Chapter One Hundred and Seventieth: The whole family of the Minister of Officials was destroyed

Jiang Wei was an official of the imperial court, so he was not afraid of these factory guards in flying fish uniforms. The first thing he saw in the crowd was Zhao Gao, who was surrounded by the crowd and sitting in the imperial chair.

He snorted coldly and said, "Eunuch Zhao, what do you mean by bringing so many people to my residence?"

Zhao Gao waved to Liu Jin, and Liu Jin knew what to do.

He took out a piece of paper from his arms, which was densely written with Jiang Wei's crimes.

"In the sixth year of Chengde, Jiang Wei, the minister of the Ministry of Personnel, sold his official position and obtained ill-gotten gains of 86,000 taels of silver.

In the spring of the seventh year of Chengde, the imperial examination questions were deliberately leaked, resulting in a conspiracy of 50,000 taels of silver.

At the end of the seventh year of Chengde, Jiang Wei, then the Minister of Civil Affairs, went on a large-scale purchase of land in Huainan, buying and selling it by force, injuring seventeen lives in total.

In the eighth year of Chengde, he colluded with the traitor Zhong Qiuhang and sought a total of thirteen official positions for the descendants of the two families...

In the 10th year of Chengde, when he was the Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, he engaged in nepotism, squeezed out loyal people, and falsely accused Li Ming, the former Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, of sending his family to the frontier...

At the end of the tenth year of Chengde...

Chengde..."

One after another, crimes that are too numerous to describe were completely disclosed today. Jiang Wei's face was filled with fear. These are all events of the past. How did they find out?

Huh, so what if we find out?

Even if I find out, I won’t recognize it!

Any of the above crimes are enough to make you irrecoverable!

After Liu Jin finished reciting Jiang Wei's crimes, Zhao Gao looked at him and said slowly: "What about Mr. Jiang, do you admit this crime or not?"

Jiang Wei snorted coldly and said: "Plead guilty? What crime do you plead guilty to? This all happened during the Chengde period, not to mention that this is just your one-sided statement. Why should I plead guilty?"

Besides, you are just a eunuch beside His Majesty, why should I plead guilty? If I break the law, I will be punished by the Ministry of Punishment. Who do you think you are? Dare to bring people to my residence? How dare you set up a private court?

Believe it or not, when you wait for the court meeting tomorrow, I will join forces with ministers from various ministries to intervene in your affairs so that you will never be able to stand up again!"

Zhao Gao sneered: "Master Jiang, at this moment, you still can't tell the current situation?"

Having said this, he stood up and walked slowly towards Jiang Wei, the two of them looked at each other.

Zhao Gao waved his sleeves and said loudly: "However, today I can tell you why I can do it to you today!

Dongchang, authorized by the imperial power, supervises all officials, kills them first and then reports them! This is the reason why I punish you!"

After saying this, Zhao Gao waved his fingers gently, and the long knife on the waist of a guard beside him was immediately unsheathed. In just a moment, Jiang Wei's head fell to the ground.

Jiang Wei died with his eyes closed.

This all happened too fast and was too shocking.

Everyone in the residence of the Minister of Civil Affairs saw their master's head falling to the ground. They all seemed to have lost their souls and screamed in panic.

Afterwards, Zhao Gao came to the Grand Master's chair, sat down, then waved his hand and ordered the people around him: "Do it."

More than a hundred masters of Dongchang began to massacre the Minister of Civil Affairs.

Two quarters of an hour later, no chickens or dogs were left in the dignified official department.

Later, Zhao Gao came to Daming Palace to resume his life.

Zhao Changqing has not gone to bed yet. He and Mi Yue are sitting outside the palace admiring the moonlight.

After Zhao Gao arrived, he immediately bowed to Zhao Changqing and said: "Your Majesty, I have already completed all the things you asked me to do. The entire family of the Minister of Civil Affairs was wiped out, leaving no one alive."

Zhao Changqing asked Mi Yue to go back to the palace to rest first.

Mi Yue is very sensible. Under such circumstances, it is naturally not easy for her to stay here, because she understands some things very well, so she listened to Zhao Changqing and left here.

After Mi Yue left, Zhao Changqing smiled at Zhao Gao and said, "You did a good job on this job. Not bad. Tell me, what kind of reward do you want?"

This news made Zhao Changqing very happy.

This official minister dared to openly challenge his authority that day. He must be a master whose wealth cannot be transferred. This kind of person is probably a loyal minister who serves the country and the people. Killing him will definitely gain a lot of stupidity points.

.

When Zhao Gao heard the word "reward", he immediately expressed fear. He bowed and said, "Your Majesty, you are serious. The purpose of establishing the factory guard is to solve your Majesty's worries. Zhao Gao does not dare to ask for rewards or the like."

Zhao Changqing laughed loudly and said: "You are quite sensible. I have written this down. Next, I will kill the other ministers. Do you understand?"

When Zhao Gao heard this, he was completely shocked.

It's not enough to just kill the official minister, but also kill the other ministers?

In this case, is there anyone else in the court?

To put it bluntly, people in high positions like them can't help but investigate. As a result, once the six ministerial positions are vacant, it will definitely cause turmoil in the court!

Zhao Changqing saw that Zhao Gao looked a little embarrassed, and didn't think much about it. He just felt that he might feel that the task this time was too heavy. After all, he was the Sixth Minister, so he said:

"Don't be nervous. I won't give you a deadline for this mission. Just kill them slowly. Okay, you can go back and rest after being busy for half a night. I'm tired too."

After saying that, he walked towards the palace.

Zhao Gao bowed deeply and said, "I send you off to Your Majesty!"

He was indeed a little tired.

My heart is even more tired.

No deadline?

If I were given a time limit, I would still feel confident, but if I wasn’t given a time limit this time, I wouldn’t feel confident!

Zhao Gao took a deep breath and left.

Although all the officials and ministers have been wiped out, he still has many follow-up matters to deal with.

For example, how to minimize the impact and consequences of this incident.

Soon, many people came to know about the complete destruction of the Ministry of Civil Service.

Prime Minister's Mansion.

Zhuge Liang is practicing calligraphy.

The steward of the mansion was shocked and hurriedly informed Zhuge Liang about the matter.

After he heard this, he just nodded lightly without paying much attention to it. He said: "This is an expected thing, so there is no need to panic. The factory guard's move was authorized by His Majesty, and his intention was to lay the foundation for the future."

The basis of the factory guard is to achieve the effect of knocking the mountain and shaking the tiger. Don't pay attention to it. Whoever jumps out at this pass will die."

There are some things that actually don't need to be said to this steward, but Zhuge Liang intends to cultivate him.

As soon as the official minister died, the other five ministers gathered together to discuss the matter.

The Minister of the Ministry of Punishment said: "The factory guards are really bullying people. They have just established it, and they dare to bypass our Ministry of Punishment and deal with the central ministers. If this continues, the country will not be a country!"

Huang Cheng, the Minister of Rites, sneered: "Didn't you listen to His Majesty? The Dongchang organization has the right to kill first and report later. It is His Majesty's special permission. Why do you have to get the approval of your Ministry of Punishment?"

The Minister of Punishment pondered for a moment and asked in shock: "You mean to say that from now on, my Punishment Ministry will exist in name only?"

Huang Cheng said: "What else?"

The Minister of the Ministry of Industry took the opportunity to speak: "Come on, you two, don't rush into arguing now, let's quickly talk about what to do about this matter! Mr. Jiang's whole family was wiped out, this matter cannot be let go like this, the factory guard is really bullying people too much.

!”

The Minister of War said: "Forget it, what else do you want? I heard that the factory guards had already found out all of Jiang Wei's crimes before taking action. To be honest, it's shocking! He deserves to be killed!"

Anyway, I will not give up my future for such a person! Because this matter itself was personally authorized by His Majesty, otherwise, a newly established court organization would dare to attack the minister?

The blame lies with Jiang Wei himself. He was in too much limelight the past two days and annoyed His Majesty!"

The Minister of the Ministry of Revenue frowned and said: "Then if your Majesty comes to the meeting tomorrow, should we take the opportunity to read a copy of Dongchang?"

Huang Cheng blew his beard and glared at the sound: "I said you are stupid or your head has not turned around? Didn't you listen to Mr. Xu? Jiang Wei's death was what he deserved!"

He violated the laws of the Wei Dynasty, and it would not be an exaggeration to die a hundred times! What opportunity can we use to participate in Dongchang? Huh? What opportunity can we use? I still advise everyone to just pretend that this matter has not happened!

Otherwise... the next unlucky one will be one of us!"

The Minister of Household Affairs was unwilling to accept it and said: "That would mean the whole family was wiped out... As colleagues of ours for many years, if it were this time..."

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by the Minister of War: "To put it bluntly, at this time, we have too much time to take care of ourselves! You might as well ask yourselves, who has nothing dirty on his body? Who can resist the investigation by His Majesty and Dongchang?

Having said that, Jiang Wei owes more lives than just his family? Anyway, I made it clear in advance that if he dies, he will die and it has nothing to do with me!"

"Yes, it has nothing to do with me."

"I'm dizzy and ready to resign and enjoy my old age!"

"In my department of punishment...forget it, I'll prepare some gifts tomorrow to honor Mr. Zhao Gaozhao, the factory guard's chief inspector!"

Shangshu of the Ministry of Finance: "..."

How did I get here?

I don’t know anything!
