Emperor Ming's grandson

Chapter 499 Playing Chess
For Zhu Wei and Zhu Yunxi, they felt that some people were causing trouble, and that was simply making trouble for them.

Who made them special, especially Zhu Wei, who is the clan order of the clan mansion.His responsibilities are not only to be in charge of the clan roster of the emperor's nine clans, to compile jade documents on time, to record the birth, death and marriage of the clan's children, but also to relay the clan's statement, record the clan's crimes and faults, etc. These are all his tasks.

Now the newly promoted King Qin and King Jin seem to be dissatisfied with the emperor, but according to Zhu Huan's understanding, his two nephews are just complaining at most, and the generous emperor will not care about these things of.

But some other people in the clan, even his second son, must have caused the emperor's dissatisfaction.

It is definitely right for people to go to high places, but if some people want to achieve their goals through some conspiracy and tricks, then they can't bear it.The most important thing is that those people's clumsy methods are easy to be seen through. Not to mention, a bad handling will always cause internal separation, and that is a big deal.

The Taishanghuang is still there, and the Taishanghuang doesn't want to see his brothers kill each other, and he doesn't want to see his descendants kill each other.

Knock, knock, this is a very necessary thing.The smarter thing to do at this time is to make an apology as soon as possible. Even if you don't come to make an apology, you should immediately die down. It might be regarded as a small punishment and a big commandment, and the matter will be over.

But if there are still some unrealistic thoughts, then the next step may be to face the wrath of thunder.Although it is true that the clan is a clan, it doesn't mean that the clan can run amok, it can really be confident, and it can violate the emperor's bottom line.

Some things are just a sign now, so Zhu Yunying just reminded her.If it can be resolved internally, that would be a great thing.

Although the affairs of the clan are very important, for Zhu Yunying, the most important thing now is obviously the affairs of the court.Especially in this troubled time, he obviously didn't have much energy to care about those incompetent little brothers.

These little brothers are not worried, it is only because of their special identities, sometimes it will make Zhu Yunying a little bit in a dilemma.

But this does not mean that these younger brothers have any power in their hands. In fact, Zhu Yunying can control the prosperity, wealth, life and death status of these clan children.

The matter of Zhang Wen, Marquis of Huining, has now become the focus of concern of many people in the court.No matter whether it is a noble or a civil servant, they all feel that the disposal of Zhang Wen is closely related to their interests.

Xungui's thoughts are very simple. The imperial court has not dealt with Xungui for several years.Especially when Zhu Yunying ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor, everyone felt that this was a stable and excessive power, so naturally there was no need to worry about foreign relatives interfering in politics, or arrogant soldiers ignoring the new emperor and other issues.

But now that Zhang Wen had to be dealt with, many people became nervous.Zhang Wen was arrogant and domineering, but the other nobles might not be easy to go there, and these people were not easy-going.

Wen Chen felt that this was an opportunity for their status to rise, and it was Lian Zining who first impeached Zhang Wen.This can even be regarded as the first time that the representative of Wen Chen officially made the once arrogant and domineering Wu Xun ashamed.

Even if Lian Zining is the head of the cheap state, his civil servant attributes are more obvious.

At the beginning of the founding of the People's Republic of China, the emphasis on civil affairs over military affairs should be further reversed.The rank improvement of the six ministers is not enough. After all, the current Ming Dynasty does not have a prime minister, and it is estimated that the future Ming Dynasty will not have a prime minister who 'restricts the imperial power'.

The weight of the six ministers is not enough, even if the rank of many civil servants has been improved a little, it is not enough.After all, the so-called "Yanshenggong" who is the head of the civil servants has lost his privilege of aloof and is just a family enshrining the Confucian Temple in Qufu.

To put it bluntly, the current Yan Shenggong is no different from some families who guard the imperial tombs and royal tombs.

Zhu Yunying sat on the dragon chair, he looked very calm, just listening to these civil and military officials arguing.

This situation is not a day or two, mainly because this matter has lasted for a long time.Since Zhang Wen was impeached, everyone has been arguing about how to deal with Zhang Wen, this is the key.

At this time, it is no longer some "small fish and small shrimps", and some heavyweight bosses have also left the stage one after another.

Ru Yu's expression was serious, holding the wat board in her hand, "Your Majesty, Marquis Zhang Wen of Huining and his sons invaded the land and beat the officials, ignoring the laws of the country."

Standing aside, Chang Mao frowned slightly, Hui Ninghou was still not good enough.Thinking that when his uncle was only a marquis, he also invaded and occupied people's fields, and even the censor who went to inquire about him dared to drive and beat him.

It can only be said that Zhang Wen is getting old and has lost Wu Xun's arrogance, or that Zhang Wen knows that he is not as important as Lan Yu.

Ru Yu continued, "The imperial court implements the policy of distributing gentry to the mu. This is state affairs. The Marquis of Huining enjoys the state's salary, and he doesn't think of being loyal to the emperor or showing consideration for the people."

"Ru Shangshu's words are exaggerated." Chang Mao didn't care about being polite, so he interrupted directly, "If you want to talk about occupying the people's land, it's over. Zhang Wen and his son are taking the people's land and hiding the property."

Chen Di was very angry, and went out to fight Chang Mao, "Mr. Kai Ping, Zhang Wen and his son seem to be reaping the land. It's just that the ordinary farmers are uneven, and the evil slaves in his house are beaten and harassed. They accept the price of the land from the people. It’s also much lower than the market price. What else is there to say about such a plunder?!”

Chang Mao took the attitude of fighting against the Confucian scholars, and said, "Hui Ninghou's move is indeed inappropriate. But we have heard that Huaiyuan county magistrate, county magistrate, and others are all open to convenience. If it weren't for those mediocre How can the Marquis of Huining receive so many acres?!"

Chang Mao's words made many civil servants feel rather depressed, because there are some scum among Wu Xun, but not all scholars are very noble.

Some of the magistrates below are also clinging to the nobles, and even colluding with others. There are some magistrates in Zhang Wen's case.

Chang Mao's meaning is actually very simple. He will definitely not protect Zhang Wen, but he also does not allow civil servants to say yes to this matter, and cannot rise to the height of the Xungui Group.

Even at this time, you can still consider dragging some civil servants into the water, everyone is like a sheep, don't treat Xungui as a moth of Ming Dynasty, if you really punish severely, then punish severely together, if you want to lose face, everyone will lose face together.

Ru Yu couldn't help but take a look at Chang Mao, he always felt that Chang Mao wasn't the only one thinking about this matter, maybe the one sitting on the dragon chair secretly instructed him.

Chang Mao is now indeed the leader of Beijing Zhongwu Xun, and it is quite normal for him to safeguard the interests of the Xungui Group.

It's just that a few days ago, Chang Mao basically pretended to be dead and didn't speak.Even if it is said that the big boss ends up fighting hand-to-hand, it seems normal for Chang Mao to end at this time, which seems understandable.

Think about Chang Mao's personality. This person is not usually like this, and this person usually doesn't think about these things.If it was Xu Huizu, Ru Yu could understand it, but if Chang Mao did this, it would be a bit hard to understand.

It must be the emperor's instruction. The emperor didn't like Xungui being too domineering, but he never wanted to see the rapid growth of Wenchen Group.What the emperor needs is a balance between nobles and civil servants, hoping that they will oppose each other in some matters.

Emperor Yingshi has always been a 'smiling tiger', Ru Xun knows this very well, and he is also aware of this person's methods.

At this time Feng Cheng also stood up and said, "Let's play Your Majesty, Hui Ning Hou broke the law, the court should severely punish him. I also hope that His Majesty will see how many achievements he made in his early years, and hope His Majesty will forgive him."

"No!" A censor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate immediately came out of duty, with a solemn expression, "Your Majesty, the country has its own laws. Marquis Huining made achievements in his early years, and the court awarded him a title. Punishment by the imperial court."

This time it can be regarded as provoking some debates. Regarding Zhang Wen's punishment method, many people are now having some debates. It seems that no matter how they do it, it is not good.

No one will deny that Zhang Wen has made contributions, which can be seen from his being able to become a marquis.

But now that he committed a crime, this is obvious to all, otherwise everyone would not be discussing it at this time.

Some people think that Zhang Wen is meritorious and old, so the court can warn him and so on.That is to say, treat veterans leniently, and don't be too strict in ransacking their families and exterminating their clans.It's just that some people feel that it is necessary to follow the court's law, and one yard should be returned to one yard.

Zhu Yunying, who was sitting on the dragon chair, still looked expressionless, and continued to watch these civil servants and generals arguing constantly.

This is actually quite good, Zhu Yunying thinks there is nothing wrong with it.What he needs to see is this scene, what he needs is to make some things bigger, and even put it on the line.

Only in this way can killing chickens and monkeys be effective, and the weight of a marquis is not small.

Now that a marquis was brought out, Zhu Yunying even had to bear the infamy of "killing heroes", which naturally meant that the infamy could not be borne in vain, and it must have sufficient effects.

Civil servants and military officials are arguing non-stop, which also has a certain effect.Zhu Yunying needs to wait a little longer, the current heat is not enough.

In the fierce quarrel, Feng Cheng said, "We are nobles, and we will always be kind to the country. Huining Hou Zhang Wen should punish severely, but those who are just with him, how can we be lightly punished?! We are nobles, who are bathed in blood on the battlefield. Humiliated by you and other bureaucrats! Your majesty, I request that this matter cannot be investigated by the three courts. Marquis Huining hides his people's land and household registration, and there are many connections with local officials, and the household department is also involved."

At this moment, Zhu Yunying seemed to have come to his senses, and said, "Mr. Ying is right, and this case should be thoroughly investigated."

Ru Yuan lowered her head and said nothing, he seemed to understand.The emperor deliberately made this matter a big deal, not only to investigate Zhang Wen, but also to clean up the administration of officials, to rectify the administration of officials, and to fully implement the rule of law.
