Chapter 85 is above board

Yue Su's sharp words made Bai Yu speechless. However, the old guy also knows Lord Yue, and knows that Lord Yue will never agree easily, and Bai Yu is thinking about countermeasures all the way from Beijing.

Seeing that Yue Su had said it to death now, Bai Yu gritted his teeth, stopped crying, and said: "My lord, Bai Yu's net worth and life are nothing, but have you ever thought about it, what kind of uproar will be caused by this case, and how will it end up as adults?" The officials who depended on the lords, including no less than twenty people, all received the benefits of the Jin merchants, and their official positions were large and small, but they had real power. If adults really enforce the law impartially, wouldn't it be tantamount to folding their wings? Now that Han Yi has returned to Beijing and served as the first assistant, the officials of the Donglin Party are eager to try, waiting for the opportunity to make a comeback. If the status quo is maintained, the Donglin Party will have no chance, but if the adults make things bigger, the Donglin Party will never miss the opportunity and will definitely fight back with all their might. Adults should be able to imagine what the situation will be. Also, my Ming Dynasty has internal and external troubles, and I can't afford to toss it anymore, and I hope that my lord can focus on the overall situation, and don't ignore the country and society for the sake of his own name! ”

For the sake of his son, Bai Yu also fought hard, and dared to say anything. But what he said is true.

Yue Su smiled slightly, nodded, and said, "Bai Yu, what you analyzed is not bad at all, it seems that you came prepared, and when you saw that you couldn't cry, you had a showdown with me." You are very sensible, you know the general situation very well, and you also know that my Ming Dynasty has internal and external troubles. But this official now wants to ask you, when you received the money from the Jin merchants, did you ever think about the Ming Dynasty's Jiangshan Sheji, did you think about the overall situation? The so-called courtesy is more than what people want, the sky can not be in vain, you are also full of poetry and books, through the wind and waves, will you not know this truth. Did the Jin Chamber of Commerce send you silver for no reason? You also have the courage to take it! Don't be full of righteousness in front of me, you must know that this official does not eat this set! The Jin merchants are collaborating with the enemy and harming the country, and this official tells you that they will not only die, but also die miserably! As for the officials in the DPRK and China, how to deal with them, then you don't have to worry about it! ”

"Lord Yue, do you think that if you take it lightly, those officials of the Donglin Party will sit idly by? They have Han Yi behind their backs, and they will definitely do their best to impeach the adult, and if they are unfair, the adult's name will be ......."

"That's it!" Without waiting for Bai Yu to finish speaking, Yue Su broke off, laughed, and said coldly: "Bai Yu, didn't you just say that this official should not care about personal name clearance, and focus on the overall situation?" Why are you worried about clearing the name of the official again? I think it's true that you care about the official and the Ming Dynasty, and it's true that you care about your son's life. This official might as well tell you today, no matter what, I will kill those Jin merchants, not only them, but their full door, I will also leave no chickens and dogs for killing! Use the lives of these people to remind the profiteers of the world that if anyone dares to only care about their own interests and ignore the laws of the court, their fate will be the same! ”

After saying that, Yue Su stood up and shouted loudly, "Where is the golden cicada? ”

"The subordinates are here!" Jin Chan and Tie Qiu were standing guard outside the hall, and when they heard Yue Su's call, Jin Chan said yes and walked in.

"Take Lord Bai to the guest room to rest, so that he can say hello, but there must be someone by his side at any time, and he is not allowed to leave without the permission of the official. All those who came with him outside were invited to come in and be well served. ”

After Yue Su finished speaking, he flicked his sleeves and walked towards the outside of the hall.

As soon as Bai Yu heard Yue Su's order, he hurriedly shouted, "My lord, you can't do this...... I'm a Cabinet Minister...... You don't have the right to put me under house arrest......"

But Lord Yue still paid attention to him, walked out of the side hall, and went directly to the study. Jin Chan walked to Bai Yu's side, smiled slightly, and said, "Lord Bai, please." ”

"Alas......" Bai Yu was also helpless, so he could only sigh.

Not to mention that Bai Yu followed Jin Chan to rest, just talking about Yue Su, after a while, he came to the study.

He pushed them away, Jiang Jie and Wu Sinan both sat down, and when they saw Yue Su coming in, they hurriedly got up and saluted. Yue Su nodded slightly, and said, "No need to be polite, sit ......"

As he spoke, he walked straight to the back of the desk and sat down.

Jiang Jie and Wu Sinan waited until Yue Su sat down before they sat down. Then, I heard Yue Su say: "Taixie, the person who just sent the name post to ask to see me, do you know who it is?" ”

"I don't know about the lower officials, but I guess it should be an official who has a deep relationship with adults." Wu Sinan said.

Yue Su didn't speak, Jiang Jie naturally wouldn't show Wu Sinan the name post, and when Yue Su went to see Bai Yu, the two of them came to the study to wait. Both of them were sitting with their hands down, but they didn't say anything, Wu Sinan's heart kept guessing, who would be the person? Of course, he will inevitably feel that Yue Su is not at ease with himself if he doesn't tell him the name and surname of the person who came.

At the moment, Yue Su asked him to guess, Wu Sinan was not stupid, and said the answer directly, although he was not known by the surname, he could probably think of it.

Yue Su nodded and said, "Taixie guessed well, the person who came did have a deep friendship with me, the name Bai Yu, Taixie should know." ”

"Lord Bai is a cabinet scholar, so the lower officials have naturally heard of it." Seeing that Yue Su did not hide it, and told the truth about the names and surnames of future people, Wu Sinan was also relieved, it turned out that Lord Yue did not treat himself as an outsider, but just wanted to test his own vision.

"It's really not what Mr. Jiang expected, the person who came out for the Jin merchants does have a bit of weight, and he is still an official who has a deep friendship with me. It seems that there are a lot of officials involved in the case this time, Mr. Jiang, can you guess what Bai Yu told me? Yue Su said calmly.

"If the subordinates guess correctly, Bai Yu will naturally come to intercede for Jin Shang. But Lord Bai should understand the temper of the adult, such an important case will definitely not be tolerated, and the Jin Shang who is the enemy will definitely be killed. Therefore, his subordinates thought that Lord Bai should not be stupid enough to stand up for Jin Shang, and it was very likely that he asked the Lord to show mercy to his subordinates, and to know the situation between the DPRK and China to the Lord, hoping to take it lightly. Jiang Jie said.

"Mr. guessed well, he did analyze the situation between the DPRK and China for me, hoping that I could make a big deal small, but there is one thing that Mr. didn't expect, that is, Bai Yu not only wanted to excuse himself, but also wanted me to let Fan Yongdou and them go." Yue Su said with a smile.

"Oh? How could Lord Bai be stupid to this extent, he should be able to think that even if your lord could take care of some officials because of the situation in the court, it would be impossible for him to show mercy to these businessmen who were enemies. Jiang Jie said with some confusion.

"This is because his son is in the hands of others, alas, ......" Yue Su sighed and said: "It is also human nature for a father to save his son's life, but if he knew today, why bother in the first place." Jin Shang must die, we don't have to study it anymore, it's just that this case is too big, and it will affect the whole body, so it's best to think of a safe way and not make any big mess. Sir, you are resourceful, could you please analyze it again? ”

"We are not sure who the officials involved in the case are at the moment, but it is easy to know everything, and the subordinates think that it is best to make the final decision after all the people involved in the case are mastered. The Jin merchants had already promised to confess before, so to speak, they had no choice but not to confess. But the key is only how the adults want to judge. Is it a public trial, or a secret trial? Jiang Jie said.

There is a big difference between a public trial and a secret trial. The trial is open and fair, and nothing can be said in the future. But the secret trial is different, God knows if you have done anything behind your back, and it will be criticized a lot in the future, and it will inevitably be criticized. However, with Lord Yue's current status, even if he really tried it in private and shielded someone, at most he would be criticized, and no one could tell Lord Yue what to do.

Yue Su thought for a while and said, "It's really inappropriate to interrogate in private, and at this time, even if I deal with it fairly, I will be criticized." Anyway, I don't plan to appease anyone, so let's be above board. ”

"Subordinates obey." Jiang Jie stood up, bowed, and then said: "The things of the world, if you are selfish, are naturally complicated, if you are above board, then everything will fall into place." In this case, if the adults have selfish thoughts and take the opportunity to suppress dissidents, in the end it will inevitably be turbulent in the government and the opposition, and all officials will not be convinced. Although the three parties of Qi, Chu and Zhejiang have been at odds with adults, they should work together if the adults take the opportunity to suppress them, and it will inevitably unite the three parties of Qi, Chu and Zhejiang and the Donglin Party, making the party struggle more and more intense. But if the adults deal with each other in a fair manner, regardless of each other, the officials of the Manchu Dynasty will be convinced, and the officials brought by the adults at the beginning, if they are involved in the case, are disposed of, although they are dissatisfied, but they are also to blame. The official positions vacated by these officials should be drawn up by the officials themselves, so that they can also be convincing to the public. Some corrupt officials in the Ming Dynasty have come to cleanse them, and if they don't kill some, it will be difficult to play a deterrent role. Just like Xuanfu and Datong, they are the gateways to the capital, so that such officials come to guard it, it would be good if the Ming Dynasty was not destroyed, so how could Zhongxing. ”

Jiang Jie's words are not only reasonable, but also hidden mysteries. In the case of the world, as long as the presiding judge can be fair and fair, no matter how big the case is, it will make people speechless. To put it bluntly, it also refers to the party dispute, if Yue Su really only uses this case to suppress the three parties of Qi, Chu and Zhejiang, and appeases the officials under him, then how can the three parties of Qi, Chu and Zhejiang be convinced, and the party struggle will inevitably be more intense, and the three parties of Qi, Chu and Zhejiang will even join forces with the Donglin Party and work against the Yue Party. Yue Su's strength is great, but it is impossible for him to destroy all the three parties of Qi, Chu and Zhejiang and the Donglin Party, the reason is very simple, that is, the Queen Mother will not agree, and it is impossible for the Queen Mother to let Yue Su's family dominate. Otherwise, it would not be possible for Han Yi to return to Beijing as the first assistant. You must know that when Wei Zhongxian was able to eliminate the Donglin Party, it was with the support of the emperor, without the support of the emperor, how could Wei Zhongxian have that ability. As a result, there is still a war of words in the court every day, and it is all thrown away.

The sentence with a mysterious twist is the sentence "The official positions vacated by these officials, it is best for the adults to let the officials draw up their own plans, so that they can also convince the public."

Why do you say that, because the current official department is a scholar, and the official department is Yang Yishan. Yue Su let go and asked the officials to choose officials, does he have the courage to arrange all his subordinates, so don't say that Yue Su doesn't do it, Yang Yishan can't agree. Don't look at your official secretary is the number one, but the officials to be sent are not up to you alone, at least two waiters and one secretary must all sign. In this way, the meaning is that it is clear that let Qi Shijiao and Yang Yishan discuss the draft officials, with Yue Su here, you Qi Shijiao will not dare to be strong, and Yue Su only needs to tell Yang Yishan, don't go too far, Yang Yishan will not give all the vacancies to the officials of the Yue Party. Wouldn't it be a great joy for two people to discuss and come up with a list that is acceptable to both parties. At the same time, Qi Shijiao can also lead Yue Su to a favor, and there will be no more disputes, and he will not force the officials of the three parties of Qi, Chu and Zhejiang to Han Yi's side.
