Chapter 1351: Impeachment
For the matter of official joy, it has been more than three months, and there are still people who hold on to it, Shangguan Xiu is angry and funny, and said: "The moment our army invaded Tianjing, Ningnan had already perished, how can the backyard of the eldest grandson be regarded as a harem? Even if Guanxi is indeed at fault, I have already punished it at that time, and now Lord Du brings up the old matter, how many times do you want the court to punish Guanxi?"
Du Xian took a deep breath, first glanced at Tang Ling, and saw that the latter was sitting on the dragon chair, noncommittal, and he said with a straight face: "Your Highness punished Guan Xi with a hundred military sticks at that time, and this kind of punishment is inevitably too light. "Heaven"
A hundred military sticks were light, but was the secret assassination of the Duwei Mansion still light? It's just that some words are not easy to say in front of everyone.
Shangguan Xiu said to Tang Ling: "Your Majesty, although Guan Xi is wrong, but when he captured Tianjing, it is also true that he made great military exploits, even if he made up for his merits, he could be exempted from the death penalty." β
As soon as his words fell, Tang Mingzhu also walked out quickly, bowed to Tang Ling and saluted: "I also hope that Your Majesty will spare General Guan this time for the sake of the general's outstanding military exploits!"
Tang Mingzhu started, Qiu Yi immediately came out of the ranks, and said, "I hope that Your Majesty will be extrajudicial and gracious." β
In fact, the matter of official happiness, if you say it bigger, it can be said to be bigger than the sky, if you say it smaller, it can be said to be smaller than the nose of a needle, but it is really disgusting, at least Tang Ling was disgusted by him.
From the moment the Feng Army captured the Tianjing Palace, the Tianjing Palace was no longer Ningnan's, but the Wind Country's, the emperor's, and her Tang Ling's palace.
Guan Xi is in her palace**, and she is upside down with her concubines on her dragon couch, can Tang Ling not be disgusted?
As long as Guan Xi was mentioned, Tang Ling could think about the uncleanness of the Tianjing Palace. Let her leave a courtier who will disgust her all the time, this is already out of Tang Ling's belly.
However, at this time, seeing Shangguan Xiu's resolute attitude, Tang Ling didn't want to argue with Shangguan Xiu about this matter in the court, she waved her hand and said, "This matter will be discussed later." β
She didn't insist on executing Guan Xi, but she didn't explicitly say that she would let him go, in short, Guan Xi's matter was not over.
The reason why Du Xian dared to disagree with Shangguan Xiu on the matter of Guan Xi was also to grasp Tang Ling's thoughts, knowing that the emperor could not tolerate this person, and he now stood up to impeach Guan Xi, but he just said what the emperor wanted to say but was not easy to say.
Under Tang Ling's stopping, the matter of official happiness was unresolved, Du Xiangang returned to the train, and the Minister of Finance Gan Ping came out of the queue, bowed his hand, and said: "Weichen has something to play." β
Gan Ping is one of the few civil officials in the Feng Kingdom who does not gang up and does practical things in a down-to-earth manner, and is deeply loved and respected by Tang Ling. Seeing Gan Ping coming out, Tang Ling smiled and asked, "What is the matter with Gan Aiqing?"
"Your Majesty, I think that the current Minister of Finance of the Governor's Office, Lord Jun, is not qualified for the post of Minister of Finance, and I hope that Your Majesty will be able to see everything and choose another capable person to take on this important task. Gan Ping said.
Originally, Cai Xiao also wanted to impeach Jun Shengnan, but as soon as he impeached Peng Zhuo, he hit a bag in his head, and then he couldn't impeach anymore, but he didn't expect that Gan Ping, who had always been upright and never stood in line, took over his class and continued to impeach Jun Shengnan, who he failed to impeach.
Cai Xiao, who was standing in the middle of the train, suddenly lit up, subconsciously raised his head and looked at Gan Ping.
Gan Ping took over the class of the old loyal minister Gan Lin, he was not very old, not yet forty, but he was extremely old.
Tang Ling didn't expect Gan Ping to impeach Jun Shengnan as well, she was somewhat surprised, first glanced at Cai Xiao's side, and then asked with a pleasant face: "Why did Gan Aiqing impeach Lord Jun? But what mistakes did Lord Jun make during his tenure as Minister of Finance?"
Gan Ping shook his head and said, "Lord Jun has not made a mistake. β
Tang Ling burst out laughing and asked puzzledly, "Since Lord Jun has never made a mistake, then why does Gan Aiqing want to impeach Lord Jun?"
Gan Ping said: "As the saying goes, do more wrong, do less wrong, and if you don't do it, it's natural." Whether it is the Minister of Finance or the Minister of Finance, they are all in charge of the money bag of a place, others can not do things, they can cheat and cheat, it doesn't matter, but the Minister of Finance must not do things, in such an important position, the court should not support idlers. βql11
His words have been said very bluntly, Jun Shengnan did not make any mistakes during his tenure as Minister of Finance, the reason is very simple, because he is not wrong with anything, he naturally did not make any mistakes.
To put it bluntly, the money pockets in the Ningnan area are not managed by Jun Shengnan at all, but by the entire Jun family, which is too easy to use for public and private purposes, and it is too easy to fill private pockets.
In Gan Ping's view, Shangguan Xiu's use of the power of the Jun family to stabilize the economy of Ningnan is not a superior policy, and the future trouble is too great, and it is easy to raise tigers.
Shangguan Xiu and Gan Ping's views are diametrically opposed, at present, the Ningnan region is in ruins, and the stabilization of the economy of the Ningnan region is inseparable from the contribution of the Jun family, at least at the current stage, the great help of the Jun family is indeed conducive to the stability of the situation in the Ningnan region of the Feng Country.
He said: "During the three months of your reign, the Ministry of Finance collected more than two million taels of silver for the treasury, isn't this the work of your lord?"
Gan Ping said: "The huge Ningnan region, a total of thirty-six counties, in three months, only two million taels of silver was collected, which has made His Highness full of praise, this Minister of Finance, it is inevitably too easy to do, even if it is changed to a pawn outside the palace, I am afraid it will not be worse than this." β
Shangguan Xiu also knows Gan Ping well, and knows that he is not deliberately targeting himself, but just talking about things.
He said: "Lord Gan, don't forget that at the beginning of the capture of Tianjing, our country did not occupy a few counties in Ningnan, and the current situation was gradually opened up after the capture of Tianjing. In this case, the Ministry of Finance not only did not ask the court for a tael of silver, but also contributed more than two million taels to the court, even if Lord Gan does not think that Lord Jun is meritorious, but it cannot be said that Lord Jun has not done anything!"
Gan Ping shook his head again and again, and said: "Weichen still said that, three months, two million taels of silver, this is by no means a dazzling feat, no matter who it is replaced, it will not be worse than this." Lord Jun may have talent, but Wei Chen failed to see it, but for the time being, it is also a fact that Lord Jun is not qualified for the post of Minister of Finance. As he spoke, Gan Ping knelt down to Tang Ling and said, "Please Your Majesty Mingjian!"
Tang Ling was silent for a while, then turned his gaze and asked, "Where is Lord Jun?"
Jun Shengnan, who was standing in the middle of the train, was shocked, hurriedly stepped out of the column, knelt on the ground, knocked forward, and stammered: "Micro...... Wei Chen see His Majesty...... Your Majesty!"
Tang Ling leaned forward slightly and looked at Jun Shengnan carefully, but he kept kneeling on the ground, and she couldn't see what he looked like. She waved her hand and said, "Lord Jun, please get up!"
"Micro ...... Wechen didn't dare to ......"
Hearing this, not only Tang Ling was displeased, but even Shangguan Xiu frowned slightly.
What kind of sin have you committed that you don't dare to stand up and speak in front of Your Majesty? Saying such soft words will not please anyone, but will only put yourself in a desperate situation of guilt.
Shangguan Xiu sighed secretly in his heart, Jun Shengnan's half a catty and eight taels, how could Shangguan Xiu not know, if he was not easy to control, if he did not have a Jun family behind him, Shangguan Xiu would not be able to put him in the position of Minister of Finance no matter what.
Tang Ling didn't let Jun Shengnan get up again, he was willing to kneel on the ground, so let him kneel, she asked expressionlessly, "Regarding Gan Aiqing's impeachment, does Lord Jun have anything to say to me?"
"Please be gracious, please forgive your majesty!" Jun Shengnan knelt down and kowtowed like pounding garlic.
Tang Ling couldn't help but look at Shangguan Xiu, as if asking him, this is the Minister of Finance you selected? Compared with Peng Zhuo, the Minister of Agriculture who is neither humble nor arrogant, but calm and calm, it is inevitably too different, right?
Shangguan Xiu saw that Tang Lingdi was puzzled, he smiled bitterly and shook his head slightly towards her. He reuses Jun Shengnan, not because he values him as a person, but just because he values the Jun family.
What he meant, Tang Ling understood, it was easy to enable Jun Shengnan, but it was not easy to abandon Jun Shengnan, it was tantamount to indicating that the imperial court had decided to tear up with the Jun family, and I am afraid that the Jun family would not give up.
Tang Ling said to Gan Pingyouyou: "Jun family, there are still some contributions to the stability of the situation in Ningnan in the imperial court, what does Gan Aiqing think?"
Gan Ping's face immediately sank, his brows tightened, and he said in a shocking voice: "Your Majesty, this huge world was not given to our country by the Jun family, but by His Royal Highness Guogong who led millions of soldiers in our country, and every inch of mountains and rivers was beaten down by inch of blood.
His words made Jun Shengnan, who was kneeling on the ground, tremble, and Tang Ling's eyes flashed with a fine light.
She subconsciously straightened up, picked up the teacup, took a sip of tea slowly, and asked word by word: "Then, according to Gan Aiqing's opinion, who should take over the Minister of Finance?"
Gan Ping Zhengse said: "Weichen thinks that the deputy envoy of the Ministry of Finance, Master Jian Lijian, is more qualified for this position. β
Listening to Gan Ping's recommendation turned out to be Jian Li, a native of Ningnan, Cai Xiao couldn't listen to it anymore, he said slowly: "Lord Gan also said that the Minister of Finance is related to the money bag in Ningnan and is very important, and the post of Minister of Finance should be done by me." As he spoke, he bowed to Tang Ling and said, "Your Majesty, Weichen thinks that the young secretary of the financial government, Lord Yanqing Yan is qualified for this position. β
Yanqing, the young secretary of the financial government, is Cai Hongying's husband, and Cai Hongying is Cai Xiao's niece, saying a thousand things and ten thousand, and Yanqing is also Cai's family.
If others heard Cai Xiao say this, they might not dare to say anything, but Gan Ping is a hard bone, and even Shangguan Xiu dares to do it, let alone Cai Xiao?
Hearing that the person recommended by Cai Xiao was Yanqing, Gan Ping almost laughed out loud and said: "Yanqing is only a gentleman, and it is reluctant to serve as a young secretary in the finance government, and I am afraid that it will not take three months to serve as the minister of finance in the governor's palace, and the finance department will be in chaos." With such a recommendation that has brought disaster to the country and the people, Lord Cai should not mention it to His Majesty!"
"You ......" Cai Xiao was almost so angry that he turned his back on it.
Tang Ling laughed out loud, she liked Gan Ping's outspokenness, there was only government affairs in her eyes, no one was sophisticated, and no one talked about her feelings. She nodded and said, "According to Ganqing's opinion, I am right. From now on, Lord Jun will temporarily serve as the secretary of the Ministry of Finance, and Lord Jian, the deputy envoy of the Ministry of Finance, will be promoted to the minister of finance, and the deputy envoy of the Ministry of Finance will ...... Gan Qing will recommend another virtuous person!" As she spoke, she looked at Shangguan Xiu again and asked, "What does Aiqing think?"
Before Shangguan Xiu could speak, Gan Ping knelt down and said loudly: "Your Majesty Shengming! It is the blessing of the wind and the blessing of all the people!"
Shangguan Xiu glanced at Gan Ping, owed to Tang Ling, and said, "The minister seconded the proposal." β
If Jun Shengnan could be as talented as Peng Zhuo, Shangguan Xiu would keep him no matter what, but Jun Shengnan's performance was really disappointing, if he continued to protect him, it would seem that he was afraid of the Jun family.
For the Jun family, Shangguan Xiu only has to use and not use, and there is never an element of fear and fear.
The ministers of the Governor's Palace, the two positions of Minister of Agriculture and Minister of Finance alone, have already made the Imperial Court of the Wind Kingdom quarrel and impeach each other, and the fierce competition for the candidates of the other ministers can also be imagined.
