Lu Guangzu was a Jinshi in the 26th year of Jiajing, the same year as Zhang Juzheng, and he looked very much like a figure from the previous era.
In terms of qualifications, he is one of the best, and he is qualified to be the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel. In the original history, he was indeed the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel.
However, Lu Shangshu has a very personal personality and has risen and fallen in the officialdom, so now he is just the Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment.
Wang Situ snorted coldly and made a calm judgment.
Bringing Cai Shiding's impeachment of Lin Tailai here is obviously aimed at himself, the Minister of Household Affairs, and he probably wants to use Lin Tailai to drag him into trouble?
There is nothing you can do about it, everything you do has a price. Since you have protected Lin Tailai from misbehaving in Yangzhou City, you have to bear the burden of others using Lin Tailai as an excuse to attack you.
The one who stepped on the horse was obviously Shen Shoufu who had failed, so why did others continue to treat him so badly?
Do you regard yourself as the weak periphery of Shen Party and clean it up first as a courtesy?
Then Wang Situ looked at Wang Yi'e, Minister of the Ministry of War, "What does Grand Sima say about the Suzhou Guards' garrison at Shuicicang in Yangzhou?"
Wang Yi'e was originally the governor of Jiliao. He had just entered the court and succeeded Zhang Jiayin as Minister of War. Hearing this, he said in embarrassment:
"If the chief military officer thinks that the Suzhou guards are doing illegal things to harm the Yangzhou area, they can consider moving them away."
Many years ago, when Lu Guangzu was working in the Ministry of Personnel, he helped Wang Yi'e discuss his faults, so Wang Yi'e had to return the favor.
In fact, most people are surprised that Lu Guangzu, the Minister of Punishment, actually helped the Qingliu forces?
You know, a few years ago Lu Shangshu was besieged by officials and had to be dismissed from office for a period of time.
Especially when Cai Shiding also impeached Lu Shangshu, now Lu Shangshu is speaking for Cai Shiding, which is really "magnanimous".
Today is indeed not in vain, this is a very important trend.
Being squeezed by two ministers at the same time, Wang Situ, who wanted to be tough even if he wanted to be tough, also frowned, thinking about the deeper issues and how to deal with them.
At this time, Qi Shichen jumped out of the official matter and said, "I have a question. The dispatch of censors such as Xunjianxunyan is really crucial. The general term is about one year to prevent the disadvantages of long-term appointment.
It seems that Cai Shiding, the salt patrol officer of Huaihe River and Huaihe River, has been in office for nearly two years, which violates the rules. Why is this?"
Wang Situ was stunned, a little flattered.
He really didn't expect that Shen Shoufu's "royal thug" would take the initiative to speak for him, allowing him to enjoy the treatment of the first assistant.
After reacting, Wang Situ said to Wu Shi, the censor of Zuodu: "The foreign censors are all sent by the Metropolitan Procuratorate. What explanation does the Metropolitan Procuratorate give regarding Cai Shiding's term of office?"
Wu Shilai did not hesitate to sell Shi Xing, the left deputy capital censor: "It was deputy Shi Xian who advocated for Cai Shiding to be postponed."
Shi Xing suddenly felt a pain in his balls. It was Wang Shizhen who wrote the letter, asking Cai Shiding to continue working.
As one of the "Five Continuing Sons" of the retro faction, he would certainly not go against the old alliance leader's proposal on such an inconsequential matter.
I didn't think it was a problem at the time, but I didn't expect that it would become a scapegoat.
Qi Shichen immediately said loudly: "Cai Shiding violated the rules and exceeded the deadline. His long term appointment will inevitably lead to emotional abuse. The court cannot accept his memorial!"
Another censor should be sent to Yangzhou immediately to replace Cai Shiding, and then the new censor of salt inspection should be sent to find out what Cai Shiding reported!"
Wang Situ nodded appreciatively. The chief assistant's "royal thug" was really useful, and he echoed: "Qi Shiyi is well-founded and well-founded!"
Chief Secretary Lu Guangzu shouted: "This is ridiculous! Is it because Cai Shiding broke the law by impeaching Lin Tailai that he should be removed from his position first and then investigated?
Then why not treat him equally and remove Lin Tailai at the same time?
Besides, it’s not just Cai Shiding’s family who is speaking out, there are also salt merchants who jointly submitted a letter to Mr. Xu Ge, accusing Lin Tailai of breaking the law, and Mr. Xu Ge has already forwarded the letter from the salt merchants to the Ministry of Punishment!”
Mr. Xu Ge was the second assistant to Xu Guo. He was a Huizhou merchant and was from the same hometown as many Yangzhou salt merchants.
Wang Situ also had a temper, and said angrily on the spot: "If a joint report by just a few people can be used as evidence, then why should the court officials do anything?"
Lu Guangzu replied: "Although the joint prosecution is suspected of disturbing the judiciary, it reflects public opinion."
Suddenly, an official from the General Administration Department came in, waved the chapter in his hand, and said: "A memorial has just arrived, sent from Yangzhou, and everyone should be aware of it.
Zhang Jiayin, the former Minister of War, Wang Shizhen, the right minister of the Nanjing Ministry of War, Wang Daokun, the former left minister of the Ministry of War, Wu Guolun, the former left political advisor of Henan, and more than ten people, jointly reported Cai Shiding, the salt censor of Huaihe and Huaihe Rivers, in Yangzhou City!"
When all the ministers heard this memorial, no matter what their position was, they were all confused at the moment. What the hell is going on?
How much fake wine did these semi-retired or retired literary figures drink, and why did they come together to report Cai Shiding?
Wang Situ, who was the first to come back to his senses, laughed a few times and said mockingly to Lu Guangzu:
"I dare to ask Da Sikou, who is the public opinion among a few salt merchants and a group of literary leaders?"
Chapter completed!
