Chapter 104: The Minister's Performance
Until Sun Chengzong and Wei Zhongxian entered the world.
The feast in the Wenhua Hall is still in full swing.
The so-called sutra feast is divided into daily and monthly lectures.
The etiquette of the monthly lecture is very complicated, and the content of the lecture is mostly vague, which requires all the ministers to participate, and it is all some vain things.
But it's a different story.
This kind of lecture is more practical, and it is usually Hanlin who participates, and sometimes the cabinet ministers will sit here and listen if they have nothing to do.
Today is the day.
The emperor finally participated in a sutra feast, which made the Hanlin very excited.
Because it hasn't been a time like this for a long time.
Everyone talked eloquently, very warmly.
So after Wei Zhongxian came in, he was about to report it, but Sun Chengzong stopped him with his eyes.
In his opinion, the teaching of the Hanlin should not be interrupted because of a trivial matter.
So he crept to the corner of the temple, trying not to disturb him.
Of course...... All of this was under the eyes of the Emperor of the Apocalypse.
The Emperor of the Apocalypse naturally understands this master, this master's personality is relatively strong, but he is very concerned about his studies, he is an extremely upright person, and sometimes even the Emperor of the Apocalypse is a little afraid of him.
Therefore, the Emperor of the Apocalypse knew Sun Chengzong's thoughts, so he did not interrupt.
The feast continued.
The lecturer who teaches knowledge now is Yang Xian, a scholar at the Hanlin Academy.
What Yang Xian discussed is about the grand situation of Confucius when he was the capital of the Lu country, and the great rule of the Lu country.
In fact, the Emperor of the Apocalypse had already listened to these contents.
He was drowsy when he listened, if it weren't for Sun Chengzong being here, he was afraid that he would have been snoring.
Yang Xian said it eloquently, after all, she did this professionally, and when it came to emotion, she was so excited that she couldn't help herself.
It can be seen that His Majesty's appearance was silent, and he didn't react, so he coughed: "The sage ruled the country of Lu, and even the country of Lu for a while, he did not close his door at night and did not leave the road behind, which is the benefit of practicing benevolent government." After two hundred years, the Ming Dynasty has been able to continue to this day, and it is also because of the previous emperors who followed the way of the saints as the result. However, recently, there have been signs of collapse of the imperial platform, which makes the ministers worried. ”
As soon as this statement came out...... The Emperor of the Apocalypse was momentarily stunned, and he opened his mouth wide as if he had stuffed an egg.
The Hanlin were all smiling.
Huang Liji, a scholar of the first assistant university in the cabinet, who was sitting in a corner, seemed to be indifferent.
You must know that the development of the feast to the present, in fact, has already formed a set of rules, from the beginning of the Ming Dynasty to speak freely, after countless times of debugging, has been reduced to a formal lecture.
After all, the status and identity between the emperor and the courtiers are absolutely insurmountable, which leads to the fact that the two sides are in a state where no one can purely enter the classroom in the field of "teacher-student" relationship.
In terms of content, that is, the teachers' "handouts" need to be revised by the cabinet in advance, and they are even more afraid of implicitly ridiculing in the content, especially when it comes to current affairs.
Any syllabus and content taught will be retried in the first instance, and no mistakes can be made.
Right now...... Obviously a bit overstepping.
Reading Yang Xian, he suddenly changed the subject, this was definitely not his doing.
When the Emperor of the Apocalypse heard this, he immediately shook his spirits, compared to the content that made people want to sleep, it was obvious that this kind of content had an appetite for him.
Suddenly, he became fierce and said with great interest: "Oh, there are signs of collapse of the government, what is the reason for this?" ”
Yang Xian said: "Because the discipline of the imperial court has been destroyed. ”
"Where was it destroyed?" When the Emperor of the Apocalypse said this, he subconsciously glanced at Wei Zhongxian.
He couldn't help but say silently in his heart: Didn't you come to scold Wei Banban again?
But Wei Zhongxian was smiling and looking very calm, as if nothing had happened.
I saw Yang Xian say again: "The imperial court has always governed the military with literature, and governed civil affairs with scholars who read the way of saints. Although there are some flaws in this approach, there has never been any major mess. However, His Majesty set up an inspection in Beijing because of his trust in the Jinyi Wei Hundred Households, and ordered the reckless man to rule the neighborhood, although the neighborhood has always ignored the civil ministers, and used the Shuntian Mansion to oversee the affairs and litigation of the various districts, but after this case was opened, not only did it disrupt the court, but the ministers were worried about the fact that the warriors did not learn and did not know how to do it, and they did not appreciate the suffering of the people, and abused the people, so that the people complained and could not be redressed, and the suffering was unspeakable......"
Speaking of which, it can be regarded as a poor dagger.
This is not for Wei Zhongxian.
Instead, he went to Zhang Jingyi.
The Emperor of the Apocalypse was displeased, his face suddenly turned a little colder, and he said lightly: "This matter, there is, but it's just a neighborhood, what does it matter?" ”
Yang Xian said: "As soon as this case is opened, it is the way to take trouble." ”
All the Hanlin looked respectful, but they all nodded secretly in their hearts.
Huang Liji, as a cabinet scholar, stands to reason that Yang Xian's rebellious words should be stopped immediately at this time, but he still knelt firmly on one side, noncommittal.
Sun Chengzong in the corner, his face was also unwavering, he only watched silently, he had seen a lot of such a situation in the past, he has just come to Beijing now, many situations are still unclear, and they need to be understood slowly.
The Emperor of the Apocalypse said: "I only appoint an inspector and let Zhang Qing's family govern a neighborhood, will the world be in chaos?" ”
Yang Xian said: "Even if it is a street and a square, in this neighborhood, the people living in this neighborhood are also the people of my Ming Dynasty. These people, regard Your Majesty as their parents, they are also Your Majesty's children, Your Majesty is the Ninety-Five, but you should not do it because of the evil, how can you bear to let these thousands of people, but because of their personal preferences, and put themselves in dire straits? ”
This is said to be righteous and awe-inspiring, but everyone who listens to it can't help but high-five.
The Emperor of the Apocalypse obviously had an ugly face.
This is not only scolding Zhang Jingyi, but also scolding the emperor with him.
This can't be done.
That's not allowed.
But I didn't see that I could do a good job by following your advice.
The Emperor of the Apocalypse defended: "Let's talk about the matter, what are the bad deeds of this Zhang Jingyi?" ”
Yang Xian said calmly: "This point...... The minister has already glimpsed one or two from the reports in various places. ”
Yang Xian obviously came prepared, and he continued with a heartfelt voice: "The Jinyi guard of Qingpingfang is blackmailing merchants, this is reported by Shuntianfu. Yushi Huang Youlong played again, saying that Jinyi Wei abused the people, and once on the street, arrested more than 70 people, and sentenced them overnight, which can be described as a severe punishment...... And ......"
The Emperor of the Apocalypse suddenly remembered many of the previous notes.
He was busy pressing: "Then according to what Qing said, what should I do?" ”
Yang Xian said: "The minister has no prejudice against Zhang Baihu, he is a Jinyi guard, how can he know the hardships of governing one side?" The minister also knew that Zhang Jingyi was just a teenager, and even if many horrific things happened in his place, but thinking about it, it may not be his original intention. ”
What this probably means is that it's not that Zhang Jingyi is bad, in fact, it's just that Zhang Jingyi's level is too low.
If you continue to extend, it is actually the result of this guy not learning and not studying.
Of course, the reading here does not mean that Zhang Jingyi does not know how to read and write, in the eyes of people like Hanlin, everyone below the level of people is illiterate, and there is no opinion on this.
Yang Xian said again: "So Your Majesty only needs to remove his inspection, and let him do a good job of pro-army affairs, other than that...... The minister also heard that he had a wide range of street chiefs and alley chiefs, and these street and alley chiefs were just cool officials, and they should also be abolished. ”
Yang Xian did not pursue Zhang Jingyi's culpability, after all, this Zhang Jingyi still had the merit of saving the driver.
The Emperor of the Apocalypse hesitated, Zhang Jingyi did it so badly?
He didn't believe it, so he said, "What do you think?" ”
I don't listen to you Yang Xian alone.
His question immediately made the temple lively.
A Hanlin said: "Your Majesty, what Yang Gong said is right, and the minister has also heard that the people of Qingpingfang can't stand it anymore." ”
"Here, I also heard that a businessman named Wang Zheng couldn't stand the exploitation of the Qingpingfang Inspection Division, so he went to Shuntian Mansion to complain."
"I heard something here...... There, even the people spit and spit at the mouth, and they will be taken away, saying that they will be fined, and they will take away their property, and they will be harsh and fierce......
"Minister......
"The minister also has a ......"
Boy......
I don't know if I don't know, I don't know...... Even the Emperor of the Apocalypse was stunned.
It's inferior!
In this way, Zhang Jingyi has only been in office for more than a month, and according to this statement, Zhang Jingyi has to do at least dozens of bad things every day to make up for so many crimes.
Even if you don't eat or sleep, you have to do two or three bad things an hour.
He's so diligent?
"Your Majesty......" Yang Xian continued very sadly: "The cool official has misled the country, and at this point, why does Your Majesty still protect him?" Please make a decision as soon as possible to reassure the people. ”
It's almost a one-sided situation.
All the pressure was on the Emperor of the Apocalypse.
The Emperor of the Apocalypse frowned and hesitated, "Even if everyone thinks this is inappropriate, I ...... it."
Speaking of which.
But a different voice suddenly appeared: "The situation that the minister sees is different from the princes!" ”
As soon as these words came out, the ministers were in an uproar.
So everyone looked towards the goal.
It's just that...... It's okay not to look at it, but look at it...... Everyone froze.
If it's just an ordinary person, everyone says east, and you say west alone, then how old are you, do you want to do it against so many of us? Who's afraid of whom!
But the man in front of him ...... Many people know each other...... Sun Chengzong.
Sun Chengzong's prestige, as well as his reputation in Shilin, is full of weight.
A man like him can be worth a hundred.
