Chapter 285 Luna glory
The imperial capital made Yin Jiziyi in charge of the appointment and dispatch of hundreds of officials of the Great Xia Kingdom, and he was nominally quite powerful, but in fact it was just a fictitious position.
Because the kingdoms were strong at this time, the officials of the lands under the rule of the princes were not bound by the royal power at all.
The chief official appointed by Emperor Xuan, Ling Yin Jiziyi, also became a certificate issuer.
The princes and kings just reported the officials they had selected and recognized to Lord Ling Yin to make a record and it was over.
After Emperor Xuan ascended the throne, he felt that his power was getting worse and worse, and he began to implement a series of changes.
The change will touch the interest of the vassal states, so the countries will not cooperate!
The only effect of Emperor Xuan's reform was to create the post of prime minister to take charge of the country's military and political affairs, and to restrain hundreds of officials.
Dazai Jiang Entropy is a bachelor with the same name as his master. He was entrusted by Emperor Xuan to serve as the prime minister for 20 years, and he worked hard to make the position of prime minister bigger and stronger, so that the princes and kings thought of finding the prime minister to discuss everything, thus forgetting the existence of Lord Ling Yin.
However, in the imperial capital, Lord Yin still has a little sense of existence.
Because nominally, he is still Si Kou's immediate boss.
The Scoop is in charge of the Penal Department, which is responsible for prison and picketing matters.
On this day, a personable white-clothed swordsman suddenly came to surrender in the yamen of the Criminal Department.
The white-clothed swordsman claimed to be Mu Bai, confessed to Si Kou that he had killed someone in Shili Ping Lake, and surrendered himself before being condemned by his conscience.
Mu Bai was imprisoned after signing and drawing on the charges of the Criminal Department.
Unexpectedly, after a stick of incense, he began to shout injustice.
Mu Bai banged on the cell door and shouted that he was deceived by witchcraft to do such a stupid thing, he was innocent, and Murray, the son of the Patriotic State, could testify.
As soon as Si Kou heard that the suspect in the case was involved in Gongzi Murray, he immediately sent someone to inquire.
The detectives came back to report, and everything Mu Bai said was true. Childe Murray also asked the arrester to summon Si Kou quickly, and since he caught the wrong person, he quickly released him.
Si Kou was taken by the power of his son Murray, so he wanted to cancel the case for Mu Bai, and at that time Liu Cangshan and Li Zhiyu also came to the Yamen of the Criminal Department to report that Mu Bai killed Liu Qiangrose, the daughter of the Liu family.
Seeing that what Liu Cangshan said was exactly the same as Mu Bai's confession, Si Kou felt that there must be something strange about this case.
Originally, he didn't care about the death of an ordinary folk girl, but when he heard that Liu Qiangrose's father was a teacher at Beilu Academy, his attitude immediately changed.
It turned out that many officials of the imperial capital, such as Lord Si Kou and Lord Ling Yin, were from the Beilu Academy, and they all regarded themselves as the protΓ©gΓ©s of their masters, and they were proud of it.
Because the master's knowledge is vast, he was once the enlightenment teacher of three generations of emperors, and his status is transcendent.
Lord Si Kou didn't dare to draw a conclusion about this case, so he threw this burden to Lord Ling Yin and Ji Ziyi.
Ji Zi was born in a different royal family, and he is a talented son of Beilu Academy.
After he got the case file, he immediately sent someone to conduct a detailed investigation into the case.
It was concluded that Mu Bai might indeed be the murderer of Liu Qiangrose. So he decisively refused the request of his son Murray, and Mu Bai continued to be detained in the prison of the Criminal Department.
Of course, this is to offend Gongzi Murray.
Early that morning, he was escorted by twelve guards to go to the court, and when he passed by the Liulin Bridge, a group of masked killers suddenly appeared from behind the stone bridge.
The killers were all armed with longbows, and most of Ji Ziyi's guards were injured by a burst of arrows.
After that, they drew their big knives and slashed at them, and in the melee, only two guards threw themselves into the river and fled for their lives, while the rest of the guards and Ling Yin's Ji Zi were in different places in a moment.
The imperial capital has always been safe and secure under the management of Jiang Entropy.
Although Emperor Xuan's power was oppressed by the three dukes, his majesty was still there, and his dignity was incomparable.
However, the assassination of court officials on the street made Emperor Xuan feel deeply uneasy.
This may be the beginning of a turbulent era.
Dazai Jiang Entropy was ordered by Emperor Xuan to investigate the matter thoroughly.
After Jiang Entropy took over the case, he immediately noticed that Ji Ziyi's assassination might be related to Mu Bai's arrest.
So he sent someone to find Liu Cangshan, wanting to know the details of Liu Qiangrose's murder case.
Liu Cangshan was in the painting heart workshop at this time. The news that he was summoned by Dazai Jiang Entropy was naturally known to Ukishengye immediately.
Ukiyoha is preparing to meet Dazai Jiang Entropy to discuss a big matter.
If he had followed the usual procedure, he might have to wait a few days before he could see Dazai.
So in order to be in a hurry, Fushengye accompanied Liu Cangshan to meet Dazai Jiang Entropy.
The place where Dazai Jiang Entropy summoned Liu Cangshan was in the official residence of Lord Yin.
Fushengye was still wearing a black robe and a golden mask in front of everyone.
The guards of the Yin Mansion saw that Fushengye was wearing a golden mask and had a strange identity, so they asked him to take off the mask and go in again to meet Dazai Jiang Entropy.
Seeing this, Liu Cangshan scolded the guards: "Don't be so rude to adults. This is the first in the West Mountain of the Snowy Moon Temple. Even the emperor has no right to let him take off his mask! β
Who in the imperial capital of Great Xia dared to talk about the emperor easily, and the guards were about to get angry, when suddenly a sharp look swept over everyone.
Those guards were coldly looked at by the floating leaves, their hearts were furious, and their backs were cold.
Under the eagle eyes of the floating leaves, these guards were silent.
Fushengye said to Liu Cangshan: "Go in!" β
The two of them came to the middle hall and met Dazai Jiang Entropy.
Jiang Entropy is over fifty years old, and he is in his prime for a person who does learning.
He was dressed in court clothes and sat in front of the chair in the middle hall, which was very similar to the rumored old-fashioned and mean appearance.
Liu Cangshan saw Jiang Entropy kneeling down on one knee and bowing to the highest salute of the samurai.
The floating leaves only bowed slightly.
After the two of them introduced themselves, Jiang Entropy stared at the floating leaves and said, "You are from the Snowy Moon Temple, can you know the whereabouts of my daughter Yufei?" β
Fushengye took out a letter from his bosom and asked the guards to hand it to Jiang Entropy.
After reading the letter, Jiang Entropy lowered his head and was silent for a while before saying to Fushengye: "Okay! Thank you for taking care of her! β
Fushengye said: "She is my best friend, everything I do for her is as it should be!" β
Jiang Entropy said to Liu Cangshan: "How much do you know about the murder of your sister?" β
Liu Cangshan said: "I was deceived by Mu Bai's house, and I originally knew very little, but after meeting the first adult, my lord's insight gave me a detailed understanding of the whole thing!" β
Jiang Entropy said: "Let's talk about it!" β
Liu Cangshan said: "Obey!" β
Liu Cangshan began to tell the story of his father's life, all the way to Pinghu Town, where they were hunted down by assassins of unknown origin.
When Jiang Entropy heard this, he knew that this case was so implicated, and it was actually related to the succession to the throne of Yuguo.
Jiang Entropy said to Liu Cangshan: "How can I believe your words? How did a failed teacher of the academy become the heir to the throne of the Yu Kingdom in a blink of an eye? β
Liu Cangshan looked dazed, because he had no evidence to prove that what he said was true.
Fushengye said: "I can prove that everything he said is true!" β
Jiang Entropy said to Fusheng Ye again: "How can you prove that this matter is very important, how can I believe it just based on your empty words?" β
Fushengye said: "The envoy of the Feather Kingdom has already arrived in the imperial capital first, but we don't know where he is now. But it doesn't matter, the team of the envoy of the Feather Country will inevitably arrive within three days, and the truth will be revealed at that time! β
Jiang Entropy said: "Then I'll wait for three more days!" β
Fushengye said: "I'm afraid you can't wait!" β
Jiang Entropy said: "Why do you say this? β
Fushengye said: "Please step back, this matter is very confidential!" β
Jiang Entropy said: "My guards are all people I can trust!" β
Fushengye said: "Please believe what I say next, it's really not suitable for more people to know!" β
Jiang Entropy waved his hand to the guards and motioned for them to retreat outside the courtyard.
The Floating Leaf Ear is very good, and after making sure that no one is eavesdropping, he told Jiang Entropy some of the information that the Painting Heart Workshop has detected in the past few days.
Through the monitoring of the big-eared spirit mouse, Huaxin learned that Wei Guogong was already plotting to get rid of the current Emperor Xuan and re-establish the third prince of Emperor Xuan, who was nearly eight years old, as the emperor.
They also planned to divide the imperial capital of Great Xia after the new emperor ascended the throne, and each of them became kings.
The reason why they dared to do this was because of the support of the Imperial Palace.
In their plan, the emperor will eventually be abolished, and in the future, all kingdoms will be equal, and the princes and kings will only worship the prince as the supreme of Great Xia.
Jiang Entropy was like being struck by lightning when he heard this, and he was silent for a long time before he said: "If what you said is true, then this is a big thing that pierces the sky!" β
Fushengye said: "In my opinion, it's just a trivial matter. I experienced the catastrophe that befell the Netherworld in Drifting Snow City. That's the real human tragedy! Now I think about it, I have palpitations! β
Jiang Entropy said: "Drifting Snow City Tribulation, I have also heard of it. A natural disaster like that, which has not been encountered in 500 years, is really sensational! β
Fushengye said: "If I tell you that the Heavenly Tribulation will come again, and it is very likely to come to the imperial capital, will you feel alarmist!" β
Jiang Entropy said: "How is this possible, the wizards of our Imperial Capital Astrology Tower are always observing the celestial phenomena!" β
Fusheng Ye said: "There is also an astrology building in the sacrificial hall of Drifting Snow City, and it is not destroyed by the Heavenly Tribulation!" I'm not saying this to scare anyone? I just hope that Dazai-sama can think about the people of the world and take precautions. β
Jiang Entropy said: "At first, I just wanted to ask about the murder of the daughter of the Liu family, how could it be involved in the Heavenly Tribulation of Drifting Snow City?" β
Floating leaves: "Heaven and earth and all things are one, small can see big, macro can also be subtle!" The Rose case must be investigated, the rebels should also be punished, and the catastrophe must be dealt with as soon as possible! Isn't this the mind that a prime minister should have? β
Jiang Entropy was in awe of the floating leaves when he heard this: "The words of the first adult are deafening!" β
Fushengye raised his head and said: "I want the people of the Central Plains to be safe and sound, to be warmly dressed, to be well fed, to support the elderly, and to have little to rely on."
I want to see no wandering beggars on the streets again. I want every orphan to have a warm home to live in. I want everyone in the Great Xia Kingdom to live with dignity. I have come to spread the glory of the moon god! β
Jiang Entropy said: "Although your faith is different from mine, I admire your spirit very much. If you have any problems in this snowy city, you can ask me for help! β
Fushengha said: "Thank you, Dazai-sama!" β
Jiang Entropy said: "What you said today is very important, please don't tell anyone else about it." I immediately went to the palace to meet the saint and discuss the next step. Please wait for the news at the Painting Heart Workshop and don't leave easily! I will send a team of guards to keep you safe. β
Ukisuiha said: "So, thank you Dazai-sama for your kindness!" The guards are better excused, we have the ability to protect ourselves! β
Jiang Entropy said: "No! Guards must be sent! β
