Chapter 243 The last court meeting

The stars are bright, and the stars are like the sea.

The Jingyang Palace is as bright as daytime, and the Imperial Study Room is brightly lit.

Wei Zhongxian stood respectfully not far from the imperial table, bowed down and said, "Emperor, Zhao Nanxing has convinced Yang Lian and others to the court tomorrow, the censors, the ministers and other Donglin Party members..."

"Not to say these..."

Zhu Xu took a sip of tea, put down the teacup, and interrupted: "You send someone to follow the Censorate. Whenever they pass by the place, they will find out major cases for me. The more the better, the bigger the better."

Although Wei Zhongxian read a lot of Zhang Juzheng's books, he could not understand Zhu Xu's ambitions. He just thought that Zhu Xu would deal with the Censorate and then deal with the annoying Zhao Nanxing and others.

He bowed slightly and said in great awe: "Abide by the order."

Zhu Xu looked at him and smiled, tapped his fingers on the table, pondered for a while and suddenly said: "I will give you two more places, Dali Temple Shaoqing and the Minister of Justice."

Wei Zhongxian's expression moved slightly. He knew that the emperor's scheming and terrible plan would never give anything to others for free. He bowed again and said, "Please tell me."

Zhu Xu looked up and looked out the dark door. His eyes were flashing, saying, "After every incident, you immediately call the Censorate, the Ministry of Justice, and the Dali Temple for trial. Remember, locally! Don't borrow other yamen and prepare the government yamen, it is called... Sansiyamen. In the future, all litigation in one yamen will be the Sansiyamen."

Wei Zhongxian's eyes changed slightly. He struggled in power for half his life, but he didn't understand Zhu Xu's intentions and consequences!

Criminal lawsuits have a special status in government agencies like one prefecture and one county. If they are given power ranking, this is not the first and second!

In his opinion, Zhu Xu may be able to hide it for a while with this method, but it cannot last long. If the parents of the government level in the world are dissatisfied with the emperor, it will be an extremely terrible thing!

However, Wei Zhongxian is just positioning him as Zhu Xu, a smart dog. He bows and says, "Yes, I guarantee that every state will have a three or four yamen."

Zhu Xu naturally would not doubt Wei Zhongxian's ability. He nodded with a smile and said, "Tomorrow, you can enter the palace."

Wei Zhongxian's expression changed again. He knew what Zhu Xu's words meant. He bowed deeply: "I thanked the emperor and would like to crush the emperor to pieces, and I will do whatever I can!"

Zhu Xu stood up, smiled more and said with his hands behind his back: "Well, go to Wenzhao Pavilion and meet King Xin."

Wei Zhongxian was shocked, but he pressed him down and told him to calm down, but he still couldn't guess what Zhu Xu meant, so he had to say: "Abide by the order."

Zhu Xu gave a few more words, and Wei Zhongxian took his leave with tactfulness.

Zhu Xu walked out of the imperial table, stood in front of the imperial study door, stretched out his arms, and looked at the stars in the sky.

"Xiao Cao, what kind of weather will be tomorrow?"

Cao Huachun stood behind Zhu Xu, looked up and said softly: "Your Majesty, I think it will rain tomorrow, so I plan to re-arrange rainproof fortifications in the palace."

Zhu Xu smiled. Cao Huachun had learned a lot after he had been with him for a long time. What he wanted to arrange was not rainproof fortifications, but to reorganize the palace and ensure safety!

Not long after, Wei Zhongxian left Wenzhao Pavilion and quietly left the palace under the leadership of a group of eunuchs.

Zhu Youjian stood in front of Wen Zhao Pavilion, looking up at the sky, but his face was solemn, and he was extremely worried.

Wang Chengen, who was bent down beside him, looked at Zhu Youjian's side face, and thought and said, "Prince, are you worried about the emperor?"

Zhu Youjian breathed a deep breath and said, "Yes, the emperor is arbitrarily launching troops, causing chaos in the national garrison, which is uneasy. In addition, the current treasury tax and silver are exhausted and the cabinet is abandoned. Now, the cause of this eunuch party is even more necessary. The whole world is subject to his nature. I am worried that if this continues, my Ming Dynasty will be afraid of danger."

Wang Chengen was a little fat, with a round face, and looked at Zhu Youjian with his big eyes open, thinking for a while, "Prince, why don't you persuade the emperor more?"

Zhu Youjian smiled bitterly and said, "Your Majesty, you know too. You have always had an idea. When you were still in Jinghuan Palace, you couldn't even control your brother. Now that you are the emperor, who can control it? I want to fill the cabinet and advise the emperor more to pick up the leftovers and fill in the gaps, and don't go astray, but the emperor seems to know what I think, and walk ahead of me in everything, and don't give me any chance..."

Wang Chengen looked at Zhu Youjian’s rare bitterness, and his heart sank and his face felt sad.

Zhu Youjian said for a while, and seemed to feel embarrassed. He raised his foot and said, "I'll be here today and follow me out of the palace."

Wang Chengen nodded and followed. He knew that the prince was going to go to various places of the leader of the Donglin Party.

Early the next morning, Zhu Xu was dressed neatly. Under the leadership of Cao Huachun and his men, he walked into the Huangji Hall and sat on the dragon throne.

His small body forms an extremely sharp contrast with the ministers in this brilliant hall and the hall.

Cao Huachun stepped forward as usual and shouted: "All things are reported early!"

Immediately, Chen Liangxun stood up, held the board, raised his hand to Zhu Xu and said, "Emperor, I impeached Sun Chengzong, the assistant minister of the cabinet, and wanted to greed for power, cultivate party members, and slaughter soldiers, causing trouble to the world. Wars are everywhere. Please dismiss it and hand it over to the Ministry for trial!"

"I'm going to discuss it!"

"I'm going to discuss it!"

"I'm going to discuss it!"

When a personal figure stands up, they are all censors and clerks.

Yang Lian stood there, his expression still.

Apart from him, Zhang Woxu and Xu Dahua from the eunuch party, Fu Changzong from the Zhu Xu direct party, Zhou Yingqiu and others, and then the rest were neutral and not involved in the party struggles.

After these people "suggested" the discussion, no one spoke, and they all looked at Zhu Xu at the top.

In Zhu Xu's opinion, this was Kedao's last court discussion, with the belief of being kind to others. As usual, he turned to look at Zhu Youjian and said lightly: "King Xin, what do you think?"

Zhu Youjian was used to it and went out to report: "I agree with it when I return to the emperor."

Zhu Xu looked below again. As Chen Liangxun and others were looking at him, Zhu Xu deliberately paused for a while and said, "I will send an order, and I will be transferred back to the capital after I leave the errand of the Ministry of War led by Sun Chengzong."

The ministers, especially Yang Lian, were stunned and looked up at Zhu Xu in shock.

In their opinion, Zhu Xu would never agree. After all, the soldiers and horses in the world are now controlled by Sun Chengzong. He is Zhu Xu's most important confidant in "willfulness". He must work hard to protect him.

However, this was an unexpected gain from the court officials, but it also undermined his deployment. According to the plan, they would next violently impeach Sun Chengzong and try to pull him off.

Chen Liangxun is an old minister of the three dynasties. He is the most experienced and has the deepest skills among the staff. After a moment of reaction, he played loudly, "Speak to the emperor, please add the auxiliary ministers of the cabinet to..."

"Report to the Emperor, Wei Zhongxian asked for a visit."

Before Chen Liangxun finished speaking, an eunuch hurriedly ran up and said loudly.
