Chapter One Hundred and Twenty-Three Attacks

Qu Shixi thought that his advice would be unanimously supported in the cabinet, but he did not expect that none of them would support him.

The only Chen Zizhuang who supported him still wanted him to go to the thunder by himself.

"You, you... have disappointed Qu too much! Okay, then Qu will report it himself to prevent the future of all the masters from hindering their future!" Qu Shixiu said a sarcastic and sarcastic words and left angrily.

He wanted to curse "You treacherous officials", and he swallowed it back when he said that.

It’s not that he is afraid of offending others, but that he also knows that these people are really not treacherous officials.

However, everyone does not want to see Qian Qianyi be favored, does not want to see the authority of the cabinet be damaged, but they do not want to accuse the emperor of doing something wrong for this.

It’s okay for others to do it, Huang Zongxi advocates secretly dealing with Qian Qianyi, Chen Bangyan is simple-minded, anyway, what the emperor does is correct, and you don’t understand, because you just don’t have the wisdom of the emperor.

All these Qu Shizi could tolerate them, and the most annoying thing was Chen Zizhuang, who actually let himself rush up alone and let others watch.

Qu Shixi handed the memorial to the Tongzheng Department in anger, but the cabinet did not return it and went back to the Ministry of Personnel.

The next day at the "Dawn Meeting", everyone was worried about Qu Shisi, fearing that the emperor would cause him.

But the emperor was like not receiving the note, and his handling of government affairs was not affected at all.

Of course, I didn't mention that note.

"It seems that the emperor doesn't want to embarrass Qu Shisi and keep that memorable." Wu Bing thought to himself.

Dear Grand Secretary reported the affairs in their respective responsibilities. Just as the dawn meeting was about to end, the emperor asked Gu Yanwu to hand him a note.

"My dear friends, there is also a memorial in it, which is from our Grand Secretary Qu, and the content is to advise me to be close to the wise ministers and stay away from the villain." Zhu Youlang took the memorial and held it in his hand. Instead, he said, looking at Qu Shisi.

"Here, he's finally here." Wu Bing and others all looked at Qu Shizi.

"It is a way to be close to the wise ministers and stay away from the villain. Qu Aiqing's statement is also a cliché. Although it is a cliché, Qu Aiqing's loyalty to the emperor and the country is vividly displayed on paper. Look at the sentence "Now the enemy is invading the country, and all industries are waiting to be developed. Your Majesty should accept loyal advice, stay away from the villain and cheer up the court. Why do you trust the villain stay away from the virtuous ministers? This is the way to cause disaster." I was shocked and broke out in a cold sweat, as if if I did not accept his loyal advice, the Qing soldiers would appear on the city of Guangzhou tomorrow."

Speaking of this, Zhu Youlang closed the fold, raised his thumb, and said, "Loyal minister, Qu Aiqing knows the small things and prevents problems before they happen. He is really a loyal minister."

His sarcasm clearly expressed his dissatisfaction with Qu Shisi.

The cabinet ministers all raised their hearts.

Chen Jitai, Lin Cha, and Dai Rufeng were so scared that they lowered their heads and did not dare to face the emperor's gaze.

Chen Jitai thought to himself: "Qu Shisi, Qu Shisi, aren't you stupid? Why do you make the emperor unhappy?! When he started to attack, his father-in-law scolded him so hard that he was scolding him, let alone you? Come on, talk less, don't catch fire in the city gate, which will affect the fish in the pond."

When Qian Qianyi heard the content of the comment, he instantly understood that Qu Shisi's spearhead was targeting him. Naturally, he also understood that this was because he had gained the trust of the emperor recently and steadily suppressed the cabinet. Qu Shisi was jealous.

Looking at Wu Bing and the others, Qian Qianyi understood that on the surface, Qu Shixiu stood up alone, but in fact it was the intention of the entire cabinet.

"Okay, let's see how I refute you later, so that you can have a meal together." Qian Qianyi felt cruel in his heart.

The person involved, Qu Shishi, understood the dissatisfaction in the emperor's words, and couldn't help feeling sad: "Your Majesty, I have done it. You can point it out directly, why bother to mock me? Do you really don't know what I mean? Where did the wise and powerful emperor go? Why don't you distinguish between loyalty and treacherous?"

Thinking of this, Qu Shixiu made up his mind to be a straight minister, offending Yan Zhizhi's advice, and what loyal ministers should do.

"I have a few questions. I want to ask Mr. Qu. The wise ministers you mentioned are probably comparing themselves, so who is the villain?" Zhu Youlang continued.

"When you go back to Your Majesty, I dare not compare myself with my wise ministers, but I am not a villain either. What I said is a villain is not someone else, but Qian Qianyi!" Qu Shizi was so uncomfortable that he heard the emperor's question, he immediately rushed forward calmly.

When Qian Qianyi heard this, he became angry, his face turned red, and his eyes flashed with anger and looked at Qu Shisi, thinking: "How can you say that Qian is a villain? Qu Shisi, Qu Shisi, how did Qian offend you? He actually nominated and criticized him in person?"

"Okay, I am worthy of being a loyal minister and a straight minister! Then tell me, what words and deeds have violated your taboos? Do you say he is a villain?" Zhu Youlang said with a sneer.

"Return to your Majesty, Qian Qianyi was the palace tester in the 38th year of Wanli. He was an important official of the court and the leader of the Donglin Party. However, he later relied on Wei Lian and framed his accomplices. His character was evident. Later, the Qing soldiers entered the pass, and he did not want to sacrifice himself for justice. Instead, he surrendered to the Qing Dynasty to seek a high position, and his integrity was all lost. The division between gentlemen and villains lies in the choice between "righteousness" and "profit". Qian Qianyi was an official for decades and never took advantage of justice. Isn't that a villain's behavior?" Qu Shili said at the top.

Qu Shixi said it was so happy, and the ministers in the palace also heard it, but Qian Qianyi was scolded and embarrassed and annoyed. He wanted to refute it, but he did not allow the emperor to allow it and could not speak, so he could only stare at him in anger.

"Oh, you're turning over your old debt. Then I'll ask you again, what evil deeds will happen after you come to Guangzhou?" Zhu Youlang asked calmly.

"This..., after Qian Qianyi came to Guangzhou, his Majesty did not care about his old evil and allowed him to be an advisor. He should have changed his past mistakes and served the country loyally, but he forgot his identity as an advisor, repeatedly discussing national affairs and overwhelming his colleagues. It is obvious that he is willing to make profits." Qu Shixiu replied.

This reason Qu Shisi said is too far-fetched.

However, when the emperor asked this, he didn't dare to say that there was no such thing as he had to find a reason that was not a reason.

The reason is not a reason, it is because Qian Qianyi has the "spirit of profit" and is just a speculation and no evidence.

"Bang!"

After hearing Qu Shisi's words, Zhu Youlang's face changed drastically. He slapped the Long Shu desk with his hand and said angrily: "It's nonsense!"

"Qu Shisi, have you forgotten what I said when I came to Guangzhou? Punishing the past and preventing the future, curing the disease and saving people, this is my principle of employing people. Who can't get a disease? If you get sick, you will not be cured and sentence the patient to death? If you follow your theory, Li Chengdong, Li Dingguo, Shi Lang and other surrendered generals have all been guilty of all kinds before surrendering me. Do I still have to pursue them? For example, you, Qu Shisi, have you not made any mistakes? Why did I remove your chief assistant?"

Zhu Youlang's words made Qu Shisi speechless!
