Chapter 1188 Decision
Hearing Xu Jie's words, Zhang Juzheng was also silent.
If his teacher hadn't been smart enough to deal with it, if the Yan Party really investigated the case of destroying the dike and flooding the fields, it would have been hard to say what the result would be. It's hard to say that their Xu Party really wanted to destroy it in this matter, and he
This proud disciple will also be implicated and transferred to Nanjing.
Although waiting is a good way, it actually hides certain risks. Yan Shifan has many tricks, but it is difficult to guarantee that other problems will occur, which will bring down his teacher.
The most important thing is that once Yan Shifan's observance ends and returns to the cabinet, Yan Song will receive a great help, and may also prolong Yan Song's "destiny".
"Brother Zisheng, what are your good plans?"
Hu Song respected this fellow villager and senior who repeatedly saved his political life and brought him to the Left Minister of War, and asked with great importance.
Zou Yinglong swallowed and looked up at Xu Jie, and found that his fate was still in the hands of the teacher.
Once this impeachment fails, he will become cannon fodder like Wu Shilai and others; and once he succeeds, he will be a great contributor to the Xu Party and his future will become limitless.
I just don’t know if this teacher can come up with a good idea to win this bet, so that he can rise up and win his wife and son.
When Xu Fan was rarely recognized by his father, he looked at his father with sharp eyes, hoping that his father could come up with a way to defeat Yan Song, so that he could have the opportunity to become a "little cabinet master".
Chen Boren didn't say anything from beginning to end, silently drank tea, and secretly exchanged a meaningful look with Xu Jie.
Xu Jie had already made a decision in his heart, and looked at everyone and finally spoke slowly: "Taiyue said it well, Master Yan is the face of the emperor, we cannot try to tarnish Master Yan and let him step down!"
Huh?
Hu Song and others were stunned. They thought Xu Jie wanted to use all his courage to fight Yan Song directly, but in the end, his hope was disappointing, and he did not intend to attack Yan Song, the old man.
Once Yan Song cannot be removed, it will be useless to just destroy one or two Yan Party backbones. Whether it is the former Minister of Works Zhao Wenhua or the former Minister of Personnel Wu Peng, they fully illustrate this issue.
Xu Jie saw everyone's disappointment, but continued: "Although we cannot impeach Master Yan, we can impeach Yan Shifan, which will implicate Master Yan's step down."
"Brother Zisheng, this strategy is very wonderful!" Hu Song did not expect that things would turn around and his eyes would be radiant.
Compared with the direct impeachment of Yan Song, the impeachment of Yan Shifan is undoubtedly much more clever and will not involve the emperor's face, and the success rate will undoubtedly greatly increase.
Zou Yinglong's eyes lit up and his thoughts suddenly became clear. Although he was also trying to target Yan Song, directly impeaching Yan Song is undoubtedly a dead end, but impeaching Yan Shifan contains many vitality.
Xu Fan was very concerned about the overthrow of Yan's party and immediately offered advice: "Dad, Yan Shifan's traitor is not an expert. During his time in charge of the Ministry of Works, he was very good at making a fortune, especially the three major hall projects, which cost at least 200,000 taels.
, Let's impeach him for this matter!"
A heavenly fire in the 36th year of Jiajing banned the first three halls of the Forbidden City, which also added a great burden to the Ming Dynasty's finances. The restoration project took five years and accumulated nearly 10 million taels of money, and it has only come to an end.
stage.
However, such a huge project will inevitably lead to maggots, and officials will inevitably make money here. Yan Shifan, as the actual person in charge of the Ministry of Works, will inevitably take the opportunity to make money.
If Yan Shifan's biggest crime is naturally his greedy face, he took money that did not belong to him.
Hu Song and others listened to Xu Fan's proposal, nodded slightly, believing that they could indeed start from the three halls to defeat Yan Shifan and then force Yan Song to step down.
Xu Jie didn't even think about it, and immediately decisively rejected it: "No!"
"Dad, why is this?" Xu Fan looked up at his father in confusion, not understanding why he wanted to reject the best ironclad evidence.
Hu Song and others were also confused, so they looked at Xu Jie one after another.
Xu Jie faced everyone's eyes, took a sip of tea before explaining seriously: "The three halls have always been under the charge of Lei Li, the Minister of Works, among which more than 100 officials were involved, and there were also internal officials involved. If we reveal this shortcoming
, that will face a fierce battle, a melee."
When Hu Song and others heard this analysis, they suddenly realized and nodded.
Although Yan Shifan is very greedy, he never tries to eat alone, but follows everyone in the same pot. Whether it is a second-rank official or a small eunuch who is accompanying supervisors, he will take them one by one
Pull it into the water.
Once Xu Jie wants to expose the corruption problem in the three halls to defeat Yan Shifan, not to mention how Yan's party will react, I'm afraid that someone within the Xu party will stand up to oppose him.
In the current corrupt court, once they do something to "smash rice cooker", Xu Jie may also face a lot of pressure.
Zhang Juzheng looked at the teacher, but he stopped talking.
Compared to choosing to attack Yan Shifan, he hoped to overthrow Yan Song in a dignified manner. The emperor realized that the court under Yan Song was already terminally ill, and realized that his mistake of using Yan Song was used, so as to carry out in-depth reforms to the Ming Dynasty.
But now teachers not only want to let Yan Song step down with decent, but also are unwilling to confront Yan Party head-on, but they are determined to get ahead and simply pursue the position of the chief minister.
But Zhang Juzheng was deeply worried. Can the position of chief minister be obtained in this way really bring great changes to the Ming Dynasty and restore the legacy of the prosperous Tang Dynasty?
"Brother Taiyue! Brother Taiyue!"
When Zhang Juzheng came to his senses, he found that Xu Fan was calling him softly, and he immediately lost his guilt.
Xu Fan pointed to Zou Yinglong who was ready to move beside him, and said to Zhang Juzheng with a smile: "Mr. Zhang, my father knows that you are very literary and want you to guide Mr. Zou's memorial!"
Zhang Juzheng turned his head and looked at Xu Jie with a gentle face, knowing that he was going to officially drip.
If this incident is successful, he will naturally have his contribution; but if the incident fails, he will definitely be hated by the Yan Party and even become a victim of political struggles like Wu Shilai.
Zhang Juzhengshen knew that if he wanted to gain the absolute trust of the teacher, these efforts were still needed. He immediately bowed seriously and said, "Students obey the order!"
"Since we decided to impeach Yu Yan Shifan, the work before the incident is also essential!" Xu Jie seemed to be preparing for it and slowly said to everyone.
Hu Song seemed very optimistic about the matter and immediately responded: "Brother Zisheng, but by order?"
"You may not know yet! Just a few days ago, Yan Shifan guessed that the emperor had the intention to stop investigating the deposition and flood the fields, and immediately urged Dong Wei to leave Beijing immediately, and then he barely avoided the palace servant who summoned Dong Wei into the palace!" Xu
Jie looked at Chen Boren meaningfully and said gently to everyone.
Chen Boren, who had been silent, suddenly spoke: "As far as I know, Yan Shifan knew that He Jiu died in prison, but he spoke wildly on the spot and said some disrespectful words!"
Chapter completed!
