Chapter 364 Attribution of Military Power
Xiao Lingtian actually had his own considerations in his heart, originally he brought these unconscious brothers back just to pretend to be good-looking. Seriously calculated, there are not many real brothers, friends and brothers, but for political interests. Originally, these guys lived in Shengjing for two years, and then found a reason to rush back to the fiefdom, and by the way, they also beat up, so those things that he had done evil before, his Holy Monarch Old Man should be merciful and turn a blind eye to the past. But now it's good, two days before he came back, he began to point the finger at his most important son. Well, that little bastard is the one who will suffer? Now, not to mention that he has been trapped, even his own holy monarch has been trapped. If you don't investigate this time, won't that precious son of your own family make a big fuss? What's more, those old guys from the Yushitai and the Criminal Department, waiting left and right to have this opportunity to deal with the clan, and it is strange that they will let it go. Even if you want to just press it down, you probably can't find a good reason. But if you really want to investigate, do you still need to investigate? Xiao Lingtian, who thinks that he is not a faint king, knows very well that even those secret agents scattered in the empire can confirm that none of these crimes are false. But once it is verified, how can you sentence yourself to exile, beheading, and exterminating your family? Isn't your brother's and brother's routine properly played by this group of bastards?
Glaring at his bastard sons who didn't know how to share Lao Tzu's worries and would find trouble all day long, and scratched his eyes heavily at the stupid younger brother who still had a face begging, Xiao Lingtian sighed and began to make this multiple-choice question that he didn't have to choose at all.
"The Imperial Historical Observatory, the Criminal Department, and the Zongren Department jointly investigated the murder of the second lady of the Marquis of Ai Guo. The Imperial Historical Observatory Supervision Yuan, the Criminal Department of the Department of Justice, the Department of Officials Surveying the Heavens, and the Zhengde Institute of the Zongren Department jointly thoroughly investigated the illegal case of the Marquis of Mourning. The files of these two cases were submitted to me, and I had to personally try them. After Xiao Lingtian finished speaking, he sighed in his heart, only to feel that this throne was really uncomfortable.
"Your Majesty Shengming!" no matter what their thoughts were, everyone bowed down at this moment to express their admiration for the "just" Holy Monarch.
Waving his hand to let everyone get up, Xiao Lingtian, who had a headache, rubbed his temples and said with a little dissatisfaction: "I'm a little tired, what else do you have to do? ”
"Your Majesty, the minister has something to do. Shen Kun, the head of the Privy Council of the Criminal Department, knelt on the ground and said: "Now there is an urgent event, forget Your Majesty's holy judgment." ”
"What's the matter, come on. After Xiao Lingtian finished speaking indifferently, he cheered up and looked at Shen Kun who was kneeling on the ground.
"Our court has strict laws, and Weichen has to control the law, thanks to His Majesty's wisdom. But now, His Majesty's birthday is approaching, the envoys of various countries and the feudal officials of all parts of the empire gather in Shengjing, dragons and snakes are mixed, and there are not a few people with bad intentions. Originally, His Majesty handed over all the authority of public security in Shengjing to Prince Ling Xiao, but now His Royal Highness the Prince is suspected of the murder of officials and dependents, and according to the law, he should be temporarily removed from all his positions, and His Majesty will make a judgment after the truth is revealed. But if His Royal Highness the Prince leaves his military position, then who should inherit this matter of Shengjing's security and defense?" Shen Kun said with a straight face.
"Nonsense!"
Slapping the armrest of his dragon throne heavily, Xiao Lingtian raised his eyebrows and shouted with an angry face: "Although Qinglong'er is suspected of mourning the death of the second lady of the Marquis, what does it have to do with the army? If the head coach is suddenly changed at this moment, the people of Shengjing will be panicked and will be used by people with good intentions, and it will be another turmoil. Stand down, and there is no need to discuss this matter again. ”
"But, Your Majesty......"
"I'll tell you to step down!"
Shen Kun wanted to say something more, but Xiao Lingtian had already raised his hand with anger on his face and pointed at the middle-aged man who was kneeling on the ground.
"Your Majesty, the reason why the law of the land can punish all the people of the world is because everyone is equal before the law. If Your Majesty moves the law with his own feelings, then others can do the same and break the law of the country with his personal feelings. I beg your Majesty to think twice. Shen Kun knelt on the ground and refused to back down at all.
"Do you really dare not kill you?" Xiao Lingtian was angry and shouted, as if he was unhappy no matter how bad he was, he was really going to kill.
"If Your Majesty is beheaded, the ministers will be as happy as they are. Shen Kun raised his head without fear, and his blazing eyes looked at Xiao Lingtian without any scruples.
Xiao Yichen, who had just returned to the chair and sat down, shook his head and muttered softly: "That's why this king hates these old guys who can't eat the ancients." ”
After saying helplessly, Xiao Yichen stood up and said, "Father, the son should avoid suspicion." As for Shengjing's defense, it has been arranged, and it is okay to hand it over to Xiao Si for disposal. What's more, what Erchen has not done, it is difficult to let others frame it, and it will definitely be able to redress the grievances in less than two days, and it will be in broad daylight. The son implored his father to temporarily withdraw his military position and the fourth emperor's brother Xiao Feixing took over. ”
glanced at his son and knew that he was trying to break the siege for himself, and the province was going to have trouble with these civil officials. Xiao Lingtian had an unbearable look in his eyes, and after thinking about it, he said categorically: "I have made up my mind, no one needs to say much." ”
Speaking of this, Xiao Lingtian raised his eyebrows and said proudly: "I might as well tell you the truth, don't talk about what the so-called murder case is all about, you know it in your hearts." Even if Qinglong'er dismantled people on the street, I would only beat him up, take back a gold medal for avoiding death, and keep his original position! There are more than 100 meritorious monuments in Lingxiao Palace, and I personally said that one monument is one crime! Killing officials and relatives on the street is not an unforgivable crime, and it will be included in the eight discussions, no matter how you discuss it, no matter how you discuss it, discuss merit, discuss nobles, discuss relatives, etc., no matter how high it is, it is just a punishment of demotion to the lord. Even if I have confirmed Qinglong'er's guilt now, I will only smash one of the more than 100 meritorious monuments in his palace!
"Your Majesty Shengming!" The old man of Dingguo Gongcheng strode out with a fist and said loudly: "Your Majesty said it in person, one monument and one crime, and no one objected to the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty. Now, you want to be a shameless villain who repeats yourself, and you have to force Your Majesty to be a faint monarch who changes the order of the day? What's more, isn't it just killing a woman, just find out who kills it, and which turn will it be to you idiots who have never even seen blood to question the ownership of military power?!"
"That's good!" "The old man Mu of the Protector of the country came out of class and said loudly: "Shen Kun, the military and political affairs and civil affairs have always been separated. As a civilian official, you dare to get involved in the deployment of military power, and the old man asks you, is it because you lost your words for a while, or if you have bad intentions?!"
"This ......" Shen Kun's big hat is not so easy, if he chases deeper, I am afraid that the nine clans will be wiped out in an instant.
