Volume 1 Wisdom Fighting the Capital Chapter 57, Qingqing Zijin
Xu Ke hurriedly kowtowed to the ground and replied loudly: "Minister Xu Ke...... Thank you, Emperor Longen!"
"Get up......" Li Chongsheng said with a smile. After Xu Ke got up, the emperor said:
"This Tsing Yi Wei ...... It was created by my grandfather, and it was originally called 'Pro-Army Governor's Mansion', but later somehow changed to 'Tsing Yi Wei'...... It has been going on for 300 years. However, the current Tsing Yi Wei is really a bit unusual! Xu is too used to them on weekdays...... Shen Huan is a person who has the ability, but he is a little old-fashioned, and he is more than steady, but not sharp enough...... I will send you over, and you will work with him to rectify this Tsing Yi Wei well, and there are some black sheep, and when they are eliminated, they will ......be eliminated."
"Weichen commands!" Xu Ke said.
"I heard that in this Tsing Yi Wei, the two thousand households of the South and North Anping Divisions are trying their best to catch you in, and I will now take the initiative to send you to the door...... You...... Are you afraid?" asked Li Chongsheng.
"Don't be afraid!" Xu Ke replied.
"Oh...... Why aren't you afraid? At a young age, you have no foundation in the DPRK and China, and you don't have any martial arts...... That Tsing Yi Wei is a land of tigers and wolves...... After you go in, you're just a hundred households with five grades, so you really don't have to worry about it?......"
"Returning to Your Majesty, the minister thinks that it is useless to worry! Many things, the more you are afraid, the more he will come to the door...... It's better for me to send it to the door safely and steadily, and see how he deals with me?!......" Xu Ke said with his hands in his fists.
"Hehehe...... Hahaha!" Looking at Xu Ke's handsome and childish face, showing an awe-inspiring and inviolable expression in front of him, Li Chongsheng couldn't help but twist his beard and laugh, and ...... in a trance He seemed to remember himself when he was younger......
At that time, the young emperor was faced with a group of old ministers who had been entrusted by the first emperor, a few princely forces that had divided one side, and faced the border provocations that had repeatedly arisen in neighboring countries...... He was well-fed and clothed, diligent in politics, holding his hair and spitting and feeding, dreaming of sleeping at night, fearless of hardships and dangers, and trying his best to solve all difficulties......
At this time, Gao Liangshi ran to the emperor's side in small steps and whispered a few words...... Li Chongsheng smiled at Xu Ke and asked:
"You...... Do you know martial arts?"
"Chen just learned a trick of swordsmanship...... Xu Ke said curtly.
"Okay, very good!" I thought that when I had free time, I would also pass you a few swordsmanship...... Now listening to Gao Liangshi, you have a teacher...... Your swordsmanship is quite exquisite, very good...... In the future, you should practice well......" The emperor walked a few steps along the pillar of the hall, and after thinking for a moment, he immediately said to the chief of the inner court:
"Gao Liangshi, go, bring me that ...... 'Kunwu' sword!"
"This 'Kunwu' sword is the thing used by the Lord of Long Live Royal......" Gao Liangshi couldn't help but raise his head and say.
"Go and get it!" Li Chongsheng's face sank and he said.
Gao Liangshi hurriedly said yes, ran out with small steps, and before long, he ran back to the temple with a sword box. He slowly opened the silver-edged vermilion lacquered rosewood box cover, took out a three-foot long sword full of jewels, and presented it to the emperor with both hands.
This Kunwu sword, the jet-black scabbard made of fine iron, was inlaid with seven gems of different colors, and in the brightly lit hall, it shone and scorched...... This scabbard alone is already priceless!
Li Chongsheng held the sword in his hand, slowly pulled out the sword, and saw that on the white blade that was two feet seven inches long, there were faint bursts of blue light, which made people shudder when they saw it, and it was a good sword that blew gold and broken iron!
"This Kunwu sword, speaking of which, has also been with me for decades...... I ...... Today And he ...... it I've rewarded you!" Li Chongsheng put the long sword into the scabbard and smiled heartily...... The emperor's face was purple, and Zhou's body was even more inadvertently revealed...... At that moment, he was not so much a son of heaven who had been on the throne for 70 years, but rather an old swordsman with supreme magic skills and the vicissitudes of the rivers and lakes......
Xu Ke knelt down on his knees, stretched out his hands, respectfully took the Kunwu sword in the emperor's hand, and said:
"Weichen Xie Emperor for the sword!"
"In the future, you will hold Kunwu in your hand, and all officials below the fifth grade will be given the right to take away life and death!
As soon as Li Chongsheng said this, not only Xu Ke, but even Gao Liangshi behind him couldn't help but change his face greatly!
"What kind of holy decree is this?!He Xu Ke is also a fifth-rank official, your emperor gave him a sword, can he kill other officials below the fifth rank at will?"
"Even if your emperor confers him on a mission and gives him a sword of Shang Fang, he will have to hand over the sword and return to power after the errand is completed. Now, you have rewarded him with the right of an indefinite 'Shang Fang'...... In your emperor's life, he has never been so kind to his own son, what is the matter with this dynasty......?
"It's a shame that this is just a verbal message, and there is no explicit ...... However, your emperor won't really issue a clear edict on this will, will he? If that happens, the government and the opposition will really be shaken......
In just an instant, Gao Liangshi's heart was already full of thoughts, and this time, even he, the head of the inner court who had been with him for forty years, couldn't guess what the old emperor's intention was......
......
On December 22, the 70th year of the Great Qiankang Dynasty, at the beginning of the year, Tsing Yi Wei was at the main entrance.
At this time, Xu Ke was standing outside the gate of Tsing Yiwei, with a huge plaque hanging above his head, with the eight characters of "Pro-Army Commander Commander Commander" written on it......
The Son of Heaven issued two holy decrees in succession yesterday. The first way, praise the Tianbao Pavilion Lord Murong Yuanshan, relieve the worries of the imperial court, relieve the hardships of the victims, donate money, and make great contributions. The emperor specially inscribed a plaque of the big book "Zhenguo Pillar Stone" for it, and gave it to Tianbao Pavilion to hang above the main hall.
The second holy decree is naturally that Xu Ke experienced the household promotion department as a hundred households in Tsing Yi Weibei Anping.
This first holy decree, although it is said that the reward is a little bigger, has already given Murong Yuanshan an official title from the third grade, but after all, it is all a false position, there is no real power, and there is no fiefdom, in fact, it is just to give you a brand, so that you can be happy, in fact, it is not very useful. Everyone knows this, and it has not caused public discussion......
However, as soon as this second decree was promulgated, it immediately caused an uproar, and for a while, the government and the opposition discussed one after another......
First, who is he Xu Ke? Oh...... It was that household who experienced Xu Wu's illness, and this name is said to have been given by the emperor...... The emperor is an old man, why should he give a name to Xu Wuxi, who has just entered the court?
Second, his household experience was only a mere last official from the seventh grade, and all of a sudden, he was promoted to six levels in a row, and he was promoted to the official position of the 100 households of the Tsing Yi Wei of the fifth grade, and he was also the most confidential of the 100 households of the Bei'an Ping Division in the Tsing Yi Guard. Everyone knows that the Bei'an Ping Division is responsible for interrogating the officials of the capital and the central government, and the edict prison in charge is even more terrifying...... In the past 70 years since the current emperor ascended the throne, Daqian has never heard of such a thing, and there are even 100 households in Tsing Yi who are only 20 years old...... Exactly, why?
Third, even if he Xu Ke was promoted to six levels in a row, it would only be a hundred households with five positive grades for him. A document from the ministry, stamped with a signature, and then made an iron card, he Xu Ke can go to Tsing Yi Wei to take office. He Lao's book in the province drafted the decree, and also sent the palace attendant to submit it to the household department, and clearly issued the ...... Unless, the emperor is openly telling everyone that he, Xu Ke, is my person...... But when did this Xu Ke suddenly become a protégé of the Son of Heaven?
Fourth, the news that came out of Da Nei was that the emperor actually rewarded Xu Baihu with a famous palace sword, the Kunwu Sword, and gave him "the right to kill and seize officials below the fifth grade" on the spot! In other words, as long as this sword is in his hands Xu Ke, this right has no time limit...... If the first three points are barely acceptable to the courtiers, this last point is undoubtedly the most terrifying...... Although I only heard that the emperor did not have an edict, it ...... What I hear is often not groundless...... But if this is true, this is also--terrible! Why did the emperor do this? Isn't this a bit ...... Trifling?
In just one day, around Xu Ke's promotion and promotion, the government and the opposition were boiling, and everyone knew about it. Whether it is the big prime minister of the second grade or the small leader from the ninth grade, as well as the princes and princes from all walks of life...... I can't guess why the emperor would make such a move. Among them, there are a few old officials who have lived in the court for decades and are only below the fourth grade, and they are even resentful in their hearts, and they have scolded countless times in their hearts: "This old emperor is crazy......
......
Xu Ke received the edict, he did not dare to slack off, yesterday he had already handled the handover of the Ministry of Household Affairs, and early this morning, he rushed to Tsing Yi Wei to report.
Xu Ke is quite familiar with the yamen of Tsing Yi Wei, out of his mansion, all the way to the east, only a moment of effort, he has arrived at Yongxing Fang, where the Yamen of Tsing Yi Wei is located......
Xu Ke rushed to the main gate of the Tsing Yi Guard, and explained his intention to the guards at the door, and the two guards immediately changed their humble faces, and hurriedly bowed and saluted: "It turns out that the Lord of the Hundred Households is here, and the subordinates have seen the Lord of the Hundred Households!" One of the older guards said again: "Governor Shen has already ordered, please Xu Baihu to meet in the council hall immediately, and the Lord of the Hundred Households please come with me......"
Xu Ke followed the guard in, and along the way, through the foyer, the corridor, and the courtyard...... These scenes are all vivid. Xu Ke recalled the past and felt like a dream......
"After three months, Tsing Yiwei, I'm back again!" Xu Ke couldn't help but shout secretly in his heart.
Three months ago, I walked in in a daze, almost tortured, and lost my life!
Three months later, I am still me, and I am no longer me, and what you imposed on me for no reason in the past, I will ask you for it back today!
Heaven is the way of the heavens, the emperor of the earth, between heaven and earth, there is justice! This Tsing Yi Wei is by no means a place where you can run rampant!
In the past, you bent the law for personal gain and lawlessness, and in the future, I Xu Ke want to let you know that justice is in the hearts of the people, and if you do evil again, there will be evil retribution!
Aren't you arresting me everywhere, aren't there a thousand methods and tortures prepared for me?...... Today, I take the initiative to come to the door, and see what tricks you and other clowns can perform! No matter how you jump up and down, I Xu Ke will definitely accompany you to the end!
