who are not afraid of life and death, so that they can always be vigilant and the ministers and others do their best to prevent the slightest progress. ”
"How to show mercy?" Emperor Hong Xi bowed his head slightly when he heard this, Li Yuntian was right, although Li Qingzheng offended him, but after all, he was an official, once he suppressed it, it would inevitably make the officials timid when they admonished, and he would also leave a notoriety that blocked the audio-visual.
