Chapter 201 Meridian Gate asks(1/2)

"Let me keep it a secret first, and the emperor will know then."

The more Mu Zehao didn't say it, the more curious Mu Hongrui was.

"But brother, what do you think of Yun Sicheng?"

"This person's ability to judge cases is really good. If he hadn't suddenly thought of the relationship between the two and had made good responses, we might have allowed Prince Ming to successfully escape from the capital. It would probably not be so easy to arrest him." Mu Hongrui's comment must be high.

"Why did you mention him suddenly?"

"I just think she has good case handling skills."

"This is true. I have made her achievements since she became a county magistrate. He has made the two places of Yuxian and Cangxian very well. Especially the bandits in Cangxian have always been a headache for the local county magistrates, but he relied on wisdom and solved it without using one soldier."

"Then brother, you have been preparing to deal with the corrupt officials and family members escorted back from Dali Temple for a long time. Now the prison cells are almost filled with them.

There are also those men in black and Prince Ming. After being kept in a long time, they are afraid of some accidents." Mu Zehao was a little worried.

"I will announce the execution at noon tomorrow. What should I do next to the morning court." Mu Hongrui immediately understood what he meant.

The main reason is that these two major events are crowded together, and there are too many detainees, otherwise Mu Zehao would have nothing to worry about.

...

The next morning, outside the side hall of Qianqing Palace.

"Li Dehai, accompany me to a place first." Mu Hongrui's lips curled up.

"Li Dehai comes here and lend me your head."

"ah!"

Li Dehai looked at Mu Hongrui and looked at him, and he squatted down against the wall without complaining.

"Your Majesty, that's OK."

Mu Hongrui stood steadily on Li Dehai's head with his toes, and his hands gently opened a small window outside the side hall of Qianqing Palace and leaned his head in.

"I don't know if Mr. Yan's health has improved?"

"I heard that it's fine, but it's a pity that Prince Ming was imprisoned at a young age."

"Now Ge Lao Yan has to send a black-haired man to a white-haired man."

"Do you think this Prince Ming really did not make a mistake?"

"Don't ask, if the king wants his minister to die, he has to die."

"I'm just a little curious. You know that Prince Ming is quite famous among the younger generation. If he commits a crime, I can't believe it."

"Who said no."

The few people here were talking about the Prince of Ming, while the other was talking about the corrupt officials.

"You don't know. Yesterday, our Ministry of Revenue calculated the greedy silver coins, and there were tens of millions of taels of silver alone, not including some other things."

"That's too much."

"I don't know how the emperor will deal with these corrupt officials and their families?"

"Either kill or exile, or just these kinds of people."

However, some officials who were already a little greedy for money are now a little nervous, for fear that the emperor would not pay attention and search all of them.

"I think the emperor is determined to punish those corrupt officials this time."

"The emperor's move to kill the chicken to warn the monkey is so wonderful."

“…”

The ministers sitting there stood up when they saw Ge Lao Yan coming in.

"Gemaster Yan, are you in good health?"

"It's okay, I'm worried about my colleagues."

Outside the wall, Li Dehai could no longer stand, mainly because the emperor was not light.

"Stand for me quickly." Mu Hongrui looked down at Li Dehai.

Li Dehai was so scared that he had to grit his teeth and prevent himself from moving.

"I just hope that the emperor can be lighter at that time." Ge Lao Yan secretly glanced at all the colleagues present with his own light.

When Mu Hongrui heard this, he couldn't help but frown. This old man Yan Ge is worthy of being an old fox.

At this moment, the Dali Temple Minister Fei Yaoyi and Shaoqing Duan Yicheng walked in from outside together. After a while, they were surrounded by colleagues.

"Mr. Fei, has the emperor revealed what will be dealt with by those people?"

"You and I can control the decisions of the emperor." Fei Yaoyi shook his head.

"We should be careful when we talk. We should know when we go to the morning court later."

Everyone thought about it, so they stopped this topic.

When Mu Hongrui heard this, he was no longer interested in continuing to listen. Before Li Dehai could react, Mu Hongrui had already jumped and returned to the ground.

Li Dehai only felt that his feet were weak and his neck was a little sore, but he still had to quickly follow the emperor.

...

Ganqing Palace.

"Long live my emperor." The voice of shouting three times echoed in the Ganqing Palace.

"My dear friends!" Mu Hongrui looked gentle and raised his head to signal.

"Long live thanking." The officials stood up one after another, thanking him.

"This morning, I have important matters to announce to all my dear ministers." Mu Hongrui put his hands on the dragon throne, but his eyes fell on the officials.

All the officials in the court were silent for a while, wanting to know what the emperor was going to say. After all, halfway through yesterday, Ge Ge of Ge suddenly fainted due to the matter of Prince Ming, and the emperor also followed the imperial physician to the side hall.

"Li Dehai, start reading the imperial edict."

At this moment, Li Dehai's voice sounded.

"Prediction." As he said that, Li Dehai unfolded the imperial edict in his hand.

As Li Dehai's voice fell, all the officials knelt on the ground.

"In accordance with the heavens, the emperor ordered that the Sishui County Magistrates were rampant and illegal, accepted huge bribes, bullied the good, and long-term harm to the neighbors. They created countless unjust, false and wrong cases, causing complaints from the people, and the crime was extremely serious. All property was confiscated and confiscated. The first offender was beheaded outside the Meridian Gate and made public, and his family were all sent to the frontier."

"By the heavens, the emperor ordered that the merchants of Gao Zhanhe, Sishui County, colluded with others and cleverly seized other people's property, and bribed the Sishui County Magistrate several times, causing the destruction of others' families, and the crime was extremely serious. According to the law, the Gao family's land was confiscated and confiscated. Gao Zhanhe immediately pushed the Meridian Gate to behead him. All other males were taken to the border for hard labor. All females were over fifteen years old and all under fifteen years old were exiled, and all those under fifteen years old were entered Yinlefang."

"In accordance with the heavens, the emperor ordered that the prefect of the Qing Yunzhou, Tongzhi, Tongzong and others accepted huge bribes, colluded with officials and businessmen, formed cliques for personal gain, causing complaints from the people, and their crimes were extremely serious, and all their property was confiscated. The first criminal was beheaded outside the Meridian Gate at noon and was beheaded outside the Meridian Gate, and all his family members were sent to the frontier."

"In accordance with the will of heaven, the emperor ordered that the Ming county prince Yan Qianbo plotted to murder the imperial court's official, pretended to be Chen Hua, the assistant minister of the Ministry of Rites, robbed prisoners in the street, and harmed the students who went to Beijing to take the exam, intending to prevent the smooth progress of the autumn examination, which made the people in the capital panic and the crime was extremely serious, so they pushed them outside the Meridian Gate to behead them."

The officials in the court did not expect that the emperor issued four imperial edicts in a row, and most of them were beheaded by the Meridian Gate.

When Yan Ge Lao heard that his son, the most valued son, was beheaded by the Meridian Gate, his eyes turned black and he fainted on the Ganqing Palace.

Mu Hongrui felt as if Mingjing was in his heart, and he sneered. Ge Lao Yan thought that he would be soft-hearted in this way.

But Mu Hongrui still had to do his skills on the surface, so he hurriedly asked a small eunuch beside him to go to the Imperial Hospital and invited the imperial physician to come to treat Ge Lao Yan today.

"Ge Yan is the humerus of the imperial court, but I see that Ge Yan is old and faints at the Ganqing Palace at all times. If I ask Ge Yan to continue to serve me, I am afraid that the world will blame me for not sympathizing with you."

Before the imperial physician came, Master Yan heard the emperor say this, he was neither awake nor awake, but in the end, for his own benefit, he slowly opened his eyes.

"Your Majesty, I am no longer in my mind."

"It's better to let the imperial physician see it. After all, Mr. Yan has fainted for two consecutive days. If there is really any problem with his body, it's better to detect and treat it early." Mr. Yan wants to say that he is not sick, but it's a fact that he fainted in the Ganqing Palace for two consecutive days, which makes him want to argue but has no way to argue.

"Your Majesty, the Imperial Doctor is here."

"Let him come in."

The imperial physician looked at it, and at this moment, Master Yan opened his eyes.

"Imperial Doctor, is Mr. Yan okay?"

"Go back to the emperor, Master Yan Ge is nothing big, he is just old and can't stand the stimulation." The imperial doctor was sweating coldly, and he had never treated anyone here again.

"Thank you, the emperor, for inviting the imperial physician for the old minister." At this time, Mr. Yan had already helped someone up slowly from the ground.

Mu Hongrui was symbolically concerned, and it looked sincere and touched the officials present.

All the officials below felt that they had followed a good emperor, and some even secretly used their sleeves to wipe the tears that had flowed out of their eyes at some point.

Master Yan glanced at other colleagues with his own eyes and had to secretly say, "The Emperor is really powerful now, which makes him, the old fox, want to say something but cannot say it."

"Since that's the case, in order to prevent Mr. Yan from fainting again after a while, someone will come, I'll give Mr. Yan a seat!"

For a moment, the officials of the cultural relics still felt a sense of awe, and the court suddenly became silent, all looking at Mu Hongrui.

"After a while, Dali Temple, the Ministry of Justice jointly executed the Meridian Gate."

"Yes, the emperor." The Minister of Justice and the Minister of the Dali Temple walked out from it.

"Retreat the court."

The Queen Mother, who received the news, fell on the ground with the tea cup in her hand and turned into pieces. A little tea in it was sprinkled on her dress, but she didn't care at all.
