Chapter 535: Dismissal from office

Hearing this name, Lu Shancai's face suddenly turned pale. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Not long after, the official brought a middle-aged man in his forties to the lobby.

"Xiaguan Yangzhou Mansion has experienced Li Mingxuan, see His Royal Highness the Prince, and see the Governor!"

This person was quite calm and bowed.

"Li Mingxuan, this official asks you, who are you working under?"

The experience department is actually a very special department, and the experience of the experience department is analogous to the secretary and the like in later generations, assisting the prefect and the same governor to deal with daily affairs.

Li Mingxuan bowed.

"Lord Hui, the subordinate is under Lu Tongzhi!"

"Okay, what's your responsibility for?"

Liu Yuanlin asked again.

"Lord Hui, the lower officials are responsible for confiscating the yellow books in various places, checking the number of yellow books, and whether they are falsely reported and forged!"

Li Mingxuan replied honestly.

Liu Yuanlin suddenly slapped the stunned wood and said quickly.

"Then do you know that the yellow book in Yangzhou Mansion has a deficit of more than 40,000 households in the past few years?"

"This ...... Back to my lord, the lower officials know! ”

This time, Li Mingxuan obviously hesitated a lot, but still answered truthfully.

"If you know, why don't you report it?"

Liu Yuanlin's face turned slightly pale, and he frowned and asked.

Li Mingxuan turned his head and glanced at Lu Qingzhi and Lu Shancai, gritted his teeth and said.

"My lord, the lower officials have already told the truth to Lu Tongzhi and Lu Zhifu, but the two officials are okay, and they ordered the lower officials to count the yellow books and put them into the warehouse according to the rules, and the lower officials have to follow!"

"Okay, you step down first!"

Liu Yuanlin nodded, and ordered the official to take Li Mingxuan down, and at this moment, Lu Shancai was already pale and speechless.

"Lu Shancai, you still haven't recruited from the truth! Do you want to let this official recruit all the magistrates and counties from all over the country to the government and confront you one by one? ”

Liu Yuanlin's face sank, and he shouted.

Lu Shancai was already distracted, and under a loud shout, he couldn't hold on any longer, fell to the ground, and said in a loud voice.

"The Governor spares his life, the Governor spares his life, this ...... This is all the meaning of the prefect of Lu, and it has nothing to do with the lower officials! ”

"You...... What nonsense are you talking about?

Hearing this, Lu Qingzhi could no longer be silent, and pointed at Lu Shancai and said angrily.

"Presumptuous!"

A piercing startling sound sounded, accompanied by Liu Yuanlin's loud shout.

"Lu Qingzhi, this is the public court, the judge is the official, the official doesn't ask, you can't answer, as the prefect, don't you even understand these rules?"

"This ......"

Lu Qingzhi's face froze, and he had the heart to speak, but Liu Yuanlin had already ignored him and turned his head.

"Lu Shancai, you go on! What the hell is going on? But someone instructed you to forge the Yellow Book? ”

In fact, this is already an obvious thing, the Yellow Book is an important task of the government, and Lu Qingzhi, as the prefect, would never have been unaware if he had not been completely set aside.

Under the system of the national dynasty, it is still an important tax place for the imperial court like Yangzhou Mansion, and it is impossible for a prefect to be hollowed out!

"Back to my lord, is it...... It was the prefect Lu who instructed the lower officials, so there was no need to carefully check the yellow books in various places! ”

Lu Shancai swallowed his saliva, but in the end he still didn't hold it up, and said.

And this time Lu Qingzhi was even more angry, ignoring Liu Yuanlin's previous warning, and said angrily.

"Nonsense, it's clear that you told the official that the matter of the Yellow Book is the old rule of Yangzhou Mansion over the years, and you also persuaded the official Xiao Gui Cao to follow, but now you want to bite back?"

"Lord Governor, don't listen to this, Lord Fuzun is the prefect of Yangzhou Mansion, and the lower officials are just officials of Zuo Er, how can you influence the actions of Lord Fuzun!"

Lu Shancai was also anxious and argued.

"Enough!"

A burst of drinking echoed in the courtroom.

Lu Qingzhi and Lu Shancai looked up, but what they saw was Zhu Changluo.

To tell the truth, Zhu Changluo didn't want to interfere in today's trial process, Liu Yuanlin, as the governor of Zhejiang, is very proficient in this way, and he doesn't need to put his beak too much at all.

But at this moment, he couldn't hold back anymore!

Until this moment, these two people still have no intention of repenting, and they still think that they want to shirk each other's responsibilities, how can they look like court officials?

It is because of such officials in the Ming Dynasty who only think about promotion and shirking responsibility in their hearts that they will not be as good as day by day, and it is precisely because of the rule of such officials that the people will become more and more difficult.

"Your Highness......"

Liu Yuanlin looked at the angry Zhu Changluo, with a slight worry in his eyes.

If Zhu Changluo really opened his mouth to deal with these two people, it would really be difficult to get out, and it would not be easy to explain the emperor's side......

However, he just screamed and did not continue, and the relationship he had been getting along with him these days made him understand that no one could stop him from doing what His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was determined to do.

What's more, in the bottom of his heart, Liu Yuanlin doesn't want to see these two ugly bastards again.

Zhu Changluo didn't look back, just waved his hand lightly and said.

"This palace was ordered by the emperor to patrol Jiangsu and Zhejiang, but he didn't expect to encounter such an official who endangered the society of the country, and he was really not worthy of being a minister of the court, and now the facts of the case have been clear, Lu Qingzhi, the prefect of Yangzhou, colluded with Lu Shancai to forge the yellow book, and took up forced labor and increased service to the people, causing the people of Yangzhou to be in dire straits, and the palace must not sit idly by, come and take off Lu Qingzhi and Lu Shancai's black gauze hats, and escort them to the Criminal Department for disposal!"

After that, Zhu Changluo turned to leave, and behind him, Liu Yuanlin's respectful voice was mixed with the cheers of the people, but he couldn't hide Zhu Changluo's sigh.

Zhu Changluo suddenly understood why Zhu Yijun asked him to thoroughly investigate the Yellow Book case this time, this is to hope that he will understand how serious the rule of officials in the Ming Dynasty has become.

The palm seal official of the dignified land is so irresponsible, only knows how to fight, and in the long run, the people are under the harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes, and it is strange that they do not rebel!

Zhu Changluo changed into civilian clothes and came to the back hall, but found that Liu Yuanlin was already waiting here, and when he saw Zhu Changluo come in, his face showed a trace of worry.

"Governor Liu thinks that this palace is too impulsive today?"

Zhu Changluo smiled and asked frankly.

Liu Yuanlin did not shy away from it and said.

"Your Highness, although these two people are innocent of death, but Your Majesty has made a will, thoroughly investigate the case, do not deal with it, and wait for Your Majesty to make a decision later, Your Highness is now rashly dismissing an official position of a court official, it is really a little inappropriate!"

It is true that Lu Qingzhi and Lu Shancai are extremely evil, even if they are clear to the emperor, the end will not be better than now, but that is the emperor's disposal, and there is a difference between Zhu Changluo's unauthorized disposal.

Thunder, rain and dew are all Jun'en!

The official positions of Lu Qingzhi and Lu Shancai were granted by the emperor, so they should naturally be removed by the emperor.

Zhu Changluo's move, to say small, is impulsive and reckless, and to say big, it is suspected of trespassing!

This is not a trivial matter for a prince!

However, Zhu Changluo waved his hand and said.

"Don't worry, Lord Governor, this palace has a sense of proportion!"

Liu Yuanlin was about to say more, but he heard Wang An come in and say goodbye.

"Your Highness, Chen Shoubei has arrived!"
