Chapter 487: The Truth, Severely Punished!

After the rest of his life, he learned that the emperor was not as desperate as he imagined, Sun Mingquan's psychological defense line was not broken, and he honestly explained everything he knew, according to his confession, King Xiayang personally led the Yulin Army to surround the Shangshu Mansion of the military department and arrest Wu Yuanshan, but what they didn't expect was that the black hand behind the scenes was not him, no, it is correct to say that the black hand behind the scenes was not only him, but also Hube Shangshu Cui Zhenguo, university scholar Wan Changqing, and more than a dozen civil and military officials, they were all dissatisfied with what the empress did, After Lü Shuren was investigated, they gathered this time to make trouble through Sun Mingquan's dissatisfaction with Yang Wanli, just to let the empress know their importance.

But what they didn't expect was that they hadn't found the most suitable opportunity to publicize the Lu family's collective suicide by poisoning, and the emperor was the first to get off the imperial list, and the style of the iron-armored guard was also greatly unexpected to them, forcing them to make a decision to kill people in a hurry, but who would have thought that all this was arranged by the emperor and queen and Xiayang Wang and others long ago.

When Wu Yuanshan couldn't bear to explain one by one, Tianshu and Yang Peng also had results, first of all, Yang Peng, through the autopsy of the Nether Secret Guard, it was determined that Lu Shuren's family was poisoned before and after last night's dinner, the poison was mixed in the food, it can be determined that they did not commit suicide, but poisoned and killed, and then the iron-armored guard went through torture, first learned from the mouth of the jailer that all the people on duty in prison last night were drugged and did not wake up until this morning, knowing that the Lu family committed suicide, They were afraid of pursuing responsibility, so they did not dare to say it, and the people guarding outside the prison of the Criminal Department, in the absence of anyone entering and leaving, they could not go in and check, which caused the situation that Lu Shuren's family was poisoned and no one was aware of, through the identification of the jailer, the iron-armored guard found a few people who sent dinner to them and the prisoners, basically did not use much torture, they honestly explained that it was ordered by the people above to do it, layer by layer of investigation, and finally locked Sun Mingquan, and Chu Caizheng is indeed innocent.

The things they found were completely consistent with the explanations of Sun Mingquan and Wu Yuanshan, this matter was very involved, the emperor was furious, and ordered not to let any of them go, the Yulin Army and the Imperial City Army were dispatched at the same time, before dark, all the relevant personnel were arrested, the collision of the power of the subject and the power of the monarch once again ended in a fiasco of the power of the subject, the early dynasty specially convened by the Sun was raised, the emperor and the empress sat on the dragon chair together, all the officials involved in the case knelt on the main hall, and Yin Cone was ordered to declare the will.

"Fengtian Fortune, Emperor Edict, former military department Shangshu Wu Yuanshan, Hubu Shangshu Cui Zhenguo, university scholar Wan Changqing, imperial history..."

A long list of official positions and names followed, one by one against the people kneeling in the hall, and the civil and military officials standing on both sides did not bow their heads in silence: "Dozens of officials are suspected of poisoning hundreds of Lu families, framing the chief judge Yang Wanli, and falling into injustice, after verification is true, they themselves all confessed, such a big disobedience, must be severely punished, the above people, all of them, immediately executed, no mistake, I admire this!" 

The so-called three races, that is, the father family, the mother family, and the wife family, are not widely involved, and the general emperor is rarely so harsh, everyone in the Jinluan Hall knows that the emperor is really moving with them this time, if there is a next time, I am afraid that it will be more than just the three families.

"Your Majesty..."

The people kneeling on the ground wept bitterly on the spot, and Wu Yuanshan collapsed and shouted: "The criminal minister knows the mistake and does not dare to ask for mercy, but the family of the criminal minister is innocent, please ask His Majesty to spare them for death."

"Your Majesty Kaien!"

Seeing this, others also kowtowed and begged for mercy, when the Yulin Army broke into the palace, they knew that they would definitely die, but they never dreamed that the consequences were even more serious than they thought, destroying the three races was equivalent to completely cutting down the grass and removing the roots, and at this moment, they finally realized that the supremacy of the monarchy.

"Where is the Great General in front of the palace?"

In the face of their pleas for mercy, Pei Yuanxian did not have the slightest emotion, he no longer wanted to play with these courtiers, since they wanted to pretend to be stupid, he let them see a little more clearly, how the power of the monarch cannot be encroached upon!

"The end is coming!"

The general in armor came from outside the hall, bowed and respectfully obeyed the order, and Pei Yuanxian said in a condensed voice: "Take it down, and behead them with their blood relatives of the three clans at noon!"

"Yes."

"Your Majesty spare your life, Your Majesty..." "Your Majesty, the criminal minister knows that he is wrong, Your Majesty..."

"Your Majesty..."

The great general in front of the palace waved his hand, no matter how excited they struggled, how loudly begging for mercy, they were still forcibly dragged out, and the remaining civil and military officials in the Jin Luan Hall were all terrified, and the emperor's ruthlessness deeply shocked them.

"Yang Aiqing, from today onwards, you will succeed you as Shangshu of the Criminal Department."

As if he hadn't seen the miserable faces of the ministers at all, Pei Yuanxian ordered in a deep voice.

"The courtiers will bow down to thank the emperor!"

Yang Wanli, who was named, knelt down on one knee with his fist in his hands, and Pei Yuanxian nodded: "All matters of the Criminal Department have been handed over to you, and it is imperative to restore its due order in the shortest possible time." 

Many officials of the Criminal Department are implicated this time, and it is undoubtedly about to change blood, and some of them are busy next.

"Wei Chen obeys the order."

From beginning to end, even if he won the trust of the emperor, Yang Wanli's attitude was respectful, which should be the correct way to coexist between the power of the monarch and the power of the subjects.

"Jing Shilang, you will temporarily take over the position of Shangshu of the Military Department."

The line of sight flowed, and finally fell on Jing Xiran's body, and Pei Yuanxian continued to appoint.

"Wei Chen obeys the order."

Yang Wanli returned to the column, Jing Xiran stood up, everyone present felt that the emperor clearly said that it was temporary, in fact, the military department was already Jing Xiran's bag, but Jing Xiran knew better than anyone that he was really only temporary, the real military department Shangshu, at this time was still in the Wei Kingdom, and he himself preferred to lead troops to conquest than staying in the military department to preside over logistics.

Sure enough, all of them were his own people!

Although the hundred officials did not dare to make a sound, there were still some complaints in their hearts, but...

"Chu Shilang of the former Criminal Department was immediately transferred to the Hanlin Academy as a scholar."

In the next second, Pei Yuanxian's gaze fell directly on Chu Caizheng's body, and the officials were not surprised, they thought that the emperor was likely to replace all the Manchu dynasty civilization and military forces with his own people one after another, wasn't it like this?

"Yes."

I also didn't expect that I actually had a share, Chu Cai was a little slower before he came out, such a big thing happened in the Criminal Department, although he did not participate, there was also a dereliction of duty in supervision, I thought that even if I kept Wusha, I would be demoted, but I didn't expect ... The emperor is really not a ruthless person, as long as they are loyal and dedicated to the people, he will not fail them.

"Do you think that you will only arrange your own people for important official positions?"

Hube Shangshu and other idle positions Pei Yuanxian did not arrange again, phoenix eyes swept over the hundreds of officials below, and his slender and tall body slowly stood up.

"Don't you dare!"

The hundred officials immediately knelt down, Pei Yuanxian almost undetectable pouted, did not let them flat, did not get angry, but carried his hands slowly pacing: "Xu has been the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty since he was ten years old, most of you present can be said to be the auxiliary ministers of Xuan, back then Xia Guo was just a second-rate small country that looked up to people, at that time, we all held our breath with one heart, all our efforts went to the same place, in just over ten years, Xia Guo is already one of the five great powers, and Xu can proudly say that this is the merit of the leadership of Xu and Xia Yang King, but Xu can't help but admit that this is indispensable for your credit, relying on only one person, even if the ability is strong, it is impossible to achieve this point, but this time when I came back, I found that some people seemed to have been left behindForgot your original intention, and some people, even forgot who the person sitting on the dragon chair was, when you blindly thought that you would only reuse your own people, have you ever thought that you have already regarded yourself as an outsider? If you are not convinced, you can recommend yourself, as long as you can prove that your ability is stronger than that of Shangshu Yang Wanli of the Criminal Department or Shangshu Xiang Guozheng of the Ministry of Rites, let them give way to you immediately, do you dare? Do you have that confidence? If not, give it to Xun honestly, less messy tricks, the power of subjects is always under the power of the monarchy, this is an immutable law, if there are still people who dare to challenge the monarchy, the ugly words can be said first, what awaits you is not just the destruction of the three races. 

Pei Yuanxian's voice did not fluctuate too much, and his tone was not deliberately strengthened, but every word he said clearly reached the ears of everyone present, hitting their souls like a daigo empowerment, yes, since when did they all care about the rights in their hands, forgetting why they worked hard in the first place? The blood sea feud between the Xia Kingdom and the Qin Kingdom has not been rewarded, but it has only reached the same height as the Qin Kingdom, and they have been lost? Aren't the rights of subordinates granted by the king? How could they be delusional to compete with the power of the monarchy? Who is appointed and what official position, that is the right of the emperor, what qualifications do they have to complain? Even if those people are incompetent, and there is the supervision of the prime minister, the impeachment of the imperial history, what are they nervous about?

At this moment, many people realized the real problem of the problem, they did not really resist the monarchy, and no one wanted to rebel, but because the emperor suddenly returned and brought back the queen and a group of people with outstanding abilities, they were confused for a while and lost their way.

"Your Majesty, the minister is guilty!"

"Convict the ministers!"

Under the leadership of an old minister, the Manchu Dynasty Wen Wu all choked and crouched, they were wrong, the emperor is still the emperor, but they are no longer the same as they used to be, and the emperor's words completely woke them up.

"I hope you really know that you are wrong, and I don't want to destroy your nine clans one by one."

Pei Yuanxi, who was standing at a high place, swept his eyes and slowly walked back to sit down.

"Long live my emperor, long live long live!"

Hundreds of officials shouted long live in unison, and Pei Yuanxian who was sitting on the dragon chair looked at each other, and a smile bloomed on his lips, and they also hoped that after this incident, everything would return to the way they were before they did not return, killing the ministers who had been meritorious one by one was not what they wanted, only if the king was of the same heart, the people could usher in a truly good day.

"Flatten."

"Thank you Emperor!"

After the officials thanked each other, Shen Liang, who had not spoken from beginning to end, said slowly: "This palace does not want to argue with you about whether you should sit here, you can be dissatisfied with this palace, and you can even resent this palace in your heart, but please remember that any official exists because of the world and the people, if you are blindly dissatisfied with this palace, forget your duty, and cause the people to suffer, that hongu doesn't mind letting you taste the methods of the hongu. 

Counting the time, it would not be long before they would receive complete information about him, and then they would assess whether they wanted to continue against him, and if so, he did not want to use those means on them.

"Wait for death!"

The ministers who had already repented knelt down again, and Pei Yuanxian led Shen Liang to stand up: "Retreat from the dynasty."

"Congratulations to Your Majesty, congratulations to the Lord Monarch!"

All the officials leaned over in unison, and the emperor and empress left hand in hand.
