King’s Landing: The Proud Empress

Chapter 222: refuse to get up

  Chapter 222 Refusing to get up

  The words were resolute, and all the ministers who heard them fell silent for a while, not daring to speak.

  Prime Minister Meng and Shi Feng looked at each other, and both stepped forward to take the two booklets that Jun Li handed over.

   Turn it over, sure enough, from big to small, all the officials in the capital alone have been recorded, and outside the capital, even the county magistrates in the localities are all recorded.

   Seeing this, the two of them felt huge waves in their hearts.

  Such a detailed record, even officials in small places have not missed it. How huge and terrifying manpower is needed to do it?

  The two of them suddenly thought of the dark pavilion in the rivers and lakes. I am afraid that only the dark pavilion has this strength.

   Could it be that His Majesty bought it from the Dark Pavilion?

  The two of them thought about it, and this was probably the only possibility. But how much does it cost?

  The two of them were extremely distressed. The charges for the secret cabinet were never cheap, not to mention such a huge amount of information. I am afraid that the price...is extremely terrifying, right?

   Both of them glared at Junli, it was so expensive, why not let them investigate it!

  But the two also knew in their hearts that if they were asked to investigate, they might not know when they would find out.

  After thinking clearly, the two sighed silently at the same time. Money, money, really is king!

   "Minister, obey the order!" The four of them cupped their hands at the same time, and Prime Minister Meng and Shi Feng handed the two booklets in their hands to Lord Yang and Lord Ye, motioning them to watch.

  After reading it, Master Ye leaned towards Junli without any trace, and said in a low voice, "Your Majesty, such a large-scale dismissal...wouldn't this be a good time?"

  Master Ye was referring to the impending imperial examination and the matter of her birthday banquet.

  Jun Li lowered her eyes, she naturally knew what kind of consequences such an action might cause, but if not, how would the court inject fresh blood. At that time, even if the new round of candidates enter the court as an official, they will definitely be targeted by those corrupt officials, and she still knows that the officials will protect each other. If those officials who were corrupt and broke the law were not dismissed, it would be a waste of effort to revise the imperial examinations.

  Instead of this, it would be better to clean up those officials who were corrupt and broke the law early. She can clean up all those officials without asking for a while, even if only one tenth of them can be dismissed, she feels satisfied.

   "Remove some officials who hold important positions first, and others, take your time." Jun Li's voice was faint, and only Prime Minister Meng standing beside her could hear it.

  Prime Minister Meng nodded, agreeing with Junli's words.

  Master Ye thought about it, and felt that what Junli said was good, so he didn't say anything more.

They didn't say anything, but the officials on the side all reacted and looked at each other one by one. Except for the veterans of the three dynasties who spoke just now, and a few ministers who were at a loss, they all made a loud noise. Kneeling down, he shouted, "Your Majesty, think twice!"

  Seeing this, Jun Li's face was expressionless, but his eyes darkened.

With a cold snort, "The emperor has thought about it for a long time. This emperor has made up his mind on this matter. You don't need to say anything more. Mr. Prime Minister, General Shi, Mr. Yang, Mr. Ye, hurry up and arrest those corrupt officials. It depends on how to punish them. In addition, if there are honest and honest officials who are dedicated to the people and think that they should be promoted, they will also submit memorials, and the emperor will carefully review them."

  Prime Minister Meng and the others nodded, looked at the situation now, and cast a light glance at Junli, but saw that her face was calm, without any waves, and she had a domineering air that the world was in my hands.

   Prime Minister Meng nodded, looked at the ministers and shouted, "Get up soon!"

  Prime Minister Meng is still very majestic among the ministers. After all, he is the prime minister, the head of all officials, and the majesty and momentum honed in the officialdom all the year round are not so easy to ignore.

  The ministers were shaken by Prime Minister Meng's sound, and then another sharp gaze shot at them.

  The ministers were shocked and turned their heads away, only to see Shi Feng looking at them with sharp eyes, with undisguised bloodthirsty intent in his eyes.

  Just for a moment, all the ministers froze.

   "Why, don't you want to get up?" Shi Feng's deep voice sounded, and the hearts of the ministers who heard it trembled, and a few timid ones immediately got up from the ground.

  The other ministers looked at each other, bowed their heads together, and refused to get up.

   Seeing this, Shi Feng's eyes showed killing intent, and he took a step forward, causing the ministers to tremble instantly.

  One of the more courageous ministers raised his neck and said, "Your Majesty, such a large-scale dismissal and exile of officials will make our Beirong country turbulent, and the people's lives will be unsettled."

   "I hope His Majesty will take it back!" Countless ministers kowtowed.

   Seeing this scene, Jun Li sneered inwardly. He said it so grandly, maybe it was for himself and the family behind him!

   Stepping up, she came to the minister who had just spoken, raised the toe of her shoe and rested it on her chin, forcing her to raise her head.

  The type that can’t be found even if one is thrown in the crowd.

   "Master Yuan Haiyuan, Minister of the Household Department?" Jun Li raised his full red lips and smiled lightly.

  Yuan Hai's heart trembled, and he nodded.

  A gleam of cruelty flashed across Junli's eyes, and he said slowly, "Master Yuan, I remember that you have been the servant of the household department for seven years and twenty-nine days in April, right?"

  Hearing this, small beads of sweat suddenly appeared on Yuan Hai's head, and he smiled sheepishly, "It's been a long time, and I don't remember it anymore. I didn't expect Your Majesty to remember it so clearly."

  The ministers behind were all shocked when they heard the words, they raised their heads involuntarily, and looked towards Junli.

   I didn't expect His Majesty to remember this kind of thing so clearly. What is she going to do?

  All the ministers don't think that Junli is just talking, and there must be some purpose. Junli's words just now, and Master Zhang's corpse came to mind...

  It seems that His Majesty is going to take Master Yuan again.

  The ministers all bowed their heads and silently mourned for Yuan Hai.

  But most of the ministers are worried about their next fate, is it life? or die?

  If they want to live, they must no longer obstruct His Majesty's decision just now, but in that case, they will most likely be dismissed or exiled, and more likely...executed.

  If His Majesty's decision is obstructed, then the one who greets them is probably the end of Master Zhang just now.

The ministers were flustered, but Jun Li said, "For more than seven years, Mr. Yuan, you have been the servant of the household department, and you have not done anything during that time. Except for the morning court, you rest and doze off in the household department every day. .When something happened, I handed it over to the people below, but I never dealt with it myself. Oh, by the way, you did one thing two years ago, that is, you took a Li
