Why did the emperor rebel?

Chapter 362 Chen Zongxian's Backstab

Chen Yi?

Zhu Qiyu was a little surprised, and looked up at the sky, and now it was less than a quarter of an hour before the key was released from the palace gate.

See you at this time, why are you in such a hurry that you can't even wait for tomorrow morning?
After thinking for a while, he waved his hand and said.

"Call in."

Cheng Jing then withdrew, and after a while, he returned to the hall, and behind him was an old man in scarlet robes, none other than Chen Yi, the censor of Zuodu.

"See Your Majesty."

"There's no need to be formal. It's so late. Please see the President. Is there any urgent matter?"

After ordering someone to grant the seat, Zhu Qiyu didn't exchange too many greetings, and asked directly.

Hearing this, Chen Yi immediately sat up straight and said seriously.

"Your Majesty understands that I do have a matter that needs to be reported to His Majesty. Because it involves tomorrow's court discussion, I have to enter the palace at this moment. I also ask Your Majesty to forgive me."

Zhu Qiyu raised his eyebrows, but he became interested and asked.

"It involves court discussions, what's the matter?"

Chen Yi took a deep breath and said.

"Returning to Your Majesty, tomorrow the court will discuss whether to open the exchange market with Tuotuobuhua. Some people plan to entangle the imperial historian of the Metropolitan Procuratorate and the officials of the imperial court to kowtow in public after the end of the court meeting, impeach Wang Wen for making unreasonable claims, deceive the emperor, and exercise power. Wrong country."

Knock Que?

Zhu Qiyu was a little surprised, but not too surprised.

Someone was making small moves behind the scenes, and Shu Liang had already reported this. What he didn't expect was that this group of people dared to be so bold.

Leaning forward, Zhu Qiyu asked calmly.

"Who? How did the general constitution know?"

This time it was Chen Yi who was a little surprised. You know, knocking on the que is not a trivial matter.

If you are not careful, it will cause serious political incidents and cause confrontations between monarchs and ministers.

No matter who it was, it would be difficult to keep calm in the face of a large group of courtiers.

The Son of Heaven would not be ignorant of the seriousness of this matter, but when he heard such news suddenly, he still remained expressionless.

Chen Yi couldn't help but have a deeper understanding of the emperor's determination.

But at the moment he has no time to take care of it.

After pondering for a moment, Chen Yi stood up, paid respects, and said.

"Your Majesty, I beg your forgiveness. The person who planned this matter was Luo Tong, the censor of the left deputy capital. The reason why I was able to know about this matter was that in the afternoon, Luo Tong came to the door in person and lobbied the minister, hoping that the minister would be able to come to the court in the afternoon." Tomorrow, when you knock on the gate, you will be their leader."

There was a moment of silence in the hall, which made Chen Yi a little nervous.

To be honest, he came here today with a lot of determination.

Although starting from his own heart and principles, he came here to inform the emperor about this matter in advance, with a clear conscience.

But to put it bluntly, his behavior is just a whistleblower.

Although he has his own principles, it does not prevent him from wishing for a successful career.

When it comes to officials at his level, everyone's official voice and ability are not much different. In many cases, what plays a decisive role is the image in the heart of the emperor.

So he wasn't sure if what he was doing now would make the emperor think he was a duplicitous and unreliable person.

But only for a moment, Chen Yi heard the first Lun sound coming down.

"You don't have to be like this, sir. When your father was around, he praised you many times for his upright character and his ability to abide by the way in his heart. After I ascended the throne, I also recognized this very much. What you do must be reasonable. I definitely have no doubts." Heart, sir, please."

A very important ability for an excellent superior is to be able to understand what the people below are thinking.

Therefore, seeing Chen Yi being so generous, Zhu Qiyu immediately understood what he was worried about. He not only comforted him with gentle words, but also changed his address from a relatively distant chief constitution to a relatively close gentleman.

Chen Yi relaxed his heart a little, got up and sat down according to the words, but there was a hint of emotion in his eyes.

Although he had been an official since the Yongle Dynasty, but he really entered the center in the last years of Xuande.

So in fact, the emperor he had the most contact with, apart from the one in front of him, was the Supreme Emperor who was far to the north.

Even though he knew it was disrespectful, sometimes Chen Yi couldn't help but compare the two.

The difference is simply too great!

It was the one from Yibei who was already furious when he heard the news, not to mention he couldn't see it, even if he could detect it, he would not take into account the little uneasiness in his subordinates' hearts.

But today, not only can he immediately notice his abnormality, but also calm his mind in a different way.

What to say, "The former emperor once praised Mr. for his upright character and his ability to abide by the way in his heart."

Chen Yi felt like a bright mirror in his heart, ninety-nine percent of these were lies.

It's not that Chen Yi is not confident in himself. During the Xuande period, although he spent most of his time as a governor, it's not that he didn't meet the late emperor when he returned to Beijing to report on his duties.

At that time, his official position was not considered prominent, and the late emperor did not praise him in public.

In private, it is not impossible, but even if there is, it is absolutely impossible for the Majesty in front of him to know.

Not to mention that when the late emperor passed away, this majesty was only ten years old, even in this majesty's capacity, the late emperor would never talk about anything related to the foreign court in front of him.

So when the Son of Heaven said this, [-]% of it was just to reassure him.

After realizing it, Chen Yi didn't panic anymore, sat down peacefully, and spoke.

"The former emperor's false praises made me feel ashamed and dare not take it."

"Sir, you don't need to be humble." Seeing him like this, Zhu Qiyu also showed a smile on his face. This section was considered to be over, and he continued: "This matter is important, please explain it in detail, sir."

Chen Yi bowed his head, and after sorting out his words, Fang opened his mouth to speak.

"Today I was taking a rest in the mansion. In the afternoon, Luo Tong came to the door and first asked me about his attitude towards the mutual market. I didn't doubt him, so I talked about the mutual market. This was also the case in previous years, but in practice, there are many disadvantages. Kuang Daming now has a special relationship with Mongolia, and this matter needs careful consideration."

Zhu Qiyu was listening and couldn't help smiling.

What he just said was not all lies, the former emperor's praise was false, but his evaluation of Chen Yi was exactly his own opinion.

Chen Yi has his own principles.

The matter of the mutual market has been raging in Beijing these days, and it is impossible for Chen Yi to fail to see that there is Zhu Qiyu's instruction behind this matter.

But he was still generous, expressing his disapproval attitude without hesitation in front of Zhu Qiyu.

"Your Majesty, the mutual market is not a simple transaction, and the risk is quite high, not only the safety of the military and civilians of the mutual market, but also..."

However, when Chen Yi said this, he almost confiscated it. It wasn't until he found that the emperor was staring at him with great interest that he realized that he had strayed from the topic, smiled embarrassingly, and turned back again.

"In short, I am opposed to this matter. This matter is not a secret. When I was in the Metropolitan Procuratorate, I discussed this matter with many colleagues. Luo Tong agreed with me at the time, and then mentioned Wang Wen made good claims, and reached a mutual market agreement with Tuotuobuhua privately."

As he spoke, Chen Yi relayed exactly what Luo Tong said to him at that time.

"...Such bold and reckless actions, blinding the king's generation, and stealing the position of the heavenly official are really a shame to our generation. Your Excellency, we bear the responsibility of the constitution. How can we sit idly by and ignore such rebellious things?"

"...Nowadays, the people in the Metropolitan Procuratorate are excited, and the ministers in the court are also dissatisfied with this matter. It's a pity that only the head of the royal censor is qualified to participate in the early court. I wish I could speak directly to His Majesty."

"...Don't worry, Mr. Zongxian, many colleagues in the court have already made plans. As long as Wang Wen and other people who steal the country and harm the emperor, confuse black and white, and force the mutual market, all colleagues will gather outside the Meridian Gate and ask to see His Majesty. It will definitely return to the court, and the universe will be bright and bright."

"...It's just that although we have the heart of serving the country and admonishing the emperor, we are afraid that the officials will be low-ranking and will not be able to see the sky. The Hanlin lineage, Gao Cifu has already planned to come forward to express his feelings. Officer, how can you fall behind others?"

"Therefore, Luo has been entrusted by his colleagues, and please, Mr. President, be sure to come forward to preside over the overall situation tomorrow."

　Supplementary plan (3/23)
