Chapter 11 Military System Reform (4)
Chapter 11 Military System Reform (IV)
"Go and call me Lifan!" Zhu Yinglong, who had just returned to the southern study of Yangxin Palace from Zhang Yan, was in a very bad mood. The joy of having just tasted his wish was blown away from his mind in an instant.
Xu Yingyuan did not dare to be negligent, so he called a small yellow gate cleanly, whispered a few instructions, and the small yellow gate ran away.
Yan Hong and Lan Rong, who had learned that Zhu Yinglong had returned to the palace, also entered the Nan Study Room one after another. They were surprised to see the little eunuch running to the yellow gate. In a blink of an eye, they saw the emperor with a slightly frowning eyebrows, and their hearts were both "shocked". Logically speaking, the emperor should have a wish to taste it, just like a fish in water. How could he look frowning? Could it be that the two women exchanged their eyes quietly in suspicion and walked towards Zhu Yinglong side by side.
"Emperor." The two women called out in green voices.
"You are here." Zhu Yinglong looked up at the two girls, responding with a smile.
"Is the emperor tired? Let me squeeze you?" Yanhong was used to serving him, and a shallow light observed the lack of Zhu Yinglong hidden in the corner of his eyes.
"Yes, Hong'er knows my heart best!" After saying that, she put on a normal position to pinch Yanhong's shoulders and slowly closed her eyes.
The force on Yanhong's hand was just right, and it seemed to have a kind of magic. Her bad mood seemed to gradually improve under her control.
On the side, Lan Rong also joined in with the instructions of the bright red eyes, each of them allowed Zhu Yinglong to enjoy the blessings of the whole family.
After about a stick of incense, under the four clever little men, Zhu Yinglong was in a state of peace and was exhausted.
"Your Majesty, Master Lefan is here."
Zhu Yinglong opened his eyes. Although he couldn't bear to give up such gentleness, he still signaled Yanhong and Lanrong to avoid it for the time being.
"See the Emperor!" Lefan was wearing a gray monk's robe and floated in.
"No gifts." Zhu Yinglong thought for a while and continued, "It's been almost a year since the master practiced Zen and worshiped Buddha?"
"Yes, the emperor, a year has passed before he knew it." Li Fan said calmly.
"I want to ask the master for a question?"
"Prince, please say, Ping Seng who can answer will answer."
"Then I would like to ask the master, if one person faces a choice, if one person sacrifices, he can protect others. Master, what should this person do?" Zhu Yinglong asked slowly, looking directly at Fan.
The face of Lefan was very calm, and he could not infer the changes in his heart from his expression, but he heard him say, "If you give up, you will gain only if you give up."
"What the master means is to let this person sacrifice one person to save others?" Zhu Yinglong said.
"Actually, the emperor already has an answer in his heart, why bother to ask Pingshen again?" Lefan asked back.
"Yes, I have an answer in my heart." Zhu Yinglong stood up and walked to Fan and said, "But I don't want to use this answer."
"The emperor's heart is not strong enough." Lefandao.
"The master is right. My heart is indeed not strong enough!" Zhu Yinglong admitted, "It's not dark enough, not cold-blooded enough, right?"
Lefan said silently, which was considered a default.
Suddenly, a crisp and beautiful sound of "ding ding dangdang" came. Looking along the sound, it turned out that a breeze was blowing a bead curtain on the left side door, and the collision of pearls and jade made a pleasant sound.
"The wind is blowing." Zhu Yinglong said in a remarkable way.
"The wind is in the emperor's heart." Lefan said.
"Well, I know, you go down." Zhu Yinglong glanced at Fan, turned his face away, and said calmly.
"Ping Monk Takes Leave!" Liao Fan bowed slightly and turned around. Another breeze blew, blew up the corners of the gray cloth clothes, bringing another crisp sound.
The next day, the huge Hall of Supreme Harmony was full of people. In addition to those who were sick and asked for leave, all the officials in Beijing gathered here, from the hall gate to the imperial stairs, first breeze, then purple, and then big red. The grades were clear, standing with their heads down, as quiet as a chilly cicada.
"Why, no one reported the report today?" Zhu Yinglong walked into the Empress Dowager's Hall from the middle gate, sat on the dragon throne, glanced at the ministers, and found that there was silence below, so he asked in a deep voice.
"Censor Cao Yongzuo has a memorial!"
"speak!"
"I want to impeach Lord Shi Kefashi, the governor of Shuntian Prefecture, and judge the unfair case. I listened to and believed it, trampled on the court's laws and persecuted the meritorious officials of the court. I have a list of them. They are all jointly sued by the meritorious officials of the court who were persecuted by Shi Kefa. There are also some blood letters, which are all testimonies accusing Lord Shi Kefa of unfair law enforcement. Please make a decision impartially!"
“Support it!”
What should come will come. Zhu Yinglong Yu Guang glanced at Shi Kefa, who was standing among the ministers, and found that he was as calm as before. He obviously knew that someone would attack him this morning.
Regardless of whether these blood books were true or not, Zhu Yinglong was not interested in reading them. He just glanced at Xu Yingyuan and asked Xu Yingyuan to take them aside. In a blink of an eye, he shouted coldly at Shi Kefa who was standing below: "Aiqing Shi, can you admit the crime of impeachment of Censor Cao?"
Shi Kefa went out and bowed and said, "I have no guilt, so how can I admit the crime!"
"Nonsense, Shi Kefa, do you remember three months ago, you awarded the thirty acres of fertile land that originally belonged to the official's family to the Li family for no reason. My father argued with you and was beaten out by a stick by your yamen runner. My father was already weak and couldn't afford to get sick when he returned home. He died in a few days..." Before Zhu Yinglong could speak, he saw an official wearing a third-rank court robber and jumped out, pointing at Shi Kefa with red eyes and cursing.
"Mr. Wang, your father forced his thirty acres of land from the Li family for 300 cents. The land deed of the Li family was snatched back from the Li family by your father. Seeing that he was old, I awarded the land to the Li family, but did not make too much trouble for him. He went to the government office to make trouble and broke into the lobby of the government office. It was already light for me to ask someone to beat him out by sticks." Shi Kefa snorted coldly and argued.
"Your Majesty, my father bought the land from the Li family. With the land deed as evidence, Shi Kefa enforced the law randomly and ignored human lives. Please ask the emperor to make the decision for the weak ministers!" But when Wang Yuanye knelt down in front of the imperial stairs, he cried and cried.
"The Censor Cheng Wanli has a book, impeached Shuntian Prefecture Prefecture Prime Minister Shi Kefa, corrupt and abused the law, and took human life aside..."
"I have a book, too..."
"I have a book, too..."
"I have a book, too..."
...
After a while, two-thirds of the officials in the hall knelt down all of a sudden, all of whom were impeaching Shi Kefa.
Zhu Yinglong, sitting on the dragon throne, suddenly felt a sense of powerlessness in his heart. Most of the remaining third of the officials were old people in the palace. Shi Kefa was angry this time. He knew that what he was doing was right, but he could only temporarily lose his car to protect his handsome man.
"I will issue an imperial edict to remove Shi Kefa Shuntian Prefecture from his post as the prefect of Dali Temple." Zhu Yinglong had no choice but to issue an imperial edict that he would not want to do.
"The emperor is wise!"
In the eyes of these people, Shi Kefa's fate has been decided, but officials with a keen sense of political touch feel that this is not that simple. Shi Kefa was dismissed and was not taken to the Ministry of Justice Prison, but was detained to Dali Temple. It is a bit interesting here. You should know that Dali Temple is He Tengjiao's territory. Shi Kefa and He Tengjiao have a close relationship and have worked together. Naturally, they would not make things difficult for him. The Ministry of Justice is Yang He's territory. Yang He has always been in trouble with Shi Kefa and others. If Shi Kefa falls into his hands, he will be afraid that he will be skinned even if he doesn't die.
