First, there was a memorial to impeach Emperor Chongzhen's current trusted ministers, including those whom outsiders thought were his trusted ministers.
Wang Dehua's previous bad things, including his public impeachment, corruption, collusion with foreign courts, etc., don't want to list too many details one by one.
Then there is Wang Chengen, who was impeached for accepting bribes and other things in the past.
Zuo Maodi didn't run away either, even though he had only been an official in the capital for a short time. Most of them held local posts and were impeached by people who found various faults.
The same goes for the chief minister, He Fengsheng, and there are more impeachment memorials.
Even Sun Chuanting didn't run away. Even though he had been imprisoned in prison in recent years, people still found a lot of problems.
Do you want evidence? Yes, there is. There are even servants of these people who came out to report. As for why the servants came out to report at this time, I don’t know.
In short, it probably means the same thing, these people also made mistakes, should you, the emperor, deal with them or not?
If your emperor is making such a fuss, then he should quote the laws from the time of Emperor Taizu. The ancestors have the greatest legal system, and some of these people are enough to skin them and turn them into grass!
How can you convince the public if you don't deal with it?
Of course Emperor Chongzhen knew that this was for his general!
This was not over yet. Then, officials from one yamen and then another yamen began to submit their resignations. Without waiting for the emperor's approval, they stayed at home and did not go to the yamen.
Later, basically all the yamen in the capital were paralyzed.
The officials are not doing their jobs, and the officials are not doing their jobs either.
When this situation first occurred, Emperor Chongzhen was furious and ordered Wang Chengen to immediately investigate and arrest those who dared to resign in tandem and threaten him.
But according to the results of the investigation, it seems that no one is connected to this matter.
One person resigned to avoid this trend, while others saw it and followed suit. If one yamen did this, other yamen saw it and followed suit.
If the officials behave like this, the officials will follow suit.
There is no other reason for this. In the late Ming Dynasty, almost all officials, whether they were officials or officials, committed violations of laws and disciplines.
If the emperor is really stupid and wants to rectify the situation according to the ancestral legal system, they will all die or be imprisoned, so they will all give up their business!
After this happened, Emperor Chongzhen only persisted for one day before he couldn't stop it.
When various government offices went on strike, prices skyrocketed, and everything in the capital, even if he controlled the Yongwei Camp and the Five Cities Military and Horse Division, was still a bit out of control.
When Emperor Chongzhen heard the news, he became furious, and then ordered everyone to retreat and contacted Liu Weichao.
These days, he has been busy with this matter, thinking that after finishing the matter, he will contact Liu Weichao and get the results, such as how much money he got from confiscating the house, and how many ungrateful guys he punished, so as to show Liu Weichao his ability.
But things went counterproductive. Even if he was the emperor, he could not do whatever he wanted!
As soon as the video was connected, Liu Weichao smiled and asked: "Are you busy these days? No contact!"
These days, he has been developing mobile software, working from morning to night, even ordering takeout for three meals a day, and finishing it at the computer.
However, he is also happy with this kind of work, because it is working for himself.
The sooner development is completed, the sooner you can start making money.
Emperor Chongzhen did not contact him, and he did not bother to contact Emperor Chongzhen.
But at this time, as soon as he finished speaking, he noticed that something was wrong with Emperor Chongzhen's face, so he quickly asked: "What's wrong? Looking at your expression, something seems wrong!"
Seeing Liu Weichao's smile, Emperor Chongzhen's irritable mood suddenly felt better, and he said to Liu Weichao: "I thought that there are many places for disaster relief across the country, and there are many places to spend money, so I thought of ways to raise more money at once...
…”
Then, he briefly explained what happened.
There were many truths and his plans that Emperor Chongzhen would not tell anyone. But he told Liu Weichao in great detail.
For example, based on the evidence he has, it is still not possible to confirm that the Jiulian Bodhisattva case was really done by Zhu Chunchen. Even if he was caught with evidence this time, he did instruct the servants in the palace to spread rumors, but after all, there are still two people.
something.
However, Emperor Chongzhen was already very disgusted with Zhu Chunchen, and he also knew that Zhu Chunchen, who he trusted so much, not only did not die for his country, but also opened the door to welcome the thieves. All these reasons, some of which cannot be said publicly, have deepened his dislike of Zhu Chunchen.
In the end, he also ruled that Zhu Chunchen was responsible for the case of Jiulian Bodhisattva. He was punished for several crimes, and this hereditary prince was put to death!
Also, originally he had never thought of making such a big fuss, but after the initial arrests, especially those in Dongchang due to Wu Changshi's incident, the more people were arrested, the more people were arrested, and the more money was stolen.
, I just couldn’t hold it back.
Slowly, it got a bit out of control.
Liu Weichao also lost his smile and remained silent while listening to Emperor Chongzhen's words.
The reason why this happened is that at this time in the late Ming Dynasty, the officialdom was already rotten, so something like this could affect the whole body.
If this is still a peaceful time, it actually doesn't matter. If all the government offices in the capital go on strike, they will be punished. Officials with better political performance will be selected from all over the country to come to Beijing and promoted.
After all, the group of officials is too large to be monolithic. As far as the entire country is concerned, the number of officials is large enough, and there is always someone the emperor can use.
Even if some things in the capital are delayed due to the government strike, it's not a big deal.
However, it is already the end of the Ming Dynasty and the fifteenth year of Chongzhen. Many places across the country have fallen into the hands of bandits.
The populous Central Plains, the land of plenty and Huguang, and other places are all ravaged by bandits.
While other places are experiencing constant disasters, drought, famine, plague...
Under such a background, the emperor cannot use the power of the whole country to dig out his flesh and mend the sores!
This situation is really a bit like Hong Kong in the past.
While he was thinking about it, he heard Emperor Chongzhen say to him a little helplessly: "In this situation, what do you think I should do?"
Before Liu Weichao could speak, he added: "He Fengsheng, Zuo Maodi and others have all submitted petitions to resign in response to impeachment!"
After hearing this, Liu Weichao comforted Emperor Chongzhen and said, "Aren't you still in control of the situation now? It's okay!"
After a pause, he saw Emperor Chongzhen's eyes light up, and he continued: "Wait a moment, I will search for historical events first, it should be similar to your situation, and then I will talk to you later, maybe
You can learn from it!”
When Emperor Chongzhen heard this, he was a little curious, nodded quickly and said, "Okay, I'm waiting for your news!"
After finishing speaking, he hung up the communication with some hesitation.
