The Ming Dynasty started with caution

Chapter 513 Countermeasures

After Wu Shun received the imperial edict, he could not calm down for a long time.

Anyone who goes to the Metropolitan Procuratorate will be unlucky as long as his official position is higher than Yan Chengjin's.

Just like his predecessor Wu Kuan, also surnamed Wu, he was also transferred from the Ministry of Personnel to the Metropolitan Procuratorate. Now he is in ruins and is serving at home.

"Master, we bribed Jiao Fang. If you go to the Procuratorate again, what if Yan Chengjin finds out..."

The housekeeper often made suggestions for him, which was why Wu Shun was promoted so quickly.

Wu Shun took off the ring on his thumb and said with deep thoughts: "You are right, but His Majesty has issued an imperial edict. I can only resist the edict if I become an official."

There are two ways to resist the imperial edict: Ding You and Zhishi.

Needless to say, Ding You's parents are still alive.

He was reluctant to become an official, and it was not easy for him to reach the official rank of the third rank in the imperial court.

It’s human nature to want to be promoted. Who hasn’t given something as a gift?

Thinking of this, Wu Shun said to the housekeeper: "Jiao Fang has been exiled overseas. The Metropolitan Procuratorate is short of a Metropolitan Censor. I will take office in three days."

At this moment, the duty of the Metropolitan Procuratorate came.

Jiang Wen asked with a look of embarrassment on his face: "Sir Yan, wouldn't it be bad if you asked the three of us to impeach Mr. Wu just after he took office?"

"This is the welcome ceremony of the Metropolitan Procuratorate." Yan Chengjin's expression remained as usual.

Xu Tianxi and Zhang Jiyu had strange expressions on their faces. The ceremony to congratulate them on their promotion usually involves setting up a banquet to congratulate the host on their promotion.

Where is there any impeachment celebration?

Yan Chengjin is serious.

Except for him, every official admitted to the hospital needs to be as clean as water and able to withstand impeachment to be a good censor.

As far as he knew, Wu Shuneng had repeatedly received top ratings in the three-year plan and the six-year review.

It was because he bribed Jiao Fang.

Naturally, such a person cannot be allowed to join the Metropolitan Procuratorate and corrupt the atmosphere that has been established through hard work.

Yan Chengjin brought a pile of documents home.

early morning,

Yan Chengjin came to check the room,

Wu Shun was directing the clerks and setting up the desks. When he saw him coming, he smiled and said, "Sir Yan, from today on, you and I are colleagues."

You should be the colleague with the shortest tenure.

Yan Chengjin bowed slightly and said: "The new rules of the Metropolitan Procuratorate are that officials who join the new court must be impeached by all colleagues in the court once to show their welcome. If your Majesty announces it, I hope Master Wu will not be surprised."

Boom~

Wu Shun was so frightened that he could not sit still and fell to the ground together with the chair.

The official hat wheel rolled to Yan Chengjin's feet.

He said angrily: "Who set the rules?! How can you welcome people in this way?"

"This is the Metropolitan Procuratorate, so naturally we must follow the rules of the Metropolitan Procuratorate." Yan Chengjin said seriously: "To express my enthusiasm for Mr. Wu, I also wrote a letter."

As soon as Wu Shun got up, he fell to the ground again.

The officials wrote Yan Chengjin's signature and called it the King of Hell's invitation.

Either beheaded or exiled, there is no good end. Life is really hard. I thought I could compete for a second-grade official by coming to the Metropolitan Procuratorate.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he came to the Metropolitan Procuratorate, he would be impeached by the entire court.

Yan Chengjin saw Wu Shun beating his chest and feet, gasping for air, as if he wanted to beat someone. Although he was exercising day and night, learning self-defense and wrestling techniques.

But he was afraid that Wu Shun, who was proficient in the six arts, would be better than him, so he withdrew from the check-in room.

"Sir, where is this inkstone?"

"Let me go! Get out of here, I want to be alone."

Fengtian Temple,

Emperor Hongzhi opened two bullets one after another, both of which were impeaching Wu Shun, and felt a little strange.

"I just transferred Wu Shun to the Metropolitan Procuratorate yesterday. Why are there so many censor bullets today?"

Xiao Jing said: "Reporting to your majesty, this is the welcome ceremony set by Yan Chengjin. In the future, all officials who join the Metropolitan Procuratorate will be impeached by all the censors."

Emperor Hongzhi's face collapsed and he was as stiff as a mask.

Liu Jian said angrily: "This is not bullying colleagues, Your Majesty, this trend cannot last forever. No one was willing to go to the Metropolitan Procuratorate in the first place. After Yan Chengjin made such a fuss, no one was willing to go. How will the ministers recommend him in the future?" "

Who says it isn't?

Why do officials from the Metropolitan Procuratorate frequently leave their posts? Isn’t it because of Yan Chengjin?

Li Dongyang and others were in trouble, so they recommended people to go to the Metropolitan Procuratorate, which offended people.

"What Mr. Liu said is true. If you encourage this trend, it will definitely make people shirk the blame and be unwilling to go to the Metropolitan Procuratorate."

Emperor Hongzhi also felt angry: "Summon Yan Chengjin!"

Only when superiors treat colleagues and subordinates in a friendly manner can they demonstrate their ability to control.

Yan Chengjin is still too young and does not understand the ways of being an official. If he treats his colleagues like this, won't it cause division in the Metropolitan Procuratorate?

Emperor Hongzhi decided to teach him how to manage.

Soon, Yan Chengjin came to the main hall: "Your Majesty, Yan Chengjin, has met you. May your Majesty be blessed with peace and happiness."

Emperor Hongzhi's originally frowning face softened slightly and became kind-hearted.

He said that this child was not much older than Hou Zhao, and he was still a child in his eyes.

"I heard that you held a welcome ceremony and all the censors impeached Wu Shun?"

"Reporting to Your Majesty, the ceremony has been completed. Your Majesty should have seen the bullet." Yan Chengjin bowed slightly.

"Nonsense."

"The bullets are public property for picketing officials, how can they be used for such childish play?"

Li Dongyang and Xie Qian denounced each other one after another.

As an internal minister, I have the obligation to correct Yan Chengjin, even though they don't like this kid very much.

Yan Chengjin did not want to impeach Wu Shun, but he impeached Jiao Fang, Wu Kuan and others one after another.

The appointment of the imperial court changed.

Wu Shun had no chance to take the position of assistant minister, but there was a vacancy in the Ministry of Personnel, which allowed him to be promoted.

In the final analysis, it was his relationship.

Yan Chengjin thought for a moment, took out a memorial from his sleeve, and said: "It's not nonsense. During the welcoming process, I found evidence of Lord Wu's guilt.

Jinyiwei can continue to investigate along the clues."

Emperor Hongzhi lowered his head slightly and found a book of impeachment at the bottom.

It was Yan Chengjin who presented it, and his face became a little more serious.

Li Dongyang looked at Yan Chengjin: "You have never had any contact with Wu Shun, how can you investigate so clearly?"

Xiao Jing and Mou Bin looked at him at the same time. They also wanted to know this question.

Yan Chengjin said that it was probably true that a person had shit on his body.

"Your subordinate is lucky." Yan Chengjin said vaguely.

After reading the impeachment, Emperor Hongzhi said that when Jiao Fang was the right assistant minister of the Ministry of Personnel, Wu Shun gave him a large black pearl.

But Jiao Fang went to Mangala, and no one could verify it.

"A thorough investigation of the third-rank officials cannot be done rashly. Do you have any evidence?" asked Emperor Hongzhi.

Yan Chengjin thought for a moment and said, "The only way is to call Jiao Fang back to the capital."

Of course there is physical evidence. When Jiao Fang searched his house, he found a huge black pearl and threw it into the fish pond in his mansion.

But it cannot prove that it was used by Wu Shun to bribe Jiao Fang.

Emperor Hongzhi frowned slightly: "It will take a year for me to call Jiao Fang back. Is there any other evidence?"

Yan Chengjin said: "All the major plans before Wu Shun were evaluated by Jiao Fang, and they were all top-level evaluations. The accountant of Jiao's mansion is also in the capital."

Emperor Hongzhi did not pay attention to it, and ordered Xiao Jing to bring the family files of the Ministry of Personnel.

Sure enough, the people who checked the evaluation were all Jiao Fang.

Wu Mansion,

Wu Shun had no intention of going to court, sitting in the mansion waiting for the news of Emperor Hongzhi. It was too abominable to impeach all the staff.

"Master, just retire directly!" The housekeeper said worriedly.
