Chapter 225
In Wenyuan Pavilion, Yu Qian was busy writing, and Zhang Yi pushed the door and walked in.
"Tingyi, why are you still writing?"
Yu Qian said without raising his head: "The new policy involves all aspects. If the initial consideration is not thorough and implemented, it will be difficult."
Zhang Yi no longer cared about the new policy or not, and pulled Yu Qian and said, "The Yansheng Gong case is about to be finalized. The emperor has just issued an order to be tried by the cabinet and all officials. You can follow me quickly!"
"No!"
Yu Qian's answer was neat and neat, and he seemed to be unable to get any interest in this case.
Zhang Yi said in confusion: "Don't you want to know the result of the interrogation?"
Yu Qian snorted and said, "Yan Sheng Gong is finished, no one can save him!"
"What did you say?"
Zhang Yi frowned and asked, "Tingyi, you are also a scholar, why are you so unreasonable?"
"The unreasonable thing is Yan Shenggong. The Kong family relies on the kindness of their ancestors to enjoy the national favor for generations. It is fine if they do evil on weekdays, but now they have to go against the emperor. Isn't this asking for death by themselves?"
"What do you... say this?"
Yu Qian then raised his head and said, "I saw with my own eyes what the Kong family did in Wei County. If the emperor didn't care, I couldn't stand it!"
Zhang Yi said inexplicably: "What happened? As far as I know, Weixian is not familiar with education, and the school teaches all the messy things, and even cooperates with merchants, which is simply a disgrace! Yan Shenggong sent someone to correct the prestige and evil spirit of Weixian. From what you said, it seems that there is another truth?"
"You are right, but not accurate enough when you are talking about Weixian cooperation with merchants and teaching some messy things."
Yu Qian put down his pen and told everything he saw and heard in Wei County. Until the Kong family appeared, the emperor could no longer bear it, so he sent the Jinyiwei to take him back to the capital.
For this period of time, Zhang Yi has always believed that the Jinyiwei and the Kong family were unable to get along, or that the emperor took action against the Kong family in order to implement the new policy.
Now after listening to Yu Qian’s story, I realized that it seems not that simple.
Yu Qian never lies or is unwilling to lie. It seems that... is it really the Kong family wrong first?
What shocked him even more was that even if the number of students enrolled in Wei County and children in other counties in Datong Prefecture was too far away.
"Tingyi, tell me the truth, is the new policy really not against scholars?"
Yu Qian shook his head and said, "I have been in Wei County for two months. The new policy is not that simple. Many of the emperor's ideas are much more wise than ours. If we are still conservative and incomplete and do not intend to make progress, even if the new policy is not launched, sooner or later, we will be abandoned by the world."
After listening to it, Zhang Yi thought for a long time, but although he couldn't understand it for a short time, he seemed very powerful.
After Yu Qian finished speaking, he picked up the pen and buried his head again.
"Don't worry, the emperor's wisdom is definitely not something we can imagine. This time, Yan Shenggong is absolutely finished!"
Zhang Yi thought about it before and asked, "You really don't go and see it?"
"I'm still busy if I don't go!"
Zhang Yi had no choice but to leave Wenyuan Pavilion with a question mark and walk towards the Meridian Gate.
At this time, outside the Meridian Gate had been arranged properly.
There was a long table and three chairs in the presiding position, which were left for the Three Justice Departments.
In the auditing position, more than a dozen chairs were placed. Zhu Qizhen sat in the center, and Zhu Qiyu, Cao Nai and others sat on both sides. All officials came to observe the auditing position and sat down according to the size of the official position. Some of them had small official positions, so they naturally had no qualifications and stood behind.
The people in the capital received the news and in less than an hour, they all came.
Since ancient times, no matter what dynasty or living conditions, the fine tradition of eating or not having enough food and loving to join in the fun cannot be lost!
On the presiding stage, the three big bosses, Yu Shiyue, Minister of Justice, Xue Xuan, Minister of Dali Temple, and Yang Shan, the Censor of the Left Capital, were once again pushed to the forefront.
To some extent, the three of them were quite worried.
Especially Yu Shiyue, the Minister of Justice, naturally knew what he was doing.
He thought that the emperor's actions during this period were very unreasonable, and he often confiscated his family and destroyed his clan. This was something that Emperor Taizu would do. Although he did not say it clearly, he secretly scolded the tyrant in his heart.
If you can copy others today, it will be difficult to guarantee that you will not copy them to your own head tomorrow.
Even if you can protect yourself, what should you do if your children and grandchildren in the future do?
Since the emperor wants to implement the new policy, he wants to eliminate the previous civil officials. Could it be that if he worked hard all his life, his children and grandchildren cannot even enjoy the slightest grace?
Not to mention how many people have followed their own children and dogs over the years, and these people who are in front of each other have long formed a community of interests. They have gained benefits from themselves and rely on these wings to consolidate their position in the court.
Several people have been imprisoned by the Jiangnan smuggling case. Seeing that the power behind him is getting worse day by day, if you don’t stand up to support everyone, these people will be dissatisfied and disloyal, then he, the Secretary of State, is just an empty title.
In the morning court, I had already broken up with the emperor, and now I have no choice.
Today's battle will determine both the superiority and the inferiority, and life and death!
Therefore, while the temporary execution ground was not yet completed, he took the time to go back home, called his son to him, and ordered: "Today's case will directly affect the future of my Yu family. If you shoot the bow and don't turn back, you should be more at home and serve your mother well."
"Father...why did you say this?"
Seeing his son's worry, Yu Shiyue comforted him, "It's just an explanation. Although he knows that things are not so serious, at least he must be careful not to happen. Don't worry, if he encounters an unexpected accident today, it won't matter, because, when it really comes to that point, his father has become famous all over the world. At that time, you children and grandchildren can at least benefit from it!"
What Yu Shiyue said about benefiting from it is actually not a joke at all.
If a scholar-official is pursued by the court, dismissed his official position, or even lost his life for protecting the interests of scholars in the world, he will inevitably be respected by the people in the world.
Think about it, in the future, if your children and grandchildren report your name, countless powerful people will compete to serve them. Later generations will build archways for you and promote your achievements everywhere. Then, this life will be exchanged for more than just wealth, and it will be the golden rice bowl of future generations.
"Actually, you don't have to worry. In this life of your father, you will not be greedy or possessive. Even if the Jinyiwei comes, you can't find anything. Just relax. Okay, it's not too early, so it's time for your father."
After saying that, he slowly stood up, his eyes as if he was going to die.
