The commander of the Jin Yiwei, Jiang Gu, who was wearing a crimson python suit, looked like a killing god, entering the Zhongji Hall with dragon and tiger steps and a frightening momentum.

Since the death of Mao Xiang, the first commander of Jinyiwei, who was regarded by Zhu Yuanzhang as an accomplice of Hu Weiyong because of his involvement with Hu Weiyong, Jiang Qi completely took over Jinyiwei and became the second commander.

Speaking of Mao Xiang's ending, it is quite disappointing.

It was because of his investigation of Hu Weiyong that he implicated Yi Gong and 20 Marquises, who were the founding heroes of the People's Republic of China, and were imprisoned, sentenced to death, exiled to Guizhou, and exiled tens of thousands of people. Almost half of the civil servants in the DPRK and China were lost.

At that time, Mao Xiang's reputation could make everyone in the Ming Dynasty cry.

But it is precisely because of this that in the end, Zhu Yuanzhang, in order to calm the panic in the court and restart a stable political period, Mao Xiang probably fully felt the experience of Bird's End and Gongzang, and the emperor sacrificed his life for those few Years of blood flowed into a river to draw a sentence.

Jiang Yu, who entered the Zhongji Hall, glanced at the civil servants on the left with hazy eyes.

Since he took over Jinyiwei after the 23rd year of Hongwu, not many people died in the court in the past two years, which allowed him to not worry about whether he would end up like his predecessor.

At this moment, Jiang Wei just wanted to attract a few blind and eggless civil servants because of his words outside the palace, and then he would follow the trend and teach these civil servants how to respect the monarch for his grandson. .

Yesterday, His Majesty, the Prince, and the Grandson were not in Yingtian City. It was he who ordered the more than a thousand famous scholars to be imprisoned in the Jinyiwei Prison after assessing the situation.

His Majesty has no decree to let him go, and neither does the prince or grandson.

This confirmed Jiang Wei's suspicion.

My decision yesterday was not wrong, so today the grandson in the court will not give in to these civil servants either.

As a result, Jiang Wei's gaze became more unscrupulous and provocative, scanning from the civil servants at the palace gate to the six ministers and the young ministers of the five temples at the front.

Wherever he looked, everyone lowered their heads in fear.

After that, Jiang Wei came forward and bowed to pay homage to Zhu Yunxi who was sitting on the steps of his Majesty.

Zhu Yunxi glanced at Jiang Yu with unclear eyes, who looked like Cao Cao when he entered the court in the past. He coughed slightly and looked at the founding father with a vague look.

Chang Sheng immediately left his duties and spoke in a deep voice: "Your Highness, I impeach the commander of the Jinyi Guards Jiang Gu. He entered the court without clear permission and did not show courtesy first. He is suspected of overstepping his bounds and shall be severely punished."

Then, Zhu Yunxi looked at Jiang Yu, who was already standing in front of him.

He smiled slightly: "I think, the commander must have something important to report to the court. Although the circumstances are excusable, the national laws and etiquette do not allow it, and he will be fined for one year as punishment."

Jiang Wei waved his robe, knelt on the ground, and raised his arms: "I accept the order and thank you."

Standing at the front of the civil service train, Zhan Hui, the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel and the Censor of the Zuodu of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth twice after hearing this.

Rujun, the Minister of War, held the wat board in his hands, and said in a low voice: "I am a military commander by nature, and I have a thick skin. The founding father went out to impeach, and His Highness punished him, but even the procuratorate can't find fault. Your Highness This requires the use of Jin Yiwei..."

At the end, Ru Ru couldn't help but sigh.

Zhan Hui shook his head, nodded again, and finally closed his eyes silently.

It's none of your business today!

Elders always have a broad vision and can see further, so they will become elders.

But more people don't have a long-term vision.

Therefore, when they saw Taisun punishing the Jinyiwei commander Jiang Gu with a salary, but Jiang Gu obediently accepted the order and thanked him, they thought that Taisun had already subdued Jinyiwei's killing talent.

Although they don't like the Jin Yiwei, they also don't like a king who can command the Jin Yiwei like an arm.

But no one dared to say it.

Jiang Wei, who was kneeling on the gold bricks, raised his head and said: "To report to the great grandson, the Jin Yiwei arrested and imprisoned thousands of people who gathered for a fight in Yingtian City yesterday. Today I heard that the chief criminal committed suicide in the Yingtian Mansion. I would like to ask your highness to send the Taisun Jiao. Order Ying Tianfu to hand over the chief criminal to Jinyiwei."

Zhu Yunxi smiled silently.

The commander of the Jin Yiwei in front of him was very sensible and insightful, and he could clearly see what he wanted.

Zhu Yunxi looked blankly at Zhan Hui, who was pretending to be dead with his eyes closed, and said softly: "The Metropolitan Procuratorate, can what the Jin Yiwei said follow the law?"

Ru Ruan, who was standing next to Zhan Hui with her hands in her sleeves, lowered her head involuntarily and let out a chuckle that could only be heard by the old man Zhan next to her.

Zhan Hui sighed in his heart. He didn't hide away after all, and he managed to escape when the incident came.

The first civil servant in the Ming Dynasty, who was also the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel and the Censor of Zuodu of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, had to open his eyes and look at the imperial grandson above, and then at the commander of the Jinyi Guard kneeling beside him. Jiang Wei.

Obviously the Jin Yiwei could ignore the rules and rush directly into Yingtian Mansion to take that Liu Jingxing back to Jin Yiwei's prison. But it happened that the killer went to court today. He first intimidated some civil servants and then asked the grandson to report him according to the rules.

Involuntarily, Zhan Hui looked back at the emperor's grandson on the steps again.

He felt that this matter was most likely promoted by Taisun. The reason why Jiang Yu obeyed the rules today was also because of Taisun's request.

Is it to force yourself to take sides?

This idea just came up, Zhan Hui immediately crossed it out in his mind.

Taisun is not willing to force himself to take sides.

Test the civil and military affairs of the court?

Such an idea suddenly popped into Zhan Hui's mind, and then he couldn't help but complete the reasons for this idea.

At the beginning of the day, Taisun consulted the generals for their opinions, then reprimanded the Ministry of Punishment and Dali Temple, and then ransacked Liu Sanwu. Now, Jin Yiwei appeared and wanted to speak for himself again.

This is obviously to see how many people in this Zhongji Palace have different intentions.

"To report to my great grandson, the Metropolitan Procuratorate conducted an investigation in accordance with the law. The Jinyi Guards have not prohibited trials and sentencing. Today, more than a thousand people involved in private fights are arrested, which is far more serious than the first offender. The first offender should be handed over to the Jinyi Guards by the Yingtian Mansion."

So, after thinking clearly, Zhan Hui said these words in a deep voice.

Regarding the same detail, he, Zhan Hui, did not repeatedly mention what kind of scholars those people were yesterday like his current colleagues in the civil service, but just like Jiang Wei, he called them brawlers.

Immediately, Zhu Yunxi finally leaned on the armchair again: "What do you think?"

Ru Ru, the Minister of the Ministry of War, who was still lowering his head and laughing at Zhan Hui, immediately became the first to bow and clasp his fists: "I second the proposal."

Afterwards, more and more civil servants who had never expressed their feelings followed closely and expressed their support.

"In this case, let Jinyiwei go to Yingtian to mention people."

Zhu Yunxi said slowly, glancing blankly at Liu Sanwu, who had been squeezed by him earlier.

I saw that the other party did not exceed my expectations. He once again held the wat tablet in his hand and said loudly: "To my great grandson, Jin Yiwei is the Imperial Guards' Office, not the Criminal Department, not Dali Temple, not the Metropolitan Procuratorate, not Yingtian Mansion." It is the local government office of Yingtian, and any private fights that occur in Yingtian City should be handled by the Yingtian Mansion."

"presumptuous!"

Zhu Yunxi shouted coldly.

Under the puzzled gazes of Liu Sanwu and many officials.

Zhu Yunxi's face turned cold for a moment: "Liu Sanwu, what exactly do you want to do!"

In Zhongji Hall, the atmosphere became solemn once again.

Zhu Yunxi said in a cold voice: "You are not a human being in the middle school. Today, you have repeatedly intervened in the affairs of the court. Do you feel that the departments and bureaus above the court are not here? You don't think about your own duties and keep admonishing me. You have to sit alone here." Get the chair!"

As he spoke, Zhu Yunxi stood up for the second time, stepped aside, and slapped the back of the chair violently.

Liu Sanwu immediately knelt down.

"I don't dare, old minister."

Zhu Yunxi snorted coldly and passed by the civil and military officials in the hall: "Do you also want to come up and sit down?"

There was a crash, and suddenly there was a lot of kneeling sounds from the Zhongji Hall.

Countless civil and military officials knelt on the ground one after another, so much so that those officials outside Zhongji Hall who couldn't tell the difference had no choice but to kneel down.

"I don't dare to wait for death."

Zhu Yunxi let out a long sigh, which was enough for the officials in the palace to hear.

Then, he said slowly: "Yesterday's private fight in front of the newspaper office was a violation of the law. Thousands of people gathered together and acted daringly. The Jinyi Guards should be severely punished."

Jiang Wei raised the corner of his mouth slightly, sneered, and then said loudly: "Jin Yiwei takes orders!"

The sound shocked Liu Sanwu who was beside him and became short of breath.

Zhu Yunxi continued to speak in a cold voice: "I thought that in the Ming Dynasty, each ministry would perform its own duties, and the six ministries would still be less likely to give advice on matters that have nothing to do with themselves."

As soon as this statement came out, the civil and military officials in the court began to discuss it secretly.

This is to take away the inconspicuous but extremely important power from the hands of those present.

Each ministry is dedicated to its own duties, and the few remonstrances have nothing to do with one's own affairs.

"Shao" is just a polite term, just to save the face of those present.

The real voice-over is that in the future, officials of the Ming Dynasty will no longer be allowed to interfere in the affairs of other yamen or places except their own yamen or local affairs.

Some people immediately wanted to stand up and remonstrate, but they thought of the eerie laughter of Jiang Yu, the commander of the Jinyiwei just now, and Liu Sanwu, a member of Zhongshushe who was repeatedly reprimanded by the emperor's grandson.

Even those who are thoughtful do not dare to stand up at this time.

The emperor's grandson obviously took advantage of Liu Sanwu's performance in the court today to give everyone present a counterattack.

This is a warning.

However, just when everyone thought that today's events could finally end.

Zhu Yunxi spoke again: "The decree was issued because of the incompetence of Yingtian Prefecture, which caused turmoil in the capital and thousands of people fighting privately. Yingtian Prefecture demoted him to Qiantang County Magistrate, and Shangyuan County Magistrate demoted him to Qiantang County Magistrate."

Although there were some unusual movements in the palace and the dealings with Yingtian Mansion and Shangyuan County, they were also within the expectations of most people.

I just didn't expect the punishment to come so quickly.

But.

The voice of the emperor's grandson reached the ears of civil and military officials again and again.

"Liu Sanwu, a member of Zhongshushe, repeatedly made arrogant comments about other ministry affairs. He was thinking of taking charge of the current examination. He was fined three years' salary and five hundred catties of copper as punishment."

At the same moment, a few words popped up in my mind.

Retribution comes too soon!

Finally, at this time, Sun Gou'er, the steward of the inner palace, began to shout to withdraw from the court.

After a while, the sound of Taisun's leaving footsteps was heard on the steps.

It was only at this moment that all the civil and military officials in the palace dared to slowly raise their heads and stand up. They were restless and with their own concerns, exited the Zhongji Palace.

Just when everyone is reviewing today's situation.

However, the internal official Yutian appeared in front of the officials.

This is the personal servant of the emperor's grandson, and all the officials recognize him these days.

Liu Sanwu, who was severely slapped in the face by Yutian last time and was reprimanded and fined copper by his grandson today, couldn't help but snorted after seeing Yutian.

Yutian glanced at Liu Sanwu coldly, then smiled and walked across the crowd to Jie Jin, who had done nothing today.

In full view of everyone, the little eunuch bowed to the end.

"Bachelor Jie, my grandson has invited me to speak in the side hall."

Jie Jin was stunned for a moment, glanced at his colleagues around him blankly, arched his hands and followed Yutian away from the crowd.

Wait until the two of them leave.

There was a commotion in the crowd.

Someone suddenly woke up: "It turns out that Taisun's handiwork fell here today!"

There are also people who are ignorant and say at a loss: "How generous? Isn't it..."

As he spoke, the man raised his eyebrows at the dark-faced Liu Sanwu not far away.

Obviously, this person is not a staunch disciple of Neo-Confucianism, nor is he Liu Sanwu and his group.

Zhan Hui, who was carried out today, and Ru Ru, the minister of the Ministry of War, walked behind the two people who were discussing.

Zhan Hui said calmly: "Walking in Wenhua Hall."

The two men immediately bowed: "Master Shangshu."

Before the two of them even raised their heads, they saw Zhan Hui and Ru Ru leaving far away from the palace.

The two of them couldn't help but look at each other. The official who had not reacted at first, his eyes lit up immediately, and he pulled his companion and whispered: "If you don't walk from now on, you won't be able to become a member of the Sixth Army?"

The companion nodded, but shook his head hesitantly: "Maybe, but we think that the order may not be changed in the future."

As a result, the eyes of those who reacted were as wide as bull's eyes.

"It won't be enough!"

In the side hall, Zhu Yunxi looked at Jie Jin who was called back and shook his head: "We don't think so, but if the outside world really thinks so, maybe your situation will be improved in the future."

Jie Jin blinked and stared at Zhu Yunxi who was explaining for a long time, and then he breathed a sigh of relief.

"I am a humble minister, but if I go to the Wenhua Palace, I will be above the six tribes. I will be frightened and should ask for my resignation and return to my hometown."

Zhu Yunxi smiled silently and did not give any more explanation about the current walking in Wenhua Palace.

He just said softly: "Today can only be regarded as a knock on the mountain to shock the tiger. You need to have enough time to promote the unity of knowledge and action. I think after today, those people will never cause trouble for no reason again."

Xie Jin nodded and leaned over to pour tea for his grandson.

Before the fresh tea brewed by the two of them had lost its flavor, Sun Cheng, the current Deputy Qianhu of the Jinyi Guards, rushed in from outside the palace.

Arriving in front of Zhu Yunxi, Sun Cheng glanced at Xie Jin who was eating fried ice cream.

Then he whispered: "Third Master, what is being spread from Jinyiwei is that thousands of people fought privately in front of the newspaper office yesterday, which is not allowed by the law and should be severely punished. From today on, ten people will be punished with ten sticks each on White Tiger every day. On the street.”

After hearing this, Zhu Yunxi was just stunned, and then he looked at Xie Jin in front of him and laughed silently.

"Look, did we say anything wrong?"
