"boom!"
A blue and white porcelain pen holder fell to pieces. Zuo Dan quickly took three steps back and stood still, not daring to express his anger.【】
Xia Xun rarely gets angry, but once he gets angry, he is frightening. Zuo Dan was transferred to him relatively late. From the time he came into contact with Xia Xun, he always felt that Xia Xun had a gentle temperament and was a good talker. Until this time, Xia Xun
He was filled with murderous intent, making people feel chills when he saw it, and he suddenly remembered that he, the boss of Metal Gear Solid, would kill people without blinking an eye once he got angry.
When Feilong first entered Jinling, many secret spies were confused by the bustling environment of Jinling and began to violate prohibitions and break rules. Boss Xia showed no mercy and ordered Qianlong to kill many of his own people. From then on, Xia Xun never
He was so fierce in both voice and appearance that everyone forgot that he not only held the power of life and death, but also had extremely murderous intent. If he didn't kill, it wouldn't be because he was soft-hearted, it was just that the time had not come yet.
"Xiangshan County was massacred by Japanese pirates. The county magistrate, county captain, and county magistrate all died in the battle, and more than ten or two people in the city were in such a tragic situation. If it weren't for Dengzhou Laizhou in Shandong, Fuzhou in Fujian, and Xiamen were also looted one after another,
There’s nothing we can do to cover it up anymore, they still have to keep this matter in the dark!”
Xia Xun said angrily: "It is shameful for a soldier to lose a battle! If you lose a battle and do not dare to admit defeat for the sake of your own selfish desires, and do everything you can to pretend it is shameful! How many disabled people, how many orphans, and how many houses have been destroyed in Xiangshan and even in the villages and towns along the coast?"
Burning all the homeless people, they died because they concealed the information and could not get resettlement, relief and treatment! These people did not die at the hands of the Japanese pirates, but were blocked there by the people who were supposed to protect them, and slowly froze.
He died of hunger and deserves to be killed!"
Xia Xun raised his eyes, with a murderous look between his brows: "Call Xu Jiang, Dongfang Liang, Yue Junhong, and Dai Yubin to put down everything at hand and do their best to adjust this matter. Check it out for me and make it clear!"
"I humbly obey my command!"
Xia Xun waved his hand, and Zuo Dan quickly withdrew, stood outside the door, let out a long breath, and felt that cold sweat had soaked his back, and then left with lingering fear.
Xia Xun paced back and forth in the room, thinking for a long time, and then said: "Here comes someone!"
When the family came in, Xia Xun ordered: "Go to Ambassador Huang Zhen immediately and ask him to come!"
"Yes, sir!"
The servant didn't know what happened. He only knew that his master was furious, and after leaving the study, he spread his legs and ran away.
The next day is New Year's Day, the first year of Yongle.
A celebration was held in Jinling City. Emperor Yongle hosted a banquet in the Huagai Hall for the kings and relatives of the emperor who went to Beijing for pilgrimage, and then worshiped heaven and earth in the southern suburbs. After returning, the ministers held a ceremony to celebrate.
On this day, everything was done to celebrate the New Year. It was a foregone conclusion that the Japanese invasion along the coast would become more chaotic, and the people who suffered the disaster had already suffered. Therefore, although Xia Xun was anxious, he had to endure it. He could not entertain his brothers and sisters at the emperor's banquet.
Sometimes he would crash into his family banquet, or rush to the altar when the emperor was worshiping the ghosts and gods of heaven and earth to tell him that the Japanese had bloodbathed Xiangshan County. He could only patiently accompany the emperor to celebrate and then return home.
The next day, the workaholic Zhu Di, who had a fatherly style, was not idle. He summoned officials above the fifth rank in Beijing to formally announce the personnel adjustments.
Since Peiping has been changed to Beijing, there must be corresponding government offices and personnel. Since then, the Beijing Rear Army Command, Beijing Branch, and Beijing Imperial College have been set up in Beijing. The Peking Prefecture was changed to Shuntian Prefecture, and the Taipu Temple in Peking was renamed Beijing Xingxing.
Taipu Temple. The governor's office has left and right governors, the governors are both magistrates, and ministers. The executive department has two ministers, four ministers, six Cao officials, Hu Libing Xing Gong Lang, Yuan Wai Lang, and one person in charge.
Zhu Di appointed Guo Zi, the former Shangshu of the Ministry of Hubu, and Luo Qian, the Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishments, as the Shangshu of the Xingbu in Beijing. He appointed Jian Yi as the Shangshu of the Libu of Nanjing, Zhao Zhigang as the Shangshu of the Rites, Xia Yuanji as the Shangshu of the Hubu, Zheng Ci as the Shangshu of the Punishment, and Huang Fu as the Gongbu Shangshu.
The Ministry of Finance, Chen Ying, was appointed as the Imperial Envoy to Zuodu of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and the six ministries and seven ministers were greatly adjusted. Only the Ministry of War was temporarily vacant.
The Minister of War was Ru Chang. After Zhu Di came to the throne, he treated him favorably. He appointed his son Ru Jian as a doctor, and betrothed Princess Chang'an, the second daughter of the King of Qin, to Ru Jian as his wife. He trusted Ru Chang very much, and he sat here.
The position of Minister of the Ministry of War was absolutely secure. However, on the first day when the emperor was about to issue an order to appoint and remove officials, Ru Chang suddenly proposed to the emperor that he, the current loyal uncle, had a noble title and was not suitable for holding a permanent position anymore, so he resigned as Minister of the Ministry of War.
job.
Zhu Di was very pleased that Ru Chang knew how to advance and retreat and was not greedy, so he issued an order to remove Ru Chang from the post of Minister of the Ministry of War. The Minister of the Ministry of War was temporarily vacant, and the left and right ministers were in charge of the affairs of the army. He still consulted Ru Chang for advice on difficult matters. In fact, he
He does not receive the seal of the minister, but still holds the power of the Ministry of War.
When Xia Xun heard the news, he was very suspicious that Ru Chang, a cunning old guy, had heard something, so he was so upright and honest that he resigned as Minister of War.
After announcing the personnel appointments, Zhu Di happily asked Mu En to read out his "New Year's Speech". Of course, this imperial edict was polished by Xie Jin, otherwise Zhu Di himself always spoke in a colloquial manner and never carefully considered every word.
For these solemn occasions, it is somewhat inappropriate.
Mu En read aloud: "The virtues of God are to live well and to be great. The king of man follows the law of Heaven and loves people first. The world is so vast that no one person can rule it alone. He must choose the virtuous and capable and work with each other to rule. Yao, Shun, and Yu
, Tang, , Wu Zhi is the king. Throughout the ages, if you use this way, you will be in order, if you don't use it, it will be chaos. My great ancestor, Emperor Gao, was ordered by the sky to take care of me diligently. I have lived and breathed for more than thirty years. There has been no harm in the world, no troubles, no political and religious affairs.
There is no comparison between modern times and ancient times. It is also about appointing the wise men of the world to manage the affairs of the world, protect the people and achieve governance, so as to defeat the state.
It is difficult for me to inherit the throne. I attach great importance to the fact that the emperor of the world will test the world, and the emperor of the army and the people will test the innocent. Since I came to the throne, I have been sleeping all day and night, thinking about appeasing peace, so as to fulfill the great responsibility entrusted to me. All the ministers of military affairs have cherished my feelings and done their best.
Do not be lazy or neglectful, do not abuse or be greedy, do nothing to restrain, do not indulge in deceit, maintain integrity, be upright, encourage people to be diligent, expand loyalty and forgiveness, and abide by the Constitution together, and do not violate it. Only the people pay taxes to
Support the army, and the army fights to defend the people. The army will not eat if it is not the people, and the people will be uneasy if it is not the army. I hope that the army and the ministers will protect each other and do no harm. Only the emperor's examination and constitution will be a tool for peace and security in all ages. If you follow it, you will be lucky.
, disobeying it will lead to misfortune, but he is dedicated and single-minded, respectful and meticulous."
After the imperial edict was read out, Zhu Di said with a smile: "Okay, we are celebrating the New Year today. I know that you are all busy welcoming us and inviting us to eat and treat you. Today is a big court meeting. Now that these things have been said, everyone can go back and celebrate the New Year in peace.
Yes. Of course, if there is something important, you can still report it. Today, all ministries, departments and yamen have anything important to report?"
Zhu Di looked at it with a smile, and all the military officials in the court laughed and replied: "I have nothing to report today. Your Majesty has been working hard all day and night, and it is time for you to rest and recuperate for two days."
In normal times, ministers would not be able to talk to the emperor like this, but during the Chinese New Year, even in the Jinluan Palace, one must not be impersonal, so everyone spoke more casually.
Zhu Di laughed and said: "In that case, dear friends..."
Xia Xun was the Duke of the country and was standing at the head of the Xunqi class. At this time, he turned his head and glanced at Huang Zhen.
Huang Zhen stood in the official class, struggling with his heart. If the people in the Metropolitan Procuratorate wanted to get ahead, the only way out was to punish people. Chen Ying relied on punishing people, and everyone looked at him, and he was famous. But he also had to punish people.
It takes courage. Huang Zhen has been on the bench all his life. He wants to stand out, and his heart is burning with the thought, but today's situation is special.
He believed the news given to him by Duke Fu was true. With his current status, Duke Fu could not do anything based on rumors. Besides, Huang Zhen was the imperial envoy. It was the imperial envoy's prerogative to report rumors. Even if he
Even if the impeachment is wrong, he will not be held accountable. He is not afraid. The problem is that today is a special day. At this time, he will impeach the Ministry of War and the Fifth Army Governor's Office, which will make the limelight big.
So Huang Zhen stood in front of the ministers, with a memorial in his sleeves and he was sweating. He still didn't have the courage to step out. He was used to disappearing from everyone's sight. It really took courage to stand up and be the center of attention.
ah.
At this time, Xia Xun turned around and glanced at him coldly. This glance made Huang Zhen smartly shiver.
"Wealth and honor are at risk! Wealth and honor are at risk! Lao Huang, I have been frustrated all my life. Today... I will give it a go!"
Huang Zhen felt a surge of blood rushing to the top of his head, making his scalp numb. He bit his teeth and shouted loudly: "I have my own book!" After that, he rushed out.
Under the excitement, Huang Yushi's voice changed, and the sound sounded like the screams of a woman who was in bed. He rushed out two steps, his feet softened, and he knelt down with a "pop" sound.
He shakily took out the memorial from his sleeves, raised his hands high above his head, and did not dare to raise his head. He only shouted loudly: "I have the original memorial!"
After saying this, he almost burst into tears.
After being a Beijing official for so many years, this was the first sentence he said in the Jinluan Palace!
Xia Xun secretly breathed a sigh of relief. If Huang Zhen didn't dare to step forward today, he would have completely given up on this waste and trained another spokesperson in the Metropolitan Procuratorate. Fortunately, at the critical moment, he finally stood up. Human courage,
Sometimes external stimulation is needed. After this time, the timid and timid Huang Yushi, not to mention a rebirth, should be more courageous than before.
The military officers and ministers all came to Huang Zhen. They were surprised at this little man who had always been a decoration in the Golden Palace and had never been noticed by anyone. They all thought in unison: "This old guy... must have taken the wrong medicine."
?”
Zhu Di frowned. This official ran out from the end of the official class. He was still a long way away from the throne. Since he didn't explain on the spot what the music was, could it be that it was a secret performance? But if it is a secret performance, you should give it to him.
Come to me.
Zhu Di took a closer look and found that the official did not dare to raise his head. He raised his hands high and his body was shaking like a sifter. He understood something in his heart and couldn't help but feel a little funny. He gestured to Mu En, and Mu En followed.
He went up and down the imperial steps and rushed to receive the memorial.
Huang Zhen did not explain on the spot what the memorial was about or who he was impeaching, because he was too nervous and scared. However, he did it by mistake and did the right thing. If on this good day of celebrating the New Year and celebrating the New Year together, especially
After Zhu Di had just made a remark that was flattering to his own face, he ran out to give the emperor a slap in the face. It turned out to be a good thing, and the emperor was also angry with him.
Mu En took the memorial and presented it to the emperor with both hands before returning to the imperial palace. Zhu Di took it and opened it, and his expression suddenly changed.
"Who are you? Where do you serve?" Zhu Di's voice carried a murderous tone, echoing in the silent Golden Palace.
"Your Majesty... Huang Zhen, Imperial Envoy of the Metropolitan Procuratorate." Huang Zhen has really become famous now.
Zhu Di slowly stood up, stuffed the memorial into his sleeve, and said coldly: "Imperial Ambassador Huang Zhen, as well as officials from the Ministry of War and the Governor's Mansion of the Fifth Army, are here to await your arrival! Retreat from the court!"
: New Year's Day in Guanguan is a day of coding. Please! Retreat from the imperial court!
