Sun Jiadi looked at Sun Chuwen in front of him, and couldn't help crying. No one can maintain a normal state of mind when his life is threatened, and Sun Jiadi is like this now.

"Brother, I also know what you said just now, but the guy surnamed Cui is the first one after the founding of the country! No matter what dynasty or generation it is, the first corruption case after the founding of the country is nothing trivial, no Daxing Prison is simply impossible, I am his father-in-law, if I am not good, I will die!"

Sun Jia's first expression was despair.

He has also read history books and knows how to deal with such cases in history.

After Zhu Yuanzhang established the Ming Dynasty in the Ming Dynasty, many prisons were established.

Whether it is the Hu Weiyong case or the Kongyin case, none of them is a minor case.

Which case is not head rolling?Which case is not a river of blood from being killed?
In the end, he felt that the imperial court's departments were not good enough, so he even formed Jinyiwei.

Thinking of these things, Sun Jiadi's heart trembled.

If it was placed in Zhu Yuanzhang's hands, given the relationship between him and Cui Xinghe, it would be easy to be chopped up directly, and it would be a peeling day lily if it was not good enough.

Although Sun Jie hadn't done anything drastic in recent years, don't forget, he is the emperor right away, who can compare with the power in his hands?
Even if he wanted to use other methods to deal with this case, it was just a matter of one sentence.That is to say, Sun Jie can handle this case as he wants.Handle it however you want.

The most uncomfortable thing in the world is that you can't control your own life.

Now that Sun Jie asked Chen Hu to investigate the case, he directly abandoned the court's Ministry of Punishment and Law Hall. Who knows if Chen Hu will be Mao Xiang in history, or the first commander of Jinyiwei.

Sun Jiadi did not dare to take the risk.

"You don't need to worry about this matter at all, our Majesty is not such a person!"

Sun Chuwen helped Sun Jiadi up.

But Sun Jiadi didn't seem relieved at all, sitting beside him, weeping and talking about his difficulties.

Sun Chuwen kept saying good things, and finally had to agree, and went to Sun Jie's place tomorrow to find out.

At dawn the next day, Sun Chuwen went to the palace.

Last night, Sun Jie moved into the palace. Logically speaking, there are various ceremonies required for entering the palace, but they were cancelled.

According to Sun Jie's words, now that the court has such a serious problem, how can it have the face to hold a ceremony?
In the imperial study room, Sun Jie looked at Sun Chuwen who was sitting opposite him, and asked with a smile, "Come here today, what's the matter?"

"Your Majesty, last night, Sun Jiadi came to look for my minister!"

Sun Chuwen hesitated to say this.

Sun Jie was taken aback for a moment, and then said, "Why did he ask you? Could it be that there is something I don't know about?"

"No, Your Majesty, no!"

Sun Chuwen immediately panicked, afraid that Sun Jie would misinterpret his meaning, and quickly explained: "Your Majesty, the thing is like this. Last night, when he came to look for the minister, the main problem was that he was afraid that this rascal, Cui Xinghe, would stalk and bite me indiscriminately." .”

Sun Chuwen told what happened last night in detail.

"Sun Jiadi is an honest man. There is no doubt about it. Did he come here because he was afraid that I would go to prison? He meant that I was a tyrant? Or would he kill people indiscriminately?!"

Sun Jie asked directly with a blank face.

Sun Chuwen stopped talking for a while.

"As I said before, we will discuss the matter as it stands. I will not prosper prisons, nor will I wrong good people. I have completely canceled the bad habit of sitting. As long as in the follow-up investigation, he does not have any financial or interest-related conflicts with Cui Xinghe." He doesn't have any problems with the relationship, after you go back, tell him about it, and say that I said it myself!"

Sun Jie's voice was very calm.

The stone in Sun Chuwen's heart finally fell to the ground.

Isn't this asking about his own future?

Sun Chuwen was also a little worried, and also afraid that this matter would spread to himself.

Now that Sun Jie said this, he wasn't so flustered anymore.

Why didn't Sun Jie pass the news to the outside through Sun Chuwen?

Sometimes, indiscriminate killing does not make the courtiers standardize their work, but makes them frightened.

Living in fear for a long time will cause problems.

Nowadays, there is a lot of waste to be done in the world, and their sense of responsibility or initiative cannot be affected by a trivial matter.

Those who have merit will be rewarded, and those who have done wrong will be punished.

This time Sun Jie went out in person and almost wiped out all the officials, big and small, in Zhejiang.

To put it bluntly, this is more vigorous than Zhu Yuanzhang in history.

Zhu Yuanzhang valued it very much, but he never ended up in person.

Sun Jie went off in person, just to convey a concept to the outside world, I want to do something special.

In the era of imperial power, even a small move by the emperor could even cause turmoil, let alone Sun Jie's move.

After Sun Chuwen left, Sun Jie had someone call Sun Chuanting over.

Looking at Sun Chuanting standing in front of him, Sun Jie said: "Go and make arrangements for the Ministry of Punishment, the Senate, the Dafa Hall, the Dalu Hall and other departments to form a joint investigation team to conduct a more in-depth investigation of Cui Xinghe's matter. .

At the same time, the matter was issued in the form of a document, and at the same time, it was stipulated that if there were similar crimes in the future, this time would be the priority!No changes shall be made and no deviations shall be made. "

Sun Chuanting was a little surprised, and doubts began to spread on his face.

"Your Majesty, is this really the case?" Sun Chuanting still asked in disbelief.

According to history, Sun Jie has already led people there in person, so this matter should be supervised by Sun Jie himself. This kind of thing often means that the emperor is going to centralize power.

This is very similar to Zhu Yuanzhang in history, and now he suddenly handed over this matter to his courtiers, which is really confusing.

Sun Jie didn't explain so much, some things don't need to be explained too clearly.

"By the way, you can make statistics in the court again, and count those hard-working officials. After a few years, you will be awarded and announced at the same time!"

Sun Jie said.

The way to govern is to reconcile yin and yang, to give a stick and then a sweet date.

The feudal dynasty is different from the modern one, especially at the beginning of the founding of the country, the lives of officials are often linked to the mood of the emperor.

Now that deterrence is established, the sweet dates must be given to those officials who work hard.

Sun Chuanting had a lot of doubts in his heart, but he still seriously followed what Sun Jie said.

When these documents spread throughout the court, the officials in the court all showed disbelief.

They had never seen such an emperor before, and there are so many in the history books, there are countless severe punishments such as building big prisons, family punishment, and sitting in a row.

It was as if Sun Jie took a knife and slashed at their necks, but just before he hit them, he turned the blade and lightly tapped them with the back of the knife.

This life-and-death rotation is shocking.

Fortunately, those normal and clean officials recovered within a short period of time.

The establishment of the joint investigation team was very fast, and it was completed within three days.

The hosts are Sun Chuanting and Yang Lin, one in front and one in the other.

Yang Lin was born in Qin Shang, and he followed Sun Jie a long time ago.

Now he is the minister of the Ministry of punishment and the director of the Wen Senate. He has outstanding ability and integrity, and has great prestige among Shaanxi officials.

The two of them sat in the cell, and Cui Xinghe came for interrogation.

Looking at Cui Xinghe who was kneeling in front of him, Yang Lin's heart was full of emotion.

He was very impressed with this Cui Xinghe, this kid was very famous in the whole Daqin University at that time.

I thought he could carry the banner, but I didn't expect this to be the result.

"Cui Xinghe, tell me, tell me everything you know!"

Yang Lin said.

Cui Xinghe looked at Yang Lin without any fear on his face, but looked at him with a very playful expression.

Yang Lin was slightly angry, "Do you know who you are now? You still don't plead guilty?!"

"Haha, why am I guilty?!"

Cui Xinghe laughed wildly, with an unconvinced look on his face.

"Crazy, you are crazy!"

Yang Lin patted the table, looking at Cui Xinghe who was so lawless, he felt angry.

"My lord, I'm not crazy, I'm just being worthless for you!" Cui Xinghe stood up, and even the soldiers around him couldn't make him kneel completely.

He raised his head and looked at Yang Lin, his voice was a little louder than before, "My lord, tell me, you have worked hard with His Majesty for so many years, and have done a lot of things, but why is your official position just a member of the Senate Council?" Minister?

Yes, the Wen Senate is the top yamen in my dynasty, but there are not only adults in it.In terms of seniority, your lordship is the deepest among the ministers of the Council of Civil Affairs, and in terms of merit, your lordship is not small in the Council of Culture, but after so many years, why is your lord just a council minister?Why not the Prime Minister? ! "

"Shut up!"

Yang Lin slapped the table suddenly, and shouted loudly: "You are still a student of Daqin University, that's what you think? I am not a famous family, nor a Jinshi. It is His Majesty's value to be able to reach this level. You are talking nonsense here. , what is the intention?!"

Sun Chuanting next to him was extremely gloomy.

I was flustered by the rumors in the market before, but now I am told that in person, I feel uncomfortable.

"Ribberish, nonsense, what do you think being an official is for? This is not Vanity Fair, this is not Ming Dynasty. If you think about these things, then you are really living in the stomach of a dog!"

Yang Lin stood up straight away, pointing at Cui Xinghe's nose and cursing.

No matter what Yang Lin thought in his heart before, at this time, he couldn't show anything.

The things here cannot be concealed. If Sun Jie finds out, what will happen?

Besides, Yang Lin was a very peaceful person and never had any other thoughts.

After so many years of hard work, how could he be like Cui Xinghe?

"At this point, I don't want to hide it anymore. Master Sun, you are just a minister of the Ming Dynasty. According to your ability, you are not much better than Master Yang, and according to your qualifications, you are not as good as Master Yang. But how can you still do it?" To be the Prime Minister? Isn't this a big joke?!"

Looking from Cui Xinghe to Sun Chuanting, his words were full of sarcasm.

Having become like this, Cui Xinghe simply stopped hiding it and vented his unhappiness.

"Humph!"

Sun Chuanting flicked his sleeves and left directly.

Judging from this posture, there is no result of the interrogation at all.

Yang Lin hurriedly followed behind Sun Chuanting and walked out.

After everyone left, Chen Hu led the people into the cell in person.

Sun Jie ordered Chen Hu to watch Cui Xinghe.

One is to prevent escape, the other is to prevent collusion, and the third is to prevent suicide.

While the case has not been revealed, Cui Xinghe can't have an accident.

The influence of Cui Xinghe cannot affect the footsteps of the empire. Zheng Chenggong has brought his fleet to the waters of Luzon.

Luzon, this is a place that traded with the mainland a long time ago.

Since the Song Dynasty, trade activities here have been frequent.

This place is located on the coast of the South China Sea. If it can be occupied here, it can radiate to the southeast Asian waters to the west.

If Annan and other places are occupied in the future, these two places will be like pincers, holding the sea surface tightly, and no enemy can easily enter the South China Sea.

It had just rained in the vast sea, and the sky and the earth were covered with mist. Zheng Chenggong stood on the deck of a huge lucky boat, looking at the sea ahead.

His face was full of blood and excitement.

The same is true for the soldiers behind them. Although they are not Sun Jie's soldiers, they are still in high spirits.

"Brothers, as long as we take Luzon Island, we can straighten our backs when we go back. At that time, all of you can be incorporated into His Majesty's army!"

Zheng Chenggong turned around and looked at the soldiers behind him.

His uncle Zheng Zhibao stood behind him, a trace of worry flashed across his excited face.

These soldiers shouted various slogans excitedly.

Seeing that the morale was almost the same, Zheng Chenggong gave the order to charge.

Taking advantage of this time, Zheng Zhibao pulled Zheng Chenggong aside.

For the victory of this battle, Zheng Zhilong sent his younger brother out to hold the battle.

"Do you still remember what big brother said before we set off?!"

Zheng Zhibao said.

"I still remember!" Zheng Chenggong replied.

"But, isn't this too cruel?!" Zheng Chenggong looked embarrassed.

"Cruel? Things in this world are like this. If you don't want to be cruel, our Zheng family has long since disappeared. We have just gained a foothold in the imperial court. We know about things in Zhejiang, right? Cui Xinghe is a student of His Majesty, and he is also related to him by marriage. If your Majesty says to arrest, what is our Zheng family? If you are not careful, you will be in the abyss!"

Zheng Zhibao's face was serious, and he tried to persuade him.

Before setting off, Zheng Zhilong told Zheng Zhilong that when attacking Luzon, one cannot win a big victory or fail. Big loss.

At that time, Zheng Chenggong didn't understand, so he asked him why.

Zheng Zhilong gave such an explanation.

The soldiers and horses in your hands are your own soldiers and horses. You are the one who surrendered now. Your Majesty is not easy to deal with your soldiers. If you recruit them all without any punishment, how can you appease His Majesty's original soldiers and horses?After all, you have been against His Majesty for many years.

If you and your soldiers are punished, where will His Majesty's prestige go?Could it be, let the world say that His Majesty is a villain who turns his face and denies others?
Your Majesty must deal with the soldiers and horses in your hands, but he cannot explain it himself, so he can only let you do it.This is not only a certificate of nomination, but also a guarantee for our family in the future.

Your Majesty is a great emperor, and no army beyond his control is allowed. Therefore, the army in your hands must be eliminated.

Our Zheng family has no foundation in the court, and has no connection with former Ming officials or Shaanxi officials, so we must be careful in doing things.
