Chapter 220 should be beheaded according to the law
Within one day, Yang Yue's thunderous means were lightning fast, first arresting Liu Zuoyang, the head of the household department, and then quickly arresting Xue Mingkun, the waiter of the Yellow Gate. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Wei Changfeng, a member of the Zhongshu House, was not long after he left the prison, returned to the house with the front foot, and was arrested by the right martial arts of the government office with the back foot, and was imprisoned again.
For a while, in Chang'an City, the city was full of wind and rain, and many officials were frightened, and no one knew whether the next time would be whether they would be caught in prison by the right guard.
For several days, the officials who were as quiet as a cicada finally couldn't help but panic in their hearts, and they ran around to no avail.
When even the Yuwen family, the He family, and the Li family did not dare to interfere, more than ten officials in Chang'an, under the leadership of Gao Shengyan, the secretary of the Ministry of War, went to the palace to impeach Yang Yue to the emperor.
More than ten important ministers of the court arrived at the palace, and Gao Heng, the eunuch in front of the palace, quickly reported the matter to Yang Mingkun.
Knowing that Gao Shengyan, the secretary of the Ministry of War, brought his ministers into the palace, Yang Mingkun was in the imperial study, waiting for more than ten officials of Gao Shengyan.
Since the beginning of the reform, since the arrest of Wei Changkong, the assassin of Liangzhou, many officials have sent him excerpts to intercede for Wei Changkong.
There were also a few officials who sent an excerpt and suggested that when the crime was confirmed, he should behead Wei Changkong at the noon gate and make an example of him.
Otherwise, in the court, there is a lack of murderous spirit, and the officials despise the majesty of the court.
As the emperor, Yang Mingkun also wants to kill decisively, but Wei Changkong is from the Wei family, a family with four surnames, if Wei Changkong's crime is followed, many fraudulent officials will definitely be found.
If the court sends four surnames to Guanzhong, five surnames and seven looks, the military gate, make an exception and kill them. When this force unites, there will be a bloody storm in the court.
Gao Shengyan and the ministers hurriedly arrived in the imperial study, Yang Mingkun was reviewing the chapters, and saw Gao Shengyan and other courtiers hurriedly come in and put the brush in their hands on the inkstone.
Yang Mingkun took a sip of the teacup, stared at Gao Shengyan and asked, "Gao Shangshu, what is the important matter for you to enter the palace?" ”
At this time, Yang Mingkun only knew that Yang Yue was planning to capture the Hubu Shangshu, Xue Mingkun, and Wei Changfeng were arrested and imprisoned, and he was not clear at present.
Gao Shengyan did not hesitate, poofed, knelt on his knees, looked like he was crying bitterly, and said loudly: "Your Majesty, Weichen impeached Yang Yue, King Yan, who led the right military guard, in Chang'an City, wantonly arrested officials, Weichen suspected, King Yan deliberately eliminated dissidents under the banner of implementing reforms, and monopolized the court and threatened the prince. ”
"Is there conclusive evidence for the large-scale arrest of officials?" Hearing this, Yang Mingkun asked in surprise.
Gao Shengyan said that Yang Yue led the right military guard to arrest court officials on a large scale, and he believed it, but he said that Yang Yue was using the banner of promoting reform, eliminating dissidents, and threatening the prince, and he didn't believe it a little.
Recently, the reform has been implemented, and although there is resistance in the excerpts presented by various places, there have been small gains in the strong implementation of the patrol envoys who have gone to various places.
In the excerpts sent back to the court by the inspection envoys from all over the country, it was revealed that many landlords had hidden fertile land, and after re-measurement, all of them had been returned to the court.
Some landlords even concealed and reported several times the amount of fertile land, and a large amount of taxes that should have been paid to the court flowed into the landlords' mansions in various places.
These things were not reported by officials in the past, but now, in the implementation of reform, Yang Mingkun feels that Yang Yue's proposal to implement reform is not wrong at all.
Gao Shengyan heard the emperor's inquiry, and hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, King Yan is moving too fast, within half a day, Wei Changfeng, a scholar from the Zhongshu House, Pei Yongke, a secretary of the Ministry of Works, Liu Zuoyang, a secretary of the household department, and Xue Mingkun, a waiter of the Yellow Gate, were all imprisoned, and many officials who were involved with Lord Wei, Lord Liu, and Lord Xue were all arrested.
made the ministers panic, for fear that they would suffer an unwarranted disaster, and at some point, they were imprisoned by King Yan. ”
"Shhh Listening to the report, Yang Mingkun couldn't help but gasp, he only learned that Yang Yue was going to arrest Hubu Shangshu, but unexpectedly, Yang Yue arrested so many people in half a day.
On the dragon chair, Yang Mingkun's face gradually became serious, Yang Yue wantonly arrested the court officials, if the evidence is conclusive, the hundred officials have nothing to say. If, as Gao Shengyan said, to exclude dissidents, Yang Yue's actions will make the court loud and noisy.
After a little silence, Yang Mingkun raised his head, glanced at the courtiers of the High Sage, and asked, "What about you, are you also here to impeach King Yan?" ”
"Your Majesty, Weichen impeached King Yan!"
"Wechen impeached King Yan."
"Weichen seconded!"
........
For a while, in the court, more than ten officials, all of whom were excited, sent the folded pieces in their hands to the imperial eunuch Gao Heng.
Gao Heng put the excerpt on the dragon case, but Yang Mingkun didn't read it, and only said in a light tone: "Gao Shangshu, King Yan is cautious and will never act rashly, you retreat first, and I will find out." ”
"Your Majesty, King Yan is just messing around." Gao Shengyan couldn't help but not leave, but said in a hurry: "Your Majesty, in the early morning, King Yan arrested Wei Changfeng, a member of the Zhongshu House, for the crime of treason, and arrested Pei Yongke, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry. At noon, Lord Wang Mingfan of the Criminal Department released Lord Wei and Lord Pei.
Who knows, King Yan arrested Liu Zuoyang, the head of the household, and Xue Mingkun, the waiter of the Yellow Gate. Not long ago, Wei Changfeng, a member of the Zhongshu House who had just returned from his cell, was arrested by the right guards and put in prison in the house.
Within one day, King Yan said to arrest him, so he arrested the court officials, saying that there was no royal law at all. didn't take the emperor seriously. ”
"Gao Shangshu, framing the court officials, according to the court law, what should I do?" When the ministers focused their eyes on the dragon chair, Yang Yue's voice suddenly came from outside the imperial study.
Gao Shengyan turned around and saw Yang Yue wearing a python robe and striding into the imperial study.
In the center of the study, Yang Yue bowed down and saluted Yang Mingkun, turned around and stared straight at Gao Shengyan, waiting for him to answer.
Gao Shengyan, with Gao Xiaoyun on the left, and Gao Xiaoli, the general of the Xiaowei on the right, are all from the Gao family of the military family.
However, in the current Gao family, Gao Xiaoyun is the main vein, and Gao Shengyan is a branch vein.
In the past, the three Gao brothers all supported Yang Xiao, the king of Shu.
After several changes in the court, Gao Xiaoyun gradually withdrew from the dispute between the princes and began to be loyal to the emperor wholeheartedly.
Today, Gao Shengyan entered the palace to impeach him, and Yang Yue guessed that he had a close relationship with the King of Shu.
Gao Shengyan noticed that Yang Yue's sharp arrows were like eyes, stared straight at him, and said: "Your Royal Highness, according to the decree of the court, you should be the staff of the court if you frame the court officials." ”
"Really?" Yang Yue asked rhetorically and said, "Gao Shangshu, are you sure you remember correctly?" ”
"Of course, Xia Guan will definitely not be mistaken!" Gao Shengyan cut the railway.
Hearing this, Yang Yue chuckled, took out the fold from his arms, took a few steps forward, sent it to Gao Heng, turned his head to Yang Mingkun and said: "Father, in this fold, there are Liu Zuoyang, the head of the household department, Xue Mingkun, the waiter of the Yellow Gate, and Wei Changfeng, the scholar of the Zhongshu House, who confessed his guilt.
