Chapter 549 Asking about the Situation

After thinking for a while, he added: "Speaking of which, the leathers that Zigu sent before are really good. I picked two pieces and had them made cotton-padded pants. They are very light and warm to wear."

Then he coughed twice.

Shi Shi hurriedly took the throat lozenges that Bai Zhi gave just now, "Master, would you like to take a piece?"

Cao Gang thanked Rong An, took a bite, and the feeling of cold water quickly spread in his mouth, and his throat felt much more comfortable.

Rong An said: "I came here this time to learn about the current situation in Beijing with Second Young Master Cao.

"After all, I've been in my boudoir all the time, and it's inconvenient for me to exchange news. Because of the accident in Beijing, it's not easy to come out."

Cao Gang nodded, "I know."

Without talking nonsense, I directly talked about the current situation in Beijing and China.

In the imperial court, Emperor Wenchang made great efforts to rectify, dismissed many officials from the faction of the second and third princes, and promoted many local officials with outstanding achievements, and several wise men who were born in civilian life and had never passed the imperial examination.

However, the sages are temporarily unable to take up important positions, and must first go to the six departments to observe politics and collect qualifications.

Qi Jun still temporarily serves as left prime minister, but he only has an official position without salary, so he stays in office as a crime.

The third prince committed a lot of crimes and was demoted to a commoner. He was temporarily imprisoned in the former third prince's mansion. After the new year, he will be exiled to Lingnan.

The Chen family will punish all crimes according to the law, all the principal offenders will be executed, and the accomplices will also be punished severely. As for those who were coerced into the Chen family, they will be dealt with specially according to the severity of the case and their real situation. Ying's life and even the imperial examination are all like ordinary people.

But if you have been a minion for a tiger, you will be punished severely.

The female relatives were not treated differently, because many female relatives also participated in the evil.

Most of the officials of the Chen family's faction were dismissed from office, and very few who had performed meritorious service were demoted and retained.

Cao Gang's specific punishment matters are summarized in one ledger, and Rong An can read it slowly.

Because of the third prince's accusation, the second prince also got into a commotion. There are many things that are well-founded. Therefore, Emperor Wenchang ordered him to fine his salary for five years, to contemplate for a year behind closed doors, and not to participate in political affairs.

The Xie family was also severely punished, and the head of the family, Mrs. Xie, even lost his gift.Most of the officials of the Xie family's faction were downgraded, and some lost their positions.

Generally speaking, it is much better than that of the third prince.

Now the officials of the Xie family and the Xie family's faction are very low-key in their behavior and work, and even the third master Xie has already behaved with his tail between his legs.

Rong An couldn't help but snort when he heard this.

Cao Gang wondered, "Is there something I don't know?"

Of course he didn't know about the snow disaster in Fengze County, but Rong An didn't intend to bring it up, he just said: "Master Xie San has done so many evil things, why hasn't he been punished?"

"Alas," Cao Gang sighed, "Old Master Xie is wise and wise, but he lacks decisiveness in dealing with the matter of Third Master Xie.

"He found a scapegoat for Mr. Xie San, and all the witnesses' evidence was flawless, so he escaped the punishment.

"However, I heard that Xie's family has also punished him internally, so it should be difficult to go out in a short time.

"Now that the second prince stays behind closed doors and loses his original errand, Third Master Xie can no longer seek personal gain under the pretext of working for him.

"But please don't worry, Ms. Chu, since I know that Mr. Xie San is full of evil, naturally I can't let him roam free."

Rong An nodded.

Cao Gang talked about something else, "The Empress Dowager is seriously ill, I'm afraid she won't be able to survive this winter."

Rong An has no sympathy.
