Chapter 1167 (1/2)
Jiuqing knelt on the ground. The two generals of the imperial forest army didn't hear Jingmo speak and left the imperial study without stopping for a moment.
”Go to the household department,” Jing Mo ordered the eunuch next to him after the two generals retired. ”Order the household department to present the list of officials waiting in Beijing to me.”
The eunuch hurriedly stepped back.
Listen to Jingmo's list of alternate officials. Jiuqing doesn't have to think about what Jingmo is going to do. His majesty wants to use the alternate officials to fill the vacant positions of those arrested.
It's not easy to be an official in Zhuri. Studying hard in the cold window of ten years and nominating once on the golden list does not mean that you can enter the official door. You have to wait for the vacancy of the official position. I don't know how many people's lives have been wasted. Now Jingmo's light imperial edict makes the alternate officials happy. What about the arrested officials? Life is ruined.
Jingmo's skill makes it too sudden, even some scoundrels. You are a dignified imperial official. If you don't judge or ask, you will directly wipe the official position. Are you unreasonable?
Jiuqing knelt on the ground and didn't think of a plea for a moment,
Jingmo took a drink from his tea cup and said, ”I know that you scholars talk about character, serve yourself as an official, and be clean. Just don't use your character with me. If you want to admonish me, I will help you.”
Jiuqing listened to Jingmo's words, but his heart was not strong. His majesty said one by one, is it difficult, your majesty? Aren't you a scholar?
”The Xie family gathered people to commit murder,” Jingmo said again: ”more than ten girls were killed in a row. The owner reported to the official to Dali temple and was driven out. Why don't I see you intervene in this matter? How could such a thing happen again and again in the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty and yamen everywhere? Tell me, Queen, you might as well tell me about it first. ”
Jiuqing bowed his head and said nothing.
Jingmo suddenly pushed and folded the objects on the imperial book case, and the pen, ink, paper and inkstone scattered all over the ground. Two jade erlongxizhu candlesticks fell to the ground and broke into several pieces“ You are afraid of my mother family, but you are not afraid of me alone! ” Jingmo's voice changed from plain to severe, but it was an instant. ”If you don't want to work for the imperial court, go back to my hometown. I want to see. Who dares to meet me in the war against Japan today!”
”Calm down, your majesty,” Jiuqing knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Jingmo.
”After I ascended the throne, I didn't use any more swords,” Jing Mo said fiercely: ”I think some people in the court have forgotten who I am!”
Jiuqing repeatedly asked Jingmo to calm down and set Princess Fengtian Linglong as the latter's business. Not only their ministers were unwilling, but also the Empress Dowager of the harem was fiercely opposed. Just now, the emperor sent the Xie family to prison and just beheaded Xie bin, the eldest son of the Xie family. It is said that the rear palace is also frightened. The more than 20 speech officials in front of the Palace said they would catch them. Even their families and their majesty didn't let them go. Jiuqing was beating a drum in his heart. Can they persuade them or fight with their lives to stop Jingmo?
”Say it,” Jing Mo slowed down his voice and said, ”what else do you want to tell me?”
Jiuqing was silent. Now the emperor won't care about their lives. The nine of them fell down. Countless people want to compete for the position of Jiuqing. What do they take to stop them?
”Don't talk,” said Jing Mo, ”do you want to spend time here with me?”
