Chapter 525: Winning the Throne with Gold
"Your Majesty, this is a false accusation, please be aware of it!" The county lord of Qinghe was afraid.
"Lord Qinghe, Lord Feng Tianwei, the Shangshu of the Criminal Department, and Lord Lu Tianhu of the Yushitai are the pillars of our upright country, you are so red-mouthed and white-toothed to deny the results of the investigation of the two adults, you are despising the national law of Emperor Taizu!" I shouted.
The stupid woman of the county lord of Qinghe wants to avenge her husband, and she should also go to find out what kind of black thing her husband of the governor of the river peeled off the outer layer of human skin! If Bu Shiren hadn't died, at least I would have gotten the evidence at that time, and I would have removed him from his post on the spot and put him in prison!
"Your Majesty, the ministers of the Zhou Dynasty first had this music, Bu Shiren was corrupt during his tenure as the governor of the river, and there were many lawlessness, and the ministers listed detailed rules in the rules, please review them one by one!"
The guys from Yushitai listened to what I said, and dared to love the county lord of Qinghe and wanted to slander Yushitai, so he immediately decided that someone jumped out and fell into the well for Bu Shiren.
"The Governor of the River has died, and the case will be tried by the Dali Temple later! Imperial aunt, I know that your husband is very uncomfortable when you die, please mourn and change, come here, please go back and rest! "Emperor Chongning said.
"Su Yipin, do you still have something to say about the case of dumping corpses in Qinglonghe?" Emperor Chongning saw that the leader of the Qinghe County Lord had folded, and the momentum of the other ladies weakened instantly, and his meaning was probably to ask me to go to the next city.
The Qinglonghe corpse dumping case is a scandal in the world in the era of King Chu, and it must not be made public, but King Jin stepped on the body of King Chu to ascend the throne, and the scandal of his predecessor is a good thing for him.
I guess Emperor Chongning wants me to make the Qinglonghe case public thoroughly, so that I can take the opportunity to regain the titles that have been given to these ladies and their families, because the country has been supporting them for so many years because of the scandal of their husbands, and their merits in southern Xinjiang have also been compensated, and it is time to take it back.
In fact, the Qinglonghe corpse dumping case was handled very aggressively at that time, and I was also angry in my heart, I think the grievances of the common people should be known to the whole world, not to mention that many of the families of the bitter masters in the Qinglonghe corpse dumping case are still in my Qianlongwei, although they are scattered and entered the Fire Lotus Sect, I can't make them chill.
"Your Majesty, I ask Your Majesty to issue a clear decree to publicly try the case of the Qinglong River throwing corpses! Although Mo Qinglong, the commander of the Qinglong Water Division, and others have the intention of being loyal to the country, they also have the great evil of forcing countless unjust souls to kill people with care! Claim their family titles and the title of Lady of the Commandment! It's also fair in the world! ”
I shouted.
"Your Majesty, the minister seconded the proposal! The Criminal Department has the detailed truth of the Qinglong River corpse dumping case! "The Qiuguan adults of the Criminal Department immediately supported me, but they could only manage to investigate the case.
"Your Majesty, the minister also seconded the proposal! Lord Lu Tianhu also wrote an abridgement of the Qinglonghe corpse dumping case, we can review it against each other, those who have been wronged can be rehabilitated, and those who have not been wronged please pursue their titles! "Yushi Zhou Chaoxian seems to be the backbone of Yushitai, and he supports me in pursuing those commandments.
"Your Majesty, the concubines and others have been wronged!" A group of ladies were completely dumbfounded, and they couldn't imagine that dozens of people joined forces to sue Su Yipin, and they actually broke the leader of the county lord of Qinghe first, and now the bad luck fell on them again.
"This matter is very important, involving many princes and nobles of this dynasty! The Ministry of Death and Punishment, Dali Temple and Yushitai will try the Qinglonghe corpse throwing case, and finally announce the results of the review to the world! Guilty family members take the knighthood! There is also a great demotion to the knight! Royal Foresters, please go down to the officials and their families involved! ”
Emperor Chongning was actually secretly refreshed, he had long known that someone would make it difficult to concoct Su Yipin today, and many people in the Qinglonghe corpse dumping case were posthumously awarded knighthoods afterwards, he had long wanted to take the opportunity to take it away, but now he did it perfectly with Su Yipin's hands, and he didn't even leave a little room for criticism.
I listened to Emperor Chongning take my suggestion almost in the blink of an eye, and I am even more convinced that my judgment is right, Emperor Chongning is indeed deliberately cutting the domain, these shameless nobles have made future generations become lords for many years because of the tyranny of the Qinglong River corpse dumping case, and it is time to repay the debt.
The third uncle Su Wen, that old fox is Emperor Chongning's favorite minister, no wonder I asked for him, he did not hesitate to support me to deal with the emperor's lineage, he dared to guess Emperor Chongning's thoughts, and he was afraid that Feiyuwei and Dongchang spies would eavesdrop, so he couldn't tell me directly.
*************************************************
"Your Majesty, these many lords and nobles are the pillars of the country, if they are deposed because of a small Qinglonghe corpse dumping case, I am afraid that many lords and nobles will not be convinced, and please keep people under the knife of Your Majesty!" Chang Xinhou had no choice but to stand up and plead.
He is the main messenger, and others are likely to bite him if they are in a hurry, rather than passively waiting to be dragged into the water, it is better to take the initiative to intercede, he knows that Emperor Chongning's move is more powerful.
Really all deposed, Emperor Chongning still doesn't dare! The forces behind so many lords are still huge, and if they are collectively deposed, they will force these people to the kings of Qin and Qi.
"What Chang Xinhou said is reasonable! You have a good relationship with the princes, so you will inform them for me, after investigating the case of the corpse dumping in the Qinglong River, they will all be demoted to the rank of raider, and they will sacrifice a full inch of gold to the court at the temple festival every year, otherwise they will be deposed! "Emperor Chongning said.
As soon as I heard about the gold, I understood what was going on, this regulation was still proposed by Emperor Nalan Yuan of Qianyuan, but at that time, the princes of the four major towns were powerful, and no one paid attention to them, and now Emperor Chongning's family is dominant, even if it is to deal with the face project, King Qin and King Qi are not easy to oppose.
And the nobles who were facing the deprivation of the knighthood had no chance to say NO, so that the gold system could be promoted.
To put it bluntly, the local vassal kings and princes are required to send money to the court to keep the wealth, but this is usually not much at first, and the number will become larger and larger later.
The fundamental purpose of the gold is to collect all the financial power of the princes to the central government, there is no money, and the princes have been comfortable for too long, unlike the founding fathers who led troops to fight in battle, and the soldiers refused to serve, and the so-called vassal princes were finally left with only a false name.
As for when to get rid of this false name, it all depends on the emperor's mood, and the size and style of the gold are all controlled by the central government, even if you send a sufficient amount of gold to the court, as long as the emperor wants to find fault, saying that the gold sent is not the size or style, you can take the title and dismiss the official.
At this time, Emperor Chongning suddenly brought up the matter of gold again, obviously after careful consideration, and the timing he threw it out was too coincidental.
This time, a large number of nobles were affected by the Qinglonghe corpse throwing case, and these people naturally did not dare to oppose it, and they were the first batch of guinea pigs, and other princes could not oppose it.
Emperor Chongning's main focus now is on cutting the feudal domain, and the reform of internal affairs is only afraid that it will not be in his consideration for the time being, and Feihong, a seriously ill country, is only afraid that there will be chaos. I'm worried.
