Chapter 421 Please come out
Although Qian Shiyan took over as Minister of Justice for only a few months, these two people have been working in the Ministry of Justice before.
As the highest criminal law enforcement department in the empire, the Ministry of Justice is terrifyingly powerful.
Over the years, these two people have used their power to interfere in cases and even used criminal power to retaliate against personal revenge.
As long as you have money, even if you commit a death sentence, these two people can use various means to settle the matter.
Over the past ten years, the crimes they committed are simply innumerable.
"Take all these two people and the list of burdens to the Dongchang Edict Prison."
Li Chen, who had completely lost trust in the Ministry of Justice, directly ordered Sanbao.
"Anyone who stops pleading will be treated as a member of the party."
The three treasures immediately received the order.
"Take Xu Changqing back for good treatment."
After Li Chen finished speaking, he swayed his sleeve and left the dark prison of the Ministry of Justice.
On the first day of the first lunar month, the East Palace Suzheng Ministry of Justice, the Minister of Justice Qian Shiyan and the Right Minister of Justice Ge Pingyi were involved in the search of more than 20 officials from all over the Ministry of Justice. None of the more than 20 officials missed the net, and all of them were directly taken to the East Factory to get people.
Many officials were taken away directly when they were reunited with their families at home for the New Year.
This incident became the first political storm that swept the empire in the New Year.
The entire Ministry of Justice was almost completely caught in one go, and everyone else was in danger.
However, this incident did not cause any rebound from the cabinet.
It seems that the cabinet has already made acquiesce.
Three days later, the East Palace issued a batch of appointment letters, and a new batch of officials took over the vacant position of the Ministry of Justice. The position of Right Assistant Minister of the Ministry of Works was recommended by the Right Assistant Minister of the Ministry of Works, and the prefect Zhang Haicheng was transferred from Zhili Prefecture to serve as the prefect.
However, the position of Minister of Justice did not appear in this batch of appointment letters.
For no other reason, Li Chen really has no one on hand.
"As one of the six ministries, the Ministry of Justice is of great power and function. In the current situation in the court, the ability of this Shangshu is second, and loyalty is the most important. At least, he must have the ability to deal with the cabinet's eyelids."
In Xizheng Hall, Li Chen, who was chatting about this matter with Su Zhenting, frowned and said, "But at the moment, such a candidate is really hard to find."
Su Zhenting smiled slightly and said, "Your Highness, it's not difficult."
"The general has a recommended candidate?" Li Chen asked.
Su Zhenting bowed and said, "The rebels in Xishan Province have started an internal strife. They are fighting to death now. There is no need for the court to take action. They will be destroyed by themselves. Isn't this person who helped Your Highness solve his major problems? Isn't it the right person to choose?"
Li Chen frowned.
Zhou Ping'an.
This person is indeed capable.
He said that he had dealt with the rebels without a single soldier, but he didn't expect that he would actually make it happen.
At present, the more than 100,000 rebels in Xishan Province have been in civil strife.
How Zhou Ping'an did it? Li Chen could guess a rough idea, but it was just a trick to use the power between the Zhou brothers.
But it is simple to say, but it is really not easy to do it.
In terms of this, it is definitely enough for Zhou Ping'an to be the Minister of Justice.
"This person is not easy to control." Li Chen said.
Su Zhenting didn't answer this.
It would be fine to mention one sentence, but it would be easy to make mistakes if you say more.
"I will decide after talking to him."
Li Chen waved his hand and decided to postpone the matter a little.
"I call the general to come today, mainly for another thing."
Li Chen held the warmer and said calmly: "Wang Tenghuan will re-enter the cabinet soon. In exchange, the Ministry of Justice will no longer intervene. The relationship here is complicated and there is a bit of a coincidence, but I don't want to give them a bargain."
"A cabinet position is so important, so I want to... ask Mr. Jingzhi to come out and serve as the Grand Secretary of the East Pavilion of the Cabinet."
