Facing the impeachment led by the Minister of Civil Affairs, Chen Ping argued hard and used the evidence he had collected over the years to refute one by one.
Although he was alone, with his clear thinking and the power of his words, Chen Ping became inextricably linked to the impeachment officials.
It's just that he is still a little green after all, and because not many people are interested in this old incident ten years ago, Chen Ping's situation is gradually at a disadvantage.
"Your Majesty! Chen Ping is arrogant and arrogant. He has only been appointed Hanlin editor for a few days, and yet he has spoken nonsense in the court. Please take away his official position!"
"That's right, this guy will take the imperial examination and leave the capital twice. He doesn't have any respect for his superiors. He dares to roar at the court just because he got six yuan. It's really abominable!"
"..."
In the end, the original debate gradually evolved into an impeachment of Chen Ping himself, and the glory of passing the Six Yuan title turned out to be a ray of light in the dark night in the court, which was particularly dazzling.
Chen Ping calmed down his breathing and stopped speaking, just waiting for something quietly.
Your Majesty, if you want your horse to run, you have to give it something sweet, even if it’s a carrot on its head!
"Enough!"
Seeing that more and more people are impeaching Chen Ping, and the situation is getting out of control, Emperor Tianqi finally can't sit still. He still needs Chen Ping to be his vanguard, how can he be squeezed out now?
Emperor Tianqi chose to fight fifty times each. He first scolded the officials who impeached Chen Ping, and then scolded Chen Ping for paying attention to his attitude. Although both sides criticized him, they clearly favored Chen Ping.
This was undoubtedly a statement of attitude to the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty, and the originally chaotic court suddenly became quiet.
"Your Majesty has learned clearly, and his ministers will send the evidence to the Third Division!"
The grievances of Wang Pingchuan and Ye Wenchang were originally sued by Qi Hongming. As long as Qi Hongming decided to change his identity and put things right, and with the support of the emperor, overturning the case would be easy.
However, his purpose is not just to reverse the case and restore the reputation of his mentor, but more importantly, to use this matter to make His Majesty, who is hiding behind the scenes, put more chips on himself, and even express his attitude!
Obviously, he did it!
Emperor Tianqi waved his hand with a nonchalant expression, and Chen Ping wisely returned to the queue of Hanlin officials.
When he returned to the queue, Chen Ping breathed a sigh of relief. At this moment, he felt that the clothes on his back were soaked, and his legs and feet were even a little stiff.
So nervous!
Fortunately, things were done properly and he got more opportunities for himself. Otherwise, if the Cheng family's background was directly exposed, no matter how the master behind the Cheng family fought back, he would not be able to do well.
But now that this drama has come to an end, Chen Ping can feel that his breathing is much easier. At least before Emperor Bintian, he is no longer an abandoned son who can be abandoned at will, and has even won a place for himself in the court. Due to Chen Ping's interference, the court meeting lasted much longer, and not many people paid attention to the subsequent performance. Officials of all sizes in the court either hid their expressions and thought secretly, or watched Chen Ping closely to observe his words.<
/p>
In short, during this early court meeting, Chen Ping, who was compiled from the sixth rank of the Hanlin Academy, was completely in the sight of the famous courtiers.
As for whether other people's perceptions are good or bad, that is beyond Chen Ping's control.
After the minister of Honglu Temple sang "It's over", the exhausted Emperor Tianqi stood up and left. However, he gave Chen Ping a deep look, with a clear warning in his eyes.
My patience has its limits!
Chen Ping read this meaning from his eyes, and quickly lowered his head obediently, muttering to himself.
Accompanying you is like accompanying a tiger, the ancients will never deceive me!
After Emperor Tianqi left, the eunuch shouted again: "Retreat from the court!"
As a result, the civil and military officials of the Manchu dynasty retreated from the dynasty in order of their previous dynasty. During this period, Chen Ping carefully observed some clues. For example, the Minister of the Ministry of War and the Censor of the Duchayuan looked at him coldly, while the Minister of the Ministry of Industry and the Minister of Rites looked at him coldly.
The eyes are ambiguous, while other people's expressions are as usual.
Chen Ping knew that the Minister of the Ministry of War and the Censor of the Duchayuan were both members of the Chu Party, and that the Ministers of the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Rites were also members of the Chu Party, but there were some differences between these two groups of people.
The former has a close relationship with Emperor Tianqi's younger brother, King Chu, while the latter is not that close. On the contrary, he has become more distant recently.
This information was compiled from the information he received during his two days in the Hanlin Academy and at the court meeting just now. Of course, he also learned a lot of information from his previous conversations with Su Chengli and Qi Hongming.
I can’t guarantee the absolute accuracy, but at least it gave Chen Ping a fairly clear understanding of the high-level situation at Dayu.
All the way back to the Hanlin Academy smoothly, Chen Ping was originally worried that Emperor Tianqi would leave him in the palace to scold him, but he didn't, which also confirmed the success of his plan.
His importance has increased a lot in Emperor Tianqi's heart!
It doesn't matter whether it is a chess piece or not. If you look at the world from a broader perspective, everyone is a chess piece, but it is very important if you don't abandon the chess piece. There are many ways to avoid becoming an abandoned piece, and raising your own value is the simplest way. p>
The first day he went to court was fruitful, but after returning to the Hanlin Academy, he was called over by Xie Jinan.
"You are playing with fire, Chen Ping!"
As soon as they met, Xie Jinan started beating him with a stern tone. Chen Ping was frightened on the surface, but he was happy in his heart.
This is what you want! If you don’t play with fire, how can you get something out of the fire? If you don’t play with fire, I will be burned alive!
"I don't dare. I have always kept in mind what your Majesty has entrusted me to do. I will start now. Keep it safe..."
Xie Jinan frowned, raised his hand to stop him and said, "Shut up! I don't want to know what your Majesty said to you!"
Chen Ping pretended to be panicked and closed his mouth, looking uneasy. His acting skills were as good as those of an Oscar winner.
Xie Jinan took a deep breath and looked at Chen Ping. He was not actually very angry. He was just startled by Chen Ping's actions in the court. Now he wanted to know if Chen Ping had thought twice before he acted.
"Small cleverness can only solve small things, but it won't work in front of big things."
Seeing that he was exposed, Chen Ping stopped pretending and went to show off his cards with Xie Jinan: "Your Excellency, you should know that your Majesty has used this official as a spearman. Regardless of success or failure, your life is at stake. You have no choice but to be clever." "If a little clever can do it, a big clever can do it too, right? Chen Zhuangyuan, who got six yuan."
Chen Ping raised a simple smile. In front of a veteran official like Xie Jinan, these tricks of his were still not enough. No, he had to learn more.
"Your Majesty should hold another morning court in a few days, so don't play any more tricks then."
"Natural, natural."
Chen Ping nodded sincerely. He cheated Emperor Tianqi this morning, and he will definitely pay it back in the future. Otherwise, he will not be able to pass this test first. I am really not afraid that I will not get good results, I am really not.
After exiting Xie Jinan's room and continuing to wander around the Imperial Academy, Chen Ping found that his colleagues in the academy had a much better attitude towards him.
Chen Ping was very emotional about this situation. None of them are good, and there are so many chameleons in the Imperial Academy, which has always been noble.
"Chen Ping, this way, this way!"
While Chen Ping was bored fishing in the yard, he suddenly heard someone calling him. When he looked back, it was Cheng Cheng walking over.
