Chapter 482 The Style of the Court in the Age of Martial Arts

Chapter 482 The style of the court in the age of martial arts

The inspector did not travel all over the world alone. Most places were left to his subordinates. Liu Yong only traveled to one area by himself, and of course the focus was Lingzhou. Now that he was too tormented to stay in Lingzhou, Liu Yong just wandered around other places and went straight back to the capital.

He was holding back his anger. He wanted to ask the Political Affairs Hall to rectify the messy newspapers, but also to severely accuse Xue Mu. He even felt that Xue Mu would not only be dismissed from his post, but also interrogated!

As soon as he returned to the capital angrily, an acquaintance met him and asked with a smile: "Shilang Liu is a romantic man in Lingzhou and makes others envious. Why are you back so soon?"

"I'm a coquettish ass!"

"Ah, I made a mistake. Liu Shilang likes a good family."

"I..." Liu Yong walked away sadly and angrily, without even returning home, and went straight to the prince's mansion.

Ji Wuyou looked at him intently for a long time, making him feel frightened, and then slowly took out two memorials and threw them to him: "This is the content of the meeting in the political hall tomorrow morning. Eunuch Li distributed it. You should also read it." .”

Liu Yong had an ominous premonition in his heart and opened the memorial with trembling hands.

I never dared to imagine that before I could angrily reprimand Xue Mu for dereliction of duty in the court, Xue Mu’s attack on him arrived first: “Xue Mu, the Marquis of Changxin and Lord of Lingzhou City, impeached the inspector Liu Yong for dereliction of duty and violating the law. Since Lingzhou, I have been entangled with people all day long about the brothel, and Lingzhou officials have not asked any questions in the assessment. There are hundreds of officials in Lingzhou, and it is difficult to conduct detailed inspections in a month, and they leave in two days. It can be seen that they are all just a formality and perfunctory. Damn it! You are so perfunctory, how can you be responsible for important matters of inspection and evaluation? I would like to request that the imperial envoy be replaced, otherwise the country's inspection and evaluation will be ruined by villains for thousands of years!"

Below is Concubine Liu's elegant handwriting written on behalf of the emperor: "Distributing the court meeting."

It is still a court meeting, where all officials discuss together, rather than a small-scale meeting in the political hall...

Liu Yong looked up to the sky and sprayed out a cloud of blood mist, and fainted immediately.

Ji Wuyou sighed secretly. He had never underestimated Xue Mu, but he never thought that Xue Mu would play this trick again. The key to this chapter is that Liu Yong really only went to cause trouble for Xue Mu, and other assessment tasks were just a formality. If he hadn't been so overwhelmed by the reporters, he might have been more meticulous, but he was so tortured that he forgot about other things... He ended his work and returned to Beijing in two days, and he was the subject of criticism.

The newspaper's smear campaign is just a step, and forcing Liu Yong's own flaws is the real intention.

Trouble this time...

It’s not like Xue Mu is unmanned in the court... Ji Wuyou can almost foresee that Liu Yong’s dirty information about Xue Mu will be discussed together with this bullet, turning a formal incident of official supervision into mutual attacks. , the two parties are at odds.

This kind of quarrel is endless... By the time the quarrel comes to an end, I am afraid that after a few months, Xue Mu will be able to make other achievements in the city director position and stop anyone from talking.

Simply changing to another inspector and not arguing about this kind of thing may be the most accurate way to break the situation. Ji Wuyou quickly made a decision.

Early the next morning, when hundreds of officials went to court, Liu Yong stood in the queue sickly, facing the strange looks of countless colleagues.

This is really a big star. There is no one more popular than him in recent days...

Behind the dragon chair, there is a small curtain. Eunuch Li is in front of the curtain, and Concubine Liu is hidden behind the curtain. The best thing about the court in this world is that there are no officials paying homage, and there is no rule of leaving the court when there is something to do. Liu Wanxi said neatly behind the curtain: "Last night, we distributed the matters discussed in the court today. , what do you think?"

When Liu Yong came out, there was no rule of kneeling and he bowed and said: "I have neglected my duty and am willing to be punished. I will choose another capable person to be the imperial envoy again."

Liu Wanxi was stunned for a moment, but she didn't expect them to cut off the strong man's wrist so straightforwardly, so she asked Su Duancheng, "What do you think, Prime Minister Su?"

Su Duancheng was obviously a member of Ji Wuyou's party. The communication had already been completed. After hearing the words, he answered directly: "Yes, I would like to invite you all to discuss the new inspector. But is there anything that Liu Shilang did before that needs to be reported to the noble concubine? "

Liu Yong immediately held out a large pile of materials: "Xue Mu, the lord of Lingzhou City, has not done a single political matter since he took office. Here are the minutes of political affairs and the inquiry records of Lingzhou City officials over the past year. Please take a look at it."

Liu Wanxi did not ask anyone to pick up the materials. Instead, she shook her head and said, "A new memorial arrived in Lingzhou this morning. Eunuch Li will read it to you."

Eunuch Li took out a memorial from his sleeve and read with a smile: "Xue Mu, the Marquis of Changxin and the Lord of Lingzhou City, said: I am a sloppy country, I don't understand the regulations of the court, and many government affairs are unclear. I have made many omissions in the past few years. I feel ashamed and have no place." . For example, I originally thought that the administration of officials was a matter of inspection, and the city lord should not interfere too much. However, recently I saw that the inspection officials were neglecting their duties, and I was very worried. I took the liberty to investigate the subordinate officials myself, and I gained a lot..."

Liu Yong almost wanted to yell at him for being shameless! You haven't done anything, so can you just say that it's because you don't know the rules and regulations and you don't know the rules?

It's a pity that no one can listen to him scolding his mother now. Everyone's mind is attracted by the words that follow: "...Lingzhou's style collection order named three people who are Xiaolian and Lian. I sent someone to verify that they are all from the fish and meat village. They disrespect the teacher and do not respect the teacher." The foster parents only spent huge sums of money to buy the Fengcai order and promoted them from top to bottom, and they turned out to be filial and honest. But the inspectors did not conduct detailed inspections and just judged them as excellent..."

Baiguan's eyes fell on Liu Yong's face, and it hurt.

"There are also agricultural orders, which corrupt the high-quality seeds and ruin the harvest of Lingzhou; the city construction officials, corrupt even the bluestone slabs, collude up and down, enrich their own pockets, which is shocking, but the inspectors turn a blind eye. I intend to strictly manage, clearly Uphold the Dharma and restore peace and tranquility to Lingzhou..."

There are a lot more behind, all of which are evidence materials. Eunuch Li read slowly, and Liu Yong had a little tinnitus and couldn't hear.

This memorial originally highlighted the corruption of officialdom caused by the city lord's indifference, which was Xue Mu's own fault. But in this context, it turned out to be proof that he, the imperial envoy, had nothing to do with his corpse. City Lord Xue was still wiping his ass for things the imperial envoy didn’t do and was dedicated to serving the public good...

At least it can prove that the city lord is doing something. Otherwise, there is so much evidence one by one that it is not possible to say that he does nothing. It is untenable to say that he does nothing.

After finally waiting for Eunuch Li to finish reading, Li Yingqing said leisurely: "Marquis Changxin sent me a letter a few days ago, saying that he wanted to pave roads and design an underground drainage system in Lingzhou City. At that time, the inspector did not arrive in Lingzhou... ...If I say that this city lord doesn’t do anything, I won’t accept it.”

Zheng Yezhi waved his hand and said: "Come on, what else is there to discuss about this matter? The new inspector can just go elsewhere. That's all in Lingzhou. I understand Xue Mu's level."

Ji Wuyou: "..."

Damn it, this is a court, not a party, how do you express your stance like this? What does "got it" and "that's all" mean?

Chen Qianzhen stroked his beard and said: "Okay, okay, let's discuss the new candidate for the inspector. Lingzhou doesn't need to be concerned. People like Xue Mu can't rule a small Lingzhou? Are you not afraid of people's jokes?"

"..." Ji Wuyou took a deep breath and faintly felt Liu Yong's desire to vomit blood.

This group of so-called "Five Ministers who assist the country" really treat the court as a gangster?

Liu Wanxi held back her smile behind the curtain: "That's it. As for the new candidate..."

"Wait a minute!" Liu Yong was so angry that he ignored the occasion and shouted loudly: "I still have something to report!"

Liu Wanxi was interrupted, and Feng Yan became cold: "I haven't punished you for dereliction of duty, and you are still yelling at the court?"

Who is derelict in their duties? Liu Yong was inexplicably sad and angry. Instead of talking about malfeasance, he instead said: "Lingzhou Daily spreads rumors to stir up trouble and distorts speech. It has long deviated from the proper attitude of information reporting. I suggest that it must be rectified and the newspaper's speech should be included in the court's supervision. Otherwise, once this wind blows up, the world will be in chaos..."

Before he finished speaking, Xia Houdi stood up and said, "Are you impeaching me, the editor-in-chief of this newspaper?"

Liu Yong frowned and said: "The chief police officer has so many things to do all day long that he has no time to take into account the little tricks of some witches..."

"I will rectify the internal affairs of the newspaper. If the newspaper is suspected of smearing Liu Shilang, I will ask them to publish an apology in the newspaper. If others want to take the opportunity to point fingers in the six doors, don't blame me for turning against you!"

"..." Ji Wuyou covered his head.

Many ministers watched the court turn into a farce, but they didn't even feel the violation.
