"Huh? What else is there?" Zhu Di asked doubtfully.

Xie Jin took a look at Ji Gang, who had already returned from Jiaxing Mansion, standing beside Zhu Dilong's case like a wooden statue, and said:

"Long live, Lu Chonglou, the prefect of Jiaxing, Song Changlian, Marquis of Xiyang, Hu Guang, a scholar of Wenyuan Pavilion... and others have jointly signed a letter to impeach Ji Gang, the commander of Jinyiwei, for accepting bribes, killing people indiscriminately, and crippling Zhongliang. This crime is punishable! "

As soon as Xie Jin finished speaking, Zhu Di's face darkened, and he glanced at Ji Gang.

Ji Gang knelt down in front of Zhu Di at the right time, and said, "I am guilty!"

Xie Jin is at a loss. There are still traces of Han Wang's killing of those little Japanese before, but what's going on with Ji Gang?

He didn't believe that Ji Gang dared to kill court officials and civilians indiscriminately without Zhu Di's will.

"Ji Qing's family, get up, this matter has nothing to do with you!" Zhu Di waved his hand and winked at Sanbao eunuch.

Eunuch Sanbao nodded, and took a few steps forward to take the memorial from Xie Jin's hand.

Zhu Di opened it casually, just glanced at it, and slammed the memorial on the ground.

"Damn it, I just killed a few princes and uncles, and these people jumped out by themselves. Do you really think I don't know about the connection between them?"

Ji Gang picked up the memorial from the ground and glanced at it. He didn't say anything else. It was just that Ji Gang slaughtered Zhongliang in the Jiaxing Mansion and framed the nobles... The last series of handprints made Ji Gang frowned. stand up.

Lu Chonglou, Song Changlian, Hu Guang... no less than a dozen people, each one of them, even if they didn't hold important positions in the court, they were also hereditary marquises and earls.

This time, they really paid for it.

"Your Majesty, some of the people killed this time have some relationship with Hu Guang." Ji Gang pointed at the memorial in his hand, "According to the news from Jin Yiwei's spies, these people have always been secretly connected."

Ji Gang didn't care that Xie Jin was still by his side, and quietly uttered such a sentence.

Xie Jin broke into a cold sweat when he heard this. The Jinyiwei is too pervasive. If there is a Jinyiwei in his house...

When he thought of this, he subconsciously shook his head, this matter was terrible.

"Catch them all for me!" Zhu Di's eyes flashed a stern light, "There is no need for 'cliques' in my court!"

clique!

Hiss, Zhu Di's words were too harsh, he directly set Hu Guang's personality as a 'clique'!

The so-called cronies refer to groups and factions, mostly formed by colluding with each other to fight for power and exclude dissidents. "Warring States Policy Zhao Policy II" contains: "The minister heard that King Ming absolutely doubted and slandered him, blocked the traces of rumors, and closed the door of the cronies."

For example, the scourge of the Party Gu in the Eastern Han Dynasty, the Niu Li Party Controversy in the Tang Dynasty, and the Yuanyou Party Case in the Song Dynasty are all the biggest ones in history.

Xie Jin frowned, and finally said: "Long live, is it too early to say that they are cronies? Besides, if the court arrests them without evidence, it will be the people of the world..." To be continued.)

2 Chapter sixty

"Shut up!" Zhu Di scolded with red eyes, "The 'Hu Party' in Hongwu's 13th year, and the 'Blue Party' in Hongwu's 4?? After Hu Dang' becomes powerful, will I be emptied?"

In the 13th year of Hongwu, Zhu Yuanzhang punished Prime Minister Hu Weiyong's nine clans for the crime of "conspiracy".

In the 23rd year of Hongwu, Zhu Yuanzhang executed Han Gong Li Shanchang, Liehou Lu Zhongheng, descendants of the late Teng Guogong Gu Shi and other founding heroes for the crime of conspiring with Hu Weiyong.A total of more than [-] people were killed before and after, and it was called the "Prison of the Hu Party" at that time.

In the 26th year of Hongwu, in order to strengthen the centralization of power, Zhu Yuanzhang wanted to implicate and kill famous heroes on the pretext that Lanyu, the Duke of Liang, wanted to rebel.More than [-] people were implicated and killed because of the Lanyu case, which was called the "Blue Party" at the time.

These two "clique cases" caused a great sensation in the Ming Dynasty at that time.

Of course, this does not rule out that it was Zhu Yuanzhang's political incident in order to eradicate the ministers with high meritorious service. After all, every dynasty has no shortage of emperors who killed meritorious officials.

"Ji Gang, quickly go to the Weizhong to summon the Jinyiwei, lead a thousand soldiers from the Weizhong, and immediately go to Jiaxing Mansion to arrest Lu Chonglou, Song Changlian and others. I will ask Zhu Shaoqian to cooperate with you!" Zhu Di immediately ordered the arrest.

"Long live, they won't accept such an arrest for no reason, and the common people will talk about you." Xie Jin simply knelt on the ground with a plop, and advised Zhu Di: "This is not good for the court or for Long live. It's useless!"

"Could it be possible that I'm going to watch their 'clique' grow stronger and stronger?" Zhu Di stared at Xie Jin, and said, "When they can control the government, won't I become a puppet emperor?"

Zhu Di's words may seem alarmist, but in fact there is some truth.

You must know that although none of these people are in the first or second rank, among them, Hu Guang is an attendant of the Imperial Academy. Like Xie Jin and others, he often accompanies the king.

Under the current trend that the Hanlin Academy is gradually stepping into the political center of the imperial court, it is really possible for Hu Guang to form a "Hu Party" with influence all over the Ming Dynasty!

In fact, Zhu Di was extremely angry when he arrested Lu Chonglou and others so unabashedly.

Hearing Xie Jin's words now, he also began to frown. He couldn't let the people in the world pour dirty water on Zhu Di because of this incident!

After bowing his head and thinking for a long time, Zhu Di suddenly said: "Three treasures, pass on the decree, including officials, censors, and the Imperial Academy, and the ministers and workers of each academy can strictly investigate illegal incidents, allow rumors to be played, and correct each other. !"

Xie Jin was shocked when he heard the words, and kowtowed again: "Long live, rumors and rumors, correcting each other, is the worst strategy to adopt when the world is helpless. In this way, there will be turmoil and everyone will be in danger, even if the crime is reported. , and it’s hard to tell the truth from the fake!”

The so-called rumors and rumors refer to those who report, and they can participate in the ministers based on rumors and hearsay, without having to produce real evidence or sign.

If this case is opened, I am afraid that officials and ministers in power who are admonishing Taiwan will definitely be in trouble.

"Humph, authenticity!" Zhu Di snorted coldly, and said, "Let me tell the truth! Xie Qing, you must know that when the bad strategy is used, it is often the best strategy!"

"The minister obeys the order!"

At this time, Xie Jin had no choice but to kowtow.

……

At noon that day, in the Chuhua Hall in the front yard of King Han's Mansion.

Xie Jin sat on a chair drinking tea and waiting, and Liu Changsheng and Bai Fu appeared in the hall together.

"Bachelor Xie, I'm really sorry. The mansion is busy with business. I trouble you to wait in the mansion. It's my fault!" Bai Fu and Liu Changsheng cupped their hands to Xie Jin.

"Bai Changshi and Liu Changshi are polite!" Xie Jin bowed his hands and said, "You two long history, I don't know if His Royal Highness King Han has ever returned to the mansion?"

Bai Fu shook his head, and said: "A few days ago, the lord sent a letter and said that he would stay in Huai'an mansion for a while. Why, Mr. Xie, what is the matter with my lord?"

Hearing Bai Fu's words, Xie Jin shook his head slightly, and said, "Originally there were some things, but since the prince is not here, then..."

"Hahaha, what's the matter? It's really a big honor for me to bother Master Xie to come to the door in person!" At this moment, a hearty laughter came in, interrupting Xie Jin's words.

"My lord!"

Bai Fu and Liu Changsheng turned their heads to take a look, only to find that the travel-worn Zhu Song had just entered the Chuhua Hall and was taking off a light blue cloak.

"When did you come back?" Liu Changsheng asked in surprise.

"Just arrived in Nanjing City!" Zhu Song said with a smile, "I haven't gone to the palace to give orders yet."

This is Zhu Song. If he puts it on someone else, he must first go to the palace to give Zhu Di an order. Otherwise, he will be negligent of the holy will, which is a reason for him to be sent to prison.

As for Zhu Song, anyway, he did a good job this time, plus what Zhang Fu brought into the palace, Zhu Di would not only not blame him, but would reward him heavily.
