Haisheng Mingdi

Chapter 902

"I want to face the saint!"

Huang Zongyan gritted his teeth.

Huang Zongxi, who had just been promoted to governor of Zhili and had not yet left Beijing to take up his post in Baoding, took his brother's hand and asked him to sit down, "Calm down first."

Huang Zongyan was very angry, he could not accept this will.

It wasn't long after he was promoted to Zuo Fudu Yushi, and he was about to impeach Ma Shiying and Ruan Dacheng, but he didn't expect to impeach himself, but he got himself expelled and exiled from Wusi.This huge blow made him unbelievable and unacceptable.

His father is one of the Seven Gentlemen of Donglin. He studied with his elder brother Liu Zongzhou when he was young, and later joined Fushe. In the Qing Dynasty, the emperor voted for the Northern Expedition, how many meritorious service has he made, and he was expelled and exiled just because he wanted to impeach Ma Shiying?

"It is rumored that the saint is sick and confused, I think it is true."

"Speak carefully." Huang Zongxi got angry.

"Who hasn't done anything for the court? Thunder and rain are all due to your grace."

"But as the censor of the left deputy capital, it is my duty to play rumors."

Huang Zongxi sighed, "I persuaded you before, don't impeach Ma Ruan and the others, but you refused to listen. Now the saint is furious, but you say that the saint is confused. You are completely confused. You are the censor, but you impeached Ma Shiying What is Ruan Dacheng? Is it forming a party for personal gain, taking bribes, or conspiring to rebel?

do you have proof?
You have no evidence, what are you impeaching?
Do you think it is still in the Chongzhen Dynasty, and you can bombard the ministers at will by posting a post?Without evidence, you are framed and will be devoured by rebellion. "

Although Huang Zongxi is still young, he is much more mature and stable than his brother Zongyan. Perhaps it is related to the different experiences of the brothers over the years. Huang Zongxi has always been in charge of the local government. Presided over one party's military administration, and Huang Zongyan has been serving as an admonisher in Taiwan from the supervision of the censor to the service center to the left deputy capital censor. He is a speech officer himself, and his duty is supervision.

Huang Zongxi has become more pragmatic. He is no longer the backbone of the restoration of the society. He no longer blindly talks about the same party and fights against dissidents. He pays more attention to the people's livelihood, how to make a place more stable, richer, and let the people They can have food and clothing, and even increase the education of the people and so on.

Huang Zongyan is Liu Zongzhou's favorite student. He has been admonishing him in Taiwan for many years. His paper and pen are like knives, and his tongue is like an arrow, but he still has his former sect views inevitably.

This time he impeached Ma Ruan and others along with Wu Weiye. The main crime he attacked them was that they often recruited magicians, talked about astrology, speculated about their fortunes, and said that their collection of dramas and poems slandered the sages and satirized the world. It is also said that they employ private individuals, form cliques for personal gain, embezzle and accept bribes, and allow their clansmen to take nothing by chance and so on.

If Ma Ruan is not killed, the universe will be unclear, and the court will not be upright. He even proposed that the case of rebelling against the party should be prosecuted again and should not be pardoned.

But none of what he said has any evidence. Anyway, there are rumors. He said he heard such rumors, but he couldn't tell who he heard them from.

This kind of party struggle old routine, the emperor does not eat.

He didn't even say that he would stay in the middle like the prince, but directly slapped the face severely and exiled the three leaders.

A Guozijian sacrificial wine and a bachelor of the Imperial Academy, a left deputy capital censor and an assistant minister of the Prime Minister's Office, a scholar of the Imperial Academy and a scholar of Zhan Shifu You Yude, just like this one stick to knock down the dust.

They were all bewildered.

Huang Zongyan couldn't accept it. This hero who is not yet 40 years old is a master who studies the Book of Changes. He is also very proud of his official career. It is really hard to accept such a sudden blow now.

But Huang Zongxi asked him to accept the order, and then hurried to Lhasa.

"You can stay there for a few years at ease, calm down first, and study hard over there." The implication is that the crown prince is about to succeed, and our Huang family has not collapsed. You are also the uncle of the crown prince's concubine, and so do I. It is still the governor of Zhili, and he will definitely join the cabinet in the future, and he will definitely be able to pick you back in the future, and it is even possible for the official to return to his original post.

At this time, you can't contradict the emperor.

"Why?" Huang Zongyan couldn't understand.

Huang Zongxi patted his brother's arm, "Because we are officials of Yuan Congxun, or relatives, especially you and I were members of the Socialist Party, and the sage has just dealt with the case of the guilty minister, so you are impeaching Ma Shiying, Ruan Dacheng and others at this time. , and proposed to resume the reverse case, do you think it is appropriate?"

Huang Zongxi didn't expect the emperor to have such a serious reaction beforehand, but now he has come to his senses all of a sudden, brothers have committed a big taboo.

Even if they are Yuanxun or foreign relatives, how could the saint allow all the court to be Yuanxun faction?

The brother was not wronged, he failed to understand the emperor's situation and intentions.

The emperor ascended the throne and became the prince of Zen. At this time, the emperor's arrangements cannot be disrupted.

If the emperor really intended to deal with Ma Ruan and others, he would have followed Hong Chengchou and others to deal with them before.

After talking with the brothers for a long time, Huang Zongyan gradually calmed down a bit. He is also a smart person, and the brothers can understand a little bit, but it is still a bit unacceptable.

But Huang Zongxi still persuaded him to go to Lhasa immediately after receiving the order. The Huang family will send someone to take him there, and he will be taken care of there. The weather is cold, but when you think about the end of Chen Zilong, Hou Fangyu and others, think about the end of Qian Qianyi and Hong Chengchou, it is not worth mentioning.

After all, the Huang family is still there, the Huang family will not fall, and Huang Zongyan's deportation and exile this time will not be serious.

"I implicated my elder brother and implicated the Huang family."

"What are you talking about?" Huang Zongxi patted his brother's arm, "Let's learn a lot from it."

······
Huang Zongyan, Wu Weiye, and Lu Liuliang were expelled from their nationality and exiled. Ma Luan was promoted to command Tongzhi of Jinyiwei, Prince Xin Nama Shiying, and Ruan Dacheng's granddaughter and grandniece were concubines. For a while, the city of Beijing was very lively.

It made the people in Beijing who like to eat melons very excited.

After all, no one thought that the Huang family and Lu family, who were the heroes of Zhejiang Province and their relatives, would have their teeth broken, and Wu Weiye, who is known as the Emperor Wenzong of the world, would not be impeachable but would be punished instead.

It's really an eye-opener with a knife.

I thought that after the meritorious faction overthrew the capitulation faction, they wanted to strike while the iron was hot to overthrow Ma Ruan and others, but who would have imagined that the ship capsized in the gutter.

It really shocked countless people's jaws.

The three of Huang Zongyan left Beijing quietly, and the guards escorted them to the place of exile. The emperor mercifully exiled them themselves, and did not implicate their wives, children, family in-laws, etc., nor confiscated their property, etc., and even allowed their families to send people to follow them As an escort, you don't even need to wear a shackle, and you don't need to wear prison clothes.

Putting on commoner clothes, they could still set off slowly on horseback and in a carriage. The emperor gave them half a year to go on their way, so there was no rush at all.

It is getting colder every day.

The day when the emperor abdicates is also approaching day by day.

The imperial court was busy with this matter, and the accident caused by Huang Zongyan and others was quickly covered up. At the end of October, all the foreign vassal states of Ming Dynasty had sent high-level missions, such as North Korea, The king of Liu Qiudu came here in person with his queen, his son and his family, and the two shogunates of the Wa Kingdom also sent their generals and their sons with their princes.

Not to mention Mongolia, from Mobei to Moxi to Qingkang, to the Turghut and Nogai Khanates on the coast of the Caspian Sea, the King Khan came early with his family in person.

None of these Mongolian Khan kings who are also the guardians and the titles of county kings dare not come.And those under their respective command who are also deputy governors, deputy Khan of the governor, Nuoyan, Hun Taiji, etc. also came here one after another.

This is no ordinary court gathering.

This year is a special year. The Holy Khan and the Great Emperor want to abdicate to pass on the crown prince. This kind of thing probably won't happen once in hundreds of years.

Even Junggar Chuhuer, who was still in rebellion, sent envoys.

In addition, foreign countries in Nanyang and Central Asia also received invitations from the Son of Heaven early on and sent high-level missions here.

On the land silk road in the northwest and southwest, camels and horses flowed along the Hexi Corridor, the Qinghai-Tibet line, and the Burma line.

The sea route is more lively, Tianjin Port has not yet frozen, a large number of sailboats sailed in, and then changed to canal boats to enter Beijing.

The Beijing-Tianjin Canal was bustling like never before, and the towns on both sides were even more prosperous.

Those missions from foreign countries and feudal vassals are also trading groups, bringing a large amount of goods. All very hot.

"Tsar Alexei sent a special envoy, Princess Ekaterina, to lead a delegation, and they have arrived in Tianjin."

"The Mughal emperor Shah Jahan sent a delegation led by Crown Prince Darashuko, and they have already checked into the state guesthouse arranged by Honglu Temple."

"Emperor Abbas II of the Persian Safi Empire also sent a delegation led by the eldest son Suleiman."

"The Ottoman Sultan Muhammad and the Empress Dowager sent a delegation led by the regent Grand Vizier Koprulu Mehmet Pasha's son Koprulu Fazoo Ahmed Pasha."

"King Johan II Kazimierz of Poland and Lithuania sent his Marshal Jeremiah Michal Wisniowitzki with a delegation."

"The Emperor of the Holy Roman Empire, the King of Hungary, the King of Bohemia, and the Archduke Ferdinand III of Austria sent a delegation led by Prince Philip and Princess Maria Anna."

"Queen Christina of Sweden sent a delegation led by her cousin Carl Gustav."

"Richard Cromwell, Lord Protector of the English Republic, sent his eldest son, Richard Cromwell."

"The King of France, King Louis XIV of Navarre, and Queen Anne sent a delegation led by Prince Condé."

·······
The emperor had just drank poppy milk, and he was leaning there with his eyes closed, listening to the report from Ruan Dacheng, a scholar of Dongge University. This time, at the invitation of the Emperor Ming, all the major powers in the East and the West have sent important figures to lead a delegation. Their arrival is not only Participating in Zhu Yihai's abdication ceremony is also to discuss with Ming Dynasty the establishment of a national alliance, a national alliance composed of major powers. This alliance focuses on economic and trade cooperation, and is also convenient for communication and mediation of conflicts between major powers.

The western countries that have just finished the 30-year war are still mired in the quagmire. The sudden rise of the eastern powers, especially the emphasis on maritime trade, is attracting all countries, even Poland, Sweden, Tsarist Russia, Mughals, As far as Persia, even Ottoman, Holland, and Spain are concerned, they now have to face Daming directly, because Daming has already connected with them.

This alliance of nations is the first time among countries in the East. If it succeeds, it will have a far-reaching impact, not only for Ming, but also for other countries.
