Chapter 131 Impeachment Storm!

"The Great Jin Empire is a good person. Each of the four counties that the Great Qin ceded out of the Great Qin had millions of fertile land. If Wei Daqin had recovered them all, wouldn't it be five million acres? No, it's even seven million acres possible!" Ying Chang said with a strong and powerful voice.

Perhaps this year's bumper harvest made Ying Chang a little inflated and he couldn't wait to recover the lost land.

After hearing Ying Chang's words, many ministers gasped.

Seven million acres!

What number is this? A huge number!

During the prosperous period of the Great Qin Empire, it was only about four million mu of fertile land. It is conceivable how tempting seven million mu of fertile land was for the ministers like them.

However, although it is very tempting, the minister does not feel that he can regain the lost land in a short period of time.

Ying Chang seemed to know what these ministers were thinking, and immediately said, "I know what you are thinking. Are you thinking that the Qin Empire is not able to recover the lost land now? I tell you now that there is nothing difficult in the world, but I am afraid of those who are determined. As long as we are in the king and minister, no matter how difficult it is, we can solve the problem!"

When the ministers heard this, they nodded in agreement and couldn't help but reply in unison: "I'm sure to obey Your Majesty's admonition!"

The Minister of Works, Jiang Haiyou, took a small step to the right and bent down with a respectful expression to compile the report: "Your Majesty, I have something to do to report!"

"Tell me!" Ying Chang replied indifferently.

"With the efforts of 40,000 prisoners of Jin army, all the canals within a hundred miles of Xianyang City have been dug, and the water source has been connected. Once the canal is dug, the people of Xianyang City have carried hoes to enclose land and open up land. It is expected that by the end of the year, Your Majesty will see that the radius of Xianyang City is fertile and fertile land within a hundred miles of!" Jiang Haiyou said with a hint of joy.

For Jiang Haiyou, this is something he did for the Qin Dynasty since he entered the officialdom, and it is also a great thing. Within a radius of hundreds of miles, one million acres of fertile land can be opened. Of course, except for hills, stones, and lakes, three to four hundred thousand acres can be opened within a radius of hundreds of miles.

Thirty or four hundred thousand acres are not a small amount!

Ying Chang nodded with satisfaction when he heard this, and it was not wasting tens of thousands of stones of food to raise 40,000 prisoners of war.

"Your Majesty, will you expand the distance and continue to dig the canal?" Jiang Haiyou reported and asked again.

"Yeah!" Ying Chang said lightly.

Now the Qin Empire is short of food, and the more fertile land, the better.

"I understand!" Jiang Haiyou responded with a respectful expression, and then retreated back to his position.

"Report to Your Majesty, I have something to report!" Prime Minister Chang Zifei took a small step forward and wrote a report with a respectful expression.

"Say!" Ying Chang replied indifferently.

"Your Majesty, all candidates who passed the imperial examination list can achieve the position of designated officials, so the efficiency of governments across the country has increased several times!" Chang Zifei reported with a respectful expression.

"That's good!" Ying Chang nodded, then looked at the Censor Chang Qing, "The Censorate should keep a close eye on these new officials. If you find that they are corrupt or abused by the law or the people, you should immediately arrest and detain them!"

"I obey the order!" Changqing responded with a respectful expression. After answering, Changqing glanced at Li Bin, the Minister of Justice. Li Bin also happened to see Changqing looking at him. When he saw Changqing looking at him, Li Bin's heart beat for a moment and suddenly felt a bad premonition.

"Report to Your Majesty, I want to impeach Li Bin, the Minister of Justice!" Chang Qing took a step to the right and bent down with a solemn expression to compile the report.

Li Mian's face changed, and he subconsciously swallowed his saliva, his hands trembling.

Ying Chang frowned and glanced at Li Mian with a hint of murderous intent, which made the latter frightened.

"What's the point of impeachment?" Ying Chang asked at Chang Qing with a serious look on his face.

This is the first time that Everqing has impeached a minister in the court since he served as the chief censor of the Censorate, and he is also a second-rank minister of the Shangshu!

Changqing took out a memorial from his arms and offered it to him with both hands. Tang Hua, who had been standing next to Ying Chang, immediately stepped down from the platform, took the memorial carefully, and then walked up to the platform and submitted it to Yu Ying Chang.

Ying Chang started watching the memorial, and Chang Qing also said at this time: "Report to Your Majesty, Li Yi, the younger brother of the Minister of Justice Li Dun, on September 18, the eighth year of the Shengqin, the day before yesterday, Li Yi lost money in the gambling stage and was in a bad mood. He broke the goods of a small vendor. The small vendor knew Li Yi's background and dared not let Li Yi compensate, but just cursed in a low voice!"

"When Li Yi heard the small vendor scold him, he immediately called his servants to beat the small vendor. After the beating, Li Yi was still unhappy. On that night, he burned the small vendor's family to death and forged a fire. Xianyang County Magistrate Hua Dong was ordered to investigate the case and find out the real murderer behind Li Yi!"

"After Li Yi was arrested, he had just been imprisoned in the Heavenly Prison. The prison head received a document from the Ministry of Justice. The document stated that Li Yi was wronged and the real murderer was not him. Li Mun was released immediately and should not hurt the innocent. The prison head saw that the Ministry of Justice was stamped under the document and released the person!"

"When county magistrate Hua Dong learned about this, he immediately reported to the county magistrate Jiang Chong, demanding that Li Yi be arrested again for interrogation. However, Jiang Chong did not dare to offend Li Bin, and refused to stamp the arrest document on various reasons many times. Hua Dong, in desperation, told the Censorate the matter!"

"After receiving the case, the Censorate immediately conducted a comprehensive investigation into the case. Finally, it was found that in order to protect Li Yi from the criminal law, Li Bin used his power for personal gain and used his public tools for personal gain. In this way, I impeached Li Bin, the Minister of Punishment, and impeached Xianyang County Magistrate Jiang Chong, seriously dereliction of duty. If Your Majesty does not believe it, I have some evidence!"

"Is this true?"

"The censor said that it must be true that both people and physical evidence are there!"

"Mr. Li is confused!"

"Yes, he was only 30 years old. At the age of 30, he took the position of the second-rank minister of the Ministry of Justice. He has a bright future. Now... Alas, for a rebellious brother, he will ruin his bright future!"

All civil and military officials sighed, feeling a little regretful.

Ying Chang's eyes looked like swords and looked at Li Dun coldly. Li Dun quickly walked out of the civil servants' queue, knelt in the middle of the hall and shouted: "Your Majesty, I'm wronged!"

"Your Majesty, I am wronged!" Xianyang County Magistrate Jiang Chong also hurried out to shout for justice. Both of them were sweating profusely and trembled all over.

"Be honest and lenient, resist strictness, don't force me to prove evidence!" Ying Chang said in a cold tone, a little angry.

How could he not be angry? How long has he been in power for himself? How long has Li Jian been appointed as the Minister of Justice? It took just a moment to do such a big thing, and just this little thing, he would kill someone else's family. If this is a fight, would he have to kill other people's entire clan?

This happened in Xianyang, and the emperor dared to be so arrogant at his feet. It would be fine if he went outside!
