eldest son of Ming dynasty

Chapter 421

A dead Taoist friend is not a poor Taoist.

At this juncture, Chen Youguang would not care so much.

Moreover, the emperor himself has become suspicious of this matter, and it is not difficult to find out the ins and outs and clues. Now that there is a chance to reduce the guilt, why not do it?
And he and this Wei Xuezheng don't have a good friendship.

It only took two or three months to become colleagues in this city that never sleeps.

The most important thing is that he himself was born as a Jinshi, and the surname Wei is Jin Yiwei.

Factory guards, factory guards, there is no good thing.

What are you doing here to make such a difficult lie for him?
After thinking about it for a while, Chen Youguang explained the situation clearly, saying: "...the reason why the case was closed a few days late is because the minister and the others did not rule that the two sons of the Earl's Mansion were not allowed to go to this tofu shop again. .”

As soon as these words came out, the expressions of everyone in Qianqing Palace began to change.

But Zhu Houzhao actually didn't have any other thoughts, "I can understand your official positions. So this case has been tried at least twice, how did you close the first time?"

What the emperor said was understandable. Chen Youguang suddenly felt hopeful, and immediately kowtowed, "Your Majesty, forgive me! As Your Majesty said, whether it is Weiningbo or Changningbo, where are the people from the two Earl's residences going or not going? Even if the law and order made a ruling, it was useless. None of them could be stopped by the minister. So this first trial, they only lost money. It's just that the proprietress of the tofu shop didn't appreciate it. The two of you are not allowed to go to the tofu shop again, and you are yelling at the court, the minister and Wei Baihu have no choice but to drink her away."

"Then why did it rule that these two people were not allowed to go?"

"Later, Chang Ningbo and Wei Ningbo came to the door in person and asked to act in accordance with the court's laws. That's why there was a second trial result."

Actually, that sounds good too.

The powerful Earl's Mansion has repeatedly made concessions, first losing money, and then voluntarily asking not to bend the law for personal gain. As a public security office, what they considered was right. The ruling is useless, so what else is there to award?
wrong!

Zhu Houzhao suddenly thought of something. Since Dr. Tan said it, the matter must not be resolved.

Since it is not resolved...

"Chen Youguang, let me ask you, Zhou and Wang, will you go again afterward?"

Chen Youguang opened his big eyes, "Go! Your Majesty, as I said, how can a lowly official like me stop the people from the Earl's Mansion?"

"madness!"

Zhu Houzhao was so angry that he became angry on the spot.

this case,

He listened left and right, but he really couldn't hear anything wrong.
The Earl's Mansion did not bully others, or it was a little bit of a fight, but at least it took out money to pay for it.

In this era, it is really not easy for people of this status to treat civilians with such an attitude.

I was wondering what went wrong.

Until now he finally understood that the issue was decided at the public security station, but it was useless!
"The city that never sleeps attracts people and merchants with its prosperity and order. Now that it has just opened, the prestige of your security station has plummeted! Isn't this stupid? What is it? The first trial, fear of the powerful, has already made the people quite suspicious. The second trial, It turned out to be useless, and let people know the weakness of the security office. Is this how I explained when I set up the security office?! Especially you, Wei Xuezheng. You are a hundred households of Jinyiwei. What to say, how to say."

The emperor criticized everyone here with his words of blame.

Wei Xuezheng was even more scared out of his wits, "I know my mistake! Please, Your Majesty, please spare my life, next time, next time, I will definitely take the blame and make meritorious service!"

Zhu Houzhao didn't speak.

He doesn't have to speak. If Mao Yuwen can't understand this, then he doesn't deserve to live to this day.

In fact, the identities of these two people are still different.

Chen Youguang is a civil servant, he is in the Ministry of Punishment, he is in the literary world, and he still cares more or less about his reputation among scholars.

But Jinyiwei is different,
To put it bluntly, why did the emperor stuff Jinyiwei inside and let them sit in court with these Jinshi?

I want them to represent the emperor, to be the ears and eyes of the emperor!
Today, the prelude is right, Wei Xuezheng should have supplemented Chen Youguang's replay!

This is the most fundamental problem of Jin Yiwei. If he loses this point, he will lose the value of existence.

This is the bottom line, we cannot be weak and kind at this time.

Zhu Houzhao's heart became ruthless, and he was already thinking about it.

"Li Qing, Yu Wen, what do you two have to say?"

Mao Yuwen knew his problem, and a flash of determination flashed in his eyes, "Jinyiwei is the emperor's own army, and I know my duty. This time, I have no way to control my subordinates. I would like to receive twenty army sticks! If your majesty can stay My humble life, I will definitely rectify Jinyiwei after I return!"

Zhu Houzhao remained expressionless, and said, "Take this person away with me, I don't want to see him."

Wei Xuezheng felt as if he had fallen into an ice cellar!It's over!
"Your Majesty, spare your life! Your Majesty, spare your life!"

This cry is useless.

In fact, Mao Yuwen's own summary is in place, Jin Yiwei's duty must not be forgotten.

"Your Majesty." Gu Zuo is not in danger of his life. He is now worried about the matter itself, "I would like to ask for your order to investigate this case in detail. If it is true as it is said today, then this case is not a small case."

"That's not necessary. Li Qing, your duty is not to investigate cases. Liu Jin,"

"The servant is here."

"Is there anyone among you supervisors who is a bit tougher?"

Liu Jin lowered his eyebrows, "The supervisors of ceremonies are all rootless people. Whether you are tough or not depends on what your majesty says. If your majesty says kill, the servants will kill. If you kill stubbornly, if your majesty says kneel, the servants will kneel."

"Okay. Then you find a suitable person and put them in the public security station. Just use the name of the Supervisor of Ceremonies. I don't believe that the word Wang Fa can't be found in the capital!"

"His Majesty!"

When Gu Zuo heard this, he felt something was wrong.The power of the eunuch is constantly expanding, and now it is still inappropriate to extend to the city that never sleeps.Moreover, Liu Jin is ruthless, what if he destroys the overall situation of the city that never sleeps?
"I implore Your Majesty to submit this case to my humble minister for retrial, and I will definitely give His Majesty an explanation at that time."

"The supervisor of ceremonies is in charge of this matter. In fact, this is not a good job. If the people below can't manage it well, the people above will be unlucky. You treat him as Liu Jin is now full of joy? If you don't handle it well, you will be punished by your own people." To be deceived, Mao Yuwen's twenty military sticks are also indispensable to him."

Liu Jin smiled, "The slaves have taken over the errand, there is no reason to be unhappy, it is the blessing of the slaves to share the worries and labors of His Majesty."

"Okay. Let's do it. The harm of this case, I have already explained clearly just now, where is the crux, do you know?"

Liu Jin nodded, "Your servant understands. Your Majesty wants people to know that what the court said, it counts."

What the court said, it counts.

Liu Jin is an eunuch, but he can say a subtle sentence.

But in fact, this sentence can be more specific, for example... who is the imperial court?

"It's me, what I said counts."

Zhu Houzhao walked up to Gu Zuo and said, "From the crown prince to the emperor, and from being in charge of the country, I have been in this position for several years. I don't know how many people have heard about the way of governing the country. But in my own opinion, In any case, the word "faith" cannot be lost. The emperor's words, once said, are effective, and this rule cannot be overstepped. Li Qing, you have to understand me. Sometimes the world can't just blindly be lenient and benevolent, and some people should know that it will damage the court. It is not allowed.”

"His Majesty……"

"If this is not the case, the city that never sleeps will not be able to prosper." Zhu Hou looked into his eyes and said firmly.

Gu Zuo was finally persuaded, he took two steps back, bowed his head and bowed, "My minister, obey the order."

The emperor turned around and glanced at Liu Jin,
With his gaze in place, Eunuch Liu bowed his head and left the Qianqing Palace, taking Chen Youguang away along the way.

It is inevitable for him to be punished with death, and it is inevitable for him to live. The specific outcome depends on his performance.

In fact, in the eyes of civil servants, the emperor is not cruel, but eunuch Liu is different...

And Eunuch Liu is also a smart person.

Even though he hadn't read the sentence "Jian Ting Ze Ming", but one party in this case has not said a word, he is conscious of this.

So he returned to the Supervisor of Rituals and passed the order, after which Dongchang's fans followed him out of the palace to the city that never sleeps.

In the sedan chair, he also told Chen Youguang his grievances, "You self-proclaimed high-ranking civil servants always think that our family is in charge of too much. But the eunuch who is in charge of our family is the dog who guards the emperor. "It's the emperor's words to care more and less. So, if you don't live up to yourself, don't say those complaints."

Just now when Gu Zuo was the emperor, he wanted to repel the supervisor of ceremonies from intervening in this matter, Liu Jin also remembered it in his heart.

But to Chen Youguang, it doesn't mean much. This guy bows his head in front of the rich and powerful, and he has no dignity in front of power, so he nods like garlic.

Liu Jin was somewhat proud,

"However, it is precisely because you people are not up to the mark. Your Majesty wants to use our family."

"Liu...Eunuch Liu, where are we going?"

"Where to. Of course, go to the central street of the city that never sleeps. Your majesty wants to support the merchants here, and the supervisor of rituals will fully support this."

Originally, they were expected to be the masters of the shops here, but they didn't live up to it!

However, Liu Jin waited for a while outside the city that never sleeps.

Until someone came to report that people from Changningbo and Weiningbo's mansions had gone again.

Only then did Liu Jin order, "Get up the sedan chair!"

At the same time, he told Chen Youguang beside him: "You insist on it in a moment, the public security station has indeed ruled that the two of them cannot go to this store. You don't need to say more about the rest."

Chen Youguang didn't dare to say anything, and said honestly: "Yes."

The eunuch's palanquin is maroon red, with a large armchair inside, with bamboo bars on both sides, and a footboard under the chair, without matching curtains. The inside and outside can see each other. There are eight people in the palanquin. They were carried together, and the front and back were guarded by Dongchang fanzi.

With such ostentation, once entering the main gate of the Evernight City, it immediately attracted everyone's attention.

What are you going to do today?
