Chapter 269: It's so hard to be both civil and military

Since Anqing first tasted the forbidden fruit, he fell in love with this taste, and pestered Li Wei every day to make him do evil.

On the other hand, in order not to snub Xiaoqing, Li Wei is also diligent and studious, and every time he commits a crime, he has to find time to take time to cram for cultural classes.

He is now in his early thirties, and his body is really unbearable to go on like this, and it is too difficult to call both civil and military shuangquan!

In the yamen of the Ministry of Industry, Li Wei was holding a health tea made of wolfberry in his hand, his face was tired and he was napping, and the messenger led a eunuch in.

Seeing Li Wei's appearance, the messenger suddenly relaxed his steps, hesitated for a moment before leaning forward and calling softly: "My lord, my lord? ”

Li Wei's body shook, and when he opened his eyes and saw the errand officer, he forcibly cheered up and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

"My lord, someone has come to the palace, and His Majesty has summoned you to the palace to see you." The officer whispered.

Li Wei looked up at the little eunuch behind him, the little eunuch hurriedly bowed, now Li Wei's voice is booming, coupled with the holy family Zhenglong, he naturally dare not be disrespectful.

Li Wei took a long breath and stretched before saying, "Okay, then let's go." ”

"Master Pony, please!"

The little eunuch stretched out his hand to lead the way, and Li Wei followed him out of the yamen and towards the palace.

Zhu Yuanzhang met him in Wuying Palace, and after saluting, Li Wei shrugged his head and stood aside, waiting for Zhu Yuanzhang's orders.

"You also know about Zhao Jun, right?" Zhu Yuanzhang said softly.

"Yes." Li Wei nodded.

"Well, then what do you think this Zhao Jun should do?"

"Of course, it was dealt with in accordance with the law!" Li Wei said as a matter of course.

Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes condensed slightly: "Really? Don't dig any deeper and dispose of Zhang Zongyi and Lan Yu? ”

Li Wei's expression suddenly froze when he heard this, and he hesitated in his heart.

If he could, of course he wanted to kill these two guys directly, but now that Zhu Yuanzhang asked him like this, I am afraid that he just didn't want to deal with them.

After a deep sigh, Li Wei secretly sighed, if you don't deal with it, don't deal with it, although Lan Yu and Zhang Zongyi strongly recommend Zhao Jun, at most they can only be regarded as an unknown person, and they are jointly and severally responsible, and it is impossible to directly punish the crime with their status.

"The state has national laws, and the family has family rules, and Your Majesty will deal with it according to law." Li Wei said softly.

Zhu Yuanzhang smiled and asked again, "What about Sun Jian?" ”

Li Wei frowned slightly, there was no need to ask him about these things, could it be that this old man was testing him?

Thinking of this, Li Wei couldn't help but pout, and said simply: "Deal with it according to law." ”

"He's your man, won't you help him intercede?"

"Why did Your Majesty say this? The ministers of the Ming Dynasty are all His Majesty's talents, and don't say that he is a subordinate, even if his son violates the law, he should be dealt with according to law! ”

Li Wei glanced at him and said.

Zhu Yuanzhang was slightly stunned, keenly aware that this kid seemed to mean something, his face suddenly sank, and he said coldly: "Hmph, that's because you don't have a son yet!" ”

“……”

Li Wei was choked and breathless, don't say it if you can't speak, just your son, stallion!

"Okay, you don't have to worry about their affairs, in a few days we will issue an order to promote you to the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, you will handle the affairs of the Ministry of Industry for us, the city, roads and bridges must be built as soon as possible, you go back and take a good look, don't delay!"

Zhu Yuanzhang commanded softly.

Li Wei rolled his eyes secretly, why don't you ask so much without me worrying?

"Yes, I obey." Li Wei should arrive listlessly.

Zhu Yuanzhang bowed his head, and then noticed his appearance, and couldn't help frowning slightly: "What's wrong with you?" ”

"Oh, it's okay, it's just that I've been busy with official business lately, and I'm a little tired."

Li Wei made an excuse to cover it up, but he couldn't let his father-in-law know that he was overpracticing with his daughter.

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at him suspiciously: "Let's let the imperial doctor show you when we go back!" ”

"No, no, I have a little problem, just rest and rest." Li Wei waved his hand again and again in panic.

"Really?"

"No!" Li Wei said resolutely.

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at him twice more and made sure that he was really fine, so he didn't ask again.

Bidding farewell to Zhu Yuanzhang, Li Wei returned to the Yamen of the Ministry of Industry and began to take over the affairs left by Zhao Jun and Xue Xiang.

Since Zhao Jun was arrested, those officials under him have also been arrested and interrogated one after another, and now the Ministry of Industry has not suffered much loss except for these people under Li Wei's own jurisdiction, and the officials to whom Zhao Jun belongs are only two or three big cats and kittens.

At this time, these people were also recruited by Li Wei into his house and asked them to report on the affairs they were responsible for.

Although the holy decree has not yet come down, these people do not dare to shirk under his "obscenity", and tremblingly explain all the things they are responsible for.

After Li Wei asked people to sort it out, they handed it over to his public case.

I didn't know if I didn't ask before, but now that I have taken over the whole thing, I know how much work the Ministry of Industry has!

There are more than 100 state capital cities under the jurisdiction of the Ming Dynasty, and nearly 1,000 county seats, due to years of war, nearly one-third of these cities need to be repaired, and one-tenth needs to be rebuilt.

That is to say, he now has to build dozens of large cities at the state capital level and rebuild more than a dozen, not counting the small county seats!

There are also official roads in various places to be built, water conservancy, bridges, and so on.

In addition to these, it is also necessary to build ships for shipping and commerce, although Zhu Yuanzhang does not allow the private to go to sea to do business, but the official sea trade has not been broken, but the number of types of goods has been limited.

Li Wei browsed these affairs roughly, and suddenly his head was big.

Originally, he didn't completely take over the affairs of his own side, like Jiang Shouqing, he didn't ask much about the affairs of the Qing Officials Division, but now that he has added so many projects, he can't be busy even if he is killed!

Li Wei scratched his head, pondered for a moment, and shouted loudly: "Someone! ”

The messenger outside the door heard the sound and hurried in.

"What do you command, sir?"

"Go next door and call Wang Jie to me." Li Wei commanded.

"Okay, let's go, little one."

After the messenger finished speaking, he turned around and hurriedly left the yamen of the Ministry of Works, and after a while, he walked in with Wang Jie.

"My lord, are you looking for me?"

Wang Jie first saluted respectfully, and then asked.

Li Wei nodded lightly: "Well, last time you brought those Hanlin classics to review or something, are they still idle now?" ”

Hearing this, Wang Jie nodded a little embarrassed.

Although Li Wei gave an idea last time for them to get some Hongwu ceremony, they reported these reports to His Majesty, and the reply they got was just two words: no money!

Repairing books is also very expensive and food-consuming, in addition to the staff's income, but also to collect some rare books, which is very valuable, this thing can't be done without money.

So these people can only continue to do the same thing, that is, nothing.

Li Wei said with a happy face: "That's great, you call them all over, the Ministry of Engineering is short of people now, let them hurry up and apply!" ”

"Uh, you want them to fill in the gaps?" Wang Jie didn't quite understand the word application.

"Yes, yes! It's just filling the gap! ”

"Okay, then I'll let them know later!"

Wang Jie was also pleasantly surprised, these people were his former colleagues, and he found Li Wei through his relationship, Li Wei gave an idea of repairing the Hongwu Ceremony but failed to succeed, and now that he has this opportunity, it is naturally a great thing.

When Li Wei was busy forming a new team here, a group of Wenchen such as Zhang Zongyi and Zhao Ben were scattered.

Zhang Zongyi is the secretary of the Criminal Department, and Zhu Yuanzhang naturally will not hand over Zhao Jun's case to the Criminal Department for trial, but directly hand it over to the Criminal Department of the Dali Division, which will be tried by the newly appointed criminal judge.

In the course of the interrogation, Zhao Jun knew that he would definitely die, and he did not hide the crimes he committed, and all of them were truthfully confessed.

But in the process, he bit Sun Jian desperately, and emphasized the crimes he committed, and the trial and punishment department naturally couldn't turn a blind eye, and soon arrested Sun Jian.

After Sun Jian was imprisoned, everyone's eyes were on Li Wei to see if he would save his dog's leg.

If Sun Jian is rescued, it means that Li Wei is still affectionate and righteous, and it is worth taking refuge; If Li Wei turns a blind eye, it will be unkind, and those who want to fall to him must be cautious.

A few days later, the Criminal Trial Division reported the results of the interrogation to Zhu Yuanzhang, who quickly gave an approval.

Zhao Jun was undoubtedly beheaded, confiscated his family property, and his family members had no officials.

In addition to him, more than a dozen other officials who were implicated also beheaded, although Zhang Zongyi did not die, he was also deposed, without him, only Zhao Ben was left as a pillar among the Wenchen who opposed Li Wei.

And Zhao Ben, the pillar of the pillar, obviously can't stand it, since Zhao Jun was arrested, he has lived in a simple and low-key way, and Tang Duo has been rejected by him several times.

In addition to these Wenchen, although Lan Yu and other generals were not imprisoned and questioned, they were also reprimanded and transferred out of the town.

As for Sun Jian, the dog leg of the Li Party that everyone is concerned about, after thinking about it, Zhu Yuanzhang still exempted him from the death penalty and demoted him to soap li.

When the ministers of the court saw this result, they couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, although there was one more powerful minister in the court, but fortunately, this person was not so ruthless.

Sun Jian escaped death, and after seeing the day again, he was so excited that he immediately went to see Li Wei.

"Thank you for saving your life, the villain will definitely repay your great kindness and virtue, and give you a cow and a horse, and the sword mountain and the sea of fire will also be unremitting!"

Sun Jian, who had already changed into his errand clothes, kowtowed to Li Wei again and again.

Li Wei's expression was a little confused, he knew that he had not interceded with this Sun Jian, and even told Zhu Yuanzhang that he would deal with him according to the law, but Sun Jian didn't know that he had always attributed his escape to his life as a good leader.

Li Wei hesitated for a moment, knowing that he couldn't explain it, so he could only comforted him softly: "It's good to come out, you have to change your mind and be a new person in the future, and you must not have any more illegal acts!" ”

"Yes, yes! The villain must remember the teachings of the adults! Sun Jian respectfully should be.

Li Wei nodded: "That's good, let's go out and do things." ”

"Yes, the villain obeys!"

Sun Jian got up, turned around and walked out of the lobby, and went outside to guard the door with a stick. (End of chapter)
