As a result, the heads of the corrupt officials killed by Luo Xin outside the capital rolled into the capital, and countless officials were dismissed from office. The official circles of the Ming Dynasty were full of turmoil, and the officials called it a dead end!

Moreover, Gao Gong was not satisfied with the capital, he turned his gaze to the place.

The three provinces in the south were all killed by Luo Xin, and the officials were cleared up.But aren't there still four provinces that were not affected?

Are there any corrupt officials in those four provinces?

There are six provinces in the north, and Luo Xin will kill the four disaster-stricken provinces, but what about the remaining two provinces?

So Gao Gong extended his hand into the four provinces in the south and the two provinces in the north.

Luo Xin is still vigorously beheading, providing disaster relief, and suppressing bandits.But four provinces in the north were hit by disasters, enough for Luo Xin to kill for a while.But Wang Xijue, with the support of Gao Gong, first dismissed all those people who were formerly Yan Song.Then he extended his hand to Xu Jie's people.

Things are often like this, the above sentence, the following will be magnified countless times.

Gao Gong only wanted to rectify the administration of officials, but the people below believed that Gao Gong's real purpose was to deal with Xu Jie.So a large number of papers on the impeachment of Xu Jie were placed in front of Emperor Jiajing.Emperor Jiajing was also very depressed at this time.Gao Gong dismissed a group of people, but after all, Gao Gong was not as cruel as Luo Xin, and the reason why Luo Xin was able to kill a lot of people, and even ransacked their homes.That's because it's in a disaster area.Therefore, Gao Gong only dismissed those officials, but did not search their homes.

If Luo Xin did that, he would be understood by scholars. After all, in places where refugees and bandits are everywhere, beheading and ransacking their homes is also a way to appease the hearts of the people and stabilize the place quickly.But if Gao Gong did the same in places that were not affected by the disaster, it would really offend the entire scholarly community.Therefore, Gao Gong didn't do that, nor did he dare to do that.

but……

In this way, there would be no silver for Emperor Jiajing if there was no ransacking of the house!
What is the purpose of Emperor Jiajing agreeing to Gao Gong to do that?
Silver!
Now that Xu Jie is being impeached again, what does Gao Gong want to do?Then he called Gao Gong to the front, looked at Gao Gong coldly and said:
"What's the matter with these notebooks?"

Gao Gong said solemnly: "Your Majesty, I just want to organize the administration of officials, and I don't have the slightest selfishness. And these papers to impeach Mr. Xu are not my heart, so I have to send these papers to Your Majesty, and let Your Majesty decide."

Emperor Jiajing looked at Gao Gong without saying a word, until his heart grew hairy and his back was sweating, and then he said lightly:
"Go back and deal with this matter, I don't want to see such memorials again."

"The minister obeys the order."

Gao Gong stepped back and returned to his room, sitting there with awe in his heart, pondering Emperor Jiajing's mind.At this time, Emperor Jiajing also felt inexplicably irritable, he felt that there had been a lot of chaos recently.The chaos Luo Xin dealt with outside was not over yet, and Gao Gong caused so many chaos in the capital, he completely forgot that he agreed to the rectification of officials, just thinking that there was no money to make.

"Your Majesty, dinner is ready!" Huang Jin walked in lightly.

Emperor Jiajing nodded slightly, and someone put out the dishes. Emperor Jiajing's meal was very small, he only filled half a bowl of rice, and ate it tastelessly.After eating half a bowl of rice, removed the food, and served tea, Emperor Jiajing asked lightly:
"What is Xu Jie doing now?"

"Xu Jie?" Huang Jin thought for a while and said, "He is either at home all day, or he is on duty in the cabinet."

Emperor Jiajing frowned and said, "How are you doing in the house?"

"This..." Huang Jin paused for a moment, but said truthfully, "I didn't say a word."

There was a trace of anger in Emperor Jiajing's eyes and said: "I asked him to be the chief assistant of the cabinet, just to make him a woodcarving?"

"This... No one listens to what Xu Jie said now. Everyone listens to Gao Gong."

Emperor Jiajing was silent, he was not used to it now.I think that when Yan Song was in power, everything was aimed at Emperor Jiajing, and he was submissive and flattering to Emperor Jiajing.Later, after Xu Jie became the chief assistant of the cabinet, he was also very considerate to Emperor Jiajing, and even ignored the victims of the disaster, and built Yuxi Palace for Emperor Jiajing.

However, this Gao Gong is different. He was born in Qingliu, and he is upright and upright.Now, taking advantage of the chaotic situation of Ming Dynasty, Xu Jie is completely suppressed, and then all kinds of forces in the court can be expelled, those who can be suppressed, and those who can be twisted into one rope are all united, making Gao Gong more and more powerful. It became stronger and stronger, even so strong that Emperor Jiajing was sometimes helpless.Just like the impeachment of Xu Jie this time, although Emperor Jiajing stopped it, it could only go so far, but it was not able to deal with those envoys who impeached Xu Jie.

Emperor Jiajing sat there, his thoughts a little hazy.

"The power of the cabinet is too great!"

Emperor Jiajing sighed, but there was nothing he could do. The current cabinet was so powerful that the emperor feared it.Their disciples and old officials are all over the world, and it can be said that there is a lot of response.Even if the emperor wants to dismiss a cabinet, he needs to have a legitimate reason and dare not dismiss it at will.

He felt jealous of Gao Gong in his heart, thinking carefully about all Gao Gong's recent actions, Emperor Jiajing couldn't help but tremble in his heart.He felt that if he continued like this, he might be lifted up by Gao Gong.

"It's time to check and balance Gao Gong. But Xu Jie..."

At this time, Emperor Jiajing was full of disappointment with Xu Jie.At the beginning, he couldn't handle Yan Song, but now he is the chief assistant of the cabinet, but he still can't handle Gao Gong, the second assistant.

Emperor Jiajing was a little helpless to find that with his high-minded and upright character, clean style, and vigorous and resolute means to gather most officials together, he really had a tendency to be ostracized.

High arches must be balanced.

However, he thought about all the officials in the court, and now he really couldn't find someone to check and balance Gao Gong.If you had to choose one person, it would be Xu Jie.

However, you can't just support Xu Jie directly like this, you Xu Jie must take the initiative.You are like a wooden sculpture in the cabinet, you don't say a word, how can I reuse you?
Hold on!
Now that I have suppressed the impeachment of Xu Jie, if Xu Jie is smart, he should take the initiative.At that time, I will support it, and the court will become balanced again.After thinking about all this clearly, Emperor Jiajing felt relieved.He firmly believed that Xu Jie would take action, otherwise what would he do in the cabinet?I have already resigned and returned to my hometown.

but……

Emperor Jiajing did not expect that Xu Jie was not ordinary forbearance, he just wanted to push Gao Gong to an unattainable high position, let Gao Gong inflate, let Gao Gong and Emperor Jiajing have a fierce conflict, and let Gao Gong inflate to the point where he wanted to overtake Jiajing God, that was the time for Xu Jie to make a move.

Therefore, Xu Jie remained silent.But Emperor Jiajing had no candidates, and could only wait depressedly.
