Joy of Life: I am a Han Dynasty succubus, and I rebel from the beginning

Chapter 152: Investigation of bird hunting, unexpectedly found the Qin family
I heard that Liu Hong was a soldier and was very murderous.

I didn’t expect the rumors to be true!

This request could not be refused, and Deng Ziyue nodded vigorously.

"Then the Supervisory Council will cooperate with the East Factory to provide information, and the East Factory will arrest the person."

Liu Hong clapped his hands.

Deng Ziyue hesitated, just like his other colleagues in the Supervisory Yuan.

There is a natural incompatibility with the Dongchang, a competitor of ours.

"Director Deng, if you are unwilling to provide the documents, are you sure that the Supervisory Commission dares to arrest all the officials who have committed fraud in the past three years?"

Liu Hong spoke meaningfully, and pointed at the group of gloomy eunuchs following behind Hong Zhu.

Deng Ziyue had a gloomy expression and stood there motionless.

The people in the Supervisory Council behind him didn't have any good ideas for the time being.

"Let them do the questionnaire and arrest people!"

Fan Xian's voice suddenly came from the Imperial Examination Hall.

"grown ups!"

Deng Ziyue couldn't help but speak.

Fan Xian also felt a little uncomfortable. After all, officials had a natural aversion to eunuchs interfering in government affairs.

But after being beaten many times by Emperor Qing, Fan Xian finally understood something.

Pull one faction and beat the other!
The people Liu Hong wants to capture include not only the Second Prince and the Eldest Princess.

It even included the Qin family, the prince, his father-in-law Lin Ruofu, and even the officials under his father Fan Jian.

Deng Ziyue looked at Fan Xian and had no choice but to take a step back.

"Submit the list of people who cheated in the imperial examinations over the past three years to the East Factory."

When Deng Ziyue said this, his heart was bleeding.

This represented not only a concession from the Censorate, but also the official entry of the East Factory into the vision of all officials after it became a secret agency.

Part of the power of the Control Yuan was thus stripped away.

"Thank you, Director Deng."

With Liu Hong's help, Hong Zhu did not show any arrogance and clasped his fists to express his gratitude.

He left with a group of people from the Eastern Depot.

A vigorous arrest operation began in Kyoto.

Liu Hongding's scope was also very ambiguous. It included officials who had cheated in the imperial examinations over the past three years and a group of literati who had barely become seventh-rank officials.

Even if he is really talented, he is only of the fifth rank.

It just caused a slight pain to all parties involved, as they lost a fresh blood, but it did not cause any serious damage.

These officials will not openly stop the East Factory from handling cases.

There was a sudden commotion in the alleys of Kyoto.

When countless officials were escorted out by the Dongchang guards, they still threatened them in a timid way, asking who was the big boss standing behind them.

However, in front of the Dongchang men who were eager to make achievements, it was completely insignificant.

They come from the palace. Do you have the ability to let the people behind the scenes attack them in the palace?

What Liu Hong said was correct. The prisons of Dali Temple, Ministry of Justice and Supervisory Yuan were almost filled with officials.

The East Depot also had to requisition civilian houses to detain the offending officials.

The main reason was that Liu Hong was still willing to give this group of officials some dignity and required that each official have a separate cell.

Liu Hong looked at the long list in his hand, which contained approximately six hundred names, and his heart was shocked.

Many of these officials have become the backbone of their respective ministries. If they are arrested, the operation of various departments in Kyoto will slow down a lot.

"What to do next?"

Fan Xian's face also looked quite ugly.

He didn't expect that these powerful people would eat in such an ugly way.

According to convention, the Golden List includes two hundred scholars every year. The Qing Kingdom relied on the inner treasury and had money, so it included three hundred people.

However, only 900 people were recruited in three years. As a result, this group of powerful people almost occupied all the places, leaving very few places for scholars from poor families.

After all, many officials are relatives of the powerful, and Liu Hong doesn't want to touch them for the time being, so as not to tear his face.

"boom……"

Fan Xian slammed his hands on the table and spoke in hatred.

"This bunch of parasites! If this continues, the Qing Kingdom will no longer be a country."

Both of them are time travelers, but Fan Xian is a master of literature and Liu Hong is an undergraduate student in management.

But everyone knows that if the mobility of the upper class in a country stagnates and the talented people in the lower class cannot be controlled, then the country will definitely be in turmoil.

After all, scholars from poor families should not think that they are just poor people from poor backgrounds.

That group of people can't even afford to eat, so how could they allow one person to leave production and go to school?

These poor families were mostly small landlord families in their hometown, the foundation of the dynasty's rule.

Perhaps this force cannot interfere in the prefectures and counties, but it still has considerable influence in the countryside.

Liu Hong ignored Fan Xian. After all, the more corrupt the Qing Kingdom was, the higher the chance of his rebellion being successful.

"Something is wrong! Why are there more than 600 people on the list, 200 of whom are Qin family retainers, and only over 100 are Lin Xiang's?"

Liu Hong's brows gradually furrowed, as he knew that the Qin family was interfering in the officialdom.

But I didn’t expect the influence to be so great.

Relying on the fight between the crown prince and the second prince, the Qin family played both sides and also turned to the eldest princess, and unexpectedly became the biggest winner.

"Let me see!"

Fan Xian was stunned. In his impression, the Qin family was a family deeply rooted in military power.

This time, Qin Heng asked him to give him a list, but Fan Xian didn't read it. He just declined by citing Emperor Qing's order.

Unexpectedly, the Qin family also has considerable influence in the officialdom.

"I will go to the palace to find His Majesty immediately!"

Fan Xian no longer has any illusions about the father-son relationship with Emperor Qing, but he still has deep feelings for the people of Qing.

The First Military Merit Family also has considerable influence in the officialdom.

What kind of concept is this! Want to rebel?
Even though Emperor Qing intended to support Liu Hong in his competition with the Qin family, he did not let Liu Hong serve as the Vice Minister of the Ministry of Personnel and the Ministry of Revenue. This was because he was concerned about the generals.

"It's useless! His Majesty will only think that I am the one who instigated the conflict and wanted to cause a party dispute. Apart from a reprimand, there is no other benefit."

Liu Hong shook his head. He knew Emperor Qing too well.

He was confident that his status as a grandmaster could subdue all forces in the world, but at the same time he was suspicious that one party in the court was too powerful, so he tried to strike a balance.

"No matter what! I have to try it eventually. If Minister Lin leaves, then the Qin family can occupy a large number of official positions."

Fan Xian gritted his teeth and held on to the last glimmer of hope.

He hoped that Emperor Qing would give up his plan to depose the Prime Minister, take the balance of the court into consideration, and suppress the Qin family.

"You have to go, I won't go!"

Liu Hong shook his head like a rattle, picked up a pen and wrote a letter of impeachment.

"Emperor Qing wants to monopolize power now, and he wants you to be a lone minister, which is the most important position in his eyes."

Fan Xian looked at Liu Hong deeply.

He is not a fool, this is indeed what Emperor Qing thinks.

But Liu Hong’s ideas are not so selfless.

He was squeezed out of the Ministry of War by Qin Heng. Doesn't he have any thoughts of revenge in his heart?

After Prime Minister Lin left, the Qin family occupied a large number of official positions.

Emperor Qing naturally had to readjust the balance. Old Man Qin had been in control of the Privy Council for decades and it was flawless.

But the position of Minister of War has always existed.

Qin Heng forced the Minister of War He Kuang to resign three times in a row, but each time was suppressed by Emperor Qing.

In the eyes of the Qin family, it was normal that Emperor Qing had some reservations and was unwilling to hand over most of the military power to them.

But Fan Xian understood Emperor Qing and Liu Hong, and knew that this position had always been prepared by Emperor Qing for Liu Hong.

Fan Xian rushed to the palace, hoping to persuade Emperor Qing to stop.

"Humph! I've been in this world for almost twenty years, but I still can't get rid of the bookish and idealistic spirit in my bones."

Liu Hong snorted coldly, shook his head and continued writing his memorial.

Hong Zhu had already been waiting for Liu Hong in the compound of the Ministry of Justice without knowing when.

A large number of bandits followed behind him, and one could faintly smell the blood in the air.

It seems that a lot of private soldiers and guards were killed when they were arresting people.

"Thank you, Eunuch Hong, for helping me deliver this memorial to His Majesty."

In front of outsiders, Liu Hong still maintained a stranger relationship with Hong Zhu and spoke with a bow.

"You are joking, my Lord. I have written the memorial, and I can report it to you."

Hong Zhu took the memorial respectfully and left the Ministry of Justice with the Dongchang men.
