Rise From the Humble

Shi Pengfei is the third-rank right minister of the Ministry of War, which is equivalent to the current Deputy Minister of Defense. He is the official with the highest punished position. The ranks of generals are not comparable. Even generals with a higher rank than Shi Pengfei are also younger brothers to Shi Pengfei. .

Cutting one's position to serve the people, confiscating one's family property, and never using such a punishment are not too severe.

Shi Pengfei should be the ceiling of this punishment, and the responsibility ends here, everyone thought.

However, just as this thought came to mind, I heard Chen Hong continue to read out the imperial edict "Ying Tian's Minister of War, Zhang Jing."

When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but gasp in shock, their mouths opened wide, and their eyes bulged out.

It turned out to be Zhang Jing, the Minister of War in Yingtian. Zhang Jing, this was the number one person among everyone present!

The Holy Spirit's intensity in pursuing accountability is so great! This is really unlimited!

Everyone was completely shocked.

"Zhang Jing, the Minister of the Ministry of War of Yingtian, is in charge of the Ministry of War of Yingtian. He is responsible for the military affairs of Yingtian, Nanzhili and Southeast, as well as the guarding of Yingtian. He is responsible for the punishment and inspection of Zhejiang, and reports to Shangyu about Japanese pirates invading Yingtian. He failed to be alert enough and arranged for Shi Pengfei, the right minister of the Ministry of War, to study and deploy the response, but failed to supervise and review. He is responsible for poor leadership and lax command; a mere fifty-seven Japanese pirate soldiers surrounded Yingtian and failed to send troops in time. Chao Japanese has brought shame to the imperial court and has betrayed the emperor's favor; he will be fined three years' salary and immediately dismissed from the post of Minister of the Ministry of War in Yingtian."

Chen Hong read out the imperial edict in a slow and unhurried manner, his voice was not loud, and his timbre was also the eunuch's unique drake voice.

But for everyone present, it was like a huge thunder exploding in their ears!

Everyone felt as if they were struck by five thunders. They were so shocked that they couldn't believe their ears.

Zhang Jing was actually fired! The post of Minister of the Ministry of War was dismissed! ! !

In fact, there is basically no difference between dismissal and downsizing. They are both demoted. The only difference is that dismissal only temporarily retains the qualification of "official", which is just the last breath of political life.

How could everyone not be shocked!

"The guilty minister Zhang Jing received the order to express his gratitude. Long live my emperor." Zhang Jing knelt down lonely to receive the order.

Oh, I'm dismissed

How many days and nights were devoted to studying the terrain of the mountains and rivers south of the Yangtze River; how many days and nights were devoted to studying the distribution of soldiers and horses in various garrison posts in the south of the Yangtze River; how many days and nights were devoted to studying the strength of the Japanese pirate camp: how many days and nights were devoted to raising food, grass and military pay: how many days and nights were devoted to raising food and military pay: how many days and nights were devoted to Studying strategies such as deploying wolf soldiers; how many days and nights, working hard to study how to complete the task in one battle and annihilate the Japanese pirates; how many days and nights.

Okay, I can finally have a good sleep tonight

"No need to bother you, I'll do it myself."

After receiving the order, Zhang Jing waved to the factory guard who came over. Without using the factory guard to do anything, he took off his bird gauze hat, took off his official uniform, folded it, put it on the ground, and walked towards the outside of the palace with his back lonely.

At this moment, everyone felt a little sad, a little pity, and of course some people were gloating about the misfortune.

The only exception is Zhu Pingan.

Zhu Ping'an didn't have the above emotions, he could only congratulate.

Zhu Ping'an knew that Zhang Jing would soon be appointed governor of Jiangnan, specializing in suppressing Japanese invaders. Being dismissed from the Ministry of War at this moment happened to be the prelude to being appointed governor of Jiangnan. Historically, the imperial court ordered Zhang Jing to be relieved of his post and appointed governor-general. He was responsible for the military affairs of the provinces south of the Yangtze River, doing things expediently and specializing in suppressing Japanese invaders.

Therefore, Zhang Jing will soon take office as governor-general, which is naturally worthy of congratulations.

After Zhang Jing walked out of the hall, the pressure came to He Sui, the eunuch guarding Yingtian. He, Zhang Jing, and Wei Guogong were the three giants of Yingtian. If the Duke of Wei has made meritorious service, people don't have to worry about punishment. On the contrary, they will be rewarded.

He is comparable to Zhang Jing.

At this moment, when Eunuch He saw that Zhang Jing had been dismissed, he remembered that this bitch Chen Hong had just gloated that he would have another bad luck. He suddenly became nervous, his toes clenched, and his calves couldn't help but tremble. Shivering.

Zhu Ping'an noticed Eunuch He, and couldn't help but twitching his lips, Eunuch He, you are a master, can you have some master's demeanor? When the Zhenwu Camp mutiny happened, Huang Maoguan, the governor of the Ministry of Revenue, was chopped to pieces by the insurrectionary soldiers, but how could you Master, you, a master who ran out unscathed from the chaos, must be too timid. Oh, yes, when the Zhenwu Camp mutinied, it was because Eunuch He was timid.

However, you don't need to be so nervous. Although you and Zhang Jing and Zhang Shangshu are both Yingtian's three giants, you have different positions and different responsibilities, and the responsibilities you need to bear are still very different.

Zhang Jing was the Minister of the Ministry of War, and his scope of responsibilities covered not only Yingtian, but also the entire Jiangnan. From the time the Japanese pirates landed in Shangyu to the time they attacked and harassed Yingtian, their crimes of causing robberies for thousands of miles were all within the scope of Zhang Jing's responsibilities.

As for you, Eunuch He, as the eunuch guarding Yingtian, your scope of responsibilities is only to guard Liu Yingtian.

The crimes committed by the Japanese pirates between Shangyu and Yingtian have nothing to do with you. If Yingtian is fine, you have fulfilled your most basic duties. At most, when the Japanese pirates harassed Yingtian, you failed to send troops to exterminate them in time, which caused the court to lose face. This kind of fault is not serious, so you don't have to worry so much.

Eunuch He was too timid and easily panicked when encountering problems. He was not a person who wanted to do big things. Perhaps this was the reason why he never reached the peak of eunuch power like Lu Fang, Huang Jin, and Feng Bao.

Zhu Pingan thought so.

When Eunuch He was nervous and apprehensive, Chen Hong cast his gaze on him, with a sneer on his lips.

When Eunuch He saw Chen Hong looking at him, he immediately realized that it was his turn, so he became even more nervous and could hardly stand.

Finally, while Eunuch He was trembling nervously, Chen Hong continued to read out the imperial edict, "He Sui, the eunuch guarding Yingtian."

Sure enough, it's my turn!

When Eunuch He heard Chen Hong read his name, his nervousness reached its peak.

Chen Hong also deliberately slowed down his speech when he read out the imperial edict about Eunuch He, and spoke word by word, as if he deliberately cut the flesh with a blunt knife during execution, torturing Eunuch He with words, "He Sui, the eunuch of Yingtian Guards, is here." The eunuch guarding Yingyao was responsible for guarding Yingtian. Only fifty-seven Japanese pirates surrounded Yingtian. He failed to coordinate in time to send troops to suppress the Japanese, which embarrassed the court. Nian was fine in Yingtian, and the Japanese pirates were wiped out that night. Especially A lighter sentence, a one-year fine, and a demerit will be given to see the consequences."

Eunuch He's spirit was like a roller coaster, with ups and downs. Chen Hong read out the first half of the imperial edict. When it was about his fault, Chen Hong deliberately read it very slowly, which made Eunuch He's spirit seem to be delayed. Like a The century was so long. When he heard the result of the punishment later, Eunuch He felt that he had narrowly escaped death, was extremely sad and happy, and felt that a dead tree had turned into spring. He was lucky and surprised.

A year's salary and one demerit. The result of this punishment was many times better than he imagined.

Chen Hong, this damn bitch, deliberately played tricks on me!
