back to ancient times to be emperor

Chapter 521

The night passed like water, but Lu Chengqi didn't sleep well, because he had something on his mind.Early in the morning, he woke up by himself, and under the service of the maid, he changed into a dragon robe, ready to go to court.

As usual, after eating breakfast, Maoshi will arrive.Amid the sound of playing music, Lu Chengqi slowly passed all the civil and military officials who were lined up, and climbed onto the high dragon chair.

"See Your Majesty!"

As soon as the music stopped, all the civil and military officials would sing the Tao.

"Masters are welcome." Lu Chengxun said in a slow but energetic voice. "If there is something to play, let's go back to the court if there is nothing to do."

As soon as his words fell, someone came out and said: "Your Majesty, I have a book to play!"

Lu Chengqi took a look, it turned out to be He Lizeng, the supervisory censor. "The Yushitai has been silent for so long, is it going to show up again?" A thought flashed in Lu Chengqi's mind, and he said lightly: "Quick!"

The congratulatory gift once held the court wat, bowed and said: "Your Majesty, there is news from Yingtian Mansion that a scholar smashed the Yamen of Yingtian Mansion and has been detained by Yingtian Mansion Yin."

Lu Chengqi was startled, and said calmly, "What's the matter?"

"Reporting to Your Majesty, the scholars were dissatisfied with the new policy, and they had jointly signed a letter to Yingtianfu Yamen. However, Yingtianfu Yin Ke Yuhui not only refused, but reprimanded them for not focusing on studying. These scholars did not listen to the advice and entered the city over the wall that night. , smashed the Yingtian government office..."

Lu Chengqi looked at He Lizeng coldly, knowing exactly who he was bewitched by.Judging from this matter, it is already very clear that there must be someone deliberately promoting the development of the whole matter in order to achieve the purpose of abolishing the ten-rank official system.Otherwise, how could He Lizeng get the news one step faster than the supervisory department?And the person behind this scene must also be a person with high authority, who is it?Lu Chengqi couldn't tell for the time being, but as long as he followed the clues and peeled off the cocoons, he would definitely be able to find this person out.

Lu Chengqi glanced at the civil and military officials below with different expressions, and said slowly: "What do you think about this matter?"

At this time, Zuo Admonisher Yun Feng jumped out again: "Your Majesty, Ying Tianfu Yin Ke's cypress corpse is a vegetarian meal, and he should be relegated to the frontier!"

Luo Yun, the servant of the Criminal Department, came out and said: "Doctor Yun's words are wrong. This matter is not the fault of Ke Fu Yin. Your Majesty has made it clear that anyone who writes a new policy will not be accepted. Ying Tianfu scholars do not read books and newspapers. It is the first crime to write a joint letter based on likes and dislikes. The second crime is that as a scholar, you should be at ease to prepare for the autumn exam, but how bad it is to smash the yamen at night? Your Majesty, this matter should be severely punished. It is justifiable to cut his fame!"

After all, it was the officials of the Ministry of Punishment who understood the law, and Lu Chengqi did not expect Luo Yun to come out and say this.In fact, even he has forgotten how many verbal orders he has issued, and there have been many inconsistencies.Hearing that someone was trying to smooth things over for him, Lu Chengqi quickly said: "Luo Shilang's words are reasonable. Scholars are scholars. It's a great crime to insult gentlemen like this. Luo Shilang, tell me, according to "The Great Master" "Shun Law", how should this matter be handled?"

Luo Yun held the court wat and said: "Article 250 of the "Dashun Law", whoever smashes the yamen regardless of official authority will be sentenced to twenty sticks, three years in prison, and paraded in the streets."

After all, he is a professional, and he can even speak clearly about which one.Lu Chengqi nodded and said, "The sentencing is acceptable, and I have nothing to say..."

Before finishing speaking, another inspector censor, Huangfu Dan, came out and said: "Your Majesty, this matter must not be handled like this. If not, the hearts of scholars in the world will no longer be attached!"

Lu Chengqi frowned and said: "My new policy is based on the overall situation. If these scholars take care of themselves, why should I use them as officials? Even if they are officials, they are just vegetarian meals, and they don't know how to think about the people!"

Huangfu Dan strongly remonstrated: "Your Majesty's move is too tough. Scholars in the world already have a lot of complaints. If this matter is handled in this way, how can the scholars in the world not be dissatisfied? There are many people in the world who say what they say, and they know right from wrong. People. Your Majesty's move is inappropriate."

Lu Chengqi was even more disdainful, and said: "Such a scholar, what use do I want?"

As soon as this sentence came out, everyone was shocked.To be honest, in the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty, which one did not do things step by step, and did they ever have their own way of doing things?In China, mavericks always appear outstanding.The psychological quality is poor, and I can't even stand the worldly eyes.Over time, people in the world have distorted this idea of ​​conforming to the herd and regarded it as part of the golden mean.Moderation, how can it be a mediocre thought?What it pays attention to is impartiality and mediocrity, which means not deviating from life, not changing one's goals and ideas.If you even deny yourself, how can you achieve great things?
It was precisely because of this that Lu Chengqi hated these officials who were dawdling around and waiting to die, so he issued an order to the Ministry of Officials to gradually cut off these rice-eating worms.In this way, the organization is streamlined and the phenomenon of redundant officials is greatly reduced.Coupled with the promulgation of the ten-rank official system, the officials who were dawdling in the past have to work hard, otherwise the black hat on their heads may be gone one day.

Seeing that all the civil and military officials in the court were discussing a lot, Lu Chengqi said slowly: "If the law is not followed, the greater disaster will be. This is how this matter is handled, don't discuss it again!"

After the final decision was made, the whole court felt sad.In fact, everyone is well aware of the strength of the little emperor.It's just a fluke, and I want to fight again.Even if it fails, these civil servants still have connections. As long as they obey and obey, they can achieve their goals if they report worries but not good news.It's just that the little emperor has the Supervision Department in his hands, and he can't hide any major events in this world from him!
The civil servant who failed to make a plan and made a plan was still thinking about how to turn the situation around, but Lu Chengqi said indifferently: "If there is nothing important, then retreat to the court."

The civil servants who failed to make trouble were silent.Lu Chengqi waited for a long time before motioning for Gao Hao.Gao Hao also understood, and said in a duck voice: "Retire!"

The civil and military officials said in a deep voice: "Respectfully send off Your Majesty, Your Majesty Sheng An..."

Lu Chengqi walked in the front, followed by Gao Gao and four strong servants, surrounded by court ladies such as Xianshao envoy and deputy envoy Xianshao playing music.It wasn't until Lu Chengqi left the Daqing Palace that the civil and military officials paced and walked outside the palace.

"Doctor Yun, why do you think His Majesty is so arbitrary?" Doctor You Jianyi followed Yun Feng and asked in a low voice.

Yun Feng sighed and said: "Your Majesty is young, so it is normal. I hope he can wake up as soon as possible. The ten-rank official system is not the blessing of Dashun!"

Qian Zongfang said worriedly: "Scholars in the world are already making such a fuss. Is Your Majesty really confident?"

"Who can fathom what His Majesty is thinking? I will do my best and obey the destiny..." Yun Feng looked at the sky outside the palace and said with some concern.
