Idle courtiers

Chapter 438 This is the care for elder Ge
When he was impeached by the officials, Yuan Wei thought about defending himself, and even mobilized his former students and officials to fight against the officials.

He is a cabinet minister and has been a high-ranking official for more than 20 years. His disciples and old officials are all over the world, so he can still play tricks with Ke Dao.It's just that once it's done like this, there will be a lot of movement.There is no turning back when the bow is opened, and the situation is not easy to grasp.

Hearing Zhou Nan's idea now, his eyes light up: "I never thought the solution would be so simple, it's really easy. Zhou Zimu has an idea."

However, after thinking about it, this man surnamed Zhou is a villain, and his words are not reliable, and he is a ghost, so I don't want to be fooled by him.

Yuan Wei put away the temporary smile on his face: "Is it true?"

This old Yuan was too careful, Zhou Nan was amused in his heart, turned his head and shouted to the outside: "Come in!"

At this time, a man walked in from the thick fog and knelt on the ground: "Young man Yu Er, kowtow to Elder Ge."

Yuan Wei didn't expect that there was a person standing outside, but he was startled when he heard the person reporting his family name.Suddenly realized: "Are you the one who was divorced by Duan Tixue's daughter-in-law?"

Getting married and being divorced by his wife is the greatest humiliation for a man.However, Yu Er was an honest man, and when he saw a prime minister like Yuan Wei, he was so startled that he trembled all over: "It's a small person, Mrs. Shi is indeed my ex-wife, and the child in her belly is mine."

Seeing that Yuan Wei still had doubts in his eyes, Zhou Nan said, "Yu Er, please submit the road guide, please take a look at it."

"Yes." Yu Er took out a road guide from his sleeve and handed it over.

Yuan Wei took it over and took a look. This road guide was issued by Daxing County, Shuntian Prefecture, and it was stamped with the seal of the county government and signed by a household house. It is naturally true, but it is different from ordinary road guides. Very strange.

Ordinary guides only briefly tell the name of the person holding the guide, where they live, why they went out, where they went, and when they returned.The remaining two guides actually described their appearance in detail, making it look like the admission ticket for the imperial examination, only a portrait.

Yuan Wei picked up the guide and compared it for a long time, seeing that the above description was exactly the same as the man in front of him, he breathed a sigh of relief and put it in his sleeve.

This guide, the yellow book of household registration in Daxing County, and the conversion document are all iron officials. If there is another impeachment by the censor, you can just throw them out and slap them in the face.

This trouble was passed safely.

Yuan Wei was curious again, and asked: "Yu Er, the fetus in Mrs. Shi's womb is your flesh and blood after all, how can you be willing to adopt it to the Duan family? Are you willing? If you are threatened by Duan Tixue or someone, just say, I call the shots for you."

After all, he squinted at Zhou Nan.

Zhou Nan felt tired, this old man Yuan is really inexplicable, I'm here to help you!
Yu Er wiped his tears and said, "No one coerced the villain, I did it voluntarily."

"is it?"

Yu Er wept softly: "If I want the baby back, what can he do if he follows me. After all, the villain is a slave, and the next four generations will not be able to participate in the imperial examination. It is impossible to be a public servant. Children and grandchildren will not be able to hold their heads up for 100 years. The child has become a member of the Duan family, and he is also a professor of the Grand Master Duan. Boy, no matter how wronged and uncomfortable Xiaomin feels, he is willing."

After speaking, a kind smile appeared on his face.

Zhou Nan suddenly felt ashamed, how can I deceive honest people, is it appropriate?Well, I have to make up for him in the future.

Yuan Wei sighed: "Poor parents in the world, you go down!"

When Yu Er retreated and was led to wait in the porter, Yuan Wei nodded to Zhou Nan: "Zimu has a heart, sit down and talk."

At this time, Zhou Nan thought that this would make people sit down, and Zhou Nan smiled wryly in his heart.After all, he is an old man, and everyone had conflicts before, which is understandable.

I did him a big favor today, and this festival can be regarded as over.

After a few sips of tea and a few gossips, Yuan Wei took the initiative to say: "Zimu, the Kongming case is of great importance, and you will inevitably be dismissed from office. However, Chunwei is only a few months away, go take the exam yourself. You If you come here tonight because of Xu Jifu, I’m sorry that I can’t do anything. The court has its own judgment, and your majesty has its own order, so you have to trust the emperor and the court.”

Zhou Nan slandered, is there any right or wrong in political matters? In the final analysis, it is a struggle for power and interests.As for Jiajing's final ruling, it is estimated that the direction of the court must also be considered before he finally stands up to maintain stability.

"Yuan Xiang, the matter of Xu Cifu will not be listed. Zhou Nan came here today because of the chaos of the factory guard." Zhou Nan said: "The factory and the guard are in charge of the imperial case. When arresting criminals, they must There is an order from the emperor. It seems that it is against the rules to try the case directly without going through the emperor. If things go on like this, the judiciary will do more. Wouldn’t it be a bad example of middle officials meddling in politics? This trend cannot be raised, this case cannot be opened, please also Mr. Yuan Ge think twice."

Hearing his words, Yuan Wei's heart trembled.

What Zhou Nan said hit the point.

Dongchang and Jinyiwei are the secret service agencies of the Ming Dynasty, directly responsible to the emperor.It is true that prisoners can be directly arrested, detained, and interrogated without going through any legal procedures.But the problem is that even if you have committed a crime as an ordinary person, you don't have a certain status, and people still don't bother to talk to you.

Generally speaking, the factory guards are run by high-ranking officials who have had political problems.After the trial is over, there is no right to make a judgment directly, and the file needs to be transferred to the San Punishment Division for final judgment.

To put it simply, the Sanfa Division is the law-casting department, while the Factory Guard is equivalent to the discipline inspection of later generations.

Now Chen Hong and Zhu Xizhong directly convict Xu Jie, which has touched the cake of the civil service system of the Three Jurisdictions.

Today the factory guards can intervene in the spell-casting system, but tomorrow can they intervene in court and local government affairs?
In this way, what do the civil servants need to do? Simply replace all the yamen with eunuchs.

Zhou Nan: "Old Man Ge's morality is high and pure, so of course we can't allow Chen, Zhu and other treacherous villains to disrupt the court. I also ask the old man to give up, and please transfer Kong Ming to the Ministry of Punishment for interrogation by the three courts."

With the appearance of dignified cabinet ministers and the shouting of his disciples and old officials, this will happen.

The civil servants of the Ming Dynasty had always been extremely wary of eunuchs, and Yuan Wei also knew how powerful they were, so he stroked his beard and murmured.

Zhou Nan knew that Yuan Wei was just a fool, and after a certain number of years, he would return to his hometown to retire.This case involved a lot, and old man Yuan didn't want to make trouble.

Need to add fire.

Zhou Nan: "This is also the care of the lower officials for the elders."

"Caring?" Yuan Wei didn't understand the meaning of this modern term for a while, and smiled: "What does it have to do with the old man?"

The next step was the exchange of benefits. Zhou Nan took a sip of tea from his teacup and moistened his throat: "I know that Mr. Ge has a prejudice against Xu Cifu, and the reason is because of the promotion of Yuan Xiang's disciple last time."

Yuan Wei smiled and didn't speak.
