The alarm clock made in Nanyang is on time. It will announce the dawn on time when the sky is dim and bright.
Qi Yu quickly got up, washed up, and had breakfast. After putting down the dishes, he took Huang Fei and other confidants out and went out.
There are two things to do today, so we must seize the time.
The so-called two things are: one is to go to the official department to report on work, and the other is to kill a few people according to the plan.
Qi Yu thought for a while and decided to finish the complicated things first, and then deal with the simple ones. So, he rushed to the capital hall of the Ministry of officials as soon as possible.
The so-called work report is actually to report all the official achievements in recent years as a basis for one's future official examination.
However, no matter how you look at it, this rule seems a bit funny when it comes to Qi Yu.
As for his current great achievements, it can be said that everyone knows about it. Not only the Chinese people know it very well, but also foreigners can detail it clearly like countless treasures. With his achievements like this, is it necessary to give a report on his work?
Unless the corpse of an official from the Ministry of Personnel is on top, he has never paid attention to current affairs in recent years.
After a long report, the process was finally completed. Just as the waiter was about to offer the tea set, Qi Yu waved his hand and left in a hurry.
Next stop, the vegetable market.
Qi Dalang didn't come here to buy vegetables or rice. Although he didn't have many chores, he wasn't so busy that he was obsessed with food and drink. The main purpose of his trip was to jail and kill people.
To be more precise, it should be the massacre of some foreigners.
As early as last night, Qi Yu had secretly met with his friend Meng Jiming and asked him to extract the foreign prisoners held in the dungeon of Dali Temple.
Regarding this matter, Lao Meng, who was the minister of Dali Temple at the time, nodded and agreed without even thinking about it.
These prisoners of war have been held for a long time and should have been sentenced long ago. However, since the Holy Emperor has not returned from his foreign tour, he can only be temporarily detained in prison until he comes to court.
Yes, good things like promoting our country's prestige are naturally left to the emperor. This kind of operation can not only demonstrate the domineering spirit of my emperor, but also intimidate the disloyal people from all over the world.
Su Liu also agreed with this method of disposal. The emperor's image was damaged due to his failure in conquering Korea. If he used this to correct his name, it would be a good way to make up for the situation.
Qi Yu never cared about favorable favors, so he traveled thousands of miles to escort these enemy chiefs to the capital. He never thought that he would attract criticism.
The civil servants in the court unexpectedly showed the desire to influence the stubborn people. They said that if people from far away are dissatisfied, then they should cultivate their virtues and come here. How can they deliberately increase hatred?
Knowing when you have gone astray, you will find your way back to where you are. This is the broadmindedness that a great country should have.
It can be seen that the civil officials have the idea of light pardon.
Although he felt resentful, Qi Yu did not think that the civil service group had become pedantic and could not distinguish between right and wrong. The reason why they acted this way was mainly due to their pride.
In recent years, the Great Feng Dynasty has continued to expand its territory, and its territory has also increased day by day. This phenomenon has also directly led to the improvement of the status of the general group. In this way, civil servants appear inferior.
It is certain that the teeth are sore, and the imbalance in the heart is certain.
Therefore, it is necessary to make a unique voice of civilian officials. The best way is to be contrary to the views of the military generals group. They advocate using force to deter one's own side and emphasize persuading others with virtue. At least it looks like they are evenly matched.
Regarding the strife between the civil and military groups, Su Liu basically stayed on the sidelines. What she hates to see the most is the two parties uniting to unite.
It was precisely because of the stranglehold between civil and military forces that those prisoners of war were able to survive. Otherwise, there would have been a general explanation for this matter even if the emperor was not around.
Qi Yu believed that these prisoners of war could not be kept, otherwise they would be breeding tigers.
Since these people deserve to die, and I want to show off my power, why not use their heads?
If there are no sharp measures to deter people, it is inevitable that yesterday's road blockage drama will still happen.
It is against the law to privately punish prisoners, but Meng Jiming had already thought about his excuses and would never be stepped on because of any legal oversight.
. The Qi and Meng families can be said to be well connected. How could the Meng family stand by and watch what happened to Brother Qi?
Although Lu Boxuan was once a friend of my father Meng Lanshan, when it comes to national justice, he can only do good. Even if the old man's spirit in heaven knew about it, he would definitely not blame him in vain.
The end result was that the foreign prisoners of war were taken to a bustling vegetable market and beheaded.
Before killing Xing, Qi Yu deliberately recited a judgment eloquently, which was to determine the nature of these people's deaths. According to his explanation, the prisoners of war committed a total of 21 unpardonable crimes, including war crimes, plunder, and crimes against humanity. Their actions were so cruel that even death would not be enough to cover up their innocence.
Although the onlookers did not understand the meaning of the crime, they still firmly believed that these foreign devils definitely deserved to be killed. Don't literati often say that those who offend China will be punished no matter how far away they are? If they don't follow a few examples, how can they frighten foreign countries?
As Huang Fei's hand raised and lowered the knife, pillars of blood shot out like fountains, making the people watching the excitement burst with blood and scream in surprise.
At this moment, Qi Yu was clearly an indifferent god of death.
He is indeed indifferent now, with almost no emotion, and there is an aura of killing and decisiveness in his righteous eyes.
As everyone knows, he is thinking about another thing in his mind. How will the civil service group impeach him over this matter?
If this was a private execution, they might have something to criticize, but now it's broad daylight, so they can't confidently speak up for the foreign captives who invaded our country, right?
Doing so may arouse public outrage!
At most, they would just use legal procedures as an excuse and use themselves as a proxy to execute criminals privately. If this is the result, it seems to be acceptable.
Qi Yu believed that as long as he could suppress his dissident colleagues this time, his resistance to gaining a foothold in the temple would be greatly reduced. Most importantly, today's move will definitely win over the support of many military generals.
Huang Fei observed for a while, then moved to Qi Yu's side and said, "Sir, a lot of people were peeping in the dark just now. It is estimated that 1989 was sent by the ministers to investigate."
Qi Yu smiled lightly and said, "This is just to scare the monkeys. If the monkeys don't look at it, wouldn't it be boring?" After a pause, he sighed and said, "Master Lu has been kind enough to help me in my career. Unless I have to, I will do it." I really don’t want to protest against him. I just hope he can understand justice and stop being greedy for power.”
Huang Fei was not good at fighting for power, but when it came to interpersonal relationships in the officialdom, he was knowledgeable. He thought about it and persuaded him: "Your Excellency, you have been immersed in the officialdom for many years. You should understand the generally accepted truth of this. In officialdom, In the hierarchy, there are neither constant friends nor eternal enemies. The so-called positions are all the result of interests involved. The relationship with Mr. Lu is no exception. Although the friendship was acceptable before, this moment is different from the other moment. , how can we say the same thing?"
Yes, people change. Read the book
Sticking to the original intention is easier said than done. I am too nostalgic, which is obviously contrary to the reality of officialdom.
