Chapter 261: Turmoil in the Imperial Court
These movements are almost the same, they are all written about one thing, which makes Xiao Chumo wonder, what does this mean? Why did Situ Qin let the ministers do this, this is clearly to tell the emperor that he has controlled the entire imperial court.
"I can't figure it out, why is he like this?" The little emperor's eyes were full of doubts, staring at these twists and turns.
"What does the emperor want to do?" Xiao Chumo asked.
"I don't know, if only a few of me can directly remove the official position, now it's not easy to start." The little emperor's face was rarely embarrassed.
"This may be Situ Qin's intention, whether you deal with it or not, it will be beneficial to him, if you deal with it, the Manchu Dynasty civil and military will not be able to escape, if you don't deal with it, I am afraid it will be more blatant." Xiao Chumo analyzed.
"Well, I also expected that I have something that will require the regent's help." The little emperor looked at Xiao Chumo and said.
So the two of them discussed for a long time in this imperial study, and waited until nightfall, this Xiao Chumo remembered Yu Panxi at home and hurriedly went out of the palace gate.
Xiao Chumo returned to the mansion, Yu Panxi's mother and son were waiting for him to come back for dinner, seeing that Xiao Chumo was finally back, Xiao Douding happily greeted him, grabbed Xiao Chumo's hand and walked inside.
"Let's eat." Xiao Chumo rubbed Xiao Douding's head, sat down and spoke, so the family of three began to eat and chat. Although many people are silent about eating, Yu Panxi feels that this is not good, so every time they eat, the family of three is happy, talking and laughing.
Time flies, and it has been more than half a month since he came back from Xiyuan, during this period, Xiao Chumo shuttled between the court and the army every day, and he didn't even have time to go home for dinner.
On this day, Yu Panxi's mother and son had lunch, but they saw Xiao Chumo coming over in a chic manner.
"Nothing to do today?" Yu Panxi looked at Xiao Chumo who came over and said.
"Well, that's pretty much done." Xiao Chumo said and stretched out his hand and grabbed Yu Panxi's waist, Yu Panxi came out with his free hand and beat Xiao Chumo.
"In broad daylight, you ......," Yu Panxi said intermittently.
"What I want, I just want to hug you." Xiao Chumo smiled ambiguously, and Yu Panxi blushed in embarrassment.
"Is there anything going on in the court?" Yu Panxi changed the subject and asked.
"Well, it's basically fine." Xiao Chumo nodded.
"What does the little emperor do with those ministers?" Yu Panxi asked curiously.
"He divided the ministers of the court and dealt with them." Xiao Chumo saw that Yu Panxi didn't understand, and continued.
"Those ministers who are really good friends with Situ Qin have been investigated and dealt with by the emperor, and those ministers who have been controlled, the little emperor directly announced his crimes, which are nothing more than some corruption and perversion of the law, the circumstances are light, and the circumstances are serious, and they are directly dismissed and investigated, but fortunately, they are all light, and after being announced by the emperor, they no longer have to hide, and they are also out of the control of the Situ family."
Xiao Chumo said, Yu Panxi smiled with satisfaction.
"The method is not bad, that is, to get rid of the corrupt officials, there is no need to worry that there is no one available in the DPRK." Yu Panxi said with satisfaction.
"Well, during this time, I am collecting evidence of corruption and looting by the ministers, and it will be over today." Xiao Chumo said a little tiredly, in the past half month, he has been arranging for people to check these evidences, and some even need him to go out in person.
"With so many ministers, it's up to you to investigate?" Yu Panxi looked at Xiao Chumo in surprise.
"Well, there are no credible and usable talents in the DPRK and China for the time being." Xiao Chumo said.
"......" Yu Panxi shook his head helplessly.
So on the morning of the second day, some ministers in the court shouted that they were wronged, and when they saw the iron-like evidence and witnesses, the people who were wronged could no longer shout, and looked at the prime minister, in order to help, and this, in the heart of Situ Qin, how could he save it, so after a while, the three ministers had been executed, and Situ Qin was secretly happy in his heart.
At this time, everyone in the court was in danger, and the ministers were panicked, until Situ Qin found out that after the execution of the five ministers, it was changed to a fine, and the most serious thing was to confiscate part of the family property, Situ Qin found that the situation was not good, and after thinking about the five ministers who died, his face changed, and these five were all ministers who had been following him.
Originally, Situ Qin thought that those five were just the beginning, and the little emperor would definitely continue to deal with them, not only these five people, but also the people disposed of by the little emperor had real evidence, which made Situ Qin feel slapped in the face again.
Situ Qin originally planned to let the people spread the word that the little emperor was a brutal and inhumane tyrant, so as to pave the way for his son and kill the emperor justifiably for his son.
As a result, he miscalculated, and this Situ Qin instantly felt that this little emperor was difficult to deal with.
So early in the morning, all the ministers breathed a long sigh of relief in their hearts, seeing that Situ Qin avoided him from a distance and no longer approached him, these ministers understood what was going on in their hearts.
It is precisely because of these actions of Situ Qin that the little emperor is powerful, and the ministers who deal with him are all people who are familiar with the prime minister, and everyone is like a mirror in their hearts, and they don't understand anything.
Situ Qin saw that the bureau he set up was easily broken by the emperor, and now even these ministers who used to scold him looked like they couldn't avoid it, and he was annoyed, but thinking about the letter his son brought back, he didn't mind going back to the house.
In the imperial study, the little emperor sat at the desk expressionlessly, flipping through the folds and looking at it.
"Today, thanks to the evidence collected by the regent, I will not end up as a faint king and a tyrant." The little emperor raised his head, looked at Xiao Chumo seriously and said.
"I'm afraid that old horseman won't be able to make a wave again." Xiao Chumo nodded, and then said. "I don't know what the emperor will do next?"
"Wait and see what happens, and wait for Situ Ye to come back." The little emperor looked at the outside of the imperial book house at the moment, as if he was thinking about something.
"Well, be careful." Xiao Chumo put down this sentence and walked towards the outside of the imperial study, the little emperor's thoughts coincided with him, so should he take off his armor and return to the field.
Thinking of the sweet days spent by a family of three in Xiyuan, Xiao Chumo felt that he had too little time to accompany Yu Panxi's mother and son recently, so he couldn't help but speed up his pace and walked towards the carriage.
Xiao Chumo returned to the mansion and told Yu Panxi's mother and son everything about the court.
"Has Daddy been empty lately?" Xiao Douding's focus was not on that at all, and he asked happily.
"Well, Daddy will have to be idle for at least a while." Xiao Chumo said.
"Daddy, can we go out and play?" Xiao Douding also wants to go to Xiyuan to play.
"Okay, let's find a time." Xiao Chumo agreed. Yu Panxi looked at the father and son from the side, and was also full of smiles. She found that since Xiao Douding came back, she smiled a lot, and she was afraid of wrinkles.
