Chapter 1456 Liquidation
Pang Daren said that those people "deserve it".
For example, this General Zeng.
Tell me how much military merit he had. When he was young, he was quite a bit successful. Otherwise, it would not have been General Zeng's turn to climb the ranks while the late emperor was still alive.
It's just that the general above him died early. When he arrived, in order to climb up the ladder, he married the Queen Mother Lou (then called Concubine Lou), who was particularly favored at the time, and married a direct daughter of the Lou family.
Therefore, General Zeng is a natural member of the Lou faction.
When the power of the Lou family was overwhelming, General Zeng also climbed up the ranks and almost controlled most of the military power around most of the capital. Since he took advantage of this opportunity, he naturally had to pay a price.
Therefore, when Emperor Qin gradually grew up, Empress Dowager Lou's father died, and the Lou family had no one to deal with, General Zeng was naturally tied to the Lou family's ship.
He already had a son and a daughter, could he still regret it?
Many officials in the court were like this. When the Lou family was powerful, they all seemed to be robbing each other, trying hard to get involved with the Lou family.
Either you married a girl from the Lou family, or he married a boy from the Lou family, and the marriage relationship lasted throughout the dynasty.
The Lou family even has the term "Lou Banchao".
Pang Pangren did not get involved. In addition to the fact that he was relatively young and had already foresighted that there would be a dispute after Emperor Qin came to power, the Lou family looked down on him because his performance was not even outstanding.
The girl from the Lou family is so noble. She will not marry anyone who is not a wealthy family, someone who is not a powerful person in the court, and someone who is not talented...
Of course, the real Qingliu would not look down on the Lou family, such as the Xu family in Luanzhou.
It was because Mr. Xu didn't know how to promote himself when he was young. Mr. Xu was suppressed by the Lou faction and had to live in Luanzhou and became a teacher. Mr. Xu had many old friends, but he was not a high-ranking official in the court.
There are several great scholars in the world like Mr. Xu, who all behave like "idle in the clouds and wild cranes", ignoring government affairs and living in semi-seclusion.
Now that the Lou sect has fallen, let’s see, in a few years, these disciples of the great Confucians of the time will inevitably be born.
Thinking like this, Pang Daren has already arrived in front of his own courtyard.
Seeing that the courtyard wall was intact and there was a circle of soldiers surrounding it, and there were no white cloths or flags, I felt a little more at ease.
He stepped forward, and the leading military officer confirmed his identity and let him in.
Inside the mansion.
When the old lady heard that her son was back, her face suddenly showed a look of joy.
"Mom, I'm back."
"You're back? Come in quickly and let me see if you've lost any weight..." The old lady carefully looked at her son's expression and found that although he looked like he hadn't had a good rest, his limbs were sound and his eyebrows were stretched. She was relieved.
She didn't dare to ask any more questions, she just said that it would be good if he came back, asked if he had eaten, and asked the servants to bring some simple food.
Pang Daren didn't say much, fearing that the walls had ears. He only said that everyone who lived with him had returned, and he had been in the palace for the past few days, and nothing major happened.
The subtle hint made the old lady feel at ease.
Before the food was served, Mrs. Pang and other members of the Pang family received the news and rushed over.
After a while, servants came to report, and the soldiers at the door withdrew.
Immediately afterwards, a eunuch came to inform him that he would go to court as usual tomorrow.
The next day, Pang Pang discovered that the center was less than half empty.
Thinking of Lou Banchao's connections, he knew what he was doing and stood in his position honestly.
A few people who were familiar with him came over and talked to him for a while, with a hint of happiness in their tone.
Many officials above the head did not come. It was obvious that even if these people were not involved in the rebellion, they were probably involved. I just don't know how many of them were actually finalized in the end.
After all, there are too many vacancies in the court, and it is not a good thing for Emperor Qin.
According to the traditional rules, except for the few leaders and those who Emperor Qin dislikes and must be dealt with, the rest should be "released".
That is to say, death penalty can be avoided, but living crime cannot be escaped. I am afraid that I will have to suffer some punishment.
However, what no one expected was that Emperor Qin obviously wanted to be "cruel" this time, and all those who conspired to rebel were dragged to Caishikou.
The blood was stained red for several days and could not be washed away.
As for the lack of people in the DPRK and the central government that they are worried about, the various departments will not be able to function properly...
hehe!
Within a few days, a large number of low-level officials gathered from all over the country to fill the vacancies.
It's just that they are "temporary officers" and there is still an assessment period. After passing the assessment, they can be officially vacant. Otherwise, they will be sent back to their original positions, where they came from.
The low-level officials, Pang Pang and others with a large number of unfamiliar faces were so shocked that they almost stared out of their eyes.
Of course, in this sensitive period, in order not to offend Emperor Qin's nerves, they lowered their heads one by one, not daring to let Emperor Qin see the strange color in their eyes.
They held their breath, hoping that this time of constant panic would pass soon and everything would get back on track soon.
"It is destined to be blessed by heaven, the emperor decreed..."
"Long live the Emperor, long live the Emperor!"
Zhu San, Xu Yujin and his wife kowtowed tightly to express their gratitude.
After getting up, he quickly handed over a red envelope and thanked his father-in-law.
To be honest, Zhu San had expected that he would be promoted, but he jumped several levels and was promoted to a Beijing official...
Master Luo Qiushan laughed and said: "Hahahaha... Third Master, there is no need to panic. It is the right time for Your Majesty to employ people. With Third Master's ability, it is natural for him to rise to the top. If Third Master feels guilty, it will be worse than in the future."
The right way is to solve your Majesty's worries and problems by being practical."
"Thank you, Master, for the advice." Even if he jumped a few levels, Zhu San did not underestimate this Master.
He knew very well that compared to himself, Master Luo Qiushan was Emperor Qin's "one of his own".
Luo Qiushan is equivalent to Emperor Qin's eyes. He is not only his master, but also Emperor Qin's confidant.
Compared to himself, Emperor Qin believed in Luo Qiushan more.
Zhu San was very happy to have such a person by his side, because it meant that no matter what he did, it would be under the eyes of Emperor Qin.
Emperor Qin looked at him. He didn't have to worry about doing something taboo and being "reported" by others for wearing small shoes.
If he couldn't do it, Luo Qiushan would definitely tell him immediately.
For such an important matter, Zhu San and his wife naturally had to write a letter back to their hometown to tell Ye Yuran and others the good news.
When Ye Yuran received the letter, it was already a month later.
"The third child has been promoted?"
Ye Yuran took the letter and was stunned for a moment.
Although she knew that Zhu San would be promoted sooner or later, but...
Isn’t this rise too sudden?
Also, isn’t the county magistrate a seventh-grade official?
Zhu San was promoted several levels in a row, directly to the fifth rank, and became a doctor in the Ministry of Household Affairs. He also had ministers, left ministers, right ministers and other officials above him.
The Ministry of Household Affairs is in charge of land registration, taxation and finance, which is suitable for Zhu San.
Just go to this department...
Ye Yuran was frowning and thinking, when Zhu Bamei came over happily: "Ah, third brother has been promoted? Great, what official has third brother been promoted to? Tongzhi, or Zhizhou?"
The county magistrate is a county-level supervisor, and Zhu Qi’s immediate superior is a state-level supervisor. For example, from the fifth-grade magistrate to the sixth-grade tongzhi. According to the promotion procedure, it is normal for Zhu San to be promoted from the county level to the state level.
