Chapter 225: Controversy in the court!
Just when the Jingzhou case was spreading in Kyoto, Jiang Han had returned to Kyoto under the escort of Chen Liang and the Shenwu Army.
As soon as they arrived at the city gate, Jiang Feng, Xu Zhongqiu, Qin Fen and others had already learned the news in advance and came to meet them.
"Big brother, Brother Xu, Brother Qin." Jiang Han said.
Jiang Feng stretched out his big palm and patted him on the shoulder, and said, "Han'er, you can go back to the house with confidence, wait for the book mountain to learn the sea with peace of mind, and the eldest brother will take care of other things!" ”
Jiang Feng did not blame Jiang Han for shooting the Black Water Army, nor did he ask about what happened in Jingzhou, but let him go home.
Xu Zhongqiu said: "Brother Jiang is righteous! I, Xu Zhongqiu, admire that my limbs are on the ground, if anyone dares to move Brother Jiang, they just want to move me Xu someone! ”
Qin Fen said: "Jiang Han, my Zhao Guogong Mansion will also be on your side!" ”
Jiang Han nodded, and arched his hand at them: "Jiang Han, thank you!" No matter what the result is this time, Jiang Han has no regrets. ”
"Good! This is the good man of my Jiang family! Jiang Feng laughed loudly.
The news of Jiang Han's return to Beijing spread quickly, and many people in Kyoto had some thoughts at this moment, and there were some small movements on all sides.
Some people think that Jiang Han has made meritorious contributions in solving the Jingzhou case, some people praise Jiang Han for eliminating harm for the people, which is a righteous act, and some people think that he shot the Black Water Army and violated the law.
At this time, Emperor Xia Qi held a court meeting in the Ziji Palace, and officials above the fifth rank stepped into the hall and waited silently for a quarter of an hour, and Li Huiming, who was wearing a dragon robe, was late.
Li Huiming looked majestic, but his face was haggard, and his eyes also contained anger.
All the princes were slightly surprised, this Emperor Xia Qi can not only fight on the horse, but also govern the country when he gets off the horse, he has always been a dragon and ruddy, but today he is rarely a little haggard.
But because the Jingzhou case is also bothersome?
Some of the ministers looked at each other with awe-inspiring hearts.
Emperor Xia Qi sat on the dragon chair and said in a deep voice: "In the Jingzhou case, Zhu Qing must have known that the officials of Jingzhou, for their own selfishness, actually colluded with the evil way to use people to refine human pills, involving a population of more than 6,000 people. Since the founding of the Great Xia, there has been no such brutality! It is indignant to God, and heaven and earth do not tolerate it! Zhu Qing thinks that how to judge! ”
Emperor Xia Qi's voice was low, and his tone was full of anger.
The secretary of the ministry was in his heart, Your Majesty, I'm afraid that I'm going to kill someone, I'm just afraid that this time I'm going to have a lot of heads!
At this time, the Shangshu of the Criminal Department came out and said respectfully: "Jingzhou officials colluded with evil ways and used people to refine pills, which is indeed a heinous crime!" Now Kyoto is even more popular, but the state-level main culprit officials have been Ling Chi by Jiang Han, Weichen thinks that the rest of the officials in Jingzhou can be forgiven, after all, these people are not the main culprits, they can be severely punished, Jingzhou is in ruins, and these people are still needed at this time......"
Emperor Xia Qi got up slowly, looked down at the ministers with cold eyes, and said in a deep voice: "Forgiveness? How do these well-dressed beasts behave like this? Do you want me to forgive them? You should ask the people who have been refined into pills if they will forgive this group of well-dressed beasts! ”
Emperor Xia Qi's voice was not loud, but it was full of coldness, so that the ministers did not dare to silence it.
The six Shangshu looked at each other silently, and their hearts froze, they expected His Majesty to be angry, but they didn't expect the anger to this extent.
"Behead all the officials above the ninth rank in Jingzhou, along with the three clans, and hang their heads in the city for seven days!" Emperor Xia Qi said in a deep voice.
When the voice fell, the ministers were all shocked.
They never thought that Emperor Xia Qi's disposal would be so serious, not only to behead the officials above the ninth rank in Jingzhou, but also to refuse to let go of the three clans.
You must know that Jingzhou contains more than 20 counties, large and small, and if this is cut off, there will be at least more than 1,000 heads!
"Your Majesty, don't kill so many people! Jingzhou has experienced a massacre, and at this moment everything is in ruins, if so many officials are killed, I am afraid that it will be easy to shake the foundation of Jingzhou. The official secretary spoke out to stop him.
"Although there are people who consume pills in Jingzhou, most of them are innocent, and I hope Your Majesty will think twice!" Song Guogong also came out at this moment.
"I hope Your Majesty will think twice!" Zuo Governor Yushi Zhang Hua looked at Song Guogong and also said.
Emperor Xia Qi said with a cold face: "There is such a bloody case in Jingzhou, which is enough to shake the world!" I want to give an explanation to the people of Jingzhou and the people of the world! I have made up my mind, don't stop you! ”
The ministers were all silent, and they looked at Li Huiming's murderous appearance and knew that no matter who obstructed him this time, he would kill the officials of Jingzhou.
If you speak again, I am afraid that I will anger Your Majesty.
At the moment, no one spoke out to dissuade them.
The official said: "Your Majesty, that Xue Mubai, the Duke of Kuiguo, broke through Jingzhou City, and ordered the Black Water Army to slaughter more than 40,000 people in Jingzhou City. ”
After disposing of the Jingzhou alchemy case, the official Shangshu Wenji introduced the second thing, the Kui Guogong Massacre of the City!
If the Jingzhou alchemy official shook the government and the opposition, then the Kui Guogong massacre case shook the world!
Moreover, the reason why Kui Guogong slaughtered the city has a great relationship with the Jingzhou alchemy case.
At this time, Song Guogong also came out of the ranks, and said loudly: "Kui Guogong's move is against the way of heaven, and the heavens are angry and resentful, and he actually slaughtered all the people of Jingzhou, and his crime should be punished!" Although Xue Mubai has been ambushed, his family is still there, and his majesty is asked to put Xue Mubai's family in prison and behead him on a certain day to pay tribute to the more than 40,000 people in Jingzhou City! At the same time, the military power was recovered and 200,000 horses under his command were collected. ”
Zhang Hua, the Governor of the Left Governor, and Qin Zhiqiu, the secretary of the Criminal Department, also echoed and spoke: "Please Your Majesty will put Xue Mubai's family in prison and behead him on a certain day!" Seek justice for the people of Jingzhou! ”
At this time, even the crown prince came out and said: "Please ask my father to behead Xue Mubai's whole family and seek justice for the people of Jingzhou!" ”
Regarding the handling of Xue Mubai, the Chinese courtiers of the dynasty were unexpectedly unified, and even the crown prince opened his mouth to echo it.
Emperor Xia Qi looked down at the courtiers with a cold face, but a hint of mockery flashed in his eyes.
At this time, Xu Yannian, the Duke of Ningguo, flashed out of the ranks and said: "Your Majesty, Xue Mubai's crime is unforgivable, but his wife and daughter may not know about it, otherwise they would not have placed him in Kyoto, and his wife Fang Qiuying was also a ranger when she was young, and she made countless meritorious contributions to Great Xia. ”
The reason why Xu Yannian pleaded so much was that he was also familiar with Fang Qiuying when he was young, and he didn't want to see her being connected because of this.
Song Guogong immediately sneered: "Xu Yannian, Xue Mubai slaughtered more than 40,000 people in the city, the crime is unforgivable, without the three clans, it is already the emperor's grace, what is your intention to intercede for his wife and daughter?" Do you still want to retract your confession for Xue Mubai? ”
Xu Yannian had long known that He Liansong would refute him, and snorted: "He Liansong, are you lame in your eyes or have a disease in your ears?" When will the old man retract his confession for Xue Mubai? Xue Mubai committed this act of slaughtering the city, the sin was heavy, the old man wanted to chop him up, but there was a debtor and a master, Xue Mubai's wife and daughter had already been abandoned in Kyoto as an abandoned son, killing his wife and daughter, what is the point? ”
He Liansong shouted: "Xue Mubai should punish the three clans for his crimes, if he doesn't kill him, how can he strictly enforce the laws of Great Xia!" Xu Yannian, are you questioning Your Majesty's decision when you say this? ”
Xu Yannian said: "When did I question His Majesty's decision? He Laogou, don't spew blood! ”
He Liansong sneered: "Your Majesty has just issued an order to kill the officials above the ninth rank in Jingzhou and their three clans, according to what you said, that is, Your Majesty is wrong?" ”
"I ...... You ......" Xu Yannian was speechless for a while, not knowing how to argue.
"That's it! This is the court, not a place for you to quarrel! Emperor Xia Qi said in a deep voice.
Although the two were unwilling, they still stopped scolding.
The official department said: "When the Great Xia was founded, Fang Qiuying also made great contributions, it is better to send someone to investigate thoroughly, if he participated in the Jingzhou case, then there is nothing to say, behead the public." If she is innocent, she will take back the decree of the Lady of the Kingdom and make her whole clan not participate in the imperial examination. ”
Wen Ji proposed a compromise.
Originally, Xue Mubai's wife and daughter, whether innocent or not, could not escape death, but Fang Qiuying also fought for Great Xia at the beginning of the founding of the country, so she was dealt with like this.
Emperor Xia Qi said: "Just follow the words of jealousy!" ”
At this moment, another person came out of the queue and said in a loud voice: "Your Majesty, the minister has something to do!" ”
Everyone followed the prestige, only to see that it was for Tang to discuss the matter. In the matter, it forms a system of officials with the imperial history of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, which complements each other, although the grade is not high, but the power is not small.
It's a professional troll, who squirts whoever he catches.
And their favorite object is the emperor, once the emperor does something wrong, he will swim like a shark smelling blood and bite it to death.
If the emperor is angry and wants to kill them.
That's even better, the opportunity to make a name for yourself in history has come.
Tang Yi came out and said loudly: "The minister wants to impeach Jiang Han, the second son of the Duke of Weiguo, trample on the laws of Great Xia, and transgress the rules of the imperial court, not only killing Jingzhou Assassin Shi, Changshi and others, but also ordering the shooting of 50,000 blackwater troops who have surrendered!" There is no king's law, and it is rampant! Please Your Majesty quickly arrest and behead the guards! Otherwise, it will not only damage the majesty of the imperial court, but also shake the country's foundation. ”
There was a commotion in the Purple Pole Hall suddenly, and many officials looked at each other, and their faces changed slightly.
The Jingzhou alchemy case was discovered by Jiang Han, and it was indeed a great achievement, but he did indeed kill 50,000 Black Water Army, and it seemed natural that he would be impeached at this moment.
However, judging from this incident, Jiang Han's cracking of the Jingzhou alchemy case will inevitably damage the interests of some people, and some people will naturally take this opportunity to kill him.
Immediately, Tang Yi listed several charges against Jiang Han, such as Ling Chi officials, brutal methods, such as the officials of the three divisions clearly dissuaded, but Jiang Han directly ignored the army with his hands......
The list of crimes is enough to kill Jiang Han three or four times.
Zhang Hua, the Imperial Governor of the Left, also came out at this moment: "Jiang Han crossed the imperial power and shot the Black Water Army, he simply has no king's law and no king's eyes!" Your Majesty, please capture and behead him! Otherwise, it will damage the face of the court! ”
With the end of the Zuo Governor Yushi, many people are full of joy in their hearts, impeaching Jiang Han with the Metropolitan Procuratorate in the matter, and also detaining the crime of seeing no king, this is to completely choke him to death!
