Chapter Eighty-Eight: Setting Up a Suppression Division, Full of Surprise!
"Grandpa, what are you talking about, look at your spiritual head, it will not be a problem to live for more than ten years, the Jiangshan Sheji, and the saint are all pointing to you for protection, you can't fall." Zhou An pinched the purple jade pendant in his hand and said.
Kang Longji waved his hand, looked at the snow outside the bar, and said very calmly: "Our family's body, our family knows, when we are old, if we don't use it, it's time to go to see the first emperor." ”
Zhou An didn't know how to answer for a while.
Listening to Kang Longji's meaning, he really can't last long, and he can live for a few months?
"Xiao Anzi...... Although you are young, you can be called a talent, courage, courage, and talent that others do not have...... Don't let us down. Kang Longji turned his head to look at Zhou Andao.
Kang Longji said this......
"The little ones won't let you down." Zhou An immediately said, and saluted Kang Longji quite formally and respectfully.
******
The first snow fell for three days.
Until the day of October 27, there was still a rumor in the Qianjing City, and the assassination of Wu Xukuan shook the government and the opposition, as well as the world.
In the past few days, Wu Xukuan and others still do not go to court.
The empress sent someone to the mansion of Marquis Wu Wen to express her condolences, that is, to make a show.
And on the morning of this day, the empress sent someone to the Wuwen Marquis Mansion again and asked Wu Xukuan to go to the court, of course, not to force him to go to the court, which means that if Wu Xukuan is in better health, he should return to the court as soon as possible.
Wu Xukuan naturally refused under the pretext.
And just after this morning, there was an astonishing news in the palace: in order to cure the stubborn disease of corruption in the imperial court, the empress ordered that the Jinyi Guard be given the right to inspect and arrest, set up the Yamen of the Suppression Division, set up an inner prison, and suppressed the Jinyi Guard, who could engage in reconnaissance, arrest, private interrogation, trial, execution, etc. without the permission of the Criminal Department, Dali Temple, and the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and that they could arrest and examine anyone except the empress, from the emperor's relatives and relatives to the peddlers' pawns, as long as they were suspects.
Yuan Shengshi, the commander of the Jinyi Guard and the general of the first product to protect the country, will serve as the head of the Zhenfu Division, and the official name is the Admiral of the Zhenfu Division.
In addition, the empress also sent the eunuch Zhou An, the eunuch of the ceremonial superintendent, to supervise the eunuchs for the Zhenfu Division, and cooperate with the Zhenfu Division to handle cases.
The news spread like the wind.
All over the world are shocked!
The news only came out of Da Nei for half an hour, and a number of luxurious carriages and horses rushed to the door of Wu Wenhou's mansion in the wind and snow, and those who came to meet Wu Xukuan quickly were naturally Wu Xukuan's cronies and important ministers, they were really anxious, and they came directly to Wu Xukuan to discuss.
The empress fought back like this, which can be described as sharp!
It's impossible for them not to panic.
In fact, if it is only the right to inspect and arrest, it is nothing, there are many yamen who have this right, and they have this right to find a patrol leader on the street, they have this right, and they can also arrest suspicious people when they find them.
The real problem is twofold.
First, this right is too great! Big enough to directly arrest the emperor's relatives and relatives, the princes of the Manchu Dynasty can arrest whoever they want, and sentence whoever they want, such a right, in the past, when the three divisions of the Criminal Department, the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and the Dali Temple were tried, they had to hold the emperor's holy decree in their hands to have such rights.
But now, all rights come together in one.
Second, and most importantly,
The Zhenfu Division is only responsible to the empress, which is the most terrifying, that is to say, the Zhenfu Division has skipped the Criminal Department, the Metropolitan Procuratorate and other judicial organs, and does not need their permission to arrest and interrogate people, or even secretly execute.
The Suppression Division has such a right, so naturally everyone will immediately put themselves in danger.
In particular, the important ministers under Wu Xukuan understood that the empress so radically set up such a possible yamen was aimed at Wu Xukuan and his group of people.
So they are afraid.
They even felt that the empress was crazy, she was driven crazy by Wu Xukuan, and she dared to act like this.
And not only them, but even the royalists in the court, as well as those shrunken bird Beijing officials who did not want to change the dynasty, did not understand why the empress was so aggressive.
Isn't this forcing Wu Xukuan to rebel directly by force?
In the morning, the news caused a sensation throughout Qianjing City.
At noon, more than a dozen important ministers of the court entered the palace one after another, wanting to see the empress, but they were all stopped outside the Taihe Gate leading to the inner court, and Kang Longji personally blocked the door, under the pretext that the empress was ill and did not see them.
This ** party ministers are also old ministers, they entered the palace this time, they are here to make trouble, change the way to make trouble, whether it is crying and shouting, or kneeling for a long time, as long as they can explain to the empress the dangers of setting up a pacification division, and show their determination to the empress, maybe they can force the empress to change her decision.
In fact, they came on behalf of Wu Xukuan.
As long as they can make the empress feel how fierce the reaction will be caused by such an act, and arouse the empress's concern that Wu Xukuan may really directly rebel because of this, maybe they can make the empress change her mind.
It's a pity that they didn't even see the face of the empress.
Qi Jingtai, the head of the household, even hit his head on the ground outside the Taihe Gate, and the head broke and bled out, forcing him to die, but he didn't force the empress to see him.
It's useless.
Kang Longji personally blocked the door, just to prevent this from happening, if he changed to other little eunuchs to block the door, he saw that the head of the household was about to knock himself to death, and he was afraid of taking responsibility, so he might go in to confess.
Kang Longji is not afraid of any responsibility, so he looks at it coldly.
This group of ministers did not dare to be presumptuous with Kang Longji, and there was no other way than to practice themselves.
They made trouble outside the Taihe Gate for more than an hour, and then left one after another, which was also embarrassing for them, in fact, they entered the palace this time, not necessarily their original intention, it is estimated that Wu Xukuan forced them to come.
In the afternoon, the entire Qianjing City was full of rumors and panic.
Various gossips also came into being.
People are panicking, not only the traitors, but the entire court, they are really all afraid, what the traitors are afraid of is that they don't know who the empress will take first, and the others are afraid of Wu Xukuan's direct rebellion.
There have even been rumors in Qianjing City that Wu Xukuan is going to rebel tonight, and he has sent someone to report outside the city to inform the 100,000 Zhongzhou troops to enter the city tonight.
And in the afternoon, until dusk, many courtiers entered the palace and wanted to face the saint.
All were rejected.
Wu Xukuan mobilized so many courtiers into the palace, naturally he was putting pressure on the empress, he wanted the empress to understand how much he cared about this matter, but ...... He himself, but he did not enter the palace.
Because he knew that when he entered the palace, he would definitely be scared back.
It has to do with what happened in the morning.
In the morning, the empress deliberately sent someone to invite Wu Xukuan to enter the palace to participate in the early dynasty, saying that she wanted to discuss major matters, but Wu Xukuan refused, saying that she was too sick and frightened a few days ago...... Just because Wu Xukuan said this, he entered the palace again, and the empress had a reason to scold him.
So he didn't enter the palace, he just sent people into the palace in batches, and the meaning was enough.
Moreover, in fact, he knows very well that if the empress can do this kind of thing, it is unlikely that she will change her mind, and he will send people to pressure him in batches, but he will only try, and if he succeeds, if he does not succeed, he will not succeed.
……
As night fell, the people of Qianjing City, which had been in panic for a day, finally began to fall silent.
At noon today, the snow stopped, and after nightfall, it started to fall again.
The entire Qianjing city is already covered in snow, and the snow is enough to reach people's ankles.
It is less than two hours at night, the time of the winter curfew has not yet arrived, and there are few pedestrians on the road, after all, it is winter, it is still a heavy snowy day, and the night is extremely cold, and the people of Qianjing City do not go out much at this time of the season.
At this time, most of the families in Qianjing City had already slept peacefully.
Qianjing City West, Luoguxiang, Malian Street.
At night, the wide, straight streets were silent and silent.
Bang ......
The fierce sound of horses' hooves broke the calm of Malian Street, a large group of soldiers and horses appeared on the streets of the north, and quickly went south, this large group of soldiers and horses, the total number of people was about 300 people, of which only more than 10 people were riding horses, and the rest were running to follow.
Malian Street is south, on the right side of the alley mouth of Tiegui Lane, there is a very magnificent deep house compound.
Three hundred soldiers and horses came from the north, and when they arrived at the gate of this mansion, they suddenly stopped, and Yuan Shengshi, who was riding a jujube red horse, turned over and dismounted directly, drew his sword and pointed at the sky, and the three hundred soldiers and horses quickly divided into multiple shares, surrounding the mansion into a flood.
Next to the jujube red horse, Zhou An also turned over and dismounted, he walked under the gate in the face of the wind and snow, raised his hand to collect the big coat he was wearing, and looked up at the door plaque of the mansion.
- Wufu!
This is the first one to be used for surgery after the official establishment of the Yamen of the Zhenfu Division.
The person to be arrested tonight is the commander of the secret guard - Wu Guoyu!
