Chapter 2 Slander and Admonition

According to the rank of the Ministry of Rites, the Qing Officials Division is only an official from the fifth grade, so it must be ranked outside the temple.

Zhao Kang has been an official since he has climbed the big tree of Hu Weiyong, which can be said to be the time to run.

If the emperor killed Zhang Dakui in anger, then he was recommended to be a member of the Ministry of Rites (five products).

At this moment, Zhao Kang was full of black gauze hats, and this voice shouted out, but it also shocked a few birds on the Jinluan Palace.

"Zhao Kang, the Qing Officials of the Xuanli Department, will meet you." The eunuchs in the hall sang.Zhao Kang walked to the main hall when he heard this.Zhao Kang went up the stairs and entered the 'door' of the hall.Zhao Kang didn't dare to go any further.Because there are pilgrimage rules in the hall.The higher the official rank.Zhao Kang knelt down in front of the 'door'.

"The emperor, the minister, Zhao Kang, has a play." Zhao Kang was crying bitterly when he said it.

Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang saw Zhao Kang like this, but not only frowned, but said impatiently: "If you have something to say, what kind of system is crying and crying."

Zhao Kang trembled and took out the music book from his sleeve and said: "The official position of the minister is humble, this music book should have been reviewed by Lord Qian of the Ministry of Rites, and then forwarded to the emperor. Zhao Kang said, holding the notebook in both hands and kneeling, he was crying in a mess.

What is this? Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang held his forehead with his hand, and he hadn't slept well for many days. Now after this Zhao Kang made a fuss, he had a headache. The eunuch next to him saw this, and hurriedly stepped forward to greet him. Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang sighed and said, "Present it."

The eunuch received the decree, got off the Sumeru platform, walked to Zhao Kang, and took the notebook. When he turned around, he glared at Zhao Kang with contempt. The meaning was obvious.

The eunuch returned to Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang's side and presented the fold with both hands.

Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang took the fold and opened it, and took a hasty glance.

"Zhao Kang, you are so bold." Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang said that he actually threw the piece in his hand towards Zhao Kang in the distance.

When Zhao Kang heard that the emperor was furious, he was almost scared of the 'pee' pants at the entrance of the palace 'door'. He couldn't help but complain in his heart. It was not good to find someone to find himself.

Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang pointed at Zhao Kang and scolded: "You are a small person from the Wupin Qing Division, and you dare to sue the Yipin Taibao.

Before the words fell, Liu Bowen, who was standing at the head of the class, came out of the class and said: "The emperor is angry, and the minister Liu Bowen has a play."

Liu Bowen is the minister of Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang's humerus, which is tantamount to the military advisor of the Ming Dynasty. Seeing that Liu Bowen has something to say, Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang naturally can't calm his anger for a while.

Liu Bowen didn't speak, walked over and picked up the fold thrown by Zhu Yuanzhang, turned around and asked, "Your Majesty, can you take a look at this fold?"

Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang sighed and waved his hand: "Look, it's really annoying."

Liu Bowen got the holy edict.Only then did he unfold the fold and take a closer look.The fold was presented to the emperor.Although Liu Bowen was the prime minister.But he couldn't watch it without permission.This is a felony that exceeded the system.But in order to share the emperor's worries.Liu Bowen asked first and then looked at the fold.

Liu Bowen first read it, and then smiled slightly: "The emperor must not be angry." As he spoke, Liu Bowen turned around and asked Zhao Kang, "You wrote this recital."

Zhao Kang was so shocked when he heard this that he kowtowed again and again: "Don't dare to deceive the prime minister.

It is rumored that Liu Bowen has the ability to penetrate the heavens and the earth, the ghosts and gods have the ability to argue, the ability to predict the rise and fall of the 500 years before and after, the strategy of the military book is even more familiar with the 'chest', the Ming Dynasty can have today, Liu Bowen is the most powerful, when he is the head of the list of ministers, when he is not half of the business, he has Liu Bowen's guidance, the Red Turban Army has won a hundred battles, Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang has praised Liu Bowen many times and said: "My son Fang Ye."

Zhao Kang was originally a cowardly and cowardly person, and when he saw Liu Bowen asking at this moment, where did he dare to conceal anything, and he immediately admitted that he was looking for someone to write for him, but he didn't expect that he would tell the emperor that he had written it himself, but to Liu Bowen, he said that he was looking for someone to write for him. This was undoubtedly the crime of defrauding the king.

Hu Weiyong originally thought that Zhao Kang had provoked the emperor's thunderous anger, and the two people he had arranged for him to go out to fan the flames.

Zhao Kang's begging for mercy, Liu Bowen smiled at him, Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang snorted coldly in the hall: "Where is Zhou Zhen, the secretary of the Criminal Department?"

Zhou Zhen came out of the class and said, "The minister is here."

Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang asked: "Based on what Zhou Aiqing saw, what kind of crime should this Zhao Kang be guilty of?"

Zhou Zhen thought about it for a while, and then said: "The crime should be beheaded."

"Let's do it." Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hand, and Fu held his forehead with his hand, and as soon as his voice fell, two gold-armored warriors walked into the hall and dragged Zhao Kang out with a 'chicken'.

"This Zhao Kang doesn't say it, I really forgot about that Zhang Dakui." Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang sighed and continued: "According to the report, Zhang Dakui 'privately' received 300,000 taels of silver.

When Hu Weiyong heard this, he felt that the opportunity had come, and only then did he give Lang Shengyuan, the 'waiter' of the Criminal Department not far away, a 'look'.

Sheng Yuanfu understood and said, "Your Majesty, the minister has a book."

"Speak." Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang said lazily.

"The minister thinks that Zhang Dakui's crime does not need to be discussed again." Accepting bribes privately is a clear proof; according to the laws promulgated by the Ming Dynasty, embezzlement of more than 10 taels will be beheaded, and Zhang Dakui's death will not be able to atone for his crimes." Sheng Yuanfu finished talking about the back train.

When Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, he asked Liu Bowen: "According to the Prime Minister's opinion, how should this matter be handled?"

Liu Bowen made a little plan, and then he said: "According to the minister's opinion, Zhang Dakui can't be killed, and there are three reasons: first, he is the only surviving minister of the Later Song Dynasty. It is known that General Chang once fought with Zhang Dakui in the army's 'gate', and the two were evenly matched.

Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang frowned, and then said: "When I made him an official, he just refused to take up the military position.

Liu Bowen smiled lightly and said, "This matter is easy to do." Liu Bowen said after a pause: "Zhang Dakui's mansion in Suzhou was given by the emperor, and the emperor can issue a decree to take it back."

Zhu Yuanzhang was stunned when he heard this, and he shook his head and said, "How can I do something that I don't believe in words."

Liu Bowen said with a smile: "The emperor can give him back Zhang Dakui's mansion in Yingtian, move all his family members to Beijing, and say to his family that he is serving in Beijing (Bianliang), but in fact demote Zhang Dakui to General Tang He." Liu Bowen stroked his beard and said: "Although the remnants of the Yuan Court are in the extreme north, they still watch the land of Beiping, and they always want to restore the country. Now Marshal Xu Da is guarding Beiping Mansion, there is Emperor Hui in the north, and Wang Baobao in the west. The situation is not optimistic.

Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang sank slightly, and said: "In this case, I will act according to the prime minister's plan." But then he continued: "Zhang Dakui once gave his own groom to me, and I also gave him a groom in return.

Liu Bowen then asked: "Your Majesty, I don't know who will replace the post of Jiangnan Tongzheng envoy."

Zhu Yuanzhang thought about it for a while, and then said: "Hu Weiyong and Aiqing will take over the post of Jiangnan General Political Envoy."

Hu Weiyong was overjoyed when he heard this, and hurriedly went out of class to thank him.

Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang sighed: "This position is dedicated to inspecting hundreds of officials, but now it has made me and hundreds of officials have a mustard." After a pause, Zhu Yuanzhang said: "From now on, the 'Jiangnan General Political Envoy' will be changed to 'General Political Envoy'.

Hu Weiyong was full of joy, but then it was like a basin of cold water poured on his head.

"All Aiqing, if there is nothing else, retreat." Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang stood up as he spoke, but then said, "Prime Minister Liu Cheng will discuss the matter with the Heart Palace." Saying that, there was a eunuch who supported him and went to the apse.The ministers of the Jinluan Hall bowed down the mountain and shouted long live.A court meeting came to an end.

Liu Bowen stood up and was led by the eunuch all the way to the Heart Cultivation Palace. A summoning call from inside the hall." Liu Aiqing, come in." This summoning shows Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang's reliance on Liu Bowen.

The eunuch opened the hall 'door' for Liu Bowen.

"Minister, Liu Bowen knocks on the emperor." Liu Bowen arrived in the hall and made a big salute to Zhu Yuanzhang, the Taizu who was sitting on the soft couch.

Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hand and said, "Liu Aiqing doesn't have to be polite, sit down."

"Your Majesty." Liu Bowen stood up and walked to the side of the chair and sat down.

Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang waited for Liu Bowen to sit down, and then asked: "That Zhang Dakui is really like General Chang.".
