Chapter 625

In the imperial study, Meng Ti looked around nervously.

Although the emperor saved him, he was still a little worried. After all, he still had a crime. If the emperor had to save him, he would inevitably be under pressure.

"The emperor arrived."

With a cry, Meng Ti hurriedly got up and respectfully faced the door.

A tall man in a Dragon Robe came in, Meng Ti immediately knelt down: "sin people Meng Ti, knock on the emperor, long live the emperor!"

"Flat."

"Thank you, Emperor." Meng Ti stood up uneasily and found that the emperor in front of him, although his face was white, was not angry, and there was a sign of a dragon among people.

This is Ming Jun.

Wang Zhong also looked at Meng ti. Although Meng Ti was older than him, he was still young.

His body is incomparably strong and his muscles swell. At first glance, he is a good martial artist.

This kind of person is definitely a strong general on the battlefield.

At present, although Wang Zhong is designing muskets, he is only prepared to be his own personal soldier.

There are two reasons.

First, it is impossible to design many muskets at the beginning, so you can only give priority to equipping your own soldiers.

Second, the design of muskets is hard to say, but easy to say.

Some capable craftsmen can imitate the inner structure as long as they look at it.

So Wang Zhong worried that he didn't want this deadly weapon to be imitated when he didn't fully control the country.

Such weapons, and even gunpowder, saltpeter, and even iron-making coal mines, can only belong to state-owned assets.

Only in this way can the rebels be prevented from owning muskets.

Therefore, on the battlefield at the forefront, it is still cold weapons to fight, and it is of great use to mention such a big general.

"Meng Ti, I heard about you from the queen, but I want to hear what happened from you." Wang Zhong said, "if you really have grievances, I promise you, I will help you uphold justice."

The so-called golden words, the emperor has spoken, that is, he really wants to help him.

For a moment, the whole person suddenly trembled.

"Thank you, emperor, the thing is like this............."

Meng Ti said the same thing as Zhao Luan said.

After Meng Ti was removed from an important position in the army, he was arrested not long after returning home. The charge was corruption when he was in the army.

With that, the iron man suddenly kowtowed: "emperor, the sinners are dedicated to the country and have never committed corruption and bribery. Besides, the sinners didn't care about accounting matters in the army at all. Where to go for corruption? Please see it clearly."

"Meng Ti, don't worry, I won't let go of a bad person in this case. I must make them look good."

After chatting for a while, Wang Zhong saw that Meng Ti was seriously injured all over, and said to he Taigao, "partner, arrange Meng Ti to cultivate his injury. You can arrange someone to go to Lu Pingying, the official Yin, and pass the edict, saying that I will personally examine the case in three days and let him be ready."

"The old slave will do it right away."

Wang Zhong kept it for three days, in part because he wanted to collect the criminal evidence of Lu Pingying's deception.

These days, he knows that Lu Pingying, as the official Yin, is not idle at all, and has arrested many generals for various crimes.

You should know that these people are all good fighters and loyal to the royal family. It's heinous to suppress these military ministers like this!

………………………………

Meng ti's news of being rescued was naturally known by Lu Pingying long ago.

For a moment, his face was extremely ugly: "the emperor stretched out his hand too long, and even sent someone into the prison to take him away."

"Master, what should I do now?" The housekeeper who came to report asked.

"No, the emperor doesn't know what happened. He takes care of everything. Maybe the emperor will take care of other cases except this one."

Lu Pingying was worried. He had been helping Lu Zhongbo eradicate dissidents for so long. In order to eradicate the Royal Army, they secretly didn't know how many military personnel they had overthrown.

After thinking for a while, he decided to go to LV Zhongbo's house and ask how to do it.

Lu Zhongbo has been very uncomfortable recently.

Those who can use them are losing one after another, and the emperor's power is growing.

He also heard that Dongchang, which had not been put in an important position for a long time and was on the verge of collapse, actually started recruiting again. Xiejin, the supervisor of Dongchang, even secretly began to investigate some officials close to him.

He knew that the good old days were gone. If he went on like this, he would die.

At present, he uses two tricks.

First, assassination.

Unfortunately, this move did not work. Now the palace is airtight, and he guessed that the emperor had suspected him.

Second, let a group of Ministers kneel down in the Jinluan hall, forcing Wang Chong to let go of the ministers he had caught before.

This move didn't work, but it was much beyond his expectation.

You know, if so many ministers have an accident, the world will be in chaos, but the emperor doesn't seem to worry.

At this time, Lu Pingying asked for an audience outside the door.

"Let him in." Lu Zhongbo said to the housekeeper.

"Lv Xiang, LV Xiang............"

Lu Pingying walked very eagerly, came to Lu Zhongbo and said eagerly, "it's a big deal......"

Lu Pingying used to come and greet Lu Zhongbo, but today he seems very eager.

As soon as he came over, Lu Pingying said that Wang Zhong had saved Meng ti.

"Emperor, this is to regain military power!" Lu Zhongbo looked ugly.

"Lu Xiang, what should we do now? If this is checked, our black hats will be......"

"Hum, what's the hurry?" Lu Zhongbo snorted coldly, "he has military power. So many of our court ministers haven't spent these years in vain. He has soldiers, can't we?"

"If you like this, let him try the case raised by Meng at that time, and let him think that you dare not make any changes. As for me, I will let the emperor know my strength, and then we will......"

Lu Pingying's eyes widened, and finally nodded heavily: "I'll be an official, and it all depends on Lu Xiang."

"No harm!"

………………………………

Two days passed.

Today, Wang Chong didn't go to the morning court again on the grounds of poor health.

"Emperor."

Zhao Luan snuggled up beside Wang Chong and said softly, "I heard that those ministers have been kneeling outside the Jinluan hall for a long time, and my concubines are a little worried."

"Haha, Queen, I will deal with them today."

Wang Zhong sneered. If these ministers want to be heads, then let them be.

In fact, Wang Chong also thought that these officials were very funny, and he had no military power in his hands. He was so brave that he dared to force the palace.

The previous emperor was really a pig, which could be blinded.

"The emperor manages everything every day. He is overworked. Be careful. My concubine asked the imperial dining room to cook tonic soup in the morning yesterday. Let the emperor drink it."

"Thank you, Queen."

Wang nodded emphatically, and then drank tonic soup with Zhao Luan, and immediately felt energetic.

Staring at Zhao Luan's charming face, Wang Chong said with a smile, "queen, I'll see you in the evening."

"Emperor, take your time."

After leaving the Luan harem, he Taigao came to report and Xie Jin asked for an audience.

Wang Chong went to the imperial study. Xie Jin knelt down and said, "the old slave sends greetings to the emperor, and the emperor is blessed."

"Free!" Wang Chong waved his hand and was impatient with the tedious courtesies of the slaves.

"Grandpa Xie, can you find all the criminal evidences of those ministers outside? If not, you don't have to come to me again."

Xie Jin hehe smiled, took out the pamphlet from his arms and handed it to Wang Zhong respectfully.

"Lord, this is the evidence that Lord Zuo forced a girl surnamed Li Min to be a concubine. Poor girl surnamed Li Min didn't obey. Finally, Lord Zuo broke her leg and sold her into a brothel."

"Really!" Wang Zhong frowned.

"It's true. To be honest, it's really difficult for the old slave to find evidence of these people's bribery, because time is too tight, but it's too easy to investigate their bullying of civilians."

At the beginning, Wang Zhong said that he didn't want to find out all the criminal evidences of these ministers if he wanted to rectify them. He just needed to find oneortwo, so Xie Jin was very smart and only looked for those who were easy to investigate.

These ministers were not clean, and they were not satisfied with a little money. Bullying civilians occurred from time to time. Xie Jin arranged his eunuch party to investigate casually and found a lot of things.

"Lord, this is the evidence of Lord Huang's forcible occupation of dozens of people's fertile fields. These dozens of people's fertile fields have been occupied. They have no choice but to complain, and they have been injured by Lord Huang's lackeys. It is really a heinous crime."

"This is the criminal evidence of Lord Duan. He was drunk and forcibly robbed a merchant's wife. Because the merchant refused, the merchant was jailed the next day. Unfortunately, his wife was still in Duan's family, and he didn't know what kind of bullying he had become......"

As Xie Jin finished one thing after another, Wang Chong's face became more and more heavy.

Originally, he thought that it was enough for these ministers to be greedy for money. Unexpectedly, they were so oppressive to civilians.

These civilians are all his king's sons. They are so oppressed that the people will turn against him at that time!

"I see. Have those people brought them?" Wang Zhong asked.

"The old slave took all the victims out according to the emperor's orders. At present, those ministers outside didn't know these things. The emperor already knew them." Xie Jin respectfully said.

"It's hard for you." Wang Zhong nodded approvingly. The ancient eunuchs were really easy to use.

Xie Jin was flattered: "working for the emperor is what old slaves should do. It's not hard."

Wang Chong smiled, got up and stood with his hands down: "it's time to meet those ministers

Unable to help himself, Wang recalled what an emperor of the Ming Dynasty had said before his death:

"Civil servants... Can be killed!"

Why is it that civil servants can be killed? Since ancient times, all those who play with power are civil servants.

Every word of benevolence, righteousness and morality is actually more hateful than local ruffians and hooligans behind the scenes.

Because no matter how bad the local ruffian is, he is obviously bad, but these people are secretly bad, and people who don't know it think how noble they are.

It is also because of this that the former Emperor regarded these civil servants too highly and dared not attack them for fear of affecting the country.

As everyone knows, this group of civil servants is the one who affects the country. Now Wang Chong has no such concern, because compared with worrying about the thoughts of these civil servants, Wang Chong is more worried about... The hearts of the people!

Those who win the hearts of the people win the world.
