One letter, two letters, three or four letters, five letters, six letters, seven or eight letters, nine letters, ten letters, countless letters flew into the Xiyuan and piled up.
There were many memorials to impeach Zhu Pingan, but Xu Jie, the second assistant in the cabinet, did not protect his student Zhu Pingan at all, and did not use his power to block these memorials. Instead, he was happy to see the results and provided various conveniences.
, these impeachment memorials quickly piled up on several cases before Emperor Jiajing.
Xu Jie's knowledge and interests were highly praised and affirmed by the Yan Dang group in Wuyi Palace.
At first, the Yan Party members in Wuyi Palace were a little worried. Because today Yan Ge was ill and was recuperating at home. Xu Jie, who was in charge of the cabinet, and Xu Jie was Zhu Ping'an's advisor, were worried that Xu Jie would protect them.
Student Zhu Ping'an. I didn't expect Xu Jie to be so sensible and completely swayed towards me.
Yes, yes, as everyone said, Mr. Yan Ge has completely tamed Xu Jie.
Also, since Xu Jie entered the cabinet, he has been walking on thin ice for more than a year. He has not dared to stand up and sit with Mr. Yan Ge. In almost all matters, no matter how big or small, he follows Mr. Yan Ge's lead and only dares to "shoulder to shoulder" with Mr. Yan Ge.
", and did not dare to "junli". He also told people many times: Without the guidance and guidance of the elders of Yan Pavilion, there would be no Xu Jie today.
Xu Jie is one of our own, but I am too worried.
Due to Xu Jie's connivance, memorials to impeach Zhu Pingan soon piled up on several cases before Emperor Jiajing.
After Emperor Jiajing finished his daily routine of meditation, he took a freshly baked elixir with the morning dew and began to read through the memorials piled on several cases. One hand was focused on cultivating to become an immortal, the other was grasping the power of the government, and the other was grasping the power of the government.
Everyone must grasp it, and both hands must be strong. This is the principle that Emperor Jiajing has always adhered to.
The Holy Judgment is arbitrary and has great power. And power, once it is attached to it, is like being held for a long time.
In fact, it is not so much that Emperor Jiajing was addicted to cultivating immortals and could not extricate himself, it is better to say that Emperor Jiajing was addicted to power and could not extricate himself.
The purpose of Emperor Jiajing's cultivation of immortality was to achieve immortality and sit on the dragon chair under his buttocks.
"Huh? There are many more memorials today than in the past few days, but what big thing happened to the government and the public?"
Emperor Jiajing saw that there were many more memorials on several cases than before, and he couldn't help but frowned. There had been a flood in the south of the Yangtze River a few days ago. Is there any bad news down there? Why is it so difficult for me?
"Go back to Your Majesty. With great blessing from Your Majesty, everything in the government and the public, and in every place, is going well these days."
Huang Jin, who was serving at the side, bowed forward with a wink, lowered his head, and replied respectfully.
Huang Jin is not only the chief seal of the ceremonial supervisor, but also the eunuch of the Dongchang. Dongchang is the supervisory agency, secret service agency and secret police agency of the Ming Dynasty. It is equivalent to the emperor's guard dog. It is responsible for monitoring the government and the public, and looking after the emperor's house.
.
"Everything is well? Why are there so many memorials?" Emperor Jiajing shook his head and said expressionlessly.
"Go back to your Majesty, I know something. These memorials may be to impeach Mr. Xiao Zhu." Huang Jin lowered his head and replied.
"Zhu Ping'an?" Emperor Jiajing was slightly surprised.
"Your Majesty is wise." Huang Jin lowered his head and complimented.
"This is strange. In the past, it was Mr. Zhu who impeached others. I heard that someone also gave Mr. Zhu the nickname of 'The First God of the Ming Dynasty'. How come he is being impeached today?"
Emperor Jiajing was very impressed by Zhu Pingan. Hearing that it was a memorial to impeach Zhu Pingan, he couldn't help but be very interested.
In the past, it was Zhu Pingan who impeached others. Why is he being impeached today, and by so many people? Not long ago, Zhu Pingan made great contributions to the fight against Japan, and he will be rewarded based on his merits?!
How many days have passed before he was impeached by so many people?
This made Emperor Jiajing very interested.
As Emperor Jiajing spoke, he read the memorials. The first memorial was requested by Xu Zonglu to be promoted to the official position. Xu Zonglu cared for Liaodong, and the people of Liao relied on him. He had always made great achievements, but he was impeached some time ago. Now he is suffering from old age.
When he was sick, he requested that he serve as an official and recuperate. Emperor Jiajing paused for a moment and approved the request with the word "approved".
When Emperor Jiajing was reading the memorials, Huang Jin stood aside respectfully, as quiet as a statue.
After Emperor Jiajing finished approving the first memorial, he opened the second memorial. Sure enough, this one was the memorial to impeach Zhu Pingan. It was the first impeachment memorial jointly signed by Liu Wannian and the magistrate of Taiping County.
Emperor Jiajing looked through it with great interest, wanting to see what outrageous things Zhu Pingan had done that provoked so many people to impeach him.
"What? During the flood, Zhu Ping'an raised grain prices regardless of the lives of the people and accepted a bribe of 80,000 yuan from grain merchants?"
The content of this memorial was very sharp, conclusive and well-founded. Emperor Jiajing could not help but frown after reading it.
Turning to the back of the memorial, Emperor Jiajing also saw the original document of Jingnan's official document defining grain prices attached to the back of the memorial.
This is very convincing.
After reading it, Emperor Jiajing put the memorial aside with an expressionless face and flipped through the next memorial. Sure enough, it was another memorial to impeach Zhu Pingan. The content was similar to the previous impeachment memorial. It was all about impeaching Zhu Pingan.
During the flood, he colluded with grain merchants, raised grain prices, and accepted huge bribes.
Another letter, a memorial to impeach Zhu Ping'an.
The content of this letter is different. This impeachment memorial takes character as the starting point. It impeaches Zhu Pingan for his moral decline, disrespect for superior officials, and no love for the people. It describes Zhu Pingan as a villain with no character.
Next, I read several memorials to impeach Zhu Pingan one after another. Generally speaking, they started with Zhu Pingan colluding with grain merchants and driving up grain prices. However, there were also several impeachment letters that impeached Zhu Pingan from other angles, such as Zhu Pingan's impeachment in the capital.
He opened a restaurant called "Zhuji Fast Food", which openly used dirty pig waste as raw material and cooked it into meat, harming the people and competing with them for profit.
"Huang Ban, what do you think?" Emperor Jiajing asked Huang Jin calmly after reading the memorial.
"Going back to the Holy Spirit, Mr. Xiao Zhu is far away in Jingnan. There is no investigation into his actions, but I dare not lie. However, I do know about the affairs in the capital. This 'Zhuji Fast Food' opened by Mr. Xiao Zhu
The restaurant was opened by Mr. Xiao Zhu after he inspected Taicang and borrowed his wife’s dowry to pay the fine in Taicang. The restaurant specializes in stewed pig meat. Price ◇00
Kanshu.com ◆The price is cheap, the taste is good, there are many laborers around, and the common people support it, the business is very prosperous. The old slave has this experience and tasted it once. Three dishes of two meat and one vegetable only cost ten yuan, and the taste is really good.
.”
Huang Jin bowed and replied.
"Oh? There is also such a thing. If Huang Ban can say that the taste is really good, I am also interested."
Emperor Jiajing seemed to be interested.
"Going back to your Majesty, Zhu Ji's meat dishes are all made from water, and some of them can't be served on the table," Huang Jin advised tactfully.
"Then forget it."
Emperor Jiajing just said that as a noble person, how could he eat pigs in the water that are not on the table?
"Huang Ban, in consultation with the cabinet, send someone to Jingnan to check what Zhu Xiaozi has done and deal with it when you come back. Well, you can also send two people from Dongchang to follow and go together.
"
Finally, Emperor Jiajing gave instructions calmly.
