Chapter 62 Peace of mind and laziness, old things happen again(2/3)
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhu Yijun turned his head and looked at Yang Bo.
The meaning in his eyes was unclear. He seemed to be just asking the chief minister, and seemed to be talking to Yang Bo: "Why did Mr. Yang impeach Governor Gu?"
Zhang Juzheng said: "Impeaching Gu Huan, going beyond the Ministry of War and reporting to His Majesty, is against the rules."
Yang Bo's face changed slightly.
Zhu Yijun nodded: "I understand, Zhang Qing continues."
Zhang Juzheng continued according to the script: "We also discussed the matter of announcing the university and the southeastern border defense."
"As well as Hu Ke, they were all asked to be questioned by the officials involved in the matter. Hai Rui, the censor of Qiandu, was impeached. As a censor, he lived in Fusi, Beizhen. He was suspected of collusion with both internal and external parties."
"Also, Hu Yushi just gave this performance."
After saying that, he raised his head and glanced at the emperor.
The emperor's face was expressionless, with no thoughts at all.
He had anticipated this situation since the emperor expressed his intention to initiate the Lianghuai Salt Policy.
His political views differ greatly from those of Hai Rui. It can be said that he completely disapproves of this matter.
But the emperor insisted on this, so he could only acquiesce.
Acquiescence is the limit, and it is naturally impossible to get his full support.
To reach this level of official status, except for a lone minister like Hai Rui, no one else is just yourself, but a large group of people behind you.
In addition to your own ideas, you should also consider the ideas of your colleagues.
For Zhang Juzheng to raise a banner and explicitly say that he wants to change the Lianghuai Salt Policy, it means that he has to give up the support of the Southern Zhili behind him.
This level of difficulty is no different from using a knife on yourself.
The knife edge is facing inward, which is the most difficult.
The only support he could do was to suppress his own dissatisfaction, act impartially on the surface, and handle the case as an ordinary case.
However, he can suppress his own side, but the township party in South Zhili is not only behind him.
Just the household department was left to the interrogators. Bi Qiang, the right minister of the Ministry of Punishment, was surrounded by a large number of people from Southern Zhili.
The middle-level students in the Hanlin Academy and the Six Departments accounted for almost half of the subjects.
The North-South List case has its own reasons, and it is not as simple as a sign at this time.
Not to mention that among them, the Jin Party has been dissatisfied with Gu Huan's affairs for a long time, and may not be able to add fuel to the flames.
Zhang Juzheng had already had a premonition that there would probably be trouble.
As soon as he heard about the fire in Ciqing Palace this morning, he knew he was going to suffer.
At this time, seeing the emperor's expression as calm as the sea, with waves gathering, he did not dare to be distracted, for fear that the emperor would be frustrated in doing something for the first time, and would resort to the trick of the imperial staff.
But after Zhu Yijun heard what Zhang Juzheng said, he was not furious.
Instead, he nodded slightly towards Gaoyi and said: "Sir, my younger sister Yao Jiang has passed away. I want to be named a princess. Can you get a ceremony for me as soon as possible?"
It’s not just Grohe.
Everyone was startled.
Zhang Juzheng’s heart skipped a beat!
No wonder the emperor looked like this! He thought it was just a simple fire, but it turned out that he lost his little sister! The emperor must have been extremely angry at this time!
He suddenly raised his head and looked at some people, with silent questioning in his eyes.
How dare you!
He thought he could just set off a fire to build up his momentum, but who would have thought that he would dare to do this!?
Zhang Siwei and Jia Daiwen's expressions changed dramatically, and they shook their heads violently, signaling with their eyes to clear the relationship with the chief minister.
Gao Yi also lost her voice and said: "Yao Jiang, the seventh daughter of the late emperor, passed away!?"
"When did it happen?"
Zhu Yijun shook his head: "Just now, you will know later."
When the imperial doctor found out, he would naturally report the details to the cabinet, and he didn't want to waste any more words.
Gao Yi quickly asked: "Why?"
Zhu Yijun still had no expression on his face and looked very calm: "The imperial doctor said it was sudden death due to convulsion."
Gaoyi and Zhang Juzheng looked at each other.
Sudden death from convulsions means ending without a cure...
Both of them felt very bad.
Gao Yi wanted to ask more questions, but Zhu Yijun dropped a note of courtesy, sir, and looked at Lu Tiaoyang: "Lu Qing, I specially chose a title, called Princess Qixia, do you think it's okay?"
Lu Tiaoyang was silent for a moment.
Finally, he cupped his hands and replied: "I obey your order."
This is not as simple as asking for a ban.
This matter should have been addressed to the Ministry of Rites, but instead it was asked to him, an assistant minister in the cabinet.
In other words, Zhang Juzheng, Gao Yi and Lu Tiaoyang were forced to express their opinions.
The emperor is extremely angry!
The three of them didn't know what the emperor wanted to do. They looked at each other and saw that each of them looked worried.
Zhu Yijun looked at Yang Bo again at this time: "Mr. Yang Ge, after hearing about your impeachment, Gu Huanyuo, the governor of the capital camp, reported to the Ministry of War?"
Yang Bo was at a loss and nodded bravely.
Zhu Yijun said kindly: "There are some reasons for this. Wang Chonggu, the Minister of War, has not yet taken office, and there is a backlog of official duties. It is really an expedient measure."
"What do you think Mr. Yang Ge?"
Yang Bo is in a dilemma.
He glanced left and right, just in time to see the looks on his colleagues' faces and Zhang Siwei's hint.
He suddenly realized that the emperor was deliberately suppressing him!
At this time, he still had room to change his head, otherwise, I am afraid that the death of Princess Qixia will be remembered on his own head!
He quickly said: "Your Majesty is right, but I am superficial!"
Zhu Yijun nodded.
Only then did he have time to respond to Hu Wei's petition.
He consulted the courtiers: "The star invaded the Lord and lit up the earth, the palace caught fire and spread to the neighboring houses, and the younger sister had a convulsion and died without treatment. Are all these caused by my bad conduct?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Li Zai came out of the court and said: "Your Majesty!"
"The auspicious star is in the sky, which means that your majesty has a capable minister to assist you, and the heaven and earth are in harmony; the fire in the inner court means that the country's virtues are prosperous and prosperous; the incident of Princess Qixia is the fault of the imperial doctor!"
"Hu Zhuo stirs up troubles, barks, and criticizes the Holy Lord. This is a way to kill him. I ask you to kill him with a stick!"
As soon as Li finished speaking in the court, everyone in the household department changed their expressions when asked about the matter.
His face was filled with anger.
Pointing at Li Zaiting's nose, he cursed: "It is customary for officials to speak out, and no one has ever been punished for his words!"
"Li Zaiting, as a public official, you always want to kill your colleagues. What's the difference between you, a traitor, and Yan Song!"
He had long been dissatisfied with Li Zaiting's efforts to help the emperor do evil.
At this time, I have a lot of manuscripts in my mind, and I am about to continue to reprimand this person.
But suddenly I heard a cold voice: "Is Jia Gei criticizing Sang and Huai in this matter?"
He turned around and saw that it was Gao Yi, looking at him with a cold expression.
Jia Daiwen's expression changed.
Bi Qiang, the right minister of the Ministry of Punishment, quickly came out to support: "Everyone, please discuss this..."
A voice of appreciation suddenly came from the imperial steps: "It's time to have a good discussion."
Zhu Yijun looked at everyone and said, "I asked if it was due to my bad ethics. Why is it that only Li Qing responded to me?"
"Am I so immoral that all the ministers dislike me?"
Lu Tiaoyang was already sweating profusely and immediately wanted to come forward to comfort him.
The emperor ignored him and continued: "Li Qing's words may seem like comforting me."
"Today, the stars in the sky are showing omens, the fires on the earth are warning, and relatives are dying young. How can I remain indifferent?"
"I have listened to Hu Yushi's advice."
At this point, Zhang Juzheng's heart skipped a beat. He had already realized something and was about to interrupt.
To be continued...
