Chapter Fifty-Nine: The Literati Reverse the Scales
When Wang Qi and the Minister of Horqin began in-depth negotiations on the specific matters of Horqin and the Ming Dynasty.
At this time, thousands of miles away in the city of Beijing, from the six civil and military officials of the cabinet to the scholars and merchants, the peddlers and pawns were in a collective trance.
I have heard that Wufu entered the grassland alone, but no one has heard of any of the ministers in brocade clothes who want to make a holy decree alone!
When Zuo Guangdou stabbed this matter into the capital, the entire Beijing City, the entire Beizhili, and even the entire north and south of Beijing and thirteen provinces were collectively fried.
A literati who is interested in state affairs, a feudal official who enjoys the yamen of a provincial government, Zhu Zi of the Sixth Ministry, the head of the cabinet, and the impeachment of Wang Qi flew into the imperial city like a snowflake and flew to Zhu Youxiao's imperial table.
Not only the impeachment of Wang Qi, but also any Liaodong officials related to him have been taken as the target of bombardment by the Wenchen who blew up Mao, Wang Tiqian, Xiong Tingbi, Wang Huazhen, Zu Dashou, Lu Enguang and other important ministers of Liaodong, who have been criticized for being incomplete, and they want to kill them quickly.
Martial artists interfere in politics, and blatantly ask for the power of the draft, isn't this a violation of civil officials and scales, what is this? This is the heart of usurpation is clearly revealed, this is the precursor of Yi Yin Huoguang's desire to abolish the establishment, this is a sign of Wang Mang Zhu Huang's disobedience, stacked with the recital of the Qianqing Palace, and seven big characters are written on the whole page:
Kill Wang Qi, it is safe in the world!
But what is deeply surprising is that no matter how hoarse the ministers outside are, knocking on the door to admonish, in the imperial city, the Son of Heaven is high, for ten days, not a word has been spoken, and all the impeachment of Wang Qi and related people and other documents have been left behind, not approved, not returned, and there is no response.
Inside and outside the capital, everyone is speculating about what the silent Zhu Youxiao is thinking in the imperial city, the son of heaven who has been silent for a long time, facing the Liaodong upstart he has just entrusted with a heavy task and even giving his sister to marry?
Inside the Qianqing Palace.
Zhu Youxiao looked at the piles of recitals on the royal table with an expressionless face, nine out of nine of these recitals were impeached against Wang Qi, and he must say that he supported the army and respected himself, was good at drafting holy decrees, and was pampered and arrogant, and the end was almost all to set an example for the head of the owl, and it was not enough for the people to be angry if they didn't kill! It seems that if Wang Qi is not killed, the entire Ming Dynasty will immediately overthrow and the country will be lost.
As for the remaining scattered scripts, it is a rare suggestion to wait for Wang Qi to return from the grassland and then discuss it according to the situation, because now Jianzhou is still eyeing the tiger, Wang Qi, as a hero, can not be easily beheaded, at this time to kill the border ministers, it is easy to cause instability in the frontier, these recitals are rare old and serious, starting from the overall situation.
At this time, the atmosphere in the Qianqing Palace was a little solemn, and Zhu Youxiao had already sent away most of the palace maids and eunuchs who were serving him, leaving only Wei Zhongxian and Wang Tiqian here.
Zhu Youxiao leaned on the throne and summoned the two to the hall for questioning, almost without saying a word for half an hour, while Wei Zhongxian stood not far from Zhu Youxiao's side, with low eyebrows and pleasing eyes.
This celebrant Da Jue has already made up his mind, as long as Zhu Youxiao doesn't ask himself, he will definitely not speak first, because no one knows what this son of heaven is thinking in his head now?
How much does he tolerate Wang Qi?
Wang Tiqian knelt tremblingly on the main hall, his forehead was swollen and swollen, and blood was constantly oozing, and the floor in front of him was already a pool of black blood, and the viscous had stopped flowing.
"A martial artist is planning a will, as if he has dug up the ancestral graves of those scholars," In the cold hall, Zhu Youxiao, who had been silent for a long time, finally spoke, and his voice was indifferent.
"It's because the minions have been tempted too much and failed to grasp the scale, which has provoked such a fierce counterattack from the Wenchen Group, and the minions are willing to apologize with death!" Wang Ti didn't say anything, despite the fact that his forehead was already dripping with blood, he still slammed towards the bluestone floor.
As the Grand Governor of the Celebrant and the second-in-command of actual power, his every move in Liaodong represents the emperor's will. So in the eyes of those civil officials, since Wang Tiqian can allow Wang Qi to act cheaply, then there must be Zhu Youxiao's intention behind it.
Therefore, such a fierce counterattack by the civil official clique is not only against Wang Qi, not only against the celebrant supervisor, but more importantly, at a deeper level, it is to further suppress and restrain Zhu Youxiao's power!
"That's it, don't knock it, if you die here, you will only bother me to collect the corpse for you! In the end, the infamy is also borne by me! Zhu Youxiao waved his hand impatiently, telling Wang Tiqian to stop playing bitter tricks.
Wang Tiqian's actions in Liaodong, as the emperor and as the master behind the scenes, can naturally understand and are willing to understand.
However, as the emperor, Zhu Youxiao did not expect that the right to act cheaply of a mere martial artist could cause such a fierce backlash from the civil and official groups, from Beizhili, Shanshan and Shaanxi, to Huguang, Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Yunnan and Guizhou, and then to the land of Liangguang, the voice of opposition was one after another, and there were countless dead admonitions, and even more, claiming that if Liaodong was not severely punished for the civil and military affairs involved, he would carry the coffin into Beijing, and crash to death on the purple gold pillar of the Qianqing Palace, staining the four nine cities with blood!
"Your Majesty Longen, the slave deserves it! It was the slave who was stupid and did not get things done, which made His Majesty suffer, and the slave deserved to die! When Wang Tiqian heard Zhu Youxiao's words as if he was punished, but in fact he was lenient, a hanging one finally fell.
Emperor Tianqi doesn't talk about anything else, this is not suspicious, no suspicion is used, and the means of grasping people's hearts are still inherited from his great-grandfather, Emperor Jiajing.
"Wei Daban, what is the reaction of those ministers today? What are you worried about? Tell me, "Today, Zhu Youxiao stopped the court meeting for a day, wanting to hide and be clean, but the movements of those ministers, Zhu Youxiao still wants to control them through Jinyiwei.
The ancestral family law is familiar with it.
Wei Zhongxian heard Zhu Youxiao's question, and immediately bowed back: "Back to Your Majesty's words, among the cabinet ministers, there are three people who are closed, including Han Yi, Ye Xianggao, and Liu Yijing, but ......"
Wei Zhongxian paused before continuing: "Although those cabinet ministers are closed, Jinyiwei has learned that every day Ye, Han, Liu and other government officials come in and out, students, friends, and more than 100 people in the same department, and one by one secret letters are constantly sent out from the capital and flow to all directions, as for what they want to do?" ”
Wei Zhongxian closed his mouth and did not continue.
"Heh," Zhu Youxiao nodded, and the brows that were already twisted together because of sorrow became even more furrowed.
After a while, Zhu Youxiaotong's red cheeks burst out with only two words: Donglin!
In Zhu Youxiao's cognition, in the wave of crusade against Wang Qi's envoy to Horqin, the two Yu: Donglin!
Ye Xianggao, Han Yi, Yang Lian, and Liu Yihuan are all pushers, although they are not out, but a secret letter and the doorman go in and out, weaving a whole net, to put Wang Qi in, and then lifted it high and fell to the ground heavily!
Thinking of this, Zhu Youxiao's forehead protruded, if Wang Qi died, it would mark the first confrontation with the courtiers since he came to power!
"I will never allow this to happen!" Zhu Youxiao snorted coldly!
"Your Majesty," Wang Tiqian sent an assist at this time: "There is also a key point, now those literati and doctors have lost Dongjiang Town in southern Liaoning, and the responsibility for Mao Wenlong's surrender has also been pushed to Wang Qi!" ”
There is a crime in Xue Wenzhou's impeachment recital in the Hu Ke matter: leaving his post without permission, which allowed Jiannu to divide his troops in southern Liaoning, resulting in a critical situation.
