Chapter 654 What's Wrong with Being Bored? (Monthly Vote Requested!)

The next day, Sun Yong, the junior eunuch who usually sat in Huiji Gate, disappeared from the secret room, and was replaced by Chen Ju, the eunuch in charge of the Silijian.

In addition to temporarily taking over the secret room, Chen, who also had the power to investigate the case, asked his left and right: "Where is the person who mistakenly sent the secret memorial to the six departments?"

A long servant next to him replied: "This person committed suicide last night out of fear of crime."

Eunuch Chen was a little exaggerated and said angrily: "He dared to commit suicide before being tried. This is a crime of deceiving the emperor!"

At this time, the sky was bright and the palace gate was opened. People entered the inner court to work one after another, or submitted memorials to Huiji Gate.

Eunuch Chen temporarily focused on receiving memorials. Yesterday's big news broke, and today there will be more excitement.

Huang Zhengbin, the secretary of the cabinet, was the first to present the memorial, and expressed his impeachment and exposure of the prime minister Shen Shixing.

Looking at Huang Zhengbin, Eunuch Chen, who thought he had been fully prepared, was still surprised.

All kinds of monsters and demons are jumping out to show their presence. How dare a mere Zhongshu Sheren "rebel against Tiangang"?

You should know that although the Zhongshu Sheren of the Cabinet is nominally a seventh-rank official, in fact, his nature is only equivalent to a "clerk" serving the cabinet elders

More importantly, the Zhongshu Sheren of the Cabinet is not interoperable with the civil service system at all, and is not allowed to be promoted to other civil servants. This shows the low political status of the Zhongshu Sheren of the Cabinet.

Therefore, in the cognition of many people, the Zhongshu Sheren of the Cabinet is not regarded as a formal civil servant, but a miscellaneous stream.

If it were not for the Emperor Taizu Gao who allowed the military and civilians to write letters, I am afraid that the Zhongshu Sheren would not even have the right to submit a memorial to impeach the cabinet elders.

In the impression of Eunuch Chen, this may be the first time that a Zhongshu Sheren impeached the cabinet elders, which is also a new record in the Ming Dynasty.

I can only say that some scholars are really crazy in order to become famous.

However, after Huang Zhengbin, the situation became more normal, and some censors came to submit impeachment chapters.

Some impeached Shen Shixing, some impeached Wang Xijue, some impeached together, and some impeached Zhao Zhigao. As expected, the demons were dancing wildly.

Unlike Sun Yong, who was just a porter, Eunuch Chen was qualified to read the memorials.

But after reading the memorials of the censors, Eunuch Chen didn't know whether to say they were "stable" or "cowardly". Those who impeached were very restrained.

But it is understandable. It is estimated that these people were worried that their words would anger the emperor and be buried with Shen Shixing and others.

According to the emperor's instructions, Eunuch Chen sent all the impeachments today to the Ministry for discussion.

Among all the impeachments, Huang Zhengbin, the secretary of the Central Secretariat, finally became the most handsome guy, overshadowing all the censors.

There are two main reasons. One is Huang Sheren's identity. Even the knowledgeable Eunuch Chen was shocked, not to mention others.

Besides, the leak of the secret memorial cannot completely rule out the "mistake" of the cabinet secretary.

Huang Zhengbin was also a secretary of the Central Secretariat. How could he not think more when he jumped out at this time? Is there any connection between them?

The second is the content of the impeachment. Huang Sheren completely defeated a group of censors.

The impeachment of the censors mostly scolded Shen Shixing or Wang Xijue for being hypocritical, two-faced, flattering, etc., mostly clichés, nothing new.

Huang Sheren not only impeached, but also reported! His impeachment exposed many small inside stories, accusing Shen Shoufu of excluding and framing his colleagues in the cabinet, which are new things that outsiders rarely see!

So Huang Sheren became famous for a while and became the most well-known figure in the officialdom of the capital, especially warmly welcomed by the Qingliu Party.

Because they were afraid of bringing trouble to themselves or going too far, the Qingliu Party maintained relative restraint and won in a safe way, so as not to be dragged to be buried with Shen Shixing and Wang Xijue who were desperate.

But objectively, someone still needs to stand up and give Shen Shixing a heavy blow, and completely strip Shen Shixing of his face.

Huang Zhengbin's impeachment completed this task very well, which was equivalent to hammering the last nail into Shen Shixing's coffin.

The Qingliu forces have been fighting with the Prime Minister Shen Shixing for six or seven years, and now they finally see the dawn of victory with the will of heaven!

However, Huang Zhengbin's behavior angered the cabinet elder Zhao Zhigao. Now Zhao is no longer a scoundrel, but the temporary second in command of the cabinet.

Zhao directly dismissed Huang Zhengbin and removed him from the cabinet.

But Huang Zhengbin did not feel lonely at all. In a blink of an eye, he was invited by several censors to visit and communicate with the Metropolitan Procuratorate. He was honored as a "righteous man" and became very popular in the officialdom.

Then Zhao Zhigao was criticized by public opinion again, and was impeached to block the way of speech and exclude dissidents.

After that, Zhao Zhigao cursed Wang Jiaping again in Wenyuan Pavilion, accusing Wang Jiaping of colluding with Zhongshu Sheren to drive out the first and second assistants; now he launched an attack to drive out the four assistants, trying to monopolize power in the cabinet!

The current situation is turbulent, and all kinds of gossips are overwhelming.

But for Chen Tai, who is sitting in Huiji Gate, these days are very boring and boring.

Because apart from the emperor, he is the only one who knows the truth best. Now that the answer is known, what's the point of watching suspense dramas?

The wonderful gossip in the eyes of others is like a jumping clown in the eyes of Chen Tai, which is the superiority of holding the truth.

He is sitting in Huiji Gate, to put it bluntly, just pretending to represent the emperor to pretend to pay attention.

Pretending to be like that, so no matter how boring it is, you can't leave, you have to wait until the end.

Today, Eunuch Chen had two more braziers added. The weather is getting colder and colder, and it is really not warm here in the Huiji porch room. I just hope these boring days will end soon.

Suddenly, the attendant outside the door shouted: "There is an officer of the Royal Guards who urgently wants to see Grandpa! We must talk to him face to face!"

Eunuch Chen could guess that something happened outside the palace, so he let the officer of the Royal Guards in.

Then he heard the officer of the Royal Guards report in a hurry: "Today, a large poster appeared on the street outside the right gate of Chang'an!"

Eunuch Chen chuckled and said: "Aren't there such posters every day? Is it worth seeing me urgently?"

The officer of the Royal Guards immediately said: "But the poster said that the two secret letters of the Prime Minister and the Second Assistant were leaked, and it was the emperor's intention! It also listed several reasons!"

Fuck! Eunuch Chen, who was warming himself by the fire, was uneasy and almost fell into the brazier. He seemed to hear thunder in winter!

There were only three people who knew it clearly, and one of them had committed suicide!

So who the hell leaked the truth without any evidence?

How could this behavior of making something out of nothing be like Lin Tailai's style? But Lin Tailai is clearly in Suzhou, more than 2,000 miles away!

I just hate myself for being so cheap, complaining every day that my life is too boring, but now it is really not boring!

What's wrong with being bored? A plain life is a blessing!
