Chapter 957: Xiu Mu Fengyun
A lot happened to Xiu Mu on this day. So much so that people felt a sense of alienation the next day after hearing about it.
First, after a small gathering at Yan's Mansion yesterday afternoon, Zhao Wenhua took the opportunity to go to Xiyuan to offer the Holy Hundred Flowers Wine. Then, the Holy Master asked Yan Song, "Why don't you let me enjoy such a human fairy wine and nectar?" ";
Then, Yan Song was furious when he learned that the fairy wine referred to the Baihua wine presented by Zhao Wenhua. Ting, angrily expelled Zhao Wenhua out of Yan's Mansion, severed all ties with Zhao Wenhua, and severed the relationship between father and son;
Then, I heard that in the evening, Yan Song went to Xiyuan in a hurry to plead guilty, and replied to Emperor Jiajing's handwriting, saying: "Your Majesty I don’t know why dogs and horses live so long if they don’t get close to medicine and bait all their lives.” The suspicion of the monarch and his ministers disappeared;
Later, I heard that in the evening, Zhao Wenhua bribed the concierge of Yan Mansion to enter Yan Mansion and asked to see Mrs. Yan. He knelt down in front of Mrs. Yan and cried bitterly, repenting endlessly. Upon seeing this, Mrs. Yan suddenly felt pity and moved for Zhao Wenhua. Intercessing in front of Yan Song made Yan Song forgive Zhao Wenhua, take back his words of severance with Zhao Wenhua, and settle the old grudges.
In addition, there is another news, that is, Zhu Ping'an has impeached someone again, and the person to be impeached is still the commander of the Xicheng Army and Horses Division.
By the way, does Zhu Pingan have any grudge against the commander of the Xicheng Army and Horses Division? The previous commander of the Xicheng Army and Horse Division, Zhao Daying, was impeached and beheaded by Zhu Pingan. This commander of the Xicheng Army and Horse Division had only been in office for more than a month before he was impeached by Zhu Pingan again.
Zhu Ping'an's impeachment this time has had a greater impact than the last time he impeached Zhao Daying.
Because Gao Botai, the commander of the Xicheng Military and Horse Division who was impeached by Zhu Pingan, has an extraordinary relationship with the Yan Mansion. It is much stronger than the relationship between Zhao Daying and the Yan Mansion. Gao Botai has an aunt who has been with the Yan Mansion for several years. She moved into the Yan Mansion and became Yan Shifan's maid. She got pregnant some time ago and was promoted to aunt by Yan Shifan not long ago. It was because of his aunt that Gao Botai was taken care of by Yan Shifan to fill his vacancy and became the commander of the Xicheng Military and Horse Division.
In fact, according to past practice, this kind of memorial that seriously affects the party did not reach Xiyuan so quickly. However, due to the break yesterday, the left and right counselors of the General Affairs Department were all at home, and only one person on duty at the General Affairs Department came from outside. Relationship with the seventh rank transferred to the General Affairs Department of the capital The governor was not clear about these intertwined relationships in the capital. He did not take the memorial submitted by Zhu Pingan to impeach Gao Botai seriously. In front of the office, he put Zhu Pingan's memorial together with the dozens of memorials accumulated at the beginning of this month. Submitted to Xiyuan.
It just so happened that Emperor Jiajing, who had not vented his energy after drinking Baihua Wine yesterday, read the memorial submitted by the General Secretary in the evening.
As a result, Zhu Ping'an's memorial fell into the eyes of Emperor Jiajing.
Emperor Jiajing had a favorable impression of Zhu Pingan. From the case of killing a good man and taking advantage of Zhao Daying to the Taicang theft case, Zhu Pingan left a deep impression on Emperor Jiajing.
Therefore, Emperor Jiajing also attached great importance to Zhu Pingan's impeachment. Moreover, the farming affairs in Xuanfu and Datong towns mentioned in Zhu Pingan's memorial were related to the Ming Dynasty's border defense plan. Emperor Jiajing even more It's attention.
When he saw that the farmland was occupied by the generals, Emperor Jiajing was furious. No wonder border officials were often in urgent need of food and military pay, which made me take out so many gold and silver subsidies from my private treasury. It turned out that it was these big rats!
Farming is one of the main expenses for maintaining the food and salary of the border army. The imperial court allocates land as farming, which is cultivated by military households and farmers. Part of the harvest goes to military households and farmers, and the rest is used to support the army. Being able to support the army without spending money, farming has always been a system that Emperor Jiajing admired very much. But now, there is a general like Gao Botai, who dares to invade the farmland regardless of the life and death of the army and military households! Take the farmland as your own! Now that all the land is private, how can there be any harvest left to feed the army?
In Xuanfu and Datong, apart from the Gao Botai mentioned in Zhu Ping's memorial, were there any other generals who invaded and occupied the fields?
What about other places?
How many farms have these rats invaded? !
Emperor Jiajing was immediately furious. Of course, Emperor Jiajing could not just listen to Zhu Pingan's side of the story. After reading the memorial, Emperor Jiajing ignored the depth of the night and sent people to summon Lu Bing, the commander of the Jinyiwei, into Xiyuan. He was given a face-to-face instruction and ordered to go to Xuanfu overnight. , Datong secretly investigated the matter.
Afterwards, Emperor Jiajing acted resolutely and ordered Huang Jin to send Dongchang Tiqi to arrest Gao Botai overnight. He was charged with dereliction of duty, abuse of power and false accusations against Shangguan. Gao Botai was detained in prison until Lu Bing, the commander of Jinyiwei, completed the inspection of Datong. After the occupation of farmland in Xuanfu, Xuanfu and other places, they would interrogate and investigate the crimes together with the Ministry of Punishment, the Ministry of Personnel and other departments.
This incident all happened late at night, and by the time people got the news, it was already the next morning.
Yan Song and his son got the news earlier than everyone else. They had already gotten the news shortly after Gao Botai was arrested by Dongchang late last night.
"Haha. I didn't expect that kid Zhu Ping'an, who had already impeached Gao Botai yesterday, could still sit at the same table with me and drink like a normal person. If I had known better, I should have drunk him to death yesterday." After Yan Shifan got the news, he laughed angrily.
"Donglou, this is an emergency period. Don't cause more trouble. In addition to holding the Holy Spirit accountable for the Immortal Wine matter, the Holy Spirit's handwriting may also have the intention of beating me up." Yan Song heard the news that Gao Botai was impeached and imprisoned. , he was calm, his face did not change, he glanced at Yan Shifan with squinted eyes, and warned.
"Dad, don't worry, I saved you. Your Majesty is still as always, more clever." Yan Shifan nodded and commented unscrupulously on Emperor Jiajing, but was soon given a serious look by Yan Song, Yan Shifan shrank his neck, and then cursed again: "Gao Botai, this stupid fool, I have told him long ago that the capital is not as good as the frontier, and he is an official here." Just put away the border army's behavior, you must keep your head down and do things, and make money silently. But, haha, just like the guy in my room, it's really a thing that can't be supported by mud."
"Gao Botai's incident is all his own fault. But how did Zhu Ping'an learn about Gao Botai's occupation of farmland?" Yan Song stroked his beard and looked at Yan Shifan and asked.
"I feel strange about this too." Yan Shifan frowned slightly, and then clapped his hands, "I remembered that Zhu Pingan had taken in several hunters at the foot of Yunmeng Mountain in the north, which is far away from Xuanyuan. Datong is not far away. Maybe they had heard something about Gao Botai and told Zhu Ping'an."
"Well, it's possible." Yan Song nodded.
"Zhu Ping'an doesn't take us seriously. As the saying goes, it depends on the owner when beating a dog. With Gao Botai's character, when he learned Zhu Ping'an's identity in front of the Shuntian Mansion Prison, he would definitely treat me like a dog. He told Zhu Pingan about the relationship. But Zhu Pingan impeached Gao Botai directly without asking us. " Yan Shifan was still very upset about Zhu Pingan's impeachment of Gao Botai.
“For this matter, Zihou can’t be blamed.” Yan Song frowned slightly.
Think about it, a young scholar who became famous at a young age and became the best in his prime, rose all the way to the fifth rank, but was thrown a stone by a naughty kid when he was practicing calligraphy by the river in the morning. He didn't beat or scold the naughty child, and asked his parents to discipline him more in a good manner. However, he didn't expect that his parent, who was a sixth-grade official, was bound to the Shuntian Mansion Prison as an accomplice of theft. Who can bear this? ! Zhu Pingan's impeachment is reasonable and understandable.
Yan Shifan also understands this truth, but again, it depends on the owner when beating a dog. Zhao Daying didn’t care last time, but will he do it again this time? !
"Dad, I know you cherish your talent, but I have learned from the past. Back on Changban Slope, Cao Cao also cherished his talent Zhao Yun." Yan Shifan flattened his mouth.
"I am not Cao Cao, and Zhu Ping'an is not Zhao Yun." Yan Song glanced at Yan Shifan, dissatisfied that Yan Shifan compared him to the traitor Cao Cao.
"Hahaha, dad, of course you are not Cao Cao. You were always alive when Zhuge Kongming was alive," Yan Shifan said with a smile.
"There is no formal form." Yan Song laughed and cursed, and then told Yan Shifan seriously, "I am old, but I am not confused yet. I have my own opinion about Zhu Ping'an. You put yourself first Wipe your butt." (End of Chapter)
