Li Peng pondered for a moment, and then said again: "The treacherous officials are not in the court, but in the local area. Your Majesty created a prosperous world, but after all, he advanced very fast. In just a few decades, many heroes from the north and south were surveyed, and many people took the opportunity to seek refuge. I was terrified, but as time went by, these people revealed their ambitions and kept robbing the people's land."
The more Cao Anmin listened, the more gloomy his face became.
Zheng He and Zhan Zhao next to him didn't dare to show their anger, and lowered their heads one after another.
The atmosphere looked very strange.
Li Peng seemed to have noticed something, smiled awkwardly, pointed to the dishes on the table and said, "The dishes are getting cold, the guests should eat first!"
Cao Anmin stood up slowly, took out a token from his waist, handed it to Zhan Zhao next to him and said, "Go to Bao Zheng's mansion and ask him to come see you quickly."
"Obey!" Zhan Zhao took the token and walked out quickly.
Now it was Li Peng's turn to be a little surprised, and asked with trembling lips, "Bao, Bao, is it Master Bao Zheng or Bao?"
"The restaurant's food tastes good. I have some things to deal with. Let me borrow this treasure of yours."
Li Peng's eyes changed when he looked at Cao Anmin again. He was speechless for a long time, and hurriedly cleaned up all the food on the table and retreated to the back kitchen.
Not long after, the sound of galloping war horses came from outside the store, and a fat man with a dark face came outside the store, arranged his clothes with his hands, and quickly walked into the store.
"My minister Bao Zheng sees His Majesty!"
Cao Anmin didn't speak, but pointed to the seat next to him.
Bao Zheng gave a salute and retreated to the opposite side and sat down, with beads of sweat dripping down from his forehead, it could be seen that he had exhausted a lot of energy for traveling all the way.
"Does Ai Qing know how many criminal cases there are in this world in a year in the hands of the Ministry of Criminal Justice?"
Bao Zheng was taken aback for a moment, then quickly sorted out in his brain and replied: "In the whole of last year, there were a total of 350 criminal cases in various places."
"How many homicides are there?"
"About fifteen thousand."
"Then how many cases are related to court officials?"
Bao Zheng froze there immediately, speechless for a long time.After a while, he wiped the sweat from his forehead and replied, "This... I don't have specific statistics."
Cao Anmin sneered and said: "Before I walked out of the palace, I always thought that the world was full of joy and laughter, and that there was peace and prosperity everywhere. But I just realized today that everything is my whimsy. The sky is unpredictable, and the moon is cloudy and sunny. Roundness is like the sun, no matter how big it is, there will be dark places where the light cannot be seen. No matter how clear the court is, there will still be some corrupt officials."
"I'm afraid, it's my negligence, please punish me, Your Majesty!" Bao Zheng prostrated himself at Cao Anmin's feet, his face full of horror.
As the Secretary of the Ministry of Punishments, I am in charge of the world's punishments, but I don't know how many injustices there are in the world, and I don't know whether there are corruptions and violations of the law.
To put it bluntly, he is dereliction of duty.
"This matter has nothing to do with Aiqing. I believe that Aiqing has always been fair and strict. But I just found out today that even if I set up the Metropolitan Procuratorate, I can't monitor all injustices in the world. I am very disappointed!"
Bao Zheng thought about it, and suddenly said: "Your Majesty! I have repeatedly found that the reason why local officials are corrupt and perverting the law is because there are important people in the court who back them up. Uprooting. I believe that if His Majesty wants to eradicate everything, he must unsheath his sword to cut everything off."
"Sharp blade?" Cao Anmin asked.
"I implore Your Majesty to act together with Jinyiwei, the Criminal Ministry and the Metropolitan Procuratorate."
Cao Anmin's expression darkened immediately upon hearing this.
Jin Yiwei has been his direct subordinate since its establishment, and has never been involved in the government.
Now, in order to get rid of traitors and let them do things independently of me, I don't know why I feel a little uneasy.
But soon, he was relieved again.
He stepped forward and helped Bao Zheng up and said: "Okay, I will issue an edict immediately, and the three divisions will work together, no matter in the local area or in the court, I will never let a treacherous minister go, and I will never wrong a good person, understand? ?”
"The minister takes orders!" Bao Zheng was shocked, and the flames of war ignited in his heart.
It seems that the tiger-head guillotine that I have been idle for a long time can come in handy.
Chapter 975 Mi's Crisis Is Coming
In the Zixia Palace, there is laughter, singing and dancing.
As the richest Mi clan in Cao Anmin's harem, Mi Huan likes to be lively the most.Every festival is often a big feast, rewarding money to all the eunuchs in the palace.
Now that the Qixi Festival is just around the corner, and just as Mi Zhu enters the mansion, Mi Huan instructs the imperial chef to prepare wine and dishes to entertain Mi Zhu.
"Brother hasn't entered the palace for a long time, don't you miss my little sister?"
Mi Zhu is in a high position, and his words and deeds are full of the demeanor of an important minister.
"Little sister is in the harem, and elder brother, as a foreign minister, I will definitely be criticized by outsiders if I go in and out frequently."
Mi Huan muttered: "What criticism, you are my elder brother! Isn't it okay for elder brother and younger sister to meet?"
Mi Zhu shook his head helplessly, his brows and eyes were full of doting.Although my younger sister is already thirty, to him, she still seems to be that young girl.
"Brother, where did the second brother go? I haven't seen him enter the palace for a long time."
Mi Zhu seemed a little flustered, rolled his eyes, and said with a smile: "Your second brother doesn't like to enter the court, you know that too."
Mi Huan sighed and said, "Second brother's temperament is really different from that of elder brother. Sometimes, even my younger sister, I can't see through him."
Mi Zhu smiled and said no more.
After a while, Mi Zhu suddenly thought of something and asked, "Where's Feng'er?"
Speaking of his son, the smile on Mi Zhu's face disappeared quite a bit.
As a concubine, in addition to fighting for favor, she is also fighting for the foundation of the country.
Unfortunately, as Cao Anmin's concubines, even though they were all beautiful, it was difficult to shake the relationship between Cao Anmin and Chen Yan.In addition, the prince Cao Sheng is now participating in the political affairs of the court, and his methods are becoming more and more proficient. Both the courtiers and the people of the world believe that he must be a suitable successor in the future.
It's a pity that my son is so disappointing.
Not only can't compare with the prince, even the other princes can't compare.He didn't learn the good things about the Mi clan, but he learned a lot about the bad things of those dudes.
"I'm in the palace, and I'm probably having fun there again. Forget about mentioning him, I will get angry if I mention him."
When Mi Zhu heard this, he lost all confidence.
For some reason, Mi Zhu always feels a little flustered in his heart these days, as if crises are always around him.
Now my only hope is Cao Feng.
If Cao Feng can be successful, he will definitely entrust the Mi family to help him with all his strength, but now it seems that this only big tree seems a little unstable.
"Feng'er is not young anymore, it looks like it's time to find him a marriage to stabilize his mind."
