"Therefore, even though the crime of exile is still a crime of the people, it is still a crime of hurting the people! He must compensate the injured people for their losses. If he is unable to bear it, or makes an excuse not to bear it, his family members should bear the burden of compensation." silver!"

When Xu Feng's words fell, the court was silent, the civil servants who were aggressive at first, were like eggplants beaten by frost, and they were silent in an instant, all of them lowered their eyebrows and looked down, for fear of attracting the emperor's attention and attracting thunder and anger.

"My dear friends, do you understand me?"

The emperor looked around at Wenwu and spoke slowly.

"Your Majesty Shengming!"

At this moment, all civil and military officials, no matter what they think in their hearts, are all bowing down and shouting.

The Son of Heaven is also relieved. The most fortunate thing about this matter is that his reaction speed is faster than that of the courtiers. Otherwise, the matter will not be so fermented that it can be suppressed hastily.

As for the official in his early years, his complexion was already pale, and cold sweat was already dripping all over the floor.

"Aiqing's advice is not unreasonable!"

The emperor said slowly: "The law of the former Ming Dynasty has lasted for hundreds of years, and many things seem to be out of date."

"The Great Constant Law is imminent!"

"Leave this matter to the cabinet!"

"Daheng military law also needs to keep pace with the times. The military law department should study it and see where it needs to be improved. Summarize it and hand over a charter!"

"The minister obeys the order!"

Wu Xun of the cabinet and the military law department also took orders accordingly.

"There are two more things."

The Son of Heaven, as always, cut to the chase.

The hearts of the ministers also trembled, for fear that the emperor would come up with some earth-shattering plan!

This was directly suppressed by the emperor just now, and there are really few people who dare to make a big move again.

"The first thing is that the cabinet ministers have been vacant for a long time, and I want to add cabinet ministers."

"According to the usual practice, the imperial court selects cabinet ministers, and the cabinet is ready to hold it on a date."

"The minister obeys the order!"

After Lai Zongdao took the order, the emperor obviously hesitated. All the officials waited for a long time, but the emperor still didn't make a sound.

After a long time, the emperor seemed to have made a decision, and said slowly: "The two emperors Chongzhen and Chongzhen have been in the palace for a long time, and the two tombs have been built. They should enter the mausoleum on an auspicious day. This matter, the Ministry of Rites plans to Submit a charter."

With these words, all kinds of expressions, such as silence, astonishment, trance, disbelief, and shock, appeared on the faces of all civil and military officials at this moment.

The news came too hastily, all of a sudden, all the officials in the court, no one made a sound.

There are those who oppose it, but I don't know where to start the opposition. After all, the constant inheritance of the Ming system is inevitable and destined, and it is impossible to change it.

There are those who celebrate each other with crowns, but in this Daheng court hall, there is already an emperor and a courtier. The sky has changed. Not a soft-hearted person.

The rest are centrists who neither oppose nor support, and naturally they will not say much about these.

Such a scene was beyond the expectation of the emperor. He thought that the court would argue endlessly about it, but he did not expect that it would be such a scene.

"My dear friends, do you have any objections to this matter?"

The officials looked at each other in blank dismay, and in the end, they bowed down one after another, and the sparse voices also evolved into unanimous shouts.

"Your Majesty is wise!"

At such a scene, the emperor's eyes flickered, and he didn't know in his heart whether he should be sad or happy!

Chapter 484 The Two Ends Are Not Human

A turmoil that can cause great changes, in the end, also suddenly arises in the court, and in the end, it also quietly ends in the court.

Those who are unwilling are no longer a minority, but the best opportunity has already been suppressed by the emperor. If there is any further trouble, it will not be the emperor's explanation, but the butcher's knife under the anger of the emperor. This point, the court officials, obviously can see clearly .

Furthermore, for the current court, the other three major events are obviously more attention-grabbing.

The addition of the cabinet ministers, the burial of the former Ming Emperor, and the assessment that is already in progress.

The three, no matter which one, are obviously related to the vital interests of the courtiers.

The addition of cabinet ministers naturally means the re-division of power in the court, and the burial of the former Ming Emperor, which is even more related to a great name!

After all, most of the princes of the current Manchu Dynasty are former ministers of the Ming Dynasty. To some extent, they are also second ministers who violated the traditional Confucian cultural values!

The burial of the former Ming emperor was obviously a fig leaf for the courtiers to have a silent understanding.

Although, this fig leaf is already meaningless...

And this test...

Starting from the Son of Heaven's decision, this assessment seems to be proceeding in an orderly manner, but it involves such a large vacancies for officials, such a large piece of cake, how can the courtiers be indifferent, not to mention, it also involves imperial examinations and non-imperial examinations road battle.

Just as the emperor expected, the storm was suppressed. Although the people were still boiling, in the court, the attention had been completely drawn by these few incidents.

Compared with the court's attention, the emperor's attention is always above the assessment.

As for the burial of the former emperor of the Ming Dynasty, perhaps it was caused by a certain mentality hidden in his heart. The emperor seemed not to pay much attention to it. In the eyes of the courtiers, adding ministers was a big deal, but in the eyes of the emperor, it was obviously not important. no big deal,

Although the cabinet has great power, it is nothing more than an office under him.

Before everything is customized, not to mention the cabinet ministers, even the existence of the cabinet is only in his mind.

What he is concerned about is that with the expansion of the current taxation case, there are more and more official vacancies.

Everything he wants to do can't be done without an extremely powerful governing body.

He used to start anew on the former Ming's ruling structure, and tried his best to break away from the former Ming's ruling structure. It was because the world was in turmoil, and an unstable ruling structure was enough to pose a fatal threat to him. He felt that the former Ming left Governing institutions, unreliable, cannot be trusted.

Moreover, he also needs a stable governing body to support him to do things that the past dynasties never dared to think about.

But now, having survived the catastrophe of the founding of the country, what he wants to do has already taken shape and has been completely made public. In fact, it is inevitable that Daheng's ruling organization will return to normal.

And this major case sweeping the world is to thoroughly wash away the dross left by the previous Ming and implant Daheng's legal principles into the ruling institution of the former Ming Dynasty.

Obviously, under his will, this major case will not end in a short time, and will continue to rectify the administration of officials.

Next year's imperial examination is just around the corner, and there are still a large number of fresh blood that can be added to this ruling structure...

And what he, the emperor, has to do is, as he once thought, whether the world is round or flat in his hands, all in one thought!

"Your Majesty, the one here is the Minke of the Military Academy, and the one here is an official waiting to be transferred from the Ministry of Officials."

Above the Meridian Gate, Wang Wu reported softly to the Son of Heaven.

The emperor nodded, staring at the two distinct teams under the city tower, his brows were slightly frowned, and his expression was clearly displeased.

"Why make it so clear?"

The emperor asked aloud.

Hearing these words, Lai Zongdao was also overwhelmed. Just when he was about to explain, the clamor of quarreling suddenly rang out from under the city tower.

"Just because of you, you are worthy to compete with me?"

I don't know why the conflict arose, but on the side of the scholars, there was a man in a Confucian shirt, but he suddenly got into trouble, and yelled at a man on the side of the Minke:

"You bastard Qiu Ba, don't think that once you know a few words and put on a Confucian shirt like a dog, you really consider yourself a scholar!"

The strong man was furious, rolled up his sleeves and rushed forward:

"What the hell are you talking about?"

"I look like a dog? I'm afraid you don't have to be a dog if you don't look like a dog!"

"When I fought with His Majesty in the South and North, you damn, probably hid at home and pissed your pants. Ask me why, you piss to take care of yourself, what the hell are you, if it wasn't for His Majesty's mercy, You guys are all sinners!"

"Believe it or not, I killed you with one knife, and then killed your whole family!"

"you you……"

The scholar was short of breath, his face was flushed, he pointed at the strong man, and the words came to his lips, but he was too anxious to say anything.

The brawny man spat, with disdain on his face:

"Eggless things..."

"Ha ha ha ha……"

All the scholars of the people suddenly roared with laughter, and the officials and scholars were also very angry.

The sound of quarreling and cursing was transmitted to the top of the city very clearly, and Lai Zongdao was sweating, and his scalp was numb.

"Your Majesty... Your Majesty..."

Lai Zongdao trembled.

The emperor's face was indifferent, and he glanced at the trembling Lai Zongdao: "Can you tell me, what is the lowly Qiu Ba?"

"I led the elite soldiers in the army, fought south and north, and sacrificed countless soldiers to protect the peace of the mountains and rivers, and the world is safe. Countless orphans and widows are waiting for their relatives to return. Why do you become a lowly Qiu Ba?"

"Or do they think that the sword of the previous dynasty can kill the officials of this dynasty?"

"Your Majesty, calm down!"

Lai Zongdao was full of helplessness.

"The country that Qiu Ba conquered cannot tolerate such nobility!"

The emperor snorted coldly and walked away!

Lai Zongdao had a bitter expression on his face. It was really exhausting to be the chief assistant under the founding emperor!

After a while, Lai Zongdao seemed to relieve the pain in his heart. He looked at the official standing beside him, waved his hand, and the official immediately understood and left.

"An eventful autumn, an eventful autumn!"

Lai Zongdao let out a long sigh, and the sadness between his brows became more and more intense.

The founding emperor was extremely powerful, overturning all kinds of old orders, and the courtiers had different ideas and demands!

Only he was caught in the middle, trying his best and painstakingly to maintain this reluctant balance.

But in the end, it was the two sides who did not please each other, and the two sides were not human.

The emperor felt that his will was not firm, and he was swaying at both ends, so he was very wary of him.

Colleagues feel that he is the emperor's answering tube, and the shame of his literati, all kinds of verbal criticism!

"Hey!"

With another long sigh, Lai Zongdao took a step forward, his already old body, at this moment, seemed to be walking slowly, and his aging was becoming more and more obvious.

……

Chapter 485 Fairness and Balance

"Your Majesty, Lord Shoufu has dismissed the scholar who uttered outrageous words, and the scholar of Minke has also been punished, but he has not been dismissed, and the assessment has already begun."

In Qianqing Palace, Wang Wu reported in a low voice.

"How are the scholars feeling?"

the emperor asked.

"The crowd is outraged, so unwilling."

After uttering this answer, Wang Wu subconsciously looked at the Son of Heaven, and as expected, as soon as he said this, the Son of Heaven's expression suddenly became gloomy.

But this gloom was only for a moment, the emperor's expression returned to normal, he waved his hand, and without saying a word, Wang Wu silently stepped aside.

stomping on...

At this moment, the sound of hurried footsteps suddenly sounded in the hall.

"His Majesty!"

Xu Feng strode forward and bowed to the emperor.

"What's the matter?"

The emperor frowned.

"I just got the news that Lin Danhan took Dorgon and the remnants of Azig, and the two have surrendered to Lin Danhan..."

Click!

The pen broke, and the emperor's body seemed to be frozen, and a terrifying depression descended on the hall in an instant.
