Chapter 670 The Leader!
"Boss, are you kidding?"
"Are you reading out the appointment from above?"
Mu Shao was a little confused. While observing Gong Yuyan's expression, he asked Ning Fan.
"No!"
"Let me ask you, does the leader of Phoenix Terrace have the power to appoint the director?"
"Of course!"
Mu Shao nodded without hesitation, and then said: "Not to mention the appointment of the director, even the head of the Black Mansion and the deputy head are just a piece of paper."
"In that case, that's it."
Just when everyone was confused, Qin Chao came to Ning Fan in a hurry: "Shen... Ahem, Lord Leader, Zheng Tu committed suicide in prison."
"What?"
Everyone was shocked, and they didn't know whether they were shocked by the news from Qin Chao or the way Qin Chao addressed Ning Fan!
Ning Fan frowned and said in a deep voice: "What happened?"
"According to the jailer, Zheng Tu went on a hunger strike and faced the wall in prison after being interrogated this morning. When the jailer found something wrong, he had already committed suicide by taking poison in prison."
"Ridiculous!"
Ning Fan's eyes showed a bit of sternness, and he said in a deep voice: "A dignified fourth-rank official should be guarded by the jailer day and night. How could he be allowed to take poison under his nose?"
"Where did his poison come from!"
"Investigate thoroughly!"
"Yes!"
Qin Chao bowed respectfully and looked at Ning Fan with awe. He didn't expect that when they met in the morning, this person was still his subordinate, but in the blink of an eye, he directly rose to the sky and became his boss!
The future is limitless!
"Sir Qin, what did you call him just now?"
"The champion!"
Qin Chao looked at Gong Yuyan and his expression eased a lot. He explained softly: "From now on, Sir Shen Yu is the champion of our Phoenix Platform and will be in charge of three offices and one department."
"What!"
Gong Yuyan's pretty face was full of surprise, and Qin Hei and others stared at Ning Fan with their eyes wide open.
"Boss, is this true?"
"Take a look to see if it's fake?"
Ning Fan handed over the imperial edict in his sleeve. Suddenly, there were sounds of swallowing saliva. Qin Hei looked back and forth at the imperial edict and pinched his thighs: "Is this true?"
"Okay, stop talking nonsense. You guys, go to the prison quickly and check if there is anything strange."
"Lord Qin, block the news."
"Order the Bai Mansion to arrest Jingzhao Yin first. Now I have more important things to do. I will leave this to you to handle."
"That's right!"
Ning Fan looked at Mu Shao: "From now on, Mu Shao is the director of the arrest department, Qin Hei is the deputy director, and the rest of the arrest department members will have their salaries doubled."
"But...what about Director Gong?"
Qin Hei looked at Ning Fan with a bit of awe and complexity on his face.
"Gong Yuyan?"
"Let her go to the palace to accompany the empress for tea!"
"You!"
Gong Yuyan said angrily: "What do you mean by this?"
"Nothing, Gong is a princess, His Majesty has specifically instructed that you should not be in danger. Now my Phoenix Tower is in danger, you stay with His Majesty, it will be safe."
"Hiss!"
"Is Gong Si also familiar with His Majesty?"
"It's so familiar!"
Listening to the discussions of the people around, Gong Yuyan's eyes fell on Ning Fan. For some reason, she always felt that there was a familiar aura on him.
But looking at his face, he didn't know him, which was a bit strange.
"Qin Chao, summon the heads of the three prefectures and one department to come to see me."
"Yes!"
...
After a stick of incense.
The heads of the three prefectures and one department gathered in the meeting hall of Phoenix Tower.
"Meet the leader."
"No need to be polite!"
Ning Fan looked around. Among the people present, only Du Liufeng and Qin Chao were familiar with him. The rest were all A, B, C, and D, and he couldn't even call out their names.
"Where is the leader of the Bai Mansion?"
"Yes!"
The person who came out was a middle-aged man with a refined temperament. His eyes fell on Ning Fan. He was not too respectful, but just full of curiosity.
"What's your name?"
"Your subordinate, Cen Fu!"
"Although Zheng Tu is dead now, Jingzhao Yin is still there. Arrest him immediately. You will interrogate him in person. If you can't find out who is behind him within three days, you don't need to see me."
"Leader, why are you so sure that Jingzhao Yin has someone behind him?"
"Heh!"
Ning Fan showed a bit of sneer on his face, and said lightly: "Although Jingzhao Yin is a third-rank official, he is not considered a Beijing official. Although he is directly under the court, he does not participate in politics on weekdays."
"How can a Jingzhao Yin be aware of the situation in the court and the war on the front line? Know everything?"
"Yes!"
Cen Fu shut his mouth obediently, but Ning Fan continued: "In addition, there is another thing that needs to be done by the Bai Mansion!"
"Please give instructions, Master Kui Shou."
"Supervise all officials!"
Ning Fan's tone was somewhat unquestionable, and he said calmly: "From the royal family, the prime minister of the court, to the ninth-rank officials, as long as they are officials in Beijing, they must be closely monitored."
"What!"
When these words came out, not only was Cen Fu, the head of the Bai Mansion, shocked, but Du Liufeng and others beside him were also stunned. Supervise all officials?
When did Fenghuangtai have such power?
"Kui Shou, does your majesty know about this?"
"Yes!"
Ning Fan nodded calmly and said lightly: "This is also what your majesty meant. Now there are undercurrents in the capital. No one knows how many people in the court of Dali are working for Dayan."
"Since the Censorate and the Dali Temple can't control them, I will control them for them!"
"Yes!"
When Cen Fu heard that it was the empress's intention, he nodded and agreed without hesitation. The Phoenix Palace has three offices and one department. The Black Office is responsible for external affairs. Although the White Office has the power to supervise all officials, it is only a nominal supervision of the local supervision. As for the court officials in the capital, they dare not provoke them.
Du Liufeng looked at Ning Fan deeply, guessing in his heart that this was probably not the intention of your majesty, but the self-assertion of the new leader.
Ning Fan looked at the head of the Red Office again. He was a burly and serious-looking young man. He stood quietly by the side, facing Ning Fan's eyes, his face was calm.
"From now on, the Red Mansion has another duty besides guarding the palace!"
"Please make it clear, sir!"
"Search the house!"
Ning Fan grinned and looked at Chu Huaian, the head of the Red Mansion, with a playful look on his face: "From now on, as long as the White Mansion finds evidence of corruption, bribery, and treason among officials in the court, the Red Mansion will directly search the house, and then transport all the items in the treasury of the corrupt officials to the treasury of our Phoenix Mansion!"
"Yes!"
Chu Huaian's expression remained unchanged, but Du Liufeng, Cen Fu and others beside him had their eyelids twitching wildly. They are also confiscating the house?
Anyone who can stand on the dry shore, who is not in charge of power?
But now, Phoenix Mansion can directly cut them?
Does Phoenix Mansion have such power?
...
