Xijiang Rice Lane, the Yamen of the Criminal Department.

Unlike the six yamen, which sit east and face west, the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Households, the Yamen of the Criminal Department, which sits on the west side of the central axis of the Forbidden City, sits west and faces east, adjacent to the Metropolitan Procuratorate and Dali Temple.

The officials of the capital are a huge network of contacts, and they move around each other very frequently.

Since the Ministry of Works' waiter has to be filled by the court push again, the next step is to carry out the Jiuqing court push.

Although Jiuqing Tingtui said that everyone wanted to vote together, there have always been several leaders in the civil official group, and almost every court tui has resolved it privately.

Of course, they will all follow the rules of the Ming Dynasty of the Game of Thrones, and many times they will hand over more than two lists to the emperor and let the emperor make the final ruling.

If the Emperor had chosen their preferred choice instead of their preferred choice, then there would have been no dispute between their factions, and they would have calmly accepted the end, and their civil clique would have to give His Majesty a little power in personnel.

After Ni Yue, the left attendant of the Ministry of Rites, conveyed the candidate of the Ministry of Works, he said seriously: "Da Sikou, the demon Li Zi Province has been convicted by the imperial court, and the officials of the Ke Dao Yan have already impeached Li Yu recommended by Li Zi Province. Once there is a vacancy in the official department, when the virtuous person is in a high position, we will work together to promote Wang Shu. ”

"This matter should be like this, Wang Shu is my first minister of the Ming Dynasty, and he can take this important responsibility!" Du Ming knew that Qingliu needed to set an example who was not afraid of imperial power, so he nodded lightly.

Ni Yue saw that the business had been discussed, and said mysteriously: "Xiaguan just heard the news from the palace, although it is incredible, but I am afraid that it will not be far from ten!" ”

"I want to hear about it!" Du Ming knew that Ni Yue had a friendship with Huai'en, and the township party of Nanzhili did have connections in the palace, so he picked up the tea cup and said with interest.

Ni Yue waved his hand to let his servant look outside to look at the wind, and then he revealed seriously: "Yesterday in Qingning Palace, Your Majesty has promised to give the treasure land of Baodi to Qingyun Hou, it is a fertile land!" ”

"Huh...... His Majesty's temperament is too soft, and he really agreed to Qingyunhou's reward! Du Ming took a sip of tea and couldn't help but look down on Zhu Youzhi a little.

Ni Yue was upset about Zhu Youji's cancellation of the throne, so he belittled him with oil and vinegar: "It's not just soft, it's just confused!" No one knew that it was a fertile land, and even the Duke of England and the Duke of Dingguo had already taken it in mind, but they didn't expect to give Qingyun Hou a head start. Now that His Majesty has given that piece of land to Qingyun Hou, the people must be complaining, even if they don't dare to say it in their mouths, can they still think that he is a Ming Jun in their hearts? ”

"I heard earlier that Qingyun Marquis was going to ask for a gift in the name of tax-free land, I'm afraid that Your Majesty was also in the dark, and didn't know that it was a fertile land!" Du Ming thought of the young emperor who was born and grew up in the palace, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise slightly.

Why not eat minced meat, this is not just a joke of Emperor Jin Hui.

Zhu Youzhu was born in the palace, and the person who raised him was the scheming Empress Dowager Zhou, even if she got married and lived in the prince's mansion, she didn't dare to step out of the prince's mansion to play outside.

However, he is full of etiquette and filial piety, and he has great respect for the Empress Dowager Zhou, and he is also filial to Emperor Chenghua, and he is also an obedient and good student to several teachers.

Although Zhu Youji's ascension to the throne has exposed the authoritarian nature, his vision is already here, and he must not be able to toss much wind and waves, and he has to be manipulated by them, who have read the books of sages and experienced officialdom struggles.

Ni Yue, as a minister, did not have much contact with Zhu Youji, but he still said disparagingly: "What the Great Sikou said is also reasonable, Your Majesty has lived in the palace since he was a child, and how did he know that people's hearts are sinister and greedy. It's just that if such a matter had been handled by the first emperor, he would definitely not be so confused! ”

"It's the same way, the first emperor has a clear judgment when he encounters things!" Du Ming thought of the various actions of Emperor Chenghua during his reign, especially through the eunuchs who stretched their eyes and ears out of the palace, and also put down the teacup and nodded in agreement.

Ni Yue saw that Du Ming frequently recognized himself, and said as if he had found a soulmate: "Your Majesty actually has to blame himself for this matter!" If they attach importance to our important ministers and consult with our ministers more in case of trouble, instead of staying in the Qianqing Palace every day and not seeing the important ministers, how can they be so fooled by Ying Yunhou? It's good now, Qingyunhou has benefited, His Majesty has been infamous by the people, and this world cannot be governed by our scholars! ”

"Today, the virtuous ministers are full of courts, Your Majesty has to reuse a guilty minister, and even vainly tries to remove the crime for Wang Yue, which is really incomprehensible and unreasonable!" Du Ming thought of the dispute in Wang Yue's case, and also expressed his indignation.

Ni Yue heard the strings and knew the elegance, and even said complimentarily: "Fortunately, the great priest is in charge of the criminal constitution, and the traitor can be stopped!" Today, the Ming Dynasty abides by the law, and the officials and people of the capital are all called the great priest Kou upright, and the history of the Qing Dynasty must also leave the name of Du Gongxian! ”

"This official is not a person who values fame and fortune! As long as this official is still in charge of the Criminal Department, His Majesty will not be allowed to remove the guilt of that criminal minister, but His Majesty is probably going to regard this official as a thorn in his side now! Du Ming naturally knew that his praise was soaring, but he was still worried.

Ni Yue didn't know what Du Ming was thinking, so he smiled and said: "Today, the important ministers of the Manchu Dynasty do not agree with Your Majesty's resumption of Wang Yue, even if Your Majesty wants to dismiss the Great Priest, then there must be a reason, otherwise the ministers will be on the edict!" Take 10,000 steps back and say, even if you really ignore the obstruction of the Manchu ministers and insist on the big Si Kou, the big Si Kou is my Ming Dynasty's direct minister after Wang Shu, and he will return to the place to be supported by the squire, and he should also be courteous to the heavenly officials when he returns to the court! ”

When Du Ming heard the words "Heavenly Official", he couldn't help but swallow and spit at the mouth, this was a high position that he had never thought of fingering, but at this moment, the door of Tianmen seemed to be opening to him.

"Huh...... The lower official had to ask His Majesty to reopen the feast, so he retired first! Ni Yue looked outside that it was already afternoon, and said goodbye with a smile.

"Okay, this official will send you!" Du Ming knew that the next step would definitely be to pick up Zhou Hongmo's position, and he also got up to see him off in person.

Ni Yue is tall, standing up a head taller than Du Ming, and he enjoys this feeling of superiority, but he refused to send Du Ming when he was in the second gate.

Du Ming thought that he gave up Wan'an and hugged Xu Pu's thigh, judging from the current situation, it was really "Sai Weng lost his horse, and he was not blessed".

At this moment, there was a rush of footsteps in the courtyard outside, and someone seemed to have a conflict with his guard, and immediately walked out dissatisfied.

Du Ming, who was wearing a second-grade official uniform, condescendingly saw the menacing fanzi, and immediately scolded: "What do you Dongchang people want to do? Is there still a royal law in your eyes, who gave you the courage to break into the yamen of the criminal department? ”

"Du Shangshu, don't yell here, please go with the miscellaneous family!" Guo Yong appeared here with Buddha dust in his hand, speaking softly.

Du Ming's brows frowned slightly, and he said disdainfully: "What about your factory supervisor Li Rong?" You are so lawless, I have to ask you factory supervisors or not! ”

"Just now, His Majesty issued an edict to let Li Rong go to Fengyang to guard the mausoleum, and now he should go out of Zhengyang Gate!" Guo Yong recalled Li Rong's unbelievable expression just now, and the corners of his mouth pouted with a trace of disdain.

Du Ming didn't expect Li Rong to be removed by the emperor, and immediately thought of the head of the inner court and said, "What about Father-in-law Huaien?" If Father-in-law Huai'en knew about this, you would not be allowed to do such nonsense! ”

"Father-in-law Huai is the palm seal of the celebrant supervisor, and he can't control the affairs of Dongchang now!" Guo Yong knew that Huaien had a lot to do with these officials, but he said lightly.

Maybe Li Rong can still follow Huai'en's instructions, but he has been following Zhu Youzhu for a while, and he doesn't know that it is just a grasshopper after the autumn.

Du Ming realized that there had been a major change in the inner court, but he still said stubbornly: "What do you want to do, this official has always done things above board, what is the crime?" ”

"You wrote this poem?" Guo Yong showed a piece of paper from his arms and asked lightly.

Du Ming saw that what he was looking at was just a poem he had written for his deceased mother in order to show his filial piety, and immediately snorted coldly: "Hehe...... Who in the Manchu Dynasty today doesn't know that His Majesty wants to revive Wang Yue, but Wang Yue writes poems and hopes that the world will know it. ”

"Then you take it and take a good look, the poems on it are not light, so as not to end up stealing the family and exterminating the clan without knowing it!" Guo Yong handed the poem over and reminded him kindly.

Du Ming said this by Guo Yong, that is, he took the poem and reread it carefully, and when he read "The North Building Cup of the First Month", but the next sentence could not be read, and the whole person felt a chill.

"Take it away!" Guo Yong's face was straight, and he waved his hand.

Du Ming was already so frightened that he sat on the ground, and when he was dragged away by the two fans, he hurriedly begged: "I want to see Your Majesty!" I want to see Your Majesty! ”
