Zhu Cijing has been very excited during this period, especially today, the planning of the military factory has finally been completed and construction can be started soon. According to the planning progress, it can be completed before the system will be issued with the flintlock reward.

By then, once the flintlock spear is launched, the combat power of the Ming army will definitely increase rapidly. Although it cannot be said that it is invincible in the world, there is no problem in protecting itself.

He didn't expect that as soon as the order to allocate silver was sent to the Ministry of Revenue, Sun Chengzong immediately poured a basin of cold water on him.

On this day, after the morning court, Zhu Cijing came to the imperial study room as usual to accompany Sun Chengzong and Zhu Youjian to review the memorials.

Before the memorial was opened in the cabinet, Sun Chengzong took out a large handful of memorials from his arms and asked seriously: "Master, are you planning to allocate one million taels of silver to build a military factory?"

Oh no, I was so excited that I forgot to get in touch with Sun Chengzong and Zhu Youjian. I didn’t know about such a big thing, and it was indeed a bit too much. He smiled awkwardly and said, “Hehe, this, this is indeed something. I was too happy for a moment and forgot to tell you.”

Sun Chengzong was not confused about this problem. He handed the memorial in his hand to Cao Huachun and said lightly: "This is the memorial of Xiong Zezhen, the Henan Dao Supervisor, and the Ministry of Rites's Office, Qu Shizi and others impeached the Minister of Rites Xu Guangqi. You can read it to the emperor."

Cao Huachun took over the memorial and saw that Zhu Cijiu did not object, so he started to recite it loudly.

What a good guy, it was all impeached by Xu Guangqi. These memorials were so poisonous.

Xu Guangqi did not think about the saints' learning and preferred curious lewd skills, which was a shame for scholars and was not worthy of being an official in the court;

Xu Guangqi, who is named the Emperor's Master, is actually a poison master. He uses the barbarian learning to poison the emperor, and his crimes should be punished;

What is Xu Guangqi's crime of instigating the emperor to spend 2 million yuan to build a useless military factory, which is unforgivable;

......

According to their opinion, Xu Guangqi is simply a treacherous minister. Not being able to quell public anger without dismissal!

What kind of high-ranking official is the Censor and the Censorate? He dares to impeach the presiding cabinet and the Minister of Rites?

In fact, the Censor and the Censorate are not very high-ranking officials. On the contrary, their rank is very low, and they are all "seventh-rank sesame officials", but they have great power, so great that even the emperor dares to scold them!

Why is this happening? Here I have to introduce the Ming Dynasty's scientific and technological system.

The so-called "Kao Dao" refers to the thirteen supervisory censors of the six departments of official, household, etiquette, military, punishment, and engineering. The six departments of official affairs were called sect officials in the Ming Dynasty, and the thirteen supervisory censors were called sect officials. Together, they were called "Kao Dao Dao" and were mainly responsible for impeachment and preventing officials from perfunctory and illegally violating laws and disciplines.

These six departments are dedicated to supervising officials from six departments, which is equivalent to the current discipline inspection department.

These thirteen supervisors are specifically responsible for supervising officials across the country, which is equivalent to the current prosecutor. The supervisors are affiliated with the Censorate, which is equivalent to the current prosecutor.

But the discipline inspection officials and prosecutors in the Ming Dynasty were different from those in the modern era, because the Ming Taizu stipulated that they could "report the news" and make suggestions to the emperor directly, and it didn't matter if they said it wrong. Officials at all levels were strictly prohibited from taking personal revenge!

In other words, if they want to investigate whom they want to impeach, there is no need for a letter of reporting. As long as they are "reported" they can "talk about it"!

Zhu Yuanzhang's starting point was good, and he wanted to use these people to supervise officials and prevent corruption, but the responsibilities he set were infinitely magnified by some of the ministers behind him, and even to the extent that he could directly dissuade the emperor! This also laid the root of disaster for the later bureaucratic group and the emperor for national control, and even made various party struggles intensify, which often led to officials regarding quarrels as their main business, and no one cared about the government!

As a master of power struggle, Qian Qianyi naturally knew the role of these censors and officials, so his daily life was to win over such "censors" in the Donglin Party and prepare to use these "censors" as his promotion level. After several years of preparation, it finally came in handy today. Qian Qianyi waved his hand and the memorial to impeach Xu Guangqi flew towards the palace like snowflakes and smashed it towards Zhu Cijiong.

Zhu Cijiu has heard of the power of these censors. Their ability to "listen to the wind and speak" is not a fan of it. Moreover, they also like to be crazy and make trouble. They always go to the palace and force the emperor to accept their suggestions. If you don't accept them, they will make trouble. The so-called "crying", "two chasing", "three......", uh, these three are not hanging, but hunger strikes, and kneeling in the palace for hunger strikes.

You don’t listen, right? If you don’t listen, we will die of a hunger strike. Go to the ground to ask Emperor Taizu to complain. Let’s see how you unworthy descendants face the ancestors!

This move is cruel. This unfilial piety was a taboo in the Ming Dynasty. Even the emperor dared not be unfilial, so Emperor Wanli and Emperor Tianqi were both annoyed by these censors and did not dare to go to court!

Emperor Wanli of the Ming Shenzong hid in the harem to cultivate one's character, but Emperor Xizong of the Ming Dynasty simply started to play carpenter work. If I can't afford to offend, I can't hide, right?

Will this happen when Emperor Chongzheng Zhu Cijing?

After listening to Cao Huachun's memorial, Zhu Cijing was so angry that he was so angry that he was so arrogant. Is these people crazy or something? Building a military factory is related to their affairs!

Now that the trouble is so big, he is not very afraid of these madmen, but he is not afraid of others! He can't go to build a military factory by himself, and he still has to rely on Xu Guangqi and others to do it. Now these madmen are blocking the front, who dares to go!

For a moment, Zhu Cijiu couldn't think of any solution, so he had to say perfunctorily: "Well, the matter of building a military factory is not the idea of ​​his mentor, but my intention. Why don't you explain it and let them stop making trouble."

Sun Chengzong looked at Zhu Cijing helplessly, his eyes full of disbelief. You said that you, a six-year-old child, want to build a military factory in a radius of three or four miles. Who would believe it? But he is not the kind of person who likes to fight. Otherwise, he would not have retired when the eunuch party and the Donglin party are in full swing.

He also wanted to calm down the situation, so he reluctantly accepted Zhu Cijiong's "excusation" and replied with a little hesitation: "Then I will try it, I don't know if they will listen. If possible, the emperor should stop this matter."

Just kidding, how can this matter be stopped? Just pointing at this military factory to produce weapons. If it stops, it will be nothing more!

Zhu Cijing also knew that this was not Sun Chengzong's original intention, so he did not reject him in person, but just asked him to try his best to persuade these censors. He thought that with Sun Chengzong's prestige, the matter should be settled soon, but he did not expect that this matter was not that simple at all.
Chapter completed!
