After that, Zhao Yun ignored this matter and carefully reviewed other memorials. Especially for some memorials from the Jingxiang, Sichuan, and Sichuan areas, he instinctively cared about them very much.
Sichuan Zhizhi envoy Zheng Sun reported that the secret gathering of soldiers and generals to attack the Jin Kingdom was temporarily shelved. Now these soldiers have nothing to do every day and are worried about possible changes. He hopes that the imperial court will issue an order to withdraw all the troops and horses from the original route.
Prevent changes.
Zhao Yun frowned after reading it. What Zheng Sun said was not unreasonable, but if all the troops and horses were withdrawn to the headquarters, all the previous preparations would be in vain.
No, you can’t do things timidly.
Zhao Yun reviewed and said: "Read it."
After Zhao Yun gave the instructions, he did not deal with it. Zhao Yun chose to believe in the loyalty and faith of these soldiers and horses, and believed that nothing would happen to them.
This time was the first time Zhao Yun planned an action against the Kingdom of Jin. Even if there were difficulties, Zhao Yun could not give up easily. It was related to the strictness of the emperor's authority and his own reform plan. He must not make changes easily.
Putting down his pen, Zhao Yun stood up, walked out of the study, walked out of Funing Hall, and looked at the various pavilions in the palace.
The palace at night gave people an inexplicable sense of majesty and majesty, but only Zhao Yun knew that beneath this majesty was a heavy burden.
March 25, the first year of Hengsheng, the Imperial Palace, Chui Gong Hall.
Today is the day of the great court meeting, when the king comes to court and hundreds of officials pay homage to discuss state affairs.
Before the court meeting began, Chen Xianjun looked around anxiously, hoping to find Zheng Qingzhi.
But Zheng Qingzhi didn't come either left or right, and he was so anxious that he was sweating profusely.
Seeing Chen Guiyi again, Zhen Dexiu and others looked unkind to him. Chen Xianjun became even more panicked and wanted to escape from here quickly.
"Teacher, why aren't you here yet?"
The more Chen Xianjun waited, the more anxious he became, and he was looking forward to Zheng Qingzhi, but he did not know that Zheng Qingzhi was already ill in bed and submitted his resignation to Zhao Yun, but Zhao Yun did not approve it.
When the court meeting started and hundreds of officials entered the palace, Zheng Qingzhi still did not come. Chen Xianjun only felt that when he stepped into the Chui Gong Hall, he felt as if he had stepped into the gate of hell, and his whole body was chilled.
In the main hall, Zhao Yun was sitting on the dragon chair. He couldn't help but look at the Minister of Household Affairs Zhen Dexiu and Zongzheng Shaoqing Chen Guiyi. Seeing their solemn faces, it was obvious that they had not recovered from what happened yesterday.
Subconsciously, Zhao Yun looked at Chen Xianjun again and saw that his face was panicked and his eyes were looking left and right, as if he was still looking for something.
An imperceptible sneer appeared at the corner of Zhao Yun's mouth. It seemed like there was something good to watch today.
Sure enough, after the memorials from some officials were dealt with, Zhao Yun said: "Do you still have something to report to your family?"
After hearing this, Chen Guiyi looked at Zhen Dexiu, and Zhen Dexiu's eyes told him to speak first and she would come out later.
Chen Guiyi did not hesitate, took the first two steps, raised his hand to Zhao Yun and said: "Your Majesty, I am impeaching two people. First, I am impeaching Chen Xianjun, the governor of Lin'an Prefecture, for spending 100,000 to receive the Jin Dynasty envoy, wasting people's money and money, and forcing people's daughters.
To flatter the Kingdom of Jin is an insult to the character of the Song Dynasty. Secondly, impeach Prime Minister Zheng Qingzhi of the Left for recommending Chen Xianjun for negligence and neglect of state affairs. I hope that your Majesty will severely punish these two people to serve as a warning to others."
When Chen Xianjun heard Chen Guiyi's attack, he was so frightened that his face was as white as a sheet of paper, and he had no color at all.
Chen Guiyi raised the memorial in his hand, and Gao Shi walked down, took the memorial and handed it to Zhao Yun.
After Zhao Yun finished reading the memorial, he looked at Chen Xianjun and said, "Chen Qing family, how do you defend yourself against this impeachment memorial?"
Chen Xianjun walked out tremblingly, raised his hand and said: "Your Majesty, as an ambassador, it is my duty to entertain the Jin Dynasty envoys, and there is nothing wrong with it. Although the standards of hospitality are a bit high, I am also dedicated to serving you."
My country, I just want to share your worries for your majesty, and I would like to ask your majesty for your enlightenment."
At this time Zhen Dexiu stood up, raised his hand and said: "Your Majesty, I also want to impeach Chen Xianjun."
"Oh, the Zhenqing family also wanted to impeach him because of the reception of the mission?" Zhao Yun asked.
Zhen Dexiu said: "No, I impeached Chen Xianjun in public without His Majesty's will. He detained high-ranking officials without His Majesty's will. This is tantamount to conspiracy. I ask Your Majesty to convict you."
As soon as Zhen Dexiu said this, the whole court was in an uproar and all the officials were talking about it.
If the previous impeachment of Chen Guiyi might have only caused Chen Xianjun to lose his official position, then the impeachment of Zhen Dexiu might have cost Chen Xianjun his life, or even the life of his entire family!
Chen Xianjun couldn't stand upright on the spot. He fell to the ground and couldn't get up. His face was already pale and there was no blood.
Gao Shi transferred Zhen Dexiu's memorial to Zhao Yun. Zhao Yun looked at it carefully and was amazed in his heart. This Zhen Dexiu was really ruthless. His temper was not something ordinary people could afford to offend.
After reading the memorial, Zhao Yun looked at Chen Xianjun and said, "Chen Qing family, how do you defend yourself against the Zhenqing family's impeachment?"
Chen Xianjun was so frightened that he couldn't defend himself. He was trembling and opened his mouth for a long time, but he couldn't say a word.
At this time, Fan Chunian, the minister of the Ministry of Industry, who had been friends with Zheng Qingzhi for many years, stood up and said to Zhao Yun: "Your Majesty, Chen Fuyin received the Jin Dynasty envoy, and the treatment was indeed a bit high. Chen Shaoqing also treated the real minister a bit too much.
Yes, but to say that he is treasonous is not enough."
Chen Xianjun looked at Fan Chu with excitement, and was extremely moved that he spoke for him.
Chen Xianjun hurriedly got up, knelt on the ground, and cried to Zhao Yun: "Your Majesty, I am guilty, and I am willing to accept the punishment, but I will never dare to rebel. If I really have this intention, I will be cut into pieces and die."
There will be no peace in the future, and I ask Your Majesty to take warning."
Zhao Yun waved his hand and said, "I know about you."
After saying that, Zhao Yun looked at the officials and said: "Chen Xianjun abused the treasury and had bad moral conduct. He knelt down in front of the envoys of the Jin Kingdom and was out of character. Therefore, he will be removed from the position of Lin'an Prefecture Yin and all official positions, and he will be sent to Lingnan.
.”
"Your Majesty, my lord, my lord, my lord, thank you."
Chen Xianjun was surprised. He didn't expect that he would be dismissed from office just because of the reception of the envoy. If he had known that today, even if the Emperor of Jin came, he would have to go up and spit, let alone entertain him.
With a frustrated look on his face, Chen Xianjun was taken to the Chaohu by the Xiaohuangmen, and was detained by the imperial guards before leaving the Chui Gong Hall.
Chen Guiyi saw that Zhao Yun only punished Chen Xianjun but did not punish Zheng Qingzhi. He stood up and said: "Your Majesty, the Prime Minister of the Left Zheng Qingzhi did not know the person well and failed to recommend him. He should also be punished for this. Please give your Majesty a clear warning."
When the courtiers saw that Chen Guiyi was pursuing and beating Zheng Qingzhi fiercely, they couldn't help but look askance at him.
All the officials said in their hearts that Zheng Qingzhi was His Majesty's hero, and His Majesty showed great favor to him. Don't you know this? Even if Zhen Dexiu only impeached Chen Xianjun, you, Chen Guiyi, dare to pursue him.
