The fat on Ru Yu's fat face trembled, and he hurriedly shook his head: "Rumors, they are all rumors, this official is only loyal to His Majesty, loyal to Daming, a loyal heart can be expressed every day, how can it be with Chen... The fact that the imperial history came together is definitely a rumor. ”

"Oh~"

Chen Kan dragged out a long tail note in his mouth, and then nodded indifferently: "It seems that Benhou's news is wrong, but Lord Ru, the air may not come to the wind, you are in the position of the secretary of the military department, it is inevitable that you will be slandered by the villain, and you must be cautious on weekdays." ”

"That's nature, that's nature, after the next dynasty, the official must strictly investigate, but the official wants to see who is so bold that he dares to slander the important ministers of the court."

A smile squeezed out of Ru Yu's fat face, and after finishing speaking, he raised his sleeve and wiped the cold sweat that didn't exist on his forehead.

Chen Kan doesn't have much, Ru Yu is an opportunist, Chen Kan has long known it.

Now that he has put his posture so low in the face of his own beating, he may also be aware of the direction of the wind.

But it doesn't matter.

Chen Kan didn't return to Beijing this time to clean the court and set things right, he didn't have the ability, and those things were still left to the people hiding behind the scenes.

What he wants to do today is to make trouble to test Zhu Di's attitude, and then ask for forgiveness for Chen Qia's grace by the way, and other things have nothing to do with him.

The royal road is so long that some people will never be qualified to step through the gates of the Fengtian Temple.

The royal road was very short, so short that in just a few words, Chen Kan had already walked into the center of the main hall.

Zhu Di was dressed in a dragon robe, like a god above the nine heavens, just by sitting on the dragon chair, countless people were proud to listen to his dispatch.

Chen Kan stood quietly in the queue of honors and looked at Zhu Di, Zhu Di has changed a lot, when he first ascended the throne, he would still show his emotions at the court meeting, but now, he sat on the dragon chair and looked expressionless, which made people unable to guess his thoughts.

As if sensing something, he cast a light glance in the direction where Chen Kan was.

But he only retracted his gaze at a glance, and it seemed that Chen Kan's return did not have any impact on him.

There have also been some changes in the position of the civil and military officials below, first of all, the column of civil officials, and Fang Xiaoru's position was replaced by a chubby figure.

And this fat man is still sitting on a stool, and the fat man is naturally His Royal Highness Zhu Gaochi, the crown prince of the Ming Dynasty.

He was obese, and Zhu Di favored him to sit in the court.

There were several vacant positions on the side of the military generals and nobles, the first position should have been that of Li Jinglong, the Duke of Cao Guo, followed by the positions of the two great generals Zhu Neng and Qiu Fu.

But today, Li Jinglong was in third place, Zhu Gaochu stood in the first place, and Zhu Gaosui followed.

The queue of Wenchen and military generals has become princes, and there is a great sense of wanting to fight against each other.

"If there is something to start, there is nothing to retreat!"

The big eunuch on the side shouted the opening words that he would shout every day as usual.

Fang Xiaoru, the secretary of the Ministry of Officials, was imprisoned, and the first to stand up for the work was Song Li, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites.

Song Li walked to the center of the main hall, respectfully presented his own recital, and said loudly: "The minister has this recital." ”

Zhu Di said expressionlessly: "Come!" ”

Song Li said: "Your Majesty, the Ministry of Rites received a letter of state from the Northern Yuan, asking my Ming Dynasty to immediately release the Great Khan of the Northern Yuan Dynasty, Ben Shiari, and at the same time, the envoys sent by the Northern Yuan Dynasty have now passed the Datong Mansion, how to deal with this matter, please also ask Your Majesty to show me." ”

After listening to Song Li's words, Zhu Di said slowly: "Isn't the envoy of Arutai not here yet, what's the hurry, it's not too late to talk when they arrive, is there anything else?" ”

"Yes!"

Song Li responded and continued: "The Warat Ministry has a letter of state, saying that the Warat Ministry is willing to welcome back the Mongolian Great Khan, to correct the grassland authenticity, and also ask His Majesty the Ming Emperor to agree. ”

Zhu Di took a deep breath and asked lightly, "The envoy of the Warat Department has entered Beijing?" ”

"Not yet."

"Then wait for the envoys of the Warat Department to arrive in Beijing, and then we will discuss it together."

"Obey the Holy Commandment!"

Song Li's recital did not last long, after all, the outcome of the matter discussed in the court had already been decided.

Therefore, the court meeting is not used to deal with political affairs, but to announce the world or the court dispute.

After the Song ceremony was played, it was followed by Jian Yi and Ru Yu.....

The courtiers did their work, and Chen Kan leaned on the pillar and fell asleep.

The main thing is that the courtiers are like an old mother's footcloth, which is smelly and long, and it is also very hypnotic.

As long as it is the last dynasty, Chen Kan has no time not to doze off.

Sometimes he wondered if his life was in conflict with the feng shui of the Fengtian Temple.

As the minutes passed, the courtiers who performed the matter also changed one after another.

I don't know when it began, but the atmosphere in the court seemed to become delicate, except for the sound of the performance, there was no other sound, and everyone was silent.

In the past, it was almost difficult to appear at a court meeting that was almost like a vegetable market.

Finally, as the officials of the Ministry of Industry finished the construction progress of Beijing City, the entire hall fell into silence.

Zhu Di raised his eyelids, glanced at the eager Metropolitan Procuratorate, and then asked lightly: "Zhuqing, do you still have this performance?" ”

As soon as Zhu Di's words fell, a young imperial historian stood up in the camp of the Metropolitan Procuratorate and bowed his hand to Zhu Di and said: "Your Majesty, the minister inspector Yang Ying wants to impeach one person." ”

As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere in the hall was suddenly shocked.

There is no way, these officials who have been impeached by the Metropolitan Procuratorate have all lost their official positions, and their efficiency is not too outrageous.

The courtiers were all in danger, for fear that the next one would be their turn.

I'm really scared.

These imperial histories of the Metropolitan Procuratorate are more difficult than dogs, and even such a thing as spitting has to be sued by His Majesty again, who can not be afraid?

Zhu Di was also a little more serious and asked, "Oh, who does Aiqing want to impeach?" ”

Yang Ying glanced around the main hall, and the courtiers who had been watched by him immediately lowered their heads a little, for fear that they would become the one who was about to be impeached.

After a while, Yang Ying's gaze stayed in the queue of nobles, more precisely, on Chen Kan, who was sleeping against the pillar.

Noticing that Chen Kan was actually sleeping, Yang Ying's face suddenly showed a look of indignation, and then he arched his hand towards Zhu Di and said: "Your Majesty, the person who Weichen wants to impeach is Chen Kan, Marquis of Jinghai!" ”

As soon as Yang Ying said this, the courtiers were in an uproar, but after the uproar, they had an expression that was really like this.

Zhu Di also became interested and asked: "Yang Aiqing, as far as I know, Jinghai Hou only returned to Beijing today, it seems that there is nothing wrong, I don't know what Yang Aiqing wants to impeach him?" ”

The conversation between Zhu Di and Yang Ying woke up Chen Kan, who was asleep, Chen Kan rubbed his sleepy eyes and muttered, "Has it finally begun?" ”

Yes, the reason why Chen Kan came to attend the court meeting was to wait for this moment.

He stretched out indifferently, walked out of the crowd slowly, and asked with a smile: "I heard that Yang Yushi wants to impeach Ben Hou?" ”

Yang Ying glanced at Chen Kan with disgust, ignored Chen Kan, turned his head to Zhu Di and said: "Your Majesty, the minister impeached Jinghai Marquis Chen Kan for three major crimes and eleven minor crimes, and the sect has real evidence. ”

"Oh?"

Zhu Di was taken aback, then sat up straight, and said slowly: "Since there is real evidence, then let's play it." ”

After getting Zhu Di's consent, Yang Ying arched his hand and said: "The crime of the Marquis of Jinghai, the general who guarded the frontier returned to Beijing without the edict, this is a great crime of disrespecting the imperial power. Second, everyone in the court is asleep in front of their eyes, which is a great sin of contempt for the monarch's father. Third, the Marquis of Jinghai is a criminal minister Fang Xiaoru, and the general who holds military power colludes with the courtiers, which is a major crime of forming a party for personal gain, and is suspected of treason......"

Yang Yingyang freely counted the crimes committed by Chen Kan, including but not limited to rebellion, forming a party, provoking without permission, and disrespecting the monarch's father with a sword......

Anyway, after hearing this, Chen Kan felt that if Zhu Di didn't punish his nine clans, then there would be an inside story.

Oh!

Chen Kan is Zhu Di's son-in-law, and if his wife can't be punished by the three clans, then the six clans will be punished.

Zhu Di quietly listened to Yang Ying's impeachment, and then asked lightly: "Yang Aiqing said that there is real evidence for this?" ”

Yang Ying's face was overjoyed, and then he said respectfully: "Back to Your Majesty, there is indeed real evidence." ”

"If there is, then present it!"

Zhu Di's voice did not carry the slightest emotion, but the eyes of a group of imperial historians in the Imperial Court were ecstatic without exception.

A moment later, Chen Ying came out and presented the so-called evidence to Zhu Di.

This so-called evidence is naturally the correspondence between Chen Kan and Fang Xiaoru.

As for returning to Beijing without the edict, going to the palace with a sword, and sleeping in the court, these things don't need evidence, and Chen Kan standing here is the best evidence.

However, these alone cannot bring down Chen Kan, and it is necessary to sit on the real Fang Xiaoru and Chen Kan to form a party for personal gain and even attempt to rebel, so that it is possible to pull Chen Kan into the water.

Chen Ying was able to get the letters exchanged between herself and Fang Xiaoru, Chen Kan was not surprised.

After all, now that Fang Xiaoru is in prison, although his house has not been raided, the house must have been searched and checked.

Fang Xiaoru is also a square gentleman, and he has never been in the habit of burning letters, so it is not unusual for them to find him.

He wanted to see how Chen Ying was going to use the letters he exchanged with Fang Xiaoru to bring him down.

Zhu Di took the letters, and then opened them one by one.

Soon, Zhu Di finished reading the letter and asked Chen Ying: "How did you all conclude that the Marquis of Jinghai wanted to collude with Fang Xiaoru to rebel based on these letters?" ”

Here it comes.

Chen Ying's face was happy, he was not afraid of Zhu Di asking, he was afraid that Zhu Di would not ask.

He pondered for a moment and arched his hand: "Back to Your Majesty, in the letters exchanged between the Marquis of Jinghai and the criminal minister Fang Xiaoru, it is recorded that the Marquis of Jinghai begged for supplies such as blades, armor, and food several times when he was in Beijing.

As we all know, there are only 5,000 soldiers left behind in Beijing, and the tax revenue withheld by Beijing is fully sufficient for the equipment of these 5,000 people.

When Jinghaihou was full of armor, he still relied on the relationship that Fang Xiaoru was his teacher, and forcibly asked for enough baggage from the military department to equip 2,000 people, and his wolf ambition was clearly revealed.

If it weren't for the rebellion, what was the use of the baggage he was asking for? ”
