In the seventh year of the calendar, the third day of the ninth month.

Zhao Yumin was sparse in the matter, and impeached Ling Yunyi, the secretary of the Ministry of War, for "conniving at the servants of the family and committing murder in the capital of the first good", please stop.

On the same day, the Guangdong Provincial Inspector Yu Shilin was sloppy, and impeached Ling Yunyi, the secretary of the Ministry of War, for "arrogant and lawlessness, and was ridiculed by the times" when he was the governor of Liangguang; Killing, cool and radical", please.

Zhao Yumin, Lin Yicai, and a branch together, it is normal to impeach officials, but both of them are only Jinshi in Longqing for five years, and their qualifications are very shallow, but at the same time, they impeached the secretary of the military department of the dynasty, and a discerning person can know that there is a problem at a glance.

The struggle in the court is different from leading troops to fight, and generally speaking, it is not popular to use all your strength to fight the lion and the rabbit.

One of the most common ways is to first send a junior official to impeach a minister, and see how the emperor reacts to this matter.

And if the emperor does not react after receiving the recital, it generally means that the minister may have lost the emperor's trust, and then the impeachment can be intensified and more powerful figures can be sent to continue the impeachment until the emperor feels the "crowd of people" and orders the minister to be dealt with.

Of course, generally speaking, after the minister is impeached, he will voluntarily shut his door, either to defend himself or to beg for return. If the emperor, although he has lost trust in the minister, still remembers some old feelings, then he may only approve the resignation by the trend, and usually does not dig deeper, after all, it is customary to give preferential treatment to civil officials, and it is also merciful to save some face for others.

Zhao Yumin and Lin Yicai are the harbingers of this "downfall", the two small stones of "throwing stones to ask for directions".

Here I want to explain a little that in the Longqing five-year examination in history, the chief examiner and deputy examiner were Zhang Juzheng and Lu Tiaoyang, but because of the influence of high pragmatism, Guo Pu finally became the main examiner and Zhang Juzheng was the deputy examiner, so a lot of the Jinshi's seat teachers and room teachers have changed this year.

Zhao Yumin and Lin Yicai are the Jinshi selected by Guo Pu in this year. Among them, Zhao Yumin is a native of Changye, Shanxi, and Lin Yicai is a native of Tong'an, Fujian.

Ling Yunyi rushed to Beijing the day before yesterday, and yesterday he went to see the emperor with trepidation, and was told that the emperor had given a lecture in the Imperial Wenhua Palace, and asked him to postpone coming again.

Many people feel that a good premonition must fail nine times out of ten, and a bad premonition is the opposite, basically nine times out of ten, and the same is true for Ling Yunyi.

He had no way to think about it, because even Shen Shixing, a pavilion elder with a single mind, gave him an ambiguous answer, and he didn't say a word at all, let alone others. So he had no choice but to resign - it is impossible to defend himself, and it is impossible to defend himself in this life, because although Shen Shixing did not give him any guarantees, he told him that he was afraid that he had collided with the two princesses that day.

This is tantamount to being caught and defending yourself! Whether you want to or not, you can only resign as usual.

However, the emperor still seems to be dissatisfied, and the two impeachments went up, and the cabinet voted painlessly to say that Ling Yunyi put down the rebellion in Liangguang, and there was still merit, but for the matter of being impeached this time, the vote did not mention anything.

The emperor's reaction was very emperor, and he did not reply a word. This is the so-called stay in the middle of the hair.

So sure enough, the next day, there was another impeachment, and the impeachment was no different from yesterday, but the people who were impeached had changed, including five people, including Yin Song Zhihan of Shuntian Mansion, and Hu Shu of Shuntian Patrol according to Yushi.

The emperor still didn't react, and Ling Yunyi was panicked and asked for his resignation again.

On the third day, the big drama was finally staged at a critical juncture, and Wang Guoguang, the left capital of the Imperial Palace, personally went out to impeach Ling Yunyi, the secretary of the Ministry of War, for "not being prudent and not doing his job", please stop!

Zuodu Yushi is the first person in the Imperial Procuratorate, known as the General Constitution in the world, is in charge of the inspection of the official constant, participates in the maintenance of the Compendium and discipline, specializes in correcting the impeachment of the hundred divisions, distinguishing the wrongs, supervising the provinces, and is the division of the Son of Heaven's ears, eyes and discipline. Anyone who rapes evil spirits, villains who form a party, and who is a powerful and chaotic politician will be impeached. Anyone who is obscene and corrupt in official discipline shall be impeached. Those who are not academically correct, who have written and made statements into a constitution, and who wish to use them, will be impeached. In case of Hajj and inspection, the same officials and the Ministry of Ministers were deposed. The heavy prisoners of the big prison will be in the outer court, and the punishment department and Dali Temple will be leveled.

The dignified Zuodu Yushi personally came forward to impeach the minister, although it is not an unique thing, but it is indeed rare. As usual, the imperial history of Zuodu came forward to impeach, and the emperor could not continue to pretend to be deaf and dumb, and there must be a reply.

So the emperor's reply came down quickly this time: Ling Yunyi relied on his small skills, acted harshly, arrogantly indulged in lawlessness, and was deeply disappointed. In order to immediately dismiss their posts pending investigation, the Metropolitan Procuratorate and the Criminal Department should select and send cadres to Guangdong, Jiangxi, and other places to conduct thorough investigations and report in detail.

Dismissal pending investigation! Dig deeper!

It is said that most of the court officials did not know that the events of that day involved "colliding with Feng Jia", and only knew that Ling Yunyi was in conflict with the former Guan Zhenggao pragmatism, who was known as the "Little Pavilion Elder" a few years ago, even if Shen Shixing and others, who knew the inside story, stood on the spot after seeing the emperor's imperial pen criticism, and were speechless for a while.

Not to mention Ling Yunyi himself, he was already closed in the palace because of impeachment, and suddenly received such a stern decree, his legs were weak on the spot, and he collapsed to the ground, and finally the angel who was ordered to pass the decree made people "get up and kneel to receive the holy decree".

More than a year ago, due to the death of Gao Gong and the return of Gao pragmatic home, the Gao Party, which almost fell into a dual leadership system, suddenly broke out with amazing lethality after being cautious for a long time, and even made people feel that it was about to fall apart, not only easily bringing down a new scholar, but also so thunderous and unstoppable!

It's not a resignation, it's not a crown and an idle place, it's not even an order, it's a dismissal waiting for investigation!

In the eyes of the vast majority of people, what is the crime committed by Ling Yunyi? Isn't it just a bit of a conflict with Gao Pragmatic for a place to shelter from the rain? Although the actions are indeed excessive, but people are dignified military department scholars, you are pragmatic but the new imperial examination people, even if it is Xie Yuan, so what, that is still a lifting person, not even a jinshi!

But the emperor's disposition was so decisive and merciless!

What does this mean?

In the eyes of these officials who don't know the truth, this can only mean one thing: Gao Pragmatic's status in the eyes of the emperor is far greater than that of Ling Yunyi, the secretary of the military department!

However, there is something more absolute, the emperor's holy edict, the three auxiliary ministers of the cabinet are sloppy according to the routine, and they are inappropriately recommended by Chen, and they resign from their respective positions.

The emperor's reply is still very fast: the secretary and others are upright and upright, and they are recommended by merit, there is nothing wrong, Ling Yunyi is to blame, what does he have to do with the secretary? It is advisable to go out as soon as possible, and it is not allowed to resign.

He also sent another lieutenant to Guo University's scholar's mansion to give two sets of four new books of high pragmatism, two copies of "Zhou Yi" {Gao Pragmatism Benjing}, two lake pens, two boxes of Hui ink, two square inkstones, and two knives of new paper.

When the government and the opposition heard this, they said privately: The Gao Party is still in charge.
