back to ancient times to be emperor

Chapter 423 Disposal
Lu Chengqi suddenly remembered a detail, why didn't he stand up when the villain beat the boy's father just now?But what he didn't see was that if the craftsmen squatting down and chiseling the bluestone slabs hadn't held the young man tightly, he might have used the hammer and chisel in his hand to overthrow the evil official.

Just because Lu Chengqi focused all his attention on the villainous official who was beaten up by the craftsman, he naturally couldn't see the overall situation.It's normal to have some doubts at the moment.This doubt flashed away, and what made Lu Chengqi even more troublesome was how to deal with these evil officials.Now their crimes are obvious. They embezzled the wages of the craftsmen, beat the craftsmen, and if they wanted them to die, they just put a disobedience on the imperial decree.

But in this way, more people will lose their heads in the whole Dashun.There are such filthy officials who are full of private pockets at the feet of the emperor, let alone the remote state capital far away from the emperor.If they really wanted to make a warning to the monkeys, I'm afraid everyone in Dashun would be in danger, which would not be worth the candle.

After all, many yamen tasks can only be completed by subordinate staff.If there is a big killing spree, the subordinates all over the world will be panicked. Do you still want to do the work of this yamen?Doing so is a bad policy and must not be done.

Just when Lu Chengqi was having a headache on how to deal with these evil officials, Xu Jingchun arrived with more than a hundred inspectors.Xu Jingchun has been the head of intelligence for so long, and his emotional intelligence has skyrocketed. Seeing Lu Chengqi's appearance, he knew that he was playing the trick of private visits on microservices again.But it happened that this person was the emperor, Xu Jingchun felt contemptuous and dared not say it.Looking around again, a group of craftsmen in thin clothes and covered in lime dust stood aside, all lowered their heads and waited for Lu Chengqi to pronounce his fate.

And a group of subordinate officials in official uniforms all knelt in front of Lu Chengqi. If Xu Jingchun hadn't known about it in advance, Xu Jingchun would not have been able to guess what was going on in such a weird scene.After Xu Jingchun rushed over non-stop, he immediately went to Lu Chengqi's side, and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "Your Majesty, I have brought people here."

Lu Chengqi turned his head, first glanced at the more than a hundred inspectors standing far away, then at Xu Jingchun, frowned and said, "Why did you bring so many people here?"

Xu Jingchun was stunned and didn't know how to answer.When he saw the imperial guard who reported the letter running profusely in sweat, he thought something had happened to Lu Chengqi.As the Son of Heaven's pro-army, the Supervision Department is still necessary if it cannot protect the emperor's safety in Chang'an City?If the supervisory department is gone, with Xu Jingchun's background of offending such an important court official, will his fate be any better?
No matter what his psychology was, Xu Jingchun only wanted to protect Lu Chengqi's safety, so it was understandable to bring more people.Besides, the Supervision Department of Chang'an City is equivalent to the combination of the City Defense Department and the police. It can not only hold firearms, bows and crossbows, but also have a waist and hip. Invincible.With great power comes great responsibility.The Supervision Department not only has to investigate intelligence and supervise the officials, the more important duty is to protect the safety of the emperor.There are imperial guards in the imperial palace, and there is already a city defense department in Chang'an City, and there are [-] imperial guards stationed outside the city, but Lu Chengqi is not at ease, and actually set up a supervision department.From this point of view, Lu Chengqi's fear of death is fully exposed.

Others don't know, so, as a reborn person, Lu Chengqi naturally has his own plans.Dashun corresponds to the Northern Song Dynasty, how did the Northern Song Dynasty die?Isn't it the Kingdom of Jin established by the Jurchens who destroyed the country in the form of a blitzkrieg?At that time, although there were still many troops in the Northern Song Dynasty, they were too far away from the capital Bianliang, and rescue was impossible.Without warning, the Northern Song Dynasty was wiped out by such a blitzkrieg.

Taking history as a mirror, since there are still nomadic peoples such as Khitan, Jurchen, and Shiwei (the ancestors of the Mongols) in this time and space, the defense of the capital must be done well.Although Chang'an City is far inland, it is no more dangerous than Bianliang, but it is always right to be careful when sailing for ten thousand years.

This is the inappropriateness of the imperial system. Once the emperor is captured, the country will be destroyed directly.Just like there is no general in chess, even if there are chariots, horses and cannons, it is useless.I'm afraid this is also the reason why the Ming Dynasty wanted to install another court team in Jinling.Even if Li Zicheng and the Manchu Tartars occupied the Central Plains, the Nanming still existed for a long time, but the Ming Dynasty had been corrupted from the root, and it was hopeless.

When Lu Chengqi saw Xu Jingchun using so many people, he was dissatisfied because he was afraid that things would become serious.But after thinking about it, he changed his mind and said: "Forget it, just come. Director Xu, in your opinion, how should these evil officials be dealt with?"

When Lu Chengqi said these words, he deliberately amplified his voice so that the evil officials kneeling on the ground could hear them.Sure enough, each of them shook their bodies.Xu Jingchun already had a rough idea of ​​what was going on, but he had also heard about it.He just thought that he would only deal with such a guy when Lu Chengqi personally ordered to deal with it.

Xu Jingchun also came from a poor background, and he never had a good impression of these evil officials, so he immediately said: "These people clearly know that the emperor issued an imperial edict, but they deliberately disobeyed it, they should be punished by death!"

After all, he was born as an intelligence chief. When Xu Jingchun said this, it was as if a gust of wind had blown over, frightening those evil officials to kowtow and say: "Officials, please forgive me, officials, please forgive me, I will never dare again... ..."

Seeing them kowtow and bleeding from their foreheads, staining the street paved with bluestone slabs red, Lu Chengqi also felt compassion. "After all, he is not as hard-hearted as Xu Jingchun! When did this intelligence leader become so bloodthirsty?" Lu Chengqi sighed inwardly.

"Forget it, it's not a crime of death. If they kill someone, they must be punished with death. How about this, fine them to return double the wages they embezzled to the craftsmen, and then kick them out of the official register and join the craftsmen Xiu Chidao, how about it?" Lu Chengqi said deliberately loudly.

After being the director of the Supervision Department for so long, Xu Jingchun has some political savvy.Hearing what Lu Chengqi said, he just didn't want to delve into it.As for the reason, why did Xu Jingchun think too much, he just followed the little emperor's wishes.

"Mr. Huang is kind, let them live, why don't you come here and thank you?" Xu Jingchun shouted, not angry.

Those evil officials heard that their lives were safe, they were so excited that they crawled over and said, "Thank you for not killing me, thank you for not killing me!"

Lu Chengqi said impatiently: "Okay, okay, Director Xu, this is your supervisory department's business, keep an eye on them from now on! Even if they become craftsmen, just treat them equally, don't make any more fools." ,do you know?"

Before he knew it, Lu Chengxing adopted an orderly tone, but fortunately, the people around him didn't recover for a while.But he consciously slipped his words, and quickly said: "Gao Hao, what are you looking at, let's go!"

After hearing this, Gao Hao hurriedly followed.Lu Chengqi was eager to get rid of the crowd and moved very fast.

At this time, some knowledgeable people in the crowd always recalled it: "The Supervisory Division can only be commanded by the current Holy One. Look at that person, isn't he just in his teens!"

"That's right, I actually saw the face of the Holy Spirit, that's amazing!"

……

Xu Jingchun saw that the surrounding situation was a little out of control, and he shouted: "The Supervision Department handles the case, it has nothing to do with anyone, leave quickly!"
