***

Although the capital is not as uncomfortable as the uncomfortable heat and humidity of Yongzhou, it has another kind of dry heat.

Zheng Shixiu followed behind a small yellow door and hurried along the corridor towards the Chongzheng Palace.

On a hot summer day, he was running an errand in the public hall, but he was suddenly summoned by the Son of Heaven, and he was in a hurry, and after a short time, he walked out of the sweat of his head and back.

Although Xiao Huangmen, who came to summon him, didn't say anything, Zheng Shixiu could more or less guess why the Son of Heaven summoned him this time.

He didn't have the slightest apprehension in his heart, he only put his right hand into the left sleeve pocket and touched it, and only after making sure that the fold in it was not lost halfway, did he put a heart back into his stomach.

Walking to the eaves outside the Chongzheng Palace, the little yellow gate stood still, turned to Zheng Shixiu and said, "Zheng Yushi, please wait." ”

Then he bowed, and went to the middle of the temple.

Zheng Shixiu stood in place, waiting for the inside, and his mind was still thinking about entering the palace for a while, once the Son of Heaven asked, how would he reply. However, it didn't take long for the little yellow door to enter, but he could come out and say to him, "Please go to the side hall and wait." ”

As he spoke, he led the way ahead.

Zheng Shixiu was silent on his face, but he couldn't help but be suspicious in his heart.

When I summoned my family before, I was still very anxious, how long has it been, and I was about to be sent to the side hall to wait?

He often goes in and out of the palace, and naturally knows that once he has to go to the side hall to wait, it will not be a moment to meet the Son of Heaven, and waiting for an hour is considered to be a good luck, if it is not good, it is also very normal to sit in it for half a day to see His Majesty.

Zheng Shixiu couldn't help but turn his head to look at the Chongzheng Hall with the door closed, guessing which minister was inside, and wondering if there was an urgent matter in any part of the court.

That place was not so much a side hall as a side room, but a small tea room, in which there were four or five chairs for ministers waiting for the Son of Heaven to summon him.

Zheng Shixiu entered the room, but saw that there were already two people sitting in it, both with fresh faces, who were talking to each other, and when they saw him enter, they stopped their mouths together and got up to salute.

He is in the imperial history platform, although the official character is not high, and the power and position are not heavy, but when he comes to the responsibility of the imperial history, he is to picket hundreds of officials, and he hears about things, even if he is still a small official, he can still straighten his back and stand on the court to fight with the important ministers of the two governments; Second, since he became an official, he has always been extremely respected by the Son of Heaven, and he has been praised and rewarded all the way.

is so smooth, and there is the support of the lord of the world behind him, even if he has encountered some slight ups and downs in the past few years, he has already crossed it easily, and he has always been a character who would rather bend than bend, and is jealous and hateful, so he is naturally more able to act on a rampage, and rarely consider the consequences.

When he saw a high-ranking official on weekdays, he was very cold, and he didn't want people to say that he was a heavy minister, but when he saw two fresh faces, he really didn't bother to pay attention to it, so he arched his hand, nodded slightly, and reported his surname, even if he returned the salute.

Zheng Shixiu is young, and he is wearing a green-robed official uniform, so he really doesn't look like a high-ranking official.

The two people on the other side wanted to pull him to say a few words first, but when they saw that he ignored him, they were all a little displeased, and they didn't stick their hot faces to his cold ass, so the two of them talked to themselves, and Zheng Shixiu found a chair far away and sat down, and turned out the folds in his sleeves and looked at it carefully.

The excerpt is a copy, and the original has already been handed over to the desk of the Son of Heaven, from beginning to end, it was all Zheng Shixiu's words and sentences, and it took half a month to sort it out.

There are mainly three impeachments, one is that Song Pu, the governor of Jingzhou, embezzled and abused a total of 160,000 yuan of minister's money, which was not only used for entertainment, but also rewarded his subordinates without authorization.

The other case is the impeachment of two officials in the Grain and Grain Institute and the Metropolitan Survey Division, allowing the Kyoto Prefecture to arbitrarily disburse money and goods, and only the vouchers issued by the three divisions, without all of them being examined and stamped by the division, one was given to receive the materials, and the other was reviewed and passed, and no mistakes were found.

Although these two are important, they will not make him nervous, and the real trouble is the last one.

-- Impeachment of the officials of the academy for "stealing from the prison masters", misusing public funds, feasting and drinking, and playing with prostitutes.

Zheng Shixiu looked at the last part of his fold again and again, his palms were already oozing with sweat, and his heart was beating two points faster.

Although he has been in Yushi Taizhong for less than three years, he has seen a lot, and naturally has his own opinions on the situation in the court.

From the day the fold was handed over, he knew that as long as the Son of Heaven did not forcibly suppress the matter, his impeachment would inevitably cause an uproar in the court.

The academy has never been a place of interest, there is not much oil and water in it, and there is no power, so it takes out the paper in it and resells it, and earns dozens of yuan a month, which is used for feasting, drinking, and playing with prostitutes, which is not at the same level as the first one that embezzled and abused the minister's money, 160,000 yuan.

However, this time it was Yang Yifu who was in charge.

Fan Yaochen's son-in-law.

Zheng Shixiu has no intention of getting involved in party disputes, and he doesn't need to get involved in party disputes.

He is a minister of the Son of Heaven, he is the imperial history, all he has to do is to maintain the rules of the imperial court and maintain the authority of the Son of Heaven.

But he doesn't know, once he knows this, he can't pretend to be stupid, and his temperament can't tolerate him pretending to be stupid.

The impeached official was his former classmate and friend for many years, and the two had a close relationship, Zheng Shixiu did not hesitate, but the hesitation was extremely short-lived, and it could not stop him from acting.

In the past half a month, he has collected evidence and planned to write a chapter, and he also knows that there must be Huang Zhaoliang and his party in this matter, and he may have been calculated by the other party and used as a knife and axe to hit Fan Yaochen.

But he would never ignore it for that reason.

Even if he is targeted by someone with a heart, but the flies don't bite the eggs, if Yang Yifu doesn't really have a problem, doesn't act inappropriately, doesn't really commit a crime, or no matter how many Yellow Party people follow him every day to find mistakes, it will be useless.

If you have made a mistake, you will be punished.

Even if this person is a friend of his, he should not be beyond this.

As for what will be involved in this incident in the future, it is not within the scope of his consideration.

That depends on what the Son of Heaven means.

Zheng Shixiu lowered his head and silently read the evidence on the top of the chapter, and he had almost memorized it backwards, so he put the fold back into his sleeve, and was about to close his eyes and recuperate, and enter the hall after a while, so that he could count the impeachments to the Son of Heaven one by one, but he happened to hear the complaints of two people who were waiting here not far away.

"The new one who took office in the examination department was really ruthless, and he pressed me in Bozhou for three years, and I could have come back to report on my work last year, but I said that I was not profitable in the field service, and I didn't know how to check it, saying that I was very bad, and fined me for two months. It just grinded me to death! ”

Another person: "Who said no, you are good, you are still in Bozhou, but you don't see what kind of place I am......"

The two of them are very familiar with each other, as if they have known each other for many years.

Zheng Shixiu had no intention of eavesdropping, but the place was small, but he couldn't ignore the sound if he wanted to, only a conversation entered his ears.

After sitting for a while, he finally figured out the situation between the two.

But it turned out that these two people were fellow villagers, one had been an official for six or seven years, and the other had been an official for four or five years, but now they have not been able to change to official - not to mention the court officials, not even a Beijing official.

It's just that the two knew each other well, and the relationship was not bad in the past, who knew that when they entered the palace today to report on their work, they also met, from early morning to this time, they had been waiting for three hours, although they didn't dare to have any complaints about the Son of Heaven between the words, but the meaning of the secret rubbing in that tone was heard by everyone.

One person secretly soured that he was inferior and incapacitated, so he naturally did not pay attention to it, and only the rest of the high-powered people could be in it, and one person said that there was no need to be arrogant, and it would come from having the opportunity for you to make a difference.

The two mediocre petty officials, who have no experience, were still trembling and sweating when they first entered the palace, but they waited for most of the day, but everyone waited anxiously and dryly, compared to sitting in a daze, naturally talking loudly and commenting on current affairs is more interesting.

At first, they would lower their voices a little, but when they got to the end, sometimes they couldn't help but talk louder and louder, and the things they discussed also shifted from their own political achievements and promotions in office in the past few years to the palace examination that had only passed.

"It seems that there are not a few in Jixian County." One humanity.

The other person replied with some schadenfreude: "The reincarnation of the Heavenly Dao, there are too many in the previous subject, and the feng shui of Jixian County has been disturbed, so naturally the current department is weak, compared to Jixian County, it is really still the ...... of the country."

"It seems that two of the first three are prisoners in the Guozi Prison, and the other one is from Yongzhou?"

The other person sneered: "Where is it from Yongzhou!" It's only you who can write it! Since Gu Yanzhang won the champion by relying on his Yanzhou nationality, everyone has learned from him, but he has made a 'good' start! Compared with us in the capital, who worked hard to squeeze those few names, these opportunistic people can easily enter Beijing Province to take the test......"

There was sarcasm in those words.

One person sighed: "That Gu Yanzhang relied on the champion and the first, and now he is already a state governor!" ”

Another person said: "Qinzhou Zhizhou!" What is there to do, tell you to do it, and you are willing to do it? I think that their subject is the most unappointable. ”

And said: "You do the math, the rest of the people in that subject are not counted, only the three from Jixian County, but they are not the one with the best ranking in the first ranking, and the worst dispatch?" ”

The other person thought for a while and said, "It's just the one who is the imperial history, relying on the sky to eat, who can compare!" It's just the academy, but it's not necessarily! ”

The man in front of him smiled and said, "Have you forgotten who his Yue Shan name is?" ”

"It's hard to move around when someone is staring at you." The other person stretched out his right hand, gave a thumbs up, hinted at Huang Dashen, and said, "It's better to be the one from Yushitai, if you think about it, you won't need it for a long time, and you can enter Hanlin!" ”

Zheng Shixiu heard the two of them discuss, couldn't help frowning, and was about to interrupt, but he heard someone knocking on the door suddenly, and then a person walked in, his body was tall, his actions were calm, and his face was very familiar.
