Chapter 225: Hai Yushi's words come true (Subscribe)

Miyun County was blocked by heavy snow.

County government office.

An angry shout was heard in the back court.

Xu Fan had no time to react and was kicked to the ground by Xu Jie, who was full of anger.

Xu Fan rolled twice on the ground, then immediately got up and knelt on the ground, raised his head and looked at his furious father in surprise.

"Father……"

Xu Jie waved his hands angrily.

"I'm not your father!"

"I didn't raise a rebellious son like you!"

At this moment, seeing that Xu Fan still didn't realize what he had done, he actually brought a group of people from Miyun to greet him.

Xu Jie was really furious.

And facing the father who was always kind to others in the past, he suddenly became furious.

Xu Fan was also frightened silly.

Kneeling on the ground, full of doubts, but not daring to speak.

Xu Jie looked down at Xu Fan, then at the attendants and guards standing beside him.

"Take off his official robes!"

"Bring me the whip!"

Everyone present was also frightened by what Xu Jie had just done. Now when they suddenly heard Xu Jie's call, they were stunned on the spot.

Xu Jie's eyes widened and he shouted angrily: "Quick! Are you all deaf?"

The guards rushed forward and stripped off Xu Fan's bright red official robe, and someone handed a horsewhip to Xu Jie.

The chief aide was the first to react and quickly stood in front of Xu Jie.

"Master Xiang!"

"You can't do this to the eldest son!"

Xu Jie was extremely angry at this moment. He held the horse whip in his hand and glared at his staff and advisors: "Get out of my way!"

As he spoke, Xu Jie pushed his aide aside.

Then he walked forward holding the whip and turned behind Xu Fan.

Snapped!
A loud whip sounded.

Xu Fan fell forward to the ground in an instant, sweating profusely and trembling all over.

Xu Jie was furious: "I am not afraid even if you kill as many people as you can."

"What I fear most is your stupidity!"

"You're so stupid that I still can't understand what you've done!"

"Kneel down! Don't move!"

Xu Fan's face flushed red at this moment, but he could only grit his teeth and force himself to get up from the ground, arching his back towards his angry father.

Snapped!
Another whip came down.

There were two long whip marks on Xu Fan's back.

Under the whip marks, the skin was torn and blood was constantly flowing out.

clap clap clap!
There were several more whippings.

Xu Fan's entire back was completely unsightly, with not a single intact spot.

And he.

But he just gritted his teeth and refused to move at all.

His entire face was covered with veins, and everything from his face to his body was red.

Xu Fan knelt straight on the ground with scars all over his back, shaking uncontrollably.

The staff and advisors standing by had already been frightened by Xu Jie's violent behavior, and were looking away with horror on their faces.

The guards and followers buried their heads deeply.

Xu Jie cursed angrily: "You want to be the prefect of Shuntian, your father has arranged it for you."

"You must follow the example of Changping in Miyun, and Yan Shaoting will also send the proposal to your father."

"You want to create another Changping, and your father has agreed to it, so you can go all out."

"How could you not take a look at the current situation in the court?"

"Now the Yan family has long been praised by everyone as a loyal and good family. How dare you now, in the capital, under the feet of the emperor, condone the people of Miyun to force them to go out to work in broad daylight!"

"Those who froze to death were the people of Miyun County, but they were also the people of Shuntian Prefecture, and even more so the people of our Ming Dynasty and the subjects of our Ming Emperor!"

Snapped!
clap clap!

After cursing for a while, Xu Jie whipped him a few more times.

He didn't look distressed at all.

"Now that the connection between Miyun and the city is open, you are still hanging out with the Miyun gang."

"Welcome as father?"

"Aren't you afraid that once the news spreads, Miyun will be covered with frozen corpses, the people will wail, and the people will suffer. If it spreads to the capital and reaches the ears of the Yan family,

"Aren't you afraid that the Yan family will use this matter to defeat my Xu family?"

"Until now, you still don't know how to draw a clear line between yourself and others!"

"stupid!"

"madness!"

"ignorance!"

"Extremely stupid!"

clap clap clap!
Snapped!
Xu Jie cursed angrily and whipped him again.

At this moment.

Xu Fan finally couldn't hold on any longer and fell softly to the ground.

At this time, the chief aide finally couldn't help but rushed forward, hugged Xu Fan, whose eyelids were drooping, and called for several guards and followers.

"Master Xiang!"

"No more fighting!"

"If the fight continues, the eldest son will really be gone..."

When the aide spoke, his voice was already tearful.

He quickly called for people to get bedding and clothes from the house and covered Xu Fan, whose entire back was covered with wounds.

A group of people blocked their way.

Then he looked at Xu Fan who was lying in the arms of his aide.

Xu Jie could only angrily throw the horsewhip covered in blood and flesh in his hand to the ground.

Xu Fan's face was pale at this time. He was sweating profusely and his lips were trembling without a trace of blood as he looked at Xu Jie.

"Son...son..."

"My son failed to notice... He knew he was wrong..."

"Secretly... Secretly, everything... son..."

"Please enlighten me, father!"

"My son was kept in the dark!"

At last.

Xu Fan's eyes widened, some color returned to his face, and he roared in grief and anger.

Then he fainted completely in the arms of his aide.

The staff advisor's eyelids twitched, and he quickly reached out to touch Xu Fan's nose.

Finally I breathed a sigh of relief.

He looked up at Xu Jie.

"Prime Minister, the eldest son has fainted..."

A trace of pity flashed across Xu Jie's eyes, but he still turned around with a stern face and looked at the guards and entourage around him.

"Go to the main hall!"

"Capture the Magistrate of Miyun, the County Assistant, the County Registrar, and all the other officials!"

"Miyun gentry present here, do not let anyone go!"

The guards and attendants immediately bowed and accepted the order, then drew their swords, turned around, and rushed out of the back court to the main hall of Miyun County Court.

At this time, Xu Jie turned around and looked at Xu Fan who had fainted.
He stared at the motionless Xu Fan silently.

After a long, long time.

A long sigh.

Xu Jie waved his hand and said, "Send this rebellious son to the carriage. When I have finished dealing with things here, I will return to the capital to apologize to the emperor!"

After saying that.

Xu Jie turned around and went to the main hall of Miyun County Government.

On the road.

Xu Jie's face was gloomy. He had severely punished his eldest son, whom he had high hopes for, partly because of his son's stupidity and audacity, but more because of the scars on his back.

In times of crisis.

We should take drastic measures.

Carry out mass killing and deal with everything decisively.

This was the method he used when he was demoted to Yanping Prefecture to deal with those who stole mineral veins.

And in the court of Miyun County.

From the Magistrate of Miyun County onwards, everyone was already in a state of panic and speculation because of the arrival of Lord Xu today.

When the Xu family's guards and followers rushed out from the back court with knives in their hands and surrounded them.

Just a pig.

I also understand what the current situation is.

The Xu family wanted to abandon them and really abandoned their children to bear all the blame.

But the knife with a cold glow was right in front of them, and everyone could only shout and scream but did not dare to move at all.

Xu Jie, with a gloomy face, finally walked out of the back court and stood in the court.

The magistrate of Miyun immediately fell to his knees on the ground with a thud.

The people around him also knelt down one after another.

"Mr. Ge!"

"Please forgive us, Lord!"

"We will do whatever you ask us to do. We only ask you to spare our lives..."

Xu Jie, who was standing under the plaque hanging high in the courtroom, had a gloomy face.

Looking at the people kneeling on the ground begging for mercy, Xu Jie's eyes did not even change.

"late."

"You should understand that I can no longer keep you..."

The magistrate of Miyun and others trembled all over and raised their heads with horror on their faces.

But Xu Jie waved his hand.

He held the gavel and slammed it hard.

"I am the Deputy Minister of the Great Ming Cabinet, appointed by the Emperor to be in charge of all state affairs."

"I have heard that Miyun has changed. The people are grieving. It seems that they are going to suffer and there will be a civil unrest."

"We have now found that the whole Miyun County was in collusion with one another, disobeying the orders of their superiors and harming and exploiting the people."

"Now that civil unrest is imminent, we need to quell it."

"I abide by the laws of the Ming Dynasty and will execute you first and report later. I will lend you your heads to calm the people of Miyun who are in a state of panic."

Speaking of it.

Xu Jie glared at the knife-wielding guards and followers present.

"cut!"

Snapped.

A token fell to the ground.

A cold wind blew in from outside.

Roll up the strong smell of blood.

The officers of Miyun County Court were so frightened that they knelt on the ground, trembling all over and not daring to raise their heads, just by taking a look at the heads and blood all over the courtroom.

At this time, the staff and advisors also put the unconscious Xu Fan into the carriage and rushed back from outside.

"Prime Minister, the eldest son has been sent to the carriage."

Xu Jie nodded and looked at the officers kneeling on the ground.

Then he began to give instructions to his staff and advisors.

"I still need to return to the capital to see the emperor and make a report."

"You shall take over my duties and confiscate the property of the officials and prisoners in this area, and put it into the treasury. You shall also recall the people from all places and order them to return home."

"The government spent money to buy grain and charcoal to provide relief to the people."

"No one should disobey, otherwise they will be treated as rioters, no mistakes!"

The staff and advisors immediately bowed and accepted the order.

The surviving Miyun County officials and clerks present all kowtowed and responded to the order.

Xu Jie walked all the way out of Miyun County Government Office.

He arrived in front of the carriage accompanied only by two guards.

At this moment.

Xu Jie felt dizzy and staggered forward, holding on to the carriage tightly with both hands, so he did not fall down.

The attendants and coachmen were in a panic for a while before they finally lifted Xu Jie onto the carriage.

Xu Jie drove Xu Fan, who was lying unconscious in the carriage.

My heart couldn't help but twitch.

He looked outside with a gloomy face.

"go!"

"Return to Beijing as quickly as possible."

"Don't stop for a moment, go directly to Xiyuan to ask for permission to see the emperor!"

Outside the carriage, the coachman responded.

Under the escort of two followers.

The sound of driving.

The carriage began to rush back towards the capital.

And in the capital.

As the road clears.

The news finally came in continuously.

Countless people in Miyun froze to death, but the government still forced them to work outside in the wind and snow. This shocked the entire court and almost caused an uproar.

After a strange silence.

Finally, someone thought of Hai Rui, who had recently been stirring up trouble among the censors and civil and military officials in the capital, and the contents of his memorial to the emperor regarding the governance of the country.

"One word becomes a prophecy!"

"His words have come true!"

"In the 200 years of the Guo Dynasty and the 40 years of our dynasty, has there ever been such a tragic thing?"

“A cruel government is more ferocious than a tiger!”

"Governance must be clean and honest!"

"..."

this moment.

The civil and military officials and censors who were originally fighting, all pressed the pause button.

then.

Countless memorials were like the heavy snow a few days ago.

They poured into the cabinet and into the Wanshou Palace in the Western Garden.

A few days ago, they were still arguing about a memorial from Hai Rui.

But now.

What Hai Rui insisted on actually appeared before everyone's eyes.

As a result, those civil and military officials who had been refuting Hai Rui suddenly lost all face.

If we really allow Miyun to do this.

Isn't it just what Hai Rui said that they are not good officials or good people?

So in this new round of impeachment.

The civil and military officials who refuted Hai Rui had sharper words and more powerful condemnations, almost overshadowing the censors who had also initiated the impeachment, as if they were going to snatch their jobs.

only.

above the hall.

The Cabinet, Six Ministries, Five Temples, Nine Ministers, Five Military Governorates, and noble families in Beijing.

However, in this round of impeachment, they tacitly maintained a unified silence.

Everyone's eyes turned towards Miyun.

Waiting for the empire's second assistant to return to the capital.

Waiting to see what kind of explanation this deputy assistant will give.
