What kind of temperament does the little emperor Zhu You have? It can be said that no one can predict the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty. Those who are now officials in Daliang are really accompanying the emperor like a tiger. Even Chen Xingxiu and Wang Hongxi have such contact with the little emperor.
The two most senior officials could not figure out the emperor's temperament. If the emperor had a gentle temper, it would be considered gentle. After all, he talked eloquently.
He always had a smile on his face. Even though Chen Xingxiu refuted the emperor's words many times in the morning, the emperor was still tepid and never got angry. At first, it was only Chen Xingxiu who dared to refute the emperor. Gradually, more and more people refuted him.
, but the emperor was still not angry. Not only was he not angry, but he also looked very happy, so slowly he became very happy.
The civil and military ministers of the dynasty began to think that the young emperor might be a gentle person, but one incident completely changed his mind. An official once impeached the former prince's division in public when he went to court, and listed
There were four major crimes against Prince Shi Ming Yongshou, and the most egregious one was that Ming Yongshou once committed a crime with just one letter.
To transform a seventh-rank Taishi Bureau Chief into a high-ranking and powerful fourth-rank Huangmen Shilang, this situation is unprecedented in Daliang, so this official has a very aura. In fact, what makes the official most agitated is
It was not because this person inexplicably skipped three levels in a row, but because the recommendation letter from Ming Yongshou at that time had only a few words on it.
"This person can be the servant of Huangmen and should be reused."
Just eleven words, it turned out to be shorter than the emperor's edict, but the power seemed to be greater than that of the emperor, so this incident became the main case of this official impeaching Ming Yongshou. You must know the current Daliang
In the imperial court, Wang Hongxi is the leader in promoting generals. Whoever Wang Hongxi says to use will be used. However, for civil servants, Chen Xingxiu is the leader. It can be said that Chen Xing
Xiu holds the power of life and death for the civil servants of the Manchu Dynasty in Daliang. In fact, this civil servant also wants to tell the story of Ming Yongshou's son Ming Wenshi. After all, he is less than fifty years old and has taken the position of Minister of Zhongshu. This is
If there wasn't something fishy in it, who would believe it? But considering that speaking out about this matter would involve his immediate boss Chen Xingxiu, I didn't mention it.
After listening to the official spitting and impassionedly talking about the four major crimes of Ming Yongshou, all the civil and military officials in the dynasty had expressionless faces. Only Wang Hongxi and Chen Xingxiu shook their heads helplessly, although they didn't know what the emperor would do.
How to deal with this matter, but both of them know that one
An old man who has been chasing and beating the emperor since he was a child with a wooden ruler, and you, a small civil servant, can impeach him? You must know that although Ming Yongshou holds a high position, he can be said to hold the title of the first minister.
, but Mr. Ming never held an important position. Why? Why?
Just to avoid the disputes in the court, Ming Yongshou was still full of ideals and ambitions before he was forty years old. Unfortunately, this ambition was too sharp and stung the hearts of many people. After all, an untimely Ming Yongshou could not
will be important, because tact is the most critical thing in officialdom
West, but the late emperor knew that he needed people like Ming Yongshou around him, because only people like Ming Yongshou could make him see something clearly. Although the people in the court could not stand his sharpness, the late emperor needed to hear some real voices.
, no matter when the emperor needs one by his side
People who can tell the truth, if everyone tells lies, then the lies will become true, so even if Ming Yongshou cannot be reused, the late emperor still kept Ming Yongshou by his side and died casually
A false position, rather than being directly assigned to a local place and serving as a minor official in any place.
When Ming Yongshou, who was forty years old, knew that there was no chance of realizing his full ambition, he became depressed and began to learn to shut up. This shut-up lasted for ten years. When Ming Yongshou was fifty years old, Ming Yongshou opened his mouth again.
, this time he opened his mouth and directly scolded Chen Xingxiu, the first civil servant of the dynasty.
Blood sprayed on his head, but Chen Xingxiu never said a word in return. To this day, Chen Xingxiu feels that if Mr. Ming hadn't scolded him so hard that he might not be where he is today, nor would there be someone who is as comfortable as a fish in water in the officialdom.
Prime Minister Chen, Chen Xingxiu is a man of great wisdom
People, so they can accept these things, but Mr. Ming has scolded too many people, and not everyone can accept it. After all, as long as Mr. Ming appears in this morning, the civil and military officials of the whole dynasty will start to be in panic.
, they knew that someone might be scolded again today.
The person who impeached Ming Yongshou was because he had been insulted by Mr. Ming, so he blamed Mr. Ming for his failure to become a fourth-rank minister. The resentment in his heart for so many years was finally expressed today. In fact,
He knew that Mr. Ming had retired and returned to his hometown, so he didn't want the emperor to really punish him. All he wanted to do was to express the suffocation in his chest.
After listening to the minister's words of impeachment, the young emperor smiled slightly, then looked at the Minister of Secretariat calmly and asked: "Are you impeaching my teacher now, Mr. Ming Yongshou?"
My teacher.
These four words directly frightened the Minister of the Secretariat and made him sweat profusely. Not only the Minister of the Secretariat, but also all the civil and military officials in the dynasty were sweating for this man. My teacher, what on earth should this person do?
What kind of title is that? The emperor has eight teachers instead of ten. When he just studied "Book of Rites", the little emperor had three teachers. But the emperor can be called my teacher in this court.
It seems that there is only one person, Mr. Ming Yongshou Ming.
"The person I am impeaching is none other than Crown Prince Shi Ming Yongshou."
The minister, the minister, knelt on the ground and shouted. After all, the words he said were like spilled water. If he wanted to take it back at this time, he would definitely not be able to take it back, so he could only bite the bullet and continue.
"Is there any evidence for the four deadly sins you mentioned?" The emperor had a smile on his face.
"The first three items are not available, but the fourth item has been implemented." The minister, the minister, replied tremblingly.
"Okay." Emperor Zhu You nodded slightly, then looked at Chen Xingxiu and asked, "Is the Huangmen servant he talked about now under your sect."
Chen Xingxiu took a step forward, and then replied respectfully: "This man's original name is Peng Chengbi, and he is under the sect of the minister."
"Have you made any mistakes in being Huangmen's servant all these years?" Emperor Zhu You asked again.
"With merits and demerits, Prince Shi Ming Yongshou has a sharp eye and a discerning mind. He is a talented person."
After hearing this, the Minister of Secretariat who was kneeling on the ground suddenly raised his head and looked at his boss Chen Xingxiu. He never expected that his boss would actually help Ming Yongshou speak at this time. After all, if he pressed the beam
Judging from the system, I can barely be considered as one of his disciples, Chen Xingxiu. Could it be that Chen Xingxiu still has to turn his elbows outward at this time, thinking about Ming Yongshou who has retired and returned to his hometown for many years? This is unreasonable.
"Then you can explain to the minister, the minister, what exactly happened when the teacher promoted this Peng Chengbi." Emperor Zhu You continued.
Chen Xingxiu glanced helplessly at the Minister of Finance, and then said in a low voice: "Actually, Mr. Ming doesn't know this Peng Chengbi. He just met him by chance during a private visit when he was still humble. He feels that this person is a pillar of talent.
but for
To avoid suspicion, I did not promote this person personally. Instead, I approached Mr. Ming and wanted him to help write a letter of recommendation. But who would have thought that Mr. Ming scolded me so much that I later stayed at Mr. Ming’s house for the whole time?
After three days of admonishment and three days of persuasion, Ming Lao
The master just wrote those eleven words at random. His purpose was to tell me that he didn't know this person well, so he couldn't write anything more. But now that I, Chen Xingxiu, asked him, he helped me.
This is so busy, and afterwards I, Chen Xingxiu, was like Mr. Ming
I guarantee that if any problems arise with this person, I will go home and farm with him. If the Minister of Secretariat feels that there is anything wrong with the Huangmen Minister’s work, there is no need to impeach Mr. Ming. He can directly impeach me.
That’ll be fine.”
After the Huangmen servant heard Chen Xingxiu's words, he collapsed on the ground and kept shouting, "I don't dare to be humble, I don't dare to be humble."
"You even dare to impeach the crown prince, so what do you mean to me, a little prime minister?" Chen Xingxiu snorted coldly.
"I don't dare to do this in a humble position."
"Now that you are clear about this matter, do you still want to impeach my teacher?" Emperor Zhu You looked at the minister and asked with a smile.
"..." The Minister of Finance raised his head and glanced at the young emperor, then swallowed hard, and said loudly: "Those three crimes are also unforgivable."
After Chen Xingxiu heard this, he sighed helplessly, and then cursed at the man: "You really don't know how to live or die." After scolding, Chen Xingxiu returned to his original position, and then looked at the Minister of Secretariat with an indifferent expression. .
"Haha." The little emperor also looked at the minister and smiled helplessly, then his face changed and he shouted: "Drag him out and behead him."
After the emperor's words fell, the Jinluan Palace suddenly became deathly silent. No one expected that the little emperor who had a smile on his face just a second ago would suddenly become so cruel. He had no intention of dismissing the minister and minister. opportunity, but to behead him directly. You must know that the little emperor has never beheaded anyone since he came to the throne.
"Your Majesty, this is absolutely impossible."
After hearing this, several colleagues who had a relatively good relationship with the minister, the Minister, quickly stood up and prepared to intercede for this person.
"I am the emperor, or you are the emperor. Now even my teacher dares to impeach me. The upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked. In a few days, you will also prepare to impeach me." Zhu You stared and got angry. , the innate dragon power was undoubtedly revealed. After Zhu You saw that he didn't speak, he continued: "This man will beheaded, and all the others who plead for mercy will be demoted."
"Your Majesty." As soon as these words came out, all the civil and military officials knelt on the ground.
"Retreat from the court." Zhu You shouted.
"Your Majesty, please calm down!"
"I said that I would withdraw from the imperial court. Are you deaf?"
Zhu You threw the folded book in his hand to the ground, then stood up and ran towards the back of the Jinluan Hall, completely ignoring the civil and military officials kneeling in the hall.
After this incident, the officials in Daliang understood one thing. The emperor's temper did not seem to be as good as they thought.
