Chapter 80 The mouth of a civil servant
Fang Congzheyi had a lot of blood splashed on him as close as he didn't even look up to look at Liu Cheng. He raised his sleeves to wipe off the blood stains, but the stains became more and more.
With a "thump", Liu Cheng's body fell next to Shi Fuxing and fell next to Fang Congzhe.
When did a group of civil servants watch such a bloody scene? Until Liu Cheng fell, everyone still felt palpitations.
Fang Congzhe did not hide his disgust and said to Zhang Weixian: "Is this the soldiers trained by Governor Zhang? If you are shocked by Your Highness, you might be able to bear it?"
Luo Sigong looked at Fang Congzhe and said, "Mr. Fang, these two thieves died in fear of crime. How could this be blamed on the British Duke? What's more..."
Before Luo Yangxing finished speaking, Zhang Weixian waved his hand and interrupted, "Thank you for your support from Governor Luo." After saying that, he first asked the soldiers escorted Liu Cheng and Shi Fuxing to carry the bodies of the two of them away, and then said, "Although Liu Cheng is a crime, his words are correct. The old minister has been in charge of the Jingying camp for many years, which has caused the Jingying camp to be decayed. Although there are accumulated problems, the old minister can't refuse to blame it, let alone the case of the enemy's communication case and the loss of firearms in the Jingying camp. Although most of the firearms stolen by Liu Cheng and Shi Fuxing this time were retrieved, some of them were still lost. Moreover, the firearms sold by the two men before were even impossible to recover, so I would also ask the palace to surrender the crime."
Zhang Weixian had already been angry with Zhu Changluo when the firearm was lost mentioned by Fang Chengzhe, so the anger in front was just pretending to be a witness to others. However, after Liu Cheng's incident, Zhu Changluo was really angry. He stood up and pointed at the body of Liu Cheng who was carrying out and said, "Governor Zhang, Duke, is what Liu Cheng said true? My civil and military officials of the Ming Dynasty even had to deduct the pensions of the fallen soldiers layer by layer? The Beijing camp, known as the last barrier of the capital, was really decayed to this point?"
The British Duke knelt down on the ground and kowtowed, "The old minister is guilty. The old minister is old and exhausted, and has no energy to supervise the Beijing camp. I hope your highness will allow the old minister to remove himself from his position as the admiral of the Beijing camp."
The British Duke was a Duke of the Kingdom, but when he saw that the prince did not have to kneel down and worship, it was not a big deal for the prince to punish the country. But at this time, Zhu Changluo knew that the British Duke was not kneeling down as the rituals of the king and his subjects, but that he was already discouraged. He was the comrades who died in battle in Liu Cheng's mouth, and the relatives of the martyrs who starved to death and froze to death.
Zhang Weixian's words made Fang Congzhe feel at a loss. Many people excused himself for his crimes, but it is rare to expose his old principles like Zhang Weixian. I don't know what he sold.
"this……"
Seeing Zhang Weixian's infatuated look, although Zhu Changluo was angry before, he hesitated at this time. Although the two had discussed this matter before and even chose a successor, the British Duke has assisted him for many years and is the most loyal confidant. Wouldn't it be better if he could get rid of the charge?
Before the martial arts performance, Zhang Weixian had made all preparations and had made plans to get rid of his post. Earlier, he offended the high-ranking officials and nobles in Beijing and recalled all the soldiers who occupied the Beijing camp as guards and guards. As well as the vacant quotas and the vacancies for the vacancies, he also erased them. For this reason, he was forced to hide in the Beijing camp for several days and dared not return home. Now he has gone to work, so he has no regrets.
Zhu Changluo calmed down and sat back on the chair and said, "The British Duke will get up first, and we will discuss this matter again. Governor Luo, Pan Limei of the right guard of the government army, has the evidence of the crime, so let the Jinyiwei handle the matter."
Luo Sigong bowed and said, "I will accept the order."
"As for the affairs of the Military Weapon Bureau, where is the Secretary of Qin?"
Qin Wenshu went out to ritual and said, "I am here."
"The case of fraud in the Military Weapon Bureau filing and fraud will be verified by the Jinyiwei and handed over to the Ministry of War for handling by themselves. Remember, the military is the basis for military combat. No matter who is involved, it must be thoroughly investigated and the general's worms are completely eliminated."
"yes."
"Ministry of Personnel."
Xu Guangqi, the left assistant minister of the Ministry of Personnel, came out of the line to ritual and said, "I am here."
"Pan Limei, the right guard of the government army, had an affair with the enemy. After Lord Xu returned, he planned to elect a commander to recommend him."
Xu Guangqi said: "Your Highness, I have a suitable person to recommend it."
Zhu Changluo asked curiously: "I wonder who Lord Xu recommends?"
Xu Guangqi said: "This man's surname is Du Dan and his name is Zhu. He is from Tongshan County, Xuzhou. He is a man of a man who is kind and righteous, and has great reason and troublesome talent. He is currently in the right guard of the government army. Du Zhu Du Yuanming has a talented position, Mao Ming, Yu Du Zhou Shen, and is diligent in his work. In the forty years of Wanli, the emperor issued two imperial edicts to confer his parents and wives to commend his talents. I think this person will be competent for the commander of the right guard of the government army."
Zhu Changluo looked around the officials present and asked, "Do you guys have any objections?"
After a long time, no one was different. Zhu Changluo was about to decide this matter. Fang Congzhe said, "Your Highness, Lord Xu's recommendation of the old minister is only apart from the commander of the right guard of the government army...", Fang Congzhe glanced at Zhang Weixian and Zhu Changluo and continued, "Since the British Duke has decided to leave, your highness will not discuss the position of the admiral of the Beijing camp together."
Zhu Changluo stared at Fang Congzhe with a bad look, but Fang Congzhe kept bowing his head and bowing but did not dare to look directly.
After staring at Fang Congzhe for a long time, Zhu Changluo said, "Since you all have no objection, the position of commander of the right guard of the government army is decided like this. As for the Beijing Camp, I am convinced that the British Duke is old and allows him to resign as the admiral of the Beijing Camp. I am grateful that he has worked hard and made great contributions and has been given the title of Taifu."
When Fang Congzhe heard that although Zhang Weixian had been removed from his position as the admiral of the Jing camp, he was given the title of Grand Tutor. Such partiality was considered blatant. He hurriedly said, "Your Highness, this matter is inappropriate. The British Duke resigned for his crime. How could he add the title of Grand Tutor?"
Zhu Changluo slapped the armrests of the seat and scolded: "Did the Master Fang point the deer and horse in front of me and distort the meaning of this palace? When did I say that the Duke of England was dismissed for his crime? There will inevitably be omissions in the 300,000 people in the Beijing camp. It is very rare for the Duke of England to detect and remedy it in time and recover the losses. The deterioration of the capital camp has started after Tumu Fort. Isn't it a bad thing for a day or a night?"
When Fang Congzhe heard that the prince actually compared him to Zhao Gao, he immediately apologized and said, "I dare not. Since this is the case, an old minister, the position of the admiral of the Beijing camp, has one elected and recommended him."
Zhu Changluo waved his hand and interrupted, "No need, this palace already has a suitable candidate, and Zhu Chunchen, the Duke of Chengguo, was appointed as the admiral of the Beijing camp."
Fang Congzhe saw Zhu Changluo ignore his intentions so much, and thought to himself that this was no longer the seriously ill Master Wanli, but he still said: "Your Highness, is it more appropriate to leave this matter to the cabinet and the ministers to discuss?"
Zhu Changluo looked at Fang Congzhe and said, "Mr. Fang has also assisted his father for decades. I would like to ask Master. Fang, the Beijing camp can be under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of War."
Fang Congzhe understood this and then quit his argument and said, "If you don't return, the capital camp is directly under the jurisdiction of the emperor."
"Since I don't have any jurisdiction, I will be in charge of the country on behalf of my father, so why should the cabinet discuss with the cabinet?"
"It's the old minister who is confused."
Zhu Changluo stood up and said, "Okay, this matter is settled. There are so many more things to do in the Beijing Camp. After such delays, I have no interest in visiting. I am also short of my life. As for the Five Military Camps, I will not visit the battle between the Three Thousand Camps and the Shenji Camp. Governor Zhang, you can take me and all the adults to rest first. After the time comes, I will go to check the individual soldiers' assessment with all the adults."
Zhang Weixian said: "Your Highness, I am no longer an elite admiral."
Zhu Changluo seemed to scold Zhang Weixian, and said to everyone: "Duke Cheng Guo has no successor for one day, so you must not relax for a day. Could it be that you resigned from the admiral today and no one will take charge of the Beijing camp today?"
Zhang Weixian said: "It's a fool."
However, just when Zhu Changluo stood up and was about to leave, Zhu Youjian, who was standing behind him, said: "Father, my son-in-law, it is inappropriate for Duke Cheng to serve as the position of admiral of the Jing camp."
Zhu Youjian knew the direction of his later generations, and when Zhu Chunchen finally led the troops of the Beijing camp to offer Qihuamen when Li Zicheng attacked Beijing, this led Chongzhen, which was Zhu Youjian who finally hanged Meishan. So when he heard that Zhu Chunchen was succeeding as the admiral of the Beijing camp, he thought about it over and over again and again, and for his own life plan, he had to speak out and dissuade him.
There was Fang Congzhe in front and Zhu Youjian in the back. Zhu Changluo scolded: "Being arrogant, how can you, a child, participate in this matter?"
Zhu Youjian wanted to say something else, but Zhu Youxiao was pulled back by his sleeves and stopped talking and followed Zhu Changluo.
Anyway, I didn't plan to hand over my life to Zhu Chunchen's guards. Now my father has the final say. If it really doesn't work, I'll just dismiss him when I have the right to speak.
Zhang Weixian led everyone to the headquarters to rest.
Nearly noon when he arrived at the headquarters, Zhu Changluo and the ministers took meals and went into the inner room to rest. Shortly after Zhu Changluo left the table, Zhu Youjian was called away by Zhu Changluo.
Zhu Changluo sat upright on the chair, and Zhu Youjian stood in front of him. At this time, all the servants in the room were sent out by Zhu Changluo, and the door was also closed tightly.
Zhu Changluo looked at Zhu Youjian and said, "Xiao Wu, can you tell me why my father scolded you today?"
Zhu Youjian replied respectfully: "My son knows."
Zhu Changluo said: "It's good that you know. The political affairs in the court are not what you should participate in now, nor are you able to participate now. Your words and deeds often represent the face of the father. Every word you say may be the instructions of others as the father. Take today for example. Those two people die in front of you. Not to mention that these two people deserve the crime, but look at the officials fighting each other. Many times, a seemingly careless sentence can make the chickens and dogs rise to heaven, and perhaps it is an unintentional sentence that will destroy people. The civil servant's mouth is a knife that kills people without blood."
"I can save it."
"My father has been busy recently and rarely meets you brothers, but he has heard others talk about your brothers. For my father, I know that it is thanks to you that your emperor's grandfather has changed his prejudice against your father, and your intelligence is still above your emperor's brother. But you are still too young and too frivolous, and you are also very sharp in your behavior. You may suffer in the future. Although you are the emperor's grandson, you still have to learn to keep a low profile."
"My son is obeying the teachings of the father."
This was the first time Zhu Youjian heard his father say so much since time traveling. However, he met Zhu Changluo for a few years. Thinking of his parents in his previous life, he always felt a little awkward when he saw the face in front of him. Even the person in front of him was not as friendly as the sick Emperor Wanli.
"Xiao Wu, my father has something to warn you that it is a foregone conclusion that succession to the throne for his father has been in conflict with the foundation of the country for decades. I know the disadvantages of it. Although you can surpass your prince, the position of the prince in the future will still be your prince. Remember the words of your father today and assist your brother in the future. You must not have any brothers' conflicts."
