Chapter 387 The Whole Court Was Shocked! Hu Weiyong Rebelled?
Chapter 387 The court was shocked! Hu Weiyong rebelled?
As if to confirm Ye Xuan's words, a few days later, something unexpected happened in the court.
On this day, at the court meeting.
Zhu Yuanzhang, as before, reviewed the memorial and approved it.
After the content of the approval was finished, the eunuchs around Zhu Yuanzhang hurried forward and asked the officials if there was anything missing or urgent government affairs that needed to be reported.
According to common sense, this moment is just a formality. If no one says anything, the court can be dismissed.
But just after the eunuch asked twice, someone suddenly stood up.
"My lord, Honglu Temple has been offering sacrifices to Taichang, and I have written a memorial for you!"
Honglu Temple belongs to the Ministry of Rites, so even if there is something urgent, it should be reported to the Ministry of Rites, and then the Ministry of Rites will report it.
But today, in front of hundreds of officials, Honglu Temple bypassed the Ministry of Rites and went directly to the memorial.
Everyone realized something unusual for a moment, but Zhu Yuanzhang, who was sitting on the dragon throne, had a sinking face and just waved his sleeves, not wanting Chen Si to speak.
Chen Si responded, held the memorial high, and then handed it over to the eunuch.
"I occasionally received news that envoys from the Champa Kingdom came to the DPRK, but no one received them. It has been nearly half a year!"
"According to the rules, when envoys from the state come to the DPRK, Honglu Temple will receive the documents after receiving the documents. But to this day, Honglu Temple has never received anything, and it is not known that any envoys have come.
"This matter is so unbelievable that I am so frightened that I have no choice but to ask for a report in front of the emperor to put things in perspective!"
After listening to Chen Si's words, Zhu Yuanzhang habitually wanted to slap the table, but when he reached halfway, he realized that today he was outside Fengtian Hall and there was no table prepared.
So he angrily changed from slapping the table to pointing at everyone.
"How come we have never heard of the envoy's visit to the DPRK? The Ministry of Education of the People's Republic of China is not going to give us an explanation?"
When it comes to this, it couldn’t be more obvious.
Hu Weiyong hurriedly came out of the queue and explained to Zhu Yuanzhang.
"Your Majesty, the Ministry of Rites must report the affairs of envoys from various countries, so that I can know about it, but I have not received any report, so I really don't know about it~"!
In one sentence, the responsibility was shifted to the Ministry of Rites. Ren Ang was shocked and hurriedly came out to explain.
"Your Majesty, I have never heard of this matter. Moreover, when envoys from various countries come to our territory in the Ming Dynasty, they will report it to the central government through the Yamen of the state government level by level. Why do we need the Ministry of Rites to inform us first!"
"Besides, without the inspection of the Ministry of Education, we cannot easily receive outsiders. Otherwise, if someone pretends to be someone, where will my dignity be?"
This sentence is also true, but at this moment, it somewhat means to put the blame on each other.
Zhu Yuanzhang snorted coldly and asked the two of them: "You mean, this matter has nothing to do with you? Is it possible that the envoy who captured the city is a fool and a lunatic, and he still hasn't contacted me after being here for half a year?"
This sentence left the two of them speechless, and the hundreds of officials in the court were trembling secretly, fearing that Zhu Yuanzhang would kill someone again because of this.
What no one knows is that although Chen Si is an official, he is actually a spy of Jin Yiwei.
What happened this time was that a eunuch went out to do some shopping and saw several foreigners pawning their belongings.
Seeing that several people came from foreign lands and were quite poor, but the items in their hands turned out to be very exquisite, the eunuch couldn't help but become suspicious.
So after interrogation, the eunuch learned that the other party was an envoy to occupy the city. Because he was not received by the Ming Dynasty and did not dare to return home, he ended up here.
The eunuch was also kind-hearted and placed the person directly in the inn, and then reported the matter to Zhu Yuanzhang.
It's just that Zhu Yuanzhang interfered with the rule that middle-ranking officials were not allowed to interfere in politics, so he couldn't let this person come forward to correct him, so he could only order Mao Xiang and arranged for officials from the DPRK and middle-level officials to stage this play.
To put it mildly, Zhu Yuanzhang already knew clearly what the first meal the envoy ate after arriving in Ming Dynasty and when he first pooped. He also knew what the filth here was. How could you not know?
Before, he thought that he had just killed Wang Guangyang and it was not good for him to go to jail again. If the other party explained the reason and admitted his fault, the matter would be minimized.
But now it seems that Zhu Yuanzhang has begun to regret his previous decision.
Seeing that Zhu Yuanzhang was angry, Hu Weiyong rolled his eyes and took it into consideration.
He kowtowed to Zhu Yuanzhang, and then explained: "Your Majesty, Wang Guangyang may be handling this matter, so I don't know about it!"
This sentence completely angered Zhu Yuanzhang. Zhu Yuanzhang stood up angrily, and when he spoke again, he was already furious.
"Placing the responsibility on a dead man! Do you really think we are fools?"
Zhu Yuanzhang's tone was already trembling, indicating that he was extremely angry.
Hu Weiyong was frightened, but he still gave up and still wanted to argue.
But before he could say anything else, Zhu Yuanzhang had already made a decision.
"Since you can't explain this clearly, then go to jail and think it over for us. When you figure it out, you can tell me again!"
Hearing Zhu Yuanzhang's words, Hu Weiyong couldn't help but be startled.
But before he could react, Zhu Yuanzhang had already issued an order to King Wei.
"."All relevant officials from the Ministry of Education and the Ministry of Rites will be thrown into prison. Without our orders, they are not allowed to visit or have any contact with each other!"
Upon hearing this, the guard hurriedly stepped forward, dragging the opponent directly and pulling him out regardless of his rank.
When the other officials saw this, they all remained silent, knowing that Zhu Yuanzhang had murderous intentions.
Ren Ang was in charge of the Ministry of Rites, but he was not the person in charge of this matter, so he was spared this time.
As long as Hu Weiyong, because of his special status and Zhu Yuanzhang did not name him to be imprisoned, he could stay out of the matter this time.
However, even if he was spared from prison, Hu Weiyong's face was still extremely ugly at this moment.
When the dynasty dispersed, everyone deliberately kept a distance from him, which made Hu Weiyong realize that what he was most worried about was about to happen.
In the next few days, it seemed that everyone was deliberately avoiding Hu Weiyong. Everyone had a tacit understanding in their hearts that Hu Weiyong was going to collapse.
In the past few days, Tu Jie has been thinking about whether he should betray Hu Weiyong to seek self-protection, or whether he should put his chips on Hu Weiyong and make a big gamble.
This day is another conference.
After Zhu Yuanzhang finished talking about the government affairs of the court, he made clear his purpose and killed more than a dozen officials in succession.
These people are all members of Hu Weiyong's party. Although the charges have nothing to do with Hu Weiyong, this is undoubtedly a signal.
Familiar names were read out one by one, as if every word struck Tu Jie's heart.
He took a breath and stood up quickly while the eunuch asked who had anything else to ask.
"My lord, Cheng Tujie, the imperial censor, wants to revive His Majesty Qin!"
Zhu Yuanzhang's face darkened when he saw Tu Jie, but he still motioned for him to continue.
At this moment, Hu Weiyong had realized something was wrong.
But no matter how keen his perception is, he can no longer stop Tu Jie.
"Chen Tujie participated in the performance of Left Prime Minister Hu Weiyong, intending to rebel!"
