Chapter 122, Thunder Disposition
For the behavior of these families, if you want to solve it, there is only one way, and that is to kill without mercy.
Of course, the emperor would not mess around like this, so he had to kill them one by one.
The most important thing for them is to solve Du Mingsi first.
As the saying goes, if you go outside, you must first settle inside, which is exactly this truth.
Du Mingsi has been too honest lately, so honest that it's a little too wrong.
Du Mingsi was waiting for the family to make a move, and he only needed to choose to wait and see how the family and the emperor fought on the sidelines.
The emperor did have a headache, and at this time, Su Fang said to the emperor: "Your Majesty, the Ministry of Officials and the Ministry of Punishment, the current situation has stabilized. ”
"The officials who took office are almost all about to run in, although there are still shortcomings, but they have to be given some time."
"Since Du Mingsi is so calm, then let's go further and see how Du Mingsi handles it."
When the emperor heard this, he asked, "How to go further?" ”
"Aren't there still four departments to work with?"
"Recently, a lot of officials have been recalled from all over the country, and these people have been preparing for a while, and it's time for them to take power."
Su Fang said to the emperor.
The emperor understood, smiled, and said: "This is indeed a good way, Du Mingsi does not move, it does not mean that we cannot force him to move." ”
"If you let him watch the play, and wait until he joins forces with those families to deal with me, then I will really be at a disadvantage."
"The emperor is wise, anyway, Jinyiwei has a lot of evidence of their crimes, as long as one of them is moved, the rest will be in danger." The Su side replied.
The officials in the court, from the first rank to the third grade, are all from the Jiangnan area.
Who would believe that they had nothing to do with those families?
These people, led by Du Mingsi, seek benefits for the Jiangnan family all year round.
Even if they retire, the people who can be promoted are all Jiangnan children, and as for the children of the Hanmen and people from other places, they can't enter the core of the imperial court at all.
For a long time, they were united by official protection or marriage.
Between them, a series of chains of interests have long been formed.
If you want to eradicate it, you must be ruthless and end it in one pot to completely eradicate the root cause of the trouble.
Although this will make Great Qin break his muscles and bones, it is indeed something that must be done for the future of the Great Qin Empire.
Every change is a reshuffle, and it needs to be stained with blood and sacrifice.
Su Fang said to the emperor: "The emperor's ministers suggest that either they don't move, since they do, then they must be quick and ruthless, and don't give them any chance to fight back." ”
"Don't even give them a chance to breathe and react, of course, this will definitely make Mao Jiarong's commander receive a lot of impeachment, but this is also the best way."
Su Fang had already said this to Mao Jiarong, so when Su Fang finished saying this, Mao Jiarong immediately stood up and said:
"Your Majesty, everything the minister has been given by the emperor, as long as you can help the emperor, as long as you can work for the welfare of the people of Daqin, even if the minister dies, you will definitely regret it."
"Therefore, the minister implores the emperor to hand over all these things to the ministers to do, and any consequences will be borne by the ministers."
The emperor looked at Mao Jiarong and said, "This will make you wronged, I don't want to go!" ”
"As long as the emperor understands Weichen, Weichen will never give up, even if he smiles at Jiuquan, he will be grateful to the emperor." Mao Jiarong replied.
A few days later, Jin Yiwei directly murdered, embezzled, and robbed people's daughters...... and dozens of other crimes, and directly arrested the household department Shangshu Tian Xiang.
Then he directly began to raid the house, and hundreds of people from the entire Tian family were arrested and put into the Jinyi Guard's Imperial Prison.
In the end, Mao Jiarong searched for a large number of antiques, money, and criminal evidence of dealings with various officials.
Mao Jiarong's movements were so fast that no one reacted.
By the time they reacted, it was too late.
Tobe Shangshu Tian Xiang pleaded guilty, admitted all his charges, and also involved countless officials to dismount.
The next day, the emperor was furious, furious, scolded Tian Xiang, and directly put him on death row, and ordered all the officials involved in the case to be imprisoned for interrogation.
Du Mingsi was still very silent, looking like he didn't care about himself, he didn't say a word, and he didn't say a word until the court ended.
However, other officials began to condemn Mao Jiarong's abuse of lynching, planting blame, and demanding a clear investigation, anyway, to protect Tian Xiang.
It's a pity that Du Mingsi didn't speak, and the emperor also punished them for a year's imprisonment.
These officials naturally didn't care about these things, but they were very puzzled by what Du Mingsi meant, and they didn't say a word from beginning to end.
They teamed up to find Du Mingsi, but Du Mingsi excused himself with physical discomfort and didn't see anyone.
"What should I do?"
"Prime Minister, what's wrong with this, why are you so silent?"
"If we don't let them find a way, if this continues, even us will be in danger."
"Yes, yes, I'm worried that Jinyiwei will seal my house next."
Just as the Ministry of Industry Shangshu finished speaking, a group of brocade guards arrived as promised, and said directly to Ji Yuxin, the Ministry of Industry's Shangshu: "Master Ji, come with us." ”
"Why are you arresting me, I'm the second-class minister of the imperial court!"
"Prime Minister save me, I don't want to go to Jinyi Prison!"
"The emperor has been wronged, I want to see the emperor!"
Jin Yiwei commanded Mao Jiarong, just outside the Prime Minister's Mansion, and arrested the dignified minister and entered the Imperial Prison.
Mao Jiarong did this, but he didn't give Du Mingsi any face, and even deliberately slapped his face in front of him.
But Du Mingsi was still very silent, letting Mao Jiarong be arrogant, and still ignored the other officials, still lying on the Taishi chair, continuing to coil his two walnuts.
"Prime Minister, are we just going to let the emperor handle it? When the time comes, will this fire burn directly to us? Mo Yuan asked.
"Master Mo Yuan, in fact, our goal has been achieved, isn't our goal to cause the emperor to turn against all the courtiers?"
"These courtiers are all supported by those families, as long as these courtiers fall, do you think those families can still sit still?"
"Believe me, those families will soon take the initiative to send someone to contact me, and when the time comes, I will definitely burn this fire even stronger."
"When there is civil strife in the entire Great Qin Empire, when the time comes, my Daning Empire will be able to completely swallow this huge territory without much effort."
Du Mingsi expressed his opinion, and was very proud.
After all, the result of all this is his credit.
The Great Qin Empire has been lurking for decades, just for this moment.
Originally, he planned to wait for the emperor's death to support the second prince to succeed to the throne, and finally replace him himself.
It's a pity that all this was disrupted by the emperor, who didn't know who was giving the emperor ideas, which not only made his plan fall short, but also put him in a dilemma.
Since this is the case, he simply followed the original plan and let the entire Great Qin Empire fight to the death with the family.
After the Daning Empire was completely defeated, this was still his fiefdom, and the result was similar.
It's just that one is the emperor and the other is the king.
After Mo Yuan heard Du Mingsi's words, he asked, "Our reinforcements have arrived, how to arrange them?" ”
"Don't expose it, that's our hole card, so hide it." Du Mingsi said.
