Chapter 277: Impeachment (Part I)
With Yu Shiyue's identity as the secretary of the Criminal Department, even if Li Wenxiao's case was handled by the Criminal Department, how to minimize the impact and take himself out, there must be no need for others to say, what should he do. And as long as Li Wenxiao retorts and refuses to admit what he said about Yu Shiyue before, presumably the matter will be made small, at least this criminal department secretary can still be saved.
"The emperor is wise." Jin Ying, who hadn't thought of a better way, immediately lit up when she heard Zhu Qiyu's suggestion.
Zhu Qiyu didn't want to move Yang Chendong before, because he wanted to see what kind of performance the Japanese envoy would have, and then made a decision. But now, when Yu Shiyue's matter happens, all plans will be interrupted, and it is also a feasible move to use this matter to divert everyone's attention.
"Very good, Jin Aiqing can do it, you can contact more people, just say that I mean." Zhu Qiyu rubbed his forehead with his hand and said with a headache.
Borrowing ministers to deal with ministers is one of the common tricks of imperial power. After all, the high position is originally a radish and a pit, and if you want to be on the top, you not only need to have the ability and wisdom, but also have good opportunities and a position. This is the fundamental reason why other courtiers are willing to attack their colleagues. Only when someone else goes down, do you have a chance to get on top?
It's just that Zhu Qiyu didn't know that it was too early to use the imperial historian to move Yang Chendong, but it was equivalent to doing the other party a big favor.
After Jin Ying got Zhu Qiyu's permission, he left in a hurry, and soon found Jin Lian, the secretary of the household department, the secretary of the military department, Shi Pu, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, and Shi Heng, the marquis of Wuqing. After everyone learned the emperor's meaning, they automatically used their own energy to start asking the officials who listened to them to write impeachment notes.
Among them, the busiest is Chen Yi, the right capital of Yushi.
When the position of the imperial history of the left capital was free, Chen Yi naturally became the leader of the imperial history of the capital, managing the specific matters of impeachment of the imperial historians.
And it was in this afternoon that suddenly more than seventy percent of the imperial historians were recitaled, and they all said one thing, that is, the matter of the loyal and courageous duke destroying the Japanese mission, demolishing its courtyard gate, and whipping the envoys.
The imperial historians all believe that the Ming Dynasty is a great country, and it should have an incomparably broad mind and bearing. It is really not advisable to use force to suppress the envoys of other countries in this way, and it has lost the face of the Ming Dynasty, and it should be severely punished.
With so many imperial histories involved at the same time, the news had long since spread and soon reached the ears of the ministers.
In the Hu Mansion, Hu Changning, as Yang Chendong's father-in-law, went to his father's study as soon as he learned the news, and met Hu Hu, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, here.
Regarding his son's rash entry, Hu Hu naturally knew what he meant, "At such an old age, and still so reckless, don't you know what it means to be decided after a major event?" ”
"Yes, Father. My son was wrong, it's just that so many people impeached Chendong, I'm really worried that something will happen. Hu Changning first admitted his mistake, and then said his worries in one breath. To say that his daughter married Yang Chendong, he was both satisfied and apprehensive.
Satisfied, there are really no young people like Yang Chendong, and it is indeed a great blessing for a daughter to marry him as a main room.
But at the same time, it is precisely because Yang Chendong is too young and his contributions are too great, but this father-in-law has been worrying about him. It is said that the wood is beautiful in the forest, and the wind will destroy it. But why doesn't the son-in-law know how to be more restrained? Is it not good to stay in Yangjiazhuang honestly with money and power? Why do you have to come out to make the wind and rain, and you have to intervene in everything? It's good now, so bold that even foreign envoys dare to fight, and it's no wonder that those imperial historians will jointly impeach.
"What will happen? Do you think your son-in-law is you? Don't use your brain when you encounter something, you can't do it without calm? Hu Hu said casually.
He has been a scholar for many years, and he has been an official for many years, and he has long been accustomed to seeing strong winds and waves, and he has seen through the things in front of him at a glance.
Why didn't anyone say anything about what happened yesterday this morning, and it would take a day for the partiality to move? If there is no problem with this, then he doesn't believe it.
Thinking about it, when news came out that Xu Youzhen interrogated Li Wenxiao and got the result, Hu Hu figured everything out. This is clearly a method of transfer, and the target can only fall on Yang Chendong.
Even if it is a method of transfer, it does not have a clear purpose. If that is the case, what is there to worry about? It's nothing more than when things get big, Yang Chendong stands up and apologizes.
Of course, it is not that there is no worry, that is, this grandson-in-law Yang Chendong is a young man, and whether he can lower his noble head is what he cares about.
"Well, this time Chendong is just affected. If you are worried, go to Yangjiazhuang and tell him that it is said that the old man said it, and when you should bow your head, it is nothing, let alone a piece of meat. Hu Hu thought that he still needed to remind Yang Chendong, so he put the errand on his son.
"Oh, got it, father." Although Hu Changning didn't understand what was going on. But even after saying this, there must be no big deal, so after agreeing, the horse prepared and went straight to Yangjiazhuang.
In the Wang Zhi study of the Ministry of Officials, he sat there with a long sigh.
With his connections, he already knew about Li Wenxiao admitting everything and biting out Shangguan Yu Shiyue. Then I heard the fact that the imperial history jointly impeached Yang Chendong. In this regard, he is guilty of choosing a difficult disorder.
This time, the incident was obviously caused by his grandson Wang Si. It is said that he should be on Yang Chendong's side, in the face of the impeachment of the imperial history, he only needs to poke out the matter of Li Wenxiao in the morning tomorrow, I believe that everyone's attention will be diverted soon, so that the loyal and courageous prince should be fine. But he has to face the emperor's dissatisfaction, and even Yu Shiyue's targeting.
Once the emperor is dissatisfied, he will only walk on thin ice when he starts to do things in the future, and if he is not careful, he will never recover, which is very likely.
On the contrary, if he didn't do anything for his own status, Yang Chendong would be in a lot of trouble. At least a public apology is a must, and then he will face the punishment of Emperor Daizong, and he can't guess how far it will go.
One does nothing for the sake of himself, and the other puts himself in danger for the sake of returning the favor.
How should it be done, Wang Zhi at this moment really doesn't know what to do.
The hustle and bustle of the world is for profit, and the hustle and bustle of the world is for profit.
Wang Zhi has been an official for many years, and he naturally understands the truth of self-preservation. But Zhi'en Tubao was not unaware, and in the end he still made a painful decision, that is, the imperial history who was good friends with him greeted them and asked them to wait and see what happened, and not to get involved in this matter. But at the same time, he didn't show evidence to stare at Li Wenxiao, and Li Wenxiao told the story of biting Yu Shiyue again.
In short, he didn't help each other, and he didn't mean to get involved in this matter.
If the two don't help each other, it is actually equivalent to helping Yang Chendong. After all, compared to the imperial power and the four great Shangshu, it is already very rare for Wang Zhi to remain neutral.
When Yang Chendong learned of Wang Zhi's performance, he nodded very satisfied in his bedroom. This is a good start, and if it continues, he is confident that one day, this official will be of great use to himself. As for the impeachment of the imperial historians, when did Yang Chendong put them in his eyes again, and it won't be long before he will slap these people hard with practical actions.
The left deputy capital of the imperial history platform, Dong Chunhua, is the official position of the third product.
Seeing that the Imperial History Observatory did not have the Imperial History of Zuodu, his desire to go further was very strong. And he has enough qualifications, all he lacks now is an opportunity.
took out a lot of belongings and exchanged them for silver tickets from the Yang Family Bank and gave them to the eunuch Jin Ying, and after paving the road, he was just waiting for an opportunity. And now, the opportunity has appeared, such a large-scale impeachment of a national duke, and it is still the emperor's order, the four Shangshu and the military governor Shi Heng are also involved, if the performance is good, it will be just around the corner.
It happened that Chen Yi, the imperial history of the right capital, did not seem to be active in this matter, and Dong Chunhua, who saw the opportunity, took the initiative to stand up, integrated the music with the imperial history, and became the happiest and most motivated person in this incident.
In the early morning of the next day, in the main hall of the imperial palace, a group of about 30 imperial historians led by Dong Chunhua stood up at the same time, declaring that the loyal and courageous Yang Chendong was bold and brave, beating the Japanese envoys, and destroying the image of the Ming Dynasty.
Dozens of people told similar crimes one after another, and there was really a feeling that the wall was falling down and everyone was pushing it. The fierce words, the sharp language, there is a kind of Yang Chendong is the biggest scourge, if you don't get rid of it, I'm afraid that the whole Ming Dynasty will not be at ease from now on.
Daizong Zhu Qiyu sat high on the throne, his expression seemed to be plain, but he was extremely happy in his heart. The official heart is available, even if Yang Chendong has made a lot of contributions, but when the wind direction changes slightly, that sense of wind and rain can still knock down any courtier lightly.
For a long time, Zhu Qiyu didn't say anything, but he was afraid of this courtier with high merit that was almost shocking. This feeling once made him not think about tea, didn't want to eat, and also made him unable to grasp the heart of the ministers, and he was not sure how many courtiers would stand on his side if it was really targeted, if he really became a loner, then the emperor was afraid that he was not far from stepping down.
