Chapter 568: Stop the prefect (repair)

11days ago traverse Novels 7
On the Golden Palace, even though Emperor Chen had left, he was still silent in a dead silence

From the prime minister to the six ministries, even the small eunuchs serving in the hall kneeled down

The emperor was angry and buried a million corpses and bleed thousands of miles away. His Majesty's thunder just now was furious. Although he would not hide a million corpses and bleed thousands of miles away, the entire court was also shaken a few times.

Feng Xiang pretended to resign, but His Majesty did not object, but went with the flow and really allowed him to resign and return home. This was unexpected and still unbelievable.

But when he thought that he seemed to be reverberating in the hall, what His Majesty said just now seemed to feel that all this was natural

The national treasury has a tax of only 10 million taels per year. Ezhou, a small Jiangnan prefecture, hides half of the national treasury. What about Jiangnan West Road and the entire Jiangnan?

They dare not imagine

What's more, the officials in Jiangnan were so bold that they wanted to murder the Beijing officials who went to Jiangnan to investigate, which even touched the bottom line of the court.

And the reason why they are so arrogant is that there are too many high-ranking officials in Jiangnan, and that the Jiangnan faction is the mainstay in the court. Now, this pillar has fallen

Since Your Majesty has dismissed Feng Xiang, he will not give up. The official department clerk, a certain supervisor, was afraid that none of the Jiangnan officials who had just stood up to force His Majesty to give in.

In the Golden Palace, all the officials knelt on the ground, and people were in panic. Feng Xiang knelt in the front, as if he was being pulled back, and his whole body bent down.

Many officials sighed in their hearts that Feng Xiang worked hard for the country all his life, but he still did not end up with a happy ending. He became famous for Jiangnan and was also burdened by Jiangnan.

They subconsciously looked at the other side, but realized that Wang Xiang had not attended court today, Feng Xiang was deposed, and Wang Xiang was the only backbone of everyone

Just when all the officials were punished to kneel on the Golden Palace, outside the capital, under a weeping willow by the river, the old man sat on a low stool, looking leisurely at the water surface. Even if the fishing rod was shaking violently, he sat steadily like Mount Tai.

A little girl ran over, shook his arm, and said: Grandpa, stop sleeping, the fish are hooked...

Grandpa didn't sleep. The left prince smiled and shook his head, lifted the fishing rod, and the fishing hook was empty.

The little girl said annoyed: The fish ran away...

The old man touched her head and smiled: The fish here are smart. They can even catch them, so it is not easy to catch them...

The little girl looked at her and frowned: Grandpa is so confused. How can fish catch people?

Wang Xiang laughed and said: You are still young, when you grow up, you will know that fish can also catch people. It is not easy to see who is fish and who is human...

Thinking that fish can become humans, the little girl looked at the river, showed a fearful expression on her face, and hurriedly turned her head and ran away

On another side of the river a few feet away, Zhao Yuan took back his fishing rod, and a small fish the size of a palm hung on the hook. He looked at the little girl and asked: Sister Wang, are you here to see me fish?

I was fishing with my grandfather, who asked you to come with me... The little girl snorted and said: Go and let your sister Zhang and sister Bai watch you fishing...

Zhao Yuan said innocently: I just like to let you see

The little girl put her hands on her hips and said: You also said you would marry them when you grow up!

Zhao Yuandao: But I also said I want to marry you...

The little girl said angrily: Only one can be chosen!

Zhao Yuan showed a decadent look on his face, threw the fish hook back into the water again, and showed an envious expression on his face

The husband already has three master's wives, and the father and the emperor also have many concubines. I heard that so many women like him because he is the top scholar, and the father and the emperor have so many concubines because he is the emperor, so he will marry whoever he wants.

Zhao Yuan thought about it seriously and felt that it would be better to let him die than to get the top scorer in the exam. In comparison, it seems that being an emperor is a little simpler...

Thinking of this, he threw down his fishing rod and ran towards the palace.

The little girl watched him leave with her guard, and was stunned and shouted: Where are you going...

At this time, officials came out one after another in the palace

The officials looked different, the same thing was that when they walked out, they limped, as if all civil and military officials were suffering from leg problems, which attracted pedestrians passing by the palace gate to stop and watch.

Zhong Mingli did not go to Jingzhao Prefecture, but limped home. Chen Yuxian and others had been waiting at the door for a long time. Seeing him coming from afar, he hurried forward and asked worriedly: What's wrong with you? Did Your Majesty even punish you?

Ning'er is fine, I'm fine, Zhong Mingli shook his head and said: Go in and say

A moment later, Chen Yuxian looked at him and said in disbelief: You said that Your Majesty dismissed the prime minister and let everyone kneel in the court for half an hour?

Not only the prime minister, but more than ten officials from Jiangnan were dismissed and will never be hired.

Zhong Mingli recalled the situation in the morning court and was still a little scared, saying: Corruption in Jiangnan became popular, and Ning'er recovered five million taels of silver in Ezhou alone. The officials in Jiangnan were still pushing each other hard in the court. His Majesty was furious. Today, he scolded all the civil and military officials in the court.

Zhong Yi Su Ru finally felt relieved. Chen Yuxian was still a little uneasy and asked: They won’t make trouble again, right?

Even Xiang Feng was dismissed, so why are they making trouble?

Zhong Mingli shook his head and said: The Jiangnan Party was seriously injured this time, and I am afraid it will not be able to recover for a long time. This is five million taels of silver. Who dares to make trouble again, unless they don’t even want their lives...

The rich man Tang stood aside, raised his eyebrows and asked: Is five million taels a lot?

Zhong Mingli glanced at him, breathed a sigh of relief, and said: No matter what, this incident finally passed...

He told you not to worry. The rich man Tang looked at him and said: Your son-in-law doesn’t know what he has suffered?

……

Imperial study room

Emperor Chen sat above and said: Give him a seat

Several ministers and important officials in the court knelt for half an hour. It was difficult to stand here at this moment. When he heard this, he immediately bowed: Thank you Your Majesty

A little eunuch brought a chair, and several people sat down one after another

After everyone sat down, Chen Huang looked at an old man and said: Feng Xiang resigned and retired. The right prime minister's position will be temporarily replaced by Zhou Aiqing.

Zhou Shangshu of the Ministry of Personnel is old and is a few years older than Feng Xiang. In the past two years, he has become increasingly healthy and has the intention to resign. At this time, the emperor handed over the important task of the right prime minister to him, so naturally he did not let him take up the court again.

This is actually an honor. These old ministers who have made significant contributions to the court will be granted a certain degree of title before resigning. They do not hold real power and only have a few short months in office, and at most one year, but it is also a perfection of their official career.

Even a hundred years later, there is an additional sentence on the tombstone: "As the right prime minister of the current dynasty, it is better than the Minister of Personnel.

Shangshu Zhou stood up in the chair, bowed his hand and said: "Old minister thanks Your Majesty for your kindness."

Emperor Chen nodded and said: The Censor

The Censor was excited and said:

Chen Huangdao: For the Ezhou incident, I ordered the Censorate and Dali Temple to investigate strictly. You will be restricted to three days. I will give me an explanation!

The Censor said solemnly: I obey the order

The Censor was killed in Ezhou. Even if Emperor Chen didn't say anything, the Censorate would not give up. What's more, this time the Censor General made the Censor lose all his face in front of His Majesty and all officials, and he still had to find a way to pick it up.

Emperor Chen made another arrangement before looking at everyone again and asked: What else do you have to report?

Qian Shuo, the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, thought of something, stood up and said: Your Majesty, the national treasury has no extra money this year, about the five million taels of silver that Lord Tang recovered from Ezhou...

Chen Huang raised his eyebrows and said: The matter of money is not important

Qian Shuo was stunned and said: Your Majesty, five million taels are half of the treasury tax revenue. With these five million taels, the treasury...

Bang!

Emperor Chen slapped the table and stood up, pointed at him, and said angrily: You still know that five million taels of silver is half of the treasury tax. How do you, the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, and how do you collect the tax in Jiangnan? I just gave you face in the Golden Palace. Don’t think that I am very satisfied with your Ministry of Revenue... You reminded me that from now on, all officials of your Ministry of Revenue will be collectively punished for half a year!

Qian Shuo looked shocked and innocent, murmured: Your Majesty...

Emperor Chen shouted: If you dare to argue, then you will be fined for one year!

Qian Shuo looked at him, as if he had thought of something, and honestly shut his mouth
