In front of Fengtian Gate, it suddenly became quiet.
A seventh-grade Ministry of Industry was impeached, and during the Fengtianmen Great Court Meeting, in front of the emperor, the prince, and the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty, he impeached several important ministers, feudal officials, and countless local officials.
.
Some people started to turn their heads back.
I wonder if Ji Kai prepared a coffin outside the palace in advance.
Out of curiosity, people began to wait for the Ministry of Industry to give reasons for impeachment.
Ren Hengtai's eyes had already turned cold when Ji Kai spoke out countless impeachments.
He didn't know about this.
As the chief minister, he didn't know that this audacious Du Gezhong dared to impeach so many important officials in the court today.
Ren Hengtai snorted coldly: "Ji Kai! Do you want to cause trouble in the court? Although Liu Ke Yan Dao has the power to regulate, admonish and inspect, it is only limited to the affairs of the department. You have impeached four important ministers of the country and countless officials of the court. What do you want?
Why! Are you going to start a wave of impeachment in front of His Majesty!"
The functions and powers of the six subjects are divided in detail in the Ming Dynasty Huidian.
Responsible for serving as attendants, regulating and admonishing, repairing problems, collecting relics, assisting the emperor in handling military and political memorials, and supervising the affairs of the six ministries. He has the power of scientific copying, scientific reference, and cancellation.
Among them, the right to cancel refers to the imperial edicts and memorials being submitted to the official records every day, and sent to the cabinet for filing every five days. The yamen will be ordered to handle relevant matters within the prescribed time limit, and the six departments will check the progress and conduct five
Responsibilities that are fulfilled day by day.
From the above point of view, today's six departments are more like a branch under the cabinet, and each department is affiliated with Shizhong, which only has authority over the affairs of the department.
Ren Hengtai is the chief minister of the cabinet, and Ji Kai is the minister of the Ministry of Industry. But he, the chief minister, does not know that Ji Kai will impeach the governor of Hedao, the governor of Hedao, and the official of the third division of Henan Province today.
and a group of local officials responsible for river management.
Ji Kai slapped his old face hard.
Even Ren Hengtai, the first chief minister of the empire, has always been known for his easy-going and generous nature.
But at this moment, the chief assistant was also angry.
However.
Jiang Yi, the censor of Zuodu of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, who was the first to raise the issue today, is out of office again.
Jiang Yi folded his hands and cupped them towards Ren Hengtai.
Then he spoke softly: "Renge, although the court and the central government have already agreed that the censor's official can't make false accusations, and there must be conclusive evidence before impeachment. But today, Jidu only mentioned the person to be impeached.
The reason for the impeachment has not yet been explained. Why did Ren Ge react like this? This official is not questioning Ren Ge. However, Ren Ge's behavior will make people with intentions think that Ren Ge is blocking the way of speech in front of His Majesty. It is disloyal to His Majesty.
? Or does Yu Renge have different intentions?"
Ren Hengtai looked at Jiang Yi who was talking eloquently, his face became more and more gloomy, and finally his eyes shrank, and the corners of his eyes kept beating.
These people actually started to criticize themselves!
Ren Hengtai could not have imagined that today's court meeting would be directed at him.
Just when he was angry and about to open his mouth to scold him.
Zhu Gaochi, who had never returned to the train, coughed heavily, and then showed an apologetic and embarrassed smile under the displeased eyes of people.
When people thought he was going to go back.
Zhu Gaochi took a few steps forward. Under Ji Kai's hesitant gaze and Jiang Yi's puzzled gaze, he folded his hands and cupped his hands towards Ren Hengtai.
Then Zhu Gaochi moved to one side, exposing himself to the old man and uncle.
Zhu Gaochi looked at Ji Kai from the Ministry of Works indifferently and said: "Ke Dao has the power of inspection and impeachment. This is the imperial system. However, don't imitate the Song Dynasty people and impeach officials in the court, no matter how big or small.
We still have to have conclusive evidence. This dynasty is not like the former Song Dynasty, and there is no party dispute. Kedao has the power to inspect and impeach, but if the person impeached is not guilty, does Kedao make a mistake?"
If officials in the DPRK make mistakes, that is not called a mistake, that is called a crime.
If you are guilty, you will naturally be punished by state law.
Jiang Yi frowned. He looked at this royal family member who had made frequent noises today, with countless doubts in his heart.
If you talk about the position of the tax bureau chief, you can also speak at the court meeting.
And if the identity of a clan member is added to this, everyone needs to treat it with caution.
After Zhu Gaochi interrupted, Ren Hengtai felt less angry in his heart, but his eyes were still coldly staring at Ji Kai, who was in trouble with the Ministry of Works.
If this guy can't explain why, he will definitely use his authority as the chief minister of the empire to exclude this guy from the ranks of imperial officials.
Under the Fengtian Gate, Zhu Yuanzhang was leaning on a chair.
The emperor's eyes calmly watched everything happening in front of him.
From the very beginning to now, we have actually been preparing for this moment.
The court was fair, with clear rewards and punishments.
This is what we do.
Ji Kai avoided Ren Hengtai's scrutinizing gaze, shook his robes, turned around and bowed to the emperor and prince of Fengtian Sect.
"There is evidence for all the people I impeach, and they are all crimes that cannot be tolerated by the country!"
"I impeach Pan Deshan, the governor-general of the river. He has the emperor's mandate and the emperor's favor, but he does not think about regulating the river, causing accidents on the river and countless deaths and injuries. This is a crime."
"I am impeaching an official in the governor's office of the river. He is in charge of the affairs of the peace and tranquility of the river. He is in vain for the emperor's orders. The official's administration is biased and he does not know how to correct his mistakes. He does not know how to report to the court. This is the second crime."
"I impeach Pei Benzhi, the chief envoy of Henan Province. He was promoted from a county magistrate to a magistrate during the year. He was ordered to assist in river management affairs, but he sat back and watched an accident occur on the river. He committed dereliction of duty and neglected to observe. This is three crimes.
"
"I impeach Gao Guang, the Inspector-General of Henan Province. Since he took office as the Inspector-General of Henan Province, he did not know how to inspect the affairs of the river. He had many cover-ups in the Governor's Office of the River. He allowed Pan Deshan, the Governor-General of the River, to do whatever he wanted, which eventually led to a catastrophe. This is
Four sins.”
"I impeached Yu Ma, the commander of the capital of Henan Province. The garrison of the capital of Henan Province has the responsibility of guarding the territory. The river collapsed, the river was blocked, and the people suffered heavy casualties. The capital of Henan Province had never had anyone stationed on the embankment beforehand, and there was no defense. These are the five
crime."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "The impeachment of the minister involves an official who regulates the river. The top and bottom are collaborating together, ignoring the emperor's order, acting wantonly, without the king's law, without the emperor. These are the six
crime."
"The imperial court allocates countless amounts of money and grain, consumes huge amounts of materials, and uses millions of river works. In one accident, the imperial court loses millions of money and grain, and treats state property as private property, regardless of the difficulties of the national treasury. This is the seven sins."
"The governor's office of the river and the government officials moved hundreds of thousands of people to both sides of the river to control the river, and acquired countless pieces of land for the purpose of regulating the river and building embankments. However, none of the embankments were built or concealed.
Or for personal gain, this is the eight sins."
At the court meeting, Ji Kai listed the eight major sins related to river affairs in one breath.
Almost everyone involved was assigned the position of causing trouble to the country.
However, what he said is indeed a fact that exists in itself.
It's just that sometimes no matter what the reason is, there can be another analysis from another angle.
Just like today's Ministry of Industry, Ji Kai is in trouble.
But after he enumerated the eight deadly sins of river control officials, he didn't stop.
Just a change of breath.
After a while, Ji Kai said worriedly: "It is a national policy to regulate the river, and it has been my dream for thousands of years to stabilize the river. Now that the imperial court has more income, your majesty is wise and the prince is virtuous, so he allocates money and food to regulate the river."
Officials who have been ordered should work hard to attack difficulties, live up to the emperor's orders, stabilize the Yellow River, and calm the people's hearts. This is the way to be loyal to the emperor and the humerus of the country.
Over the years since the establishment of the River Governor's Office, nothing has been done, accidents have continued, there are countless hidden places, and the top and bottom are in decay.
The river is not clear and the people are in confusion.
Your Majesty, this is a time of crisis for the country. Traitors and traitors are born, and the country is in danger. We should use heavy codes and clarify the punishments. The court should make rewards and punishments clear and fair.
If the officials who govern the river are allowed to go unpunished, how can the people of the world be convinced?
I request your Majesty to severely punish the guilty officials in order to correct the atmosphere in the court!"
Ji Kai's voice was very loud and filled with deep sadness.
In this empty Fengtianmen Square, in front and behind the Wulong Bridge, it is constantly echoing into everyone's ears.
Zhu Gaochi went from looking sideways to looking at him squarely.
Only then did he see clearly that Ji Kai had come prepared.
Zhu Gaochi searched the civil service train with his eyes, wondering who else would jump out after Ji Kai.
The idea just occurred to him.
On the other side of Wulong Bridge, there was another loud voice.
"My lord, all the officials and officials will support Wei Fan in this matter! Your Majesty, please investigate and punish us severely!"
"My lord, the Ministry of Household Affairs has all given second thoughts to this matter!"
"My ministers, all the officials and officials have seconded their opinions... on this matter!"
"My lord... second the motion!"
More and more officials came to the south of Neiwulong Bridge and loudly seconded the proposal.
The sound of footsteps kept ringing, reaching Fengtianmen.
This is the sound of those officials who seconded the motion walking out of the train and kneeling in the distance to second the impeachment.
Soon, the trend of supporting impeachment spread to the north of Neiwulong Bridge and in front of Fengtian Gate.
"My lord, I second the proposal!"
"My lord, I second the proposal!"
Finally, Yu Xin, the Minister of Household Affairs, and Wang Jun, the Minister of Industry, stood up slowly under everyone's gaze.
"Do they really never remember to fight?"
In front of the military commander's column, Tang Li put his hands in his sleeves and wrapped the wat board, and pouted rather boredly at the civil servants who were out of class to second their opinions.
Chang Sen, who was beside him, sneered: "The things that Ji Kai impeached are all visible things, but no one can tell clearly what the matter is. He is telling the truth, so this group of talents They will all jump out one after another."
"For the New Deal?"
Tang Li narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at Yu Xin and Wang Jun who were already waiting for the imperial decree to arrive and were about to go to that damn place in Yingzhou to take up their posts.
Even so, the two of them clearly supported Ji Kai's impeachment.
Chang Sen nodded and said quietly: "The New Deal has blocked the way for many people, so all the roads have gone to the court."
"Your Majesty is probably going to use the knife." Tang Li had a look of expectation on his face.
Chang Sen shook his head: "It's not time for His Majesty to take action. Didn't you see that Prince Yan has come forward today? I'm afraid Prince Yan will step forward to suppress this matter."
Tang Li's face naturally showed a hint of doubt: "Prince Yan..."
Chang Sen turned his head to look at Tang Li and smiled: "Don't worry, Prince Yan and His Highness have a deep friendship. Why didn't His Highness bring Prince Yan with him during his northern tour this time as usual? Looking at it now, it was probably just to keep Prince Yan in the capital. In order to prepare him for something like this that might happen now."
Tang Li closed his mouth and thought for a while, and couldn't help but look at another clan member of the Fengtian sect who always held his head high and held his chest high, and went directly to the military guards to do Qianhu official affairs.
Suddenly, a bold idea came to Tang Li's mind.
But he was soon driven away.
And just then.
Sure enough, as Chang Sen said, Zhu Gaochi in the audience actually sneered a few times in public.
"Why are you laughing?"
Ji Kai possesses all the characteristics of an official who comes from a scientific background.
Arrogant, arrogant, and arrogant.
Zhu Gaochi sneered again and looked at Ji Kai. Under the gaze of all the officials around him, he actually asked lightly: "Can't I laugh?"
cold.
The atmosphere in front of Fengtian Gate suddenly turned cold.
Then, there was a burst of laughter in the general train.
"Ha ha ha ha!"
"There is no rule in the Ming Dynasty law that everyone cannot laugh!"
Ji Kai's face was ashen. He felt that he had been humiliated and publicly humiliated in front of His Majesty.
He waved his robe heavily and stared at Zhu Gaochi with a cold face: "If Prince Yan doesn't tell you the truth today, I will definitely go to the clan's mansion to explain to you in front of Your Majesty, the Crown Prince!"
This person is really vicious.
After Ji Kai said one sentence, many people had a better understanding of him.
Jie Jin shook his head and silently lowered his eyelids.
Zou Xueyu, the magistrate of Yingtian, who was wearing a third-grade red robe, walked out of the class train, looked at Ji Kai with cold eyes, and said in a deep voice: "Jidu is in trouble, your majesty and the prince are here in front of Fengtian Gate. No matter what the situation is, , I’m afraid it’s not something that your engineering department can comment on.”
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Zhu Gaochi immediately turned around and raised his eyebrows at Zou Xueyu.
It's not in vain that I tried so hard to protect you, Zou Zhifu.
Then, Zhu Gaochi turned back to look at Ji Kai, with some mockery in his eyes.
This prince has not committed any crime, and he is not from your Ministry of Industry. How can you, an official from the engineering department, control this prince?
Ji Kai was so angry that his internal organs ached, but there was nothing he could do.
Zhu Gaochi was very busy at this time.
He even shook his arms and adjusted his official robe in front of Ji Kai.
Then, he took a few steps forward again.
At this time, Zhu Gaochi was already at Ji Kai's side.
He just glanced at Ji Kai lightly, and then immediately looked at Yu Xin, Wang Jun, and the officials who seconded the proposal in front of Fengtian Gate.
Zhu Gaochi sneered again.
"You are really a god in this matter. Ju Yingtian can actually know what so many people thousands of miles away are doing every day."
"The Internet can actually inflict eight deadly sins on these people."
"Why did the governor-general of the river derelict in his duties? Why did the officials of the governor-general of the river derelict in their duties? Why did the officials of the third department of Henan Province, including officials related to river affairs, collude with each other? How could the money and food of the court, the people on both sides of the strait, and the land be occupied by corruption? "
Zhu Gaochi kept asking questions, and moved towards Ji Kai step by step.
When there were only a few steps left between the two, Zhu Gaochi stopped.
He sneered again.
"Ji Shi Zhong Hao Sheng couldn't produce any conclusive evidence that the river management officials were derelict in their duties, but I was able to produce evidence of their diligent work. Each piece of evidence could be provided to Shi Zhong Haosheng for a few days, which can be considered as evidence." Help me mend the faults and pick up the missing items!"
Zhu Gaochi's face was full of sarcasm when he talked about the final repairs and relics, which were the duties of the Liu Keyan official.
Ji Kai was a little uneasy by Zhu Gaochi's actions. He hesitated and whispered: "You... what evidence do you have...?"
Zhu Gaochi's eyes stood up, he turned around and bowed to the old man and uncle from Fengtian Sect.
