Chapter 271: The Great Court Meeting(1/2)
"Mr. Li, is this something wrong?" Wang Yongji looked at Li Biao and said with a little hesitation.
Li Biao was quite dissatisfied and said with a faint smile: "What's wrong? It's been half a month since the notice? Isn't this Wuqing Bo Mansion still unresponsive? Why don't we seal his garden?"
"We are not saying that if we are notified within half a month, we will be sealed."
Wang Yongji looked at Li Biao helplessly, yes, we are talking about seizure, but are you seizure? You are almost like chasing the house and moving things back. Wang Yongji discovered that Li Biao is not much easier to do than Xing Shangzhi here.
"Mr. Wang, let's give an ultimatum!" Li Biao looked at Wang Yongji: "In the last three days, if Wu Qing Bo Mansion does not come to pay the Qing land payment and fine, will the garden be confiscated?"
At this point, there is only this. Wang Yongji waved his hand and said to the person behind him: "Give the ultimatum to the person in charge, let him go back to Wuqing Bo Mansion to report the news."
"Yes, sir!" The clerk agreed and hurried into Tsinghua Park to find the manager.
Wu Qingbo’s Tsinghua Park was sealed. This matter was definitely not a trivial matter, it was very rumored. Especially in the homes with gardens in the western suburbs, it can be said that it caused an uproar.
But the court's attention is not at all in this regard now, and no one pays attention to this matter.
Even if you want to make trouble, you can't make trouble. Now everyone is fighting for the Taoist throne. Who has the heart to take care of your broken garden in the western suburbs? I want to make trouble for this matter, but no one pays attention to it.
On the contrary, when the memorials of several major officials from the cabinet came out, they caused an uproar.
Originally, Neo-Confucianism and the study of Mind was directly aimed at the new Confucianism, and the fight was unmatched. Except for a few defenders, most of them were speculative people, and they were so full of existence that they could not help.
But no one expected that at this critical moment, the cabinet actually made such a memorial.
For a moment, public opinion in the court was completely in chaos. Countless people began to write letters, some criticized the cabinet, while others flattered the cabinet. The same was true for the people, and they made a fuss.
Forbidden City, Wenhua Hall.
Zhu Yijun listened to Zhang Jing’s report and nodded: “I understand!”
Zhang Jing reported on the recent situation in the capital, and the Jinyiwei seized Tsinghua Park. Zhu Yijun had expected this long ago, and Li Biao's ruthless move was not beyond Zhu Yijun's expectations.
In fact, the training of internal factories has been more inclined to the Legalists from the very beginning.
In the eyes of these people, there is no other person except the emperor, and they don’t care about anything else. The emperor has great kindness to them, adopted them, and gave them a future. This is to treat me with a national hero, and I will repay him with a national hero.
Playing with two jade balls in his hand, Zhu Yijun asked, "Is Xu De going back?"
"Go back to Your Majesty, Eunuch Xu sent a letter yesterday, which has been in the past few days." Zhang Jing quickly replied.
Zhu Yijun nodded. This time he was a big deal, so Zhu Yijun naturally had to hold all his strength tightly. After thinking about it, Zhu Yijun said, "Let Zhang Cheng keep a good eye on me in the army."
"Send orders to the Governor's Office of the Five Army, whether it is the Beijing camp or the Imperial Army, you must not act without orders."
"Transfer the order to Qi Jiguang and Zhang Weixian, so that they can speed up and strive to arrive in the capital within seven days. In addition, the order is sent to the government offices inside and outside the capital, guard the yamen and strictly prevent anyone from taking the opportunity to cause trouble."
"The East Factory and the Jinyiwei supervise the inside and outside of the capital, and do not allow sluts to take advantage of the opportunity."
Zhang Jing quickly bowed and said, "Yes, Your Majesty, I will go and pass the order now."
Zhu Yijun waved his hand: "Wait a minute, and pass on the imperial edicts to the cabinet and all officials. On the first day of next month, all civil and military officials of the fourth rank or above in the capital will be waiting for the imperial edict in the Huangji Palace. I will hold a grand dynasty meeting."
Hearing Zhu Yijun's words, Zhang Jing was shocked and quickly said loudly: "I will go and pass the order now."
The imperial court meeting was held in Huangji Hall, and all civil and military officials above the fourth rank in the capital must attend. This is something that has never happened since the emperor ascended the throne. The emperor held a grand ceremony in Huangji Hall, and Zhang Jing and all civil and military officials knew about it.
If the emperor ascended the throne, the emperor would marry and enthrone the empress, and ordered him to go to war. In addition, at the annual opening ceremony, the emperor would accept congratulations from civil and military officials here and give him a banquet to the princes and ministers.
But that kind of ceremonial meeting basically has a stronger etiquette than it is really discussed in the Huangji Palace.
This time, the emperor not only had to hold a grand court meeting, but also had to use the Huangji Palace. This is a remarkable thing! Zhang Jing's heart was beating as he walked out, and the Ming Dynasty was afraid that the sky would change.
Now there are troubles in the court, and any little news will cause a stir.
In fact, the court was waiting for news from the emperor. After all, the various factions are fighting in a mess now, but everyone knows that at this time, the emperor will not speak, so they can't make a fight.
But what will the emperor do? It is very important to take sides at this time.
Compared to fighting for the throne, this kind of political position is more important. Those who stand in the wrong position can be imagined. Those who stand in the team will be able to make a fortune. So what did the emperor think?
Unlike the people, officials in the court have their own scale in their hearts.
This time, four grand scholars from the cabinet wrote a letter together, and the emperor held a grand court meeting in the Huangji Hall. What does this mean? There is no need to be a keen sense of smell. If you can't guess it, you don't have to be a official anymore.
With four Grand Secretary pushing behind, the Chong Ancient School was very popular for a while.
That night, Xu De finally returned to the palace and arrived at the palace as soon as possible.
Looking at Xu De who was kneeling on the ground, Zhu Yijun smiled and said, "Okay! Get up!" When Xu De stood up, Zhu Yijun continued, "I feel very relieved when the errand was done this time."
"This is all for the Emperor's Hong Fu." Xu De bowed quickly.
Zhu Yijun smiled and nodded. Recently, Zhu Yijun has become a little immune to flattery. Compared to civil servants, Xu De's flattery is nothing at all. If you are used to eating delicacies and eating simple meals, you finally feel that it is not tasty enough.
"I originally planned to give you a few days off, but now it's not possible." Zhu Yijun said with a smile: "There are many things in the capital, you have to be busy. The inner factory will have to mobilize it with all its strength this time."
"Detect all officials in the capital and find out all those who spread out inappropriate remarks."
"Mobilize all the forces of the Nei Factory in the capital, promote the ancient school, spread the theories of the four cabinet ministers, and spread the names of the four Zhongxing bachelors, so that people know that the prosperous era of the Ming Dynasty is coming."
If things get out of control, Zhu Yijun will not hesitate to do a literary inquisition.
Although this will lead to a bad start, it is an extraordinary method at an extraordinary time. What you want to do is a big thing, and you must show your courage. In Zhang Juzheng's words, Lanzhi blocks the way, and I will also get rid of it!
Xu De quickly bowed and said, "Yes, Emperor, after I go back, I will arrange people immediately."
When the news of Zhu Yijun's grand dynasty meeting spread, it instantly shocked the entire capital. Obviously everyone knows that it is time to get a result.
For a moment, countless people ran around and called out, wanting to gain an advantage in this showdown.
The original fighting spirit and Neo-Confucianism are now in a situation of unity against the enemy. Both sides are running around, looking for like-minded people, starting to unite, and want to gain an advantage in the grand dynasty meeting.
Some officials of the study of psychology and science also began to submit memorials to impeach Shen Shixing and other major officials.
Forbidden City, Wenhua Hall.
Looking at the memorials piled up in front of him, Zhu Yijun sighed helplessly and said to Zhang Jing who was serving him: "Let someone separate these memorials and send them to the Grand Secretary of the Cabinet to burn them."
"I agree with the memorials of the Grand Secretary of the Cabinet, and I will keep them all at the end of the Communist Party of China."
If it were in the past, the emperor would not send any news, which basically represented the emperor's attitude. But now, one would be to keep it but not send any news, and the other would be to take it out and burn it, and Zhu Yijun's attitude was even more obvious.
It’s really impossible for Zhu Yijun to think that it’s obvious. If things get to this point, you must ensure success.
Not only do you have to end up in person, but you can throw away the lower limit of moral integrity when necessary. If things fail, then you will be in trouble. However, Zhu Yijun is not very worried about the failure of things, and this time he united the majority.
Although Shen Shixing and they may not be the majority in quantity, they are the majority in quality.
"Emperor, Wu Qingwang has entered the palace!" After packing up the memorial, Zhang Jing ran in in a small step, and said with a hurried expression: "I have been summoned to Cining Palace by the Empress Dowager."
Zhu Yijun nodded and raised his eyebrows. He really remembered to eat or beat him!
After the death of Wuqing's uncle Li Wei, he inherited his title as his son Li Gao. He had many bad habits on weekdays and became a traitor with his son-in-law Xu Congcheng. He thought about how to take advantage of the country all day long.
This Xu Congcheng may not be famous, but he has a grandson who is very famous, that is the famous Xu Xianchun.
Wei Zhongxian's confidant was also a famous cruel official.
Zhu Yijun originally thought that if the Wuqing Bo Mansion was a little more obedient this time, he would not be too cruel to them. He did not expect that he would be so virtuous. Why do these people think that they have privileges? They just think that they are different from others, so where does this confidence come from?
"I understand." Zhu Yijun nodded, then sat on the dragon throne and waited.
After waiting for a long time, Cining Palace did not send anyone, but news came over. The person who came to send the news was Zhang Hong. The eunuch in charge of the seal and Empress Dowager Li's confidant.
"Emperor, this is what the Empress Dowager means." After Zhang Hong said that, he bowed and retreated.
Zhu Yijun sighed and shook his head helplessly.
This time, Empress Dowager Li had no intention of intervening, and even scolded Li Gao, which was so tragic that he scolded him. He was very clear that this was the law of the court, so why did the Wuqing Bo Mansion think that he could be different from others?
After scolding him, he drove Li Gao out of the palace.
After driving Li Gao away, Empress Dowager Li sent someone to pass the message and told Zhu Yijun to let go and not to worry about Wuqing Bo Mansion. Do what should be done and not delay the important affairs of the court for Wuqing Bo Mansion.
Zhu Yijun sighed. He originally wanted to take this opportunity to get along with Li Gao, but now it seems that there is no chance.
"Transfer the order to Li Biao and let him follow the normal procedures!" Zhu Yijun gave a light command and began to look down and continue reading the memorial. The court will be about to come, so don't be distracted by these small things.
"Yes, the emperor!" Zhang Jing agreed respectfully.
Taxation Department Office.
Wang Yongji sat in the duty room and drank tea. Li Biao was not far from him. After a glance at Li Biao, Wang Yongji found that he was not in a hurry at all. He sighed in his heart that this person was really heartbroken.
Wu Qingbo entered the palace angrily, and he really could sit still.
In fact, Li Biao was not worried at all psychologically. He was born in an internal factory and knew that he was loyal to the emperor. At the same time, he knew that the emperor would definitely not let them down. He could take his life for the sake of the emperor, and the emperor would never deal with him because of this little thing.
Even if Wu Qing Bo’s Mansion went to the palace to cry, Li Biao had only mockery in his heart, and gave the words "two words" to Wu Qing Bo: It's useless!
While the two of them were drinking tea and waiting for the news, footsteps suddenly came from outside, and then a clerk led a little eunuch in from outside. It was obvious that the news was coming.
"I have met Lord Wang and Lord Li!" The little eunuch smiled and bowed to the two of them, then he said, "Our family has come to pass oral orders to Lord Li according to the emperor's will."
Wang Yongji and Li Biao quickly lifted up their clothes and fell to the ground.
"My minister Li Biao, I respectfully invite the sages!"
The little eunuch bowed to the direction of the palace, and then said, "Sage, Gong An!" After saying this, the little eunuch continued, "The emperor's oral instructions, rules are rules."
"A rule is something that people follow, otherwise what will be done if the rules are set."
"Li Biao, everything is handled according to the rules and do not delay or ignore it. No matter who has bad rules, you can arrest them if you should, and punish them if you should. If I know that you are favoritism and abuse of power, it will be clear to see how I deal with you."
