- After the dynasty dispersed, most of the courtiers left the Meridian Gate and dispersed outside the palace. Only a small group turned to the Huiji Gate in the east to attend the court meeting in the Wenhua Hall.
Today, Li You is among this small group. The difference from others is that others directly enter the palace to wait for His Majesty's arrival. And he was waiting outside the hall. He was not the one to vote for him now. For him, the Wenhua Hall was a place he was not allowed to enter.
But he was not the only one waiting, there were also acquaintances accompanying him, but it was Sun Yijiang, the imperial censor of the Imperial College and the censor of the Fujian Province, and the vice president of the newspaper.
After Li You said hello, he stood silently. I secretly thought to myself, what is the reason for summoning them to the temple today?
After thinking about it, it was probably because of his impeachment for "officials doing business." Otherwise, there would be nothing else to do with him, an idle official, recently.
Every time there is a court meeting, there must be more than one thing going on. It¡¯s Li You¡¯s turn. He doesn¡¯t know when it will be, but he has to wait patiently no matter how long it takes. Officials have no freedom in the face of rules.
I don¡¯t know how much time passed, but Li You was bored and was about to chat with the Jinyi guards on duty in the corridor. Suddenly he heard the Jinyi guards in the palace summoning: "Summon Shi Lun, Li You, Sun Yijiang and others into the palace!"
The three people quickly tidied up their clothes and walked towards His Majesty Dan in the palace to pay homage to the Emperor. After being given a flat death, I heard the Holy Voice inquire: "What was the origin of Honglu Temple Youhe's destruction of the official post that day? Was it intentional? The three of you, including Qing, were all present and can recount the situation at that time."
So that¡¯s what happened! Li You was surprised. He already had new ideas about You Shaoqing's matter, but before he had time to communicate with others, he didn't expect that he would come to the palace to discuss the matter now. The emperor and the big guys were too busy, so they discussed this trivial matter seriously in the palace.
It is said that the day before yesterday, the Ministry of Personnel prepared a list of candidates for this election and submitted it to the palace. This list actually arranged for Mr. You to be the prefect of Guilin Prefecture in Guangxi.
This, of course, aroused strong dissatisfaction among Yuan Ge Lao. He suddenly felt that he was being despised, so he made a fierce speech to the emperor, wanting to refute the list back to the Ministry of Officials. This is especially true for him, as it is directly related to his face and prestige.
Mr. Yuan Ge's attitude in turn aroused strong dissatisfaction with Zhao Liangren, the Minister of Civil Affairs, who believed that it was a certain Wenhua Palace scholar who was unable to position himself. Grossly interfering in official affairs. The place in Guilin Mansion was too remote, and for a while I couldn't find a suitable candidate with sufficient qualifications who wouldn't offend anyone. Just when You He came knocking on the door, I took advantage of Master You to fill the hole.
So, unexpectedly, because of one You Shaoqing as the trigger, the frequent cabinet disputes in the history of the Ming Dynasty were staged on a small scale again.
As mentioned earlier, the official department is the head of the six departments. The responsibilities clearly stated that he was to handle government affairs on behalf of the emperor. The status is different from other ministries. Moreover, it was the only yamen in the outer dynasty that dared to challenge the cabinet. This was also regarded as a traditional program of the Ming Dynasty.
Zhao Tianguan and Yuan Ge Lao each hold their own opinions and refuse to give in to each other. One said, "Your Excellency, you are diligent in your official duties. However, your arrogant and domineering behavior is not careful, and you should put it outside to correct the rules. If you make corrections, you can return to Beijing for use in the future." That's it. The officials were sent thousands of miles away, which is obviously selfish and deliberately seeking revenge."
In the end, the focus was on that day when You He smashed the official documents from the Ministry of Civil Affairs. Did you know the contents of the official documents? Was it intentional or unintentional?
"The two grandpa-level bosses got into an angry fight. The emperor looked left and right and couldn't persuade him. He had no choice but to order other people present to go to the palace to testify today and to speak with facts. If the truth is found, the losing side will naturally have nothing to say.
This is the reason why the trio of Shi Jijiu, Inspector Li and Sun Yushi were called. In a trio. The stone sacrificial wine has the highest level, the most prestigious status, and the oldest age, so he must express his stance first.
Lord Shi is a righteous person and will not openly lie, so he did not hesitate and immediately told the emperor: "It was a pure accident. It was an unintentional mistake, Lord You."
The brand image of Shiji Liquor for many years is placed here. He said that Master You was just an unintentional mistake, and most of the people in the palace already believed it. It seems that You He is not arrogant and domineering with the support of Mr. Yuan Ge.
Mr. Yuan Ge also breathed a sigh of relief. But the problem is that the truth is not necessarily correct, and correct is not necessarily the truth. So you have to listen to what others have to say.
Emperor Jinghe looked at Li You from the throne. Ordinarily, he should be the second person to speak, but the emperor suddenly felt that "this is a sharp weapon and should not be opened lightly." In order to resolve the incident. So he turned to Sun Yushi, another vice president of the newspaper, and asked: "Are you Sun Yijiang? Have you witnessed what happened that day?"
After learning the purpose of his visit just now, Sun Yushi struggled in his heart for a moment. At this time, when he heard the emperor's question, he gritted his teeth and replied: "At that time, Li You once said something about the official affairs of the supervising students. Your Excellency, Yue Yue, passed away first.After blatantly destroying official documents, it is not false to say that he is arrogant and domineering. "
Sun Yushi¡¯s words are very subtle. Comparing them carefully with Shi Jijiu¡¯s words, the literal meaning is not opposite, but it makes people feel that the meaning is the opposite. He is trying to drive away You Shaoqing.
Of course Sun Yushi had enough reasons to drive away this colleague who was also the vice president. First, Mr. Yuan Ge has always had ambitions to be the chief minister. He has not been in harmony with his backers for many years, and there is no need to help Mr. Yuan Ge.
Secondly, he didn¡¯t want You Shaoqing to continue to be the vice president, otherwise when the newspaper was upgraded in the future, there would be another rival competing for the official position. If You Shaoqing is driven away, even if a new vice president is brought in, his qualifications will be slightly worse than his own. Don't underestimate this, it will be enough to affect the issue of regularization in the future.
In the trio of witnesses, the first two meanings are actually opposite. True or false is not important, attitude determines everything. Therefore, we still cannot make judgments and decisions, and we can only rely on what the third person says.
Looking at the third person, all the ministers in the palace cheered up. This is Li You's time, and it is a wonderful event not to be missed. Li You said that he didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He didn't want to be the center of attention at all.
Most people, including Zhao Tianguan, were watching the excitement. Only Mr. Yuan Ge and a few people were anxious. Li You was the instigator of this matter. How could he spit out ivory from his dog's mouth? Jiang Xinyue, the censor of Zuodu, looked at Mr. Yuan Ge and didn't know what to do.
Although Mr. Yuan Ge made up his mind two years ago, he was determined not to come forward in person to have "verbal communication" with Li You, lest the repeated humiliation of his status happen again. But now I have no choice but to resolutely go out and report to the emperor: "In this matter, Mr. Li and Mr. You are both parties involved. Therefore, it is inevitable that he has partiality and cannot be a witness."
What Mr. Yuan Ge said makes sense, but at most it is just a little emotional. Because strictly speaking, the incident happened between Li You and You Shaoqing, so asking Li You to testify would obviously be biased. Even if the Yamen decides the case, Li You cannot be allowed to testify.
At this time, Li You suddenly spoke and also said to the emperor: "I am dissatisfied! Mr. Yuan Ge made unreasonable speculations out of thin air, and concluded that I was biased for no reason. He first designated me as an untrustworthy person. These words are also Can you just say it casually in front of His Majesty? Based on this theory, Mr. Yuan Ge is truly a selfish person, so he said such arbitrary words!"
Yuan Ge¡¯s old words are reasonable, but Mr. Li¡¯s quickness to seize the loophole makes even more sense. Everyone has to admire him. Such reactions and eloquence are indeed astute.
Jinghe and the emperor couldn't help but feel a headache, one wave after another. The matter with You Shaoqing has not calmed down yet. Seeing that Li You and Yuan Ge Lao were about to quarrel over a few words. He was deeply impressed by the history of quarrels between these two people. He remembered that the first time Li You quarreled in the court was when he and Mr. Yuan Ge were scolding each other.
You can¡¯t stop Li You from speaking. Otherwise, wouldn¡¯t it mean that you agree with what Mr. Yuan Ge said: ¡°Li You is biased?¡± Emperor Jinghe thought about it for a moment and asked, "Li You, you can tell me everything about the situation at that time, as a reference."
Boss Yuan Ge was shocked. If he really wanted Li You to discuss this matter, it would be trivial to confuse right and wrong! He regretted that he spoke with emotion just now, and Li You took advantage of it.
Li You received the emperor's signal and said: "At that time, I had a slight fault between you and Sir You. Later, Sir You made the mistake unintentionally. In fact, as Shi Jijiu said, it was just an unintentional mistake, and it was not Felony.¡±
Once this statement came out, it was beyond everyone's expectation. Is Li You trying to excuse You Shaoqing? I didn¡¯t expect that Li You would be so magnanimous and ignore past grudges. This is the first time in history that Mr. Li has excused his opponent, right?
Mr. Yuan Ge had prepared so many words in his heart, and was about to refute it after Li You, but suddenly he heard Li You helping You Shaoqing to speak, and was stunned for a moment. Could it be that dogs can really spit out ivory from their mouths?
Zhao Tianguan, the Minister of Personnel, was also very confused. Although the fate of You Shaoqing was not a matter of life and death for him, if others dared to go back on their word like this, he would definitely be thrown into the cold palace.
¡°However, Zhao Tianguan knew Li You very well and knew that Li You would not take the wrong target out of trust. These words are definitely well-prepared, and they definitely have their own reasons, but it¡¯s not clear what their purpose is at the moment.
Li You took advantage of others' shock and secretly gave Zhao Tianguan a look. There was nothing we could do, it happened too suddenly, and there was a lack of sufficient communication and preparation before, so we could only be shocked even by ourselves.
Emperor Jinghe, who had been having a headache for a long time, was overjoyed. This Li You was really considerate of the emperor's heart and knew how to put himself in a position to put things to rest! Otherwise, with his ability, he would have turned You Shaoqing and Yuan Gelao into scum long ago.
Everyone had their own thoughts, and there was a brief silence. Li You felt that he should say something else. Then he turned to Mr. Yuan Ge, cupped his hands, and taught Dundun very sincerely: "I believe that official matters must be public-minded. We must act impartially when doing things and speaking, and we must not be arbitrary because of our own good, so as to avoid misjudgments. It also avoids misunderstanding of others. Does Mr. Yuan Ge think so?"
"That makes sense!" Mr. Yuan Ge replied expressionlessly, under the gaze of all kinds of weird eyes around him.
