Chapter 138: Director Chu launches trouble [seeking monthly ticket]
The little eunuch was being stared at by so many important civil and military ministers at the moment, and it was understandable that he was under great pressure. At this moment, Zhu Houzhao raised his eyebrows and said: "Why are you hesitating? What happened to Hu Ming? Why don't you tell me quickly?" !”
The little eunuch lay on the ground and said: "Report to your majesty, Hu Yushi...he has passed away!"
"What, how could Mr. Hu die?"
Zhu Houzhao had a look of shock on his face, but if you look closely, you will find the calmness in Zhu Houzhao's eyes. It is obvious that he has no disturbance at all about Hu Ming's death.
Even if a monarch has no temper, if he is compared to the king of Jie and Zhou, he will probably kill someone.
Zhu Houzhao was quite magnanimous when he confiscated Hu Ming's house and exterminated his clan without being angered.
As for the other important civil and military ministers who had different expressions at the moment, looking at Yang Tinghe, Chu Yi, and Zhu Houzhao who looked shocked, no one said anything.
It was clear that the emperor was angry and wanted Hu Ming to die, and they couldn't say anything. Who told Hu Ming to kill himself in a right way? By comparing the emperor to Jie and Zhou, was he really bullying Zhu Houzhao, an emperor with a good temper?
It's even scarier when an honest person gets angry.
With the news of Hu Ming's death, everyone's original thoughts of admonishing the emperor to return to the palace suddenly stopped.
If you try to get into trouble with the emperor now, you might end up having to keep company with Hu Ming.
What's more, the emperor suddenly handed over the Chief of Ceremonies and the Royal Horse to Chu Yi, which meant that they suddenly had a powerful internal minister above them.
Liu Jin left, and Chu Yi came. The key point is that Chu Yi seems to be more difficult to deal with than Liu Jin. Even a fool can see that Chu Yi was specially introduced by Zhu Houzhao to fight with them in the ring to suppress them, even if he wanted to persuade the emperor. , then we have to wait until Chu Yi is captured.
Zhu Houzhao said with a sad look on his face: "Hu Yushi was a veteran of several dynasties, loyal to the emperor, and a model for all officials. Unfortunately, he passed away today. I am very sad!"
As he spoke, Zhu Houzhao said to Chu Yi: "Chu Daban, when Mr. Hu enters the funeral, you can go on my behalf to see Mr. Hu and his party off!"
Let Chu Yi, the man who massacred the Hu family, send Hu Ming away. I'm afraid that if Hu Ming is alive in heaven, he will have to pretend to be dead out of anger.
Chu Yi nodded and said: "Your Majesty, don't worry, I will definitely go and give Mr. Hu a big gift! I will never let Mr. Hu be lonely on the road to Huangquan!"
The civil and military officials always felt weird listening to the exchange between Chu Yi and Zhu Houzhao. Especially the last words Chu Yi said made people's hearts skip a beat. They suddenly thought of Chu Yi's killing spree in Jiangnan. Isn't this Butcher Chu? It's probably going to be another killing spree.
Just when the civil and military officials looked at Chu Yi with a faint chill in their hearts, Chu Yi said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, I want to impeach these two people!"
Zhu Houzhao's eyes lit up, he sat up straight and said with some hope: "Oh, who does Chu Daban want to impeach? Just tell him!"
Chu Yi took out two memorials from his sleeves and presented them to Zhu Houzhao: "Your Majesty, I impeach Mao Ji, the cabinet minister and minister of the Ministry of War, and Pang Wenbin, the minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs!"
Even though he knew that Chu Yi would definitely kill chickens and scare monkeys to establish his authority as soon as he came to power, he never expected that Chu Yi would directly target Mao Ji and Pang Wenbin.
One of these two people is the elder of the Pavilion and the Minister of the Ministry of War, and the other is the Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs. It can be said that they are both powerful ministers. As a result, Chu Yi directly pointed out the two of them as soon as he came up, which was beyond everyone's expectations.
It was expected that Chu Yi would use people to establish his authority, but it was quite surprising to directly point at Mao Ji and Pang Wenbin.
Mao Ji and Pang Wenbin's expressions changed and they said to Chu Yi: "Chu Yi, do you have any evidence to impeach the two of us? Otherwise, you are setting up a false accusation!"
Chu Yi sneered and said: "You won't forget that this governor was in charge of Dongchang before. Do you really think that you can hide the things you have done from the world?"
After hearing what Chu Yi said, the expressions of Mao Ji and Pang Wenbin, who had been holding on just now, couldn't help but change. Dongchang's deterrence was too great, and they really didn't dare to guarantee some of the things they had done.
Was it really discovered by Dongchang?
You must know that any of the many things they did would be a capital offense if discovered.
Zhu Houzhao, who had received the impeachment memorial presented by Chu Yi, was looking through it one by one. Looking at the memorial, Zhu Houzhao looked gloomy, and finally slammed the memorial to Mao Ji and Pang Wenbin who were kneeling there.
The two said angrily: "Mao Ji, Pang Wenbin, you are so brave. You are the Minister of the Ministry of War, the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, and my ministers. I trust you so much in vain. But is this how you repay me?"
As he spoke, Zhu Houzhao pointed at Mao Ji, the Minister of War, and said: "Mao Ji, you are in charge of the Ministry of War, and you have embezzled a total of 580,000 taels of money and silver. You have protected the defeated generals who killed good men and pretended to be public servants, and you have allowed your relatives and friends to roam the countryside..."
As Mao Ji listened to Zhu Houzhao describing his crimes one by one, he finally couldn't hold on any longer and fell to the ground, his eyes full of despair.
Pang Wenbin on the side was trembling all over. When Zhu Houzhao looked at him, Pang Wenbin couldn't help shouting: "Your Majesty, I know my crime, I know my crime, please be magnanimous and spare my life!"
Zhu Houzhao grabbed the teacup and smashed it on Pang Wenbin and said angrily: "You still have the nerve to beg for mercy. I really didn't expect that my assistant minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs was actually a good man who sold his official position and title for a total of 1.28 million taels. Tell me, what exactly are you doing?"
How many official positions have been sold?"
Looking at Pang Wenbin, Zhu Houzhao said again: "Sisters from the Feng family in Liuye Lane, young master from the Zhu family in Donghua Hutong, you have taken possession of women and kidnapped young children. For this reason, you have not hesitated to kill the whole family. It is in vain that you are also a heir of poetry and calligraphy and a descendant of a saint.
, what kind of appearance do you have standing in the court, alongside the Gonggun princes!"
The civil and military officials all around looked at Pang Wenbin with strange expressions, and secretly sympathized with them. In their eyes, what Pang Wenbin did was nothing. It was only because Pang Wenbin was targeted by Chu Yi that he became Chu Yi.
The goal of establishing prestige.
Pang Wenbin wailed: "Your Majesty, I am loyal to you. I know my crime. Please spare my life!"
Zhu Houzhao said coldly: "I can forgive you, but God can't forgive you!"
There was a click, it was originally sunny, but half a day later, the clouds were overcast, but now there was a thunder, and big raindrops fell suddenly.
The autumn rain continued, bringing with it a strong chill. Big raindrops hit my body, soaking my clothes, but it was chilly to the bone.
Zhu Houzhao looked at the civil and military personnel who were soaked by the heavy rain, waved his hands and said: "Gentlemen, please go back, I am a little tired!"
The civil and military personnel who were shivering in the wind and rain immediately said goodbye to Zhu Houzhao one by one as if they had been granted amnesty.
They came excitedly and came back in a panic, all of them were like drowned rats. It was really beyond everyone's expectations.
Many civil servants sneezed repeatedly when they returned to the mansion. Although there was a possibility of catching the cold, compared to Hu Ming who was beaten to death, Mao Ji and Pang Wenbin who were pulled out by Chu Yi as a target of power, they seemed to be lucky.
of.
However, Chu Yi was so merciless when he took action, targeting the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Officials. This made the civil and military officials of the dynasty feel that a storm was coming.
Although Yang Tinghe is already old, his body is quite strong. After being caught in the rain, he returned to the house, changed his clothes, and drank ginger tea. Yang Tinghe was sitting in the study. At some point, a figure appeared in the house.
In the study room.
This man was dressed in a green shirt and looked to be about forty years old. He was elegant, elegant and had an extraordinary bearing.
As soon as this man appeared, he said to Yang Tinghe: "Mr. Yang invited me here, what's the matter?"
Yang Tinghe came back to his senses, his expression straightened, and he looked at Zhu Han with a bit of solemnity and said: "Mr. Zhu, I wonder if you are sure to kill Chu Yi, the governor of the East Factory."
Zhu Han raised his brows and said with a bit of confidence: "He is just a eunuch. Even though he practices the Sunflower Book of Secrets taught by Da Nei, he is definitely no match for me!"
As he spoke, Zhu Han looked at Yang Tinghe with a half-smile but said, "Didn't Mr. Yang disapprove of the assassination of Chu Yi before? Why did he do it today..."
A stern look flashed in Yang Tinghe's eyes and he said: "I thought I could capture Chu Yi within the rules, but I never thought that the emperor would attach so much importance to Chu Yi. Not only did he secretly order him to return to the capital overnight, but he also announced in public that he would take charge of the department.
Ceremony Supervisor, Royal Horse Supervisor."
Zhu Han's eyes lit up and he said: "Oh, a chamberlain is also in charge of the imperial horse supervisor and the ritual supervisor. It seems that the emperor really wants to support Chu Yi to fight against the princes."
Yang Tinghe nodded slightly, glanced at Zhu Han and said: "Not long ago, Chu Yi impeached Mao Ji and Pang Wenbin and listed the evidence of their crimes in detail. Your Majesty was outraged by it. I am afraid that Mao and Pang are finished!"
"
Zhu Han said with a smile: "It seems that this person is more difficult to deal with than Liu Jin. Did Mr. Yang decide that Zhu will kill him?"
Yang Tinghe took a deep breath and nodded: "Chu Yi has become a traitor. If we wait any longer, I'm afraid it will become a trend that cannot be eliminated. Therefore, even if he breaks the rules, Chu Yi must be removed first."
As he spoke, Yang Tinghe looked at Zhu Han and said: "Mr. Zhu, you are a descendant of the saint. You have the true inheritance of the saint, and you are in the lineage of Cheng Zhu Neo-Confucianism. You respect your cultivation, Mr. Zhu, so I leave it to you to kill Chu Yi this time!"
Zhu Han nodded and disappeared without a trace, leaving only a lingering voice: "Mr. Yang, please wait for my good news!"
There is no airtight wall in this world. All the important civil and military ministers went to the Leopard Room to force the emperor, but they were all beaten by the emperor. Hu Ming was killed, Mao Ji, and Pang Wenbin were killed. This is not just that, it is more important.
What's more, Chu Yi is the general manager of two major organizations, namely the Royal Horse Supervisor and the Lili Supervisor. He is simply the number one person in the palace, and his power far exceeds that of Liu Jin in the past.
As soon as the news came out, the capital city was in an uproar. I don't know how many people spread the news about Chu Yi. Especially the news that Chu Yi ransacked homes and exterminated clans in Jiangnan, and killed many people in Jiangnan, which made Chu Yi even more ferocious.
name.
Of course, the news that tens of millions of silver coins were confiscated was on its way to the capital. It was unknown who spread the news. The entire capital seemed to be filled with news about Chu Yi overnight. Some people clapped their hands and applauded, while others
Cursing and cursing, in this situation, Chu Yi stepped onto the stage.
