Zhan Hui's popularity with the Metropolitan Procuratorate began to plummet from the time he framed Ling Han, a seventy-year-old man.
He was said to be one of the bosses in the censorship, but the young trolls led by Yu Min all started to distance themselves from him.
Even Han Yike, who has always been reluctant to break up with Zhan Hui, shook his head when he mentioned him in private: "He is getting better and better at figuring out what's best for him, but his mind is getting smaller and smaller."
"You are also jealous of talents. A newly elected censor last year has just started to make a name for himself. Your Majesty praised him a few times."
"He looked for opportunities when he turned around and sent people far away to serve as county magistrates. He also said that people would be trained so that they could better serve the court in the future."
"That kid was stupid. He actually believed it and took office happily. If such a person takes power in the future, it will not be a good thing for the court."
If the Metropolitan Procuratorate had not been suppressed by him, Zhan Hui would have been here with one hand covering the sky, killing whomever he wanted, and dealing with whomever he wanted.
Maybe he is the second Hu Weiyong, the kind who can decide the life, death, promotion and demotion of officials at will. It is scary to think about it.
Gu Chen was not too worried, and instead comforted the teacher softly.
"Teacher, don't worry. Your Majesty knows exactly what kind of people should be used and what kind of rights should be given. It won't be a big deal."
There is a saying in history that Zhan Hui and Zhu Biao quarreled fiercely and often had different opinions. Zhu Biao advocated benevolent governance, while this guy advocated harshness and severity, and his thoughts were closer to Zhu Yuanzhang's.
Once, Zhan Hui made Zhu Biao so angry that he brought it to Lao Zhu, but Zhu Yuanzhang thought Zhan Hui was right and scolded Biao'er for being too kind.
Zhu Biao was so angry and confused by his father's scolding that he fell into the river and caught the cold.
Before he died, he held Zhu Yunwen's hand and said that Zhan Hui was responsible for his death.
Only then did the Lan Yu case occur. Zhan Hui and Zhu Yunwen tried Lan Yu together. Lan Yu suddenly corrected Zhan Hui and was challenged by Zhu Yunwen.
It's hard to tell the truth of this matter. After all, he didn't believe that Biao'er could be scared into the water after being scolded for a few words, but he must have been angry at Biao'er.
As for his death, it is very likely that Zhu Yuanzhang later remembered that he was angry with the big brother, so he deliberately liquidated it to vent his anger for the big brother.
Han Yike shook his head gently. His Majesty is not a god in the sky. He always makes mistakes, so how can he be sure of everything?
"You should be more careful. I see that he already has a strong opinion of you. If there is anything inappropriate again, he will definitely bite you."
Speaking of which, Guang Xi also helped Zhan Hui, but he...
Sure enough, jealousy changes people beyond recognition, and it’s no wonder that Guangxi shines so brightly.
Thinking like this, Han Yike felt a little proud, this was his student.
On the tenth night after Gu Chen returned to Beijing, Su Wanying started to feel something in her stomach.
After eight or nine hours of tossing, the little boy weighing five pounds and six taels was born.
Well, Miracle Doctor Xiao is good at taking pulses, he is indeed a boy.
"Dad, the third child is so ugly." Gu Xiu looked at the red ugly thing and felt a little disgusted: "Mom, can you give birth to a good-looking brother again?"
He was too embarrassed to take his little brother out because he was so ugly.
What is this word?
Gu Chen and Su Wanying couldn't laugh or cry. Can this thing happen again?
"Don't talk nonsense." Gu Shuning glared at the second child and looked at the third child lovingly: "Newborn children don't even look good-looking. They will look better in a few days."
"When you were born, you were not as good-looking as the third child."
Although she didn't know what her second child was like when he was born.
When the second child was born, she and her grandmother were still in Nanchang Mansion.
"Yeah?"
Gu Xiu was dubious about what his sister said, but in the end he chose to believe it.
"Okay, then let's keep him up and take care of him. Even if he doesn't look good, I won't dislike him. I just need to let him go out less in the future."
"It's not his fault that he's ugly. It's his fault that he scares others."
Anyway, judging from the looks of his parents, it was impossible to stuff him back and rebirth him.
Gu Shuning rolled his eyes at the second child and looked at his parents with interest.
"Mom and Dad, what is the name of the third brother?"
She felt that the second brother's name, Gu Xiu, sounded like a monk's name. She hoped that the third brother would have a nice name.
"Let's call it Gu Yan." Regarding the name, Gu Chen had already thought about it: "This word means prosperous, prosperous, and flourishing literary thoughts."
The second child likes the dangerous work of wielding knives and guns. I hope the third child can honestly be a scholar and live in peace for the rest of his life.
The third child is still a baby. He cannot feel the heavy love of his parents and does not know his parents' expectations. He burped and fell asleep again.
Gu Chen knew that Zhan Hui disliked him, but he didn't expect that he disliked her so much and couldn't tolerate her for a moment.
In the nineteenth year of Hongwu, on May 19th, in the court hall, Zhan Hui's henchman Su Song jumped out to impeach Gu Chen for condoning his subordinates' corruption of money and silver, which was a heinous crime.
Su Song spoke sharply and asked Lao Zhu to dismiss Gu Chen from his post. He also scolded Han Yike for his inappropriate teaching and asked Lao Zhu to punish Han Yike together.
Gu Chen: "...I dare to ask Mr. Su, who do I condone to be greedy for money and money?"
He had only returned from Liaodong less than two months ago, and many of the newly appointed supervisory censors did not recognize their faces, and there was also a censor of Qiandu above them.
If this is the case, you can't blame all the blame on yourself, right?
"Don't Master Gu know?" Su Song sneered: "It seems that Master Gu is really lazy and cares less about official duties. He doesn't know what Liu Zhiren is doing."
"This year someone secretly reported that officials in Huai'an were withholding taxes. Your Majesty sent Liu Zhiren to investigate the case. He found out that this was true but did not report it."
"I also asked for 150 taels of silver, 34 taels of gold, and 25,200 taels of banknotes from corrupt officials in Huai'an."
"Your Majesty, I also found out that Liu Zhiren, the censor of the inspection, deliberately delayed the case and refused to judge it when he was inspecting Huai'an. He also corrupted both the plaintiff and the defendant, and he also raped women from good families."
After saying that, Su Song took out the confession from his arms and handed it over respectfully.
Then he sneered at Gu Chen and said, "If I remember correctly, this Liu Zhiren was the one Yu Min chose to go to Huai'an."
"Master Gu, Yu Min is under your control. The people under your command have made such a big mistake. Are you not aware of it at all, or are you deliberately condoning it?"
This sentence is simply a trap. No matter how Gu Chen answers, it will be wrong.
Not knowing at all is a dereliction of duty, and deliberately conniving is an even greater sin.
Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Hao Daer and saw that although Biao'er had no expression on his face and appeared to be unbiased, he fired several cold arrows at Zhan Hui.
Looking at Gu Chen again, this kid was calm and didn't even have the slightest trace of panic about being impeached. He just turned back to Yu Min for confirmation.
