Chapter 97, the Cabinet First Auxiliary Acting Award (ask for the first order)
The Son of Heaven can't back down, can't bow his head?
That's a lie to children and fools.
Throughout the ages, which emperor has been able to do everything as he wishes and carry out every idea?
It shouldn't be like that, because people always make mistakes.
In this regard, Zhu Houxi is fully conscious.
But Yang Ting and their demands were unfair.
"Since I have already conquered the extreme, I can't be ignorant of the situation, and I can't be unfair." Zhu Houxi looked at Wang Qiong and the others, "Elder Yang Ge, I have already understood, the water in the court is so dirty. If you want to be tried, I don't know how many people will be spared, is this the situation? But the state affairs are complicated, and no one can be left alone. Pull out the radish and bring out the mud, the more you check, the more you check, the same is true for those who are promoted below, and the water in the place is naturally more turbid. Or pretend not to see, reluctantly make up, frame it here, paste it there, whitewash the peace, do you want me to do the same? ”
The pastemaker's hat reappeared, but Yang Tinghe did not refute it.
The reality is cruel, but it is indeed the reality, just as it is unrealistic to easily change the law.
If you can't get by, then you can't get by.
You see, it's going to be tough before it even begins.
"I still remember the first time I looked at the court, I asked Yang Ge Lao with the laughter of the people, and Yang Ge Lao said that it was a foolish and ignorant remark. Now it seems that the eyes of the people are bright. ”
Zhu Houxi looked up at the door, his tone calm and indifferent.
Yang Tinghe's face changed: The emperor is naturally talking about it now, and all the officials are pulled out, and they will not be wronged if they cut one another. How appropriate is it to say it at this time?
But under today's circumstances, he asked the emperor not to continue the trial, doesn't it prove that he was lying and deceiving the emperor that day?
"If hundreds of officials are guilty or not, they should check according to the law." Zhu Houxi didn't stop, "This is also what Yang Ge Lao said that day." Now I am following Yang Ge's advice, because the courtiers were implicated in the case of Qian Ning and Jiang Bin, and I want to check whether Jiang Bin's confession is indeed true, and Yang Ge Lao advised me to close the case. ”
At this moment, Yang Tinghe finally remembered the internal file division.
What is said, what is right, what the ministers are saying on all things, and the internal file division must record it.
Yang Tinghe is the first assistant, and his words and deeds are naturally the top priority.
In front of this Son of Heaven, don't say a word wrong. If so, what is the reason?
Zhu Houxi lowered his head, squatted down, still holding Liang Chu's resignation sheet in his hand, and asked sincerely: "Elder Yang Ge, which advice should I listen to?" ”
Yang Tinghe's forehead was sweating, and he was speechless.
"Is the Ming Statute a joke? Is it a joke for your subordinates to advise? Is it a joke? ”
The Son of Heaven is out of order, how can he squat and talk to his courtiers?
Yang Tinghe raised his head and saw the sincere gaze of the Son of Heaven.
His eyes were indeed sincere.
It's not sarcasm, it's not anger, it seems to be just doubts, just the confusion of young people.
But the sharpness in the words is as cold as a sharp blade.
If the laws of the Ming Dynasty are a joke, where will the court rule be in the future?
If it is a joke for the Son of Heaven to advise and the Son of Heaven to admonish, will the Son of Heaven still listen to the opinions of his subordinates and listen to his Yang Tinghe's opinions in the future?
The cold air ran down his back from Yang Tinghe's head, and Yang Tinghe finally understood that the emperor must insist on the trial, where to stay.
It's just that your words and deeds are inconsistent with Yang Tinghe!
Why do you pretend to be serious about the country and don't want the court to be turbulent?
The cabinet ministers walked one, and Jiuqing walked three, which is not called turmoil. Do you have to go more people, or go your own people, to call it turmoil?
It's up to you to define things, and it's up to you to draw the line?
Standards, where exactly are they?
Can you qualify and draw lines, or you will do it this day?
“…… Your Majesty! The Ming Dynasty has strict laws, how can it be a joke? Advice and admonition, the holy king, how can it be a joke? Yang Tinghe couldn't continue this cognitive attitude anyway, he could only bow his head at this moment as if he had admitted his mistake, "The minister knows that the minister's words and deeds are different from those of the day, so that His Majesty has this doubt. However, the weight of state affairs and the knot of all difficulties change from time to time, and at this time, His Majesty wants to investigate the situation in detail, and it is by no means the only way to deal with this case. The lesser of two evils, Your Majesty, in this case, the turbidity of the Ming Dynasty and the character of distinguishing hundreds of officials are really not the best choice. ”
Before Zhu Houxi could speak, Yuan Zonggao finally stood up and said coldly with his weight: "You can't distinguish the character of a hundred officials because of this case, but Liang Daxue, Wang Datianguan, Yang Dasinong, Chen Dazongxian and others are all found to have solid evidence, and they are not among them?" The difference is only in whether there is evidence or not. ”
Emperor Daxing's respect has been decided, the palace test has been completed, and Yuan Zonggao is only one nod away from entering the cabinet.
Liang Chu has already confirmed that he is leaving the court today, and Yuan Zonggao may enter the court tomorrow.
The old ministers of the Qiandi and the newcomers to the cabinet, Yuan Zonggao's weight is incomparable.
Yang Tinghe replied in a deep voice: "Since there is solid evidence, how can we turn a blind eye? ”
"Now that there is solid evidence, the Great Heavenly Official is ashamed of his trust in His Majesty, and he has already resigned." Yuan Zonggao's lips were hidden under his gray beard, and the words he spit out pierced people's hearts, "Your Zuozhu Guoyang University Scholar thinks that his words and deeds are inconsistent, as the head of a hundred officials, he acts like this, and he only wants His Majesty to judge the situation because of the importance of state affairs and the knot of all difficulties due to the times. How does Your Majesty know? ”
Zhu Houxi looked at Yuan Zonggao, who looked indifferent.
This time, Yan Song knelt out first, Jiang Mian expressed his attitude, Prince Liang and Wang Qiong first used retreat as a knife, and then Yuan Zonggao summarized his statement, and the contradiction was finally completely broken.
Judging the situation, how did this situation come about?
Yang Tinghe's burning fire, Yang Tinghe's artificially created time and potential.
It is true that Prince Liang, Wang Qiong and others are not clean and do not need to be entangled, but the key is, why is it no longer tried?
After crossing this line, is it not judging the situation?
Yes, the emperor is now putting on a puzzled face: Why can't I continue to interrogate and see who is clear and who is turbid in the court?
In the future, his subordinates will tell the emperor: You have crossed the line, Your Majesty?
Who has the right to interpret?
Yang Tinghe was full of grief: "Your Majesty is talented and talented, and he doesn't know everything about the world. The duty of a courtier is based on the truth. At this time, it is not suitable to go on again, set off a big case, cause chaos to the government, and ruin state affairs. If Your Majesty thinks that the minister is alarmist and insists on investigating thoroughly, and the minister has done his duty, how can the husband say anything more, how can he stop it again, how can he stop it again? If the great uncle thinks that my words and deeds are inconsistent, and it is not appropriate to be brazen in the cabinet, why should I regret it? ”
After he finished speaking, he solemnly straightened out his robe, and continued to kneel in front of Zhu Houxi with a large salute, and his head hit the floor.
The voice reflected from the floor and echoed in the lobby of the Criminal Department: "Your Majesty! The old minister admonished: Mount Tai does not move, and the rivers are sometimes. Silverfish are often mothed, and treacherous people are hard to stop. There are those who cannot be moved, such as Mount Tai for all ages; Those who wait for the time to go, such as the winter of the river and the summer flood. Water is impermanent, so the wise man is guided by the situation; The mountain is majestic, so the fool moves for a hundred years. There are priorities, and people are divided into right and wrong. Now that the bad deeds have been revealed, how can the water be collected? The good minister is doing things, how can he waste food because of choking? ”
"The Holy Son of Heaven seeks eternity, the virtuous father worries about the people, and the gains and losses are not a moment! Ministers are stupid, only for the sake of the moment; Your Majesty is wise, and you can choose meritocracy. Your Majesty wants to gain insight into the situation, this sincere and wise act; The old minister did not admonish this matter, but hoped that there was another reason. Qian Ning and Jiang Bin are ministers who plot rebellion and rebellion, and their responsibilities are very heavy! If hundreds of officials are investigated because of this case, the courtiers are greedy for merit and the officials rely on the power, and they will be like wild horses that have escaped from the leash, and they will be difficult to tame and subdue them. Such a center will cause chaos, and the Ming Dynasty will be at a loss. Internal worries together, external troubles are immediate! ”
"Your Majesty! The old minister is sixty and three, and has gone through the three dynasties of Chenghua, Hongzhi and Zhengde, and has been able to assist such as His Majesty's talent Zhuo Chengying and Wumingjun. By the grace of His Majesty, the old minister is ashamed to be listed in the Taiwan Pavilion and awarded the Zuozhu country, this body and this heart, only willing to carry the whip with the pedal, saddle before and after the horse, and see the prosperity of the new dynasty and then fast. Your Majesty's will, your minister's will! Your Majesty's worries, and so do your ministers! Now that he knows that the future is full of deep cliffs, the ministers have the courage to climb the horses and buckle the horses, and look forward to His Majesty's Mingjian! Your Majesty, road hazards! Slow down! ”
The first assistant of the cabinet was full of emotion, and tears came from the heart.
All of a sudden, it seemed that a light shone on him.
But Zhu Houxi didn't have a trophy in his hand.
I recommend another emperor's historical essay "I am the King of the Dead Country": Crossing Zhu Qiyu, and Zhu Qizhen is knocking on the door in Datong Mansion.
-- Apologies --
It's not easy for newcomers, there are still 13,000 words left, and there will be more tomorrow morning, noon and evening, and try to pull the first order.
