Chapter 805: Bad customs

Chu Feng felt that something bad was about to happen, so he was unhappy. He gave Ke Zhengming a bad look, but Ke Zhengming just pretended not to see it. Even under such a solemn atmosphere, he stood upright and with a clear heart.

The emperor felt relieved. Ke Zhengming didn’t disappoint him. Such words were the most appropriate to say such at this time.

The emperor coldly glanced at the six ministers, who were kneeling on the ground, and said: “Is what Ke Daren said is true?”

How dare the six ministers answer? No one utters a word.

Chu Feng busily said: “Imperial Father, among the children of the nobles in the capital, there are indeed some bad customs. This is inevitable. It is better to leave this matter to this son. I will gather them together and give them a good lecture, which may help them get back on track right away.”

The emperor didn’t answer, instead, he looked at Ke Zhengming again: “What does Ke Daren?”

Ke Zhengming replied: “Answering back his majesty, this minister thought that this matter should be strictly investigated and should not be tolerated.”

The emperor nodded his head: “What Ke Daren said is reasonable. What is the pillar of the country? They are those who can share the country’s worries and seek happiness for the citizens. Not those who only pursue self-interest, abandon their duties, spend hours with women in the flower house. Those who are lazily enjoying richness at home and those who abandon the book of sage are not worthy to stay as an official. Not even a 9th-grade level official.”

Ke Zhengming said immediately: “The emperor is wise!”

“So, I leave this to Ke Daren to take care of. We must clean up the various ministries and departments in the capital as soon as possible.”

“This minister will comply!”

Chu Feng looked at the Emperor and Ke Zhengming while singing together. He knew that today’s impeachment will not happen today. And sure enough, after thinking about it, the emperor got up and retired.

The atmosphere in the capital changed overnight. The brothels business has been deserted. Even the restaurants were also affected. Those wealthy sons of the rich family did not come. How much money can they make with these ordinary people who only drink a little wine and eat some side dishes?

Without the extravagant people spending a lot of money, can it be said that the capital has been cleaned up?

Ke Zhengming was not such a foolish person. He reported back to the emperor the next day. He asked for permission to take the imperial physician to the various ministries and departments to check the health of the pillar of the country. If they have an unspeakable disease, they should be immediately removed them from their post and let them return to their home.

This request was immediately rebutted by many ministers, but the emperor agreed.

On the same day, there were many times more people from various ministries and departments who asked for leave than usual. Most of them had caught Ke Zhengming’s eyes. Sure enough, they didn’t even dare to show their faces o him.

When Ke Zhengming didn’t find those people, he didn’t say much. He directly put pressure on the magistrates Minister assigned in those departments. With that, those people finally showed up.

They thought that as long as they finished the job, they could slip away quickly.

But who would have thought that as soon as they entered the gate of the government, they would see Ke Zhengming and the imperial doctor sitting in the main hall waiting?

It was too late to slip away even if they wanted to.

“Oh, isn’t this Li Gongzi?” Ke Zhengming said with a small smile.

Young Master Li was stunned, but he was not too stupid to stand still. He walked a few steps forward and suddenly stopped again, then he clutched his stomach and said, “Ke Daren, I’m really sorry. This official has sudden stomach pain. I really can’t stand it, I will go back first, I’ll see you another day—”

Ke Shengming immediately said: “Stomach pain? It’s just right, Imperial Doctor Xu is here. Let him check it, there is no need to go back and forth of places.”

Young Master Li hurriedly waved his hand: “No, no, there is no need. How can I trouble the imperial doctor? I know he is very busy. I’ll go back and call another doctor.”
