The people at the lower levels are not clear about the undercurrent of the upper strata, but it is the consensus of everyone that Chang'an City is not peaceful recently—except for the Dengwen drum that is ringing at the gate of the palace every day, the emperor has recently released a new The imperial edict ordered the expansion of the prison in Tingwei Temple.

With ten edicts issued, even a fool would understand that the prison in Tingwei Temple is no longer enough!

This is the result, but the cause of the incident happened a few days ago.

At the Great Court Meeting a few days ago, officials from aristocratic families in the court were absent, and the emperor took the opportunity to issue many decrees.So Wen Fei ordered ten government offices to pass the decree, and all disobedient people would be taken away. After killing chickens to make an example to monkeys, all ministries settled down.

The emperor has been planning for many years, and has already placed manpower in various ministries, so that even if the chief officer is away, he can quickly take over the work.But it was only at ten o'clock, and on the second day, those small officials began to find various excuses to ask for leave-the imperial court may not have ten Da Si Nong, but it cannot do without the entire Da Si Nong Temple, otherwise Just relying on Pinghuai to order ten people can't do anything.

The so-called law does not blame the public, these low-level officials and small officials are certainly not good, but when everyone strikes in groups, things are completely different.After all, the emperor can cultivate ten Pinghuai orders, but it is impossible to cultivate dozens of official vacancies in the entire Dasinong Temple.

What's more, the imperial court lacked more than ten chief ministers!

In these ten rounds, in the confrontation between the emperor and the aristocratic family, it seemed that the aristocratic family had the upper hand.

But the emperor was not a vegetarian, let alone the soldiers and horses in his hands.So Wen Fei, who had just worked overtime for ten days and delivered the imperial decree, appeared on the streets of Chang'an the next day wearing armor and sword.

More than a hundred Yulin followed behind, Wen Fei no longer went to various government offices to pass orders these ten times.With a stack of lists in her hand, she went door to door to visit those petty officials who were not on duty according to the information provided by the government offices.

When the great general of the court personally invites someone to be on duty in the government office, it is really not an honor for someone who is not important, but unfortunately the person who is invited is not happy at all--the sick leave is found pretending to be sick, and the moment is negligence The duty was sent to Tingwei Temple.Those who looked for excuses found out that it was false, so they tied it up and sent it to Tingwei Temple without saying a word.Not to mention absenteeism, they were all taken away and sent to Tingwei Temple to be locked up!

There are more than a hundred habayashi, just catching people and giving them away are busy going around, and they can be seen in Chang'an city from time to time.

Naturally, the news spread quickly. At first, some people were hesitant about the family's warning and tried to get away with it.But later they found that Wen Fei's ten entourages not only brought the imperial physician sent by the palace, but also the old Tingwei Shi from Tingwei Temple, so they immediately stopped their extra thoughts.

It took Wen Fei half a day to arrest 30 or [-] people and put them in prison, and when he went to the next ten places, he was in vain.

This is certainly not because those people "learned to be smart" and hid. After all, their family is here, and monks can't escape the temple if they run away, not to mention that they haven't planned to give up their hard-won official positions yet.They just realized ten things. The aristocratic family is the thigh, but the emperor is not the small arm. When the two sides fight against each other, no one can offend a small shrimp like them.

In contrast, although the aristocratic family is powerful, the emperor possesses the orthodoxy and righteousness - if you want to arrest them, you can arrest them, if you want to shut them down, you don't even need to find a reason to dismiss them. This is the emperor's advantage.

Even if everyone understands that the emperor cannot abolish all the officials just to fight with the family, but no one wants to be the chicken who kills the chicken to make an example to the monkey.So they tucked their tails in a hurry, and sneaked back to their respective government offices to take up duty. As long as today's leave request did not happen, what should be done should continue to be done.

Fortunately, the emperor also knew that it was not easy to stand in line, so he did not intend to kill them all.

Wen Fei's big fight today was originally to knock mountains and shake tigers. Now that everyone has gone back to work, she will naturally not go to those government offices to arrest people.Randomly checked a few more companies, and after confirming that everyone was on duty, they withdrew their troops and went back.

Most people escaped ten catastrophes because of this, but the few unlucky ones who were caught by Wen Fei's door still entered Tingwei Temple.

Tingwei personally inspected his full cell, and looked at the ten new batches of "prisoners" who had been sent in, and he felt a headache on his forehead.In the end, he could only throw people in and squeeze them, and then he wrote a memorial letter to the emperor, requesting that the cell be expanded!

These are ten very excessive demands, of course not because of the money needed to expand the cell, but because of the reputation - the prosperous age has never been peaceful, and there are fewer criminals, and the empty cell is worthy of praise.If there were so many criminals in any dynasty or generation that the prisons could not fit, they would be reviled if they were written in the history books, because such a tragedy would only happen if the king lost his way.

Ting Wei dared to write this memorial, it was really bold.

Today, he is not a person who cares about his reputation. After receiving this memorial, instead of being angry, he laughed out loud.After laughing enough, he agreed with ten strokes of the Zhubi, and ordered the inner government to allocate funds to supervise the construction as soon as possible.

Fame is nothing, and the history books will wait for future generations to comment, but the emperor's actions are undoubtedly to promote his determination.

Sure enough, the news reached the aristocratic family, and it was unknown how many teacups were broken.

************************************************** ************************

The emperor is in his prime, full of ambitions, and just wants to gather power.

The aristocratic family has been comfortable for many years, and the interior is rotten, but the accumulation of hundreds of years is not a joke.

No one will take the initiative to retreat ten steps, because both parties understand what it means to retreat at this time.But in just a few days of confrontation, the emperor caught the aristocratic family ten times by surprise, but the aristocratic family's counterattack seemed so weak.

Ten more times, the heads of families, big and small, in Chang'an City gathered in ten halls to discuss the current situation.

The situation is not very good right now, but most people are still not panicking.Because even if the emperor managed to get those small officials back to the government office and make the government office run normally, these small officials themselves are inextricably linked with them—the reason why the family is a family is not The fact that ten people hold high positions does not mean that ten times are the same, nor is it even the wealth accumulated in the family era.

They rely on the monopoly of knowledge!

In the era when ordinary people could not even read big characters, the emperor wanted to promote talents, but he couldn't choose those who couldn't even read characters.He can help Qi Taiwei to a high position with his discerning eyes, but he is a general, but not a civil servant.

"The left and right are still our people, don't worry." Someone was drinking tea casually.

But there were also people who had a bad temper and threw their teacups to scold them angrily: "They are all cowards. I sent a message to tell them not to go to the government office, but they were so frightened by that little boy surnamed Wen that ten of them even ran back."

Some people watched the excitement and thought it was a big deal: "How many chickens have you killed, Your Majesty? How about we kill ten chickens?"

These words uttered ten times, and immediately attracted everyone's attention. The grumpy man blurted out: "Which chicken are you talking about? The one whose surname is Wen?!"

Everyone who was eager to try rolled their eyes when they heard this, and then withdrew their gazes—the so-called killing chickens to scare monkeys naturally still has to pick soft persimmons.That surnamed Wen is not a chicken, she is clearly a tiger with teeth and claws, and it can kill people when it jumps on it.

No one wanted to take the risk of being bitten to death, so the topic changed quickly, and no one brought up the topic of killing chickens and monkeys.I'm afraid that someone who is not clear-headed is really going to provoke the other party at such a delicate time.

The irascible Patriarch's family background is not low, and although he has reacted after being stared at by everyone, he is still dissatisfied in his heart.So he said bluntly: "The surname Wen is only a ten-year-old child, so it's worth your fear? Besides, she is a diehard loyalist to the emperor. These days, she does a lot of flamboyant things. Do you still expect that you will be safe if you don't provoke her?" As he spoke, he felt reasonable, and his tone became more and more high-pitched: "If you want me to say, the right way is to deal with people. Where does the emperor dare to attack us? In military power! Breaking Wen Fei is like breaking his ten arms! "

This statement is full of personal emotions, but I have to say that the last two sentences are also considered ten words.

All the patriarchs who didn't want to pay attention to him turned their heads back one after another, but before the irascible patriarch was satisfied, the audience said: "That's not bad. Although Wen Fei is young, he has great prestige in the army. If he can It’s good to draw them over.”

The irritable patriarch became even more irritable: "Why? He was supported by the emperor's ten hands. In terms of relatives, he is still the emperor's nephew."

Everyone ignored him and began to discuss it themselves—they were not afraid that the emperor would really leave the family behind to do it alone, because the actual conditions simply did not allow it, but this does not mean that truly smart people are not worried.Just because they are a family, it doesn't mean that the family is them.For example, those small officials and officials today will become a new family when they grow up.

When the time comes, the family will still be there, but who will remember them?

Under the interests of the group, what everyone really cares about is their own interests, their respective families.So they don't want to delay and can't delay. They must end this fearless confrontation before others grow up.

But right now, regardless of the final result, Wen Fei was regarded by them as ten breakthrough points.

Because of her high position and authority, because she is deeply trusted by the emperor, and because she is sharp and youthful... She looks more deceitful than the seasoned Taiwei Qi!

Everyone discussed ten times, and felt that with Wen Fei's status and military achievements, money and power should not be lacking, so there was no need to use it to make fun of him.They decided that they could try to sow dissension first, and let people tell Wen Fei the story of the master of high meritorious service.It's best to bribe the people around her to say it, even if she doesn't believe it, she will feel a little grudge if she hears it too much.

Then I can think of other ways, such as beauty tricks...

Although Chu Yu is not the head of the Chu family, but he is the speaker of the Chu family in Chang'an, so he was naturally present today.Compared with other people, he was more concerned about it, but he didn't expect that everyone's eyes would suddenly fall on him while talking.

At that time, Chu Yu was still thinking about gains and losses in his heart, so he was suddenly watched by Shi Shi, but Shi Shi didn't react: "Why are you all looking at me?"

Then a close family friend said with a smile: "Brother Mingchu, I remember that your Chu family still has a girl to marry?"

This is pure nonsense, how popular the only daughter of the Chu family is, who doesn't know?Each of them has a gentleman who wants to pursue it.It's just that no one mentioned this now, and another ten people answered, "I remember that the girl from the Chu family had a marriage contract with General Wen..."

Chu Yu looked at them expressionlessly, his heart full of words.

The author has something to say: Wen Fei (grinding claws): I heard that someone is going to trick me?

Chu Xi (snorting): What, do you have any objections?

The little tiger withdrew its paw silently, picked up his daughter-in-law and brought her back to the den...
