Chapter 590: Three-day Time Limit
Chen Qiyu's face was ugly, these people couldn't get oil and water, and he couldn't do anything about them!
All of them are talking around, and none of them are looking like they are going to do things!
Chen Suowen sensed that Chen Qiyu was about to get angry, and whispered in his ear: "My lord, today is a temptation, it's better to do this first, and then go back and think of another countermeasure." Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info"
Chen Qiyu's eyes were as sharp as a sword, this time he really understood the difficulties encountered, and he also understood what Chen meant.
Few of the officials of the Ming Dynasty came from a poor family, their ancestors had many meritorious names, and the network of relationships was complicated over the years, Chen Qiyu really wanted to be angry here, and within half an hour, the impeachment of him would appear one after another in the General Political Envoy Department.
Chen Qiyu was still unwilling, stared at everyone angrily, and said in a deep voice, "The official has finished speaking, this is the 'new deal' of the imperial court, I hope you can see it clearly and don't make mistakes!" ”
Everyone could hear that Chen Qiyu was very inward-looking, and they all raised their hands calmly and said, "The lower officials don't dare." ”
Chen Qiyu shook his hand angrily and walked out of the hall.
Chen Suowen followed closely, walked a few steps and said in a low voice: "My lord, the situation is not optimistic, and it needs to be reported to the cabinet in detail, and the six ministries will know." ”
Chen Qiyu, who has participated in this long-lasting controversy, knows that there are a series of national policies related to the emperor, the most obvious is that the imperial treasury is empty, the disaster is serious, open source is inevitable, and the second is to curb land annexation, no matter which of these two items, the court and the emperor will not give in!
What Chen heard meant was to ask Chen Qiyu to tell the court and the emperor that this matter was far from being as easy as imagined, and hoped that there would be a compromise.
Although Chen Qiyu was furious, he was still awake, and his brows tightened when he heard this.
Now the disasters are endless, endless, the landless are clinging to the thighs of the landed owners, and the landless are hugging even tighter, and even if the grain is moldy in the warehouse, it will not be willing to hand it over to the imperial court. What's more, the 'gentry' is a special group, which is fundamentally different from the 'common people', and the biggest difference is that 'they do not pay food', and to ask them to pay food is to send them back to the 'common people' column. They are absolutely unacceptable!
Chen Qiyu took a deep breath, shook his head and said, "You can't always push the trouble to the top, otherwise the emperor will think that you and I are incompetent, and we need to find another way to do this." ”
Chen nodded thoughtfully, the crux of this matter is on the magistrates, and even more so on those gentry, it is not so easy to solve it!
At the same time, Wei Zhongxian also held the first meeting of the 'emergency yamen' in the east factory.
More than 20 people, including the Inner Supervisor, the Supervisory Yuan, the Criminal Department, the Officials' Department, and the Six Doors, all sat in the meeting room of the side room of the East Factory.
Wei Zhongxian, as Su Ningbo, was wearing a python suit and a golden silk cicada hat, and on the table in front of him was a holy decree and a sword of Shang Fang on the other, which could be said to set off his dignity and power to the extreme!
Liao Changyong of the Criminal Department, Wei Xuelian of the Governor's Yuan, Tang Sanyong of the Ministry of Officials, Wang Yuyang of the Six Doors and a group of other people were expressionless, and they secretly despised it in their hearts.
Everyone else sat not far away, except for the inner supervisor of the celebrant who acted as a 'recorder', the rest were chaperones.
Wei Zhongxian is a eunuch who has done countless evils, no matter how heavy the emperor's favor is, he is an 'evil' person in their hearts, and he is ashamed to be with him. If it wasn't for the big thing this time, they couldn't help but want to disobey and replace someone else.
Wei Zhongxian glanced at everyone lightly, straightened up, his eyes were calm and could not hide his arrogance: "Things must be clear to everyone, before Fu Shangshu was beaten in the household yamen, then the fire burned Shuntian Mansion, burning hundreds of people, and then intercepting and killing important ministers of the court everywhere in the capital, and also gathered people to attack the royal government, such a thing has never happened since the founding of the Ming Dynasty!" ”
Wei Zhongxian's voice was not very sharp, and as he raised his voice, it became particularly harsh, "The emperor is furious, and he specifically refers to the establishment of an 'emergency yamen' to deal with this matter." This matter involved the rebellious people, gentry, government and opposition officials, Jiannu meticulous work, etc., it can be said that the number of poisons is combined, and the situation is serious and unprecedented! ”
Wei Xuelian's expression was flat, his eyes were lowered, and he didn't even look at Wei Zhongxian.
Wei Zhongxian deliberately said so seriously, it was nothing more than wanting to seize power, he was the head of the Governor's Yuan, the Anti-Corruption Bureau, and he was sent to investigate internal corruption.
Liao Changyong of the Criminal Department is considered to be the old seniority of the Criminal Department, with Wu Chunfu transferred to Dali Temple, he has the highest voice for the Servant of the Criminal Department, if he does well this time, it will come naturally, so he is extremely eager, regardless of whether Wei Zhongxian is good or bad, raised his hand and said, "What Wei Gonggong said is that this time we are also deeply shocked, and we should be severely suppressed to show the majesty of our dynasty!" ”
Tang Sanyong of the Ministry of Officials, this person has some meaning, he was originally a hereditary brocade cloth and a hundred households, but he simply gave it to his younger brother, studied hard by himself, was a Jinshi of Wanli 42, and now served as a member of the Ministry of Officials, and was Zhou Yingqiu's henchman, he came this time, Zhou Yingqiu had confessed, unless it involved the Ministry of Officials, don't say much, let Wei Zhongxian decide.
Tang Sanyong is a smart person, so he naturally understands what he means by 'teacher', and he almost dozed off with his eyes closed.
Wang Yuyang of the Six Doors is an exception, the Six Doors were originally dedicated to investigating major cases, and their rank is higher than that of the Anti-Corruption Bureau, but the court has always been stable, how can there be so many big cases to investigate, so the Six Doors have been very idle recently, and it seems to be unusually transparent.
Wang Yuyang has the heart to 'revitalize' the six doors, but she happened to meet Wei Zhongxian and Dongchang, on the investigation of the case, she is confident that she can beat Wei Zhongxian, but on the 'ability', where can the hastily established six doors be compared with the Dongchang for more than 200 years!
Therefore, she wanted to take this opportunity to open the name of the six doors in her heart, and she had already quietly let people investigate secretly, quietly learning from others, with the same expressionless face.
What kind of person is Wei Zhongxian, how can he not see through the minds of these people, but it doesn't matter, he is afraid that things are not big, not chaotic, the bigger the more chaotic is what he wants!
"Fu Yingxing!" Wei Zhongxian suddenly said in a deep voice.
Fu Yingxing walked in from the side door not far away, held a big box, put it on the table, and said with a solemn face, "Ladies and gentlemen, this is what Dongchang recently found, you can preview it first." As he spoke, he laid the evidence on the table.
Liao Changyong, Wei Xuelian and the others frowned and looked at Wei Zhongxian before stretching out their hands.
It doesn't matter if you stretch out your hand, but the content inside shocked everyone and couldn't say it.
This lists nearly 200 officials of all sizes in Beizhili, suspected of corruption, bribery, prostitution, murder, shielding, etc., each of which is enough to seize office and go to prison! Even more terrifying, among them implicated the gentry, the portal, as many as nearly five hundred people!
If this is strictly investigated, I am afraid that most of the officials and gentry in the northern Zhili will be arrested and punished!
The four of them were speechless for a long time, and they raised their heads to look at each other, all of them looking horrified.
Is this an investigation?
This is clearly to put most of the officials in Beizhili in prison, and more than half of the gentry will be exterminated!
This is against the world and offends the whole world!
Wei Zhongxian, this madman!
The hearts of the people trembled in unison.
Wei Zhongxian's expression was flat, and he didn't care what they thought, the corners of his mouth hooked up a smile, and he looked at Wei Xuelian and said, "Lord Wei, I heard that you recently wrote an article about eliminating corruption and purging officials, and you are going to publish it in the court newspaper?" ”
Wei Xuelian's expression was slightly tight, and his eyes were vigilant.
He is the Governor's Yuan, the head of the Anti-Corruption Bureau, and has discussed the issue of 'official governance' with the emperor face-to-face, and writing an article is naturally for the convenience of the Anti-Corruption Bureau, how did Wei Zhongxian know? What do you want to do?
Wei Zhongxian smiled more and said: "Although the miscellaneous family is not literate, it has been in the imperial court for many years, you might as well show it to the miscellaneous family, if it is appropriate, the miscellaneous family will be sent to the palace, and ask the master of ceremonies to chisel it with an axe, and publish it in the name of the master of ceremonies." ”
Wei Xuelian's heart shook slightly, if it was published in the name of the celebrant supervisor, it would naturally have more influence than him, but in this way, there would be nothing for him.
His face changed and he struggled, but in the end, righteousness prevailed, and he raised his hand and said, "The lower official will personally send it to his father-in-law later." ”
Wei Zhongxian nodded with a smile, turned to Liao Changyong, and said, "This time it must involve no family property, and there are not enough people in Dongchang, so I can't say that I have to borrow some manpower from Lord Liao." ”
The words 'copying the family' kept echoing in Liao Changyong's mind, and he leaned over violently and said, "It should be, the next official will go back to ask Lord Shangshu for someone later." ”
Wei Zhongxian looked at Wang Yuyang again quietly, and said, "Miss Wang, although there is a Shangfang sword in Dongchang, some people still have to scruple, and when necessary, they also ask the girl's six doors to make a move." ”
Wang Yuyang's eyes opened, this hearing is that there is a big case!
"No problem!" Wang Yuyang said with an excited expression.
Wei Zhongxian smiled, turned to Tang Sanyong, and said, "Lord Tang, there are many officials involved this time, and it is impossible to say that a large number of people will be dismissed from office, and I also ask Lord Tang and the officials to make arrangements." ”
Tang Sanyong took a deep look at Wei Zhongxian, a simple little trick made the three people in front of him bow down to his orders, and he had to accept this method if he didn't accept it, involving the appointment of hundreds of officials, although the officials were anxious, they were naturally even more happy!
However, he was very jealous of Wei Zhongxian, no wonder Lord Shangshu, who had always held the wisdom bead, was so wary of this person, and the person who could make such a big wave during the Apocalypse could not be underestimated!
His expression remained unchanged, and he said, "Father-in-law is polite, where is the duty." ”
Wei Zhongxian controlled the four of them in a few words, and turned this 'emergency yamen' into his Yiyantang, and then he was not polite, and said coldly: "This matter is big, the world is terrified, the emperor and the court have ordered the miscellaneous family to end within a time limit, and the miscellaneous family has decided that when Lord Wei's article is published tomorrow, they will give a stern warning, ask the people involved in the case to surrender, and give them three days. ”
This is considered an established procedure, and several people have no opinion, raising their hands and saying, "Obey!" ”
A fierce flash flashed in Wei Zhongxian's eyes, with a cruel smile.
Three days, enough for the cabinet, the six ministries to settle those governors, governors, send them out of Beijing, once these people leave Beijing, it is the complete completion of the 'political reform', he can let go of his hands and feet!
