Chapter 172: Wei Zhongxian's Ability
Zhu Youxiao could not just tell the right and wrong between Wei Dazhong and Chen Jiuchou, and according to the old rules, he would submit it to the Ministry for discussion and then make a revision.
What is amazing is that the one-sided conclusion of the reconsideration of the Ministry and the Court all believe that Chen Jiuchou's argument is incorrect.
Especially the Ministry of Personnel and the Censorate headed by Zhao Nanxing, many people claimed that Wei Dazhong was as tall as a mountain in their replies. Chen Jiuchou said that he was vague and overrepresented by his teacher-student friendship, which was purely nonsense and slanderous jokes.
Zhao Nanxing later submitted a memorial, supporting Wei Dazhong, saying: "Chen Jiuchou's move is ulterior motives and attempts to prevent gentlemen from being friends with others.
In this way, all virtuous people are in panic all day long, and the Ministry of Personnel can no longer select virtuous people for the country!
Chen Jiuchou had no storm, and intended to catch all the wise men in the court. He should have been punished strictly. I thought the emperor was favored by the censors, so please put them aside to encourage the spirit of daring to submit memorials and talk about things."
The emperor's expression became colder and colder, and he suddenly shivered.
Today, the climate is suitable, the temperature is getting warmer, and the palace people generally don’t wear much, so why is the emperor like this?
Seeing that the emperor's expression became more and more cold, Wang Chaofu felt panic and quickly stepped forward to look at him considerately and put on a big flirtatious look.
Zhu Youxiao was in a depressed mood and didn't want to move. He just let out a light "hmm" and stretched out his hand to tighten his clothes.
The people behind the screen cleaned up the warm pavilion and walked out carefully, but still alarmed the emperor who closed his eyes and thoughtful.
"Your Majesty, forgive me..."
The dust was flying in the West Warehouse, falling, and the place of return was uncertain. Only the people who were shaking their bodies and begging for mercy could arouse a little comfort in Zhu Youxiao's heart.
"roll."
With a sound of falling, the people were like being pardoned, and they rolled and crawled, and escaped from the West Warehouse with their hands and feet.
......
Zhao Nanxing's message, which is full of threat, is just the beginning.
Afterwards, the Donglin Party members submitted memorials and tried their best to do their best to serve Wei Dazhong. Xie Yingxiang exonerated his words and made great contributions to Chen Jiuchou, refuting him, and trying to get rid of it as soon as possible.
Chen Jiuchou was naturally unwilling to accept this and submitted a memorial to defend himself several times.
In fact, all officials in the court knew that this time the Donglin Party members were really making excuses and making trouble for nothing.
The imperial court's ministry discussed, the Censorate, the Ministry of Personnel and the eunuch party each had their own opinions. According to the past, this was another major discussion that had been delayed for several days.
However, this time, because the Censorate and the Ministry of Personnel were all chaired by Zhao Nanxing, the process was much faster than before.
How fast is it?
The review began the day before yesterday, and it was finally completed in less than two days. Zhao Nanxing even finished the review. At this speed, even ordinary people saw that they were seeing from the Beijing News, and they also felt that the Donglin Party formed a group and led the review.
The public suddenly made remarks, saying that this reconsideration was more like an argument within the Donglin Party, and it was a formality.
Wei Zhongxian met Wang Chaofu and knew that the emperor was depressed in the Xi Nuan Pavilion that day. At that time, he realized that the emperor was angry.
If you don't do anything, this dragon's arousal will be shocked to his head.
He immediately found Wei Guangwei, Gu Bingqian and other backbone members of the Wei Party, and instructed them to mobilize their respective party members to kill them.
As soon as Wei Zhongxian's intention came out, the Wei party members stopped hiding it. All kinds of rumors were flying everywhere, intending to kill Donglin.
Now, things are getting bigger and bigger, and even Wei Zhongxian's goal has changed.
The eunuch party’s memorials were only a lot more than those of the Donglin Party members. They could not preside over the reconsideration, but they could control the government and make the Donglin Party speechless.
So how to do it specifically?
It’s very simple. Chen Jiuchou, who was once an important official of the Donglin Party, took the lead. Those who should submit memorials and those who should be promoted by the people are lurking among the people.
The details of this reply were revealed and exposed to the public.
Even if the destruction of the eunuch party is seen, it will only have a worse reputation. However, once the Donglin party, who has always established a clear-flowing character, will undoubtedly die.
Wei Guangwei and Chen Jiuchou were once important officials in Donglin. They each drafted a memorial, which made a clear statement about the relationship between the ministers of the Donglin Party and revealed countless violent information.
The key target is Wei Dazhong.
Wei Dazhong was Xie Yingxiang's teacher, so he and Zhao Nanxing and other Donglin Party members strongly recommended the latter as the governor of Ningxia. This is one of them.
In the memorial, Wei Guangwei pointed out that Wei Dazhong had no one in his mouth and often said one thing:
"When I was young, my family was poor and I took self-study as a student. Because of my talent, I was appreciated by Mr. Jing Yi and became a teacher."
Mr. Jing Yi in this sentence is Gao Panlong.
Wei Dazhong was honored by this, and the Donglin Party members also brag about it. At first glance, there seemed to be no big problem.
However, Wei Guangwei continued to dig deeper with his own experience in the exam.
In the 44th year of Wanli, Wei Dazhong, who was already 41 years old, finally passed the imperial examination. In this way, the Donglin Party members even praised him as a late bloomer...
Then the question is, if Wei Dazhong really became a student as he said, and was valued by Gao Panlong, he would be a little prodigy, and it would be so hard to get a Jinshi exam.
It makes sense if you look at who was hosting the exam at that time.
Not being beaten, it was just Gao Panlong and Zhao Nanxing!
After that, Wei Dazhong's career was rising all the way is not very strange.
Not only Wei Dazhong can find out, but many so-called great sages who came from their early careers were extremely frightened to think about it carefully!
This is just what Wei Guangwei said, and Chen Jiuchou also has a new drama.
Wei Dazhong's teacher Gao Panlong was a disciple of Zhao Nanxing in his early years, and Zhao Nanxing actually had letters with the magistrate of Jiangjia County Xie Yingxiang.
The roads in the Donglin Party are very chaotic, but there are traces to follow.
Wei Zhongxian knew about these things. He had already figured out clearly, but why did he not take action?
First, there is insufficient evidence and not all public opinion in your own hands. Second, the time is not ripe and it is useless to say it.
To deal with the Donglin Party, we have to play chess step by step.
Originally this time, Wei Zhongxian just wanted to use Wei Guangwei to attack Wei Dazhong and get the position of governor of Ningxia.
But this matter is bad because of Zhao Nanxing and Wei Dazhong.
I won’t say anything about Zhao Nanxing. He became more and more arrogant after he was also in charge of the Censorate. Wei Zhongxian asked himself that he could not catch up with him. Wei Dazhong also had no slight or heavy words and did things, and he was a young man!
According to the news from Wang Chaofu, the emperor was already a little angry, so Wei Zhongxian naturally had to express himself quickly, and at worst he could defeat the death.
Wei Zhongxian did not take action, and he had to hurt Donglin as soon as he tried.
For example, this time, if Zhao Nanxing and Wei Dazhong were completely destroyed, Wei Zhongxian would not stop.
Wei Guangwei and Chen Jiuchou revealed that the so-called ins and outs and outs and consequences can all be connected.
What the Donglin Party is good at is to always associate a small matter with the foundation of our ancestors and exaggerate it.
This time, Wei Zhongxian also followed the same trick and gave them a beautiful counterattack. After the news broke, he immediately signaled the cabinet minister Gu Bingqian and the Minister of War Cui Chengxiu to submit a memorial.
These two men have long been hard-core eunuchs. They have deeply understood their intentions and said in their memorial that these officials who sheltered each other in the reconsideration and responded to each other have one thing in common, all of which are from Donglin.
Generally, at this time, the Donglin Party must submit a memorial to defend itself.
Wei Zhongxian had long expected that Gu Bingqian and Cui Chengxiu would list another group of officials who were arrested in the memorial to come out and block their mouths.
For example, Yang Lian, Gao Panlong, Ye Xianggao, and many ministers who were still in court all despised the emperor's youth and formed cliques to abdicate power.
Without exception, these people are also from Donglin.
If this is not punished, the "officials from Donglin" will be afraid that in the future, the foundation of their ancestors will be in danger and the country of the Ming Dynasty.
Gu Bingqian, Cui Chengxiu, Wei Guangwei, Chen Jiuchou and other so-called "eunuch party" were submitted one after another. Although the number of people in Donglin party members such as Wei Dazhong and Zhao Nanxing was not as large as that of the Donglin party members, it had the final result.
Chapter completed!
