After thinking about Timur's very sudden but expected military action, Yun Xi saw Wang Xi at a glance, and sat down to talk to him casually, but he didn't expect Wang Xi to report the matter to him very seriously. He even used the word 'Your Majesty' instead of the word 'official' that is now used by subordinates in the palace.

"Your Majesty, early this morning, the servant and his brother went out to buy some things in the bazaar and came back, and they happened to meet Xu Jingchang Xu, the commander of Xu Jingchang, who came to the palace to see Concubine Chen. He went to the barracks about early in the morning to have something to do, so when he came to the palace, he was in a hurry, and he didn't take the main road and rode a few retinues from the back road to the palace. ”

"It happened that when I crossed an intersection, an ox cart ran from the side, and when Commander Xu saw the ox cart, it was too late to stop the horse, so he hit it directly."

"It was probably a coincidence that the horse's head hit the man driving the ox cart directly, and the man was bleeding and dying at the sight of it. But Commander Xu was in a hurry, leaving two entourages to deal with the follow-up matters, and drove away on his horse. It would be nice to say if this person came back to life in the end, but Lang Zhong couldn't be saved and died. ”

"The slave doesn't know much about what happened next, probably because the family asked for too much money, anyway, the person's family made a fuss and wanted to go to the Yamen of Jiangning County to complain; The attitude of the two servants of the Xu family was also a little arrogant, and one of them said: "No matter where you go to sue, our young master has just made a great contribution to the Ming Dynasty, and you can't win!" ’”

"The people present immediately became angry, and went to the yamen of Jiangning County with the family, even if today is not the day of the announcement, they have to sue."

"The history of Jiangning County, who was in charge of the prison, discussed with the county magistrate Zhou Yuan, and he could only accept the case and send someone to the Wei State Mansion to issue a summons. The men of the Wei Mansion did not dare to act rashly, but just deduced that the masters of the family were not there now, and asked them to come again tomorrow to deliver the summons. The police of the county government did not dare to offend the Wei State Mansion, so they had to go back with the summons. ”

"Xu Jingchang! You can't let me save a snack! After listening to Wang Xi's retelling of the matter, Yun Xi shouted a little angrily.

When he went to court today, he just praised Xu Jingchang and asked the ministers to learn from him, but he came out like this, didn't it make him faceless!

scolded Xu Jingchang himself a few words, and Yun Xi reprimanded again: "The two servants he left behind are too, since they are staying to deal with the aftermath, don't be so arrogant, isn't this a smear for the Duke of Wei!" The reputation of the Duke of Wei among the people in the capital has always been good, and this time it will be buried by the two of them. ”

"Also, who is the person in charge of the Xu family's affairs now? Xu Huizu's wife? Or Xu Zengshou's wife? The governance of the family is so lax! ”

After scolding most of the Xu family, Yun Xi sat down and thought about how to understand this matter.

It is still the early years of the founding of the People's Republic of China, and it is of course not a fact to say that the Xungui family has no bad deeds, but the blatant killing of ordinary people has not happened in the capital. Even if Lan Zhen's son Lan Mingxuan snatched an antique and killed someone a few years ago, it was that person who couldn't think of committing suicide, not that he killed someone.

Although the death of someone this time was an accident, the civil officials in the court are likely to make a big fuss about it. Since he succeeded to the throne in the past few years, because of the continuous war, the status of military generals is similar to that of civilian officials, but Zhu Yuanzhang's original military general rank is inflated, at least one level higher than the same civilian official, making civilian officials shorter than military generals, of course, civil officials are not satisfied, looking for suitable opportunities to deal with military generals at any time, and the impeachment wave in the early third year of Jianye was caused by this. It is difficult to guarantee that no civilian officials will take the opportunity to make trouble this time.

Thinking of this, Yun Xi had a headache. It was not so easy to appease the grievances of the civilian officials, and he did not have anything important enough to divert their attention right now.

Yun Xi couldn't help but scold Xu Jingchang a few more words, and then said to Wang Xi: "You immediately send someone to send a message to Jian Yi and Huang Huai,......, and ask them to pick out a few things that are not big or small to report in the court tomorrow morning." "Now it's getting late, the palace door is locked, although he can announce them to the palace to discuss, but in the middle of the night to announce the official into the palace, tomorrow morning may be rumored that something happened, maybe even the rumor that the prince has already died, he still decided not to do this, in the early court to delay the matter, wait for the court to discuss with the ministers.

"Also, send a letter to Xu Jingchang, telling him that this matter must not be neglected, it must be properly handled, and no matter what he does, I must let the family withdraw the case."

If it were an ordinary noble, he wouldn't care so much about this matter, and he would let Youji do what to do; But Xu Jingchang is the person he has just praised, and letting Jingchang have to lose his official position in the impeachment of civil officials will damage his prestige; Besides, there is also the face of Miaojin in the palace.

Wang Xi agreed, turned around and went down to order a few guards on duty to pass on the emperor's message. It took a while to return.

Yun Xi thought about the matter for a while, and worked out a few ways to deal with the past and wrote them down on paper.

He raised his head again and commanded Wang Xi a few words, and Wang Xi agreed one by one.

After saying this, Yun Xi was about to go back to rest, when he suddenly remembered what he said at the beginning, and asked, "You said that there are two things to report to me, and what is the other thing?" It can't be the bad deeds of another noble son. ”

"Official, that's not the case. It's another thing. Wang Xi then talked about it.

Yun Xi listened to it and said with a smile: "It turns out that this is such a thing, it is really interesting." It occurred to him that he had wanted to do a reform that he had wanted to do for a long time, but it had not been implemented because there was no good solution. But with that, the reforms he wants to do can be implemented.

"Wang Xi, you write it down, and after I have dealt with Xu Jingchang's matter, remind me to deal with this matter." Yun Xi commanded.

"Yes, official."

……

……

On the second day, someone really impeached Xu Jingchang. Although the capital is large, it is only a city, and what happened is that everyone is resentful of the powerful oppression of the people, so it was almost spread throughout the city the next morning, and many civil officials learned of this incident and impeached Xu Jingchang one after another. There are also some civil officials who, as they did two years ago, impeached many of the sons of noble families, exposed their many misdeeds, and asked for permission to punish them.

Yun Xi naturally can't go without punishment at all. He ordered Xu Jingchang to lose a lot of money to the family, and he was very selfless and ordered the Metropolitan Procuratorate to formulate the disposal of Xu Jingchang, and after the disposal method was formulated, Xu Jingchang was reduced on the grounds that Xu Jingchang was a meritorious minister of the Ming Dynasty; For the children of other powerful people who were exposed, he mostly dealt with them in the same way.

Then he was about to use the method he had already devised to make the impeachment wave dissipate, and suddenly realized that this time was different from the last time.
