Chapter 18 Discussing Crimes

Guo Xiu, currently the Right Chief of the Censorate of the Censorate, is the deputy chief of the Censorate of the Six Sections and Five-Division Supervision Censor. Not only has the power of independent impeachment (independent prosecutor?), but also can "report and report", and has always been highly valued by Kangxi!

However, before that, no one expected Guo Xiu to be promoted to his current position!

He was once a Taoist, but was later dismissed for the corruption case. However, because the amount of corruption was not very large, Kangxi asked him to bask in the sun outside the Meridian Gate for a long time, and then he was demoted to a place to become a fifth-rank Tongzhi!

The reason why he was able to reach his current position in a short time is because he fought Emperor Kangxi several years ago!

That was the first time Kangxi went to Fengtian to meet the kings of Manchuria and Mongolia! He passed by Sanhe County and happened to meet the new county magistrate. The new Sanhe County magistrate had hundreds of people with him. Moreover, his train was full of cars and horses, and he was extremely imposing. Kangxi, who took advantage of the road to play in condom, was stunned and said words like "County Magistrate, Bailihou"! Of course, there was another person who was also angry, that was Guo Xiu, a local magistrate who rode a donkey out to patrol the people's sentiment!

Guo Xiu has a strong temper! Not only to others, but also to himself! After the corruption case, he regretted and cut his fingers to make a vow. Therefore, when he saw the new Sanhe County Magistrate's show, he immediately got angry and rode a donkey to go straight to the county government office, and took off the seal of the new county government office that he had just arrived! Not long after he finished these things and left Sanhe County Magistrate, Kangxi's confidant Li Dequan, also arrived in Sanhe County!

Kangxi was very upset when he saw the new Sanhe County Magistrate's attitude. He sent Li De to summon the county magistrate to the camp to ask questions and have a good crow! However, there was something wrong in the middle!

Who is Li Dequan? Eunuch!

Although he was afraid of the eunuchs in the Ming Dynasty, and the Qing Dynasty was very strict with eunuchs since its founding, the eunuchs were still eunuchs after all. Even if Li Dequan had been with Kangxi for a long time, he had some eyesight. However, he had been held by Kangxi for many years, and he had a rare opportunity to come out for some breath. Moreover, he was ordered by the emperor and could be considered half an "indulgent envoy". How could he not live a good life?

So, he led a few eunuchs and whip on horseback and galloped all the way. After arriving at Sanhe County, he still rushed around and finally... he bumped into someone!

The person who was hit fell to the ground and was unconscious!

So, their group was stopped by the crowd! However, Li Dequan didn't know how to restrain himself. Although he knew it was his fault and threw a few pieces of silver, he refused to give in and kept shouting, saying that he would be so kind to the person who threw the money away. If he didn't pay attention, he deserved it, and even if he died, he would die in vain. As a result, the crowd was disturbed by his words, and the most popular among them was Guo Xiu passing by! He didn't like bullying the weak, but when he stepped forward to reason, Li Dequan was impatiently rewarded with two whips...

Next, of course, Guo Xiu will show his power!

Didn’t Li Dequan want to find the Sanhe County Magistrate? Guo Xiu was whipped and did not reveal his identity. Instead, he volunteered to take them to the county government, but once he got there, the situation was different!

Water and fire sticks, sticks, big shackles...

The more Li Dequan said he was an imperial prisoner, the more ruthless Guo Xiu was going to punish him!... Because if Li Dequan said it was true, in front of so many people, his behavior of hitting people was to smear Kangxi on the face. Guo Xiu claimed to be loyal to the emperor and patriotism, and of course he could not let this happen. Therefore, he insisted that Li Dequan change his words, but what Li Dequan said was true...

Finally, Li Dequan and his gang went back to see Kangxi with wounds and blood all over their bodies!

Out of anger, Li Dequan made some modifications to the description of the collision incident, so the whole thing seemed to Kangxi, and Guo Xiu was bold and beat the imperial envoy regardless of the emperor's order! Therefore, Kangxi was also a little angry and ordered Guo Xiujin to meet!

After the two met, one was the emperor and he was a little angry, while the other was a strong man! Finally, the fight started!

Kangxi asked Guo Xiu why he didn't look at his master, he beat the emperor's servants, and did not follow the king's law. After hearing this, Guo Xiu felt very frustrated, and he became more and more angry. He said that Kangxi was not strict in control of his subordinates and indulged the palace slaves to commit crimes! Then, the two of them became more and more irritable. Kangxi finally couldn't stand the anger and asked the guard to whip Guo Xiu. Guo Xiu became even more desperate. He immediately scolded Kangxi as the leader of Jie and Zhou, indulged in the dispute between Manchu and Han, and protected Manchu people, rejected Han officials, and accepted donations to give officials to sell official positions, etc.

You know, Kangxi was very proud! He ascended the throne at the age of eight, took power at the age of fourteen, and eliminated Oboi at the age of sixteen. He then successively defeated the Three Feudals, recovered Taiwan, started the grain transportation, and rectified the river affairs... Which of these achievements is not something that talented people cannot do? But Guo Xiu, the second-hand man, dared to call him a "crazy monarch" in front of him, and he was a violent person like Jie and Zhou. How could he not be angry?

So, after Guo Xiu scolded him, Kangxi finally ordered the criminal Guo Xiu to behead him and executed!

Things should have ended here! However, at this moment, someone's words pulled Guo Xiu back from the Gate of Hell. This person was Gao Shiqi!

"I don't show my sincerity in the day!" At that time, Guo Xiu was just escorted out of the house. Gao Shiqi said this. Kangxi asked him what he meant. Gao Shiqi was alive in vain: "I think it's too cheap for the emperor to deal with this way. Guo Xiu. In a moment, a corrupt official who had committed a serious crime of corruption became a loyal minister who left his name in history. Alas, it's cheap!"

After hearing this, Kangxi thought about it and found that this is true. If he killed Guo Xiu at this time, it would not only fulfill the reputation of this thorny head, but also give himself a reputation of "not tolerating others and not accepting advice". This is absolutely necessary, so... a probation!

Not long after, after Kangxi's anger subsided, he thought carefully and heard a saying that "there is a dispute between a family and a family, he would not defeat his family." He finally decided to use Guo Xiu, a gangster! So Guo Xiu jumped from a death row prisoner to become the envoy of Jiangnan Road. From then on, he got along with Kangxi's monarch and ministers, and was promoted one after another. Finally, he became the second-in-commander of the Censorate, who was responsible for supervising all officials!

However, no one expected that the envoy Guo Da was in this position and took Mingzhu, the powerful minister of the current dynasty! Moreover, not only Mingzhu, in his memorial, he also impeached his savior, the current Minister of the Study, the Minister of the Cabinet, the Minister of Rites, the Minister of the Zhanshi Mansion, the Bachelor of the Hanlin Academy, and the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue Yu Guozhu, the Minister of the Ministry of Justice Xu Qianxue, the Grand Secretary of the Ministry of Justice, Degele, and the former Minister of the Ministry of Revenue Fo

Lun, Governor of the River Affairs Bureau, Governor of Huguang, Governor of Yunnan and Guizhou Cai Yurong, etc. Some people say that Guo Tiedan defeated nearly 30% of the senior officials of the Qing Dynasty with the third rank or above! And that's not counting. After Guo Xiu, the impeachment stamps of Yu Chenglong and other famous officials of the Qing Dynasty were immediately followed. With their actions, those involved also fought back. So, for a moment, almost all the civil and military officials of the Qing Dynasty carried one or two impeachment stamps on their backs!

The court was in chaos!

***

Three days after the birthday party!

Forbidden City!

In the study room, Kangxi was furious, and the object was Mingzhu!

However, this time, Mingzhu, an important official of Kangxi who was powerful in the court and the country, was known as the "prime minister" and lived in the cabinet for more than 20 years. Mingzhu, who was known as "the government of the world", lost the spirit of the past! (In fact, according to history, Mingzhu finished playing the game in more than 20 years of Kangxi. In order to arrange the story, this book has changed many other places. Don't believe it, and hereby declare it! I won't explain it again in the future!)

Three days ago, Guo Xiu gave him that "unique" birthday gift, which scared thousands of He Guests to the point of being frightened. After almost escaping together, he and only two people left, Gao Shiqi and Xiong Cilu came to see Kangxi, wanting to ask for an explanation first to be at the bottom! However, Kangxi only agreed to summon Xiong Cilu and Gao Shiqi, and only sent him to him: "Mingzhu is on her birthday, and she is given three days off, so she doesn't have to be on duty." Then he sent him back!

At that time, he knew that his career was over...

After spending more than 20 years in the officialdom, it was finally time for him to finish class!

Think about my experience of Kangxi, and being appointed as the commander of Yun, two doctors, three general managers of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, four bachelors of Hongwen Academy, five plus one level, six plus one level, seven plus one left censors of the Ministry of Justice, eight plus one left censors of the Censors of the Censors of the Censors of the Censors of the Censors of the Censors of the Censors of the Censors of the Censors of the Censors of the Censors of the Censors of the Censors of the Censors of the Censors of the Censors of the Censors of the Censors of the Censors of the Censors of the Censors of the Censors of the Censors of the Censors of the Censors of the Censors of the Censors of the Censors of the Censors of the Censors of the Censors of the Censors of the Censors of the Censors of the Censors of the Censors of the Censors of the Censors of the Censors of the Censors of the Censors of the Censors of the Censors of the Censors of the Censors of the Censors of the Censors of the Censors of the Censors of the Censors of the Censors of the Censors of the Censors of the Censors of the Censors of the Censors of the Censors of the Censors of the Censors of the Censors of the Censors of the Censors of the Censors of the Censors of the Censors of the Censors of the Censors of the Censors of the Censors of the Censors of the Censors of the Censors of the

The Grand Secretary of the Palace and the Minister of Rites, the Minister of Rites, the Minister of Rites, the Minister of Rites, the Minister of War, the Minister of the Inspector of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the Bachelor of the Hongwen Academy, the Minister of the Army, the Bachelor of the Hongwen Academy, the Minister of the Second Eyes, and the Grand Secretary of the People's Republic of China, the Minister of the People's Republic of China, the Minister of the People's Republic of China, the Minister of the People's Republic of China, the Minister of the People's Republic of China, the Minister of the People's Republic of China, the Minister of the People's Republic of China, the Minister of the People's Republic of China, the Minister of the People's Republic of China, the Minister of the People's Republic of China, the Minister of the People's Republic of China, the Minister of the People's Republic of China, the Minister of the People's Republic of China, the Minister of the People's Republic of China, the Minister of the People's Republic of China, the Minister of the People's Republic of China, the Minister of the People's Republic of China, was given a first-class feather... Over the past twenty years, it has been so glorious! However, he was finally defeated by a small Guo Xiu! It seems that Kangxi has had enough of himself and feels that he should leave the court!

Thinking about it, he was too fussy. Kangxi was able to tolerate himself for so many years, which was considered a very nostalgic love!

Mingzhu is a wise man. From the beginning, she quickly changed her role automatically. In the not-so-long period of three days, she analyzed herself as a treacherous minister and made some arrangements. The huge wealth was even more dispersed, which almost made those officials who said he was corrupt. It can be said that even if he dies now, his family will not be able to do anything!... He did not seek merit, but showed no mistakes. He was also a little prepared for the result of this day!

"You said... how do I treat you? Are the things you have done over the years correct? Are the trust I trust you?...Ah!" Kangxi's angry voice rushed into Mingzhu's ear hole, shaking his eardrums a little!

"Slave..." Kangxi scolded him sternly. Of course Mingzhu wanted to reply, but after saying two words, he burst into tears. For more than twenty years, how could this power be lost?

"If you cry, you will know how to cry! You were crying today? Then do you know how many people made you cry!" Kangxi kicked Mingzhu to the ground and said angrily.

"Emperor, I... I am guilty, so you kill me!" Kangxi's kick was very reasonable, and Mingzhu only hurt her. Although Mingzhu felt uncomfortable, she also understood what Kangxi meant. When her heart warmed up, it suddenly rained heavily!

"Kill you? Do you think I don't want to kill you?" Kangxi then said angrily: "Your sin is not enough to die ten times!..."

"My servant knows that he deserves to die..." Mingzhu said sobbing.

"Since you deserve to die? Yes, you deserve to die if you deserve to die, but you don't have ten thousand lives!... Otherwise, I would really want to try my own knife!" Kangxi returned to the throne angrily, glared at Mingzhu, who was sobbing there with his head down, and then looked at Gao Shiqi who was kneeling on the side, and Soetu who had been standing on both sides of the imperial case with a stern face. Xiong Cilu and the others finally suppressed their anger.

Mingzhu cannot be killed!

In the past three days, almost all the officials of the six ministries and nine ministers wrote memorials to impeach Mingzhu, and they were basically involved in his bribery and corruption and appointing private individuals. Kangxi believed that he must punish such a crime. However, there was a memorial among them that impeached Mingzhu to be unfavorable to the prince, which would cause the problem to the fight between the prince's party. Moreover, the person who participated in Mingzhu was also a party of Soetu, so how could he not be suspicious? Since there was a trouble between the two parties, he could not kill one party and protect one party. In this way, Mingzhu would never be killed! Otherwise, Xiong Cilu was old and incompetent, Gao Shiqi was not strong enough, and he was guilty, so he would definitely not be able to restrain Soetu. At that time, Soetu was dominant, so the prince's power would threaten him, the emperor?

"Mingzhu, do you have something to say?" Thinking of this, Kangxi asked Mingzhu in a deep voice.

"I have nothing to say!" Mingzhu had a heart and a delicate orifice. Kangxi's kick was equivalent to telling him all his plans. What he had to do now was to step down according to Kangxi's words.

"...Hmph, you still have a hint of shame!" Kangxi snorted coldly, turned his eyes and looked at the others, "You said, Mingzhu committed such a serious crime, how should he deal with it?"

"Emperor..." Soetu fought with Mingzhu for so long, and seeing Mingzhu's current appearance, of course he was very happy. However, of course he would not be so shallow that he showed this mood on his face. In that case, if Kangxi saw it, he might have to continue to be unlucky. The two of them fought and were not clean. You are gloating here. Who knows what the emperor would think? Maybe he turned his back and forth and cured himself. So Soetu just looked at his nose and his nose as if he was in a state of concentration.

He stood there and had nothing to do and was secretly happy. He watched Kangxi scold Mingzhu without saying a word. Now he heard Kangxi suddenly ask him what Mingzhu should do, so he couldn't keep a wait-and-see attitude. Gao Shiqi was no longer qualified to speak, but Xiong Cilu was a little more loyal. If he said good things to Mingzhu first, wouldn't it be a bad thing? So, as soon as he heard Kangxi's question, he immediately shouted: "Your Majesty, Mingzhu is extremely guilty, and I think he should be punished to be a warning to others!"

"Xiong Cilu, what do you think?"

Kangxi ignored Suo'etu and turned his attention to Xiong Cilu again.

"The emperor... I think Mingzhu has a serious crime, but also a great achievement. Moreover, he has been in power for many years, and his disciples and former officials are everywhere. If he is killed, it will inevitably cause turmoil in the government. Therefore... I hope the emperor can be lenient in order to calm the hearts of all officials!"

Xiong Cilu thought about it and bowed and replied.

"…Well…Gao Shiqi, what do you think?"

After hearing Xiong Cilu's words, Kangxi did not comment and asked Gao Shiqi again.

"Your Majesty, Gao Shiqi is also a guilty person. I think he is not qualified to interfere in this case!" Soetu didn't expect that Kangxi would ask Gao Shiqi, although this guy is not strong in the court, he is good at talking and has always had close contact with Mingzhu. If he says anything that can impress Kangxi and save Mingzhu, wouldn't he be happy? Besides, Guo Xiu also participated in Gao Shiqi's several serious crimes. This guy should have left the study room from now on. But why did he listen to Kangxi's tone, and it seems that he would have a little intention of staying an official tone?

"Your Majesty, what Lord Suo said is very much. Gao Shiqi is guilty and should avoid suspicion!" Gao Shiqi knelt on the ground and said to Kangxi, he is not as stupid as Soetu. One of Guo Xiu's memorials was to participate in the "clients" of him and Mingzhu. He and Mingzhu are actually in the same case, but he only said that "criminal body" needs to avoid suspicion, but he did not say that he and Mingzhu are in the same case, so he needs to avoid suspicion. There are some discussions in the middle.

"If you tell me, just say, where are you talking? You are guilty, I know, but now I am asking Mingzhu how to convict you, but I didn't say you want to ask about your crime. What are you anxious about?" Kangxi said impatiently.
