Zhu Houzhao was stunned as soon as he went to court, and saw Jiang Xia holding the placket on the chest of the old Yushi Han Wenqing in his hand and not letting go, looking like you owe me three thousand taels and didn't pay it back.

I believe that many people know what the position of imperial history is for, and it is their duty to impeach hundreds of officials. To put it bluntly, it is a person who specializes in beating people and making small reports.

Of course, they will not only impeach civil and military officials, but also boldly make suggestions to the emperor. It's just that the Ming Dynasty is not as free as the Song Dynasty, and there are Dongchang and Jinyiwei in the Ming Dynasty, so they don't dare to speak too presumptuously.

Zhu Houzhao, an old courtier like Han Wenqing, is actually very annoying on weekdays, always relying on the old and selling the old, and saying at every turn that he can't do this, and that violates the ancestral system. Seeing that Jiang Xia was having a hard time with Han Wenqing, Zhu Houzhao laughed secretly in his heart, and then sat on the dragon chair and asked in a clear voice: "Two Aiqing, what kind of posture did the Taihe Hall do not bow down when they see me coming?

"Your Majesty, make the decision for the old ministers. Han Wenqing knew the truth of taking the lead early, so he spoke first.

Han Wenqing trembled and knelt on the ground and said: "Your Majesty, this son doesn't know the order of his position, and he stands next to Lord Jin of the Ministry of Rites. The old minister was just kind to give advice, but who knew that he was disrespectful to the old minister, and grabbed the old minister and didn't let the old minister salute the emperor. ”

Han Wenqing's words were quite particular, he first said that Jiang Xia did not know the order of the position, and stood indiscriminately, in fact, he accused him of trespassing. Then he pointed out his identity and was responsible for the rumors, and also said that he was kind to advise.

Listening to it like this, it seems that Jiang Xia is the one who is at fault whether it is public or private. And in the end, he also said that Jiang Xia grabbed him and didn't let him kneel and worship, which implied that Jiang Xia did not respect the emperor.

Military generals are fierce with swords, and civil officials are good at their tongues. Han Wenqing is worthy of being an old imperial history, and this tongue kung fu is really powerful.

Zhu Houzhao frowned slightly after hearing this, then looked at Jiang Xia and asked, "Jiang Xia, is that so?"

Han Wenqing didn't feel anything when he heard the name Jiang Xia, but then he reacted.

Jiang Xia? Could it be that the dragon detective of the royal family is the leader? Jiang Xia, who has just caught the flower thief and has been named a scholar of the Wenyuan Pavilion?

Han Wenqing looked at Jiang Xia in surprise.

Jiang Xia hugged his fists and said to Zhu Houzhao: "Back to the emperor, what Lord Yushi said is true, but it is not the whole truth.

First of all, Weichen is not ignorant of the order of standing, but because Master Jin is a friend of Weichen's master Li Dongyang, and Weichen just stepped forward to greet him as a junior. This can be testified by Lord Jin. ”

After speaking, Jiang Xia looked at Jin Gui.

Zhu Houzhao and Han Wenqing also looked at Jin Gui together. Jin Gui smiled helplessly, he had already guessed that Jiang Xia would come to such a move, and sure enough, he really pulled him into the water.

With Jiang Xia on one side and Han Wenqing on the other, Jin Gui naturally knew how to choose between them.

Jin Gui nodded and said, "Your Majesty, what Jiang Xia said is not half false. ”

This is indeed true, so Jin Gui has no pressure to say it.

Hearing Jin Gui confirm this, Jiang Xia suddenly shook his sleeves slightly, cleared his throat and said, "Your Majesty, the facts are already clear. It's not that Weichen doesn't know the order of the position, but that Lord Yushi thinks that Weichen doesn't know the order of the position.

Lord Yushi shouted at Weichen indiscriminately, and then accused Weichen of being lax in his family education and hurting Weichen's parents with his words, so Weichen asked Lord Yushi to explain the whole thing clearly in front of the emperor with me.

As an imperial historian, as he said, he shoulders the responsibility of impeaching hundreds of officials. However, it is precisely because the master of the imperial history bears such a power that it is all the more necessary to investigate the facts in detail, so that what is said is true and well-founded.

If you impeach others indiscriminately according to your own preferences and prejudices, then what care will you care about the prestige of the imperial court and the dignity of civil and military officials?

If this is the case in the imperial history, then the hundred officials in the court will be separated from the imperial court, and they will no longer be willing to work hard for the country. At that time, how will the Ming Dynasty and the society be able to progress?"

After Jiang Xia finished speaking, the entire Taihe Hall was suddenly silent.

Zhu Houzhao, who was sitting on the dragon chair, was also stunned. He has always known that Jiang Xia is eloquent, and he has almost never lost a debate with others. But there are really a few people like him who wave so often today, but they just misunderstood him, did they say the wrong thing, why did they have anything to do with the civil and military officials of Jiangshan Sheji?

The people in the Taihe Hall didn't react at all to how Jiang Xia made such a fuss to raise such a trivial matter to the level of Jiangshan Sheji.

However, the ministers almost secretly sighed in their hearts, fortunately they didn't provoke this person.

After Jiang Xia finished speaking, Zhu Houzhao was the first to react.

He coughed twice and then said to Han Wenqing: "Han Yushi, according to what I heard, it seems that you were wrong this time, what do you think?"

Han Wenqing opened his mouth twice but couldn't say a word, and in the end he could only kneel on the ground and say: "Your Majesty, the old minister is guilty, and I hope the emperor will forgive him." ”

When Zhu Houzhao heard this, his heart immediately blossomed, this was the first time he heard Han Wenqing take the initiative to admit his mistake.

Zhu Houzhao immediately put on a straight face, and said with a serious look: "Lord Han, you also know that you are the imperial historian and the official of speech. Every word and deed represents the law and discipline of the Ming Dynasty and the majesty of the imperial court. But you're so indiscriminate today, and I can't just leave it at that.

Remembering your old age, I won't say more. I will punish you for one year, and you will not be allowed to participate in the court discussion for one year, so you can reflect on yourself. ”

"Yes, the old minister obeys the order, thank the emperor for his grace. Han Wenqing kowtowed to Zhu Houzhao.

It doesn't matter if he is punished for a year, but it makes him uncomfortable if he is not involved in court meetings for a year.

What is the use of his imperial power? Naturally, if he is impeached again and again, as long as there is a scandal of an official in the market, there is no need for him Han Wenqing to hint at anything, and the official will naturally prepare a generous gift to find him and let him go.

With this, Han Wenqing also got a lot of silver. Now that he has no power to participate in the court discussions, I am afraid that the next thing he will have to face may be the endless revenge of the officials he impeached in the past.

Zhu Houzhao waved his hand, and Jiang Xia and Han Wenqing stood back in the queue after each saluting him.

Zhu Houzhao continued to ask: "Does the Zhongqing family still have something to do?"

"The minister has something to do. ”

The ministers did not speak, but the supervisor of the Qin Heavenly Prison spoke.

The so-called Qin Tianjian is actually equivalent to the current director of the observatory, who is responsible for observing whether there are any abnormal changes in this celestial phenomenon. If so, you need to report it immediately and explain what the celestial signs are.

For example, the meteor slipped, this is a bad omen, and it needs to be reported to the emperor to let him go to the temple to worship.

For example, the Seven Stars Alignment, this is a good omen, and it is necessary to sue the emperor and ask him to announce the amnesty of the whole world.

Maybe you will say that in this way, isn't Qin Tianjian a god stick department?

In fact, I can't say that, after all, the people of Qin Tianjian still read a lot of astrological classics, but at that time, there was little astronomical knowledge, and most of them were speculations and superstitions, and everyone obeyed them just to ask for peace of mind.

Now Qin Tianjian, who rarely spoke, finally spoke again, so everyone cheered up and listened, because Qin Tianjian often didn't speak, and when he spoke, it was something that needed to be done.

Sure enough, the Qintian supervisor said: "Your Majesty, there is a mountain in Suzhou, south of the Yangtze River, and its mountain name is called the White Dragon Tomb, and the name comes from"

The supervisor said a long word, quoting the scriptures that Jiang Xia was drowsy.

Jiang Xia couldn't help but admire in his heart, in fact, to put it bluntly, there was a sudden landslide on the white dragon tomb in Suzhou, and the mountain collapsed so that a stone sculpture like a giant dragon appeared on the top of the mountain.

The local people all said that this stone sculpture was the true body of the dragon in the sky and was a spiritual thing.

The local people went up the mountain to worship and there was a word on the belly of the dragon, which read: "The Zhu family has a son, and the virtue is loaded; ”

When the ministers of the DPRK and China heard this, they immediately reacted, and the first word of each of the 16 words was connected to "Zhu Houzhao came"?

Sure enough, the supervisor said: "Your Majesty, this is a sign from heaven, and the minister prays that the emperor can follow the mandate of heaven to move south and go to worship the dragon spirit." ”

After some foreshadowing, Zhu Houzhao secretly glanced at Jiang Xia. Using the theory of ghosts and gods as an excuse for the southern tour is exactly the plan that Zhu Houzhao and Jiang Xia decided after discussion.

Originally, it could have been explained clearly in a few sentences, but this Qin Tian Prison Supervisor was saying such a long string of words.

But finally achieved the goal, Zhu Houzhao glanced at the ministers reservedly, coughed twice, and said: "It seems that I need to go south to take a look, I don't know what you think?"

"Your Majesty, this is not allowed!"

Zhu Houzhao originally thought that he would say first, "I need to go on a southern tour to see it", and the people behind him would not dare to oppose it again, but he never thought that the first person to jump out to oppose it was Fei Hong, an old minister in the cabinet.

Zhu Houzhao was nerve-wracking for a while, this Fei Hong is not an ordinary person. When this old guy was twenty years old, he was already the champion of the palace examination, and he was also the veteran of the three dynasties after Xianzong, Xiaozong, and now now. Just the cabinet, this is the third time he has entered.

Today's identity is the crown prince Shaobao, a scholar of Wuyingdian, and his status in the DPRK and China is not high.

Zhu Houzhao asked with some displeasure: "Who did Fei Aiqing say, why not?"

Fei Hong walked out of the queue and saluted Zhu Houzhao and said, "It's too strange." Your Majesty, the words of ghosts and gods are already something to believe, and if you don't believe it, you can't do it. If the mountain of the White Dragon Tomb Mountain collapses, and there are stone carvings that look like giant dragons, these ministers will not realize anything. And there are sixteen characters engraved on the dragon body, and there is also the emperor's name on the hidden head, this minister feels too strange, and the minister is afraid that this is deliberately designed by someone with a heart, in order to make the emperor move to the south, so as to be unfavorable to the emperor. ”

After Fei Hong finished speaking, Jiang Xia immediately rolled his eyes at Zhu Houzhao, meaning: "Look, let you don't add that word, don't add that word, you add it, the trick has been recognized, right?"

Originally, the design of this matter was only the collapse of the mountain and the appearance of dragon eagles, and then Qin Tianjian hoped that the emperor would follow the mandate of heaven to tour the south and sacrifice. This is a reasonable thing. However, Zhu Houzhao added 16 words in order to be foolproof.

What is the meaning of taking off his pants and farting too much, Jiang Xia finally understood.

As soon as Fei Hong finished speaking, Liu Zhong and Yang Yiting also jumped out, and the two didn't say anything, but said three words: "The minister seconded the proposal." ”

Zhu Houzhao immediately set his eyes on Jiang Xia, and the meaning of asking for help was very obvious.

Jiang Xia shook his head helplessly, and could only stand up and say, "Ladies and gentlemen, the words of ghosts and gods are indeed illusory, and this matter does seem a little strange.

However, there has always been a belief in ghosts and gods, and there is nothing if you don't believe it. If the emperor ignores this matter, I am afraid that it will also attract people in the future, if there is any natural disaster by coincidence**. I believe that you still remember that 'Mo Dao Shiren has one eye, instigating the Yellow River to rebel in the world. 'Right?'

"Mo Dao Shiren has one eye, stirring up the Yellow River and the world is rebelling" is about the form of justification used by the Red Turban Army at the end of the Yuan Dynasty when it revolted.

For example, during the Yellow Turban Uprising, Zhang Jiao attached the "Five Virtues Reincarnation" that was prevalent at that time, proposing that "the sky is dead, the Yellow Sky should stand, the age is in Jiazi, and the world is auspicious", such as Chen Sheng and Wu Guang faked the "Fish Belly Danshu" and "Bonfire Fox Song" to render a mysterious atmosphere.

There are also those who use auspiciousness to prove that they have the support of the mandate of heaven, such as after the uprising of Dou Jiande in the Sui Dynasty, it was advertised that there were five big birds flying through Leshou is auspicious, and for this reason, the yuan was changed to "five phoenixes".

All in all, a miracle like this really can't be taken lightly, otherwise it will cause many unimaginable consequences if it is used by people with intentions.

Jiang Xia's statement is indeed reasonable, but just after he finished speaking, an old minister said: "Then Lord Jiang, if something happens to the emperor, are you responsible?"

Damn, isn't that a provocation?

Jiang Xia didn't reply, and replied directly: "Is someone using this matter to make a fuss?"

"I neither supported the emperor to go up, nor did I support the emperor not to go. But I will remember that Lord Jiang, you spoke out in support of the emperor. ”

Jiang Xia looked at the old minister, and it was obvious that he was also an imperial historian.

The quarrel between Jiang Xia and Han Wenqing obviously offended all the imperial histories of the DPRK and China, and it was up to him to say such a scoundrel.

Jiang Xia couldn't help but ask him, "My lord, do you know the difference between a dog and a wolf?"

"What's the difference?" said the Goshi.

Jiang Xia smiled coldly and said, "Wolves only eat meat, not. And dogs are different, they eat meat when they encounter meat, and they eat when they encounter (imperial envoys). ”

The sentence "Yushi eats shit" immediately caused an uproar, and the courtiers in the court and China were noisy. The imperial history pointed at Jiang Xia and scolded: "You shameless villain, you dare to insult this official in the Taihe Palace?"

Jiang Xia immediately sneered: "When did I insult you? I just mean a dog? Did you say you? Could it be that you sit down and think you are?"

"Bastards! scoundrels!"

That Yushi pointed at Jiang Xia and scolded.

Jiang Xia walked up to the imperial history in two steps and said, "Warn you, don't point at me and scold, be careful that I am not polite to you." ”

"What? You still want to beat the official? You fight, you fight."

"Smack!" A loud slap sounded, Jiang Xia turned to everyone and said, "Everyone, you have heard clearly, it was this adult who asked me to beat him just now, I don't dare to disobey." ”

"You dare to hit me, bastard, you can try one."

"Smack!"

"You dare to hit Lord Lin, let's go up together to get justice for Lord Lin!"

There was a mess in the Taihe Palace
