The Criminal Division was deposed.
It was approved by Kou Zhun and Liu E, and Zhao Zhen was stamped with a jade seal.
An edict to dismiss the Criminal Division officially came into effect.
After Guo Huai read out the edict to dismiss the criminal secretary, the officials cheered as if they had won a battle.
Liu E, with a gloomy face amidst the cheers of the hundreds of officials, took Zhao Zhen and left the Chui Gong Palace.
No matter how powerful Liu E was, he couldn't fight against the officials.
The hundreds of officials all asked to dismiss the criminal secretary. Even if she argued for the criminal secretary, it would be useless.
At the moment Kou Zhun spoke, it was a foregone conclusion to dismiss the Criminal Division.
If she struggles any more, it will only make the hundred officials think that she has ulterior motives, and the hundred officials will have another handle to impeach her.
Therefore, at the moment Kou Zhun spoke, Liu E reluctantly agreed to dismiss the criminal secretary.
Liu E is gone, Ding Wei, Cao Liuli, and Lu Yijian are also gone.
After today's meeting, they realized a truth.
No matter what your power is overwhelming, under the general trend, you will also be overthrown.
So what is the general trend
Public opinion and the meaning of the majority of officials in the court is the general trend.
After Ding Wei and the others left the Chui Gong Hall, Li Di rejected Wang Zeng and took him to celebrate together, and quietly moved to Kou Zhun's side.
When Kou Zhun's leisurely fingers tapped on the handrails of Kou's bus, he appeared behind Kou Zhun and said quietly: "Brother Kou, did you plan this matter, or did the stinky guy in your family plan it?"
Kou Zhun took a stop, pretending to be a fool and said, "What's the matter?"
Li Di drooped his face, gritted his teeth and said, "Stop mentioning the criminal secretary."
Kou Zhun made a suddenly realized look, and said seriously: "Isn't this what the hundred officials meant?"
Li Di hummed: "My eyes are not blind..."
The implication is that from the appearance of the rumors that the six stars are hanging upside down, to the call to dismiss the sixth part, and then to the call to dismiss the Criminal Division, there is obviously someone behind it.
If no one controls it, it is absolutely impossible to bring down the Criminal Division.
There are countless yamen at all levels of the imperial court.
Since the founding of the Great Song Dynasty, yamen at all levels have been increasing, but rarely reducing.
There were more and more yamen in the imperial court, like Liu Bu, who only paid salaries and did not do anything.
Those in power in the courtroom can naturally see this drawback, but they have not touched these idle yamen.
It is not that they are unwilling to move, but because the relationship between North Korea and China is intertwined. As long as one idle government is activated, the other idle government will feel the crisis and unite to exert pressure on the court.
The idle yamen has nothing to do on weekdays, so the mountains are not leaking.
But once they are united together, it is a huge force. If they put pressure on the court and stumbling on the court, the court would not be able to hold it.
It is precisely because such successive power holders have not moved these idle yamen, unless there is idle yamen that is so bad that it has reached the point where everyone hates it, the court will do it.
This shows how difficult it is to dismiss the idle yamen in the court.
And this time, it was not only the idle yamen in the court, but the real power yamen in the court.
The difficulty is even greater.
If there is no one behind it, it is absolutely impossible to do it.
Kou Zhun glanced at Li Di's questioning gaze, and said quietly, "Is this the place to talk?"
Li Di was taken aback for a moment, and recovered.
There are so many people in the Chui Gong Temple that it is not convenient to talk.
A little carelessness will be heard by people, and then it will be heard in Liu E's ears soon.
"Go to Kou Mansion and say..."
Li Di stamped his foot and stepped forward to push Kou Zhun's Kou bus.
He roughly guessed who the man behind it was.
Obviously it was not Kou Zhun, with Kou Zhun's temperament, if he planned this matter, he would definitely tell him, instead of being unwilling to say anything like he is now.
Kou Zhun allowed Li Di to push out of the Chui Gong Temple.
As soon as they arrived at the gate of the Chuigong Hall, Wang Zeng, Wang Shu, and Cao Wei greeted them.
Wang Zeng arched his hand at Kou Zhun, and said with emotion: "Brother Kou is hitting the west with this finger, it's really amazing."
Wang Zeng looked at Wang Shu and smiled and said, "If it hadn't been for Wang Shu to ask you to stop the Criminal Division, I'm afraid I still can't see the deep meaning of the six parts."
When Wang Shu heard Wang Zeng's praise, he smiled dryly, but said nothing.
He had listened to the compliments of hundreds of officials just now, and now his face was a little red, so he would naturally not respond to Wang Zeng.
Although he opened up the matter of asking to dismiss the Criminal Secretary, it was Kou Ji who actually planned the matter behind it.
If the officials want to praise, they should also praise Koj, not him.
As Kou Ji's uncle, he took advantage of Kou Ji and felt a little embarrassed.
He didn't speak, but Cao Wei spoke. He only heard Cao Wei's smile, "I don't know where Kou Ji is? He wrote six books, but now the six has not been deposed, but the criminal division has been deposed instead, I don't know him. How will you feel after learning about this?"
As soon as Wang Zeng heard this, he slapped his head and exclaimed, "Yes, I almost forgot Kid Kou. If the Criminal Division can be dismissed, he has also made a great contribution. If it weren't for him to write six books, he would have set it alight. This fire, I am afraid that this fire will never burn."
Kou Zhun glanced at Cao Wei and said with a deep gaze: "What can he think of a little guy who has just entered the officialdom? He also helps the old man run errands and talks."
Cao Wei was taken aback when he heard the words.
He heard the meaning of Kou Zhun's words.
Kou Zhun is afraid that Kou Ji's plan to provoke the Criminal Division will spread out, and it will be missed.
Kou Ji is only 16 this year, and is already ranked fifth.
This has been criticized by many officials in the court.
If we let the officials know that Kou Ji's plan to depose the Criminal Division was also planned by Kou Ji, they would easily isolate Kou Ji, beware of Kou Ji, or even jointly deal with Kou Ji.
Chaotang is such a place.
There can be smart people, people who are a little smarter than everyone, or people who are much smarter than everyone, all officials can accept.
But they are much smarter than the hundred officials, and those who turn them around are unacceptable.
Cao Wei understood Kou Zhun's meaning and slowly nodded: "Kou Gong's words are reasonable. He is a little guy who has just entered the officialdom and can only help Kou Gong run errands and talk."
Seeing that Cao Wei understood what he meant, Kou Zhun opened his mouth to help maintain Kou Ji together. He nodded with satisfaction.
Seeing Wang Zeng and Cao Wei still intending to continue the conversation, Li Di hurriedly said, "This is not a place to talk. Let's go to Brother Kou's mansion if we have anything to say."
Wang Zeng and Cao Wei nodded.
The group left the palace together and went straight to the Kou Mansion.
Arrived at Kou Mansion.
As soon as he entered the mansion gate, Li Di immediately handed Kou Zhun to the servant of the Kou Mansion, yelling: "Where is Kou boy? Let him come out to the old man, the old man has something to say to him."
Cao Wei stood aside and smiled without saying a word, Wang Shu's expression was a bit complicated.
Only Wang Zeng looked blank.
Wang Zeng was stunned and said: "When we go to Kou Mansion, don't we want to talk to Brother Kou? What do you want to do with Kid Kou
Li Di turned around and took a look at Wang Zeng, ignored him, and continued to shout: "Hurry up and ask Kou boy to come out."
Kou Zhong stayed by their side after they entered the mansion.
Hearing that Li Di had to see Kou Ji, he said dryly: "Li Xiang, my young master is ill."
Li Di stared and shouted: "The old man knows that he is ill, and he also knows he is pretending to be sick. You go in quickly and call him out. If he can't show up in front of the old man within a stick of incense, old man Go and invite him personally."
Hearing this, Kou Zhun shook his head dumbly and said to Kou Zhong: "Go and ask Ji'er to come out."
Kou Zhong stood there, didn't move, and sighed: "Young Master is really sick."
Kou Zhun was taken aback, and said in amazement: "Is it really sick?"
Kou Zhong nodded heavily, indicating that he did not lie.
Kou Zhun frowned and said in a deep voice, "What's the disease? Has the doctor in the house seen it?"
Kou Zhong nodded and said: "The doctor in the house has seen it and said that it is cold and cold. It needs medicine and needs to stay in bed."
Hearing this, Kou Zhun's old face sank, he glanced at Kou Zhong, and blamed: "You have always been responsible for Ji'er's food, clothing, shelter and transportation. Why did you not take good care of him and let him catch the cold?"
Kou Zhong said with a bitter face: "When the young master is in the mansion on weekdays, we rarely let us servants enter the Sijun Garden to serve. Except for serving tea and pouring water, he doesn't let us take care of everything else.
He also likes to move a Hu bed and lie in the garden.
In recent days, the weather is cold, and it is naturally easy to catch wind and cold. "
Kou Zhun glared at Kou Zhong, turned around and bowed his hands to Li Di, Wang Zeng, and others, saying: "Ji'er is feeling cold and inconvenient to see guests recently. The old man wants to take care of him, so I won't entertain you."
Li Di heard Kou Zhun's master and servant's words in his ears. He stared at Kou Zhun suspiciously and asked, "Really sick?"
Kou Zhun said displeased: "When did the old man make a joke about this kind of thing?"
When Li Di heard the words, his face changed, he bowed and said solemnly: "Then we are really not at the right time. Brother Kou, take good care of Kou, and we will see Kou again in a few days."
Cao Wei bowed and said the same thing.
Wang Shu was not an outsider, so he didn't rush to leave, so he didn't speak.
Wang Zeng stood in place with a blank face, and he didn't know why he was finally dragged out of the Kou Mansion by Li Di.
When he reached the entrance of Kou Mansion, he shook off Li Di's hand and asked, "What's the situation? When we arrive at Kou Mansion, aren't we going to talk to Brother Kou? How come you need to look for Kou boy as soon as you enter the mansion. ?"
Li Di glared at Wang Zeng, tossed his sleeves, curled his lips and said, "So far you still don't understand?"
Wang Zeng was stunned for a long time before he came back to his senses. He stared in amazement and exclaimed: "You mean the real promoter of the plan to show the criminal justice..."
Li Di glared at him again and reminded: "Speak carefully..."
Wang Zeng hurriedly closed his mouth and swallowed the rest of the words into his stomach.
He looked towards Cao Wei and was about to leave, and said in shock: "No wonder you would say those things at the gate of the Chui Gong Hall. You knew it was him a long time ago?"
Cao Wei didn't hide it, and nodded.
Wang Zeng said in disbelief: "This is too..."
Li Di didn't wait for him to finish speaking, so he grabbed the stubbornness and said, "It's incredible, isn't it?"
Li Di sighed and said: "When I first learned about this, I also found it a bit weird. So I thought of coming to Kou Mansion and asking Kou Xiaozi to ask him in person, but I didn't expect that Kou Xiaozi was ill."
Cao Wei seriously said from the side: "Speaking of which, we all owe him a favor. He is the biggest pusher behind the removal of the Criminal Secretary, but the three of us ultimately benefited."
Li Di groaned: "You are right. It is the three of us who really benefited. I owe kid Kou a favor. In the future, he will ask me for something. As long as he doesn't violate my principles, I will help him. ."
After hearing this, Cao Wei nodded.
Only Wang Zeng said with a bitter face: "The one who has benefited the most is me...According to your opinion, should I form a grass title ring and agree with my body?"
When Li Di heard this, he looked disgusted and said: "Just your old bone, you are still a man..."
After a pause, Li Di looked at Wang Zeng and continued to dislike him: "You talk about you, you don't even have a granddaughter, otherwise you can take the opportunity to get married and make Kid Kou your grandson-in-law."
Wang Zeng said with a black face: "You do have a granddaughter, but unfortunately you have already agreed."
Cao Wei said on the side: "I have two nieces, one is three years younger than Kou and the other is eight years younger than Kou."
When Li Di and Wang Zeng heard this, they looked disdainful, and said together: "When will you take off Wuxun's skin, and when will you say this."
After hearing the words, Cao Wei sighed, and said no more.
The three arched their hands at each other and went back home.
Kou Mansion.
Kou Zhun asked Kou Zhong to push him into the Garden of the Four Kings.
Entering the bedroom, Kou Zhun saw Kou Ji lying on the bed.
Kou Ji's face was a little pale, even if he was wrapped in two quilts, his face was not warm.
Seeing Kou Ji's white face and frowning brows, Kou Zhun felt a pain in his heart.
Although Kou Ji is not his own grandson, after half a year of getting along, Kou Zhun has long regarded him as his own grandson.
Kou Ji didn't feel anything until he fell ill.
After Kou Ji fell ill, he suddenly felt a bit sad.
He thought about it carefully, Kou Ji has been running for Kou Mansion and for him since he entered Bianjing.
This rush is more than half a year.
And for most of the six months, Kou Ji has been doing things for him, but he hasn't done anything for Kou Ji.
Sending Yuyou and Duhu to protect Kou Ji is nothing to him.
"Push the old man to the bed..."
Kou Zhun gave a deep voice.
Kou Zhong pushed Kou Zhun to Kou Ji's bed.
Kou Zhun stretched out his old hand and grabbed Kou Jilou's hand outside the quilt.
"You are a good boy... From the time you entered Beijing to the present, the old man really didn't look at you carefully. When you fell ill, the old man had time to look at you. It was the old man who was a grandfather who was wrong..."
Kou Zhun spoke in a low voice.
At this moment, a maid carrying a copper basin filled with water entered Kou Ji's bedroom.
After seeing Kou Zhun, he hurriedly put down the copper basin to give salutes.
Kou Zhun heard the maid's voice and looked back and saw the copper basin in the maid's hand and the sweat towel on the copper basin.
"bring here… "
Kou Zhun beckoned to the maid.
The maid hurriedly carried the copper basin to Kou Zhun.
"You go down first..."
