Some families are happy and some are sad. The Qianqiying Yamen office is bustling with excitement, and Chu Qing is happy.
There was a lot of noise in the political hall, and Qiu Wanshan was confused.
Not only Qiu Wanshan was confused, but most of the court officials were also confused.
Wu Shixun, the minister of Taichang Temple, jumped out and sprayed Qiu Wanshan directly.
The original words are: I observe that Qiu Wanshan, the right minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs, has stolen power and authority, and is in a high position. The Ministry of Household Affairs is the lifeline of the country. Qiu Wanshan is not skilled in this way, like a rat guarding a warehouse. Money and food are the foundation of the country. If you carry the holy words and observe the mind,
The people work hard and the treasury is full, so there is no need to worry about foreign enemies that cannot be eliminated. Internal thieves are even better than foreign enemies. Their high position in the household department is a mistake for all the people in the world. In the period of desecrating the saints, looking at their private virtues, they are extravagant in new clothes and new crowns. They must travel and eat.
Most of the meat is spent by officials who spend a lot of money. The great scholars in the capital even call it the old dog who steals documents. The warehouse is solid and knows the etiquette. The food and clothing are sufficient and it knows the honor and disgrace. The poor people in the capital are hungry but they still worry about the affairs of the people and the world. Qiu Wanshan disagrees.
, The law cannot be tolerated, and the etiquette cannot be forgiven. I am a minister in the same palace, and I am in panic all day long. I am so sad and painful.
This exit immediately confused Qiu Wanshan. Before Qiu Wanshan could react, more than a dozen ministers jumped out and offered various opinions.
Moreover, Wu Shixun's work was very formal. Not only had the memorials been written, but several supervisory envoys also submitted memorials and signed their names and joint signatures.
In fact, when the Dachang Dynasty was first established, there was a process for impeachment. Impeachment was not about impeachment if you wanted to, you could impeach if you wanted to.
At first, only the supervisors could exercise this power, and they had to go through the procedures. There were four steps. First, lock the target. This step was mainly to find out where the person made mistakes, and then start the investigation, including interviews among the people, etc., to collect information.
Impeachment can only be formally initiated after evidence is obtained.
The second step is to write a memorial. Whether you come to the palace to impeach in front of the ministers, or you go to the emperor privately, you have to write a memorial to let the emperor and his ministers understand what happened.
The third step is the most important step. Submit the memorial formally, but whether it is in the Palace of Political Affairs or privately to the emperor, it must first be handed over to Zhongshu’s disciples for review. If there are no problems, Zhongshu’s disciples will hand it over to the emperor. The emperor feels that
This matter must be discussed openly before it can be discussed in court.
The last step is to make a ruling. The emperor can make a decision directly, but if the rank is relatively high or the dispute is relatively large, he will discuss it with the ministers in the political hall, and at the same time give the "defendant" a chance to defend himself.
Although there are only four steps, it is extremely cumbersome and takes a long time. At the beginning of the court meeting, an inspector impeached an official who was about to retire. This matter lasted for more than two years, and finally the emperor and his ministers discussed the result.
Now, let this retired official be captured and brought back to the capital for a just trial.
As a result, the Criminal Department went to the retired official's hometown. The official's son said, why are you here? My father has been dead for half a year. You can take him back. You can find a shovel and dig it out yourself.
The emperors who succeeded later tried to simplify the complexity as much as possible and did it again and again, and it became what it is now. Except for the supervisory envoy, anyone can impeach. Of course, the supervisory envoy is not a decoration. The impeachment of ministers can be impeached, but it must be
What you say cannot be without purpose, and the supervisory officer has this privilege. If I hear, I think, and I suspect, then I can impeach, even if there is no evidence, because I have heard, I think, and I suspect, and it is worthy of impeachment.
Than ancient marketing account.
Today, Wu Shixun is taking the retro route. The supervisory envoy has witnesses and physical evidence, and the courtiers who seconded the proposal represent the "people's hearts." The plaintiff Wu Shixun also wrote a memorial and handed it to the Minister of the Ministry of Finance, Ling Nangong Xi.
Huang Laosi, who was sitting on the dragon chair, looked very strange.
As soon as Wu Shixun jumped out, he knew this guy was going to cause trouble.
What Lao Si didn't expect was that Wu Shixun didn't target Chu Qing, but Qiu Wanshan.
In an instant, Huang Laosi figured it out. Wu Shixun was indeed an old fox. He knew that Chu Qing rarely came to court, and among those who helped Chu Qing in court, Qiu Wanshan was the most threatening to these aristocratic families.
none of them.
The other Tao family father and son, General Yunhui Tan Zhongping, Jingzhao Prefecture Ma Rui, etc., it is estimated that these aristocratic families did not take it seriously.
This is indeed the case. Let’s talk about Tao Yao first. It’s true that the prince’s young master and the imperial sergeant Lin are in charge, but they lack experience in court struggle. Let’s talk about Tan Zhongping. Although he supports Chu Qing, he has no education. When he opens his mouth, he says: "
So do I."
Ma Rui is well-educated, but unfortunately Jingzhao Mansion has too many handles. When he criticizes others, others will criticize Jingzhao Mansion. He is like killing a thousand enemies and damaging himself by 18,000, and is like a self-destructing truck. As for Tao Shaozhang...
Uh...uh...uh...
Therefore, everyone including Huang Laosi knew that the number one gold medal thug in Chu Qing's small gang was only Qiu Wanshan. It was precisely because of this that Wu Shixun found the target, linked up with others, and struck first.
After Qiu Wanshan was initially confused, he quickly realized that these people were going to attack Chu Qing.
Lao Qiu was very happy when he reacted.
Although Qiu Wanshan always stole poems to take advantage of others, he was also literate.
As far as the content of the impeachment by Wu Shixun and others is concerned, it is not a serious crime. It is about 30% true and 70% false.
What kind of business ability, old dog stealing papers, extravagant extravagance, etc., 70% of the courtiers in the Manchu Dynasty are like this. To defeat a right minister with such nonsense is nothing more than a fool's dream.
However, Qiu Wanshan also knew that Wu Shixun and others must have back-ups, and this was just a tentative attack.
Wei Changfeng had an angry look on his face, and just as he was about to leave for work, Qiu Wanshan pulled him back with a gentle smile on his face.
When Wei Changfeng saw Qiu Wanshan's smile, he understood in his heart that Lao Qiu didn't care at all.
Lao Qiu didn't say anything, wanting to see what tricks these people were up to.
But there was one person who couldn't stand anymore, Tao Shaozhang, the young minister of Dali Temple.
Seeing that his "comrade" was being criticized, Tao Shaozhang stepped out with his right leg and was ready to speak for Qiu Wanshan.
Qiu Wanshan happened to catch Tao Shaozhang with his peripheral vision, and his heart suddenly thumped.
For the first time, for the first time in history, Qiu Wanshan's face turned pale with fright. He almost ran out of the class and knelt down directly on the ground, saying three words---I know my guilt.
Seeing that he was one step ahead and Tao Shaozhang didn't have time to come out, Qiu Wanshan breathed a sigh of relief.
The whole palace was in an uproar, and the emperor and his ministers were dumbfounded.
Qiu Wanshan, the number one cutter in the court, the gold-medal thug of Chu Qing's gang, who kills people without losing any blood but seals his throat with a knife, just gives in?
No one expected that Qiu Wanshan would give in immediately?
Not only did Qiu Wanshan give in, he also gave in very thoroughly.
After taking off his official hat, Lao Qiu expressed his position and went home to wait for participation. He left the work matters to his subordinate officials. When the investigation is clear, whether he should continue to work or be convicted, the monarch and his ministers will give the result.
This is no longer giving in, but also accepting fate.
Wu Shixun and others, who had prepared a lot of dirty information, had calculated everything except Qiu Wanshan, who simply gave in and accepted his fate.
When Qiu Wanshan said this, Wu Shixun couldn't continue to be entangled.
Because the harsh words have already been said, if you want to say more harsh words, you will have to wait for Qiu Wanshan to quibble, and then everyone will beat him up and slowly escalate the matter.
He gave in on the spot, accepted his fate on the spot, and said on the spot that he would go home and wait for help. This is tantamount to saying that Qiu Wanshan can be manipulated by others. If he does not come to court in the future, Wu Shixun and others can throw dirty water on him as much as they want.
Even Huang Laosi didn't know what Qiu Wanshan had planned and announced the disbandment of the dynasty.
After the dynasty was over, Qiu Wanshan walked out of the political hall alone like an old man, got on the sedan, and went home directly.
Qiu Wanshan's desolate back made people wonder if this guy was tired of fighting in the court and wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to resign and return home.
Qiu Wanshan was indeed very depressed. After returning to his mansion, he took out the box from under the bed. Feeling pain in his heart, he took out fifty thousand silver notes.
