Chapter 156 The sky has changed

Things took a turn for the worse, which no one expected.

When the news first broke, many people thought that the matter would not develop to this extent. But in just a few days, the matter has already developed to this extent.

As Zhu Youxiao issued an order to comfort Liu, everyone knew that there was no possibility of things changing this time.

The few cabinet bachelors who had been comforted by the emperor immediately wrote their greetings and titles again, and Zhu Youxiao still issued an order to comfort them.

Only after three times, on the fourth time, Zhu Youxiao issued an imperial edict allowing them to pay their respects, and the three cabinet bachelors went home directly.

Although Zhu Youxiao also gave the three cabinet bachelors the treatment they deserve, the fact is that they left.

This incident had a huge impact on both the government and the public. Three bachelors were suddenly removed from the cabinet. Everyone in the court knew that things were about to change.

Except for the three cabinet bachelors, the others also started to write the question papers, and the results were the same. After three times, Zhu Youxiao passed them all.

The cabinet was suddenly emptied out, leaving only Liu Yijing and Han Xu.

Things have reached an irreversible point.

As the wind changed, the impeachers also targeted Liu Yijing and Han Xu.

So Liu Yijing and Han Xu also entered the address book, and the matter officially reached its peak.

At the same time, in the East Factory, the trial speed of the case was very fast.

Wei Zhongxian looked at the confession in his hand, his face showing joy.

Different from before, this time Wei Zhongxian did not sit down, but just stood there and watched. It was not that Wei Zhongxian did not want to sit, but that he was still injured and could not sit.

"Very good, you go ahead. Let's go to the palace." After saying this, Wei Zhongxian left. He walked slowly, wishing he could just put on his wings and fly to the palace.

Sun Yunhe stood there, his face full of joy. Although his eyes were a little red, which proved that trying the case was indeed tiring, his whole person was excited.

Because this incident completely announced the rise of Dongchang.

Qianqing Palace.

Zhu Youxiao looked at Wei Zhongxian, fiddling with the confession in his hand, with no expression on his face.

In fact, Zhu Youxiao had expected this a long time ago. He had already anticipated this step from the very beginning of his layout. Even the departure of the cabinet bachelor was within his expectation. This was true throughout the imperial court.

This great purge implicated many people.

Starting from the Six Ministries, the Ministry of Industry, the Ministry of War, and the Ministry of Household Affairs are all involved. The only ones left are the Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of Punishment, and the Ministry of Personnel. However, they are only temporarily staying out of the matter, and they will still be involved later.

In addition, the Metropolitan Procuratorate has almost been cleaned up.

At this point, the network can basically be closed, and the candidates you have arranged can also come in.

The remaining people selected can be used temporarily. Whether these people will be used in the future depends on their future performance.

Putting down the confession in his hand, Zhu Youxiao said: "Cui Jingrong, the Minister of the Ministry of War, is in prison, and Wang Ji, the Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs, is in prison together. Dongchang will investigate the case as soon as possible and give an explanation to the people of the world."

After hearing this, Wei Zhongxian suddenly became excited and quickly knelt on the ground and said, "I'll do it right now, slave."

This is the first time Wei Zhongxian has overthrown six ministers, and two at a time.

This is a great progress for Wei Zhongxian and the establishment of his authority. For Wei Zhongxian, this is the starting point of his career and at the same time his revenge. It is impossible for him not to be excited.

Zhu Youxiao waved his hand and said, "Go and do it."

Wei Zhongxian turned around and left.

Zhu Youxiao turned to look at Chen Hong, "Has the date of my wedding been decided? Is it a good time for Qin Tianjian?"

For Zhu Youxiao, when he was in such a good mood, it was natural to say something happy.

Chen Hong said quickly: "Go back to your Majesty, the question book has been handed over, and it's right here."

After saying that, Chen Hong handed over the question book and stood aside respectfully.

Opening the question book, Zhu Youxiao nodded with satisfaction and set the date on April 17th.

As for whether it was a good day or not, Zhu Youxiao didn't know. But that was not important. What was important was that he could finally get married again. It was the second time for two people to get married. Thinking of this, Zhu Youxiao laughed at himself.

Putting down the question book, Zhu Youxiao said: "Since we have chosen a good day, let's prepare as soon as possible."

The emperor's wedding will naturally not be too simple, but the current situation does not allow it to be too complicated. After all, Zhu Youxiao has just ascended the throne. This is an important matter and needs to be done and implemented as soon as possible.

Chen Hong looked happy and said excitedly: "Yes, Your Majesty."

Cabinet duty room.

The cabinet duty room, which was originally bustling with people, seemed a little deserted at this moment. Many tables had been vacated, leaving only Liu Yijing and Han Xu.

At this time someone came in from outside.

"Mr. Ge, His Majesty just issued an order for Dongchang to take Cui Jingrong, the Minister of the Ministry of War, and Wang Ji, the Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs."

After hearing this, Han Xu and Liu Yijing nodded at the same time, indicating that they understood.

They glanced at each other, but neither of them expressed an opinion. There was nothing they could say about this matter, and there was nothing they could do to stop it.

Of the 1 million taels of military pay, there were only 700,000 taels left after leaving the capital. There was no way to clean up this matter.

Now that the matter has been clarified, Cui Jingrong, the Minister of the Ministry of War, and Wang Ji, the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, will inevitably have to deal with it, but how to deal with it is a question.

But now Han Xu and Liu Yijing have nothing to do with it, because they are already like mud bodhisattvas crossing the river and cannot save themselves.

"Is it finished?" Liu Yijing looked at Han Xu and asked with a smile.

What Liu Yijing is talking about is, of course, the title book.

At this time, the two of them also had to write.

In Liu Yijing's opinion, both of them are doomed this time. His Majesty is not satisfied with everyone, so he wants to replace them all.

Han Xu nodded, in fact he thought so too.

After the Donglin Party case came out, His Majesty was dissatisfied with the courtiers. When he tried the case himself, His Majesty was also dissatisfied with himself, especially after he saved Yuan Yingtai and Wang Huazhen.

From the beginning, His Majesty wanted to deal with everyone. As a result, he stopped His Majesty, and there was bound to be a backlash.

From the beginning of the incident, His Majesty was actually forcing people like himself to move forward. Fang Congzhe's case was uncovered, in fact, because of this. If he had succumbed, perhaps what happened today would not have happened.

"Do you regret it?" Liu Yijing looked at Han Xu with a smile and asked these three words.

Han Xu shook his head with a smile, and said with some calmness in his tone: "It's useless to talk about this at this time, let alone what regrets there are? It's just that you did what you should do. But you, Mr. Ge,

I was implicated from the beginning to the end.”

This sentence is not a lie. In fact, from the very beginning, this matter had nothing to do with Liu Yijing.

It's just that Liu Yijing sits in the position of the first assistant bachelor of the cabinet, and there are some things that he can't avoid.

Liu Yijing also smiled and shook his head and said: "In his position, he seeks his own politics. Besides, I am not willing to do it. If I were willing, I should have left long ago. In the final analysis, it is still selfish."

"But I also admit that even if I have selfish motives, I am not doing it for myself. I am not afraid to tell you now. In fact, I have always looked down on some people. I absolutely cannot leave these things to them. They

It will make this Ming Dynasty very bad."

"In fact, I am relieved now. Although I am gone, they are also gone."

Of course Han Xu knew who Liu Yijing was talking about. In fact, he was talking about those people from the Donglin Party.

Shaking his head with a wry smile, Han Xu said expressionlessly: "Does Mr. Ge also think the same about me?"

"You, Han Yuchen, are not included in this list, otherwise I would not work with you." Liu Yijing said with a smile.

"Before leaving the capital, let's find a place to have a drink. Speaking of which, we haven't really had a good drink together in so many years. Now that we have taken off our errands, we can have a drink together and talk about knowledge. I am very grateful to you.

Talent and learning have always been admired."

Han Xu also smiled and said: "Of course it is better to obey orders than to be respectful."

The question books of Liu Yijing and Han Xu were handed over directly, very quickly.

So the news spread, and the two remaining assistant ministers in the cabinet were all included in the greeting books. If His Majesty approved these two title books, it means that there is no one left in the cabinet.

So for a while, some people began to write papers to object, and began to protect Liu Yijing and Han Xu.

It's not that Cui Chengxiu and the others were the ones who wrote the title. They wished there were no people in the cabinet so that their own people could come up.

But some people couldn't stand it anymore. How could there be no people in the cabinet? What's more, in their opinion, Liu Yijing and Han Xu did a pretty good job this time.

Especially Han Xu, although he lost the support of the Donglin Party, he won the support of a group of people without party affiliation.

Qianqing Palace.

Zhu Youxiao looked at the question book in his hand expressionlessly.

Zhu Youxiao was not surprised at all that someone protected Liu Yijing and Han Xu. If no one took action, it would be a strange thing, but it would not be a big deal in the first place.

Putting down the question book, Zhu Youxiao said: "I have issued an order to comfort Liu. After a few times, Liu Yijing's job will be confirmed."

It is impossible for Zhu Youxiao to really empty out the cabinet. He must leave one person behind, and he can only choose Han Xu.

Compared with Liu Yijing, Han Xu is much more capable and calculating, and he is also a person who can handle a bowl of water equally. It is also beneficial for such a person to stay, at least he can do something for himself.

The two cabinet bachelors all went home and were waiting, so Zhu Youxiao could issue an imperial edict, so he said: "Promote Xu Guangqi to the position of Shangshu of the Ministry of Hubu, and enter the Jinshen Palace, and Sun Chengzong to be the Shangshu of the Ministry of War, and enter Wenhua.

The Ministry of Punishments submitted a letter to Huang Kezuan to be admitted to the Wuying Palace as a bachelor."

"Commissioner of Ceremonies, please prepare the edict." After Zhu Youxiao said this, he continued to lean on the couch, his face still expressionless.

After this imperial edict is passed, it means that the super long pattern will change again.

Han Xu represents one side of the force, as does Sun Chengzong; as for Xu Guangqi, it's time for his side to make efforts; Huang Kezuan looks like a soy sauce, but he is a representative of the neutral faction.
