Chapter Ninety-Five: One Stone Stirs Up a Thousand Waves
The first dynasty of the thirty-sixth year of Kangxi finally opened the dynasty in the expectation of everyone's different thoughts, just three long live, Shanxi Provincial Imperial History He Longling took the lead in the ranks, knelt down and said: "Minister, Shanxi Provincial Imperial History He Longling has this book to play Your Majesty, the minister impeached Chen Tingjing, the secretary of the Ministry of Households, disregarded the national law, and forcibly pursued the comparison, resulting in Wei Yawu, the director of the Ministry of Industry Yu Heng Qing Officials Division, and Qian Jingming, the director of the Qing Officials Division of the Ministry of Rites, and many other officials were forced to commit suicide because they were unable to pay off their debts. ”
As soon as He Longling, the imperial historian of Shanxi Province, finished speaking, the Gyeonggi Provincial Imperial Shiro Yueming came out of the ranks, and he also impeached the household officials, but he impeached the household servant Jining, and the crime was also forcibly pursued, causing the official to commit suicide. As soon as Lang Yueming's voice fell, Yu Shi Kui continued to appear again, but it was Yinzhen who was impeached, accused of conniving at the officials of the household department to forcibly chase the comparison. These three imperial histories are not the same master, He Longling is the eighth person, Lang Yueming is the prince's line, and Yu Shi Kuixu is the servant of the eldest brother.
Behind these three imperial histories stood a brother, but they are not easy to provoke the lord, so take the lead, a large group of court officials have come out of the line to play the chapter, all of them are impeached household officials, if it is counted according to the bullet chapter, almost all the officials above the head of the household department have been impeached, and dozens of large and small officials in the entire household department, together with the four elder brother Yinzhen, are all in the case, and none of them have missed the net.
Looking at the bullet seals piled up on the imperial table, and the officials who knelt down all over the ground, the old man Kangxi was so angry that his face turned blue. The old man had planned early in the morning that there would be a lively day in the morning, and he also knew that the household would inevitably be impeached, so he originally planned to forcibly suppress those bullets, but he didn't expect that this turmoil would be so big, and nearly half of the courtiers would impeach the household department.
Kangxi is a strong emperor, there is nothing wrong with this, but the problem is that the old man has always loved face, and he can't allow himself to leave a stain in history, so many officials impeached the household department at this time, and the evidence is conclusive, and the household department is indeed ruthless, forcing out people's lives, although it is out of public interest, but it has damaged the face of the court, and it is impossible not to hold the household department accountable, and the old man does not want to leave a faint infamy in the history books.
The household department can't help but dispose of it, but who should be punished and how to dispose of it, then there is a plan: Yinzhen is the elder brother in charge, the board is absolutely to suffer, and it is inevitable to withdraw the envoy, although the old man also knows in his heart that Yinzhen has been wronged, after all, such a chase compares, the treasury is a lot fuller, but the problem is that there is a murder case, Yinzhen, the supervisor, is inseparable, and the board that should be played can only be beaten.
Chen Ting is old, although he is a capable official, but after all, he is older, so he just took this opportunity to let Zhishi go home to recuperate, which can be regarded as a scapegoat. Jining and Wang Liang are in their prime, with outstanding abilities, and the old man is reluctant to punish him with a heavy hand, and he belongs to the object of insurance. The few petty officials who were involved in the household department were chased too hard and caused their lives, and the sentence of exile was almost the same. That's it, the old man opened Chrysostom in court:
exempted the fourth elder brother Yinzhen from being sent to the household department, and was punished to study in the study for half a year; dismissed Chen Tingjing from the post of secretary of the household department, and allowed him to return to his hometown; Wang Liang, the waiter of the Ministry of Household Transfer, was appointed as the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, and Jining was appointed as the Shaoqing of Dali Temple; Li Tianfu, the secretary of the Ministry of Transfer, was appointed as the secretary of the household department......
Although the old man Kangxi did not announce the suspension of the chasing competition, but after changing the heads of the household department, the chasing matter will be over, and the elder brother is happy in his heart, if he is not in the court at this time, I am afraid that he would have laughed out loud, but they were obviously happy a little earlier - the old man just announced the punishment of the household department, and immediately turned around and grabbed the mouth, tossing the brother who started the game: the tenth elder brother Yinosmium behaved perversely, acted recklessly, and lost his dignity, so he was removed from the title of Viscount Bei and fined for half a year. went to study in the study for a year; Xiang Mingshan political envoy of the Ministry of Relocation and Punishment, and Aji Fujian political envoy of the Ministry of Relocation and Justice...... The old man and his gang released all the cadres under the eldest brother, the third elder brother, and the eighth elder brother, and slapped them hard, but they did not move the prince's family.
The old man tossed like this, cut the mess with a quick knife, and hit the board down, the brothers were all hurt, and the big guy didn't have the heart to make a fuss, so they all thought about dispersing and discussing the gains and losses with the good student. But at this moment, the celebrant eunuch Qin Wuyong presented an excerpt that had just been urgently sent by the ticket office, but it was a piece of music on Yinzuo, who was far away in the south of the Yangtze River. After reading the recital, the old man was silent for a long time, and finally didn't say a word, just waved his hand and motioned for Qin Wuyong to read it out loud.
The elder brothers and courtiers who were originally a little dizzy by the old man's thunderbolt method listened to the excerpt, and suddenly exploded, and the civil and military discussions of the Manchu Dynasty were full of discussions, as if they forgot that this was the Jinluan Palace, and the old man Kangxi was still sitting on it. The positions of the officials were different, and they quarreled in court over this method of returning to the public by fire, and there was no dignity of the courtiers.
Suo Etu, Ma Qi, Tong Guowei, and Li Guangdi, all of the ministers in the study were as immobile as a mountain, their faces were calm, and their faces were full of deep thought, this excerpt is too related, and these old foxes will not immediately express their stance before they have studied it thoroughly. And those second-level court officials just quarreled with each other, but no one played to show their own attitude. The old man Kangxi glanced at the chaotic court, and he was not angry, but just ordered to retreat from the court.
The court is retreating, but the matter is not over, not to mention that the officials are waiting to see the direction of the wind, even the brothers don't know much about it, they don't understand what the sixth brother is doing, and they are all anxious to analyze their own gains and losses first.
In the upper study, the old man Kangxi sat on his head, looked around at the ministers in the upper study, and said: "Today, I will discuss this excerpt of Xiao Liu'er, and Zhong Aiqing has something to say." ”
Suo Etu is a scholar of the Baohe Palace, ranking first among the ministers, of course, he has to say it first, this is a firm prince backer, and Yinzuo is a mortal enemy, on the way to the study he thought of countermeasures, at this time the first to stand up and said: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that the excerpt of King Yijun is really a mistake for the country, the court has decided that the fire consumption shall not be higher than two yuan, and now the fire consumption collected has actually reached three yuan, which is a violation of the rules, since it is collected by the public, it should be charged into the treasury, and there is no reason to distribute it to those officials." Those who are officials should be honest and self-controlled, and the court will not be able to do anything? ”
Suo Etu's words were impassioned and high-sounding, as if he was the first Qing official of the Qing Dynasty, and the reason was very sufficient, but Ma Qi had a different opinion, and immediately came out and said: "Shengshang, the minister does not agree with Lord Suo's point of view, the minister thinks that the excerpt of King Yijun is really the way to seek the country, and this law is called raising incorruptible silver, and the local officials have no right to collect fire consumption, so they naturally broke off the idea of exploiting the people, and the minister thinks that this method is feasible!" ”
Tong Guowei's face was full of contemplation, silently did not speak, and he swept over with Kangxi's eyes, and said stubbornly: "Holy Lord, the minister thinks that the words of Lord Suo and Master Ma are reasonable, and the minister respectfully asks for the holy judge." ”
Li Guangdi has been a magistrate, and he knows the power of this excerpt, whether he is in favor or against, he will offend people, so he simply kept his mouth shut, and Xu Shu entered Cao Ying without saying a word. Several other ministers expressed their opinions, some agreed, some opposed, and quarreled fiercely. The old man Kangxi didn't seem to have a bottom in his heart, and after listening to the old man for a while, he was annoyed, waved his hand to stop the noisy arguments of the ministers, and ordered everyone to split up and let them kneel and disperse.
For several days in a row, the ministers and brothers were very busy for Yinzuo's excerpt, whether they were in favor or against, they were busy with fire, generally speaking, the officials who had nothing to do with oil and water were definitely in favor of raising their hands, and the fat officials who were full of oil and water were all against it.
The prince, the eldest brother, and the centaurs of the family have some grudges against Yinzuo, so they naturally oppose it with all their might; The old three and the gang stood aside to watch the excitement, intending to see which one was powerful and which one would help; The old eighty-one gang has the greatest influence among the court officials, and if Yinzuo's excerpt is really implemented, they will be hit the hardest, but they can't figure out what Yinzuo wants to do, and they can't figure out what the old man Kangxi thinks, and he didn't dare to make a statement in a hurry, so he hurriedly discussed it for a few days, and finally prepared two folds and one agreed. an opposition, just waiting for the court to see the limelight; The fourth Yinzhen was exempted, he was depressed, he was sulking at home, licking his wounds, how could he have the heart to pay attention to Yinzuo's excerpts.
Everyone has been busy for a few days, and finally it is the day of the last dynasty, good guys, as soon as the court opens, the civil and military officials of the court are full of energy, and they quote scriptures and argue endlessly, and the opposition and the favor are inseparable, if it is not for the great crime of rudeness in front of the king, I am afraid that the bloodshed will have to be staged several times. The old man Kangxi was also dizzy by the courtiers, and besides, he really didn't make up his mind about himself, no, with a wave of his hand, he made a decree - Yinzuo, the king of Yijun, immediately set off to return to Beijing.
Through his own channels, Yinzuo has already learned of the changes in the court, and he is ready to return to Beijing at this time, no, he just received the holy decree sent by the old man in an expedited manner of 800 miles, and he was very proud in his heart, so he immediately packed up, arranged the people, and set off to return to Beijing......
