Chapter 50 Kill without mercy
Seeing Qi Ming, who was an official in the same dynasty, he understood what he was thinking.
Liu Zaifu nodded with satisfaction, "Yes, Jingzhou is quite indifferent at the junction of the southeast camp and the southwest camp. If the prince wants to solve this rebellion, he can't even mobilize a single soldier. What do you think?
Does this count as shooting yourself in the foot?"
Hearing this, Qi Ming was immediately overjoyed.
"Master Zaifu, with both wisdom and courage, can be regarded as a model for our generation."
"As a powerful minister in charge of foreign affairs in the Wu Dynasty, the most taboo thing is internal strife and rebellion." Liu Zaifu said calmly.
Qi Ming paused after hearing this, realizing that this statement had two meanings.
The first is that Qi Ming is a powerful minister in charge of diplomacy. He should have his own unique skills in how to persuade ministers to obey the prince's orders and go to court together.
The second level is that internal strife and rebellion cannot occur in diplomacy, so when a rebellion occurs, as a great minister, he should be accountable to the prince. Even if the prince harbors hatred towards him, he does not dare to touch him in the slightest.
"Your Excellency is absolutely right." Qi Ming complimented, "I will take my leave."
"Yeah." Liu Zaisu nodded.
The Censor of Xiuyi has always been hidden in the deepest part of the court, and many people don't even know of their existence.
But if they really go out, it will be shocking!
After Qi Ming came out of the Prime Minister's Mansion, he was about to go back home. Unexpectedly, he met the Taibu Qing Ju Xinsi's mansion on the way. Jiang Chang stood outside the mansion with his troops and knocked on the door many times but no one answered.
"Sir Ju, although the Xiuyi Censor may not be able to say that his hands and eyes can reach the sky, he still knows exactly where the officials in the court are and who they are with."
"You are hiding behind closed doors like this, but you want to resist the order and disobey it?"
Jiang Chang has practiced martial arts since he was a child and is naturally full of energy.
Even Qi Ming, who was a block away, could hear these words clearly.
He looked from a distance and took this opportunity to see what the embroidered clothes censor was really capable of.
Seeing that there was no sound coming from inside or opening the door, Jiang Chang winked at the person next to him, and then the person next to him inserted a knife into the crack of the door, and used a skillful force to gently lift it, and the bolt used to hold the door fell to the ground.
Ju Xinsi had actually been sitting in the lobby for a long time, and he screamed when he saw the door being opened.
"Who asked you to break in?!"
"I, Ju Xinsi, am the divination official of the current dynasty. I am also an official of Taichang Temple. Aren't you afraid of causing trouble to the prince if you rush in like this?"
Ju Xinsi's voice was sharp and harsh.
He never expected that Censor Xiuyi would dare to break into his mansion directly.
This is not taking the emperor seriously, let alone the authority of Taichang Temple!
Jiang Chang sneered: "So what about Taichang Temple? Lord Ju, do you know that all officials in the world are under the authority of the emperor? How dare you close the door and refuse to answer the prince's order, fearing that you will rebel against heaven?"
"The prince wants to have a morning court, but he wants all the officials to accompany him to play house? Now that Emperor Wu has not died, the prince dares to openly usurp the throne, and wants to drag us into the water together. I, Ju Xinsi, was the first to refuse!
"
Although Ju Xinsi was a civil official, he was in charge of astrological divination matters and rarely interfered with political affairs.
But Emperor Wu trusted him very much. In the past, when sending troops to go on an expedition, Ju Xinsi would make a prediction in advance. Lian Zhan led his troops to a great victory over the Xiongnu, and many military achievements were recorded on him.
He was only an official of the fifth rank, but he had the same status as Taichang Cheng in the court.
Therefore, even though he knew that the prince would read the memorial every day, he still dared to use astrology to slander Li Yunxing in the memorial. It was because of the trust of Emperor Wu that he dared to be so unscrupulous.
"Master Ju, will you accept the prince's oral instruction or not?"
Before Jiang Chang could say a few words, Ju Xinsi interrupted him with a wave of his hand.
"What the hell, I don't care what he says, a mere prince still dares to hold a morning court, has his hair grown?"
Seeing that Ju Xinsi didn't appreciate it at all, Jiang Chang still smiled.
"Lord Ju, are you prepared to resist the decree?"
Ju Xinsi laughed loudly after hearing this: "I am really ignorant. What authority does a mere prince have to dare to issue an order?"
"Then let me send you on your way."
As soon as Jiang Chang finished speaking, the people behind him were already drawing swords and going into battle.
They were already impatient with waiting.
This old man, relying on being on the same boat as Liu Zhongqing, actually repeatedly disobeyed the prince's orders.
I will operate on him today to warn all civil and military officials that the prince's words cannot be questioned!
"You...you dare!"
When Ju Xinsi saw this, his face turned green and he started shouting.
At this time, Qi Ming could no longer hide and got off the carriage directly, "Save someone under the knife!"
Jiang Chang had long noticed that there was an official's carriage parked opposite. When he looked back, he realized that it was Da Honglu Qi Ming.
"Master Ju has been an official for many years, but now it is just a moment of confusion. There is no need to shout and kill like this, right?"
Qi Ming came down and quickly helped smooth things over.
"Master Qi! Fortunately you are here, otherwise I would have been murdered by the prince's gang!"
As soon as Ju Xinsi saw the helper, his courage, which had been frightened, suddenly came back to him.
"Mr. Ju, could it be that you have forgotten that the emperor has the final say in the court now. Although the prince is the crown prince, he must abide by the will of the emperor. Otherwise, how can he be in charge of the court?"
"this……"
Ju Xinsi never expected that Qi Ming, as Liu Zhongqing's confidant, would actually speak for the prince's people.
He looked at the other person's eyes again, and it seemed that he didn't say anything sarcastic. Do you really want him to go to court in the morning?
"Master Qi, as a great master, is indeed more skilled than this thousand-year-old bastard."
Jiang Chang scolded two people in one sentence, but Qi Ming couldn't refute. Do you want to say that he is worse than the tortoise, or that he is even worse than the tortoise?
"Who do you think is the bastard?" Ju Xinsi became even more angry.
"It doesn't matter, the shrunken bastard will be beheaded one day." Jiang Chang raised his hand.
The people around him raised their swords and dropped their swords. Ju Xinsi didn't even make a sound as he lay directly in front of Jiang Chang.
Qi Ming was even more shocked when he saw it.
How dare the Censor of Xiuyi kill someone in front of him?
When Jiang Chang ordered people to drag the body away, he accidentally bumped into Qi Ming's shoulder.
But the way Jiang Chang looked at Qi Ming definitely didn't look like he was doing it unintentionally.
Only then did Qi Ming react, swallowed, and asked, "Are you killing innocent people indiscriminately?"
"Master Qi, why did you say this? Didn't you watch the whole process from the side?"
Jiang Chang was talking about Qi Ming hiding in the carriage and peeking.
"Master Ju didn't want to go just now. I gave him some good advice and he will definitely go. But you just killed him?"
Jiang Chang seemed to have no idea at all, "Oh? That's it."
"That's such a shame."
"Master Qi, you have to run faster behind us. We still have dozens of palaces of imperial officials to convey the decree to. Unlike Master Qi, the Censor of Xiu Yi has such a leisurely and elegant mood and travels around the capital in a carriage in the middle of the night."
