Because Long Yi had no time to govern the court, he hurriedly sent out troops for an expedition. There were almost no civil and military personnel for him in the court, and now he couldn't even find anyone to support him.
Sun Qin, the governor of Yushitai, was very eloquent. He was particularly enthusiastic in speaking these days. Today he was chattering for a long time. He had long been disliked. When he made a suggestion, he was dismissed and investigated.
It was Sun Qin who suggested that Zhou Xiaozhou should be dismissed from his post and investigated. In the end, Zhou Xiaozhou was fine and he was kicked off.
Zhou Xiaozhou suddenly straightened his back, his backstage was the toughest, what should he be afraid of!
Now that the war has started, others should start the war with him first. His character is never soft, and he raised his voice and said: "That Mr. Sun indeed raised a question worth thinking about. His virtue is not worthy of his place, his merits are not enough, but he is in a high position. The bad problems of the previous dynasty were the root cause of the people's desperation and unwillingness to help the country resist foreign enemies. The country was almost destroyed and must be taken seriously.
There must be many adults here who are the products of nepotism and must be investigated strictly. "
He is the most obvious product of nepotism, but he is being criticized instead?
This is so unreasonable!
As they looked at each other, another civil servant was signaled to come out and fight back.
"I was the second-ranked official in the imperial examination ten years ago, and now I am only a sixth-grade civil servant. I am willing to accompany Mr. Zhou to be severely investigated."
The person who came second in the palace examination ten years ago started out as a sixth-grade official at the lowest level. He is still only a sixth-grade official now. He is indeed very stable and is not afraid of investigation.
Someone who has been a fourth-grade official since he started out will definitely be able to withstand scrutiny.
Although people say that the starting price is the sixth grade, they are those who have passed the examination and there is nothing wrong with it.
Zhou Xiaozhou said calmly: "What position do I hold? What I have achieved is military merit. I can calculate it clearly, be dignified, and deserve it."
Those who are sage and enlightened have eyes as bright as a torch and can see clearly and cannot make any mistakes.
This gentleman was ranked second in the palace ten years ago, and should have received a sixth-grade official. You have made no progress so far, which means that you have not made any achievements. You can only make embroidered pillows for beautiful articles. How dare you say that your official position is stable?
Keeping people like you is a waste of people's fat and money..."
"Accurate."
As a civil servant, it is difficult to define merit. For the same thing, it is okay to say you are good or bad. Only if you have good connections and the right position on the mountain, it is easy to rise step by step.
Long Yi took advantage of the situation and waved his hand again, and the warrior in front of the palace dragged the second place out again.
"Unjustly accused... Unjustly accused..."
Long Yi needed to establish his prestige, yet he dared to be ordered to jump out. How could there be any injustice for the second place winner who couldn't see the situation so clearly?
There was silence for a moment.
No one dared to say anything.
As long as Zhou Xiaozhou says whatever he wants, Long Yi will do it right.
A proper joint doubles match.
The seemingly monolithic court will be torn apart as long as a small opening is made.
Everyone has to think about how to protect themselves from being pulled into the water.
"Zhou Ranking No. 2, you are responsible for pursuing this case. Those who do not match their moral integrity will be severely punished."
"My lord, I obey the order."
It’s hard to say whether virtue is incompatible or not. There is no clear boundary. You can decide it however you want. This power was quite powerful, equivalent to holding the power of life and death, which immediately made everyone in the dynasty shudder.
When it comes to investigation, you will definitely need to dig up all the money and check it, and your family property cannot be escaped. You need to carefully check whether your income is normal.
Who can withstand the investigation?
Zhou Xiaozhou originally didn't want to get into work so quickly, but others opened fire on him first, and he had no mercy once he took action, so he immediately led the leading guards to seal the residences of the two officials.
This also established the status of the leading guard, who did this kind of work, mainly confiscating homes.
Regardless of where he came from, whether he was a leading guard, a royal guard, or a member of the Yulin Army, he would not resist his second-in-command leader. Instead, he was very united and quickly got into work.
Sun Qin, the fifth-rank governor of Yushitai, can really find out some things.
It seems that Yan Guan has no real power, but in fact, this is not the case. He kills people with soft knives without showing blood, and with his sharp tongue, he can make people die. Impeach someone today and impeach someone tomorrow. If you want to suppress the matter, you have to give them benefits.
This guy had a pretty good life as a child, with many wives and concubines and many children.
The monthly salary of a fifth-rank official in the Wusheng Dynasty was about two hundred taels of silver, which was quite a good income. Since a high salary supports integrity, this guy's income was obviously far beyond this range.
Normal income cannot support such a big family at all, and it can also bring in some overt or covert business income, which is even more unclean...
A bureaucrat who has been hanging around in the court for more than ten or twenty years, if you look it up, you will definitely find that his butt is dirty, and more and more people will be implicated.
On the other hand, the second-place finisher was really clean and had no chance.
It was because he was clean that others forced him to appear against Zhou Xiaozhou.
If it's clean, let it go.
There are a lot of unclean things. Digging out radishes and bringing out the mud brings out more and more people.
But they are basically just low-ranking officials. Even a fifth-rank official like him cannot squeeze into the circle of senior officials.
Even if these petty officials were capable of corruption and taking advantage, there was nothing interesting enough for Zhou Xiaozhou. Naturally, they were doing official business and did not take any advantage.
Within a few days, more than a dozen officials were removed, and the investigation seemed to be a turmoil, but in fact it could only end here.
Higher-level officials are more cunning and will not easily leave clues for others to catch.
Zhou Xiaozhou divided the leading guards into small teams and asked them to investigate, while he himself was free.
Longtouwei is not considered a formal yamen. Even its office is only on the small school field next to Wuji Hall. A few tents are set up as an office space. It can only be regarded as King Wu Sheng's personal guard. It is only responsible to King Wu Sheng, and its authority exceeds that of all regular yamen.
"Master Zhou, you did a good job."
Long Ju walked over, followed by another general, "This is General Long Ting, let's get to know each other."
This Long Ting was the candidate recommended by the Royal Forest Army. He was considered one of the younger generations of geniuses in the royal family. He had already entered the ranks of the heavenly ranks at a young age. Some people wanted to reuse him and give him more opportunities.
There is actually not much difference between a kingdom and a large sect. If you want to obtain more resources, you must be in a high position to have more opportunities.
It is impossible for an ordinary disciple in the big sect to obtain many resources. He still needs to climb up step by step before he can get the resources poured out.
The sect is more pure, and they are all immortal cultivators, while the kingdom is more complicated, with all kinds of people, but the direction is the same, to obtain more resources for themselves.
