Emperor Phoenix Policy: Feng Qingtian

Chapter 276
Feng Jin smiled without saying a word.

Seeing that Tan Tan couldn't hear Feng Jin's plan, Pei Xiu changed the subject, "Your Majesty still wants to use a humble official, so aren't you afraid that the humble official will have ulterior motives?"

Feng Jin sneered, "In this court, who doesn't have their own intentions and selfishness? Could it be that they are really loyal to the emperor and the country, and serve the country and the people? As long as there are no mistakes in major festivals, I don't care about your petty thoughts."

"Your Majesty isn't afraid that humble ministers will form cliques for personal gain and cause waves?"

"Pei Xiu, you think too highly of yourself. You didn't even drag me down when you were in your heyday, let alone in the future?"

Pei Xiu's face was a little embarrassed, "That's because I don't want to..."

"Then keep thinking about it! Anyway, you can't do it if you think about it."

Pei Xiu was silent, Feng Jin slightly raised his hand, "Back off, I haven't had breakfast yet."

"The humble minister is useless."

Feng Jin's eyes flickered, and she gave Pei Xiu a meaningful look, "Then let's stay and use it together."

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your compassion."

Feng Jin smiled, and thought to himself, isn't this what's on your mind?

During breakfast, neither of them spoke, and there was only the slight sound of plates and spoons colliding in the room.

In this quiet morning, the monarch and his ministers, who had been at odds for a long time, unexpectedly had a rare harmony.

After breakfast, Pei Xiu took his leave. Before leaving the house, Feng Jin called him back, "I heard that people from the Liu residence have been taken to prison? A total of 230 people."

"Yes."

"What do you want to do?"

"Cut all in half! First, cut the grass and roots, and second, to make a warning to others!"

Feng Jin fell into silence, Pei Xiu's eyes flickered slightly, "Your Majesty disagrees?"

"I heard that there is a newborn baby in there..."

"Does Your Majesty want to let him go?"

Before Feng Jin could speak, Pei Xiu had already said eagerly, "Your Majesty, none of the remnants of the previous dynasty can be left behind! The whereabouts of Xuanyuan Zhen of Dayan Hall were unknown, and Xuanyuan Hao was silent in the dungeon. We can't find him." The exact location of the Great Yan Hall, and how many evils of the previous dynasty are lurking in the whole Great Zhou, so if one can be caught, one must be killed to make an example of others! Don’t let the remnants of the previous dynasty see His Majesty’s mercy!”

Feng Jin was silent, "Forget it, I told you to leave this matter to you, I just asked, so you can do whatever you want."

In the evening, news came that all four members of Liu's House 230 had been cut in half, and none survived. Feng Jin sighed faintly after hearing the news.

Pei Xiu used the prime minister's decree to announce to the world that anyone who reported the remnants of the previous dynasty's crimes would be rewarded heavily. People panicked for a while, but this also shocked Dayan Hall, and the entire organization disappeared for a while.

Dayan Tang had several waves of people robbing the prison, trying to rescue Xuanyuan Hao, but they all failed. Instead of being rescued, Pei Xiu captured many people, forced him to find out some things, and wiped out several strongholds.

But even so, the headquarters of Dayan Hall was still not found, and the main forces of Dayan Hall were not found out. As for the emperor's grandson Xuanyuanzhen, there was no news.

Feng Jin knew that they were lurking, waiting for the time to come, which made her feel a little uneasy, but there was nothing she could do.

May [-]th is an auspicious day for everything.

When it was time to arrive, Feng Jin was called to get up by the green clothes, freshened up, today was her first day in charge, and it was an auspicious day selected by the Ministry of Rites.

Feng Jin was very calm, but Lu Yi was so excited that her hands shook. Even Aunt Zhong, although her face was calm, her voice trembled when she ordered the palace servants to do things.

Seeing the busy palace people coming in and out, Feng Jin was a little dazed.

Even though there was a lot of people, she felt an unspeakable loneliness welling up in her heart.

Shen Wenqing also came. When Aunt Zhong carefully held the Ping Tian Crown and put it on Feng Jin, just as she was about to tie a ribbon on her, Shen Wenqing said softly, "Let me do it."

Aunt Zhong was stunned, and subconsciously glanced at Feng Jin. Feng Jin nodded lightly, and Aunt Zhong stepped aside, letting Shen Wenqing take her place.

Shen Wenqing carefully tied a ribbon on Feng Jin, separated by twelve jades, Shen Wenqing's handsome and elegant face was divided into many pieces.

He looked serious, his fingers were very thin and long, white and clean, Feng Jin sighed faintly, "Wen Qing, can you blame me?"

Regarding retaining Pei Xiu, she had already told Shen Wenqing that one of Pei Xiu's prime ministers would not be moved, nor would the Pei family.

She didn't want to cause turmoil in Dazhou. She didn't think that Pei Xiu really wanted to resign as the prime minister. I will keep myself safe.

If you lose a first assistant and then a prime minister, if you press too hard, the Pei party will rebound.

What's more, leaving aside the grievances between her and Pei Xiu, Pei Xiu is more competent than anyone else.

"Your Majesty is the emperor, Wenqing dare not complain."

"That's a complaint."

Shen Wenqing's hand tied with the ribbon paused slightly, but he said nothing.

Feng Jin's voice became melancholy, "Forget it, I didn't keep my promise, so blame me."

Shen Wenqing was silent for a while, "Although Wen Qing has complaints, she also understands His Majesty. Wen Qing knows that she is not as good as Prime Minister Pei..."

"It's not that you are inferior to him, but that your temperament is a little softer, and you lack decisiveness in killing and attacking, so you can't restrain the civil and military of the Manchu Dynasty."

Feng Jin said with a heavy sigh, "I have already thought of a place for you to go and sharpen your knife. You need to be sharper."

As she spoke, her eyes became perplexed, and she stretched out her hand as if wanting to land on his head, but paused in the air, and gently landed on his shoulder, "Wenqing, Wuming is gone, I only have you, you ..."

Shen Wenqing turned his face slightly, looking at the slender hand that was as snowy as jade, an unspeakable feeling grew in his heart, he lowered his eyes, and his voice could not help becoming gentle, "Don't worry, Your Majesty, Wen Qing will always be with you .”

"That's not what I mean, what I mean is that Wuming is gone, I only have you, but you will leave again soon, I feel a little sad."

Shen Wenqing suddenly raised her head, "Leave? Where are you going?"

"I want you to follow the supervisory censor to inspect the government affairs of the government offices in various places in Dazhou, and temper yourself."

Shen Wenqing's expression changed immediately, "You want to leave the imperial capital?"

"Yes what's the matter?"

Seeing Shen Wenqing's expression, Feng Jin frowned, "Wenqing, this is the best place to go, it will allow you to sharpen quickly, if you can pull down one or two corrupt officials above rank four who are fish and meat, you will immediately If you do great work, I will let you skyrocket, and the civil and military officials will not say anything."

Shen Wenqing remained silent.

Feng Jin's brows tightened even more, "Wenqing, this is the best way I can think of, Liu Zhao is the first-rank censor at Yushitai, and the censor is vacant, and I will ask someone to occupy the position first. As long as you can make great achievements, you can jump several levels in a row, and within three years, Yu Shiling will be yours!"

Shen Wenqing remained silent.

"Wen Qing, the emperor can be impeached on the censor's platform, and the courtiers can be killed on the next. The censor's order kneels down at the royal ancestral hall and at the gate of the palace. Even I have to be subdued. I hate being threatened with death. Hold this place in the palm of your hand, if you don't want to, I won't force you, I will..."

"Wenqing is willing."

Seeing Shen Wenqing's displeased expression, Feng Jin sighed, "Wenqing, I can't give you the position of prime minister, and I can't give it to you. You don't like Yushi so I have nothing to say..."

"It's not that Wenqing doesn't like Yushiling, it's that Wenqing doesn't want to leave the imperial capital."

"Why?"

Shen Wenqing was silent for a long time before she whispered, "Wenqing and his wife are newly married..."

The Feng family laughed dumbly, and patted Shen Wenqing on the shoulder, "You are indeed a childhood sweetheart, with deep affection, and my lonely family will be jealous of you, that's all, I allow you to bring your wife to take office."

Shen Wenqing's eyes flickered, "My Madam is just pregnant, it's not suitable for a long journey, please be sympathetic to Your Majesty."

"That's it, then I will give you a third-rank supervision history first, so you don't need to go out of Beijing."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Aunt Zhong took the jade belt, Shen Wenqing tied Feng Jin's jade belt seriously, the white jade waist buckle on the jade belt was cool and shiny.

"Wenqing, I just remembered, you married Li Qing on April [-]th, and today it's only May [-]th, and you're pregnant..."

Feng Jin hesitated to speak, Shen Wenqing lowered her head, concealed the coldness in her eyes, and said nothing.

Feng Jin immediately understood, "I'm sorry, Wen Qing, I was rude, but I didn't expect you to be so bloody. When Fang just couldn't help it, it's no wonder you were in a hurry to marry Li Qing. It turns out that you went there a long time ago. Wushan is cloudy and rainy, and there is a dream of King Xiang and Goddess."

Shen Wenqing didn't explain, and after fastening the jade belt, she retreated respectfully to the side.

Outside the house, Wang Quan, the head of internal affairs, flicked his white whisk and said loudly, "The morning is approaching, Your Majesty is driving!"
