"Wei Chen thinks what Mr. Li said makes sense. Back then, Jingtian Lie was so powerful that no one in the court would not rely on him. Moreover, some ministers would be retaliated against if they did not rely on him. This is really helpless."
"If they are all removed, I am afraid that innocent people may be accidentally injured and it will also cause turmoil in the court."
"Therefore, Wei Chen suggested that only those with bad behavior and officials with important positions should be eliminated, and the people should be informed to the world, and there would be no further investigation, lest Jing Tianlie use this to blackmail the ministers."
In fact, Long Chen had no personal grudge against Jing Tianlie. From the beginning to the end, it was Long Chen who was killing the Jing family members, and it was Jing Tianlie who suffered the loss.
As a first-class flying dragon general in the imperial court, Long Chen must consider the stability of the imperial court, rather than temporary quickness.
The empress nodded slightly and said, "General Long's words are fair. What do you think, dear ministers?"
All the ministers in the court felt that Long Chen acted fairly and did not take the opportunity to avenge his personal revenge.
Li Yizheng, a veteran cabinet minister, praised: "General Long is a true national scholar. He speaks and acts fairly. I admire him."
The ministers in the court had no objections, so the empress said: "Okay, let's ask the Ministry of Personnel and the Metropolitan Procuratorate to investigate those who hold important positions and those who have committed evil deeds, and let the rest be forgotten!"
The ministers all worshiped together: "Your Majesty is wise!"
After discussing the matter of rebellion, Wang Wei, Minister of the Ministry of War, came out and said: "Your Majesty, Jingtian Lie's family is still in custody in the cell of the Ministry of War. How should we deal with it?"
Jing Tianlie's mother is still in the cell, so these people can be killed.
Hu Chengfu, the Secretary of the Ministry of Punishment, came out to express his loyalty and said: "Jingtian Lie has rebelled against the country, and the ministers think that his family members should be beheaded! There are also family members of the Red Flame Army soldiers who defected, and they are not slaves!"
The empress is in a bit of a dilemma. The old lady is the wife of a meritorious minister and the mother of a traitor, so it is difficult to deal with her.
The Red Flame Army has taken away 40,000 people. If they deal with the family members, the attack area will be too wide.
Long Chen came out and worshiped: "Your Majesty, a gentleman never cuts off his heirs. Jingtian Lie is guilty and it has nothing to do with the old lady. Please send Jingtian Lie's family to Xixia to show your kindness."
"As for the soldiers of the Red Flame Army, they were also coerced by Jing Tianlie, and I thought it was inappropriate to deal with them."
It would be useless to kill Jing Tianlie's family. There were too many family members of the soldiers. Dealing with these people would only reduce the population of Great Zhou.
Send Jingtian Lie's family to Xixia and show it to the Red Flame Army officers. Jingtian Lie's family will be reunited, but they are far apart, which can shake the morale of the army.
The empress immediately understood what Long Chen meant and nodded: "Okay, let's deal with it like this. Send Jingtian Lie's family to Xixia. The families of the soldiers and soldiers of Chi Yan will not deal with it. Tell them that if they come back, I will forget the past!"
Hu Chengfu, the Minister of Punishment, returned to the train angrily.
The ministers of the DPRK felt that it was too cheap to deal with Jing Tianlie in this way, but Long Chen had already said it, so it was hard for them to say anything else.
After the court meeting ended, the empress returned to the inner court, while Long Chen and Di Luoxi returned to the West Palace.
The Ministry of Personnel and the Ministry of War immediately began to clean up those who had good relations with Jing Tianlie.
Wang He, the Minister of Rites, Xu Zhong, the Minister of Honglu Temple, and Hu Chengfu, the Minister of Punishments, were all involved in the cleanup, which vacated many high-ranking positions.
Long Chen was already a first-grade flying dragon general at this time, so naturally he would not compete for these positions.
Fengming Palace.
The second princess, Emperor Xingwan, dressed in mink fur, entered the royal study room. The empress was reviewing military reports sent from various places.
Gongsun Ming did a good job in Linjiang City and got started quickly, and Caishi City had Li Xiannan.
Over at Jade Buddha Pass, Wu Jian has 200,000 Long family troops guarding it. Xifeng City is under construction at all costs, which is equivalent to an extra fortress to the west.
After reading the military newspaper, I also looked at the recommendation list of the Ministry of Civil Affairs. All vacant official positions must be filled.
"Mother."
Emperor Xingwan smiled and sat down next to the empress.
"What bad idea are you planning again? The vacancies this time are all important positions, so you can't mess around."
There is no better way to know a daughter than a mother, and the empress knew Emperor Xingwan’s evil intentions.
"Mother... How can I have any bad ideas? I just want to share my mother's worries."
"Look, Queen Mother, my fourth sister has done so much for Queen Mother, but my sons and ministers can't do anything in the palace."
Compared to Di Luoxi, Di Xingwan really pales in comparison.
Since acquiring Long Chen, Emperor Luo Xi has repeatedly performed extraordinary feats, including capturing Linjiang City, seizing Caishi City, pacifying the pirates, and defeating Jing Tianlie. Each of his feats is enough to be granted the title of Marquis.
However, Emperor Xingwan could only play with poetry in the harem, which was not as good as the poetry that Long Chen recited casually.
The empress smiled and said: "You don't have to compete with Luo Xi, she has Long Chengen in her hands."
Emperor Xingwan said reluctantly: "I know that Long Cheng'en is a rare genius who can only be seen in a thousand years. I also have a powerful eunuch now."
The empress hugged Emperor Xingwan and said with a smile: "Are you talking about the eunuch named Tianze?"
The empress knew about Nangong's affairs. I heard that Tianze was very smart and very good at pleasing the women in the harem.
"What position do you want?"
The empress couldn't resist, as Emperor Xingwan had been pestering her for a long time.
If I don't give him a position, I'm afraid the Emperor Star Party will keep pestering me.
Emperor Xingwan chuckled and said, "Thank you, Empress! My son wants the position of Minister of the Ministry of Punishment."
The smile on the empress's face suddenly froze, and she said sternly: "The position of Minister is of great importance, how can we give it to someone so easily?"
As the Prime Minister of the Six Ministries, Shangshu has a very important position, especially the Ministry of Punishment, which is in charge of the world's punishments and prisons. If the people are not appointed properly, it will lead to unjust, false and wrong cases, and innocent people will die in vain.
Emperor Xingwan said aggrievedly: "Long Cheng'en was able to serve as two ministers at the beginning. In a large government office like the Ministry of Husbandry and the Ministry of Works, the ministers only had one Ministry of Punishment."
The empress shook her head and said: "No! The position of Minister is very important and cannot be easily compromised."
Emperor Xingwan shed tears and cried: "The queen is partial to the fourth sister. Long Cheng'en can do anything, but my son and minister can't do anything."
The empress couldn't see her daughter crying, so she explained: "Long Cheng'en was granted the title of Minister because he had made great contributions. That day Ze had no great achievements, so he was suddenly granted the title of Minister. How can I convince everyone?"
Long Chen defeated Yu Shinan, fought for the great Zhou Dynasty, and was later named the general manager. Later, he captured Linjiang City and was named Shangshu.
Emperor Xingwan cried and said: "My son can take it temporarily. If Tianze does not do well, I can resign. If he does well, my mother will officially appoint him."
The empress had no choice but to say: "It's just a trusteeship. If it's not done well, you can't argue anymore."
Emperor Xingwan wiped away his tears and said, "My son, I accept the decree."
The empress touched Emperor Xingwan's head and sighed: "It's still like this, how old it is."
Emperor Xingwan received the imperial edict and was very happy. He chatted with the empress for a long time before returning to Nangong.
When I walked to the corridor, I saw Long Chen walking on the snow towards the East Palace.
Emperor Xingwan stopped, looked at Long Chen's back, and sighed faintly: "Fourth sister is lucky, Tianze, you must strive for success."
Emperor Xing returned to Nangong in the evening.
Long Chen walked on the snow to the East Palace, making a crunching sound under his feet. He Ningxin, wearing a black cloak, led the way.
"Sister Ning Xin, why haven't you come to Qiuxing Hall recently?"
Long Chen teased with a smile.
This He Ningxin is the kind of woman who is very pretentious, always serious and looks sanctimonious.
Such a woman becomes even more coquettish and interesting when flirted with.
He Ningxin looked serious and said: "There are many things going on in the East Palace. The eldest princess always has tasks to assign, so she doesn't have time to hang around."
He looked very serious on the outside, but he was always restless on the inside. When walking, he deliberately twisted his waist, wore a slim-fitting dress, and put on makeup on his face.
Long Chen was used to hanging out with women in the harem these years, so he didn't understand He Ningxin's thoughts.
After walking half a step faster, Long Chen reached He Ningxin's side, put his hands into his cloak, held his waist, and teased through his clothes: "Sister Ningxin, is it true that she only cares about the Grand Duke's affairs and doesn't miss me? "
He Ning was ashamed but happy at the same time. She pretended to push Long Chen and said seriously: "What are you doing? You are disrespecting me in public."
Long Chen hugged her tighter and said with a smile: "I've been molested, how will you treat me?"
He Ningxin blushed, her breathing became slightly rapid, and she pretended to be angry: "I will tell the eldest princess that you molested me."
Long Chen pretended to be scared and said: "Sister Ning Xin, please say goodbye. If the eldest princess knows about it, there will be a dispute."
He Ningxin cursed softly: "You know you're afraid, but you still don't let go!"
Long Chen shook his head and said with a smile: "Anyway, if you want to file a complaint, if I didn't molest you, wouldn't I have gained a bad reputation in vain?"
As he said that, Long Chen hugged He Ningxin tightly with his left hand to prevent her from escaping. He quickly reached in with his right hand and did all the indecent things.
He Ningxin was struggling but also enjoying herself. She put on makeup and changed clothes when she went out, just to win Long Chen's favor.
But now that she has entered the East Palace, if she is caught, Di Yuwei will definitely punish her severely.
"Master Long, please stop, I beg you, if I am seen, I will be beaten to death."
He Ningxin begged softly.
Long Chen said with a smile: "If you say 'Husband, please spare my life', I will spare your life."
He Ning felt so ashamed and angry that she could only whisper: "Husband, please spare my life..."
Long Chen smiled and said: "I didn't hear it."
He Ningxin begged again in a low voice: "Good husband, please spare my family."
Long Chen then stopped and said with a smile: "But remember, I am your sister's husband."
He Ning felt extremely ashamed and cursed softly: "Shameless thief."
Long Chen smiled and said: "The princess is waiting. My good wife, you are not leading the way."
He Ningxin arranged her clothes, took a few deep breaths of cold air to recover from her flushed face, and then took Long Chen into the East Palace.
When he opened the door to the room, he saw Di Yuwei wearing a plain cheongsam sitting next to the stove with a pot of tea being boiled.
"Princess, Master Long is here."
