Chapter Seventy-Four: Impeachment
As soon as Gao Gong walked out of the Xuanzhi Gate, a little guy said a few words in his ear in a panic, and then asked:
"My lord, what shall we do now? And so on... Sooner or later, it's going to be troublesome. ”
"Hai Rui, it's this Hai Rui again, hmph, it's just a governor of Yingtian, he really uses chicken feathers as arrows."
After listening to the little girl's words, Gao Gongqi's teeth itched, and he said angrily.
"You go to Lord Shu, Lord Sun, and Lord Song and Lord Chu now, and ask them to come over to the mansion to talk about it, and there is one to wear to the matter."
"Yes, the little one will pass."
Looking at the direction in which the little guy left, Gao Gong sneered, thinking that he was Hai Qingtian, he wanted to see if he really offended these big clans, how long could he, the governor of Yingtian, do.
"Shousuke-sama, why hasn't Shousuke-sama left yet? It's a very cold day, so let's get in the car quickly."
Zhang Juzheng's voice sounded in the back, with a smile in his voice.
Hearing the high arch of the voice, he nodded with a smile and said:
"Taiyue hasn't left yet, I'm waiting for you here, the emperor has been relying more and more on Taiyue recently."
"It's not something else, it's just a whip law at that time, which has been widely implemented recently, and now there are some drawbacks, and the emperor summoned me to talk about it, and the one who really won the emperor's trust is still the first assistant."
Zhang Juzheng smiled, and pushed back without being soft or hard.
Gao Gong smiled, but didn't say anything, lifted the sedan curtain and got into the carriage, and then said:
"It's not too early today, and I'll invite Taiyue to my house to enjoy the plum blossoms another day."
"Shousuke-sama walks slowly."
Zhang Juzheng watched the carriage go away, smiled, turned his head and asked the man next to him:
"How's it going? Where are the Hai Jui people? ”
"I've already arrived in Chungju, and I've already done it according to my father's orders, but I'm afraid there will be a big move on Shousuke's side, this time...."
Zhang Jingxiu frowned, still a little puzzled.
"It's okay, I didn't plan to let Gao Suqing do anything this time, the emperor's body is getting worse and worse now, I'm afraid we still have to make plans early."
Hearing his son's words, Zhang Juzheng waved his hand and said.
"Father, what do you say? Your Majesty, he... What happened to him? The emperor has only been on the throne for six years. ”
Zhang Juzheng's words startled Zhang Jingxiu, the emperor has only been on the throne for a few years, this will not work, if the new emperor is established, who should be chosen.
"The emperor has been addicted to beauty for so many years, plus taking medicine, his body has long been empty, listening to Feng Bao's meaning, he is a little hanging, prepare early, don't make any mistakes."
"My son got it."
Zhang Jingxiu nodded hurriedly.
………….
"Now that the Northeast has been decided, everything is going well, what else do you have to play, why are there so many excerpts?"
Emperor Longqing looked at the thick stack of folds handed over by Li Fang, and asked in a somewhat inexplicable voice.
Hearing this, Shu Hua walked out from both sides of the matter, arched his hand and said:
"Your Majesty, the ministers want to impeach Hai Rui, the governor of Yingtian, who is pedantic and sluggish, does not know how to govern, passes through various states and counties, and provokes trouble."
"As a result, government affairs have been put on hold, state affairs have been slow, and power has been abused, and the minister has asked His Majesty to dismiss Ying Tianxun from his post and replace it with an idle position, so that he can not miss things."
After saying this, Emperor Longqing was stunned for a moment, raised his hand and slowly opened the fold, then threw away a copy, opened it again, threw it away again, repeated it several times, and this time raised his head, looked at Shu Hua and said:
"Hai Rui is honest and honest, loves the people, and now corruption and corruption are prevalent in the south, so doing so is the style of the Ming officialdom, which should be praised, how can it be said that it is an abuse of power."
"I think it should be commended, otherwise wouldn't my treasury be plagued by these silverfish, and if there is no abundant treasury, where will the military food and grass come from? Li Fang, give me a purpose, this time it should be praised. ”
"The slave obeys."
Li Fang said as he lowered his head and went to study the ink, but he put aside the Shu Hua below, neither entering nor retreating.
Gao Gong looked at this scene coldly, his forehead raised slightly, and he was unhappy in his heart, he didn't expect Hai Rui to win the emperor's sacred heart so much.
But according to Hai Rui's stinky temper, how can he have this ability, could it be... Zhang Taiyue, what did he say to the emperor yesterday, and he talked about it for so long.
Zhang Juzheng seemed to feel Gao Gong's gaze, nodded at him slightly, and then continued to stare ahead without squinting.
"Okay, apart from the impeachment of Hai Aiqing, what else does Zhong Aiqing do? If not, let's all retreat. ”
Emperor Longqing seemed to be a little unable to sit still, but there was still a trace of warmth on his face, but he asked impatiently.
Thinking of what Hai Rui did, coupled with the emperor's sacred heart, maybe there was Zhang Juzheng's help, Gao Gong couldn't sit still, and glanced at Dai Fengxiang on the side.
"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that Lord Shu's impeachment is polite, and the states and counties that Lord Hai passes through are full of complaints, and he is a doctor of fish and meat."
"Sheltering traitors, and even some of them are still rogue bandits, and those who participate in the tax resistance, now many states and counties can no longer collect taxes, isn't this the result of the Haida people's fame and chaos, please think twice."
Dai Fengxiang said, lifted his robe, and knelt on the ground, his words were earnest, much more serious than what Shu Hua said before.
"Please also ask the emperor to think twice."
Immediately afterwards, most of the officials of the DPRK and China knelt on the ground and spoke earnestly.
Emperor Longqing looked at the kneeling ministers in the main hall, frowned, turned his eyes to Zhang Juzheng and Gao Gong, who were still standing, and asked:
"Two Aiqing, what should you say?"
"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that there must be a reason for the groundless wind, not to mention that so many people have impeached the governor of the sea, and the minister feels that if this matter is not resolved, I am afraid it will be difficult to explain."
Gao Gong said, slowly kneeling on the ground.
Emperor Longqing, who said this, frowned, turned his head to look at Zhang Juzheng, and asked:
"Aiqing, you have always relied on me the most, do you think what Shoufu said makes sense?"
"Emperor Qi, what Lord Shoufu said is naturally reasonable, but this truth is not all accurate, after all, the three of them become tigers, and there are many people who wrongfully frame Lord Hai."
Zhang Juzheng said as he glanced at Gao Gong, and then said:
"Therefore, the minister thinks that it is not appropriate to make a direct conclusion on this matter, first thoroughly investigate the truth and falsehood, and then give an explanation to all the adults at that time, it is not impossible."
"Well, Zhang Qing is reasonable, I will send someone to investigate this matter and then make a decision, let's retreat first."
After Emperor Longqing finished speaking, he never gave these people a chance again, turned around and left.
Watching the emperor leave, Gao Gong propped himself up, slowly stood up, smiled at Zhang Juzheng, and said:
"Taiyue is cautious, it's rare for the emperor to be so happy, such a competition, but I lost."
"Lord Shoufu is serious, I'm just answering the truth, after all, Lord Hai should be the governor of the Jiangnan area, and he has also made a lot of political achievements, and it is a little inappropriate to be suddenly dethroned."
Zhang Juzheng smiled, arched his hand, and exited the hall with a smile.
