Chapter 460 The Capital Gathers to Fight (10,000 Days)
Looking at Cui Yingyuan in front of him, Wang Dengku's face became very ugly. He stood up and said, "Are you not afraid of the king's law when you act so rebelliously? The treacherous ministers and sons will be retribution sooner or later!"
After hearing this, Cui Yingyuan immediately smiled and said, "As someone like you, do you have the nerve to talk to me? I am a loyal minister of the Ming Dynasty, unlike you who sell the country and seek honor. You deserve to die in a crime!"
After saying this, Cui Yingyuan seemed to feel a little excited and waved his hand directly.
Looking at Wang Dengku, Cui Yingyuan said impatiently: "Forget it, let's not say it anymore, it's useless to say it. Can you still convince you by your mouth? That's all the people in this world, and you can never wake up a person who pretends to be asleep."
After hearing this, Wang Dengku was stunned and then asked in a deep voice: "What are you going to do?"
"You don't have to worry about this, come with me." Cui Yingyuan said with a smile: "You will know when you get to the place."
The arrest of Wang Dengku means that the anti-corruption campaign around Zhangjiakou has officially begun.
Teams of people began to officially surface. Not only were the merchants who sold their country and sought honors arrested, but all the stable officials and military generals in Zhangjiakou were arrested.
This time the action was very fast and the results were very good. After all, the arrangements were started about half a year ago, and the personnel arrangements had already been in place. This time the action basically did not have much twists and turns.
Even if someone in the army is not convinced, it is useless. After all, the Ming Dynasty is getting stronger and stronger now, and the imperial army is getting stronger. Many generals on the frontier also know that although the situation in the imperial court is not very good, it is much stronger than before.
After all, although the two dollars Sun Chengzong requested to allocate were not fully in place, part of the money had already come. Life on the border was much better, and the court gave a lot of food, so the morale of the army was still stable.
In addition, the border here is quite peaceful, so life is easier. If the officers do not cause trouble, the military households below will not cause trouble, so there will be no big setbacks.
Before the world was in chaos, no one dared to rebel blatantly, that was seeking death. Moreover, there were still people in the army who were upright, and these people could also ensure the effective operation of the army.
For a moment, people were arrested everywhere in the northern part of the world. The Jinyiwei went out everywhere, and it could be said that he had gained fame in an instant.
But at this time, the situation was not very good in the capital.
Public opinion has fermented very hard, and many people have begun to criticize the Jinyiwei.
On the one hand, these people are involved in business in the north, and on the other hand, they are full of lips and teeth. After all, the business they do is not very glorious, and if they are really pursued, it will be very troublesome.
Although I don’t want to save those people from the north, I also have to stop the court from doing such things again.
For a moment, public opinion was in full swing, and officials from all over the court were also very imposing. However, everyone at the top knew that this was what His Majesty did, and they had no good idea.
In the cabinet.
Three Cabinet Grand Secretarys were holding a meeting again.
Since Sun Chengzong went to the Staff Office, only three cabinet ministers were left in the cabinet. Although there was news that "you can enter the cabinet even if you are not a Hanlin", His Majesty seemed to have no intention of supplementing it, which made people confused.
However, Xu Guangqi is not independent and difficult to support himself, after all, he has the support of His Majesty.
This time the three of them gathered together, so naturally they discussed the matters in the north. The situation in the court is very complicated now, and some things need to be done by the three of them.
His Majesty was not in the capital, and their power had increased a lot. But no one dared to do anything randomly. No one knew what His Majesty had told him before he left.
After all, in addition to them, there is also a staff officer.
Among the ministers in the Staff Office, there are ruthless people like Sun Chengzong and Yuan Keli, which cannot be underestimated at all.
"What's the situation outside?" Han Dong looked at Xu Guangqi and asked directly.
Han Yu is actually a bit overwhelming now. His Majesty made such a big deal when he came to the north. Now the capital is making such a big deal. Without His Majesty in charge, Han Yu felt a little embarrassed.
Xu Guangqi glanced at Han Du. Xu Guangqi looked down on this ungrateful chief minister of the cabinet, and he didn't know why His Majesty still wanted to use him.
However, Xu Guangqi also knew that he could not argue with Han Yu at this time. After pondering for a moment, Xu Guangqi said, "Just just now, the people from Shuntian Mansion came to report, and the fight started in the city."
After hearing this, Han Yu's face became a little ugly and he asked, "How did Chen Qiyu do things?"
This Chen Qiyu can be said to be His Majesty's confidant. He suddenly emerged during the affairs of King Fu of Henan. He then received his majesty's heavy use and sat directly at the position of the prefect of Shuntian.
Originally, everyone was thinking about watching the fun. After all, what achievements could such a young man have achieved when he was so young?
Besides, if you suddenly get this high position, this person will definitely float up and will slap His Majesty in the face.
But the facts never expected that Chen Qiyu, after sitting in the position of Shuntian Prefecture, could be said to have managed Shuntian Prefecture in an orderly manner, and was not arrogant or impatient, and was a balanced person. He was simply a very suitable official candidate.
Under such circumstances, it is impossible to deal with him. However, many people also realized that Chen Qiyu is a capable person.
On weekdays, Han Yu also knew that Chen Qiyu was always very sure about the governance of Shuntian Prefecture. It is precisely because of this that Han Yu said such things.
After all, a person who has always been very confident cannot suddenly come up with something unsure unless the person is demented.
But Chen Qiyu is not such a person at all, so there is probably something Han Yu doesn't know about here, and Han Yu said that.
Han wanted to know what was going on here.
Xu Guangqi glanced at Han Du, and the old god said, "It was the scholar who fought with the scholar."
After hearing this, Han was stunned at first, then sat down thoughtfully.
He looked up at Xu Guangqi and asked, "What the hell is going on?"
"Some people are talking about the matter in the North, but some people oppose it. These people think that the North is a traitor, and not severely punishing is not enough to calm the public's anger, and not severely punishing is not enough to correct people's hearts; those who run around and call for the people in the North simply have no conscience of scholars."
"The two sides started fighting after a disagreement. Now the person has been arrested in Shuntian Mansion. The people from Shuntian Mansion asked what to do?"
When Xu Guangqi said this, the old god was still there, and he took out a stack of questions and looked at Han Du and said, "This is what the cabinet just received, and they are all questions submitted by officials at all levels. They are all saying that things in the North should be severely punished, not only severely punished, but also punished as soon as possible, and declared the edict to the world so that everyone knows that there is no good end to selling the country and seeking honor!"
This surprised Han Dong.
Is this situation reversing too quickly? I Love Chinese
This happened just now when the trouble broke out. Is this the arrangement of this?
Or is this your Majesty’s arrangement?
Han Yu couldn't help looking at Xu Guangqi.
"Don't hide it anymore at this time." Han Du said with a wry smile: "Just say anything just."
"This time Your Majesty is going to the Northland, I believe you know what to do." Xu Guangqi glanced at Han Yu and Huang Kezhang and said, "I won't say much about this, and I will naturally understand everything I should understand."
Han Du and Huang Kezhang looked at each other, and no one said anything about this matter.
Of course, everything you should understand. Your Majesty went to the north. Rather than patrol, he actually went to get money. Han and the others knew this very well.
Although there is no need for His Majesty to go there in person, His Majesty went there in person, so why did Han and the others know about it?
First, it is to increase confidence, and second, it is to prevent corruption from being investigated by those who investigate corruption.
The Ming Dynasty officialdom has gone too much, and Your Majesty is really worried. The money in the north is needed by the imperial court. Not only does His Majesty’s inner treasury have no money, but the treasury of the Ministry of Revenue is almost gone. The imperial court has a lot of expenses, and His Majesty has done a lot of things, so this money is absolutely indispensable.
These people in the north happened to give His Majesty an excuse. Once the court wants to fight or something happens, it is not too strange to get some people and get some money.
These big men in the court knew it well, and they didn’t do it like this. This is how they have been through these years.
Why do those people in Jiangnan feel very insecure?
Why do wealthy businessmen everywhere have to train their own officials?
To put it bluntly, I want a right to speak and will not become the lamb to be slaughtered by the court.
Otherwise, the richer you are, the more dangerous you are. Once the court has something to do, you are the money jar of the court. Only people with backgrounds can protect them, so they collude with each other and collude with officials.
The reason why Your Majesty went to the North personally was to cut the mess with a quick knife. No matter who was behind him, he would not dare to stand up. Even Your Majesty could follow the clues and involve them all.
This kind of thing is to understand each other, but it cannot be said.
Xu Guangqi looked at both of them and knew that they understood what they meant, so he said, "Although many merchants in the north are smuggling, serious transactions are also very profitable. After the merchants in the north are arrested this time, the business in the north still needs to be done."
"The Ministry of Internal Affairs has joined forces with many merchants. It is said that a lot of goods have been stored, and now they are starting to ship. These people are preparing to go to the north to make a big deal."
The meaning of this sentence is very obvious. Those who have had this accident are all related to interests.
If the commercial interests in the north are empty, it is a huge business gap. You can definitely make a lot of money in that position. After all, the geographical location and current situation determine this, and there is no way to change it.
Just transport the things over and sell them to make money.
I didn’t want to do it before, but it was controlled by people from the north and officials suppressed it. If you send things over, you may be robbed halfway through it. At that time, you will lose all your money and money, and it will be said whether your life can be preserved.
But now it’s different. The officialdom in the north is being cleaned up, and a large number of merchants in the north have been killed, all of them are big shots.
This time the business is led by the Ministry of Internal Affairs. What kind of yamen is that?
That is the royal yamen. To put it bluntly, people just do business for the royal family, and they all belong to the emperor if they lose money. Who dares to wear small shoes in such a business?
If they don’t use their power to suppress others, they are already following the rules, and they dare to use methods for them?
With the leadership of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, these merchants naturally flocked to them. Judging from the current situation in the Ming Dynasty, there was a group of people standing behind each chamber of commerce, most of which were village party members formed of regions. The strength of these people should not be underestimated.
Now that some people want to speak for the people in the north, these villagers naturally have to stand up because they will go to do business next, and the Ministry of Internal Affairs takes the lead and the royal security.
In such a situation, these villagers naturally have to show their loyalty. In order to make things bigger and let the superiors see their own things, what is the fight?
This is where we are today.
Xu Guangqi's words were just a matter of stopping. After talking about the affairs of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, he stopped talking.
However, Han Dong and Huang Kezhang are both smart people and are big bosses in the court, so they naturally understand what's going on.
The two of them knew after a moment of thinking, and they were all helpless.
I'm afraid this is also under His Majesty's plan?
Seeing the two of them suddenly appear, Xu Guangqi said directly: "What do you say in Shuntian Mansion? Chen Qiyu is still waiting for our reply."
After hearing this, Han Du frowned and said in a disdainful tone: "Is Chen Qiyu the Prime Minister of Shuntian or I the Prime Minister of Shuntian? Do you have to take such a small matter to the cabinet? Let him think of a way by himself and not talk about everything to the cabinet."
Although these words seemed like a scolding, they were actually showing their attitude. Han Dong was telling Xu Guangqi not to let Chen Qiyu jump up and down.
Things have basically been solved at this point, and it is best to pass through peacefully. Don’t make any messy things.
The fight in Shuntian Mansion is a trivial matter, and it can be handled as much as it should be done. Is it necessary to make a fuss when fighting?
Xu Guangqi also understood that this was a consensus among several people.
This matter is just like this. Big things are turned into small things and small things are turned into small things. This matter is directly suppressed. The cabinet will not worry about the fermentation of public opinion.
However, Xu Guangqi understood even more that Chen Qiyu would definitely not give up.
Those who support northern merchants are probably going to be beaten up this time. As for how to favor, this kind of thing is not taught.
Whoever comes forward first and whoever is provoking trouble, then deal with him first; if another group of people passively fight back, then he will be lighter.
Whoever is provoking trouble is in the Shuntian Prefecture Office, you can understand it by just a little investigation.
If Chen Qiyu can't handle this, then he is not Chen Qiyu. The reason why he reported it was the attitude of the cabinet.
