Chapter 175 : Lin Xiang resigns! Jiangzhou is bloody and bloody!(2/3)
How to punish Jiangzhou next is the top priority.
Killing must be killed, and a large number of them must be killed. But where is the key to killing?
Yuchi Duan and Xu Fu are deeply rooted in Jiangzhou, with lush branches and leaves. I don’t know how many powerful people have close relationships with them.
If you are out of the way, then almost all the honors and nobles in the Jiangzhou officialdom will be killed.
But if we don’t kill, the people in the world will lose their awe of him, the emperor, which is the most terrifying thing.
Moreover, in the secret memorial of Yu Tong, the Admiral of Hei Bingtai, the Ao Ting clan, Duke of Wei, Duke of Qi, Duke of Shu and others, had very close contacts with Yuchi Duan and Xu Fu.
If you want to be implicated, how widespread should be implicated?
If it is too ruthless, the entire Jiangzhou will be out of control.
Another point is, what should Ao Xin do?
First of all, he had been deprived of any official position, but his title was still there, so he was locked in the prison cell of Zongzheng Temple.
Ao Yu was also imprisoned, the Marquis Mansion of Nulang was also confiscated, and everyone in the Marquis Mansion of Nulang was monitored and lived in the official post.
During the Jinzhou Incident, when the thousand-family Li Chongyang killed the Li Wen family, he kept saying that he killed the Li Wen family for the sake of General Ao Xin, and kept saying that Ao Xin was loyal and righteous.
Ao Xin has made contributions to all this matter, and it is impossible to restore his position, but he cannot let go of his wife and children.
Also, Jiangzhou is the territory of Prime Minister Lin Gong, and Yuchi Duan is also Lin Gong's disciple. So how should Lin Gong be dealt with?
Xu Fu is already dead, so should we start a complete killing of Yuedanping organization?
The emperor immediately discovered the key point.
What about Ao Ting, Duke of Wei, Duke of Shu, and Duke of Qi are all secondary.
The key is Prime Minister Lin Gong, who stood in front of everyone. If he didn't take him down, it would be meaningless to touch others.
But completely take down Lin Gong?
No, no, no, it is completely impossible.
Lin Gong was his sharpest knife among civil officials at this time, and he was also the most obedient among the several prime ministers in the cabinet.
But if he doesn't move him? Yuchi Duan committed a huge crime. His disciples committed crimes. Isn't he responsible?
"Go to the cabinet and send all these secret memorials to Lin Gong. By the way, I would like to ask, what should I do about Lin Xiang?" said the emperor.
The eunuch Hou Zheng bowed and said, "Yes!"
……………………………………
The secret room inside the residence of Prime Minister Lin Gong.
He is still the head of the Yuedan Review of the Capital City, Du Hui, the second prince, and Lin Gong.
Lin Gong had already received the secret report from Jiangzhou and had obtained it almost at the same time as the emperor.
There are also secret reports from Jinzhou, which were even earlier than the emperor, because he was the initiator of the Jinzhou mutiny.
After receiving these two secret reports, Prime Minister Lin Gong couldn't help but stagger, closed his eyes for a long time before he stood firm.
But in just a few minutes, he became completely quiet and immediately held a secret meeting in the secret room.
Things have happened, what should I do next?
Jiangzhou must be killed, but how far?
Should Duke Shu, Duke Qi, and Duke Wei move? Should Ao Ting’s three counts move?
What will Lin Gong face? No matter what, he is also Yuchi Duan’s master. Yuchi Duan’s move is equivalent to rebellion, and he, the teacher, must be inseparable from it.
"We don't have much time left. At most, the emperor's oral order will arrive. At that time, this obedience will reach my feet. Within this hour, we must set a strategy." Prime Minister Lin Gong said: "Is it a defense or an offense?"
Du Hui said: "What is defense?"
Prime Minister Lin Gong said: "In the Jinzhou Incident, we failed, and Ao Xin became a meritorious minister and a loyal and righteous general. Then we let Ao Xin go, and not kill him, and let his family go. Next, we will do our best to deal with the current crisis, put out the flames of public opinion, and make big happen."
The second prince said: "Major events turn into small things, how do you turn into small methods?"
Lin Gong said: "The nine tribes of Yuchi Duan were killed, the Duke of Shu took the title, and Wang Qichang was demoted. All Yuedanping organizations of the entire empire were disbanded. Hundreds of people were found, and they were called Xu Fu's accomplices, and they were all killed. Finally... I resigned from the position of prime minister in the cabinet."
As soon as these words came out, the second prince trembled.
Lin Gong said: "This should be enough to explain to the world, and it should also explain to His Majesty the Emperor."
It is indeed enough, thousands of people have fallen to the ground. One governor, one duke falls, and one prime minister leaves the office. Of course, it is enough to think of the emperor's explanation.
But in that case, the losses would be too great. These people are all the direct power of his second prince and the capital for his throne.
And I'm very unwilling to give up!
After paying such a great price, not only did he not kill Ao Xin, but he even lost several super officials.
"What about the attack?" the prince hissed.
Prime Minister Lin Gong did not speak, and gently pressed his finger on the cup.
"Bang..." This exquisite jade cup exploded suddenly.
The explosion was very powerful, and the decorations on the entire table were in a mess.
How to attack?
Now the situation in the entire Southern Zhou Empire has collapsed enough, which will make it even more collapsed, more out of control, more explosive and more terrifying.
How to extinguish a person's anger?
It's very simple. Turning the fire point bigger and burning it harder makes his anger turn into worry.
The knife is in his hands, but there is no way to kill it!
Although Prime Minister Lin Gong did not say it, the second prince and Du Hui couldn't help but feel scared.
Lin Gong is too cruel. He is the emperor's most advantageous prime minister and the most obedient prime minister.
But at the critical moment, he was so cruel and ruthless.
Don't compromise, continue to attack.
That is not just about killing Ao Xin, but about making the situation in the entire Great Zhou Empire more explosive and turbulent.
This is aimed at the emperor, and it is to turn the emperor from anger to fear.
Once it turns into fear, you can't kill people randomly.
The drastic changes in public opinion in Jiangzhou were like detonating an atomic bomb, and the whole world was shaken.
Prime Minister Lin Gong, want to cover up the explosion of this atomic bomb? What should I do? What should I do if I want to extinguish the flames of this atomic bomb?
Very simple!
Detonate a hydrogen bomb.
The power of the hydrogen bomb is hundreds of times greater than that of the atomic bomb. This explosion of huge pit can completely cover the atomic bomb's crater.
Of course, there are no atomic bombs or hydrogen bombs in this world, it is just a metaphor.
But in that case, how shocking it would be to the Great Zhou Empire? How great the benefits would be?
This is the terrible thing about party struggles. In order to defeat one's own political enemies, we will do whatever it takes to make the entire empire turbulent at all costs.
The second prince said: "Actually, there is no choice, right?"
Prime Minister Lin Gong said lightly: "Yes, there is no choice. The arrow is on the string and you have to fire it."
The second prince and Du Hui couldn't help but feel numb in their scalp.
The second prince trembled and said, "Will it be out of control in the end?"
Prime Minister Lin Gong said: "Everything is worth it. If the defense compromises now, it is to admit defeat. You can only continue, and offense is the only way out."
"Ao Xin's whole family is still going to die, and we are still going to take over the position of General Cavalry. At this time, no one can stop us!"
…………………………………………
There was silence in the cabinet.
Even third-rank officials here hold their breath and walk with their toes. It seems that breathing louder will cause trouble.
Only the Prime Minister of the Cabinet, the second minister, was relatively calm. They were prime ministers during the reign of Emperor Tianyan. After seeing so many storms, they were no longer shocked.
Besides, this political storm exploded, and it was Lin Gong, not the two of them. Of course, I wouldn’t be gloating when I got to their position.
A moment later, the eunuch Hou Zheng entered the cabinet.
"Where is Xiang Lin?" Hou Zheng said.
"I haven't come yet, maybe I got up a little late. Lin Xiang usually comes very early."
About a quarter of an hour later, Prime Minister Lin Gong walked into the cabinet.
"Your Majesty's oral order, Lin Gong received the order." The eunuch Hou Zheng shouted.
Lin Gong knelt down and said, "I will accept the order!"
The eunuch Hou Zheng handed over three secret memorials and said, "These three secret memorials come from Jiangzhou and Jinzhou respectively. Take a closer look."
