The second day, the pilgrimage meeting.

When Zhu Qiyu came to Fengtian Palace, he found that the crown prince Zhu Jianji had arrived in advance, sitting in a position one step lower than him, looking at the outside of the hall in a daze with an expressionless face.

Hearing Zhu Qiyu's voice, the prince didn't get up and salute.

Xing'an just wanted to remind.

Zhu Qiyu waved his hand to stop it, the two fathers and sons still have an overnight feud, the rabbit cub rarely comes to a big court meeting, don't disturb his interest, wait for the next dynasty and the two fathers and sons to drink a drink in Dongnuan Pavilion, what estrangement will not be eliminated?

Sit down and nod to Hung An.

His Royal Highness's Honglu Temple officials immediately began to sing.

Hundreds of civil and military officials are included in the palace.

Salute.

The Great Hajj begins.

Today, all officials know that there is only one thing: the impeachment of Hu Guangcheng and the announcement of the political envoy Si Zuobu and the political envoy Bai Gui.

Everything else is trivial.

Sure enough, the Metropolitan Procuratorate took the lead.

The left and right imperial Shi Xiao Weizhen and Li Shi came out at the same time, asking His Majesty to severely punish Bai Gui to set an example.

Zhu Qiyu was silent.

He wanted to drag.

dragged to Bai Gui's self-defense chapter folded into Beijing.

But how could the civilian clique let him succeed.

Except for a few princelings, including Chen Xun, Shang Shi and others, they all came out to second, asking Zhu Qiyu to immediately send down a holy decree and severely punish Bai Gui, but it was Tang's relatives, and no one said anything.

Chen Xun, Shang Lu and others were loyal to Zhu Qiyu.

But he is also a member of the civilian clique.

And these people also have small abacus, Your Majesty has always had the mind of Zen, if Your Majesty is a Zen position, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will definitely ascend the throne immediately when he reaches the age of power.

Once a son of heaven and a courtier.

When the crown prince Zhu Jianji ascends the throne, the princelings Zhang Peng, Wang Yue and others will be reused.

And Shang Chen, Chen Xun and others also had conflicts with the civil official group because of their loyalty to Zhu Qiyu before.

So they also kind of want to swap their savings.

After changing the prince, His Majesty will no longer think about the Zen position.

In another decade or two, Chen Xun, Shang Lu, Wang Wen and others will run their forces in the court, and they will become civil officials, and the king will be soft and glutinous, which will be more conducive to their future political careers.

But there is one exception.

First of all, Zhang Peng, the deputy capital of the imperial history, came out to oppose it, saying that Bai Gui, as a feudal official of the second grade of the Ming Dynasty, would be punished if he did not check it clearly, which did not comply with the rules.

Then Wang Wen seconded the proposal.

Wang Wen will soon be seventy years old.

I have been working in the position of the secretary of the criminal department for many years, and I have recently planned to return to my hometown, so I don't want to offend His Majesty and the prince, so it is harmless to express my position at this time.

Nor will the civilian clique identify him as a princeling.

Zhu Qiyu remained silent.

The ministers made a speech.

Zhang Peng couldn't support it alone, and in the end he simply stopped talking.

At the critical moment, Zhu Jianji stood up, with a gloomy face, one hand behind his back, the other hand twisted the jade pendant on his waist, and glanced at the full hall of civil and military affairs with an expressionless face.

He asked, "Is the matter of the Maori children's incursion into the Loop resolved?" ”

Everyone was stunned.

I don't know what kind of medicine is sold in the gourd of His Royal Highness the Prince.

Zhu Jianji continued: "The external troubles have not been eliminated, but the ministers are holding on to the slightest mistake of a political envoy with great achievements and disturbing the rear of the country, what is their heart? ”

Yao Kui, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, said: "The hero of the Zhaoxun Pavilion of the Song Dynasty, Zhao Pu, the Duke of Wei, once said: If you go outside, you must first settle inside." The minister thought that it was precisely because of the external troubles disturbing the border Hetao area that the country should be more peaceful, and the affairs of Huguang could not be postponed. ”

There is some truth to that.

Zhu Jianji hummed, "Yao Shangshu is reasonable, but I want to ask, Bai Guibu's political envoy has worked hard to govern Huguang, so there are mountains and rivers and Qingming people to live and work in peace and contentment, if there is no impeachment, how can there be chaos in Huguang?" ”

Huguang didn't have any.

But it is because of your impeachment of Bai Gui, if you don't deal with it, it will lead to unrest in the hearts of the people, and speaking of which, this situation was deliberately created by the Tang family's relatives and the civilian clique.

Regardless of the safety of the country, these people should be killed!

Yao Kui was not afraid, held his head high and said loudly: "Your Highness's words are wrong, the calm of Huguang is just an appearance, if the war with Maoli is in full swing, the people of Huguang will rebel because they are unbearable to the rule of Baigui's rebellion, and the chaotic people will gather and rebel, it will catch the court off guard." Now that the evidence of the crime is conclusive, as long as the culprit is quickly punished, the people will run to praise each other, why is there internal trouble, if the delay does not give the people an explanation, there will be the worry of military disaster! ”

Hula, dozens of civil officials came out at once, "The ministers seconded the proposal!" ”

Zhu Jianji sighed in his heart.

Headache.

I have to say that if the Son of Heaven wants to take one or two civil officials, it is really simple, and he can kill him for any reason, especially in the Ming Dynasty, there are no worries like the Song Dynasty, and he can kill as much as he wants.

But once the civilian-official group is united, the Son of Heaven is helpless.

Not to mention himself as a prince.

Zhu Jianji regretted it......

I knew that I should have concentrated on cultivating princelings over the years, and I would not be so passive today.

I sighed inwardly.

No way.

Turning around, he looked at Zhu Qiyu with an expressionless face, "What the ministers said is reasonable, Your Majesty, please adjudicate." ”

After saying that, I went back.

In the eyes of outsiders, he has done his best to save his future father-in-law.

It just didn't work out.

But Zhu Qiyu is a little strange.

It's not like my son's style.

Surrendered so quickly and threw in the towel?

No way!

Is the rabbit cub holding back something?

Still silent.

Anyway, Lao Tzu will not make an order, without Lao Tzu's will, which of you dares to do Bai Gui, wait for Bai Gui's self-defense chapter to come up, no matter what, some crimes also need to be verified.

It's just a degraded official.

But now that the decree has been issued, Bai Gui's sin has been confirmed, and I am afraid that it will be investigated to the end.

In this way, Bai Gui will become a criminal minister!

Affect the son's wedding.

Zhu Qiyu is also in his thirties, and he is still very excited when he thinks that he will be able to hold a big fat emperor and grandson in a few years.

But how could the civil official group and the Tang family's relatives make Zhu Qiyu happy.

Seeing that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was asking His Majesty for a ruling, all of a sudden, all of a sudden, the civil officials of the entire court, except for Zhang Peng, the deputy capital of the Imperial Palace, Wang Wen, the secretary of the Criminal Department, Li Shuang, the Langzhong of the Ministry of Households, Zhao Chunjiao, a member of the Ministry of Rites, Peng Shi, an auxiliary minister of the cabinet, Zhu Zhang, a member of the Ministry of Officials, and Xue Hui of the Ministry of War, the rest of the civil officials of the entire court were removed and knelt down, "Please Your Majesty." ”

Those who didn't kneel, Zhang Peng was the emperor's teacher.

Wang Wen has his own abacus.

The rest of Lang Zhong and Yuanwai Lang all held official positions in the East Palace Zhan Shifu.

It's kind of a princeling.

They certainly wouldn't approve of the immediate punishment of Baekyu.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has a second-rank feudal official as an old man, which is a strong and powerful arm for the East Palace, and they, the officials of the Zhan Mansion, whether they are or not, have been branded as princelings.

The key is that these people know that the position of the crown prince Zhu Jianji is unshakable, and they are now from the ministers of the dragon.

There is no need to be too deeply involved in the civilian clique.

As for what personal interests and family interests, when the crown prince ascends the throne, after they become the favored ministers of the Son of Heaven, they have the opportunity to fight for it.
