Jiajing likes internal struggle among his ministers to demonstrate his authority, because when internal struggle among his ministers, they will try every means to flatter him as the emperor, in order to win his support and defeat his opponent.

In this way, he, the emperor, became particularly important, and the imperial power could be reflected to the greatest extent.

Yan Song knew this very well, so he often fought with others to satisfy Jiajing's hobbies and to eliminate dissidents.

However, Jiajing did not want to see the ministers fighting too fiercely, because they were too fierce, it would be difficult to control. He did not want to cause chaos in the court because of the fierce factional struggle. In that case, it would be a bit unworthy of the loss.

Yan Shifan knew this very well, so he made this trick to falsely impeach his father and caused the illusion that the court was about to be in chaos.

When Jiajing saw the number of memorials, he saw some nonsensical things that Yan Shifan had specially arranged for someone to report, and he was indeed fooled.

This guy has hundreds of impeachment memorials, which is not bad. You know, there are only a thousand court officials in Beijing, and hundreds of people will participate in this day. If they are allowed to continue to develop, the court will not be in chaos.

He was quite clear about Yang Cong's ability. If this guy really wanted to be ruthless, let alone hundreds of people, thousands of people could shout. After all, in addition to the officials in Beijing, there are also local officials.

He also knew Yan Song's ability. If Yang Cong really angered Yan Song, Yan Song would not have come to him with a memorial. This guy would probably mobilize hundreds of officials to impeach Yang Cong.

If it really develops like that, it will be impossible to deal with it. Everyone will not do serious business all day long. Just racking their brains to impeach others. Will anyone still need to take care of the government?

He felt that it was necessary to come forward and say that it would be almost the same as the fight, and it would be bad if it delayed the main business.

Of course, this was just his idea. He didn't know that he was fooled by Yan Song again.

Yang Cong didn't know that Yan Song and Yan Shifan had launched a counterattack. Jiajing summoned each other, and he just thought it was for the sake of the Nanjing Minister of Revenue Yan Maoqing's corruption and abuse of power. After all, everyone knew that Yang Jisheng was his disciple, and Jiajing could not have known it.

As for Yan Song, he never thought that he could overturn the person in one go. This time, it would be good to be disgusted with the old fox.

He was still full of confidence when he came to Qianqing Palace. Unexpectedly, after the monarch and ministers, Jiajing asked inexplicably: "Qingfeng, do you want to be the chief minister of the cabinet?"

What does this mean?

Who doesn’t want to be the prime minister of the cabinet? The problem is that he knows that he is still too young and has a little lack of qualifications, so he has never considered the issue of becoming the prime minister of the cabinet at this moment.

Jiajing's tone was definitely not trying to promote him to be the chief minister of the cabinet. This was probably a test of him.

Thinking of this, he quickly denied: "I haven't thought about this yet."

Unexpectedly, Jiajing refused to give in: "Qingfeng, I can understand that you want to be the chief minister of the cabinet, but you can't be too hasty. This chief minister of the cabinet is not that easy to be, you still need to be a hard work."

What does this mean?

Did Jiajing take the wrong medicine or what happened?

Yang Cong already realized something was wrong, but he didn't know why Jiajing suddenly insisted that he wanted to be the chief minister of the cabinet.

He could only continue to deny: "Your Majesty, I really haven't thought about being the chief minister of the cabinet. Maybe, I'm old, I will think about it, but now, I really haven't thought about it."

You kid, are you still trying to be careless with me?

Jiajing pointed to the memorials on the table and asked angrily: "Since you have never thought of being the chief minister of the cabinet, why did you mobilize so many people to impeach Wei Zhong?"

this!

How do you say this?

Of course he knew that these two court officials were desperately impeaching Yan Song. This was originally something he secretly instructed Yang Jisheng to do.

However, he didn't know that Yan Shifan was secretly making trouble in secret, and ordered people to falsify himself. He just thought that it was fence-bearing, or that some people who had a grudge against Yan Song were taking the opportunity to take revenge.

Even if you know this kind of thing, you can't say it out loud.

He could only say vaguely: "I just discovered that Yan Maoqing, the Minister of Revenue in Nanjing, had an illegal act. I thought that the emperor could punish him. I really don't know anything else."

You boy, are you still stubborn?

Jiajing picked up Yang Jisheng's memorial and waved it gently: "Yang Jisheng, the Censor of the Censorate, impeached Yan Maoqing, the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue in Nanjing, to commit corruption and abuse the law, embezzled salt to attract income. Is this your secret command?"

When Yang Cong heard this, he wanted to roll his eyes.

Is it necessary to say this so directly?

He could only continue to say vaguely: "This, Zhongfang did come to ask the Wei minister before submitting the report."

Jiajing shook his head helplessly and said, "Qingfeng, the future is long, why should you be anxious for a while? I don't know whether Yan Maoqing has embezzled salt to attract income. However, it is too ridiculous for you to impeach Weizhong. What is Weizhong bribing Xia Yan to the throne, what is Weizhong's nepotism to promote his son Yan Shifan, and what is Weizhong's affair with the Tartars? Will anyone believe these things?"

Damn, what a mess?

Will Yang Jisheng do such a ridiculous thing?

Yang Cong believed that his disciples were definitely not so stupid, and these were definitely not what Yang Jisheng ordered to submit.

He shook his head without hesitation and said, "Your Majesty, I really didn't make anyone slander Lord Yan so much."

Jiajing gently threw Yang Jisheng's memorial on the table, and then said without any doubt: "Okay, let's stop here. Take these memorials back and take a look at them. Don't do such a ridiculous thing in the future."

Yang Cong is so inexplicable, what's going on?

However, he didn't dare to refute. Jiajing is a famous stubborn donkey. If you dare to fight him, there will definitely be no good results.

He could only honestly pick up the memorial on the table and retreat respectfully.

What's going on?

Yang Cong took the memorial back to his duty room. After looking carefully, he was furious.

Those who speak without drafting the words and randomly seek trouble to impeach Yan Song are all court officials who have recently surrendered to Yan Song. Although the others have heard of the rumors and the things that have been reported, there is still a little basis.

Yan Song, the old fox, clearly ordered people to falsely slander themselves and confuse the Shengshen!

He could see the tricks in the order of the memorials. Yan Song deliberately misled Jiajing to put some absurd and unruly memorials, making Jiajing mistakenly think that all the memorials impeached were absurd and unruly things, and thus thought that he was making unreasonable trouble.

This Jiajing is so confused!

He didn't think about whether the court officials would impeach the chief minister of the cabinet for no reason?

Since everyone desperately impeached the chief minister of the cabinet, there is naturally a certain basis. But he didn't think about it, asked, and didn't even look at the memorials behind him, allowing Yan Song to lead the nose!
