The first assistant of the poor family

Chapter 385

Seeing the sad expression on Xiao Xiege's face, the scribe official asked very cautiously: "Xiao Ge, here is a memorial signed by Nanjing Yushi Lu Kun and his colleagues, would you like to read it?"

Xie Shen was stunned and said, "Nanjing Censor Lu Kun?"

Xie Shen had no impression of this person at all.For officials of the Ming Dynasty, Nanjing is a place for the elderly. Presumably this Lu Kun is also depressed.

"Let's take a look."

It is reasonable to say that he should not read the memorials handed over to the cabinet by officials, but Xie Qian and Li Dongyang are not in the cabinet, and Xie Shen, the third-ranked scholar, can only bite the bullet and work.

He unfolded the memorial and looked at it. At first, his face was normal, but the more he looked at it, the more startled he became, and finally he simply closed his eyes and took a deep breath.

"Since ancient times, if an eunuch wants to be good at sovereignty, he must first instil his will. Like Zhao Gao of Qin Dynasty. Since His Majesty came to the throne, he has favored the eunuch temple and subverted the code of punishment. Eunuchs Ma Yongcheng, Wei Bin, Liu Han, Fu Xing, Luo Xiang, Gu Da The use of seniors is a total deceit, daily affairs and banquets, heaven and heaven, and disasters are reported. Old tricks. Your majesty has a spacious palace, but you don’t know that the poor people’s poor eaves and huts are not sheltered by wind and rain? Clothes and jade food, you don’t know that the people are so cold, hot, rainy, cold and starved! Recently, summer and autumn have been hot and dry, rice prices in the south of the Yangtze River are expensive, and thieves are rampant in the capital. Can you indulge in one's desires and not care about it? Fuwang practice sideways, and the thieves will last forever to eliminate the source of chaos. "

After reading the whole memorial, it can be summed up in one sentence: Your Majesty, you should stop pampering a traitor like Eight Tigers, otherwise you will really be a useless and incompetent king.

Such memorials are of course extremely lethal.

If Xie Shen submitted this joint memorial to Zhengde, and with Zhu Houzhao's temperament, he would definitely jump up and scold his mother in anger, he might directly order Jin Yiwei to arrest people according to the list, and escort them all to Beijing and put them in prison.

Xie Shen couldn't help feeling that these loyal people are too ignorant of politics.

How can politics be so straightforward? If something can be solved by force, why do we need so many counselors?

Of course Zhengde wants to persuade, but this is not the way of persuasion.According to such a method, Emperor Zhengde would not be able to blow his hair.

He wanted to suppress the memorial first, and discuss it after Li Dongyang and Xie Qian came back.

I was thinking that another scribe came to report that Han Wen, Minister of the Ministry of household affairs, had come outside the cabinet.

Xie Shen was really taken aback, and hurriedly said, "Why?"

The clerk shook his head again and again: "I don't know the little one, so I'd better go and see Mr. Ge."

Eventful autumn, eventful autumn!
Xie Shen sighed in his heart.

Neither Li Dongyang nor Xie Qian was there at the critical moment, should he be called Xie Shen to stand alone?
Although his heart was full of complaints, Xie Shen still got to see him.

It stands to reason that foreign ministers would not come to a forbidden place like the cabinet. It seems that Han Wen has something important to do this time.

As soon as he left the gallery, he saw Han Shangshu's melancholy face.

Whenever and wherever, Han Shangshu's face will be full of sorrow.

It seems that if this is not the case, it is impossible to express his feelings of worrying about the world's worries first and then enjoying the world's joys.

Emotions are worthless if they are not shown.
"Han Butang, long time no see!"

Xie Shen greeted him with a smile.

"Old Xiaoge, you have to help the people of the world."

Han Shangshu jumped at Xie Shen directly, and burst into tears.

Xie Shen was really taken aback, and hurriedly said, "Why did Han Butang say that?"

He wondered why the civil servants of the Ming Dynasty like to cry?It's okay to just cry and make a fuss. If you watch this routine of crying, making trouble and hanging yourself, you'll get tired of it.

But Han Shangshu obviously didn't realize it, and performed on his own.

"Your Majesty favors traitors and traitors, and stops court every day. If things go on like this, the Ming Dynasty will be in danger."

Xie Shen is sweating at that waterfall.

He thought to himself that you really dare to say anything, if Emperor Zhengde heard this, he would have to ask Jin Yiwei to break your leg.

"If Han Butang has something to say, you may as well speak up."

Xie Shen didn't bother to continue going around in circles with Han Wen, so he got straight to the point.

Han Wen wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, and sighed: "There is a joint memorandum here, which is to impeach Eight Tigers and other traitors. I hope that Mr. Xiaoge can sign it."

"."

Xie Shen was speechless!
What kind of joint letters are they doing, that's all.

But Hanwen actually forced him to sign it.Gu is very useful among the eight tigers, so Xie Shen should be called to attack his political allies?
Civil officials of the Ming Dynasty really like to make one size fits all, and don't give people a way out.

In desperation, Xie Shen had no choice but to use the dragging formula, and said in a deep voice: "Ahem, this matter has to wait for the first assistant and the second assistant to come back."

But Han Wen shook his head and said: "The two elders have already signed their names, and now they have entered the inner palace to ask to see His Majesty. Not only that, the six ministers and nine ministers have all signed their names, and you are the elder of the elders."

Hearing this, Xie Shen really wanted to vomit blood.

It turned out that Hanwen had already planned everything.

It means that in the end, he is the only one who doesn't know.

Well, coercing others and keeping them from knowing, this Han Shangshu is really interesting.

"Han Butang, let Xie take a look at the memorial first."

Han Wen shook his head and said, "Come and read it to Mr. Xiaoge."

After finishing speaking, regardless of whether Xie Shen agreed or not, he read it aloud.

"Recently, the political affairs of the government are changing, and your Majesty's imperial court is getting late. Looking up at the holy face, the sun will be clear. It is said that the eunuch Liu Jin and other eight tigers set up tricks and fakes, and are obsessed with lewdness. Horses, eagles, comedians, and dramas are wrongly presented. To Guiding Wancheng to trade with outsiders, not enough day trips, and night after night, exhausting energy, loss of morality, and causing chaos in the way of heaven. It is all because Liu Jin and others only know how to deceive the emperor, so they do their own selfishness, without knowing the fate of Wu Tian The great cause of the ancestors is all in His Majesty. If you lose your spirit and lose your integrity in daily life, even if you are a fan of this generation, it will not help. Today, Liu Jin, Ma Yongcheng and others have committed crimes. If they are not cured, they will never forget their fears in the future. His Majesty Fu Wang worked hard, cut off his personal love, sued the two palaces, issued orders to hundreds of bureaucrats, clarified the canonical punishment, subdued the ranks of disasters and chaos, and kept the primate forever."

After all, it is a memorandum written by Shangshu Chen, so there is no choice in the style of writing, but Xie Shen always feels that there is something wrong.

Lu Kun, the censor of Nanjing on the front foot, jointly wrote a letter, and Han Wen, the Minister of the Ministry of Accounts, also wrote a letter on the back foot. Isn't this planned?
If this is the case, it means that Emperor Zhengde will commit the crime if he threatens to coerce him.

After all, not long after Zhu Houzhao ascended the throne, the throne has not yet been firmly established.

In this case, if the ministers are grouped together, there is still a certain deterrent effect.

But if this is done, the civil servants and eunuchs will completely tear their skins apart, and no matter who wins, the court will split.

In the original history, Liu Jin narrowly prevailed in desperation, causing civil servants to resign one after another.

How will history develop in this time and space?
