Chapter 97
At first, An Yifan learned that Lord Zeng was going to tell the old man, and he sighed in his heart, afraid that Qi Hui would take the opportunity to become the new secretary of the Ministry of Industry, so there was no hope of revenge for his friend's hatred.
Although An Yifan was worried about the ability of the new Shangshu, he decided to gamble once after inquiring about the Wing King's personality, and the success or failure was here. After hearing the inexplicable words of the Wing King, he was shocked, and felt that he had thought too much, and only now did he dare to stand up and testify.
"My lord, the lower officials have never done it." Qi Hui didn't know how to explain.
Raising his hand, Hongming put an account book in his hand.
"Let's see." threw the account book in front of Qi Hui and the others, and said as if unintentionally: "Lord Zhou, it's your turn." ”
"The Wing King is a good method, and many quibbles are so pale in front of the evidence." Zhou Qianda admired the Wing King from the bottom of his heart, even if there is the emperor's handiwork here, it is not easy for a baby to do this, and it should be praised.
"Lord Zhou is polite." replied lightly, took out the list in his hand and handed it to Hong Ming: "You must not stand on the left side of the name." ”
didn't give Qi Hui and the others a chance to argue, she made it clear before, but someone didn't take it seriously, and now it's too late to say it.
Zhou Qian clapped his palms, and the officials of the criminal department who were waiting outside the gate rushed in and surrounded the courtyard.
The official who was kneeling on the ground was shocked into a cold sweat when he saw this battle, and only then did he remember what the Wing King meant by his previous reminder.
Where is this dismounting, it is simply a big purge, the officials headed by Qi Hui seem to want to run away, and many officials regret it, thinking about whether Shangguan can open the net.
There are timid officials who are so frightened that their legs are weak, and in order to protect them, they shake all the things that Qi Hui and others have done, there are one and two, and there are more than one officials who are afraid of death. Many people have pointed out the ugly things committed by Qi Hui and others in recent years.
Qi Hui never thought that his own person would stab himself at the last moment, and there was no room for turning around now, his face immediately turned pale and pale, and the hatred in his heart was there, how could he put on a fool who specially dragged himself back.
Qi Hui and others are gone. The officials who were bitten out were even more self-conscious, pointing at each other's noses and scolding, and the good venue immediately turned into a vegetable market.
"What's the noise!" Stopping drinking, the arguing official immediately shut up, "If you have something to say, go to the prison of the Criminal Department and say that this official has already spoken first, and he will not wait for it to be outdated." ”
"Take it all down." Looking at this large group of soft-footed shrimp, Zhou Qian's heart was happy that the prison of the Criminal Department could finally be half full, it was better to have something to do than to be idle and bored, and the torturers under his hands were so happy that they couldn't scream.
There is no reason for the superior to obey the order. At that moment, three-quarters of the officials on the ground were escorted away like chickens, and the courtyard suddenly became empty.
The rest of the officials were so overwhelmed that they didn't dare to look at the Wing King's expression, waiting for the final verdict like a prisoner.
"Get up." Motioned for An Yifan and the others to get up.
"My lord, is there something unclear about the lower officials?" An Yifan stood up. Another salute asked the puzzle in my heart.
"Say." I don't mind answering questions.
"Where did the account books come from?" An Yifan asked that it was called a Geng Zhi, and the rest of the officials were so shocked that they were beating drums in their hearts, can this be asked?
"Books." Give the answer concisely and to the point.
An Yifan raised his eyebrows and was very surprised, "Where the account books are stored, there are so many account books...... I can't see it at all.
"The beginning of Qi Hui's promotion to the rank of squire." For people who are not arrogant and impatient and have the ability to learn, they have always appreciated, and their attitude will naturally be relaxed.
"The lower officials are taught." An Yifan was able to fill in a general situation from the Wing King's simple answer. There is nothing more to ask when you get the answer you want, and you retreat to the rest of the officials.
"It's better to remember what the official is going to say next." Glancing at the panicked officials, "Those who are talented in the Ministry of Industry can be promoted, provided that you put away your petty means, whether it is a conspiracy or a conspiracy, it is useless here in this official, and do your job in a down-to-earth manner." Don't try to play tricks, once you find out, it's not just a day trip to the prison of the Criminal Department. ”
"The Ministry of Industry must obey the orders of the official, and there are cheaters who ask to leave as soon as possible, and the people in their hearts will be lucky......" The corners of his lips curled, and his handsome face was even more moving. It's just that that smile really sends chills down people's spines.
"The requirements of this official are not high." Enough to appreciate everyone's expressions, "Those who can work hard, if you want to do it again, you have to do it yourself." ”
"The lower officials don't dare." The officials knelt on the ground again, and then they realized what it means to be a new official to take office with three fires, carefully wiped off the cold sweat on their foreheads, and pulled out the cold in their hearts.
"It doesn't matter if you dare to say it." Too lazy to play officially, "There are a lot of vacant positions, it depends on whether you can do it." "You have to give a sweet date to eat when you hit a stick, I don't believe that anyone dares to make a mistake.
Hearing this, the official suddenly raised his head, this is a sign that he is going to be promoted, and he can't help but want to dig out his ears and clear his ears so that he can hear more truthfully.
"An Yifan." Roll call, "Ascending to the place of Qi Hui." ”
Suddenly promoted from the sixth grade to the fourth grade, this, this, not a dream, how can there be such a promotion.
Zhou Qian couldn't stand it anymore, and kindly reminded: "Is it too urgent, the appointment is all ordered by the emperor." "If the Winged King wants to promote people, he has to follow the rules, and if it spreads out, the first one on the side of the official will be guilty of the Winged King's overstepping his power.
"Tomorrow the decree will be given." I had already asked my father to write the holy decree, but the name at the beginning was empty, and I could fill it in directly after seeing the person, so there was no trouble.
Zhou Qian couldn't cry or laugh for a while, this was the Wing King leaking the holy will, or he had already prepared.
An Yifan broke out in a cold sweat, which was more frightening than his blunt admonition, and pie in the sky was not such a drop.
"Lord An." looked at An Yifan, who was stupid.
"Yes." An Yifan came back to his senses in a trembling state.
"In the future, you and I will work together, depending on whether you are right or not." Give An Yifan a reminder, don't hum yourself and slap yourself in the face at that time.
"Yes." An Yifan was up and down in his heart, and he didn't know how to answer, and it was unknown whether working with the Wing King was good or bad.
Four more people were ordered to do the four department heads, and half of the hearts of the officials were raised, it was really promoted and rich, no. It's just that you get promoted, and getting rich depends on the situation. Playing with a big sword in front of the Wing King is beyond his strength.
"Lord Zhou is busy with affairs, so I won't stay much." Opened his mouth to send the officer.
Zhou Qian was very interesting, and when he heard that the Wing King was sending off the guest, he immediately said, "This official will leave." "There's a bunch of people waiting in the prison right now.
"Get up. What's the use of kneeling with a bunch of things on your knees. Throwing down a sentence and entering the house, leaving a group of officials to wipe their sweat frequently, the Wing King is really a cow.
"Yifan." Zhang Xiu, a member of the water department who had not caught An Yifan before, pulled An Yifan aside to speak.
"Do you say that what the adult said about the addition of officials is ......" Zhang Xiu didn't dare to declare the two words, which was disrespectful to Shangguan.
"Adults don't joke with the Holy Decree." What An Yifan didn't say was that with the emperor's favor for the Wing King, there was no fraud in the promotion.
"That's good." Zhang Xiu was one of the named officials, and was promoted to the rank of Mizubu Langzhong, from the fifth rank.
"You're going to scare me to death." Zhang Xiu remembered An Yifan's previous move of rushing out despite his own obstruction, and his heart was about to jump out at that time.
"You're taking an adventure. In case he was beaten upside down by Qi Hui and others, it would be difficult to get out of the way. Zhang Xiu patted his chest in fear, "Why are you so bold?" ”
"Nothing." An Yifan glanced at the room where the Wing King was, "If you miss this opportunity, it will be difficult to defeat Qi Hui and the others." ”
"It is rumored that the Wing King is ruthless, and this time I really saw it. didn't even blink an eyelid, and invited the criminal department to take down the person in one fell swoop. Zhang Xiu's heart was comfortable, and the heart he mentioned could finally be put back in its original place.
"Don't talk nonsense." An Yifan admonished: "Let people listen to you and visit you is small, and it is true to pull you as a stepping stone." ”
Zhang Xiu hurriedly stroked his mouth and looked around, everyone else was gone, okay. OK.
"Where is this going?" Zhang Xiu wondered why he didn't go back to his place.
"Didn't adults say that those who can work harder." An Yifan's rough nerves for his friend really didn't break, "Before the holy decree is issued, we need to understand what the squire and Lang Zhong have to do every day." ”
"Oh." Zhang Xiu was happy to persuade him, and he was worried again, "There are still vacancies." How does no one assign tasks? ”
"Then it depends on your ability." Although his friend has the ability to learn, he has no scheming, and he really doesn't know how to do the position of a foreigner, An Yifan remembered the official business he was about to face, and he had a headache.
The news of the Wing King's bold and resolute rectification of the Ministry of Works did not take long to spread throughout the government and the opposition. The official who was originally sneering and waiting to see the joke of the Wing King, his jaw fell directly, and he slapped a resounding slap properly, and the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty were shocked.
Some officials speculated that what Yiwang did was instructed by the emperor, otherwise there would be no precedent for the new officials to take advantage of their subordinates, and three-quarters of the officials of the Ministry of Industry were now invited to the Criminal Department for tea, and the Ministry of Industry would not take action.
Many ministers talked a lot, saying everything, and the most important remarks were inclined to act on the will of the emperor of the winged king, and as the secretary of the ministry of the winged king, he did not invite the secretary of the criminal department to sit in person.
The official who found fault was about to join the Wing King, but due to the situation, he had to take a break and symbolically write an excerpt and present it. The words were quite euphemistic, intended to test the emperor's tolerance.
There are officials in prison one after another, and now the courtiers in the court must not think that they are planning, and those who want to be in the limelight should rest as soon as possible, but maybe the emperor is used to dragging the courtiers to prison if there is a problem. The king of the wings of the staff was not even brought to the criminal department, and no one would retreat before he put it aside, and he was allowed to rush up, and the result was left alone, it was true that he could refute a good reputation.
Not now, the Criminal Department is now a knife in the hands of the emperor, who does the emperor want to go to prison, how can there be any reason and evidence from the top and bottom of the Criminal Department? The advanced prison is saying, maybe it won't take a cup of tea, what evidence do you want, what evidence you want.
The criminal department is like a hungry wolf drinking blood, he doesn't say it when he sees the flesh, he will pick out the big and small mistakes for you, and even the eighteenth generation of your ancestors will be investigated. Obviously overstepping his duties, the emperor did not speak, and the people of the Inspectorate did not dare to be the rafters who came out, even if they wanted to participate in a book, they were powerless, no one could share the same hatred with them, and in the end it was themselves who were unlucky.
None of the officials who can stand in the court are fools, and they have a rough idea of what to do when they understand the stakes.
When the morning of the second day, Mu Haoyu was depressed for a while, why was the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty so quiet, didn't he hear the news from the Ministry of Industry? No, how can such a big thing be hidden from this group of old foxes.
Mu Haoyu was trying to see the ministers jump to impeach the Wing King, so he could throw a few more people into the Criminal Department to feel what it means to remember bittersweet.
After waiting for a long time, no one spoke, and even the official who had always been the most cheerful closed his mouth, which was too strange, a rare time.
"Do you have something to do?" Mu Haoyu gave the ministers a wake-up call.
As soon as the courtiers heard this, you look at me, I look at you, no one stood up, and the emperor's words were a little wrong.
The small actions of the ministers fell in Mu Haoyu's eyes, this is all angry, and they all act as if they are nothing.
"All Aiqing have nothing to do?" Mu Haoyu asked again.
The officials who doubted the emperor's intentions suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, listening to this, the emperor asked them to ask the Ministry of Works, there is no doubt that the emperor's second question has been revealed.
The officials wiped the cold sweat together, and after discussing it for a while, they pressed the matter and didn't mention it, otherwise what was waiting for them would be the smiling faces of the officials of the Criminal Department.
"That is, there is nothing to play, let's disperse." Mu Haoyu glanced at the ministers with a little disappointment and strode away.
"It's dangerous." Only these two words are enough to cover the mood of the ministers at this moment.
The courtiers walked out of the palace together, and King Lu had to stop to say hello.
just bowed his head slightly and did not return the salute, this scene fell in the eyes of many people, and he had another thought.
Seeing this situation, Zhou Qian, the secretary of the Criminal Department, couldn't help but think of the scene when he saw the Wing King yesterday, and felt proud in his heart, and the Wing King, who was an official in the same dynasty, only asked him for a flat courtesy, this kind of honor is extremely rare and worth showing off.
Immediately, Zhou Qian stepped forward and happily walked with the Wing King to talk about the batch of prisoners in the Ministry of Industry.
Walking behind, many officials saw the criminal department Shangshu walking beside the Yiwang with a big grin, and there were those who said and laughed, completely looking like a ghost, and their eyes were almost shocked When did the iron-faced and selfless criminal department Shangshu actually be able to walk with the Yiwang with a paralyzed face, is it his own eyes are spent, or is today's time wrong, it is unimaginable.
One can be the father of the other, I can't see it at all, the criminal department Shangshu is not too boring to talk to himself, and the smile is full of wrinkles on his face, and he is not afraid to scare others.
It's not what the officials see, Zhou Qian, the secretary of the Criminal Department, didn't talk to himself, he answered, but he was brief, sometimes he replaced it with um, he didn't open his mouth much, but he didn't have any impatience, and sometimes he briefly mentioned his own opinions, and the two got along quite well.
doesn't like to play official, Zhou Qian also only likes to do things and doesn't like to talk much, so that he can get along with the Wing King, and he saw a group of officials drop their jaws.
