There is generally a tacit understanding between officials. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

It's the following thing, try not to poke it to the top, and everyone try to digest it internally as much as possible.

Over time, the so-called officialdom culture has been formed, which is called bullying the superior but not concealing it.

For example, Lin Yanchao asked Zhang Juzheng to act cheaply this time, and then deliberately corrected the decree in front of the palace, falsely conveying the holy will to forgive the sin of the scholar.

Officials who heard about this matter would not pursue it.

It's not that Lin Yanchao's pretension is legitimate, because Zhang Juzheng is in charge of regent power and is in charge of state affairs, and this time he can also be arbitrary when dealing with the matter of the scholars. But after all, he did not grant Lin Yanchao the power to make corrections, which is the right only the emperor, for example, the emperor authorized the ministers to act cheaply, and they did not ask for holy orders in urgent matters.

However, because everything is urgent, everyone will not take it seriously, after all, it is true that Zhang Juzheng and Lin Yanchao are ordered to be in danger, and they can indeed act cheaply. More importantly, the imperial envoy impeached Lin Yanchao on this matter, isn't that the impeachment of Zhang Juzheng?

Which official dares to impeach Zhang Juzheng? You don't want to die? The power of Jingcha assessment is firmly in the hands of Zhang Juzheng.

Therefore, everyone will tacitly not report the matter to the emperor. If you really want to trouble Lin Yanchao, impeaching him for his private doctrine is better than impeaching this matter.

So when Lin Yanchao pleaded to the Son of Heaven and said that he was overbearing. The little emperor was furious at first, but after thinking about it, no, what a big crime it is, why didn't any official report it to him. The only answer, then, is that the officials acquiesced.

Although I am young, don't fool me with this, do you think I am stupid?

The little emperor's gaze swept over the hall, and all the ministers hung their heads very weakly.

Well, there really is an article in it. The little emperor said in his heart.

At this time, Zhang Juzheng was out of class, and he had not spoken before, but at this moment he had to come forward.

Lin Yanchao glanced at Zhang Juzheng, and his eyebrows moved.

"When Lin Zhongyun asked the minister to open the city to persuade the scholars, he asked him to act cheaply, and the minister agreed to him at that time." Zhang Juzheng said to the emperor.

I see.

The little emperor snorted coldly, if there is really the truth behind it, fortunately, I keep an eye on it, otherwise I will blame Lin Qing's family.

As soon as Zhang Juzheng finished speaking, Zeng Shengwu came out of the class and said: "Your Majesty, although Yuanfu gave Lin Zhongyun the right to cheapen, he did not allow him to correct his will, Lin Zhongyun falsely preached the holy order outside the palace, it was all his own opinion, and the minister implored His Majesty to be clear!" ”

As a general of the Zhang Party, Zeng Xingwu was the first to exonerate Zhang Juzheng.

Zeng Xingwu also has a point, there are many kinds of cheap actions, although he didn't say anything about acting like he crossed the line. Therefore, the correction can be regarded as wrong, or it can be regarded as subordinate, and everything depends on everyone's free mind.

No, Zeng Xingwu woke up suddenly, and now the court is not studying the question of whether Lin Yanchao is guilty, but the question of whether to arrest the scholar who took the lead in making trouble.

Lin Yanchao didn't stab this matter to the court at all, at that time, he was not only innocent, but with his skill in persuading the scholar to knock on the throne this time, he was not only rewarded by the Son of Heaven, but also appreciated by Zhang Juzheng, which was a great achievement.

But he deliberately stabbed in front of the Son of Heaven, that is, he destroyed the tacit understanding between officials, damaged Zhang Juzheng's face, and was condemned by the Son of Heaven, what is the intention?

That is, he is the same as Zhou Ziyi, he would rather bear the guilt himself, and also want the court to pardon the scholars!

This person had already thought of this step when he asked Zhang Juzheng for the right to act cheaply. From the beginning, he didn't expect Zhang Juzheng and other ministers of the court to be able to speak his mind, and he really didn't pursue the matter afterwards.

Instead, he hoped that the Son of Heaven would care about his reputation, so he had to knock out his teeth and swallow them in his stomach, and pardoned these scholars.

As soon as the Son of Heaven opened Chrysostom, there was no joke.

The minister can speak without speaking, but the Son of Heaven cannot, not to mention that this young Son of Heaven is extremely face-saving and bent on being Yao Shun, you want him to go back on his word and have no faith in the world, how can he be willing?

Therefore, Lin Yanchao calculated this, and did not hesitate to treat his own crimes, but also to protect the soldiers.

At this moment, the little emperor couldn't help but hesitate, the words had already been spoken, and it was useless to blame Lin Yanchao at this moment. The dignified emperor, how can he live up to his words.

So the little emperor was helpless, and asked Zhang Juzheng: "What does Mr. Zhang think about this matter?" ”

Zhang Juzheng didn't look at Lin Yanchao, Zhou Ziyi glanced at it and said: "The minister thinks that it is useless to pursue the scholar again, and besides, it is difficult for the gentleman to chase the horse, let alone the Son of Heaven?" ”

"The sacrificial wine is not effective in learning, and it should be responsible, but in the sake of the elders of the three dynasties, it is to allow his invitation to the official, but it will take away the grace of returning to his hometown."

"As for Lin Zhongyun......"

Zhang Juzheng paused.

“…… Today's matter, Lin Zhongyun has merit and sin, but the sin is greater than the merit, and he is proud of his official talent on weekdays, and he has a negative sacred heart, so he can make his crown and belt idle, and order him to go to the Metropolitan Procuratorate to confess his guilt and make a decision. ”

The officials were cold in their hearts, and Zhang Juzheng's handling could be described as iron-blooded and ruthless.

If you want to forcibly keep these scholars before the iron-blooded imperial power, you can!

The imperial court wants to give an explanation to 20,000 officials, big and small, and 300,000 scholars in the world.

Then pay your price to come.

The price offered by Zhang Juzheng was the black gauze hat of an official from the fourth-grade Guozi who supervised the sacrificial wine and the sixth-grade Zhan Shifu.

Zhou Ziyi was dismissed from office, not to mention, but also deprived of the grace of returning to his hometown, such as not being able to live in a post station on the way home, the imperial court did not allocate forced labor, and there was no monthly rice, and all Zhou Ziyi's officials were deprived of their treatment after giving office.

Zhou Ziyi had already begged for a minister, and it was easy to say that he was dismissed, but Lin Yanchao's punishment was heavier, and to stay idle was to retain his official body, but he was removed from all positions in the Hanlin Yuan and Zhan Shifu, and at the same time, he had to go to the Metropolitan Procuratorate to defend himself.

If the Metropolitan Procuratorate thinks that Lin Yanchao has a problem, it will further reduce the crime!

At that time, it was not as simple as sitting idly with a crown belt.

Zhou Ziyi and Lin Yanchao did not hesitate to dismiss themselves, but also in exchange for the innocence of the scholar, is it worth it?

Some people think so, some people don't.

Zhang Siwei shook his head slightly, and Shen Shixing showed an unbearable look.

The little emperor's eyes were a little moist, and he looked at Zhou Ziyi and Lin Yanchao, who were kneeling under the throne. He slowly closed his eyes and spit out two words: "Quasi-play." ”

Thunder Rain Dew is Jun'en!

Lin Yanchao, Zhou Ziyi took off the black gauze hat, raised his head and faced the Son of Heaven on the throne: "Minister Lin Yanchao (Zhou Ziyi) thank Your Majesty!" ”

After the two bowed several times, they lifted their official robes and took a few steps back, turning around and leaving the Wuying Palace.

Outside the Wuying Palace, twilight has fallen on the Forbidden City.

In the distance, the palace wall was shrouded in night, and in the near distance, the honor guard of the Son of Heaven was lined up with a golden gourd halberd in his hand.

The two eunuchs stepped forward, followed by a dozen honor guards. The eunuch said: "Two doctors, let our family send you out of the palace." ”

Zhou Ziyi snorted, and Lin Yanchao arched his hand and said, "I'm tired." ”

The two left the Wuying Palace, and the eunuch guards followed.

Lin Yanchao was one step away from Zhou Ziyi, although the other party was dismissed, he still maintained the officialdom etiquette of the sixth-rank official against the fourth-grade official.

"In addition to the rise and fall of the world, you are responsible for the sentence, and the rest is all utilitarian, which is not enough." Zhou Ziyi said politely.

"It's not utilitarian, it's merit." Lin Yanchao argued.

The eunuchs who monitored Lin Yanchao and Zhou Ziyi and the others who left the palace were all puzzled.

The two of them were robbed of office today, they should have been depressed, otherwise it was normal to have grievances against the court, how could they go out to argue about these irrelevant words.

"The old man doesn't agree with your work and learning."

"The waiter also thought that the twilight of science was heavy."

"When the old man returns home, he will write books and lectures, and reprimand you for learning from your deeds."

"The waiters will also compete with each other."

……

When parting, Lin Yanchao looked at Zhou Ziyi deeply, and Zhou Ziyi nodded.

"Take care of the sacrificial wine!"

"So are you."

Two days later, the Metropolitan Procuratorate.

The Criminal Department, Dali Temple, and the Metropolitan Procuratorate are collectively known as the Three Law Divisions, which are in charge of the criminal law of a dynasty.

These three places are places where officials usually avoid avoiding, and when sedan chairs come here on weekdays, they would rather take a detour than pass through these yamen.

At this moment, outside the gate of the Metropolitan Inspectorate.

An imperial historian personally sent Lin Yanchao out of the door and said: "Shen Ge has already taken care of us, this is just a routine matter, please let Zong Hai relax." ”

Lin Yanchao smiled and said, "I'm tired, it seems that I will have to talk about Fengxian often in the future." ”

"If you say anything, you should come to the Metropolitan Procuratorate to drink tea these days."

After speaking, Yu Shi respectfully sent Lin Yanchao to the carriage.

The carriage drove back to the Lin Mansion.

Chen Jichuan smiled at Lin Yanchao and said, "With the old golden face of the Shen Pavilion, it seems that it won't be long before the master can be reinstated." ”

Lin Yanchao said disapprerovingly: "You only said one word correctly, gold is wanted, noodles are secondary, as long as the dots are in place, even if I correct the edict again, it will not hurt." ”

Chen Jichuan couldn't help laughing, and even Zhanming's wrist shaking three times while driving.

Seeing the reactions of Chen Jichuan and Zhanming, Lin Yanchao couldn't help but say, "Look at you, I'm joking." ”

Chen Jichuan and Zhanming shook their heads and said that this joke was not funny at all.

Halfway through, the carriage stopped.

"What's going on?"

"Master, you better get out of the car and take a look." Zhan Ming's tone was a little surprised.

Lin Yanchao lifted the curtain and saw the scene outside the car, but he was surprised.

Lin Yanchao hurriedly got out of the carriage, and Chen Jichuan followed behind him.

A scholar on the left of the Dao shook to the ground: "Lin Zhiping, a member of the Xuanfu Mansion, has seen Zhongyun!" ”

Lin Yanchao nodded.

"Changping County Juzi Lu Xing has seen Zhongyun!"

"Jifu supervisor Qu Hengjiang has seen Zhongyun!"

"Cangzhou student Jiang Qiming has seen Zhongyun!"

……

As Lin Yantide passed, the scholars on the left and right of the road bowed down like waves.

"Jiangxia Guo Zhengyu has seen Zhongyun!"

"Jiaxing has seen Zhongyun in Dazhong!"

"Jingyang Yu Ren has seen Zhongyun!"

……

The door of the Lin Mansion was pushed open at this time, Xu Huobo, Tao Wangling and more than a dozen people from the Lin Mansion walked out, but they saw that there were many scholars gathered in front of the mansion, and they were making a gesture to Lin Yanchao one by one. There were more scholars in the back, and I didn't have time to say them one by one, so I had to reluctantly say a name.

"Yue Feng." The scholar is long and long.

"Lin Pinran."

"Zhou Zheng."

……

Xu Huobo, Tao Wangling looked at Lin Yanchao who was walking in the crowd and was proud, this justice is at ease in the hearts of the people! (To be continued.) )
