Chapter 306: The Incident Settles

"Your Majesty, Elder Yan Ge and Elder Xu Ge have arrived!"

I saw Lu Fang step into the Heart Cultivation Hall and report respectfully to Jiajing who was sitting on the dragon chair.

"Well, I know, let the two of them in!"

After listening to Lu Fang's report, Jiajing nodded and commanded.

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

After Lu Fang responded, he walked out of the Heart Cultivation Palace.

After a while, I saw Yan Song and Xu Jie follow Lu Fang's steps and enter the Heart Cultivation Palace.

As soon as the two of them entered the Heart Cultivation Palace, they knelt on the ground at the same time and saluted Jiajing.

"Weichen knocks to see Your Majesty, long live my emperor, long live, long live!"

"Well, let's all get up."

Jiajing withdrew his gaze from Yan Song and Xu Jie, who were kneeling on the ground, and commanded.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

After receiving the emperor's consent, the two slowly got up from the ground.

"Come on, give a seat to the two elders!"

As soon as Jiajing's words fell, a eunuch stepped forward and prepared seats for Yan Song and Xu Jie.

After Yan Song and Xu Jie both sat down in their seats, Jiajing said slowly.

"You two, do you know why I came to you this time?"

"Your Majesty, I don't know, I hope Your Majesty will speak out!"

Even though he already knew the emperor's purpose for summoning the two of them here, there were still puzzled looks on their faces at the right time, and they asked Jiajing.

Hearing this, Jiajing's face showed a little playfulness and continued.

"So many things have happened in the DPRK and China recently, can it be said that the two pavilion elders don't know anything about it?"

Xu Jie, who was on the side, quickly heard the meaning contained in Jiajing's words, stood up, and said in a deep voice.

"When Your Majesty is talking about, is it referring to the recent impeachment trend in the imperial court?"

Seeing that Xu Jie was willing to stand up and pierce this layer of window paper, Jiajing nodded and said slowly.

"Well, that's right, that's what I was referring to."

"I don't know when, in the court, there was another wind of impeachment!"

"I heard that there are so many impeachment recitals on the Inspectorate's side that they are almost too much to pile up!"

"Now that the civil and military people of the Manchu Dynasty are in danger, the daily operation of the imperial court has inevitably stagnated, and many decrees have been left behind!"

"You two, don't you have anything to say about that?"

After Jiajing finished speaking, he immediately glanced at Yan Song and Xu Jie with an extraordinarily cold gaze.

After the two glanced at each other, they knelt on the ground with a 'plop' and said in unison.

"Your Majesty, Weichen is guilty, please punish Your Majesty!"

Jiajing took in the expressions on the faces of the two and continued.

"One of you is the first assistant of the cabinet, and the other is the second assistant of the cabinet, so you should set an example for the hundred officials!"

"Now that the wind of impeachment is so prevalent in the imperial court, you have an unshirkable responsibility."

"Tell me, how do you want me to punish you?"

As soon as Jiajing's words fell, Yan Song slammed his head to the ground and sobbed.

"Your Majesty's lesson is that Weichen, as the head of the cabinet, failed to fulfill his responsibilities and set an example for hundreds of officials, and he deserves to be punished."

"Wechen voluntarily fined him for half a year and grounded at home for seven days as a punishment!"

After listening to Yan Song's words, Jiajing did not make any comments, and immediately turned his gaze to Xu Jie on the side and asked.

"What about you, Xu Ge, how do you want me to punish you?"

After glancing at Yan Song secretly, Xu Jie suppressed the chaotic thoughts in his heart and responded respectfully.

"Your Majesty, Weichen also voluntarily fined him for half a year and grounded at home for seven days as a punishment!"

I saw Jiajing rubbing the dragon head carved on the dragon chair with his hand, and continued to add.

"Well, since the two Pavilion Elders have such an awareness, your request has been granted!"

"However, many affairs of the imperial court cannot be left behind!"

"Well, how about the cabinet send someone to your home for the affairs that need to be handled by the two of you?"

Seeing that the emperor had already made the corresponding plans, Yan Song and Xu Jie had no choice but to nod yes.

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Then, I saw Jiajing turn his gaze to the side and continue to add.

"I warn you, tomorrow at the latest, I don't want to see the courtiers attacking each other again, everything must be back on track!"

"If you can't manage your own men, then I'll consider replacing them with someone who can control them!"

"You two, do you understand?"

Yan Song and Xu Jie naturally heard the meaning of the emperor's words, that is, this matter ended here, if anyone dared to provoke disputes, then the emperor would take action himself.

Then, I saw that the respectful expressions on Yan Song and Xu Jie's faces remained unchanged, and they saluted Jiajing tremblingly.

"Obey Your Majesty's orders, Weichen knows!"

Seeing that the matter was over, Jiajing waved his hand quite casually and commanded.

"I have more business to attend to, so you can leave."

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

After hearing Jiajing's words, Yan Song and Xu Jie suddenly felt like they had been amnestied, and after saluting Jiajing, they left the Heart Cultivation Hall without stopping, not daring to make the slightest stop.

Jiajing looked at the backs of Yan Song and Xu Jie's departure, and couldn't help but curse secretly.

"These two old things, obviously very much hope that I can stand up and settle this matter, but they have to show a reluctant appearance."

"If you don't do anything well, let's see how I clean you two up!"

At this moment, I saw Lu Fang stand up and bow slightly to Jiajing.

"Your Majesty, the Hai Rui you mentioned earlier has made a lot of contributions."

"Not only did he punish those corrupt officials and officials, but he also copied a lot of silver from their homes!"

After listening to Lu Fang's words, Jiajing nodded and ordered: "In this way, let Hai Rui be appointed as the imperial history of the right capital." ”

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

After listening to Jiajing's instructions, Lu Fang's expression turned grim and responded.

……

After the self-nourishing heart hall came out, Yan Song and Xu Jie immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

Since His Majesty's side has given the corresponding instructions, it means that this matter is over, and the battle between the two sides is about to come to an end!

At this moment, in the hearts of Yan Song and Xu Jie, their feelings for the emperor can only be described by four words: Thanksgiving.

It was the emperor himself who came forward to end this battle!

Sometimes, you know something is wrong, but you still need to get it to the end.

The reason is simple, once stopped, people's hearts are scattered!

This time, the battle between the Yan Party and Qingliu involves a wide range!

As more and more officials were involved, the hatred between the two sides grew, and in the end, no one could stop.

Once stopped, there will be problems inside your own side first, so that the opponent will seize the opportunity to eat it in one bite, and there is no hope of turning over!

Then, I saw Xu Jie turn his gaze to Yan Song and said slowly.

"Elder Yan Ge, according to His Majesty's orders before, it is time for this wanton impeachment atmosphere in the court to be curbed right now!"

"What do you think?"

Yan Song also nodded after listening to Xu Jie's proposal and responded.

"Yes, such a crooked wind, it must not rise, it must be stopped!"

"This kind of crooked tendencies, we must not let it spread to the court again, Elder Xu Ge, the burden on the two of us is still very heavy!"
