Wang Xijue also nodded and said: "We really can't let him continue to act so wantonly! Now the people below are writing to me all the time, some complaining, some pleading, everything! The most outrageous thing is that I am in Shanxi One of my disciples was kidnapped by the Jin Yiwei just after he wrote a letter. His family wrote a letter asking for help, and I don’t even know what to say!”
Several people were talking, but they all looked at Zhang Juzheng, waiting for him to express his position. These big guys also gradually rose to the top in the battle, and they are naturally very familiar with various fighting methods! So when the news of Jin Yiwei's arrest spread, they smelled something familiar! When the scale of arrests expands, they will naturally understand the mystery!
Originally, their first reaction was anger! I feel that Zhang Juzheng, as the chief assistant, used these methods, which is really beneath his status! But then they extinguished the anger in their hearts, because if the matter were changed to themselves, I'm afraid they would make the same choice! As for the loss of some people under his command, there is nothing he can do about it. Anyway, there are not many other things in the Ming Dynasty, but there are many people who are willing to be officials! Just lose a few disciples and then take them back!
Then after a while they started to become happy and even gloated a little! Because it was obvious that Zhang Juzheng had lost his temper! Now the officials who are arrested every day in the court have spread from the subordinates of several cabinet elders to Zhang Juzheng's faction, and the losses are all key members! So they all laughed secretly and unkindly!
But then they became angry again! Because what Liu Haojia did was clearly to push the civil servant to the ground and beat him, exposing the worst side of the civil servant to the eyes of the world! If things continue like this, the world will still know about civil servants, and they will have to wait for the royal guards to deliver justice!
So what Liu Haojia is doing now is a huge challenge to the country’s power class and must be suppressed! They are looking at Zhang Juzheng now just to wait for him to express his stance! If Zhang Juzheng doesn't express his position at this time, I'm afraid they will attack him in groups! After all, how can such a person become the chief minister of a country without protecting the practical rights of civil servants? .Ь.
Sure enough, Zhang Juzheng twirled his beard and said: "Of course I sent someone! When I went to his house, it turned out that Wu Ninghou was in Tianjin! I then sent someone to Tianjin again to find him, asking him to return to the capital as soon as possible! But! Do you know how his servants responded?"
Zhang Siwei took a step forward and said, "How did you say that?"
Zhang Juzheng sneered and said: "His servants said that Jin Yiwei is not under the management of the cabinet. If anything happens, he will report it directly to the court! There is no need to contact him in private! As for stopping the arrests in front of him, Long live the Lord has to speak in person. Okay! After all, the right of Jinyiwei to supervise officials was given by Emperor Taizu, and the cabinet has no right to comment!"
When Zhang Siwei heard this, he slapped his hand on the table and said through gritted teeth, "How arrogant! Does he want to go against the people of the world?"
Shen Shixing said: "Chief Assistant, we can't just let him pass this matter, right?"
Zhang Juzheng said: "That's natural! Then I sent someone to Tianjin and asked him to hand over the files of the arrested officials for review by Dali Temple and the cabinet! But he still shied away on the grounds that Jin Yiwei was not under the jurisdiction of the cabinet. !」
This time, not only Zhang Siwei was angry, but Shen Shixing, Wang Xijue and others were also furious! Especially Zhang Siwei started to curse in Shanxi dialect! No one would have thought that a dignified old man could be so proficient in country slang!琇书蛧
In the end, Shen Shixing was the first to calm down his anger and said, "Chief Assistant, this matter can't just go away like this, right? All the officials in the world are watching!"
Zhang Juzheng snorted and said, "Of course you can't! Yesterday, I arranged for the Inspectorate to recruit Jin Yiwei. The reason is that the case is untrue and there is a suspicion of frame-up! Moreover, the amount of dirty silver and stolen goods is wrong, and Jin Yiwei is suspected of embezzlement!" According to the rules of the imperial court, officials who are impeached must secede themselves. It is impossible for him to hide in Tianjin!"
Several pavilion elders burst into laughter immediately after hearing this! Zhang Siwei actually clapped his hands and said: "These two suspicions are used brilliantly!"
Shen Shixing even nodded and said: "In my opinion, even the word suspicion can be removed! When those Jinyi guards get a case, they will definitely add fuel and jealousy to it, but
I'm afraid the case is not big and they will get too little credit! "
Zhang Siwei also said: "Over the years, the amount of dirty money obtained by the Jinyiwei from investigating cases has never been calculated! I don't believe that as soon as Liu Haojia takes office, these Jinyiwei can correct their mistakes! It's better now, Just wait for him to return to the capital to be impeached! This time we must bring Jin Yiwei back to his original form!"
Not to mention that these big guys are gearing up to deal with Liu Haojia, but just saying that a few days later, the court was really turbulent! A large number of imperial censors wrote letters to impeach Jin Yiwei for framing officials from various places for his merits, and for embezzling dirty money! xь.
And under the leadership of the censors, a large number of officials followed suit! In their opinion, this matter is basically confirmed! How could they not know about Jin Yiwei's abilities? This time Jin Yiwei dares to touch the civil servants, let them know what it means to be sharp with words, and what it means to be as big as a sword!
So after the censor wrote to officials at all levels, chaos broke out in the court again! Everyone questioned Jin Yiwei's ability and attitude in handling the case. Even after Xun Gui came forward, he did not put down this trend! Especially those officials who dug up a lot of the dark history of Jin Yiwei from nowhere, and listed them one by one in the court, easily destroying the reputation that Jin Yiwei had just established!
As for the civil servants, after receiving this news, they naturally spread it like crazy! They told the people that the so-called Jin Yiwei were just a group of greedy people! They took advantage of the opportunity to handle the case and used despicable methods to expand their credit, just to get themselves promoted! He also misappropriated dirty things and silver. This behavior is simply outrageous!
As a result, public opinion has gradually reversed its trend! But just when the officials were celebrating, Jin Yiwei seemed to suddenly exert his strength! The number of memorials coming to the capital from other places suddenly more than tripled! News of people being arrested in various provinces and prefectures comes every day!
Judging from the memorials, except for a few provinces, officials were dismissed in all other provinces of the Ming Dynasty! Those provinces where nothing happened were not because the officials were honest, but because they were in remote areas, and some of the Jinyiwei were just beyond their reach! Or simply say that the amount of money they allocate is too small, and it is not worth the fuss of Jin Yiwei!
