In the Qianqing Palace, it has reached the time of the early dynasty, Wang Chengen stands on one side, Chongzhen sits in the middle, wearing a black gauze wing crown on his head, wearing a vermilion five-clawed golden dragon wearing a flower red arrow sleeve, tied with a colorful silk flower knot long spike palace silk, covered with a stone blue flower eight groups of forging row tassel gowns, and wearing a small court boot with a blue satin and white bottom. Looking at the prince in front of him, Chongzhen was absolutely relieved about this henchman eunuch who had learned that he would follow him until death in later generations, but looking at the Manchu Dynasty civil and military forces below, he still had a headache now, and he didn't know who could use it and who couldn't.

In any case, the current situation is much better than that of Chongzhen three years later, at least now, it is still a relatively stable situation, and many things still have time to change.

At this time, Wang Chengen shouted at the side: "There is a morning play, but there is no retreat."

Yang Suoxiu, the deputy capital of the Imperial Procuratorate, went out of the class and said: "Long live Qiyu, the minister has this music, the minister impeached Cui Chengxiu, the secretary of the military department, Chen Yin, the young secretary of the Taifu Temple, Zhu Tongmeng, the governor of the department, and Li Yangde, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry."

At this time, Mingsheng (Chongzhen) looked down at Yang Suoxiu and said, "What did these four people do, Aiqing can come one by one." ”

"Long live, the parents of these four people have passed away, but they have not returned home to keep filial piety, which is not in line with filial piety."

This is a very reasonable reason, Zhang Juzheng was half-dead by this incident, and it is very interesting to use this method to come out with the fourth small fish and shrimp.

The first shot to deal with the eunuch party was finally fired by Yang Suoxiu, because these four people are the backbone of the eunuch party, and they are also Wei Zhongxian's number one horse, in fact, after Yang Lian and Zuo Guangdou died, basically there are very few cases where eunuchs are openly impeached in this kind of hall, these four people are corrupt and bribery, do all kinds of evil, and the handles are all over the street, but Yang Suoxiu just mentioned the crime of unfilial piety.

The civil and military forces in the city were silent at this time, although when the shallow dragon, His Royal Highness the King of the Letter sincerely showed his hatred for the eunuchs, but at this time and at that time. There is a way that the holy monarch is unpredictable, who knows what kind of actions the emperor will have? The ministers all pinched a cold sweat, and they didn't dare to speak out.

The four Cui Chengxiu, who were impeached, also staggered out of the ranks of worshippers, calling for the emperor to be clear, and the ministers knelt on the ground if they were guilty, so as to see the attitude of Emperor Chongzhen.

Emperor Chongzhen raised his eyes and looked at Yang Suoxiu, if he remembered correctly, this Yang Suoxiu was also a member of the eunuch party, and the impeachment of Cui Chengxiu should be to see one of his attitudes.

Well, since you want to see my attitude, then I will show you my own attitude.

Thinking of this, Chongzhen Longyan was furious and said, "Four, what Yang Suoxiu said just now is true? ”

Chen Yin, the young secretary of Taifu Temple, said directly: "Long live Hui, although it is true, it can ...... But the minister does have a hard time, and I hope Your Majesty will learn from it. ”

"It's good if it's true, I don't want to hear the story now, don't you know that returning to your hometown to keep filial piety is a big deal, like you and other people who despise the law and discipline and have no parents, what's the use of keeping you? Come on, put a few of them in the prison of the Criminal Department, and wait for disposal. ”

After Emperor Chongzhen gave the order, several Han generals came in and directly escorted the four out of the door, and the four shouted wronged, but none of the other eunuch members dared to come forward to plead. Who would have thought that the master on the dragon chair was not playing cards according to common sense at all, it seems that this is not a good signal, and the eunuch is going to be cool.

At this time, Lu Chengyuan, the director of the Ministry of Works, saw this and immediately went out to play: "Wait, Your Majesty, the minister also has this performance." ”

Emperor Chongzhen glanced at Lu Chengyuan in surprise, in his memory, this Lu Chengyuan did not belong to the eunuchs, could it be that he wanted to speak for them at this time?

thought so in his heart, but he still pretended to be calm and said: "Aiqing can just have a book."

Lu Chengyuan said calmly: "If the minister wants to impeach Yang Suo, it is suspected of bullying the king." Cui Chengxiu, the secretary of the Ministry of War, Chen Yin, the Shaoqing of the Taifu Temple, Zhu Tongmeng, the governor of the Ministry of Industry, and Li Yangde, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, committed the crime of not only "Ding Wei", these people formed a party for personal gain, corruption and bribery, Yang Suoxiu himself and these four people are the same hill, and several people are friendly with Wei Zhongxian, the former eunuch of the inner court.

Before the words fell, Qian Yuanyu, the director of the Ministry of Officials, also came out and said, "The minister seconded the proposal, please let Your Majesty know it." ”

"The minister seconded the proposal". This is the voice of Shi Gongsheng, a member of the staff.

Emperor Chongzhen's eagle-like gaze swept over the ministers, and the ministers all lowered their heads, everyone was in danger, for fear of involving themselves.

At this time, Chongzhen's heart was still quite entangled, and he originally wanted to take these unlucky eggs first and temporarily beat the "eunuchs" first, but it was a little difficult to involve Wei Laogou this time. After all, he is just in the position, if he deals with it too radically, it is easy to force Wei Gelding to jump off the wall in a hurry, except for the British public Zhang Weixian, there are still relatively few people available to him, which is a bit difficult to do!

Thinking of this, Chongzhen said slowly: "Aiqing's words are wrong, the emperor often said that Gonggong Wei is the minister of the humerus, after all, he is in the position of a eunuch with a pen, and it is normal for him to have occasional government affairs with courtiers, so this matter must not be a big fuss, but whether these people are forming a party for personal purposes needs to be investigated." As he spoke, he turned to Cui Chengxiu and the others and said directly: "Take it to the prison of the Criminal Department and wait for investigation and disposal!" ”

Cui Chengxiu and the others were like ashes, and the eight Han generals escorted a few people down again.

At this time, Yang Suoxiu was extremely frightened, and he regretted that he had promised the nine thousand years old to make a reaction to test His Majesty, and he would have to fold it in if he didn't make it well.

"Yang Suoxiu, I ask you, is what Master Lu said true?" The cold voice of Emperor Chongzhen floated in the main hall.

"Back to Your Majesty, the minister has been wronged" said and kowtowed to the ground like pounding garlic.

"Your matter will have its own public opinion after the investigation is clear, I will not send you to prison today, but you should not be too happy too early, if you really have a party and a private business, you will not be able to escape."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." The stone in Yang's heart finally fell to the ground, at least today's life was saved.

"Your Majesty, ......" Qian Yuanyu saw Emperor Chongzhen pick it up and put it down gently, and was just about to raise a voice to question when he was interrupted.

"Okay, I'm tired, let's do this first, retreat."

After Chongzhen returned to the imperial study, he circled around the imperial case twice, and smashed a Ruyao teacup from the former Song Dynasty. Seeing this, Wang Chengen took the two little eunuchs to kneel directly on the ground and shouted: "Master, you are angry!" It doesn't matter if you drop some objects, you have to take care of your dragon body! ”

Chongzhen, who calmed down, looked at Wang Chengen and said, "I know Wang Daban, you all step down, I want to be alone." ”

"Okay master, the old slave is waiting outside the palace, just tell me something." Saying that, Wang Chengen withdrew from the imperial study with two little eunuchs.

Damn, being the emperor is not free! Chongzhen remembered that in his previous life, he had to look at the face of the leader, to see the face of the customer, and he had never been able to do things according to his own preferences, but now that he is the emperor, he can't do whatever he wants, and even when the minister impeached Wei Zhongxian, he had to help him cover it up, damn, I hate this feeling, I must purge the government as soon as possible, if the emperor does not have absolute rights, then what does the emperor mean!
