In this way, the moon rises and the moon sets, and the undercurrent is turbulent, and the time is already in the early morning of the next day.
When Zhao Junchen got off the sedan chair outside the noon gate, Zuo Lanshan, Zhan Shanchang and other Zhao Junchen's henchmen all hurried up and gathered around Zhao Junchen.
As for the hundred officials who were waiting outside the noon gate, after seeing Zhao Junchen appear, they were even more eye-catching, and their eyes kept moving back and forth between Huang Yourong and Zhao Junchen.
Everyone knows that in this morning, Huang Yourong's faction will inevitably fight back, and few people can calculate and understand what kind of changes will occur next, so at this time, outside the noon gate, including the officials of Zhao and Huang's faction, all have solemn expressions.
…………
However, unlike the dignified expressions of the hundred officials, Zhao Junchen's expression at this time was quite calm and calm.
Between the gestures of the friends, Zhao Junchen turned his eyes around, looked around, suddenly smiled, and said: "This morning, all the officials have come, I am afraid that they have all got the news, and they are rushing to see the excitement." ”
It turned out that outside the noon gate at this time, the hundred officials who were qualified to go to the court were rare to gather, not only Huang Yourong and Shen Changmao, who liked to play music on weekdays and always appeared at the last minute, arrived early, such as Feng Po, the secretary of the criminal department, and Cao Wenzhuang, the prince and the prince, who were old and sick, and often took leave from the court, all appeared outside the noon gate at this time.
After hearing Zhao Junchen's words, Zhan Shanchang couldn't help but smile, he was originally slightly nervous, and he couldn't help but relax, and said: "Indeed, when Xia Guan came to the noon gate today, he was also startled, like the prince and the prince Cao Wenzhuang Cao, who had not been in court for nearly half a month, and had been recuperating at home. ”
Zuo Lanshan commented: "Of course, those of us who are officials, in the end, are not afraid of doing the wrong thing, nor are we afraid of offending people, and even to make it clear, even if it is corruption and bribery, and using power for personal gain, it is not a big deal, but what I am most afraid of is that we choose the wrong position and stand on the wrong team, then it will really be a catastrophe, and now Lord Zhao, you are fighting with the old Huangge, there must be changes in the shape of the central government, if they don't come to witness it, personally observe the changes in the shape of the shì, and consider the future position, how can they be at ease?" ”
Gu Quan looked admiring, nodded and said: "What Zuo Shangshu said is reasonable, and he breaks through the essence in one sentence, which is the truth." ”
Zhao Junchen glanced at Zuo Lanshan, shook his head and said softly: "Although the truth is the truth, but the words cannot be said clearly, the reason why the reputation of those Qingliu people is good is because the reason they speak is always high-sounding, let's think about our own reputation in the future, we must also learn from them." ”
Zuo Lanshan said with a smile: "Lord Zhao is reasonable, I usually don't dare to say these words, isn't it because in front of Lord Zhao?" Naturally, they only tell the truth. ”
Hearing Zuo Lanshan say this, Zhao Junchen couldn't refute it, just shook his head and smiled.
Just in the middle of chatting with his friends, Zhao Junchen suddenly felt that someone was watching him all the time, with undisguised malice in his eyes.
turned his head to look, but he happened to be facing Huang Yourong's eyes.
Seeing Zhao Junchen looking at him, Huang Yourong still did not hide the resentment in his eyes, just smiled coldly, turned his head and stopped looking at Zhao Junchen, as if he was disdainful of Zhao Junchen.
However, Zhao Junchen nodded politely to Huang Yourong, his eyes were also calm and cold, as if he didn't know that there were still grievances and fights between the two.
"Wait and see!"
"I'm waiting."
Between the two eye contact, the meaning contained in it is probably like this.
And at such a time, the bell rang at the noon gate, but it was the time to come, and the hundred officials were ordered, and the early dynasty was about to begin.
…………
Next, hundreds of officials ordered, lined up, entered the palace, and then formed a team, and then entered the Taihe Hall to wait, all the details were cumbersome, and there was no need to mention them.
However, it was said that after the hundred officials entered the Taihe Palace, but after only waiting for a cup of tea, the eunuch Zhang De had already come to the top of the imperial stairs, and called loudly: "Your Majesty has arrived, and the hundred officials bow~"
With Zhang De's shout, Emperor Deqing also slowly appeared in the Taihe Palace.
Seeing that Emperor Deqing appeared so early, most of the officials were stunned for a moment, and then reacted, and hurriedly bowed and shouted "Long live".
Since there was a mistake in the preparation of the southern tour, Emperor Deqing suspected that there were unsubordinate people in the court secretly making trouble, and during this time he was always deliberately showing the dignity of the emperor, and every day in the early court, he always deliberately let the officials wait for a while, and it was extremely rare to appear as early as today.
Obviously, for this party battle between Zhao Junchen and Huang Yourong, not only is it the attention of hundreds of officials, but even Emperor Deqing is very concerned, and maybe he can't wait.
"Zhong Aiqing get up."
After the hundred officials got up, Emperor Deqing also noticed the officials in the Taihe Palace, the personnel were neater than before, and obviously understood the thoughts of the hundred officials, and a trace of mockery and complexity flashed on his face, but then he showed a look of concern and love, and slowly asked: "Oh? I didn't expect to go up this morning, even Mrs. Cao and Feng Shangshu also came, I haven't seen hundreds of officials in the morning court so neat for a long time, Mrs. Cao, Feng Aiqing, I heard that the two of you have been in poor health and have not been able to recover for a long time, are you better now? You are all old ministers, don't force yourself too much. ”
Hearing Emperor Deqing's inquiry, Cao Wenzhuang, the crown prince, and Feng Po, the secretary of the Criminal Department, hurriedly came out of the ranks, thanked the emperor, and declared that his body was fine, and he could go to court normally.
Then, at the very beginning of the early dynasty, the shape shì was as plain as ever, and Emperor Deqing asked the hundred officials about the trial of the prince's departure from Beijing, as well as the progress and details of the review of the examination papers, but between the questions and answers, both the Deqing Emperor and the hundred officials were a little absent-minded, and they were not as detailed as in the past, and they were obviously diverted by the second round between Zhao Junchen and Huang Yourong.
Of course, this is also one of Zhao Junchen's purposes, only by diverting the attention of Emperor Deqing in this way can we avoid all kinds of hidden dangers that may arise between leaving Beijing to handle cases between Emperor Jue Zhu and Yu.
It was only about half a stick of incense, and Emperor Deqing had already finished asking all the things that should be asked, and after glancing at Zhao Junchen and Huang Yourong intentionally or unintentionally, he said: "Do you have anything else to report?" “
As Emperor Deqing's words fell, the eunuch Zhang De hurriedly stepped forward and called loudly: "If there is something to do, play early, and if there is nothing to retreat from." ”
Then, the hundred officials seemed to have a heart in their hearts, and their eyes shifted to Zhao Junchen and Huang Yourong.
They know that after a bland foreplay, the show has finally begun!
…………
Sure enough, as expected by the hundred officials, as soon as the eunuch Zhang De's words fell, one of Huang Yourong's cronies, Zhang Bingwen, the left of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, was already one step ahead of the ranks, and said loudly: "Your Majesty, the minister has something to report." ”
On the other side, Zhao Junchen's friends, Gu Quan, Jin Duode and others, who also served in the Metropolitan Procuratorate, were a step slower, and they had just taken a step, but they were already preempted by Zhang Bingwen, and at this time, under the afterglow of Zhang Bingwen's provocation, they awkwardly withdrew their steps.
Emperor Deqing didn't seem to notice these details at all, and just said, "Oh? What's the matter? Go ahead. ”
Zhang Bingwen raised his voice and said: "Your Majesty, now there are local yamen impeachment of the household department, claiming that the amount of money and grain granted by the household department to the local government is strictly inconsistent, it seems that there is a suspicion of corruption among the household officials, and the minister has also heard that the money and grain granted by the household department to the local government actually require the local officials to bribe half of the kickback, and the household department will approve it in full, and the household department is in charge of the world's money and grain, which is very important, if this situation is true, the people will be damaged, the place will be uneasy, and even your majesty will be unstable in the world, please also ask your majesty to strictly investigate!" ”
Hearing Zhang Bingwen pointing directly at Zhao Junchen's base camp, all the officials were shocked, and understood that Huang Yourong was not leaving the slightest affection for Zhao Junchen.
And as Zhang Bingwen's words fell, Taifu Zhang Cheng was also out of the ranks, his expression was full of worries about the country and the people, and said: "Your Majesty, the old ministers have often heard that now the household yamen is already hiding dirt and dirt, and the officials up and down are all unscrupulously embezzling the money and grain of the imperial court. And as Zhang Yushi said, the household department is in charge of the world's money and grain, it is crucial, if there is a problem with the household department, the world will be turbulent, the old minister thinks, this matter can not be delayed, I implore His Majesty Xià to strictly investigate the household department, let the three law divisions audit the accounts of the household department, find out the truth and falsehood, in order to calm the heart of the world. ”
As Zhang Cheng's words fell, while the officials of Huang Yourong's faction came out one after another to show their support, the rest of the officials were even more shocked.
Over the years, the household department has already heard about the matter of hiding dirt and embezzling money and grain privately, and then think of Zhao Junchen's reputation as a corrupt official, and he does not think it is fake.
In fact, the crown prince Zhu Heyu has mentioned the matter of the household audit many times, but they were all suppressed by Emperor Deqing, and Zhao Junchen also strongly rebounded for this.
But because of this, it also gave the hundred officials an illusion, that is, for Zhao Junchen, the accounts of the household department are his weakness, once it is really checked, then in the face of all kinds of deficits and loopholes, even Emperor Deqing can't protect him.
Now looking at Huang Yourong's faction, they are chasing after the accounts of the household department, and they look like they want to investigate to the end, and all the officials secretly sigh in their hearts: Huang Yourong is worthy of being the cabinet elder for many years, and he has rich experience in party struggle, and this move alone has forced Zhao Junchen to the desperate. And although Zhao Junchen has been gaining momentum recently, compared to Huang Yourong, he is still behind after all.
However, what made hundreds of officials strange was that for the moves of Huang Yourong's faction, Zhao Junchen's faction from Zhao Junchen and below, they were all silent and did not say anything!
