Originally, there was nothing wrong in the capital these days. Seeing the end of the year, all departments and government offices were preparing for the end of the year. The Ministry of Justice wanted to approve the name of the year, the Ministry of Revenue wanted to liquidate the national treasury, and the Ministry of Rites wanted to prepare for sacrifices to the world. As for the Ministry of Personnel
But he even sharpened his sword and prepared for the Beijing Cha.
Everyone was very busy and had no time to bother with other things, so even the usual arguments were gone. But at this time, something went wrong.
November 14th.
Leadered by Zhu Zan, the right assistant minister of the Ministry of Revenue, dozens of people jointly wrote a letter to reveal that Liu Chengfeng, a hundred households of the Jinyiwei, had a private placement of nearly a thousand private soldiers, and the goal was very large.
There was an uproar in the court.
It was very lively. Perhaps the boring documents were too boring. When the officials of the various departments were having fun, they suddenly seemed to have been injected with chicken blood. The cabinet had not yet expressed their opinions, but all kinds of criticism had begun to spread.
After coming out, the Minister of Justice wrote a letter: Private equity and private soldiers are of great importance and concern to the country. Please immediately entrust the palace to conduct detailed investigations to prevent problems from happening and prevent future troubles.
However, the cabinet was still silent, and even the palace did not reveal a single word.
But everyone knows that behind this silence, there seems to be a volcano that is about to erupt.
What would the palace think?
What would the cabinet think?
This incident was revealed by Zhu Zan, the right assistant minister of the Ministry of Revenue. Zhu Zan’s mentor is Li Dongyang and Li Xueshu. Could it be Li Dongyang behind this incident? Will Li Dongyang instigate Zhu Zan and order him to provoke him
This is true. Could it be that Li Dongyang wants to punish Liu Chengfeng?
If so, then Liu Chengfeng will be dead.
Many people couldn't help but become excited. Liu Chengfeng was in the limelight recently, and the sage family was in full swing. He did countless things that were popular. The so-called wood was fascinated by the forest, and the wind would destroy it. This guy should be in trouble.
Many people sorted out the relationship clearly and seemed to notice something. Behind Zhu Zan is Li Dongyang, behind Li Dongyang is the cabinet. What is behind the cabinet?
Next, more people began to write a letter to talk about the seriousness of raising private soldiers in all dynasties. A hundred households actually recruited more than a thousand people. What was the intention of such unscrupulous one? This matter must be left unresolved.
The cabinet is already a little overwhelmed. In fact, whether it is Liu Jian, Li Dongyang, and Xie Qian, they have guessed some clues. Although Liu Chengfeng looks bold, he is a careful person. The emperor does not nod.
How dare Liu Chengfeng recruit so many hiring people?
At first, Liu Jian was also surprised that although he did not have a good impression of Liu Chengfeng, he might not be so narrow-minded if he asked him to organize a Jinyiwei family. But who is Zhu Zan? Is that what is Zhu Zan?
Binzhi wants to deal with Liu Chengfeng?
But he didn't ask much about this matter. When he saw Li Dongyang, he just smiled slightly and tried not to bring the topic to Liu Chengfeng when he greeted him.
But Xie Qian couldn't stand it anymore. Xie Qian didn't like Liu Chengfeng, but he didn't like him. He was a straightforward person and said whatever he had, but he wanted to say that Liu Chengfeng was planning to be ill and was raising private soldiers.
He didn't agree with it very much. This clearly shows that framed it. Even if you frame it, you just want to find a crime. You can remove his official position or suppress it. But if you want someone to raise a private soldier, you want someone to do so.
The whole family was killed, and dozens or hundreds of people were killed.
So when I came to this room early in the morning, Xie Qian took the pretext to look at the school and report, but his eyes were aiming at Li Dongyang from time to time, wanting to hear how Li Dongyang explained, but Li Dongyang just smiled faintly with Liu Jian
Chatting, Xie Qian finally couldn't help but put away the report with a gloomy face and said coldly: "What's going on in Zhu Zan? The minister of the Ministry of Revenue, the end of the year is coming, and the treasury needs to clarify the report.
He didn't want to work well, but he was so chasing right and wrong. What was he going to do? Hum!"
Although he was scolding Zhu Zan, he obviously attacked Li Dongyang.
In fact, Xie Qian and Li Dongyang have a very good relationship. They respect Li Dongyang and Xie Qian very much. Even Li Dongyang is suspected. Others think that Li Dongyang is a double-faced person, but Xie Qian stood up to support him.
It is precisely because of his trust in Li Dongyang's character that Li Dongyang's inability to defend himself made Xie Qian angry.
Li Dongyang faced Xie Qian's accountability and smiled at Xie Qian, saying, "Mr. Xie, I don't know about Zhu Zan."
Xie Qian's expression finally calmed down.
Liu Jian, who had been silent, said lightly: "So, Zhu Zan made his own decision. This person is usually honest, why is he so aggressive today?"
Li Dongyang wanted to say something, and wanted to tell Liu Jian that Zhu Zan's brothers had done some business in the capital, and this business was inevitably a little unclear, but in the end he couldn't help it. Zhu Zan, after all, was
His disciple, he sighed, a trace of complexity flashed through his eyes, and said lightly: "Is there any movement in Liu Chengfeng?"
Xie Qian said, "I haven't heard of any movement. Such a great crime is not something he can bear, so he should naturally be careful at this time, walking on thin ice, and every mistake is all cut off. Speaking of which, I'm
I sympathize with him. Although I have become a little bit arrogant, I have made contributions to the court and am a person who is willing to do things..."
Xie Qianyue said that his face was getting calmer and slower, but he felt that Liu Chengfeng didn't seem to be that hateful. He had never offended him, but he was so jealous of him in the past?
He couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly. He thought that he had not had enough skills in self-cultivation and was too harsh. He was a cabinet minister in the current dynasty, and he was angry with a little baby.
Liu Jianhe nodded: "Let them make trouble. I want to see what Zhu Zan is planning? Binzhi, he is your disciple. Do you want to ask?"
Li Dongyang thought for a while and shook his head, "No need, the year is approaching, so let's finish the cabinet's affairs first. Don't pay attention to these messy things."
Liu Jian and Xie Qiandu nodded, and each returned to their own documents and began to sort out the memorials.
I thought the matter would end soon, no matter what measures the palace or the cabinet would take against Liu Chengfeng, but no one expected that the palace would not respond. Even the cabinet was desperately urging the ministries to prepare for the New Year.
But on November 16th, things changed. A memorial handed over from Nanjing caught everyone off guard. The person who handed over the book clearly did not want everyone to have a good New Year.
But there are also people with good things, and they are also excited at this time.
Have fun.
This memorial was written by Wang Dan, the doctor of the Nanjing Ministry of Justice, but the contents were enough to disturb the court's respite.
There is only one meaning in the memorial. The incident of Shouning Hou and Jianchang Bo invading the land is in vain. All of this is nothing more than eunuch Xiao Jing, who is prone to making trouble. In order to seek a reputation, he deliberately framed the palace and asked the palace to return to the new.
When examining this case, don’t let the traitor succeed.
Who is the traitor?
Of course it is Xiao Jing.
The victims were Jianchang Bo and Shouning Hou.
This memorial was sent to the inner court by the Tongzhengsi Department, which immediately triggered an earthquake, and even Empress Zhang was shocked at this time.
What is this Wang Dan thinking? Is it because he wants to curry favor with this palace and get benefits? Yes, this man went to Nanjing and had no future in his life. In order to return to Beijing, he chose to take a gamble.
However, this memorial from him killed Empress Zhang.
The reason is very simple. Some people ask for a retrial. Naturally, someone will think about what Wang Dan is going to excuse the Hou of Shouning and Jianchang Bo and bring up the old things again? Some people may even think of Empress Zhang and think that Wang Dan,
It was instructed by Queen Zhang to overturn the case for the Zhang family.
The empress interferes in political affairs, covers up the crimes of her brothers, attempts to call a deer a horse, and turns black and white into black. This...
Queen Zhang died unjustly. She looked at the memorial left and right, bit her lip and didn't say anything. Then she looked at Zhu Youzhang with an innocent look. Zhu Youzhang sighed and said, "I always feel that these days
It seems that something is going to happen, but I don’t know what will happen. I will keep this memorial for the time being. Queen, don’t defend yourself for the time being. Let’s see what tricks these people are playing.”
Queen Zhang naturally said that it was.
It was just that the emperor left the memorial, which caused an uproar.
Everyone knows that the evidence of Jianchang Bo and Shouning Hou encroaching on the land is conclusive. Xiao Jing's matter is not only done fairly, but also handled it very appropriately. Why is someone bringing up the old things now? This is to overturn the verdict, and someone wants to deal with Xiao
My father-in-law takes action.
Although Xiao Jing was at the center of this spiral, he had been silent. When he saw the memorial, he showed suspicion in his eyes, but did not act rashly, because he knew that this matter would not be so simple, and he could not jump out.
.
But Xiao Jing didn't jump out, but many people had already sharpened their knives. Xiao Jing not only had a good reputation in the inner court, but also in the court. This memorial was equivalent to killing many people.
Blood.
The Qingliu people were angry. This matter was probably either Wang Dan wanted to seek credit and favor the inner palace, or was instructed by the Zhang family to overturn the verdict.
It’s not so easy to overturn the verdict. Since you want to play, let’s accompany you to the end.
On that day, more than a dozen censors jointly submitted a memorial to refute Wang Dan's memorial, and even was very rude to the words of Shouning Hou and Jianchang Hou. Some even directly called him accusing Shouning Hou of being a relative of the country.
The emperor was asked to punish Hou Shouning, Jianchang Bo and Wang Dan.
Zhu Youzhang did not express his opinion during the court discussion, but just replied: "I understand."
I know, the meaning of this sentence is to say, don't say it anymore.
But this is just an appetizer, but the real good show is behind. Since the emperor told everyone not to say it, this means that Your Majesty favored Shouning Hou, Jianchang Bo, Wang Dan and others. This is great. The emperor is wise, but now
There is a villain who is on the side, instigating right and wrong, and accusing loyal and kind-hearted people. Since Your Majesty said he knew, he had to take action seriously.
The next morning court, dozens of ministers demanded severe punishment for Jianchang Bo, Shouning Hou and Wang Dan. They had already determined that Wang Dan was instructed by the uncle.
This time is different from yesterday. Yesterday is nothing. Everyone just tests the attitude of the palace first. But now, they are all ready. There are also many envoys who have collected Jianchang Bo and Shouning in recent years.
Evidence of Hou’s illegality, such as taking up money, instigating people to commit crimes, and their children in their families are scattering their lives, etc.
Everyone has only one goal, Shouning Hou and Jianchang Bo, as a relative of the country, acted debaucherously and should be demoted as the people to serve as a warning. As for the king, he would flatter him and have ulterior motives, he could immediately dismiss his official position and never
Used for narration.
Such punishment is unacceptable to Shouning Hou, Jianchang Bo and Wang Dan.
Zhu Youzhang was already full of anger, but he had nowhere to do it. It would be okay to deal with Wang Dan, but you still have to deal with Hou Shouning and Jianchang Bo. The queen only has two younger brothers, so how can she say that she can cut her title just?
He did not speak, and responded to the court officials in silence.
The entire capital is about to come.
At this time, Hou Shouning and Jianchang Bo were finally scared. They didn't dare to go out of the gate and didn't dare to step on the gate. This time, they were really scared. Who would have thought that a doctor from the Ministry of Justice who was far away in Nanjing would go to such a place.
A memorial actually attracted the disgust of civil and military officials in the court, so they refused to give up if they were not allowed to end.
