"Your Majesty, the minister wants to impeach Zuo Lanshan, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, Zuo Lanshan has been valued by His Majesty for many years, leading the important position of the Ministry of Industry, and taking charge of construction projects, which is the most important, but Zuo Lanshan does not want to repay Jun's grace, but repeatedly uses the convenience of his position to form a party for personal gain, suppress dissidents, embezzle and accept bribes, and privately withhold public funds and silver for his own use! All kinds of evil deeds have aroused the public indignation of the government and the opposition, and the minister implores His Majesty to mobilize the three law divisions to interrogate and strictly investigate this matter! ”

Just as Zhao Junchen expected, as soon as the early dynasty began on this day, the "Zhou Party" put on a dignified posture, without any cover-up at all, and impeached Zuo Lanshan of the "Zhao Party" on a large scale. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Moreover, compared with Zhao Zhenghe, who impeached the "Shen Party" yesterday, the "Zhou Party" obviously attaches more importance to the "Zhao Party" today, and when the "Zhou Party" impeached Zhao Zhenghe yesterday, it only encouraged a few imperial historians to appear, and when the "Zhou Party" impeached Zuo Lanshan today, the first person to appear was Du Bai, the imperial history of Zuodu!

Du Bai is now just over fifty years old, but he is very well maintained, he looks like he is only in his early forties, this person has an elegant temperament, graceful demeanor, excellent manners, he is a natural gentleman, and it is the most easy to make people feel good.

As one of the two prefects of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, Du Bai's personal appearance in impeachment was naturally very different, and it immediately caused a shock among hundreds of officials!

At the same time, seeing that Du Bai actually stood on the position of the "Zhou Party" with a clear banner, many officials were secretly surprised and only felt incredible.

On the other side, after Zhao Junchen saw Du Bai's statement, he was not surprised, but with a sneering look on his face, he secretly thought, "Oh? Du Bai finally couldn't help but show his true face? I thought that Du Bai would continue to lurk, but I didn't expect that Zhou Shangjing would not hesitate to use Du Bai's hole card in order to target me...... You really look up to me! ”

At the beginning, under the joint calculation of Zhao Junchen and Zhou Shangjing, the crown prince Zhu and Yu planted a big heel in the preparation of the southern tour, not only his own virtuous name was lost, but also affected Li Chengru, the imperial history of the left capital of the Imperial Palace, so that the position of the imperial history of the left capital fell into the hands of Du Bai of the "Zhou Party". The party's control over the Metropolitan Procuratorate has dropped dramatically.

This Du Bai is also a very decisive figure, after he served as the imperial history of the Zuodu, he saw that the various forces in the Metropolitan Procuratorate were intertwined, and the relationship of interests was also complicated, and he had the label of "Zhou Party" on his head, and he was a newcomer, and he would inevitably be boycotted by all forces, so Du Bai quickly expressed his position in public, declaring that "the Metropolitan Procuratorate is in charge of the power of supervision, impeachment and advice, and must not be confined to the distinction between factions, otherwise how to convince the public", and then categorically broke away from the "Zhou Party".

Zhao Junchen didn't believe Du Bai's behavior, if Du Bai served as the imperial history of the left capital under the support of Zhou Shangjing, he immediately betrayed Zhou Shangjing with a clear banner, then Zhou Shangjing would have taken revenge on him a long time ago, how could he still sit in the position of the imperial history of the left capital? I'm afraid that Du Bai's various attitudes are just expedient measures.

However, although Zhao Junchen did not believe Du Bai's statement, Du Bai's attitude did deceive many people and won a lot of praise, which made him reduce the hostility around him, and also won him a lot of buffer time and space to play.

Today, Du Bai and others of the "Zhou Party" impeached Zuo Lanshan, which may be the beginning of his return to the "Zhou Party".

Du Bai's past experience does not need to be mentioned for the time being.

After Emperor Deqing saw Du Bai's statement, a trace of sarcasm flashed in his eyes, obviously he was also insightful about Du Bai's various pretenses in the past.

However, Emperor Deqing looked surprised on the surface, and asked Du Bai: "Zuo Shangshu is a core minister of the imperial court, and it is not a trivial matter for you to impeach him like this, do you have conclusive evidence?" ”

Du Bai looked like a businessman and replied: "Your Majesty, the minister is well aware of the seriousness of this matter, and has also investigated in detail in advance, and has collected a total of 21 pieces of criminal evidence, involving Zuo Lanshan's suppression of dissidents, embezzlement of public funds, soliciting bribes, withholding local ICBC and other seven crimes, please review Your Majesty!" ”

After speaking, Du Bai took out a piece of music from his sleeve, held it on his head, and presented it to Emperor Deqing.

After Emperor Deqing got the recital, he opened it and reviewed it in detail for a while, then looked up at Zuo Lanshan, and at the same time handed Du Bai's recital to Zuo Lanshan through the eunuchs around him, and asked with a serious expression: "Zuo Shangshu, what do you have to say about Lord Du's various impeachments against you?" ”

After Zuo Lanshan took the note with both hands, he hurriedly lowered his head and read it carefully, so as to hide his panicked look.

In advance, Zuo Lanshan already knew that the "Zhou Party" was very likely to impeach himself today, but after all, the target of the "Zhou Party" might also be Huo Zhengyuan, so Zuo Lanshan inevitably had some luck mentality, hoping that the "Zhou Party" would impeach Huo Zhengyuan first, and then under Zhao Junchen's counterattack, the attention of the officials would be diverted, and he could avoid being directly involved in this political storm.

Now, after seeing Du Bai come out to impeach himself, the luck in Zuo Lanshan's heart was suddenly shattered, although he was mentally prepared, but he was inevitably a little panicked when the matter came.

Taking the opportunity to check the recital, Zuo Lanshan finally calmed down the panic in his heart, and finally remembered Zhao Junchen's pre-arrangement.

So, after handing over the song to Emperor Deqing, Zuo Lanshan also had a serious face and said: "Your Majesty, all the impeachments of Lord Du against the ministers are all false, and the ministers will never dare to admit it!" ”

Speaking of this, Zuo Lanshan's words changed, but he turned from defense to offense, showing an impassioned appearance, and said: "Moreover, the minister suspects that Lord Du's impeachment today is because a certain senior member of the court wants to take revenge on Yu Chen, and Lord Du is either used or driven, so there will be today's impeachment!" ”

As Zuo Lanshan's words fell, the hundred officials in the Imperial Palace were in an uproar!

Zuo Lanshan will be impeached by the "Zhou Party", this is something that many people expected, after Zuo Lanshan was impeached, he will inevitably refuse to admit his guilt, which is also the result that hundreds of officials can guess, but after Zuo Lanshan refused to admit his mistake, he actually refused to give in an inch and counterattacked, not only claiming that Du Bai's impeachment was driven by others, but also alluding to a certain big man of the "Zhou Party" to take revenge on himself, and put on a posture of insisting on fighting to the death with the "Zhou Party", but it was beyond everyone's expectations.

You must know that even the first assistant Shen Changmao and the "Shen Party" are intimidated by the power of the "Zhou Party", and after encountering the impeachment of the "Zhou Party" yesterday, they are all looking like "they dare not fight back after being beaten, and they dare not fight back when they are scolded", why is the attitude of the "Zhao Party" so fierce today!?

Except for Emperor Deqing himself, how many years has no one dared to compete with the "Zhou Party"?

Seeing this scene, I was shocked, but the officials had different ideas!

The "Zhou Party" has finally encountered a challenge! But can the "Zhao Party" get out of the way? -- Some officials who have such thoughts are thoughtful and focused!

The two tigers are fighting, and there is going to be a good show next! - Some officials who have such thoughts have a faint excitement on their expressions!

Under the conflict between the two factions, the temple is probably going to be in chaos! -- Some of the officials who think this way are mostly worried.

And after Emperor Deqing saw this scene, a trace of pride flashed in the depths of his eyes.

Emperor Deqing also thought that the reason why Zuo Lanshan dared to fight back against the "Zhou Party" today was because he secretly expressed his stance to Zhao Junchen yesterday.

Emperor Deqing had the intention of letting the "Zhou Party" and the "Zhao Party" confront each other, so after he heard Zuo Lanshan's counterattack, he didn't wait for Du Bai to refute it, so he asked very cooperatively: "Oh? Zuo Shangshu thinks that his impeachment is revenge? What's going on? Let's take it into detail! ”

Zuo Lanshan's expression was full of solemnity, and he replied in a loud voice: "Your Majesty, the minister overheard a secret news a few days ago, in the west market of the capital, there is a family named ' Huaigufang's antique shop, all kinds of antiquities in this antique shop, are not worth mentioning fake and shoddy things, at most they are worth one or two hundred taels of silver, but these fake and shoddy things, but they are all very high prices, often a simulated Song Dynasty antique, in this store can be sold for seventy or eighty thousand taels of silver sky-high price, much higher than the price of real Song Dynasty antiquities, and there are many people competing to buy, but it is also a miracle! ”

After hearing Zuo Lanshan's words, Emperor Deqing's eyes flashed, and he said slowly: "Oh? Is this indeed a strange thing, that so many people are competing to be deceived? Didn't react after being deceived? ”

Zuo Lanshan replied: "The minister also felt strange, after all, most of the people who could take out tens of thousands of taels of silver to buy antiques were wealthy, had a deep background, and knew this well, and they could never all be fools, and it was impossible for them to be completely unresponsive after being deceived, so the minister sent someone to secretly investigate the matter, only to find out that the owner behind this 'Huaigufang' was a powerful court minister, and those. Most of the customers of the 'nostalgic shop' are officials from the DPRK and China, who ostensibly buy antiques, but in fact they use this to bribe the important minister of the court in order to seek benefits in the officialdom! And that important minister of the court has been using such tricks to accumulate money and use power for personal gain! ”

After a pause, Zuo Lanshan continued: "In addition to secretly investigating this matter, the minister also collected some evidence, but the minister is the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, and is only responsible for the construction of the imperial court, and this matter is not within the scope of the minister's responsibility, so the minister planned to hand over the evidence to the Metropolitan Procuratorate, but he didn't expect to leak the news, so that the owner behind the 'Huaigufang' got the news, so he secretly threatened the minister, saying that if the minister dared to stab this matter to the Metropolitan Procuratorate, he would retaliate against the minister!" But the minister is loyal to His Majesty, how could he indulge such a beetle because of some threat? Therefore, the minister handed over all the clues he had the day before yesterday to the left deputy of the Imperial Palace, Situ Han, but he didn't expect to be impeached by a trumped-up today, so the minister thought that this matter was the revenge of a certain court official! I hope that Your Majesty will be clear! ”

Hearing this, the expressions of all the officials in the court and the central government changed greatly, and the eyes of many officials were even aimed at Song Qiwen, the secretary of the ministry, intentionally or unintentionally.

Under everyone's attention, Song Qiwen, who has always had a calm expression, has a serious face.

At the level of Shangshu and Ge Lao, it is naturally impossible to scavenge land like local officials, and it is impossible to directly ask for bribes from others.

Therefore, when these core ministers of the court were accumulating money, they also had their own tricks and tricks.

The existence of this "nostalgic place" is an open secret in the officialdom, and the master behind it is Song Qiwen, the secretary of the ministry! For many years, Song Qiwen has been collecting bribes and trading power for money through this "nostalgic place"! If local officials want to go through Song Qiwen's door, they have to go to the "Huaigufang" in the west market of the capital to buy an antique, which is also a well-known rule!

Now, after Zuo Lanshan was impeached, he suddenly came up with the matter of "Huaigufang", and the meaning is obvious!

Zuo Lanshan is the second person of the "Zhao Party", and Song Qiwen is the second person of the "Zhou Party"! Since the "Zhou Party" impeached Zuo Lanshan, then the "Zhao Party" will impeach Song Qiwen!

All in all, in this battle, the "Zhao Party" will not give an inch!
