There is a saying that things should never be delayed, otherwise things will change.
Early the next morning, Fang Jun had breakfast early. It was almost dawn and the curfew had just been lifted. He quickly left Chongrenfang and went straight to the Yamen of the Ministry of War. When Mao hour arrived, all the officials came on duty and signed the certificate immediately.
Five transfer orders were sent to transfer Li Siwen, Qin Yingdao, Cheng Chubi, Qu Tuquan, and Zhang Daan to Youwuwei. Then officials from the Ministry of War rode fast horses and sent these official transfer orders to the army where these people were currently located.
.
In the yamen of the Ministry of War, Guo Fushan, who has never had a deep background, has always been a staunch supporter of Fang Jun. This is why Fang Jun can firmly control the Ministry of War even when he is away on an expedition. The ministers on the left and right are united as one, and even the minister is helpless, let alone the Ministry of War.
There is no minister at the moment?
Otherwise, ambitious people like Liu Shi and Cui Dunli would have caused Fang Jun so much trouble...
Guo Fushan carried a tea cup and strolled to Fang Jun to check in. He sat on the chair opposite Fang Jun, with a worried look on his face: "Erlang, I'm afraid this is a little inappropriate. I signed so many signatures at once."
The transfer orders are all Erlang's close friends. Once the Yushi Yanguan finds out, I'm afraid there will be a turmoil. In the past, even if you acted a little nonsense, His Majesty could protect you, but this time, the nature is different.
…”
It’s not stated clearly, it’s half-said, but the meaning is already obvious.
Military power has always been feared by the emperor. No matter how loyal and favored the minister is, he will not dare to take a step beyond the limit. Otherwise, once the emperor becomes suspicious, he will have no mercy to talk to. No matter how many meritorious deeds and holy family members he has, it will be in vain.
Lose your head in minutes...
No matter how many imperial censors impeached Fang Jun in the past, the reason why the emperor could remain unmoved and always supported him was because he was convinced that Fang Jun was loyal and capable. As long as these two points were confirmed, the rest would be
The little details don't matter.
However, it is hard to predict what the emperor would think of such a wanton placement of close friends.
Fang Jun threw away the brush in his hand, leaned back on the chair, and sighed: "Why don't you know the risks of doing this? However, these are all friends who grew up with a certain person since childhood, and they all have excellent abilities, but because of
The family refused to reuse them, so they had to leave them idle and wait to die. Now the Eastern Expedition is known to both the government and the public as the best opportunity to gain military exploits, and General Xue, the right-wing guard, is willing to take over. This is the left minister of the Ministry of War.
, for the sake of their own safety, can they refuse? You know, this is probably the biggest opportunity they can get in this life. Should they soar into the sky and make a name for themselves, or should they continue to eat and wait to die as a playboy?
In this move, even if I am severely punished by His Majesty, lose this official position, and lose this title, this matter is still inevitable, otherwise I will not be able to pass my own test."
Guo Fushan was stunned for a moment, and said with emotion: "It's because I'm a superficial official. It's probably because I've been in the officialdom for a long time. I only have the wise way to protect myself, but I forgot that a man must do something when he doesn't do something! Erlang would rather be punished by His Majesty himself."
Punishment should also be used to find a way out for the brothers, and loyalty should come first, just like Meng Chang in ancient times, who was inexplicably admired by the subordinates!"
These days, the weather is good, the country is peaceful and the people are safe, but the conspiracy and strife in the officialdom are getting more and more intense. It is normal for each family to clean up the snow before it. No matter classmates, friends, or even siblings, they will dig a hole and bury it anytime and anywhere, just for their own interests.
There are very few people like Fang Jun who are willing to risk their lives for the sake of the future of his brothers. How can he not be admired?
Fang Jun looked humble on his face, but he was complaining crazily in his heart...
Mother!
I was driven to death by those disasters. I was not angry at all beforehand. As soon as I saw Xue Wanche, my IQ exploded. I was forced into a corner. What else could I do?
It's not that he can't make sacrifices for his brothers, but he thinks it's not worth it at the moment.
Everyone thought that the Eastern Expedition to Goguryeo was a gluttonous feast to harvest military exploits, but he did not think so, because historically His Majesty Li Er's Eastern Expedition ended in failure. Even though many changes had occurred in this life, the Tang Army
It has stronger combat power and more abundant logistical equipment than ever before. Who knows how powerful the rolling wheel of history is? Can he, a small time traveler, change its course and move from failure to victory?
But before that, I might not be able to escape being punished by His Majesty Li Er. If it was just a slap in the face, I'm afraid that the emperor still had the idea of suppressing him, which would be terrible.
…
*****
As a result, whatever you are afraid of will come...
Just after noon, Fang Jun reviewed a lot of backlogged official documents and had lunch when he was approached by the palace servants.
"Your Majesty has an edict, and the prince's consort will enter the palace immediately... Haha, Mr. Wang said that even though he was living in the deep palace, he still sighed after hearing about Fang Erlang's righteous deeds and Bo Yuntian's righteous deeds to support his friends. I'm afraid it was the same as Meng Chang in ancient times.
But that’s it…”
This handsome little chamberlain had never been seen before, and he was probably recently transferred to serve the emperor. But as soon as he met him, Fang Jun felt reassured, and he also understood what the emperor's summons was about.
How could Wang De know about Fang Jun's transfer order in the palace?
Apparently someone came into the palace to tip off the information, and the censor was almost likely to impeach him, but it was obvious that the emperor was not angry at all...
He took out two exquisite silver locks from his purse and put them into the hands of the young chamberlain.
The young eunuch was stunned for a moment, then quickly accepted it, and said with lowered eyebrows and eyes: "No wonder Manager Wang always said that the prince-in-law is generous and never makes things difficult for us eunuchs. He doesn't treat us as human beings like others..."
Thank you for the gift from my consort!"
Since the Han Dynasty, "eunuch" has been a despicable term. This group of people mutilated themselves in order to make a living and entered the palace to serve the king. In the eyes of those gentlemen who are benevolent, righteous and moral, they are unfilial people, no different from pigs, dogs and livestock.
But as long as Te Niang has a chance to survive, who would be willing to cut off the roots of her descendants, not only being unable to enjoy the joy of men and women, but also not being able to be buried in the tombs of the ancestors after her death?
There are very few people like Fang Jun who have little discrimination against eunuchs. This is why Wang De always has a good impression of him and takes care of him a lot.
Immediately, Fang Jun didn't say much and hurried to Tai Chi Palace with the young chamberlain.
The guards in front of the palace gate obviously knew that Fang Jun had entered the palace under the imperial edict, so they hurriedly let him go. Fang Jun followed the young chamberlain to the Dragon Palace. The young chamberlain asked Fang Jun to wait at the door, and then he went inside to report. After a moment, he turned around and said:
"Your Majesty summons the Prince Consort to enter."
Fang Jun nodded slightly, straightened his appearance, and walked into the hall.
Although the snow has stopped in the past two days, the sky has not yet set and the clouds are low. I don't know when another blizzard will fall. Therefore, the light in the Dragon Palace is a bit dim and there are no candles lit. Fang Jun took a moment to adjust to the light.
Just now I saw clearly His Majesty Li Er sitting behind the desk with a gloomy face.
Wang De stood aside with his eyebrows lowered and his eyes lowered, not even looking at Fang Jun.
Fang Jun knew it well, so he did not feel frightened by His Majesty Li Er's face. However, he showed a look of sincerity and fear on his face. He stepped forward and saluted, saying: "I have received an imperial edict from you, your Majesty Fang Jun. I don't know what your Majesty's orders are.
?”
His Majesty Li Er looked gloomily and said slowly: "Don't you know what you did?"
Fang Jun said: "This humble minister is stupid, please give me a clear explanation from your majesty."
"Haha, you won't admit it, right?" His Majesty Li Er sneered, a little annoyed, pointed to a large pile of memorials on the table, turned to Wang De and said: "Show these to him!"
"Here!"
Wang Deqing responded, stepped forward, held a large pile of memorials, placed them on the ground in front of Fang Jun, and said, "Fang Jun, please take a look at them."
Then, step aside.
Fang Jun knelt down, picked up the top memorial, and opened it. Sure enough, he was impeached and issued a transfer order to transfer Li Siwen and others to Youwuwei. The memorial even used the words "ulterior motives and wolfish ambitions."
It seems that Fang Jun's hidden rebellious intentions have been completely exposed, and everyone who is rebellious and traitorous can be punished!
Where is this impeachment?
It's simply life-threatening...
When I looked at the signature, I saw Xu Jingzong from Zhongshushe...this old guy!
It’s basically unnecessary to read the ones below. They are all very similar. They all use his orders to make excuses. At the lighter end, they are seeking favoritism and bending the law to form cliques for personal gain. At the more serious end, they have ulterior motives.
His Majesty Li Er asked: "Have you seen it?"
"I've seen it." Fang Jun replied honestly.
His Majesty Li Er picked up the teacup and asked in a low tone: "How do you feel about the impeachment of hundreds of officials?"
Fang Jun thought for a while and said: "Xu Jingzong, a member of Zhongshushe, avenged his personal revenge. He is of low character and should be severely punished. This person impeached a minor official because he wanted to hinder the great cause of the empire's prosperity. In fact, he is a treacherous official and a traitor. Please punish him."
Of!"
"puff!"
His Majesty Li Er, who had just drank the tea, spat it out suddenly, choking and coughing, while staring at Fang Jun in disbelief.
Is this person still shameless?
When people impeach you, it’s just their intention
