It was close to early morning, and Jiang Xia had already gotten up before dawn.
Glancing at Cui Rushuang, who was still asleep, Jiang Xia had a slight smile on his face, and he stretched out his tongue and touched the tip of his tongue. Xin said: "This woman is disobedient and has to be pumped with a stick, I knew that this would be effective, and I didn't bite the tip of my tongue and pretend to be dead in the first place, in vain"
Jiang Xia reached out and touched Cui Rushuang's face, leaned over and kissed Cui Rushuang's face. Maybe it was because Cui Rushuang was tired after tossing too many times last night, so she didn't wake up as soon as she touched her as before.
Thinking of last night, Jiang Xia suddenly felt a cold sweat. Rushuang called herself a bad guy, and she immediately "picked up a gun and got on the horse" and taught Cui Rushuang a good lesson with a stick. As soon as the lesson was finished, he said: "In the future, if you call Xianggong a villain, Xianggong will teach you a lesson immediately! ”
Then what sounded in the room was Cui Rushuang's non-stop voice of "bad guys, bad guys, bad guys", and I didn't know what she wanted to do.
Jiang Xia got up and got dressed and tiptoed out the door.
The maid who was waiting to serve Jiang Xia in the courtyard outside the door immediately greeted him, and originally wanted to salute him and shout "see master". But Jiang Xia stretched out his hand to stop these maids, and directly ordered them to groom themselves.
After freshening up, Jiang Xia changed into his official uniform and walked to the gate of Xiaoyao Villa.
Today is the first early dynasty when Zhu Houzhao returned to Beijing, and today's early dynasty is destined not to be an ordinary early dynasty.
Yesterday, Zhu Houzhao returned triumphantly, and no one from the Manchu Dynasty went to greet him, and this problem is no more strict than if it is strict, because it has already involved the respect of the civil and military ministers for the imperial power.
Walking out of Xiaoyao Villa, Han Mufeng was already sitting in the carriage and waiting.
Jiang Xia looked at the carriage and took a deep breath, then got into the carriage.
When Jiang Xia got into the carriage, Han Mufeng immediately sent him in the direction of the palace.
The morning dawn is the beginning of the dawn, and the morning dawn begins.
Zhu Houzhao was dressed in a dragon robe and sat on the dragon chair with a crown on his head, and he personally asked, "Does the Zhongqing family have a book to play?"
The flat tone made people feel that Zhu Houzhao was angry or not.
After waiting for a while, none of the ministers in the DPRK and China started to play.
Zhu Houzhao nodded and said, "Okay, you don't have anything to say, then I'll say it." ”
"Obey the orders!"
Hube Shangshu immediately walked to the middle of the hall and knelt down: "Weichen is here." ”
Zhu Houzhao said: "Spread my will, all officials in Beijing are not allowed to release any more money from now on, and those who live in the official residence will all take back their residences!"
Hubu Shangshu was shocked, looked up at Zhu Houzhao, and felt that his expression was stern and not like a joke, so he quickly nodded and responded: "Weichen obeys the order." ”
"The officials obey orders!"
Yang Tinghe, the secretary of the ministry, stood up again, knelt on the ground and saluted: "Weichen is here." ”
"Spread my will, from that day on, the order of all officials in the Beijing Division will be stripped away, and all officials above the seventh grade will be reduced to no rank!"
"Wechen obeyed. Yang Tinghe said these four words with difficulty.
By now, the Chinese military officials of the dynasty have naturally understood what this is, and the emperor is angry, and very angry.
Stop, close the official residence, and free the order. I am afraid that no emperor has ever done such a thing in the past.
The Manchu Dynasty Wenwu suddenly didn't even dare to take a breath, and cold sweat kept coming out from his forehead and back.
But Zhu Houzhao was obviously not ready to forget it like this, he continued: "The Ministry of Rites obeys orders!"
Cui Zhengyi of the Ministry of Rites immediately stood up, knelt on the ground and saluted: "Weichen is here." ”
"Spread my will, in the future, all civil and military officials of the Beijing Division shall not sit in a sedan chair when traveling, shall not open the way with a yacha, and shall not accept the worship of the people, in short, the officials of the Beijing Division will be no different from the civilians in the future, understand?"
"Yes! Cui Zhengyi responded.
Zhu Houzhao waved his hand, and the head of the household department and Cui Zhengyi of the Ministry of Rites retreated to their respective positions together, but only Yang Tinghe was still kneeling in the middle of the hall.
Zhu Hou glanced at him and ignored him. He cast a color on the attendant eunuch, and the attendant eunuch immediately shouted: "If there is something to start, there is nothing to retreat."
"Your Majesty, the micro-ministers and micro-ministers have something to do. ”
Zhu Hou looked at Yang Tinghe and said coldly: "If there is anything in the Yang Qing family, let's say it." ”
"Your Majesty, Weichen dared to offend, and wanted to ask the emperor why the Chinese military officials of the imperial court had fulfilled their duties, why did they detain Lu, take back their official residences, deprive them of their taste, and exempt them from honor?"
"Fulfill your duties?" Zhu Houzhao sneered and said: "The ancients said, 'The court is Tian Shelang, and the twilight is the Tianzi Hall'. You read the books of the sages and sages, and you can enter the temple through the imperial examination. Since you became an official, how have you ever been treated badly by the glory and wealth?
But how did you treat me? When I returned from the chaos in Henan, the people still knew how to go out of the city to greet me?
"Your Majesty!"
As he spoke, Lin Zezhong, a scholar of the Hanlin Academy, walked out of the phalanx. He shook the hem of his official uniform. knelt on the ground and said: "Your Majesty, the ministers can't wait to greet each other, and the reason why they don't congratulate each other is not because the ministers and others don't respect the saints, but because the ministers think that the emperor is the Son of Heaven and should put the country and society first."
It seems that this time he rashly led the troops to go out and put himself in danger, if something went wrong, this Da Ming"
"Let go of your mother's stinking fart!" Zhu Houzhao suddenly scolded, then grabbed a black jade paperweight on the dragon case in front of him and threw it at Lin Zezhong.
Zhu Houzhao slapped the table and stood up, and said angrily: "In your heart, am I really such a faint monarch who doesn't know how to give advice?
The emperor led his troops to the battle, but returned triumphantly but no courtiers greeted him. This matter has been seen by thousands of people, where do you let me put the face of the emperor? In the hearts of the people, can I still be regarded as an emperor? Am I going to hand over this country to you to sit in the future? What will I do in the future, I will still obey your command? Bastard!"
Zhu Houzhao's words were suddenly speechless.
What is the most important thing for a literati to fight with others? The most important thing is to stand on the moral high ground, so that they can condemn others with confidence.
Originally, the officials in the court thought that they could confidently say that they were for the emperor's good if they didn't go to congratulate, but now Zhu Houzhao did not talk about whether his expedition was good or not, but directly said that these officials did not go to congratulate him and made him lose face, and whether it was right or wrong for them to put forward their opinions like this.
In this way, the real is avoided, and the Manchu civil and military forces have no power to fight back.
After being silent for about a few seconds, the Manchu Dynasty civil and military forces knelt on the ground together and shouted: "Weichen and others are ignorant and ignorant, and Weichen and others deserve death, please forgive the emperor." ”
Zhu Houzhao looked at them and snorted coldly, and said lightly: "Since you know that you deserve to die the most, then why do you want to mention forgiveness of sins?"
Yang Tinghe raised his head, and after he buttoned his head three times to Zhu Houzhao, he said: "Your Majesty, Weichen is a cabinet assistant, and today's facts are inseparable from Weichen. Wechen is willing to bear all the responsibility for all the crimes, and ask the emperor to forgive the others. ”
Hearing Yang Tinghe say this, Jiang Xia's brows immediately furrowed.
What does Yang Tinghe want to do?
Under such circumstances, he single-handedly assumed the responsibility of the crime, and on the surface it seemed to be responsible and courageous. And it also took advantage of the situation for the emperor to go down a step, the best of both worlds.
But looking at things and looking at the fundamentals, Yang Tinghe's emergence as a cabinet assistant at this time has many meanings.
On the one hand, Yang Tinghe showed that he was on the side of the civil and military officials, which also proved that Zhu Houzhao was absolutely wrong in leading the troops to go to the army, and even your own cabinet assistant said that you were wrong, and Zhu Houzhao could no longer turn around on the right and wrong of this matter.
Yang Tinghe, as a cabinet assistant, took all the blame alone, and Zhu Houzhao would not really do anything to him. However, the Chinese military officials of the DPRK owed him a favor because of this matter. It's really calculating.
The three Yang Tinghe also gave Zhu Houzhao a step down, after all, Zhu Houzhao's initial deductions, taking back the official residence, depriving him of his taste, and avoiding his honor guard can only be said to be angry, and it is impossible to really do this.
Yang Tinghe stood up like this, and Zhu Houzhao also had the opportunity to step down. In this way, Zhu Houzhao punished him at most on the surface, but in fact, he would be grateful to him in his heart.
Kill three birds with one stone. Jiang Xia said secretly in his heart.
Sure enough, Zhu Houzhao looked at Yang Tinghe and scolded angrily: "Okay, it's good that you are willing to come out and take responsibility, you, as a cabinet assistant, have made such a big incident." I will confiscate you for three years, and at the same time, the official will reduce one product, and you will not be allowed to sit in a sedan chair within one year. ”
A smile appeared on the corner of Jiang Xia's mouth, and sure enough, it was raised high and fell gently, this kind of thing that the ministers did together, even if Zhu Houzhao was the emperor, there was not much to do.
The saying that the law does not blame the public has always existed, that is reasonable, but it just depends on what the meaning of this "public" is.
Jiang Xia could even conclude that in less than a month, Zhu Houzhao would find a reason to promote Yang Tinghe's official position back, or even improve it. As for those three years, casually Zhu Houzhao found a reason to give him a thousand taels of gold, and he completely made up for it.
In the end, it is a joke that you can't sit in a sedan chair when you travel, and people who can't sit in a sedan chair can't take a carriage.
Jiang Xia shook his head, and finally began to understand in his heart why Zhu Houzhao was so persistent in controlling the military power and wanted to deter hundreds of officials.
The civil officials are arrogant like this, and it is indeed a lack of clean-up.
The matter of the hundred officials not welcoming him was gently revealed, and then Zhu Houzhao said: "By the way, the Ministry of Rites is about to canonize a Feng Guifei." ”
"Yes, Wechen obeys. Cui Zhengyi hurriedly responded, but people were confused, when did another Feng Guifei appear?
