The imperial censors Qi Ruijie, Jin Zilu and others were punished by the emperor for taking their fame.
It's okay if the official is gone. As long as they have a reputation as a gentleman, it's not difficult to wait for a few years before using them again. But if the official title is gone, it means they have the same status as ordinary people.
To put it bluntly, human nature still likes to see people being unlucky.
Among them, Qi Ruijie is from Jiangxi. As a younger generation of censors, he was originally quite famous. But now that he has ended like this, it is also disappointing.
Sheng Yi found her friend Yan Song's room in the Jiangxi Guild Hall early in the morning.
"...Everyone now says that Qi Sanyou (Qi Ruijie's nickname) is a female minister who abandoned the imperial court, but I don't believe it. I had the honor to consult him in person three years ago. I know that he has good ideas and a noble character... …”
Yan Song listened for a long time, and the more he listened, the more he thought it was a horror drama, "Brother Sheng, do you mean to organize a few scholars to clear Qi Sanyou's name?"
Sheng Yi's face was fair and tender, because he was born well and had never worked hard. In fact, he had a handsome and elegant look. At this time, his face straightened and he said: "Wei Zhong, I am not someone who adds insult to injury, and I don't want to add insult to injury." Things. Qi Sanyou has this name, and I should be the one to correct him, shouldn't I?"
Yan Song frowned and cupped his hands, "Brother Sheng, Yan has been taking great care of you these days. Yan also knows that you are a person who is eager for justice and loves justice, but the affairs of the court are definitely not about loyalty. .”
"You don't want to?" Sheng Yi was a little surprised. He thought that he and Yan Song had already communicated deeply and had a heart-to-heart relationship with each other. Only now did I realize that I didn’t seem to understand this fellow countryman.
Yan Song didn't know what to say.
"Brother Sheng, Brother Rong has a question for you."
"you say."
"Okay. Brother Sheng said that he wants to rectify Qi Sanyou's name. Since he wants to rectify his name, it means that his name has been distorted."
Sheng Yi nodded, this is within logic, there is no problem.
Yan Song leaned his head closer, "Brother Sheng, have you ever thought about who distorted his name?"
"Who is it..." Sheng Yi thought for a moment and actually figured it out, "It's Your Majesty..."
"Hey." Yan Song stretched out his hand and his face changed, "Brother Sheng, be careful, this is the capital. I, Yan, am not a person who knows how to repay a favor without repaying it. In my heart, Brother Sheng is also my friend, so I said more. These words."
Gudong.
Sheng Yi swallowed his saliva, and his breathing suddenly became rapid. The veins on his neck were not visible just now, but now he could see them clearly, "...can we just succumb to fame and fortune and not even dare to speak? Do you want to tell me?"
Yan Song thought to himself that he shouldn't say such things. If he did, he wouldn't even be qualified for a basic conversation. Because that means you are not a normal person.
"What do you want to say? What do you want to defend? Your Majesty said that the Three Friends of Qi and others abandoned the court when the Tatars attacked the Ming Dynasty. Isn't this true?"
"But this matter... is not explained in this way! This is not its original intention!"
"Brother Sheng means that Your Majesty deliberately misinterpreted this matter?"
He didn't dare to say that if Sheng Yi failed, "I'm not referring to Your Majesty."
"Hey." Yan Song sighed, "Anyway, Brother Sheng can think of saving Qi Sanyou and others at this time, which shows that Brother Sheng is a straight-minded and strong-minded gentleman. But to be honest, Yan This is a generation of heroes that is rare to see in several years. It is this imperial edict from Taizu that year that has been used to perfection. "….
"Nowadays, no one inside or outside Beijing knows that the Holy Emperor is the successor to Taizu, and that Qi Sanyou's game is a dead end. There was something Yan didn't say just now. It was Brother Sheng who went to clear his name today. This name Do you still have to come back?"
After Yan Song said so much, he bowed his head and handed over his hand.
After saying this, he couldn't talk anymore. Misfortune comes from the mouth. Why talk so much?
The world and the court are all about right and wrong all the time. Those who understand will naturally understand. For those who don’t understand, no matter how much they talk, it is a waste of time.
Sheng Yi was also pitiful. What Yan Song said made him break into cold sweat. He was admitted to the imperial examination and became a high official. For the first time, he felt that the second half of the sentence was more difficult than the first half, and it was much more difficult.
Fortunately, he still points
Although Yan Song's words were hard to hear, they were for his own good.
Sheng Yi struggled repeatedly between the morality and practical interests in her heart, and she was also wandering on the street, as if she was distracted.
Maybe it was unconsciously, maybe it was consciously, but more than half an hour later, he actually wandered to the door of Qi Ruijie's house.
When he first entered the capital, he came to visit. At that time, there was an endless stream of people here. Even the servant who guarded the door had pride on his face. But at this moment, let alone the servants, under the door of the room wide open, Not even a carriage or horse!
"Yan Song, I'm not as good as Duo!"
He said this with emotion, and then thought of another question that was even more tormenting him.
It's this door, he can't get in!
Everyone was already here. If she didn't come in, Sheng Yi felt that she might look down on herself!
But Yan Song's words are still in my ears. This matter involves the court, and maybe there will be no recovery after entering.
As the old saying goes, when Duan was constantly being disturbed, Sheng Yi was so entangled at the door. She originally couldn't bump into Qi Ruijie, but she forced him to wait for him.
While he was beating his chest, he looked up at a moment and saw Qi Ruijie wearing coarse linen clothes at the door!
This factor broke Sheng Yi’s inner balance.
It seems that I have not seen it, just because I have lost my holy grace, and it is really impossible to do such a grand ceremony.
So in just a moment, he completely forgot Yan Song's words because he was not thick-skinned enough. He tried his best to greet Qi Ruijie politely, "Brother Qi, it's been a long time."
Qi Ruijie was also in a daze. Everyone was avoiding him now, but he unexpectedly saw such an old friend today.
At the corner of the street, Yan Song sighed and turned around to leave. Everyone has their own destiny and cannot force it.
But he said that inside the gate, in the courtyard.
Qi Ruijie still served Sheng Yi a glass of water in a decent manner, but the atmosphere was obviously not the kind of reunion between old friends. Qi Ruijie even had to keep his attitude low in front of Sheng Yi, the master of the nation.
"Brother Qi...it doesn't have to be like this between you and me."
As soon as Sheng Yi's comforting words came out, Qi Ruijie suddenly started to cry, "After more than ten years of studying hard in the cold window, everything came to nothing in the blink of an eye. The world is getting colder and colder, and now, only Brother Sheng is willing to come to our house to drink tea!"
When it comes to pain, Qi Ruijie, a grown man, would cry.
"...Is there any way to make amends? Brother Qi has been an official in Beijing for several years, and he always knows some people. Can you please send me a message and ask for mercy? After all, this fame...is hard-earned."….
This is not the most painful,
The most painful thing is that there are children singing wildly along the street in Beijing. Sometimes they will pass by his house and listen to the lyrics: Uncle Liu, a loyal minister, he will bite anyone who mentions war. People are called female ministers nine hundred and ninety-nine.
It's self-evident who sings the song among them. Although Qi Ruijie's surname is not Liu, they have the same nature.
…
…
In the palace.
Liu Jin showed the emperor the note obtained by the people today.
"Your Majesty, those slaves and slaves are all being stared at. Their fame is indeed like beating a snake seven inches away. Now, I guess we all know that Your Majesty is not easy to offend."
Zhu Houzhao was a little surprised, "Who is this Sheng Yi?"
"It's a case from Fenyi County, Jiangxi Province. Do you want my servant to arrest him?"
"Catch him for what?" Zhu Houzhao crushed the note in his hand, put it in the charcoal basin and waved it, "You have to have a purpose in doing things. It's just a move. It's not a matter of whether he will pass the Jinshi exam or not, just because he went After taking one look at Qi Ruijie, you asked someone to arrest him?"
Liu Jin hit a wall, "I'm stupid, so I won't arrest you. Speaking of which, this Sheng Yi has some backbone. His fellow countryman Yan Song actually persuaded him."
Zhu Houzhao's forward steps stopped in the air, "Who?"
"Yan...Yan Song."
There was an incomprehensible fluctuation in the emperor's eyes, but it quickly disappeared. Instead, he smiled softly and said, "I know."
Liu Jin doesn’t know
What does this mean? Could Yan Song be any different?
Ignoring this section, the emperor has already moved to another nana pavilion.
Here, the commanders of the Eighth Guards were already standing solemnly.
According to the general rules, with the dignity of the emperor, there is no need to see a small commander of the First Guard, but Zhu Houzhao had to have his own rules.
There are only a few personal guards in total.
It is also a military force directly controlled by the emperor. These commanders must have to put some thought into it, right?
The eight people in this vote were all people who had studied in the military academy. Jin Yiwei had already found out their details before letting them take this position.
Not only is the issue of clean wealth, but also the daily performance in the military academy. Not only are they extremely smart, courageous and resourceful, but at least they are loyal to the royal family and have the ambition to establish a career.
In fact, there are not that many rebels in the world. As long as the emperor is not his father-killing enemy and can be reused, why not work hard? Loyalty to the emperor itself is a good road. Who is not smart enough to choose a script such as assassination, rebellion or wearing a yellow robe?
Illogical.
Zhu Houzhao valued Zhou Shangwen the most, so he took another look at him after he came in, and found that he was still as tall and tall as ever, full of energy, and somewhat handsome, mainly because of his good figure and regular face.
No wonder, people at that time also called him Flying General.
As for the other seven, they are quite ugly, but appearance is not important, body shape is important. Now that they are standing in a row, they can all be said to be good men of the Ming Dynasty.
"I... all remember your names." The emperor is not as tall as them, but obviously the only one who can calm down at this time is the emperor, "Zhou Shangwen, Tan Wenyi, Sun Xilie, Yu Zichu, Chang Dacheng, Liu Jiangjie, Shi Dahuai and Xu Zhenan. You performed outstandingly in the military academy, and now you each have a personal guard."
"Based on your background, resume and position, you are worthy of the title of the emperor's confidant. If others perform meritorious service, they may be swallowed up by their superiors, but you...the only thing you are afraid of is that you cannot make meritorious service and let me It’s impossible to reward it, right?”
Bang bang!
Zhu Houzhao stretched out his fist and punched Zhou Shangwen's chest, hard, "What a good man! Even the civil servants are not here, let's talk behind closed doors, I really want to go into battle with you to kill the enemy!"
Zhou Shangwen opened his eyes and knelt down in front of the emperor. "A few little Tatars don't need your Majesty's personal action! Your Majesty, please sit down in the Fengtian Hall. Wait a few months and we can capture the captive chief." I await your Majesty’s decision!”
The emperor nodded, and said with some excitement: "Okay! I'm waiting for the news of your triumphant return. In addition, there is one more thing that I won't be happy about if I don't say it!"
"I am a young emperor, and I will make great achievements in the future. You are also at the age to make achievements. How about we, kings and ministers, make an agreement? I will gallop on the battlefield with the eight of you and conquer a large territory. When the time comes, I will make you a king. Wouldn’t it be nice to be granted a title, so that the king and his ministers get along well with each other?!”
The eight people were shocked when they heard this. How could it be like this? .
