145 Those who do not impeach are cronies
Seeing that Duke Xingguo didn't even get off his horse, he went straight into the Forbidden City. The palace gate guards did not stop him, but instead gave him a respectful and respectful salute.
Seeing this scene, Zuo Maodi and the other three couldn't help but look at each other.
Although they had imagined as much power as possible in Duke Xingguo, they did not expect that Duke Xingguo's power was beyond their expectations.
Now, Duke Xingguo has become their benefactor again, that is, they will tie him to the same boat and advance and retreat together.
If there were any concerns before, I had heard Duke Xingguo say that the case of Jiulian Bodhisattva has been solved, which means that the greatest threat to Duke Xingguo is gone. In this way, wouldn’t there be an opportunity to show off your strength and put your ambitions into your heart?
Whether it is for Zuo Maodi, Du Yinxi, or Yan Yingyuan, God suddenly gave them such a chance, as long as they had some ideas, how could they let it go!
At this moment, the three of them looked at each other, but for some reason, they felt that they liked each other more!
Zuo Maodi nodded to the other two: "Try hard!"
"Try hard!" Du Yinxi also responded seriously.
Yan Yingyuan hesitated for a moment based on his humble identity, but when he saw the other two looking at him, he stopped hesitating and nodded vigorously, "Try hard!"
……………………
There are so many people in Wenhua Hall, and those with lower positions are almost out of the hall.
And inspiring voices came from time to time in the hall. A fierce dynasty meeting like today is definitely rare in the Chongzhen Dynasty. Therefore, almost everyone was attracted by the movements in the hall.
When Zhang Mingwei arrived outside the hall, he also heard the intense and passionate voices inside the hall. He couldn't help but sneer in his mouth and sneered in his heart: It was so happy to dance!
Even if the guards and eunuchs at the door were concerned about the movements, they were still alarmed.
The leading eunuch turned around and found that it was Duke Xingguo who was here.
He is from Wang Chengen's family and belongs to the level of a grandson. Those who are godson are almost all eunuchs who are bridal and are now discussing affairs in the hall.
Hearing that the palace was so intense, if Duke Xingguo was brought down, their ancestors would definitely be implicated, which means that their interests would be damaged.
Therefore, when Duke Xingguo came back, he was very happy and quickly wanted to go into the palace to report.
However, when Zhang Mingwei saw it, he waved his hand at him and said, "No need to let all those people jump out, I'll listen first!"
When the eunuch heard this, he dared not disobey. Seeing the rejuvenation of Xingguo, he felt at ease and knew that there would be no problem!
In the hall, Emperor Chongzhen sat high on the imperial throne, watching the ministers below coldly roaring with "righteous indignation" and "righteous words"! There was no longer the impulse of being angry and even furious when he heard these words before.
Because Zhu Mai had already entered the palace before dawn and reported everything he saw and heard. At the request of his husband, he sent the Yongwei Camp to take over the Beijing Camp.
Unexpectedly, the truth of the case of Jiulian Bodhisattva was revealed so soon!
Emperor Chongzhen thought about this and didn't know how relaxed he was! This was the case. When these ministers impeached the gentleman more violently, he would be less furious.
Because he knew that these were all jumping clowns, as long as the husband returned from Yuan Chenggong's mansion, these clowns would know that they were very wrong.
I saw that the Minister of Personnel Li Rixuan was "proclaiming generously" now. He was excited and murmured: "... The nature of Duke Xingguo is that not only has an oracle of Jiulian Bodhisattva, but also his colleagues have already explained it very clearly just now. I think that the chief minister had already seen through it when he was hypocritical and sought fame. Therefore, I beg to release the chief minister from the imperial prison to give him justice."
When Wu Changshi, the doctor of the Ministry of Personnel's Selection, heard this, he immediately coughed and then went out and said loudly: "I am here to discuss that the chief assistant is famous all over the world and has high reputation. The scholars look up to him. Your Majesty is wise and he should be a fair assistant. Your Majesty, the Ming Dynasty must not be without the chief assistant!"
Emperor Chongzhen looked at them coldly, but still had no expression.
He had already seen that with the help of this huge impeachment of Mr. Zhou Yanru's accomplices jumped out one after another, trying to restore Zhou Yanru's identity as chief minister.
Emperor Chongzhen remembered that Mr. Zhou Yanru's rise to power was the result of the resumption of the society. In return, Zhou Yanru had to obey Zhang Pu's remote control, promote and remove officials, all based on the list given by Zhang Pu!
Wu Changshi was jealous of this power and fought for power with Zhang Pu, assassinating Zhang Pu, trying to grab this power.
No matter what, they definitely hope that Zhou Yanru can restore his post.
Thinking of this, Emperor Chongzhen sneered in his heart: Since the sir has told me, even if you say it is a big fantasy, it is a delusion!
He was thinking about it. Seeing that Emperor Chongzhen still did not respond, Li Rixuan frowned and turned to look at some people. After seeing his eyes, he turned around and looked at Emperor Chongzhen and said loudly: "The saint said that there must be monsters in the world. As for the chaos in today and the suffering of the people, I have never experienced since the founding of the Ming Dynasty. Jiulian Bodhisattva was originally my Empress Dowager of the Ming Dynasty. Naturally, I was concerned about my ancestors' country and the country, and I gave the imperial edict. It has been effective. If Your Majesty ignores this time, it will definitely make Jiulian Bodhisattva angry!"
Speaking of this, his voice was even higher. Judging from his appearance, he seemed even more excited and generous: "Although I know that Your Majesty does not like what I say, I can do the Ming Dynasty and the people of the world, and I cannot ignore it. Seeing that Your Majesty was bewitched by a traitor, it will harm the royal family, the people of the world, and the country of the Ming Dynasty. Even if Your Majesty is furious and loses his post, he will have to give advice."
"Your Majesty, you can no longer allow evil people to harm the country and the people!" Li Rixuan said excitedly, even burst into tears. If anyone who didn't know saw it, he would be moved by his loyalty and courage and iron-mindedness. He would almost call out Wei Zheng's rebirth!
"Your Majesty, even Duke Cheng, who has made great contributions to the Ming Dynasty, is not taken seriously by him. He is shouting and beating and killing. In the future, maybe even Your Majesty will not take it seriously." Wu Changshi said the sadness and burst into tears. "Even if I lose my official position, I will never look at him and bewitch Your Majesty. Please make a decision!"
Chen Xinjia, who had already made a "graceful statement" before, did not hide after seeing this scene, but stood up as agreed in advance, not afraid of Emperor Chongzhen's previous statement that anyone who wanted to impeach Duke Xingguo would be left, and he loudly agreed.
"Your Majesty, I'm going to discuss it!"
“…”
For a moment, most of the civil servants and generals in the hall stood up and agreed with "righteous indignation".
They didn't believe it anymore. So many people stood up and were not afraid of losing their posts and impeaching the arrogant commander of the Jinyiwei together. Could it be that the emperor would have to cover up again?
If so many people were appointed as officials at the same time, how big would it be? Can your emperor withstand this pressure? Is an emperor without a minister or an emperor?
Before, they were actually worried that they would be dismissed from office by the emperor, so that others would make up for it immediately, and they would suffer a lot.
However, this time, even Duke Cheng was attacked by the commander of the Jinyiwei. If he let him go, no one would ask for anything and be caught by that person, he would be unlucky.
Therefore, when everyone united, I don’t believe it. Can your emperor dismiss all the officials of so many people?
For a moment, only a few people in the entire Wenhua Hall did not agree and stood still.
Among them, the most conspicuous one is of course Liu Zongzhou, the censor of the Zuodu.
Seeing this, Li Rixuan, who usually had a good relationship with Liu Zongzhou, asked him: "The Censorate supervised the world, but such a monster occurred in the court. I wonder if the Censor Zuodu fulfilled his duties?"
"The Heavenly Official said it well!" Wu Changshi immediately followed and shouted to Liu Zongzhou, "Even the Nine-Lotus Bodhisattva can't see it in heaven, but you, the Zuodu Censor, is indifferent?"
"Will the Zuodu Censor often talk big and proclaim himself the leader of the Qingliu? But when things come to an end, he will risk the possibility of losing his post and resigning, and he will be reluctant to leave again?" Chen Xinjia also sneered and sarcastically.
When Liu Zongzhou heard this, he was furious and immediately replied: "I, Liu Zongzhou, are you greedy for power? In front of His Majesty, you always say that Duke Xingguo is a treacherous minister who is a traitor. So, how did he mislead the country's laws? Did he accept bribes, be corrupt, abuse the law, or treat the people as nothing?"
After he said this, the civil and military officials in the palace were as if they were stepped on a cat's tail, and most of them immediately fired at him.
For a moment, Liu Zongzhou just said one thing in the Wenhua Palace, and a large number of people immediately scolded him, and no longer gave him a chance to speak.
Among the troubles, there is probably one thing that means: Liu Zongzhou defected to Duke Xingguo and formed a clique for personal gain. It was for the sake of cliques! Even the Jiulian Bodhisattva of Duke Xingguo's crimes have appeared. What else do you have to say? Do you want to make the emperor die and your concubine be happy?
In short, it was like they even had their official positions in the hall, and they had to fight with the traitors to the end. They were either people who did this or the traitors’ cliques! They were people who wanted to kill the emperor’s concubine!
Liu Zongzhou wanted to say it out loud, but his voice was covered in saliva at all. Even the censor who supervised the etiquette in front of the imperial court could not stop the storm of this group of emotions.
However, at this moment, an eunuch outside the hall shouted loudly: "The refugee resettlement envoy in the capital, and the commander of the Jinyiwei, Duke Xingguo, met with him!"
As soon as the sound sounded, the noise in Wenhua Hall suddenly became silent as if someone had stuck his throat. Almost at the same time, everyone turned to look in the direction of the hall when they heard the sound.
