The horror of the internal guard was once again revealed in this Shi family rebellion case, not to mention the direct arrest of the head of the Shi family and the heir of the next head of the family, not to mention the hundreds of clansmen who had evacuated in advance, all of them were arrested, and the court thundered a blow, which shocked the world.

But the scholars of the Great Jin Dynasty are not the kind of soft bones who dare not speak, those who have power are impeached immediately, and those who do not have power gather everywhere, unscrupulously scolding the internal guards, criticizing the government and government, and the students jointly signed a letter to the Shangshu, demanding a thorough investigation of the Shi family's rebellion case and publishing the evidence of the internal guards.

The more intelligent imperial history argues that the internal guards are too large, and in the case of the tight treasury of the imperial court, it is recommended to reduce the number of internal guards in order to save the imperial court expenses, and the purpose behind it is obvious.

"Smack!"

A piece of music was thrown on the ground, Huang Gonggong sighed, came over to change the tea in front of the emperor, and then picked up the music on the ground and put it on the bookcase.

The emperor was very sad, and he took stock of the land and redistributed it to the people, so that it was beneficial to the country and the people, why did he oppose Shilin, who had always called for caring for the people, and why did he ?!!

"Your Majesty," Huang Gonggong carefully comforted: "The first emperor once said that the words of scholars must not be ignored, nor should they be listened to all, and the first emperor also said that scholars mislead the country, and the emperor, do not take their words to heart." ”

The emperor was a little comforted when he heard this, sighed and said: "Father Emperor Shengming, it is impossible to be lonely, and what his old man can handle in an hour will be lonely for a day." ”

"Your Majesty, the first emperor is right, these scholars, only see the Shi family crying, then know that the people of the world are crying, look at the outside of the imperial capital, it snowed heavily overnight, and hundreds of people froze to death, why don't these guys say it. Xue Mi sneered and said, now that he often appears in the place where the emperor deliberates, the emperor's trust in him has deepened a little, and the imperial court's actions in Chen Guojun are all in his and Liu Han's judgment.

After Liu Han gave him the idea of sorting out the salt tax, he concluded that the imperial court was going to set off a big case in Chen Guojun, and after this case, the imperial court's attack on Pengzhu would be even more turbulent, and at this time, Pengzhu must be resolutely supported.

"It is the emperor's decision to check the land in Chen Guo, so attacking Pengzhu is attacking the emperor, and it is impossible for the emperor to make concessions on this, let alone dispose of Pengzhu, so you have to support Pengzhu no matter what, and supporting Pengzhu is supporting the emperor. ”

"Your Majesty, the ministers know that now the government and the opposition are in a hurry, but this is just a change of means for those who oppose the land clearance, the Shi family has a tough confrontation, embarked on the road of rebellion, and was severely punished by the imperial court, this road does not work, so they changed their means, trying to influence the government with the Qing Dynasty, the emperor, now you must insist!"

The emperor's face turned slightly pale, and he nodded slightly at Xue Mi, at this time, Xiao Huangmen came in to inform Pan Lian and others to ask to see him, and the emperor looked at Xue Mi and sneered: "Look, isn't this coming." ”

Xue Mi smiled faintly: "The soldiers are coming, the water is coming to cover the earth, the emperor, I don't believe it, they still have to intercede for rebellion." ”

"Intercede for rebellion?" The emperor thought about it for a moment and shook his head slightly: "This is not going to happen, I bet with you that they will never intercede for the Shi family, but well, it is estimated that they want to protect those protégés and former officials." ”

Xue Mi smiled: "This bet, the minister doesn't dare to fight." ”

The emperor laughed dryly, and motioned to the little yellow door general Pan Lian and them to call in, Pan Lian and the four auxiliary ministers came in together, and gave the emperor a salute first, and the emperor waved his hand: "No need to be polite, get up, move a seat for the Taishi and Master Zuo, they are old, sit and talk." ”

"Thank you for the emperor's grace. Pan Lian and Zuo Chen hurriedly thanked him, and the emperor laughed: "In the future, when Taishi and Zuo Master see me, they will sit down and remember." ”

Huang Gonggong hurriedly agreed, Xiao Huangmen moved the embroidery pier for Pan Lian and Zuo Chen, Pan Lian and Zuo Chen thanked him again, and then sat down, but the emperor got up from his seat, and the two of them quickly got up again.

"Sit, sit, sit down and talk, you are all old ministers, you work so hard every day, I have been sitting for a long time, my legs are a little numb, and I am all sitting and talking," the emperor waved his hand at them and said, after the two of them sat down, he asked: "The auxiliary ministers of Shangshutai are here today, I guess why?"

The five auxiliary ministers didn't speak, and the emperor continued: "I guess that you Aiqing are here for the Shi family, right?"

The five auxiliary ministers still didn't speak, their expressions had changed slightly, the atmosphere in the study was a little awkward, Pan Lian coughed lightly, and said slowly: " The emperor, the Shi family is rebellious, the crime is unforgivable, the ministers dare not intercede for them, it's just., the emperor, there are many protégés of the Shi family, there are both the government and the opposition, the minister heard that Chen Guojun's Siling Academy is supported by the Shi family, if according to the law, the students of this academy can be counted as the protégés of the Shi family, in addition, Chen Guo's White Turtle Martial Academy is also supported by the Shi family, according to the law, this is considered a protégé, if,."

"How many of them can be counted as the protégés of the Shi family? Also, how many of the three clans of the Shi family are counted in the court?" Xue Mi interjected and asked.

Qiuyun gasped, Pan Ji frowned and said: "The White Turtle Martial Arts School has always been the source of low-level officers in the Yanzhou Army, and the officers in the state army have been adjusted from time to time. ”

"The minister counted Yanzhou and its subordinate counties, and there are about 30 protégés of the Shi family, including two county commanders, eight county officials, and about 20 other officials at all levels, and seven people in the state capital. Gan Tang also slowly interjected, Cao Cao, one of the six Cao, is a subordinate of the Prime Minister's Mansion and is under the jurisdiction of the Prime Minister's Mansion, so he knows these personnel best.

The emperor frowned, this situation was beyond his expectations, he didn't expect to dismiss so many people, and said in his heart that pulling out the Shi family was to open up the situation of Chen Guo's land inventory and clear the obstacles for Pengzhu, but he really wanted to dismiss or assign so many officials, and he couldn't make up his mind.

"Your Majesty, save some vitality for Shilin, so many officials, in fact, they don't know that the Shi family is plotting rebellion," Zuo Chen said: "Just look at the Shi family's rebellion, whether it is Chen Guojun or Yanzhou, no one cooperates." ”

The emperor looked at Qiu Yun and asked, "Qiu Qing, it seems that you don't approve of it either?"

Qiuyun nodded, and said with some worry: "The emperor has been on the throne for less than a year, and such a big case has occurred, and so many officials have been dismissed. ”

The emperor didn't speak, slowly paced two steps, and looked up at Xue Yu: "Xue Qing, what do you think?"

The five ministers were a little surprised, Xue Mi was just a servant of the middle secretary, the power of the middle secretary was very small, to put it bluntly, it was to draft a not so important holy decree for the emperor, such an important court policy, the emperor actually consulted him, and this person was still famous for his gentleness in the imperial capital.

Xue Mi was a little apprehensive in his heart, this was the first time that the emperor had consulted him in front of so many ministers, he couldn't help but be a little excited, the emperor saw it, smiled lightly, and said gently: "Don't worry, think about it, think about it." ”

This was supposed to be a comfort, but Xue Mi was excited, and immediately had an answer: "Yes, Your Majesty, the ministers think that what you say is reasonable, but it should be treated differently, the Shi family is rebellious, and his protégés and former officials do not do any punishment, which is not good, Your Majesty, your lords, and the ministers think that the protégés of the Shi family in Chen Guojun and Yanzhou should be dismissed, let them go home, and they can only re-enter the office after three years, and those in other states, as well as those in the imperial capital, can be pardoned." ”

The emperor smiled and showed an admiring gaze, Xue Mi was very excited in his heart, and was about to continue, when the emperor had already spoken: "Well said, Xue Qing seems to have studied very hard recently, what do you Aiqing think?"

Pan Lian and Zuo Chen looked at each other, and then at Qiuyun and Gantang, but Pan Ji had already interjected: "Your Majesty, is it still limited to civilian officials, the state army and the county soldiers are exempted, they did not participate in the Shi family rebellion." ”

The emperor thought for a while, and suddenly smiled: "I have been in the world for hundreds of years, the status of the monarch and the minister has been decided, one or two gate lord families rebelled, what is there to worry about, since it is pardoned, all of them will be pardoned, and I will not rule the world with murder." ”

"The Emperor Shengming!" The five auxiliary ministers bowed down at the same time and praised in unison, the emperor was slightly stunned, and a trace of displeasure flashed on his face, but when the five auxiliary ministers raised their heads, his expression had returned to normal.

"However, Chen Guojun's should be a different matter," the emperor's tone became stern, the five auxiliary ministers were just relaxed, and they immediately froze, the emperor glanced at them, and his heart was slightly comfortable: "What about this matter, let Pengzhu screen it, those can be used, and those should be taken down, let him screen and deal with it." ”

Pan Lian exchanged glances with Zuo Chen again, and both of them realized that in this way, Peng Zhu's power in Chen Guojun would inevitably increase, and more importantly, the additional officials in the future would inevitably be decided according to Peng Zhu's opinion.

"Your Majesty, officials above the seventh rank are all appointed by the official Cao, so it is inappropriate to hand it over to Pengzhu. Gan Tang was the first to object.

"Yes, Your Majesty, this case cannot be opened. Pan Lian also immediately agreed.

The emperor shook his head: "Inventory of land is the top priority at present, Pengzhu is in Chenguo County, inventory of land, there are actually assassinations, there are rebellions, up and down join forces, hum, they think that I will be scared back, dreaming! I just tell those who are lucky, inventory of land, I will definitely carry it out! The world is full of displaced people, there are many hidden dangers on the border, the imperial treasury is empty, all of this, it falls to the root is the emptiness of the treasury, if you want to improve the treasury, you must check the land, okay, that's it!"

Xue Mi was happy in his heart, and he attached more importance to Liu Han, the emperor's performance was completely in Liu Han's expectations, especially the matter of Chen Guoqing's land inspection, which was completely expected by Liu Han.
