back to ancient times to be emperor

Chapter 551
"Wait a minute!"

With a loud shout, all the officials in the hall were shocked.Turning his head to look, it was Qin Yikang, Minister of the Ministry of War.Fortunately, Lu Chengqi had already been mentally prepared. This would put a knife on Qin Yikang's neck. Could he be willing to stand still and not even resist?It's just that Lu Chengqi was unprepared, Qin Yikang, an old boy, has such a powerful roar that he is like a fellow!

He rubbed his aching ears, frowned, and pretended to be displeased, and said, "Qin Qing, what's the matter?"

Holding the wat in his hand, Qin Yikang took a sudden step.This step added countless momentum to him.Even though Lu Chengqi knew in his heart that he was the mastermind behind the scenes, he still couldn't help but move back a little on the dragon chair. "Your Majesty, if you can arrest a person based on the supervisory department's one-sided words, what do you care about the "Da Shun Law"?"

Seeing Qin Yikang's eloquent appearance, Lu Chengqi couldn't help but admire this old boy from the bottom of his heart. This old man was so clever that he came up with such an excuse to silence Lu Chengqi under extremely unfavorable circumstances.Indeed, since Lu Chengqi promulgated the New Deal, he has always emphasized the importance of the "Da Shun Law", which means to act according to the law.Of course, this "Da Shun Law" is subject to the current revision.Since Lu Chengqi took office, he has revised the "Da Shun Law" by promulgating imperial edicts more than [-] times.I'm afraid Lu Chengqi will set a record and become the emperor who wrote the most imperial edicts in his own hand.You must know that the imperial edicts of Dashun are now almost a decoration, drafting edicts or something, and you have to wait until the little emperor is in a good mood before giving you a chance to show off your talents...

Of course, the changes in "Da Shun Law" are all the loopholes summed up by Zhou Yanhua, Minister of the Ministry of Justice, and Ren Qishen, Minister of Dali Temple. Inevitably, Lu Chengqi also added some laws and regulations of later generations to make this "Da Shun Law" even more perfect. whole.

Now that Qin Yikang uses this to save himself, Lu Chengqi can only say that he is really good at drilling, his intuition is extremely sharp, and he firmly grasps the chance of survival.Lu Chengqi understood that Qin Yikang just wanted to buy some time so that he could dismiss the "private soldiers" in the palace and destroy the secret passage...Of course, it is impossible to leave no traces at all, but as long as no "private soldiers" are found If "soldiers" existed, Qin Yikang would not be charged with the crime of rebellion.As for human trafficking, no matter how serious the crime is, there is no danger of life, right?
Lu Chengqi was also thinking about countermeasures, but Xu Jingchun took a step forward and said, "Qin Shangshu, can't you trust me in the Supervision Department?"

Qin Yikang said with a smirk: "It's not that the old minister can't trust the supervisory department, but that it is in accordance with the law and the law. This is not appropriate. If there is no real evidence, if you take someone rashly, you may lose the prestige of the court and damage your majesty's mighty virtue..."

Xu Jingchun thought it was funny: "How did Qin Shangshu know that my supervisory department has no real evidence?"

Qin Yikang was unmoved at all, and said happily, "Since there is, why doesn't Chief Xu take it out and let the officials know about it?"

Seeing this scene, Lu Chengqi thought to himself: "It seems that this old boy is very confident in his secrecy work. He really thinks that the Supervision Department is a fool? This is not the Jinyiwei of the Ming Dynasty. This is the supervision department I created. manage!"

Xu Jingchun took a step forward, held the court wat and said: "Before your Majesty established the Supervision Department, he told his ministers that the Supervision Department only has the right to investigate, not to arrest people. If you want to do something, you have to report it to Your Majesty. After you get the order, Only then can things be done. Since taking charge of the Supervision Department, I have performed my official duties and never favored or framed. Now the case of child abduction and trafficking has been reported to all parties on Kuizhou Road, Zizhou Road, Guangnan West Road, Guangnan East Road, and Fujian Road. The people complained a lot. His Majesty sympathized with the suffering of the people, and ordered his ministers to lead the supervisory department to thoroughly investigate the case. The supervisory department wore stars and moons, and stayed up all night because of this case. There is no place to find it if you break through the iron shoes, and it takes no effort to get it. The human traffickers surnamed Wang started and gradually controlled the traces of this group of human traffickers. After following the clues, they found that this group of human traffickers was backed by the government. After careful investigation, they found Chang'an City, the palace of the Taipingfang. If Shangshu Qin has doubts, why not move Go to the Supervision Department, take a look at the captured suspect, and listen to his confession?"

Qin Yikang was slightly startled when he heard this sentence.The gang of human traffickers he is in charge of is too large, with more than thousands of people.Three streams and nine teachings, all-encompassing, it is normal to have someone surnamed Wang.His confidence lies in the fact that among this group of traffickers, very few know of his existence.He has always been in charge of this group of traffickers through his confidantes, and he hides behind his back to count the money and never shows up.

It was precisely because of this that Qin Yikang said calmly, "Why not just go and have a look?"

Xu Jingchun sneered: "Of course you can go to the Supervision Department. The Supervision Department will sweep the bed and wait. But it is imperative to search the palace. Your Majesty, the behind-the-scenes mastermind of this group of human traffickers is someone in the court. If the bandits are scattered like birds and beasts, it will be difficult to chase them again!"

This sentence is tantamount to trying to make a fool of yourself, Lu Chengqi nodded after hearing this, and was about to speak, when Qin Yikang looked at it, disregarding his manners, and said, "Your Majesty, by doing this, is it not giving someone a handle?"

Lu Chengqi also nodded, pretending to be embarrassed: "The two Qing family's words are all reasonable, so why not besiege the palace first, and I will order the people inside to come out, how about it?"

After hearing this, Qin Yikang lowered his head and rolled his eyes.If this is the case, it will not be a problem for people in the secret passage of the palace to withdraw regularly.He sneered and stopped talking.

"Your Majesty, I said earlier that there are secret passages in the palace. Besieging the palace is equivalent to giving the group of human traffickers an opportunity to escape. I dare you, if you don't search directly, I'm afraid you won't be able to catch them all!" Xu Jingchun and Qin Yikang were exhausted, and the needle pointed at the wheat , never back down.

Qin Yikang said: "If the palace is a good house, there will be no secret passages and private hiding of soldiers? Wouldn't it be a big loss to the court's prestige? Your Majesty, the Minister Xu's words, I dare not agree..."

Xu Jingchun walked up to Qin Yikang unexpectedly, and glanced at him, making Qin Yikang terrified. "Qin Shangshu, all the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty have no objection, why are you so nervous? Could it be that you are the one behind the scenes?"

This sentence was too cruel, and Qin Yikang was furious: "Xu Jingchun, keep your mouth clean!"

"Why, I told you that I won Qin Shangshu's secret?" Xu Jingchun was not afraid at all, "If you are not the mastermind behind the scenes, why bother to stand out?"

"The old minister is very loyal. He thinks about the dignity of the court and doesn't want His Majesty to lose his reputation. Xu Jingchun, you spout blood, and the old minister wants to sue you for slander!" Qin Yikang said sharply.

Xu Jingchun sneered and said: "Qin Shangshu, you don't know that all civil and military officials in the Manchu Dynasty are blind. You have repeatedly obstructed this matter, and your behavior is extremely suspicious. If you are not the mastermind behind it, how can you prove your innocence?"

"The mansion of the old minister is in Yanshoufang. Who in the world doesn't know?" Qin Yikang defended himself eloquently, without any embarrassment.
