When Li Yunlan was an aide, he made many proposals to benefit the people of Yunzhou. Later, in order to give the people of Yunzhou a clear sky, he openly turned against Zhu Ibis.
After that, he was hunted by Zhu Ibis for many years, and everyone thought that this man should be dead.
At the beginning, they in Yunzhou only used him as an example. The purpose of their studies was also to go to the blue sky to get back the justice that belonged to them.
But they didn't expect that their original idol target would actually appear in Shangjing and stand in front of them. ap.
At that moment, a student from Yunzhou stood up first and said with a shameful expression, "It turns out to be sir. The student was really rude just now. Please forgive me."
Li Yunlan just touched his beard and laughed and said, "It's not rude to talk about it. I am also an old man."
Seeing that Li Yunlan didn't seem to care about them, they respected Li Yunlan even more.
Then Cui Zian opened the banquet, and everyone just talked loudly at the banquet.
Some people couldn't help but curiously asked Li Yunlan, "Sir, what is the purpose of your coming here this time?"
When Li Yunlan heard this, he immediately said, "Of course I have to complete my unfinished business. I came to Beijing to file a complaint!"
Upon hearing this, everyone was surprised again.
At that moment, a student couldn't help but asked, "Is the unfinished business you mentioned, the matter of the prefect of Yunzhou?"
Li Yunlan only nodded when he heard this.
Upon hearing this, the scene became quiet, and then these people only exchanged glances with each other.
After their eyes met, one of them couldn't help but said, "I wonder what you are going to do, sir?"
After hearing their questions, Li Yunlan put down his glass of wine and said, "I plan to file a complaint."
When several people heard this, they only looked at each other. Complaint? Go to the imperial court to complain? They are also considered to be outstanding scholars, but they have not yet seen the current Holy Emperor.
Although Li Yunlan's courage is admirable, his ideas are somewhat naive.
"Mr. Li, it's not that we look down on you, but the complaint you mentioned doesn't sound very reliable."
"Yes, you can't even see the Holy Emperor. How can you go to the emperor to complain?"
Hearing people's doubts, Li Yunlan just smiled.
At the same time, Cui Zian only took the initiative to step forward and express his thoughts.
After hearing Cui Zian's plan, these students stopped questioning it.
After the banquet was over and the dishes were all messed up, everyone went back to their homes to look for their mothers.
On Xuanwu Street, in front of the Dengwen Drum at Yushitai, an old man was beating the drum.
Hearing someone beating the drum, the government officials in the mansion immediately came out. Seeing that the person was an old man, the government officials could not help but whisper, "Old man, why are you playing the drum?"
Seeing that someone finally came out to talk to him, the old man said, neither humble nor arrogant, "I'm here to redress my grievance!"
The yamen servant was a little strange, but he still said patiently, "Old man, of course I know you are here to redress your grievances, but we are here at the Yushitai. If you have any unusual cases, you should go to Shangjing Mansion next door. The Yin of Shangjing Mansion will help you. You decide."
However, the old man said with a very firm tone, "I'm not mistaken. I know this is the Yushitai. What I want to complain about is not the trivial matters of those parents."
Seeing that the old man spoke so clearly and his attitude was neither humble nor arrogant, the yamen servant naturally did not dare to neglect the old man.
After all, this place is at the feet of the emperor, and there are so many officials and dignitaries. If they accidentally fail to behave well. If you offend someone you shouldn't offend, you won't know how you died. That's why the yamen officer immediately said, "Since the old man has a grievance to complain about, please go inside. However, I still have to ask more. I don't know." Did you bring the complaint?"
Li Yunlan just nodded slightly when he heard this, "Of course I brought it with me."
The yamen servant also said, "That's good. Sir, come in with me."
Bar. "
After saying this, the officer on duty led Li Yunlan to the Yushitai.
At this time, the person on duty at the censor's desk was a middle-aged censor. His complexion was very white, his body was as fat as a hairy eyebrow, and his slender eyebrows gave him a scholarly air.
The censor's surname was Huang Tingzhong. When he saw Li Yunlan come in, he couldn't help but look at the audience and said, "Who is beating drums here to complain?"
Hearing Huang Tingzhong's words, Li Yunlan knelt down and knelt with a calm voice, "The common man is Li Yunlan from Duzheng Street in Yunzhou."
Huang Tingzhong couldn't help but become wary when he heard that this person was from Yunzhou, so he just whispered, "Who are you suing? What's the matter?"
Li Yunlan only said in a calm tone, "The common people want to sue Yunzhou Prefect Zhu Ibis. He has been an official for ten years. He has taken bribes, perverted the law, and put human lives at risk! He deceived his superiors and deceived and oppressed his subordinates."
"Under his rule, the people of Yunzhou were in dire straits. It was almost to the point where nine out of ten houses were empty, and the common people managed to escape from Yunzhou with great efforts! Sir, please make the decision for the villain and the people of Yunzhou. !」
Hearing this, Huang Tingzhong also knew that their Yushitai had something to do again.
So he just said immediately, "Then do you have evidence to prove what he did."
When Li Yunlan heard this, he said with certainty, "Of course there are grassroots people. In fact, grassroots people also worked as Zhu Ibis's staff for a period of time in Yunzhou, so they were involved in his accounts over the years. Among them are the grassroots people he has received from the imperial court over the years. The records of the disaster relief funds, as well as the records of the actual expenses that were actually transferred to the disaster area, the grassroots people couldn't bear the Yunzhou people, so they deliberately stole the accounts and complained everywhere, but they didn't expect that most of them were protected by officials. The grassroots people were found by the Zhu family many times. During this period, the Cao Min's wife died tragically in revenge, and the Cao Min arrived here with the help of Leiyang County Magistrate Guo Shizhang. I beg you to redress the grievances of the Cao Min and the people of Yunzhou, and restore the blue sky and white light to Yunzhou."
Huang Tingzhong was somewhat surprised to hear that the Zhu family was so arrogant.
After all, in their opinion, this Zhu Ibis Zhi does not seem to be an arrogant and domineering person. Of course, the gifts he gives to officials at all levels when he comes to Beijing every year are indeed a bit exaggerated and shocking. Although he said that Yunzhou is rich in products, he is the one who applies for the most relief every year.
It's just that he feels comfortable serving the people above him, so he can do whatever he wants below him.
Everyone has always tacitly understood it, and everyone knows that the Crested Ibis is an important flag arranged by Emperor Yong in Yunzhou, so over the years, the people below have only tacitly ignored it.
But now someone has poked this layer of window paper right in front of his eyes.
How can this not scare people?
So after seeing the evidence, Huang Tingzhong was frightened and didn't know what to do. He also secretly asked someone to tell Yu Shi Zhongcheng about the situation.
And he was still doing Tai Chi with Li Yunlan on the stage.
Soon the note from the censor Zhongcheng came to the censor.
After seeing the above content, the censor quickly came up with his own way of dealing with it.
"Old man, we have seen the information you gave us, and we have learned about this part in detail, but we still need to verify it, so it may take some time. You might as well go back and wait for news. Bar!"
After hearing what the censor said, Li Yunlan just thanked him and left.
However, he didn't expect to have to wait for several days, and when he went to the Yushitai again, there was already a different person on duty at the Yushitai.
When the person saw Li Yunlan coming to inquire about the results, he only gave this response: "This matter is not our responsibility! So we can't solve the situation you reported."
Li Yunlan felt strange when he heard what the other party said. After all, didn't the Yushitai always have the responsibility of evaluating and reviewing officials? Normally, these officials would be punished if they had irregular etiquette or improper behavior. However, now this Crested Ibis Zhi has really made people angry, and they actually said that it is not their responsibility.
Therefore, Li Yunlan only said, "Sir, you said this is not your duty."
Now, I would like to ask, what exactly is your responsibility? Is it to see how much wine Mr. Liu had eaten, how much Mr. Li had some quarrels with others on the way, or whether Mr. Chen forgot to wear the ring again? "
Hearing Li Yunlan's ridicule, the people below couldn't help but secretly laugh. This man's mouth is really poisonous.
His words only made the censor sitting at the top speechless.
The censor naturally knew that Li Yunlan was not sarcastic.
But today's Yushitai is no longer the former Yushitai.
In the past, there was the imperial censor Gao Yizhong, and there was still some clarity here. After all, Gao Yizhong was the only minister of Emperor Yong. If Emperor Yong made any mistakes, if Gao Yizhong pointed them out, Emperor Yong would accept them and correct them.
However, Gao Yizhong is still the same Gao Yizhong, but today's Emperor Yong is no longer the same Emperor Yong. He is now obsessed with seeking immortality, and he has become more and more self-willed, suspicious and sensitive. He cannot listen to Gao Yizhong's advice.
As a result, Gao Yizhong became more and more alienated from Emperor Yong. Several times in the palace, Gao Yizhong confronted Emperor Yong for the sake of the prince. The two were at war with each other, and Emperor Yong became more and more indifferent to him.
Seeing that he couldn't change anything, Gao Yizhong pretended to be ill and refused to go to court. Emperor Yong was happy to see this even though he didn't want it.
This is how a pair of model kings and ministers became identified.
Although Gao Yizhong is still decent, people have seen the results of Gao Yizhong, and no one dares to speak out.
Everyone is afraid of death. Those who tried to remonstrate with death died, and even if they failed to achieve their goals, people began to cherish their lives.
What's more, Li Yunlan is alone and has no allies behind him.
Zhu Iuzhi was not only the governor of Yunzhou appointed by Emperor Yong, he was also an important chess piece to check and balance the three brothers of the Chen family.
In addition, although the crested ibiszhi is no longer in the court, he has had close contacts with many important officials in the court over the years.
Therefore, when the power gap between the two parties is so large, in their opinion, such blind management may very well bring death to themselves.
That's why they can't and don't dare to take care of it.
