West Garden, Wanshou Palace.

This majestic palace is brightly lit, guarded by several tall and mighty Han generals in front of the door, and there are eunuchs and palace maids constantly coming in and out, carefully waiting for the irritable Jiajing.

Jiajing loves cleanliness very much, and will bathe every day in the summer, sometimes several times a day. Just after bathing, he changed into a blue robe and came to the long desk in the office.

Because of his belief in Taoism, he has already removed the table and chairs, and prefers to sit cross-legged in front of the desk to deal with the slack. The music of the two capitals and thirteen provinces are gathered here, and he will dispose of them one by one.

Among the twelve eunuchs, the celebrant has a prominent position, because this department is closest to the "red power". If the emperor is neglected or tired of government, the celebrant will approve the red for the emperor, which can interfere with the central decision-making or personnel appointments.

It's just that in the Jiajing Dynasty, its authority was greatly reduced, and it is now more like a secretarial department. The master of ceremonies and the master of ceremonies Huang Jin is like a chief housekeeper of internal affairs, and the four eunuchs of the master of ceremonies are secretaries.

Tonight, two eunuchs, Chen Hong and Feng Bao, assisted Jiajing in handling the recitals, and at this time the two had already classified the recitals, classifying them according to their priorities, and sending them to the cabinet for ordinary affairs.

In the past, all the notes were directly handed over to Yan Song. It's just that as Yan Song is getting old, and Xu Jie has won the appreciation of the saint for rebuilding the Wanshou Palace, he already has the momentum to fight against Yan Song.

"What's the matter today?"

After Jiajing sat down cross-legged, he asked directly.

Chen Hong's qualifications are far better than Feng Bao, who is only nineteen years old, and he is in charge of Dongchang, and he is the second largest power supervisor at the moment, so he responded unequivocally: "Master Qiqi, news has just come from Guangdong, Zhang Lian's remnants of the party have been eradicated, and it is now Hainei Heqing." ”

"Hmmm! Guangdong can be stable, and Hu Zongxian has contributed a lot! Jiajing's face softened slightly, and he immediately praised him.

Chen Hong saw that the saint was in a good mood, so he said seriously: "The commander of the Guangdong Metropolitan Division made Huang Hui impeach Zhang Zhen, the governor of Liangguang, for not being a military talent, and asked to be deposed!" ”

"Leave it to the Ministry of War!" Jiajing's brows frowned slightly, and he immediately gave instructions. On the matter of exterminating Zhang Lian, Zhang Zhen really did not make any efforts, and did not intend to be partial to this kind of impeachment, but decided to listen to the opinions of the Ministry of War.

"Yes!" Chen Hong immediately agreed, but he gave Feng Bao next to him a look.

Feng Bao showed a bitter look on his face, and he didn't think that he, a "full" eunuch with a pen, had the qualifications to compete with Chen Hong, so he honestly recorded the matter.

Many times, he is not like the secretary of the saint, but more like the secretary of Chen Hong.

Chen Hong took out a piece of stuff from the song, handed it over respectfully, and said: "Master, the yamen of the Criminal Department is surrounded by hundreds of people, and Cai Yuncheng, the secretary of the Criminal Department, urgently sent a complaint in front of the gate of the palace, please take a look at it!" ”

Hey?

When Jiajing heard that hundreds of people in the capital were besieging the yamen of the Criminal Department, he immediately took the complaint seriously.

Water can carry a boat, but it can also capsize a boat.

Although he is the Son of Heaven of all the people in the world, once the public opinion has a demand, he must take it seriously. Whether it is for the stability of the Ming Dynasty or for his personal reputation, he needs to give an explanation to the people of the world.

"Lin Wenkui?"

Jiajing looked at the complaint and found that it was Lin Haoran, who was on the cusp of the limelight, his face was stunned for a while, but then a little resentment surged in his heart, and he already had the idea of disposing of Lin Haoran.

Previously, he remembered Lin Haoran's various exploits in Guangdong, and also remembered that he was indeed young and would inevitably make some mistakes, so in the face of the impeachment of Gao Yao and others, he had no intention of dealing with Lin Haoran.

But now, the matter involves the demands of the people in the capital, although I don't know what big hole Lin Haoran has poked again, and now Lin Haoran must be dealt with to return an explanation to the people of the capital.

The most important thing is that if the hundred officials impeach Lin Haoran, he can still protect Lin Haoran. It's just that when it comes to public opinion, even if he is stubborn and self-serving, he still has to give a good image to the people of the world.

Jiajing's good impression of Lin Haoran is gone, and he is ready to severely punish Lin Haoran. It's just that after he read the content of the lawsuit, the whole person was stunned at first, and then said loudly: "Interesting! It's really interesting! ”

Chen Hong and Feng Bao were below, Chen Hong was relatively calm, but Feng Bao's eyes were full of doubt. He had just learned about that complaint, and Chen Hong didn't show it to him at all just now.

It was at this time that Huang Jin led several palace maids with plates in, and persuaded with concern: "Master, don't be angry, it's time to use the elixir!" ”

Jiajing has always attached great importance to taking the elixir, so he put down the complaint in his hand, raised his eyelids and glanced at Huang Jin, and said calmly: "I'm not angry, I just think things have become extremely interesting!" ”

Interesting?

When Feng Bao heard this adjective, his face became even more puzzled, and he found that the corners of Chen Hong's mouth were slightly upturned, and suddenly everything was expected.

"Master, how is it interesting?" Huang Jin knelt down in front of Jiajing, brought over the elixir that had been poured on the jade plate, and inquired curiously.

Jiajing stretched out his hand and picked up two pills from the white jade plate, and replied playfully: "The ministers of the Manchu Dynasty have accused Lin Wenkui of mishandling Huang Langzhong's case, and they are all justified!" ”

"Isn't it? Even Yan Ne said this, that case was indeed improperly judged by Lin Wenkui! Huang Jin handed over the water glass and replied suspiciously.

Jiajing put the two pills in his mouth, swallowed the water in the cup into his stomach, and then pointed to the complaint on the case and said: "This is the people's complaint just sent by the Criminal Department, take a look!" ”

"Minions command!" Huang Jin respectfully took the water glass, and then responded respectfully.

He reached out to pick up the complaint on the case, but glanced at Chen Hong and found that the competitor was looking at him playfully. He couldn't help but have more doubts in his heart, but he didn't know what had happened, so he looked at his godson Feng Bao again, but what he got was a blank face.

After Jiajing took the pill, he sighed and said, "It's difficult! Difficult! It's hard to be an emperor, and it's also difficult to be an official! ”

Huang Jin listened even more confused, that is, he unfolded the complaint and quickly read the content. When the waiter read the contents, his eyes widened in surprise, and his mouth was wide enough to hold an egg.

Hey?

Feng Bao has been paying attention to his godfather Huang Jin, and he looked at the complaint suspiciously. I don't know what the content of this complaint is, but it makes the saint find it interesting and makes Huang Jin dumbfounded.
