In the Yangxin Hall, sandalwood is lingering, and the aroma is refreshing, elegant and pleasant.
The emperor squinted his eyes, flattened the corners of his mouth, and sat lazily on the dragon chair. There was a hint of melancholy between his brows, as if he was savoring his sorrow.
And in the seat on one side, the right-hand censor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, Master Yin Junyin, was sitting upright with a solemn look on his face.
There is a reason why the monarch and his ministers are gathered here.
What's going on?
Speaking of today's morning court, the emperor suddenly threw out the lie to the governor of Guangdong, Lu Boxuan, in front of everyone.
Drink! This is like a grenade with a huge yield. With a bang, it blew up the civil servants.
What? Fake Japanese pirates are rampant?
What nonsense!
How could the officials of our dynasty be so incompetent and engage in such rip-offs?
Governor Lu has no evidence and is a slanderer!
The bureaucrats, headed by the Minister of Civil Affairs, directly responded violently to this matter.
There is no storm without fire! I believe what Lu Boxuan said!
When the emperor saw that the civil servant group suddenly formed a group, he became angry and started to fight directly.
Next, the monarch and his ministers started a fierce argument.
A scene from the past reappeared. The emperor faced off against many, and he was still domineering and showed no intention of giving in.
Just when the fight was getting heated, Yin Jun, who had been waiting and watching, suddenly came out with a wat. He made a blockbuster move without making a sound, and directly threw the "King Bomb" in the impeachment level!
Then, what kind of explosion method is it?
He made it clear that anyone who stood up and spoke for the local officials had received the benefit of being honored by the local officials.
There is a saying: Take people's money to eliminate disasters for others. Since you have embezzled money, you must take actions to preserve the public security and political performance of local officials. To put it bluntly, officials protect each other.
He wants to impeach all officials who speak for local magistrates!
It’s an absolute hit!
Mr. Zhong, the chief minister who was watching quietly, was also deeply shocked by this. What happened to his son-in-law today? How could he directly bombard many officials in the court regardless of the consequences?
If you just want to help the emperor express his position, you can use a relatively tactful method, there is no need to show off your face!
What he is impeaching is corruption. Before he has any evidence, he will offend people by saying this.
To everyone's surprise, the emperor actually supported this view.
In this way, this majestic palace instantly became a famous dish.
What?
Buddha jumped over the wall - stewed!
It's even better than Zhou's boiled pork head.
From the time the morning sun fell to the third day of the sun, there was a whole morning of verbal quarrels in the court. Both sides insisted on their own words and refused to give in to the other, just like shrews scolding the street for hope.
The final result was still fruitless, and today's morning ended unhappy.
After the dispersion of the dynasty, Yin Jun was still angry, so he followed the emperor's footsteps to the Yangxin Hall, preparing to remonstrate again.
He was indeed abnormal today. Even Zhong Shoufu, who thought he understood him, couldn't help but feel confused.
Did Yin Jun take the chicken blood and turn it into urine?
No, no.
You know, Mr. Yin is a handsome and handsome man, how can he not care about his reserved image?
In fact, the answer is very simple. It is because he hates the Japanese pirates so much that he adopts this tough posture of holding a knife to his neck and refusing to give in.
This hatred has always been buried deep in his heart and has never been forgotten.
Do you remember that Yin Jun once visited Lingnan in his early years, and on that occasion, he was unfortunately captured alive by the incoming Japanese pirates.
Later, because the Yin family secretly paid the ransom, he returned to his hometown alive.
Unexpectedly, his long-standing case was eventually pulled out and formally filed.
The Yin family took great care of this matter and almost exhausted all their family resources. If Zhong Shoufu and the emperor behind the scenes hadn't suppressed the matter, he would probably have been charged with treason.
All of this is thanks to the Japanese pirates. How can Yin Jun not hate it?
He even believed that this was a shame that he could never wash away in his life. If there was a chance, he would settle the matter with the Japanese pirates.
It was precisely because he was holding back this evil spirit that he was filled with righteous indignation and directly threw out the 'Wang Zha', not hesitate to use his own body to angrily anger the officials.
However, the emperor liked it very much!
Yes, as long as they help him stand up and speak, they are all loyal ministers!
"My dear, how do you think this matter should be handled?" the emperor asked warmly.
"Your Majesty, Wei Chen believes that we should appoint some imperial censors and let them go to various places to inspect and inspect to verify the situation of Governor Lu's response. At the same time, we should also let people from the Ministry of Punishment follow us and focus on reviewing the local areas.
There is a case about Japanese pirates... Let’s see what they have to say after all the evidence is revealed!” Yin Jun put forward his own suggestion.
Isn’t it that the reason why everyone is arguing is because of the lack of evidence? If the evidence is irrefutable, who would dare to openly quibble?
Verification is a must!
The emperor nodded, frowned and said: "If the fake Japanese pirates are true, then the local governor will be held accountable. I am worried that this will cause a great shock to the officialdom and be detrimental to the country..."
The governor is a provincial-level official and a veritable official in the border areas. If the court directly holds him to account, it will be embarrassing.
Yin Jun said again: "Your Majesty, if the rotten flesh is not removed, how can new life be born? A moment of pain is better than a lifetime."
Everyone knows the truth.
But it’s difficult to do.
The emperor hesitated, still unable to make a decision.
"Your Majesty, please listen to me. The root cause of the rampant Japanese pirates is the interest chain behind them. If we can cut them off in one fell swoop, it will definitely have a significant deterrent effect. This will be a great benefit to the people!"
"As for your worry about the turmoil in the officialdom, I think it is too much to worry about. As long as the imperial court holds the military power, Xiaoxiao will not dare to make irresponsible remarks. Of course, if your Majesty does not want to punish anyone, you can also pardon them.
." Yin Jun said again.
Yes, I have the right to pardon...
Bystanders know clearly, but the authorities are confused. I was a little too cautious.
"Haha, I love what you said makes sense." The emperor frowned and began to taste tea. Then he smiled and said: "By the way, what do you think of exempting Qiongzhou from taxes for three years?"
Yin Jun thought for a while and said forcefully: "Your Majesty, Qi Yu was ordered to go deep into the barren area in an attempt to save the people from suffering. What he did was an act of righteousness. This is a critical moment for earthquake relief, and the court should be more responsible."
Show your compassion and help if you can. If the emperor's grace can be bestowed upon the land of Qiongzhou, the people of the south will definitely be grateful, so how can they do the opposite again?"
"Hmm...that makes sense..."
In fact, after being criticized by Xiaotong, the emperor had already made a decision in his heart to exempt himself from taxes, but for the sake of face, he was still willing to use the mouth of the courtiers to smooth things over.
The monarch and his ministers were chatting enthusiastically when they suddenly saw San Dezi coming in to report that there was an internal guard who wanted to see him, and he said that he would send him 800 miles to hurry up.
"Xuan!"
The emperor's eyes flashed suddenly and he immediately agreed. This gesture did not mean to avoid Yin Jun at all.
Master Yin was secretly surprised: Ah, your Majesty doesn't treat me as an outsider. What an honor!
…
However, they saw a guard coming in respectfully. After presenting the secret letter, he withdrew under the wave of San Dezi.
The emperor first took a look at the signature place and saw that it was a letter from Huang Fei.
Letter: Qi Yu, the prefect of Qiongzhou, wooed the forces of Zuo Zheng and Harry, and then joined forces with the government army to send troops to Qiongnan to jointly suppress the rebel Na Yan. The date for signing this letter is still early. I think now, they
The coalition forces have already set off.
"hehe……"
The emperor couldn't help but smile as he looked at it. How could the battle to suppress the rebellion be fought like this?
interesting!
After laughing, he forwarded the secret message to Yin Jun who was watching. Upon seeing this, the latter hurriedly accepted it respectfully.
"this……"
When Lord Yin read it, he was also shocked by Qi Yu's methods: This mountain villager could actually come up with such a weird idea!
The monarch and his ministers looked at each other and couldn't help laughing together.
Although this is funny, it is still good news.
The emperor raised his head and looked at the south thoughtfully, and at the same time thought to himself: Qi Aiqing, I hope you will live up to my expectations and return Qiongzhou to long-term peace and stability...
