"Haha, look at it, Third Brother, look at it. When Mr. was alive, these people were as honest as those little chickens. Now that Mr.'s body is still cold, these people can't wait to jump out one by one!"

Looking at the pile of impeachment memorials on the Long case, the little fat man couldn't help but sneer on his face.

On the fourth day after Zhang Juzheng's death, when the little fat man had just summoned Pan Sheng, who was recommended by Zhang Juzheng, to the capital, Yushi Lei Shijie and others filed a memorial to impeach Pan Sheng on the charge of corruption.

"Haha, corruption? Can't this Lei Shi frame, Zhang Dingsi and the others be charged with a better crime? Do they think they are spotless in Haigang Peak?"

Regarding this accusation of corruption, Wang Bing, who was also sneering, couldn't help but sneer.

You know, although this Pan Sheng is not as spotless as Hai Rui, he can definitely be regarded as an honest official.

However, if we really want to take it seriously, Pan Sheng cannot escape the charge of corruption.

There is no way, the salary of officials of the imperial court is too low, not everyone can be like Hai Gangfeng. Therefore, Pan Sheng must have received those unwritten regular silver income.

"Haha, they want to find other charges, but they have to find them!"

Obviously, the little fat man also knew very well about Pan Sheng's "corruption".

"Then your Majesty is ready..."

"They are testing me! Since the fish are biting the hook, I will go long and catch the big fish. As we agreed before, I will give them a whole handful of big fish, haha!"

Glancing at the pile of impeachment memorials on the Long case again, the little fat man couldn't help but laugh jokingly.

…

"Your Majesty, I want to impeach Wang Zhuan, so I and I have been spared..."

After the little fat man left out the previous memorial of Lei Shi frame impeaching Pan Sheng in order to 'fish', soon, inspired by this, some officials began to impeach Wang Zhuan, Zeng Xingwu, who was promoted by Zhang Juzheng during his lifetime.

However, just like the previous memorial to impeach Lei Shijie, the little fat man still remained silent.

Faced with the vague way of dealing with the little fat man, the censors and officials who thought they had figured out the emperor's thoughts became even more enthusiastic.

There was no way, in the opinion of these censors, although the emperor did not deal with Pan Sheng and others, he did not blame them. This means that the emperor was also dissatisfied with these people.

Therefore, faced with this situation, these people who thought they had figured out the emperor's true thoughts quickly launched a new round of testing.

"Your Majesty, Gao Qiyu, the left minister of the Ministry of Rites, was the former grand master Zhang Juzheng. When he took the exam in the seventh year of Wanli, he used the title 'Shun also ordered Yu' to encourage people to enter Zen and accept Zen. It is really disrespectful..."

After Wang Zhuan and Zeng Xingwu were impeached, Gao Qiyu, the left minister of the Ministry of Rites and a bachelor's degree student at the Hanlin Academy, was soon impeached by the imperial censor Ding Jilu on the charge of disrespect.

But this time, although on the surface they were impeaching Zhang Juzheng, Gao Qiyu's eldest son, anyone with a discerning eye could see that this was Xiang Zhuang's sword dance, and the real target was the deceased Zhang Juzheng.

"Tsk, tsk, Brother Zhu, these people are really anxious, they are about to start preparing for the main course!"

Although they were mentally prepared, what Wang Bing and Little Fatty didn't expect was that these people would point the finger at Zhang Juzheng, the former chief minister, so quickly.

"I want to see how many people there are!"

Faced with this spearhead that was clearly pointed at Zhang Juzheng, the little fat man's face darkened, but he still chose to remain silent.

Seeing that after this test, the little fat man remained silent. The opponents who were eager to overthrow the New Deal finally felt relieved and no longer had any scruples.

"Therefore, Zhang Juzheng, the grand master, suppressed the public officials and blocked the saints... He monopolized power and disrupted the government, ignored his superiors and betrayed his kindness, and was disloyal to the country!"

On December 4, the 14th year of Wanli, more than two months after Zhang Juzheng passed away, Yang Sizhi, the censor of Shaanxi Province, first impeached Zhang Juzheng for his "fourteen deadly sins".

Officials were also impeached one after another.

Immediately afterwards, Sun Jixian, the Sichuan Taoist censor, went to Shu to request that those officials who had been dismissed for "offending" Zhang Juzheng be reinstated.

At this point, a group of opponents of the New Deal officially sounded the clarion call for "backing down" and abolishing the New Deal.

Faced with this menacing attack, because of Little Fatty's previously ambiguous attitude, the officials of the New Deal faction, without Zhang Juzheng as their backbone, naturally found it somewhat powerless to fight back.

…

"Mr. served me for more than ten years. Within more than ten years, the country was purged and the barbarian people were subdued. Taicang's grain reserves can last for more than ten years, and the national treasury has tens of millions of gold. Your achievements are comparable to Yao Chong of the Tang Dynasty. He is a real saver of the times.

Prime Minister! You don't want to serve the country. You only know how to fight for power and profit all day long. Where do you want to put me? Where do you want to put the country of Ming Dynasty..."

To the surprise of all the civil and military officials in the court, just when those who opposed the New Deal thought that victory was in sight and New Deal officials were in danger, the little fat man reversed his previous ambiguity and clearly stated his attitude.

Support attitude towards the New Deal and Zhang Juzheng.

"Your Majesty, I am loyal to you, and I hope your Majesty will learn from it! The policies implemented by Zhang Juzheng are called reforms, but they are actually policies that are harmful to the people with evil intentions..."

Faced with the little fat man's sudden change of attitude, a group of opponents who held the banner of "reverse Zhang" were instantly stunned.

"It contains evil intentions? Why didn't I see this evil intention? But you guys, can't you see the food in Taicang and the silver in the treasury? Are you blind or have your conscience been eaten by dogs?"

"The policy of harming the people? Do you know what the people are? In your eyes, are only the gentry and wealthy businessmen considered the people? Don't forget, Emperor Taizu built the Ming Dynasty step by step from the real 'people'. We

Old Zhujia Bill and others know what the real 'people' are!"

Once again, Emperor Taizu, who was born a beggar, was brought out, and the little fat man directly exposed the little ideas and background of these people.

"Come here, take these villains who only know how to fight for power and wealth without caring about the country and the country and take them to the Meridian Gate... for public trial!"

Fortunately, the cane has been abolished, otherwise it would have been a spectacle if dozens of people were stripped of their pants and spanked at the Meridian Gate.

At this point, what seemed to be a menacing and vigorous "backward expansion" operation came to an abrupt end with the strong attack of the little fat man!

Compared with the original history, the little fat man wanted to use the liquidation of Zhang Juzheng to strengthen his authority, but in the end it was self-defeating, and the court fell into endless party disputes.

This time, under the influence of Wang Bing, the little fat man chose a method that was different from the original history, but successfully preserved the fruits of Zhang Juzheng's New Deal reforms.
