Chapter 48: The Three-Legged Dynasty
Flowing fire in July, clothing in September. In the blink of an eye, it was autumn.
The cool autumn wind blew the maple leaves, and the maple leaves drifted to the streets and alleys with pieces of autumn thoughts.
The sky is still white, and the cold morning breeze brings dew, bringing a little sadness to this autumn morning.
Ye Shaochuan sat in the carriage of the previous court, and secretly sighed, it is also late autumn in the court, and after today, it is the cold winter, and he must make plans for Ye Minghuan as soon as possible.
Ye Shaochuan always arrived early, and when he arrived, there were only a few people in the square in front of the main hall. Among the princes, only Ling Xuanlan arrived.
He stepped forward to greet Ye Shaochuan, and then said, "Guogong wants to report the corruption case to his father today?" ”
Ye Shaochuan nodded, "Exactly." ”
"Guogong has always been upright, and he also asked Guogong to report the truth." Ling Xuanlan arched his hand.
Ye Shaochuan narrowed his eyes, "Oh? Your Highness is willing to give it up? ”
"They are the ones who endanger the court and slaughter the people of my immortal realm, and this king will not tolerate them."
Ye Shaochuan was a little surprised when he heard this answer, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is dedicated to the consideration of the fairy world, which is really the blessing of the people of my fairy world. ”
Ling Xuanlan laughed twice, and said, "When you investigated the case before, the queen mother and uncle were offended, please bear with me." ”
Hearing this, Ye Shaochuan remembered the stumbling block made by the emperor and the queen's party when he investigated the case before, and a trace of sigh crossed his heart, "It's okay, I didn't take it to heart." It's just that since this matter is a matter of the court, please solve it in the court, and don't involve other people. ”
Ling Xuanlan was stunned for a moment, knowing in his heart that Ye Shaochuan was afraid that his mother would retaliate against Ye Minghuan, so he immediately said, "This is natural, and it won't involve anyone else." ”
Ye Shaochuan nodded, and then he was relieved.
About half an hour later, the hundred officials came, the internal officials beat the morning drum, and the hundred officials entered the main hall in turn.
After three bows and nine bows, today's deliberation began. The first thing that happened today was the official corruption case.
"Emperor Qizun, regarding the corruption case of Zhenbei Xianjun, Liuhou and others, all the physical witnesses have been confessed." Ye Shaochuan bowed and said, and handed the fold in his hand to the little inner supervisor to hand it to the emperor.
Emperor Zun looked at it roughly, and said, "If you want to criminal, you can be imprisoned?" ”
"Still on the hunt."
"Okay, you step up the pursuit, and when all the criminals are caught, you will be the main punishment." Emperor Zun closed the fold and knocked on the table again in warning.
The younger brother of the emperor, Jiang Rongfeng, the head of the dynasty, was anxious when he heard this. After all, the main culprit in this case is his right-hand man.
The official system of the fairy world is somewhat similar to that of the human world, but there are also improvements.
Descendants of the imperial lineage like the Yan family, those who have military merits will be crowned as the prince of the country and eat ten thousand households. And families like the Ye family, the Nanji family and the Han family, who have made meritorious contributions for generations, will also be crowned as the prince of the country, but if they do not enter the court as officials, this title will not have much role or influence.
And like the Jiang family and the Li family, most of those who have relied on the examination to gain fame and fame in the court for many years to reach the position of the prime minister will not work hard for more than three generations, so they need to rely on the family that has inherited the lord for generations or stand in the harem in order to continue to consolidate their position.
And there are also some talents in the fairy world who are outstanding in immortal power and are particularly outstanding in a certain aspect, such as Si Huo Si Shui Shenjun. These immortal monarchs will enter the court to serve. There are also those who ascend to immortality on one side, and there must be people on one side who practice, such as Yuanxiu Xianjun and others. Most of these people will not choose to enter the court as officials, but because they are the head of an immortal, they still have some right to speak in the court.
This has always maintained the balance of the immortal court.
In order to keep the family from falling, the family of the lord needs to rely on officials such as Xianjun and the prime minister to pave the way for their descendants and let their descendants enter the court as officials.
Prime Minister and other court officials, for the sake of their own status, need to rely on the support of the Immortal Monarch and the Raider family.
The Immortal Monarch needs to rely on the first two to ensure that he can always have a greater say in the court, so that he can continue to better protect his own people.
Three-legged, indispensable.
And now, the Jiang family's most important Zhenbei Immortal Jun and Liuhou are about to be imprisoned for corruption cases, which is a great loss for themselves.
Zhenbei Immortal Monarch still has a lot of say in the crowd of Immortal Monarchs. And the Marquis is also a hereditary title, although it is not as good as the Duke of Guo, but at least it is inherited from the imperial lineage.
Without these two, not to mention that some of the immortal monarchs who joined their henchmen because of the pressure of Zhenbei Immortal Monarch will no longer be attached to themselves, and some important officials who are better with the Marquis will also be moved by the wind and sway. If he couldn't protect these two, then these people might become neutrals again, or even used by Ling Xuanche and his party.
Jiang Rongfeng thought about this, anxious, but he couldn't. Now, one can only hope that these two will escape as far away as possible.
