Wu Jie thought for a while, thinking of his previous friendship with Chen Hong, and said to Huang Jin, "Mr. Huang, I still want to win over Chen Hong again."
Huang Jin sighed: "The arrow is on the string and has to be fired. Chen Hong has done everything, can he still turn back? Shi Zhenyi is too nostalgic Hey, thousands of troops and horses have been brought here Why can¡¯t such people learn to kill decisively?¡±
Wu Jie's heart was heavy: "Come on, there is such a big incident at the gate of Xiyuan, let me make a final conclusion first."
After saying that, he broke up with Huang Jin and hurried to the gate of Xiyuan.
As soon as I walked to the door, I saw Chen Hong heading upstairs with a few followers.
It turns out that the Xiyuan Gate was originally a two-story city gate building. Although it was not high, it looked magnificent. This style was somewhat similar to the Xinhua Gate in Zhongnanhai in later generations.
"Eunuch Chen." Wu Jie hurriedly chased after Chen Hong before he could go upstairs.
"Oh, it turns out it's Mr. Wu." Chen Hong nodded slightly to Wu Jie, but his tone was no longer as affectionate as before: "Back? Mr. Wu has made great achievements in the southeast this time, and it's easy to be granted the title of Marquis the next day. Our family would like to congratulate you first."
Although Wu Jie had expected that he had different ambitions, he was still startled when he heard what he said without hesitation: "Eunuch Chen, you are so close to me, why are you saying these sarcastic words? They are all doing things for the country and the nation, and they are bound to do so. There is no talk of merit or lack of merit. What is going on outside?"
Chen Hong sneered: "What else can we do to cause trouble? It's just that Hai Rui has been imprisoned. Everyone is unconvinced. These rotten scholars and sour men really regard themselves as vegetables, thinking that scholar-bureaucrats and monarchs can rule the world together. Long live the world. The world belongs to one person, when will it be their turn to talk nonsense?"
"If Mr. Wu still doesn't understand, you might as well go out and have a look."
After saying that, he shouted at his men: "Open the door, we want to see who is outside who has eaten the heart of a bear and the courage of a leopard!"
The door slowly opened, and there was a burst of noise.
Wu Jie looked around. But he saw more than a hundred officials kneeling on the snow outside, all in darkness, all of whom were senior officials of the fourth or fifth rank. They all held a memorial in their hands.
Wu Jie took a breath of air. He had seen the scene of more than a hundred people making trouble before. But this is the first time that all these more than a hundred people are officials above the principal level of each of the six major yamen.
"These people are the backbone of the Ming Dynasty government. They are extremely powerful in terms of ability and aura. They immediately form an invisible force that can almost suffocate people.
The few imperial guards and eunuchs guarding the gate also had pale faces, and each one shouted loudly: "What are you doing, why don't you go back quickly!"
In the past, there have been incidents of collective evacuation of officials, but the scale was much smaller, that is, only twenty or thirty people.
The last time we saw more than a hundred people kneeling outside Xiyuan at the same time was during the "Great Ceremony" event more than 20 years ago.
At that time, Emperor Jiajing was so angry that he killed more than 20 officials with a cane, injured dozens of others, and arrested all the others and sent them to prison. For a time, the Tianlao was overcrowded.
As a close minister of the emperor, Wu Jie couldn't ignore this scene since he saw it. He hurriedly stepped forward to help the imperial emissary of the Inspectorate who was kneeling at the front: "Your Majesty, Mr. General Xian. Your Majesty stayed up all night yesterday. We are resting. What are you talking about, the adults are kneeling here? , attaches great importance to the etiquette of the imperial court, how can you break the rules? Why don't you give the memorial to the lower official first, and the lower official will take it in, wait until your majesty wakes up, and then forward it to the imperial review ¡Ü Mr. Xian for your approval? "
Wu Jie said this kindly, and since he is now well-known among the government and the public, others would have given him some face.
But I didn¡¯t expect that the old man was a high-ranking official at the ministry level, so when did he take Wu Jie, a young man, into his eyes. He became the Imperial Envoy of the Overwatch Council, and all his life he only knew how to find fault with others. It happened immediately.
"Bah!" He spat on the snow, pointed at Wu Jie and cursed: "Wu Shizhen, you are such a treacherous villain. For the sake of fame and fortune, you only know how to please the emperor and ignore justice and justice. You are also a treacherous person. How can you set an example for scholars all over the world when you were born in the top 10 and have read many books by saints and sages? Today you are impeached along with me!"
¡°This treacherous villain!¡± Other officials also yelled.
For a moment, the crowd was so excited that they threatened to tear Wu Jie into pieces.
Someone even shouted loudly: "Wu Jie, what's the secret? If we don't know about the little tricks of these treacherous villains, they must have deducted our lessons. No, I won't see you today."Your Majesty, we won¡¯t leave! "
"Yes, call Hunjun out!"
¡¡
Wu Jie was scolded so hard that he couldn't hold his head up. He didn't expect that the matter would become such a big deal.
Seeing that they even cursed the emperor, Wu Jie also realized the seriousness of the problem and scolded the emperor like this. If it were the Qing Dynasty, he would have been regarded as a traitor and executed by the nine tribes. In other words, the broad-minded Ming Dynasty could tolerate the ministers talking nonsense, but Emperor Jiajing was not an easy person to deal with.
¡°Besides, isn¡¯t it just Hai Rui¡¯s case? If you have something to talk about, why did it get involved with the emperor?
Wu Jie was also a little annoyed: "Sir, it doesn't matter if you want to impeach me. Wu Jie does things based on his conscience and the rules of the court. If I were a treacherous villain, I would only care about my own fame and fortune, and I would not rely on my subordinates' With my background, I can just stay in the capital and earn my qualifications. How can I risk going to the southeast front to sleep in the open air and fight against the Japanese pirates? I just want to share my father's worries and contribute to the country."
Wu Jie's words made sense. When everyone heard this, they thought, yes, Wu Shizhen was a bachelor of the Hanlin Academy and a top scholar. He was a close minister of the emperor. He didn't have to do anything. He just had to stay in the capital. He was expected to join the cabinet in more than ten years. .
Isn¡¯t this how Zhang Juzheng survived?
?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Instead of doing good things, he went to the southeast to lead troops. This Wu Jie is still a person who wants to do things and dares to take responsibility.
"When I thought of this, all the officials who were clamoring just now became quiet.
But now that things have reached this point, it¡¯s impossible for everyone to just leave.
Wu Jie also knew that everyone here was much higher than him in terms of qualifications and official positions, and it was impossible for them to listen to him.
The current plan is to appease everyone¡¯s emotions first. As long as everyone's emotions are stable, they won't do anything extreme, and people with good intentions can't fish in troubled waters.
He sighed and said: "My lords, your majesty just stayed up all night, and I'm afraid I won't be able to see you for a while. The weather is so cold, it's not an option for you to kneel here. Otherwise, please come in." Wait in the tower to avoid the wind. I will go to see Your Majesty first, and I will report to you as soon as Your Majesty wakes up. Do you think this is okay?"
Wu Jie decided to settle everyone down first to avoid any trouble. Then he ran to Jiajing to see what the emperor was going to do.
Hearing what he said, several senior officials looked at each other and nodded silently.
Indeed, it is too cold today, and everyone is very old. Many people couldn't stand kneeling in the snow for a long time. If you continue to kneel down like this, everyone will freeze before seeing the emperor.
If it was summer, it would be okay to continue spending like this, but this is not the right day!
He was frozen stiff, and the eunuchs carried him out one by one, and he couldn't resist it!
Seeing that everyone agreed, Wu Jie felt relieved and was about to take the discounts from their hands.
Seeing that the chaotic scene was about to be stabilized by Wu Jie's few words, Chen Hong's face suddenly changed and he said coldly: "The Supervisor of Ceremonies will not accept your faults."
Wu Jie was horrified. Isn¡¯t this Chen Hong making trouble?
It seems that Huang Jin is right, this Chen Hong really has different intentions.
He couldn¡¯t help but turned his head and looked at Chen Hong angrily, and said in a deep voice: ¡°Eunuch Chen!¡±
All the officials were in a big uproar.
Someone yelled: "What did you say?"
Chen Hongtie shouted with a livid face: "According to the rules, ministers should submit their proposals to the Department of Communications and Affairs first, and then to the cabinet. If the cabinet does not have a vote, we, the Chief of Ceremonies, will not accept it."
At that moment, someone was angry: "Are there still people in the cabinet doing things now? Everyone is vying for power and profit."
"Yes, the chief assistant has not been on duty for more than ten days. Who can I turn to to draw up the votes?"
Yan Song was about to fall, and his wife had just died, so he didn't go to court at all. According to the rules of the Ming Dynasty, only the chief minister had the power to vote.
The General Secretary of the Supervisory Yuan also erupted. He pointed at Chen Hong's nose and shouted: "What cabinet? What we are impeaching today is the clay Bodhisattva in the cabinet who is completely naked! The country's affairs are very difficult and the court is in chaos. Where is your majesty?"
He turned his head sharply and shouted to everyone: "The country has been raising soldiers for two hundred years, and we have been waiting for the Day of Death for Righteousness. Gentlemen, if we freeze to death today, we might as well show it to the world!"
"Yes, I will kneel down and die on the ground today to be a benevolent and righteous person!"
Chen Hong was furious: "Where is this place that you can mess around with? Isn't it just that I haven't received my salary for half a year? Is it worth such a big fight and is it on the line?"
?He gritted his teeth and shouted to his men in a sinister voice: "Come here, take action and beat us hard! Beat to death these losers who only know how to feed the emperor and don't know anything about being loyal to the emperor!"
At that moment, a group of Dongchang gangsters rushed forward waving wooden sticks and whips, lashing out at the officials with their heads and heads.
"It's a pity that most of these officials are incompetent and indifferent to food and grain. Many of them are old and were beaten to pieces immediately.
??The blood dripped onto the white snow, which was frightening to see.
Many people fell to the ground and wailed loudly.
Wu Jie was stunned by this bloody scene. Among the officials, the largest was a second-grade official, and the youngest was also a fifth-grade official. Chen Hong would hit him whenever he said he wanted to, but he was so cruel. He was so so domineering!
Wu Jie stayed for a long time and then realized that Chen Hong was making things big. Once the conflict between the emperor and the ministers was completely intensified, they could not be separated from each other. After all, if someone in the crowd shouted a slogan to abdicate the emperor, Jiajing had to wonder who was behind the matter.
This Chen Hong does things well. . .
