Chapter 174 fire

Within nearly two months, Gao Gong started a war against Xu Jie using the excuse of Beijing Chase, and purged the Xu Jie party. He dismissed the twenty-three court officials on the grounds of weak talent and impetuousness, eleven of them were recognized as Xu Jie's disciples... However, these had nothing to do with Sui Yuan, at least for the time being.

On the contrary, when Xu Jie and Gao Gong beat him to death, the people in the court were unstable, the Suiyuan party frequently showed their faces, which made his colleagues envious.

Qian Yuan went south to suppress the army, making the war unable to come. He captured Zhang Lian alive, suppressed Wang Zhi, resumed trade, and delivered the tax and silver account books to Beijing that Fang Dun finally relieved his anger. The reorganized royal fleet satisfied Emperor Longqing.

The most important thing is that the various treasures sent to the Xiyuan from secret channels made Emperor Longqing smile... In the past six months, this guy has more harems, and there are six who have officially enthroned concubines alone.

After all, Qian Yuan was under thirty years old and was already the Minister of War, and he was also the left son of Zuo Chunfang, the Zhanshifu, so he really couldn't give him a favor... So many people in Suiyuan were summoned by Emperor Longqing and frequently gave him favors.

Zhu Dashou was originally an old minister of Qiandi, and Xu Wei was summoned by Emperor Longqing many times in the past few months. In addition to these two, Sun Yan, who was still in the Hanlin Academy, Zhan Shi, and Tao Dalin were promoted. Chen Younian, the doctor of the Ministry of Revenue, Wu Dui, the doctor of the Ministry of War, Zhou Shi, the head of the Ministry of Justice, and Lin Feng, the head of the Ministry of Justice, were all able to enter the Western Garden to meet. If it were not for the inspection of the capital, the latter two might have been upgraded to one level.

After Qian Yuan went south this time, Xu Wei often summoned everyone to drink in Suiyuan. Anyone who is interested can see that this was Xu Wei's deliberate behavior. Unlike other political groups, the cohesion of the Suiyuan party is not only dependent on regional, political demands, and interests, but it also requires long-term and regular exercise.

The last person who had not come to Suiyuan for a long time was Tao Dalin, who was focused on recording the "Yongle Encyclopedia", but was cheated into Zhao Prison. If Qian Yuan hadn't happened to return to Beijing, he wouldn't know what would happen.

In the past, Xu Wei would take turns to drink together, but today, except for Yang Quan, the doctor of the Ministry of Personnel who was not suitable for going out because of the Beijing Prefecture, and Huang Maoguan, Gao Yi, Pan Sheng and other senior officials of the older generation, the other Suiyuan party gathered together in Beijing.

In the yard outside, the younger generations such as Lin Feng, Xian Yuan, Lu Shude were ordering dishes... Although Qian Family Restaurant was right beside him, the exquisite dishes were not as good as the Suiyuan kitchen trained by Qian Yuan himself.

In the hall inside, Xu Wei and Zhu Dashou sat in the upper seat. These two were the oldest and had the highest reputation in Shaoxing. The rest sat at will regardless of their official rank.

"Gao Xinzheng's temper..." Xu Wei said with a smile: "It sounds a bit like Zhancai..."

"None of them are gentlemen!"

Tao Dalin looked at the serious Zhou Shi in surprise, "What does Jiaxu mean?"

"It's not too late for a gentleman to take revenge for three years. Both of them are too late from morning to night!" Xu Wei laughed and said, "Zhan Cai Zeng said that Jiaxu was joking with a cold face."

After everyone burst into laughter, Sun Jian shook his head slightly, "Outsiders all say that Zhan Cai will retaliate, but it is actually reasonable and not aggressive... But this time Gao Xinzheng is really..."

"He Gao Xinzheng is just like this!"

Many years ago, Qian Yuan talked to Sun Yan and Xu Wei about Gao Gong, who was tall and proud of his spirit and arrogant. Although he had skills, he was very hot... Especially for that mouth, he couldn't say that he had good eloquence, but he couldn't control this mouth at critical moments.

Since the list of Beijing inspections was circulated, a large number of censors wrote letters to impeach Yang Bo for injustice, engaging in corruption, protecting the countryside, and Shanxi people had no inferior assessments.

The most intense words were Zou Yinglong, the censor of the Censorate... This gentleman lost his great achievements in impeaching Yan Song in this life, but he was beaten by Qian Yuan at least three times by Sui Yuan... The name Zou Yinglong was not unknown.

In the memorial, Zou Yinglong accused Yang Boxing of following up and attacking others, but only the orders of others were followed... Obviously, he was pointing the finger directly at Gao Gong.

The other Kedao censors only impeached Yang Bo and did not directly attack Gao Gong. Zou Yinglong fired the first shot, and he was also the recognized Xu Jie's disciple and the confidant of Xu Jie's in Kedao censors.

So, today when I saw Zou Yinglong's memorial, Gao Gong was furious in the Xiyuan Zhilu, pointing to the mulberry tree and scolding Zou Yinglong.

This is just a small matter. Now Gao Gong is in power and is highly trusted by Emperor Longqing. After being impeached, he scolded him a few words. It is really a small matter.

But at dusk today, news came from Zhilu that Zou Yinglong made a false report and planned to denounce the people... Obviously, this was Gao Gong's revenge and suppression.

The news spread throughout the court in a short period of time. This time, not only was the censor of Kedao, but the court was in a turmoil... the censor was demoted, but also after being impeached and during the Beijing inspection. Gao Gong's operation, which had been so domineering that he was inclined to the point of being inclined to the point of view, broke the bottom line of countless officials.

It was this news that made the scholars of Suiyuan return to Suiyuan at the same time, but Xu Wei didn't care about this.

"No need to make a fuss about something small."

Sun Jian also agreed with Xu Wei's view, "Although Gao Xinzheng was angry with the public, Zou Yinglong could not make any big waves."

It cannot be said that Xu Wei and Sun Yan’s views are wrong, because Zou Yinglong’s impeachment pointed directly at Gao Gong, which is a bit unreasonable. At least Jingcha has nothing to do with Gao Gong on the surface.

In addition, Zou Yinglong is a member of Xu Jie's sect, although Gao Gong's attack on suppression was a bit arrogant, it was not without reason.

Not to mention, there was news from the cabinet that it was difficult to dismiss Zou Yinglong from office to serve as a civilian. It was difficult to say whether the news was true or false, and it was even hard to say who released the news.

If Qian Yuan was in Beijing, he would definitely not think so... It's not that he is more intelligent than Xu Wei and Sun Yan, but his identity as a time traveler. Xu Jie in the original time and space was in the Beijing inspection and drove the censor Kedao to defeat Gao Gong.

The same was true in this life. The next day, public opinion in the court became increasingly inclined towards Zou Yinglong's side, especially the censor of Kedao. Everyone was angry. A large number of impeachment memorials were sent to the Tongzhengsi and spread throughout the court in a short period of time.

Obviously, Xu Jie had already had a comprehensive plan and successfully put Gao Gong in trouble.

Those impeachment memorials made Gao Gong, who was trustworthy and domineering in his old age, fall into trouble?

The answer is possible.

In any case, Gao Gong, Yan Song, Qian Yuan, and Li Chunfang are different. Although he entered the cabinet for Emperor Longqing to take power, he was always the most orthodox civil servant, and the influence of public opinion on him always exists.

After all, the cabinet is an organization that takes charge of the world and balances the imperial power and the imperial power. Without the support of the civil service group, the cabinet can only become a toy of imperial power.

If Gao Gong is criticized too much and too severely and loses the support of the civil service system, even if he takes charge of the cabinet and holds great power... it will be difficult for him to fully exercise his power next.
