Great Wei scholar

"Brother Xu, have fun."

"Brother, come out of the palace later and come to drink with us."

"Hahahaha, yes, yes, come and drink."

Everyone spoke, admiring Xu Qingxiao's might and strength, and at the same time invited Xu Qingxiao to their house for a drink.

Xu Qingxiao didn't speak, just nodded towards them and walked into the palace.

The eunuch who led the way kept his head down. Zhang Jing's face was gloomy, a little unsightly, but Xu Qingxiao looked calm.

In the palace, everything seemed very quiet, and the previous vision completely dissipated.

The guards in the two rows all looked at Xu Qingxiao strangely.

In the end, the two waited outside the hall.

"Xuan! Zhang Jing, Minister of the Criminal Department, and Xu Qingxiao, head of the Criminal Department, enter the palace."

Following the eunuch's voice, Xu Qingxiao and Zhang Jing walked up the stairs, but Zhang Jing obviously quickened his pace, walked directly into the hall, then knelt on the ground, saying in an extremely sad voice.

"His Majesty!"

"Xu Qingxiao is going to rebel! He made a big fuss in the Ministry of Punishment, causing the Ministry of Punishment to be ridiculed by the people of the world. He even punished all the officials above the head of the Ministry of Punishment. The method was cruel. If it hadn't been for the early decree of His Majesty, I am afraid that the old minister will die here."

"Your Majesty, the old minister spends his whole life with respect to his career, not to mention..."

As soon as he entered the main hall, Zhang Jing began to complain and reprimand Xu Qingxiao. His eyes were sad and he seemed extremely wronged.

But before he finished speaking, the empress' voice sounded.

"To shut up!"

The voice was indifferent, but the two words revealed a terrifying domineering arrogance.

The temperature in the main hall instantly cooled down, Zhang Jing didn't dare to speak, and Xu Qingxiao just worshiped the empress, and then remained silent.

At this moment, the voice of the eunuch outside the palace sounded.

"Your Majesty, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, Minister of the Ministry of Rites, Minister of the Ministry of Industry, Minister of the Ministry of Rites, and Minister of the Ministry of War, please see me outside the palace."

As the voice sounded, the empress quickly answered.

"Let them wait outside the temple without speaking."

The empress is very domineering, she knows what the purpose of the six ministers is to quarrel, but today she just needs them to stand outside the hall and listen, and she is not allowed to speak.

"According to the order."

The eunuch opened his mouth, and in less than a quarter of an hour, the five ministers hurriedly came outside the hall, but they both knew that they couldn't speak at this time, so they could only wait obediently.

"absurd!"

"absurd!"

"absurd!"

After the six ministers have arrived.

On the dragon chair, the Empress made three absurd sounds, which made Zhang Jing show a look of fear, while Xu Qingxiao kept his eyes on his nose, his nose on his mouth, and remained silent.

"The Ministry of Punishment! One of the six divisions of the Great Wei made such an absurd thing. People in the world are afraid that they will laugh at the Great Wei."

"Xu Qingxiao, what you do is too absurd and reckless."

The empress' voice sounded, she sat on the dragon chair, and reprimanded Xu Qingxiao at the beginning, accusing Xu Qingxiao of being reckless.

"Your Majesty taught me."

"I can go back to Your Majesty. I have redressed my grievances for my subordinates. The Ministry of Punishment has rejected the case. I believe that what I have done today has indeed damaged the image of the Ministry of Punishment and the state of Wei."

"But I think even more that if I don't make trouble today, what will be damaged is not the state of the Great Wei, but the foundation of the Great Wei."

Xu Qingxiao said like this.

Yes, being so noisy is indeed damaging the image of the Criminal Ministry, but who is more important, the image or the country?

One is face and the other is reality.

"Xu Qingxiao, you are talking nonsense."

Zhang Jing spoke immediately and angrily reprimanded Xu Qingxiao.

"I told you to shut up, didn't you hear me?"

However, the empress looked at him coldly, Zhang Jing shut his mouth in an instant, no matter how unwilling he was, he had to shut up obediently.

"Xu Qingxiao, you should tell me, why did you damage the foundation of Great Wei?"

The Empress said indifferently.

Your Highness, Xu Qingxiao saluted.

"Your Majesty, maybe after the news spreads, people all over the world will think that I made a big fuss out of a molehill, but the reason why I do this is that I even think that I did it on purpose."

"However, I do have anger in my heart, and I did it on purpose."

"It's just that the anger in my heart is not because of this trivial matter, but the attitude of the whole Ministry of Criminal Justice. I believe that no matter how big or small the case is, as long as there is a grievance, then the Ministry of Criminal Justice must accept it, find out the truth, and return the people. A justice."

"But if the officials of the Ministry of Punishment think that a trivial matter does not need to be dealt with by the Ministry of Punishment, then may I ask Your Majesty, is it really that kind of serious crime that can be taken seriously? Then what is the role of the law?"

"In this way, the people of the world, as long as they don't kill people or set fires, the rest are not counted as crimes?"

"Therefore, the officials of the Ministry of Punishment, who are angry with me, did not do anything. The minister intentionally did it to let the people of the world see that the Ministry of Punishment made a fool of himself. In this way, when similar things happen next time, the Ministry of Punishment will have a long memory and will not dare to mess around."

"Even if because of this matter, I am given the name of being a madman from the past, even if I am scorned by people all over the world, even if I am targeted by the civil and military courts of the court, I will still do this."

"Because I am in charge of the Ministry of Punishment and an official of the Ministry of Punishment, I have an obligation and responsibility to make the Ministry of Punishment better."

When Xu Qingxiao opened his mouth, his words were so righteous that he was about to cry.

But in the eyes of Zhang Jing and the few ministers outside, Xu Qingxiao's words were extremely hypocritical.

It is obviously venting personal anger, but it is said to be so great?This is simply shameless.

But there is really no way, who made the Ministry of Punishment itself unlucky?If you insist on wearing small shoes for Xu Qingxiao, if someone catches you, what can you say?

On the dragon chair, the empress quietly listened to Xu Qingxiao's righteous words. After Xu Qingxiao finished speaking, the empress did not change her expression, but looked at Zhang Jingdao.

"Say."

Just one word, with a cold attitude.

"His Majesty!"

"Xu Qingxiao publicly reported his personal revenge. A few days ago, Xu Qingxiao came to the Ministry of Criminal Justice to take over the file. However, due to the busyness of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, he did not hand over the file to Xu Qingxiao immediately, and he felt resentful."

"And it was also because the treasury of the Ministry of Punishment was really busy, and the treasury was in a bad mood that day, so it had an argument with Xu Qingxiao's subordinates, and was fined twenty shots."

"Xu Qingxiao used this as an excuse to make a big fuss in the Criminal Department, which made everyone in the Criminal Department restless. I believe that Xu Qingxiao was full of benevolence and morality just now, but in fact it was all selfishness. Therefore, I beg Your Majesty to punish Xu Qingxiao severely."

"Otherwise, everyone in the Ministry of Punishment will refuse to accept it."

When Zhang Jing said this, he really didn't know what to say.

The main reason is that Xu Qingxiao really took advantage of this matter, but anyone with a discerning eye knew that Xu Qingxiao was just avenging his own personal revenge, but he took advantage of it.

But you say let it be?That definitely won't work, everyone in the Ministry of Punishments is waiting for him to give them an explanation, if Xu Qingxiao is not punished, then his weight as Minister of the Ministry of Punishment will be reduced by more than half in the hearts of everyone.

The empress didn't answer, but just looked at Xu Qingxiao.

"Your Majesty, Zhang Shangshu is right."

"That is to say, it took the minister seventeen days."

"That is to say, nearly beat people to death with twenty sticks, and even forged a letter of resignation, trying to deceive the minister."

"That is to say, the minister defended his subordinates, and the head of the criminal department refused to accept the case, and even told the minister to leave."

"The subject is thinking about one thing. Qingxiao is a minister of the Great Wei. He does things for His Majesty and for the Great Wei. No matter how big or small, he is dedicated to the Great Wei. A small matter for the people of the world, when it comes together, becomes a big thing for the Great Wei."

"I'm doing big things for the Great Wei, and the Minister of the Ministry of Punishment told me to leave, and the Minister of the Ministry of Punishment asked me if I had enough trouble."

"The minister would like to ask now, Li Yuan, the Minister of the Ministry of Punishment, told the minister to go away, did he mean to tell His Majesty to go away? The Minister of the Ministry of Punishment asked if he had enough trouble? Did he ask His Majesty if he had enough trouble?"

Xu Qingxiao was eloquent, and Zhang Jing trembled when he said something.

"Xu Qingxiao, don't spit blood!"

"You are slandering, slandering, slandering!"

"Your Majesty, this veteran has absolutely no intention of doing so. This veteran is loyal to the Great Wei, and this veteran is also loyal to His Majesty."

Zhang Jing really wanted to scold him. Xu Qingxiao's snarky mouth was simply lawless. Before facing Huaiping County King, he directly said that he wanted to rebel.

Talking about this matter now, just say that you are scolding His Majesty and let Your Majesty go?

If such rebellious words were said, beheading ten times would not be too much.

This Xu Qingxiao's ability to put hats on others is too strong.

"enough."

The next moment, the empress' voice sounded extremely calm.

She has no anger.

Instead, he looked at Zhang Jingdao again.

"One dossier, delayed for seventeen days?"

she asked calmly.

"Your Majesty, it's not that the Ministry of Criminal Justice is targeting Xu Qingxiao, but that the dossier is really hard to find. The [-]th day is a bit long, but it's reasonable. Besides, even if Xu Qingxiao is given the corresponding information, I'm afraid Xu Qingxiao won't be able to investigate the results. , dozens of people have taken over this case, but there is no follow-up progress!"

"Actually, I planned to change a dossier for Xu Qingxiao a few days ago. I didn't know that Xu Qingxiao would make trouble today. If I knew Xu Qingxiao was so impatient, I changed it for him."

"I also hope that Your Majesty will see clearly."

Zhang Jing replied that the matter had come to this point, and he could only blame it. After all, it had been delayed for seventeen days.

"Excellent, Lord Shangshu can recognize people at a glance. With such ability, being a Shangshu is really wronged sir."

When Xu Qingxiao heard this, he couldn't help but sarcastically.

"Xu Qingxiao, don't be smug here. What I said is not bad. You can't take this case. The Ministry of Criminal Justice has been working on this case for decades. Dozens of people have been changed back and forth, but there has been no progress. .”

"You just joined the criminal department, how could you solve this case?"

Zhang Jing spoke coldly.

"Then why did you give this case to me?" Xu Qingxiao said coldly.

"I entrust this case to you just to let you read it carefully. You have just entered the criminal department, so you naturally need to be familiar with the criminal department's environment and the criminal department's procedures. It is not really entrusting this case to you. Taking over, delaying you for seventeen days is a little bad, but it's not a big deal."

"You make a big fuss in the Ministry of Punishment, and your crime is unforgivable."

Zhang Jing finally thought of how to solve this trouble. He seized this point and said it bravely. Anyway, you can't handle this case. Although the Criminal Department did delay you a bit, it's not a big mistake.

"Understood, Your Majesty, I understand, and I would like to congratulate Your Majesty, Wei has such a capable person."

"Zhang Shangshu, you can tell at a glance who is a capable minister and who is not, who can solve any case, and who can't solve any case."

"Since this is the case, I have the courage to ask Your Majesty to give Zhang Shangshu the duty of inspection. Zhang Shangshu will not sit in the Ministry of Punishments in the future, but will guard at the entrance of the capital. If you find a capable minister, report to Your Majesty immediately."

"All the files and cases from the Ministry of Criminal Justice are all moved to the adults' homes. Whoever thinks that they can solve the case will hand over the files to whoever. I, Dawei, are blessed. From now on, I, Dawei, will never have any unjust or suspicious cases."

"My lord, you are trying to become a saint."

Xu Qingxiao stood aside, his words were extremely flattering, but his tone and attitude were full of sarcasm.

"Xu Qingxiao!"

"You are too shameful."

Zhang Jing trembled, Xu Qingxiao's words were too hurtful, he was exaggerating on the surface, but every sentence pierced his heart like a sword.

"Zhang Shangshu, is the lower official deceiving people too much, or is the reason of the Shangshu far-fetched?"

Xu Qingxiao said coldly.

Anyway, it has come to this point, if you can't beat you, don't you still be mad at you?

"Your Majesty, the old minister begs His Majesty to deprive Xu Qingxiao of his position and put him in prison, otherwise the old minister dares to assert that Xu Qingxiao will continue to harm other departments in the future."

Zhang Jing knelt on the ground without any nonsense, and directly begged the Empress to punish Xu Qingxiao.

"Your Majesty, I beg Your Majesty to let Zhang Shangshu take the position of inspector, select talents from all over the country for Wei, and return Wei to a bright future. If this is the case, I would rather go to prison. As long as there is no more case in Wei, even if I die regret."
