There is a problem with the supply of grain and grass for the local officials and troops in the southwest!

The news was transmitted back to the capital as soon as possible, and now he was furious and immediately ordered a thorough investigation.

But the result of the investigation was that he was so depressed that he almost vomited blood, and he almost couldn't help but have the killing intent in his heart and was ready to kill.

I really don't know whether to live or die!

The matter is very simple, the army of the country of Qian Xiang broke into the hinterland of the southwest, causing turmoil in the southwest.

Throughout history, whenever a war breaks out in a certain place, the original normal production and life will be seriously damaged, and the most obvious sign is the sharp rise in grain prices.

This is the current situation in the southwest, not to mention the places where the army of Qianxiang has been wreaking, and even the grain prices in the rear of the southwest have fluctuated greatly, not to the point of exaggeration of three liters a day, but it is also a price a day, which has caused panic and social turmoil among the people.

At this time, the local government should have stepped in to stabilize the price of grain, and at the same time provide the grain and grass needed by the army.

In recent years, Daqi has not said that the wind and rain have been smooth, at least it can be regarded as an overall tranquility, especially the grain production in the south of the Yangtze River has not been affected much, almost every year is a good year or a normal year, and the grain in the official warehouses in various places is piled up, and it is not a problem to cope with the local food supply for half a year.

Pity......

What I'm afraid of is this 'terrible'. Although the system of the imperial court is good, it cannot stand the greed of the officials below, and the collusion between officials and businessmen has sold most of the grain in the official warehouse.

When the army and the localities needed to replenish food, the official warehouses without food were burned to the ground, and the officials who guarded and stole wanted to escape the catastrophe.

Which is that simple?

At this time, it is a very important moment, the army to resist the army of Qianxiang is the first priority, it is easy to find out the problem if you can't get food from the official warehouse, and the general of the unified army has the temper to cut people directly, even if you don't want to be responsible, you will report the situation to the court in the eight-hundred-mile expedited mode, and it will be decided by today.

Today, I was furious when I heard the news, what else is there to say, one word: kill!

It's ridiculous that at this time, there are even officials who jump out to stop it, saying that the war is important and indiscriminately killed.

Such reasons can be said at the court meeting, but those officials still agree with each other, and even today they are a little hesitant.

"Jia Enhou, what do you think?"

At the small court meeting of the Qianqing Palace, the old man who has never spoken has been asked today.

"Kill!"

The eldest lord said indifferently: "If you don't kill people, I'm afraid that the front-line soldiers will not be convinced, and it will affect the morale of the army!" ”

The subtext is already quite clear, if you don't pay the price you deserve if you do something wrong, then there will be more guys who do something wrong in the future, and then it won't be as simple as affecting the morale of the military.

Lightly swept away the cabinet colleagues around him who were shocked and changed, and sneered in his heart, these guys wish that things were unfair today, and if this war failed, it would be a great blow to today's prestige.

As for the chaotic southwest, cabinet colleagues will not take it to heart at all.

Anyway, their hometown is not there, even if it is beaten into nothing, what does it have to do with them?

The country of Qianxiang is just a small country in the southwest, it can be rampant for a while but it can't last, and then the southwest land can still return to the hands of Daqi.

Even if Qian Xiangguo finally asked too much, it was the present day that was embarrassed, and it had nothing to do with the cabinet bosses in the court.

If it really develops at such a pace, although the court may lose some face, the power of the civil official group will also be fully developed, and it may be able to reach the same peak level as the previous dynasty, and even the emperor will not be a problem.

That is the prosperous era that Wenchen longs for!

"Master Jia, your murderous nature is too great!"

"It's hurting the sky!"

"Lord Jia's words, Weichen dare not agree!"

“……”

Several cabinet colleagues who participated in the small court meeting immediately opened their mouths to refute, and their tones were not good, their eyes were dark, and they almost pointed at the nose of the eldest master and scolded the bastard.

"Hehe, if you take the silver you shouldn't take, you will be punished!"

The eldest lord chuckled indifferently, not affected at all, and said coldly: "Is it difficult, you don't have to accept punishment if you do something wrong, so what law will the court have in the future?" ”

"Who says they're wrong?"

The first assistant of the cabinet shouted out in his voice, and immediately called the main hall of the Qianqing Palace quiet.

"Where is the grain?"

The eldest lord sneered: "Don't say that they were all burned by a fire, such tricks are too common, do you want to compare the history books and see how many such things have happened in history to destroy evidence?" ”

"Master Jia, don't talk nonsense, this is responsible!"

The head of the cabinet had a bad face, and said angrily: "Is this the time to talk about this kind of thing?" ”

"If you don't say it at this time, do you still want to exempt those moths from their crimes?"

The eldest lord said coldly: "They have harmed the official warehouse, but it has affected the stability of the front-line army, even to reassure the front-line officers and soldiers, they have to take a few heads!" ”

"Lord Jia is so murderous!"

The cabinet chief sneered: "If outsiders know about this, don't you think that the cabinet is all like Lord Jia?" ”

"Hehe, don't talk!"

The eldest lord sneered: "Whoever dares to speak for those moths will check whom, if there is a problem, they will be investigated directly, and if there is no problem, let whoever go to the front line to supervise the battle!" ”

Speaking of this, he stared at the cabinet chief assistant and said coldly: "Lord Shoufu, do you dare to come down, I don't mind asking Your Majesty to take your head at all, or even the life of your entire clan!" ”

Tear......

The main hall of the Qianqing Palace was silent, and both the cabinet elders present today and those present were all shocked by the cruel words of the eldest lord.

As soon as they felt that the eldest master stood there, a fierce and peerless aura rushed to their faces, almost suffocating them directly when they couldn't breathe.

"Jia Enhou, you are too presumptuous!"

The first assistant of the cabinet was stunned at first, and when he reacted, he suddenly became furious, and said coldly: "What is the crime of threatening the officials?" ”

"Your face is too big, when did you become my superior?"

The eldest man sneered and said: "Seeing that you are only in your early sixties and have gray hair, are you too intrigue on weekdays, what do you think you are?" ”

Speaking of this, he said coldly: "You are just one of the more senior colleagues in the cabinet, and letting you be the first assistant doesn't mean that you are the superior of other colleagues, if you really want to think so, I will be the first to refuse, when will the cabinet also be your word?" ”

After a sharp speech, the cabinet chief assistant in his sixties turned red and angry, but several cabinet colleagues next to him, as well as today, have done nothing.

Just kidding, although the big man is very unpleasant, it is a fact, could it be that the cabinet chief assistant really regards himself as the superior of his cabinet colleagues?

Not to mention that my cabinet colleagues will not agree, and I will not agree today.

"Okay, let's do what Jia Enhou wants, if anyone is against it, go to the front line to supervise the division!"

Today said impatiently: "I hope you will work together to help the imperial court through this difficulty!" ”

But he had other thoughts in his heart, he had already become disgusted with several civil and military leaders in the cabinet, and when did he not forget to defend those officials who had committed crimes, and he didn't have a backache when he stood and talked.

"Jia Enhou, you are very good!"

When he came out of the imperial city, the cabinet chief assistant looked at the eldest lord, his eyes full of anger and murderous intent.

"Hehe, you want to get me?"

The eldest lord smiled, smiled lightly, laughed so coldly, and said leisurely: "It's just the first assistant of the cabinet, it's too simple to get you now!" ”

didn't wait for the other party to make a move, the old man's words were still sharp: "Don't think that the little action you did is unknown to others, and the connection between the gang of coaxing grain merchants and you, do you think that even if you are a smart person, everyone else is a fool?" ”

The words were like a thunderbolt that directly stunned the cabinet chief.

What made him even more chilling was that Dai Quan, the chief administrator of the Great House, hurriedly came and asked the eldest master to go back to the Qianqing Palace to talk.

A few days later, the order was issued again and again, and the embroidered guards rode out in all directions, and at the same time there were major changes in the cabinet, and a few days later, the cabinet chief assistant suddenly took the initiative to resign and return to his hometown, and today he didn't even say anything about retaining it, and directly agreed to the departure of the cabinet chief assistant.

The entire court hall fell into a depressing and strange atmosphere, and all the officials felt as if they had pressed a boulder in their hearts, and they didn't even dare to take a breath of air when there was no obvious indication today.

On the southwest front, the officials who thought they could escape were directly seized by the embroidered guards who fell from the sky, and all the heads of the first offenders were cut off, and the accomplices were sent to serve in the army as part of the coolie battalion and the death battalion.

The silver found from the homes of these officials alone was no less than one million taels, enough to supply the front-line army for two years, and what makes us even more angry today is that a large amount of grain was found from the Zhuangzi of these officials, and a large amount of grain was also found from the grain store in which he participated, which was enough to supply the front-line officers and soldiers for a year.

It's crazy!

At this time, none of the officials in the court dared to plead for mercy, and now they are still unwilling to give up, and directly sent embroidered guards to investigate the courtiers who helped speak before, and all the courtiers who were too dirty or had a connection with the snake in the southwest were all taken down.

For a while, the atmosphere in the capital suddenly became tense and solemn, and the families of the nobles were living cautiously, for fear that when they opened their eyes one morning, they would see a group of murderous embroidered guards.

"Uncle, I'm afraid it's inappropriate for you to offend the civil officials so carelessly!"

In private, Lin Ruhai smiled bitterly and persuaded: "It's better to be a little more restrained, now you have the absolute upper hand, what if you can do it, can you continue to be so strong?" ”

"We'll talk about that later!"

The eldest lord said indifferently: "At least I am in the cabinet for a day, I will not allow anyone to lead to the rout of the front-line officers and troops because of selfish distractions, such a thing is difficult for me to accept!" ”

Lin Ruhai smiled bitterly, it was difficult for him to accept such a thing.

It's just that......

The officialdom situation is complicated, it doesn't mean that you are in a high position, and you can never fall if you are full of justice, those guys whose interests are damaged or whose plans are frustrated will definitely focus their hatred on the big master, in case something happens, it will not be good.
