Chapter 59: Catching the Sword (2)
"well...."
Cai Jing, who was kneeling, sighed slightly in his heart, and told you not to speak out. How could the other party dare to act like this? His eyes were slightly tilted upwards. On the dragon throne, Zhao Ji closed his eyes and couldn't help but feel more affirming his thoughts.
The man who crawled out said generously and indignantly, but in a moment, he was interrupted.
"Mr. He..."
Bai Muqiu collected the imperial edict and handed it to the yellow door beside him. He walked over the smooth floor with cloud boots. A wisp of silver thread passed by his forehead. The cold eyes stared at the other party, but he opened his mouth, but sighed first.
"Hey... why are you rushing out..." He whispered, walking around the other party, and facing the palace gate, Bai Muqiu asked, "When Xihua Gate, did you say 'There are hungry people outside the city waiting to be fed', right?"
"I said it."
He Zhongsu suddenly raised his head and looked at him, "Are you monitoring us?"
Bai Muqiu turned around, turned his back to the light, and his expression was invisible under the shadow. He said, "Mr. He is worried that tens of thousands of hungry people outside the city can be generously donated?"
"Why didn't there?" He Zhongsu stood up angrily and confronted him. "The granary in my husband's house has been gone for seven out of ten, and the young and old at home also have two meals a day to fill his stomach. What have you, a eunuch? Why should you supervise the officials to understand the people?"
Bai Muqiu didn't answer, and took two steps back, clapped his palms, "Find out the records of Lord He last night."
"What's the meaning?"
"Even someone is monitoring the family?"
"I'm afraid it's impossible. This eunuch is probably cheating us."
The officials whispered and looked at the white-haired eunuch standing there in horror. They were uneasy. They usually knew very well what they had done. They naturally knew what they had at home. If the family had a vision of the East Factory... Then everyone, including Cai Jing and Wang Fu, couldn't help but shivered.
——Wow.
On the left side of the hall, there was a table with paper piled up on it. Four or five small yellow doors were turning around. The atmosphere in the hall was extremely tense, and only the sound of paper rolling was heard. Soon, a small yellow door came over with a page of paper and presented it to the man on the dragon throne.
Zhao Ji snorted and asked, "He Qing, I ask you what you ate for dinner last night."
"The family is now relatively tight." He Zhongsu knelt down again, "So last night, I was vegetarian at home, only two meals a day, so I was squandering my food, Your Majesty."
"hehe....."
Zhao Ji laughed disappointedly and sent the page to the yellow door to him, "Look at it carefully yourself - I'm disappointed."
Holding the thin piece of paper, He Zhongsu was like holding something weighing thousands of pounds, and his hands were trembling slightly. He heard a thud, and a few imperial pens and inkstone swept down, smashing it into pieces.
He roared, "The day before yesterday, I have given you a chance. I really think I am so young and can fool me. I exchanged my old grain for new grain in the official warehouse, and then transported it to the outside of the city to fool my people."
Furious, Zhao Ji pointed to the kneeling person and said, "Two meals a day, simple meals, haha... Look at what is written on the paper yourself! A table of fifteen dishes, delicacies, and beautiful girls feeding wine. I also recited a poem during the dinner. Do I want me to read it to you?"
Bai Muqiu walked to He Zhongsu, looked down at him, and said in a cold tone, "Does Lord He have anything to say?"
"Your Majesty...Your Majesty..."
He Zhongsu's face was beads of sweat flowing as big as beans, crawling forward, "The paper is written on them, they are accusing me. Your Majesty clearly observed that they were accusing me."
"I don't want to see him again." Zhao Ji closed his eyes and sat back on the dragon throne.
Bai Muqiu waved his hand. The soldier who had been waiting at the hall gate for a long time came to raise He Zhongsu, who was limping on the ground and dragged it out. In the quiet hall, he was wailing and begging, but no one dared to come forward to protect him. Everyone knew that he was finished.
When the bloody head was presented, the thought finally turned into a bloody reality. Many ministers who had never seen blood couldn't help but sigh. Bai Muqiu took the paper pages again, but it was a thick stack. When many ministers saw the paper pages, their faces were ashes, their knees became soft, and they immediately fell down.
"When I was sixteen years old, I witnessed here with Your Majesty how King Pu killed a group of ministers." Bai Muqiu slowly raised the pages of the paper in his hand and told them clearly word by word.
"The RB Superintendent doesn't mind killing another group now."
At this time, a little yellow door came over to take the page and began to recite the name on it in the order above, from low to high, what crime was committed, whether it was embezzlement, bribery, murder and robbery, bullying men and women, one by one, one by one, it was like pearls and jade falling to the ground, clear and crisp sound.
"Zhen Wen... in the second year of Xinghe, he received 15,000 bribes and released a death row prisoner."
"Zhao Yu... In the 16th year of Chenghua, he poisoned his original wife and buried her in his backyard. In addition, he raped one and seven girls, and his corpses were buried in the back garden garden."
"In the third year of Xinghe, the flower and stone gang was transported, and fifteen boatmen fell into the water and died."
......
Whenever a name or a crime was read, a soldier dragged the man out of the pile of ministers. When he came in, he was left with only a terrified and twisted head quietly placed there. Among them, there were civil officials and military generals' heads that had reached more than ten.
"Zhu Xie..."
After thinking about this, Bai Muqiu looked over deliberately. The man shook all over and became weak. He suddenly lay on the ground, rolled and crawled into the middle, and said in a lost voice: "Your Majesty... Your Majesty saves me, even if I don't have any credit, I will still have a hard work..."
"Enough!"
Zhao Ji stood up, looked at the rows of heads below, closed his eyes and thought for a while, then turned around and left.
"I have killed enough people today. I am very tired. I will retreat to the court!"
Looking at the emperor who was walking away, Bai Muqiu lowered his hand and turned his head to look over, "Mr. Zhu, you are a little lucky this time, so pay more attention next time."
"Yes!" Zhu Xie had already been frightened by the heads on the ground, and his soul flew two souls, and his head seemed to be like a woodpecker. "Thank you for the kindness of the Admiral for not killing, and thank you for not killing."
Bai Muqiu returned the page to Xiaohuangmen and walked out, "Wait, let me listen to this supervisor. Today is Your Majesty's kindness, and I won't be so lucky next time."
After saying that, he had already left the hall gate, and there was a sound of gasping behind him.
*****************************************************************************************
"The Lord, I didn't kill it all today."
Hai Dafu followed.
Bai Muqiu looked at the already bright sky and sighed: "Your Majesty is soft."
"But we can't be soft." His tone became harder and harder, "Cai Jing and Wang Fu have too many gangs. It's time to lose weight for them. The remaining list..."
His eyes flashed with cold light, "Pick some and kill!"
