The Ming Dynasty started with caution

Take the initiative to ask for retirement. With your majesty's generous character, even if you find out, you won't bring it up again.

Wu Shun was a little unwilling, he was in his prime.

Judging from the current promotion momentum, it would not be difficult to be promoted to the cabinet.

"This is a premeditated plan. The official in the Ministry of Personnel just said that Yan Chengjin went to the Ministry of Personnel two days ago to transfer the official's assessment files."

He has been the right assistant minister in the Ministry of Personnel for more than half a year.

I don't know what means Yan Chengjin used to convince the civil servants guarding the files.

The Censorate, duty room.

Yan Chengjin planned on paper. The administration of the Censorate was too simple, only writing impeachment.

As a result, although the Censorate supervised all officials, it did not really exercise its functions.

At the end of the Ming Dynasty, ministers used various means to make money. Chongzhen asked ministers to borrow money to resist Li Zicheng. The ministers were rich, but they didn't give a penny.

The incompetence of the Censorate was also an important factor leading to the decline of the Ming Dynasty.

Although Jiajing, Wanli and Chongzhen had their own flaws, they all had the heart to govern the country and were not as tyrannical as Emperor Yang of Sui.

Among the sixteen emperors of the Ming Dynasty, the first eight were more incompetent than the last eight.

There were emperors such as Yingzong and Xianzong who were controlled by eunuchs.

The last eight were generally wise, but despite this, the Ming Dynasty still went into decline.

The reason is largely due to the lack of a god teammate like Zhu Yuanzhang or Zhu Di.

He was still a small censor before and did not dare to think too much, but now he is a deputy censor.

Yan Chengjin wants to set up four offices in the Censorate like the six ministries, each of which holds power.

Fill the official positions from the seventh to the fourth rank.

This is a huge plan.

With his weak official position, I don’t know when he can do it.

Many people need to be recruited, and the Censorate will be different.

"Sir, why did Lord Wu take leave after the welcome ceremony?" Jiang Wen asked in surprise.

Xu Tianxi and Zhang Jiyu stood aside. Lord Wu might have been angry and sick.

Like their experience, they had a bright future, but everything changed after meeting Lord Yan.

"Xu Tian and Zhang Yu, who can't even remember the source of the law, are punished to copy the Ming Dynasty law a hundred times."

Yan Chengjin thought it was too cumbersome to call Xu Tianxi and Zhang Jiyu by their names.

He simply gave them characters and called them Xu Tian and Zhang Yu.

"Your subordinate obeys your order!"

Jiang Wen looked flustered. He was the only one who didn't have to write a memorial. He felt that he was despised by Yan Chengjin.

Although he was used to being despised.

But Brother Xu and Brother Zhang were in trouble, and he came to the Censorate with great difficulty.

How dare he not work hard?

"I want to copy it a hundred times, too!"

Yan Chengjin was a little surprised, and nodded approvingly: "I was just about to ask you to copy it a hundred times, and you petitioned again, so I'll copy it two hundred times."

Jiang Wen's face turned the color of liver.

Wu Shun entered the Censorate as the Deputy Chief Censor, and it was inevitable that His Majesty would have a crush on him and appointed him as the Chief Censor.

These two days, Yan Chengjin was waiting for the court's investigation news.

It is said that Wu Shun was so angry that he went to Huimin Pharmacy to get medicine, and also bought a set of aphrodisiacs to relieve his anger.

It is not easy for Jinyiwei to investigate the case two years ago.

At this time, Wu's mansion.

Wu Shun had just returned from Huimin Pharmacy and saw Jinyiwei searching the mansion.

He stumbled into the mansion. His Majesty sent Jinyiwei, which means that he does not trust him.

The housekeeper of Wu's mansion cried and saw Wu Shun coming back, as if he had found his backbone.

"Master, the house is going to be confiscated."

Wu Shun kicked him angrily: "Nonsense! I'll kick you to death."

"Lord Mou, what is this?"

Mou Bin said calmly: "Lord Wu, don't worry, I just want to ask if anyone in your house has seen this pearl?"

This pearl was naturally given by Yan Chengjin.

...

Eastern Palace,

Zhu Houzhao looked at Yan Chengjin happily: "Lao Gao, I also want to hold a welcome ceremony for the new lecturer in the Zhanshi Mansion."

"Your Highness, don't make trouble, I'm doing serious business."

"You still want to fool me, Lecturer Wu is about to be forced away by you."

At this moment, the little eunuch walked in in a panic: "Your Highness, I just found out that Lord Wu is in poor health and is going to retire."

Yan Chengjin's eyes moved slightly, this is the most correct choice.

Although the case two years ago is difficult to investigate, everything will be revealed when Jiao Fang comes back.

Wu Shun's voluntary retirement can stop the Jinyiwei from continuing to investigate.

In fact, even if he did not impeach Wu Shun, he would be exiled by Emperor Hongzhi for bribery next year.

To some extent, he saved Wu Shun's life.

Zhu Houzhao blinked his eyes: "I have made up my mind to hold a welcoming ceremony in the Zhanshi Mansion!"

Yan Chengjin ignored him. Zhu Houzhao's decision was not something his father could control, let alone him.

When he returned to the duty room of the Censorate, the yamen runners had removed Wu Shun's desk.

Zheng Qian came back to report that His Majesty agreed.

Before drafting the memorial, Emperor Hongzhi asked Mou Bin: "Did Wu Shun really bribe Jiao Fang?"

Mou Bin hesitated and said: "I am afraid that under the coercion of the minister, the accountant of the Wu Mansion secretly said that he had seen this big pearl."

Yan Chengjin hit the mark again.

Emperor Hongzhi became melancholy, not knowing whether to be happy or sad.

Wu Shun bribed Jiao Fang to get the upper position, which means that he is not capable enough to be the Minister of Personnel. How many such officials are there in the court?

"Forget it, let him retire."

The Tongzhengsi also issued a report.

For a time, all officials in the capital knew that Yan Chengjin had impeached another third-rank official.

Zhang Mansion,

Zhang Sheng read the court report and threw it aside with anger.

My son went to the southern forest. If he gets malaria, I will impeach Yan Chengjin.

Xue cried beside him: "You are the Minister of Rites, but you don't know how to dissuade His Majesty. If Xi'er doesn't come back, I will pack my bags and go back to my mother's home!"

"You dare!"

Zhang Sheng shouted, and was furious. The wife of the Minister of Rites ran away. If this gets out, she will definitely be ridiculed by the old guys in the court.

At the age of seventy or eighty, he really can't afford to lose this person.

He has a deep relationship with Xue and doesn't want to separate.

Since Zhang Yuanxi went to the south, he cried all day in the mansion, and he was a little irritable.

Zhang Sheng relaxed his expression and hugged him: "It's been almost a month. The news should be sent back. I will go to the palace to ask."

Every day after the shift, he has to go back.

At this time, on Qipan Street, a red horse galloped, startling the passers-by on both sides to avoid it.

The spy drove all the way to Wumen, divided the news into three parts, and handed them to the guards.

"This is an urgent report from the Ministry of War."

"This is an urgent report from the Censorate."

"This is an urgent report from the Jinyiwei."

It was impossible to separate the three urgent reports when they were sent to the capital in an 800-mile rush.

The urgent report from the Censorate was sent back by Hu Dalong.

Yan Chengjin was a little nervous when he received the urgent report, wondering if malaria could be cured.

If not, it means that the ancient book was wrong and he had to look for it again.

Hu Dalong, Zhang Yuanxi and others were going to die in the dense forests in the south.

Zheng Qian opened the urgent report, cleared his throat and asked: "Sir, did the subordinate read it?"

"Read it."

"Student Hu Dalong, fortunately fulfilled his mission. After the soldiers took the Qingwan, the burning sensation in their limbs subsided..."

Malaria was not conquered until later generations. Over the past few hundred years, it has killed countless people.

And now, it has been conquered five hundred years earlier.

Malaria in the West is more serious than in the East. If it spreads to the West, how much money can be earned?

More importantly, if the problem of His Majesty is solved, he may be promoted.

Yan Chengjin took the urgent report and strode to Fengtian Hall.

I dealt with some things today, so the update is a little late. Sorry, it will be earlier tomorrow. Finally, it is the end of the month again. Please vote
