602

The capital, the imperial city.

Affected by the rainy weather, the sky became dark and hazy, and the oppressive mist permeated the entire imperial city, giving people a feeling that the mountain rain was about to come and the wind was full of buildings.

In the empty and majestic court, a group of civil and military officials lowered their heads slightly, feeling the coercion from the superiors, and most of them were still in a trance, not quite understanding what kind of trouble was going on today???

The emperor has always been in poor health and not tired, and most of the government affairs of the court and the central government are entrusted to the cabinet, and then the cabinet reviews and then submits it to the heavens. In this way, this has become an unwritten rule, and if there is something to ask the cabinet, especially the respected Lord Liu, you can't worry the emperor with trivial things.

The emperor's dragon body is greater than everything.

But today, I don't know why the old minister of the Three Dynasties, Luan Yu Shi Luan Weiliang, suddenly jumped out and sued Cui Chang'an, the secretary of the Ministry of History, for taking advantage of his power to use his power for personal gain, accepting bribes, embezzling money in ink, and embezzling merchants' property several times, and even conniving at evil slaves to set up gambling houses privately, distributing printing money and forcing people to die.

I don't know where Luan Weiliang, an old stubborn, got the news, but he actually crossed the cabinet and handed the excerpt directly to the emperor.

This Luan is a good person!

As an official in the same dynasty, except for the new young officials, few people heard of Luan Weiliang, and the rest of the civil and military officials who were old and had served the emperor loved and hated Luan Weiliang.

There is no other reason, this person is upright in nature, and he can be called a righteous gentleman. It's just that the temper is hot, it's the kind of explosive machine that is called moving, and he can make trouble when he encounters things that can't be seen, and he won't stop making you doubt life.

It just so happened that such a person, when the first emperor was there, praised him for being loyal to the monarch and direct ministers, which was amazing, and he went further and further on this road.

After the new emperor succeeded to the throne, he did not return to his hometown when he was over seventy years old, and continued to serve as a petty official of the imperial history in the imperial history platform, impartial to anyone, not far or near, and maintained his backbone.

As I get older, my temper grows too. There is no room for sand in his eyes, and if he grasps a mistake, he will make trouble for the emperor. Yes, no one wants to provoke such a person.

Of course, it's not that you can't be provoked, it's just that this person is going to hit the pillar if he doesn't agree with him, and if he dies for the country, he will ask you if you're troublesome.

Over time, everyone respected and loved Luan Yushi, and did not let him have the slightest dissatisfaction and grievance.

Today, this Luan Yushi is making trouble again, look at the emperor's anger, don't be angry.

The circle in the capital is not big, it is not small, they have also heard about Cui Changan's family, and they scoffed at the reputation of the Cui family, but the Cui family, which eats elephants, is also ugly.

However, Cui Changan is Liu Ce's brother-in-law, sitting on the mountain with his back to Shoufu, and he is an official in the Ministry of History, so even if he has the strength to look at his family, he only dares to be angry and dare not speak, after all, the Liu family is not something that anyone can afford to provoke.

Today, there are only two princes and one prince under the emperor's knees, and maybe one day the Liu family will become a prince and go to the next level.

Maybe there is a shadow of the Liu family behind these things of the Cui family. In this way, everyone will not dare to take care of it. If you turn a blind eye and don't burn yourself, everything will be fine.

Therefore, those who can afford to provoke avoid it, and those who can't afford it to avoid it. Only Luan Weiliang, a loyal monarch and minister who is not afraid of heaven and earth, dares to pull the tiger's beard.

Many people pinched a cold sweat for Luan Weiliang, and at the same time secretly prayed that things would pass quickly.

However, this matter is destined not to be fast, it is a matter of the first assistant, how could the second assistant Chen Yuan let go of this opportunity, proposed to the emperor that the criminal department try the case, and suggested that the Cui family's property be confiscated afterwards and distributed to the victims.

In his heart, he had already set the most for Cui Changan.

How could Liu Ce agree, regardless of whether Cui An's crime was true or not. It just doesn't work to hand people over to the criminal department. Zuo Shilang of the Criminal Department is the newly appointed Chang Qingchi, the prince of Chang Guo, Lord Shang Shuluo of the Criminal Department is old and is about to die of old age, and this Criminal Department will not be Chang Qingchi in the future.

And Chang Qingchi has always had a political disagreement with Liu Ce, and he was exiled for many years because of Liu Ce, and then the relationship between his wife and brother Shen Che, the son of Prince Luo, met Gong Yi'an and Liu Ce, and it was difficult for Cui Changan to come out after entering the Criminal Department.

In this way, Liu Ce is 10,000 unforgiving criminal department to intervene in this case, so he strongly proposed to be tried by Dali Temple, and he also hated Luan Weiliang, this stubborn old horseman, he actually dared to hand the fold above the court, not according to the process, if it was through the cabinet, he could completely intercept the fold, and let the Dali Temple try the case like a small matter, arrest a few murderous slaves or set the matter as evidence of false accusations. Now in front of the civil and military officials, in front of the emperor, he can't blatantly be the emperor's master.

Royal majesty is still needed.

The two auxiliary ministers of the cabinet argued endlessly on this matter, and the rest of the officials all lowered their heads, not daring to speak, which side could not afford to offend, it was really the feeling of immortals fighting mortals suffering.

On the throne of the Nine Dragons, Shen Jun looked coldly at the chaos under the court, this Liu Ce took advantage of the cabinet to control the government and act on behalf of the sky on the grounds of his life, the current situation is not an overnight effort, Shen Jun has long understood that now his body is getting better day by day, and the authority is being withdrawn little by little.

Above the court, Luan Weiliang was already red-faced, his voice was as loud as thunder, pointing at Liu Ce and scolding, Cui Chang'an's incident was derived from Liu Ce, who was the first assistant of the dynasty, did not set an example, did not restrain his clansmen and relatives, and indulged in his murderous troubles, what should he be guilty of.

The court that should have been open and solemn seemed to have been turned into a vegetable market by him, and before Luan Weiliang was about to hit the pillar with grief and anger, Shen Jun finally opened his mouth and ordered the three law divisions to be tried and the criminal department to supervise.

A controversy ended, but in the end it failed to fulfill Liu Ce's wish.

After getting out of the court, Liu Ce walked out of the palace gate, calm all the way, and his face was calm and silent.

Chen Yuan, who was behind him, quickly chased after him.

"Lord Liu stays."

Liu Ce stopped and looked at the visitor with a calm face.

"Lord Liu, today's dispute with this official is really in accordance with the law, if you are offended, please ask Lord Liu to forgive, and another day the younger brother will set up a banquet in Quanjude to invite the crime, and I hope Lord Liu will come." Chen Yuan said sincerely, and it was really a scheming move to ask for guilt in front of many civil and military officials of the lower dynasty.

Everyone knows that according to the Great Moon Law, ordinary criminals will be handed over to the government for trial, and those who violate the law by officials in the imperial court will be handed over to the three divisions or Ying Tianfu or the Criminal Department for trial, and then choose a supervision, cherish and value, and not be rash, this is the will of Emperor Shengtaizu himself, which has been inherited to this day and cannot be changed. Therefore, Chen Yuan's move is not deliberately targeted, but it is just acting according to the law.

In front of everyone's eyes, Liu Ce can turn against him, he is the first assistant of a dynasty, and he has the same power as the country, and he can't violate the laws and orders formulated by Emperor Taizu in public.

How shrewd he was, and how could he leave a stain of favoritism in front of everyone.

Liu Ce took a deep look at Chen Yuan in front of him, and suddenly raised his arms slightly and slowly shook them towards the east: "Brother Chen is polite, you and I are officials in the same dynasty, and we are dedicated to sharing worries and doing things for the emperor, how can you offend Lenien." The law is not merciful, if Cui Changan is true, he still hopes that the three law divisions will act according to the law, and they will not be spared. ”

After the sharp words, the two scheming people parted ways.
