Jia Ping, the supervisory censor, was overjoyed after hearing what Emperor Linde said.
Sure enough, Emperor Linde was also dissatisfied with the group of people who lived in the 13th year of Yong'an. These people regarded themselves as noble and regarded them as rotten maggots, flies and dogs, always acting like they were asking for life for the world.
This group of people has not yet engaged in land annexation, and has always had the idea of dividing people into acres and imposing a poll tax.
This is simply an attempt to go against big landowners like them!
Jia Ping and others are not worth one or three series for a long time!
But it’s no use just being unhappy!
The first and third dynasties were in power, and Wang Hua was in charge of the cabinet. Although the chief minister of the cabinet was nominally Qian Muqian, Qian Muqian's mind had been on writing books and biographies in recent years, and he had no intention of interfering with the affairs of the court. The actual affairs of the cabinet It’s Wang Hua.
Li Xunhuan was the right-hand censor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate and the third-in-command of the Metropolitan Procuratorate. In an era when Cheng Qingsong was old and Li Weiguang had both sides, Li Xunhuan's influence in the Metropolitan Procuratorate was considerable.
As for the military, although it is obvious that the first and third lineages in the army now only have one Taipusi Qing Yang Nayan, who is responsible for the cultivation, breeding, and training of war horses in the army. In other words, it is the Butima Wen of the continent. Although his weight in the military is not low, Yang Nayan is still not qualified in front of the real military boss.
However, this is only on the surface. The real Dinghai Shenzhen of the first and third series is the first person in the military who is outside the capital of the gods, Wuxiang Hou Yang Qingyuan.
It is also because of him that today's first and third series have such confidence.
In the eyes of Jia Ping and others, people from the first and third dynasties have taken control of the court, ousted the emperor, issued orders and acted against the will. They are simply the largest criminal group in the court, and they are loyal people who are willing to take advantage of their responsibilities.
Unfortunately, before today, Emperor Linde, the largest political force in the DPRK, was also considered a member of the first and third families.
The emperor is not the holder of supreme power in the eyes of ordinary people. More often, he is the biggest trump card of a political group.
But now, this trump card seems to have a problem with his teacher. If he doesn't take action now, it will be better to wait until the time is right.
A few days ago, Emperor Linde was furious because of the matter of offering sacrifices to heaven and sinners. Today's attitude is simply a 360-degree turn!
Emperor Linde's words seemed to have shaken some ministers. They seemed to have seen the opportunity to bring down Yang Qingyuan and the first and third factions, and they jumped out to impeach Yang Qingyuan.
The expression on Wang Hua's face did not change, as if this was just an ordinary thing.
Seeing that more than thirty people agreed, Emperor Linde nodded with satisfaction, and then said, "All the ministers are loyal to the emperor, patriotic, and concerned about the country and the people! It is really my honor to have such a loyal and good minister. Fortunately, the imperial court is fortunate, the country is fortunate, and the people are fortunate!"
Jia Ping almost lost himself amidst the compliments of Emperor Linde for not needing money.
This cannot be blamed on him. After all, the praise came from the emperor. Anyone else would be confused.
"I have also considered the advice of the ministers. Since someone is impeaching the Marquis of Wuxiang, it is natural to investigate the matter strictly. If Yang Qingyuan is really treasonous and evil, I will never tolerate it!"
So far, Jia Ping and others were very satisfied and did not waste today's performance, but what happened next seemed a little different from what they imagined.
"But..." Emperor Linde changed the topic, "My mentor once said that only by investigating the truth can the source be rectified. Therefore, this matter cannot be handled lightly. It must be investigated in detail."
"Let's do this!" Emperor Linde looked down at Jia Ping, the supervisory censor who was kneeling at the front despite not having the highest official position. "Jia Censor, you are loyal and courageous. You are a role model for all ministers. It's up to you to go." Bar!"
"Your Majesty, I..."
Before Jia Ping could speak, Emperor Linde continued, "Yang Qingyuan is the prince's junior master and a marquis of the imperial court. It is a matter of great importance and cannot be carried away. Every detail must be investigated. Jia Aiqing, I have decided to appoint As an imperial envoy, you went to Jinling City to investigate this matter and bring the truth to the world.
If Yang Qingyuan is really violating the law and rebellious, he will be taken back to the capital of God to face charges after the epidemic subsides. If it is just a fabrication and baseless thing, then you can stay in Jinling and take my place.
Appease the people! "
After Jia Ping heard this, he was immediately stunned. He didn't mean that!
He just wanted to get high orally and didn't want to face Yang Qingyuan, let alone go to the current Jinling.
As soon as Emperor Linde finished speaking, Di Zhiyuan, the young minister of Dali Temple, immediately cheered and said, "Your Majesty is indeed thoughtful! At this time, there was a great epidemic in Jinling and a poisonous miasma was rampant. Within ten days, there were more than 300,000 people in Jinling City. People get sick, and this kind of epidemic is really weird and terrifying. It would be great if there is someone in the court who cares about loyalty and purity, and can go to Jinling to investigate Yang Qingyuan's affairs, and at the same time comfort the people on behalf of the emperor!"
Among the ranks of martial artists, Liu Dufeng, the chief arrester of the Six Gates who has always been unknown and strives to be a transparent person in the Chang Dynasty, Wu Weibo Liu Dufeng also stood up to express his support, "What Di Shaoqing said is absolutely true! I was here just now I wonder who has the courage to go to the epidemic area, but I didn’t expect Jia Yushi to volunteer, he is really a loyal person to the country!"
As he spoke, Liu Dufeng took out a memorial from the sleeve of his official robe.
"Your Majesty, I have just received an urgent report from Jinling Mansion. More than 100,000 people in Jinling Mansion have been infected with this strange epidemic. The number of people infected with the disease in Jinling City has reached 430,000."
Liu Dufeng's words immediately frightened Jia Ping, who had just straightened his back.
He does want to bring down the first and third series, and he does want to continue climbing up, but all this is based on the premise that he is still alive.
Otherwise, when you die, you can only continue to be a ghost and continue to climb up from the bottom.
What is the situation of Jinling City now? ! More than 400,000 people have been infected with this strange disease. There are only more than 2 million people in Jinling, which is almost one-fifth. This shows how terrible the spread of this disease is.
Jia Ping is just a weak man, and his physical constitution is average but not ordinary. Maybe he will be infected with this strange disease as soon as he arrives in Jinling, which means the gain outweighs the loss.
Moreover, even if he is not infected with the disease for the time being, he will still be infected if he stays for a long time.
Even if he is lucky enough to not get sick, he still needs to face Yang Qingyuan, the living king of hell.
He even dared to kill the previous emperor, what could he do as a small supervisory censor? !
I just want to get high, so why are you being targeted? !
Looking at the bright-eyed Emperor Linde, Di Zhiyuan with a thoughtful look on the side, and Wu Wei Bo Liu Dufeng who seemed to be smiling but not smiling, Jia Ping felt that he had fallen into a trap.
This is clearly a trick used by these people to target him with ill intentions!
"Your Majesty! I..." Jia Ping hesitated for a moment, "I am already old, so it will take a long time to go!"
In a panic, Jia Ping casually gave a reason.
He is only forty years old, which has nothing to do with old age. For officials, it is the rising period of their career and they are in their prime years.
"Alas, there is no need for Jia Qing to feel sorry for herself. Marquis Yang once said at that time that the east corner has passed away and it is not too late. Jia Qing was in his prime years in the Spring and Autumn Period, so how could he have anything to do with him."
Before Jia Ping could reply, Emperor Linde continued to add, "I will strictly order the stations along the way to provide fast horses for Jia Qing! He can arrive at Jinling within five days to start the investigation!"
Jia Ping almost yelled when he heard this. Is this going to investigate? ! This is to die!
We traveled day and night from the capital of God to Jinling. It was still an epidemic area, and you couldn't afford to get sick once you got there!
Moreover, what is currently prevalent in Jinling City is the plague!
For most people, plague is even more terrifying than war.
During the war, civil servants like Jia Ping were still valuable, and their lives would not be in danger even if they were caught by the enemy.
But epidemics are different! It spreads with the wind, and its vicious energy enters through the mouth and nose, hurting people's lungs!
It doesn’t matter who you are, ordinary people, but they are all the same in the face of epidemics.
For example, on Blue Star in later generations, the Aixinjueluo family fought against smallpox. Two emperors and a prince died of smallpox.
The ninth son of Huang Taiji, Emperor Taizong of the Qing Dynasty, Emperor Shunzhi Aixinjueluo Fulin arranged for Wu Liangfu to become a monk in the 18th year of Shunzhi. He personally attended the ordination ceremony. Unexpectedly, he contracted smallpox the night he came back.
Immediately, the fever persisted, and within a few days I burped.
The eldest son of Emperor Xianfeng, Aixinjueluo Zaichun, also known as Emperor Tongzhi, also died of smallpox according to records.
The fifteenth son of Emperor Taizu Nurhaci of the Qing Dynasty, Aixinjueluo Duduo, one of the culprits of the Ten Days in Yangzhou, also died of smallpox.
Kang Mazi, who is said to be unparalleled in his prosperity and the saint ancestor Kang Qian, became the emperor in large part because he had smallpox when he was a child. Although his face was left pockmarked, because he had smallpox, he became One of the best candidates for the new king.
The enemy will judge your worth and class, but the virus will not, although the treatment conditions may be different.
But in the face of infection, all living beings are equal. For example, in the early stages of infection by a new type of virus in later generations, the British prime minister, the royal family, and the three presidents of the United States were all prominently listed.
"Your Majesty! It's not that I don't want to serve the country, it's just..." Jia Ping's brain was running rapidly, how to evade it in a reasonable and legal way.
Since ancient times, there has been a dilemma between loyalty and filial piety. Faced with the emperor's demands, only filial piety can resolve the dilemma.
Ordinary mothers are seriously ill and cannot impress the emperor. It may be solved by sending an imperial doctor, but they must give a reason that the emperor cannot refuse.
"It's just that my mother is about to give birth and she is very old. If something unexpected happens, how can I not be by her side as my son..."
I don't know where Jia Yushi's mind wandered just now. The reason he came up with made all the ministers present, Emperor Linde and the chamberlain around him fall into deep self-doubt.
Did I hear it wrong?
Among them was Eunuch Cao, a master of the Dongxuan Realm.
Since ancient times, there has been a dilemma between loyalty and filial piety, so you gave a reason why your mother is going to give birth...this time...it is really too filial!
Even for people like Wang Hua, their brains shut down for several breaths and they were unable to react.
"..."
Emperor Linde has been on the throne for three years, but he has never encountered such a situation... He didn't know what to say for a moment.
"Ahem...since ancient times...this...since ancient times, there has been a dilemma between loyalty and filial piety...then Jia Yushi should stay at home with your mother to give birth!"
Giving birth is a common excuse for most people. Because of the dangers during childbirth, giving birth is indeed a top priority. But to shirk the emperor, it is not enough for his wife to give birth to a child, so Jia Ping found another way. Since the wife cannot give birth to a child, then it is the mother who wants to give birth to a child!
Sure enough, Emperor Linde was also moved by Jia Ping's filial piety and did not continue to ask him to go to Jinling for a business trip.
When Emperor Linde turned his attention to the other ministers who spoke with Jia Ping to impeach Yang Qingyuan.
"I wonder who can take care of all the people in this country?!"
Everyone present is not stupid. Going to an epidemic area to do this kind of imperial mission is not only risky, but you can accidentally become a hero of the court. Even if you are not careful, the benefits are very small.
"Your Majesty! I am over fifty years old and have only one son! Now the child has not had any water or rice for two days! I sincerely ask Your Majesty to take pity on the remnants of my family, release my bones and return them to my hometown, and take care of my young son."
The young minister of Honglu Temple tried his best to tell no lies. His child had indeed not eaten for two days, but it was not because of illness, but because he knocked down the memorial tablet of his great ancestor in the mourning hall, so he was fined with two starving meals. God has a long memory.
"Your Majesty! I am seriously ill and cannot travel far!"
"Your Majesty! I'm not good at riding horses, so I might miss the important matters of the court!"
Various reasons have been presented in a circle, and when it came to Deputy Envoy Zhao Tongzheng of the Department of General Affairs, he really couldn't think of a new excuse. While everyone was waiting for his excuse, Deputy Envoy Zhao suddenly fell unconscious and fell to the ground. , twitching of limbs, trismus, foaming at the mouth, eyes turned up.
"this……"
This wave of operations was on display again. Thirteen Well-Reading Groups naturally knew that this was a sign of epilepsy. I didn’t expect these people to work so hard in order not to go to the epidemic area.
"Call the imperial doctor to take Mr. Zhao for treatment."
"yes!"
After dealing with the sudden illness of Deputy Minister Zhao of the General Affairs Department, Emperor Linde once again brought the problem back to the beginning.
"Since the ministers are impeaching Yang Qingyuan for committing evil in Jinling and plundering the people's wealth, then who is willing to go through this!"
Emperor Linde's words continued to echo in Hanyuan Hall, but now no one answered.
Seeing that no one came forward, Thirteen said angrily again, "Could it be that the imperial court has a group of people who only know how to gossip and impeach people?! Why is it that when it comes time to employ people, no one stands up to help me?" Share the worries?!"
Originally, the situation was about the ministers coercing Emperor Linde to investigate Yang Qingyuan, but in just a few words, it turned into a scene where Emperor Linde angrily scolded the ministers.
Seeing this, everyone was filled with admiration. Although the emperor has not been involved in political affairs all year round, it does not mean that he is a novice in politics. Just now, he turned his back on the guest and grasped the key points, neatly and neatly.
Most of the people in the DPRK did not believe Yang Qingyuan's corruption.
Those who wish to believe will not go, and those who wish to leave do not believe.
Whether they are Yang Qingyuan's friends or his political opponents, they all believe in Yang Qingyuan's qualities and abilities.
Moreover, even Yang Qingyuan's enemies only deny Yang Qingyuan's character, and no one doubts his ability.
To control the plague in Jinling City, the government could not find a better person to coordinate the overall situation than Yang Qingyuan.
Not to mention that these people were just making false accusations, even if it was true, the court would not deal with Yang Qingyuan at this juncture.
It can only be said that the political level of these people is indeed not very good, and their ability to seize opportunities is also average.
This seemingly uproarious massacre was like a farce, and finally came to an end under the scolding of Emperor Linde.
