Zhu Han personally presided over the public trial for three consecutive days. During this period, thirty-three officials were beheaded.
It can be said that the entire Yanjing officialdom is rotten to the core.
During this period, Liangxiu Qingfeng was not truly wronged.
only……
Very few.
To say it is rare is an understatement.
This is because Zhu Han is presiding over the trial of these crimes, so only the evil leaders are being investigated, and there is no serious implication.
If it were Lao Zhu, not only tens of thousands of people would be implicated, but it would all be due to Lao Zhu's great kindness.
After these three days of madness, the people of Yanjing finally calmed down.
The number of people watching the public trial was also much lower than during the peak period.
However, the number of people who came to watch the public trial was still very impressive.
Zhu Han was quite satisfied with one thing. Finally, these people did not start cheering long live as soon as they got excited like before.
Therefore, after the trial ended on the third day, Zhu Han called Liu Song over for tea.
Furthermore, he personally served tea to Liu Song: "Master Liu has been working hard recently. If Master Liu hadn't been so absorbed in thinking, this public trial would never have gone so smoothly."
Liu Song, however, did not show any respect at all, but said calmly: "I am just doing my duty, and I don't deserve such praise from the prince."
"Your Majesty, I still have a lot of things to deal with. If your Majesty doesn't have anything important to do, please take your leave."
In the past, Xu Da didn't understand Liu Song's personality, so he might have become angry and wanted to deal with Liu Song.
Zhu Han was the prince of the Ming Dynasty. No matter how good-tempered he was, Liu Song, a courtier, could not be so scornful.
But now, Xu Da is just holding tea and watching the fun leisurely.
I usually see Zhu Han training others like his third grandson, but it is a rare opportunity to see Zhu Han being helpless to someone, which is quite interesting.
The smile on Zhu Han's face was a little stiff.
No wonder in real history, Liu Song was directly sent home to farm by Lao Zhu.
I also understand why those wise kings in history, no matter how foolish they are, always keep a few people around them who are good at flattering others.
No matter how strong your abilities are, no matter how talented you are, if you don't speak well, it's naturally not easy for people to like you.
From this we can see that there is a reason why Li Shimin could become an emperor throughout the ages.
When a person has absolute rights, it is difficult for most people to restrain their desires.
It is really valuable to have a person like Wei Zheng by his side, whose loyal words are always harsh to the ears.
Anyway, Zhu Han felt that just after saying these few words to Liu Song, he already couldn't stand this guy.
The person in front of you is also the founder of the Ming Dynasty after all. Can you be more respectful?
But after all, Zhu Han is not such a superficial person. He knows that if a country wants to develop, it must have people who are sincere and unafraid of power.
In the current situation in Yanjing, if only someone with a more sophisticated attitude could come over.
What he needs to do must be at least three times more.
And looking at his attitude, has Liu Song forgotten that he was the one who took the initiative to block the gun for him?
Otherwise, those few long live shouts would be enough to kill him.
However, for the sake of Liu Song's ability to do things, Prince Zhu decided not to argue with this guy.
He chuckled twice and said: "Since I asked Mr. Liu to come here, of course I have something important to discuss with Mr. Liu."
"Please give me your advice, Your Majesty."
Zhu Han felt an inexplicable pain in his balls.
how to say?
It's like some people's voices don't sound very nice.
But he deliberately pinched his throat and pretended to have a weak voice.
It can no longer be fake.
But what can Zhu Han do? He chooses people by himself, and he chooses them with tears in his eyes...
Ahem.
Anyway, ability...ability is the most important thing.
Suppressing the depression in his heart, Zhu Han laughed and said: "Actually, it's nothing. I hope that Mr. Liu can continue to preside over the public trial. As you know, I am very busy..."
At the beginning, Liu Song didn't realize what Zhu Han was going to say.
When Zhu Han was halfway through speaking, Liu Song came to his senses.
Liu Song's face suddenly turned green when he thought of the previous scene where all the people cheered long live.
Without thinking, he refused directly: "Absolutely impossible!"
…
Zhu Han swallowed back the second half of his words and looked at Liu Song in confusion.
what's the situation?
Is this old brother Liu Song crazy?
Although he spoke to Liu Song in a negotiating tone.
But this is the same as the leaders of later generations talking to their own subordinates.
No matter how dark-hearted the leader is, he will obviously let his subordinates take the blame or do any dirty work.
I wish I could cut this bullshit leader into 17 or 18 pieces, put them in a rocket, and launch him directly into the sun, completely wiping him out.
On the surface, you have to laugh along, right?
No matter how upright you are, you should at least pretend to be extremely embarrassed when faced with the leader's apparent concern and respect.
After some hesitation, do you want to refuse the leader with a more euphemistic reason?
How can anyone be so confident and confident in rejecting the leader's "good intentions"?
Xu Da, who was drinking tea, almost couldn't hold it back and spit out the tea in his mouth.
He quickly turned his head away, suppressing his laughter with great difficulty.
Green veins appeared on Zhu Han's forehead, and he forced a smile and said: "I am a little confused as to what Mr. Liu means by these words. If what I remember is correct..."
"I would like to advise Your Majesty that the original purpose of bringing Lord Liu here is to preside over the public trial."
"Master Liu, are you not even willing to do your own job?"
If it had been anyone else, being questioned like this by a prince, even if he was standing upright, he would probably feel a little guilty.
Liu Song was different, he said confidently: "The prince also saw the previous scene."
"The common people have suffered from these corrupt officials for a long time. Every time these corrupt officials are dealt with, the common people will cheer, and there will even be some..." He hesitated and then added.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Treasonous and unjust words."
"A humble minister is a minister after all. I cannot bear these words and I dare not bear them."
"So, I can only ask the prince to continue to preside over the public trial and bring peace to the people."
Zhu Han stood up, pretending to be angry and sneered: "Okay, okay! You Liu Song are really loyal to my name."
There was so much sarcasm in these words that it was impossible for Liu Song not to hear it.
But compared to being shouted "long live" by those people.
Liu Song thought this bit of ridicule was acceptable.
Zhu Han looked at him condescendingly: "You are a minister, am I not a minister?"
"You can't bear it, how can I, the king, be able to bear it?"
"As a subject, I leave all these dangerous matters to the king, while I go aside and do the easiest thing."
"Liu Song..." Zhu Han's eyes were like lightning, and he said word by word: "Is this your loyalty to my Ming Dynasty?"
When Liu Song heard this, he immediately felt as if he had been struck by lightning: "This... this..."
Xu Da, who was watching the excitement from the side, couldn't help but roll his eyes.
Shameless, absolutely shameless.
During this time, it was Liu Song who was obviously doing the hard work.
He saw with his own eyes that Liu Song got up to work before dawn every day and would not go to bed until midnight.
The trial is not as simple as it seems on the surface. In order to find evidence, Liu Song often even had to go there in person.
And what about Zhu Han?
All I have to do is go to the public trial meeting in the morning to report.
Then he sat under the pavilion to enjoy the coolness and ate the fruits, pears and peaches brought by his servants.
He is not required to do almost any work.
Li Yunxi can investigate those who have committed corruption and falsified accounts faster than dozens of accountants combined.
All other cases were reviewed by Liu Song on his behalf.
The only thing Zhu Han had to do was to make the final decision and shout a decision.
During this period of time, in addition to getting a little tan, Zhu Han even gained some weight due to sitting for a long time.
Under such circumstances, this kid can still confidently say that what he does is hard?
Anyway, Xu Da has never seen a more shameless person in his life.
Xu Da only considered the physical fatigue of normal people.
But for people like Liu Song, he doesn't think about whether the work he does is hard or tiring.
What he was thinking about, Zhu Han was indeed under more pressure than he was.
As a minister of the Ming Dynasty, it seems a bit unkind to throw this kind of pressure on Zhu Han, His Royal Highness.
Little did she know that by thinking this way, she was playing into Zhu Han's hands.
Zhu Han has long seen through honest people like Liu Song. They can only see the hard work of others, but they can't see their own hard work at all.
As long as there is another person...
Well, if it were a person who was not so upright, how could Zhu Han need such a small trick?
When a prince's status is suppressed, the other party must obey whether he obeys or not.
Zhu Han didn't even need to waste any words, Liu Song figured it out on his own.
After the initial surprise, Liu Song let out a sigh of relief.
He stood up and bowed deeply to Zhu Han: "What the prince said is that the subordinate only thinks about himself and does not think about the huge pressure that the prince is also under."
"This is a matter that belongs to me, but I dare not take on the important responsibility just because of a trivial title, and put all the responsibilities on the prince."
"It's true..." Liu Song said and sighed: "I have lost my duty as a minister."
"Since the prince has a destiny, starting from tomorrow, the ministers will naturally shoulder their responsibilities. Please rest assured, the prince."
Xu Daren was dumbfounded. He blinked in disbelief and rubbed his ears hard at the same time.
He felt that he either heard wrongly or saw wrongly.
It shouldn't be. This Liu Song is definitely a talent, and he is extremely shrewd during the review process.
None of those corrupt and corrupt officials can escape his eyes.
Even if those people tried their best to make excuses, Liu Song could see through them at a glance.
But why does this guy act like he has a brain problem in front of Zhu Han? Just fool him.
"Very good!" Zhu Han nodded with satisfaction.
Showing the style of those leaders of later generations: "Having the courage to do things and taking on responsibilities is the magnanimity that I, the officials of the Ming Dynasty, should have."
After praising Liu Song, Zhu Han looked serious: "But Mr. Liu, you don't have to worry too much."
"The reason why I am entrusting this task to you now is naturally because such a thing will not happen."
"Mr. Liu, you have been immersed in reviewing the case recently, so you may not know much about it."
"However, after several days of interrogation, the people of Yanjing are still not as fanatical as before."
"Therefore, it is no longer possible for us to just cheer for you like we did before. Mr. Liu, you can now preside over the public trial without any situation that would make it difficult for you to step down."
"That's it!" Liu Song nodded: "If that's the case, then Wei Chen will have no problem."
After Liu Song said this, the room suddenly became quiet.
"Is it over?" After a long time, Zhu Han asked curiously.
Liu Song blinked in confusion and looked at Zhu Han with the same confused eyes, as if he didn't understand why His Royal Highness asked him this.
After thinking for a while, he asked in confusion: "Your Majesty needs me to report to you on the progress of the work I have on hand."
…
Zhu Han was speechless. After all, we have drawn such a big cake for you. Can you kill me if you give me more reaction?
Even if you don't pretend to be grateful, you should still be a little excited.
"It's okay. If Mr. Liu has anything to do, you can go ahead."
After hearing Zhu Han's words, Liu Song stood up without saying a word and slightly cupped his hands towards Zhu Han: "In that case, I'll take my leave."
After saying that, he turned around and walked away.
Zhu Han was left alone, messy in the wind.
Liu Song had just stepped out of the room when he heard Xu Da's irrepressible and unrestrained voice: "Hahahahaha, I can't do it anymore, it really made me laugh to death."
Xu Da banged the table desperately, as if this was the only way he could control his laughter.
Zhu Han turned to Xu Da angrily: "Brother Xu, it doesn't matter if you laugh, don't smash my table."
I don't know which part of Xu Da's laughter was touched by these words, and the guy laughed even crazier.
Of course, the shots on the table are even more powerful.
Although Xu Da's strength is certainly not as powerful as that of Zhao Da, it is not comparable to ordinary people.
Just after hearing Kacha's sound, the coffee table next to the chair split into two halves.
The laughter stopped abruptly.
Zhu Han said angrily: "Brother Xu, when I told you not to break the table, it was just an exaggeration. You won't really smash a table to prove that what I said is correct, right?"
Well, when Zhu Han said this, Xu Da, who had just stopped laughing, laughed even harder.
And it was twitching one after another, as if it was possible for someone to lose their breath and die.
Zhu Han didn't dare to speak any more casually. God knows if he said anything wrong again, which would cause General Xu to burst into laughter again.
He was not worried about the table, but he was worried that General Xu would really laugh out loud.
If this was the case, Zhu Yuanzhang would not let him go first.
It wasn't until he had laughed enough that Xu Da rolled his eyes and said, "You guys are really cheating people to death without paying for their lives. This kid Liu Song was almost crippled by you."
Zhu Han chuckled: "Brother Xu, you don't understand. I am a legendary pua."
"What the hell do you love, what is this?" Xu Da naturally didn't understand the vocabulary of later generations.
