Jingtai Fenghua

Chapter 172 Cabinet Shutdown

Chen Xun fainted in a hurry, frightening the people in the cabinet.

Gao Gu was shouting to pinch Ren Zhong, and Shang Ren was young. At this moment, Chen Xun was almost leaning on Shang Ren. When Shang Ren heard Gao Gu's shouts, he immediately pinched Ren Zhong, and the pinch was very hard.

Chen Xuncai hummed.

Everyone felt relieved when they heard Chen Xun speak out.

Everyone started working together to help Chen Xun sit down on the chair next to him.

"I, my reputation has been ruined like this. This Lin Cunde is too ruthless, he is too ruthless!" Chen Xun leaned on the chair and said weakly.

When Wang Zhi and the others heard this, they quickly asked: "Did Lin Cunde concoct this matter?"

"Who else could it be if it wasn't him? Who else has such quick wit? What did Wang Ying give him to defend him like this? I, I and he are fellow villagers, and I also value this person, so why is this person so cruel? Chen Xun said anxiously.

"This son, this son!" Wang Zhi was also anxious and didn't know what to say.

"Come here, why do you do such a despicable thing?" Yu Shiyue also immediately shouted, how important is reputation to an official, especially those ministers who want to leave their names in history, who doesn't cherish their feathers?

When Yu Shiyue said what he had done, several cabinet ministers blushed. They were the ones who spread the rumor about Wang Ying in the first place. Lin Cunde was just fighting back for Wang Ying, but this counterattack was really unbearable for them.

At this moment, Gao Gu also wanted to know what the rumors were about him, so he asked Wang Zhidao: "What are the rumors about me? Are there any?"

Wang Zhi glanced at Gao Gu and thought for a moment. He didn't know whether he should say anything. What should he do if Gao Gu also fainted?

"But it doesn't matter!" Gao Gu saw that Wang Zhi was hesitating, so he clenched his fists and stared at Wang Zhi and said.

"Forget it, it's better not to listen. If you want to listen, it's better to go home and listen. These are not good rumors. It can be said that your reputation in this life will be ruined!" Jin Lian next to him immediately advised. Takaya said.

"What? What did this bastard say?" Gao Gu shouted loudly.

"Me and me too?" Shang Ran couldn't help but look at Jin Lian and the others nervously.

"You are the most cruel, and the cruelest!" Yu Shiyue sighed.

"Me, me, me!" Shang Ran's mind went blank at the moment. He was only in his early thirties, how could he live with those rumors all his life?

Rumors are very difficult to clarify. People who don’t know the truth don’t care whether they are true or false. They just like to talk and discuss nonsense.

"Forget it, forget it, you guys go back and listen to this, remember to call the doctor!" Wang Zhi thought for a while and decided not to say anything. What if something really happened?

"He, he, he!" Shang Ren was so anxious that he could not speak.

"I'm going to find him!" Gao Gu was also extremely angry, how could he arrange someone like this.

"Do you have evidence? If you don't have evidence, how can you find him?" Chen Xun had calmed down a lot and stared at Gao Gu and shouted.

Takagu stood there with his mouth slightly open, wanting to say something, but nothing came out.

"But, our reputation is all gone!" Peng Shi also looked at Chen Xun anxiously.

"Let's talk about it later, let's talk about it later!" Chen Xun waved his hand and said, now you just have no evidence. It's not that easy for you to kill Lin Cunde.

For example, Lin Cunde knew that they framed Wang Ying. He had no evidence and the only way was revenge. But revenge also requires methods. If you come directly to the door, it will definitely not work. You can only start from other aspects.

Nowadays, all five of their cabinet ministers have lost their reputations. Even if they explain every day, it is useless. People will still spread the word, and we don’t know what version will be derived in the future.

The five people were also disheartened at this moment. Gao Gu sat down and was stunned.

Wang Zhi saw them like this and sighed.

When they spread rumors about Wang Ying before, why didn't they think that one day they would also be spread rumors?

However, Wang Zhi still admired this little fellow in his heart. He actually found a countermeasure so quickly, and it made the cabinet minister lose face!

"Go back, go back, I have to go back!" Chen Xun struggled to stand up. At this moment, he had no intention of running errands. In this case, he might as well take leave and go home.

When Wang Zhi and others heard this, they could only help Chen Xun up.

Then the eight of them left the cabinet.

Along the way, the ministers they met looked at them strangely.

Even when they arrived at Zuoye Gate, the guards guarding the gate looked at them with strange eyes.

This kind of look made them feel uncomfortable and angry, and they didn't know who to vent their anger on.

Soon, they got on the carriage, and the carriage began to pull them home.

The old servants who drove the carriage also heard the rumors, but they did not dare to tell the master and could only remain silent. Passing by some crowded places, the people recognized their car and pointed at it.

Chen Xun originally wanted to open the curtain to get some air, but when he saw the people pointing in the distance, he had no choice but to let go of the curtain, closed his eyes and leaned on the carriage, letting out a long sigh.

After returning home, Chen Xun fell ill and had a high fever. He invited a doctor to prescribe medicine.

When Peng Shi returned home and heard about the rumors, he almost vomited blood. He was so angry that he threw away everything on the desk and fell on his chair.

After Shang Ren heard the rumors about himself, he fell ill and had a high fever.

Gao Gu immediately fainted, frightening his family so much that they quickly pinched him.

Miao Zhong went weak immediately. Although he was not fainted, he could not stand up. Miao Zhong was already eighty years old. Although there were the least rumors about him, he couldn't bear it.

Lin Cunde was at home, but he didn't know that his rumor had put all the cabinet officials in jail. Chen Xun, Gao Gu, Miao Zhong, and Shang Ren all fell ill, and Peng Shi also sat motionless in his study.

Zhu Qiyu learned the news quickly, especially after hearing that Chen Xun and others had all fallen ill and the cabinet was suspended.

Zhu Qiyu looked at Cheng Jing who came to report with disbelief.

"What did you just say?" Zhu Qiyu stared at Cheng Jing and asked again.

"I heard that Mr. Chen Ge, Mr. Peng Ge, Mr. Gao Ge, Mr. Miao Ge and Mr. Shang Ge all fell ill after hearing the rumors outside. Among them, Mr. Chen Ge, Mr. Gao Ge, and Mr. Miao Ge all invited The doctor is treating me, and I'm already bedridden!" Cheng Jing answered respectfully.

This news is not nonsense, their son came to the palace to ask for leave.

"This, this, rumors, what, what rumors?" Zhu Qiyu was surprised, thinking, are Lin Cunde's rumors so powerful? Directly knocking down five cabinet ministers, there is no minister in charge of the cabinet.

"I don't know this, I just heard that it is rumored all over the capital, and it is devastating to their personal reputation!" Cheng Jing hesitated for a moment, then said with his hands, he was too embarrassed to say it. .

"Where did this rumor come from?" Zhu Qiyu could only continue to pretend to be confused.

"I don't know. I haven't left the palace yet. I don't know anything about things outside the palace!" Cheng Jing shook his head and said.

"The imperial physician immediately went to the offices of several cabinet ministers for treatment. All the necessary medicinal materials are from the palace. Be sure to treat him well!" Zhu Qiyu immediately ordered Cheng Jing.

The admiration in my heart is that the rumors I burned are so powerful that I can knock them all down.

Then I started to get excited. If one of them can no longer serve as the cabinet, then I can choose a new person to join the cabinet. In the future, I can also get involved in the civil servants.

"Yes, slave, let's do it now!" Cheng Jing went out immediately.

Zhu Qiyu clasped his hands behind his back and started walking in the imperial study, thinking, very excited, cabinet ministers, although they dare not say they are monolithic, but when it comes to dealing with him, they are monolithic. This is not good, he must be inserted into it. Talent works.

This time is a good opportunity, let’s see what happens next.

"Rumors, rumors, can really hurt people!" Zhu Qiyu said, touching his forehead at this moment. He was a little scornful of Lin Cunde's approach before. How could such rumors help Wang Ying?

But now looking at the results, it’s really not possible!

"Let Lu Zhong go find out immediately what kind of rumors they are, register them all, and send them to me as soon as possible!" Zhu Qiyu thought of something and immediately ordered. He also wanted to hear what the rumors outside were. ? Is it different from what Lin Cunde said?

Lin Cunde, who was at home, didn't know until the afternoon that Chen Xun and the others were all sick. They were all recuperating at home. Moreover, he heard that the imperial doctors had all gone to see the doctor.

Lin Cunde was stunned when he heard the news from Xiaozhi. Are they all sick? Is it so powerful?

This is not the effect Lin Cunde wants. Lin Cunde just hopes that they will be tired of dealing with it, but if they are sick, why not? They are all honest officials!

"Are you all sick?" Lin Cunde stuttered and looked at Xiaozhi and asked.

"Yeah, yeah, they are all sick. Now the people are saying that they are afraid that His Majesty will check on them and are too scared to go to court!" Xiaozhi said very excitedly.

"No, me!" Lin Cunde looked at the excited Xiaozhi and couldn't help but feel guilty. Chen Xun, Gao Gu, and Miao Zhong are quite young. What if, what if, in this emergency, they are gone!

Then he had done something wrong. He didn't want them to die. He just wanted to divert people's attention and save Wang Ying.

But now, it seems to be out of my control.

Lin Cunde thought of this and couldn't help but touch his head and stood up, feeling very uneasy!

"Brother-in-law, no one is talking about my dad now. They are all talking about their affairs!" Xiaozhi was still very happy. It was enough that no one was talking about his dad. It was his brother-in-law who was so powerful that he changed the direction of the situation in one day.

"Oh, what a sin!" Lin Cunde looked up at the ceiling of the study helplessly at this moment. He really didn't expect that the consequences would be so serious.

Making them fall ill was not his original intention. He just wanted them to be tired of dealing with it. At the same time, he warned them that the rumors against Wang Ying should be stopped in moderation. Who would have thought that they would all be put down in the end.

Alas, it was my first time to spread rumors and I didn’t control my intensity well.
