Faced with Mr. Li's request to investigate the case, the dignified Empress Dowager Bingzheng could not personally argue with Li You, and no ministers in the palace came forward to speak.
In the Ming Dynasty, where it was common for civil servants to criticize each other and expose their shortcomings, everyone had always held political opponents to the highest moral standards, and no one could cover up any shortcomings. As long as these ministers in the palace had the slightest scruples, who would be willing to engage in the ugliness of assassinating scholars?
The ultimate reputation? With this, it is almost impossible to live in infamy for eternity without being scolded by political opponents. You will never be able to live in peace as an official for the rest of your life.
The old chief assistant also made up his mind. He only opened his mouth to discuss the matter of succeeding as chief assistant and ignored everything else. He remained unchanged in response to all changes and was determined not to be fooled by Li You. Who knows what mystery Li You hid in this.
.
Therefore, there was no manpower, and the Empress Dowager Qian, who had no idea, could only remain silent for the time being. Pulling Li You down with the imperial staff was indeed a solution, but it could not solve the problem. After only two blows, Li You's momentum increased.
Several magnitudes, if the fight continues, people's hearts will be pushed to Li You's side.
The Empress Dowager Cisheng, who acted as king, once again felt the helplessness of her ancestors.
His arrogance rose, and Li You, who was unyielding in power, kowtowed again, banged the gold bricks on his forehead, and loudly said in an extremely disrespectful voice: "How can there be a person who is supported by the country and punished without teaching! The evil is hidden, and the people's hearts are hard to calm down. Righteousness
Where is the truth? Where is the law of heaven! I am willing to take this body and sweep away the strong beams to relieve the worries of the Holy Mother!"
The sound is as powerful as gold and stone, coupled with the messy and miserable clothes behind the imperial staff, it looks like a minister of justice! It makes people want to cheer.
The Queen Mother is still silent, not because she doesn't want to clear herself, but because she knows that she can no longer give Li You the right to speak. She had finally set up a trap to have Li You dismissed and exiled, and she would drive him out of the capital. If she gives him this again
He hesitates to take the opportunity and seizes the case to turn everything upside down. With his cunning, God knows how many more troubles will arise.
In fact, strictly speaking, Mr. Li has been deposed at this time. He is not a courtier and is no longer qualified to speak and discuss matters in the palace. Therefore, he chose to expose the scandal related to the Sixth Supervisor Student Case and the Qian family at this time. To a certain extent,
Speaking, it is also so that I can speak in the temple.
But it would be a mistake to think that Mr. Li's mind is so simple. His real intention was not to force the Queen Mother to give him the power to investigate the case again.
There is no point in investigating this case or not. Mr. Li is no longer interested in it. The real purpose of his statement was to isolate Queen Mother Qian.
This goal seems to have been achieved. However, there is never too much profit in business. It is difficult to have a second chance of the current good opportunity. Mr. Li does not want to have the painful experience of being beaten with a stick for the second time. And
First, continue selling like crazy to make enough money.
Fortunately, Cui Jiansheng reminded him that "you can have the intention to harm others, but you must have the intention to guard against others." If he had been really loyal and cut off all the evidence pointing to the Qian family, he would have been completely helpless today.
It was said that Queen Mother Qian had gradually realized that something was wrong. Looking at the loyal ministers who were hiding their heads and shrunk, she felt that the atmosphere of disunity was permeating, as if the foundation she had worked hard for many years collapsed in an instant.
At this time, no one would come out to help Empress Dowager Qian refute and rebuke Li You, unless they were shameless villains who did not care about public opinion. Now Mr. Li has evolved into the embodiment of natural justice through building momentum.
In other words, if there is no external pressure, it may be a good deal. It may be cost-effective to be a villain to ask for favors and favors for the sake of the Holy One. But at present, Master Xu is eyeing the enemy and has strong power. Being a villain is definitely a loss-making business... I didn't see Zhang Shoufu.
Are you still speechless?
At this point, Empress Dowager Qian finally recognized the reality. If she continues to pretend to be confused, she will lose her heart. She can't help but hate her brother who has failed to achieve anything but failed. She is still kept in the dark. Since she committed something, why?
I didn't confess to her earlier! As a result, I was caught by the foreign minister first and hurt myself!
Hate returned to hate, but Empress Dowager Qian considered the gains and losses again. When she was alive, she could still make others restrain themselves. In this case, it would be relatively advantageous to finalize the case, and the matter would be fully understood. If she blindly protects her now, she will wait until she lives forever.
If the public case was uncovered again, the conviction would be ten times more serious than it is now. Presumably the emperor would not defend his uncle for political purposes at that time.
With the plan in mind, the Empress Dowager Cisheng issued an edict: "Zhang, Fang, the second junior official of Taixue, will be sent to the Ministry of Punishment. The case will be handed over to the Tribunal for Trial. Qian An and his son will appear in court for questioning. If they are involved, they will not be tolerated."
!If the discipline is not strict, Ai Jia will issue an edict to offend him!"
He added with true hatred: "Li You will leave the capital within three days, no delay!"
As soon as these edicts were uttered, all the ministers exclaimed that Li You had really become famous! This time it was not a name for his talent in poetry, but a reputation that could be used as hard currency in official circles!
Immediately, regardless of whether they were friends or foes, all the ministers in the palace focused their attention on Li You, witnessing the rising star of Jing He's political career with various complicated expressions.
He spoke out righteously, criticized noble relatives, insulted his saintly appearance, and admonished the emperor to change his ways. He was brutally punished by the imperial staff and demoted from the capital.
The template composed of these adjectives full of majesty and righteousness was extracted and condensed from the deeds of countless sages in Qing history, and now it can be applied to Mr. Li without fail.
Although it is not so perfect, there is a lot of water. For example, there are many doubts about the imperial staff first and then the blunt statement. For example, the gold content of the imperial staff in just two strokes is very questionable... but it is also rare!
You must know that since Jing Hechao, no one else can achieve these achievements at the same time, and no one is closer to that glorious template than Mr. Li at this moment.
How can we enjoy the prosperous times without embellishment by virtuous ministers who are upright and upright? How can we not be graced by role models like Fang Yan who dare to admonish? Good rain knows the season, and spring will happen!
Some people lamented, why is he the biggest winner again today? Mr. Li's two strokes of the imperial staff were so worth it. He not only gained the reputation of the imperial staff but also had the benefit of not being seriously injured. In the end, he forced the Queen Mother to give in. Now he
I don't know how high my reputation will grow.
Just the fact that he was the first among the ministers of the Jinghe Dynasty to be punished for committing an offense against his saintly appearance is enough to make him look down upon all the other officials... not to mention that he also managed to get someone to support the emperor's personal administration. The future probably belongs to this 19-year-old young man.
human.
Those ministers who have reached the second or third rank may be a little envious, but they are still calm. After all, they have almost reached the pinnacle of officialdom.
However, the twenty-odd seventh-grade science and technology officials present were all obsessed with the phenomenon in front of them and could not help themselves. They were intoxicated... You must know that science and technology officials rely on their reputation to earn money and upgrade. Li You today
To Yan Guan, what he encountered was a miraculous dream scene, and he wished he could learn how to seize the body and replace it.
The Empress Dowager Cisheng glanced at the ministers and sighed. She should not have been deceived by the civil servants back then and completely dismissed the middle officials and factory guards. Only now do I know that as the Ming Dynasty, the most loyal people to you are still the eunuchs...
How many favors has this Li You received? Not only did he get promoted to a higher position, there were even rumors in the palace that he was a relative of his, but today he still sided with Xu Daohong without hesitation!
The old chief assistant, Zhang Ruoyu, was working together to support each other a moment ago. However, Li You casually said, "The chief assistant is guilty of supervising the murder case", but he did not dare to refute the case and allowed Li You to force the palace!
The more I think about it, the more painful I feel.
Master Li, who was about to be expelled from the capital, stepped forward to apologize and apologize under the spotlight.
The ministers in the palace were still watching Li You, but the court ceremony was a bit chaotic. At this time, a faint sound of sobbing penetrated into the ears.
Strange, where did the crying sound come from in the palace? The ministers looked around, only to find that the figure in the bead curtain above was lowering his head and raising his hands, as if wiping tears with his sleeves.
Everyone was stunned. The Empress Dowager Cisheng actually lost her temper and cried on the spot in the Golden Palace... Li You, who was about to salute, was also shocked.
"You have been favored by the country in this life, but now you are forcing me, the orphans and widows of the Zhu family, to fight for everything, and nothing goes as planned. I want to see the emperor's funeral..." Empress Dowager Qian was choked with sobs and could hardly speak, and said intermittently.
The Empress Dowager was about to burst into tears, and all the ministers who had regained their consciousness stopped to pay homage, one after another pleading guilty: "I am guilty!"
Thinking about it again, although the Queen Mother is responsible for the government, sits on the throne and exercises imperial power, and is usually referred to as the Holy Lord by everyone, she is not a male emperor, but is essentially a widow in her mid-thirties.
If you push an adult emperor to tears, you can still be called upright and upright. But if you push orphans and widowed mothers to tears... you can look through the history books and see what kind of people have done such things.
Ever since the crying figure appeared in the curtain, Mr. Li knew that he had gone too far again. When he came into the public's sight again, wouldn't he turn from little Yi Yin and little Zhou Gong into little Wang Mang and little Cao Cao?
The contrast between before and after is troubling. Could it be that Mr. Li who "fights to the death of admonition" will become Mr. Li who "bullies orphans and widowed mothers" in the future?
Another first?
Indeed, the eyes that fell on him were no longer as enthusiastic as before. But Mr. Li was worthy of being Mr. Li, and he still remained unrepentant and maintained his attitude of not shocking others with his words.
"I have been in the cabinet for half a year and have had many contacts with many great scholars. Mr. Piaotian Literature Network is flattering and flattering, Mr. Peng Ge is pretentious in his writing, and Mr. Yang Ge is still young. Only Mr. Xu Ge is disciplined in his advancement and retreat, strict in his laws, and modest.
"Yi, being good at accepting people's words is actually the prime minister of Yuan Fu!"
…
…
…
Okay, if you heard me correctly, before he left, Mr. Li commented on the conduct of the prime ministers as a sixth-grade magistrate, and then recommended his political enemy Mr. Xu Ge to succeed him as the chief minister?
The two bachelors, Yuan Ge Lao and Peng Ge Lao, were the two most promising to serve as the first assistant. When they heard that Li You actually introduced Xu Ge Lao, they immediately cursed Li You in their hearts in unison.
The newly minted Xu Cifu smiled knowingly, Li You actually had the same idea as him, and even helped him start the problem first.
Although Mr. Xu Ge was only able to join the cabinet because the old chief minister forcibly quoted him, his own qualifications and reputation were very poor, so he could only rely on Mr. Peng Ge. But because of this, it would be best for Mr. Xu Ge to succeed the chief minister.
The old chief assistant probably knew that his protégé was not yet powerful, so he wanted to push his protégé, Mr. Peng Ge, to the top? He is now strongly supporting his protégé and will see what he does, Xu Cifu secretly thought.
The next story in Wuying Palace has nothing to do with the controversial Mr. Li. He stepped out of the palace and climbed down the stairs. It was noon, the sun was shining brightly in the sky.
Looking back on today's ups and downs, when I get old, I can brag to my children and grandchildren: "On that day in the eighth year of Jinghe, when I was nineteen years old, I forced the old chief minister to resign, and I directly promoted the new chief minister and the new chief minister.
When he took office, he once made the Queen Mother cry, once suffered the first imperial cudgel from the Jinghe Dynasty, and once became the instant idol of all the officials of the Ming Dynasty..."
For some reason, Mr. Li couldn't help but sing loudly, "Success or failure has turned away, the green mountains are still there." Under the surprised gaze of the imperial guard, he tore off the tooth tag from his waist that symbolized his status as a court counselor and threw it onto the royal road.
Then he left the numerous palace palaces and walked away.
Postscript: In February of the eighth year of Jinghe, the former Shangbao Sicheng and Zhongshusheren Li You were fined one year for losing their dental plaque.ro!.
