The position of many civil servants is not complicated.
That is, you can mess with Yuan Yingtai, but you can't mess with our civil servants as a whole.
Since I expressed my approval and admiration for the civil servants Xiong, Zhang, and Wang, I am not trying to cause the rise of warriors and climb on top of the civil servants, so I and other unrelated people have no need to antagonize you.
The expressions of these people gradually relaxed, changing from anxious and concerned to enjoying the show.
"Humph, this mentality is so real and ugly."
Wang Hongyu has long seen through the minds of these guys.
The "dragon slaying" theory of later generations can only be understood more deeply after personal experience.
Among the officials, Zou Yuanbiao, who was standing in the second row of the official department, and Hong Chengchou, who was standing further back in the criminal department, looked at Wang Hongyu in a different way.
They never thought of staying away from the matter and always had some good impressions of Wang Hongyu.
Now I am even more impressed with how courageous and wise he is despite being so young.
Up to this point, they both thought the same thing, but the subsequent divergence was quite different.
At this time, Zou Yuanbiao thought about what his student Ai Youzhi had told him. He was very concerned about the changes in the She family and the An family in the southwest. It seemed that someone was finally going to take action to solve the situation in the southwest. My Nangao Academy must give him full support.
.
Hong Chengchou felt a little bit sad in his heart. He was a very young man, but he had people in the palace and he had no background, so he rose up in a year, and he was still working in the Ministry of Punishment. He must become more diplomatic, he must
Prepare your abilities in advance, and you must be more ruthless to yourself, so that you can catch up with him
On the other side, Young Master Sun Chengzong gently stroked his majestic beard, calmly analyzed the situation, and was amazed at Wang Hongyu in his heart.
He saw that this speech was eye-catching at the beginning, but left civil servants stunned at the end. How clever this was.
At this moment, Wang Hongyu did not look at the officials involved in the matter, such as the Ministry of Personnel, the Ministry of War, and the Metropolitan Procuratorate. Instead, he glanced at him abruptly.
?!
He didn't pay too much attention to the people with real power. Instead, he looked at Zhan Shifu, who was responsible for the emperor's lectures and internal affairs.
What does this mean?
Could it be that
Wang Hongyu saw Sun Chengzong.
His burly figure and astonishingly powerful beard were immediately noticeable.
In the first year of the Apocalypse, which was 1621, the court actually only needed to do one thing well.
That is, if Emperor Tianqi supports it, you can obtain the ultimate resources.
Tianqi is actually a very emotional person, and he regards this emotion rather than any political party. For example, Wei Zhongxian, the Hakka family will be favored, and Sun Chengzong of Donglin will be promoted quickly.
As for the eunuch Wang An, although he is an old man who follows Tianqi's father in the East Palace, in his eyes, he is a guy who betrayed or seduce him, and who took advantage of his youth to collude with the outer court to influence his existence.
Then there will be no old feelings.
Therefore, Wang Hongyu believes that the way to get along with each other is very simple. If you support him, he will support you. Don't do anything that goes too far to betray him, and you can have a good relationship.
Chief Assistant Ye Xiang Gaoluo added a few words, saying that he should be rewarded, but there was not much else to say.
Because, Tianqi is going to speak next.
Zhu Youxiao stood up slowly and took a deep breath. Even though he was not a very face-saving person, it was still quite stressful to issue an edict against oneself.
However, if we do not issue an edict to punish ourselves, we will give the Donglin Party and other civil servants room for maneuver.
Wang Hongyu told himself in a secret letter that severe punishment with thunder would play into their own agenda. People sometimes remember the results rather than the process, and they will only remember that in the end they punished the officials severely, not that these officials did something excessive.
Instead of doing this, it is better to retreat in order to advance!
"I have been thinking about this for a long time, and I have issued an edict to punish myself, so that the world will not distinguish between civil and military affairs, north and south, high and low when it comes to serving the country."
The word "serve the country" used here is actually inspired by the bloody battle of Hunhe River where Qi Jin persuaded Tong Zhongkui: "A man should serve his country today!"
Then Wei Zhongxian recited the "Edict of Sin" directly on Tianqi's behalf.
"The late Emperor Wanli and the father Emperor Taichang were both kings with the world in mind. I inherited the throne in a hurry at the age of fifteen, and I deeply felt the weight of the world's trust...
I am young and the slave chief is old and fierce, I am weak in culture but the slave chief is brave. I have never stepped into the battlefield and am ashamed of Taizu and Chengzu's martial arts. However, the slave chief must be arrogant in front of the battle in every battle. This is my crime.
I intended to renew the world, but I did not expect to rely on non-human beings, which led to the rampant establishment of slaves and the loss of Liaoyang and Shenyang. This is my second crime.
People in Liaoyang and Shenyang have been displaced, refugees from western Liaoning have gathered, and southern Liaoning is under the enemy's blade. This is my crime.
I have committed four crimes by investing the treasury in Liaodong on a large scale, but much of the blood and sweat of the people has fallen into the hands of the enemy.
I have committed five crimes by listening to slanderous words and imprisoning loyal ministers who fought bloody battles to retreat from the enemy. This violates the facts and hurts my loyalty."
The five crimes of Sin Ji Zhao spread throughout the country.
When Wei Zhongxian read aloud, his heart was almost bleeding, and he kept quietly looking at Emperor Tianqi. But when he saw his solemn and unwavering face, he knew that this determination was unshakable.
Your Majesty, this is not your fault. It was all caused by the Donglin Party who broke into the palace and court and made random attacks. We must make them look good in the future.
Sun Chengzong also looked quite heavy. He was familiar with this student and always thought he was smarter and preferred to focus on one thing all the time. However, he was not able to maintain patience and enthusiasm for complex and ever-changing government affairs.
Now it is gratifying to see that he can do such a thing while focusing on government affairs.
After Tianqi finished speaking, the ministers stated that they were also guilty and asked for a lower punishment.
However, Wei Zhongxian announced on behalf of Tianqi that this time he would give a lighter punishment to everyone, but he would show his sincerity and not be stingy with rewards for those who sacrificed their lives and those who performed meritorious services.
