Chapter 339

Chongzhen looked at the memorial in front of him and shook his head repeatedly, his face unhappy.¥f,.

It was just when Liu Jun needed to cooperate in launching a fierce offensive in the east that Liu Jun dug trenches under the city of Gaizhou, and digged round after round, and in half a month, six trenches around the city were dug.

He was still too Pang Xin to treat Liu Jun. Liaodong Governor Fan Zhiwan reported that Liu Jun was very domineering in Liaodong. When he convened a military discussion, he actually excluded Liaodong's governor, military supervisor, and other civil servants.

What does Liu Jun want to do?

Using civil servants to control military affairs is the ancestral system. Using internal officials to supervise the military is the means of the past emperors to control the military, but now Liu Jun has regarded the army as a private person. He can leave the side with the superiors, such as the governor, the governor, and the emperor who specializes in private officials, inspectors, and the military censors. This is not only a problem of domineeringness.

Liu Jun has been in command of the Chu army for less than three years, and it has been a one-man rule in the army in the short term. If it takes longer, then no one can take care of it.

Chongzhen didn't think that Liu Jun would have any unpleasant intentions at the moment, and he still believed in Liu Jun's loyalty. But some holes could not be opened. Once the hole was opened, it would be impossible to block it in the future. The ambitions also increased little by little. If there is no now, it does not mean that there will be no in the future. Liu Jun is only in his early twenties and is less than ten years older than the prince. If he blindly indulges, sooner or later, things will be out of control.

As emperors, they are deeply vigilant about military power. They will never delegate military power in a slight manner. The generals lead the troops, but they will send other governors to govern, supervise the military censors, and send internal officials to supervise the military to ensure the security at all levels.

At the same time, the court also controlled the supply of food and salary for the army, which stuck to the throat of the army.

But now, Liu Jun's Chu army, the governors, the inspectors and the censors, could not get in, and the food and salary did not rely on the court. He was also in the overseas land of Liaodong. It was really a high place and the emperor was far away.

In the Qianqing Hall, six grandsons of the cabinet, six ministers, six ministers, the chief censors, the chief censors, the ministers of Dali Temple, and the ministers of the other six ministries, and the ministers of the six departments were also present. In addition, the eunuchs in the chief eunuchs in the chief eunuchs in the chief eunuchs, and the king of the admirals in the east factory, and the four eunuchs in the chief eunuchs in the chief eunuchs were also on the side.

The people sitting in the hall were all important officials and important officials in the court. It can be said that the court made major decisions. Basically, they were made by these people. The emperor summoned so many important officials to come, so he must discuss important matters.

Zhou Yanru glanced at Wu Yan, who was beside him, and had long guessed that the focus of today's discussion must be related to Liu Jun.

Wu Changshi had already contacted and met with the Jiangbei Party. After temptation, the two sides finally held a round of secret negotiations and finally reached an agreement on Liu Jun's issue.

Many strategies implemented by Liu Jun's Chu Party greatly affected the interests of gentry, officials and landlords, especially the policies they implemented to customs, commercial taxes, and rectification of garrisons and clean up military farms. However, these things have received strong support from the emperor and cannot be mentioned on the table for the time being. They now have to borrow Liu Jun's negative performance in Gaizhou to attack Liu Jun.

Liu Jun made a big mistake.

He actually concealed a large number of new artillery from the emperor and the court, which was a little too greedy. Just hide these artillery, but you can't trade horses with Wu Sangui in private, but you shouldn't have to set up a cannon to attack and fight. The new artillery was fierce and easily blasted the city walls, but Liu Jun did not attack and fight. This exposed Liu Jun's many new artillery, and secondly, it exposed Liu Jun's passive avoidance of war.

If this happened a month ago, maybe the court would recognize it with a pinch of its nose and just pretend that it didn't see it. But in western Liaoning, the imperial army led by Hong Chengchou, Sun Chuanting, Wu Sangui was at the time of victory, and the mistakes made by Liu Jun at the city of Gaizhou seemed a little unacceptable.

In the past, Liu Jun has often paid a lot of money in Beijing. The Censorate, the Sixth Division, the Cabinet, and the Sixth Department, and the Sixth Department have taken a lot of money from Liu Jun. Those money has indeed made Liu Jun not impeached for any fault.

But this time it was different. With the first auxiliary support from the cabinet, Zhou Yanru and Wu Yan, the two censors of the cabinet, joined forces to impeach Liu Jun. There were 58 clerks in the six departments and more than 100 censors, and nearly half of the censors of the Kedao censors were on the bullet.

Many bullets impeached Liu Jun passively avoided the war, while many memorials were more intensely verbally, impeaching Liu Jun to be respectful, and some people impeached him to be respectful, and even more arrogant.

It is a rare time in recent years that so many censors impeached one person together and were still a military general. In the court, every time the officials who were impeached by the censors of the Ministry of Justice would never have a good end. In many cases, such impeachment is often a prelude to the party’s confrontation and a major purge.

Under normal circumstances, even civil officials like local governors must resign. And military generals like Liu Jun must return to Beijing immediately for investigation.

Although the responsibilities of the Censors of Kedao have different emphasis, they are all censors. They have the right to impeach. If they are targeted by them, they will have to lose their skin even if they don’t die. Moreover, they are still impeached by so many censors.

Especially those six subjects, they are the same as those in the local area, with low rank but heavy weight. The Ming Dynasty's ministers were original creations that were not found in previous dynasties. The Ming Dynasty's ministers could not only inspect the losses of the six ministries and officials, but also acted as officials participating in examinations at all levels, court discussions, court recommendations, and court recommendations such activities that only officials of various departments could participate in, which also included these officials of only seventh ranks. This shows how powerful their power was.

Moreover, these officials used prestigious but shallow-in-class officials, using their youthful and vigorous enthusiasm.

The inspector of the Censorate and the six departments are the most ideal positions for young Jinshi of the Ming Dynasty. With the seventh-rank sesame sketch, the chief of the staff can participate in the court discussion and the court recommends these officials to attend. The seventh-rank inspection can be on par with the governor and the governor.

A censor of the Department will enter the fast lane of promotion. If you can serve as a senior official and minister in the internal affairs department, you will become famous all over the world and gain a reputation. In the future, you will be able to quickly serve as a local prefect or even a doctor in various departments. In the future, you will be able to be promoted to the minister of the court.

Liu Jun was originally a very suitable target for impeachment, and was promoted very quickly, and was granted a title of marquis and dukes, and even had military officers and military generals as admirals, commanded several troops and horses, etc. There were too many places where impeachment could be done.

But all the censors who impeached Liu Jun returned in a defeat. Their impeachment memorials were all gone without exception and were kept at the sea. Later, Liu Jun's teacher entered the cabinet and became the chief assistant. Liu Jun was accepted as the adopted son by the emperor, and many censors retreated. Later, Liu Jun took out a large handful of silver and threw it out. After receiving the silver, everyone stopped beating Liu Jun.

But this time, the cabinet assisted the support for the first time.

In particular, many censors found out that the emperor actually transferred a memorial to Wu Changshi impeachment of Liu Jun to the cabinet and the six ministries and officials to read it. The censors were all excited.

What the censors are good at is observing the scenery and colors.

In the eyes of these smart young censors, the emperor's actions have changed.

If the wind changes, you have to change the rudder.

Although they all took Liu Jun's money, they did not prevent them from impeaching Liu Jun at all, and each wording was more intense than the other.

The chief censor Liu Zongzhou was the immediate superior of the Censorate, and he was in charge of the Censorate and a famous Donglin Party member. He became a candidate for the Grand Secretary of the Cabinet several times in his early years, but he failed to pass the court and was demoted several times for confronting the emperor.

He is now in charge of the Censorate, but in fact he was reused and activated when Mei Zhihuan and Li Changgeng took charge of the cabinet. But now, Liu Zongzhou not only has no control over this impeachment, but has followed the situation and even incited the flames to strengthen this round of impeachment.

Liu Zongzhou was called the last Confucian master of the Ming Dynasty by people at that time. The Qishan School he founded had a huge influence, especially in Confucianism. The talented men such as Huang Zongxi, Chen Que, and Zhang Luxiang in Fushe were all his disciples.

Liu Zongzhou was very stubborn. He could not even pull back the nine cows when he decided. Even the emperor dared to face the court and never gave in. He also saw the government and state affairs clearly. He said that today's affairs are very bad, and they do not talk about the fact that they are in the middle and outside. They need to be rescued urgently to relieve the breakup in a short time. Moreover, the far-reaching and intense period is not the day when the post is in trouble, and the evil caused by the fuzzy has been severely affected. Now that we have one or two correct people in the affairs, the local troubles will not collapse in one day. The enemy is in trouble, and the people involved are in a hurry to be in the military and country, and no action is satisfactory. I am afraid that there will be changes every day, so our scholars and officials do not know where to die.

He believed that if the state affairs are so in this way, our party and I have a guilty conviction. He also had a deep reflection on the "righteous gentleman" and said that many Donglin Party members often act for their own reputation and cannot be sincerely responsible for the country. He also said that if the world collapses, they will die without a place to bury themselves. He once said to his disciples with great pain that the crime of our party is above the Song people, and it is not a falsehood.

Liu Zongzhou was a Confucian master, a member of the Donglin party, and a man who regarded himself as a decent gentleman. He had a clear understanding of Donglin. He supported Mei Zhihuan and Li Changgeng at the time, but now he supported Wu Yan. On the issue of Liu Jun, he firmly agreed that he could not indulge Liu Jun. He believed that this was an extremely dangerous sign. If the party struggles to ruin the country, then once the generals fully grasp the army, it would be even more dangerous.

This is entirely due to long-term concerns of the DPRK, not due to the common opposition of the Party.

But with the support of this censor, the censors' attacks became more and more fierce.

All the monarchs and ministers of the palace, from the emperor to the seventh rank of the guild, felt that the situation outside the pass was very good, and it was time to curb Liu Jun.

The officials in the hall were waiting for the emperor to speak.
