My Ming Dynasty, I have the final say

Chapter 95 Liu Yishen has been in prison for who knows how long.

Chapter 95 Liu Yishen has been in prison for who knows how long.
In the room of the cabinet ministers, Han Xu looked at the draft imperial edict sent in front of him and sighed in his heart.

"This time it's really like a paper pavilion."

This is a newly sent draft imperial edict, which covers the restructuring of the four prefectures in Liaodong and the recommendations of the six ministers on candidates.

Yes, the recommendation of the Six Ministers, or the recommendation of Bi Ziyan and Zhou Yingqiu, has nothing to do with him as a cabinet minister.

After the imperial edict was written, it was sent to Nanhaizi for sealing, and then to the Supervisor of Ceremonies for backup.

Han Xu signaled the secretary of the cabinet to draft the decree, and Han Xu had helplessness written all over his face.

When you encounter an emperor who is indirectly deaf like Tianqi, you really have no choice but to directly issue an imperial edict, and then the courtiers will cooperate, and they will not listen to any objections at all.

As for refuting the imperial edict, does Han Xuxian have nothing to do?

It took a lot of effort to get Fang Congzhe home to recuperate. If this were to refute the imperial edict, I'm afraid Fang Congzhe would have recovered from his illness tomorrow.

"Hey."

Sighing, Han Xu stood up, stood in front of the window and looked out the window.

At this time, he suddenly felt envious of Liu Yishen, who was raising mosquitoes in the prison of the Ministry of Punishment.

Standing high and looking far away, he could see clearly that the emperor just disliked Liu Yishen, but had no murderous intentions.

At the same time, in the prison of the Ministry of Punishment.

Liu Yixuan, Yao Zongwen, Hui Shiyang and others were bored and watching mice fight.

The same people from the end of the world, why do they know each other when they meet.

No, it’s not necessary to be accomplices when we meet.

Watching the rat named Da Wei caught by Yao Zongwen and killing the rat named Wang Er caught by Hui Shiyang, Liu Yishui gained a new understanding of the boredom of these individuals.

"Ministry of Punishment, aren't you planning to put me on trial yet?"

Pulling out a straw from under his buttocks and biting it in his mouth, Liu Yishuo looked at the two drinking jailers outside and asked.

"You'd better live here peacefully."

Two jailers were sitting at a small table eating food and drinking. When they heard this, the leader said without even looking at Liu Yishen.

"Now the Ministry of Justice doesn't even have a minister, who do you want to interrogate you?"

The little jailer picked up the wine bowl and took a sip, shaking his head and saying with great enjoyment.

"Besides, Mr. Liu, you are an assistant minister of the cabinet. Without the emperor's decree, you are not qualified even for the joint review of the three departments."

This jailer has a good understanding of the Ming Dynasty's interrogation system.

Major cases in the Ming Dynasty were tried by the three divisions and developed to the present.When officials of third rank or above commit crimes, they basically need to be tried by the three departments.

As for the ministers in the cabinet, they need the emperor's decision on how to interrogate them.

"Hey."

Hearing this, Liu Yishuo shook his head and asked again.

"Has Yuan Yingtai, whom I recommended, returned to Beijing? How did His Majesty deal with him? Did he order him to surrender or rebel in Liaodong?"

"Yuan Yingtai."

After taking a bite of cold pig ears, another jailer chimed in.

"No, after he was transferred back, he went to the Ministry of Works and was the right minister of the Ministry of Works. I heard that he was transferred to Nanhaizi to lead the city and build a camp some time ago."

"Chengjianying? What is that?"

At this time, Yao Zongwen stretched his head to the railing and asked.

"It's the former Beijing Camp. The emperor drew out the elite of the Beijing Camp and formed two new guards. Those who were not made to be soldiers were all incorporated into the city construction camp. I heard that under the leadership of Yuan Yingtai, he was built in Nanhaizi Where’s the land?”

Hearing this, Liu Yishuo's eyes flickered and he thought in his mind.

"Your Majesty, are you dissatisfied with me alone?"

Being able to roll four times in a row and become a shujishi, Liu Yishen's political sense is quite keen.

Hearing that the emperor did not punish Yuan Yingtai, Liu Yishen understood the emperor's thoughts.

Yuan Yingtai was not punished for recruiting surrender, but he was imprisoned for employing people.

Moreover, the emperor asked Yuan Yingtai to go to the Ministry of Works, which was obviously because he knew Yuan Yingtai's ability to repair water conservancy.Now, Liu Yishen has two understandings.

First, the emperor had the ability to discern people, and he obviously believed that Yuan Yingtai was not capable of succeeding Xiong Tingbi.But Yuan Yingtai was able to repair water conservancy, so he was not punished.

Second, Liu Yishui left an image of an unknown person to the emperor just because he recommended Yuan Yingtai to replace Xiong Tingbi.But the emperor did not want to deal roughly with a cabinet minister appointed by his father.

Now the emperor has chosen not to interrogate him. This is to treat him coldly, but the reason is definitely not just to recommend Yuan Yingtai to the throne. Just an unknown person would not lead to the current situation.

How did he offend the emperor to this extent?

"Hey."

After a long sigh, Liu Yishen bit the straw in his mouth with regret.

He shouldn't be bewitched by those individuals and think about using someone else to pick Xiong Tingbi's peaches.

"Go in!"

Just when Liu Yishen regretted it, with a burst of noise, he saw Jin Yiwei escorting a group of people into the prison of the Ministry of Punishment.

"Who are these people?"

Seeing someone else being sent in, Hui Shiyang and others hurriedly leaned on the railing and asked curiously.

"them?"

Hearing this, the guard in charge of escorting the prisoner, Chitoda Ergen, turned his head to look at the other party and grinned.

"A group of impatient businessmen and wealthy people, seeing the mine being acquired by the palace, actually dared to spend money to hire beggars to cause trouble at Beihongmen."

With that said, Tian Ergen patted the two jailers who didn't care about drinking and said to them.

"In recent days, there have been too many prisoners in Fusi, Jinyiwei North Town, and they can't be locked up, so they will be sent to you."

"These people have been found to be colluding with each other and intending to commit rebellion. They are waiting to be reported to the emperor for approval and beheaded in public. You should stay away from them."

"Yes Yes Yes"

When the jailer heard this, he nodded hurriedly.

"I understand, I understand, I don't dare to get involved with these people."

"Ah."

Nodding, Tian Ergen handed the other party a list and waited for the other party to order people.

Hearing the whole conversation between Tian Ergen and the jailer, Liu Yishui and others felt a little magical.

How many people did this Jinyiwei arrest?

The imperial prison in charge of Fusi in Beizhen could be filled to capacity.

After finally waiting for Tian Ergeng to leave, Liu Yishui took out a piece of silver from his sleeve, handed it to the jailer, and got the list given to him by Xu Xianchun.

Looking at the famous wealthy households in the capital on the list, Liu Yishen couldn't help but sigh.

They also heard about the news that beggars were causing trouble in Beihongmen.

But I didn't expect that the emperor would let Jinyiwei expand it.

"They even took the pot away."

Looking at the rich people who were beaten all over with bruises, Liu Yishen's heart sank slightly.

This kind of major case has not happened in the Ming Dynasty for many years.

Even in the country-based dispute that year, Wanli only demoted officials in batches and did not dare to expand the matter.

The last time something like this happened was the Zuo Shunmen case during the Jiajing period.

After entering prison, Liu Yishen had the opportunity to calm down and think about what happened after Zhu Youxiao ascended the throne.

What frightened him the most was that he didn't know whether the emperor was angry and revolting, or whether he had planned it for a long time.

Acting in anger is good news for courtiers. After all, character flaws are there and can be exploited.

But if it had been planned for a long time, then Donglin's life would be really difficult in the future.

 If you drink too much, point it out if you have any problems and I will correct them later.
