Chapter 167: The Storm Rises and Clouds Three

"The minister seconded the proposal, don't be disrespectful!"

"The minister seconded the proposal!"

"The old minister seconded the proposal!"

Emperor Rong Jing looked at most of the officials below who seconded the proposal, and was a little pleased, and said to Chang Quan, "Roast with fire!" ”

Song Shaochuan saw that the officials seconded the proposal one after another, and he felt that it was about to be finished, and he didn't want to hear that Emperor Rongjing allowed him to try again, so he kindled his hope again, and his face showed joy. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Chang Quan couldn't understand the master's thoughts, and the sky was unpredictable, so he called the little eunuch to put on the lamp and candle.

Emperor Rong Jing took the Tianjin Book from Chang Quan's hand and personally placed it on the candle.

All the courtiers stretched their necks and looked upward.

Now the weather outside is starting to get a little overcast, and the clouds are thick.

I saw that the brocade book on the candle did not show the slightest sign of being burned or ignited.

Emperor Rong Jing brought the brocade book a little closer, and the hearts of the ministers were a little more raised, and they watched with bated breath, and they didn't dare to breathe. There were a few older ministers who were even more sick and wheezing and coughing.

After waiting for a quarter of an hour, the brocade book still showed a trace of being damaged by the fire, and Emperor Rong Jing took the brocade book back into his hand, with a smile in his eyes, knowing that this must be the result.

Emperor Rong Jing now admires the person behind the scenes, with such a peculiar brocade book, this person should also be extraordinary, and his starting point is even more intriguing!

Emperor Rongjing lifted the brocade book to a high place and said to the ministers, "What do you think, Aiqing? ”

"Long live the divine power of heaven, Tianjin is in the world, indicating the prosperity of our dynasty, only occasionally flawed, long live can be ordered to be strictly investigated and punished, and the fair exchange of copper and silver for the people is also reinforced, and the old system is innovated, which can ensure the peace of the prosperous world." The senior scholar has been the first to sing the praises.

The courtiers all secretly scolded Gao Jiwen in their hearts for his sharp mouth, and he was used to seeing stitches and needles, and there was no one who was filming this sycophant, but he couldn't stop talking. In any case, now this Tianjin Book can only be determined as a godsend, and there is nothing to dispute, and this matter will also go down in history.

For a time, the voices of praise were endless, and the atmosphere in the hall was unprecedentedly warm.

Emperor Rongjing saw that no one below dared to object, and the dragon's heart was happy. "Do you still have a play?"

Tianjinshu has been decided, then the following measures can be implemented by taking advantage of the trend, cleaning up corrupt and profit-making officials is also an important part, not only to reform the system of minting money, but also to rectify the rule of officials, if the top is not right, the bottom will be oblique, and if the officials are not right, the people will be chaotic.

To rectify corruption and reform the rule of officials, it is necessary to take a heavy fist!

Chen Qizheng, the head of the household, did not hesitate, he stood up first, and said, "The minister has a play!" Qin Lingfang, the head of the household, has this act of smelting copper coins privately, and the minister has ordered someone to verify it, and now reports it to Long live, please long live it according to the law. ”

Emperor Rong Jing saw that someone had already stood up to speak, nodded, and asked, "Oh, Aiqing is not slow!" Has it been verified that this person is making a profit? ”

"Back to long live, there have been more than 200,000 taels of silver for the verified profits, and only two foundry workshops in the capital and its surroundings, and five copper shops for private sale. This is only the result of the minister's private investigation, and other profits need to be strictly investigated to know the specific amount. Long live the Holy Judgment, please. ”

Chen Shangshu truthfully stated what he had verified, and instead of Qin Lingfang being found out by the emperor and implicating him, it was better for him to clear up the relationship first and take the initiative to participate.

Qin Lingfang's result was the same, but he would take care of his people after that.

Emperor Rong Jing sneered, "It's just such a household head, he dares to act like this, and the profits are huge, which makes me feel shocked!" ”

Emperor Rong Jing pointed to the courtiers below and said solemnly, "What's the use of raising you?" Holding the court's money and the people's taxes, what I do is ashamed of the court and harms the people, which is really outrageous, I will severely punish and never tolerate it! Investigate, investigate, and punish severely according to the law! Is the criminal department secretary Charzican be in? Feng Zhengqi of Dali Temple, Cai Ruzhong of the Metropolitan Procuratorate? ”

The three of them lined up together, "The minister is here!" ”

"Check, investigate!"

Emperor Rong Jing gave an order, and the tone for dealing with the officials' participation in this matter had basically been determined, and suddenly there were officials with faces as if they were dirty.

"Commandment!" Charqi, Feng Zhengqi, and Cai Ruzhong shouted the order and retreated to their respective positions.

"If the rule of the household department is not strict, he will be fined for one year!" Emperor Rong Jing then gave the order.

"Thanksgiving!" Chen Qizheng knew that he was being punished lightly, and in the current unstoppable situation, Emperor Rong Jing gave himself face. Collect the deficit of the household department, I have to be more attentive, and I want to save the emperor's heart!

Haijing belongs to the ministers who dare to write outright in the imperial history, and has drafted the chapter according to the news obtained from the report, and has long been unable to bear it, at this time the drafting of the recital fold was taken out, and the prelude said, "Long live, the minister impeached Zhou Ronghua of Taichang Temple, Song Yuan of the Ministry of Rites, Song Yuan, Shuntianfu Tong sentenced Wang Qichang and others, all of whom operated molten money casters, and even more privately cast weapons, illegally sold, and caused chaos to the court, and the ministers asked for strict investigation and punishment."

There are also Cao family firms, Jinyuan firms, etc., and a number of copper firms involved, colluding with officials, making a huge profit of one million taels, and the ministers asked them to be confiscated and severely punished. ”

Emperor Rong Jing listened to Cao Yushi's report, and for what Qian Feng said, the person behind this incident was Cao Jing, and Emperor Rong Jing did not approve of it, and his intuition would not be him. This person needs to be checked again.

When Young Master Song said his son's name to Cao Jing, he knew that things were going to be bad, and he was sweating profusely like rain.

This matter is not only related to his own government and family, but also to the mother and the three princes in the palace, he can't give up easily, it seems that he can only plead with the emperor through his mother.

There is the matter of Tianjinshu in front of him, and at this time, the three princes and the family can no longer speak out.

Su He, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, narrowed his eyes slightly, the corners of his mouth rose, the old god was there, very calm, he didn't want to go through the mixed water this time, he should seek stability now, and when he was cleaned, he planned his own people to take the position.

Yin Lu Fugui of Shuntian Mansion saw that there was indeed a book in the imperial history to report to the subordinate officials of Shuntian Mansion, and sighed, Hubu Shangshu was an old subordinate of the emperor, and he exposed his subordinates, and the emperor's punishment gave him a lot of face. I don't think I have that much face.

The greater the responsibility of the subordinates, the heavier the responsibility of the superiors for negligence.

Lu Fugui came out and said, "The minister has been charged with investigating the subordinate officials, and the government has Han Wenyi and Wang Qichang who have been sentenced, and the two of them have also been deceived by the Qingkemen below, and they have violated the law under the banner of the two of them, and now the people involved in the case have been taken down and put in prison, and they will be investigated and punished." and confiscated 820,000 taels of illegal profits, three foundry workshops, and more than a dozen grange shops and properties, all of which will be confiscated and handed over to the household department. ”

Now Lu Fugui can only take the initiative to attack, divert his attention, strive not to be angered by Emperor Rongjing, and then seek the emperor's lenient punishment for the two.

Emperor Rong Jing's eyes flashed fiercely, and people couldn't hear the joy and anger and asked, "Is the report true?" ”

Lu Fugui chuckled in his heart, and had some bad premonitions.
