Although today's enlarged cabinet meeting is not unprecedented, it is obviously a rare big move by the Kyoto cabinet in recent days.

At this moment, almost all the bigwigs in Sijiu City of Kyoto were present.

In terms of the political situation, there are thirteen cabinet ministers, who are the highest rulers in the entire eastern power system, commonly known as the thirteen chairmen of the Golden Round Table Council.

The military involved were the eight major military leaders, as well as the military judges of the entire Golden Military Law Council.

Of course, there were still rows of cold benches in the cabinet meeting room that didn't look very formal.

As for the people sitting on these cold benches, their status is naturally lower than that of the Thirteenth Council President and the Eighth Army Heads. They are the administrative officials in charge of the six departments of the three provinces of Kyoto.

Among them are six ministers and three Tongfengge Luantai Pingzhangshi.

Such a strong lineup is enough to show the high level of this enlarged cabinet meeting and the importance of the matters to be discussed.

Under normal circumstances, if it were not for major events such as foreign wars, the Kyoto cabinet would rarely make such a big move.

As the chief minister of the cabinet and the number one chairman of the Golden Round Table Council, Lu Guangyao saw that almost everyone in the meeting room had arrived, so he slowly got up.

"Everyone, today my old man convened this enlarged cabinet meeting with the Cabinet No. [-] convening order. The main purpose is only three points."

"Now that all of us are here, I won't be sloppy with you, old man. Let's get straight to the point!"

As he spoke, Lu Guangyao waved his hand.

In the next second, his personal secretary walked over from the conference table.

At the same time, a document summary that had been prepared was sent to all participants.

Immediately afterwards, Lu Guangyao's voice resounded in the meeting room.

"The documents and proposals you are holding in your hands are all prepared overnight by the old man."

"The three emergencies above are also the specific topics we are going to discuss today."

"The war that is about to break out on the southwest border, the shocking case of Kong Xiu, an official of the Criminal Ministry, the execution of the people involved in the case, and the appointment of the commander-in-chief of the Tianhai Camp"

Listening to Lu Guangyao's angry voice, the entire meeting room is now dead silent.

But behind the silence, countless people were sweating profusely.

For example, the current Minister of the Ministry of Justice, sitting in this conference room now is like sitting on pins and needles, but he dare not move in front of so many big bosses and superior officials. This kind of suffering is not something ordinary people can do. endured.

At the same time, at the conference table where the heads of the Eighth Army were sitting, everyone in military uniform lowered their heads and whispered.

Obviously, these military representatives are more interested in the war in the Southwest and the ownership of the Tianhai Camp.

Seeing the scene in the conference room, Lu Guangyao, who was sitting in the first seat, first looked at Chen Guozhong and Ouyang Changfeng who were opposite him.

Immediately afterwards, he cleared his throat and asked in an extremely majestic voice: "I think you have all roughly browsed through the meeting minutes in your hands just now, haven't you?"

"Then let's officially enter today's topic!"

"First of all, let's start with the case of Kong Xiu from the Ministry of Criminal Justice."

"Although the trial of this case has not been concluded so far, and it is far from the root of the trial, the viciousness and serious impact of the case have been clearly revealed."

"A mere chief of the criminal department, an official the size of a sesame mung bean, has committed various major crimes of corruption, dereliction of duty, bribery, and murder during his ten years in office."

"Moreover, what is even more shocking is that there are still so many officials in Kyoto who are colluding with him!"

"Now that the case has only been on trial for three or four days, there are as many as a dozen officials involved in the case, and the crimes involved are too numerous to list."

He was speaking so emotionally, and the next moment, Lu Guangyao's eyes suddenly turned around, and he fell very sternly on the Minister of the Ministry of Justice who was sitting on the cold bench.

For a moment, a shocking coldness instantly enveloped the entire cabinet meeting room.

"Nie Guangrong!"

Lu Guangyao's cheeks twitched uncontrollably after roaring the name of the minister of punishment.

"As Minister of the Ministry of Punishments, your subordinates committed such an unforgivable crime, don't you want to say something?"

Being called by Lu Guangyao under the eyes of everyone, the poor minister of the Ministry of punishment felt his legs go weak and he started to sweat profusely.

At this moment, Nie Guangrong, Minister of the Ministry of Punishment, did not even dare to lift his head in the face of the sharp eyes of the big bosses in the conference room.

If it wasn't for him being supported by the Minister of Rites and the Minister of Officials who were at the same level as him, he might have slipped under the stool at this time.

"I, I, I"

After talking about the three of me, Nie Guangrong was at a loss for words for a while, and couldn't find any excuses in his empty mind, so he could only half-kneel on the spot in a daze.

But at this moment, Xu Youming, who was sitting firmly next to Lu Guangyao, suddenly smiled and spoke for Nie Guangrong.

"Old Lu, put out the fire first."

"As the so-called sages say, no one has made mistakes, and if you make mistakes and correct them, there is nothing good about it."

"In my opinion, although Nie Guangrong, Minister of the Ministry of Punishments, has his negligence, fortunately, he did not join forces with that Kong Xiu. So far, none of the criminal evidence we have investigated involves Nie Shangshu. .”

"So for him, we still have to focus on criticism and education, supplemented by accountability."

Xu Youming's words seemed to be to offend Nie Guangrong, but in fact they also had the effect of throwing bricks and attracting jade.

So after he finished speaking, he immediately paused his voice, then changed the subject and pointed his finger at Liu Minglang, Minister of the Household Department who was equal to Nie Guangrong.

"However, some of us here may not be as clean as Nie Shangshu."

"Liu Minglang, as the Secretary of the Household Department, one of the six departments of the three provinces in Kyoto, you should be the most wealthy official in the whole capital."

"However, you are willing to serve as the umbrella of a bad apple like Kong Xiu for the sake of tens of millions of banknotes, and we have also found out that you conspired with him to blackmail the Imperial Capital of the capital through our investigation of this guy's account books and call records over the years. The criminal facts of the group."

"How do you explain this?"

As soon as Xu Youming's words came out, Liu Minglang, the Minister of the Household Department who was originally irrelevant, suddenly became the target of public criticism.

At the same time, in the villa of Tianhai Longquan Villa.

Lin Fan and Tian Qi were holding the watermelon in their hands, staring intently at the big melon in the cabinet meeting room in Kyoto.

"Hey, I originally thought that Lu Guolao and Xu Guolao were going to attack those moths in the Ministry of Punishment today, but I didn't expect them to come here and point all their fingers at the Ministry of Households. Why is this?"

After taking a bite of the crunchy and sweet watermelon at hand, Tian Qi looked at Lin Fan with a puzzled expression.

At this time, Lin Fan was smiling lazily, and explained: "The reason is actually very simple, because this Nie Guangrong belongs to Xu Youming, while that household minister Liu Minglang belongs to Ouyang Changfeng."

"Besides, the Southwest's military budget is tight now, and Liu Minglang, the pocketbook of the Eastern Empire, is not as obedient as he imagined, so Xu Youming and Lu Guangyao are planning to use Kong Xiu's case to eliminate Liu Minglang and replace him with an obedient one. Money bags for them to drive."

After Lin Fan's explanation, Tian Qi suddenly understood: "Oh, so that's what happened."

Immediately afterwards, the little girl smiled silly again: "Hehe, I never thought that eating melons from the cabinet can actually increase these knowledge points. This wave is not a loss, not a loss."
