Daming: The most ruthless tyrant in history

Chapter 294
bang~
Thunder exploded between the dark clouds, lightning pierced the void, the sky changed at any time, and light raindrops fell sparsely, but a strong wind roared, and in an instant, the rain became heavier.

crackling~
It was like a torrential downpour, which caused the people coming and going to scatter and take shelter under the sound of complaints. The capital seemed to come to a standstill at this moment.

Fucaifang.

Integrity Council.

"The storm is coming."

In the main hall of the Shangshu Office, Cui Chengxiu stood at the door of the hall with his hands behind his hands. He looked at the pouring rain outside the hall with a slightly emotional expression, "It seems that we can't wait any longer."

"Integrity has been decided?"

Li Kuilong, who was standing behind him, glanced at Tian Ji and the others, and looked at Cui Chengxiu's back with a serious expression, "If we really do this, something will happen to the government. After all, the joint letter of accountability is still there. Stopped at the cabinet, there are no votes to be submitted to the emperor."

"Decided."

Cui Chengxiu flicked his sleeves and turned around, "If we don't move, I'm afraid the Secretary of General Affairs or the Supervisor of Ceremonies will be piled up with memorials to impeach us.

Other memorials or government affairs were discussed in the cabinet, and either the votes were proposed to be submitted to the emperor, or they were rejected in their original place. However, there was no follow-up on this matter.

Don’t you think there’s a problem?
There are also recent changes in the political situation and changes in the direction of the capital. Do you smell anything?If we don't take action now to drag some people into the water, I'm afraid the good days of our Institute of Integrity will come to an end. "

Everyone's expressions were solemn when they heard this.

As an official in the complex and ever-changing central government, no matter what type of person you are, you must maintain a cautious and sober mind, otherwise you will never know when you will fall into trouble.

"indeed."

Tian Ji frowned and said what he was thinking, "Han Xu took over as Cangchang Shangshu, but there has been no response, as if there is no such person.

With the recent changes in the political situation, it seems that the Donglin Party is still dominant, but in fact, the situation is far from being as simple as outsiders think.

If nothing else, let’s just say that apart from the Donglin Party, the ones who hid the most deeply in the impeachment memorial of the Integrity Council were actually Guan Yingzhen and Wu Liangsi. "

The corners of Cui Chengxiu's mouth turned up slightly, and a flash of light flashed in his eyes. Regarding the warehouse and water transportation matters, the ones who least wanted the Integrity Council to investigate in detail were the Donglin Party and the Chu Party.

Let’s not mention the southeastern provinces for now.

Various problems have existed for a long time.

The reputation of Huguang as "familiar" and "sufficient in the world" has gradually made Huguang different. As one of the representatives, the Chu Party has a strong foundation in the government. This is not without reason.

"If it's just Guan Yingzhen and Wu Liangsi who are doing those little things behind the scenes, it's not enough for me to make this decision." Facing the attention of everyone, Cui Chengxiu walked into the hall, and Li Kuilong and Tian Ji saw them. They all followed Cui Chengxiu.

"From the time the government pressed for accountability, Ben Xian knew that even if some people supported it, it would still have to go through a lot of ups and downs in the end. After all, this matter is not a good thing.

Therefore, even if we wait, it is not harmful in the eyes of this constitution. The cabinet will become a pot of porridge, and the foreign ministers will become a pot of porridge. This is good for our Integrity Council."

The people who sat down with Cui Chengxiu showed different expressions when they heard what Cui Chengxiu said, "You look at me, I look at you."

"Then Lian Xian made up his mind..."

Wu Chunfu, who had been silent all this time, looked at Cui Chengxiu at this moment. When he said what he was thinking, he didn't say it out loud at the end, but pointed to the sky.

"Yes, that's exactly His Majesty's attitude." Cui Chengxiu lifted his robe sleeves and said calmly: "His Majesty always gave a clear attitude on matters such as the postal transmissions that had been discussed by the cabinet when they were presented to the emperor.

Only on this matter, the cabinet did not vote to submit it to the emperor, and His Majesty did not rush to express his position, which is very clear.

And recently, everyone is aware of the trend that has emerged in the capital. The Young Master is going to issue bonds. I don’t know what this thing is for.

But what does Huahui Bank do? You should be familiar with it, right?

According to what I know, many people in various places inside and outside the capital have deposited money with Huahui Bank, and even many merchants have repaid their loans. The person standing behind Huahui Bank is the uncle of the current dynasty. Wang Sheng! "

"So what does your Majesty mean?"

Ni Wenhuan frowned and said: "Could it be that he wants to make the court continue to be unstable and make some people suspicious? But if Lian Xian and Cangchang really investigate the place, the lower official is worried that some people will not be able to sit still. What should I do if I run out of water?"

Cui Chengxiu has made it very clear, and everyone present also understands it, but there are some things you want to do, and it is not as simple as just thinking about it.

"So I want to cut the knot quickly."

Cui Chengxiu's eyes were sharp, he glanced at the people in front of him and said: "As far as I know, Jin Yiwei has recently been dispatched to various places in Beizhili. This is a good opportunity for us.

Let's divide the places. When everything is clear, you will leave Beijing and rush to various places. If you don't check anything else, just check the warehouse, without giving the local area a chance to react. "

"But why does Luo Sigong want to help the Institute of Integrity?"

Li Kuilong said with some uncertainty: "After all, even if this matter is accomplished, for Jin Yiwei..."

"He'll help."

Cui Chengxiu raised his lips slightly and said: "Jinyiwei's foreign flag school wants to gain a firm foothold in the local area, so it must have something that can be used, if for no other reason than to shock the local area.

Don't forget, the situation within Jinyiwei is now different from before since the establishment of a banner school town and Fusi.So as long as the chips are enough, Ben Xian believes that Luo Sigong will make the right choice. "

"But even if we all leave the capital, saying that we want to supervise everything in Cangchang may not be able to affect the court immediately." Tian Ji pondered for a moment, then looked at Cui Chengxiu and said.

"This is a matter of this constitution."

Cui Chengxiu's eyes were firm and he said: "You are conducting strict investigations while I am in Beijing to mediate. Except for guarding the key criminals and maintaining order in the ICAC office, you will take away all the personnel of the ICAC stationed in Beijing.

This time Ben Xian wants to stir up trouble in Beizhili.

As long as this case can be clarified and some people can be dragged into the water, the reputation of our Integrity Institute will be fully established, and the issue of accountability will be clearly established. "

"Integrity, have you ever thought about it?"

Ni Wenhuan hesitated to speak, but thought of something, and said in a sonorous tone: "If we really want to do this, what if some of the prefectures and counties under the rule of Northern Zhili are born..."

"That's not something you have to think about."

Cui Chengxiu waved his hand and interrupted: "You only need to run your own errands. As for other things, you don't need to think about it. Everything is governed by the Constitution!!"

But when he said this, Cui Chengxiu's heartbeat couldn't help but quicken, and he secretly thought in his heart, Your Majesty, what exactly do you want to do? If a big trouble occurs, if a riot really breaks out, it will be difficult for Northern Zhili to be stable. , yes, the reason why Cui Chengxiu made up his mind was that he received a secret edict from the Qianqing Palace. Everything was planned by Zhu Youxiao...
