Chapter 94: The Beginning of the Party Strife (2)
The two of them talked and laughed a little, and Sun Ruizhen looked sad, and suddenly changed the subject. He said, "Zhou Zhitai is really not a human being!"
These words sounded ignorant at first, but Ji Zhichang was a man in the game. He understood the reason deeply, but just shook his head and smiled: "Your Majesty Ying, don't have to sigh for this matter. He was just getting the emperor's family, and he grabbed a knife to write for his writing. The comments were also the subject. However, although the emperor was young, he was a wise king. Didn't he say much?
The disagreement between Sun Ruizhen and Zhou Zupei is a well-known secret in the court. He was much earlier than Zhou Zupei's subject name, but he was also an official of the Six Ministry of Justice. Moreover, the other party's Minister of Justice was much better than his Minister of Rites. Especially after Chen Fuen's affairs, Zhou Zupei invited the emperor's favor and walked into the military plane in one fell swoop. The two people who had met Pingli were now meeting again, but they had to pay their respects first, saying "Master Zhongtang". How could it be that human feelings?
It was nothing at all. What was wrong was that Sun Ruizhen returned from a job in Jiangning. She had just passed the imperial examination and was studying in the Hanlin Academy and wrote a memorial saying that Sun Ruizhen "suppresses the people to serve the people, and repeatedly debates, and her lips are burning. She could not achieve the saint of the emperor who rejected the barbarians outside the capital........ tracing the origin, she said that Sun Ruizhen had five unavailable and ten who could be killed!
After the memorial was finished, everyone was very excited to read it! Since Xue Fuchen bought Chen Fuen's case last year, Shen Huai's case for Wenqing, and Yuan Jiasan's case for three complaints for the emperor, people in the Qingliu felt the emperor's attitude towards these censors, and they had a tactful choice to avoid it for a while. Few words with such intense words reached the heavenly listening.
However, when Chu Decan wrote this memorial, Sun Ruizhen didn't take it seriously at all. He knew that Chu Decan was just a student of Hanlin Academy, and more importantly, he had no words of blame and had no reason to offend the big bosses in the court for no reason. This was just a game of criticism and joyfulness. He didn't take it seriously.
However, the development of the matter was beyond the expectations of many people: Zhou Zupei, who had ulterior motives, inspired this memorial, took the manuscript, and then found his student, Yu Guangzhuo, who was the censor, copied a copy, and added: "...I really don't know how kind the officer is." Then he submitted it to the imperial court.
‘…I really don’t know…’ The sentence is a very serious wording. There is no way, so Sun Ruizhen had to submit a memorial to defend herself. The emperor did not say much, but chose to stay at home. Generally speaking, when the emperor was reserved about the content in the chapter, he would often choose this approach. However, in this way, the relationship between Sun Ruizhen and Zhou Zupei completely deteriorated.
Thinking about the past, it is no wonder that Sun Ruizhen was so annoyed. This time, he was willing to agree so happily to Weng Xincun’s entrustedness, which was not related to this matter: his idea was to help Weng Xincun; on the other hand, he wanted to take this opportunity to defeat Qi Junzao, who was leaning on the Great Wall in the Military Affairs Office!
When Ji Zhichang spoke, he also had a vague dissatisfaction with Zhou Zupei. Sun Ruizhen secretly called out in her heart. She immediately picked up the wine glass and took a sip, and continued, "I won't mention it next to Zhou Zhitai, but the word "little" is just the word "little"! It's really far from you, Lord Zhongtang."
"Forget it, forget it! Who doesn't know Zhou Zhitai's measurement? People say, 'The prime minister is so good at raising a boat', he is the prime minister..." Ji Zhichang raised his glass with a smile.
"That's not what I said, Jiugong, as far as I know, Zhou Zhitai and Zeng Disheng have been dissatisfied for a long time!"
"Oh?" Ji Zhichang was drunk and took note of the other party's words: "Why do you say this?"
"After the last time Zeng Disheng thanked him for his gratitude, Zhou Zhitai people said this matter, and always believed that Lord Zeng was given a strict dismissal, but he was very angry after all. He believed that this was contrary to the emperor's words of "If you have any mistakes, you will be punished." As a punishment, he wanted to imitate Zhao Rongfang's words."
Ji Zhichang recalled it, and it seemed that Zhou Zupei had no mark of such remarks about this matter in his memory. However, for many years, it was impossible to face the other party's lying. Instead, he became interested and subconsciously put down his chopsticks, split his fingers and crawled with his short beard under his chin: "Is there such a thing?"
"I'm also listening to others' words, or following the crowd!"
"Since it's a matter of following the crowd, I don't think it's true." Ji Zhichang smiled and said, "Well, I'll tell you Brother Sun. In the future, I will be rewarded!"
"Where, where! Ruizhen is honored to be loved by the Lord of the Central Hall!"
***************
Having a firm view in his heart, Ji Zhichang began to look for opportunities to make suggestions. Not long after, a former Guangzhou General Zaiqia was the son of Yishan, the 14th brother of Shizong and the sixth-generation grandson of the famous Yin?, a Jinshi in the 24th year of Daoguang. He was a famous scholar among the Eight Banners. He was a famous scholar in the Eight Banners. He saw that the people's livelihood was difficult, rumors spread everywhere, and people's hearts were floating, and they were hurt. He submitted a memorial to advise and advise six things: clear promotion and demotion, special responsibility, detailed examination, strict leadership limit, deception and obedience, and cautious forgiveness.
After the emperor ascended the throne, he opened up a wide range of messages and kept very few memorials. What he said was related to the ministers in the court, and the emperor naturally handed over the military affairs office.
After reading this sealed memorial, Ji Zhichang felt aroused. The rest of the article was fine, but only one "special responsibility". Zaiqiu vaguely mentioned in the article that after the emperor ascended the throne, he valued Han ministers and looked down on Manchus. Among the six ministers and nine ministers, Han scholars and officials are gathered together. Apart from Sai Shanga, who was the chief military officer, but gave up everything, there was only one Zaiquan who supervised the nine gate admiral. These are the only two important Manchus who can take action. The others are just the ministers and ministers of each department.
As we all know, such a group of people are all free and have nothing to do with their salary. Therefore, it is mentioned in the article that it is better to give full staff the opportunity to contribute to their ancestors.
In his opinion, such a note was very useful to him and He Rulin. With this understanding, Ji Zhichang discussed with He Rulin and decided that he would tell himself. So, after finding time, Ji Zhichang replied to the emperor: "The old minister, the emperor appreciated and promoted him, and he had many jobs. He was really powerful and unsatisfied. I want to ask for an order to remove him from his position as the President of the National History Museum and the Secretary of the Lifan Academy."
The emperor did not think much, and Zaiqian's comments made him feel very embarrassed. After all, what the other party was doing was not false. It was an indisputable fact that there were a lack of Manchus and Han people in the court. I am very satisfied with Ji Zhichang's approach of actively sharing the worries of the king and father: "Yes, I'm sure."
"Yes!" Ji Zhichang kowtowed and thanked him, and continued: "Apart from the weak ministers, Zhou Zupei lacks a lot. I think he can be removed from his post as Minister of Justice?"
"What?"
"Reply to the emperor's words: The Minister of Justice has heavy official duties, and he rarely has time to go to the ministry to take care of things when he is in military affairs. Therefore, according to the ancestors' conventions, once he enters the military affairs, he can only manage the ministry, but not to serve as the ministry. This is to protect the energy of the ministers; secondly, it is to make the ministry's affairs not have any impact on the temporary departure of the person."
The emperor always felt that Ji Zhichang's words were a bit plausible. The Ministry of Justice was never as busy as the Ministry of Revenue and the Ministry of Personnel. Why? So he pondered for a while.
He Rulin made a statement at the right time, saying: "Mr. Zhou Xuanli is old, smart and capable, and is still young. There will be a long time to be reused by the emperor in the future."
This means that the future is long, and there are opportunities to be favored. The emperor thought about it. Since Zhou Zupei was promoted from Xing Shang to the military aircraft, there have been many rumors about his arrogance in the court and the country. It may not be a good thing to teach him a lesson at this time: "Then, let's write an edict."
"Yes!" Ji Zhichang was overjoyed when he heard the emperor relieved. He was afraid of leaking the news, so he stopped going back to the military office. He knelt down and came out. He found paper and pen at the eunuch's resting place, and took it back to the hall with a wave.
"Ji Zhichang, Zhou Zupei was busy with official duties, so he went to the president of Ji Zhichang National History Museum and the Minister of the Lifan Academy. He went to the Minister of Justice of Zhou Zupei."
The emperor looked at it and felt a little suspicious: "Do you just write it like this?" He thought it was too simple.
"The emperor's wiseness is to use human authority to control it, and to remove the shortcomings without any declaration."
"Okay." The emperor was very satisfied with the answers of these few words, and nodded immediately to check.
When the diary reported, Zhou Zupei seemed to have a slap on someone and was speechless. It was Chen Guifen who reminded him that he hurriedly gave him a thank-you.
After thinking for a long time, a suffocation in my chest was always difficult to calm down. After careful investigation, I soon found out about the past. I felt so hated Ji Zhichang and He Rulin in my heart, but the imperial edict was placed there, and everything was already a foregone conclusion and it was difficult to change.
He was also the one who had been in the officialdom for many years, and his heart was full of disappointment, but he did not see Qi Rong at all on the surface. On the contrary, he was still in the daily life as usual. Moreover, he was even more respectful to Ji Zhichang and He Rulin.
Ji He and the others knew that this matter would not be settled like this, so they were wary of each other, so there was no need to say much about this.
