Chapter 372 Let them make as much noise as they want
Xiao Jing was lying outside the Nuan Pavilion, with his head close to the brick floor. Looking from the perspective of Emperor Hongzhi, blocked by the threshold, he could only see Xiao Jing's lean back and high buttocks.
Zhu Youtang put down his pen, looked at him, and after a while asked: "How's it going?"
"If I return to the emperor, Liu Xiyao and his wife and children in Beijing have been arrested."
"What's the situation? Did Liu Xiyao say anything?"
"Liu Xiyao didn't say anything. He and his family didn't resist, they just made a little noise."
Speaking of this, Xiao Jing raised his head, looked at Emperor Hongzhi's face, and then added: "When taking the person, Liu Xiyao repeatedly asked what crime he had committed, and cursed a few unpleasant words at Commander Mou. But Mou
The commander's answer was treason, but he just said that. He was worried that he would overreact, so he did not explain too much. Liu Xiyao didn't know about Changping, so he didn't resist much. Now he is imprisoned in the imperial prison."
Emperor Hongzhi's face moved, and then he said something a little unusual, "It's hard for Mu Bin."
Commissioner Xiao Jing really didn't know how to answer these words, so he was speechless, but Emperor Hongzhi then spoke again: "Tell me, what kind of person is this Wang Shouren?"
"My slave thought that just by looking at his past anecdotes, I thought he was an abnormal person. But looking at what he did in Changping Prefecture, I thought he was a capable minister and official."
Xiao Jing was a little confused and didn't know why the emperor asked such a question, but he still answered honestly. After that, he looked up at Emperor Hongzhi again, waiting for the emperor to answer.
"Are they capable ministers and officials, not cruel officials?"
"It's a bit cruel, but since it is a reform, I think it is understandable for Wang Shouren to do this." Hearing this, Xiao Jing became more and more confused. After saying this, he added another sentence, "He who knows people is wise.
Your Majesty is the wise man, but this servant is a foolish person and doesn't know how to recognize people."
"Since you don't know how to recognize people, let me tell you that this person does great things without sacrificing his own life. He is a minister, but he has not been able to find a career."
"Do you think I'm right?"
"Your Majesty is right, I will submit to you." Xiao Jing quickly flattered him without any hesitation. What's more, this was not flattery.
Wang Shouren had offended many people during the reform. When the news came, the ministers in the court still didn't know what to think of him. This was indeed a failure to find a career.
But how can one cherish his body when doing great things? If he cherishes his body and cares about the so-called officialdom and the so-called reputation, he will not be able to do this well.
There are very few things in this world that have the best of both worlds. It is often a matter of making a choice. Even as an adult, it is difficult to have both.
"Let me talk about you again. You, Xiao Banban, are not the wisdom of ignorant people, but the wisdom of ignorant people."
Xiao Jing's heart suddenly trembled, and his face suddenly changed, but he didn't know what Emperor Hongzhi meant by his words.
Those who know the current affairs are heroes.
But now Emperor Hongzhi says that he does not know the wisdom of the times. Does this mean that he does not know the current affairs?
Thousands of thoughts suddenly flashed through his mind, but no matter what, he didn't know how he was ignorant of current affairs, so he had to kowtow repeatedly: "Your Majesty, forgive me, but I will die forever."
Seeing him kowtow repeatedly, looking timid and humble, Emperor Hongzhi's face looked better, "Mu Bin is a warrior, it's just that he has no brains in doing things. Even you have no brains, and you actually kill people."
You were sent to the imperial prison, are you pig-minded! Can you be sent to the imperial prison?"
Upon hearing this, Xiao kowtowed for a moment, then kowtowed a few more times, and then stopped completely. It turned out that this was what happened.
Now that he knows what has not been done, it will be easier to explain. He considered his words and said carefully: "I was thinking before that it would be more appropriate for such a treasonous criminal to be sent to prison, which would also better show that the emperor is serious about this matter.
attitude, so I was sent to prison, but I didn’t want the slave to take it for granted.”
After that, he began to kowtow again and again, shouting, "I am incompetent. I have done something wrong. I hope your Majesty will forgive you."
Seeing his timid expression of peeing and moaning, Emperor Hongzhi's expression completely softened, "Okay, stop knocking. The factory guards below have had a lot of complaints against me over the years. They always said that I suppressed their factory guards.
Factory guards are not reused.
Now, I have given full power to the factory guards to handle this matter. I have left it to you, the admiral of the East Factory, and to the commander of the Jinyi Guards. I want you to do things for your convenience, but you have done it like this for me and sent people to prison.
, luckily you figured it out!"
"Then this slave will go and take the person in, take him out, and take him in." He didn't even say a word of punishment, only half of it. Xiao Jing paused, then raised his head carefully, and asked carefully: "Please, the emperor."
Please give me a clear indication of where this slave will take you."
"What a pig-headed person. The crime Liu Xiyao committed was treason, and he violated the national law. If he is not sent to the prison of the Ministry of Punishment, where do you want to be detained? You are still asking me now. If he is sent to the prison of the Ministry of Punishment, he will be in charge of the Three Laws Division and those officials.
Go and try the matter and convict Liu Xiyao of the crime of rebellion."
"This slave is indeed a stupid pig-brained person. The emperor is angry. If the emperor calms down, the slave will take him out and take him to the prison of the Ministry of Punishment."
At this time, Xiao Jing had already thought about it. This must be the emperor hitting him again. As for the reason, he still couldn't figure out the reason, but he could not help but feel panic.
And Emperor Hongzhi was indeed beating up this minion. After all, he went out on errands after receiving the order, but he still went to arrest a third-grade courtier.
Now that the matter is done, it must be beaten. If it is not beaten, it will be easy for the person to float. When a person floats, it is easy for him to have thoughts that he shouldn't have.
Being sent to prison was an excuse for him to beat him up. Even if everything was done and he couldn't make mistakes, he still had to find faults and beat him up.
After all, he is a close companion and an internal minister. Unlike those external ministers, this is the person around him. How can he feel at ease when he is beaten from time to time?
Now that he has finished beating, his expression has calmed down, "Get up. I ask you, what are you going to say to the officials when they are taken to the prison of the Ministry of Punishment?"
"My slave, just say it." Xiao Jing was about to say something, but he held it back and said, "Your Majesty, please give me a clear explanation."
Emperor Hongzhi took out the memorial he received in the evening, "Take this memorial, summon the officials from the Three Law Departments and the Sixth Cabinet Department, and ask them to read it carefully. You can stay with me."
Standing there, standing there steadily, guarding and staring at every step.
After they have finished reading, you ask them what crime they committed, how their family members rebelled, and how they should be dealt with. Let them say, don't worry about who is making noise about this matter, let them make noise as much as they want, and then you come back and report to me.
, have you written it down?”
"I will take note of what I said to the Emperor."
Zhu Youtang hummed and shook the report in his hand, "Take it and go on errands."
"Yes, this slave accepts the order."
Xiao Jing then got up from the ground, stepped forward to receive the memorial, and then bowed his body and bowed out respectfully.
PS: The business of spreading a small family into an acre is about to come to an end. This is not water, this is paving the way for the end.
