Chapter 45: Grace and Might

Xu Jing, who was sitting on the dragon chair, looked at Siye with a murderous aura, as if he had come out of the sheath, and the sword was extremely powerful.

In front of this majesty, none of the hundred officials dared to take the lead in speaking, and all of them lowered their heads and did not look at them.

Because of today's early dynasty, the most powerful prime minister among the hundred officials, Xiao Daoling, did not go to the court, but took leave due to illness.

Everyone knows that Xiao Daoling's body and bones have been excellent for many years, how could he suddenly fall ill on the day of the opening of the dynasty?

It is more likely that Prime Minister Xiao is not willing to confront this emperor who is now in his prime, and chooses to escape.

There is only one thing in the hearts of the hundred officials: Xiao Daoling, who is the prime minister, has to avoid His Majesty's edge, what can they do with these officials who are far less powerful than Xiao Daoling?

"What? Are you dumb? Or is my words not worth worrying about? ”

Xu Jing looked at the silent crowd in the audience and asked with a sneer.

"Your Majesty, it's not that we want to interfere with Your Majesty's feelings. It's just that cases involving court officials above the second rank should be handed over to Dali Temple. This has been the law of Daqian for many years. ”

Situ Zhao slowly walked out of the team on the left, knelt on the ground and tried to defend Xu Jing.

"Handed over to Dali Temple? Where is Dali Temple? ”

Xu Jing sneered and shouted at the crowd on the left.

Soon, a big fat man with a fat head and ears of nearly 300 catties squeezed out of the pile: "Minister Hu Yong see Your Majesty!" ”

"I ask you, if this case is handed over to Dali Temple, how long will it take to find out this case?"

Xu Jing lowered his head and stared at Hu Yong and asked coldly.

The fat man Hu Yong looked at Situ Zhao, who was kneeling in front of him, and hesitated, not knowing how to respond to Xu Jing.

His eyes rolled around, as if he was looking among the crowd for an official who could give him some tips.

But all the officials quickly looked away at the moment of eye contact, and they had no intention of defending them.

"Minister..... The minister didn't know that this matter was widely implicated, and he was afraid that he would definitely not be able to do it without half a year. ”

Hu Yong trembled and thought of an answer that was not far away, which was to blurt out.

Xu Jing's eyes were a little sharper, and his tone was much more serious: "Half a year? ”

"Your Majesty, it really can't be broken, the corruption case is widely involved in the prefects and prefectures of Daqian."

"If you rashly arrest them all, the whole cadre will come to a standstill! At that time, without the jurisdiction of the government, there would inevitably be chaos in various places! ”

Hu Yong was afraid that Xu Jing would fall his anger on his head, so he raised his head and argued loudly.

"Messy? I remember, isn't there still a Jinshi and champion in the Hanlin Academy in recent years? Just grasp it, it's a big deal to appoint these newcomers to take office. ”

"I'll give you a month, can you do it?"

Xu Jing waved his hand, not caring at all about these so-called implicated cadres.

For Xu Jing, allowing this group of moths to continue to live is the biggest crisis.

Corrupt officials and corrupt officials bury the roots of weeds deep in the mud, and as long as they are given a chance, they will be like weeds that cannot be removed, and the spring breeze blows and grows again.

Everything Xu Jing is doing now is to clean it all at once!

It is also necessary to give a warning to future generations of officials, if you dare to be corrupt, you will be a member of the frontier and will not escape death!

In the future, when someone wants to embezzle, they must think carefully about whether the head on their shoulder is enough to cut off.

"Your Majesty, the minister can't do it!"

When Xu Jing said that month, Hu Yong was covered in cold sweat.

In such a short period of time, he didn't care about the operation of hundreds of officials, Hu Yong knew very well that this was simply the new emperor's reluctance to hand over the matter to Dali Temple and deliberately make it difficult.

Hu Yong also borrowed the slope to get off the donkey, and happily satisfied Xu Jing's idea.

"How? Now, Dali Siqing thinks that he is unable to deal with this matter. You people, do you still have objections? ”

Xu Jing sneered, looked at these officials and asked.

"Your Majesty, even if Dali Siqing is unable to resolve this matter within a month, officials at all levels should jointly handle the case."

"Such a major case cannot be handed over to the Department of Suppression. Your Majesty should know that the edict is simply a place of torture. ”

"God knows if those innocent officials will be tortured to death in such places?"

Situ Zhao raised his head and looked at Xu Jing, without any intention of retreating.

"Why did the Captain say that? Will I use this to purge dissidents? ”

Xu Jing's eyes flickered, and he looked at Situ Zhao's tone getting cold.

The atmosphere in the huge Jinluan Hall was extremely tense, and the hundred officials all held their breath and carefully observed the changes between the two.

"Don't dare, the minister categorically did not question His Majesty's heart, what the minister is worried about is just that the Jinyi Guard will use this to expand its power and eliminate dissidents."

Situ Zhao finally lowered his head and answered Xu Jing's question seriously.

Xu Jing smiled lightly: "Taiwei's thoughts, how could I not have them?" I already had an idea, and I passed it on to Xu Sen. ”

"Xu Sen? Who is this? ”

"It's like..... It's the little county that told the heavens, right? ”

Hearing the name Xu Sen, many officials couldn't help but be surprised.

They were extremely unfamiliar with the name, and they had no idea what it was.

Only some of the officials who had the deepest understanding of the matter suddenly remembered who Xu Sen was.

"Minister, Xu Sen, the magistrate of Qinghe County, see Your Majesty!"

Xu Sen, who was already waiting outside the hall, strode into the Jinluan Hall and knelt on Situ Zhao's side.

Xu Sen in front of the officials was full of energy and energy.

Situ Zhao glanced sideways at Xu Sen and couldn't help frowning, this young man in front of him seemed to be quite trusted by the new emperor, could it be the future team deliberately cultivated by the new emperor?

Xu Sennai was the official who risked his life to report the matter. I will give him the authority to investigate the matter thoroughly, with the assistance of the Jinyi Guard. In this way, I believe you will no longer have objections, right? ”

Xu Jing looked at Baiguan and asked coldly.

"Your Majesty, a small magistrate, I'm afraid I can't afford this at all! Please reconsider, Your Majesty! ”

Situ Zhao didn't give up, stood up again and shouted at Xu Jing.

Xu Jing looked at Situ Zhao with a little more murderous intent in his eyes.

Situ Zhao refuted Xu Jing's words again and again, making Xu Jing unbearable.

Such an old bone who only knows the opposite tone is a-stirring stick in the court, and it has no effect at all.

"I have long understood that Xu Sen was the new champion five years ago. In that year, he won the love of the emperor with his outstanding literary talents, and was able to enter the Hanlin Academy. ”

"It's a pity that he has no power and no power in the Hanlin Academy, and he doesn't know how to form a party for personal gain. In the end, he was appointed to Qinghe County as a small Qipinzhi County. ”

"Xu Sen is the best choice regardless of his knowledge and background, I want to know, how many people form a party for personal gain, and do not collude with you?"

Xu Jing sneered and read out Xu Sen's background word by word.

Everyone present couldn't help but be surprised, they couldn't imagine that a small Duzhi County would actually be a champion!

Xu Jing suddenly single-handedly made Situ Zhaodu speechless, and he was powerless to refute.
