As soon as Zhu Youzhen spoke, Cheng Jiming, Mao Shilong and others all changed their faces.

It was unimaginable that things had come to this point.

If Jinyiwei is really allowed to investigate, I don't know how many people will be implicated, it will be an earthquake.

Many people glared at Wen Tiren angrily, eager to devour this flattering emperor guy alive!

"Your Majesty, you still need to be cautious in this matter." Huang Liji sighed secretly, knowing that he could no longer watch the fire from the other side.

"Oh?" Zhu Youzhen smiled, "What is Yuanfu's opinion?" ”

"There are a lot of rumors like this every year, and if they are investigated, it will really cost the people and money, and I am afraid that it will make people panic. In the opinion of the old minister, there is no need for the court to pay attention. Huang Liji said slowly.

"Yes, Your Majesty, what Yuan Fu said is very true, and the ministers seconded it." Some ministers also spoke.

"But many people impeach Mr. Li with rumors, if they don't investigate, won't Mr. Li be wronged?" Wen Tiren said with a smile.

Huang Liji glanced at Wen Tiren deeply: "Impeachment without evidence, don't pay attention to it." ”

As soon as this sentence came out, it could be regarded as a termination talisman for this matter, and Cheng Jiming pursed his lips for a moment, and finally stopped talking.

As a result, the various factions in the court reached a consensus and gave up attacking Li Yanzhi, and the Donglin Party and officials who had ties with the Fujian faction also admitted defeat.

But how can things pass so easily?

Zhu Youzhen said expressionlessly: "Yuanfu is right, the rumors are not credible. In this case, from now on, no one is allowed to impeach on the basis of rumors! ”

One sentence is tantamount to depriving the imperial historians of the right to impeach. Zhu Youzhen has had a profound reflection, believing that in the previous life, the reason why the party struggle was so serious, the court was in turmoil all day long, and the ministers only knew that there was no psychological matter in the struggle for power, which had a great deal to do with the impeachment system.

The Inspectorate's hundreds of imperial histories, plus dozens of six departments to give things, all have the right to impeach in rumors, and as long as there is dissatisfaction with anything, they can be relieved of the last wave. Officials who are impeached are generally suspended from their posts pending investigation.

All factions of the imperial court have these imperial histories, and when attacking political opponents, these imperial histories are all pawns, and then other officials come on the field to argue, and at first they can talk about things, and then attack purely for the sake of attacking.

According to the rumors, you can be impeached, and if the impeachment is successful, it is easy to be promoted, and for the sake of interests, these imperial histories naturally ignore it, and they are like mad dogs for the sake of interests.

The imperial court is mired in such endless party strife all day long, where is there time to get down to business?

Zhu Youzhen naturally doesn't like many mad dog-like imperial histories, and today he naturally wants to take the opportunity to deprive them of his rights.

"Your Majesty, the right to have rumors in the imperial history is the ancestral system." Many imperial historians stood up and said one after another.

"I don't deprive you of your power, but I don't allow you to bite without limits." Zhu Youzhen angrily reprimanded, "After the news, the first thing you have to do is to investigate, look for evidence, find evidence and then impeach, instead of casually listening to someone else's gossip and rushing to bite someone!" If that's the case, why do I need you? Wouldn't it be nice to have some mastiffs! ”

"Inspectorate, it's time to put things in order! I will make a rule today, when I impeach in the future, there must be evidence, and if it is falsely accused, I will be held accountable according to the size of the matter. Zhu Youzhen said.

"Your Majesty, but if that's the case, the imperial historians are afraid of being held accountable, I'm afraid they will lose their enthusiasm, and if everyone keeps silent, the Inspectorate will lose its meaning." Cao Sicheng, the imperial historian of the Zuo Capital, sighed and said to Zhu Youzhen.

Zhu Youzhen said disapprerovingly: "Isn't there an assessment task, and those who can't complete it will be dismissed and demoted." Thirteen imperial histories, each of them has their own piece of responsibility, do a good job of things within your responsibilities, so many things in the country, if you check carefully, how can you not complete the assessment? But many people don't do their jobs properly and focus on places that they shouldn't be in charge of!

For example, in the affairs of Fujian, there are Fujian Inspectors and Imperial Historians outside, and there are ten Fujian Provincial Imperial Historians in Beijing, and these people can naturally impeach this matter. But how many of the people who impeached Li Yanzhi today are Fujian Taoist imperial historians? Is this your duty? ”

Zhu Youzhen's words suddenly left Cao Sicheng speechless. In fact, many imperial histories have long been unable to distinguish their responsibilities, whether they should be in charge or not, they will rush to impeach each when they encounter things, and I don't know when this situation has begun.

"The right attendant of the Ministry of Rites, Wen Tiren, is diligent and commendable, and he has moved to the right capital of the Inspectorate, and is responsible for the assessment of the Inspectorate!" Zhu Youzhen said suddenly.

"Huh?" Wen Tiren was stunned for a moment, and suddenly became ecstatic, "Weichen thank Your Majesty!" ”

The waiter of the Ministry of Rites is the third grade, but the imperial history of the right capital is the second grade, but he stood up and said a few words for the emperor, and he was promoted two levels in a row! It's so cool!

Wen Tiren knew that after this incident, he was in the emperor's heart, Huang Liji, Shi Fenglai and others were either old or disliked by His Majesty, and he would be able to enter the cabinet sooner or later to pay respects.

Some officials looked at Wen Tiren with disdain, secretly scolding this guy who could only flatter the emperor, and more officials showed envy.

If nothing else, some officials will soon gather around Wen Tiren, and Wen Tiren will become the third force in the court, and this is what Zhu Youzhen wants.

After Huang Liji sat firmly in the first assistant, he was no longer so obedient. Shi Fenglai also has his own little abacus, although he wants to replace Huang Liji, he also wants to care about his reputation. The eunuch party can no longer count on it, and the Donglin party is all pretentious, and they will not defect to the emperor. Zhu Youzhen looked around, and could only choose to support Wen Tiren, although this guy's character and ability are really not very good.

However, the position of the first assistant cannot be given to Wen Tiren in this life, Wen Tiren's popularity is too poor and the utilitarianism is too strong, he is not a person who can do things solidly, he is only suitable for being a thug, if he is the first assistant, the court will inevitably fight even more.

Zhu Youzhen glanced at Huang Liji helplessly, forget it, let's let this guy be for a while.

Shoufu, Zhu Youzhen hopes that Hong Chengchou can do it the most, because aside from ability, Hong Chengchou is a real person of his own and knows what he wants to do. It's just that Hong Chengchou has never been an official in the court, and he doesn't have much foundation, so it is unlikely that he will suddenly become the first assistant. And now Jiannu is still a big threat, and the Xuanfu also needs someone to sit in charge.

Zhou Yanru, the left waiter of the Ministry of Rites, glanced at Wen Tiren with a complicated expression, he and Wen Tiren are one of the left waiters and the other is the right waiter, and the relationship has always been good. Xu Guangqi, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, is very old, and it is estimated that it will not take a few years to become a scholar, according to the normal process, he will definitely be the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, and Wen Tiren will also be postponed as the left waiter, the Ministry of Rites has always been called the prime minister, and it is inevitable to enter the cabinet, maybe the two of them can both enter the cabinet, which is a matter of time or time.

And now, Wen Tiren has chosen another path, and Zhou Yanru doesn't know whether to be happy for him.

"If there is something to start, there is nothing to retreat!" Wang Chengen shouted at the top of his voice.

Gong Yonggu, who had been watching the play, reacted suddenly and hurriedly walked out of the train: "Gong Yong, the minister and the horse, is the captain. ”
