Daming Crazy Emperor

Chapter 102 The villain and the virtuous minister

Shoufu Ye Xianggao asked Gao to resign due to illness, but Taichang didn't try to persuade him to stay, so he swiped a pen and said yes.

Immediately afterwards, he replaced Gu Bingqian as the chief assistant of the cabinet, and following Wei Zhongxian's wishes, he brought the new right servant of the Ministry of Rites, Cui Chengxiu, into the cabinet.

This time, Wei Zhongxian smiled crookedly, but Dong Lin was so angry that he wanted to run away.

The emperor made it clear that he was helping Wei Zhongxian seize their power, how can this be done!
How would Donglin or Qingliu express his anger?

They usually play impeachment first to express their dissatisfaction.

If the emperor doesn't listen, the consequences will be serious!
As for who to impeach, it is of course Gu Bingqian and Cui Chengxiu, and it is these two people who have seized their power on behalf of Wei Zhongxian.

If the emperor is obedient, it's fine to remove these two people and replace them, if not.

snort!
Originally, when impeaching people, they have to add up the sums. How can they find out some faults? After all, most of the officials in the court who are able to get them to impeach are good people. They are quite experienced officials and are very careful in their work. , on the surface there is nothing wrong with it.

However, Gu Bingqian and Cui Chengxiu are different, these two people are simply scumbags, with a lot of problems, you don't even need to look for them.

Ever since Gu Bingqian and Cui Chengxiu had just taken office, the memorials to impeach them were like snowflakes floating into the palace, threatening to annihilate the imperial study.

To be honest, these two people are really not a good thing.

Gu Bingqian was notoriously mediocre and shameless, he would flatter, sycophant, and cling to the powerful. To put it bluntly, he was the type who lost face and climbed up by licking other people's ditches.

This kind of person can also work under the Qi Chuzhe Party. Donglin and Qingliu naturally scoffed at him, and they wouldn't even urinate on him.

Therefore, when Dong Lin first came to power, he was very depressed for a while.

However, he soon discovered the towering tree of Wei Zhongxian, Eunuch Wei.

This Eunuch Wei is amazing. Not only is he deeply favored by the emperor, but the crown prince obeys him even more. If he can climb such a high branch, his future will be limitless!

So, he directly asked Wei Zhongxian to find Wei Zhongxian, and vowed to worship Eunuch Wei as his godfather.

This guy, Wei Zhongxian was frightened by this person's shamelessness, you must know that this guy is 20 years older than him!

The son is older than the father, and 20 years older, how can he be the father?
Wei Zhongxian really wanted to accept this shameless person, but he really couldn't be the father!

What should I do if my godfather doesn't recognize me?

Gu Bingqian immediately came up with a compromise solution, asking his youngest son to recognize Wei Zhongxian as his grandfather to show his filial piety.

This means that Wei Zhongxian is still his father, just in a different way.

Wei Zhongxian can accept this method, after all, Gu Bingqian's youngest son is indeed much younger than him, so he can still be a grandfather.

Ever since, Gu Bingqian and Wei Zhongxian became relatives in this way and became a "family".

When Gu Bingqian licked people, it was indeed quite refreshing. He was like a pug in front of Wei Zhongxian, cute and lovable, and Wei Zhongxian appreciated his licking skills quite a lot.

In this way, relying on Wei Zhongxian's support, he rose step by step, entered the cabinet, and became the chief assistant of the cabinet.

Wouldn't it be ridiculous for a mediocre and shameless licking dog to become the chief minister of the cabinet?

Donglin naturally scolded Wei Zhongxian for his absurd behavior, and even faintly scolded the emperor together.

Are you saying it's absurd?
A mediocre and shameless licking dog has become the chief assistant of the Ming cabinet!

In fact, Cui Chengxiu is even more absurd.

This guy is a corrupt official through and through, the corrupt and frightening kind!
To be honest, when the Qi, Chu, and Zhejiang parties were in power, this kind of person was still very promising.

Relying on the money he got from corruption, he stuffed it everywhere, and found the fat vacancies in Huaiyang, and then he became very corrupt in Huaiyang, taking the corrupt officials in Huaiyang and the gang of corrupt officials from the Huaiyang Salt Administration. I almost vomited.

Such a person naturally has no good fruit after Donglin came to power. Originally, he wanted to use the money he got greedy from Huaiyang to buy a Youqian capital censor, to be a governor or something, and to get a bigger one. Gao Panlong, the censor of Zuodu of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, was arrested.

This Gao Panlong was notoriously jealous of evil, and if he was caught, dismissal from office would be considered trivial. If he really committed a crime, he might be beheaded for public display.

Cui Chengxiu was frightened, and hurriedly found Wei Zhongxian, kowtowed and wept, begging to be his adopted son.

Unexpectedly, his trick was really effective. After Wei Zhongxian adopted him as an adopted son, he really had nothing to do. Not only was such a scumbag not punished, he was promoted step by step, and finally entered the cabinet!
To say it's ridiculous, it's really ridiculous!

When Taichang saw Donglin's memorial to impeach Gu Bingqian and Cui Chengxiu, he also felt a little disgusted.

He knew that these were all true, and Donglin did not exaggerate, these two guys were really nothing!
The question is, even if these two people are nothing, they still have to be used. Otherwise, how can we put Dong Lin down?
This power struggle above the court has never talked about right and wrong. He wants to get rid of Dong Lin by boiling frogs in warm water. If he does not cause chaos in the court, he must use these disgusting guys to disgust Dong Lin. !
Of course, using such disgusting things is not without benefits, and the benefits are obvious. When Dong Lin is laid to rest, and he comes to clean up these disgusting things, the court will definitely applaud and praise him. Mingjun.

Therefore, no matter how disgusting things are, use them, the more disgusting the better!
If you impeach me, I will ignore you.

He directly withheld all the memorials for the impeachment of these two guys, and kept them from being issued!

This time, Dong Lin was completely enraged.

What will happen if Donglin is completely angry?

They will even scold the emperor together, and scold in front of their faces!

This morning, when the duet had just started, Liu Zongzhou coughed hard, and then walked to the middle of the royal road with a tragic face, lying on the ground as if on the execution ground, and said loudly: "Your Majesty, Zhuge Kongming has a saying, dear minister, Yuan Xiaoren, the reason why the Han Dynasty prospered this time; dear people, Yuanxian ministers, is why the Han Dynasty fell. The lessons of the rise and fall of the Han Dynasty are known to the world, why do you still use such shameless villains as Gu Bingqian and Cui Chengxiu, Your Majesty? .”

As soon as these words came out, the corners of the shameless Gu Bingqian's mouth couldn't help twitching, and Cui Chengxiu's eyes flickered with coldness, wishing he could chop this guy up and feed them to the dogs!

Alas, these guys are really desperate to fight for power and profit!

Question, what good is it to Daming if you fight back and forth?
As for the virtuous ministers, Daming was brought down by you guys who only know how to fight among themselves!
Taichang couldn't help snorting coldly: "Jiannu is staring at Shanhaiguan now, what kind of virtuous ministers and villains are you talking about? If you belong to a virtuous minister, try to defeat Jiannu. If it doesn't work, try to find a way to solve the food and salaries of the soldiers and civilians in Liaodong." Also, if you know how to fight in the nest every day, how can you have the face to compare yourself to a virtuous minister?"

Uh, what I said, it seems that I am very unreasonable.

Liu Zongzhou was stunned for a moment, then straightened his neck and said: "Your Majesty, Zhao Puyou, a famous Prime Minister of the Northern Song Dynasty, said that if a husband wants to fight against the outside world, he must first settle down at home. Nowadays, treacherous and sycophants are rampant in the court. If you don't first settle inside, how can you fight against the outside world?"

An ass!

If you really want the court to be peaceful, you won't be fighting endlessly here every day.

Taichang couldn't help scolding angrily: "Do you still know the Northern Song Dynasty? Who destroyed the Northern Song Dynasty, ah? The Kingdom of Jin, the Jurchens! Who are the slaves now? The Jurchens! What do they call themselves? It's still the Kingdom of Jin! Knowing that you have to learn from the Northern Song Dynasty when the Kingdom of Jin destroyed you, do you still want to learn from the Northern Song Dynasty court, fighting back and forth, and being destroyed by others? What about your brain? The lesson of the rise and fall of the Han Dynasty is well known, but you don’t know the rise and fall of the Song Dynasty lesson?"

Liu Zongzhou couldn't help being dumbfounded when he heard this.

Seeing this, Taichang couldn't help sneering: "You look like you're going to the execution ground, you just want to ask for a court stick, right? Do you think that you can become a virtuous minister by being given a court stick? Well, I'll give you a court stick , to make you sober. Compare yourself to a virtuous minister, you know what you think in your heart, you go back and think about the difference between you and a villain! Come on, drag down the important [-] boards, and retreat!"
