Bao Mingjing, one of the six Shangshu of the Criminal Department, actually committed suicide!

Scary or not?

Zhou An didn't think it was scary, because people were scared to commit suicide by him! In fact, in the afternoon of yesterday, the dead had already begun, and it was fine before noon, not long after the end of the court, but as soon as the time arrived in the afternoon, the news of crossing the top of the mountain came back.

This became the last straw that crushed many people!

They understand that Zhou An is no longer as simple as being unshakable, but that he will be more powerful and more reused by the empress!

And with Zhou An's temperament that must be retribution, it is difficult to say how many of those people who participated in the impeachment of him in this Manchu Dynasty will die in the whole family!

Zhou An didn't even need to do it.

It is enough to dig through the old accounts.

How many of those veterans who have been officials for decades dare to say that they are absolutely clean? Even if you are clean, are your family members clean? Did you use your power to do evil?

The weaker the heart, the faster they will die!

But Bao Mingjing's death still surprised Zhou An, the book of the Criminal Department! Not to mention whether Zhou An wants to move him or not, even if he really wants to move him, he has to consider the impact and the empress's emotions.

Zhou An doesn't have a brain, he is now coaxing the empress, the empress is unhappy, he can't do it.

However, obviously, it is impossible for Bao Mingjing to know what the situation between Zhou An and the empress is.

And he, there must be a problem!

Or maybe he has a problem at home!

Otherwise, I wouldn't be so weak-hearted.

He can only choose death, and use his own death to protect his family, which can be said to be an unspoken rule of the court, if the defeated side in the political struggle chooses to retire or self-judge, the winning side should not be killed.

After all, no one can guarantee that they will have a smooth life and a good death, and they will be merciful to others, and others will be merciful to themselves.

The little pavilion finished reading.

Eight people died last night, and the highest one was Bao Mingjing.

Zhou An sorted out his clothes, turned around and took the small notebook in the hand of the small pavilion, read it carefully, and then looked up and asked, "Where is Tian Wenwei?" ”

"I'm sick." The small pavilion said.

"Sick?" Zhou An asked again.

"Yes, the factory man, Tianfu called Langzhong last night, and in the second half of the night, Fang Layuan also went to Tianfu, and he didn't ......leave until dawn," said the small pavilion.

Tian Wenwei was monitored by the East Factory, so he knew the details.

The little pavilion mentions a name...... Fang Layuan!

This person is a well-known miracle doctor in Qianjing City, with the name of hanging a pot to help the world, and rejuvenating with wonderful hands, he does not take a penny from the poor who cannot afford to cure the disease, and he often collects a lot of money for high-ranking officials and giants......

He is a miracle doctor with a good reputation.

Tian Wenwei is sick?

I don't know if it's true or not.

If it's true, eighty percent of it is angry, and if it's fake, it means that he is afraid! He may be really clean, his family is strict, and his family is clean, but as long as he thinks of Zhou An badly, it is normal for him to be afraid.

After all, if Zhou An really touched him, it would not only be him who would die, but the whole family.

"Our family knows, you can go." Zhou Andao.

"Little retirement!" The small pavilion hurried away.

……

Qianwu Palace, Qianyuan Palace.

Zhou An walked into the main hall, but he didn't see the empress, and the empress hadn't come over yet...... Could it be that I drank too much last night and really made a mistake?

"The Holy One hasn't been here yet?" Zhou An asked the eunuch at the door.

"Back to the chief manager, the saint has not yet arrived, but he has ordered someone to prepare food in the temple." The eunuch replied respectfully.

"Hmm." Zhou An nodded and walked towards the main hall.

The empress was not there, and he couldn't sit casually, so he paced back and forth in the main hall.

Not much.

A group of people came with the empress in a mighty crowd, and everyone else stayed outside the palace, only two little palace maids followed the empress into the Qianyuan Palace.

"Holy Lord, you are here." Zhou An hurried you over, and took the initiative to admit his mistake, "It's all to blame on the minion, I shouldn't have invited you to drink last night, I almost missed something......"

It is said that it is almost because there is still time.

When the empress entered the main hall, the palace maids and eunuchs began to serve food.

"Humph!" The empress gave Zhou An a nasal voice, and looked at Zhou An with strange eyes, her face was not quite right, but she immediately returned to normal.

Of course, Zhou An didn't know what the empress was thinking.

"Come and sit down." The Empress raised her hand as she walked towards the table.

Zhou An followed the empress.

When the empress sat down on the side of the long table, Zhou An took out the small notebook from his arms, bowed down and handed it to the empress.

"What is this?" The empress asked, and without waiting for Zhou An to answer, she opened the small notebook.

It recorded the death information of eight people, which was given to Zhou An by Xiaotingzi.

The reason why Zhou An took the initiative to show the empress was naturally because the empress would know sooner or later, and it could even be said that she would know right away, as long as she went to the early court, the empress would receive a notice.

Zhou An has a clear conscience.

He didn't kill people, they all committed suicide.

But it's hard to say whether the empress will blame him, so he has to let the empress know in advance, which is much better than the empress in the court knowing and making a wrong decision under emotional instability.

And.

Privately, easy to talk to.

The empress was expressionless, and after a few glances, her face became gloomy, and Bao Mingjing, the secretary of the Criminal Department, committed suicide! Of the eight people recorded in the small book, the lowest official rank is also the fourth grade.

Zhou An stood aside without saying a word.

The empress read it several times, slowly closed the notebook, and looked up at Zhou An.

Syllable!

The empress slapped the notebook on the table and scolded Zhou An: "You did a good job! ”

The palace maids and eunuchs in the main hall all knelt on the ground in fright.

"Holy Lord, the minions have done nothing, if they really have a clear conscience, why are they afraid of the minions? How have a servant ever taken revenge on a courtier who is loyal to you? Look at Natian Wenwei, he is not afraid of minions. Zhou An said with a straight face.

In fact, if anyone else, whether it was a prince or a minister, or a great eunuch of the inner court, could pose such a threat to the imperial court, and even without words, Peter Lao Chen could commit suicide...... Whoever is replaced by it will have to die!

For the Emperor, this cannot exist!

Otherwise, the imperial power is in danger!

But Zhou An is different.

Dramatically different.

If the empress takes that step, then Zhou An is part of the imperial power, and his majesty is the majesty of the royal family!

The empress was so angry that she was angry.

No matter how you think about it, it's not a good thing.

The impact is so bad!

She'll think about it, and that's the question of impact.

"You sent someone to spy on them?" The Empress asked another sensitive question.

"Shengshang, there is not much time left for the court to be rebuilt, people's hearts are unpredictable, and the servants have no choice, besides...... The minions are watching them for you! Zhou An simply opened his words.

He has given the empress no other choice.

That's what I did, anyway! It's so threatening!

Or you're going to hack me to death!

Or, marry me!
