Yan Song, a young prodigy with excellent calligraphy and artistic temperament, has become a typical symbol of traitorous officials and has been scolded for hundreds of years. Is it just because of corruption, accepting bribes, flattery, forming gangs, partying with the same party and opposing those with different parties, without a bottom line?
?
In fact, none of the above are fundamental problems, or in other words, this is not a problem unique to Yan Song. It is a problem for all mankind at all times and at home and abroad.
The real problem with Yan Song is that his corpse was left unused, causing harm to the country and the people. This cannot be rectified at all, let alone Emperor Jiajing, who is not entirely responsible.
For example, in the 29th year of Jiajing's reign, when the northern barbarians broke through the border wall, burned, killed, and looted around the capital, and the capital was shaken, Yan Song, as the chief minister, actually did nothing and only wrote Qingci behind closed doors.
Because if you do nothing, there will be no fault, no responsibility will be taken, and then you will just find a scapegoat.
Anyway, the Beilu robbed him and left, so what did he do? The soldiers and civilians would be done with it if they suffered.
A dignified chief minister, with such an inhumane attitude when encountering foreign enemies, he deserved to be scolded for hundreds of years.
Qin Dewei didn't want to be like Yan Song in history, so he sighed, "Let's just be a human being."
As a time traveler, it would be a shame for a time traveler to become an enhanced version of Yan Song.
Anyway, after hearing Qin Zhongtang say these words, Fang Sheren suddenly felt that Qin Zhongtang's already tall figure became even taller and full of personality power.
At this time, news was relayed all the way to Wenyuan Pavilion via Dong'an Gate and Donghua Gate. A foreign minister named Feng En, a member of the Household Department, was fighting against the Japanese envoys in conjunction with the Beiguan!
The reason was that some members of the Japanese mission were dissatisfied with the Kanhe distribution and made a noise and besieged Mr. Feng, and then Mr. Feng started fighting directly.
Qin Dewei shook his head when he heard this. Even if this was not expected, it was certainly reasonable.
Mr. Feng has never been good at dealing with such complicated situations. His thinking is also very simple. If you can do it, don't make any noise. It's simple and direct.
So Qin Dewei planned to go to the Huitong Hall first, and Fang Sheren reminded him: "The Zhongtang just said that he would go to Xiyuan to ask for an interview."
Qin Dewei then ordered: "Go to the Yinghe Gate of Xiyuan and tell a guard named Xu Miaojing. When His Majesty summons Guo Xun, Zhu Xizhong, Xia Yan, Yan Song and others who are entering the Zhiwuyi Hall, please inform me immediately.
!”
Although Qin Zhongtang didn't say what the purpose was, with Fang Sheren's IQ, he could guess it with a little guesswork.
If such a serious incident of Northern invaders occurred in Datong and Shanxi, the emperor would probably summon the civil and military ministers serving in Xiyuan to ask for advice.
Qin Zhongtang must have wanted to take advantage of the emperor's summons for ministers to discuss, and then run over to ask for an audience, so that he could participate naturally.
If you perform well, you might be able to wrest some power from the cabinet on the spot.
Fang Sheren was in a daze, as if the brilliance of humanity in Qin Zhongtang just now was just an illusion. All roads lead to the capital, and the end of all roads is the struggle for power?
But as a minister, fighting for power is not shabby.
Qin Dewei, who was specially granted access to the Donghua Gate, could arrive at the Huitong North Pavilion in half a quarter of an hour, so the news was delivered quickly.
By the time Qin Zhongtang arrived, the situation had already "calmed down". A large number of Dongcheng soldiers and horsemen, archers from the patrol battalion, and officers and soldiers arrived and took control of the scene.
Seven or eight members of the Japanese mission were neatly arranged on the ground in the front yard, and their injuries were being examined by doctors.
Another party involved, Mr. Feng, stood in the concierge and accepted the "question" from Chen Chun, the censor of Dongcheng City Patrol.
Qin Dewei stood outside the door and asked Mr. Feng: "You are not injured, are you?"
But Mr. Feng ignored Qin Dewei, and instead said to Chen Chun, the censor of the city patrol: "I am not familiar with this Bachelor Qin! Mr. Chen does not need to worry about Bachelor Qin's face, just enforce the law impartially!"
Chen Yushi asked in surprise: "Master Feng, are you serious about what you said?"
Feng En said solemnly: "I have been a close official to the salt patrol censor. Of course I know that there are three things that should be paid attention to in official affairs: fairness, fairness, and fairness!
Therefore, Mr. Chen, you don’t have to have any worries. Please handle this matter impartially and impeach if necessary. The fact that I beat the Japanese barbarians is well established and I have absolutely no complaints!”
Chen Yushi praised: "Master Feng's words are magnificent! Then I will uphold justice and will not deliberately favor Master Feng!"
Feng En winked at Qin Dewei proudly, "Master Feng will always be you Master Feng!"
Suddenly, he heard Chen Yushi continue to say: "I will naturally tell the court that Mr. Feng is upright and courageous, powerful to the barbarians, and has a clean and honest character. He has no chance of connecting to foreign countries. He is suitable to replace the Ming Dynasty to declare the national prestige to the barbarians.
Can be recommended as the chief officer of the resettled Ningbo Shipping Department!"
Feng En said in shock: "You call this justice?"
Chen Yushi said with integrity: "Master Feng, please don't make random guesses. Which of my words is unfair?"
Feng En suddenly turned his head, looked at Qin Dewei who was standing outside the door, and shouted angrily: "Qin Dewei, can you show some respect to others? This censor is the person you arranged in advance?"
Qin Dewei asked everyone to disperse and led Mr. Feng alone while saying, "This has nothing to do with respect. It is for your own good that you are not allowed to stay in the imperial court."
Feng En was even more annoyed, "Why is it not good for me to stay in the capital?"
Qin Dewei replied enigmatically: "If you can't even solve the simplest problem, don't even think about staying in the capital."
Feng En's reason had already told him not to take the bait, but he still said habitually: "What's the problem?"
At this time, we just arrived at the Dong'an Gate of the Imperial City. The Jinshui River flows through Dong'an Gate.
Opposite Dong'anmen, there is a bridge spanning the Jinshui River, named Huang'en Bridge.
Standing on the Huangen Bridge, Qin Dewei pointed to the Jinshui River under the bridge and directly tortured his soul: "If Xia Shoufu and I both fall into the Jinshui River, which one will you save first?"
Feng En suddenly fell into deep thought. Why is this problem so difficult?
After walking for a short distance, Qin Dewei remembered something and the instructor said: "Also, you did something wrong today, why are you so rude!"
Feng En was still thinking about the age-old problem of who to save first, and replied absentmindedly: "You only gave a few Kanhe, there is no enough for them to share! If you don't worry about the shortage but the inequality, there will definitely be trouble. If you don't cut the mess quickly,
So what?"
Qin Dewei replied: "You should sit in the room, call them one by one, and give each person a sealed paper envelope.
A few of them are real surveys, and most of the rest are blank. Then you ask the Japanese not to open them and read them before leaving the Ming Dynasty, otherwise the surveys will be invalid!
In this way, these Japanese will only be suspicious of each other and will not cause trouble on the spot. What will they have to do with us in the future?"
Mr. Feng clenched his fists and said, "I have reason to suspect that you deliberately refused to tell me in advance."
Ahead was the Donghua Gate of Miyagi City. Qin Dewei took a quick step and slipped into the doorway.
Mr. Feng wanted to catch up and fight, but was blocked by the guards guarding the door.
