Zhu Yijun's voice was very loud and his expression was even a bit ferocious. No one in the hall spoke, and they all listened quietly. The entire hall could hear needles falling from the needle, and even the sound of breathing was much smaller.

"Your salary and salary are the people's money and ointment. No one of my people can bully them like this. The Ming Dynasty does not allow such officials to exist!"

"Where is the Ministry of Justice?" Zhu Yijun's eyes swept over everyone coldly and shouted loudly.

Xu Xuemo, the Minister of Justice, trembled and quickly stood up and bowed, "I'm here!"

"This is sentencing from your Ministry of Justice, right?" Zhu Yijun held a file in his hand and said loudly: "Zhao Degan was exiled for three thousand miles, and then he disappeared?"

"Is this the sentencing of your Ministry of Justice? If you sell official positions and accept bribes, you will be exiled for three thousand miles?"

Xu Xuemo was speechless. This was indeed the sentencing of their Ministry of Justice, but it was indeed light. But everyone is civil servants, and they always have to keep a little face, and they also have to recite some incense.

If the punishment is too severe, what will other officials think of themselves? The official voice is also very important!

"I am guilty!" Xu Xuemo hurriedly knelt on the ground and said loudly.

Zhu Yijun looked at Xu Xuemo and did not speak, but turned to look at Sun Piyang, the assistant minister of the Ministry of Justice who came with Xu Xuemo. This person was the successor of the Ministry of Justice trained by Zhu Yijun. After Xu Xuemo went down, he would be him.

"Sun Piyang!" Zhu Yijun shouted, his voice very cold.

"I'm here!" Sun Piyang quickly stood up and said loudly.

Zhu Yijun's call to Sun Piyang directly shocked all the ministers. What is the emperor doing? Although Sun Piyang is the Minister of Justice, there is no place for him to speak here.

The emperor first scolded Xu Xuemo, but now he is also called Sun Piyang, which is not a good sign.

"You are the Minister of Justice. I'm here to ask you, have you ever read the Ming Dynasty's Laws?" Zhu Yijun nodded and asked faintly.

"Go back to Your Majesty, I am familiar with the laws of the Ming Dynasty." Sun Piyang quickly replied.

Zhu Yijun nodded again: "I remember that it seems that the law of officials in the Ming Dynasty also has clear regulations on officials' corruption and abuse of power. Let me tell me how it is written on it?"

As soon as these words were said, everyone's faces were gone, and they were about to be finished.

"When you come back to Your Majesty, according to the Ming Dynasty, both corruption and abuse of power are guilty of both crimes. All the people from the Ministry of Personnel are guilty of corruption and abuse of power. Therefore, they should be punished with both crimes and be severe and severe."

"According to the laws of the Ming Dynasty, those who violate the law will be reduced to one-level officials, pursuing and expelling the title, officials, dismissing the service of the money, those who have paid money will be given a salary, those who receive money will be reduced to one-level, those who have no salary will be reduced to a second-level, and those who have been given a crime will be stopped by one hundred sticks, and those who have stolen money will be subject to stolen money, and those who have stolen money will be subject to serious discussions."

"I always took the stolen goods and took the stolen sword and was 70 miles away."

"All the same as five silos, eighty silos, and three hundred miles away."

"Above fifty taels, one hundred sticks, three thousand miles away."

"Above 80 stalemates, hanged, confiscated property, direct relatives, and exiled military force."

Zhu Yijun nodded, looked at Sun Piyang and said, "Yes, I remember very well. Then I will ask you, the Ministry of Personnel and others, how should I sentence you?"

"When you go back to your Majesty, all the criminals in the Ministry of Personnel should be sentenced to hanging, confiscated family property, direct relatives, and exiled to the army!" Sun Piyang lowered his head and replied loudly, his voice very calmly.

Zhu Yijun nodded with satisfaction, then turned to look at Xu Xuemo: "Xu Aiqing, come and tell me, is this Ming law an arrangement? Since the Ming law clearly stipulates, what is the basis for your Ministry of Justice's sentencing?"

"In my opinion, people from the Ministry of Personnel should not only be hung, but should be peeled and hung outside the Ministry of Personnel's office."

Zhu Yijun's words really scared people. No one has heard of peeling and filling grass for many years. This doesn't work, this is definitely not! It's so scary.

Peeling and filling grass, this was what Zhu Yuanzhang scared civil servants at the beginning.

After the corrupt officials were sentenced to hang, the skin was peeled off and dried, and then filled with straw. Build a flagpole at the entrance of the yamen, and hang the human skin filled with grass on the flagpole and flutter in the wind.

Let the officials later see, your ex died like this.

You can see it every day when you go in and out of the yamen. It scares you to death. It depends on how brave you have.

Now these civil servants have heard of them, but they have never seen them, but it is scary enough to hear them. If they really do this, it would be even more scary. Thinking of this punishment falling on people like me, everyone shuddered.

This won't work!

Thinking of a flagpole buried at the office of the Ministry of Personnel, with more than a dozen human skins filled with straw floating on it, it made people shudder. So everyone's eyes turned to Shen Shixing, and the meaning was very obvious. Master Shen, please speak!

Shen Shixing cursed in his heart, what is this called? What's the matter with me?

It’s not me who is corrupt and abuse of power, it’s not me who is trying the case, and it’s not me who is sentencing it. As a result, I’ve made so many messy things and asked me to take the emperor. Is this what people do?

Although he was reluctant, Shen Shixing still had to stand up. Who made you the chief minister of the cabinet and you had the highest official position?

"Your Majesty, I think this is inappropriate!" Shen Shixing stood up and said with a serious expression. As the only person with a seat besides Zhu Yijun, Shen Shixing's weight is quite heavy.

Zhu Yijun turned his head to look at Shen Shixing, and said with a gloomy face: "Shen Aiqing, what do you think?"

Hearing the emperor's tone of badness, Shen Shixing suddenly became like a fight, but he still said with a stern tongue: "Your Majesty has a saying that I think it is very good. Since the Daming Law has clear regulations, it is better to act according to the Daming Law."

"The court has its own laws, so everything should be done according to laws. If everyone does not act according to laws, then what else should the laws do? I impeached Xu Xuemo, the Minister of Justice, to violate the law."

Zhu Yijun looked at Shen Shixing deeply, and couldn't help but curse in his heart: "Old fox!"

Shen Shixing's words seemed to open the ministers' mouths, and the second assistant to the cabinet Yu Youding also stood up: "I think what Master Shen said is extremely true, and the law of the Ming Dynasty should be based on it."

"I'll review it!"

At this time, the people in the Ministry of Personnel were no longer caring about their lives and deaths. The ministers wished they could die, but they would be worthy of death. As for the Minister of Justice Xu Xuemo, I am sorry for Lao Xu, and I am eager to follow the power of the matter and can't take care of so much.

Zhu Yijun saw all the ministers say this, with a gloomy face and a long time of weather before he said unwillingly: "What do you think so?"

No one speaks.

Zhu Yijun shook his sleeves, walked back to his dragon chaise, and sat down, and said loudly to Sun Piyang: "Sun Piyang, what should we do to abuse the law?"

When everyone heard this, they immediately breathed a sigh of relief and finally suppressed the emperor's evil aura. As for the emperor's crime of punishing Xu Xuemo's abuse of power, it seemed more like an vent after being dissatisfied with desire.

Sun Piyang also knew that it would be impossible not to speak at this time, so he quickly bowed and said, "Your Majesty, those who violate the law should reduce their official duties and pay their salaries or be punished according to the situation. Those who have stolen money will be punished more seriously."

After hearing Sun Piyang's words, Zhu Yijun was stunned. This treatment was really reasonable and well-founded. After looking at Xu Xuemo, Zhu Yijun was not very willing to blame him and said directly: "Then let's get a half-year salary fine!"

In fact, Zhu Yijun also knew that today's incident was not targeting Xu Xuemo, but the Zhao Degan case of the Ministry of Personnel, and also targeting the Ming Dynasty Law. Zhu Yijun called it so fiercely, but the real purpose was to modify the Ming Dynasty Law.

However, this attitude cannot be expressed yet, and the time is not yet ripe.

Xu Xuemo just happened to be the right way. Of course, he was not qualified in his own way. Zhu Yijun would not use this matter to criticize Xu Xuemo, as he would seem too stingy.

Of course, this also has something to do with Zhu Yijun's knowledge that Xu Xuemo has another big thunder to resist.

Although the case of the Minister of Justice has not been revealed, it is almost done. When the case was exposed by the Department of Law and Discipline, Xu Xuemo, the Minister of Justice, will be taken as the end.

After Xu Xuemo left, the one who took over was naturally Sun Piyang, the successor Zhu Yijun had already prepared.

"Thank you Your Majesty!" Xu Xuemo quickly knelt down and kowtowed to thank him.

Trying to get up from the ground, Xu Xuemo almost fell down. Fortunately, Sun Piyang helped him out. The emperor was just angry, and the ministers told him about it, but they still scared Xu Xuemo.

Now that he heard that he had only been fined for half a year, Xu Xuemo suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.

The same is true for Shen Shixing and others. Compared with the emperor's attitude just now, the penalty for half a year is really lighter.

"The case of Zhao Degan of the Ministry of Personnel will be dealt with in accordance with the laws of the Ming Dynasty." Zhu Yijun added lightly.

Naturally no one objected to Zhu Yijun's words at this time. Just let him die like a fool like Zhao Degan. Finally, he comforted the emperor. No one pleaded for Zhao Degan at this time.

Zhu Yijun glanced at Shen Shixing and said, "Shen Aiqing."

"I'm here!" Shen Shixing quickly agreed and bowed.

"The cabinet has drawn up an order that in the future, all yamen inside and outside the capital should be subject to the laws of the Ming Dynasty. There should be no inadvertent measures. Those who violate the law should be dealt with seriously." Zhu Yijun said this indifferently.

However, Shen Shixing and others were in awe of their hearts and were all dealt with according to the Ming Dynasty's laws?

After being an official for so many years, Shen Shixing knows one thing well that the legal principles that the official world pays attention to are nothing more than human relationships. Many times officials will do some small actions here, and it is probably difficult to deal with in the future.

This is not the key, but the Ministry of Law and Discipline.

What if the Department of Law and Discipline Inspection finds several cases? Who knows when will they find out who they are? If everything is handled according to the Ming Dynasty law, corruption will be hanged if it is embezzled for 80 sacrificial powers.

"Yes, I obey the order!"

Although he had many thoughts in his mind, Shen Shixing didn't dare to say it, and he didn't know where to say it. The emperor's request was not unreasonable. How should he object?

"Okay, let's be here today!" Zhu Yijun nodded, left this sentence, and then turned around and left.

The ministers were in a complicated mood, but Shen Shixing had a slight sense of enlightenment. This was all about the increase in salary, and he knew that the money was not that easy to get. The emperor of the Zhu family was all cautious, and it seemed that our emperor was no exception!

If your salary increases, then you will strictly investigate corruption. You can't say you're enough, right?

It took more than a day or two for all officials to cry for poverty. Now the emperor is going to rectify corruption, so now it's time to do so.

"Gei Master, what's going on today?" As they walked out, everyone surrounded Shen Shixing and asked with a little hesitation: "What should we do?"

"Go back and restrain the people below and do your best." Shen Shixing left this sentence, turned around and left.

Although he guessed roughly what was going on in his mind, Shen Shixing could not say it because it was useless. The emperor investigated corruption and said it was useless. This is the great way.

If you are corrupt and dealing with you, it is natural and there is no reason to say.

The emperor wanted to purify the officialdom and the administration of officials. This time Shen Shixing made up his mind not to participate. When he went back, he wrote a memorial to investigate the administration of the emperor, and then clearly stated his attitude.

In Shen Shixing's view, a storm is coming, and the key is to save yourself.

The content of the court discussion soon spread throughout the officialdom, and the imperial edict of the cabinet also spread to various yamen in the capital. Countless people were immediately panicked, especially after learning about the punishments of Zhao Degan and others.

All human traffickers were hanged, their property was confiscated, and their direct blood relatives were exiled.

For a time, the Legal Affairs Department became famous and had reached the point where people hated them. When officials saw the Legal Affairs Department, they all walked around, for fear that they would be targeted, which would be a waste of life.

At this time, another news broke out. The Censorate established a new yamen called the Corruption Department. It is on the same level as the Law and Discipline Department and specializes in corruption among officials. The doctor of the Law and Discipline Department is named Qi Bian.
