Chapter 426 Chapter 425

Chapter 426 425 Impeachment of Wu Peng

Yuan Wei is really in his prime now. He was moved from the Hanlin Academy and the Zhanshi Mansion to the Ministry of Rites last year. He was ordered to stay in the Ministry of Rites after only one month. Yuan Wei, who had only been in the Ministry of Rites for a month, was transferred to the Ministry of Personnel again.

His speed on the road to entering the cabinet can be said to have made history, and he can no longer find an official who is faster than his promotion. Moreover, his official career is the standard Hanlin path to entering the cabinet, so others cannot ignore it.

The most frustrated person in this will is actually Gao Gong.

Obviously, his movements were one step slower than Yuan Wei.

In terms of promotion of official positions, one step slower, and this failure actually destined to be much behind Yuan Wei.

That night, Wei Guangde heard a little complaint from the drunk Gao Gong, who was complaining that Emperor Jiajing ignored the government and knew that he was obsessed with practicing Taoism, and he also blamed himself for spending less time on Qing Ci and wrote a few masterpieces of Qing Ci to make Emperor happy.

Thinking about it, Yuan Wei has been studying and researching in the Hanlin Academy before, and has been promoted from editor-in-chief of Hanlin Academy to bachelor's degree in the Hanlin Academy.

A few years ago, Emperor Jiajing intended to let Yuan Wei go to the Nanjing Ministry of Rites to serve as the Minister of the Hanlin Academy in Nanjing. Yuan Wei submitted a memorial to resign and was willing to pay his salary as the original official. Emperor Shizong of the Ming Dynasty was overjoyed and immediately promoted Yuan Wei to the bachelor's degree.

Over the years, Yuan Wei has devoted his energy to Qing Ci, and has repeatedly presented his masterpieces to win the favor of the emperor. At this moment, his role finally appeared.

However, Gao Gong only stayed in one night. On the next day, Wei Guangde saw Gao Gong before, and was still energetic and devoted himself to the government affairs of the Ministry of Rites.

Wei Guangde knew that Gao Gong had put his goal again on taking over Wu Shan. Liu Zhong, the impeachment memorial, allowed Wu Shan to stay at home for a long time to avoid suspicion. His resignation has entered the countdown.

At this time, if the Ministry of Rites is managed, Gao Gong feels that he still has a chance.

As for the left minister of the department, Kang Taihe, who was already old, was probably not much better than Zhou Yan's body, and he also submitted a memorial to resign. I think Emperor Jiajing would not give him the Minister of Rites to him.

Therefore, Gao Gong's only competitors are Yan Ne and Li Chunfang, but considering that Li Chunfang has just taken over the Hanlin Academy for more than a month and seems to have little chance, so only Yan Ne is the only opponent left.

At this time, the news that Zhou Yan, the left censor of the Censorate, had already spread in the court and the public, and Wei Guangde also felt keenly that many officials from other provinces seemed to be gloating about this.

The seven yamen with the most powerful central government in the Ming Dynasty, the Six Ministry and the Censorate, may have to be dismissed at once, and they are all from Jiangxi.

This feeling is thanks to Wei Guangde's previous life, but he can only vaguely feel this change when he wears a Jiangxi person in this life.

Sure enough, I don’t know if I had any hints, Kang Taihe, the left assistant minister of the Ministry of Rites, quickly submitted a memorial to resign, and this resignation was quickly ordered by Emperor Jiajing, "He promoted Kang Taihe, the left assistant minister of the Ministry of Works of Nanjing to the Minister of Works."

When Kang Taihe went to Nanjing, he naturally did not go to Nanjing for promotion and used to improve his grades, but actually went to Nanjing for retirement.

What surprised Wei Guangde was that when Kang Taihe received the order to take office in Nanjing, Wu Peng, Secretary of the Ministry of Personnel, submitted a memorial saying that the left minister of the Ministry of Rites was missing and asked to make up for it.

Just like the last time Emperor Jiajing issued a direct edict by Yuan Wei, Emperor Jiajing's instructions were very brief, "No need to recommend it, Yan Ne was promoted to the left minister of the headquarters."

Wei Guangde nodded deeply. Not to mention that these may be the future prime ministers of Qingci, Wei Guangde was very worried that the group of alchemists that Emperor Jiajing favored now could still be favored by the new emperor.

Last year, Tao Zhongwen, a Taoist priest who was once favored by Emperor Jiajing, was named "Fan Baoguo, Honglie, and Zhengfa, Zhengfa, Tongzhen, and Xiaobingyi, who passed away. Emperor Jiajing was very sad and issued a special order to worship the rituals of Shao Yuanjie, and was specially named "Rongkang Huisu".

During those days, Emperor Jiajing was very sad, but His Highness Yu in the mansion was very happy and held a banquet in the palace for several consecutive days.

Although he didn't say the reason, he just asked the officials of the royal palace to come to drink, Wei Guangde also knew that this was because King Yu heard that Tao Zhongwen was dead.

Tao Zhongwen's motto "The Two Dragons Don't Meet" is true or false, but it is because Jiajing and his son have never met each other for twenty years. It would be strange if King Yu didn't hate Tao Zhongwen to the core.

However, today, Wei Guangde and Zhang Juzheng talk about Qing Ci in the court, which is of course a purpose.

"I heard that Liang Menglong and Xu Ge Lao are close to each other?"

Wei Guangde suddenly asked about the topic.

Hearing Wei Guangde's words, Zhang Juzheng immediately concentrated and nodded, "He is also a disciple of the teacher."

"I heard that this time His Majesty denounced the slogans to maintain their wealth and maintain their health in the criticism of the king."

"Well, I heard that this is the case."

"Her Master Xu didn't think about it, so he asked Liang Daren to follow suit and impeach him?"

Wei Guangde and Zhang Juzheng asked and answered questions and kept muttering in a low voice.

When I talked to Zhang Juzheng about the emperor's intention of adjusting the officials of the Six Ministry, it was actually a test by Wei Guangde. First, it was to see whether his judgment was consistent with others, and second, it was today's purpose.

Nowadays, the only one who blocks the obstacles of the Yu Prince's Mansion and the Xu Ge Lao team is left. The Ministry of Personnel, which has the most say among the six ministries, has almost become Yan Shifan's one-man show due to Wu Peng.

Taking advantage of the power of the Ministry of Personnel, the Yan family attracted many people inside and outside the capital to follow their lead.

Now that Emperor Jiajing intends to adjust the six ministries, Wei Guangde feels that the Yan family's power in the Ministry of Personnel should be eliminated.

But he was hesitant about how to do it.

However, when Wei Guangde saw someone using the impeachment memorial against the Minister of Rites, he naturally thought of the official department, and thus learned about the relationship between Liang Menglong and Xu Ge Lao, the ministers.

"Shangshu Wu, I haven't had several impeachment memorials in that year, but my official position is still unchanged."

Zhang Juzheng heard the meaning of Wei Guangde's words and wanted to take advantage of the situation. He still copied Wu Shan's plan to impeach the Minister of Personnel.

However, Wu Peng is different from Wu Shan. There may not be anyone who impeaches Wu Shan throughout the year. It is because of his own reasons, so he can't find a reason to say that he is not.

But Wu Peng is not. He is impeached every year and is as stable as Mount Tai every year, and he is as beautiful as a tumbler in the officialdom.

“Today is different from the past.”

Wei Guangde smiled and said, "The teaching next door will be completed later. You might as well ask King Yu and Lord Yin to talk about it. If it is feasible, we will visit Mr. Xu's mansion later."

Zhang Juzheng nodded. He also recalled the temptation at this moment and understood Wei Guangde's previous temptation.

He only talked about this with his teacher Xu Jie last night. Xu Jie also had his own judgment on the subsequent personnel changes in the court, but he did not consider the position of Minister of Personnel.

In fact, if Wu Peng was not impeached several times in a year, he would not be used to it.

Xu Jie was also used to his stable appearance as an old dog, so he really didn't consider him.

But now, when Wei Guangde suddenly mentioned Wu Peng, Zhang Juzheng had to think about it seriously.

First, he knew that what Wei Guangde said before that Emperor Jiajing denounced the truth of the matter of Kedao. In the past few days, many censors have written letters to impeach the officials. Anyway, they will be shot by anyone who doesn’t like him. The emperor cannot say that he is caring for himself.

Under this trend, it makes sense that the Department of Personnel impeached the Minister of Personnel. In addition, there is no need to collect any evidence to impeach Wu Peng. Just reprint out and modify the past impeachment memorials, and directly impeached the Ministry of Personnel under Wu Peng as "justice is long-term, and whether the virtuous is overwhelmed" to impeach Wu Peng.

The evaluation of "justice is blocked for a long time, and whether the virtuous is planted" is also the unified view of most officials on the Ministry of Personnel, so every impeachment memorial is focused on this.

Another important reason is that Zhang Juzheng was still thinking about whether Wei Guangde said this at this time, the meaning of a message from the palace was to spread it.

Wei Guangde had a connection with the eunuchs around Emperor Jiajing, and Zhang Juzheng was very clear about it. When they conveyed some meanings that the emperor was not easy to make public instructions, they often used people like Wei Guangde.

Zhang Juzheng was not sure whether this idea was thought out by Wei Guangde or was it intentional in the palace?

However, after some calculations, Zhang Juzheng suddenly felt that it was not necessary to impeach Wu Peng.

At this time, no one can say that one is not wrong.

Everyone is impeaching people. If the censor Kedao does not impeach at this time, it means maintaining wealth and maintaining a healthy life, and it means having a simple meal.

As for the result after the impeachment, he succeeded and became famous, but failed and then bowed to Wu Peng. Will Wu Peng still dare to seek revenge?

Everyone's impeachment is just a formality and is just for Emperor Jiajing to see, so why take it seriously?

What's more, even if you take it seriously, Kedao is an existence that jumps out of the three realms and is not in the five elements in the court. If the Ministry of Personnel really wants to retaliate and is not afraid of the joint impeachment of the entire Kedao, then it will be a situation that will never stop.

It is a duty for censors to impose others. If they are retaliated for being impeached, then no one will be in trouble in the future and they will do the job of offending others.

The folk saying "sweep the snow in front of the door and don't care about the frost on others" is not feasible, it's just a fool's statement.

It seems to be protecting itself, but I don’t know that it is because of this that I am exploiting and exploiting.

If you don’t care about other people’s affairs, why bother with your affairs? In the end, everyone is bullied by the powerful.

If a censor is retaliated today, then the people who have impeached him in the past will also retaliate, and all censors will probably be unlucky.

Everyone is a scholar and understands the truth, so they are more united on this issue.

As long as you give in one concession, there will be countless concessions next, until you have no choice.

Wei Guangde is also one of the censors, at least he was still before he was handed over to the position of censor of the Censorate.

However, now that he has taken the real difference in Prince Yu's mansion, he doesn't have to consider Emperor Jiajing's accusations against Ke Dao, but he has a deep understanding of his colleagues' feelings.

After about half an hour of touching, Yin Shidan finished his class, and King Yu was reluctant to be invited into the house by Wei Guangde, so he naturally discussed the matter.

At the beginning, King Yu didn't feel anything about impeaching Wu Peng. Now King Jing has left, and the pressure on him is not that strong.

However, Yin Shidan was very interested. After repeated calculations, he thought he could really give it a try, at least it would not hurt.

King Yu thought about his inner courtyard and sat listlessly for a while, saying, "Since it's okay, then go and do it. Shandai and Uncle Da went to Xu Ge Lao's mansion for a walk."
