Imperial Censorate!
After leaving the palace.
The sky was already dark.
However, Zhan Hui immediately gathered the Imperial Academy, even the Eastern Palace's reading companions…Zhan Shi Fu and the other civil officials!
Such a grand scale.
As a result, the Supreme Court could not accommodate so many officials.
Therefore…
They could only be placed in the higher level Imperial Censorate to be in charge of the trial.
The "Letter of Rectification" had already been copied in large characters and hung in the main hall of the Imperial Censorate's yamen…
At this moment!
As officials entered one after another.
After understanding His Majesty's decree, everyone was terrified by the audacity and incisiveness of the words in the Book of Remuneration!
At the same time.
However, he was also extremely shocked by His Majesty's decision.
One had to know.
The entire Blue Jade Case!
Although there was the highest decree of His Majesty, the core investigation and the search for evidence were also the responsibility of the Embroidered Uniform Guards.
However, in terms of process justice…
That was also a joint hearing of the three divisions!
But now.
As more and more people came, this was no longer a joint trial of the three divisions, but a joint trial of all officials!
"Everyone, have you thought of how to interrogate him?”
As the Minister of Personnel, Zhan Hui could be the head of the civil officials without the Prime Minister system.
Not to mention, Zhan Hui still had the "position" of the Imperial Censor of the Right!
The head of all officials, worthy of his name!
However!
Even so.
After personally accepting the task of His Majesty.
Zhan Hui had a headache.
Because…
His Majesty had personally said that they would be interrogated according to the Book of Remuneration!
He also wanted Su Huai to eat the contents he wrote word by word.
But one had to know…
From the perspective of the officials,
Although there were some places in the [Letter of Remuneration] that were wrong and had the suspicion of offending the ruler!
But the content…
They really couldn't find anything to refute.
First, let's talk about the 'royal clans'!
Forget about Su Huai…
Cut the vassals!
It was even the consensus of all the officials!
This was the consensus of the current imperial grandson!
The current vassal king held military power and ruled a place.
Originally, it was divided according to the official positions.
The provincial administrative commissioner, capital commander, and provincial judge were already the highest!
He was also in charge of administrative, military, and criminal cases…
Separation of powers!
But…
Under Zhu Yuanzhang's Imperial Ancestral Instruction, the three most important officials of the provinces had to report to the Fan King's residence every 15 days?
What was this?
The vassal king already had military power in his hands, but he still had to let the highest officials in various places report to him.
Wasn't he a local tyrant?
Was this not enfeoffment?
Wasn't this retro?
Apart from that.
The annual salary of the Fan King was twenty thousand stones!
The Great Song was so rich, and the annual salary of this Prince was almost twice that of the Great Song.
But there was still one more thing, children and grandchildren, endless!
Basically, this was the descendant of the Zhu family, even if it was a distant descendant with the surname Zhu after a hundred generations.
They could all eat imperial food!
In the hearts of the officials.
This was no different from the entire world supporting the descendants of the royal family!
Then…
Was there anything wrong with what was written in the Book of Remembrance?
That's right!
If that's right, how could they punish him?
This was also why after they came out of the palace.
Zhan Hui, Yang Jing, and the Deputy Minister of the Supreme Court were the reason for this headache!
Let's talk about the second point in the Book of Wrongs.
Abolish the prime minister system!
To be honest.
Even though Zhan Hui was now the head of the officials, the Minister of Personnel and the Censor of the Right Capital, in terms of official position, he would always be a second-grade official!
Furthermore, the power would always be within the Ministry of Personnel and the Imperial Censorate.
As for the past…
As the true head of the officials, he was in charge of the country's political affairs. With a single word, all the officials would follow him. Even the emperor had to give him face as a "prime minister"!
They were also drooling!
As for the other officials, there was no need to mention them.
The prime minister of the Ministry of Central Affairs was there.
It was like…everyone had a goal to strive for!
The Ministry of Education was abolished.
The heads of the six departments were happy for a short time.
However, without the Prime Minister's checks and balance, he would have to take a roundabout route in the middle.
However, they had to face Emperor Hongwu directly.
All these years.
The Emperor's " dismissal " of the position of Minister was almost every three years!
A new generation replacing the old!
All the officials suffered greatly!
You…how are they going to refute you?
The last content.
Blue jade table.
The investigation of the Blue Jade Case was said to be a joint hearing by the three divisions, but the evidence was all with the Jinyiwei.
Moreover, everyone knew very well that there was no concrete evidence to prove Lan Yu's rebellion.
This was a taboo!
If he said his name too much, he would probably be included in the "Blue Jade Case" as an accomplice.
If he said too little, it would be like scratching an itch.
After all.
Not every official was like Su Huai, daring to act without scruples…
After reading the Book of Wrongs for a long time.
The officials felt that they could recite it backwards.
But when it came to trials!
"Lord Zhan, this…seems like we have nowhere to start.”
At this moment, a Hanlin replied helplessly.
"The only thing that can be convicted is offending the Ruler.”
"But…this doesn't meet His Majesty's requirements.”
Do I need you to tell me?
Zhan Hui glanced at the Hanlin and then looked around.
He realized that most of the people were still scratching their heads.
He could not help but look helpless.
"Criminal Su Huaidao!"
At this moment.
The officials who were still watching the injustice were all stunned.
Zhan Hui could not help but frown.
One had to know.
When he came out of the palace, it was already dusk.
The sky was dark now.
According to the original plan, the officials discussed until late at night.
The trial would begin tomorrow.
But he didn't expect it to start now.
Zhan Hui found the voice familiar.
He looked at the door.
As expected!
The leader of the Six Paths Embroidered Uniform Guards was Jiang Meng.
Behind him.
It was Su Huai, who was brought to the 'trial' before he could even sit properly in the prison.
He saw Jiang Meng.
Zhan Hui quickly realized something.
His heart skipped a beat.
Your Majesty…you're already old, but why is your mental strength still so vigorous?
There was no doubt.
At this moment, His Majesty must be in the back hall of the Imperial Censorate.
He could probably hear everything that was happening here clearly!
The officials who reacted like Zhan Hui.
He could not help but have a solemn expression.
"According to His Majesty's decree, the criminal Su Huai has been brought here. Lord Zhan, you can begin the interrogation!”
Zhan Hui said.
He personally sat at the door.
The Embroidered Uniform Guards behind him quickly brought Su Huai to the center.
At this moment…
Su Huai raised his head and looked at the grand scene of the three parties with different expressions.
He sat on the ground without caring about his appearance.
He looked over.
For a moment, the scene was silent!
Most of the officials were still in a daze.
"Lord Zhan! Lord Yang and Lord Cui!"
At this moment, Jiang Meng reminded him again.
Zhan Hui, Yang Jing, and Cui Wenqing immediately looked at each other.
Soon after.
Cui Wenqing, who had the lowest position.
Dong!
He slapped the gavel!
He spoke sternly!
The moment he spoke, he went straight to the point.
"Su Huai, do you know your sins?"
Su Huai looked up.
At this moment, the officials were already sitting neatly and solemnly.
Coupled with the advantage of numbers!
It was truly majestic!
However!
Under the effect of the character halo of tit-for-tat and verbal warfare.
Su Huai didn't feel any emotional pressure. In fact, he felt a kind of rebound, like the moon was falling.
"Milords, is complaining a crime?”
He asked back.
It was as if a switch had been turned on.
"How dare you!"
"You have a glib tongue. You didn't respect the ruler and wrote such words that offended the heavens and the ruler's father.”
"It's a heinous crime of disloyalty and unfilial!”
Su Huai raised his head and easily returned the appetizer.
"You've already mentioned this crime before, and you even used it to kill me.”
"But the heavens have already responded to the snow in summer.”
"If you feel wronged and beat the Dengwen Drum to express your grievances, it will be considered disloyal and unfilial.”
"Why don't you suggest that His Majesty smash those two drums?”
As soon as he said this.
All the officials were furious!
In the back hall of the Imperial Censorate.
Zhu Yuanzhang was sitting quietly with his grandson Zhu Yunwen.
He suddenly clenched his fists!
