Chapter Seventy-Five: Beheading Officials and Suppressing the Court (4)

"Ye Shangshu has arrived!"

Jie Wenwu was trembling, sitting in the corner of the cell, and suddenly raised his eyelids, only to see Ye Yongjia wearing an official uniform, gradually walking from a dark distance.

"Your name is ...... Shangshu? Jie Wenwu was a little relieved, but also a little apprehensive.

Ye Yongjia replied with a straight face: "I am only temporarily replacing your official position, if the court proves that the lord is not guilty, I will go back to be my squire." ”

Hearing this, Jie Wenwu raised his head in surprise, his eyes full of longing.

"But it's impossible." Ye Yongjia turned around, his hands behind his back clutching a thin document that he had written by hand on the day of the ceremony.

Jie Wenwu's heart suddenly turned cold. His eyes stared at the letter empty, his breathing gradually became rapid, and his whole face turned pale: "So...... You're going to kill me? ”

"Jiegong, they didn't kill you because of this ......" Ye Yongjia's hands trembled slightly, "But I brought this thing to ask you about it." ”

Jie Wenwu sneered lightly: "What is there to ask about this matter?" Won't it be possible to let these displaced people coerce the government? If they are allowed to come in, it is difficult to disturb the capital. Tinglong, if you think about it, once the place is affected, you can open a warehouse for relief, and the local government will also prepare rations to send them back to their hometown, why bother? It is clear that a small group of people are taking advantage of the opportunity to make trouble...... Clear enough, what else do you want me to say! ”

"Suke-sama!" Ye Yongjia suddenly turned around and scared Jie Wenwu into shivering again, "Do you still think that the current world is too peaceful!" Shandong and Henan provinces have been hit by disasters, and their scope is so wide, but it is said that there are only these thousands of displaced people, do you really believe it? If everyone lives and works in peace and contentment, and no one is displaced, why did they deceive their superiors and subordinates in the first place! His eyes were red, and his shouts were kept low.

Seeing that he was forcing each other, Jie Wenwu shook his head and sighed: "Even if these things seem to you to be hurtful and unreasonable, I am already a dying person, and I treat you as if I were my own, and I have never done anything to be sorry for Tinglong...... Can't you just let me look at the present and listen to a good word, even a word......"

"I ......"

Ye Yongjia's voice was hoarse, he took a step back, made a deep snort, and said in a choked voice: "As an official of this dynasty, for the sake of the country, I want to figure out some things...... But as Ye Yongjia, I am grateful for my support along the way, and you are my eternal benefactor. I still remember that bell, that book of soldiers...... I'll keep it in mind. ”

With that, he slowly raised his arm and said behind him, "Take it away." Although the voice was too weak, the soldiers understood his intentions and stepped forward to frame Jiewenwu.

Ye Yongjia's tears rained down and he no longer raised his head.

Following Liu Zhennian's instructions, Yan Liang convicted Jiewenwu of a capital crime of disrespect. Considering that he was an important minister of the state, he asked Eunuch Lu to give him a rope and let him hang himself. Because of his fat body and inconvenient movements, Lu Xinzhong thought he was very slow, so he called two sergeants, strangled him alive, and then pushed him out of the palace and buried him in the wilderness at will.

Liu Mian, who conspired with Jiewenwu, escaped, he was not named by the emperor himself, so the crime was not serious, but he was demoted and transferred to Beijing; Chen Tongpao and others did not participate, but because of the listing of the performance, they were also accused by Dali Temple of forming a party for personal gain, and they were so frightened that the officials put on several large pleas before they were able to be pardoned and deducted for three months.

In this season when the Liu Party was in full swing to arrest people, naturally no one dared to say a word about the new deal, and they all echoed Niu Fengxiang's clever decision--so, the dusty new deal opened again in a bloody storm.

"What? Tell me to send someone? ”

Ye Yongjia was tying a black gauze hat in front of the mirror, taking care of the newly worn Shangshu official uniform.

"Yes," Cai Xianqing walked into the house and slightly covered the door, "Niu Feng said that Lord Ye is already the secretary of the military department, and the arms of the imperial court are also inappropriate, so it is not appropriate to go far to the border, which will only increase the danger." ”

"He's wrong," Ye Yongjia smiled slightly and turned around, "If I don't go to see it myself, how can I find out the condition of the new army?" How can you prescribe the right medicine? Isn't the New Deal just a piece of paper? ”

"You're right," Cai Xianqing clapped his hands and said, "No matter what official we are promoted or what burden we bear, this time, you and I will go!" No one is missing! ”

Niu Yuan saw the two of them standing in front of him together, and he felt a headache. He rubbed his temples helplessly, and asked, "Lord Ye, you don't plan to let Cai Shilang follow, right?" ”

Ye Yongjia glanced at Cai Xianqing hesitantly, and then replied, "Yes." ”

"Ah, it's better not to be promoted to this official!" Niu Yuan smiled bitterly, "That's good, the two commanders of the military department have gone to Xuanhua, and the ministry doesn't care!" ”

"Fengxiang," Cai Xianqing hurriedly surrendered his hand, "The two of us have been patrolling the border for a long time, and we already know everything about the border passes. It's better to grieve the adults and help take care of it. ”

"Okay, good," Niu Yuan nodded, "Cai Shilang's tongue is really unforgiving!" ”

"How dare you, how dare you." Cai Xianqing lowered his head, and his face was quite proud.

"Before you leave, I have a few more commands," Niu Yuan stood up and said, "The meal must be eaten in one bite, and things must be done step by step." Although those guys have reined in a lot because of the civil and military affairs, they are always resentful in their hearts, not convinced. If you provoke them again, there will be a lot of trouble, and everyone will be exhausted. ”

He didn't seem to understand Ye Yongjia too much, and explained more patiently: "Of course, this strength is not easy to grasp, I understand it very well." This matter is related to the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Households, the Ministry of Industry is responsible for the transportation of raw materials, and the Ministry of Households is responsible for the delivery of silver. Especially in the household department, although a Liu Mian was removed and a new Zeng Liang was introduced, they were all for the benefit of the department, and they would never give you half a cent kindly. As long as there is a concession on the money, so that everyone has little opinion, the new policy can be carried out safely. ”

"This one has ...... Lord Zeng, where did it come from? Would it be better for me to meet him? Ye Yongjia asked one by one.

"This Zeng Liang, who was born in a big family, was selected as a tanhua four years ago. This person was only thirty-three years old, and he was deeply loved by Prime Minister Liu Cheng, so he gave him a jade sword at that time, hoping that he would serve for it. This person has been an official in the Ministry of Rites in recent years, and because he often officiates at the ceremony, the emperor also appreciates him, so he chose to go to the Ministry of Household to serve as a scholar. ”

"Since he is close to Prime Minister Liu Cheng, he is much more accommodating."

Niu Yuan shook his head a few times and said with a smile: "Accommodating or not, you will know when you see it." ”
