Jinyi Night Walk

Although the general of the Xu family was strange, he didn't dare to disobey him, so he quickly ordered a few guards and followed him to chase away people.

As soon as Ming'er returned to the carriage and sat down, there was the sound of guards shouting and driving away, the more Ming'er thought about it, the more uneasy she became, and she couldn't help feeling a little restless.

She was young, and had never personally experienced the big cases of Hu Weiyong and Li Shanchang during the Hongwu period that plagued the court officials, but in the family of the officials, she was familiar with these big cases, can she jump into the whirlpool at this time?So what about the Duke of the State, how many families of princes and lords, and how many high-ranking princes have been implicated in Hu Weiyong's case alone?

The king's son-in-law wouldn't tell Yang Xu about the private matter of borrowing a house from the king's son-in-law, and Yang Xu couldn't tell anyone about it, and it only took a day. Unless someone cared, how could he find out about this place?Instructing Duan Yushi's family to come to ask Yang Xu, probably with ill intentions, the court dissuaded the emperor from murderous intentions, and accepting the prisoner's family's request to speak for him, those are absolutely different things.

Ming'er was born in a family of honorable ministers, and she has a keen political sense. Her political literacy is not as good as that of a careless girl like Ziqi and Su Ying, even a girl like Xie Yuke who gave birth to a delicate heart. , This is the knowledge accumulated over the years of background and status.Others have to struggle for a lifetime, and if they are lucky enough to survive, they can use countless lessons to sum up this knowledge. She has been fascinated by it since she was a child.

"No, I have to find him immediately and remind him! Although that stinky guy is quite clever, there are many ways to kill people with soft knives in the officialdom. He is a newcomer, so he will not be sold out by accident?", Ming A lady of every family can't go all over the street to find a man. After leaving the house lent to Xia Bi by the king's son-in-law, she immediately returned to Dingguo's mansion and asked her nephew Xu Jingchang to look for Xia Xun. Rush to the Ministry of punishment.

From the very beginning, Xia Xun consciously did not want to be involved in the inevitable political cleansing brought about by the change of dynasty. If one person is guilty, the whole family and even the whole clan will be implicated. Shouldn't it?Xia Xun didn't think it should be, but he didn't think it should be corrected.

People are valuable and know themselves, and they have to measure how many taels they have. Just like him in the city of Jinan, the city is full of hungry people, and countless deaths. He has food in his hand, but it is only enough to protect himself. The poor are alone, and he has no control over the emperor. Energy, this point, he knows himself very clearly.

What's more, what he thinks shouldn't be measured according to the values ​​of later generations. He can't use these to convince people of this era.It's like some rappers use the thinking mode formed by modern education to criticize the ancient three wives and four concubines as stallions, who knows that the eighteen generations of his ancestors came here unless they have always been poor.Different eras, different environments, and different civilizations, using your wishful thinking to evaluate the values ​​​​of another era is not the same as chicken and duck.

When Xia Xun was doing things as a law enforcement officer, his reason prevailed over his emotions in most cases. He knew very well that even in modern times, it was impossible not to implicate the families of political prisoners. It won't be so troublesome that they will be beheaded one after another, but in modern society, how many political prisoners themselves are beheaded?

The difference is only the difference in the severity of the ancient and modern criminal laws. As for the crime not as good as the family and even various unfair treatment, it is the same in ancient and modern times.This is still the case in modern times, but 600 years ago, with the understanding of a modern person, you foolishly talked about human rights with others?Do you have the right to time travel if you are stupid?

But reason is one thing, and it is impossible for a person to use reason to control his actions forever. The new list of traitors has expanded to 53 people. Depending on the situation, there is still a tendency to intensify. Xia Xun is really a little bit impatient. Yes, he entered the palace to persuade the emperor to stop when enough is enough. Shocking is necessary, but it should not continue to expand. It looks like this, as long as the emperor doesn't speak, Chen Ying and Ji Gang will keep arresting them, and they will continue to live and punish people.

Although Zhu Di was full of anger, he didn't just focus on the matter of arresting the gangsters. This matter was ordered, and it was fine for someone to do it. Standing at his height, there were too many major issues to deal with, and it was impossible to focus on it all day.In modern times, even if a bureau-level leader wants to recruit a few ordinary employees who have no resistance at all, he can order the confidant departments such as manpower, planning and finance, and the office. He will go to see it in person See how unlucky that person is now or ask how to deal with it?Let alone the emperor of a country.

The bizarre record in the history books that the emperor moved his chair to watch the execution in person was just the imagination of those idiots who thought that the emperor used golden hoes to work in the fields, and the emperor set up a frying pan on the golden palace to fry people. The bizarre legend is directly grafted on the story of King Yan Luo bombing the little devil in the underworld.

When Xia Xun rushed to the palace, Zhu Di was busy selecting people to join the cabinet and sending envoys to inform the nations about his enthronement.

It is generally believed that the cabinet system was created by Zhu Di, but it is not true. The abolition of the prime minister, the establishment of a cabinet, the establishment of the cabinet system and the separation of powers began with Zhu Yuanzhang.Zhu Yuanzhang was very proud of his pioneering work, and specially ordered his descendants and subjects in the "Ancestral Precepts", that is, "Emperor Ming Ancestral Precepts": "Since ancient times, the country has established a legal system. The law is for the peace of the world.

The king of the creation of the world, starting from the humble side, prepared for the difficulties of the world, and knows the good and evil of human relationships.A king who fears success in future generations will grow up in a deep palace and be ignorant of the world.Those who are new to the mountains and forests, they are proud of themselves.Even the ministers of traitors, inquiring about rights, are wise.If the superiors cannot observe it but trust it, they will change the ancestral law to bring chaos to the country and harm the world, so they think about it day and night, and the legislation is left behind, and it will never be published. "

What he meant was that the founding king came from the people, knew the sufferings of the people, and knew all kinds of abuses of the government, so the system he formulated was relatively perfect. The system of the founding emperor had to be slightly changed.However, after Jianwen ascended the throne, although he had not established a prime minister, he had actually established a prime minister, Fang Xiaoru and Huang Zicheng were in charge of state affairs, and the cabinet system survived in name only.

Now Zhu Di intends to re-establish the cabinet. In the past few days, he has successively selected some officials to participate in the compilation of the memorials of the Jianwen Dynasty for four years. This is actually a process of inspection and training for them. Zhu Di intends to select five to seven of them. Form the cabinet together and participate in military and state affairs.Now he has fallen in love with two people, Xie Jin and Yang Rong. Xie Jin is the person who wrote the "Dengji Zhao", full of talent, and Yang Rong is the person who reminded him to visit the ancestral mausoleum first, and the person who succeeds the big one, is thoughtful.

In addition, he also fell in love with Hu Jing, Huang Huai, Yang Shiqi, Hu Yan, Jin Youzi, etc., but he planned to continue to investigate these people, because he was busy with state affairs, he planned to let Xie Jin and Yang Rong enter the cabinet first, and the others People joined in one after another.

In addition, it is to tell the four barbarian countries about my ascension to the throne, North Korea, [Japan], Ryukyu, Annan... In addition to the coastal countries, there are also Western countries such as Hami, including more distant posthumous countries. He also knew about the Muer Empire, the great empire that was once prominent in the West.

In addition, he also plans to arrange for people to investigate the situation of Tartar and Wacha. These two northern countries are, in his opinion, the biggest threat to Ming Dynasty. During the process from the split to the establishment of these two countries, Ming Dynasty was busy with civil war. The size of their country's military strength, the leaders in charge of the regime..." I don't know about all aspects, and he plans to arrange for Xia Xun's Feilong and Ji Gang's Jinyi to do it separately. Although both are Jinyiwei, but Yiming One dark, each has a leader, this arrangement is also a test of his ability to handle the affairs of these two secret spy organizations.

Xia Xun saw Zhu Di who was busy, and Zhu Di immediately told him about it. Xia Xun also didn't want the Flying Dragon Secret Spy he created to spend all his energy on finding Zhu Yun's tomb. The emperor attached the most importance to this matter. Xia Xun immediately agreed, and then suggested to Zhu Di that the prestige had already been established, and the "broken" that was broken and then erected had almost the same strength. Now that all officials are panicked, enough should be stopped.

After a few days, Zhu Di's anger was no longer as strong as the first two days. After thinking about it for a moment, he nodded.

Xia Xun was overjoyed, and quickly answered yes, and asked tentatively: "Both Huang Zicheng and Qi Tai have been arrested, "The treacherous ministers listed on the first list are all in custody. What does the emperor plan to do with them? ? ", Zhu Di glanced at him, and asked: "What else do you have to say? ", Xia Xun hurriedly said: "What the emperor hopes most is not to kill a few stupid scholars, but to return the hearts of scholars in the world, so I think that for those who can be won, we should vigorously strive for it, even if they cannot serve the emperor After Jing Qing's assassination, if the emperor can still be magnanimous to them, not all scholars are stupid. Gan is used by His Majesty. "

Zhu Di glanced at him again, Xia Xun hurriedly lowered his head with his arms crossed.

Jing Qing assassinated and implicated a lot of people. Chen Ying and Ji Gang arrested a large number of people. Now Jianwen's old ministers are anxious to get rid of them and avoid them. If anyone is willing to intercede for them, they will fly away on their own. .And Xia Xun did this, obviously stepping out of a thankless situation. Once someone followed Jing Qing's example and made another fake surrender and actually assassinated, how could Xia Xun not be implicated?He is a minister of the dragon, with outstanding achievements, and now he is an extremely human minister. If it is for some selfish purpose, there is obviously no need to do so.

"He's planning for me." Thinking of this, Zhu Di felt a little warm in his heart. He put down half of the memorial in his hand, his expression eased, and he said to Xia Xun, "Okay, then you go, the dignified Duke will come forward." , I have given them enough face and shown my sincerity? Those who are willing to confess their crimes will be lenient and the officials will be restored to their original posts. Those who are obsessed will be sent to exile even if their crimes are unjustified, and they will never be spared!"

"The minister obeys the order."

Zhu Di glanced at him again, and said, "However... there are three people, you don't need to pay attention to them."

Xia Xun didn't ask the names of those three people. In court, Zhu Di hated Fang Xiaoru, Huang Zicheng, and Qi Tai the most. It's an iron pin holding his father's spiritual throne to the top of the city as a shield. If he pleads for these people, he will definitely be frustrated. He quickly responded: "I understand!",! ~!
