Li Qing's eyes froze, he knew that the little emperor wanted to kill, but he didn't expect it to be torture and killing.

After thinking about it, I felt that maybe it was not the little emperor's intention, after all, Dongchang and Jinyiwei have always been known for their ruthlessness, and this is just to please the emperor.

Figuring out the intentions of the ministers is not only the minister, but the people in the palace are even better, even the palace maids are like this for the concubines.

Even the subordinates of wealthy families will curry favor with the lord and wife of the main family and fight each other secretly.

It's just a way to survive.

Li Qing glanced at the woman and saw that she was brightly dressed, just the gold-inlaid jade hairpin on her head, no less than twenty taels of silver, obviously, this is not the standard of living that a family from a Yanguan family should have.

There will be gains and losses, Li Qing sighed.

He didn't fall into the ground, but he didn't have sympathy, just a symbolic word of comfort, and rode away on a donkey.

Some things will not necessarily be liquidated, but if they are liquidated, they will not be blamed.

…

When he got home, Li Qing turned over and got off the donkey, took out the forage and fed the donkey, chattering at the same time.

"Brother Donkey, why do you think this person is so greedy?" Li Qing asked.

Donkey: "......"

"Brother Donkey, why do you say that Da Ming is so corrupt officials?" The corners of Li Qing's mouth were bitter, "Why is this?" ”

The donkey was still speechless, it was a donkey, if it wasn't for two mouthfuls to eat, it would have to run away from home.

Unconsciously, Li Qing finished feeding the forage in his hand and patted the donkey's head, "Go and rest." ”

The donkey was relieved, and happily hid in the wooden shed, not daring to lift his head.

Li Qing sighed: "It's still a comfortable animal, and there are no worries." ”

"Bell, bell, bell, ......!" There was a knock on the door, followed by Yu Qian's voice, "Is Mr. at home?" ”

"Yes." Li Qing replied in a loud voice, "The door is hidden, you just come in directly." ”

"Squeak~" Yu Qian pushed the door in, and reflexively tied the door, then stepped forward quickly, and said anxiously: "Sir, this time the matter is big!" ”

Li Qing smiled lightly, "The soldiers are coming, the water is coming, there is nothing to be anxious about." ”

"This time it's different." Yu Qian said solemnly, "Sir, do you know what treatment Yanguan has suffered?" ”

Li Qing nodded: "I saw one on the way back, and he was split by Jinyiwei." ”

"It's not one," Yu Qian said in a deep voice, "It's nine, nine lives, and they are all torture and killing, not only that, but the other officials are also covered in bruises, none of them can leave, all of them are carried out of Zhaojiao." ”

He couldn't hide his anger on his face: "With my understanding of the emperor, it is possible to kill people, but I will never do this cruel method, this is definitely what Wang Zhen instructed Jinyiwei to do." “

"Does it make a difference?" Li Qing shook his head, "Whether it's Wang Zhen or the emperor, it doesn't matter, the facts have been established, what's the use of saying this?" ”

"It's a big deal!" Yu Qian frowned and said, "This thing is so bad that it can be said that it is unprecedented, it is Taizu...... I haven't treated the official like this. ”

You didn't see it when he peeled the grass...... Li Qing rolled his eyes, "Even if they don't kill the official, they will still make trouble, and the result will not be much better;

If you don't sew the mouth of the official, you can't reflect the emperor's determination, and the national policy will only be at a stalemate, and it will always be in peace with the mud;

This matter can only be fought head-on, and there is no half-trick. ”

"Did you ever think about how they would fight back?" Yu Qian said: "I remember that Mr. once said that in the past year, in the Taizong Dynasty, the weaving bureau was on fire, the canal was in turmoil, Tang Sai'er revolted, and the three major halls were almost burned...... It's all written by them, and now... Who knows they won't do it again? ”

"This was expected." Li Qing nodded with a smile and asked, "Together with the war, can you, the squire of the military department, stabilize the logistics supply?" ”

Yu Qian was stunned for a moment and said in surprise: "Mr. expected this situation from the beginning? ”

"This is bound to happen, and it is natural to lay out in advance." Li Qing said, "From the moment I entered the court, I was preparing for today;

The current civilian-bureaucratic clique is no longer the civilian-bureaucratic clique of two years ago;

The imperial court expelled so many officials and abolished the ministers of the town, and now they are not much different from tigers with teeth extracted. Li Qing smiled, "It's true that the situation is serious, but it's not as bad as you think." ”

Yu Qian's heart eased, and when he thought about it carefully, it was really like this, and he couldn't help but admire: "Mr. is really far-sighted. ”

"Huh...... Is that. "Li Qing is not modest at all.

Yu Qian breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "Looking at this situation, Mr. Xu has already discussed with the emperor?" ”

"Hmm." Li Qing smiled, "However, your burden is very heavy, and military logistics for fighting a war is the top priority, so you can't hold back." ”

"Yu Qian should do his best." Yu Qian said in a deep voice.

Li Qing thought for a while and asked, "Wang Ji, how is this person?" ”

"I don't have a lot of contact, I don't know much about it." Yu Qian pondered and said, "In fact, above the officialdom, it is not black and white;

Although many people have problems with their style, and even ...... The behavior is bad, but the vast majority of people, in the vast majority of cases, officials are still willing to do things for the imperial court, and they do not want the Ming Dynasty to weaken. ”

Yu Qian said seriously: "It's not that I'm a civil official, I'm speaking for a civil official, the real situation is indeed like this;

It's just that most of them think about themselves first, and then think about the court. ”

Li Qing nodded: "This is reasonable, after all, they eat the food of the Ming Dynasty, especially those high-ranking officials, their children and grandchildren can enjoy the grace and shade, and directly enter the national school, one step faster;

can barely be called indirect hereditary, and they naturally won't do things that harm the public and private interests, but they don't do anything that harms the public and private interests. ”

Yu Qian sighed: "That's true. ”

"However, I still think it is necessary for Wang Ji to fight for it." Yu Qian suggested, "At least it's worth trying, civil officials can't be offended, at least they have to leave a little, even a little." ”

Li Qing pondered for a while and nodded in agreement.

Yu Qian didn't dare to stay for a long time, got up and said: "It is estimated that the news of the abuse and killing of Yanguan has spread, and it will not be tomorrow, it will cause a sensation in the government and the opposition today;

Six Ministries and Nine Secretaries, the Metropolitan Procuratorate, the Cabinet... They're going to make a fuss, they're going to make a big fuss, I'm going to have to go see it. ”

After a pause, "Mr. do you want to come along?" ”

Li Qing thought for a while and said with a smile: "Cheng, such a big bustle, not to be missed." ”

Yu Qian: "......"

Seeing that the donkey Li Qing went to ride the donkey again, Yu Qian had no choice but to say, "Then I'll go first." ”

The donkey was too slow, where did Yu Qian wait, hurriedly arched his hand, and left in a hurry.

When he got home, he rode his horse and hurried to the palace.

Li Qing is not in a hurry, it is useless to be anxious, and no one listens to persuasion.

It is inevitable that things will go wrong, and that cannot be changed.

Anyway, the worst result is to deal with it, so what's the urgency?

Li Qing walked to the donkey shed and shouted, "Brother donkey, let's go, let's watch the excitement." ”

It's not easy to eat two mouthfuls of your hay...... The donkey walked out of the wooden shed and came to Li Qing.

Li Qing turned over on the donkey, "Drive~"

…

Qianqing Palace.

After Zhu Qizhen learned the details, his brows furrowed deeply, "Wang Zhen, did you instruct Jinyiwei to do this?" ”

"Slave maid ......" Wang Zhen was a little weak, he was angry at the time, now thinking about it, he couldn't help but regret a little, and quickly knelt down, "Your Majesty, it was the slave and maid who ordered it, but... The slaves and maids really couldn't listen to them scolding the emperor. ”

This matter can't be hidden, and it can't be hidden, Wang Zhen can only show loyalty and pretend to be pitiful.

He snorted and cried, and cried: "Your Majesty, you don't know how ugly they scold you, and the slave listens to them scolding you. ”

Wang Zhenna called a sincere feeling, tears flowed, and the snot bubbles swelled and contracted, "Your Majesty, you say...... What bad thoughts can a slave have?

The slave is really wholeheartedly for the emperor! ”

He was crying fiercely here, and a small yellow door hurriedly came in and exclaimed, "Your Majesty, it's not a good thing, Your Majesty." ”

Zhu Qizhen asked in a deep voice: "What happened?" ”

"Six Ministries, the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and the Cabinet...... A large group of Ziwenchen knelt at the gate of the palace, asking the emperor to give them an explanation. Xiao Huangmen swallowed his saliva and said bitterly, "There are hundreds of people, and it looks like it's seeping." ”

Wang Zhen's heart sank, and his face turned white: Damn, this time it's a big fuss.

Li Qing rode a donkey and entered the imperial city leisurely, and when he saw a large number of people at the gate of the palace, he couldn't help but say:

"Yo, are you all on your knees?"
