Chapter 208: Eliminating crime and evil is urgent! Sir Yang!
Hearing Su Changan’s words.
Luo Anxu and Yang Guofu looked at each other and bowed together: "Your humble servants, we are terrified."
Su Changan smiled and said, "Well, although I have the Phoenix Seal, I have not yet married, nor have I been officially canonized. You two are of the same generation as my father, so you are still my elders. If you don't sit down, then I will stand too."
Having said that, Su Changan really stood up.
Seeing Su Changan like this, Luo Anxu immediately said, "Your Majesty, you can't do that. Although she hasn't been canonized, the Phoenix Seal is the symbol of the Queen Mother. If His Majesty hands the Phoenix Seal to you, it will be considered as the canonization."
After saying this, Luo Anxu pursed his lips and bowed again, "Moreover, I have neglected my duty without investigation, which has led to the emergence of people who abuse their power for personal gain in the government office, and made friends with the local thugs and bullies to seek profits. I really have no face to sit at the same table with the queen, and I only ask the queen to punish me."
When Luo Anxu spoke, Su Changan smiled helplessly and said, "Lord Luo, whether you are guilty or not is not up to me to decide. It's up to His Majesty to decide."
After that, Su Changan looked at Yang Guofu and said, "Don't you think so, Lord Yang?"
Yang Guofu was originally thinking about what the Queen Su Changan was going to do. When he heard this, he thought for a moment and immediately said, "Your Majesty is right."
Saying this
Yang Guofu looked at Su Changan with his one eye, but he began to wonder in his heart what the Queen was going to do next.
Yang Guofu knew clearly that so many things had happened. The Queen seemed to like eating and was cheerful and smiling all day long, but she was the same type of person as His Majesty and was very calculating in her heart.
Having been tricked so many times, Yang Guofu dared not fall into the trap now.
Su Changan looked at the cautious Yang Guofu, smiled and asked, "Why don't you come and sit down?"
Yang Guofu was about to speak.
Su Changan immediately said, "You saved my girl. If Lord Yang had stepped out in time to stop Captain Zhang, my girl might have been handcuffed."
Hearing this, Yang Guofu immediately remembered that he got off the carriage only after seeing Su Changan.
Moreover, Yang Guofu was also very clear that it was definitely Su Changan who saw him first. After all, when he turned his head to look over, Su Changan was looking at him.
So he immediately bowed and said, "Your Majesty, I am terrified! Besides, with the queen here, Master Cat will be fine."
Su Changan thought for a moment and said, "Okay, let's stand and talk. Once we're done, I can go to the Su Mansion."
Upon hearing this, Luo Anxu immediately bowed.
The same is true for Yang Guofu.
Su Changan stopped talking and looked at Yang Guofu and asked, "Master Yang, what do you think of what happened today?"
Yang Guofu was stunned.
Luo Anxu's heart suddenly hung in the air.
After all, today’s matter could be big or small, it all depends on how we deal with it!
Or, what others said.
But if you ask Yang Guofu.
Aren't you going to be finished?!
Although he had no grudges with the Yang Party, he and Yang Guofu did not get along well. This was because when Yang Guofu asked him to do something, he always pretended to obey but did not do it in order to avoid contact with the Yang Party.
This also made the narrow-minded Yang Guofu always hold a grudge in his heart.
As a result, the Queen Mother asked Yang Guofu about this matter.
Is it because Wang Maoqing colluded with a Shao Yin in Jingzhao Prefecture and secretly targeted the Dianjiangchun rouge shop, so he holds a grudge against me?
However, he was kept in the dark and had no idea about the matter. When he found out later, he immediately punished the officials who did the deed and drove them out of Jingzhao Prefecture, and also explained the matter clearly to His Majesty.
Her Majesty the Queen doesn't seem to be a petty person!
Luo Anxu was a little anxious.
When Yang Guofu heard this question, he was actually a little stunned, because he felt there was a trap here.
Ask yourself this.
He can understand.
After all, I was involved, even though I had to.
But Yang Guofu felt that there was a problem, so he thought and analyzed it quickly in his mind.
Was he going to say that Luo Anxu was wrong? Was he deliberately trying to accuse Luo Anxu of a serious crime?
That's not right.
Although Luo Anxu has always been neutral, he listens to His Majesty very much and has no contact with either us or the Queen Mother.
Or was it about the [Dianjiangchun] incident before?
As he was thinking about this, Yang Guofu suddenly thought of something, so he immediately bowed and said, "Your Majesty, I think the Black Wolf Gang and the head constable are extremely evil. We should carefully interrogate them and find out all the crimes they have committed over the years. The people implicated during this period are even more heinous and unforgivable. Only in this way can we give an explanation to the people and show that Your Majesty loves the people like her own children."
Yang Guofu couldn't guess what Su Changan was going to do, but the best way to avoid falling into the trap was not to give a direct answer.
Luo Anxu looked at Yang Guofu in confusion. He didn't expect Yang Guofu to answer like this.
But after thinking about it carefully, Luo Anxu immediately remembered that Yang Guofu had been punished a lot by His Majesty and the Queen in recent days, and he thought that he had become more cautious this time.
but
Since Yang Guofu said so, Luo Anxu naturally spoke immediately.
But just as Luo Anxu was about to speak, Su Changan looked at Yang Guofu with a delighted expression and said, "So, Lord Yang wants to stand up for the people and eradicate evil forces like the Black Wolf Gang?"
As Su Changan spoke, he looked straight at Yang Guofu.
Yang Guofu was caught off guard by Su Changan's look and his sudden and unexpected words, and he was unable to react for a while.
Su Changan did not give Yang Guofu a chance to respond and said directly: "I asked you two adults to come in because today's events inspired me. I plan to 'sweep away the underworld and eliminate evil'. You two are the best candidates."
Cracking down on gangsters and eliminating evil?
What word.
The two heard this and frowned slightly.
Su Changan continued, "It actually means to eliminate evil forces. Lord Luo is the prefect of Jingzhao Prefecture, and he is in charge of all the detectives in the entire Jingzhao Prefecture. As for Lord Yang, I think he is very capable. I just tried to find Ruyu to talk to you about renovating the palace residents' residences. Lord Yang discussed the entire budget with Aunt Sun in just a few days. It was really unexpected. Moreover, seeing Lord Yang rescue me, a silly female doctor, today, he was so righteous, especially when he said those words just now, he looked so righteous. He is really the best person to do this."
"Therefore, I think the task of eliminating evil forces like the Wild Wolf Gang must be handed over to people with a sense of justice like Lord Yang."
Hearing Su Changan’s words.
Yang Guofu was surprised. Damn it! It turned out to be a trap! I didn't say anything, but they asked me to do this thing to eliminate evil and eradicate evil forces!
What is evil force?
I am considered an evil force in the eyes of the people of Beijing, and you want me to eradicate me? ! !
but
Yang Guofu was stunned for a moment, then thought carefully, was he a member of the underworld? Not really, he was devoted to the country, and he had lost weight these days because of repairing the residences of the servants in the harem!
Moreover, what the Queen was talking about was to eliminate evil forces like the Black Wolf Gang, so wouldn’t that mean those ruffian gangs in the capital?
I have nothing to do with those scumbags.
Besides, accepting money from those things is a disgrace to me!
Thinking of this, Yang Guofu was slightly stunned. Then, dealing with those cheap guys, is this a trap?
Not really.
On the contrary
Want to use your own meaning?
But thinking about this, Yang Guofu still knew that he could not agree to this, although now he couldn't understand why Su Changan wanted to do this himself.
Instead of using more capable people like Su Zifeng and Li Jiulang, but precisely because of this, Yang Guofu felt that he could not agree to it.
therefore
Yang Guofu immediately bowed.
But before he could say anything, Su Changan said, "Look at that stall."
As he spoke, Su Changan pointed to the stall where he had just eaten oil-splashed noodles.
Yang Guofu and Luo Anxu looked over and saw that the stall was not big, with only a few tables, and it was a small business that could not be any smaller.
However, Yang Guofu was thinking about refusing quickly, so he just took a look and turned around immediately.
but!
Su Changan saw that Yang Guofu was about to speak, so he said directly, "That location is very good, because it is right in the downtown area where people eat, and the food tastes very good. We can make at least one tael of silver a month. Especially in the past few months, because of the imperial examination and the approaching New Year, the business is good. The boss told me that he made a full five taels of silver last month. However, out of the five taels of silver, three taels of silver must be paid to the Black Wolf Gang outside, which is the venue fee I just mentioned. Sir Yang, I saw that you were about to speak just now, but don't be impatient. I remember that Sir Yang worked in the Ministry of Revenue, so he should know how three taels of silver is to ordinary people."
Yang Guofu was stunned and wanted to refuse to do this, but the Queen Mother asked him to answer, so he had to answer. So he said respectfully: "Your Majesty, three taels of silver is enough for a family of three in Daxia to spend for half a year. If they live frugally and eat less meat, it can last for a year."
After saying that, Yang Guofu bowed and said, "Your Majesty, I am at the Ministry of Works."
When Yang Guofu said this, Su Changan smiled and said, "Don't worry, sir. I'll finish my story first."
Yang Guofu was speechless.
Su Changan went on to say, "It was three taels of silver, but it was taken away directly by the Black Wolf Gang in the name of site fees. If ordinary people want to make more money by doing business, they must find a good location, but a good location has a so-called site fee, and more than half of the silver earned in a month needs to be paid for the site fee. If you don't pay, you will not be allowed to do business. Ordinary people dare not report to the authorities, because the government has the umbrella of these cancerous tumors. If ordinary people report to the authorities, they are the ones who suffer."
"So I thought, if there is a Black Wolf Gang doing evil in a market like this, what if there are more than a hundred markets in the entire capital? How many such gangs are there? How many ordinary people are gritting their teeth at them, hating them to the core but unable to do anything about it. Therefore, these evil forces must be eradicated! Sir Yang, what do you think of my suggestion?"
Yang Guofu was stunned for a moment, then replied: "Your Majesty is right, this is for the country and the people."
When he said this, Yang Guofu thought of the lesson he had just learned and paused before changing his words.
Su Changan went on to say, "Lord Yang is indeed worthy of being a loyal minister of Daxia. He serves the country and the people with a righteous heart! It seems that he has thought about this matter firstly for the people, and secondly for Daxia!"
"Especially in the capital, there are such wicked people who bring disaster to the people. I don't know how many such things have happened today. It is thanks to Lord Yang who upholds justice and protects my silly female doctor. Otherwise, what would have happened? But not everyone can meet a righteous person like Lord Yang. In this way, how many people have been harmed? Therefore, we must eradicate evil and return Daxia to a harmonious society. This must be done, and it is urgent!"
Yang Guofu felt a headache when he heard this.
He wanted to say, when the hell did I say this?
but
The more Su Changan said this, the more he felt something was wrong, so he immediately said, "Your Majesty, I still have a lot of things to deal with in the Ministry of Works, it's really..."
When Yang Guofu said this, Su Changan took out a white jade seal from his arms and placed it on the table.
The seal is less than half the size of a palm and is carved in the shape of a phoenix. The white jade is warm and has a noble luster.
And this seal has a name [Phoenix Seal].
Only the Queen Mother of Great Xia can use the seal.
After Emperor Taizong of Daxia obtained a jade stone of the same quality as the Jade Seal of Daxia, he ordered people to carve it into a phoenix and gave it to his wife, Empress Dugu, and ordered that the effect of the [Phoenix Seal] be second only to the [Jade Seal].
therefore
When Yang Guofu saw the phoenix seal, he was stunned and immediately bowed and saluted.
The same was true for Luo Anxu, who had remained silent.
Su Changan placed his hand on the Phoenix Seal, looked at Yang Guofu and asked, "I am about to issue an edict, Sir Yang, are you planning to disobey?"
"?" Yang Guofu was stunned for a moment when he heard it, and then he immediately said: "I dare not."
Although he said this, Yang Guofu glanced at the Phoenix Seal.
Don't mention how aggrieved I feel!
Damn, she carries the Phoenix Seal with her everywhere? ?
But at the same time, Yang Guofu began to think about this matter seriously, wondering if this was another trap that Su Changan had dug for himself.
Do you want to use me as a money bag again?
Or some other reason.
But after thinking about it, Yang Guofu couldn't figure out how much this would cost.
After all, when Su Changan said this, Yang Guofu had completely understood that Su Changan meant to eliminate these ruffians, but how much would it cost to eliminate them?
Or, he wants to use himself as a gun.
But if you use it as a gun, it’s not a big deal.
What is the purpose?
Yang Guofu was puzzled, but since the Phoenix Seal had been taken out, how could he not agree?
so.
This made Yang Guofu even more annoyed!
I was thinking, why the hell did I go to the palace today when I had nothing to do! If I didn't go to the palace, I wouldn't have wasted the morning, and in the end I wouldn't have seen His Majesty, let alone got involved in this matter!
Su Changan heard what Yang Guofu said and looked at Luo Anxu: "Where is Lord Luo?"
Luo Anxu bowed and said, "I am a guilty minister. Your Majesty has asked me to do this while I am guilty. I will do my best to eliminate evil and bring peace and happiness to the people of the capital of Daxia."
Yang Guofu was so focused on thinking about what Su Changan meant that he forgot some other things.
But Luo Anxu saw it clearly from the side, especially when he saw that Su Changan had been asking Yang Guofu to do this, he already understood the reason.
That is.
Offending people!
There are over a hundred markets in the capital area. In such a big city, there are so many gangs and so many officials will be implicated.
This is all about offending people.
The most important thing is that if those gangs involve underworld people, they will inevitably be assassinated out of hatred.
Yang Guofu was naturally the first to be affected.
And this matter.
Yang Guofu is really the most suitable person to do this.
After all, the senior officials in Yang’s party would certainly disdain to be in cahoots with those ruffian gangs, but what about the lower-level officials?
Those people are greedier than each other. Let alone a hundred taels, they would accept even ten taels!
As long as you accept it, you are guilty!
So Yang Guofu is the most suitable person to do this!
As for myself.
Although Luo Anxu was one of the two people who did this, this was what he had to do. Moreover, he had offended so many people during his many years in office in Jingzhao Prefecture, so he didn't care.
This was also a chance to redeem himself and make meritorious contributions. Not only was he unwilling to do so, he was even grateful to Su Changan for giving him this opportunity, because with this opportunity, he could write some words asking for His Majesty's forgiveness when he wrote the letter of apology.
Thinking of this, Luo Anxu looked at Su Changan and felt that this queen was really a good planner! !
Let dog bite dog.
If the dog disobeys, it is disobeying the order!!
As a result, the Yang party was already in a panic, and those who wanted to leave, like Mi Wanjun, were even more frightened. They could also recognize that Yang Guofu didn't care about their face in order to protect himself, so they resolutely left.
Without sacrificing a single soldier, the power of the Yang Party was consumed.
The more Luo Anming looked at Su Changan, the more admiration he had in his eyes. He also felt extremely guilty for having just misunderstood Su Changan's narrow-mindedness.
Especially when thinking about the fact that the queen was not feeling well, I thought about sending the ginseng king that I had kept at home to Mr. Zhang Wenjing!
Su Changan looked at the expressions of Luo Anxu and Yang Guofu.
He didn't know what Luo Anxu was thinking.
But he could see that Yang Guofu was annoyed.
That's right!
Su Changan just wanted to make Yang Guofu irritable, because the task of cracking down on gangsters and eliminating evil can only be done well if Yang Guofu is in a very irritable state.
As for other purposes, Su Changan actually didn't think as much as Luo Anming did. He just felt that
Let the bad guys fight the bad guys, that's right!
Moreover, he subconsciously felt that Yang Guofu had to do this, which was why what just happened happened.
Now
Seeing that the two had no objections, Su Changan said directly: "In this case, both of you should go out with me to give an explanation to the people."
