Chapter 522 The Sadness of the Abandoned Son

Chapter 522 The Sadness of the Abandoned Son
"Severe punishment! This matter must be severely punished! It is lawless!"

"Isn't this the behavior of gangsters? They robbed the Baoyuan Bureau with someone. Where does this put the court?!"

"That's why they didn't carry weapons, but they are soldiers and horses of the imperial court! They obeyed the order of a marquis to rob the Baoyuan Bureau. Isn't this reckless?!"

In the Wenhua Palace, officials from the six ministries of court, the Secretary of General Administration, Dali Temple, and the Inspectorate were furiously denouncing him.

There was supposed to be a small court meeting today, but Zhu Yunxi found an excuse to shirk and didn't come, and he didn't show up at all.

What are you doing here at this time?
Did you hear civil servants arguing together?
Did you hear how they accused the generals?

Even if I heard it, how should I make a decision?Is it on the side of the civil servants or on the side of the generals?
It is even more inappropriate to be fair. Could it be possible that he can recover the silver coins, punish Wang Bi and Cao Zhen and cut off their Marquis?
Since it's impossible to satisfy everyone no matter what you do, then simply don't show up and let the people below go to quarrel.

Jing Qing, the censor of the Procuratorate, said: "Now we have to find out one thing, that is whether Wang Bi and Cao Zhen have the documents from the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Households. This is the key, and we must not be sloppy!"

"If he has documents, do we still need to talk about them here?" Fu Youwen, the servant of the household department, said: "The household department has never issued such documents!"

"Not even the Ministry of Industry!"

Qin Kui said: "The big seal of the Ministry of Industry has been kept with me, how could they have documents! This is clearly a robber! What else can we discuss!"

Baoyuan Bureau is a subordinate unit of the Ministry of Industry, and something happened below, and he, as a minister, naturally had a hard time.

A yamen of the Ministry of Industry was robbed by generals, isn't that a slap in the face!

It would be fine if people didn't know what they did in private, but now this matter has become known to both civil and military people, and it can't be covered up even if it wants to be covered up!

This face is really slapped!
So even though Qin Kui is usually kind and honest, honest people are also very angry!

Aren't you bullying honest people! (Coupled with Brother Kun's expression pack)
Yu Xin said: "Everyone, Wang Bi and Cao Zhen took the silver coins to the Beijing camp last night, and distributed the silver coins to the soldiers of the Beijing camp for them to exchange.
Early this morning, they took the receipts received to the household department for verification, and a large part has already been handed in, and the rest said to wait until all the silver coins have been exchanged before handing over...and..."

Yu Xin looked at the crowd, and said: "From the current point of view, Wang Bi and Cao Zhen have not exchanged for themselves, and I am afraid that they will not fill their own pockets..."

Everyone turned their attention to Yang Jing, because it was up to him to convict the two of them.

Yang Jing, Shangshu of the Ministry of Justice, greeted the crowd and said: "This matter is already very clear. The Marquis of Dingyuan, Bi Jingchuan, and Cao Zhen, led people to snatch the silver coins of Baoyuan Bureau without the order of the court.

Although I haven't corrupted the law for the time being, and I haven't accepted bribes, but there are still charges of misbehavior and ignoring the government's orders..."

"Since there are charges, let's go to impeachment, this time we must not be lightly spared!"

"That's right! Military generals have always acted unruly. This time, we can't let it go. I will impeach them and cut off their Marquis!"

"I still have to report to Your Majesty, please make an order to stop the silver coins that will be exchanged by them, and to recover the others. The silver coins must be returned to the Baoyuan Bureau intact!"

Several officials probably felt that they had taken advantage of Wang Bi and Cao Zhen this time, so they were more excited and kept discussing how to deal with the aftermath.

But when an official happily uttered the last words, the entire Wenhua Palace instantly became silent.

"Uh... what's wrong?"

Seeing that everyone was looking at him, the official felt uncomfortable and scratched his head, not knowing what was wrong with what he said.

The Tongzheng Jianyi of the General Administration Department took two steps forward and said: "Dear colleagues, this morning when I just arrived at the General Administration Department, I received an order from the internal officials. Your Majesty already knew about it, because the two of them only took Silver coins are out of order,
Order to punish Wang Bi, Marquis of Dingyuan and Cao Zhen, Marquis of Jingchuan for half a year, so that they can reflect on themselves, His Majesty's order has been made, and it may have been delivered by now..."

"Um……"

Illegal?

Is it just a violation of the rules?
This is clearly a robbery, okay?
The courtiers all frowned, and they must be dissatisfied with such a punishment. After all, it is too light to expose the matter after half a year of fine!
But His Majesty's decree has already been made, which means that the matter has already been decided, and the punishment has already been decided, so there can be no more additions, right?
Where does this put His Majesty's majesty?
Tie Xuan raised his eyes to look at the crowd, and said: "Someone said just now that they want to recover the silver coins that have been exchanged by the soldiers. This matter... I have no objection, but even if you want to recover, how can you tell your majesty? His Majesty's decree?

As a minister, the worry of the monarch at that time! "

Qi Tai frowned and said: "Since it has been exchanged, how can it be confiscated now! What's more, His Majesty has ordered!
If any colleague thinks what should be done, feel free to play it, and then participate in this matter in the name of the department!Please forgive the Ministry of officials for not agreeing! "

Chasing silver coins?

Just a joke!
These silver coins have already been distributed to the soldiers, and if you collect them from them at this time, isn't it obvious that you are looking for trouble!
Anyone who dares to collect silver coins is humiliating the soldiers and provoking!

The grievances of those big soldiers have nowhere to dissipate, they dare to kill with knives!
At that time, so many soldiers in the Beijing camp will attack them in groups, and death will be in vain!Can the imperial court still kill soldiers?
Still thinking about asking His Majesty to give an order?
Isn't this putting Zhu Yunxi on the fire!
Whoever strongly opposes at this time, whoever gives the order to hand and foot silver coins at this time, is the enemy of the soldiers!
Do you want the military spirit?
It is important to know that the wrath of the civilians, five steps of bloodshed, the world is nothing!
Your Majesty is not confused anymore, how could he make such a stupid decree!And why were Wang Bi and Cao Zhen punished so lightly?
That is because the matter has already been done, and the soldiers have already benefited. If the emperor pretends to be a white face and punishes them heavily at this time, what will the soldiers think?
They will feel that His Majesty is being forced to do nothing!How should Zhu Yunxi show kindness at this time?It's good not to provoke resentment!

So no matter what, Wang Bi and Cao Zhen will be fine. The punishment of fine... Maybe it's just to bet on the mouths of their civil servants...

He also confiscated silver coins, so how can such a mindless word be said!

Minister of the Ministry of War, Ru Yu said, "Since His Majesty has issued an order to punish them, then let's not cause more trouble. The soldiers also have merit in protecting the stable place in the capital... Let's take it as a reward from the court..."

Everyone was silent and didn't speak. What's the point of talking more?

Therefore, the fierce condemnation from the Wenhua Palace became completely silent within a few breaths.

Everyone discussed two or three things, but they were all interested and bored, and had no interest, so they ended the discussion after a while and went back separately.

Now everyone understands that this matter has come to an end and cannot be further investigated.

But my heart is not happy after all!
In any case, the generals have the upper hand!
But this is something that can't be helped. Civil servants are very polite, who knows why the other party is so... not talking about martial arts, cheating and sneak attacking...

"Your Majesty, the discussion in the Wenhua Palace is over..."

In Kunning Palace, Zhu Yunxi was breaking sesame seed cakes into small pieces to feed the goldfish in the pond, when Wang Zhong came to report.

"Well, what did they say?"

Wang Zhong recounted the discussion of the officials in the Wenhua Palace, and also told about the suggestion that Wang Bi and Cao Zhen should be severely punished and the silver coins should be recovered.

"Your Majesty, however, such a proposal has not received any response from the courtiers, and no one has paid attention to it. Instead, the matter has just been dropped...

But the servants looked at it, and the civil servants were still frowning, as if they were not very happy...

Without turning his head, Zhu Yunxi continued to feed the goldfish and said, "It would be strange if they were happy! Forget it, if you are not happy, you will not be happy. How can everything be as you want, and I am not a silver coin, so I can't do it..."

Throwing a few more pieces of debris into the pond, attracting goldfish scrambling, really lively.

"Uh, Your Majesty, the Commander of Jin Yiwei, Jiang Yu, is still kneeling outside the palace gate..."

"Let him get up and do what he needs to do."

"Yes, the servant obeyed..."

For Jiang Yu, it can be said that he even has the desire to die!
If things went wrong, he always had to make a gesture, otherwise he would be too ignorant, so after he found out what was going on, he ordered the Jin Yiwei below to keep an eye on this matter, and he hurried to apologize.

After hearing Wang Zhong's words from His Majesty, Jiang Yu's uneasiness settled down. After expressing his gratitude, a gust of breeze blew, and he couldn't help shivering.

Only then did I realize that the clothes inside had long been soaked in cold sweat...

In Dingyuan Hou's Mansion and Jingchuan Hou's Mansion, after Wang Bi and Cao Zhen received the order to punish themselves, the stone hanging in their hearts fell to the ground.

Although he guessed that there should be no major incidents this time, but if there is no result, he will inevitably feel uneasy.

Hearing the penalty of half a year's salary, Wang Bi also felt pain for a while, but he also knew that such a punishment was considered light, so he was grateful for Dade's decree of gratitude.

And ordered people to close the door to thank the guests, and prepared to "face the wall and think about the past and reflect on it" at home...

After the soldiers of the Jingying and some guards exchanged the silver coins, they immediately sent the silver coins back home through various channels to subsidize their families.
This is the first batch of silver coins of Ming Dynasty, so when their family members used silver coins to buy things, they immediately aroused their popularity, and even wanted to get one even at the expense of copper coins and items.

As a result, the value of silver coins also increased steadily, and some people even paid three times the price in exchange for one.

As ordinary soldiers and military households compiled by the imperial court, they are almost all poor families. These silver coins will not change their lives, but at least they will help.

Zhu Yunxi is very satisfied with this situation.

Because poor people do not have much silver deposits, and the silver coins they can exchange for are limited, and they basically have no power to buy bulk goods.
Therefore, they usually use silver coins to buy the necessities of life, such as rice noodles, rapeseed, or cloth needlework.

If it was the other way around, if the gentry were allowed to exchange for a large amount of silver coins, and these silver coins were concentrated in their hands, what would they do?
The first is to buy acres, carry out land mergers, and then trade large sums, hoard them, and drive up prices!they are no longer like these things

Comparing the two, you will know what to do.

So Zhu Yunxi was very satisfied with what Wang Bi and Cao Zhen did, but it was a pity that this could only be done once...

In a house, there are rockery and rocks in the small garden, exotic flowers and plants, and rare flowers and trees.

Judging from the decoration of this house, although it is not magnificent or luxurious, anyone with a discerning eye knows that the construction cost here is definitely quite a lot...

At this time, an old man in his 60s was sitting on a chair, and beside him stood a few young maids who were young.

These maids were busy quietly, some lighted sandalwood, some beat his legs and rubbed his shoulders to relax his body,

Some maids lighted silver powder charcoal and put an antique teapot on it to boil water, and some maids lightly placed a set of exquisite tea sets,
The old man's eyes were slightly closed, enjoying the service of the maid, obviously very comfortable.

"Master, the third young master is here, do you want to see him?" The housekeeper tiptoed to him and asked softly.

The old man waved his hand, the steward understood his meaning, greeted the maids and retreated.

"Father, I'm back. Is father still in good health during this time?"

The person who came was the son who had dealt with Wang Yi, and he told Wang Yi that his name was Gao Yuan.

"Well, it's okay..."

The old man opened his eyes and pointed to the stool in front of him to motion him to sit down.

"Thank you father."

Gao Yuan thanked him politely, then carefully sat down on the stool, poured the boiled tea into the cup and handed it to his father, "Father, please use it."

The old man took a sip, his expression was very calm, and he didn't speak.

Gao Yuan took a deep breath, summoned up his courage and said, "Father, the batch of goods my son bought last time is still in Ningbo Mansion. You can see if you have made a move. Putting money on the goods is not a long-term solution after all..."

"Just wait for a while, don't worry, the longer you wait, the more you can see if there is any problem, what do you think?"

Gao Yuan didn't agree with it in his heart, but he didn't dare to show it. He hurriedly laughed and said, "What my father said is that it's safe to wait. It's my son who is in a hurry. Thank you for your teaching!"

The old man nodded, and said calmly: "You must remember that doing business to earn temporary money is not a long-term solution, but stability is the most important thing. Our family can have today, just to seek stability. You Understand?"

"The child is educated, thank you father, the child will be safe in the future!"

"Do you understand what stability is?" The old man stared at him, as if he only wanted to see through his inner thoughts.

Gao Yuan forced a smile from his gloomy face, and agreed with his father, "My son understands that the elder brother is much better than the son in all aspects. He has always been by his father's side and has been taught by his father's words and deeds. In the future, the son will teach his elder brother educational……"

The old man shook his head, "Don't worry about this batch of goods, your elder brother can take care of them."

"Father, I..."

Gao Yuan actively wanted to fight for something for himself, but when he saw his father's cold eyes, he couldn't help but stop talking.

After the old man finished speaking, the cup of tea was also finished. Gao Yuan reached out to pick it up, but the old man put the teacup on the coffee table beside him...

"Don't worry about family affairs in the future. Didn't your elder brother give you three shops and a rice shop? From now on, take care of your own business..."
