Chapter 311
Xu Jingchang held the civil evaluations for various ministries in his hand, and handed them to several ministers.

"This is the first time I have done it, and there are still some things that are not enough. You guys should take it back and think about it carefully, reflect on yourself, and improve if there is any. This is the end of today's discussion. I will go back first. "

Xu Jingchang walked outside with big strides, and even stretched himself, very comfortable.

It's just that the few remaining courtiers looked at each other, and they were dying!
The big guys knew in their hearts that they were using the earthquake as an issue to attack the prime minister for being unethical, and the target was Xu Jingchang, the envoy in charge.

This trick has a long history and is often used frequently.

After all, things like Tianchang will not be clear for a while, and in this case, there is room for those who are interested in manipulating them.Still the same sentence, a toad can get on people's feet even if they don't bite people.

With Xu Jingchang's virtue, making him feel uncomfortable is the common wish of all people of insight in the world.

Among other things, if God really sent down a thunder and chopped Xu Jingchang, the capital would definitely set off firecrackers. Even if you borrow money, you still have to buy some water and wine.

It's just that if you hate Xu Jingchang, you hate them. People like them haven't lived enough. If they fight Xu Jingchang directly, the consequences will be very tragic.

Did you see it, now people have made a move!

"Looking at the past dynasties, even Anshi, the king of obstinacy, said that the sky is not to be feared, but he also folded on the sky and let it go. This is an unsolvable move, but he did not expect that our Duke Dingguo has cracked it." Xia Yuanji sighed in a low voice, and he raised his head, "Jian Tianguan, now that things have come to an end, my household department has such a bad reputation, why don't you just let me go home?"

"Absolutely not!" Jian Yi grabbed Xia Yuanji, "We are two grasshoppers on the same rope. If something happens to your household department, my official department will not be able to get better... What's more, this time Xu Jingchang took the investigation The result gave us a chance to make amends, and everything is still slow, so there is no need to be so pessimistic."

Xia Yuanji hummed: "How slow? Can we catch the person behind the flames?"

Jian Yi smiled slightly and said, "It may not be impossible!"

Xia Yuanji was startled, and suddenly became interested, "I said Jian Tianguan, what are you going to do?"

Jian Yi said: "This kind of thing, I can't do it, and Ding Guogong can't do it, so he can hold the handle of all of us... Once the six ministers and nine ministers are determined to do something, no one will be able to do it." Can stop it!"

Now Xia Yuanji is in good spirits... Jian Yi said a very important thing, even if he is as strong as Xu Jingchang, he can't really control the overall situation.

It might be a joke to take out any yamen alone... But once all the government offices are united, with the will of the Ming court, one thing will be implemented.

Then Taishan will be overwhelming, unstoppable!
Xu Jingchang also understood what he meant. If you don't help me solve my troubles, just read my jokes, and I will continue to investigate folk reviews and drag you all into trouble.

At that time, the chief culprit for the change in the sky will not be the Tongzheng Envoy, but you courtiers.

How about a super double?

Such things as changes in the sky are illusory. In comparison, folk reviews are much more real.Fighting against Xu Jingchang is definitely like killing 100 enemies and losing [-] million yourself.

I had no choice but to bow my head.

Xia Yuanji came out from the Ministry of Officials and immediately contacted the Ministry of Punishment. Lu Zhen came back from the Hall of Martial Arts and was also thinking about this matter. Hearing what Xia Yuanji said, he immediately agreed.

"Sanfa Division, go all out."

Xia Yuanji then greeted other ministries, and Jian Yi was also making arrangements.

Almost at the same time, Jin Yiwei also took action. The huge Ming Dynasty had never worked together like this.

At this point, you will understand what real power is!
Power means that if you say a word, you need someone to do things for you, and you must have strong organizational and mobilization capabilities. Otherwise, no matter how high the official position is, if you cannot master the administrative system, it will be an empty shell.

Cao Shuang respected Sima Yi as Taifu and seized the power to record the affairs of the minister. This is the routine.

Although you are a high-ranking Taifu, but the Prime Minister is in the Shangshutai, without the title of recording the affairs of the Shangshu, you can't command the world.

This rule applies throughout the ages.

Zhu Digui is the emperor, and when a decree comes down, the corresponding yamen must undertake it... As for what can be done, it depends on the thoughts of the officials below.

The big guy can do his best, or he can be perfunctory.

This kind of thing will not change because the emperor is anxious or not...

But this time was different, Xu Jingchang held the lifeblood of each department in his hands, the ministers worked harder than ever, and the people below did not dare to be perfunctory.

It only took less than ten days to lock in a chief of the Ministry of War, named Li Zhen!

A lot of news spread from him, and some people said that Li Zhen was going to impeach him and demanded Xu Jingchang's dismissal.

"Go to prison!"

Without Xu Jingchang's action, Jian Yi wrote the letter, and then Lu Zhen asked the people from the Ministry of Punishment to take Li Zhen down.

It is said that the prison is terrifying, but it is the most senior criminal yamen.The methods used by the Ministry of Punishment are even more terrifying than those of Jin Yiwei.It's just that people usually don't bother to show it.

When we are the nouveau riche of Jinyiwei?
Can't wait for the whole world to know that they are unreasonable!

But this is different, you have to show some real skills.

"Hit me hard!"

Eighteen instruments of torture were all taken out.

"Li Zhen, who told you to slander the court?"

"It's the two saints of Confucius and Mencius! It's the principles of heaven!"

"beat!"

Rawhide whips rained down, shredding clothes and tearing apart flesh.

After a full quarter of an hour, he asked again: "Li Zhen, who told you to slander the court and Duke Ding?"

"Yes, it's Emperor Taizu!" Li Zhen said with difficulty.

"beat!"

This time it was replaced with a stick, and then a bamboo stick was driven into the nail... one after another, eighteen in turn.

"Li Zhen, you should say it this time, who told you to say it?"

After three days of torture, Li Zhen finally spoke. He said angrily, "Yes, it's Ye Zhuan, a scribe."

"Scribe? Whose scribe?"

Li Zhen was stunned for a moment, and didn't want to speak, so she brought over the hot fish gelatin again. If this thing was brushed on her body, if she pulled it off, a large piece of flesh would fall off.

"speak!"

"Yes, it's Chen Ying!"

The torture finally came to an end, Lu Zhen, Minister of the Ministry of Punishment, came to see Jian Yi in a hurry with the file in hand.

"Jian Tianguan, this time we have finally figured it out."

After Jian Yi looked at it, he snorted, "This liar has been harboring ulterior motives for a long time, jumping up and down, he is not a good person, and now he is slandering Duke Ding, it is even more abhorrent. In this way, we will go to see Duke Ding now, and arrest Chen Ying immediately."

All the ministers came together, Xu Jingchang was still very calm.

"I've read the dossier. What Li Zhen said is only one-sided, and needs to be verified carefully. This matter should be dealt with by the Three Law Departments. I think there is a more important matter."

Everyone was taken aback, "What's the matter?"

"Naturally, we need to get to the bottom of it. It needs to be clarified, does this change exist?"

"This?" The ministers looked at each other, this question is a bit troublesome!

Xia Yuanji pondered and said: "Mr. Ding, you see that this matter has been investigated clearly. It was Chen Ying who did it. According to the law, he should be punished for his crime. It seems that there is no need to make extra troubles?"

Xu Jingchang said with a smile: "Is this an accident? The so-called change of the sky is a warning from heaven, a response from heaven and man, and the court is guilty... Is this thing true or false? Can it be used to influence the court? Affect national policy? "

Xu Jingchang stared at everyone present, and said with a smile: "This kind of thing must not be vague!"

Everyone at the scene looked at each other in blank dismay, it's not enough to dare to love one Chen Ying!
Jian Yi said in a muffled voice, "Mr. Ding, what should you do after seeing this?"

Xu Jingchang smiled and said: "I don't think it's better than this. Please, all the princes in the court, everyone write a letter to explain the truth. Everyone can talk about it, what is going on?"

Jian Yi said helplessly: "Mr. Ding, I'm not very knowledgeable. I really don't understand. I hope you will hold your hand high."

Xia Yuanji immediately said, "I can't tell."

Fang Bin, Lu Zhen, and the Ministry of Industry Minister Luo Qian who had just returned to Beijing all had the same attitude.

"Mr. Ding, how do we know about this kind of thing? You are clearly a strong man!"

Xu Jingchang's smile remained undiminished, "I'm trying to make things difficult for others? Well, I'll ask Huang Shangshu."

Huang Guan took a step forward with a sullen face, without speaking.

Xu Jingchang said: "The observatory in Zijin Mountain is ready?"

"Okay, I've talked to Duke Ding about this matter."

Xu Jingchang said with a smile: "In that case, how about arranging your colleagues to watch the sky together, and then talk about it?"

"No!" Xia Yuanji hurriedly waved his hands, "Mr. Ding, you can't do anything foolish. How can we courtiers spy on the sky? This is disrespectful!"

Jian Yi also said: "Your Majesty is the father of the emperor, and the father of the emperor is like the sky. Peeping at the sky is like committing an offense against the superior. As a minister, you must never dare to do it!"

The rest of the people also had the same attitude, "Mr. Ding, don't bully us, we absolutely cannot agree to this matter."

Before Xu Jingchang could speak, a voice suddenly came, "Did I ask you to agree?"

Accompanied by these words, Zhu Di walked in from the outside.

All the officials saluted one after another, in great fear.

With a smile on his face, Zhu Di asked the big guy to sit down.

Then he said: "I'm also quite curious at this time. The earthquake a few days ago was said to be a warning from the heavens. Did the heavens warn me, Duke Ding, or you two?"

Everyone's faces were so ugly, Jian Yi could only reluctantly say: "Your Majesty is holy and powerful. The Ming Dynasty was prosperous and prosperous. It must not be due to His Majesty."

Zhu Di nodded, "That's right, that's your ministers? But you are all appointed by me, carefully selected by me, all of you are the pillars of the Ming Dynasty, could it be that I am blind? Or you Someone lied to me?"

No one dared to agree to these words, and the big guys were all terrified and terrified.

Zhu Di looked at Xu Jingchang, "How about it, what do you think?"

Xu Jingchang said with a smile: "I don't know, I can only say that hearing is believing, seeing is believing!"

Zhu Di smiled, "Okay, let's go and meet! The observatory spent a few 10 taels, and it can't be wasted."
