Chapter 1086

At five o'clock, the east was pale, and Gao Yihuan opened his arms. It was still Concubine Zhao with the maid, who put on the dragon robe and the winged crown for him.

Under the service of the maid, Gao Yihuan dressed neatly, rinsed his mouth, took another sip of strong tea to refresh himself, and then left the bedroom and went to Fengtian Hall.

In front of the palace gate, officials wearing official robes, black gauze hats, and holding ivory wats gathered and chatted in low voices. Most of the topics were about Liu Yumo.

The clock rang, and the palace gates opened wide. All the officials adjusted their robes one after another, and then passed through the palace gates according to their grades, entered the palace one by one, stepped on the gray stone steps, entered the Fengtian Hall, and stood on both sides.

Not long after, the guards in the hall said loudly: "Your Majesty is here!"

Immediately, all the officials bowed their heads, wearing a dragon robe and a winged crown, the mighty Emperor Wei walked out and sat down on the throne.

"Your Majesty, my lord, long live my emperor, long live, long live!"

All the officials saluted in unison, knelt down neatly, and the momentum was magnificent.

Gao Yihuan slightly raised his hand, "Everyone is flat!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" All the officials thanked each other, and then stood on both sides.

Gao Yihuan glanced at the crowd, landed on Chen Mingxia, then looked at Huang Zongxi and his group, and said with a smile: "My dears, do you have something to say?"

Wu Yingji saw Huang Zongxi, who was standing in the crowd, stand up, "Your Majesty, I have an answer!"

After the discussion last night, Wu Yingji thought that Huang Zongxi had given up. He didn't want him to come out alone without asking for help or saying hello.

All civil and military personnel in the Manchu Dynasty were members of the Northern Party, and all departments were controlled by Northern Party officials, making people in the Southern Party wonder if he was crazy.

Huang Zongxi and Gao Yihuan knew each other, and knew that he was one of the three great thinkers in the late Ming Dynasty. His father, Huang Zunsu, was a general of the Donglin Forest, and he was also a respectable person. Unlike Huang Zongxi, he had some problems with his character. Many historical materials are all about exaggerating Donglin, covering up many truths.

Gao Yihuan squinted at him and asked, "What's the matter with the Qing family?"

Huang Zongxi took out a memorial from his sleeve, and said loudly: "Your Majesty, I want to join the Ministry of Chen Pavilion and accept bribes from honorable ministers!"

As soon as these words came out, the entire court was in an uproar. Gao Yihuan frowned, waved his hand to the guards to fetch the notebook, and his face immediately became gloomy, "You said that Chen Ge took bribes, is it true?"

Cabinet members can accept bribes from anyone, but they cannot accept money from Xuncheng.

Huang Zongxi replied: "It is absolutely true."

Gao Yihuan looked at the sullen Chen Mingxia, and said coldly, "Old Chen Ge?"

Chen Mingxia was still calm, and saluted solemnly, "Your Majesty, there is absolutely nothing like this! Please learn from Your Majesty and send Xuan Yiwei to investigate!"

This was a complete false accusation. Although Chen Mingxia exchanged interests with his relatives, he never took money easily. In fact, he was fairly clean. His ambition was to become the chief assistant, to grasp the power of the court, and then to display his ambition.

Chen Mingxia never accepted bribes from his relatives, so he was not afraid of Gao Yihuan's investigation.

Huang Zongxi didn't wait for Gao Yihuan's order, but continued: "Your Majesty, the Chen Ge Department has taken it. When Luyi Marquis Gao Xinghao cleaned up the criminal officials in Beijing, he gave Chen Ge Department 1 taels, two famous paintings, and there are files to check!"

As soon as these words came out, he was very happy and angry, "Your Majesty, I have never sent money or paintings to Chen Gebu!"

Huang Zongxi said: "Send it, I heard what people said."

"If you hear people say it, you can slander your cabinet ministers!" Han Chaoxuan, the left servant of the Criminal Department of the Northern Party, was furious.

Qian Bingdeng, the servant of the Ministry of Rites of the Northern Party, stood up and said: "Huang Shaoqing is not an admonition, and he has no right to listen to the news. Besides, I also need a basis for my admonition. How can I seriously injure the cabinet ministers so easily!"

Immediately afterwards, a large number of irritated officials came out one after another to reprimand Huang Zongxi. The court was agitated. The six main officials, the Inspectorate, and the nobles of the palace all stood by Chen Mingxia's side, which made the southern party officials tremble with fear. will fail.

Huang Zongxi, as a former Donglin young general, has seen scenes with his father Huang Zunsu since he was a child, met many high-ranking officials, has a wealth of struggle management, and is very courageous.

When the Eunuch Party fell from power, he used an awl to stab Xu Xianchun, his father-killing enemy, in front of the interrogating officials, almost stabbing him to death, and his hands were black.

At this time, he was not afraid of the attack from the Northern Party group, but he still insisted: "It is indeed accepted, and the admonition platform is afraid of the power of the Chen Ge Department. Don't say it. I am the court, so I must say it!"

"Shut up, everyone!" Gao Yihuan stopped the arguments of the officials, "There is a file, bring the file!"

When the Wei army occupied Beijing, the Qing army fled in a hurry and failed to take away many things. The Wei army seized a lot, and the Wei army would inevitably intercept some of the things, and the officials would also take some of them after they were sent to the court. This is an unspoken rule. In this case, the original file and the Ministry of Household file must not match and cannot be checked.

Gao Xinghao hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, there is no problem with the file!"

Zhao Ziyi, an official of the Northern Party who was once the head of the household department, saluted and said: "Your Majesty, the file minister has read it before, and there is no problem!"

Gao Yihuan said in a deep voice, "Where is the file?"

No one answered, Huang Zongxi sneered inwardly, and finally showed his hole card, "Your Majesty, Mr. Chen Ge, Zhao Ziyi, and Marquis Luyi are forming a party for personal gain!"

Chen Ming and Xia Wenyu's heart trembled. Li Yan in front of him, with lowered eyebrows, did not speak from the beginning to the end.

Gao Xinghao hurriedly scolded: "Nonsense, this Marquis has no clique!"

Huang Zongxi said again: "The Chen Ge Department colluded with the ministers of the DPRK and China, and formed a party for personal gain!"

Officials from various ministries of the Northern Party have stated that they have not formed a party, and they are outraged.

Minister of the Ministry of Officials, "There is no party formation!"

Zuodu Censor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, "Your Majesty, there is no faction!"

Minister of the Household Department, "There is no clique for personal gain!"

……

Those who spoke for Chen Mingxia just now explained that there was no clique or selfishness.

At this time, many people have already understood that Chen Mingxia is finished, including Chen Mingxia himself, it is not important whether he accepts bribes or not, the key is forming a party and colluding with Xungui.

Chen Mingxia wanted to stop those defending him, but if he could stop them, he would stop everyone with a single sound, which would only make Gao Yihuan more unhappy.

Gao Yihuan knew that he had a party, but he didn't expect that Chen Mingxia's party was so big that more than half of the civil and military people were speaking for him. What did he want to do?
Chen Mingxia was sweating behind his back, and suddenly knelt down, "Your Majesty, I have been loyal to the imperial court. Now that I have been criticized by this, I am willing to resign and return to my hometown, so that there is no party!"

Huang Zongxi hurriedly knelt down, "Your Majesty, the whole court is full of members of Chen Ge's department. If I fight alone, I will arouse the hatred of the whole court. I hope that your majesty will allow me to resign and return to my hometown."

In the debate just now, Huang Zongxi was fighting alone all the time. Compared to Chen Mingxia, he really looked like he was alone, fighting against a party and a lone minister of an interest group. There is a party.

Gao Yihuan glanced at the two of them with cold eyes, and said to Chen Mingxia: "I allow you to resign!" Then he looked at Huang Zongxi, "I hope you can continue to serve the country!"
