Chapter 217: Killing chickens and monkeys with iron and blood methods
Since the establishment of the "Jinyiwei" department, both imperial ministers and local officials have become extremely cautious in their actions. Especially after the Jinyiwei uncovered a large number of corrupt officials, they beheaded some and imprisoned others.
This made all the officials feel a deep sense of taboo. Seeing the Jin Yiwei leader Fan Dongliu arrive in person, the officials present were frightened and secretly guessing, could someone else be in trouble?
"Commander of the Jinyi Guards, Fan Dongliu, meets the emperor's grandson. The emperor's grandson is a thousand years old!"
"Fan Aiqing, please get up!" Yan Lixu raised his hand. After half a year, he had already integrated the majesty of the emperor into his bones, and his every move was full of the majesty and pressure of the superior.
After thanking him, Fan Dongliu stood up and presented a memorial with both hands: "Emperor Taisun, I have my original intention to write this memorial!"
"Accurate!"
The little eunuch came over, carefully took the memorial from Fan Dongliu, and handed it back to Yan Li. Seeing this scene, Dongfang Shi and others felt something bad, and an ominous premonition arose in their hearts.
Everyone's eyes fell on the memorial in Yan Li's hand. They wished they had a pair of eyes that could see through everything and see clearly what was written on the memorial?
Suddenly, everyone couldn't help but feel a "thump" in their hearts, because the face of the emperor's grandson became extremely gloomy at this moment. After a while, Yan Li put down the memorial, and his face became even more terrifying.
"Fan Aiqing, is what the memorial says true?"
Fan Dongliu raised his head and said forcefully: "Hui Huang Taisun, it is completely true, and there is strong evidence here among my subordinates, which is enough to prove the crimes they committed."
"Crack!"
Yan Li angrily threw the memorial in his hand in front of Dongfang Shi and coldly snorted, "Master Dongfang, pick it up and take a look!"
brush!
Dongfang Shi's face suddenly turned pale, and the ominous premonition in his heart became even worse. He picked up the memorial on the ground with trembling hands and looked at it intently.
Suddenly, he trembled all over, and his body couldn't help shaking violently.
"Crack!"
The memorial in his hand fell to the ground, and the next moment he knelt on the ground with a thud and said in panic, "Emperor Grandson, Mr. Fan must have made a mistake. Haoran will definitely not betray the empire."
"Master Shangshu, you mean that I have wronged you!" Fan Dongliu's face turned cold and he looked unkind.
Dongfang Shi waved his hands repeatedly, "No! Master Fan, that's not what I meant! I think there must be some misunderstanding!"
Now, his son Dongfang Haoran has fallen into the hands of Jin Yiwei. Although Fan Dongliu is far inferior to him in rank, at this moment, he absolutely does not dare to offend him.
"snort!"
Fan Dongliu snorted coldly: "Misunderstanding! I ordered Young Master Dongfang Haoran and Holy Sect Charming Sect Saint Luo Fengyu to stay and fly together in Bashan for dozens of days. In order to capture the demon sect witch, our Jin Yiwei even lost a lot of masters. Finally,
If Dongfang Haoran hadn't tried his best to stop it, how could we have allowed that witch to escape!"
Hearing that Fan Dongliu had not caught the other party, Dongfang Shi secretly breathed a sigh of relief and said firmly, "Master Fan, you insist that the other party is a demon sect witch, do you have any evidence?"
The Holy Sect is what everyone calls it privately. Officially, the Holy Sect must be called the Demonic Sect.
Fan Dongliu smiled, with a deep disdain in his smile, "I'm sorry, Master Dongfang, but one day ago, I personally sent people to finally arrest and bring the demon sect witch to justice. She is now being imprisoned in my Jinyi Guard Prison, and has been since
A token was found on her body that proves that she is a demonic witch!"
"What!"
This turning point made Dongfang Shi's body go limp in an instant, and he fell to the ground, losing all his strength.
Almost all the officials present knew a part of the empire's history. Over the years, any official who had colluded with the Holy Sect had never had a good ending once they were exposed.
Looking at Dongfang Shi lying on the ground like a dead dog, Yu Wentian and others felt a sense of sadness in their hearts. They subconsciously looked up at the young man sitting on the dragon chair, and they all felt a huge sense of powerlessness.
"The great grandson of the Emperor, I have a secret that I want to tell you!"
"Please speak to the Yuqing family!" Yan Li said with a smile.
"Xiaoguan believes that the Great Examination in the World is a good thing that benefits the country and the people, and should be fully promoted! I would like to ask to be the chief examiner of this exam!"
When Yan Li heard the words, a hint of sarcasm appeared on the corner of his mouth, but it quickly disappeared. Yu Wentian was a sensible person. From what happened in Dongfang Haoran, they had already noticed that if they still objected, he, the emperor's grandson, would definitely
There are ways to deal with them. Since opposition is ineffective, it is better to use this opportunity to gain benefits.
Although the examiner is just a non-ranking position, he can determine the future of most students. If this can attract a large number of students, it will also be a huge benefit.
"Wei Chen seconded the proposal!" Situ Guang sighed inwardly and said in a deep voice.
"Wei Chen also seconded the proposal!" Qin Guozhu said helplessly.
The heads of the six ministries all fully agreed to this big test. Naturally, other officials had nothing to say and expressed their willingness to support this big test.
In response, Yan Li showed a satisfied smile.
"The river dragon elephant obeys the order!"
"Wei Chen is here!"
"I have appointed you to be the examiner of this great examination. You will be responsible for all matters concerning the primary and secondary examinations."
"Thank you, Crown Prince Weichen, for accepting your order!"
"Wang Yuan obeys orders directly!"
"Wei Chen is here."
"I have appointed you to be the deputy examiner for this great exam, and assist Jiang Shangshu in presiding over the exam!"
"Yes! Wei Chen takes the order!"
"Yu Wentian obeys the order!"
"My subordinate is here!"
"It is my fate that you will be the deputy examiner for this exam and assist Jiang Shangshu in presiding over the exam!"
"The humble minister accepts the order and will definitely live up to the trust entrusted by the emperor's grandson!"
After a series of orders, Yan Li announced his resignation.
As the saying goes, a slap in the face means a sweet date. What happened to Dongfang Haoran can be regarded as a warning to the monkeys. However, Yan Li does not want to completely break up with the major families. Although he is sure to uproot them, that will definitely cause turmoil in the empire.
, thus giving the Holy Sect an opportunity to take advantage.
After retiring from the court, all the officials felt sad. This morning the court ended with the victory of the emperor's grandson. From now on, his prestige will be even higher. After this great exam, a large number of young officials will be promoted. That is
When he completely rules over the Dayun Empire.-
"Master Fan, please stay!"
Dongfang Shiji hurriedly called out to Fan Dongliu and hurriedly greeted him. Dongfang Haoran was his only son. Especially, this son had extraordinary qualifications. He was only twenty years old and was already a master of the secret realm. He had trained him to succeed the family head.
Now that he is in the hands of Jin Yiwei, he is probably going to be in bad luck.
"Master Dongfang, what do you want?"
Just like the difference in the court, Fan Dongliu behaved extremely politely at this moment.
"Master Fan, can you allow me to meet Quanzi?" Dongfang Shi said with some earnestness.
"sure!"
………………
Returning to the imperial study, Yan Li couldn't help but let out a hearty laugh. After laughing, his face suddenly calmed down. Although he caught Dongfang Shi and others off guard this time, he didn't think they would completely compromise.
It's possible that the compromise was temporary, just to numb him.
In fact, he had a good idea. Yu Wentian and others had exactly this idea.
After handling official duties for the day, Yan Li returned to the Emperor Taisun's Mansion. Yu Xiaoxiao and Man Xin had already prepared everything for him and were waiting for his return.
In the past six months, Yu Xiaoxiao and Manxin have tried their best to serve him, and have completely transformed themselves into the role of a good wife. As for Tuoba Yu'er, they are still indifferent to Yan Li. Even after getting married, the two have not yet
Roommate.
"Husband, please have some tea!"
"Thank you!" Yan Li took the tea cup from Man Xin's hand and took a sip, but then his brows furrowed. Suddenly, Man Xin panicked, "Husband, doesn't the tea... taste good?"
"No! I thought of something!" Yan Li quickly restored his smile and took another sip. "Xin'er's tea-making skills have improved again, which is very good!"
Suddenly, a sweet smile appeared on Manxin's face.
After dinner, Yan Li secretly came to a secret courtyard in the backyard of the emperor's grandson's house. An old man in gray appeared and paid homage in a low voice, "See the emperor's grandson!"
"There's no need to be polite, Mr. Feng!" Yan Li nodded and said gently.
"Please, grandson!"
Yan Li followed Feng Lao into the small courtyard, and three more old men in gray came forward to kowtow. The four of them formed "Wind, Rain, Thunder and Lightning" and were worshiped masters raised by the Dayun royal family. They were all peerless masters at the half-step emperor level, so
Worried about Yan Li's comfort, Li Chengyun sent the four strongest people among his followers to protect him personally.
These four people are not only half-step emperors, but they are also proficient in a mysterious formation. If the four of them activate the formation, they can still fight against the emperor.
With the support of four worshipers, Yan Li strode into the room. In the room, a weak and handsome young man collapsed to the ground. When he saw him coming, his eyes could not help but let out a look of resentment.
"Who are you? Why did you sneak into the mansion?" Yan Li asked coldly, but just before he returned to the mansion, Feng Lao used the sound transmission to enter the secret and told him that he had caught an assassin.
The assassin's cultivation level is extraordinary, and he has the cultivation level of a small-scale king.
"snort!"
Facing Yan Li's question, the other party just snorted coldly and turned his head to the side.
"The great grandson of the Emperor, the technique this person practices is called "War God Jue", and he should be a descendant of the Meng family of Great Qin!" Feng Lao said.
"A member of the Meng family?" Hearing this, Yan Li's eyes suddenly turned cold. "The former commander-in-chief of the Qinglong Army, Yuan Kaishan, died at the hands of the Meng family!"
Thinking of this, murderous intent arose in his chest, and he stared at the other party coldly, "Tell me, what is your purpose of sneaking into my house?"
"snort!"
The other party still responded to him with a cold snort.
"You ignorant thing! Mr. Feng, chop off one of his fingers!" Yan Li said coldly!
"yes!"
"puff!"
Light and shadow flashed, a finger blew up, the other person's face turned pale, and his body trembled slightly.
Yan Li's voice continued, "Don't test my patience! Don't think that because you are from the Meng family of Great Qin, I don't dare to kill you! Tell me, otherwise, I will have your fingers and toes cut off and you will be tortured slowly
Kill you!"
"Kill or behead him as you please! If I, Meng Bai, blink my eyebrows, I am not a descendant of the Meng family!"
"Okay! Have some backbone! Mr. Feng, cut off his fingers and toes!" Yan Li said without emotion.
At this moment, his pale face suddenly turned white. If his fingers and toes were gone, he would become a complete cripple.
"puff!"
Another finger flew up and blood splattered!
"stop!"
At this moment, a figure broke into the courtyard and rushed into the room.
"Yu'er, why are you here?" Looking at Tuoba Yu'er who looked frightened and pale, Yan Li vaguely understood something, but felt an inexplicable blockage in his heart.
