“Da Ming Zhengde Emperor New ( Find the latest chapter!
Cao Zhengchun knelt there tremblingly, wondering when Zhu Houzhao said what?
Don’t do bad things, don’t be afraid of ghosts knocking on the door. This is a shame, but I can’t help myself.
Cao Zhengchun has done a lot of bad things, and basically every one of them can be beheaded.
In the past few years by His Majesty’s side, there have been hundreds of deaths just in his hands. If someone impeached him, it is estimated that it would be difficult for him to guard against it.
“Do you think I really believe what that Taoist priest said? You have always regarded me as a fool. The last time I leaked the exam question was clearly you. How dare you argue?”
Cao Zhengchun immediately broke out in a cold sweat, and hurriedly kowtowed to Zhu Houzhao: “Your Majesty, minister, minister…”
He wanted to say that he was wronged, but, this matter, he leaked it out.
Who is in charge of Guozijian?
Not him Cao Zhengchun.
The individuals under his command are all in order to honor him. Where do these people’s money come from?
It can be said that for the imperial examinations held every three years, the money they earn in one year is enough for three years.
Therefore, the interest chain under him is purely a money-making industry.
“Don’t think that your work is flawless, I don’t know, you secretly leaked the test questions to the people who bought and sold the test questions in the Imperial College, and then pretended to find someone to tell fortunes, earn some extra money by the way, and deceive the world’s scholars, what is your intention?”
“Not only did you do this, but you also framed Yang Shangshu. The reason why I asked him to find out the matter was to find out who was in the Guozijian. You’re good. You pretended to save Yang Shangshu’s life, and you really want to bring me down. Ming’s cabinet.”
Zhu Houzhao is very smart. He starts from the overall situation, carefully analyzes Cao Zhengchun’s purpose, and speaks the truth.
This is originally the art of the emperor!
The balance between eunuchs, civil ministers, and emperors, which Emperor Hongzhi played with when he was in power, is now in Zhu Houzhao’s hands, and it remains the same.
“You say, does my analysis make sense?”
“Your Majesty, I know I’m wrong, I know I’m wrong!”
“Yang Shangshu is an authority, of course he can’t see your little Jiujiu. If their cabinet unites against you, I can’t save you!”
Cao Zhengchun’s face was pale: “What Your Majesty taught is that the minister knows that he is wrong and will never dare!”
“I won’t punish you lightly, and you know that I need a cabinet, so I won’t easily dismiss Li Dongyang and Yang Tinghe from office.”
“I treat you all equally. I think this matter is over as it is, and there is no need to investigate further. Go ahead and punish you for half a year as an example!”
Cao Zhengchun left the Hall of Mental Cultivation in a cold sweat.
Zhu Houzhao’s face showed the expression of a cat catching a mouse.
He would not let Cao Zhengchun fall from power. All the ministers in the palace were looking forward to Cao Zhengchun’s fall.
Before the execution of Liu Jin, many people took a fancy to the excitement, and the power of the eunuchs was weakened a lot at once.
This Cao Zhengchun represents the imperial party, and if he were to fall from power directly, it would be tantamount to severing his arms.
After sending Cao Zhengchun and Yang Tinghe away, Zhu Houzhao felt relaxed.
I haven’t felt this way in a long time.
The afternoon sun shone in the hall, full of warmth, and he wanted to go out for a walk.
Zhu Houzhao came to the white marble bluestone square, crossed the Jinshui Bridge, and stood on the city wall overlooking the entire Forbidden City.
The valet **** brought a reclining chair and a coffee table.
Zhu Houzhao was half lying on the reclining chair, half admiring the beauty of the capital,
After the Mid-Autumn Festival, harvest season is everywhere.
The freshly picked tea leaves Zhu Houzhao feeling fresh and tangy.
Zhu Houzhao enjoyed this good tea like never before. Under the slanting light of the setting sun, he actually fell asleep.
Today, the complicated government affairs and the hollowed-out body have finally been completely relaxed today.
There are still many things to face.
The battle in Liaodong is about to start. Although the Jurchens in Jianzhou were few, they not only did not surrender, but also united with other Jurchen tribes to resist the more than 300,000 officers and soldiers of the Ming Dynasty.
Shandong has recently raised a pole army, which is said to be a convenience army, but it is actually burning, killing, and looting. Shandong Governor Chen Wenshou has written to the court more than once, asking for more troops to rescue.
The momentum of this pole is very strong, and it has broken through several cities one after another, and even Jinan Prefecture is also under great threat. Zhu Houzhao feels that suppressing the bandits has become a top priority now.
Then next, bandit suppression should be included in the most important thing at hand recently.
There is also the rebellion of the chieftains in Guizhou. This is already a problem left over from history. During the reign of Emperor Hongzhi, he went to suppress the bandits again and again, but it had no effect.
Although a thousand households were set up in Guizhou, it was of little use. The lives of more than ten thousand soldiers of the Ming Dynasty were buried there. It seems that this matter still needs to be personally involved.
Right now, these three major issues are urgently needed to be resolved.
As for the private sale of arms and artillery by the feudal lord, Yu Huatian should investigate it clearly before making a decision.
At sunset, Zhu Houzhao was woken up by the eunuch. This was the first time he slept outside, and he felt very comfortable! However, this beautiful scene disappeared in just a moment.
Returning to the Hall of Mental Cultivation, Zhu Houzhao saw a picture of a lady on the wall.
He turned around and asked the firefighter, “Whose work is this lady’s painting?”
“Returning to Your Majesty, this is the real work of Song Huizong during the Northern Song Dynasty.”
“Song Huizong?”
Zhu Houzhao knew this person, very talented in literature and art, especially good at calligraphy and painting, and one of this person’s greatest hobbies was to visit brothels, but his life was not good, and it seemed that he died in the hands of the golden man in the end, which is really sad and deplorable!
Zhu Houzhao looked at the picture of a lady, and thoughtfully, if he played with things like Song Huizong and lost his mind, in the end, he would also kill a foreigner.
He didn’t ask the **** to take off the painting, he just thought about it, he couldn’t be Song Huizong, and he couldn’t put his country at the level of disregard, although he had made some mistakes before, but that Teenagers are not romantic?
It is impossible for foreigners to attack so quickly, at least his subordinates are still as strong as clouds.
The ten generals left to him by his father are now guarding the country one by one at the frontiers, but when it comes to important times, they still have to be mobilized and used.
The next morning.
Manchu civil and military are listed in the court class. UU reading www.uukanshu.com
After the fiasco of the civil and military officials, Yang Tinghe, Minister of Rites, was the first to appear and participate in the Guozijian.
Yang Tinghe denounced Guozijian for buying and selling exam questions at the Golden Palace, for favoritism and fraud.
Manchu Wenwu Ting was filled with righteous indignation.
Zhu Houzhao ordered the Ministry of Punishment to investigate the matter thoroughly. Anyone who participated in the sale and purchase of examination questions will be dismissed from office.
Moreover, Zhu Houzhao reiterated the Da Ming law above the court, and anyone who violates the law will be dealt with in accordance with the law.
For a time, the court and the opposition vibrated.
Those who participated in this test question business were also scared out of their minds, but it was too late now.
