"At present, according to the case reported by the Jinyiwei to the Ministry of Justice, the number of people involved in the case has reached more than 56,800, of which more than 2,300 beheaded, and the rest are all sent to Liaodong..."
"The number of people involved in this case is unseen. Depending on your Majesty's intention, this major case is far from over."
In the cabinet, Lai Zongdao held a summary of the case, and his voice was also helpless.
Liu Qiyuan was also silent. In this case, the court and officials in the world were investigated, but they had nothing to do with the court and officials in the world.
When Wu Xun investigated civil servants, it was still Yasukuni Duke who coordinated with the Cabinet, the Ministry of Justice, and the Inspectorate. Not to mention interfering in changing the case, he couldn't even say anything. The only thing he could do was to look through these pages of case notices.
The newly promoted cabinet ministers Yang Sichang and Chen Qiyu, at this moment, shut up their mouths and said nothing.
They were originally local officials, but they entered the court because of this addition. One was the Minister of Works and the other was the Minister of War. They thought that this addition of cabinet ministers would have nothing to do with those of them who had no foundation in the court, but they were confused and became the final winner.
Obviously, the court push is just a ceremony. In the end, it is their general whom His Majesty personally ordered. Otherwise, according to the normal court push rules, how can they be their turn!
As a local official, he should do his job honestly. Under the rule of today, no one has the time to cause trouble for them.
But after entering this court that has never been safe, he still made a confused step to the sky and became a cabinet minister, and undoubtedly became the target of public criticism. Low-key is obviously the best choice.
"No, I must advise Your Majesty, and you can't be so unwilling to be involved!"
In the silence, Lai Zongdao suddenly stood up and served as the chief minister of the Daheng Dynasty. Under the little force of the emperor, his original two sides were matched and pleased him on both sides seemed to slowly disappear, and he truly entered the state of the chief minister of the cabinet.
Liu Qiyuan shook his head, stood up, and pulled the future Zongdao and sat down again.
"Your Majesty will not stop."
"This tax corruption is just a name. You are not sure what Your Majesty really wants."
"If you haven't reached the level that Your Majesty wants, even if you say it out loud, Your Majesty won't listen to you."
"With this time, we might as well take this opportunity to clean up the mess. The more we do, the sooner the case can be ended..."
After saying that, Liu Qiyuan had no chance to come to Zongdao with a gloomy face. He turned to look at Yang Sichang and Chen Qiyu, the two new ministers, and bowed: "Old Yang Ge Lao, Old Chen Ge Lao, the affairs of the Ministry of War have been accumulated for a long time. You still have to work hard, keep an eye on it and figure it out as soon as possible."
"The matters that are in charge are unavoidable."
Yang Sichang and Chen Qiyu immediately bowed their hands and spoke.
"Okay, it's all broken up. There are so many things happening in my Ministry of Revenue!"
After saying that, Liu Qiyuan glanced at Lai Zongdao, who was still worried, and couldn't help but shake his head. In the past, it was this prime minister who came to persuade him. Now, it was his turn to persuade him...
Things in the world are impermanent, and life is full of things!
He didn't say anything more, waved his hand and went out of Wenyuan Pavilion. Seeing this, Yang Sichang and Chen Qiyu bowed to Lai Zongdao, and then left outside the hall.
"Why!"
After all the three of them left, Lai Zongdao couldn't help but sigh heavily!
No one dares to advise, no one can advise, no one can advise!
In the long run, people's hearts are suppressed and frightened, and they are in panic all day long. What should I do?
As my thoughts flowed, when I saw the memorial from the Ministry of Rites on the table, Lai Zongdao looked even more sad!
At this time, please persuade the position of crown prince?
How did this kind of naughty man survive in this court?
I really think that the court is not chaotic enough! I have to add more fire!
"Sir, Your Majesty let you go!"
At some point, a eunuch appeared in the cabinet and heard a sound.
"good."
Lai Zongdao calmed down, quickly got up, and followed the eunuch out of the cabinet.
After passing through several halls, he suddenly became surprised and suspicious: "This is not the way to the Qing Palace, is it?"
"Your Majesty said that you are asking the Prime Minister to wait at the palace gate."
The eunuch replied quickly.
"The palace gate?"
Lai Zongdao was a little confused, but he didn't think much about it. No one in this palace dared to falsely pass the decree, let alone falsely pass the decree to him, the chief minister of the cabinet.
When the general arrived at the palace gate, he vaguely saw several figures at the entrance of the palace gate, and came to the sect to find him a little confused.
"White Dragon Fish Suit?"
I was a little surprised and suspicious. When I walked quickly to the sect, the scenery I saw became clearer and clearer.
I saw that today, Duke Jingguo, Liu Qiyuan, and the old guy, the chief supervisor of the inner court, Wang Wu, were all dressed in ordinary clothes, and looked like the steward of an ordinary landlord's housekeeper.
"Me, please see your Majesty!"
"Okay, the butler is here, go and change the clothes for the butler."
The emperor laughed, and Wang Wu, who was beside him, immediately walked forward with a set of Confucian shirt.
Seeing this, Lai Zongdao didn't understand what was going on. He bowed to the emperor and, under the guidance of Wang Wu, headed towards the city tower next to him.
"You... Where are you going?"
Xu Fengren couldn't help asking.
Liu Qiyuan also looked at the emperor curiously.
"First go to Peking University Square, then leave the capital, and take a walk in Shuntian Prefecture."
As soon as these words were spoken, Xu Feng was fine, but Liu Qiyuan's expression changed slightly.
Peking University Fang is the outer city of the capital, and it is the most down-and-out place in the capital. Most of the poor people live in it, and most of the foreign merchants live in Peking University Fang, which is a place where fish and dragons are mixed.
Of course, if it is just these, it would be fine. The emperor is just a sympathetic person and compassionate with the people.
However, although this emperor was arbitrary and murdered people, he really had no choice but to say to the people at the bottom.
Reform is for the people. Even if the finances are so tight now, the emperor is very sympathetic to the people. Work-for-relief in various disaster areas has long become the norm, and he is even more sympathetic to the people in the capital.
If before winter begins, the inner court will be ordered to allocate and suppress coal, firewood, grain and other materials that are necessary for the people to spend the winter. For example, if you organize poor people to do some repairs to the streets, you will also give some relief grains that can survive.
As far as he knew, these foods were squeezed out by the emperor from the military pay.
But... Since ancient times, there has been no problem with relief!
The emperor stayed in the palace, and even the Jinyiwei could not report in detail. After all, the Jinyiwei could not be without tricks.
But once the emperor comes to the scene in person, what tricks can you hide from the emperor!
No matter how small the matter is, once it falls into the eyes of the emperor, it will be a huge matter!
Looking at the emperor's interest, Liu Qiyuan hesitated for a while, and finally swallowed the words to his mouth.
Nowadays, it is not the previous Ming Dynasty. The laws and regulations of ancestors, rituals and rules, can bind the previous Ming Dynasty, and it has no meaning to this emperor.
Strictly speaking, the words of this emperor are the laws of the ancestors and the rules of etiquette.
"Please be blessed..."
