Chapter 445
Sun Chuanting was a Jinshi in the 47th year of Wanli Dynasty, a veteran in the scholar circles. He was also the Minister of the Ministry of War in the Longwu court, and he was also Sun Chengzong's favorite disciple. The combination of so many titles was enough to attract everyone's attention. Shi Kefa was very surprised.
, how on earth could such a person be deceived by Wen Tiren into coming to Jinling.
No one understands the current situation better than Shi Kefa, Jinling vs. Beijing, Yongli vs. Longwu. It seems that Nanming in Jinling has an overwhelming advantage, but Shi Kefa knows that this is just a superficial illusion.
When Emperor Yongle was in Fengtian Jingnan, his territory was not as big as that of the Longwu court. But in the end, he occupied Jinling and became a great emperor.
Shi Kefa once lived in Liaodong and was familiar with many generals of the Liao army. What happened outside Luoyang City was definitely done by Man Gui. If Man Gui is so difficult to deal with, what will happen when the fierce and tiger-like Ao Canghai comes? He is cunning.
The fox-like Yuan Chonghuan is here, what should we do?
These are the two earlier Liao troops that formed an army!
In Dahu Mountain in Montenegro, Shi Kefa had seen Cao Wenzhao's bravery and fearlessness of death. Zu Dashou was also a general who became famous very early. Before he surrendered to the Liao army, he was a local tyrant in Liaodong. Even the Tatars could not do anything to him.
.
Even with such a group of people, Shi Kefa believed that even if all twelve Nanjing Forbidden Army divisions were defeated, they might not be able to defeat even one of their divisions.
Wen Tiren, Zhou Yanru and others don't understand. Ke Shi Kefa is an expert. Entering the battlefield in the age of firearms is not something you can do easily if you have more people.
Weapons! Military system! Plus the training level of the soldiers are all crucial factors.
Although the Nanjing Forbidden Army has a large number of people, they also train frequently on weekdays. But in order to save gun barrels, it would be good if the infantry can shoot twenty or thirty bullets a month. Not to mention the artillery, artillery shells are precious, especially death is expensive.
mortar shells.
We know that good shooters are fed by cannonballs, but Shi Kefa can't afford it. Now that the source of cannonballs from the north has been cut off, he can't even afford it.
On the day Sun Chuanting arrived in Jinling, almost all the court officials went to Yanziji to greet him. Everyone wanted to see what kind of person this famous Ming Dynasty scholar was like, who abandoned the dark side and turned to the bright side.
The Ministry of Rites held a ceremony specifically for Sun Chuanting. When Sun Chuanting got off the boat, he started to blast gongs and drums and firecrackers. Sun Chuanting got off the ferry under the guidance of two junior officials from the Ministry of Rites. Seeing the colorful flags flying in front of him and the huge crowds of people, he turned to the crowd.
Make a bow in return.
"Bo Ya! You want to kill me!" As the main contributor to the rebellion, Wen Tiren, the second assistant to the cabinet, came up to him with a smile.
Today, all the big shots in the imperial court are very considerate. Cabinet Assistant Wen Tiren. Ruan Dacheng, the Minister of Rites, Ma Shiying, the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, Shi Kefa, the Minister of the Ministry of War...! As long as they are the most famous big shots in the court, they are basically here.
If it were anyone else, each of these big guys would be excited and bragging for half a lifetime. Now that there are so many big guys, they will definitely go down in history.
Zhou Yanru had some displeasure on his face. According to the rules, he was a cabinet assistant and belonged to the highest leadership of the cabinet. The first thing he should have said to Sun Chuanting after he got off the boat was that he should have spoken to him. Wen Tiren ran over recklessly, which really broke the rules.
"Cough!" He coughed loudly, but suddenly felt that it was useless. There were noisy sounds all around, and even if he coughed up his lungs, it would not scare anyone.
"Sooner or later I'll have to settle the score with you!" Zhou Yanru muttered viciously, holding his breath secretly.
During these days, Wen Tiren was a little restless. He would go from home to home all day long, either visiting one or inviting someone to dinner. Zhou Yanru saw all this and originally wanted to find an opportunity to kick Wen Tiren away. But this guy happened to have another problem.
After successfully taking down Sun Chuanting, removing Wen Tiren at this time is a bit like killing the donkey. A person must be kind. Zhou Fu has always been a kind person, so he decided to kick out the old bastard Wen Tiren after taking over Sun Chuanting.
"Oh! Just for your pleasure, Boya will introduce to you, this is Mr. Zhou Ge." Wen Tiren still thought of some rules. He led Sun Chuanting to Zhou Yanru and introduced Sun Chuanting to the number one person in Nanming.
.
"Mr. Wen Ge! Brother Zhou was the number one scholar in the 41st year of Wanli. The tutor of that subject was Mr. Gu Xiancheng. Boya Bucai was the scholar in the 47th year of Wanli. The tutor was also Mr. Gu Xiancheng.
, so we can be regarded as fellow disciples. Senior brother, please!" Sun Chuanting saluted Zhou Yanru. This salute was a courtesy between fellow disciples, and Zhou Yanru was very satisfied with this junior fellow apprentice.
"Haha! Zhou was young and frivolous at that time, and I hope my virtuous brother will understand my shortcomings. Now it's better. You and I are brothers in the same palace, and we will work together for Long Live." Zhou Yanru happily helped Sun Chuanting and gave him to Wen Tiren.
A meaningful look.
What makes you crazy! Didn't you expect that the person you worked so hard to get back is my fellow junior.
Wen Tiren's expression was extremely exciting. He did not expect that the mentors of the two men were actually Gu Xiancheng, one of the founders of the Donglin Party. Looking back, Gu Xiancheng did serve as the chief of the Ministry of Personnel in the last years of Wanli. Presumably, these two men
He was his student during that time.
"Haha! I didn't know that you, Boya, are Zhou Fu's fellow disciple. If I had known earlier, Zhou Fu should have summoned you to Aurous Hill." Wen Tiren laughed with a smile.
A cold light flashed in Zhou Yanru's eyes, he was a thousand-year-old fox and no one could talk about Liaozhai. Wen Tiren was mocking Zhou Yanru for not being able to defeat even his own junior brother, and he still needed to personally instigate rebellion.
"Bo Ya, let me introduce other colleagues to you." Wen Tiren actually ignored Zhou Yanru's stern expression and directly led Sun Chuanting to introduce Ma Shiying, Ruan Dacheng and others.
Among these people, some Sun Chuanting knew him and some he didn't. Anyway, they all greeted him with hands!
With a combination of luck and grinding his teeth, Zhou Yanru managed to suppress his anger. He vowed to look good to Wen Tiren after today.
As Sun Chuanting greeted the important officials of the imperial court, he had already noticed Wen Tiren's excessive enthusiasm. Logically speaking, Zhou Yanru should introduce him to him.
After being introduced one by one, everyone got on the sedan chair one after another to welcome the team as they marched toward Jinling City!
No matter how rampant Wen Tiren and Zhou Yanru were, Yongli Emperor Zhu Yujian was still the emperor of the Southern Ming Dynasty. In the Linhu Palace on the bank of Xuanwu Lake, courtiers gathered together, waiting for the emperor to summon Sun Chuanting, the most famous official who had recently returned.
"Long live the imperial meeting!" Although there was no big court meeting today, people came in surprisingly large numbers. Imperial court elders, officials from the six ministries, nobles who came out of the capital to escape the military disaster, etc. Many times, the big court meeting did not come so neatly.
Pass.
"I love you! I'm so relieved that you can abandon the darkness and turn to the light!" After all, Zhu Yujian is also a child of the prince's family, and etiquette is learned from childhood. When facing Sun Chuanting, his words were warm and friendly. He did not damage the royal dignity, but also maintained the utmost dignity. It shows how much he values Sun Chuanting.
"Long live thanks!" Sun Chuanting bowed and straightened his back.
"Long live! I have this memorial!" Sun Chuanting had just straightened his back when a voice suddenly rang out.
Everyone turned around in surprise and looked at the source of the sound.
Who is so ignorant that he came out to write a memorial at this time? Many people looked at this idiot with contempt and wanted to be famous. He probably won't see it at the next court meeting.
The people who left work walked to the center of the hall, and everyone's expressions became bright. This is Zhao Sui from the Ministry of Rites!
Ji Shizhong from the Ministry of Rites is just a sixth-rank official, and he is not considered a big shot in the court. But this sixth-rank Ji Shizhong is not simple, because he has a very good father named ** Xing.
** Xing, one of the founders of the Donglin Party. At least half of the people in this hall are his disciples and disciples! There is still some affection for the descendants of the teacher.
"Zhao Aiqing, what's your story?" Zhu Yujian's face showed no surprise at all, but was unexpectedly calm.
"I want to impeach someone!" As soon as Zhao Sui's words came out, everyone immediately started whispering among themselves.
Today everyone came to welcome Sun Chuanting, but unexpectedly Zhao Sui came out to impeach him. This is a death sentence impeachment!
As an official in the Ming Dynasty, there were almost no people who could not be impeached. The charges for impeachment ranged from spitting to issues related to the relationship between men and women. Anyway, everyone wanted to tell the emperor that I did not get it in vain. Salary, I still work. With this kind of impeachment, the impeached person is not angry, and the impeacher is not burdened. Maybe after the court, we will meet up to drink and have sex with prostitutes. We all hang out in the court. This is mutual understanding. category.
But to impeach someone in this situation is to completely break one's face. This kind of impeachment is called death impeachment by people in the court. It is the so-called death-to-death impeachment!
Who is it that made Zhao Sui stand up and impeach him to death? Everyone is curious!
"Zhao Sui! Today is not a meeting of the imperial court. If you have ammunition, you can hand it over directly. Long live the rules. We are here to greet Mr. Sun today. Please step aside." Zhou Yanru had an ominous premonition.
He is a cabinet minister, and his political acumen is very keen. If Zhao Sui dares to stand up at this time, there must be someone behind him to instruct him. Who does he want to impeach? Who is the person behind him? Wen Tiren? Ma Shiying? Or the Ruan Dacheng whose eyes never fall in one place?
Years of political wisdom told him to suppress this matter first.
"Who does Zhao Aiqing want to impeach?" Zhu Yujian's words made Zhou Yanru's heart sink. When did this puppet dare to screw him? When he looked at it, Zhu Yujian had a majestic look on his face, sitting upright with a royal bearing. On the high dragon chair.
"I want to impeach the cabinet minister, Zhou Yanru, the great scholar of Jianji Palace." As soon as Zhao Sui said these words, everyone took a breath of cold air. It seemed that ten thousand flies had entered the Linhu Palace, "buzz" "buzz" "The sound almost lifted the roof off.
"You...!" The muscles on Zhou Yanru's face twitched, and now he wanted to kick this arrogant person to death.
"Oh! Do you know that Mr. Zhou is my assistant, and you are guilty of impeaching an important official of the imperial court for no reason?" Zhu Yujian's majestic voice rang out, and everyone stopped and looked at the young emperor.
"I only know about the imperial court, but I don't know that loyalty to the emperor and patriotism is a sinful act." Zhao Sui's answer was so powerful that Zhou Yanru's breath was choked.
"Okay! Tell me why you want to impeach Mr. Zhou? If it is untargeted...!"
"I impeached the boss of Zhou Pavilion for three crimes and twelve minor crimes.
One of the biggest crimes! Forming cliques for personal gain, long live contempt.
The second biggest crime! Privately recruiting an army with evil intentions.
The third major crime! Embezzling state funds and using public funds for private purposes.
...! Twelve minor sins, disorderly conduct and corrupt life.
All of the above-mentioned items are verifiable, and my emperor, who knows thousands of miles, will definitely not let such a young person continue to occupy the temple."
Zhao Sui was considered a capable person, and he was surprised to find Zhou Yanru with a laundry list of charges. The charges ranged from conspiracy to rebellion to personal style issues. Anyone who heard these charges would be scared to death.
"That's nonsense!" Zhou Yanru was furious. How many more women do I sleep with, and you don't care? I have money at home, so buying a few singers is not a big deal? I didn't sleep with your wife!
"Master Zhou is such a powerful official!" Wen Tiren said sadly.
Zhou Yanru's eyes immediately fell on Wen Tiren's face. That's right! The bastard behind him was this old boy. He had no enmity with Zhao Sui, and he would never have been so bold as to impeach the cabinet minister without anyone's instructions.
"Mr. Wen Ge, you did a good job." Zhou Yanru shouted, and there was silence in Linhu Palace. Everyone stretched their necks to watch the peak showdown between several big guys.
"Lord Zhou roared at the hall like this, but did he ever take Long Live seriously? I see, there is no need to check the one above that Zhao Sui deceived you." Ruan Dacheng stood up with a smirk.
"Ruan Dacheng! What benefits did Wen Tiren give you?" Zhou Yanru's finger almost touched the tip of Ruan Dacheng's nose.
"I am devoted to the country, and I can represent the sun and the moon!"
"Bah...!" Zhou Yanru wanted to punch Ruan Dacheng in the face that didn't deserve a beating. How could you, a guy like you, have the nerve to say you are dedicated to serving the country? Just thinking about it, he wanted to do it, and grabbed Ruan Dacheng's neck collar with one hand.
The other hand raised his fist and wanted to do it.
"Master Zhou, please pay attention to official etiquette!" Ma Shiying grabbed Zhou Yanru's fist. As a military attache, he naturally had stronger hands than Zhou Yanru.
"And you? Come here, Shi Kefa. Arrest them all!" After struggling twice, he didn't break free.
Zhou Yanru was completely angry now! He shouted at Shi Kefa loudly, which seemed a bit like letting the dogs out.
Shi Kefa is also Zhou Yanru's last trump card. No matter how much trouble you make, it will be useless. The barrel of the gun is in my hand, so I won't be afraid of you flying into the sky.
No one answered! Shi Kefa stood on the bench without saying a word, like a wood carving made from clay.
"Shi Kefa! What are you waiting for?" Zhou Yanru was shocked and angry because his veins were exposed, and his last trump card actually failed.
"Master Zhou, everyone in Linhu Palace is a long-lived loyal minister. Who do you want to arrest? It's better to talk to our family whether the charges that Mr. Zhao impeached you are really useful." Cao Huachun said.
