Chapter 119 The head of Xiaoqing Rumor Officer, passed on to the Nine Sides!
Tian Qi looked at Zhou Chaorui with disgust.
"Why did he, Wu Changchun, choose to slander you, and why did he say so accurately that there was a Zhou Adviser in Li Ke?"
Then, Tianqi also questioned Zhou Chaorui, and shook the letter stamped by Li Yongfang himself, and said to Zhou Chaorui:
"However, Li Yongfang also mentioned your name in his letter to his son-in-law, and he also knows that you are my Daming Li Kezuo's affairs! When did you hook up with Jiannu, and you still want to deceive the king in front of me ?!"
Plop!
Zhou Chaorui prostrated himself on the ground, wanting to cry, but said without tears: "Your Majesty, you have learned! I really don't know that Wu Changchun is the son-in-law of the traitor Li Yongfang. I just think that he is really just a confidant sent by Liaodong Governor Yuan Chonghuan."
Ji Yicheng's legs also softened at this time, and he prostrated himself on the ground, thinking to himself: "I, these people, are finished. Who would have thought that Wu Changchun was actually sent by Jiannu!"
"What does this have to do with Yuan Chonghuan?"
Apocalypse asked at this time.
Zhou Chaorui hurriedly replied: "He said that he was sent by Yuan Chonghuan to enter the city, and the ministers helped Sun Chuanting and Zhou Yuji in southern Liao in the court."
"So you did it?"
Apocalypse asked.
Zhou Chaorui didn't answer Tianqi's question directly, but just kowtowed: "Your Majesty, spare your life, Your Majesty, spare your life!"
"Why did he do it?"
Tianqi asked Wu Changchun at this time.
Wu Changchun replied: "Is there any need to ask? Naturally, I gave him silver. At first, it was only five thousand taels, but now it has been given to twenty thousand taels."
"I have restored the ancestral system of peeling last grass, and it would be dishonest if I don't stop."
Tianqi looked at Zhou Chaorui angrily and said something.
Zhou Chaorui just kowtowed to beg for mercy.
Tian Qi asked Wu Changchun again: "What does this matter have to do with Yuan Chonghuan?"
"It doesn't matter, we are just looking for a reason for the Qing rumor officials to impeach Sun Chuanting and Zhou Yuji. We can't just say that Jiannu doesn't want to see Sun Chuanting and Zhou Yuji continue to exist in southern Liaoning, right?"
Wu Changchun said again: "Anyone can imagine that such powerful people as Sun Chuanting and Zhou Yuji would sincerely make things difficult for Jiannu in southern Liaoning. What will damage not only Jiannu's financial resources, but also those in western Liaoning. Yuan Chonghuan doesn’t want another Sun Chuanting who is equal to him outside the customs, so if we say that Yuan Chonghuan sent them to win them over, they will naturally believe it.”
"Willing to frame the border ministers for the border ministers, but disregarding the safety of the border towns and the safety of the country, is this how you are loyal to the court?!"
Tianqi therefore questioned Zhou Chaorui and others.
Zhou Chaorui and others still just kowtowed to beg for mercy.
Tian Qi became more and more furious as he thought about it, stood up abruptly, looked at Zhou Chaorui and the others with contempt: "You almost ruined the imperial government!"
"Fortunately, I didn't listen to you guys."
After Tian Qi said that, he ordered again: "Go to Dongchang and **** Hanlin An Tong and student Ni Zhiyuan, and I will interrogate them myself."
"yes!"
Wei Zhongxian agreed and arranged for Xu Xianchun, who was in court, to go to the prison to bring the two of them.
At this time, Tian Qi smiled and asked Zhang Gui: "How did you find Wu Changchun?"
Zhang Gui replied: "It's not too difficult, as long as you focus more on foreign enemies, instead of just staring at your own people, and only know that the party is the same and fight against differences. I have long thought that Jiannu will definitely obey the minister's purpose." Xishan is interested in the industry, so people have been eyeing it for a long time, and even sent people to be corrupted and lured by it, and then followed the map to find out Wu Changchun. If everything goes well, it’s just a matter of planning for a rainy day.”
"Remember this sentence!"
Tian Qi shouted at the courtiers present, and then added: "Pay more attention to the enemies of the court! Think more about the safety of the country!"
The courtiers all replied.
Zhang Gui is not wrong, the Ming Dynasty Hall is often a low-end vanity fair.
The bureaucrats and scholar-bureaucrats are only keen to quarrel over one thing that does not conform to the etiquette and ancestral system.
Moreover, most of their wisdom is used on how to get more benefits from their own court and people.
Even if there are people who earn money from the sea trade from outside, they still think about how to monopolize the benefits, and never think about instigating the court to help them expand their interests outside.
Of course, there are many reasons involved in this, and it is difficult to describe them in detail.
And Zhang Gui now wants Tianqi to know that he is different from these bureaucratic scholar-bureaucrats. He never even thought of fighting these bureaucratic scholar-bureaucrats, but has always put his mind on the interests of the entire country.
As for the discovery of Wu Changchun now, and the implication of these bureaucrats and bureaucrats in colluding with slavery, and even exposing their nature of disregarding the safety of the country, willing to cooperate with border ministers to engage in internal fighting but not taking the initiative to prevent this matter, it is nothing more than beating rabbits. , just a piggyback.
Who made these bureaucrats lose their loyalty, integrity and shame?
And who made them hold too deep views of the sect, for the benefit of their own scholar-bureaucrats, regardless of the safety of the country?
Just because people like Sun Chuanting were recommended by their relatives, they wanted to fight them down, and never cared what impact it would have on the country.
Hanlin Antong and student Ni Zhiyuan were escorted to the court not long after.
As soon as Ni Zhiyuan saw Wu Changchun here, his face turned pale with shock, and the defensive line he built up was broken in an instant.
Because Wu Changchun was his boss, Wu Changchun had many evidences that he was a slave.
What Ni Zhiyuan really wants to know now is why Wu Changchun was arrested? Since when has the imperial court been eyeing him?
Tian Qi asked Ni Zhiyuan first after seeing these two people coming: "Ni Zhiyuan, how did you get the secret letter that Sun Chuanting colluded with Jiannu?"
Because Wu Changchun was here, Ni Zhiyuan had already broken his defenses, so he no longer resisted stubbornly, but replied truthfully: "It was given to me by the master Wu next to him. He asked me to come to the capital to spread the news of Sun Chuanting's collusion with Jianlao, and gave it to me." I have a thousand taels of silver to go around. The origin is also what Master Wu ordered me to say, and let me make up that it was stolen from Jian Nu."
"So, you believe it?"
Tianqi’s words are a question to Hanlin Antong.
An Tong looked at Ni Zhiyuan with an incredulous expression on his face: "You!"
Because Tianqi asked a question at this time, An Tong then hurriedly turned to Tianqi and said: "I am confused, please forgive me, Your Majesty!"
"This matter can be solved by being confused? If you, An Hanlin, had not had sectarian views and hidden the desire to fight against dissidents, would you have been fooled by one of his students?"
"You dignified Hanlin, would you not have imagined how important southern Liaoning is to Daming now, and the possible conspiracies here?"
"Unless someone else took the exam for you, or you admit that you are a pedantic nerd!"
Zhang Gui spoke up at this time, and reported to Tianqi: "Your Majesty Qizuo, I believe that in order not to cause accidents in the border defense due to wanton impeachment and slander by the Beijing officials, we should severely punish such people with deep views, so that the border ministers can be punished." Don't worry, don't dare to defend the border wholeheartedly for the country because you are worried about the impediment of the court's clean officials! Otherwise, the border ministers will have to devote a lot of thought and even spend a lot of gold and silver to eliminate the unfavorable objections of the officials and officials! , and let the Hulu know His Majesty's wisdom, and never dare to use the art of counterintuitive provocation!"
"It is best to pass on its head to Jiubian, so as to reassure Jiubian's civil and military heart!"
"Because since the Liao incident, the slump in border affairs is mostly related to the bad things of the civil officials in the Qingliu of the court! It is not enough to show your majesty's wisdom if you don't do this!"
Tianqi nodded: "Decree, An Tong, a scholar in the Hanlin Academy, is a party member who fights dissidents. He has deep views in the sect. He expresses his loyalty and hides treachery. He oversteps the power of officials and courts. He almost destroys the great government of the military and the country! Sentenced to death, no family property, to serve as a warning to others!"
"Zhou Chaorui and Ji Yicheng are waiting for someone to find out about their corruption. If they should peel the last grass, they will peel the last grass, and if they want to ransack the house, they will ransack the house. As for the crime of believing the secret words of Jian slaves and almost ruining our side affairs, they will also be punished with An Tong. Same treatment!"
"All pass on the first nine sides!"
Zhou Zhaorui fainted immediately after hearing this.
At this time, Li Biaoji, the left servant of the Ministry of Rites, who was also from Qingliu of the Imperial Academy, complained about his colleagues, and hurried out of court and said: "Your Majesty! I have something to say!"
"speak!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Then, Li Biao said: "I want to ask Your Majesty, let's put aside the facts and not talk about it. Now that the whole court and foreign countries are dissatisfied with him, Sun Chuanting and Zhou Yuji, is there nothing wrong with them?!"
