There is only one way to solve the behavior of these aristocratic families, that is, kill without mercy.
Of course the emperor would not do so randomly, so he had to kill him one by one.
The most important thing for them is to solve Du Mingsi first.
As the saying goes, we must first settle the country when fighting foreign countries. This is exactly the truth.
Du Mingsi has been too honest recently, and something is a bit too wrong.
Du Mingsi was waiting for the aristocratic family to take action, and he just needed to choose to watch how the aristocratic family fought with the emperor next to him.
The emperor was really troubled. At this time, Su Fang said to the emperor: "The situation now has stabilized, the Ministry of Personnel and the Ministry of Justice."
"The officials who took office have almost finished their work. Although there are still some shortcomings, they have to give them some time."
"Since Du Mingsi is so calm, let's go further and see how Du Mingsi handles it."
When the emperor heard this, he asked, "How to go further?"
"Isn't there four departments to start?"
"Recently, many officials have been recalled from all over the country, and these people have been ready for some time. It's time to put them in power."
Su Fang said to the emperor.
The emperor understood, smiled, and said, "This is indeed a good idea. If Du Mingsi doesn't move, it doesn't mean we can't force him to move."
"If he lets him continue to watch the show and wait until he and those aristocratic families unite against me, then I will be at a disadvantage."
"The emperor is wise. Anyway, the Jinyiwei has possessed a lot of their evidence of crime. As long as one of them is touched, everyone will be in danger of the rest." Su Fang replied.
The officials in the court, from the first to third ranks, were all from the Jiangnan area.
If they have nothing to do with those aristocratic families, who would believe it?
These people, led by Du Mingsi, have been seeking benefits for the Jiangnan family for many years.
Even if they retire, the people who have been promoted are all children from Jiangnan. As for the poor families and people from other places, they cannot enter the core of the court.
In the long run, they had been protecting each other, or were united in marriage.
A series of chains of interests have long been formed between them.
If you want to eradicate it, you must be determined and take it into consideration in one fell swoop, so that the root cause of the chaos can be completely eradicated.
Although this will cause damage to the Qin Dynasty, it is indeed necessary to do the future of the Qin Empire.
Every change is a reshuffle, and it requires blood and sacrifice.
Su Fang said to the emperor: "The emperor's humble minister suggests that you either don't move. Since you move, you must be quick, accurate and ruthless, and don't give them any chance to fight back."
"Don't even give them a chance to breathe and react. Of course, this will definitely lead to a lot of impeachment from Commander Mao Jiarong, but this is also the best way."
Su Fang had already said this to Mao Jiarong, so when Su Fang finished saying this, Mao Jiarong immediately stood up and said:
"Emperor, everything I have given to me is given by the emperor. As long as I can help the emperor and seek benefits for the people of the Qin Dynasty, even if I die, I will definitely regret it."
"So, I beg the emperor to hand over all these things to me. I will bear all the consequences."
The emperor looked at Mao Jiarong and said, "This will make you feel wronged. I feel sorry for you!"
"As long as the emperor understands me, I will never refuse to die. Even if I smile, I will be grateful to the emperor." Mao Jiarong replied.
A few days later, the Jinyiwei directly arrested Tian Xiang, the Minister of Revenue for dozens of charges such as murder, embezzlement, and forcibly robbing a civilian girl...
Then he started to search the house directly, arresting hundreds of people from all over the Tian family into the Jinyiwei Zhao Prison.
Finally, Mao Jiarong searched out a large number of antiques, money, and evidence of crimes involving various officials.
Mao Jiarong's actions were so fast that no one responded.
By the time they realized it was too late.
Minister of the Ministry of Revenue Tian Xiang pleaded guilty, pleaded guilty, and involved countless officials dismissal.
The next day, the emperor was furious, furious, cursed Tian Xiang, and directly locked him in a death row, and ordered all the officials involved in the case to be detained for interrogation.
Du Mingsi was still very silent, looking like he was not concerned about his own affairs, and did not say a word until the end of the court.
However, other officials began to condemn Mao Jiarong for abusing his lynching, framed the blame, and asked for a clear investigation, which was to protect Tian Xiang anyway.
Unfortunately, Du Mingsi did not speak, and the emperor even punished them for one year's salary.
These officials naturally didn't care about these salaries, but they were very puzzled about what Du Mingsi meant, and they didn't say a word from beginning to end.
They joined forces to find Du Mingsi, but Du Mingsi refused to let go of his physical discomfort and saw no one.
"what to do?"
"What's wrong with the Prime Minister? He's so silent?"
"If we don't let them find a way, even we will be in danger if this continues."
"Yes, yes, I'm very worried that the Jinyiwei will seal my house next."
Just as the Minister of Works finished speaking, a group of Jinyiwei arrived as promised and said directly to Ji Yuxin, the Minister of Works, and said, "Sir Ji, come with us."
"Why do you want to arrest me? I am a second-rank minister in the court!"
"Prime Minister saves me, I don't want to go to the Jinyiwei Zhao Prison!"
"The emperor is wronged, I want to see the emperor!"
Mao Jiarong, the commander of the Jinyiwei, captured the second-rank minister and entered the imperial prison just outside the Prime Minister's Mansion.
Mao Jiarong did this but did not give Du Mingsi any face at all, and even deliberately slapped him in the face.
But Du Mingsi was still very silent, allowing Mao Jiarong to be arrogant, and still ignored other officials. He still lay on the chair of the Grand Master, continuing to slid his two walnuts.
"Prime Minister, are we just letting the emperor take control? Will this fire burn directly to us at that time?" Mo Yuan asked.
"Master Mo Yuan, our goal has actually been achieved. Isn't our goal to cause the emperor to rebel against all his ministers?"
"These ministers are supported by those aristocratic families. As long as these ministers fall, do you think those aristocratic families can still sit still?"
"Believe me, those aristocratic families will soon send someone to contact me. At that time, I will definitely burn this fire more vigorously."
"When there is civil strife in the entire Qin Empire, then our Daning Empire will be able to completely swallow this huge territory without any effort."
Du Mingsi expressed his opinion and was very proud.
After all, all of this was his credit.
It was lurking in the Qin Empire for decades, just for this moment.
Originally, he planned to wait for the emperor to die, support the second prince to succeed to the throne and finally replace him.
Unfortunately, all this was disrupted by the emperor. He didn't know who was giving the emperor advice, which not only made his plan fail, but also put him in a dilemma.
Since that's the case, he simply followed the original plan and let the entire Qin Empire fight the aristocratic families to the death.
After the Daning Empire was completely attacked, it was his fiefdom, and the result was similar.
It’s just that one is to be the emperor and the other is to be the king.
After hearing Du Mingsi's words, Mo Yuan asked, "Our reinforcements have arrived, how to arrange them?"
"Don't expose it, that's our trump card, so hide it forever." Du Mingsi said.
