Carrying AK into Ming Dynasty

Chapter 689 Kill the chicken to warn the monkey

"You are ordered to arrest someone, do you have an imperial edict?" Shi Bangzhao asked in a state of confusion.

The courtiers were sure that the little emperor would not dare to suppress them like this when he came to the throne, so they dared to confront the emperor so recklessly.

We must know that one of the most important ministers in the court counts as one, and almost all of them oppose the reform of the imperial examination system, but now this young emperor is going to be serious. Isn't the Holy One worried that there will be no one available in the court?

Countless thoughts flashed through Shi Bangzhao's mind, and finally he fixed his eyes on Liu Hongjian.

That's right, the Holy Majesty must not have such courage, it must be the Anguo County King in front of him who is leading the matter.

"The emperor sent an oral order." Liu Hongjian said casually.

Oral orders are nonsense in later generations, but in these years, oral orders are like the emperor's presence in person. Even if the oral orders are read out, the courtiers still have to kneel down and act in accordance with the contents of the oral orders without compromise.

This is imperial power.

"I don't believe it. I didn't make any mistakes. Why did the emperor arrest me?" Shi Bangzhao was in a hurry. This oral order is no different from Zhongzhi or imperial decree. Who knows whether the emperor said it or not?
Just being caught in such an unclear manner, no one responded to my crying.

"I'm going to confront the emperor face to face!" Shi Bangzhao roared.

"This king said that the emperor doesn't want to add you, if you say that you are guilty, does it count as dereliction of duty?

As officials of the imperial court, receiving the emperor's favor and salary, you don't want to share the emperor's worries, let alone talk about it, and deliberately neglect government affairs. It's really unreasonable. Take it away! "Liu Hongjian replied.

With a wave of his hand after speaking, Jin Yiwei dragged the silent Shi Bangzhao out of the room.

Outside the house, the big and small officials of the Inspectorate were all pressed in the yard, all of them were full of grief and indignation, and when they saw Liu Hongjian coming out, they all uttered vicious words, wishing to have Liu Hongjian's cramps peeled off, his bones smashed into ashes.

"What's your name? What official position do you hold in the Inspector's Office?" Liu Hongjian said to Liu Yongpeng who was the only one standing in the yard.

"My lord, my subordinate Liu Yongpeng will serve as the censor of Youqian Capital of the Inspectorate." Liu Yongpeng bowed and cupped his hands.

Although he wasn't too impressed with Jin Yiwei's behavior, he had to say that Liu Yongpeng felt very at ease now. In his opinion, Shi Bangzhao and Meng Zhen deserved the retribution for what they did.

"From now on, you will be in charge of the government affairs of the Inspector's Office temporarily. If you have any unresolved matters, you can go to Wenyuan Pavilion to ask the cabinet's second assistant, Han Yu!" Liu Hongjian said to Liu Yongpeng.

"My lord, I'm just a censor of the capital of the fourth rank, how can I have the qualification to be in charge of the Inspectorate alone, I think Meng Zhen, the censor of the right capital, can act on my behalf..." Liu Yongpeng said in shock.

"Meng Zhen has been arrested by this king." Liu Hongjian said with a raised mouth.

When he took someone to Meng Zhen's mansion, this guy was hugging his concubine and nestling under the blanket, which made Liu Hongjian very angry. kinky.

"Then what about Mr. Chen, the censor of the right deputy capital?" Liu Yongpeng asked again.

The Procuratorate has the censors of the left and right capitals, the next is the censors of the left and right deputy capitals, and then the censors of the left and right capitals. Kefa, the left deputy capital censor, is temporarily in charge of Nanjing military affairs and is not in the capital. Chen Taiying, the censor of the Yu You Deputy Capital, was alone.

"The king will go get him later, what's the matter with you? Why are you so long-winded?
What happened to the fourth-rank official, special handling in special times, this king will report this matter to the emperor. "Liu Hongjian became a little impatient.

If you don't want to take on this errand, just say it, he won't believe it, no one will be such a big official.

There were only a few leading officials in the Inspectorate, one counted as one, and they were almost taken over by Liu Hongjian. He just wanted to use the Inspectorate to intimidate the courtiers and let them understand the consequences of going against him and the emperor.

The ethos of the imperial court was brought down by the previous emperor, and it was really three days without a roof tile.

In fact, it wasn't Liu Yongpeng's ink marks. The people above him were all arrested. If he could take charge of the Inspectorate, Liu Yongpeng would naturally be in the eyes of the emperor.

But again, if he takes on this task, it will be tantamount to making an enemy of the officials of the Manchu Dynasty. He is a complete imperial party and a thorn in the eyes of scholars all over the world.

How to choose makes Liu Yongpeng very entangled.

Although he was also dissatisfied with the reform of the imperial examination system, he was very disgusted with the way the court ministers dealt with it. It was the people of the Li people who suffered the ultimate punishment for this behavior, which was inconsistent with Confucius' philosophy.

"I will follow orders!" Seeing Liu Hongjian's expression of impatience, Liu Yongpeng was silent for a moment and made up his mind.

"It's just the prince, there's only one lower official, can't he be busy at all?" Liu Yongpeng suddenly thought of a serious problem.

"I remember that the ten-year-long cabinet of the Wanli Dynasty had only Ye Xianggao, the sole assistant. Lord Ye can handle the government affairs of the whole world by himself. You are also a human being. Can you, Lord Liu, even manage a small inspector's office?
Work overtime if you are too busy, in short, you can't neglect government affairs! "Liu Hongjian gave the solution nonchalantly.

Hearing this, Liu Yongpeng felt helpless. The work of the Inspectorate had been backlogged for four days, and if he was asked to do it alone, he might have to work overtime until he was old.

Finally, after a while of good words, Fang rescued three or four subordinate officials from the large and small officials all over the floor to help, and Liu Hongjian led two teams of brocade guards out of the Inspector's Office in a dignified manner.

From the Yamen of the Procuratorate to Jinyiwei Prison, there happened to be a prosperous street passing by, but there was no need for Tiqi to step forward to open the way, and the people were scared to hide on both sides of the street when they saw Jinyiwei handling the case.

Along the way, Shi Bangzhao in the prison van yelled for injustice, and even counted Liu Hongjian's crimes. The commander of Jin Yiwei, Wang Yuanzi, couldn't let this criminal ruin the commander's reputation, and directly blocked a ball of rags. Shi Bangzhao's mouth.

Liu Hongjian didn't care about this. Throughout the ages, there have been a few people who were arrested who didn't feel wronged. Just like what Reid said in The Shawshank Redemption, they were all innocent.

While thinking, another team of Jinyiwei came running from the east.

"Master Commander, the criminal Chen Taiying has been arrested and brought to justice!" a hundred household officials from the Jinyiwei came running to report.

"Wang Yuan!" Liu Hongjian waved the thousand household officials back to the team, and then said again.

"I am humble!"

"Escort all these criminals to Fusi Prison in Beizhen. Remember, lynching is not allowed without my king's order. Well...prison meals will be distributed according to the minimum standard." Liu Hongjian ordered.

He didn't have the heart to interrogate these bird officials, and it wouldn't matter if they were all killed. After all, people just occupied the latrine and didn't shit and didn't make any serious mistakes.

But Liu Hongjian didn't want to spare this group of people lightly. After all, he was killing the chickens to warn the monkeys, and he couldn't let the chickens eat too well, so as not to peck people everywhere.

"I obey!" Wang Yuan cupped his hands and walked away.

Zhu Cihong's secret letter only stated that he was asked to act as soon as possible so that the unfavorable situation could not be resolved, but he did not let him use Jinyiwei. The Inspectorate is also an important supervisory agency of the imperial court. He still has to go to the palace to report such a big matter. .

But before Liu Hongjian's Ma just took a few steps, Jin Yiwei's team was stopped...
