Chapter 641 Liu Qiyuan's decision(1/2)
Why is the emperor so abnormal?
Liu Qiyuan was a little confused. This was a complete complicated matter.
The emperor was not clear about his attitude. Even if there were any hints to Duke Jingguo, the major affairs in the world were not clearly stated. Those who were ministers would inevitably speculate on their own, just like a group of dragons without a leader, fighting for their own strength.
This is by no means a good thing.
In the former Ming Dynasty, Jiajing used power and skills to control the world, and all civil and military officials all focused on judging the superior meaning. In this way, what is the world?
Although this case involves his descendants, if possible, he naturally hopes that big things will turn into small things.
But so weird...
But if something really turns into small things, it turns into small things...
At this point, Liu Qiyuan seemed to have thought of something, his pupils suddenly shrank, and an unspeakable fear instantly enveloped his whole body!
This is a sinkhole!
The will of the emperor is Daheng’s heaven, but Daheng also has the court, civil and military officials, and the yamen level after level.
The emperor did not express his attitude, and the civil and military officials at all levels of the court would not perform their functions?
A major case that shocked the world and was obviously abnormal and could not stand the investigation at all.
The emperor did not formally express his attitude, and the case ended hastily, allowing the illegal people to escape from justice.
Even if there is a hint from the emperor,... this hint is too obscure, and it can even be said that it is just a one-sided statement from Duke Yasukuni!
In this way, if the case ends hastily, even if this is what the emperor wants to see, everyone will be happy.
but……
What is the most taboo thing for those who are the emperor?
Civil and military affairs are balance, checks and balances.
But once this is done, isn’t it the most taboo collusion between civil and military officials?
And it was also a collusion between the Prime Minister of the Cabinet and the First Duke of the Daheng Wuxun!
Turning black and white... refers to a deer as a horse?
As a minister, if he commits anything, he will have room for maneuver. Even if he is involved in this incident, he will have room for maneuver.
But once the emperor becomes suspicious, it will add a thorn in his heart...
Even though he could easily get through this case, even if the emperor would not think about it for a while, once he thought about it...
Violating the taboos of imperial power made a self-decisive emperor suspicious, and Liu Qiyuan was a little afraid to think about it.
Thinking of this, Liu Qiyuan's face turned pale a little, and his back was completely soaked in cold sweat.
"Mr. Liu?"
Looking at Liu Qiyuan's ever-changing expression, Duke Jingguo was surprised.
Liu Qiyuan was still scared. He was almost a little short, and he really stepped into the abyss that could never be restored!
No matter how much he was involved in this case, even in the worst case, it was just that he was dismissed from office and dismissed from office.
But once the taboo of imperial power is violated and the emperor becomes suspicious of him, it will not be solved by dismissal from office.
Moreover, this is not something he violated the taboo alone.
He and Duke Jingguo suppressed this matter. No one in the court, and the civil and military officials in the world spoke out about the black and white. This is a huge taboo!
"Master..."
Liu Qiyuan spoke, and said to his lips. He looked at Duke Jingguo in front of him, but he didn't know what to say.
He was a subject, but the Duke of Jingguo in front of him was more than just a subject.
If he violates the taboos of imperial power, he will be doomed, but... Duke Jingguo may not be sure.
No... Maybe Duke Yasukuni didn't notice it at all?
His identity seems to be insensitive to it, and it is normal...
But no matter what, this is definitely not something he can get involved in.
In just a moment, Liu Qiyuan suppressed his intention: "The court has its own laws. No matter what the inside story is, it should be done according to the laws!"
Duke Jingguo was stunned and seemed not to react. Then his voice became a little low: "Mr. Liu, do you know what you are talking about?"
"Liu has been an official for decades and has been innocent all his life. Now he is old and has not had a few years to live..."
Liu Qiyuan's voice was a little hoarse, but the refusal in his words was clearly revealed.
Jingguo said justice: "If this case is investigated, Lord Liu, your reputation will be difficult to preserve for the rest of your life."
“Justice is in the hearts of the people.”
Liu Qiyuan shook his head: "This cabinet thinks that since the court has set the laws, no matter what, it has to act according to the laws."
"If otherwise, today I ignore the laws because of my concerns, and then I ignore the laws because of my concerns. If this continues, the laws and regulations will not exist and the country does not control the country, there will be a great disaster!"
After saying this, Duke Yasukuni suddenly stood up, and there was a hint of anger in his eyes, but soon the anger dissipated and turned into a hint of surprise.
"Each department of the court, civil and military officials, each has its own responsibilities. Liu has the power of Liu, and you also have your own power..."
"Your Majesty is wise and powerful, and has great talent and strategy. You will make decisions in the world. We are all ministers and have the duties of ministers..."
As for this, Liu Qiyuan didn't say much, and his words were already very straightforward.
Duke Jingguo looked at Liu Qiyuan deeply, and without saying a word, he bowed his hand and then left.
When Duke Jingguo left, Liu Qiyuan stood up and walked. After about a quarter of an hour, Liu Qiyuan seemed to have figured out something, rubbed his forehead and let out a long breath.
He probably understood the emperor's mind and probably figured out how to do it, for him, the best choice.
The root of the problem in this case is not the case, but the imperial power, and the world situation under the imperial power.
The art of emperors lies in balance under control.
Whether it is out of control or balance, it is not a good thing for a country.
The terrible consequences of the two hundred years of the Ming Dynasty clearly illustrate the terrifying consequences of out-of-control and imbalance.
Now the country is firmly stable, and the country's major strategies are all in the court.
He was the chief minister of the cabinet and was in charge of the affairs of the court.
His mission in Daheng World is not over yet.
If a thorough investigation of this case is caused by Wang Wu’s precedent, he will be implicated.
If it involves him, the balance between civil and military affairs will inevitably collapse, and it will inevitably affect the Zhaowu new policy that the emperor has painstakingly started.
Financial and taxation system, maritime system, supervisor education system, Lijia reform...
All of this is carried out in various departments of the court, and he, the chief minister of the cabinet, is still crucial.
If he just took him out, it would not be difficult. He directly supervised the case as the chief minister of the cabinet and destroyed his relatives for justice. This storm would never be brought to his head.
But if this happens, Wen is safe, Wu is suffering, and he will beat the dog in the water, and everyone will do it, and the political balance of the court will inevitably be broken.
This is obviously not something the emperor can tolerate.
If you simply don't investigate, it will inevitably destroy the harsh laws that the emperor has also worked hard to create over the years.
The key to the law is to deterrence. If this deterrence is gone, the disaster will not be replaced by a mere tax case or a mere smuggling case.
The emperor would probably rather investigate the world thoroughly and turbulently, and add another shock to the law, than to cause temporary stability and disasters to last for the sake of temporary stability.
When how to get the best of both worlds?
Thinking of this, Liu Qiyuan couldn't help but frown between his eyebrows.
It seems that only when he stands up can he achieve the best of both worlds!
How can he be removed from this case, and how can he thoroughly investigate the military honors and maintain the political balance of the court without destroying it when he was picked by Liu Qiyuan?
There is only one feasible way...
That is, after Liu Qiyuan stood up and took the initiative to expose the cancer, he wanted to expose his butt and the handle to the emperor. This handle also concerns his life and death.
He was taken out and thoroughly investigated the case would not affect the great strategies of the court. He gave the emperor a huge handle, so the emperor could also investigate Wu Xun with confidence without having to worry about him or those of the former Ming ministers.
This is the best of both worlds.
Only in this way can we ensure that Liu Qiyuan stands safely and steadily in this storm, and that the emperor can feel at ease with him to a certain extent.
Otherwise, if this case continues to evolve, any possibility will obviously not be a good thing for him, Liu Qiyuan.
If you, as Duke Jingguo said, suppressing this matter, not to mention the taboos of the imperial power of the sky pit, just after suppressing this matter, then Liu Qiyuan's butt would be either shit or shit.
This is equivalent to him giving his own handle to the officials and generals all over the world. Whoever wants to do anything wrong in the future just needs to overturn the verdict, or even not have to overturn the verdict.
After all, those group of unrestrained martial arts will definitely not stop illegally, and there will definitely be problems in the future.
As long as there is a problem and once it is investigated, his rebellious son will not be separated. Not to mention being implicated, he will be accused of abuse of power that suppresses this matter.
Or maybe someone else who is in the place is like Zhang Huangyan, a young and vigorous official who is deliberately trained by the emperor, must be a lone courage and righteous spirit, and he will never look back if he hits the wall!
