Time flies, and in a blink of an eye, it is the day when the dragon raises its head on February 2. The case of the Capital Iron Factory is almost finished. Today, Zai Chun summoned the senior officials of the Military Aircraft Department and several Iron Hat Kings of the Eight Banners to gather at the Yangxin Hall. Discuss together.
In the west compartment of the Yangxin Hall, under the plaque "It's hard for the king", Zai Chun is sitting on the throne. The top of the Qing Dynasty is covered with the top dignitaries of the Qing Dynasty. The area of the west compartment is not large, and many palaces have lined up to enter the Dongnuan Pavilion. !
The Yangxin Hall has not held a court meeting of this scale for a long time. The ministers knew that the matters to be discussed today were serious, so they all raised their spirits!
These people have been in the officialdom for many years. They knew that the atmosphere today was not right, so they did not dare to drink tea or water in the morning, and they did not dare to eat too much breakfast.
I made ginseng soup or bird's nest soup overnight in advance to replenish my energy before I have to attend the court meeting for more than ten hours today!
If you faint from hunger during the court meeting, or if you have to run to the toilet, it would be a disgrace to you!
Normally the emperor has a good temper, so this is a trivial matter, but if someone makes a mistake today, it will be bad!
Some elderly and frail people will hide some old ginseng beards in their sleeves, which can boost their spirits at critical times!
The atmosphere was indeed extremely depressing. Zai Chun had not said a word since he went to court at eight o'clock. The eunuchs stuffed the transcribed case briefings into the hands of the ministers one by one. After reading these official foxes, many of them had red eyes on their foreheads. Sweat!
They exchanged glances with each other, thinking to themselves that Your Majesty is planning to create a prison? It was just a murder case. Why did the case file go so deep?
Human trafficking, corruption, pornography, gambling and drugs... all the confessions are concentrated in the briefing. This is a very obvious signal!
Prince Li, Prince Zheng and others were so frightened that they were sweating profusely. They were waiting for this briefing. If His Majesty's briefing only contained the details of the murder case, it meant that the emperor wanted to suppress the case.
But now, all the dirt in the gutter has been stewed into a spoonful. This is a big case that will shake the world!
The more this time comes, the less people dare to speak. There is a dead silence in Wei Jun Nan, so quiet that you can hear a pin drop!
Da Sixi glanced at the emperor, and Zai Chun nodded slightly at him. Da Sixi quickly sang and shouted, "Have you read the files clearly? Sirs, do you have anything to say?"
"Do you want to say a few words, sir? That one..."
After shouting three times in a row, the courtiers below shrank their necks even more, looking like bastards!
Zai Chun's eyes swept over these people, Bao Jun, Li Hongzao, Weng Tonghe, Yinggui...Prince Dun, Prince Li, Prince Zheng, Prince Rui...
These dignitaries who used to show off their power in the past are now mute and refuse to even raise their heads!
Ahem... Zai Chun coughed twice, "What's wrong? Don't you all know how to read? Don't you even know how to read the case file?"
"I'm asking you? Do you have anything to say? Quan Qing... you are the Minister of the Ministry of Justice, Prince Yu... you are also on the job of the Capital Police Headquarters... won't you say a few words about this case?"
Zai Chun simply named him!
Prince Yu Benge and Quan Qing shivered. Although they were prepared, they almost sat on the ground in shock when it came to them.
Quan Qing was not a popular person. He had been the Minister of the Ministry of Justice for less than three years. His previous appointment was Miansen, a member of the clan, who had already passed away due to illness.
After taking charge of the Ministry of Punishment for three years, he has encountered a series of reforms. The Minister of Punishment is actually quite useless!
With a pop, Quan Qing knelt on the ground, "Your Majesty... my servant... my servant has been in charge of the Criminal Department for too short a time, less than three years. These cases... are really unclear!"
"The slave is incompetent, the slave is a waste... I have failed the emperor's love, the slave is guilty!"
have to! This guy is so happy that he directly said that his tenure was too short. The subtext is that I can't control the judicial system of the Qing Dynasty. Your Majesty, please don't force me!
The corner of Zai Chun's mouth trembled in anger: "What nonsense is this? You have been the Minister of the Ministry of Justice for three years and you don't know anything about it? Where should I put a dog? After three years, he must be able to smell it, right? You can't even have a dog." Not as good as anything?"
Quan Qing kowtowed loudly, his face turned pale with fear, "A slave is not as good as a dog, a slave cannot stand up to his master, a slave is not as good as a dog..."
Done! This is a direct admission that he is not as good as a dog, what else can he say? Zai Chun directly turned his attention to the true character of King Yu. King Yu knelt on the ground with a bitter look on his face and burst into tears, "Your Majesty... I have just been running the Capital Police Headquarters for more than a year. Everything is done on the fly, and I have the responsibility to supervise the disadvantages... …”
"I beg your Majesty to understand my slave's difficulties... The capital is so vast, and I have only more than 7,000 policemen under my command. The entire Shuntian Mansion is so big, it is simply not enough..."
"Fart! You don't have enough in Shuntian Mansion. Isn't one Qinghe Iron Works enough? You don't even know what the priorities are?"
"I'm asking you now, what should be done with the case! Who listens to your nonsense about insufficient manpower?"
"Ah? Oh...yes, yes...what should I do with the case? What should I do with the case? This case..." Prince Yu was dumbfounded at the sight, and he didn't have enough brain power to turn around.
In the end, he simply choked out a nonsense sentence: "What should be done, just do it? Do it according to the king's law..."
Sigh... There was a sound of regret among the ministers, thinking that King Yu really couldn't understand the form. How could he say this?
Zai Chun sneered, "Okay... okay, okay! What King Yu said is so wonderful. Follow the king's law... Did you all hear clearly?"
"Human trafficking, cigarette selling, murder for money, gambling, bullying... one by one, let's handle them according to the king's law!"
King Yu suddenly understood. It turned out that the emperor was not asking about how to handle the case. In fact, after talking for a long time, he was actually asking how big the case should be handled!
Oops... King Yu slapped his head, "Your Majesty... Your Majesty, please let me say one more thing... We can't do this in such a big way! Wouldn't this become a big prison?"
"That's not what I meant just now... I just said that if you kill someone, you must pay for your life. If the murderers are punished, the case will be closed!"
Prince Yu finally said something clear. Prince Li, Prince Zheng, Prince Rui and others behind him quickly walked out of the train. "Your Majesty! I'm waiting for my second opinion... It's better to kill the culprit instead of going to prison!"
Zai Chun had known for a long time that this group of people would say this: "Haha... don't build a big prison? When those unscrupulous people break the law, are they just waiting for this sentence?"
"As expected, they are all good slaves of yours! How dare you protect me at this time!"
Zai Chun stood up from the throne, walked among these powerful ministers, stared into their eyes, and asked one by one, "Don't want a prison? Why? Give me a reason..."
"Prince Li, Prince Rui, Prince Yu, Prince Zheng... Why are they all lowering their heads? Look up and answer my question!"
"Why hide!"
