"The amount of power of the Protector is too small!"

Cai Qixuan stood on the city wall and looked at the lively crowd below, and whispered with contempt.

"We're going to be fine, are we?"

Zhou Chang, who was beside him, said worriedly.

Standing here with an unobstructed view of the Chengtian Gate below, the twenty-five representatives of the four people were forced by the workers to stand there one by one with their heads down, waiting for the news from the palace. However, those brocade guards have been in for a while, and they haven't come back yet, I don't know if Her Majesty the Empress has time to summon them, in fact, the Empress will definitely not care about this kind of trivial matter, so she can only let the Lord Protector come forward to solve it. Since having a son, Her Majesty the Empress has completely become a typical example of a good wife and mother, and the government affairs of the court are basically ignored. In the past, she went to sit in the cabinet meeting when she was in charge of the country, but now she doesn't even participate in the cabinet meeting, which is quite the style of her great-ancestor Emperor Shenzong who has not been in court for decades.

In short, everything is handed over to the Lord Protector.

Although the Protector has only joined the cabinet as the chief of staff, not even the first assistant, he still has a nine-thousand-year-old Ju Banzhong to handle government affairs instead of the empress! If he doesn't get his consent in the cabinet, he just needs to go back to the palace without a seal.

This is the Ming court.

The empress is the son of heaven, and the protector of the country is the son of heaven......

Although for the vast majority of the time, Her Majesty sits in his arms.

"What can we do? After all, these idiots can't support the table, and they dare to write such a guarantee, but they don't have the knowledge, and such an obvious set can be drilled into it! ”

Cai Qixuan said disdainfully.

"But isn't Cao Rong under house arrest?"

Zhou Chang still said uneasily.

He was also a little scared at this time, after all, the Protector had already begun to take revenge, he had escaped this catastrophe, as a representative of the merchants, those workers and peasants did not ask him to write a guarantee, and it was impossible for him to write a guarantee, but who knew that the Protector Guild would not retaliate against them next?

In the final analysis, it is the protector of the country who holds the real power.

"Are you scared?"

Cai Qixuan said.

"I'm just a little worried!"

Zhou Changqiang said calmly.

"What's so scary? We are the winners of this game, Yang Qing just can't afford to lose, but the rules are set by him, we are using the rules he formulated to win him, and he can't afford to lose. Don't forget that the empress and the crown prince were all established by the Four People's Assembly, and to maintain the status of the Four People's Assembly is to safeguard the righteousness of the empress and the crown prince, if he breaks the rules, what is the righteousness of the empress and the crown prince? ”

Cai Qixuan said.

"But ......"

Zhou Chang said.

Before he could finish his sentence, a hand from behind patted him on the shoulder, and he turned back in amazement to see a brocade guard standing behind him.

"Zhou Chang?"

The latter asked with a serious face.

Zhou Chang nodded with a hint of panic.

"We are Jinyi Weibeiya, and we are ordered to arrest you for accepting bribes, this is an arrest warrant signed by the people's prosecutor, you have the right to remain silent, but everything you say will be used as evidence in court!"

The brocade guard said.

He then pulled out an arrest warrant.

Originally, the people's procurator and the judge were only responsible for dealing with the emperor, but since these two institutions were established, it was obviously idle to do this, so it was expanded to supervise and try the representatives of the four people. After all, the status of the four people's deputies is special, and they have criminal immunity, but they cannot condone violations and crimes during their term of office, but so far none of the four people's deputies have openly committed crimes, so basically people have almost forgotten the current people's procurator Huang Duanbo. As for the arrest by Jinyiwei, it is because the people's procurator has an office and does not do this at all, but they can borrow Jinyiwei at any time.

"Shuo Gong save me!"

Zhou Chang looked at Cai Qixuan in panic and said.

"Are you Cai Qixuan?"

The brocade guard looked at Cai Qixuan and said.

The latter nodded.

"That's right, someone has reported to us that you bribed the representatives of the Four Peoples and manipulated the votes of the Four Peoples Assembly, so you can also follow us to Beiya!"

The brocade guard said.

After speaking, he waved back, and the Jinyi guard behind him immediately stepped forward, first handcuffed Zhou Chang and then held down Cai Qixuan.

"You are framed, you are framed, you have no right to arrest me, civil crimes are not under the control of Jinyi Wei, if you want to arrest me, it is Ying Tianfu, I want to go to Ying Tianfu, I don't go to the wolf's den, you can't arrest me, I want to go to Ying Tianfu, I want to go to Ying Tianfu!"

Cai Qixu struggled and screamed.

"You are a lifter, included in the list of public officials of the imperial court, of course Jinyiwei has the right to manage it!"

The brocade guard said.

Dali Temple is indeed equivalent to the Supreme Court, but the local court system has not been established, so usually only officials who commit crimes will be handed over to Dali Temple for trial. Civil crimes are usually directly tried by local officials, and Dali Temple and the local prosecutors assigned to Dali Temple are only responsible for civil appeals. The Metropolitan Procuratorate has no right to judge, but those imperial histories accept all reports, whether they are for the people or for officials, in fact, they are mainly for officials, and the people have no reports, they are directly to the magistrate to complain, and the Metropolitan Procuratorate and the imperial history of the provinces, patrol the imperial history, accept the report and then be responsible for prosecuting the Dali Temple and the local prosecutors.

Jin Yiwei is special, although in recent years Jin Yiwei only arrested traitors and heresies, but the right to interrogate officials, or what is now defined as public officials, has not been abolished.

This was done by Yang Qing on purpose.

It's just that Jin Yiwei does not have the right to convict.

Jin Yiwei interrogated the officials, and then handed over the interrogation results to Dali Temple for conviction, but Jin Yiwei has made it clear that unless the crime of traitor, this crime has a wide range, including treason, espionage and other crimes involving national security, otherwise the criminal economic and other crimes of the people do not care.

So Cai Qixuan asked to go to Tianfu.

In Ying Tianfu, he will not suffer too much, although Ying Tianfu Yin will also be tortured, but it is not a terrifying wolf's den after all!

But he's a lifter.

The lifter is subsidized by the empress.

He was included in the list of public officials of the imperial court, and the empress gave him a subsidy to let him study with peace of mind before the exam so that he could rely on the middle jinshi, so he would also be within the scope of Jinyiwei's law enforcement. The hapless Cai Qixuan struggled desperately to no avail, but the brocade guards quickly handcuffed him, and then carried him and Zhou Chang towards a prisoner car. And at this moment, the city wall was already crowded because of the representatives of the four peoples, and the arrest of the two of them quickly caused a sensation, and when these brocade guards passed by, everyone looked at these two guys who were handcuffed because of bribery.

However, at this time, another team of Jinyi guards walked in front of Yan Ping.

"Yan Ping?"

Jin Yiwei, who led the team, said.

The workers immediately let go of Yan Ping, who did not see the chaos on the city wall, and he looked at the brocade guards in disbelief......

"Has Her Majesty summoned us?"

He asked cautiously.

"I think Her Majesty the Empress should not summon you again, Yan Ping, the permanent representative of the Four People's Congress, you were arrested for taking bribes, this is an arrest warrant signed by the people's prosecutor, you have the right to remain silent, but everything you say will be used as evidence in court!"

The brocade guard said with a smile.

At the same time, two brocade guards stepped forward and quickly handcuffed him.

"Representative Yan, go all the way!"

A worker next to him said with a smile and a wave of his hand.

Then there was laughter.

In the midst of laughter, the Jinyi guard continued to walk forward to the other representative of the four peoples, and then showed him the arrest warrant as well, and then the Jinyi guard handcuffed him, and he continued to the third. The remaining 20 or so representatives of the four people were in chaos, obviously they didn't expect to be waiting for this, some frightened people still wanted to run, but they were surrounded by workers, and they directly blocked him inside. And at the same time that these people were arrested, in the lively crowd behind, more Jinyi guards appeared, they walked directly to the representatives of the four people who took bribes, showed them the arrest warrants signed by the people's prosecutor, and then handcuffed them and escorted them out of the crowd in the eyes of all people.

As for those who give bribes......

This does not even need an arrest warrant from the people's procurator, and for those who are considered public officials, they are directly taken away by Jinyiwei and escorted to Beiya.

and the civil registration is the Ying Tianfu police.

Thus began the mass arrest, and in the midst of hundreds of thousands of people, accompanied by the discussion of the onlookers, more than 70 representatives of the four people, more than 200 gentry, all handcuffed, and then escorted to Yingtianfu and Jinyi Weibei Ya respectively......

The same is true for the representatives of the four peoples.

The people's procurator is only responsible for approving arrests, but interrogations are also delegated......

Well, it's commissioning.

They signed the arrest warrant and entrusted Jin Yiwei with the arrest and interrogation, and then Jin Yiwei handed over the results of the interrogation to them, and then they filed a lawsuit with the people's judge, who tried and convicted them. Of course, this is just a process, everyone knows that there is no good result when you enter the North Ya, the power of the wolf's den is terrifying to the world, even the Londoners at this time know that there is a terrible place in the Ming Dynasty, and those who enter it are equivalent to entering the hell depicted by Dante.

At this moment, Wang Fuzhi and others, who were originally sitting firmly in Diaoyutai, were directly stupid.

"Let's go, enter the palace immediately!"

Wang Fuzhi quickly came to his senses and said without hesitation.

"What about after entering the palace?"

Plug Yinxi said.

Yes, after entering the palace!

Admit defeat?

It is impossible to admit defeat by admitting defeat, which is related to a matter of principle, can we still agree to Yang Qing's Gongtian Law? Wouldn't all the efforts made during this period be in vain? If you don't admit defeat, what can you do when you enter the palace and see Yang Qing? Do you want him to release him? Since Yang Qing can let Huang Duanbo sign the arrest warrant, it means that he has conclusive evidence, Huang Duanbo is a pure hard bone, and it is impossible to get him to sign without conclusive evidence. Everyone knows his temper, he is not biased towards any side as a neutral, Yang Qing cannot get these arrest warrants without conclusive evidence, and he will not sign this guy even if he is on the neck of Huang Duanbo.

Then Yang Qing is handling the case in accordance with the law, and letting him release him is bending the law for personal gain.

Isn't that exactly what comes to him to humiliate?

Since it doesn't make a difference if you don't enter the palace when you attack, what are you doing in the palace? Do you stretch your face over and let Yang Qing hit you?

"But, we can't just turn a blind eye, can we?"

Wang Fuzhi said tangledly.

Reason told him that these people were indeed hopeless, and they had also lost their value, and the land law had been passed, and at most Yang Qing asked the Four Peoples Assembly to revote on the grounds that these people had taken bribes, but they still won the re-vote. Because most of these arrests were representatives of workers and peasants, and some representatives of merchants, there was not a single representative of the scholars, and the representatives of the scholars did not need bribes. Then the re-voting will be the representatives of the scholars of all the people, the representatives of the merchants who will add part of the losses, and the representatives of the workers and peasants who will be reduced in all their personnel, or will their side win.

"What can you do but turn a blind eye? What these people should do has been done, and the rest depends on how Yang Qing finds a way to break the game within the scope of the rules, at least for now, we have no loopholes within the scope of the rules.

Yang Qing can only wait for the next term.

However, our land law has made it clear that it cannot be overturned or amended.

Unless he forcibly modifies it.

But that's him breaking the rules, and if he does end it by breaking the rules, then it's useless for us to do anything. But the authority of the Assembly of the Four Nationalities ceased to exist, and the righteousness of the Empress and the Crown Prince ceased to exist, because they were established by a resolution that could be overturned at any time. Since the resolutions of the Four People's Congress can be overturned at any time, the throne of the empress can also be overthrown at any time.

If Yang Qing wants to uphold the unquestionable throne of the empress and his son, he must uphold the irrevocability of the resolutions of the Four People's Congress.

That's what we can really rely on.

As for these people, Yang Qing can do whatever he wants! At best, he convicted them of taking bribes, invalidated their votes, and then asked the Assembly to re-vote on the land law. We can overturn our own resolution this term, this land law is passed by us, of course we have the right to overturn and change it, but the nature of the next term will change, so we have to solve this problem in our term.

But we still won the re-vote.

You and the representatives of the scholars have no one to take bribes, and no one has accepted bribes from the remaining representatives of the merchants, you are all innocent, and Yang Qing can't do anything to you within the rules. But the number of remaining peasants' and workers' deputies is much smaller than that of you combined, and the scholars' representatives will certainly continue to vote in favor, and the merchants' representatives must also continue to maintain their alliance with the scholars' representatives because of the formation of the peasants' and workers' party. So you win the vote again, these arrested have nothing to do with the overall situation, as for those who were caught for bribery, they are at most just an exile, as long as the land law can ensure it, they will be exiled!

They themselves will accept it. ”

Plug Yinxi said.

This guy is worthy of being the best strategist in Nanming, and he recognized the situation at once, they really have nothing else to rely on, that is, the relationship between the Four People's Assembly and the empress and the crown prince, if the resolution of the Four People's Congress can be overturned, then the empress and the crown prince can also be overthrown at any time.

They were established by the Four People's Congress.

Since other resolutions of the Four People's Congresses can be overturned, so can they, of course.

The throne faded.

However, he still forgot about it...... ()
