  Chapter 2067 King's Wrath

  The officials outside became more and more disturbed.

   Some officials gathered together to discuss this matter.

   "Could it be that the booklet was not handed over?"

   "How come, we handed it over in person, it must have arrived at the emperor's dragon table."

   "Since this is the case, it has been two days and the emperor has not responded, so what should I do?"

   "Look again, how can this kind of thing be solved easily, I don't believe that others can give up this benefit."

   There are also officials who are timid: "If the emperor insists on doing this, what should I do?"

   "How come, as long as we insist on opposing, the emperor will not force it." Some officials incited everyone to say.

   In the end, there is no conclusion.

   But at this time, there were also some officials who were always clean and honest, who supported this matter. After all, it did no harm to them, and it could also cause political opponents to bleed a fortune.

soon.

   Once again at the Great Court Meeting.

  Mr. Zhong Ge took the initiative to raise this matter.

  The number of people on his side this time is even more.

   While everyone is arguing.

  Suddenly, a not-so-young speaker, after stating that there is an old mother in the family to support him and a young child under him, and that he can't make up so much money, directly hit the post to die.

   As a result, he was stopped by Chu Heng, who had been prepared for a long time.

   Even so, after the failure, the not-so-young speech officer cried bitterly in the hall, looking for death and life, saying that he really couldn't come up with it, so he might as well not live.

   This scene came out.

   Immediately, Emperor Xuanming, who was already impatient, was furious.

   Immediately, people began to draw up relevant laws, and Chu Heng was also involved.

   And limit all officials to settle all the numbers within half a month and hand them over to the household department.

   And when Emperor Xuanming took out the records of properties and major transactions in the list of hundreds of officials within five years, all the officials who were still destroying corpses and wanting to pay less money were dumbfounded.

  At the same time, several officials and squires were directly beheaded and ransacked their homes because they embezzled too much silver.

  Now, who else doesn’t understand that Emperor Xuanming came here clearly, with these things in place, what’s the point of destroying more evidence? Who knows what criminal evidence the emperor has in his hands!

  When the time comes, take out one at random, and if you don’t obey, you will behead your head and ransack your home.

  Emperor Xuanming used vigorous and resolute means to show his attitude to the officials, whether he wanted the head or the money.

  Under the strong power, it will naturally lead to better cohesion of the officials from the gentry, but no matter how good they are, there are suspicions. It is not easy to really condense into a ball.

  In Chu Heng's view, unless these gentry are really condensed into a group, I am afraid that from today onwards, their previous hegemonic status will gradually change.

   It's a pity that most people don't realize this at this time.

  At this moment, these gentry's ideas are still on some poor officials.

  These officials were originally born in poor families or farming families, and they didn’t have much background. They could read it and get admitted to the government.

  After all, these officials with bad backgrounds are actually not very high-ranking officials.

  Chu Heng is the official with the worst background among the officials above the third rank.

  These extremely rich officials put their ideas on the old speaker who hit the pillars and others. If there is some death, even the emperor can't pretend that nothing happened.

   As a result, before they had time to plan, Emperor Xuanming directly issued a new decree, allowing poor officials to pay IOUs.
