His Royal Highness, he is plotting against me

chapter 286

Chen Yanzhi: I really don't like this!

"Your Majesty! Master Li refuses to accept this statement."

"In 25 years, Chen Yu Jiayu was transferred from Youzhou Governor's Mansion to Beijing as a scribe of the Ministry of Punishment. It has been 20 years since he was a small clerk to the current position of Zuo Shangshu step by step. Yeye, big or small, must be checked, and I will do my best for Dajing, and I will die! How can Master Li slander my minister so much? The minister refuses to accept!"

"My son, Xiao Chen, although he has no great talent, he still wholeheartedly serves His Majesty. He has worked hard even if he has no credit. As a parent, I don't want my son to be stigmatized like this!
If Mr. Li thinks that the position of the minister and the son of the minister is not right, and the virtue is not worthy of the position, you can ask the official department to investigate! "

Today is the day of His Majesty's ascension to the throne, and the brothers of the Chen family are all present at the court. Hearing this, they also knelt down with Father Chen and said in unison:

"The ministers are willing to accept the investigation by the Ministry of Officials!"

Their resumes are clear, and they are not even as insignificant as Chen Yanzhi said. They can stand the investigation, so they have nothing to fear.

The officials below did not see it, and the smile on the face of the new emperor sitting above had disappeared.

It's just a royal concubine, yet someone really dares to stand up and object!

If it weren't for the fact that she had just given birth and was unable to receive the golden book in person and hold the post-sealing ceremony, what he announced today would not be the decree of conferring the imperial concubine.

He owed her a bright matchmaker, a bright red wedding dress, and he was only waiting to return it to her at the empress ceremony.

But what are these people doing?
Put eye drops on father-in-law and brother-in-law in front of him?

The new emperor walked down the imperial steps and helped Chen Yanzhi himself.

"Master Chen, please hurry up! The Supreme Emperor and I both know what you and the young masters have done for my Dajing these years."

Chen Yanzhi hurriedly dodged, this was upward!
His Majesty made no secret of his preferential treatment to the Chen family, which shocked the courtiers.

Cen Shangshu looked calmly at Zheng Xiang who was standing in the front, thinking in his heart, should he be an eagle when he sees a rabbit?
Then, the new emperor looked at Li Xingyun who was kneeling on the ground, and said in a cold voice:

"In the eyes of Mr. Li, I am such an incompetent person? Do I have to rely on the crony of the women in the harem to stabilize my previous dynasty? The imperial concubine comes from a lowly background, and her virtue is not worthy? The Chen family is of no benefit to Dajing?"

Every time the new emperor repeated a question, all the ministers felt that their breathing was tight and tight.

Are the Li family crazy?

To encounter such a big misfortune on the day His Majesty ascended the throne is really lighting a lamp in a latrine——

court death!

"Your Majesty! I also thought Master Li's words were wrong!"

Mr. Zheng Yuan stood up and said in a deep voice:
"Since ancient times, the former dynasty and the rear palace have been clearly separated. Unless they have to, the rear palace must not interfere in the political affairs of the previous dynasty! It is His Majesty who selects ladies with excellent virtues from all over the country to recruit the harem, in order to extend the royal bloodline, and to cultivate a harmonious relationship with the emperor. Your majesty is like a Mingjun, for the sake of my Dajing Jiangshan forever! It is definitely not what Lord Li said, to strengthen the court!"

"Besides, the imperial concubine's mother family, her father is Mr. Chen Yanzhi, Zuo Shangshu of the Criminal Ministry! He has been in the Ministry of Criminal Justice for many years. He has devoted himself to his career and outstanding talents. He has solved countless major and important cases and cleared up the grievances of many people in the world? Mr. Li You might as well go to the east and west cities of Shangjing, those common people will not recognize you as the Minister of the Ministry of War, but they will definitely recognize Mr. Chen!"

After Mr. Zheng said this, he looked at Li Xingyun who was kneeling on the ground with contempt.

"The elder brother of the imperial concubine is even more promising at a young age. He was transferred to Dali Temple three years ago and is now serving as the prime minister of Yousi. Office of the household department.

Hiss... If I remember correctly, Chen Sicheng should also be a fifth-rank official, just on the same level as Lord Li, right? "

Li Xingyun looked displeased, and felt in his heart that it was because of His Majesty's support that the Chen family was promoted so quickly!

He was born and died at the border and made military exploits and was transferred back to Beijing. After so many years, he has only been promoted from a fifth-rank general to a fifth-rank military servant.

Why is that kid from the Chen family?
Not because of having a good sister!

However, Mr. Zheng is very scheming and has read countless people. Why can't he see Li Xingyun's thoughts?
Row!
You have military exploits, right?You were born and died for Dajing, right?
Don't be afraid of jumping beam clowns.

"Oh, look at my memory! Your Majesty, I remember that the imperial concubine has two elder brothers, one of whom has been to the northwest for five or six years and made great achievements in battle. Recently, he wiped out the Dada tribe that has been harassing my Liangzhou, so He was specially transferred back to Shangjing by the Supreme Emperor before the Longevity Festival to serve as the deputy commander of the West Day Camp, to protect the safety of Shangjing, right?"

Xindi: It seems that I have finally realized the joy of what his father said about treating the people below as Chinese cabbages...

Especially these Chinese cabbage will fight by themselves to show him.

There is no need for him to take action at all, someone will naturally become the knife in his hand, no wonder the world is looking forward to this supreme power and status.

So the new emperor smiled gently at Master Zheng: "What Master Zheng said is very true. If all the ministers in the court can be as clear-minded and selfless as Lord Zheng, then the Supreme Emperor and I will really feel at ease."

The new emperor almost said straight: I have seen through your little tricks a long time ago, you are all selfish people!
The ministers lowered their heads.

Mr. Zheng bowed his hands humbly to His Majesty, and looked at Li Xingyun, whose head was about to hang to the ground, with satisfaction, and stepped aside with a look of deep merit and fame.

Li Xingyun retreated dejectedly.

Although the new emperor was lenient and didn't blame him too much, Li Xingyun felt that he had lost all face.

And there was Li Xingyun, a young bird who was beaten, and Zheng Xiangyi openly stood in line with His Majesty, as if fully supporting all of His Majesty's will, and other officials who had their own thoughts also suppressed their own ideas just now.

The three of Chen Yanzhi, father and son, have been like transparent people since they shouted their innocence.

The visit of the ministers to the new emperor came to an end.

Although there was a small episode in the middle, the flaws are not concealed.

From today onwards, Dajing's emperor has officially changed, and those of them who are courtiers have also changed their masters.

After Chen Yanzhi and his son came out of the hall, they deliberately slowed down.

After a while, Zheng Xiang, who was surrounded by everyone, came out.

Chen Yanzhi hurriedly cupped his hands and said: "Thank you, Xiang Xiang Zheng, for your righteous words today, I am very grateful."

Zheng Yuan glanced at the Chen family father and son, the seriousness on his face faded slightly:

"Your Majesty Chen has said it before, and I'm just telling the truth. My Lord Chen and the young masters are indeed talented people. Besides, Your Majesty is not the one who is shaken by other people's slander."

Then Cen Shangshu also came over, and everyone chatted and laughed, and walked out of the palace gate together.

They are all from a poor family, and they often help each other on weekdays.

Although the nobles looked at it with disdain, they had to admit that, after Mr. Cui stepped down and Prime Minister Zheng came to power these years, the faction of the poor family became more and more powerful in the court...
