The Ming Dynasty started with caution

Wang Shouren said nothing. People without conscience are the most terrifying people. They have no scruples.

But Xu Mu still has a conscience and knows his integrity.

Emperor Hongzhi looked at this scene blankly and sighed: "Civil officials love to keep their reputation and are not afraid of death, but they are afraid of losing their reputation. The methods used by Wang Qing's family amaze me."

Chang Yuanxi couldn't calm down for a long time, and whispered: "I sincerely request that he be transferred to the post of Shaoqing in Dali Temple."

This is when Bao Gong was alive! Where can I find such good rough jade?

Yan Chengjin took a deep look at Chang Yuanxi and flatly refused: "Mr. Chang is wrong. Wang Shouren is good at everything. He was transferred from the Ministry of Justice to the Ministry of War. There is no reason to change back."

He advised Wang Shouren to be transferred to the Ministry of War because he wanted him to take charge of Wu Zijian and train generals for the Ming Dynasty.

In the middle period of the Ming Dynasty, there was a shortage of generals, and most of them were selected from civilian officials. During the time of Anda Khan, they suffered a big loss.

While talking, Xu Mu endured the humiliation, wore obscene pants, and finished writing the confession.

He put the money in his hand and raised his head with a slightly uneasy expression: "What are you going to do with me?!"

Wang Shouren read the confession attentively, and after a moment, he said: "I can't make the decision, it's up to Your Majesty to handle it. However, I won't take off my clothes and parade around the countryside. Don't worry, Mr. Xu."

Xu Mu's nervous expression gradually relaxed, and he was obviously relieved.

After the confession was sent to the screen, Emperor Hongzhi read it word for word, with a complex expression on his face.

"The salt policy has been changed to sold by the court. The people can eat salt. As a parent and official, you should be happy. How can you have revenge?!"

The country is your country, and officials certainly don't care about the lives of the people.

However, it is true that more people can now eat salt.

Yan Chengjin's eyes flickered.

Xu Mu cheated him because of the salt policy! Unfortunately, there is no evidence in the confession that Xiong Gan had an affair with Prince Ning.

Presumably Xu Mu doesn't know either, right?

"How does Your Majesty want to deal with it?" Wang Shouren bowed and asked.

A saint should treat everyone with kindness.

Xu Mu still has a conscience and is not a heinous person. He hopes that Xu Mu can die a good death.

Emperor Hongzhi's heart was as sharp as a knife: "Sent Yansui to exile, and Xiong Gan was sent to Jinyiwei Prison!"

Yan Chengjin hesitated whether to be sent to heaven prison or not.

But there are no ships to go to Mankara recently. If Xu Mu wants to stay in prison for a year with good food and drink, it is more cost-effective to be sent to the Yansui border area.

The news that Wang Shouren and Xu Mu took off their clothes spread like wildfire in the capital.

Wang Hua spat out a mouthful of tea, blushed and cursed: "This traitor has brought shame on the Wang family!"

Everyone in the capital knew about it, including his colleagues and disciples.

"Wearing only obscene trousers in the government hall, it's insulting to politeness! It's offensive to morals!"

He didn't mind that Wang Shouren took off his clothes. What he did mind was that Wang Shouren took off his clothes first and encouraged Xu Mu to take them off too. Isn't this a mental illness?

"Master, the young master is back." The housekeeper glanced up, then quickly lowered his head.

When Wang Shouren came back from the government hall, he saw Wang Hua and was so ashamed and angry that he planned to take a detour, but was stopped by Wang Hua.

"How can you teach the prince when you call me daddy? How can you have the dignity to be the emperor's teacher?!"

Wang Shouren pondered for a moment: "Your Highness, you won't mind."

Wang Hua realized that he couldn't defeat his son: "I'm going to settle the score with Yan Chengjin!"

Xiong Mansion,

Xiong Gan's face was calm and calm, and he sent someone to inquire about the news about the Yatang.

When Wang Shouren was in the Ministry of Punishment, he looked through unjust cases from more than ten years ago. He had no clues, and he could find them out.

This person's talent for investigating crimes is unparalleled.

But the reason why he felt at ease was because Xu Mu was determined to die and would not confess even if he was killed. Nothing could shake him.

Even if the King of Hell comes in person, he still won't be able to tell the truth.

"Master, there is news! Wang Shouren and Xu Mu took off their clothes and went to court, but Mr. Xu said nothing. Now the whole capital is saying that Wang Shouren is a madman, and even the people in the palace are ridiculed." The housekeeper secretly felt. funny.

Strip?

Xiong Gan smiled and took a sip from the tea cup.

Prince Ning was careful and could not find any traces. When the Jin Yiwei returned to the capital, his suspicions were cleared.

At this time, the young man in brown clothes and black hat rushed in in a panic: "Master, there are many imperial guards outside, as well as people from the Five Cities Military and Horse Division..."

Xiong Gan's face suddenly turned pale.

…

Royal Palace, Ministry of War duty room.

Qin Hong accidentally discovered that the desk was empty and said displeasedly: "Where is that boy Wang Shouren?"

"Reporting to the Ministry of Justice, I was called by people from the Metropolitan Procuratorate to handle the case."

Yan Chengjin asks his Ministry of War to borrow people all day long, this guy never does anything by himself! Qin Hong snorted angrily and sat down on his desk.

Now, all officials in the imperial court are paying attention to this matter. I wonder if it can be brought to trial?

At this time, the civil servant ran in and said: "Sir, Your Majesty has urgently summoned Fengtian Palace to discuss matters."

Qin Hong put his official hat on his head and went out to the imperial steps. He found that Han Wen and Zhang Sheng were also coming. He looked at each other and quickened his pace.

When entering the main hall, Emperor Yan Chengjin and Emperor Hongzhi were already there.

After several people bowed and saluted, they stood aside.

"Qiu Wei's case has been solved. Xiong Gan is an accomplice. I have ordered the Jinyi Guards to arrest him and imprison him."

Li Dongyang and others shook their bodies violently and looked at Emperor Hongzhi in disbelief.

Ma Wensheng asked doubtfully: "Your Majesty, how can it be that Xiong Gan, as the Minister of the Ministry of Punishment, is in charge of criminal affairs?"

Emperor Hongzhi still couldn't calm down: "I am also in the government office, there will be no lies."

The ministers were sighing.

Yan Chengjin lowered his head. The Qiuwei case concerns the candidates in Northern Zhili. I wonder how His Majesty will reward them.

Of course he hopes to join the cabinet, but with His Majesty's picky temper, he probably won't readily agree.

Chang Yuanxi stood beside him with a radiant face.

The Ministry of Punishment cannot live without a minister for a day, and since he is a third-rank official and has made great achievements, it is just right for him to be promoted to a first-rank official.

Sure enough, Emperor Hongzhi wrote lightly: "The post of Minister of the Ministry of Punishment is vacant. Who do you think can be qualified?"

Chang Yuanxi felt nervous. It would be too shameless to recommend himself. He looked around cautiously and his eyes fell on Yan Chengjin.

This guy has always been cautious, so he probably wouldn't be recommended.

His eyes turned to Liu Jian again.

Yan Chengjin stepped forward and said, "I recommend Mr. Chang, the Minister of Dali Temple. Mr. Chang has a thoughtful mind and worked hard to solve this case."

After a few days of contact, if this person is appointed as the Minister of the Ministry of Justice, the court will be much more harmonious.

Chang Yuanxi couldn't hide his smile: "Master Yan is so complimentary. I have been the Minister of Dali Temple for many years, so I naturally know about punishment and prison."

Liu Jian has always had a clear mind: "I recommend Wei Shen, the right minister of the Ministry of Punishment."

No other ministers were recommended, which meant that they were selected from among the two.

Everyone raised their heads nervously. The Ministry of Punishment is in charge of the world's criminal affairs and is extremely important.

After careful consideration, Emperor Hongzhi said: "Wei Shen, the right minister of the Ministry of punishment, was promoted to the headquarters of the headquarters, and Chang Yuanxi was transferred to the right minister of the Ministry of punishment."

Wei Shen was a veteran of two dynasties and was older than Chang Yuanxi. He felt more at ease with older and more stable people.

Li Dongyang and others had no objection.

Chang Yuanxi was slightly disappointed.

However, the status of Liubu was higher than that of Wusi. Although it was a level promotion, it was equivalent to a promotion. He quickly received the order to thank him.

Yan Chengjin raised his head slightly and expressed with crazy eyes: I and Wang Shouren are the heroes!

Emperor Hongzhi was sitting in the high hall and naturally noticed: "Wang Shouren was promoted to Right Shaoqing of Dali Temple. As for Yan Qing's family, just give him a jade belt."

Skin pendant? The mutton-fat jade in the minister's palace can be used to circle the capital, and a mere twelve pieces of jade can be used to send away the refugees?

Yan Chengjin took a deep breath: "I thank your Majesty for the gift."

When Chang Yuanxi saw this, his heart immediately became much more balanced.

Emperor Hongzhi frowned and said, "Qiu Wei's papers have been delayed for six days. The Ministry of Rites will order people to review the papers as soon as possible, and the Li Qing family and the Yan Qing family will personally preside over it, so that the list will be made known to the world as soon as possible."

Zhang Sheng looked happy and bowed: "I ordered Hanlin Minister Fei Hong to lead his people to speed up the marking of papers."

Yan Chengjin's face collapsed, and the examiner also needed to mark the paper.

Chunwei is the national examination, and the papers are marked in the east hall of Wenhua Hall.

The Qiuwei examination was only for the Northern Zhili examination, and the papers were marked at Shuntian Prefecture Gongyuan.

I will be locked up in Gongyuan for a few more days.
