Chapter Seventy-One: Is Xu Youzhen a Loyal Minister?
It's about handling, not processing. This in itself already shows an attitude of Yingzong.
The official who was just sealed yesterday was still because of the potatoes that were good luck. It is said that if it weren't for Yang Chendong's young age, an official position from the fifth grade would be too light. This Zhu Qizhen said that when he waited for the opening of the Immortal Residence, he would go to the scene if he had time.
This is a kind of compensation in disguise.
All the ministers also knew this, but no one objected, because this was what Yang Chendong deserved.
But it's just one day. No! Not even twelve hours have come? Someone impeached Yang Chendong, where is this doing, it is clearly a slap in the face of the emperor.
The so-called lord humiliates the minister to death! The ministers all know that today they have the obligation and responsibility to exonerate Yang Chendong. If not, if you treat others with yourself, and when you have made a meritorious contribution to something, wouldn't it be possible to be rewarded today and taken back tomorrow?
Whether it is cold lips or teeth, whether it is official ministers or protection, in short, the ministers are now forced to stand in Yang Chendong's position to speak.
It's just that before the ministers could figure out how to express their positions, another person stood up in the court. When he stood forward with the wat board, the ministers knew that it was not good, and some of them had anxious expressions on their faces.
"Your Majesty, the minister Yu Qian seconded the matter of Xu Du's request. As an official of the imperial court, he should abide by the law. But if you linger in the place of fireworks, you even sing on the same stage with the play, which is really a loss of face for my courtiers, and I ask the emperor to punish him. As he spoke, with a righteous face, Yu Qian, the arrogant left attendant of the military department, fell to the ground on his knees and bowed down.
Yu Qian, the word Tingyi, Qiantang people. When he was a teenager, he studied hard and had high ambitions. He admired and admired Wen Tianxiang's integrity, and hung Wen Tianxiang's statue on the side of the seat, which has been the same for decades.
This Yu Qianfei is the master who smokes and burns his head and drinks, and he is actually one of the loyal ministers and famous ministers of the Ming Dynasty. He attaches great importance to fame and fortune, (when the family has no money left at the time of death), he is heavy on becoming benevolent, light on killing (after the change of Tumubao, he will not retreat), he is heavy on Sheji, and he is light on the king (when he elected Zhu Qiyu as emperor after the change of Tumubao, he claimed that we were completely thinking about the country, not for personal planning).
Yu Qianzhi is strong, even Wang Zhen has no way to take it, and he is one of the few officials who makes General Manager Wang very helpless.
At this time, he stood up and supported Xu Youzhen with all his might, making the situation more complicated and serious.
"The minister has a different opinion." As if he was afraid that there would be an official seconding it, Wang Zuo, the head of the household department, stepped out and said with a wat board.
Yingzong Zhu Qizhen, who was frowning, suddenly heard a courtier say that he had a different opinion, and his heart was shocked at the moment: "Say." ”
"Your Majesty, although Jiuyifang is in Flower Street, it is indeed not an extraordinary place to find flowers and willows, and it is one of the pure lands. Yang Xima went there, which is not considered a violation. Wang Zuo took the lead in his words and directly separated Jiuyifang from Huajie, which is a word of exculpation.
"Second, the six arts of a gentleman, among which there is a word for music. Yang Xima created Yang Bao, and his versatile ability has long been known to the world, but now it's nothing to just sing a few songs. On the contrary, the minister believes that this is to understand the affairs of the people, and it can also better show the demeanor of the minister, who is omnipotent and omnipotent. ”
"Third, Yang Xima is young after all, and he is a newcomer to Beijing, so it is inevitable that he will be attracted by the prosperity here, and make some moves that are not too suitable, which is completely understandable."
"With these three points, the minister asks the emperor to be gracious, and Yang Xima will be punished without punishment, showing the emperor's broad mind." After Wang Zuo finished speaking, he fell to the ground again, shouting long live and then bowing again.
As soon as Wang Zuo stood up, he was followed by Wang Zhi, the secretary of the ministry.
This morning, grandson Wang Si came to say goodbye, and knelt down to recount in detail what happened in Jiuyifang yesterday. In his own words, if it weren't for his agitation, Yang Chendong would not have come to the stage to sing, and there would have been no trouble. If there is really an impeachment of the imperial history, please ask your grandfather to help him as much as possible, otherwise, Yang Chendong will be punished, and he will not be much better as an accomplice.
After Wang Zhi heard this, he was a little annoyed, his grandson was good at everything, he studied hard, and he was conscientious when he was on errands, but he just liked to be in the limelight too much, especially in those places of fireworks. On this matter, he has said it more than once, and this is good, without repentance or talk, he has made a big deal.
Just because the last dynasty was imminent, Wang Zhi didn't have time to reprimand his grandson, and only thought about it after he came back from the court. But I never thought that someone would still use this to say something. Seeing that the attitude of the emperor and the ministers was the same, Wang Zhi hesitated slightly, and then took a step forward to speak for Yang Chendong.
"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that Lord Wang Zuo's words are very appropriate. Young man, who doesn't have a time when he is young and frivolous, and the content of Yang Xima's song has nothing to do with the court situation, please give him a chance for the sake of his meritorious work. After Wang Zhi finished speaking, he also took the wat board and fell to his knees with a thud.
"Although what Yang Xima did sounds ridiculous, it is actually just a joke among young people, and the minister thinks that there is no need to discuss it in the court at all, and the old minister asks the emperor not to pay too much attention to it." Hu Hu, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, also knelt down on the ground slowly.
As the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, he thinks that Yang Chendong's actions do not violate the etiquette system, so naturally it is even more difficult for others to say anything. With his words, it was the three important ministers of Shangshu who spoke for Yang Chendong.
There were three lords in front of them, and the other ministers fell to their knees one by one, and cried in their voices.
Even Wang Zhen, who was standing next to the emperor, also took the opportunity to whisper to Zhu Qizhen: "Your Majesty, Yang Xian Ma's matter is harmless at all, and there is no need to pursue it." You Shengming can let him go to the restaurant to do business, just sing a few tunes, what's the matter. You can be completely arbitrary, and you should also give praise if you say it, and the matter can be passed. ”
The Immortal Residence is about to open, but there is a share of Wang Zhen's shares? I don't know how much more income I will have that month, if something happens now, the Immortal Residence will definitely be affected, which is tantamount to hurting my own interests, so I naturally have to stand up and speak.
The ministers pleaded, and Wang Zhen's words were there, and Yingzong knew it in his heart. After a slight forehead, the voice came out loud, "What the minister said makes sense. Yang Xima is just young and active, plus when he first arrived in Beijing, everything is fresh, and it is reasonable to do something slightly out of line, so there is no need to ask in detail. As for Xu Dushi, he is serious and responsible, and he is praised, and he is allowed to take the position of the Metropolitan Procuratorate Experience Department. ”
The experience of the Metropolitan Procuratorate is the official position of the sixth grade, which is equivalent to a two-level promotion compared to the original Metropolitan Seventh. This can be regarded as an explanation to this person.
At that moment, all the ministers were overjoyed, and they all shouted the emperor's sage.
Just when everyone thought that the matter had been resolved and all the ministers wanted to get up, who wanted to be the newly promoted Yushi Xu Youzhen continued to knock his head on the ground and asked: "Your Majesty, if Yang Xima continues to sing high lyrics in the future, can it be regarded as an exception and not pursued?" ”
The emperor has promoted you, but you still have to bite the bullet and hold on to things, this is not going to do things, you can't be a man, and for a while, some courtiers looked at him with a bit of sternness in their eyes.
Xu Youzhen didn't feel like this to them before, this person is exquisite, very good at things, and transferring him to the Metropolitan Procuratorate is just an experience, a means to accumulate qualifications, but how can this person be so tendonous today? Do you have to make the emperor unhappy?
At this meeting, Yingzong was indeed a little angry when asked. Seeing that Xu Youzhen still wanted to hold on to the matter, he reprimanded loudly: "I said, Yang Xima is young and active, and versatile, and the story in Yang Bao is exactly what he did, even if he writes a story that can be accepted by everyone, how can he sing a tune?" In the future, there is no need to report such a thing, and if you have the time, it is better to pay more attention to the suffering of the common people, and go to see if the ministers are doing their duties with all their hearts. ”
Obviously, this is Yingzong's opinion on the Metropolitan Procuratorate, which caused Chen Yi, the imperial history of the right capital, to bow his head and remain silent, not daring to say more.
Feeling that Yingzong seemed to be angry, the other courtiers naturally didn't dare to say more. Only Xu Youzhen didn't know where the courage came from, so he knelt down and shouted, "The minister knows, and in the future, if there is anything about Yang washing horses, he will not report it." ”
"Humph!" Yingzong also stared at Xu Youzhen angrily, and then without waiting for Wang Zhen to shout anything to retreat from the court, he got up and strode away from the dragon chair.
The ministers also left with the departure of the emperor, even Chen Yi, the imperial historian of the right capital, did not bother with his subordinate Xu Youzhen, who was still kneeling on the ground, and also left with the ministers. Soon there were only two people left in the entire court.
One is Xu Youzhen, who is kneeling on the ground, and the other is Yu Qian, the left attendant of the military department, who seconded it.
"Xu Experience, hurry up, the emperor and the ministers have left." Stretched out his hand to help Xu Youzhen up, and Yu Qian looked admiring at this time.
Yu Qian is upright, even as powerful as Wang Zhen, he has never bowed his head, and the other party can't help him. It is very difficult for such a person to admire others. But now, Xu Youzhen has done it.
was helped up by Yu Qian, Xu Youzhen was a little flattered, "Lord Yu, thank you, thank you." ”
"Xu doesn't have to be like this, but I should thank you a lot. The imperial history should be like Xu Experience, not afraid of power, and when he hears the news, he will do something, even if the person who is pointed out has made monstrous achievements. When he said these words, Yu Qian was righteous and righteous, and his face was serious.
Not only did he say that, but he actually always did things that way. It's just that he didn't notice that Xu Youzhen at this moment was indeed ashamed, only he knew why he did this today, his heart was far from being as holy as Yu Qian looked like, on the contrary, it was still very dirty.
It's just not humane!
"Lord Yu is too humble, too humble." Xu Youzhen, who had a layer of cold sweat on her body, was afraid that she would unconsciously show her feet if she stayed, so she hugged her fists and left.
Leaving Yu Qian standing alone on top of the court, his eyes looked into the distance, as if he had penetrated the entire imperial city, penetrated the entire Jingshi, and arrived at Yangjiazhuang in the south of the city, muttering to himself, "Yang Chendong, Yang Chendong, first made a Yang Bao, controlled a certain public opinion orientation, and then made such a movement as soon as he arrived in Beijing, what did you think in your heart?" Are you an official or a businessman? Is it loyalty or treachery? ”
