The reason why Zhu Qiyu was surprised was because he wanted to take the lead, and he thought that no one should compete with him, but there was more than one.

Since Yongle in the early dynasty, when the role of the cabinet has increased, it has long been not the early dynasty of Taizu's time, and the form is greater than the practical significance.

When Zhu Qizhen first came back, the picture was fresh, and it was not so fake. It's just that with a trip to Guangdong, I have lost patience with the early dynasty, not only to find a reason not to be able to do it, but also to leave early.

Therefore, Zhu Qiyu wanted to take advantage of the enthusiasm at the beginning, and quickly said his thoughts, don't wait until Zhu Qizhen is tired of listening, and then go to the palace to make trouble.

But with Yu Qian and Hu Hu, the two important ministers of the court, speaking in front of him, the prince himself, could only slow down a little, and depending on what they were going to say, it was too long, and he had to use the privileges of the prince.

Zhu Qizhen also wondered, he was in a hurry just now, and his brain was still a little confused at this time, so he summoned Jin Ying to his ear and asked, "What's going on?" ”

Jin Ying couldn't wait to slap herself a few times, why did she forget to tell the emperor about business, and hurriedly said respectfully: "Your Majesty, the slave should die, it must be because of Wujin Bo Zhu Ying." ”

"Zhu Ying? Oh, that's right, this Yu Qian is in charge of the military department and the Beijing camp, and Zhu Ying is also under his control, is he dissatisfied with Zhu Ying being given to death? Zhu Qizhen said to himself.

Jin Ying naturally heard it and hurriedly said: "The slave should die, in fact, Zhu Ying did not commit suicide yesterday, but led the troops out of Beijing overnight." ”

"Huh?" Zhu Qizhen was stunned, and turned to look at Yu Qian, what is this Lord trying to do?

"Yu Qian, you can say it first." Although Zhu Qizhen was puzzled, he trusted Yu Qian more after all, so he gave the initiative.

"Emperor Xie!" Yu Qian's heart was relieved and he bowed respectfully.

"Your Majesty, the minister received a report from Guizhou yesterday that the rebel seedlings in Guizhou have already shown signs of fleeing to Sichuan, and at that time, across the two provinces, the difficulty of exterminating them will be greatly increased.

The minister ordered Wu Jin Bo Zhu Ying to lead the third army to exterminate it overnight, so as to test the combat strength of the new army from the actual battle. Yu Qian said.

Hu Hui looked sideways, the junior who was pushed to the front of the stage by himself a few months ago can now compete with him.

He will protect the people he wants to kill, the nobles he wants to weaken, and even the traitors who smuggle bad laws.

Can rights really make such a big difference? Or he Yu Qian, it has always been like this.

"Your Majesty, the minister Hu Hu impeached Yu Qian and Zhu Ying, and the two colluded with each other to violate laws and disciplines.

Zhu Ying embezzled official money and harmed the people, Yu Qian bent the law for personal gain, privately let Zhu Ying out of Beijing, and led the army, which is simply a rebellion against open fire! ”

After Yu Qian finished speaking, Zhu Qizhen knew that something was wrong, and couldn't help glaring at Jin Ying a few times and said, "Did you deliver my things?" ”

Jin Ying secretly complained and hurriedly said: "How dare the emperor's orders be slack, the slaves and maids have indeed been handed over to Zhu Ying yesterday." But ......"

"Say!"

"However, during the emperor's dinner yesterday, Lord Yu brought Mrs. Wu Jin to meet him, but the emperor was ...... at that time Therefore, Lord Yu failed to enter the palace, presumably to report the emergency military situation. Kim Young-do.

Zhu Qizhen glanced at Jin Ying coldly, okay, even Yu Qian will be good friends with the eunuch? Or did you old thing deliberately whitewash Yu Qian in front of me in order to curry favor with him?

Zhu Qizhen didn't think about it, in fact, he didn't want to kill Zhu Ying at the beginning, although Yu Qian didn't ask for his consent and let Zhu Ying out of Beijing without permission, but it can be regarded as a heart, Zhu Qizhen gritted his back molars to comfort himself.

"Since the military situation is urgent, it is natural to focus on military affairs, and those subordinates are unwilling to go to suppress the thieves, causing the rebels to flee, and someone must clean up the mess.

Hu Hui impeached Zhu Ying, then wait for him to come back from the thief, and then deal with it. Zhu Qizhen took Hu Hui's former subordinates and tried to see if he could block the old man's mouth.

Sure enough, it didn't work

Hu Hui said: "The minister and Li Kan just met the saint yesterday, so Zhu Ying was able to get the news and lead the troops out of Beijing in advance. Your Majesty, the minister took Xiang Shang's head as a guarantee, and he absolutely did not reveal any news to anyone! ”

Li Kan also appeared at the right time, knelt on the ground and swore to the sky: "The minister has not revealed any news to anyone, please let the emperor know!" ”

Although no evidence has been produced yet, the two second-grade ministers, plus one Wu Jinbo, have already shocked the court, and the ministers of the early court were frightened and speculated about the reason.

And Shi Biao, who had just run back to the capital not long ago, couldn't stop breaking out in a cold sweat on his face, did he wipe it with his sleeve, and suddenly regretted that he rushed back from Datong.

Zhu Qizhen looked at Hu Hu, isn't this sentence

said: Either there is a traitor around me who leaks the news, or I shield Wu Jinbo.

This Hu Hu is really brave.

"Hu Aiqing, you are thinking too much, it is all for the sake of the Ming Dynasty, what is wrong.

You said that Zhu Ying is bad, and I didn't see any empirical evidence yesterday, but in this early dynasty, since there is such a statement, it should be decided when there is clear evidence.

If it is true, no matter whether he is leading troops or not, as long as he is in my Ming Dynasty, he will not be able to escape the sanctions of national law no matter what. ”

When Li Kan heard this, he took out a fold from his body, held it high above his head and said: "Your Majesty, Li Kan in the matter of the minister's household department, impeached Wu Jinbo Zhu Ying and Datong Du Shi Biao:

embezzlement of official money, reselling grain and grass to the Tartars, raising thieves outside, with ill intentions! Shi Biao even connived at his family members to occupy people's property, and also recruited more than 50 homeless families to cross the border without authorization and set up manors to reclaim people's land. ”

Shi Biao's legs shook, just now when he heard about the embezzlement of official money, he knew that he would inevitably be implicated, and at this time, listening to Li Kan's words, he really covered himself.

Shi Biao trembled his legs, and hurriedly came out to cry out: "Your Majesty, the minister has always been loyal to the country and guarded the border, and I don't want to be slandered by this malice today, please ask the emperor to be the master of the minister, the minister's patriotic heart can be seen from the sun and the moon, the emperor!" ”

Zhu Qizhen glanced at Shi Biao, this bull, ghost, snake and god dared to jump out and say that he was patriotic.

casually flipped through Lieberthal's recital, and as I said yesterday, although the evidence is there, it is still a little thin.

"Li Kan, although there is evidence of the two of them embezzling official silver, there is no evidence of reselling grain and grass and Tartars. Zhu Qizhen asked.

Before Li Kan could answer, Zhu Qizhen heard a loud voice in his ears: "Enlighten the emperor, minister Yunnan Provincial Supervision Imperial History Zhang Kui, impeach Shi Biao and Zhu Ying, raise your own respect, please ask the emperor to judge!" ”

Look at that Zhang Kui's face, it is the dark shadow of the pretending to be a grain transport team member that night.

Zhu Qizhen took the evidence forwarded by Jin Ying, a book of songs, a few pieces of library silver, and some gold and silver artifacts engraved with Mongolian imprints.

Who, when, where, and how long did he buy how much grain, and how long did he deal with the defenders of the passes, and finally how he traded with the Tartars, as if he had experienced it himself, and the real hammer had already fallen.

"Bastard!" Zhu Qizhen shouted angrily, and his eyes fell on Shi Biao like a knife.
