Chapter 994 Please punish the traitor and minister Shu

“Sheng, I wrote an eight-legged article some time ago. If Zihou has time, he might as well help Sheng correct it.”

Morning Halfway through the meal, when Zhu Pingan was still thinking about how to mention the memorial, Yang Jisheng took out a folded rice paper from his arms, claiming that it was an eight-part essay written by him, and asked Zhu Pingan to help him correct it.

Eight-part essay?

Zhu Ping'an was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then his heart skipped a beat. This so-called "eight-legged essay" should be Senior Brother Yang's memorial.

really.

When Zhu Pingan took the "eight-legged" piece from Yang Jisheng, he opened it and saw that it was exactly what he thought.

"Please punish the traitors and ministers"

The five large characters with iron paintings and silver hooks at the beginning of the cover are like a backbone of iron bones, rushing towards the face.

After reading, Zhu Pingan looked up and looked at Yang Jisheng. Yang Jisheng smiled slightly and motioned Zhu Pingan to continue looking down.

So, Zhu Ping'an flipped through the text and continued reading:

"Yang Jisheng, the chief minister of the Ministry of War's Military Selection and Cleaning Department, would like to write: In order to express gratitude to God and sacrifice his life to repay, I beg for the Holy Judgment to kill the traitor early. The cunning, tyrannical and authoritative officials used the Qing Dynasty's administration to cause troubles on the border. The former minister of chariot and driving in the Ministry of War, Wai Lang, tried to stop him. In the horse market, if you speak untimely and miss the words in your book, you should be sent to prison. Ni Luan will be questioned by his subordinates. His fingers will be broken and his tibia will be pinched out. He will definitely put him to death. He is favored by the emperor and will be demoted with a small punishment. In less than two years, I was promoted to this position again. I was so lonely and sinful, and I was not killed by Ni Luan. The past years have all been reborn by the emperor; the officials who have passed away from now on are all positions bestowed by the emperor. If I receive this great favor, everything will be beneficial to the country, and I can repay it even if I die. However, day and night, I only feared how to sacrifice my life to seek revenge, and I was not eager to ask the traitors to be killed. It is a duty, but thieves are not specialized in foreign aggression. Anyone who is harmful to the people of the country is called a thief..."

This is the first time Zhu Ping'an has seen Yang Jisheng's original version of "Please punish the thieves and ministers". Zhu Ping'an had not read the original text of Yang Jisheng's memorial in modern times, but only knew the gist of the memorial and some key points.

Zhu Ping'an read it very carefully, carefully considering every word and sentence, and studied whether there were any other taboos in the memorial besides "maybe asking the two kings".

This first paragraph is to explain the background and there is nothing wrong with it.

Zhu Ping'an continued to read the second paragraph: "I think Yan Song, a great scholar, steals power and misleads the country and the people. He is the greatest thief in the world! Nowadays, thieves outside are only worried about the border, and thieves inside Only Yan Song is the most thief. Bandits are bandits on the border, causing scabies; thieves are bandits in the family, and they are harmful to the inner circle. There are internal and external thieves, and the attack should be in order. If there are no internal thieves, the thieves can be eliminated, so I invite you. To punish the thief Song, we must suppress it He was the first to rule out thieves and bandits. Moreover, Song's crimes were widespread, and both gods and men were indignant. Xu Xueshi, Shen Lian, Wang Zongmao, etc. were often accused, but they all said that Song's corruption was small and he was not guilty of plagiarism. "

Yang Jisheng got to the point in the second paragraph and criticized Yan Song's crimes. He said that Xu Xueshi, Shen Lian, Wang Zongmao and others only impeached Yan Song for minor crimes such as corruption, but did not impeach Yan Song for the serious crime of transgression.

Although this paragraph contains Senior Brother Yang’s personal emotions, overall, there is nothing wrong with it.

Zhu Pingan continued to look down, and then he got to the topic.

Yang Jisheng painstakingly and courageously wrote more than 3,000 words to expose the ten major crimes and five major traitors of Yan Song's dictatorship and treason.

Zhu Ping'an summarized it while reading. Yang Jisheng revealed Yan Song's ten major crimes in the memorial:

A major crime: Emperor Taizu of our dynasty saw the disaster of the prime minister's autocratic power, so he dismissed the prime minister, appointed cabinet ministers, and appointed advisers , and the traitor Yan Song held the emperor hostage In order to invade Baisi, he always pretends to be the prime minister. Although he does not have the name of the prime minister, he still has the status of the prime minister. His power is overwhelming. Every time an official is promoted, before thanking the emperor for his kindness, he must first thank the thief Song, because their governor power comes from the thief. Song, I only know that I am afraid of flattering the thief Song. This is how bad ancestors came to be.

Two major sins: Yan Song, the thief of the Holy Emperor, was drafted. Whenever the Holy One appoints a person, Thievesong will go around and say that this person is recommended in my draft book; every time His Majesty removes someone, Thief Song will say that this person is not diligent in accompanying me, so I removed him in the draft book; Every time the Holy One showed leniency to someone, Thief Song would say that he had saved him in his draft book; every time His Majesty punished someone, Thief Song would go around and tell people that this person had offended him, so he took revenge in the draft book. Song, the thief, always relied on the joy and anger of the Holy Emperor to exert unbridled power and blessing, so the officials felt more grateful for Song's benefits than the Emperor's favor, and feared Song's power more than they feared the Emperor's punishment. Since the power of giving up rewards and punishments belongs to Song, and all ministers and workers, big and small, are attached to Song, will Song's heart become bolder and more wanton? Stealing the power from the king.

Three major sins: Every time His Majesty has good governance, the thieves will say that it was his suggestion. He is robbing and destroying the merits of the Holy One.

Four major crimes: The thief Song Zongzi usurped the imperial power and entrusted heavy power to his son Yan Shifan. Therefore, there is a rumor in the capital that "the great prime minister and the small prime minister".

Five major crimes: stealing Song's public weapons for personal use, wantonly promoting officials and nobles to relatives and private parties, and impersonating the military merits of the imperial court.

Six Deadly Sins: Thief Song accepted bribes wantonly and cited traitorous ministers such as Zhao Daying and Gao Botai, causing harm to the world.

Seven deadly sins: foreign invaders invade, thieves are afraid of fighting, and miss the country's military aircraft.

The Eight Deadly Sins: The thief Song controls the power of the government. Those who follow me will prosper and those who go against me will perish.

Nine Deadly Sins: The promotion of civil and military officials depends on the amount of bribes, which has led to the prevalence of corruption and exploitation in the world and has greatly lost the hearts of the world.

Ten major sins: Since the time when Thieves Song became the leader, bribery has become a common practice in both government and the public, and the official style is not upright. Officials rely on opportunism to get things done, corrupting customs, and creating a chaotic atmosphere.

After Zhu Pingan studied the ten deadly sins word by word, he found that the sixth one among the ten deadly sins. He cited Zhao Daying, Gao Botai and others who he had impeached as examples, and regarded them as Yan Song's bribes. example.

This is probably one of the influences caused by the flapping of my own butterfly wings.

Although these ten crimes are slightly exaggerated, they are all facts. Yang Jisheng tore off all the fig leaves and pointed directly at Yan Song's deep sins, especially the first three crimes. After Yan Song saw Yang Jisheng's memorial, he broke out in a cold sweat.

However, after studying the Ten Deadly Sins, Zhu Ping'an still had a vague feeling that Senior Brother Yang's impeachment of Yan Song's Ten Deadly Sins seemed to involve the emperor

In Senior Brother Yang's memorial, Yan Song seemed to have become a powerful traitor, a bit like Cao Cao who held the emperor hostage to order the princes.

Since ancient times, treacherous ministers have appeared from faint kings.

Powerful rape is even worse.

Only a cowardly and foolish king can be powerful and traitorous.

If he was a wise king, how could he be so deceived by his ministers? How could such a powerful monarch be overtaken by his ministers?

However, it is also possible that I am overthinking, or it is my own misunderstanding, because I know that Yang Jisheng in history incurred the wrath of the Holy Spirit because of this memorial, so if I look at this memorial with this preconceived understanding, I may There is this illusion.
