Jin Yiwei worked so hard, which had a lot to do with Li Qing's previous hemorrhage.
But more importantly, Jin Yiwei needs a facade, and at the same time, he also wants to use this opportunity to expand Jin Yiwei's influence again.
How could Zhu Yuanzhang not know about the battle between the two sides, but he did not stop it. He also wanted to increase Jin Yiwei's influence.
There is no other reason than that Zhu Yuanzhang is old.
If he wanted to pave the way for his son, he had to support an independent force. The Jinyiwei had no contact with both civil and military affairs and only obeyed his orders. Naturally, it was the best choice.
Jinyiwei is extremely efficient. In just two days, several officials discovered illegal activities.
When the evidence was conclusive, Zhu Yuanzhang was not polite and immediately chopped off the heads of several people.
There was nothing wrong with Li Qing, but the person who impeached him had not passed away for years. Only then did the officials realize the seriousness of the matter, but they did not back down, but continued to expand the scope of the impeachment.
The target of impeachment is no longer Li Qing, but the entire Jinyiwei.
After two years of development, Jin Yiwei's power and influence have become so great that the officials cannot tolerate it.
They understand that if Jin Yiwei is allowed to develop barbarically, they will not end well.
Not only civil servants thought this way, but military generals also thought so.
Therefore, the two sides who had always been at odds reached a united front and collectively opened fire on Jinyiwei.
The civil and military forces joined forces, but even Jin Yiwei's current power could not bear it. Under high pressure, Jin Yiwei became more united.
Mao Xiang and other senior Jinyi guards understood that if they gave in at this critical moment, the power of Jinyiwei would plummet.
In the center of power, if you don’t advance, you will retreat!
They are also willing to go all out, whether you are a civil servant or a military general, if you impeach me, I will investigate you, your family, and everything about you.
Jin Yiwei's mad dog bites people randomly, which makes all officials miserable, but they also hate it even more.
The conflict between the two sides has escalated again!
Seeing that in just a few days, things were developing in an uncontrollable direction, Zhu Biao couldn't sit still.
"Father, we can't go on like this."
"It's okay, it won't change the world." Zhu Yuanzhang didn't take it seriously and planned to continue watching the show.
Zhu Biao sighed and advised, "If the water is clear, there will be no fish. I hope my father will think twice. Furthermore, even if you have to use Chongdian, you shouldn't do it at this juncture!"
His tone was pleading, "We have already killed so many people in the Guo Huan case. If we keep killing more, there will really be no people left to do the work. Let's wait and wait until the official sources are added before we investigate again, okay?"
Besides, the army is about to go on an expedition, so it’s not appropriate to chill the general’s heart! "
What Zhu Biao said made sense. Zhu Yuanzhang pondered for a moment and nodded slowly: "Okay, let's pause for a moment."
After a pause, he said sternly: "If the water is clear, there will be no fish. This saying should not come from the mouth of a prince like you. If you think so, then the water in our Ming Dynasty will really never be clear. "
"My son made a mistake, please punish me."
"Forget it, be more careful in the future." Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hand, "Those who are in positions of power must not just live with everything. If you are kind to the officials, you will be cruel to the people."
"My son understands, but..."
"But we are too mean and ungrateful, aren't we?"
"I don't dare." Zhu Biao apologized quickly, "I'm afraid of hurting the hearts of the ministers."
Zhu Yuanzhang smiled disdainfully, "Their hearts are not worth mentioning in front of the people's hearts!
It's useless to win their hearts.
In the previous dynasty, I did not lose my heart as a minister. Damn it, as long as I am an official, I will have a fat head and a fat stomach, but what will be the result? "
Zhu Yuanzhang said angrily, "Officials are rampant and lawless, and the people are burdened with heavy taxes and it is difficult to live. Your grandparents and uncles all starved to death. What's even more annoying is that our parents have been farming all their lives, but they don't even have a place to bury them when they die." …Ahem…”
The reason why Lao Zhu hates corrupt officials so much is because he feels the pain, so he punishes them severely.
"Father, please calm down. I know I was wrong." Zhu Biao quickly stroked his chest with a look of remorse.
It took Zhu Yuanzhang a while to recover: "Biao'er, remember, as long as the people live well, the country will be as strong as a rock. On the contrary, even if the officials are grateful to you and the people have no life, they will still rebel."
"My son, please remember this."
"Okay, we're fine." Zhu Yuanzhang said, "New Year's Day will be the day after tomorrow. Give them a holiday in advance and let them relax a bit. Go and declare the decree!"
"My son, I obey."
…
With a single order, the turbulent temple calmed down again. Lao Zhu only used the words "New Year's Day" to resolve the matter peacefully.
However, the situation has calmed down, but this matter is not over yet. The two sides are making such a big fuss that one side cannot end it without bleeding heavily.
For now, it's just a temporary truce.
Li Qing was not idle either. The incident started because of him. It was inconvenient for him to take action to avoid suspicion, but he still had to be humane and sophisticated.
So, he took his colleagues and went to the Jiaofang Division.
After having fun in Wuyou Cave, the group's relationship became better than before, to the point of wearing a pair of trousers.
In a flash, it’s New Year’s Eve again.
On the twenty-ninth day of the twelfth lunar month, spring couplets were posted and lanterns were hung. The small courtyard was ablaze with red, which was very festive.
The women were steaming buns, making dumplings, and croquettes... They were so busy that their feet did not touch the floor, but they were so busy that they were happy and happy.
The pink face is stained with powder, and it is nice and tight. It is chattering, very lively, and full of New Year's flavor.
In the evening, Li Qing took out the fireworks he bought before, opened the firecracker, blew them, and lit the fuse.
"Bah..."
The fireworks fuse quickly burned out and blossomed in the expectant eyes of the three women.
"Bang bang bang..."
The fireworks rose into the night sky, exploded, and shot out countless sparks, forming the shape of a flower, which was really beautiful.
The fireworks of this era are not as good as those of later generations, but they are not much worse. There are various shapes of fireworks, which are very enjoyable to watch.
The faces of the three girls were reflected in red, and they were filled with sweet smiles of joy, overflowing with happiness.
In pursuit of visual impact, Li Qing always lit several twenty-tael fireworks at the same time, and they were all set off in less than a quarter of an hour.
"Sir, are there any more?" The three women still had more to say.
"No..." Li Qing spread his hands and just uttered one word, but the next words were drowned by the explosion.
Looking up, there is such a big firework.
There is no shortage of wealthy people in the capital, and there are too many who are willing to spend money to buy fireworks. Soon, hundreds of flowers are blooming in all directions.
As far as the eye can see, there are fireworks going off.
Not to mention the three girls, Li Qing was also amazed. After watching it for a while, he felt that it was not enough and said to the three girls:
"You can't see clearly in the courtyard. Let's go and have a look on the roof."
Wan Ling said regretfully, "Sir, the ladder at home is not long enough."
"It's okay, I'll take you to jump up there." After saying that, Li Qing picked her up, and Xiao Nizi held her arms around his neck habitually, as if she was at her mercy.
Damn it, what kind of fireworks are you watching... Li Qing secretly regretted it, but since he had already said his words, it was hard to break his promise.
After smelling the fragrance, he mobilized his true energy and suddenly exerted force on his legs, "Get up."
Wan Ling felt that the scenery on the ground had instantly lowered. When she came back to her senses, she was already firmly on the roof.
"Sir, you...you can fly?" Xiao Nizi was very surprised.
"Oh, this is called Qinggong." Li Qing pinched her straight nose, "Sit tight, I'll get Hongxiu Lianxiang up."
The three women were light and graceful, and Li Qing managed to lift them up effortlessly.
Sitting on the roof and watching the fireworks, the visual effect suddenly increased several times. The four of them looked at the fireworks with happy faces.
There are indeed many rich people in the capital, and the fireworks come one after another, making it dizzying.
Finally, the fireworks were set off in the direction of the palace. They were extremely gorgeous and the quality of the fireworks was overwhelming in all aspects. However, they only stopped for less than two quarters of an hour.
"Lao Zhu is still as picky as ever." Li Qing muttered and continued to look in other directions.
But after seeing the fireworks set off by the palace, other fireworks were indifferent. After watching them for a while, my interest waned.
It was late at night, a gust of wind came, and the chill became more obvious.
"Let's go back to the room!"
"Well, okay." The three girls also enjoyed themselves, and Wan Ling said with a blushing face, "Sir, I will stay up late tonight, and the three maids have a song for you."
"oh?"
Li Qing asked tentatively, "Is it the kind of song I want?"
"Yeah." Lianxiang hummed, "I promise it's better than Jiaofangsi."
Hongxiu said arrogantly: "The ones at home are the best."
Li Qing smiled and nodded: "Okay, let's go and watch the New Year's Eve."
…
…
…
New Year's Eve.
Lianxiang sings in a low voice, red sleeves play the flute;
Wan Ling's temples are messy and golden steps are shaking, Li Qing's lyrics are the most charming...
