Chapter 1571 Rumors

Xiyuan, Wanshou Palace.

It is already half over November. Although the first snow in winter has not yet arrived, the entire Xiyuan clearly feels the coldness of the north, and a thick layer of ice has quietly formed on the lake surface of Taiyechi.

Xu Jie, wearing a python robe, came to the hall with the cold wind. He first sorted out his messed hair, then followed a little eunuch to the hall to celebrate, and then reported happily: "Report to the Emperor, the Governor of Ji Liao

Yang Xuan heard news that the Tartars fled far away from the collapsed wall!"

"I'm not escaping from afar, I'm looting enough money and returning home!"

Jiajing was wearing a thicker blue Taoist robe, sitting cross-legged on the long case, dealing with the memorial. Listening to Xu Jie's report on the news, he seemed to have already seen everything clearly.

As news came, especially the news of the victory in the North Gate of Tongzhou, his heart, who was originally worried about re-enacting the Gengxu Incident, slowly relaxed.

But the worry had faded, but the dissatisfaction was quietly aroused, holding a grudge against these inaction ministers and border generals. The great Ming Dynasty was in power, but the country was bullied by these Tartars repeatedly, which made him even more

The Lord of the Ming Dynasty was always worried. How could he not feel angry?

Xu Jie didn't know why the emperor uncovered the fig leaf, so he explained with a smile: "The Tartars are moving too fast, so our Ming army can only drive them behind, so naturally they will not let them rob some property!"

Feng Bao knelt beside him to help organize the memorials, but his eyebrows were frowned slightly and he quietly looked up at Xu Jie. As far as he knew, the Tartars not only robbed money and property this time, but also captured a lot of them.

The people of Ming Dynasty.

However, he knew in his heart that many things were not said intentionally, and the emperor was not willing to listen. The monarch and ministers in this court were "rarely confused."

Jiajing thought he was like a mirror, and knew that his own army could not defeat the Tartars, so he pointed to the several memorials piled on the case and said: "There are several memorials here that impeached the governor of Ji Liao, Yang Xuan, and other officials and

General, what do you think?”

It is actually a practice in previous years. The censors can cause trouble if they have nothing to do, and there is something clearly wrong with Yang Xuan. How could these censors who make a living by biting people miss this good opportunity?

The censors led by Li Yu, the military officer, submitted memorials, mainly impeaching the Governor Yang Xuan, the Governor of Ji Liao. In this incident, Yang Xuan, the Governor of Ji Liao, had obvious dereliction of duty, and he was indeed the first responsible person.

.

However, whether an official was at fault was finally decided by Jiajing. If the censor took a bite, the official would be in great trouble. Yan Song, who was the former, would never be the chief minister of the Ming Dynasty for twenty years.

Xu Jie wanted to imitate Yan Song in the past to create the image of a loyal minister, and tears burst into tears in his eyes: "When I first served as the chief minister, I advocated that the emperor listen to both sides and be clear. Now the emperor can listen to the opinions of the censors. I am very pleased.

also!"

"I won't discuss the matter with you!" Jiajing immediately raised his face and scolded him, then picked up the memorials and asked, "I asked you a few days ago, you said that the Tartars were stationed in Pinggu, and Yang Xuan was actually

He took the man to Tongzhou, and this man was extremely stupid. Tell me, how should he deal with Yang Xuan and his men now?"

After hearing this, Xu Jie finally understood what Jiajing was going to make. He immediately suggested: "I think Yang Xuan and his men should be imprisoned and investigated!"

Although he had a harmonious relationship with Yang Bo, he rarely interfered in the affairs of the Ministry of War. However, now that the Tartars have once again disturbed the capital and the emperor, especially the emperor has expressed his attitude, so he naturally will not be polite to Yang Xuan.

In fact, Yang Bo is too arrogant. His prime minister gave in several times, but Yang Bo became more arrogant. Now he is just taking advantage of this to hit Yang Bo.

Jiajing nodded with satisfaction and said immediately: "Yang Xuan, Xu Shen, Deputy Envoy Lu Yi, General Feng Zhao, Hu Can, Guerrilla Yan Zhan and others were arrested and imprisoned for investigation. Dali Temple was not properly handled, so this matter was

Leave it to the Ministry of Justice for investigation!”

"I obey the order!" Xu Jie immediately polite.

Jiajing handled this matter properly, and turned the memorials on the table again, as if he was devoted to work.

"Now that the governor of Ji Liao is vacant, we should immediately send capable ministers to Ji Liao. I think they are the Ministry of Rites..." Xu Jie had already had a series of plans in his mind, so he immediately bowed.

But before he finished speaking, Jiajing interrupted directly: "No hurry to do this!"

"Yes!" Xu Jie immediately stopped talking and responded respectfully.

Feng Bao noticed something strange and looked up at Xu Jie thoughtfully.

Jiajing picked up another memorial and asked Xu Jie, "Gei Xu, King Yi just wrote another self-examination message. What do you think about King Yi?"

"I think I can send someone to Luoyang, Henan to check!" Xu Jie had already known the whole story of this matter and immediately responded.

Jiajing's brows frowned slightly. Although the governor Hu Yaochen and the inspector Yan Jing said it in their memorials, he always felt that King Yi had no reason to rebel, but asked: "Can he be escorted to him?"

Waiting for trial in Beijing?”

"King Yi is the sixth-generation grandson of King Yili, the fifteenth son of Taizu. You should be careful and please think twice!" Xu Jie knew that Jiajing had obvious protection for King Yi, but he bowed seriously.

Jiajing put down his memorial with dissatisfaction and asked calmly: "What's wrong with this move?"

"I am afraid that King Yi will follow the example of King Xiang, and then he will put the emperor in an unjust way!" Xu Jie raised his head and looked at Jiajing affectionately, responding with a loyal look on his face.

Emperor Jianwen succeeded to the throne, and Zhu Bai, the Hunan King of Jingzhou, was strong-willed. Zhu Yunwen immediately sent envoys to arrest Zhu Bai. He thought he would give him a good example, but he never expected that Zhu Bai could not bear the humiliation and gathered his wife and children.

Together, they closed the palace gate and burned themselves to death.

It was this incident that made Emperor Jianwen lose his heart as a vassal and then lose his throne.

Jiajing also thought of this incident, was secretly surprised, and praised Xu Jie and said, "Cunzhai, you are very careful, so I will send the Jinyiwei to check it out!"

Cunzhai, this is the name of Xu Jie's study, which is more intimate than directly calling him, and it also reveals Jiajing's intimacy with Xu Jie at this time.

"The emperor's sage candle!" Xu Jie bowed and responded.

"Xu Qing, is there anything else?" Jiajing was about to let Xu Jie retreat, but when he saw him looking like he wanted to speak but stopped, he immediately asked in confusion.
