Chapter 55: How Did They Get Here?
It happened so fast that the ministers didn't even react.
By the time he reacted, Wang Shibin had already been dragged out by the forbidden army and hit four or five boards on the bench outside the hall.
Because the Chen Dynasty had already ordered, the forbidden army did not spare any hands at all, and Wang Shibin only suffered a few boards, and he became unconscious and vomited blood.
"Shhhh
The ministers all gasped.
And voila!
This is called a quick knife to cut through the mess.
In this court meeting, Emperor Yongxing also wanted to do this, taking advantage of the fact that Chen Chao was not in the court, he united with Wang Shibin and others to fight quickly, but the speed was still slow, so that Chen Chao rushed to the Golden Palace.
After a few words, Chen Chao solved Wang Shibin, telling him that he could no longer open his mouth and speak, and impeachment was nonsense.
After solving Wang Shibin, Chen Chaocai breathed a sigh of relief.
The Metropolitan Procuratorate is a group of professional trolls who can say that the living are dead and the dead are alive.
If Wang Shibin is allowed to continue to confront him, the situation is not easy to say.
But then again, if Emperor Yongxing and Wang Shibin wanted to win, it would be impossible, because they didn't have the most important force in their hands.
That's the Forbidden Army!
What can be accomplished with just a group of mouths?
You still have to have a hard gun, so that you can have confidence in your heart.
Unfortunately, the forbidden army was firmly in the hands of the Chen dynasty, and they had no chance of victory.
Emperor Yongxing waved his hand helplessly, "Xuan Taiyi, Wang Yushi has no way to teach his son, but the crime is not to death....."
After speaking, Emperor Yongxing fell into a deep silence.
The whole person sat slumped on the dragon chair, his eyes blank.
Obviously, he had made so many preparations before, but in the end, he was easily resolved by Chen Chao with a few words.
Now he felt that he was not at the same level as Chen Chao at all.
Chen Chao wanted to pinch himself to death, it was as simple as pinching an ant to death.
"Father, you are in the spirit of heaven, you must bless your sons."
Emperor Yongxing raised his head, looked at the golden dragon hovering overhead, prayed secretly in his heart, and then looked at the ministers in the hall again.
Wang Shibin has been abolished, so the only one who can confront Chen Chao next is .....
Zhou Mi, the secretary of the military department, blinked slowly, and after a while, the veteran general who had been fighting horses for half his life took two steps forward, and said in a hoarse voice:
"Minister, Zhou Mi, the secretary of the Ministry of War, impeach Prime Minister Chen Chao!"
"Since the prime minister just said that the construction outside the city is actually to help the people rebuild their homes, this is a good thing, and the old minister has nothing to say. But the money and grain in the treasury is related to the future of the Great Era, and it cannot be easily misappropriated, and the Prime Minister Chen Chao instructed the household secretary Qin Xiangru to wantonly embezzle the money and grain in the national treasury, resulting in the fact that my decades of savings in the Great Era have been swept away. ”
Zhou Mi is not the main attacker in this impeachment dispute, but he definitely plays a key role.
He doesn't talk much, he can't say as much as Wang Shibin, but every word he says is to the point, and he is a really difficult opponent.
Only then did Chen Chao pay attention to this old general who was over sixty years old.
Zhou Mi is a military general, but he is in charge of the post of secretary of the military department, which is really strange.
What the imperial court is most afraid of is that the military generals have a large army, so the military department of the past years is from a civil servant.
But Zhou Mi is an exception.
It seems that the first emperor trusted this old general very much.
Before Chen Chao could speak, Qin Xiangru stepped forward and explained: "Master Zhou, it is really helpless to embezzle the money and grain in the treasury, the relief food allocated by the imperial court to the disaster area is not enough at all, the porridge does not float chopsticks, some people can only eat one meal a day, and in the long run, how many people will be starved to death?" I can't watch them starve to death. ”
"Qin Shangshu is kind-hearted, the world is empty, but ...... The bottom line of money and grain in the treasury cannot be easily moved, this is a rule set since ancient times, even if thousands of years have passed, this rule cannot be changed, those money and grain are war materials! It's the wartime dependence of Aki! Sacrifice for those small families? Which is more important? Does Qin Shangshu understand? ”
"......" Qin Xiangru opened his mouth, speechless.
At that time, he also strongly persuaded Xiang Ye not to move the red line of money and grain in the treasury, but Xiang Ye was on the rise at that time, and he didn't listen to anyone's words, so this situation was caused today.
What Zhou Mi said is not unreasonable, those money and food are war preparation materials, and they are the reliance of Daji in wartime, if the enemy country comes to attack at this time, Daji will be overwhelmed to deal with it.
For the sake of hundreds of thousands of people, gave up the Great Era?
Which is more important?
Today, there is no escape......
Qin Xiangru sighed helplessly.
Just when Qin Xiangru had no choice, Chen Chao stepped forward and faced the old general Zhou Mi.
The two glanced at each other, and they were evenly matched!
This is also the person in the court who can really wrestle with Chen Chao.
"Prime Minister, what do you have to say?" Zhou Mi spoke first, not as aggressive as Wang Shibin before, his words were full of anger, eager to swallow his life alive, Zhou Mi seemed to be stating a fact.
He impeached Chen Chao, not for party strife, nor for personal revenge.
It's just that because Chen Chao did something wrong, he proposed it, that's all.
He, Zhou Mi, is for Daji!
For this old man, Chen Chao was full of curiosity, paused and said:
"The ...... I want to hear what the boss has to say first? It is true that the treasury is empty, and the prime minister recognizes it, how should the boss deal with the true phase? ”
Zhou Mi saw Chen Chao's reaction, and his face became strange.
"But it's okay to say it, the old man won't hold grudges." Chen Chao said again.
The ministers in the palace saw the confrontation between the two forces, and they did not dare to speak at will.
This is the confrontation between masters and masters, what was it before? Nothing.
A real confrontation of masters, there is no hoarse argument, and there is no red face to the point of two sides making a move.
Some only go straight to the problem and get to the point.
Zhou Mi thought for a while, frowned and said: "The prime minister's misappropriation of money and food is out of good intentions, for the sake of those innocent people. But the deficit of the treasury is big, there can be no punishment, and please ask the prime minister to find a way to make up for the loss of the treasury, I heard that the prime minister's mansion on Kuishou Street is magnificent, exquisite as Qiongxiao Palace, why not ask the prime minister to sell the prime minister's mansion, and return part of the money and grain, how about? ”
At this time, Emperor Yongxing frowned and said, "Zhou Shangshu, is this move still up for discussion?" ”
Only then did Chen Chao admit that it was true that he had lost the treasury.
If he was just asked to sell the Prime Minister's Mansion, would the punishment be too light?
Zhou Mi just shook his head and said slowly: "Your Majesty must know that it is easy to kill someone, but Daji is in a stormy situation, and Daji needs the prime minister to preside over the overall situation." ”
Final word!
Chen Chao smiled slightly.
looked at the military department secretary in front of him, full of good feelings.
This old man is as cute as Fang Xiu's old man.
While happy, Chen Chao slapped his palms a few times.
Immediately, several people who had been waiting outside the hall for a long time impatiently rolled up their sleeves and stepped into the main hall.
"Why are they here?"
"The State of Qin, the State of Chu, and the State of Wu...... Why are they all here? ”
"What the hell is going on?"
The ministers talked a lot and said in surprise.
