Chapter 355: Attack

The auxiliary ministers of the Ming cabinet are generally three to five people! They all assist the emperor and handle state affairs.

At this time, the cabinet had four scholars and four ministers. They are the young master and the crown prince, Li Dongyang, a scholar of Huagai Palace, Yang Tinghe, a scholar of Wuyingdian University, Jiao Fang, a scholar of Wenyuan Pavilion, and Liu Yu, a scholar of the military department who has just entered the cabinet.

Among these four people, Yang Tinghe is an old minister of Xiaozong, who once confronted Liu Jin in the court, and he is really a mainstay in the clear stream.

It is because of him and Li Dongyang, this Liu Jin has been perverse for so many years, and Da Ming has not been too depressed.

But Jiao Fang betrayed Liu Jian and took refuge in Liu Jin in exchange for the position of a scholar, so he was naturally Liu Jin's disciple!

Liu Yu bribed Liu Jin a lot before he was able to enter the cabinet!

Therefore, these two people can also be regarded as Liu Jin's spokespersons in the cabinet, Li Dongyang and Yang Tinghe are temporarily unable to fight Liu Jin head-on, and in this cabinet, they also try to hand over the practice to these two people.

At this time, Li Dongyang asked Ren Bufan to invite these three people, but he was a rare mainstay among the civil and military officials, and he was obviously ready to use this opportunity to attack Liu Jin!

Li Dongyang saw Ren Bufan disappear above the courtyard wall, and couldn't help but sigh, although it is an opportunity now, the form is much worse than Liu Jian's attack!

Liu Jian made a mistake that time, but even Wang Yue and Fan Heng of the inner court came forward!

But in the end, it fell short, Wang Yue and Fan Heng were killed, and a group of cabinet ministers such as Liu Jian and Xie Qian were sent to the office, which was really turbulent for the government and the opposition.

Now that the opportunity has come, Li Dongyang doesn't know whether it is suitable to make trouble at this time, and whether he can bring down Liu Jin in one fell swoop.

......

Early the next morning, on the Imperial Palace, the civil and military Baiguan Mountain shouted long live, ushering in the Zhengde Emperor who was a little tired and tired in the leopard room.

At this time, Liu Jin was not in the court, but the eunuch in front of Emperor Zhengde was replaced by Qiu Ju.

After seeing the emperor sit down, Qiu Ju stepped forward, shouted, and said, "If there is something to do, play early, and if there is nothing to retreat from!"

"The minister has a good song!" As soon as Qiu Ju's words fell, he saw a high-ranking official behind Li Dongyang slowly walking out, this person was also dignified and had an excellent appearance.

When Emperor Zhengde saw that it was this person, he couldn't help but raise his eyelids for a moment, and said slowly: "Liu Aiqing, what are you doing?"

"Your Majesty, a month ago, Lord Lin Junlin, the governor of Sichuan, defeated the Sichuan thieves Lan Tingrui, Yan Benshu, Liao Hui, etc., in the Longtan River, and even sent the prefect Zhang Min and others to pursue and capture Liao Hui, one of the thieves!

This high-ranking official surnamed Liu said slowly and seriously. This person is the auxiliary minister of the cabinet, Liu Yu, the secretary of the Ministry of War, he is in charge of the Ministry of War, the Sichuan civil unrest is pacified, but he also has part of the credit, so as soon as Qiu Jugang said it, he couldn't wait to jump out, Chen said this.

At the beginning of the fourth year of Zhengde, there was an incident in Sichuan Min Liu Lie.

It's a pity that Liu Lie's ability is average, but he didn't make a big fuss, and was quickly extinguished by Lin Jun.

Although Liu Lie failed, the hearts of the common people in central Sichuan were fluctuating, and there were three people, including Lan Tingrui, Yan Benshu, and Liao Hui, who gathered a rebellion in the name of Liu Lie, and gathered about tens of thousands of people.

After this matter reached Jingshi, the government and the opposition were shaken, and Emperor Zhengde ordered Lin Jun to exterminate this chaotic people within a time limit and prevent the civil unrest from expanding!

Unexpectedly, more than a month has passed, Lin Jun not only defeated the rebellious people, but also captured Liao Hui, one of the leaders of the thieves, and escorted him to Beijing to be tried in person.

When Emperor Zhengde heard this, he couldn't help but be happy, his eyes also opened, and he glared at Liu Yu and asked, "Is Liu Aiqing's words true?"

"How dare the minister deceive Your Majesty!" Liu Yu couldn't help but laugh a little when he heard this, how could he dare to play in front of hundreds of civil and military officials?

"Haha! This Lin Jun is very good!" Emperor Zhengde couldn't help but praise, "This guy was in Jiangxi before, repeatedly provoked Uncle Ning Wang, and made Uncle Wang several times, and cried to me on the table! I originally thought that this old boy had no ability, and deliberately found fault? I didn't want to transfer him to Sichuan, but he was able to put down the civil unrest for me, and I have to reward him well! Qiu Ju, what do you say I should reward him for?"

Qiu Ju couldn't help but smile a little bitterly when he heard this, where is the emperor rewarding his courtiers, but he asked a eunuch in the court. If he said something high, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty were only afraid that he would not be happy, and if he said it was low, His Majesty the Emperor was only afraid but not happy! He could not help but stand on the spot, not knowing how to answer.

However, Li Dongyang spoke out to relieve Qiu Ju's embarrassment, and only listened to him come out of class and say: "Your Majesty, this reward for your subordinates is generally ordered by Your Majesty, and after the cabinet drafts the plan, it is submitted to Your Majesty for a holy ruling! If Your Majesty passes it, the decree will be issued, and if Your Majesty does not pass it, you will send it back to the cabinet to reformulate it! This is a reward from the court, I am afraid that something is inappropriate!"

Since the beginning of Emperor Taizong, the cabinet has been handling various affairs for the emperor.

At this time, the power of the cabinet was not the greatest, but the affairs were absolutely complicated.

Emperor Zhengde listened to Li Dongyang's words, but nodded seriously and said, "This is not bad! However, Xiya Gong, you have to discuss it with Mr. Yang! Lin Junneng can put down the rebellion within ten days, it is really the humerus of the country, you can't slack off!"

In the second year of Hongzhi, Yang Tinghe was promoted to Zuo Zhongyun of Zuo Chunfang with Hanlin Xiu, and he was the prince when he served Emperor Zhengde.

In the fifteenth year of Hongzhi, Yang Tinghe was exceptionally promoted to Zuochunfang college student because of his contribution to the completion of the "Daming Huidian", and he was the prince's daily lecturer, and he really had a teacher-student friendship with the prince.

Therefore, Emperor Zhengde has always been honored by Mr. Yang Tinghe, and even now that he has become the emperor, this title has not changed.

Hearing the emperor call his name, Yang Tinghe, who was standing behind Li Dongyang, also surrendered his order.

Li Dongyang and Liu Yu both retreated into the class when they heard the sound, and then Emperor Zhengde was excited and asked again: "Is there anything else?"

Yang Tinghe heard the words and walked out of the train, came to the emperor's collapse, saluted and said: "Minister Yang Tinghe, there is a book!"

"Oh, sir, it's okay to talk about it!" Emperor Zhengde nodded, glanced at Yang Tinghe with interest, and said.

"The ministers are here to impeach Liu Jin, the eunuch who is the eunuch of the inner court, the master of ceremonies!" Yang Tinghe said, and in this huge imperial palace, it was instantly quiet, and most of the courtiers looked at Yang Tinghe in amazement, I don't know what this bachelor who is famous for his integrity and courage to admonish and who is famous for opposing Liu Jin is going to impeach Liu Jin!

Only the old gods of the British Duke and the Chengguo Duke in the front row of the nobles were there, and they knew in their hearts what Yang Tinghe was doing, so they all stood still, waiting for the opportunity to second.

"Liu Gong, what are you going to do with Liu Gong?" If someone else impeached Liu Jin, I was afraid that Emperor Zhengde would not be able to help but beat the twenty court canes first, and then say, in his heart, Liu Jin not only tried his best to find fun for himself, but also Liu Jin in order to make himself feel at ease to play, but also devoted himself to the government, which is really indispensable, and most of the people who impeached Liu Jin are not good people.

However, Yang Tinghe's identity is not ordinary, and he is really a person that Emperor Zhengde respects very much.

What's more, Yang Tinghe and Liu Jin are not in harmony, which is well known in the government and the opposition.

Yang Tinghe swept Liu Jin's face in public several times, but Liu Jin was not in a hurry to deal with him, so there was nothing strange about Yang Tinghe's impeachment of Liu Jin, and Emperor Zhengde! He was just curious about what Yang Tinghe found this time to impeach Liu Jin.

"The minister has been reported by someone that Liu Jin has privately manipulated the martial arts sect and caused turmoil in the rivers and lakes, which is really a plot of misdeeds and harboring evil intentions! The minister implores Your Majesty to treat Liu Jin for a great rebellious crime!" Yang Tinghe said impassionedly.

"Manipulating the martial arts sect and causing turmoil in the rivers and lakes?

Emperor Zhengde thought that it was another matter of Liu Jin taking bribes and giving others official positions, but he didn't want Yang Tinghe to impeach this time but not the affairs of the court, but some things that could not be beaten, but this was very unexpected for him, and he couldn't help but look at Qiu Ju in confusion.

At this time, Qiu Ju was also stunned, he also didn't expect that Yang Tinghe would take the affairs of the rivers and lakes and solemnly impeach Liu Jin in the court, but this was a little unexpected to him, for a while, he was more at a loss than Zhengde.

"Liu Jin has been privately controlling the martial arts sect since a long time ago! According to a reliable source, he has now controlled the three factions of Hengshan Mountain in Beiyue, Hengshan Mountain in Nanyue, and Taishan in Dongyue! Among them, he even instructed the Taishan faction to deliberately attack the Tianyin Sect, causing the Tianyin Sect to retaliate afterwards, causing nearly a thousand martial artists in Taishan to die tragically!"

After Yang Tinghe learned about the martial arts from Li Dongyang yesterday, he asked himself to be the main whistleblower!

He deeply hated Liu Jin for misleading the country and tempting Emperor Zhengde to be greedy for pleasure, just thinking about getting rid of Liu Jin and then hurrying.

What's more, on weekdays, Yang Tinghe and Li Dongyang are one singing red face and the other singing white face, and they are dealing with Liu Jin!

"This ...... The reckless things of the rivers and lakes are said in the court, it is not appropriate, right?"

A gray-haired, senile official walked out slowly, and objected, this person is Jiao Fang, he had a bad career, he was over sixty years old, and he still did not rank among the nine kings.

In desperation, just as the new emperor ascended the throne, Liu Jin and others charmed the new emperor, he only felt that he could only find another way in his career, so he betrayed Liu Jian, who was the first assistant to the cabinet at the time, and was able to be reciprocated by Liu Jin and recommended to the cabinet!

is also because he was recommended by Liu Jin, since he entered the cabinet, he has been branded as Liu Jin's party.

Now that Liu Jin is not here, above this court, someone is attacking Liu Jin, and as Liu Jin's party, he can only come forward to exonerate Liu Jin!

"Master Jiao!" Yang Ting had a lot of discord with Jiao Fang on weekdays, and now seeing that Jiao Fang did not hesitate to stand up for Liu Jin, he hated this person even more in his heart, and only felt that this person had read so many sage books in vain, so he immediately argued with reason, "Let me ask you, is this world His Majesty's?"

"This is naturally true!" Jiao Fang couldn't figure out what Yang Tinghe was going to say, but he knew that this sentence could not be answered randomly, otherwise above the court, in front of the emperor, in front of hundreds of officials, he would not be good even if he was the first assistant, not to mention that he was only a cabinet minister, living behind Li Dongyang, "Under the whole world, it is not the king's land, the shore of the land, it is not the king's minister! This world is naturally His Majesty's!"

"The people of the rivers and lakes, have they ever been His Majesty's people?" Yang Tinghe couldn't help but smile proudly when he saw that Jiao Fang really said so, and said step by step.

"Yes!" Jiao Fang already understood what Yang Tinghe wanted to say, so he could only sigh helplessly, nodded and said.

"That's it!" Yang Tinghe saw Jiao Fang's appearance, knowing that this person could no longer stop himself from talking about this martial arts matter in the court, he couldn't help but be quite proud, and said, "Since the people of the rivers and lakes are also His Majesty's people, now this is the Emperor's Palace, and it is a place for His Majesty to listen to and discuss politics, why can't this matter of the rivers and lakes be said above the court?"

"That's it!" Jiao Fang said helplessly, "Then please ask Lord Yang to speak up, what are you admonishing?"

"Isn't Lord Jiao old and decrepit?" Yang Tinghe said with a smile, "I just said that I want to impeach Liu Jin to Your Majesty today, manipulate the martial arts sect without authorization, cause turmoil in the martial arts, and cause the tragic death of nearly a thousand martial artists in Mount Tai, which is really ill-intentioned and ill-intentioned!

"Minister Zhang Mao seconded the proposal!" An old man wearing a python robe and looking forward to the great power slowly walked out of the Xungui train, came to Yang Tinghe's side, bowed down and said, this is the grandson of Zhang Yu, the king of Hejian, the son of the British Gong Zhang Fu, and the second generation of the British Gong Zhang Mao.

This person is one of the best pillars of the Ming army, and the leader of the noble is average.

"Minister Zhu Fu seconded the proposal!" Another middle-aged nobleman dressed in a python robe, dignified appearance, and extremely powerful walked out with Zhang Mao, bowed down and said, this person is the great-grandson of Zhu Neng, the king of Dongping, the grandson of Zhu Yong, the king of Pingyin, and the second generation of Chengguo Gong Zhu Fu!

Although this person is not very old, he is also the head of the southern military generals of the Ming Dynasty, and has always served as the garrison of Nanjing, but it is winter at this time, so he came to Beijing to report on his work.

But it also happened to coincide with Li Dongyang's joint ministers, civil officials, honorable nobles, and military attachés to impeach Liu Jin.

Originally, Zhang Mao and Zhu Fu were the commanders of the Ming army, and they generally did not easily participate in this court battle!

However, Liu Jin tried to get involved in the army, and placed his own people in the army several times, such behavior, in the eyes of the two princes, was tantamount to a provocation.

Therefore, the two agreed to Li Dongyang and seconded the motion together with Yang Tinghe to impeach Liu Jin.

As soon as these three people took the lead, hundreds of civil and military officials, and meritorious nobles all stood up, bowed down to the emperor in unison, bowed down and said: "The ministers seconded the proposal!" This voice was like a mountain roaring tsunami, although there were not many people who could go to the emperor's palace to discuss matters, but these nearly 100 high-ranking officials spoke together, which was really amazing.

The other officials controlled by Liu Jin, about dozens of people, all had earthy faces, and they didn't know what to do!

These two people are Liu Jin's henchmen, Liu Jin is not here at this time, and there is only one Qiu Ju who has not yet become a climate in the Eight Tigers, so these people can only act according to the eyes of Jiao Fang and Liu Yu.
