"Min Shouzheng and other suspected fraud in the field still have to be played, because we can't make the court feel that we are behind the slaughter of these people."

Du Ruojia said.

Sun Yan said: "That's nature! It's a pity that one was missed. ”

"Even if you miss one, you won't be able to find anything."

"Killing them is just to deter other cold soldiers, even if the Jinyi Guard is so powerful that he has eyeliner in these lines, then he can only find out the Haoyou behind him, can he still find out the body of us rogue officials?"

"Besides, even if he Jinyiwei finds out the Haoyou behind him, it is estimated that before he can protect it, those Haoyou will take the initiative to kill their own mouths."

Du Ruojia replied.

Sun Yan nodded.

It didn't take long for Min Shouzheng to learn about this from Yang Yingkui, and asked, "What did you say, the Han Shi who made trouble were all killed?" ”

Yang Yingkui nodded: "It is said that it was caused by the bandits entering Yingtianfu." ”

As he spoke, Yang Yingkui smiled and said, "Of course, Duke Min should know that in fact, it is our eunuch clan who is deterring those cold warriors. ”

Min Shouzheng was silent for a long time and then asked, "Is it really shocking?" What if the rest of the Fallen Colds continue to make trouble and disturb the above? ”

"When they make up the record, they record everything they can record, and naturally they can't say anything more!"

"Anyway, the number of supplements is no longer enough to affect the overall situation of the children of the eunuchs, and let a few more Han scholars rank first, doesn't it just show that this township test is actually fair?"

"What's more, the Luodi Hanshi who didn't go to make trouble are naturally mostly tame and honest people, and they can be guided to be our people after they are recruited."

Yang Yingkui said.

Min Shouzheng nodded: "Reasonable." ”

And then, Min Shouzheng really did it.

Because they didn't follow the governor Yamen to complain, they didn't kill the poor scholars, and then, they were really selected by Min Shouzheng into the quota for the township test supplement.

But the results were not as good as they expected.

The time went back to a month ago, that is, in October of the sixteenth year of Wanli.

Because of the climate of the Xiaoice River, Jingshi has begun to snow frequently at this time, and the city is plain, and the court hall has begun to become more and more quiet at this time.

This is mainly related to the fact that after the price of the silver dollar fell, there was no major turmoil in the court.

After all, both the officials of the new and old parties are now focusing on the value of the subscription coupons, so the court is much more peaceful than before.

On the contrary, at the local level, there is still a lot of turmoil.

Twenty years have passed since the Great Longwan Reform, and a large number of well-to-do citizens, workers, and yeoman farmers have begun to frequently fight with the original landlords and gentry over the right to speak at the grassroots level and for political and economic interests.

Even the new strata of more and more scale began to be dissatisfied with the social order dominated by big landlords and big bureaucrats, and they also wanted to participate more in the struggle for political power and compete for more right to speak.

The conversation turned back.

In October of the sixteenth year of Wanli, Zhu Yijun discussed the matter again with Shen Shixing and others because of the continuous turmoil in the local area.

"It is not enough to make the local tyrants afraid of the imperial court program just because of the reform of the official system, we have to use the new groups, more detailed and struggle-conscious groups, to further suppress the tyrants, so that they can learn to respect and revere, and they already have natural advantages in financial management, and they cannot be allowed to have advantages in the competition for power."

As Zhu Yijun spoke, he instructed Zhang Jingxiu: "Jinyiwei here sends more people from Xingming Academy to organize movements in the local area and use them to promote new rites and new culture. ”

Then, Zhu Yijun instructed Qi Jiguang again: "Officers and soldiers are not allowed to participate in the field, and it is strictly ordered that the commanders of all departments must not do things beyond their authority." ”

Immediately, Zhu Yijun instructed Shen Shixing: "Order the officials at all levels to exercise their powers in accordance with the law and not to come nonsense." ”

"Yes!"

And not long after Zhu Yijun gave such an order, he received a secret message sent by Chen Zhongyong, a member of the natural life.

"Cheating in the field!"

Zhu Yijun therefore looked at Shen Shixing: "I will never allow cheating in the scientific field, if you can't even do the imperial examination fairly, then I really don't know how big a mess it will be!" ”

Shen Shixing said: "Your Majesty, it is difficult to verify the fraud in today's scientific field, and it is not illegal in the criminal law when all fraudsters show favoritism; ”

"If the talented articles of the children of the eunuchs have already been circulated by the Qingliu Hanlin officials, once the time comes, the chief examiner will take it as long as he sees that his style is in line, and if the great talent articles of the children of a poor family have already been circulated, once the career is raised, the chief examiner will depose him as long as he remembers his style;"

"Whether it is in the middle or not, there are reasons, such as what article is unique or too out-of-the-box, but the essence is because of its different origins."

"No matter how difficult it is, you have to check it, and if you find out as much as you can, you can strictly deal with it, and make an example of it."

Zhu Yijun said: "I have already asked Jinyiwei to pay more attention to the fraud case in the science field, I don't believe it, they can't find out the slightest clue!" ”

"Even if, as the master said, these fraudsters use particularly obscure methods, that is, there is no direct selling of exam questions and specific favoritism, there will always be one or two fish that slip through the net, as presented by Chen Zhongyong, it can be a good evidence."

Zhu Yijun therefore instructed: "The Zhenfu Division sent a special trip to arrest the person reported by Chen Zhongyong, collect the evidence, and protect the witnesses." ”

"Yes!"

And a month and a half after Zhu Yijun made this arrangement, Jin Yiwei and Ying Tianfu arrived in Beijing by urgent delivery almost at the same time about the slaughter of Han Shi.

"The minister pleaded for the crime, Jinyiwei failed to react in time this time, and found out in advance that there were traitors who slaughtered the soldiers, and a large number of scholars were killed."

Zhang Jingxiu even directly asked for guilt during the performance.

Zhu Yijun only sneered: "What a coincidence, I saw the governor come back, and he was slaughtered!" ”

"Such a coincidental thing, if it was the governor who colluded with Haoyou's temporary idea, unless the local Jinyi Wei was also involved in this matter, where could he find out in advance?"

Zhu Yijun looked at Zhang Jingxiu as he said and said:

"So, after all, maybe the other party has a temporary murderous intent, I will give you a chance to make meritorious contributions, both inside and outside, who dares to be so bold!"

Zhang Jingxiu said yes.

Then, Zhu Yijun asked Shen Shixing again: "What is Governor Yingtian's explanation for this?" Luo Di Hanshi was killed as soon as he saw him come back, how could he have to give an explanation to the court! ”

"Ying Tian's governor and the inspector both asked for guilt, saying that they didn't expect this to happen, and they felt guilty of dereliction of duty, and said that there might be fraud in this year's Ying Tianxiang test, which angered Haoyou, made Haoyou retaliate, and instructed Jiangyang thieves to slaughter Hanshi."

Shen Shixing said at this time.

Zhu Yijun pulled down his face: "Is this a deception without clairvoyance?!" But they know that it was Haoyou's doing, but didn't they themselves participate? I don't believe that they are so incompetent that Lian Haoyou can't stop killing people in broad daylight! Put them in jail first! ”
