Faced with Zhang Yuhang's aggressiveness at this moment, Lin Shaowen, who clearly felt that the situation seemed to have deviated from the expected track, moved his fingers unconsciously.
The situation he least expected to see happened.
Zhang Yuhang then made a distressed look and said sadly: "Your Majesty, such a person with ulterior motives can actually become the imperial censor of our great Zhou Dynasty. It is conceivable that he has done many shady things behind his back. How many loyal and kind people have become depressed and frustrated because of this, and it is difficult to complain about their grievances and express their sufferings."
"For this reason, I request a thorough investigation of the entire Yushitai. These people were originally supposed to be His Majesty's eyes and ears, supervising all officials and patrolling the world for His Majesty. But now the people of the world are worried and the smoke continues. In the final analysis, these people are not as.
If corrupt officials are allowed to run rampant and the people are exhausted, there is no way to survive and they have no choice but to rebel. For this alone, Yushitai cannot escape the blame. "
Zhang Yuhang said and took out the memorial he had prepared long ago from his sleeve again. It showed the distribution of the forces in Kyoto.
Their division of power, personnel structure, and even the business they engage in.
Secret prostitution, brothels, brothels, dental shops, pawn shops, and restaurants are all involved in almost all industries.
And those who can appear here are almost always alive.
But just because these people have the support of these officials, they have not been punished for their wanton behavior for so many years.
The perpetrators are free and contented.
Only the people who suffered this misfortune for no reason could swallow their anger and have no way to complain.
"What is recorded here is evidence of the evil deeds of the forces below. There are even rumors among the people that the world is under the control of the imperial court during the day, and once midnight is over, it is their world.
In the eyes of the people, their prestige even exceeds that of the imperial court. Your Majesty, such evil behavior cannot be allowed to go unchecked. If things continue like this, will this Kyoto still be the Kyoto of our Great Zhou Dynasty? "
At this moment, what Zhang Yuhang said was certainly a bit exaggerated, but at this point, who would care about it.
Especially after hearing these things, King Zhou showed anger for the first time on his face and shouted: "What a shame."
"This world belongs to Zhou Dynasty, and it belongs to me.
How can we allow such young people to act wantonly? It is really unreasonable. "
"Zhang Yuhang listens to the order!"
He took a step forward: "I'm here."
King Zhou quickly said: "I order you to investigate the case thoroughly. Any forces that do not belong to the imperial court can be killed first and then reported. I have only one request.
Let the laws of the Great Zhou Dynasty become something imprinted in the bones of every people in the capital of the Great Zhou Dynasty. Those who violate it will be corrected, and those who violate it will die. "
King Zhou's attitude was beyond everyone's expectation.
These underground forces in Kyoto do exist, but they have always had their own bottom line. Although they will inevitably get involved in some lawsuits and murders, they are by no means as unpardonable as Zhang Yuhang said.
But now it was obvious that Zhang Yuhang not only exaggerated what they had done, but also wanted to take advantage of these people.
Last time, Zhao Yueming's fellow only killed a few people in a targeted manner, but now, according to what the governor meant, he was going to really go on a killing spree.
They originally thought that Zhang Yuhang's target was those young masters from aristocratic families and wanted to gain authority from them, but they didn't expect that this man had such a big appetite.
He actually wants to wipe out all these underworld forces.
Now looking at King Zhou's attitude, it's self-evident what his intentions are.
At this moment, Xue Yi, who seemed to feel that he had room to perform, stood up again and admonished King Zhou: "Your Majesty, you can't do it."
"Not to mention whether there are so many evil things in the capital, under the emperor's feet. Even if there are, Jing Zhaoyin should be responsible for the investigation. If not, the Ministry of Punishment can do it for him. No matter what, it is not the turn of the prison. Tiansi took action, this move is unreasonable, I hope Your Majesty will think twice."
In any case, this matter must not be left to Zhang Yuhang and Jian Tiansi. Judging from his attitude and the evidence collected, it can be seen that he has been sharpening his sword for a long time.
If it really depends on his temperament, most of these people will probably be caught and captured. Even if the law does not punish everyone in the end and no one can do anything to them as members of aristocratic families, the industries that have always made money for them will be completely disintegrated.
After losing these long-skilled veterans, the time, energy and even money required to rebuild this power are absolutely unacceptable to them.
But as soon as he finished this remonstrance, Zhang Yuhang scolded him again: "You are so presumptuous, His Majesty has already opened his mouth, and you dare to persuade His Majesty to take back your life. Do you think you are wiser than His Majesty?
Shameless old thief, you have lived in this world in vain. You have never achieved success in your life and can only shake your lips!
As someone who respects the family, don't you know that there are countless people in the world who are willing to eat your flesh, how dare you spare your life here!
A common man? A thief with a gray beard? He can only hide in hiding and hide his face. How dare he make trouble in front of His Majesty!
A snake with a broken back still dares to bark on the top of the Golden Palace. I have never seen such a shameless person!"
Everyone in the main hall, including King Zhou, was stunned by Zhang Yuhang's words.
All the previous words and all the accusations are weak in front of these few sentences.
For a censor, the greatest capital is the ability to speak out unscrupulously, and he can even use this as a capital to earn a reputation among officials as someone who is not afraid of the powerful and speaks uprightly.
But now, what did Zhang Yuhang say?
Even if you kill people and punish your heart, you don’t dare to kill your heart like this.
King Zhou almost laughed in his heart, but he still said in a low voice: "I have made up my mind on this matter. As for Xue Yushi, it will not be like what you said. It is settled like this. You will be responsible for the illegal activities in Kyoto this time." The purge of power.
We must ensure that the people of the Great Zhou Dynasty are no longer harmed by these people. The crimes committed in the past will be severely punished after verification. "
Zhang Yuhang bowed and said: "I respectfully obey the imperial edict."
Then he glanced at the people from the aristocratic families beside him who wanted to cut themselves into pieces at this moment, continued to look at King Zhou, and asked for instructions: "Your Majesty, I have one more thing, I don't know whether I should say it or not."
"Will!"
Having reached this point, King Zhou was also curious about what else Zhang Yuhang wanted to do.
"This is the case of Lin Jianzhong, the son of Lin Shaowen, the Minister of Rites. According to the law, he should be punished by death. He was beheaded in the vegetable market. However, I saw that many people in the hall did not seem to agree with this resolution. Even the Minister of Punishments was hesitant.
The next steps to deal with those lawless people will inevitably involve many high-ranking officials and nobles who cannot afford to offend. I really can't make up my mind on how to deal with these people. I would like to ask Your Majesty to make it clear! "
As soon as these words came out, everyone in the hall had different thoughts.
Zhang Yuhang's words were not just asking for instructions, they were simply inviting Shang Fang's sword to kill without mercy. But at this time, the sword was no longer aimed at ordinary people, but aimed directly at people from aristocratic families like them.
He was full of murderous intent, and everyone was surprised.
