Chapter 488: A Strange Meeting
Chen Kan entered the civil official royal road, the six Shangshu turned a blind eye, and the rest dared to be angry but did not dare to speak.
A group of people just squeezed into the Fengtian Hall.
Chen Kan stood in the seventh position in the civil official sequence, in comparison, the ranks of military generals can be said to be scattered, and Li Jinglong, who yawned, could barely get into the eye.
Zhu Di walked out from behind the screen and sat down on the dragon chair with an expressionless face.
When he saw Chen Kan hidden in the crowd, his face suddenly darkened.
Without him, he sat high, and at a glance he saw the instrument knife hanging from Chen Kan's waist.
In the entire hall, all the courtiers were holding wat boards, and only Chen Kan was on top of the ritual knife, which was too conspicuous.
"Long live Your Majesty, long live, long live, long live......"
The voices of the ministers chanting long live sounded, and Zhu Di had no choice but to withdraw his gaze, raise his hand and say, "Everyone, Aiqing, no courtesy." β
"Your Majesty Xie~"
The ministers stood still
Only His Royal Highness Zhu Gaochi, the crown prince, was not conducive to standing for a long time because of his obesity, so he moved a stool to sit at the head of the civil officials.
Seeing this, a little eunuch beside Zhu Di shook off the dust and shouted in a sharp voice: "If there is something to play, there is nothing to retreat." β
The little eunuch's sharp voice officially kicked off today's court meeting.
Chen Kan stood in the queue of civil officials, looking at his nose and nose, and now was not the time for him to appear.
As usual, it was still Fang Xiaoru, the heavenly official of the ministry, who stepped forward and started to do things.
Followed by the rest of the Shangshu.
The clichΓ© is nothing more than the appointment and dismissal of officials, where there is a famine, how money, food and finances are tight, Your Majesty, you have to think of a way......
The old mother's footcloth, stinky and long, Chen Kan was tired of hearing it, so he simply took a step back and dozed off on the pillar.
As for the ranks of generals, most of them were already snoring.
The court meeting in the early Ming Dynasty was so unpretentious.
I don't know how long it has been, but a ray of sunlight suddenly shone into the outside of the hall, and it happened to shine on Chen Kan impartially.
The alternating season of spring and summer in Jiangnan is already hot, and coupled with the direct sunlight, it is so hot that Chen Kan can't sleep at all.
Chen Kan rubbed his eyes, and was about to go around the pillar to find a shady place to continue sleeping, when he suddenly heard someone calling him.
"Hou Ye, Hou Ye, wake up, His Majesty called you ......"
Chen Kan turned his head and glared, but found that the person who spoke was a petty official in a green robe, and his anger suddenly disappeared.
Chen Kan generally does not get angry with people whose status is much lower than his own.
Wait a minute!
Something is not right, Chen Kan looked back several times and confirmed that he was still in a group of ministers, so where did this green-robed official come from?
In the entire court, except for the annoying spirits in the Metropolitan Procuratorate, there should be no green-robed officials, right?
And the location of the Metropolitan Procuratorate is close to the corner, and no one will run into the ranks of the officials of the six departments.
Chen Kan had some curiosity on his face.
He just hasn't been to the court for a few years, why is the Ming court meeting so strange that he is not very familiar with it?
"You are?"
Chen Kan just asked curiously, and Zhu Di's impatient voice suddenly came from the dragon chair: "Where is Jinghai Hou?" β
Chen Kan was stunned for a moment, so he had to step forward and arch his hand: "The minister is here!" β
Seeing that Chen Kan finally responded, Zhu Di's face darkened a little, and he asked impatiently: "What do you have to say that the subordinate officials of the Zhan Mansion collectively impeached you for tampering with the courses of the university hall at will?" β
"Huh?"
Chen Kan was stunned for a moment, and his face suddenly became strange.
He just slept for a while and was impeached?
What's the situation?
"Master Hou, this official thinks that you are tampering with the curriculum of my Zhan Mansion at will, and you are adding to the snake."
Xie Jin's voice came into Chen Kan's ears, and Chen Kan realized that there was still a person standing next to him.
Turning his head, Chen Kan always felt that this sentence was a little familiar.
Then he subconsciously asked, "Is Master Xie going to beat me?" β
Xie Jin: "? β
With big eyes on small eyes, Chen Kan couldn't help but twitch.
"Forget it, for the sake of whether your surname is Xia or not, I don't care about you."
Muttering to Xie Jin, Chen Kan raised his head and arched his hand at Zhu Di: "Back to Your Majesty, the minister has not tampered with the courses in the University Hall, but only slightly modified the course time of the two imperial grandsons. β
"Oh!"
Zhu Di sighed, and before he could speak, Xie Jin on the side immediately gave his hand and said: "Your Majesty Mingjian, although the Marquis of Jinghai is now in the position of Zhan Shi of Zhan Shifu, he has never gone to the university hall to give classes to the students, and he doesn't know much about the process of Zhan Shifu......
"Bachelor Xie's words are biased."
Chen Kan impatiently interrupted Xie Jin's nonsense, he was here to beat people today, not to reconcile Jin's quarrel, he was not interested in reconciling Jin's entanglement.
Xie Jin frowned, glared at Chen Kan angrily and asked, "What does Master Hou mean by this?" β
Chen Kan didn't pay attention to his, but looked at Zhu Di and asked: "Your Majesty, the two imperial grandsons worshiped the ministers as early as the second year of Yongle to be taught, dare to ask Your Majesty, how do ministers teach their disciples, do you still need the consent of Zhan Shifu?" β
As soon as these words came out, before Zhu Di could speak, Xie Jin said angrily: "Jinghaihou, you are using strong words. β
Chen Kan rolled his eyes indifferently, pressed one hand on the instrument knife, and approached Xie Jin's ear and whispered a threat: "Master Xie, it's almost over, today we are all angry with His Royal Highness the Prince, and the infighting will be boring." β
Xie Jin's eyes widened, and he turned his head to look at Chen Kan in disbelief.
"Jinghaihou, you ......"
"That's it!"
Zhu Di impatiently interrupted the whispering between Xie Jin and Chen Kan, frowned and said: "Since the two emperors and grandsons worship under the Jinghai Marquis, how to teach is the matter of the Jinghai Marquis, and the Zhan Mansion will not have to ask about this matter in the future." β
Zhu Di made the final decision, Xie Jin's face was unwilling, but it was not good to continue to speak.
Of course, it was not to give Zhu Di face, it was purely because of Chen Kan's words of infighting just now.
Now that he is the young Zhan of the Zhan Mansion, he is both prosperous and lossy with the East Palace, since Chen Kan is going to find a place for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince today, even if he is unwilling, he will not really come to hold back.
After all, he is a genius, not a fool.
Jian Jin reluctantly retreated into the queue, and Chen Kan also returned to the back of the pillar.
It's a pity that the green-robed official doesn't know where to go at this time.
After looking around but not finding it, Chen Kan no longer bothered about the matter.
The left and right are just a petty official, as long as they are still in Beijing, they can meet sooner or later.
From the beginning of the dynasty to the present, the things that should be played have basically been played, so the hall was a little silent for a while.
Zhu Di said expressionlessly: "Zhuqing, do you still have this music?" β
No one in the hall answered, so Zhu Di waved his hand and said, "Then let's retreat." β
When the words fell, a person suddenly jumped out of a group of imperial historians in the Metropolitan Inspectorate, and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, the minister has a book." β
Looking at the official, Zhu Di couldn't help frowning.
This morning, the imperial history of the Imperial Court of the Imperial Court has been standing there and pretending to be dead, he still thought that this group of imperial historians had finally learned to be smart, but now they have jumped out again, is this for fear that Chen Kan will not find their handle?
And the moment Chen Kan saw the imperial history of the Metropolitan Inspection Academy, he couldn't help but be shocked.
He was still worried about how the Metropolitan Procuratorate had changed his temper today, and he didn't say a word about such a big thing as the loss of manners in the Imperial Dao, which was a handle he specially sent in order to provoke trouble today.
Finally can't help it?
Okay, good wow~
Chen Kan's heart was laughing wildly, Zhu Di sighed imperceptibly, and still beckoned to the official: "Come on." β
The imperial history walked to the center of the main hall, saluted Zhu Di with a wat board in his hand, and then said in a deep voice: "The minister wants to impeach His Royal Highness the Prince." β
"Huh?"
In a word, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty were stunned.
Impeachment of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?
What's the situation?
The ministers looked at each other, and Zhu Di also frowned.
Everyone thought that it should be Chen Kan who he wanted to impeach, after all, Chen Kan came to the early court this morning, obviously to find fault, why did he get involved with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince again?
Zhu Gaochi, who was sitting at the head of the hundred officials, was very calm, and it seemed that he was not surprised at all that the Imperial Procuratorate impeached him.
Zhu Di was silent for a moment and asked, "What is wrong with impeaching His Royal Highness the Prince?" β
The imperial history bowed to Zhu Di again, and said lightly: "The minister wants to impeach His Royal Highness the Crown Prince for forming a party for personal gain, secretly collecting wealth and competing with the people." β
Zhu Di's face darkened, and he asked in a deep voice: "Since you impeached His Royal Highness the Prince, do you have substantial evidence?" β
"Yes!"
The imperial history straightened up and said indifferently: "Regarding the matter of His Royal Highness the Prince's formation of a party for personal gain, the minister has found out that yesterday His Royal Highness the Crown Prince invited Chen Kan of Jinghai to a banquet in the East Palace. β
After the imperial history finished speaking, he couldn't help but turn his head and glance at Chen Kan.
Then he continued: "In addition, the minister has found out that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has transported a large number of salt and iron and other materials to the grassland this year, and has made a lot of profits. β
After the words of the imperial historian were finished, he knelt down directly in front of Zhu Di and said: "Your Majesty, these two major crimes are well documented, and I also ask Your Majesty to hold His Royal Highness the Crown Prince accountable for the sake of the country and the people." β
After listening to Yushi's words of impeaching Zhu Gaochi, Chen Kan's brows furrowed suddenly.
It's unreasonable, it's unreasonable.
It is better to say that the imperial history impeached Zhu Gaochi for forming a party for personal gain, after all, he did not hide his visit to the East Palace, and everyone could see it in public.
But this kind of thing in Shangdao, with Zhu Gaochi's hand, if it weren't for Chen Kan's memory of later generations, I am afraid that he would have to be kept in the dark, how did this imperial history know?
A little imperial history, can you find out these things?
And after listening to the reason for the impeachment of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, the ministers couldn't help but whisper.
If such a thing is true, then it is a big deal.
Especially at the moment when His Royal Highness the King of Han led the troops to the battle, Zhu Gaoxu's prestige is strong.
If Zhu Gaochi's reputation is hit because of this incident, it will really make His Majesty feel easy to store.
