Chapter 100 Extreme one-for-one exchange (please order first)
Chapter 100: One-for-one exchange (first order requested)
After listening to this long and sincere cry of remonstrance, no one could accuse Yang Tinghe of having other thoughts.
Everyone has said that you are indeed a talented and heroic warrior, and I support you sincerely. The advice I give now is also for your consideration.
It's just that Liang Chu, Wang Qiong and others have been found out and the real evidence is difficult to recover, so they should naturally be dealt with.
As for other people, you can think that there are not many clean things in the court, and you can replace them with others in the future, but never at this moment.
Including me!
I can leave. I admit that my words and deeds are inconsistent with each other, and I don’t have to be “arrogantly staying in the stage”.
The heartfelt words of a veteran of four dynasties were expressed in such a long paragraph of literary talent, coupled with the "acting skills" that he had honed throughout his life, Zhu Houcong applauded from the bottom of his heart and wanted to give him an award.
But no, now the pressure is on him.
If there is actual evidence, it is just a flaw.
Wang Qiong and the others cannot be protected this time, otherwise they will be impunity and their prestige will be lost. At the very least, they will be transferred from their posts to the center temporarily.
But if the will to continue the investigation cannot be carried out, then Yang Tinghe has completely dominated the rhythm this time.
Let’s not talk about anything else. If word spreads about Yang Tinghe’s performance, I don’t know how many people will be “moved to tears”.
As for the truth or falsehood of your words, who cares? Your butt determines your head.
How did the fire start? Qian Ning, didn't Jiang Bin's case start before the emperor ascended the throne? Didn't he ignore the evidence after finding it? Didn't he ask the emperor to make a decision?
Under such circumstances, insisting on continuing the trial turned into a situation where Yang Tinghe tried his best to put out the fire, and the emperor insisted on adding fuel to the fire.
This sense of proportion actually changes subtly due to a performance.
Does Zhu Houcong really not care whether there is chaos in the court?
The central government is unstable, the capital is in chaos, local areas are confused, and internal and external troubles are coming. This is not alarmist talk.
He Yang Ting and Zhu Houcong were just playing cards and making an exchange.
This time, he did not exchange, just to achieve his goal, even at the cost of leaving the court.
If the Holy Will still decides to get to the bottom of it, then he has exhausted his benevolence and justice.
When the emperor was silent, Yuan Zonggao stepped forward again, and he knelt down with the same solemn salute: "The old minister did not think that Mr. Yang Ge had inconsistent words and deeds, so he should not be shameless in Taige anymore. Mr. Yang Ge is a minister of the country, and he is prudent in pursuing the country.
I also respect you! Today's affairs in the country are complicated and there are many accumulated shortcomings. The court cannot be separated from the important ministers of the country, nor can it be without capable ministers! The old man said that if the water is clear, there will be no fish, but even if the water is clear, there will be no fish. There is no solid evidence for this.
The ministers are like this, the great heavenly official, the great agricultural minister, the great general constitution, etc. are also like this!"
"Baopuzi" says: Small defects are not enough to damage a great weapon, and shortcomings are not enough to hinder a talent. "Zuo Zhuan" also says: A small defect cannot cover up a great virtue. Who has no faults? But mistakes can be corrected.
, There is nothing better than a good thing! In the past, the power of traitors and sycophants was overwhelming. The ministers had no choice but to do so, and the elders also thought so. The court's reward and punishment laws must not be unfair. The veteran's immeasurable merits were favored by the Holy Spirit and invited him to the Taiwan Pavilion. He was ashamed. Wang Qiong
Isn’t it true that after many years of service without any special merit, he should be deposed because of a momentary and unavoidable mistake in the past?”
"The old minister is ignorant. In the third year of Hongzhi's reign, he was born with the same title as Jinshi. As the great uncle, he has been trembling with fear. He is afraid that people in the world will say that your majesty is using him as an inhumane. If he is appointed to the cabinet again, he is afraid that his talents and virtues are not ready! However, the old minister has served as the head of the palace for many years.
I also inspected one side and knew how difficult everything was. I am willing to use my life as a guarantee and ask your Majesty to order Wang Qiong and others to remain in their original posts, to make meritorious service and to change their past mistakes. After today, if Wang Qiong and others have any wrongdoing again, they will be punished by me.
Exactly! The Ming Dynasty has not reached the prosperous age of eight million taels per year, and the old minister has no face to join the cabinet! The old minister is brave and begs for grace! I hope that your majesty will remember the old minister’s hard work for many years and conclude the case!"
Wang Qiong knelt aside and burst into tears.
Another person who bets his future.
Liang Chu wanted to leave the cabinet and take on everything by himself, but it was useless.
He himself has been found to have real evidence, so what qualifications does he have to influence the situation? It is nothing more than using Yang Tinghe to force out a cabinet minister as soon as he takes action, creating invisible pressure on Yang Tinghe.
But this time Yang Tinghe was so determined that this method was useless.
It's different now.
Yuan Zonggao changed his view and agreed with Yang Tinghe's suggestion not to investigate further, but used his reasons to apply to Wang Qiong and others.
Naturally, it is not enough for a person to have no faults. Impunity will cause big problems.
However, he gave up joining the cabinet in full public view!
He used his status as a former minister and quasi-cabinet minister to vouch for Wang Qiong and others!
Likewise, he once again supported the emperor in finding ways to double his annual income in the future.
To achieve this goal, other than reform, what else can be done?
When Zhu Houcong expressed his stance and had not yet decided whether to reform or not, Yuan Zonggao was selling his identity, blocking everyone's mouths, and delaying the decisive game at the same time.
After all, the new law has not yet begun. Yang Tinghe could only use the words "the road is dangerous, drive slowly" to dissuade him from the long performance.
Zhu Houcong looked at Yang Tinghe.
His move this time forced Liang Chu away, and now as long as Zhu Houcong nods, he has blocked Yuan Zonggao's possibility of joining the cabinet.
When the annual income reached eight million taels, when did it happen? Will Yuan Zonggao survive until that time?
Yang Tinghe looked at the ground, his arms shaking slightly.
He doesn't want to win like this. What is Liang Chu planning? Wang Qiong is the top priority.
What's more, is this considered a victory now? In the eyes of some people, the emperor's defeat was so heroic that even the capital of his former ministers had to sacrifice his future.
Or it will be a complete success, in which case it will work even if there is a deep rift between the king and his ministers. Time will prove everything.
If it’s neither up nor down at this moment, what does it count?
But Yuan Zonggao's identity is too special. After he has already supported him in not continuing the investigation, will he continue to oppose him using his political future to guarantee Wang Qiong and others?
Yang Tinghe closed his eyes and sighed deeply in his heart.
Liang Chu confessed, Wang Qiong confessed, Yan Song stabbed him in the back, and Yuan Zonggao cut his own future. The emperor seemed to have already won the hearts of his ministers, and they all used their words and deeds to put pressure on themselves.
Today, Yang Ting and Wei Lingjun are all in power.
Even the sincere petition was immediately given a part of the "credit" by Yuan Zonggao.
If the emperor nods now, wouldn't it be the result of the joint efforts of the old and new ministers?
Zhu Houcong looked at Yuan Zonggao again, feeling that he was too excited this time.
But it doesn't matter, it doesn't change the result.
Aren’t the eighteen top chairs in the royal study just to guard against this possibility?
Yang Tinghe probably thought this was a "decisive battle," but in Zhu Houcong's mind, this wasn't even the opening scene, it could only be regarded as a warm-up.
This drama about seeking wealth under the new law directed by him will not begin until Wang Shouren arrives in Beijing.
"Since Uncle Zong has made such a request, let's handle the matter like this." Zhu Houcong stood up straight again, looking down at the ministers, "In the opinion of Grand Scholar Jiang, Wang Qiong and others will each pay the stolen silver and stolen goods, and will also be fined three yuan."
Year, to serve as a warning to others. At the request of the great uncle, I still ordered him to temporarily retain his original position, and to serve his crime. Based on Yang Qing's advice, I ordered all the officials in the capital to report their mistakes in the past years and submit them before the end of the month."
Yuan Zonggao was mentioned, Jiang Mian was mentioned, and finally Yang Tinghe was mentioned.
The names are respectively Jiang University Scholar, Dazong Bo and Yang Qing.
Yang Tinghe's eyes were filled with sadness.
In just one month, the momentum has begun to build up, and this time the emperor does not have to go out personally.
Although those who rushed out for him basically "ended tragically".
But since the emperor is still on the throne, these are just temporary hardships after all.
The emperor began to walk out. Some behind him were reluctant, some were moved, but in the end they still had to shout "Your Majesty, His Majesty."
"Yan Song, Liu Long, follow me back to the palace. What we didn't finish yesterday will be continued today."
"I obey the decree..."
Yang Tinghe looked at the emperor's back with complicated eyes: Should he continue to study the successes and failures of Xining's reform?
The emperor did not resolutely drive Yang Tinghe away. The emperor continued to save Wang Qiong and others in this matter, but also lost the political futures of Liang Chu and Yuan Zonggao.
Who wins and who loses?
Amidst the rustling sound of getting up, Xie Changjie saw Yuan Zonggao's cold eyes.
He knew that he was probably really finished.
The Minister of the Ministry of Personnel is still Wang Qiong, and the Yushi of Zuodu of the Duchayuan is still Chen Jin.
Xie Changjie is no longer a human being everywhere.
Who is the biggest beneficiary of this crisis?
After they dispersed, all the ministers thought in their hearts, and after much thought, it turned out to be Jiang Mian.
Yang Tinghe's actions today personally tore into pieces what the emperor said that day, "the emperor and his ministers are of one mind."
Although he is temporarily left behind, the countdown to his retirement should have begun.
Fei Hong was caught in the whirlpool of public opinion because his nephew was the top pick in high school, Yang Yiqing was going to join the three sides of the total system again, and Yuan Zonggao could no longer join the cabinet.
The cabinet of the first year of Jiajing will most likely be headed by Jiang Mian.
In the capital, when the new scholars who were waiting to be conferred heard the news, several fellow students with whom they had a good relationship looked at Huang Zuo in unison.
Mao Cheng made a special case for him to participate in the imperial examination. He had just welcomed the new emperor to the throne, and Mao Cheng disappeared after the first imperial examination.
Liang Chu ranked him second in the first-class examination. He had just initiated the posthumous title of Yu Qian, and within a few days of being honored by scholars, Liang Chu was gone again.
Why is it so evil?
Do you want to stay away from him? As a fellow weirdo, I feel embarrassed...
"...I'm going to pay a visit to Mr. Liang's house."
Regardless of whether Liang Chu had other sins, he was kind to Huang Zuo.
What's more, the looks in the eyes of his classmates now made Huang Zuo feel depressed, and he really felt like he was giving up on his interest.
Is there really something wrong with me?
