Ming Dynasty: My father Yongle, Forever Reigns Over Mountains and Rivers

Chapter 542: A direct minister remonstrates! The storm breaks out again!

Latest website:

Yingtian, the imperial capital.

Wenyuan Pavilion.

Prince Zhu Gaochi was at his desk reviewing memorials.

Even though His Majesty the Emperor has returned to Beijing, he still acts as a hands-off shopkeeper.

Big Fatty doesn't quite remember how long he, the crown prince, has been in charge of the country.

After beating his aching waist, Big Fatty stood up and moved his hands and feet.

His Royal Highness has lost weight in recent days!

Oh? Really? Big Fatty asked with a smile on his face.

All the ministers nodded, no one dared to say no.

Seeing this situation, Zhu Gaochi was very happy.

After all, regardless of whether they are sincere or not, hearing someone say they are thin is better than saying they are fat.

However, at this moment, Li Qing, the left deputy censor of the capital, hurriedly walked in, holding a stack of sending and receiving documents in his hand!

Your Highness the Crown Prince!

This is the receipt and dispatch book of the Ministry of War. I have something unclear!

Upon hearing this, Zhu Gaochi suddenly became solemn.

This Li Qing and Li Defu are famous for their uprightness and their ability to speak out and dare to give advice!

At that time, Xin Chengbo and Zhao Yi killed Yunfu without permission and stole military pay; the governors Tan Qing and Zhu Chong were greedy and indulgent, but Li Qing was not afraid of their power and impeached them. In the end, they were all handed over to judicial officials for interrogation.

After that, he impeached the governor Fei Wang for cheating, Liang Ming for being greedy and cruel, and the governor guarding Dezhou Cao De for being greedy. As a result, they were all condemned.

It is precisely because of this that Li Qing's reputation for being upright is well known to both the government and the public, and officials at home and abroad are afraid of his demeanor.

However, as the power of the Metropolitan Procuratorate expanded, Li Qing, as the left deputy imperial censor and the third-in-command of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, rarely impeached courtiers personally.

He came here in a hurry today because he was afraid that this matter was not a big deal!

Li Qing's family speaks out if they have anything to say.

This is the receipt and dispatch book of the Ministry of War. After checking it, I discovered something!

Li Qing didn't waste any time and directly explained his purpose.

The Ministry of War has never issued a transfer order to Jinshan Guard, but Jinshan Guard has no order to send troops!

It wasn't until the news was reported that the Ministry of War issued such a replacement order!

This matter is very strange, and I, the Ming Dynasty, will never set a precedent like this. How can there be any reason to issue a replacement order afterwards?

The big fat man frowned when he heard this, and hurriedly took the incoming and outgoing documents and checked them.

Thanks to the examination method proposed by Zhu Gaoxu, King of Han Dynasty, the monasteries in the Ming Dynasty are now extremely efficient, and records of everything are left, which can be verified at any time!

However, Zhu Gaochi did not know anything about the reissue of the Jinshan Guard transfer order by the Ministry of War!

And this is so ridiculous!

How can there be any reason for the army to send out troops without an imperial edict and then issue additional deployment orders?

To send troops without an imperial edict and to deploy troops privately is tantamount to treason!

Otherwise, why would the imperial court attach so much importance to military power and form a cumbersome and complicated troop deployment process?

Aren't you afraid that some ambitious people will steal military power and eventually cause serious trouble?

I don't know anything about this!

This is not an order given by Gu!

Hearing this, Li Qing's pupils shrank suddenly!

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince does not know this matter.

The only person who can issue this order is His Majesty the Emperor!

When he thought of this, Li Qing suddenly understood, but he still did not give up.

Your Highness the Crown Prince!

Xiaguan, go and see the saint now!

Since Your Highness doesn't know about this, it would be best if you don't know at all!

As soon as he finished speaking, Li Qing took the mailing book and turned around to prepare to face the saint.

Seeing this situation, Big Fatty felt a little uneasy.

He knows this Li Qing very well, he has always been a ruthless minister who accepts death!

The current reissue of the transfer order obviously violates Ming Dynasty's customization.

If Li Qing goes here, I'm afraid something big is going to happen!

Li Qing's family, wait!

I will accompany you to the meeting with the Holy Spirit!

Li Qing was startled when he heard this, then smiled bitterly.

Why is your Highness doing this?

Of course he knew why the prince wanted to go together. It was not to prevent himself from offending Long Yan and to save his own life!

No need to say more, let's go!

Big Fatty waved his hand and headed straight to Qianqing Palace worriedly.

Soon, Zhu Di got the news.

Hearing that the prince and Li Qing came together, Zhu Di suddenly started to murmur in his heart.

Could it be that something big happened?

Li Qing just entered the royal study and fell to his knees.

May I ask Your Majesty, did the Ministry of War obtain the Emperor's decree regarding the reissue of the Jinshan Guard transfer order?

Well... Zhu Di's heart skipped a beat and he nodded expressionlessly.

That's what happened. The transfer order has been issued, so there is no need to pursue it any further!

Why not pursue it? Li Qing did not give in.

Sending troops without an imperial edict and deploying troops without permission is a crime of treason and death that is tantamount to conspiracy!

If we don't pursue the case today, or we can fool the past by issuing a new transfer order and set a precedent, then what if someone makes a fuss about this in the future and secretly mobilizes the army to steal the power of the army, what should the emperor do?!

It is true that the replacement order can be fooled!

But things cannot be done this way, and we must not set this precedent!

Otherwise, it will only leave hidden dangers to future generations of the Ming Dynasty!

Li Qing, you are brave!

Emperor Yongle was angry. He really didn't expect that Li Qing was so courageous!

I have already said that I will no longer pursue the matter of Jinshan Guard. Do you still dare to linger here?

Your Majesty, it is excusable for Jinshan Guard to send troops today, but what about tomorrow? What about the future? Are all those who send troops without an imperial edict excusable?

The law shows no mercy, let alone blasphemy. Please take back your Majesty's order and severely punish the commander of Jinshan Guard and others!

This is Li Qing, an old stubborn man who accepts death!

Asshole!

Someone take him out!

Zhu Di was furious, but he had always understood Li Qing's temperament. uukanshu.net So I didn't think about punishing him, I just ordered someone to take this old boy out.

Most of the officials above the court are people who are obsessed with fame, wealth and power. There are indeed fewer and fewer pure civil servants like Li Qing.

Moreover, Li Qing is not only upright, loyal and outspoken, but also very talented himself.

So Zhu Di didn't want to get along with him, so he just threw it out to save himself from trouble.

Unexpectedly, after Li Qing was thrown out, he still knelt outside the palace and vowed to ask His Majesty the Emperor to take back his life!

Zhu Di was really angry when he heard this, and then looked at Big Fatty with a livid face.

Prince!

Is this what you mean?

The second brother is charging into battle in Jiangnan. Now you jump out to destroy him?

Big Fatty: “???”

What?

What does it mean?

Oh my god!

I just came here to break up the fight!

Your Majesty, I have absolutely no intention of doing this!

It's best not, otherwise I won't be able to spare you!

Zhu Di took a deep look at Big Fatty, and then snorted coldly.

The emperor is already sensitive and suspicious, especially at this sensitive moment.

King Zhu Gaoxu of Han Dynasty went to the south of the Yangtze River in anger, and even mobilized the army of the guards, obviously intending to kill and kill people in the south of the Yangtze River.

Zhu Di had been prepared for a long time, waiting for the courtiers who had colluded with the Jiangnan gentry to jump out, and then catch them all!

But he didn't expect that the first person to jump out to attack Lao Er would be Li Qing and the prince!

Needless to say, Li Qing is a stubborn old man who accepts death!

But how could the prince get involved?

It’s hard for Zhu Di not to think too much!

Issuing an order!

Put Li Qing in jail!

Zhu Di spoke coldly and simply added fuel to the fire again!

He wanted to see who else was hiding in the dark, stirring up trouble!
