"Jian Shangshu, Xia Shangshu, and all your colleagues, what do you think?"
These important ministers were as if they had eaten fly shit, and they were not so bullying. The few people at the top of the food chain, during the first Xun meeting, instead of dealing with official business, went to watch beheadings.
This is too ridiculous.
No matter what, I can't agree to it, otherwise what's the point of being decent and polite?
Jian Yi looked at several of his colleagues, looked up to the sky and sighed.
"Rujun's case was caused by the laxity of discipline and Wen Tian's martial arts. We are assisting Your Majesty to eliminate Jianwen's bad government, and we should take this as a warning. Xu Tongzheng led us to see the fate of corrupt officials. It is a warning to people's hearts. It is true.
He has good intentions. Just follow him."
After saying that, Jian Yi stood up and said with a smile: "Xu Tongzheng, do you have any other instructions?"
Xu Jingchang blinked and said with a smile: "Nothing else, let's change into regular clothes so as not to disturb the people."
Jian Yi nodded in agreement.
The remaining ministers were still hesitating. Xia Yuanji smiled and said, "Stop being so sad. Let's go together. Let's go together."
It is indeed remarkable that these two people were appreciated by Zhu Di and were in charge of personnel, money and food.
When Huang Fu and others heard this, their expressions suddenly collapsed, like a mouse seeing a cat.
At this moment, a person suddenly ran over.
This guy screamed heart-breakingly, and several criminals who were about to be beheaded also started shouting.
"What about the Ministry of War? What did the Ministry of War do?" Xu Jingchang asked curiously.
His voice was not high, but Xu Jingchang could hear clearly, "Emperor Taizu Gao made a rule that those who indulge in sixty taels of ink will have to peel off the day lily. Is it possible that the Ministry of Rites doesn't know about it?"
"It's unjust, I'm unjust! All the things I did were to help the emperor succeed in appeasing the troubles. I am a minister with meritorious service. Your Majesty can't just kill the donkey to take the trouble!"
But there is no doubt that the officials were working very hard on building the road to Qinhuai, for fear that potholes would appear and affect the adults' interest in having fun.
Xu Jingchang was stunned for a moment, and then he understood. Maybe he would have to thank these big guys. Without them, who spared no effort to poach, Zhu Di would not have been able to successfully pacify the enemy.
Xu Jingchang also knew that it was outrageous to say that an important minister had misappropriated Tianjie stones to build a road to the Qinhuai River.
Xu Jingchang looked at the time. It was not far from noon, so he took the initiative to go to the window.
"You can tell me how this case was handled and what specific crimes were convicted."
"What? He's going to be beheaded? What is he going to do?" Zhu Di asked.
"Military rations? Is the quantity large?"
"Long live my emperor!"
Good guy, he can even make fun of Lao Zhu’s mausoleum. Zhu Yunwen is really a filial and good grandson.
But at this time, Chen Ying was overjoyed and immediately said: "Xu Tongzheng is a clear mirror. His subordinates sealed Zhang Mu of the Ministry of Industry. After verification, in the past four years, there was a deficit of up to five million taels, converted into silver.
Particularly abominable among them is that the Ministry of Industry dared to cut corners when building the Xiaoling Mausoleum, which is simply crazy!"
Boy, I read that right!
Everyone had no choice but to come over one after another.
The Ministry of War and the Ministry of Industry were just two ministries. Zhu Yuanzhang had killed all the officials below the rank of Minister of the Six Ministries in one go. In comparison, this could only be regarded as a small and peaceful scene.
At this time, Song Li, the Minister of Rites, muttered: "It's just greed, isn't it too much?"
And Xu Jingchang's move is the best way to establish his authority.
National affairs are no joke, especially at this time when the old and the new are changing.
Zhu Neng frowned. These guys had been greedy for so much money, how could they still have the nerve to complain?
"Someone, shut their mouths!"
Especially Zhu Di. He accepted Yao Guangxiao's suggestion and asked Xu Jingchang to lead the Xun meeting. To be honest, Zhu Di was not sure. After all, this guy was too young.
Chen Ying continued: "The main problem of the Ministry of War is the embezzlement of military supplies."
It's just that Zhu Di has become emperor, and no matter what, he can't use these big beetles anymore.
Zhu Di thought for a while and nodded vigorously, "Okay! It is indeed good! Jianwen corrupted the national code and the laws and regulations were relaxed. I will start by sorting out the officials and restore the prosperous age of Hongwu."
Emperor Taizu Gao, the man who single-handedly established the Ming Dynasty, has just been gone for four years. He fought corruption with an iron fist and often shed blood, leaving a huge shadow on people.
Zhu Di called Xie Jin over again, "You go to the execution ground now to see how Xu Jingchang arranged it, what he said, what the courtiers said, and tell me later."
The people watching outside, not knowing who was taking the lead, suddenly fell to their knees on the ground.
"Cheng Guogong, my subordinate is Wu Shan, the left counselor of the General Affairs Department. I have been ordered by the General Affairs Secretary to send something here."
Hearing Chen Ying say this, everyone was awestruck.
Zhu Neng was startled.
Someone took the lead, and the courtiers went to Qinhuai to have sex with prostitutes, thinking it was a romantic and beautiful thing.
"It is determined that he embezzled state and people's money, amounting to a huge amount of tens of millions."
This matter can only be used as a breakthrough, but as expected, after an investigation, the Ministry of Industry is definitely the hardest hit area for corruption.
But something strange happened in the execution ground. Ru Yu was hit by Zhu Di and half of her life was lost. The interrogation in the past few days was completely ruined. But Huang Fu, the minister of the Ministry of Industry, was still breathing. He watched
When death is imminent, there is nothing left to worry about.
Song Li lowered his head in a hurry, not daring to speak.
Among all the people, Wu Shan was the most excited. Sir, he was so kind to me.
Those imperial edicts seemed to have unparalleled power.
Therefore, Zhu Di arranged to know Jin and come to attend the Xun meeting.
Xu Jingchang said calmly: "Everyone, I think we have a clear understanding of the rights and wrongs and the aspirations of the people. How about you go back and write down your thoughts today and hand them to Your Majesty. This can be regarded as the guideline for your future work."
It is really not unjust for the people from the Ministry of Industry to end up like this.
Wu Shan raised the book in his hand high and said loudly: "This is the imperial decree of Emperor Taizu! On the order of Emperor Taizu, corrupt officials are to be killed. If you still feel that you have been wronged, go and tell Emperor Taizu Gao."
Go for it!”
You can be careless in court affairs, but if something goes wrong in such private matters, you will have to wait until you have to wear your shoes.
The roar of the people was clearly heard upstairs, making the six ministers and nine ministers look bad.
Feel relieved!
All the important officials of the imperial court marched together to the execution ground. Although they were wearing regular clothes, there was no way there was no movement at all.
All the prisoners finally fell silent and hung their heads, waiting to die.
It was also during the thirty years of Lao Zhu's reign that the courtiers had become ruthless and were finally replaced by an emperor who was easy to bully. They were greedy for big projects and small for small projects.
"Everyone is here, let's witness with our own eyes the blood of dozens of corrupt officials, their bodies and heads missing."
Zheng Ci's face turned red, feeling somewhat embarrassed.
Let’s see who dares to look down on the people from the General Affairs Department in the future!
Doing this is simply more enjoyable than leveling up three levels in a row.
"There are many, at least more than three million dan, and there are also several large granaries from the Hongwu period. They are all empty, and all the grain stored in them has been stolen and sold."
This specification is quite scary.
Xu Jingchang looked at Zheng Ci, the Minister of Punishment, and then at Chen Ying, the Imperial Censor.
Zhu Di also thought about promoting some of his own people, but it was not enough to show kindness, he also had to establish authority.
"I want to see Your Majesty. I have a grievance!"
"In reply to His Majesty, Xu Tongzheng invited six ministers and nine ministers to go to the execution ground to observe the execution."
But as soon as he arrived, Xu Jingchang took the people away. After asking where he was going, Xie Jin was stunned and had to rush back to the palace.
Several of the people present were experts, and they would understand it after listening to it for a while.
At this time, Xu Jingchang also brought the big guys to the execution ground. The person in charge of supervising the execution today was not an ordinary person, but Zhu Neng, the Duke of Chengguo.
Zhu Di said this, but there was another truth in his heart, that is, it was difficult for Jing to seize power. There were too many civil servants who looked down on him. The matter of the Yongle reign was a thorn in his side.
Xie Jin said: "I asked, and I heard that Xu Tongzheng said that only by not forgetting your original intention can you achieve success."
"Wonderful, really wonderful! Looking at the court, the only one who can do such a thing is Xu Tongzheng. Your Majesty, are you still hesitant?"
It is impossible to verify who actually misappropriated Tianjie materials to build roads.
A great and talented man has become an errand learner, but Xie Jin is happy with it. This thing is so interesting and such a good show, you can't miss it.
One of the directors of the Ministry of Industry spent a hundred thousand guan of treasure money to buy a Qinhuai singer.
Zhu Di was startled and looked at Yao Guangxiao next to him, only to find that the old monk was already beaming with joy.
Not only read it, but also write your thoughts.
Xu Jingchang treats them as students...
My little one started to have chills last night and had a fever in the middle of the night. At about three o'clock, he started sweating until the afternoon. Now he is no longer sweating and his body temperature has dropped. But he is very tired, sore, his throat is uncomfortable, and he has no appetite.
But it’s not too heavy after all. I gritted my teeth and coded a chapter, and I don’t dare to neglect the new book issue.
Everyone, please pay attention and take care of yourself.
